*Worth Waiting For*
"Naghihintay, naniniwala, ang puso'y maligaya at payapa. Panatag ang loob kahit nag-iisa, pagdating nga araw kapiling na kita. DARATING KA RIN.
- Tagpuan, Abby Asistio
Probably this is my favorite part of this song, it really says something. No, A LOT.
Naghihintay - yes, but not in vain. Kasi alam kong may iniintay ako. Haha! Tsaka, marami kayang DAPAT gawin, baguhin sa sarili ko with God's guidance and isa-alang-alang bago kami mag meet ni SL.
SL - Now: Secret Love = Kasi hindi ko pa sya kilala, SECRET pa sya ni Lord. hehe
Future: Second Love = Kasi si Lord ung FIRST! Asa syang mas mahal ko sya kesa kay Lord! LOL, syempre PINAKAMAHAL KO SI JESUS 'no! :D
Naniniwala - sino ba namang hindi maniniwala kung si Lord na ang nangako sayo na hinahanda na Nya ung Prince mo diba? haha! A King will never break His promise, especially to His Princess. ;]
Ang Puso'y maligaya at payapa - Rest assured na ung pangako Nya. For now, all we have to do is to fill ourselves in God's presence, un ung way ni Lord ng pagpeprepare Nya for our Prince. Let Him use you. :D
Panatag ang loob kahit nag-iisa, pagdating nga araw kapiling na kita - Single ka mang maituturing ngayon, hindi ka naman lonely! Kasi Love ni Lord ang sinasandalan mo ngayon at forever! haha! The best ang magiging lovestory mo pagganun! Tapos, pag dumating na ung Takdang Panahon ni Lord para magmeet na kayo ni Prince, ay nako! May fireworks effect pa! hoho!!!
Darating ka rin - Don't fret, darating din sya. Don't waste your time in some random relationships. Sorry, I never meant to offend anyone. Pero kasi ako naniniwala na if I wait for God's story to happen in my life, especially dyan sa aspect na "love life", hindi ako masasaktan and all. I mean siguro there would be trials and all pero andun kasi ung preparation ni God sa akin na hindi ako basta tataob sa problemang un.
Ung "Waiting Time" kasi hindi sya "Idle Time" na wala kang ginagawa, I've learned frim Ms. Thammie Sy na, God's meaning of "Waiting Time" is "Preparing Time" as well. I-reready ni God ung heart mo hindi lang para sa Prince mo kung hindi para din sa Duties mo as a Princess in His Kingdom.
Do you hear me all Young Princesses out there?
Let God prepare you and use you as He prepare your Prince.
Worth Waiting For - Abby Asistio
Listen to this girls! And shout to the world that YOU ARE WORTH WAITING FOR. ;]
And! check out Ms. Abby's Tumblr and Twitter as well:
have questions? my ask box is open ;]

