A hand on your cheek and a kiss when he thinks you're asleep
I'm going to become a fashion designer and make millions of dollars, but dress like a hobo. With my millions I'm gonna get a really old beater for a car; I'm gonna put the best sound system on the market in that car, but I'll only listen to lo-fi music. I'm going to buy every new iPhone that comes out and get the best plans, but have all the calls transfer to my pager automatically. I'm going to be the most ill mannered, rude and prideful person one could ever be, then I'll see to it that I die at a young age, just so my headstone can read 'only the good die young.'

Praise for The Suitcase Entrepreneur
"Plenty of people want to travel the world and run a business from anywhere, but only a small percentage of them transform their dreams to reality. Of those who make the leap, few can explain it well. Natalie Sisson is the perfect exception: a suitcase entrepreneur with a track record, who can also show you exactly how it's done. Read this book and choose your own adventure."
Chris Guillebeau, NYT bestselling author of The $100 Startup
"Natalie mixes the very best of fun and inspiration with practical, actionable tools to get you set for a viable location independent business. While there is specific travel-related information, any entrepreneur will benefit from learning how to have a lean, flexible business."
Pamela Slim, author, business coach escapefromcubiclenation.com
"The Suitcase Entrepreneur" is a real gem: it contains more resources than I have seen in any other book of its type, and is the ultimate one-stop-resource guide for budding suitcase entrepreneurs. This is not a book that sketches out a dream and leaves you hanging, it's a solidly researched (yet readable) book that tells you exactly what that dream can look like and the exact tools you can use to get there, starting now. Best of all it's written by someone who is living this life herself, and knows what she is talking about. This is one you'll want in your pocket as you navigate your new (or growing) business, and to dip into as you build your travel lifestyle: I predict Natalie's book will become a must-read for people joining the ranks of suitcase entrepreneurs everywhere."
Marianne Cantwell, author of best seller Free Range Humans
"Natalie Sisson is someone who truly walks her travel talk: her typical day involves a combination of adventure, running her business, making meaningful friendships, conquering athletic feats and changing lives — and that's just a baseline. Natalie's radiant energy, drive, and desire to help others succeed make her a true leader in the location-independent community, and this book is the perfect jumping-off point for anyone who wants to create their own freedom in work and life. Filled with inspiring stories, reflection exercises, and Natalie's favorite tips and tech tools, the Suitcase Entrepreneur book is one resource you definitely want to make room for."
Jenny Blake, author, speaker and micro-business coach at JennyBlake.me
"While many people talk about creating freedom in their life, Natalie Sisson has done it – and then some! In this book, Natalie holds nothing back – she lays out in incredible detail (and I mean, all the nitty-gritty stuff you need to get going) how she has built a sustainable business while traversing the globe, living out of a suitcase. The workplace today is social, personal and virtual – read The Suitcase Entrepreneur and start living the dream today!"

