10 Steps to Overcoming Hoarding
Maintaining simplicity, internally and externally, is a crucial part of moving to a more sustainable existence. Why? Because being overwhelmed with what we no longer need, or with more than we need saps our energy. Whether that's extra internal stuff, such as limiting beliefs, attachment to drama and gossip, or fantasising or whether it's external […]

Returning Home – Nurturing Inner and Outer Environments
What constitutes home for you and where or what do you regard as home?

I have been blogging on Barack Obama and Jill Stanek since 2004, when I had the privillege of serving as one of Jill Stanek's prayer intercessors. At that time, Jill was dismissed from her position as an R.N. at Christ Hospital in Oak Brook, IL for telling the truth about the infanticide occuring there. Babies that were meant to be aborted at this so-called "Christian" hospital who were born alive were left to die, without receiving any medical assistance whatsoever.
Jill's testimony can be found here at Priests for Life.
Jill also appeared on O'Reilly to share her story.
Jill fought back to protect these infants and, the Born Alive Infants Protection Act was introduced into the IL legislature as a result of her efforts. Barack Obama was serving in the IL legislature at that time and worked to ensure that this horrifying procedure continue. Obama not only voted against Born Alive, but he was the sole senator to speak against it on the senate floor - 2 years in a row.
The federal version of Born Alive passed unanimously 98-0 in the US Senate with Sens. Kennedy and Boxer speaking in support of it on the senate floor. It passed overwhelmingly by voice vote in the US House. President Bush signed it into law on August 5, 2002. As chairman of the IL Senate Health & Human Services Committee, Obama singlehandedly stopped the identical wording of the federal bill from being introduced in IL in 2003. Barack Obama is so radical in his support of abortion, he supports infanticide. He supports the killing of babies in his own "backyard" -- babies who are of his own race!
As I have said before: Barack Obama has no business running for the office of President -- he is indeed a baby killer and places no value on human life. He is a dangerous man. There is no proof that he is even a cititizen of this country and he befriends radicals and terrorists. Both he and his wife hate this country! He is a puppet of the Democratic party and is being used to promote their radical pro-homosexual, pro-abortion, anti-marriage, anti-family agenda.
Obama's multi-millionaire criminal friends -- George Soros and others -- have provided the funds he needs to spread his outrageous messianic messages (There is only one Jesus Christ and it's not him!) -- his phony campaign of bringing"hope" to the American people. The truth is that there is no hope for us nor for our generation if this man is elected President. He is a strong advocate of the culture of death -- he is the pawn in the game of politics-- present in our time as a "false prophet" to stir up false messages in the hearts of the people only to bring disappointment, destruction, and death to our families and to our country. Do not fall prey to his "false prophecies". His words tickle the ears of many, and he charms people with his outward appearances, but do not let yourselves be deceived by him. Repeat after me: NOBAMA!
For further reading, check out Diane's detailed post Obama and the "Born Alive Infant Protection Act" at Te Deum laudamus!

School briefs - Glen Allen High School
Glen Allen High School's competition cheerleading squad won first place in the Capital District competition for the first time in the school's three-year history. The team placed second in the Central Region and will be one of four teams representing the region at the state competition.
Junior Tristen Slamowitz credits team work and senior leadership for the team's success.
"We were forced to work as a team," Tristen said. "When we walked through the door at practice every day we were supposed to leave all our stress at the door and work toward the same goal."
Tristen said that they didn't start out the year practicing this way. However, Coach Sarah Catlett made hard work the expectation. Tristen said that two or three times this year Catlett made the team run because it was not working together.
"We all have to put in 100 percent every time we run the routine, and if one person doesn't then it reflects on the whole team," Tristen said.
The team also won the Rebel Rally competition at Fairfax High School on Oct. 13. Tristen said the victory made the team realize that it was good enough to beat other teams in the district.
"In the past few years we weren't at the same level as the other teams," she said. "We realized we could be just as good as them, and we are now."
Shannon Stansberry was one of the seniors who led stretches and encouraged the team.
"We all put our differences aside and work together as a team, and we just want to win for each other – not just for ourselves," she said.