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Hopkinson school use to be great.. it has been lacking supervision .. my 6 year old daughter walked out the school .. we're was her teacher ??? And also bug infested.. I'm very disappointed with this school .
Hopkinson is truly an amazing school. The teachers are engaging and truly seem to care about the children's well being. I would highly recommend this school for both the community feel as well as the superior academic teaching.
Last year a child in TK walked off campus and went home a couple of blocks away. Supervision is lacking when it comes to the 4-5 year olds. They are out on a huge playground after lunch. Supervisors do not walk around much. No one facilitates the kids who are by themselves in finding a group or game to join in. Teachers have no interest in what is happening at lunch and recess.
Treat each child uniquely. The teachers are great and are very dedicated to the development of the children.
We have had a couple of great teachers so far at Hopkinson! I know parents who have not been so lucky, so realistically, the school has its strengths and weaknesses. All we can do is report our experiences. I see some people come on here to lecture parents when this site is about the school. Whether one volunteers at the school or not, does not change the fact of whether your teacher goes above and beyond and is loving. This district as a whole segregates differently-abled students to one campus for the most part. You know it's true! ST Math has been around for years. Other districts are now changing from it. Start talking to your friends out of state, and find out what their schools have . You might be surprised at how lacking our district is. Another weakness is that administrators have decided to have their own children at Hopkinson which many, many parents feel is inappropriate. This is not just my opinion. Knowing that so many people feel this way compels me to address it because they do not feel comfortable AT ALL with the situation. Please do not attack me for writing this. It is my true experience at Hopkinson....a school with many strengths and some weaknesses.
We have had one exemplary teacher, one good and one abysmal teacher. Sounds like a lot of schools. The teachers have it really good compared to other schools. They get a lot of parent volunteers and class donations. Test scores are great because the students have a lot of advantages and enrichment activities provided by parents. Hopkinson has some of the best teachers I have ever met, but there are also lazy, spoiled, rigid, uncaring ones as well.
We LOVE Hopkinson. After reading all of the reviews, it seems like the involved families are happy and others are not. get involved, especially if you a special kid, one way or another!
This is an amazing school that focuses on the whole child. The staff is experienced and enthusiastic. The new principal is implementing new technology such as 1:1 i-pads and ST Math. The parents put in a lot of volunteer hours, making this a true neighborhood school. Can't say enough good things! I feel so fortunate to have had both of my kids attend Hopkinson!
This is an average school. Some great teachers...some not so great. Really miss the last principal who was genuinely friendly and approachable. No P.E. or art teachers which is just the way it goes. The teachers do not go out of their way to teach a little art since there is no art teacher, at least in my experience. My child had a great academic first grade experience, but she missed out on a loving, caring teacher.....such a shame. The teacher wouldn't even try to incorporate a little music even though the lesson was poetry, and the two go hand in hand! I have read in other reviews that this school is fine for average kids, but not o good for exceptional students. I agree wholeheartedly. The teachers by and large do not seem to have much up to date schooling on Autism Spectrum Disorders, unless they happen to have a child on the spectrum. It is a real shame that the district does not educate the teachers more about children with Special Needs.
This is our second year at Hopkinson Elementary and we LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! My daughter was in Kindergarten last year and had Mrs. Flynn, she is kind, sweet and GREAT with the kids and parents. She is there to offer your child the best possible start to school she possibly can. My younger daughter has her this year and can not be more excited about all that this year has in store. Dr. Stewart the Principal is second to NONE! She cares for each and every student and it shows. Parent involvement is what makes this school so special. Parents are there everyday giving their time, energy and money to the school. Parent support and involvment is what makes this school so special.
The parent involvement at Hopkinson keeps the school spirit high. A very friendly, close-knit community. Our first grade year, however, left a lot to be desired. Just remember, parents, if your child is doing packet after packet of workbook pages daily....this is not teaching. We were stuck with what I consider a lazy teacher who relied on workbook pages and worksheets as her routine. Not the well-rounded education that we thought we'd get. Be careful of what's going on in your child's room.
Hopkinson is a great school! The parent involvement is tremendous. We have great teachers who truly care about our children. FOH funds additional enrichment like our wonderful music teacher. This is in addition to our strong academics! Hopkinson is an all around great school!
Great school. My child had a great 1st grade teacher that really excelled him in his academics. The parent volunteering was huge. This is a good sign of the type of people you will be surrounded by.
The principal is very 'visible' and friendly too all. She is very proud of the students and positive with them. We just wish that the principal would take a good hard look at what is truly going on in some of her classrooms. We were told that all teachers work together and cover the same materials at each grade level, but we have noticed that the teaching in some rooms far outshines others. Our child's teacher, this year, definitely needs a mentor so that she can work on a new teaching style. The day-to-day paper&pencil seat work that we experienced this year was sad. So disappointing that she and other teachers are not supervised more closely.
My second child will graduate from Hopkinson this month and as a parent, I have been extremely pleased with the experience of both daughters. Parents SHOULD be engaged in their child's education and for those who feel the sole repsonsibility falls on the teachers and school, wake up! This is great school to start your child's educational growth with excellent teachers who are happy to be there and a very supportive community base that provides needed financial backing. Congrats to Dr. Stewart and the teachers on your recognition as an exceptional elementary school.
I agree with the 'middle' student review below. The school (as well as the district) isn't prepared to deal with students requiring some help. The principal is very happy to sit back on test scores and disregard these students. Teachers aren't given any direction on how to deal with these kids, nor do they want to deal with the extra work required. Be prepared to lose 2 months of learning prior to STAR testing, while students prep. to test. First rate music program and some really wonderful teachers, but if you're looking for your 'average' child to leave with self-confidence, look elsewhere.
This is a great school education wise and for parent involvement. But they really need more workers watching the K/1st graders at lunch and afterlunch recess. There are only 2 ladies watching at least 200 kids. There has been bullying at these times, and the lunch ladies do not see it. The parents donate so much money to this school, and some of it should be used for extra lunch people to watch our kids and keep them safe.
The school is a great, extraordinary even, school for the 'middle' child. However, if your child is exceptional (either positively or negatively), forget about it. They simply are not prepared. The teachers and counselors, as a rule, do not have the desire to put in any extra to help guide the stand-out student. In fact, they are hostile and make you feel bad for even asking for guidance. I do have names of teachers I would advise you to stay away from, but I believe that is against the guidelines of the site. All that being said, I would not hesitate to send another child to this school. I love the community and the involvement of the parents is second to none.
Unfortunately, it sometimes works against you if you are not a parent who demands to check in, (aka 'volunteer' in the classroom). What happened to trusting in what we have at Hopkinson, including a passionate and competent administrator. I agree that there are parents who need a reality check, but the staff also knows which parents are high maintanance.
I think this is a great school but is a little big. I am a little concerned about the Kindergartners being so close to the street.

