Proper Gender Roles in ISKCON Must be Authoritatively and Clearly Defined
Mother Vishakha Priya, Hope these help. I have listed them to also remind me of the prescribed duties without attachment and desire for the results and performing them for the satisfaction of the Supreme Lord.
These devine words of the Supreme Lord are very purifying and always relishable and contain newer and newer meanings.
Thank you very much

Vishakha Priya Mataji wrote comment 18, "So why should they surrender to inferior beings just because their external dress is male? After all, these male and female bodies are temporary designations and they change from one life to the next"
As long as we are in the women's body, we need to follow the rules layed down for that body, as much as the police offer has to follow the rules of the dress he is wearing. A doctor has to follow the rules of his uniform, an army officer his rules.
BG 3.35: It is far better to discharge one's prescribed duties, even though faultily, than another's duties perfectly. Destruction in the course of performing one's own duty is better than engaging in another's duties, for to follow another's path is dangerous.
BG 2.33: If, however, you do not perform your religious (duty of fighting), then you will certainly incur sins for neglecting your duties.
This allies to all the embodied beings my dear mother Vishakha Priya.
BG 2.38: Do thou fight for the sake of fighting, without considering happiness or distress, loss or gain, victory or defeat — and by so doing you shall never incur sin.
Purpoert - That everything should be performed for the sake of Kṛṣṇa is transcendental consciousness; so there is no reaction to material activities.
BG 2.47: You have a right to perform your prescribed duty, but you are not entitled to the fruits of action. Never consider yourself the cause of the results of your activities, and never be attached to not doing your duty. Therefore, fighting as a matter of duty was the only auspicious path of salvation for Arjuna.
Purport: - Prescribed duties are activities enjoined in terms of one's acquired modes of material nature.
BG 2.48: Perform your duty equipoised, O Arjuna, abandoning all attachment to success or failure. Such equanimity is called yoga.
BG.2.51 Purport:Service for the cause of the Lord is called karma-yoga or buddhi-yoga, or in plain words, devotional service to the Lord.
BG 3.5: Everyone is forced to act helplessly according to the qualities he has acquired from the modes of material nature; therefore no one can refrain from doing something, not even for a moment.
BG 3.8: Perform your prescribed duty, for doing so is better than not working. One cannot even maintain one's physical body without work.
BG 3.9: Work done as a sacrifice for Viṣṇu has to be performed, otherwise work causes bondage in this material world. Therefore, O son of Kuntī, perform your prescribed duties for His satisfaction, and in that way you will always remain free from bondage.

So how do we go about doing this?
So far in ISKCON, we do not have the training for All the Ashrams, (meaning Grihastha and Vanaprasthas, then how can be begin to understand the duties and natures of various Varnas in the present context of time (present social circumstances. We have a LOT OF WORK ahead of us.
We need to understand that as long as we have these material bodies, we need to follow the rules of living in this material world which are called Varnashram Dharma (which were created at the beginning of time by Lord Brahma 3rd Canto and BG. Chapters 2 and 3.
If we say that we are spirit souls and don't need to follow Varnashram Dharma, Then, we don't need to eat, sleep, communicate, work etc. because we are spirit souls.
But so as long as we need to continue with all the worldly activities because we have material bodies and material needs, we need to follow the rules of THIS MATERIAL world which are CALLED Varnashram Dharma.
Then as we advance spiritually, we can gradually start to give them up with the premission of our gurus and senior devotees who themselves will be following them for the sake of teaching and encouraging others.
It is very encouraging to see senior devotees like Jaiadvaita Maharaj to give classes encouraging performing one's duties instead of giving them up in the name of devotional service as was taught in the early days of ISKCON. We have many references of seminars and classes given by senior devotees if anyone is interested in learning more on this subject. Again, I beg your pardon for any offenses. And I thank you for this opportunity.

We don't know to full extent what other duties and obligations are in that relationship, like in the example of Kamsa and Lord Krsna or duty if Kamsa towards his sister Devaki where Vasudeva clearly outlines many of them not all. (oops, I am getting carried away and making this too trivial).
But the real point is that as long as we live in this material world we need to follow this system, UNLESS one is an AVADHUTTA or one wants to remain outside of Varnashram Dharma.
At this point many devotees will cite the verse that for one who has taken shelter of pure devotional service one is free of all obligations. (but my point is that we are NOT giving up any principals of pure devotional service, we are ONLY going to ADD the basic rules of Human life to decorate our external interactions which will further beautify the qualities of devotees and endear them to others.
—–Second duty of a grihastha is to make his family, relatives and community Krsna Conscious as per order of Lord Caitanya.
In order to prepare a meal, there are so many many rules one has to observe. What to speak of serving a meal to a Guest. There are hundred of rules. Do we know them. These are suposed to be taught in Varnashram College. It is mentioned that Lord Krsna and Lord Rama learnt these rules in the gurukula where Dharma Sastras like Manu Samhita and Ayurveda were also taught along with all the other Vedas (Bhakti Vidya Purna Maharaj's tapes on Varnashram and Manu Samhita)
What food item to serve when, with what and how? Which direction one should be facing while eating, sleeping, cooking etc.
Varnashram in simple terms means, KNOWING the rules, duties and obligations of various Varnas and Ashrams and then Following them, Along with rules, duties and obligations of Pure Devotional Service as per example of Great devotees like our Acharyas like Bhaktivinod Thakur, Srila Prabhupada, Mahajans, Rajrishis, Kings like Janaka, Priyavrata, Ambarish M and devotees like Prahlad & Bali Maharaj who followed the rules of Grihastha life (and Varnashram Dharma) even though they came from a family of demons. —–Continued —-