Did you know that women dominate the field of public relations by a margin of 60 - 40? Public relations may be dominated by women now, but it didn't start that way. Back in the 1940s, it was practically unheard of for a woman to work in P.R. Rev. Barbara Harris was the woman who paved the way generations to come. She was the first black woman to work in public relations. She wasn't afraid to help companies during those turbulent times and even bridge the racial divide. Her success in marketing and promotion helped pave the way for many others including Erica Backus who has charted her own path at Visit Savannah.

To what extent and in what way do microblogs impact public opinion in China? Can they be seen as a precursor of free speech?
With over 500 million internet users, China has the world's largest netizen population. According to Sina, China's largest microblogging service Weibo has over 250 million users.
Vast reactions after the Wenzhou Train Crash in 2011 are seen to be a major contributing factor to the layoff of China's Minister of Railway spokes Wang Yongping. Pictures of Taiwan's recently reelected President Ma Ying-jeou proclaiming victory in the rain had Weibo users gazing across the straits with envy at a one man one vote democracy. Messages often reach millions of people before being censored.
In times where media and internet censorship in China is at it's peak, with a leadership change on its way in late 2012, what is the role of microblogs in China? Are they pushing the boundaries of what is accepted in public discussion or are they being instrumentalized as a release valve to decrease social tension? What good examples of their impact have there been in the past? What developments can be expected in 2012 and the following years?

Bowen LiangFeb 15 2012: Hey, as im chinese here i would comment on the question. currently in china microbolg is most popular internet tool for netizen interreacting to each other. but, it is not only tool of speech freedomly. bolg, space, message, chatroom, all those are not prohibit. people talks about govement and policy all the time but actually no much time to talks about it. As the video shows chinese in china people are struggle to make money and to creat their life in a better way. people not really have much concern about what govement allow us to say or not but we say something within our own benifits. pls do not misunderstand Ms yanglan's topic, this topic was talked about how is the young generatuion being lived in their own way. It is not something about speech freedomly or not. In matter of fact people in china speech in the inerenet are virous topics would believe goverment able to manage what they say and stop them all the time, actually there no blog at all ! on other hand would you say very bad thing when you income from 30-50RMB increasing to 2000-3000RMB? althrought there is bad saying it is because we wish goverment to updating and achiving more. so, not the goverment control our speech but speech badthing become less. There is no boundries and limitation. Some of midea has worngly reported and mislead people to wrong way to understand chinese goverment and policy~ trust me democaracy maynot only put up in one way, It is going to suitble for china situation in chinese democaracy way and just as communism only change to chinese communism or chinese socialism only has provened that we are on the right track~

It's Raining Men
Sorry, ladies, but New Yorkers for Children's annual Fool's Fête, held Wednesday at the Mandarin Oriental, was all about the fellas. Josh Hartnett, Joshua Jackson, Robert Buckley, and Jack Huston sent New York's social set into a frenzy that kept the cocktail portion of the evening running long: The guys made it easy for their admirers, lingering as they did by the bar during the pre-dinner gab and photo fest. Huston, for one, had good cause to dampen his nerves: His date, Cat Deeley, wore a white dress with a train, which many remarked would make a lovely wedding gown if he were so inclined. (Make that a double, bartender!)
During the steak dinner, a particularly rowdy table tried to talk over a poignant speech made by Will, a Hunter College freshman who had benefited from the charity's work, so Buckley shushed them. Now that's brotherhood. But the best part about all the male energy in the room? Plenty of dance partners. Only Hartnett protested—"I think I'll sit down for a few," he said—and the crowd made do without him. Bopping between Vanity Fair's Jessica Diehl and designer Chris Benz to "Girls Just Want to Have Fun," Eva Amurri said, "This is like prom." She probably wasn't the only one who thought the evening's $500 and $1,000 tickets represented money well spent.

