Well I guess it's been a long time since I last blogged. And to give you an update my friends, I'm kind of having an incredible time with myself while everyone's enjoying their summer vacation. I'm actually enjoying this as I'm having a long distance relationship with temptations.
I spent my Holy Week reading Message in a Bottle and The Zahir and I tell you guys, I learned a lot about life and love. And now, you may wonder what am I doing at home: Nothing but a great time having movie marathon and catching up with 90210. For months, I waited for this to happen - to spend quality time with myself alone, to unwind, to reflect and especially to love myself. Everytime I catch a glimpse of myself in front of the mirror, I pause and try to appreciate what I see. I fix my hair, I stare at my eyes, my lips, my nose, my face. I get time to review and embrace myself. I am loving loving myself. I don't care about my body, all I do is eat what I want and make sure that even my soul is not hungry. I appreciate myself than ever before. I can't say that I'm happy happy. This is just the first step.
And now just a random thought: This year that I am turning 21, I noticed that I am really becoming an adult by the thoughts that pops in my head. Is it normal to not picture yourself raising kids? Are you supposed to at least imagine what would your child look like? I wanna ask my grandma that if she was my age, she thought of having children and what would it be like. Well, I didn't ask her. I don't know but maybe it's not my top priority. Is it normal to think of that way though?
Thanks for taking time to read my short update and now, if you will excuse me, I have a lot of catching up to do with my social network. I can't picture myself being an anti-social either though I haven't been to any place since the school year ended.
Don't worry, I've loads of things to post. They're saved on my computer. It's just that this is not yet the time. More pictures and thoughts and ideas soon! I'll keep you posted! xx

All the ballyhoo wasn't for a new high-speed detachable quad whisking skiers to a lofty summit. Instead, Wednesday's brief ceremony at Bretton Woods in New Hampshire's White Mountains was for a new old-school stalwart of skiing — the T-bar.
The 2,000-foot lift accesses glades on Mount Stickney and empties near a new solar-powered 600-square-foot cabin with amenities such as indoor wood stove and outdoor fireplace, food service, and a view of neighboring Mount Rosebrook.

Book Description:The main character in the story is Peter Miller, who at the age of 46, unwittingly becomes a Male Escort after moving to Brighton to get away from his second wife Diana. He is six foot tall with shoulder length black hair, a very handsome man with deep blue eyes and very broad shoulders; in all honesty a very civilized man who hides the mental scars from a tortured childhood. Peter Miller accidentally finds www.Champagne&Chocolates.com website offering opportunities for mature men to become Male Escorts; he applies to the website by email with all his personal details; is readily accepted along with twenty other available and very gorgeous black & white male escorts. Over the following months, Peter Miller learns the ropes of his new and rather erotic vocation, as he tries to fulfil all of the passionate needs of the female clientele, but along the way he also desperately tries to understand exactly what it is these rich women really want from him!

New York City is full of bus stations, train stations, subway stations, and now one city councilman's office is adding "lactation stations" to that list!
So you're in downtown Bed Stuy, Brooklyn shopping and you need to breast feed or express milk but you don't want to do it in public.
Well now you have a private place to go.
You can head to the community lactation station.
This is a room equipped with two comfortable chairs and a breast pump.
Brooklyn's first 'community lactation room, is getting a great response.
City Councilman Robert Cornegy and his wife came up with the idea after their personal experiences.
The couple has six children and had gotten negative comments when his wife breast fed in public.
So now the councilman has a lactation room at his office in Bed Stuy where any mom can comfortably and privately breast feed or express milk.
They can even store it in a refrigerator while they shop or run errands.
The councilman says, so far, about 50 moms have used the room.
Councilman Cornegy is hoping the idea catches on with other elected officials, who will do the same in their districts.