Srila Prabhipada wanted us to help develop Daivi Varnashram Dharma NOT asuri or regular Varnashram.
Daivi Varnashram is automatically included all the principals of devotional service like having Krsna in the center and also 18.66 (sarva dharma parityaja).
But we are requested to include the 'second half of HIS WORK" which is Divine Varnashram. So what is that?
That is what we need to figure out for the benefit of all the above reasons mentioned in my first post and many other reasons not mentioned like
"Human Life begins at the stage of Varnashram" SP
Now I would like to share the following observations.
1) Recently there are yearly Brahmachari Conventions happening in some countries.
2)We have a functioning or unfunctioning Sanyas Ministry
—–So why NOT have an official Grihastha Training Facilities & Programs like
Mother Uttama and her team who are giving counselling/guiding programs for couples who want to get married through Grihastha Vision team. I think these programs have become compulsary in some temples if any couples want the local pujaris to conduct their marriage.
And we also have the example of counselling system set up by Chowpatty devotees, who I beleive are also sharing their systems and skills with other interested parties.
—– We need these because Srila Prabhupada had said that the First Duty of a Grihastha is to feed others and then honor prasad.
So how to do that in our present circumstances. We need to discuss this and many other important duties of Grihasthas. E.g. Rules about interaction with other people like one's neighbours (as given in 11th Canto), one's statesmen, king, duties towards one's nephews and neices? As in the case of Lord Caitanya to Chand Kazi. That discussion only implies the obligations of their relationship. —Continued—-

Sita Rama Prabhu,
Yes, it is a vast topic. Yet, we are very fortunate that many serions devotees all over the world are doing a lot of research on these topics and already educating devotees on these subjects.
Let us discuss and educate ourselves on these principals of Divine Varnashram Dharma called - Daivi Varnshram.
I beg your pardon for too many words. It is my desire to see the discussions and further education on these topics to help us all in fulfilling Srila Prabhupada's desire.

Dear Sita Rama Prabhu,
This is a delemma among devotees in ISKCON. It also very confusing for the followers of Vedic Culture also, 'the present undefined roles, duties and obligations". Therefore it is very important that we seriously discuss the principals of Daivi Varnashram Dharma (divine varnashram with Lord Krsna in the center) and understand clearly the differnces between
Vedic Principals (rules, norms, obligations & duties) also called Sanatan Dharm in the third canto because these are eternal principals,
'Regular' Varnashram (sometimes called Vedic Path - (as mentioned in the 11th Canto), or Asuri Varnashram ( the present day left over of Vedic path and so called Hinduism, SP also calls it remnants of varnashram) and
Pure Devotional Service (call the Path of Bhakti) - sometimes called Sanatan Dharma &
Divine Varnashram or Daivi Varnashram Dharma.
All the above categories have specific rules, regulations, obiligations and duties towards all members of society, communities and families with scientific reasons as listed in the specific scriptures for corresponding categories. E.g. Bhakti sastras for Pure Devotional Service, Dharma Sastra for Vedic Path and amalgamations of both for Daivi Varnashram Dharma as given in the books of Bhaktivinod Thakur especially the `Jaiva Dharma' and Caitanya Sikshamrita and Purports of his divine Srila Prabhupada.
In Daivi Varnashram Dharma or society - The Vaisnavas follow the rules of the Vedic Culture for the following reasons:
—NOT to create confusion or disharmony in the society (disharmonious situation) - BG - Chap 2
—NOT unsettle the minds of non-devotees
—To show proper example in the family, community, and society.
—NOT to break the Vedic Social Norms
—To help others progress in their paths of elevation of consciousness towards Krsna consciousness
—To protect oneself from falling down in the path of bhakti
—To prevent oneself from becoming a sahajya
—To respect the principals of eternal varnashram dharma laid down at the time of creation
—To follow the laws of material world as set by Manus and examplified by Mahajans
—To follow the instructions of one's gurus
—To Please the Vaisnavas
—To follow the example of the Supreme Lord
—To please the Supreme Lord

This is similar to Vedic Samskars. Starting from the name giving ceremony for the baby, going out first time, grain ceremony, mundan ceremony, then starting the school, vedic graduation ceremony, etc, and upto forty other more samskars in a persons life.
In Varnashram these rituals are norm. So if devotees seriously look at implementing Daivi Varnashram Dharma, then these cultural needs of social interactiions of family and friends will be met.
In all these ceremonies, usually, small or big yajnas are main focus with the chanting of the mantras, distribution of prasad and gifts. So these brings all the family members and friends together for exhange of gifts, prasad and glorifying the Supreme Lord by Chanting Holy Names in Sankirtan becomes a very enjoyable household duty.