A Community prayer vigil will be held at Community Clubhouse in Crisp County on Sunday, September 14,2014 at 7pm.
April 24, 2006
Thomasville- Thomasville is getting ready to bloom. The 85th annual Rose Show and Festival kicks off Thursday, but expect some changes this year. A centralized location will pull together the show, visitors, and downtown merchants.
Final preparations for the Thomasville Rose Show and parade has everyone as busy as bees. The rose show tent is up and accessibility is the key.
"In the past years, the rose tent was over on Crawford, but it will now be on Remington and it will be just right there in the middle, you can walk from the park all the way to the car show. It's a great area," said Felicia Brannen, Main Street Special Events Coordinator.
Mrs. McClune's kindergarten class turned their math lesson into work on their float, cutting the skirting for all three of Hand in Hand's floats in the Rose Bud Parade. The Thomasville High's Welding class will show off their float, the car art entry sponsored by the Cultural Arts Center.
"You'll see different activities happening throughout the week. We'll be getting ready in the park probably beginning Wednesday, Thursday," said Brannen.
And by Wednesday, the Rose City will be buzzing with growers.
"We've got rose growers, I know coming from Orlando, three of the big exhibitors from Jacksonville. I mean this is a prestigious event and big exhibitors come to Thomasville because of the prestige," said Rick Thomas, V.P. Thomasville Rose Society.
More than 60 judges from out of town will really make Thomasville bloom.
"Then you turn around and multiply it by them telling people, the impact, and then they're coming from all over, it's just wonderful," said Marge Willis, Rose Show Co-Chairman.
"It brings lots of visitors in, it's really an economic boost to our area," said Brannen.
While event organizers don't want to pinpoint an exact amount of economic impact, the facts are this, the hotels in town are booked for the weekend and restaurant owners expect to do better than normal business.
Remington Avenue is already closed between Crawford and Broad Streets. The 85th Annual Rose Show opens this Friday at one o'clock and you can catch the 58th annual Rose Parade live at seven o'clock right here on WALB.

made it through today
only took 4000mg of acetaminophen
hopefully my liver can hang
tomorrow is my friday
worst pain ever got worse
kind of starting to worry
off to work another 10 hour shift
this might be the worst physical pain I have ever been in
i think we all try too hard to be cool and pretty, when really all we need is to have good sex and to be able to make our favourite food
Yeah… I destroyed my back lifting (three lowest vertebrae became misaligned and were crushing the nerve roots in my spinal cord) so I kind of fell off, at the gym. At that point, I had cut 35 pounds (something I am at least kind of proud of… it was a lot of work) and was close to being content with my self, physically. Kind of crummy, but I'll get back into it eventually.
I can't tell if the person that posted this meant for it to be hurtful or not… When I first read it, that is just what I assumed, but then I couldn't come up with a reason as to why someone would be blatantly rude to me, as I make it a point to try and be a kind person to most everyone…
If you were concerned with my health, well there you go. But, if you asked this to try and ruin my day, well, please don't do that. There are enough pricks in the world.
little sister went to rehab four days ago
found out via facebook
why does everyone in my family have to fuck everything up so hard
please get better sammy
when you lay there and die
your last thoughts will be
is fine
I wish Facebook shark worked on tumblr
would you look at that
man fuck january
people need to stop dying
Power went out while I was shaving
They're taking away the internet
My dog is about to die
I am snowed in
you are soul mates.
I wanna wake up naked next to you, kissing the curve in your clavicle.
Good day, so far
told myself I wouldn't sleep all day
Bahahahahah fuck. Olympia rules.
don't answer phone when they call
successful troll is successful

The Kansas City Chiefs are riding a six game winning streak coming into this Sunday, the first in a decade. They are also coming off winning the Guinness Book of World Records mark for loudest outside stadium roar, beating Seattle's "12th man". Up next for the surging Chiefs comes a Houston Texans team that is on a 4 game losing streak and with a beat up roster as well. The Chiefs are the favorite to win the game, but head coach Andy Reid knows that in order to be sure to win at "Terrorhead" tape must be watched and preparations made. Below are a few of the key players that the Chiefs must account for in order to move to 7-0 on the season.
1. Arian Foster
With injuries to Matt Schaub, who let's face it, is not playing well, Foster has been a lone bright spot for the Texans offense. Despite playing with some injuries this season, he is ranked second in the league is rushing with 531 rushing yards and a 4.5 yards per carry. He also poses a threat in the passing game, as the Texans love to utilize the play action pass. Regardless of who is throwing the ball on Sunday, Foster is a player that has the capability to open the game up for the Texans, and the Chiefs will need to keep in him check.
2. JJ Watt
With a lack of offensive playmakers the focus turns on to the defense. JJ Watt is a beast on the line and with the Texans recent losing streak; he is in a bad mood. 2012's defensive player of the year is off to a slow start with only 3.5 sacks on the year, but he is always a playmaker for the defense. The Chiefs offensive line has been beat up and protection for quarterback Alex Smith has been lacking, Watt will be trouble for the Chiefs offensive line.
3. Andre Johnson
Andre Johnson is a big receiver and loves to get the ball and make plays. He, like Foster, has been playing with some injuries this year; he also has only had one game this year over 100 yards receiving. Despite those stats, he does pose a threat down the field, last week with his shin injury he still managed to get 88 yards against the Rams. So whether it is Schaub or TJ Yates throwing Johnson the ball he is still a player the Chiefs need to plan for because of his big play ability.
Speak up Addicts, who do you think the Chiefs need to plan for in order to move to 7-0?
Sound off below.