Day 954. Ive done enough, tried, experimented, flirted, lusted after, jumped into bed with, high fived, tried on for size, ran screaming from, dallied, diddled, fumbled, fondled, tried my hand at, dabbled, mastered, half-assed and owned so many parts of this whole fitness dealio that I think I have finally got enough under my belt to allow myself to do something that I've never done.
Become Wholly Obsessed.
for 30 days.
30 days is nothing to me in this. Its a short spurt of insanity and I want it. Im going to do everything for 30 days.
I get to get obsessed!!!! I say often that my mind when it hooks on to something is like the sun through a magnifying glass. It burns a hole in front of me. Im not exaggerating.
But I feel like Im finally at a place and time where I could handle thirty days of beast mode.
I know balance and rest. I know super intense and I know self-discipline but this will challenge all of these things, because this is going to be 'my good bye weight-loss program out with a glorious bang'.
I have never done a challenge where I didnt have certain things I was focusing on.
I have never said to myself, let me see what I can accomplish in thirty days when my brain, heart and body are all onboard and foaming at the mouth.
I have never tried my absolute hardest just to see how much I can do. Just to see.
TIme to effing fix that. CANNONBALL!
Cardio has been on the backburner for me for several months now, really only running for fun or for a warm-up.
But now Im going to do regular cardio again, 3 days each week including a long run on the weekends. Im also going to improve both my mile time AND my 5 mile time.

Week 1 - June 1-7

My Nutrition is one part that I feel is going to be the biggest part of all of this. I dont have problems with overeating or bad food choices- but I am dying to know what I an adopt as part of my diet that will greatly effect my bf%- which is what this is all about for me.
^ my official bodyfat% formula I will be using to track myself, which lists me at 25.74 as of 5/17
I also used the kindle app on my phone to download a ton of fun vegetarian cookbooks and Ive gotten tons of healthy meal ideas from peeps @ MFP
In case you cant tell, Im going vegetarian as best I can for June.
Goddamn Im going to miss being a raging carnivwhore.
So let's see what happens.
Day 954. Ive done enough, tried, experimented, flirted, lusted after, jumped into bed with, high fived, tried on for size, ran screaming from, dallied, diddled, fumbled, fondled, tried my hand at, dabbled, mastered, half-assed and owned so many parts of this whole fitness dealio that I think I have finally got enough under my belt to allow myself to do something that I've never done.