you hear guitar chords and your finger twitches in the ghost of her skin; she reincarnates herself in the hollows between your thumb and forefinger, your forefinger and middle finger, but never anywhere near your ring finger nor your pinky — promises do not exist because she never married you. your hand blurs and you are not sure if it is from fear or lost of vision or both. you think of kitchens and kitchen knives and kitchen knives in hands and hands dripping in blood and blood on your second favourite shirt. that is when you blacked out, (never faint) and you thought, "please take me with her" because everything everything everything is black in darkness.
she scribbles on the back of receipts that goes with the condoms they bought and again and again it is always the same, "please give me a refund." her bangs are self-cut time to time and never admired as he musses it up with his hands when he forces her down and if she were to shave her scalp it still would not stop him from leaving his marks on her head.
she almost drowned once. walking away from a fight of which both parents cut ears off and shriveled rapid hearts. the water shivered across her shoulders darkly and her hands felt invisible under the murky surface. her body felt invisible. her eyes closed; she did not want to know where the soundless would take her.
she chokes and chokes and chokes until she frails about, arms moving but he would not take her and she drowns in him. they say it is more frightening than painful, this drowning business, but she hurts where her neck pulses, she hurts where she could not reach for anything with her hands, she hurts where she could not breathe.
he always wants a claim, wants property ownership, wants a right to what he does not have a right to. he fingers the collarbones of the trees like he would a lover, hoping to call it his no matter who it belongs to. he draws hands, he likes my hands the most. "they have knots in them," he says and i wonder if i am a tree to him, wonder if he loves me as much as he does them. he takes my hands aggressively until the blood is squeezed out of that region, takes me and squeezes me until my body becomes silent. but my blood seems to pulse and i know he hates it, despises the fact that i am still here to witness what he has done to me, still here for him to be angry at, still here to love him.
When he types he gets everything out of his head first. "To make it pure," he says. He constantly has to go back and fix his words and sometimes his words are jumbled and no one really knows what it means so he leaves it as it is. He always wants to be good, wants his thoughts to be the first bird of the spring.
"Charlotte," he starts, "I want to be real." I strum on my guitar and tell him I do not know how to make him real, I am not really sure if we are really real at all.
"I see you," he says earnestly, leaning in and breathing sweetly into my face. "I can smell the perfume you put on. I hear you when you sing." He kisses me and lingers. He lowers his voice and begins whispering hotly. "I feel you, I taste you. Am I not real?"
I cannot answer him, so instead I hum right on his mouth and both of our lips buzz with an intensity that would cause an earthquake for an ant had it lived on our faces. I ask him if that was real enough.
"For the moment," he says after thinking a little. "I wonder if we become real when we die." Well, I say. When you die, be sure to come back and tell me what it is like to be real.
He laughs and I smile, telling him pain was close enough to feeling real. He stops and looks at me. "No," he says commanding. He holds me. "No."
he has dark green eyes. his fingers are rather big, his knuckles are about one-and-a-half of mine. gets out his iPod, lets me look at it. plugs in one earbud, offers me the other nonchalantly. chooses a song, blasts it up. I have to hold the bud against my cheek. I wonder how he hears well. I awkwardly bend close for the maximum length of the cord. me: pause, scoot my chair over to the left. him: pause, scoots his chair over to the right. my favourite song, he says. I look at the title, make a note to remember it, forget it within a minute. we comment on the comments in his book, about his homework flashcards. his fingers are wide, freckles cascade lightly up his arm from his hand. I look at him. he has green eyes. I smile and so does he to ease the silence of our words. he studies, I look for songs in his iPod. I press "chasing cars", snow patrol. I like this, I say, and he glances up in surprise. didn't know I had it, said he. takes iPod from me, touches five stars. we listen. I sneak peaks at him from under my hair. his eyes are dark. he writes so childishly, a light scrawl from a careless first-grader. he stops and glances at me looking at his hands. I look up at him. he smiles, I smile. back to reading. I feel it. I feel a bursting sensation wanting to get out. I suppress it, keep it down. I calmly want him. I want him so bad. bell almost rings, I give him back his earbud and we look at each other. the close proximity doesn't seem to bother him at all and I delight in it. closes book, off to class.
He wiped his glasses on my shirt. "I feel like a rag," I complained. He put them back on and looked at me, turning his head to the side a little. "Maybe you should dress differently."
I told him I was his Goodwill. "Anything you do not want, please give it to me, I would gladly take anything of yours," I said and he laughed. A watch he thought was ugly, a money flower someone gave him and he had no use for, his ancient English papers he did not know he still had, a whistle, a book that he never bothered to read, a battered wallet — he gave them all to me. What I liked most were the old shirts he did not wear anymore and I slept with. Then one day he asked, "You are my Goodwill, right?" and I justified that and he then said, "There is something I do not want anymore, but I am not sure if you want it." But I said I did, and he hesitated before placing my now disowned heart in his hands and walking away with his head down.
"I still love you," he said. "I still care."
No, you do not. I wanted to scream at him. I wanted to slap him until he finally felt some emotion, until he felt anything. I suddenly wanted to hurt him until he was nothing left but a pile of ashes. Like the dirt he is.
"Fuck you," I said coldly. I turned to stone. He turned into fire. We resisted against each other.
My mother asked my grandma if she dreamed of my grandpa often.
Yes, she said simply and I thought, of course she does.
What does he say? my mother presses, and I wonder if this bothers my grandma. He is taboo, he is not mentioned in any case.
I don't know, I cannot remember, my grandma replied. They are only dreams after all.
"Excuse me," he said softly and it was as if her body was a stove and everything inside melted like chocolate as she turned to face him on the river steps. "Do you have the time?"
"Do you have the time," she repeated in some sort of a mix between a mumble and a praise. Do I have the time for what? I do have time for a date, I do have time to give you my number. "Nine thirty-six", she replied, and then spotted the clock tower in his direct line of view.
"Thank you," he said and went back to listen to the band playing on the floating stage. He listened with his eyes, which were wide open and his hands gestured as if he were the conductor. His ears tuned to the music, a paperback book stuffed in his back pocket, which he was reading earlier and sitting squarely on now. She did not catch a glimpse of the title.
She imagined scooting in closer and making small talk, and at the end of the show she would produce her lovely black pen out of her bag to scribble elegantly her number on his skinny hand. "You're cute," she would say with a wink. "Call me if you need the time again." And then walk the other way. She would glance over her shoulder to find him looking down at his hand in amazement.
But she stayed put and so did he, and at the end of the show they departed ways. All she had was the memory of his soft voice saying, "Excuse me."
"But he's not in any of my classes. He's in Biology with Anna." Anna was a freshman, and Curly and Grace were sophomores.
"Aren't you taking Biology?" I asked kind of confused.
"No, I took that last year."
There was a little silence.
"Well, then I'm sorry your man isn't smart enough to be with you," I said, meaning it both ways. She laughed.
"Shut up and give them back to me," Kohana said with surprising viciousness.
He backed up a step, surprised. "Whoa! She got guts."
"That's what will spill out of your body if you don't give them back!" Kohana continued, feeling brave.
Shino looked at her in amazement and replied saracastically, "You wouldn't dare!"
Kohana swiftly socked him in the stomach, sending him a few staggering steps backward.
"You-you…You punched me!" he gasped.
"I would've slapped you but maybe that's too girly!" Kohana replied.

About Barry
Originally this was our winter escape when we lived in Virginia, however, we moved to Tucson, Arizona and decided to turn this into a Vacation Rental. The reason it is so well furnished and equipped is that it was our home away from home for several years.
Barry purchased this condo in 2003
Why Barry chose Waikoloa Beach Resort
Absolutely the perfect location. Everything within walking distance. Only better location is million dollar plus property across Waikoloa Beach Drive, 2 minutes closer to the beach, but not closer to anything else.
What makes this condo unique
Location, location, location, and views, views, views plus an almost botanical garden quality gated complex with first rate amenities.