Throwing Coloured Dyes on Holi
which are used in pujas like Abil, Gulal, kum kum, tumeric, rice and mung flour and saffron and evoke devotional mood. They have wonderful healing properties for body, mind, senses, and the soul that is why they are used in puja. So when the change of season occurs these dyes were smeared on people for prevention of viruses and warding off negative energy. These coloured dyes are used in all auspicious ceremonies e.g. Diwali for Rangolis, Weddings, Holi and at all samskaras. You will see in the movie RamaVanvas (Ramayan) how Lord Rama was first smeared with all the auspicious substances by His mothers and then bathed with panchamrita. In the aame way during the vedic wedding one day is set aside for this ceremony by all the elder ladies to smear the young couple in their respective homes with tumeric, kumkum & mung flour paste mixed with auspicous scented oils for enhancing their beauty, warding off negativity from evil eyes and other spirits and creating general balance in the chakras of the body. The coloured dyes have positive effect on various chakras of the body and have wonderful healing properties e.g. tumeric has anti-fungal and anti-biotic properties and it invokes the love of divine mother. The saffron gives joy, has uplifting properties and creates laughter (it is reported that some people die of laughter in Iran from overuse of saffron). Kumkum attracts good UV rays from the atmosphere and invokes divine love. Similar to various flower dyes. So some states in India are already promoting natural coloured dyes.
Hope this helps to enthuse devotees to seriously discuss Daivi Varnashram Dharma. I beg your pardon for the length of this article. Some devotees have appreciated the contents as informative. Your servant Mother Gandhari dasi

away men with sticks.'
(Not that we want to introduce the stick festival in Iskcon). But Hindus have Rass and Garba during this time using the stick (called Ras dance singing the beautiful pastimes of Lord Krsna). This stick dance is celebrated in many major festivals by Hindus on Vedic Calender. 1) Sarad Purnima, Navaratri, & Holi etc. I am including on of the songs that is sung in Braja. from this website.
Holi in Braj Bhumi -
Braj mein hori khelat Nandlal.
Kesar rang ki keech bhai hai,
Chahun or udat gulal,
Nachat gopal.
Braj mein hori khelat Nandlal.
Baajat jhanjhar, dhol, majari aur khartal,
Braj ki nari sangh hori khelat,
Nachat dede taal, sakhi.
Braj mein hori khelat Nandlal.
(This song sung by women describes Nandlal, as young Krishna is called, playing hori with the women of Brajbhoomi - the area comprising Mathura, Vrindavan, Gokul and Barsana that are associated with Krishna and Radha. 'Red colour is flying in all directions and the mud has turned slushy with saffron coloured water. Friend, dance to the beat as Nandlal is playing hori' - so the song goes.)
More Holi songs about pancha tattva
I remember a class given by Sridhar Maharaj during his very last days in Vancouver before going to Mayapur, where he mentioned that actually 80% of Hindus in India are Vaisnavas. It means that we need to obeserve with a different perspective than what we are used to.
There are couple other observances. That it is recommended in CC Adi - lila part 2 that a devotee should NOT stay at a neophyte level. He MUST come to spontaneous devotional service.
What does this have to do with holi? Holi is celebrated with knowledge of relationships & etiquette towards each other and Krsna. Therefore following suggestions.
1) We need to get training of various ettiquette, duties, and relationship towards each other in family, society and community according to Dharma Sastras.
2) Form Brahman Councils to decide which festivals to include uniformly in ISKCON according to Daivi Varnashram Dharma
3) How does Vedic Calender effect devotees in Daivi Varnshram Dharma
4) What part of Dharma Sastras should we take note of e.g. Ayurveda, Sthapatya, Parasar, Manu samhita etc.
5) What steps should be take in order to implement Daivi Varnshram Dharma.
I missed out the part that the Holi Colours were originally natural dye