Rules of the Game - An Exhibition of Undergraduate Work
29th May to 16th June 2010
Works from Christ Church's Fine Art undergraduates Cara George, Claire-Louise Shifrin and James Sutton, from the Ruskin School of Art were on display.
A limited edition Napkin in Tube - designed by James Sutton after a drawing by Verocchio from the Gallery collection, was also on sale at £6.50.

The Firing Line - Depictions of Conflict in the Collection of General John Guise
25th May - 29th August 2010
The 34 drawings in the exhibition came from the collection of General John Guise (1682-1765), the Picture Gallery's main benefactor. Guise combined his profession as a soldier with his passion for Old Master drawings. It is therefore tempting to assume that he might have had a special interest in military scenes. Unfortunately, this assumption is difficult to verify, but this exhibition showed some outstanding drawings which he might have studied in more detail and left it to the viewer to decide if our collectors' fascination with war can be detected in his collection of drawings.

Objects of Devotion - Five Paintings of the Madonna and Child
20th March - 30th May 2010
The depiction of the Madonna and Child is the most popular devotional image. Five rarely seen works from the Christ Church collection allowed visitors to re-acquaint themselves with this familiar theme and to re-visit the Madonna and Child paintings of our primary collection, by artists such as Piero della Francesca, Annibale Carracci and many more.

After Michelangelo
16th February - 16th May 2010
Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475 - 1564) is regarded as the most influential artists of all times. His fresco of the Last Judgement in the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican is the most replicated work of art. Artists from Raphael to Tintoretto copied his works in order to further their own artistic ideas. This exhibition brought together thirty-three drawings from the Christ Church collection of Old Masters to trace and understand Michelangelo's genius through his followers, imitators and admirers.
Updated: Wednesday 9th February 2011 14:21
The Poetry of Draped Figures
2nd November - 7th February 2010
How drapery and clothes enrobe the human figure and how to depict the varied qualities of material was and remains one of the challenges in art. With more than thirty old master drawings this exhibition explored a seemingly mundane topic and illustrated its richness and creative power. Works on display included Leonardo da Vinci's Study of a Sleeve and drapery studies by Figino, one of Leonardo's followers. Despite their practical qualities all the drawings - in their rendering of the folds, play with light and shade and lines that follow or defeat the imagined body underneath - can equally be regarded as abstract poetic forms.
Updated: Wednesday 9th February 2011 14:23
A Stylish Style – Art between Renaissance and Baroque
12th June – 4th October 2009
Christ Church's collection contains a large number of drawings from the mid-sixteenth century. The importance of that period in art was only fully recognised in the twentieth century and with this recognition the treasures of Christ Church became focal points in the study of the era. Jacopo Pontormo's preparatory drawing for his Lamentation in the church of Santa Felicita in Florence is probably the most famous example of this kind. More than thirty drawings were on display in this exhibition by artists such as Vasari, Salviati, Allori, Pontormo and many more.

and 2004, one in five women aged 18-29 years of age and almost a quarter of those in their thirties and forties reported no physical activity in 2004 (Figure 2-15) (CDC, 2005). Similarly, barely half of women of childbearing age met the guideline in Healthy People 2010 for aerobic activity in 2005, although the prevalence has increased significantly since 2001 (Figure 2-16) (CDC, 2007).
According to other available data, in 2000, 15.8 percent of pregnant women met minimum physical activity recommendations (Evenson et al., 2004) and only 6 percent of pregnant women met recommendations for vigorous physical activity (Petersen et al., 2005). In these analyses, physical activity varied by maternal race/ethnicity, age, and education; there was some evidence that physical activity was lower among women who worked outside the home. In 2005, almost half of white, non-Hispanic U.S. women of all ages met the Healthy People 2010 objective for physical activity; only 36 percent of black, non-Hispanic women, 40 percent of Hispanic women, and 47 percent of other-race women did so (CDC, 2007). Physical activity increased with education, from 37 percent among women who did not

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - A Lubbock teenager agrees to dismiss certain people from his lawsuit against the state of Texas. James D'Cruz and the National Rifle Association are suing Texas in Lubbock federal court. On Friday D'Cruz agreed to drop Texas Public Safety Commission Board members from his lawsuit. The Texas DPS Director Steven McCraw is still, however, named in the lawsuit.
D'Cruz claims it's unconstitutional for Texas to prohibit concealed carry permits for persons between the ages of 18 through 20. The case has made national news several times. Just a few days ago the Washington Post wrote an editorial critical of D'Cruz and the NRA for suing Texas.