Atlanta-based CNN today named former NBCUniversal president Jeff Zucker as president of the worldwide network, replacing Jim Walton.
Zucker will take over in January and report to CEO Phil Kent.
The New York Times broke the story of Zucker's arrival on Tuesday. His name was posed as a likely candidate in the Times after Walton announced his pending departure in July.
Zucker, who will remain in New York and not be based in Atlanta, built up NBC's "The Today Show" as executive producer in the 1990s when Katie Couric was a co host. He was president of NBC Entertainment in 2000, then moved up the ranks, eventually taking over for all of NBCUniversal in 2007.
Although the basic cable networks owned by NBCUniversal such as Bravo, Syfy and USA thrived under his watch (as well as MSNBC), the broadcast network suffered an ignominious fall in the prime-time ratings. The clumsy handling of the Jay Leno/Conan O'Brien situation sealed his fate. He left NBC in 2010. More recently, he has worked closely to produce Couric's new talk show, which debuted this fall.
Zucker will be taking over an operation in flux. Walton was able to turn CNN into an impressively profitable worldwide operation, with its digital and international operations growing rapidly. But the primary TV network has struggled in the ratings this year as consumers of straightforward hard news have moved elsewhere. Ratings in the spring dropped to their lowest point in at least two decades and the station frequently falls far behind more partisan cable news networks MSNBC and leader Fox News.
"Just because you aren't partisan doesn't mean you can't be exciting," Zucker said during a press conference. "We need more passion and fans. That shouldn't be mistaken for partisanship."
'CNN does not have an identity problem," Kent added. "We've had execution problems."
Zucker wasn't ready to offer specific critiques of current CNN talent. "That would be unfair," he said, noting he just joined the team.
Bill Carroll, a TV analyst for Katz Media Group, which provides services to TV and radio stations, said CNN needs a leader who has both news and entertainment experience. Zucker fits that bill.
Zucker's boldest move ultimately led to his departure from NBC: a decision to give Leno in 2009 the 10 p.m prime-time slot five days a week. This was seen as a budgetary move to save money since Leno is far cheaper to operate than prime-time dramas. But it was also seen by the creative Hollywood community as a slap in the face, a surrender of valuable 10 p.m. real estate. The backlash was severe. What's worse, Leno didn't help NBC's fortunes in prime time and undermined O'Brien's presence at 11:35 p.m. on "The Tonight Show."
Zucker decided to give Leno his 11:35 p.m. slot again and pushed O'Brien back to 12:05 a.m. O'Brien recoiled and left for TBS. Leno got his "Tonight Show" slot back in 2010, but his name was tarnished and his ratings have never quite recovered.
"If that move had worked, Zucker would have been seen as a visionary," Carroll said. "It would have set the standard for broadcast TV at 10 p.m. It didn't pan out." He did give kudos for Zucker growing the basic cable side.
But he said Zucker has his work cut out for him with CNN. "It's hard to turn a cruise ship in the middle of a river," he said.
TV critics who have followed Zucker over the years are not exactly huge fans. Take Tim Goodman of Hollywood Reporter, who opened his column today with the lines: "Holy hell, Jeff Zucker just can't be kept down, can he? There might not be an executive who has failed upward so swiftly in decades."
CNN's overall brand reliance on being an even-handed news source clashes with efforts to bring in regular viewers with entertaining personalities. It has made small moves with the recent hirings of Anthony Bourdain and Morgan Spurlock on weekends starting in 2013.
"There's no doubt I made mistakes in the entertainment world," Zucker said. "I own those. I feel real excited to return to daily news both on television and in digital."
As for the digital side, Zucker added, "we have to continue to leverage that digital strength and better integrate it with other platforms."
CNN TV's long-time problem has always been that it's a draw for breaking news but not so much when it's relatively quiet. Zucker said the competition isn't just MSNBC and Fox News, but other basic cable networks. He didn't say any specific networks but they are presumably those which chase similar audiences such as Discovery, History Channel and A&E with their slate of popular infotainment shows such as "Pawn Stars" and "Duck Dynasty."
Kent noted that CNN has tried programs about sports, fashion and technology. "There are a lot of subject matters we don't address as much," Kent said.
"News is more than just politics and war," Zucker said. "We're not going to stray from the journalism that is the hallmark of CNN and the breaking news that CNN has owned for 32 years. But at the same time, we live in a world where nonfiction programming comes in many forms."
Zucker's work with Couric has bolstered his reputation in handling talent. Insiders hope he will be able to improve CNN's ability to work with its existing pool of personalities and anchors.
UPDATE: A source told me CNN president Tom Johnson in 1997 actually gave Zucker the CNN-US presidency job in 1997 but Zucker was diagnosed with colon cancer at the time so Johnson hired Rick Kaplan instead.

How do these tools keep getting hired? It's like the NBA where guys have coached unsuccessfully & still get re-hired 5 times or more.

This will likely be the end of CNN. They scraped the bottom of the barrel with him. CNN has not been good since Ted Turner owned and ran it!

For any of us that hoped that CNN would follow the CNN International, BBC News, and BBC World News model, that's out the window. I wonder how long before Mr. Zucker has his hosts giving away prizes when people call into their talk shows? Ugh.

CNN will only get even worse now, not better. This guy is from NBC and will take them even further into the "liberal mud". Their bias will shine even brighter, and be more obvious! Somebody there has a "deathwish" apparently!
November 29th, 2012
12:53 pm
My goodness, some of you people are so sad. Must everything be a liberal plot out to get you and ruin everything that is good in the world?
CNN is in last place because facts are sometimes partisan and people understand this. Sticking to the he said-she said model but with bells and whistles is still doing that which earned you far last place. Sometimes it is the Democratic Party's fault. Sometimes it is the Republican Party's fault. Other times it is both, or neither, and CNN needs to be able to distinguish between these instances. That is how the stay factual. In other way and they are just inviting people to go elsewhere.
Clearly Time-Warner is at fault here. They are calling the shots instead of letting the person in charge do what is needed to return to the top. They are basically doing to CNN what they did to the Atlanta Braves, Hawks, and Thrashers.