pimp is a dirty word! you are so out of line! diaf!
Wednesday, September 07, 2011In response to a comment aimed at me that I found whilst googling my own challenge this morning:
This person says that words are not "just words". That, creating and participating in a challenge called "Pimp My Pride" shows little regard for the well-being of others and little awareness of the truly horrific conditions that trafficked sex workers experience around the world.
She said my challenge contributes to the normalization and acceptance of forced sexual labour. She compared it to encouraging people to bring back slavery. She said my challenge is equally inappropriate and disrespectful.That I glorify "pimping", but refuse to educate myself about human trafficking and make a donation to the UN's Global Initiativeto fight it.
The point! yes, missed it you have! Conclusions, yes, you have jumped to them. Yes, I found it on google, not spark, so I am not addressing a spark member, I am just responding to one of the many concerns elsewhere on the internet concerning my challenge
PIMP - originally an acronym for Put In My Pocket, or in other words, 'I've decided to own this'
-Later used to define a person who sells women for sexual favors (cue uproar from the uneducated, the blinded conservative, everyone that really wants to be angry, and everyone who loves to be offended).
-***Most recently used to commend objects or people.***
Ex: Popular Television Show, "PIMP MY RIDE", in which deserving members of the community, who regularly contribute to its betterment, that have fallen on hard times are rewarded by having their vehicle given a makeover, specifically one that is tailored to their efforts in their neighborhoods, ie teachers are given mobile offices to take their students outside for teaching, coaches given sporting equipment and storage room as well as the means to instruct outdoors, and the list goes on. Each episode consists of taking one car in poor condition and restoring it and customizing it.
My challenge is about taking one body in poor condition and restoring it and customizing it, because the owner of that body puts a lot of effort and love into their communities and they deserve to have a body strong enough to help them instead of hold them back.
So come yell in my face again about how this challenge is vulgar and condescending to women. And I will tell you that you have lost touch with pop culture and no longer understand that the word 'pimp' is no longer just a slang abbreviation for sex trafficking manager… just like 'cool' is not simply the temperature of your sugar and fat packed fridge.
Stop worrying so much about a word in a title and think, for one friggin second about the fact that people are mobilizing by the hundreds to exercise…and all you can do is whine, judge, complain, yell, hinder, discourage, HATE and point your little angry sausages at me.
I was an victim of assault slightly over 2 months ago (the length of this challenge) and this challenge is going to (hopefully) help me take back my power and confidence, help me heal from the hell of all of it, help me regain my sense of safety and the ablity to protect myself… and anyone that decides to throw sexual trafficking statistics in my face… well…. have I got a story to tell you. (that is, if you know how to listen in private as well as you can blast in public). AND next time im somewhere and need to beat someone up or climb or run away…. I will be able to handle business. And that dude will be injured. Although standing in an alley screaming I Dare You To Mug Me might not be the smartest minigoal to handle in a challenge.
Im sorry that my personal attempts at righting a wrong that was done to me this summer, is causing your underwear to wedge itself so uncomfortably in your derriere, that you find the need to blog about me and my unhealthy view of sexual abuse and my unconventional means of getting healthy, strong and fit… on sparkpeople, on wordpress, on tumblr, on blogspot, on blogger, on Facebook, on del.ic.io.us, etc… I know you think you are being cute, screaming my name where you think I cant hear you, tearing apart my character…
Can I ask you something? Like… a serious question.
The more people complain about me… the higher my chances grow of being permanently banned from sparkpeople. Now… we all know that not all people are motivated by the same things, God/Big Bang created/shaped us all as indivuduals and our experiences since then have guaranteed so.
So my question is, why is it so very important to you, that I be banned? Why is it so important to you that myself, and everyone similar enough to me to get results from the kind of motivation that Im pimping out… is wiped out?
Why is there an entire sect of humanity that you hate and that you want to see fail?
Really.. why are you so mean?
I welcome you to join this challenge and update the vehicle you ride around in all the time…your body.