How to Fall in Love
- Wednesday, August 22, 2012
Editor's note: The following is a report on the practical application of Joe Beam's book, The Art of Falling in Love (Howard Books, 2012).
You don't have to fall into love haphazardly; you can find love intentionally. That's because falling in love isn't a mysterious event that's beyond your control. It's a process that you can reliably understand and apply to your life. When you follow the steps to falling in love, you can find a romantic partner if you're single, keep love fresh if you're married, or bring back love you've lost for your spouse.
Here's how you can fall in love, on purpose:
Recognize the three components of love. The three basic aspects of love are: intimacy (openness and vulnerability to the person you love), passion (a desire for oneness with the person you love), and commitment (doing what it takes to make your love relationship last).
Learn the four basic steps of falling in love. Those steps are: attraction (drawing closer to a person you find attractive), acceptance (growing to care for a person whom you accept as he or she is, and who accepts you as you really are), attachment (coming to care enough for a person that you commit yourself to a relationship with that person), and aspiration (reaching the deepest level of love, in which you cooperate with the person you love so that you encourage each other to pursue desires and dreams).
Ask God to help you see yourself as He sees you. In order to begin the process of falling in love, you must first believe that you're attractive. You're attractive to God, and when you pray for help viewing yourself from His perspective, you can gain the confidence you need to be attractive to other people.
Understand the dynamics of what attracts people to each other in romantic relationships. Romantic attraction results from one or more of these areas: physical (someone whose body you find attractive), intellectual (someone who stimulates and interests your mind), emotional (someone who generates positive emotions within you), and spiritual (someone who inspires you or who shares your beliefs and values). If you take good care of all four areas in your life, you'll be romantically attractive to others.
Be honest about who you are, and accept others as they are. Let your romantic partner or spouse see who you truly are; openly share your real thoughts and feelings with him or her. When the person you love does the same, give him or her full acceptance, love and respect. Love each other for who you both really are. Refrain from trying to control or manipulate one another to be a different way. Instead, ask God to help you love the person as God loves you: with grace.
Follow God, not your feelings. You may easily develop intense romantic feelings for various people you encounter throughout your life. Too often, when that happens, people think that they must be falling in love with the person for whom they feel that way, and they have affairs and leave their marriages in order to indulge their feelings, only to find those feelings fade away (typically, intense romantic feelings last between six months and three years before dissipating). Decide to place your trust in God – who never changes – rather than in your changing feelings. Follow God's plan for love: marriage, in which a deeper, lasting love can replace the initial romantic attraction after it fades.
Commit to the person you love. You can continue to experience passionate love for someone, no matter how long you've known each other, if you intentionally and habitually pursue attitudes and actions that bond you together in love. You can bond through: respect (accepting the person you love as he or she truly is, rather than the image you've fantasized about him or her becoming), fulfillment (meeting each other's needs – physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually), spirituality (sharing beliefs, values, purpose, and meaning with each other), and passion (building unity with each other by sharing life with enthusiasm).

text: When The Band speaks best, most clearly, it almost always uses Levon Helm's voice. In "The Weight," Rick Danko sings just one verse and Levon takes that away from him with a yowled "yeah!" that's among the three or four greatest interjections in rock … It is Helm's voice, dripping with southern-bred bitterness, that makes "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" genuinely tragic. It could be argued that in Helm, Robertson found his perfect vehicle. But maybe it was Helm who found in the more glib and articulate Robertson a marvelous mouthpiece. Who whispered the secrets of the American Dream in Robertson's young ear as he drifted through the Ozark wilderness? Who pointed him toward that wilderness in the first place? Levon Helm. And if all this is true, whose vision is this that we're hearing?