Aside from his operational successes and failures @ NBC etal Zucker is also a well known unrepentant lib.
If his ideology bleeds over into CNN's programming, which everyone seems to think has been moving to more middle-of-the-road, they're doomed. MSNBC already has a firm grip on the hard left audience.
November 29th, 2012
1:21 pm
CNN's problem is that news is everywhere now. Web, TV, radio, web again, phones, you name it. Information is everywhere and by definition, nowhere specific. There's little need for a specific go-to news channel on a daily basis, and if Fox and MSNBC didn't have their partisan side, they'd have NO side at all and no audience.
Fox knows this weakness and stuffs its anchorwomen in as little as possible because lots of eye candy means it does not actually what news is happening. I don't watch Fox news. But as a man, I often hear male coworkers talking about what the anchorwomen are wearing, or not wearing. They're watching very closely. So apparently it works. Tune in for the short skirt and boots; stay for the whole hour.
So find the ratings and follow them backward. What does MSNBC do (or not do) to achieve the same result? What does CNN do? Or TWC? CNN can imitate the success or differentiate. Choose one path.

I had heard that CNN was not biased anymore. So I watched for two weeks as CNN like a lap dog, promoted the white house cover up story of Benghazi. CNN first discovered evidence on the grounds, but quickly moved to cover up the story. They had a special story explaining to the Muslim viewers that a movie deriding Mohammed should not insite riots and that it was not state sponsered. I guess CNN missed the attack took place on 911, and there was nor riot,
only organized terrorists attacking our ambassador and staff. So CNN covered it up until the election was over, and now it's a sex scandal, and not a failure in policy or failure in backbone to protect Americans. CNN is liberal biased! This guy will just make it more obvious.

Hot digity, now we can watch Today, Yesterday, and Tomorow. But I'm not waiting for a Zucker-quake at Fox News. More like a Zucker sucker from Kent and Bewkes while trying to determine what to really do about CNN.

So here's a weird sentence. "Walton was able to turn CNN into an impressively profitable worldwide operation, with its digital and international operations growing rapidly. But the primary TV network has struggled in the ratings this year as purveyors of straightforward hard news have moved elsewhere."
I think you mean viewers, not purveyors.
But really, CNN hasn't provided straight, hard news in forever. CNN International does that, sometimes. Too bad they're bringing in the guy who thought SyFy was a good idea – a clear hint he doesn't care about a channel's direction, and will do anything to chase ratings. So, more of the same for CNN, it looks like.

Is he one of the few people who Olbermann didn't fall out with? If so, he would be VERY smart to bring in Keith O, not the Keith O at the end but the one at the beginning of his tenure on MSNBC, he was just a guy who made the news fun. He never really was liberal, but his stance against war criminal Bush had the low-IQ msm painting him that way, then he ran with it.
Other suggestions: Make a show like Chris Hayes' weekend show. It is slightly slanted, but much more balanced and intellectually stimulating than most other shows on MSDNC. Also, bring in Tavis Smiley and allow him to provide a counter to White House shill Al Sharpton. Smiley is independent in his thinking and is one of the best interviewers out there. Also, the variety show he has on PBS could easily translate to CNN and replace Piers Morgan. Also, snatch Cenk Uguyr away from Current. He is not afraid to call out the establishment. Finally, bring in Glenn Greenwald, maybe the most prolific free thinker around right now, and he too is not afraid to call out the establishment That is what so many people–on both sides of the aisle–are looking for right now, someone who is not a mouthpiece for either party, but a straight shooter.
That is the niche CNN needs to carve out for its primetime programming–the boat rockers, the nonpartisan (not the same as non-ideological) boatrockers.

Face it! What's really needed at CNN is a news network filled with good ole heterosexual racists. O'Brien, Anderson, and the others just don't do it for the new generation. Let's have something we can get our teeth into.

One thing is for sure. CNN can now say they have the "ugliest" president in network news. No doubt about that! I'm beginning to think that is one of the requirements at CNN, even the ladies. The only one who doesn't fit that mold is Robin Meade and she would be a much better fit at FoxNews. What is wrong with her? Get over there now!

Wolf Blitzer openly commented on whether Obama had a "good" day or "bad" day during the campaign; and even went so far as to say, when the Akin scandal broke, that it was a "good" day for the Obama campaign. "We need more of those…" Wolf Blitzer. Really?
I am square in the middle INDEPENDENT, and found the editorializing by the main anchor to be unprofessional. Akin is disgusting. Period…I just want news/"facts"!!! That's all. I even googled where to find the most unbiased facts about anything. No luck. I'm depressed…
Now that Zucker will be in charge, it will be more "infotainment" and pandering for ratings.
Do we now have to rely on CSPAN for anything clear, transparent, and in real time? If that is actually what we ever get to really see?….

From the looks of things, we're living in that day and age of political correctness, as well as irrelevant and sugar-coated news stories, and the "dumbing down" mentality… and it seems that presenting the facts in news stories, and presenting both/multiple sides of a story is labled as a mainstream media "taboo".
It still remains to be seen if CNN can make a major turn-around under Jeff Zucker. We don't know if CNN would even want its founder Ted Turner back… or if Turner would even be interested in returning to the house he built.