In the wake of the revelation on Heidi Cullinan's blog today concerning discriminatory action by RWA and its subordinate chapter that runs the More Than Magic contest, I was moved to write this blog. For more on this, you can check out http://heidicullinan.wordpress.com/2012/02/03/rwa-shouldnt-be-in-the-business-of-discrimination/ and http://ryan-field.blogspot.com/2012/02/rwa-rwi-no-same-sex-entries-in-mtm.html?spref=tw
If you'll look to the side of this post, you'll notice the banner that says "Haters are NOT welcome here!" I said, I mean it, and I'm going to make that point in big letters right now.
To the administration of RWA and RWI:
Dear Sirs and Madams:
My name is J.S. Wayne. I am an erotic romance author based out of Las Vegas, Nevada, and have been working actively writing erotic romance for the past year and a half.
When I first received my contract, several people recommended I look into RWA membership. Tellingly, just as many people told me to steer clear. I make my own decisions, so I read the RWA bylaws, which to my way of thinking are far too restrictive and place too much onus on the membership. The few benefits RWA confers seem to be limited to what a good SEO/marketing campaign can accomplish. More importantly, there seemed to be a distinct lack of interest in erotic romance, particularly that which featured same sex couples.
While I understand and even applaud your willingness to afford a certain degree of autonomy to chapters such as RWI, who administer the MTM contest, I cannot in good conscience view your acceptance of their discriminatory behavior toward authors who write same-sex romance with anything but disgust. Your own bylaws specify romance as being between two individuals. If RWI wishes to conduct this contest under the aegis of RWA, it seems to me they should be willing to abide by the letter AND spirit of the overarching body's bylaws.
Personal discomfort is one thing, but when discomfort is dispensed in such a callous and ham-handed manner, it becomes discrimination. While I myself am a straight male, I write erotic romance featuring men and women in a number of settings and situations, including homosexual and heterosexual pairings and menages. The unfortunate treatment of certain of your members proves three things.
1) You are not concerned with retaining and increasing your membership. I have flirted with the idea of joining RWA several times, but in the wake of this outrageous situation, I cannot in good conscience do so. I predict a rash of resignations and refusals to rejoin RWA because of this.
2) You do not represent all authors equally. You are allowing a vocal few to speak for everyone, thereby denying romance authors the very forum and safe haven you promise them in your bylaws. The chapter is subordinate to RWA as long as they are conducting contests or any other business as an RWA chapter. By tacitly condoning their behavior by refusing to deal with it, you have demonstrated that RWA is not in fact what you profess it to be.
3) You are not interested in permitting those who write "other" types of romance to feel welcome. This is amply demonstrated by the phrasing of certain of your bylaws and punctuated by this situation. I've often heard that e-book authors and those who write erotic romance are looked down upon by your organization, but I would never have expected an organization that bills itself as professional and tolerant of all forms of romance to react in such a milquetoast fashion to the disgraceful refusal of RWI to allow same-sex pairings. By doing so, you have de facto stated you do not believe erotic romance or romance concerning same-sex couples IS in fact romance, a huge slap in the face to your membership, the industry, and the GLBTQA community as a whole.
In closing, I will say that I am not a member of RWA and have no intention of becoming one until such time as your bylaws are rewritten to prohibit discrimination against authors in any form. I hope you will see the error of your ways and apologize to the authors who you have offended and whose work you have so cavalierly dismissed. Until that day comes, you can be certain you needn't concern yourself about how you should spend my membership dues.
J.S. Wayne

Lawn grooming isn't one of those top of mind conversations, or blog posts for that matter, but in the case of the project Runningblade it's most certainly worth a look. If you couldn't tell it's suped-up lawn mower that has the potential to hit 100mph. Potential because that's a record – the current world record is 80mph – and on May 23rd the team behind the project will try to achieve that speed. Before you poo-poo it as a wolf in sheep's clothing, the lawn grooming tool is powered by a Kawasaki V-twin engine, which according to Autoblog is in fact designed for cutting grass.