Pediatric RCC differs histologically from the adult counterparts. Although the two main morphological subgroups of papillary and clear cell can be identified, about 25% of RCCs show heterogeneous features that do not fit into either one of these categories. Childhood RCCs are more frequently of the papillary subtype (20%–50% of pediatric RCCs) and can sometimes occur in the setting of Wilms tumor, metanephric adenoma, and metanephric adenofibroma.
Translocation-positive carcinomas of the kidney are recognized as a distinct form of RCC and may be the most common form of RCC in children. They are characterized by translocations involving the transcription factor E3 (TFE3) located on Xp11.2. The TFE3 gene may partner with one of the following genes:
- ASPSCR in t(X;17)(p11.2;q25).
- PRCC in t(X;1)(p11.2;q21).
- SFPQ in t(X;1)(p11.2;p34).
- NONO in inv(X;p11.2;q12).
- Clathrin heavy chain (CLTC) in t(X;17)(p11;q23).
Another less common translocation subtype, t(6;11)(p21;q12), involving a fusion Alpha/TFEB, induces overexpression of transcription factor EB (TFEB). The translocations involving TFE3 and TFEB induce overexpression of these proteins, which can be identified by immunohistochemistry.[57] Prior exposure to chemotherapy is the only known risk factor for the development of Xp11 translocation RCCs. The postchemotherapy interval ranged from 4 to 13 years. All reported patients received either a DNA topoisomerase II inhibitor and/or an alkylating agent.[38,58] Controversy exists as to the biological behavior of the translocation RCC in children and young adults. Whereas some series have suggested a good prognosis when RCC is treated with surgery alone despite presenting at a higher stage (III/IV) than TFE-RCC, a meta-analysis reports that these patients have poorer outcomes.[59,60,61] Recurrences have been reported 20 to 30 years after the initial resection of the translocation-associated RCC.[54] VEGFR-targeted therapies and mTOR inhibitors seem to be active in Xp11 translocation metastatic RCC.[62]

Victory Day, a very special day in my family, just like is special for millions of people in Ukraine. A day in which we honour the memory of the people who lost their lives in the war, for our freedom!
Every year there's a parade for the veterans, we bring a lot of flowers to the monument. But due to the situation with Russia this year everything was canceled, because everybody is afraid of provocations.
For me this is very sad, because my great-grandfather was lost in action, and my grandfather grew up without a father.
So we are going to make this day special for him…in memory of my great-grandfather!!

To do the cool things, you have to be logged in first.
I don't know why Joel got a tech. he was the one that got hit. It looked like it was going to be a free for all. Glad they got it taken care of.Hg
the enforcer is back baby! techs on any blazer was wrong in that situation. props to cunningham for telling davis to get off his frenchie. i knew i should have gone to this game. i loved the thryllas hard foul on griffin. "not in this house punk!" I hope this win sparks the team to come out and move the ball on every possession. i'm loving the fast breaks and ball movement! RIP CITY BABY
Our guys do love eachother...isn't that what being a "TEAM" is all about??? Come on now...we support our guys, they support one another...we ALL win...b
I was there at the game and I am perfectly okay with taking a backseat to the guys. That is one thing I love about this team -- they watch out for each other and they have each others backs. They help one another up when they go to the ground, they give props to each other for assists (like when Camby alley oops to LMA for a sweet dunk -- LMA always high fives Camby), I could go on but I think I've made my point :) I've noticed the guys coming together a lot more this season than I did last year and it is a good sign to see. Hope they keep it up!
that wasnt the highlight of the game for me, but it was damn close. joel is a EFFing beast, we need that in the game so bad right now.
Always nice to see the team supporting each other. Great to have Joel back and his toughness is definitely needed as well.
Beautifully said, Casey.
I loved seeing Joels' standing O's but not surprised that the fans did that. I don't think Joel really knows how much he's loved here in Blazer town.When Cook pushed him I totally yelled, sending my cats scrambling for cover, but boy, I was p*ssed! WTH, Cook? Was that intentional? You don't mess with our Pryz - especially after he's had a year off due to back injury. Still makes me angry!B.Davis, good player, doesn't get it. Maybe the Clippers will learn something about how a real team plays and cares about it's players....Nah, probably not!
I was at the game....the initial contact and seeing Joel go down hard on his back the crowd immediately went into overdrive...It was like ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I LOVED seeing the emotion of the team and how they really feel about each other. It also was nice to see Nate run out on the floor...stuff like this is instinct not scripted. ....oh and Joel...I love you
I was there last night, and I said it last night, and I'll say it again here:: This team goes hard for each other. They don't back down from anyone. I remember last season, when Juwan went after Charlie Villanueva for a hard foul on Rudy. I mean, for a guy, brand new to the team, to go hard like that? There's something special about the love this team has for each other. I hope we keep it up. Other teams need to fear us. And things like this will help.I <3 my Blazers! Rip City for Life!
the fact that all 4 rallied around Joel after that cheap shot says to me that they're not going to be pushed over anymore. it was ridiculous that Joel got teed up; he didn't do anything to warrant that. let's hope this pays off as the season goes on with hopes of looking back at this game as the one that turned their season around
Standing ovation was tremendous. Welcome back Joel.
Sorry that I missed commenting on this piece. Yes, we fans love Joel, but I think we can take 2nd place with a smile. :-) As always, thanks Casey. - Anees