6 Ways to Ease Back to School Transitions
Wednesday, 27 August 2014 00:13
Back to School! Lazy summer days and couch potato nights are over everyone; it is time to transition back to school! As a teacher, transitions are a quintessential part of planning each day. How to smoothly transition from one activity to the next is strategically planned in order to keep peace and predictability in the environment. Some of you may have returned from vacations, spent weeks in the sun, or had an enriched summer at Dancing Moose. No matter what the case, we have all had unique different experiences.

Summer at Dancing Moose
Thursday, 24 April 2014 16:20
What would happen if you didn't exercise your brain for 3 months? It is referred to as "summer academic loss" or "summer slide" and it's real! Studies have shown that children enrolled in summer programs are two years ahead of their peers by the time they reach fifth grade. It's easy to see the importance of continuing to develop critical thinking skills, academic confidence and cognitive ability throughout the summer. This summer, Dancing Moose is offering a full-time Summer Academic Program, and week long summer Moose Camp. 2014 Summer Academic Program » 2014 One Week Summer Camps »

Leave The Past In The Past: The Turner/Murdoch Rivalry Story
Leaving the past in the past is hard to do in any area of life, but itŌĆÖs one of the most important strengths of a successful entrepreneur. When you have had issues with a company or individual, itŌĆÖs mutually beneficial for you and for them to work out the differences and move forward. ItŌĆÖs ok to dislike someone and itŌĆÖs even ok to disapprove of anotherŌĆÖs practices, but donŌĆÖt let the past get in the way of making money, attracting customers or expanding your own business. Regardless of problems in the past, take a deep breath and move forward.
One of the most famous businessmen in the world is Ted Turner, the founder of American cable television channels TBS, TNT and CNN, former Vice Chairman of Time Warner and former owner of the Atlanta Braves and World Championship Wrestling sports organizations. For decades, Turner also held a grudge against rival media mogul Rupert Murdoch, whose businesses include cable network FOX News.
In 2003, after Turner called Murdoch a ŌĆ£warmongerŌĆØ and criticized FOX News during a speech, British newspaper The Guardian recounted that their decades-long rivalry had begun during a 1983 yacht race, when a boat sponsored by Murdoch crashed into and sank TurnerŌĆÖs boat. Turner was so enraged that he had challenged Murdoch to a fight, even offering to televise it. ŌĆ£When Mr. Murdoch launched Fox News in 1996 as a direct competitor to CNN, Mr. Turner said he was ŌĆślooking forward to squishing Rupert like a bugŌĆÖ,ŌĆØ The Guardian continues. ŌĆ£He also compared his rival to Adolf Hitler. ŌĆśHow do you make peace with a mega-maniac?ŌĆÖ Mr. Turner once said of Mr. Murdoch.ŌĆØ
Like many of us, as years go by, Turner has softened. Known as a staunch supporter of environmental causes, as a land preservationist, and as a philanthropist ŌĆō he once gave $1 billion to help the U.N. create the United Nations Foundation charity ŌĆō Turner said on his 70th birthday in 2008 that he had made peace with Murdoch. Turner had read that MurdochŌĆÖs company NewsCorp ŌĆ£was going greenŌĆØ and had sent Murdoch an encouraging and congratulatory letter. Murdoch wrote back and the two eventually had lunch together at one of TedŌĆÖs Montana Grill restaurants.
In any business, not just at the heights of international corporations, learning to leave the past behind us and move forward is a sign of true professionalism. It doesnŌĆÖt matter if youŌĆÖre running your own small business, managing a franchise for a national company, or just trying to get along with customer service representatives over the phoneŌĆ"you will face conflict. ItŌĆÖs how you deal with conflict that matters, though. Most importantly, you must strive to leave the past in the past. Do what is needed for your business today and let the rest be.