The Uno Restaurant Holdings Corporation, with headquarters in West Roxbury, has hired Ian Baines as its new president and CEO, according to the Boston Business Journal.
The restaurant was first established in Texas, but was first franchised in Massachusetts.
Baines is replacing longtime CEO Frank Guidara, who will remain with the company as a part-time consultant until July of 2014, reported the Journal.
The 143-restaurant chain filed for bankruptcy in 2010, as it closed some of its restaurants. But the company has since come out of bankruptcy, according to wikipedia.

simulation training. I have recently designed and setup a
simulation course in one Trust and am involved in facilitating in a
number of other simulation courses throughout the region. I teach
on ATLS and am a member of faculty for two popular Final FRCA
Revision courses (Leicester and Southampton). I annually
attend the Royal College of Anaesthetist's Sixth Form Open Day,
which provides students with a realistic insight into a career in
medicine and Basic Life Support skills. Since 2011, I have
been Trainee Council Member for the Society of Educators in
Anaesthesia. Our society's role is to provide support and guidance
to the "shop floor" anaesthetist to ensure education, CPD and
training remains top priority, despite deanery and national changes
and when time and financial constraints are ever present. I am
delighted to be given this opportunity and look forward to liaising

always had an enthusiasm for teaching, and have been heavily
involved in this since undergraduate level when I set up a
student-led cadaveric anatomy course at Guys hospital as well as
running numerous clinical skills teaching events through my role as
vice-president of the surgical society. I have continued this
interest into my postgraduate training holding various roles. This
year I have created a new rolling orthopaedic teaching programme
for the

I can
de-mystify orthopaedics through well structured teaching programmes

back to a love of anatomy teaching and learning by maximising the
use of the cadaveric lab at Southampton General for all surgical

Dr Andy Claridge
I have spent much of my time since graduation
trying to be involved in education as much as possible. In
September 2008 I commenced on the
Masters in Education,
closely followed in 2009 with the appointment to a
position. I am currently a
clinical research fellow in gastroenterology having commenced a
in September 2009. I
am found in one of two places; the academic block of
Southampton General Hospital or at the driving end of a
colonoscope. Most or all of my educational activities at present
are taken up with my current interest which is undergraduate
assessment. I am a senior lecturer at the University of
Southampton, where I am 3rd year student assignment
co-ordinator. As the title suggests I currently co-ordinate 3rd
year assignments, and play a active role on the medical schools
exams and assessment committee. The
is an important role and one
that I recommend to anyone who wants to enhance their personal
development and develop their skills as a medical educator.
Dr Poppy Mackie
I became a
at the end of 2008, towards
the end of my training and I have found it the most inspiring group
to be part of. I feel privileged to still be part of the group,
despite becoming a consultant anaesthetist in Southampton in 2009.
The group offers a unique collection of individuals from a broad
background and who all share a true passion and enthusiasm for all
things educational.
As a trainee, I was involved in the
introduction of anaesthesia to the Foundation Programme in
Portsmouth. This was at the time of the introduction of

very popular amongst trainees and is still going strong. I

Winchester University as a trainee and am now battling with the
dissertation to complete the
. I carried out an educational research
project last year supported by Wessex Deanery looking at
educational supervisor development in Wessex. I am continuing my
interest in educational supervision as the topic of my
dissertation. I have become deeply
involved in education as a consultant and am currently enjoying the
challenge of taking on the role of College Tutor in my department.
I am course director for the Wessex Final
and am involved in teaching on and organising a number of other
courses. I have been on the organising committee for the Wessex
Medical Education Conference for the last two years and would
highly recommend this conference to all trainees interested in
Being involved in education is the most
rewarding and stimulating experience. It is the best professional
development going and I am thankful for the inspiration of the
Mr James Manners
I have always found good educators to be inspiring. Prior
to my university training I had worked with St John Ambulance as a
cadet instructor and leader - I found working with and teach youth
members of the organisation extremely rewarding. While I was at
university I had several training and organisational roles,
outside medicine, working with the students union in
As an junior doctor I was appointed as a Fellow in Medical
education, at trust level, in Southampton. This role led me to
develop a new training programme for Foundation Trainees. I
have subsequently become involved as a faculty member on the
Tomorrows Teachers course. I have been a regular member of the
faculty for four years and was part of the group that designed
the Tomorrows Teachers 2 course. At present I am helping
to co-ordinate regional teaching for the Urology training
scheme, regularly speak at
training days and courses (such as the