A study of the delivery and a test of the adapted version of OSLC's Parent-Management Training to Latino families.
The LYFE-II study is designed to deliver and test with Latino families a culturally adapted version of OSLC's Parent Management Training. We want to discover if the parenting methods taught in the program have an effect on how successfully Latino parents communicate with and guide their children and if there are differences between families with children born in the U.S compared to those born in other Latin American countries. The study involves 240 Latino families with youngsters in the 6th through 8th grade, about half of whom are foreign-born and half born in the U.S. All families are involved in the study for approximately 2 years and are interviewed five times. Fifty percent of the families in the study received the Parent Management Training and 50% received services as usual.

Unfortunately yes it can, even if you make a retraction statement you can still be forced to do to court and give evidence against him. Your statement can still be used and if you refuse cou can be arrested and bought before the court.
|-- answer removed --
You can't retract your statement, you can just make a retraction statement. This would give good reason why you wanted to withdraw your statement ie you were mistaken or under the influence etc. This does not mean that your original statement wont be used in court and you can still be called to give evidence from it.

A closer look at the new Yankee pitcher, Michael Pineda

I wouldn't want to see that in the batter's box. Would you? Setting aside what it says about me and my priorities, I will never forget where I was during certain key moments in Yankees' hot stove history. I was at work not working when I logged onto ESPN and discovered the Yankees had traded for Alex Rodriguez. I was in an airport waiting to fly to London when I found out the team had signed Johnny Damon. I was sitting at my desk in my room when I discovered the Yankees had signed Mark Teixeira. I was sitting in a bar with my buddy Omar, around 11pm on Friday night, when I saw the news ticker report that the Yankees had signed Hiroki Kuroda. A moment later my jaw hit the floor when I saw the Yankees had also traded Jesus Montero for

Solidarity in games with a coalition structure
AbstractA new axiomatic characterization of the two-step Shapley value Kamijo (2009) is presented based on a solidarity principle of the members of any union: when the game changes due to the addition or deletion of players outside the union, all members of the union will share the same gains/losses.

|When the power went out just after 4 p.m. Thursday, I went to my Member Provincial Parliament's office to give him a piece of my mind (couldn't afford too large a piece). Traffic lights non-functional, traffic tie-up en route, didn't arrive till 4:35. Office still open - fortunately.
On way home, rush-hour traffic tie-up at major intersection, I directed traffic - over half a dozen thanked, waved, etc. - one said, "Get off the street!".
Visited old uncle, bad hip, painful movement, to ensure he was O.K. - had radio, flashlight, candles. Goes to bed before dark, gets up (just) after daylight.
National broadcaster gave wall-to-wall coverage, had province-wide toll-free phone to share info.
One guy cried, about 10:30 p.m.: he had 400 lbs. of meat, didn't specify condition, I had impression it may have been fresh, not frozen - if so, substantial reduction in margin time till it would spoil.
I tried to call, for a while in the dark, power returned about 11:00 at my location.
Continued trying - busy signal. Got ringing about 5 times, but after twenty rings reverted to busy signal.
About 4 a.m. got through, suggested that the guy:
-find a van or pickup,
I said that I was sure that he would go less than five miles until he found a farmer who'd be willing to fire up his generator, plug in the freezer and freeze his meat.
Would have been a good idea if they took two vehicles, leaving one and operator to keep using the generator from time to time, until the power outage at home was over.
I've borrowed local generators, travelled in blackout area generating for freezers, fridges., a couple of times in last 30 years or so. Usually leave phone number where I can be reached in case owner needs his machine.
Goofed last night - should have got on phone to try to locate some I could use: called over a couple of dozen this morning, none available.
They say they'll have rolling blackouts for something like a week.
Chief problem is that they've allowed generating capacity to have too little additional capacity. In several interconnected jurisdictions.
And have allowed transmission grid to become outdated - they say that quite a number of power stations were kicked down automatically within a period of a few minutes.
With all our increased sophistication over the last half century - it appears that we haven't learned how (or been willing to spend on non-glamorous issues) to operate a power system well.
If I were a terrorist, I think that would have been a good time to strike, if the plans were all in place.
That having been said - I think that the howl about terrorism around here is largely overblown.
Far more people killed annually through speeding, bad driving. Lousy housing. Drinking and driving. How about smoking? Infant deaths due largely to poverty? Drug overdoses - and we're losing that so-called "war".
How much do we yell about those issues?
Fewer deaths per million miles flown than driven on the highways: safer to fly than drive to the airport - but many fear to fly.
Hoo ever said that hooman beans were rational - let alone consistent?