'I hope there's no jellyfish'
'I'll give you a ride if I see you again'and he rode off with two girls, into the night.
Tonight I sat with a man named Ryan, although he did not want me to take his photo I will share his story.
'I was imprisoned after I was caught in someones house and stealing their belonging I don't even remember doing it, I think it was the drugs that got to me. I missed my mothers funeral while i was inside. I couldn't deal with it, so when I got out I travelled from perth all the way to sydney, brisbane, cairns, Adelaide and so on and i've been clean from meth for almost a month. Now I'm trying to make my way home; to perth."
'I can not imagine what you must have gone through but it sounds like you have had some great and sad moments in life'
'Yeah, now I'm just sitting here hoping to get a few dollars to get on a flight back to perth.. to face the music.'After my conversation with Ryan I spoke to the aboriginals in the photo to help Ryan out as they counter their spare change.
On my planet?Himalayas for sure.
"we played tonight to support pussy-riot and for an anti sexist campaign. It's something we need to push towards as women are still being oppressed'
'My passion is music and if I'm able to please someone or make them happy with something I have created it a positive for everyone.'

Atrial Fibrillation (cont.)
A healthy lifestyle, proper nutrition, treatment for high blood pressure, and other measures can prevent atrial fibrillation by protecting you from heart disease. Manage your stress, exercise regularly, control your blood pressure, and do not smoke.
For tips on starting a walking program, see:
Eat a heart-healthy diet. This includes eating at least two servings of fish each week, particularly oily fish such as salmon, trout, and tuna. For more information, see Heart Disease: Eating a Heart-Healthy Diet.
Avoid medicines, alcohol, and stimulants—such as caffeine or nicotine—that may contribute to the development of atrial fibrillation.
Take antibiotics when directed to do so by your doctor to lower your chance of getting a heart infection (endocarditis). Infection in the heart may lead to atrial fibrillation. For more information, see the topic Endocarditis.
Check your heartbeat regularly. To learn how to check your pulse, see taking your pulse. If you notice that your heartbeat does not have a regular rhythm, talk to your doctor. Checking your heartbeat is important, because many people do not have symptoms of atrial fibrillation. Ask your doctor how often you should check your heartbeat. Once a month might be right for you.

The role of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in the subprime lending crisis will be fleshed out in court thanks to lawsuits filed today against former executives of the quasi-governmental agencies. Bloomberg has the basic facts about the suits:
Daniel Mudd, the former chief executive officer of Fannie Mae, and Richard Syron, ex-CEO of Freddie Mac, were sued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for understating by hundreds of billions of dollars the subprime loans held by the agencies. …
In the lawsuits, the SEC said Syron, Mudd and others understated the lenders' exposure to subprime mortgage loans. From 2007 to 2008, Freddie Mac executives said the company's exposure was between $2 billion and $6 billion when it was actually as high as $244 billion, according to one SEC complaint. From 2006 to 2008, Washington-based Fannie Mae executives said the firm's exposure to subprime mortgage and reduced documentation loans was about $4.8 billion when it was nearly 10 times

The program aims to train pilots to do more than just to fly airplanes. It puts them on a path to become commercial pilots who could help fill a growing shortage of commercial pilots.
The program will provide academic accreditation recognized by the Higher Learning Commission and by Choice Aviation. It will be the only program of its kind in the Basin, and in much of Wyoming as well. The college will provide the general education part of the degree; Choice Aviation will provide the flight and aeronautics training.
Because of the training and education provided, pilots who complete the program could qualify to become commercial pilots once they have completed 500 hours of flight time required under Federal Aeronautics Administration regulations. That is far less than the 1,500 hours of flight time required for pilots without that specialized training.
Pilots who graduate from the program will have 250 hours of flight experience. That means they will need to complete another 250 hours before qualifying to pilot commercial flights. That will be a much more feasible task than trying to acquire the 1,250 hours required for pilots who just complete training at a flight ground school.
Because it meets needs of students, industry and the public, the aeronautics program is expected to be a good draw for the college. And, because it will be an expensive program, the NWC Foundation is raising money for scholarships to help aeronautics students.
We applaud the organizers of the new program and those who forged the partnership for their vision and foresight. We also commend the foundation for its efforts to make the program affordable for students.