Product Information
- Bright Starts Having a Ball Cluck & Learn Barn from Kids II
- Part of the Bright Starts brand
- We recommend this product for ages 6 months and up
- 3 AA batteries required TTPM trusts
What It Is
What It Is
Tactile play, put-and-take play, and object manipulations are important components of play, particularly for developing infants. That's why the classic ball, sized right for small hands, is included in many interactive toys targeted to the youngest kids. The Having a Ball Cluck & Learn Barn capitalizes on that play pattern to create an engaging interactive toy for infants. In Silly Sounds mode, drop the chick character balls into the top of Mother Hen to hear animal sounds and see lights. The chick balls will pop out of one of three different openings at the bottom of the barn. In Learning mode, drop the chick balls into the top of Mother Hen to hear Mother Hen count out loud. Press the three light-up buttons to hear animal sounds and names. There are two barn doors that also make noise when you open and close them. Kids can put the balls in the door and take them out. When playtime is over the balls can be stored inside the barn.
Why It's Fun
In addition to the tactile, manipulative play, toys such as the Cluck & Learn Barn are great ways to help children develop fine motor skills. The put-and-take play, which kids love, is great for developing dexterity and coordination. Kids will like the surprise of not knowing out of which opening the chick balls will come, and the silly sounds, music, and lights will keep kids engaged as they play.
Who It's For
The Cluck & Learn Barn is for ages 6—36 months.
What to Be Aware of
This comes with three AA batteries, but these are for demo purposes, and Kids II recommends replacing them before you play for best results.
One of the key things for parents and caregivers to remember about this mode of play is that even though it looks repetitive, each time a child places the ball, he or she is making new connections about cause and effect and the beginnings of understanding their role in making things happen.
Bright Starts Having a Ball products are only available at Toys "R" Us.

Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Will and Hand are burdened by $38,000 and the memory of their friend Jack. Taking a week out of their lives, they decide to travel around the world to give the money away. They can?t really say why they?re doing it, just that it needs to be done. Perhaps it?s something to do with Jack?s death ? perhaps they?ll find the reason later. But as their plans are frustrated, twisted and altered at every step and the natives prove far from grateful to their benefactors, Will and Hand find that the world is an infinitely bigger, more surreal and exhilarating place than they ever realised. In fact, it?s somewhere to get lost in...
"Endearing, funny...the prose is high on energy and Eggers's talents make it worth the trip" Guardian
Will and Hand, two young Americans, decide to travel around the world handing over large amounts of money to those who need it. This trip will, they hope, be an answer to the overwhelming grief they feel after their friend's death. But, as they soon find out, nothing is quite so simple.