Follow-Up Postings:
|The problem around here anyway is that no one has any problem at all with using electric power, but when new power plants or power lines are proposed, they go protest them, sue, and do everything else in their power to make sure they can't be built. As a result, the power system is more heavily loaded than ever, yet can't be improved.
|On phone-in program Monday noon after the Big Blackout -
One lady said immediately after power came back on - her neighbours cranked up air conditioner.
The went away for weekend.
Several generating stations that went down will take several days to a week or more to bring back online.
Trouble is - I'm preaching to the converted, here.
ole joyful
|Confession time - I went to the Member of Provincial Parliament's office to apologize for having chewed his rep out so heavily on the day of the blackout.
Then reiterated several questions that need answering about our power problems.
By the way - there's a front ante-room to the office, with a desk and racks holding a lot of materials telling what a wonderful job our government is doing.
It seems that an older lady spends some time there - but there's no phone.
There's a locked door leading to the inner main office - and a sign saying that we should ring for service. The lady who spends some time in the outer office doesn't have a key - she must buzz to be admitted.
Some of the staff inside do, as one went out for coffee and used hers on her return.
I find that astounding.
By the way - they kept me waiting for over half an hour - so when I finally got to apologize - they had some apologizing to do, as well.
Current discussion has it that an election may be called any day now, with the big day to happen about five weeks down the road.
So my M.P.P. is rather busy, these days.
Make sure that your power is always at the ready, all.
P.S. I was commuting to my son's clown site by tall (sailing) ships in Sarnia, beside Port Huron, MI, over the weekend and forgot to replace the fuses on my water heater - so dealt with tepid water, today. Plugged in again at 9 p.m. tonight.
Should heat in 3 hours or so - so I can remove again during the day. Too bad I can't buy power at lower rates during the middle of the night! ('Twould help with computer, also).
|It's getting near the end of summer, but ...
... should you or a friend be faced with a similar problem - my suggested solution should still work.

In just a few words ...
Built on the collaborative efforts of one designer, one creator, and a few friends of both persuasions, Illustrative provides both design and illustration services in many beautiful ways.
Determined at bringing typical design work beyond pre-formatted templates and ill-chosen colors, the team here at the studio works hard to ensure our creations are of the highest caliber, as well as fulfilling the conceptual and economical expectations of our clientele. Foremost among our goals is to honor God with the quality and availability of our talents, and as such, many of our design efforts are put to use by non-profit organizations, churches and great schools like FCC.
The Skills
What it is that we can do?
We like to draw and we like to smile, so it should be no surprise that our illustrations are colorful, exciting and a whole lot of fun to look at. When we act serious-like, out come complete identity designs, including distinctive logo creations and innovative corporate materials. Our skills also include both the design and development of dynamic web experiences. We hand-code by preference, but can do plenty of good in a WYSIWYG when necessary. CSS is our best friend for style and we love to build for XHTML compatibility and accessibility. It's important for us that things look nice, so we are only happy when both our PCs and our Macs see things eye-to-eye.
For all our friends in education, we have recently added curriculum and inner office document enhancement to our list of services.