Swag Tester: Win Two Modern Warfare 2 Pens + A Crispy Hat!
Swag Tester! Where the hell has it been? Well, I'm busy. And lazy. They call me "Blazy" around the office. Not because I'm busy and lazy (that's just a coincidence) but rather because I am a huge fan of Blaze from "American Gladiators." The original one, not the one that was on NBC the last couple years -- forget that noise. Wait, what were we talking about?
Right! Swag Tester! Commenter beanzfury won the last prize package, a copy of King of Fighters XII and a Kyo figure. I'm sure that beanzfury is clearing a place on the mantle as we speak. This time, we're offering one lucky commenter a pair of Modern Warfare 2 pens.
"Just pens?" you're saying, ungratefully. "That's it?" you're adding, unnecessarily. Well, yes, but there's a twist. These pens light up. In the picture above, you can see one pen lit and the other unlit. Trust me, when you get both of them in your hand, one of two things happen. Either you pretend to be that guy who brings planes in at the airport, or you have a sudden urge for a lightsaber war. Evan Moore demonstrates both phenomena below.
To win the pens -- oh, what the heck, I'll throw in a Crispy Gamer hat, too. We ordered 10,000 of these things, and after handing them out to everyone in the New York office, we've got about 9,986 left. So we can spare one of these bright orange ballcaps, one of which is modeled here by Crispy CEO Chris Heldman (along with his watch, for some reason):
So, to win the pens AND a hat, leave a comment below with your answer to the question, "What is your favorite in-game gadget?" 'Cause the pens remind me of the flashlight from Shadow Complex. (Also, sometimes it is hard to think of a question that has something to do with the giveaway, OK? So BACK OFF!!!) Rules: There are no wrong answers; winner is picked at random from eligible commenters; only U.S. residents can win; you can't win two Swag Testers in a row. Whew. So anyway, good luck!

Lady Gaga 's been slowly re-emerging into the public spotlight since undergoing hip surgery last February. Her latest appearance has her looking ready to hit the stage again.
E! Online has posted a photo of the singer rocking a floral bikini top, white casual pants, shades and a floppy white hat as she enjoys some sun on a Mexican beach. A smiling Gaga also proves it's never the wrong time for heels, carrying her pair one in each hand, as well as an icy beverage.
Gaga revealed last week that she's back in the studio, presumedly working on her long-awaited next album, ARTPOP . She posted a photo on her LittleMonsters.com website of her and super-producer Dallas Austin together in the studio. No word yet, though, on when the album will arrive.

(WHAS11) -- Six months after tornadoes ravaged the town of Henryville, residents share what they've learned and the progress that's been made since that fateful day.
A ravaged school is rebuilt, a broken town is brought together and a piece of history is put in place.
Great strides have been made in Henryville, Indiana six months after an EF4 tornado tore the town apart.
"Everybody has gone the second mile," said Henryville resident Sue Vest. "Its just brought out the best in everybody."
But the storm that tore Henryville apart is the same storm that brought the community together.
But there is still much work to be done.
"I think patience and persistence are two things that we had to bear in mind to get to this point and I think those values remain with us," said Father Steven Schaftlein of St. Francis.

Reincarnation Survey
What Are Your Beliefs?
Reincarnation is a subject that has long been a staple in Eastern beliefs and has been gaining more acceptance in the West over the past two decades. Many people in Western countries are beginning to state that the concept of physical life after death is not a contradiction to their views of Christianity. In fact, some point to the Bible as a reference:
"Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men. For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night. Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep; in the morning they are like grass which groweth up. In the morning it florisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down and withereth."
We invite you to participate in this unscientific poll, the results of which will be posted here, soon. Thank you.

IBM has launched a new initiative called Smarter Commerce that leverages the company's software and services experience to provide real-time analysis of online consumer behaviors around marketing campaigns and to offer insights around a sales campaign's aims and budgets. For the initiative, IBM has deployed 1,200 personnel for e-commerce consulting services and put together a training program for its business partners and clients. The move follows $2.5 billion worth of e-commerce vendor acquisitions by the company over the past few years, according to Computerworld.
In integrating parts of acquisitions such as Coremetrics, Sterling Commerce and Unica, IBM looks to take aim at a $70 billion market, says VentureBeat. The company's announcement gives it a head start on HP, which is expected to announce a similar initiative this week and positions the company to react to the changing dynamics of commerce by merging cloud analytics and social media with real-time customer relations.
In a blog post, Steve Hamm, an IBM communications strategist, said:
This big shift in how customers connect brings profound consequences-redefining the term "commerce." What used to be seen as a flow of goods from manufacturers through a distribution chain to customers has become an interactive feedback loop, where consumers, producers, distributors, the media, and marketers all have new roles to play. Smart companies see "selling" not so much as a traditional function of their organization but rather as an ever-evolving set of services they perform for their customers-in concert with their business partners. "Done well, when you market to individuals, it's not an intrusion but truly is a service to the consumer," [Craig] Hayman says.

U.S. monitoring 11 sites for possible discrimination against Muslims
(Photo: Rally against proposed Muslim cultural center and mosque near World Trade Center site in New York ,August 22, 2010./Jessica Rinaldi)
The U.S. Justice Department has said it is monitoring 11 cases of potential land-use discrimination against Muslims, a sharp increase in cases under a federal law designed to protect religious minorities in zoning disputes.
In a report on discrimination against mosques, synagogues, churches and other religious sites, the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division said on Tuesday it has monitored 18 cases of possible bias against Muslims over the past 10 years.
Eight of those have been opened since May, around the time when plans for a Muslim community center and mosque near the former site of the World Trade Center in lower Manhattan seized media attention and caused a national political uproar. "This fact is a sober reminder that, even in the 21st century, challenges to true religious liberty remain," the report said.
The report made no mention of the planned Muslim center in New York, known as Cordoba House. A Justice Department spokeswoman declined to discuss monitoring activities but stressed that no investigations were under way in those cases.
Read the full story here. Here is the link to the Justice Department report.