A gentle breeze
on golden face,
eyes dark,
like ace of spades.
Your footprint in sand
I touch,
a wanting more potent
than lust.
Your hair that dances
in time,
to the ebbs and flows
of tide.
A smile I long to kiss
and taste,
to have one chance
I'd fall from grace.

Providence firefighters were called to 183/185 Eastwood Ave around 7 Thursday morning for a report of heavy fire. When they arrived crews found a 3-story apartment building heavily involved on the rear side wall. The fire extended to all 3 floors.
Crews were able to put the fire out quickly and keep it from spreading from to neighboring homes.
Deputy Assistant Fire Chief Joseph R. Desmarais tells ABC6 News that one firefighter suffered a back injury while battling the fire. He was taken to the hospital and is expected to be okay.
The cause of the fire is under investigation. Officials will not say if the fie is considered suspicious, but that there were no utilities connected to the building which has been boarded up for some time.

Macallan Distillery is a malt whisky distillery situated in Scotland's Speyside whisky region. The old still house was re-commissioned in 2008 and now Macallan Distillery operates with two still houses sheltering twenty-one copper stills.

Seth MacFarlane, Emma Stone to Announce 85th ACADEMY AWARD Nominations Today
Nominations for the 85th Academy Awards will be announced by the show's host, Seth MacFarlane, and actress Emma Stone today, January 10. This will be the first time since 1972 that an Oscar show host has participated in the nominations announcement.
MacFarlane and Stone will unveil the nominations at a 5:30 a.m. PT news conference at the Academy's Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills, where hundreds of media representatives from around the world will be gathered.
Since the first nominations announcement in 1964, the Academy president has been joined by one or more co-announcers at the event. This year the Academy will break with tradition when MacFarlane, who was named Oscar show host in October, joins Stone on Oscar nominations morning. Charlton Heston (1972) was the only other show host to participate in the nominations announcement.
Stone starred in the 2011 Best Picture nominee "The Help" and the summer release "The Amazing Spider-Man." Her other film credits include "Superbad," "Zombieland," "Easy A" and "Crazy, Stupid, Love." Stone will be seen in "Gangster Squad" later this month and in "The Croods," due out in March.
Nominations information for all categories will be distributed to news media in attendance and via the Internet on the official Academy Awards website, www.oscar.com.
Academy Awards for outstanding film achievements of 2012 will be presented on Oscar Sunday, February 24, 2013, at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center, and televised live on the ABC Television Network. The Oscar presentation also will be televised live in more than 225 countries worldwide.

VALPARAISO | Pleas of not guilty were entered Friday on behalf of a 36-year-old Portage man accused of molesting a 3-year-old boy.
Eric Knowles, of 6175 Abercorn, made an initial court appearance on a Class A felony count of child molesting, which carries a potential penalty of 20 to 50 years behind bars.
Porter Superior Court Judge Bill Alexa set a $75,000 cash bond in the case and scheduled a status hearing for Aug. 2 to determine if Knowles has an attorney.
A trial was set for Nov. 18, with other preliminary hearings Sept. 13 and Oct. 11.
Knowles is accused of molesting the boy between Jan. 1, 2012, and May 24, 2013, according to charging information.
The boy revealed the abuse in April 2012 by making sexually suggestive comments while being bathed by his mother, police said. The mother reported the boy had been wetting himself, was having stomach problems and had been pulling his pants down around the house.
When police tried to interview Knowles at the time, they said his attorney refused to cooperate. The boy said he had been abused, but refused to give police details, according to court documents.
Police said they were contacted again in May 2013 by the boy's mother and was told he had shared details of the abuse with a therapist. The boy, now a year older, reportedly told investigators he had been molested by Knowles.