Site History
Looking back into our past
Through the years, we have gone through quite a few different looks. Feel free to browse through some of our past haircuts ... just don't hold any of the lame '80s hair against us, 'kay?
Version 20.2
Pin-up and hold it down
Built-on the wonderful Simplelog Ruby framework, it had all the currently used Textile wonderfulness, but with cleaner shirts and straighter ties.
Version 20.1 (Unreleased)
Colorful like a crayon box
Chalk full of wonderful JavaScript features like auto-hiding navigation and Google language translation ... plus some subtlety gorgeous color gradients.
Version 20.0 (Unreleased)
Subtle black lace with minty blue
Meant to be slick and smooth, with custom backgrounds per user. Never completed, but it still might show up yet!
Version 19.0
Puffy clouds are fun for a girl or boy
Simple and to the point, this served as a centralized landing page for all of our online endeavors.
Version 18.0
Penguins, ribbons and lovely wallpaper
Clean and inviting lines, plus elegant coloring. Friendly mascots and colorful samples. This is when we became "Illustrative", too and ended the magic that was "Evenstar Media".
Version 17.2 (Unreleased)
Beautiful colors and knitted pixels
Barely started and ended even sooner, this was an initiative to implement some wonderful graphics and textures for both of our main goals ... design and fashion.
Version 17.1 (Unreleased)
The Business and the Gusto
Pretty and pink and just enough attitude to annoy some important people.
Version 17.0 (Unreleased)
Chocolate candies with soft and silky blue sweaters
Prominent and trendy styles. Bold and inviting colors and wood inlays. Concept and color choices due in large part to Vanessa Wilson.
Version 16.0
Ink splotches floating in the sky
Subdued colors. Subtle humor and finesse. Slightly over-done structuring and legalisms. Excellent usage of Blogger.com technologies and customization featuress.
Version 15.0
Dark and sweet licorice
Straight-forward and simple, with plenty of hints toward crafty and good design.
Version 14.0
Overrun by robots and mechanics
Temporarily utilizing the unique services of SquareSpace and their blogging software. Intense monitoring of site statistics and linking. Random robots thrown in for good measure.
Version 13.0
Cartoons and Speech Bubbles
Surrounded by dark patterns, highlighted with brilliant colors and fancy-free illustrations. Leaning heavily on structured tags, systematic entries, and lots of content.
Version 12.0
Colorful enough to blind you
An entire spectrum of strong colors and near bucket loads of fancy illustrations. Fully equipped with a more than dandy Dra Studio logo.
Version 11.0
Creamy aqua jewels
Only an intermediary design, used to help alleviate those constant design urges. Light backgrounds and bright, prominent header images.
Version 10.0
Mood ring, oh, mood ring
Probably the most popular feature of any Dra Studio incarnation, this version's theme capability was well-received. Enjoyable color variations and quite a bit of content.
Version 9.0
Darks with itty bits of blue
Flashy and colorful, using nice Squidfingers tile patterns. One of the first completely CSS-styled versions. The second image is of a alternate theme that was never implemented.
Version 8.0
Illustrator Extraordinare
One of the most popular and famous versions of the Dra Studio. Fun and exciting, with bold clean lines. Lots of illustrated elements and humorous little extras.
Version 7.0
All squared away
Frequently updated collection of content. Mellow, easy-reading entries with plenty of eye-catching visuals ... all in a fun-sized wrapper.
Version 6.0 (Unreleased)
Bright and fully radiant
Sleek design. A simple and representative concept. Vivid and soothing colors. The site design never saw completion though.
Version 5.0
Putting pixels to better use
Creative, brightly colored and finally a version that is substantially productive. Lots of features, with easy-to-follow navigation and entries.
Version 4.0
Chaos of cogs and gears
Colorful and engaging. Totally clique and trendy. And one of the first consistent uses of a Dra Studio logo across multiple mediums.
Version 3.0
Seek art where you can find it
First attempt at a concise and relative identity concept, directly aimed at the design medium. Vibrant colors and smooth gradients, with just a hint of glossy shine.
Version 2.0
Energy from rockets
More refined. Stronger attempts at an iconic feel. Again, never really used, but the mockups looked really nice.
Bright, singular colors and simplistic backgrounds. Random symbolism that now seems more than a little silly.

If you pay attention to the movies they will tell you what people desire and fear. Movies are hardly ever about what they seem to be about. Look at a movie that a lot of people love, and you will find something profound, no matter how silly the film may be.RIP, Roger Ebert (via explore-blog)

The people on the street recognize you right away. If you have negative thoughts in your mind, people get this right away. If you really want to do something good, they understand and feel this too. They can sense what your intentions are—that you have not come not to steal anything, or do anything bad—and then they try to help you. People help you when you have showed up just because you are curious about the lives others lead. The entire essential deal with photography is that you have to be honest. If you don't really like people, or look down from above on them, they will react similarly to you. If you go somewhere where you don't actually like the local people, there is no way you can do good work there. Communications with the people whose photos you are taking is vital. And you do not absolutely have to have words or phrases at the ready to strike up communications. What is really important actually is emotional communication. Actually, the thing that gives me the most pleasure when it comes to taking photos is that feeling of having "been accepted." I mean, I go to a completely foreign place, and I start dialogues with the people there. When these people who I never knew before accept me, and take me into their lives, it is an incredible feeling.Nikos Economopoulos (via fotojournalismus)

In 1968, during the administration of US President Lyndon B. Johnson, Kitt encountered a substantial professional setback after she made anti-war statements during a White House luncheon. Kitt was invited to the White House luncheon and was asked by Lady Bird Johnson about the Vietnam War. She replied: "You send the best of this country off to be shot and maimed. No wonder the kids rebel and take pot."
During a question and answer session, Kitt stated:
"The children of America are not rebelling for no reason. They are not hippies for no reason at all. We don't have what we have onSunset Blvd. for no reason. They are rebelling against something. There are so many things burning the people of this country, particularly mothers. They feel they are going to raise sons — and I know what it's like, and you have children of your own, Mrs. Johnson — we raise children and send them to war."
Her remarks reportedly caused Mrs. Johnson to burst into tears and led to a derailment in Kitt's career. The public reaction to Kitt's statements was extreme, both pro and con. She became publicly ostracized in the US.