Three people -- a woman, her boyfriend, and his twin brother -- were killed and a 15-year-old girl critically injured when the woman driving the car they were in lost control of it and struck three parked vehicles in the Far South Side Roseland neighborhood Saturday morning.
About 8:30 a.m., the 2008 Kia Optima was headed northbound on State Street at a high rate of speed in a residential area near 102nd Street, according to police News Affairs Officer John Mirabelli. A 20-year-old woman was behind the wheel and her 22-year-old boyfriend was seated next to her. Behind him was his twin brother and seated next to the twin brother was a 15-year-old girl, Mirabelli said. It was not yet known what relation the girl had to any of the other three.
At 102nd and State streets the driver lost control of the Kia and struck three parked vehicles -- a 2007 Buick Lacrosse, a 2005 Toyota Camry, and a 2004 Buick Rendezvous SUV, Mirabelli said. The Lacrosse was sent into a light pole which it wrapped around, the Camry was pushed into the middle of the street and the Rendezvous was pushed up against a curb. No one was in any of those three vehicles at the time, Mirabelli said.
The four people in the Kia had to be extricated with the Jaws of Life by Chicago Fire Department personnel, according to Mirabelli.
The 20-year-old driver was dead on the scene, Mirabelli said. She remains unidentified Sunday evening, according to the Cook County Medical Examiner's office.
Her boyfriend was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn,where he was pronounced dead, and his twin brother was taken to John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County, where he was pronounced dead, Mirabelli said.
The twin brothers have been identified as Deabloe Banks and Diapolis Banks, 20, of the 200 block of West 109th Place, according to the medical examiner's office.
The 15-year-old girl was taken in serious to critical condition to Christ Hospital, according to Fire Media Affairs.
Investigators from the police Major Accident Investigation Unit continue as of Saturday afternoon to investigate the crash.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- Despite his opposition to the Affordable Care Act, U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) said he complied with the health care law on Thursday, signing up his family for health insurance through the District of Columbia exchange, the designated provider for members of Congress.
"I've been in a bad mood ever since," Paul told reporters in Louisville on Thursday.
Paul said his out-of-pocket cost to cover his wife and three sons is $20,000, four times the estimated $5,000 he says he paid for his family's health insurance five years ago.
Paul said he spent a frustrating two hours on the DC Exchange website.
"I went through all of my information and then I clicked the sign up button - which I wasn't very happy because of the price - but it didn't sign up and I lost all my data," Paul said. "And I had to start all over again and finally got through."
Paul said website glitches are just the start of "Obamacare's" problems, even in Kentucky which is held up as a example of where the law is working.
"Forty times more people have been cancelled than have signed up (in Kentucky), Paul said. "That can't be a success."
During a question and answer session at Captains' Quarters Yacht Club, Paul agreed with a Kentucky physician who argued that Republicans have not effectively countered the Obama administration's messaging on the law.
Paul said he wants a "unified Republican spokesman" to communicate the Republican message.
"Everyday when there's a press conference and (White House Press Secretary) Jay Carney gives his opinion, we should have a press conference immediately after there with our opinion," Paul said.
Paul also previewed his Friday address to the Detroit Economic Club, a plan to help the bankrupt city via targeted tax cuts and less bureaucracy. Paul said "Economic Freedom Zones" could help impoversished areas across the country, including parts of Louisville and eastern Kentucky.
Paul reiterated his endorsement of U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell in both the 2014 Senate primary against Matt Bevin and against the presumed Democratic frontrunner, Alison Lundergan Grimes.
Several weeks ago, Paul's description of Bevin as a "good, honest, Christian man," contrasted the McConnell campaign's depiction of Bevin as a "con man."
Later, McConnell campaign manager Jesse Benton, who is married to Paul's niece, suggested that Paul had misspoke and did not know Bevin, well.
"I try to take it with a grain of salt the things that (Benton) says," Paul explaine. "He's doing his job, and I'm trying to present my position the best I can."
Paul said while he does not think the GOP primary is particularly close, he guesses that the general election is fairly close."

Spice up your life
May 1, 2008 - Jane Mort
A couple weeks ago I wrote about the interesting herb kitchen display at the Philadelphia Flower Show and included an unusual recipe for Lavender Cookies.
Not mentioned at that time were spices, which go hand-in-hand with herbs. In addition, spices are said to be rich in antioxidants, the latest essential element for good health.
So, for the sake of equal opportunity, and to share information I recently received from McCormick, here are some ideas for spicing up your life.
Cinnamon — Next time you make french toast, pancakes, waffles or muffins, try adding 1/2 to 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon to the batter.
Ginger —Quench your thirst with Ginger Lemonade. Add 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger to 1 quart freshly squeezed lemonade or lemonade from a mix.
Oregano —For a twist on the typical grilled cheese, prepare the sandwich with sliced mozzarella cheese, sliced tomatoes and 1/4 teaspoon oregano leaves.
Red peppers —Sprinkle store-bought or homemade hummus or guacamole with paprika. Or, add a kick by stirring in 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper or crushed red pepper.
Rosemary — Dress up ready-to-bake rolls. Just before baking frozen dinner rolls or ready-to-bake rolls, brush tops with olive oil, then sprinkle with crushed rosemary leaves and sea salt before baking.
Thyme —Wake up your taste buds with Herbed Scrambled Eggs. Beat 1/8 teaspoon thyme leaves into 2 eggs before scrambling.
Yellow curry —For a new twist to chicken salad, add a dash of curry powder along with nuts, fruits or chopped apples.