This character dresses like a Rummage Sale Reject, and they're fine with that.
They will wear plaid and stripes together. They'll wear white after labor day. They'll wear neon green with orange. And the worst part of it is... they do it intentionally. These are the characters who really don't care if they have a Limited Wardrobe or an Unlimited Wardrobe, they'll dress like a Rummage Sale Reject either way. Please note, this is when their lack of fashion sense is noted In-Universe. This is not when the fandom or the viewers disagree with the character's fashion choice. There are two types of this.
Oblivious To FashionThe character is completely oblivious to the rules of fashion, and could not dress themselves without the assistance of a patient fashionista, a tailor, and a doorstopper of a "How To" guide.
Ignores FashionThis character does know the rules of fashion, but intentionally ignores it all, either to spite the status quo as a form of rebellion, or as a form of asserting their individuality. Will probably involve Impossibly Tacky Clothes. See also, Tacky Tuxedo. Examples:

National Bird Day 2014: Vermilion Flycatcher (Pyrocephalus rubinus)
In celebration of National Bird Day 2014, Barry Kent MacKay, Senior Program Associate for Born Free USA and lifelong bird enthusiast, is writing a special six-part blog series in December and January where he will describe some of his favorite avian species. Below is the third installment.
There are at least 429 species of birds in the family Tyrannidae, the so-called Tyrant-Flycatchers. All of them are restricted to the Western Hemisphere, ranging from northern Alaska to the tip of Tierra del Fuego, and including the West Indies, the Galapagos Islands (where two species breed), and the Falkland Islands (where one species breeds). There are probably quite a few "hidden" species – now considered subspecies of known species, but who should probably be considered full species, as defined by biologists. The term "tyrant" derives from the fact that many, including the Eastern and Western Kingbirds so familiar to us across nearly all of temperate North America, will boldly chase much larger birds, such as hawks and crows, from their nesting territories.
It is safe to suggest that the majority of us have not heard of most species of Tyrant Flycatchers, given that so many species are small, drab of colour, and found in Central and South American forests and jungles. In honor of this year's National Bird Day, we are, in part, featuring the family as representing birds you don't see in zoos or pet stores because, when caught for the international trade in "exotic" birds, they tend to die. The other two species, the Royal Flycatcher and the Long-tailed Tyrannulet, are not well known, generally speaking.
But it is different with the Vermilion Flycatcher. If you live in the desert country of eastern California, Arizona, New Mexico, or western Texas, you probably know, and enjoy the sight of, this brilliantly colored little bird. The male is an intense scarlet-red, tempered by a sooty blackish-brown back, wings, and narrow mask through the eyes. He is not shy, often sitting on the tips of ocotillo wands or on top of cacti or yucca leaf blades, and darting up into bright blue skies in search of flying insects. The female is more modestly hued, with a brown back and creamy white underparts, with fine streaking on the breast, and a variable degree of reddish or pink wash on the belly.
These little birds have a huge range that extends south as far as the northern Pampas of Argentina. A distinct subspecies is found only in the Galapagos Islands, as is a second distinct subspecies, restricted to a single island, San Cristobal (Chatham).
The nest is cup-shaped and rather unsubstantial-looking. Two or three eggs are laid, and only the female incubates, though dad will help mom to feed the nestlings.
The birds in the U.S. and northern Mexico will migrate south into tropical Central America for the winter. Birds from the southernmost latitudes of their range will also migrate toward the tropics in the austral autumn. The biggest threat they face is loss of habitat, but there is indication that they adapt to some change, and can be found on golf courses and in parks. Like other members of the family, they are aggressive in chasing larger birds from near their nests, appearing as fiery of temperament as they are in color.

Do we, do we shelter all our dreams On our fears, when we, when we listen to our fears Oh no please Do we, do we shelter all our dreams Oh no please.