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Thanks to Porfirio H gonzalez my kids have great improvement in their grades, best teachers, mrs. Mills(the principal) and mr.vazquez(viceprincipal), do the best effort for students and the school, the school also have great tutorials and programs; I have a lot to thank to P. H. Gonzalez :)
Made many friends at this school. Teachers were great. Also best years of my life.
I am a student at P.H.G and i honestly think its a great school to go to. It is very safe and it is very strict on bullying. The teachers are also great, they spend their time trying to think of something to help their students out. This school has different programs you can have your children sign up for. I think this is an amazing school.
THIS SCHOOL SUCKS! Everyday my son begs me to keep him home, He is struggling with his school work and when he asks for help he says his teachers tell him to just bring it home and ask me. I'm not sure why the Teachers are not wanting to take the time to help these children who are in need of help but it seem slike they would rather just pass it off to the parents. so I say instead of sending our kids to a school who don't care about our kids and there future lets open our own school since our kids are not being taught or even given the opportunity to be successful.
This school is a war zone. The teachers are frequently cursed at by students with little or no consequences from the administration. Very unappealing campus, old outdated buildings and classrooms. Inept principal has been moved to a district position. Hopefully his replacement can turn the school around.
When I first moved to Tolleson in 2008, I searched for a good performing school and found this one. It started out great but it has slowly gone downwards. The entire grading system has changed and the parents were never notified. Now its 80% test, 10% homework, 10% participation. This makes it hard when most of the kids in 6, 7th & 8th are out of control and the teachers cannot prepare the kids enough to pass these test. The teachers are good but the principal, Mr. Medrano and leadership is just not taking this school in the right direction. I don't think I will leave my kids in for the rest of the school year:(
Unfortunately, I ran into some problems with a young teacher, she was unethical and inexperienced. I hope the administrators realize that some of their teachers run into some problems and they make up excuses to try and punish the child. Sorry PH Gonzales your motto all about the people should be changed.
Our experience at ph gonzales has been fantastic. Not just the education but yourpeers are most caring people you can ever meet. The teachers and students treat you like family. The teachers work overtime to make sure you succeed. The discpline is phenominal. They teach you to respect one another. I have never been to a better school than this. They have a bullying program to teach you it's not ok to mistreat kids. They also have after school programs, from tutoring, science club, guitar lessons, teen council, sports, ect....
Great School - Everyone works very hard to help children succeed - they have come a long way.
The growth in this area is making hard on teachers to accomidate the students.
The newer teachers are enthusiastic about teaching, which is helpful. It makes the kids want to learn more, because they make learning fun.
The most dedicated and caring school. I trust the staff and my child's safety to them.
Too many complaints to list. unattentive teachers, poor environment and the campus is wide open for any pedophile that decides to snatch a kid. To sum it up, just don't do it!
I think they could keep better track of their students. I forgot to let them know that my daughter would not be in school and the school never called to check on her. What if she had never made to school, I wouldn't have knowen until it was too late.

My prediction is Ohio goes to Barrack and Republicans hopefully remodel their party knowing they have a dying, small tent platform. If Republicans were working for the upper middle class and middle class instead of the elite, younger men and more women would slide on over to the GOP. Both parties are in it for money, either greed or capital to push their "enlightened" agenda, but the GOP owe favors to slimier contributors.... Dems are inefficient and enablers of US scum, and Repubs are somehow aligned with religion but void of charity and sympathy for the working poor. I hope I get to be the first poster here after our author is proven wrong. I give Obama 80-20 to win BTW, i'd vote Republican with Ron Paul

"You live in a barbarous place. You cannot be blamed for trying to survive. If there were gods who would have judged you, they have long ago fled the Drowned Cities."The Drowned Cities is a science-fiction novel by Paolo Bacigalupi and the companion piece to Ship Breaker. The novel is set in the flooded interior of the United States following the melting of the polar ice caps.There is no law and order in the Drowned Cities. Armies of soldier boys, with titles like the United Patriotic Front (UPF), the Army of God, and Taylor's Wolves war over the wreckage of what was once the world's greatest superpower, bullying and killing anyone they feel like. Teenage Mahlia, left maimed after an encounter with the Army of God, just wants to get on with her life, and eke out a living among her fellow refugees as a doctor's assistant. A chance encounter with a wounded halfman named Tool, and the subsequent press-ganging of her friend Mouse into the UPF, however, upset Mahlia's life and put her on a collision course with the soldier boys and their leader, Colonel Glenn Stern.

With first and second choices sidetracked, anti-abortion forces will be putting their remaining efforts for the session behind SB 210, a bill to permit physicians who perform abortions to be sued – by the women undergoing the procedures – if they don't follow all state restrictions now in place.
That includes requirements such as parental notification for women under the age of 18. And in this instance, Republicans don't appear to believe in tort reform — no liability caps are included.
SB 210 was remanded directly to the Senate Rules Committee – usually a sign of greased tracks. The measure is sponsored by state Sen. Barry Loudermilk, R-Cassville. Another anti-abortion bill by Loudermilk suddenly morphed last week into a measure that would have restricted abortions to hospitals – which by and large do not perform abortions.
It was tabled after being judged too fraught with legal issues.