Despite an unusually wet year, South Georgia farmers are optimistic about the cotton harvest that's now underway.
Planting was delayed in the spring due to rain but Turner County Extension Agent Scott Utley says this year should still turn out to be good.
"We've had some big rainfall events and we were worried about them at
one time that it would leech out our fertilizer and cause some drowned
out areas, which it has," Utley said. "Overall, it actually benefited this year's
Utley says about 10 to 15-percent of the cotton crop has already been harvested.

Question: What would a proper cool-down
entail and why is it important to do a 'cool-down'?
Answer: Another
very often neglected component of racing and training is recovery. Many times after finishing a race we spend 30
minutes to an hour hanging out at the finish line with family and friends
sharing stories from the just completed suffer fest. Or we finish a hard training session at home,
jump in the shower and then rush to consume large quantities of food. What we�re forgetting is the recovery part of
a race or training session. A good
recovery can have a dramatic impact on your ability to train or race again the
next day, or how much energy you have later in the evening, or even how sore
your muscles get post workout.
we exercise the muscles in our body become sore. Why do our muscles get sore? Exercise causes a couple different things to
occur on the cellular level. First is
the wear and tear on the muscle fiber. Using a muscle will create very minute micro-tears in the muscle fiber
membranes. In response, our bodies
increase the blood flow to the muscles which brings proteins and nutrients
needed to repair the damaged cells. However this increase in fluid puts pressure on the nerve endings which
in turn causes the pain we feel post exercise.
second reason our muscles get sore is the damage caused by the release of
free-radicals. When free-radicals are
released during exercise they attack the walls of the muscle cells damaging the
membranes, increase protein breakdown, and damage the mitochondria. This also contributes to muscle inflammation
and soreness.
third reason our muscles get sore is the effects of cortisol. Cortisol is released during exercise to help
our body utilize various sources of energy. This process, however, causes damage to muscle tissues, increases
protein breakdown in the muscle cells, and blocks the entry of amino acids into
the cells for protein synthesis. Again,
more damage to the muscle cells causes more inflammation which increases the
pain and soreness we feel post exercise.
what does this mean for recovery? A good
recovery or cool-down can speed up the amount of time it takes to return to
your normal pre-race or pre-workout state. The faster you recover, the sooner you�ll be able to do hard training
again. The faster you recover, the
better you will be for the next day of racing in a multi-day stage race. But how? By doing a light high-cadence spin after a race you are increasing circulation
which is bringing needed nutrients and energy to your depleted and damaged
muscle cells. Increased circulation will
also speed up the removal of the lactic acid in your blood stream by moving it
to the liver where it is reconverted back to glucose. And finally a light spin can also reduce the
inflammation and swelling of the muscle tissues which in turn reduces
a "recovery drink� within 30 minutes of exercise will also speed up
recovery. Immediately following
exercise the muscle cells in our bodies are extremely sensitive to insulin. Insulin regulates the transport of glucose
from our blood into our muscle cells. When there are sufficient carbohydrates in our stomach, glycogen
replenishment will happen at a faster rate during this time immediately
following a workout. However, this
insulin sensitivity goes away after 30 minutes. So consuming a recovery drink as soon as your race is over will have a
bigger impact than eating a large pasta dinner two hours later.
what does all this mean in practical terms?
- After
you cross the finish line go immediately to your car and grab your recovery
drink or some kind of food that is full of carbs and protein. Eat!
- Change
out of your wet sweaty race clothes into dry riding clothes.
- Jump
back on your bike and ride around for 20-30 minutes in a nice easy gear with a
low heart rate and a high cadence (95-105rpms).
- Now
you can visit with family and friends and hang out enjoying more good food and
the post-race celebration.
good cool-down and proper recovery is easy to do, feels good on the legs, and
can make you stronger and faster for tomorrow�s race or your next day of

Aug. 18, 2013 sailing from Venice to Barcelona: As retired New York teachers now living in Fla. almost 20 years, we have many choices of cruise lines and itineraries. We thought we would never vacation in the summer, but we do want to get away from the heat of Fla., so we chose our vacation by the ports, not the cruise line. We were pleasantly surprised by what HAL gave us: great service, excellent and abundant food choices, our "wish-list" itinerary, comfortable king-size bed & verandah; Oneg Shabbat wine, challah, etc., attentive staff. The location guide, Tom, was offered a wealth of information, history and suggestions for places to visit on shore.
Too bad we only had one day at sea! We used our time wisely and were off the ship at every port at 8:00 AM - walking every city at least 3-5 miles each day. We used Cruise Critic Message Boards to find groups to join in Dubrovnik, Naples and Rome.
We used the transfers offered by HAL for Florence and Barcelona. Then were were able to navigate on our own. We would highly recommend those transfers to all passengers.
Regarding our flight connections: Paying extra for Custom Travel, we were NOT pleased with our plane seats and had to negotiate better ones on our own, but HAL's handling of our transfers from the airport to the ship and back again were OUTSTANDING. They were efficient, prompt and competent. We were ushered to clean buses and helpful and knowledgeable personnel who got us to the airport and/or ship without any issues. They should be commended for their precise handling of passenger transfers. This is worth whatever they charge.
On a scale of 1-10, my husband and I rate the cruise a 9.3.
Lacking: FREE WIFI, better shows, better and less costly excursions with more precise descriptions of the excursions. Why do cruise lines keep secrets....like when the formal nights are, etc.
Would we go on another HAL cruise? Yes.