Bonhoeffer's Birthday
The Relevance of Costly Grace
Topics: Apologetics, Books, Christian Living, Freedom of Religion/Speech, Issues_HHS, Life Issues, Metaxas_Links, Religion & Society, Worldview
Spurgeon was mentioned above. He certainly spoke cleartly to the issues of the day. And his comments are just as relevant for us evangelicals, today:
I find the objections on the piouseye.com site--and the underlying "logic"--to be, frankly, ridiculous. I guess we'd better not use the word "love" either, since I've heard liberals use it too!
I have no qualms about having signed the Manhattan Declaration.
Signing Manhattan Declaration
Re: "So let me ask you—are you willing to count the cost and sign the Manhattan Declaration?" Yes I am, provided signing does not constitute an endorsement of all the wording: http://piouseye.com/eyesite/2013/02/manhattan-declaration-not-perfect-but-worth-signing/.
I too read the book and loved it. I was inspired and motivated to be more vocal and not sit by and allow the truth of Gods word to go unchallenged in my arena. When a topic is being discussed I engage in the conversation and always bring Gods word into the conversation in one way or another. Not to act-Is to act. I love that statement. I dont want to be guilty of not acting. I think Bonhoffer was an extrodinary human being and I find myself wondering could I have endure for a day what he endured for years.....I pray I would be worthy.
Bonhoeffer's prophetic voice speaks on
First, thank you, Eric, for researching and writing your amazing biography of Bonhoeffer, which I am engrossed in at the moment, too. He has fascinated and inspired me for years. It is so enlightening to read more of the history and his letters, etc.
I was compelled to do a little research myself recently, when I came across Bonhoeffer's reference in your book (p. 118) to Matthew 11:12 in a letter he wrote to Henry Louis Henriod, head of the ecumenical World Alliance. Like many Christians, I have wondered about what Jesus meant when he spoke of "violent men" seeking to take the kingdom by force. The context of Bonhoeffer's use of that verse was pretty clear. It led me an 1859 sermon of Spurgeon's, called "Holy Violence." What a delightful read it was! And how perfectly in tune with what Bonhoeffer was saying in that letter. Just one of many rewarding moments that have already come to me through reading the book.
It is my hope and prayer that you will encourage hosts of people to reignite the prophetic vision of Dietrich Bonhoeffer. I signed the Manhattan Declaration a few years ago, by the way.
I'm glad there will be a live simulcast on March 4 of your upcoming tour since you will not be near my area (Lynchburg, VA).
On another unrelated note, it was neat to see your endorsement of my friend Karen Swallow Prior's book, "Booked: Literature in the Soul of Me." She taught both of our daughters at Liberty University, and her book is a delight to my English major's heart. Hers is another contemporary voice with God's anointing, I think.
I am reading the Bonhoeffer Book at the moment and have just yesterday been thinking, that the church here in Germany might have been worse since then.
There has been so much damage been done on the german self esteem, that it is really sad to watch.
Abortion is hugely done in Germany (more than 100.000 babies killd each year since dacades), homosexual Pastors are living in the homes provided by their (our) church and then pastoring their congergation and the children (of course) as well. And lots and lost of divorced pastors are there as well.
While reading what you are writing here, it seems to me, that the church in Germany and America might be very similar. In America you might be more "religious" than here in Germany, but there are not more believers than here, I suppose (proportionally).
So there are lots of work to do to tell the people, who Christ is and what kind of freedom he has in mind for us.
Be blessed

Check this out!!!!!
Real close to where I hunt:
thats a huge deer
Wow that's a giant
We will find out!!!
That feller was shaking and he wasn't fixing to shoot! That's a huge deer. I'd be lucky not to fall out of my stand, if that one came thru, after have a heart attack.
WOW! What a great looking buck.
Found this at Deer and Deer Hunting on line:
"Is This The New Record Typical?
Regular Deer & Deer Hunting contributor Scott Bestul tracked down the story to one of the most incredible bucks weve seen in quite some time. The buck appears to be a mainframe 7x7 with some sticker points. The buck is living in the famed farmland of Buffalo County, Wis. According to Ted Marum, a respected whitetail outfitter, guide and big-buck hunter from that area, the buck had a 200-plus-inch rack a year before this video was shot. He is jaw-dropping to say the least! Marum reports. One of my guides filmed this buck two years ago in the same spot and the footage was awesome, full daylight and only a 150 yards away. He was a 200-inch 6x5 at the time with a small fork on the top of his right G-2 and a small kicker off the side of the G-3 on the same side. His G-2s and G-3s were 15- to 16 inches long.
For an exclusive look at video of this buck, check out this link.

Most credit card companies offer chargeback protection for cardholders who feel they have been signed up for subscription programs in error. However, investigators note that it can sometimes take months or years for some cardholders to spot the companies' small, routine transactions on crowded credit card statements. Publicity from Cuomo's investigation has already caused some retailers to remove themselves from the web marketing programs, while other partners now require customers to re-enter credit card data manually before confirming new subscriptions.