If you're planning to make a big purchase this holiday season, or anytime in the near future, it is important to know your credit score. People with lower scores are generally penalized with higher interest rates that can add thousands of dollars to the purchase price.
So what can you do to increase your score? According to the folks at Quizzle.com, a free credit reporting website, it all starts with knowing your number. An estimated 25% of Americans have never even checked their score. Quizzle experts say it is also important to pay bills on time, every time. They also suggest disputing any inaccuracies you find on your credit report, and avoid applying for several new lines of credit in a short time. That includes applying for store credit cards at might get you a discount in the short term.

Have been really busy trying to clear work- both school and freelancing that piled up during CNY when I naively thought I could take it easy and have a break. What a joke.
Anyways, just a quickie? Group projects have begun, and tutorials have been lively. Lectures and modules on a whole this semester are much more enjoyable, and despite early mornings (that I'm getting used to), everything is fine.
University isn't what I thought it would be, but there are still many hidden gems, if only I had the courage or took the time and effort to find them. I'm sure I'm not the only poor soul out there. Cannot wait for the May holidays where I can finally get started on a couple of things.
One major thing this, and maybe last year- just cause I can scrape time out, and just cause I want to do things doesn't mean other people are willing to scrape time out too. Things are just on prioritised differently for all of us. What is important to me ain't important to you. This makes me very sad because I really want to accomplish some things, wanna do some stuff, but sometimes even if I give a loud call nobody fking responds and I'm just like, am I really stuck in this place where there is no one like me? Or have I been looking in the wrong places all this while? This is pretty depressing cause as much as I love people sometimes it's lonely that there's no one more alike to do crazy shit with me :'(
Also I just turned nineteen but soon I will be twenty and what would I have accomplished then?

Melissa is a two time recipient of the International Medical and Dental Association's prestigious Pen and Quill Award for her books "Integrative Hypnosis: A Comprehensive Course in Change" and "Keeping the Brain in Mind: Practical Neuroscience for Coaches, Therapists and Hypnosis Practitioners" co- written with Shawn Carson. Melissa was recently awarded the NGH's 2014 President's Award, for excellence in the field.
The Center for Integrative Hypnosis offers classes in Classical and Ericksonian Hypnosis, In-Depth NLP, Energy Psychology and Mental Health Coaching.

Because decisions are at the base of everything we do, this approach will provide you set of tools which have tremendous scope and application for living your life as well as helping others. Contact Melissa to register.
New Online Video Courses!!
You have a few great courses to choose from. For practitioners who want to learn how to "Coach the Unconscious Mind" there is a four full day training that's broken down into small video chapters for easy learning and integration. If you want to see this change work in action you can choose from any of the coaching demos, with more to be added monthly.
For anyone suffering from anxiety, the entire "Anti-Anxiety Toolkit" is also available in the same easy to navigate format.
Melissa specializes in anti-anxiety techniques that she teaches the clients to do themselves. Utilizing the latest research in neuroscience and mind/body medicine, she shows you how to use your mind to rewire your brain and change habituated unconscious patterns more easily than you imagined possible.
Melissa teaches a rapid form of self-hypnosis to every client. She also provides every client with a one breath trigger for stress reduction and craving elimination. This empowering cooperative method of hypnotherapy provides the client with all the tools necessary for lasting change with the minimum amount of office visits.
Melissa's smoke cessation program is extremely successful and easy. Smokers learn three rapid techniques for craving elimination and stress reduction. Her weight loss program is enjoyable and healthy, focusing not on diets and feeling denied & deprived, but on health, vitality and an exercise regimen to fit all types of lifestyles. Melissa believes in changing the relationship the individual has to food, thereby changing behavior patterns. This program is fun and inspiring, and makes losing weight and getting in shape easy, replacing a negative self-image with one of renewed energy and positive imagery. The number of sessions varies from two to four, depending on the individual.
When working with pain management Melissa requires a referral from a physician, believing that pain is a signal or a warning of a problem, and that to remove the pain without addressing the cause is dangerous and unethical. Our ability to interfere or block pain signals with our mind is widely documented and highly successful. Hypnosis for pain control has no side effects and takes away the feeling of hopelessness and dependence that sufferers of chronic pain normally experience. It is safe, effective and non-addictive.
Melissa believes in teaching stress management techniques in every session, no matter what the goal. The role that stress plays in compulsive behaviors such as overeating and chain smoking and the myriad of illnesses attributed to or exacerbated by stress is astounding. When one's ability to deal with stress is addressed, many other issues become manageable or non-existent. In today's world, the one breath technique taught by Melissa becomes a vital and indispensable tool for everyday living.
The use of hypnosis for childbirth is becoming one of the more popular methods for achieving a stress-free gentle birth. Hypnosis can be used in place of, or in conjunction with anesthetics. Some women feel hypnosis will turn them into some kind of zombie and they will miss out on the birth experience. This could not be further from the truth. The hypnotized woman is relaxed, totally present, and feels pressure instead of pain during a contraction. Melissa not only advises the mother's partner on how to deepen and support the level of hypnosis, but also actually gives them a session so the process is demystified. The partner can play a vital role in the whole process. In addition to making the labor relaxing and enjoyable for all involved, including, and especially the baby, hypnosis is also quite efficient in dealing with all the other symptoms of pregnancy. Whether it's morning sickness, headaches, water retention, or excessive weight gain, hypnotherapy has been proven effective on all accounts. This should be a joyous and memorable day, not wrought with fear, stress and pain. As a recent study has shown, women who were hypnotized recovered faster, felt much less discomfort, required little or no medication, and delivered babies who scored much higher on the APGAR tests than women who learned other labor techniques.