Past Camper
Good for all levels!
This was my first experience at a tennis camp. I'm a novice player with a desire to improve my game. I was a little anxious about my skill level not being adequate to participate. However, that was far from the actualities. Everyone participated and interacted with each other and the drills were all basic improvement skills no matter what your level of play. It was wonderful experience and I'll go again. The staff couldn't have been better!
Past Camper
High Quality of Coaches
The quality of coaches was quite good (many imported from local universities) and the amount of play beneficial.
Past Camper
Fun Learning Experience
This is a fun learning experience,and the staff is wonderful! Such a great time with new friends.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
The analysis in this post is interesting, but plainly off target. Simply put, Blizz has a long track record of being concerned with how to keep the highest volume of players engaged for the longest possible time. If they were concerned with high end raid composition they would have tuned high end raids. Drastically reducing the health of all raid bosses gives the entire player base access to higher level content than they have now, or if they are at the top of the end game content, this nerf keeps them there, and makes it easier as well.

Tobias FornellTalk5
this wiki
- "My breakfast burrito is about to say hello!"
- —Fornell after discovering that his ex-wife is an IRS agent in the Season 10 episode, "Devil's Trifecta".
Tobias C. Fornell or "T.C" is an FBI Special Agent who occasionally collaborates with the NCIS Major Case Response Team and who is also good friends with the team's leader, Leroy Jethro Gibbs.
Season One
Fornell made his debut appearance in the NCIS Season 1 premiere episode, Yankee White (episode) where he attempted to take the lead in the investigation into the circumstances surrounding Commander Ray Trapp's death. He failed to do so and was later kicked off Air Force One by Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo much to Fornell's own annoyance.
However, Fornell was later brought into the investigation and as such, was given copies of the findings that Forensic Scientist Abigail Sciuto and Medical Examiner Donald Mallard had discovered and after Leroy Jethro Gibbs had taken down the terrorist responsible for killing both Trapp and Major Timothy Kerry, Fornell was seen giving a press conference where he discussed the case and also revealed that the terrorist's body would be removed to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology.
Fornell's second appearance came in Seadog (episode) where he took at former Secret Service-turned-NCIS Special Agent Caitlin Todd by remarking that she'd joined "the cowboys"- NCIS. He even personally came to NCIS Headquarters to inform Gibbs and Kate that one of the persons of interest they were searching for into the death of a a Navy Commander was actually a terrorist, not a drug dealer as NCIS had originally thought. He later ordered security to be tightened after discovering that the terrorists were planning an attack and left, only for Gibbs to state that he believed that Fornell had target fixation, meaning that Fornell was so fixated on strengthening the security of potential targets he was failing to see the bigger picture.
His third appearance came in the episode, Enigma (episode) where he attempted to arrest Gibbs's former C.O, having believed that the man was responsible for the death of an agent under Fornell but Gibbs was successful in proving that Ryan was innocent and that the true killer was caught.
His fourth appearance came in the Season 1 finale episode, Reveille (episode) where he grudgingly arranged a meeting between Gibbs and the newly identified terrorist, Ari Haswari who was responsible for the NCIS hostage situation.
Season Two
Fornell's first official appearance of Season 2 came in the episode, The Bone Yard (episode) where he and Gibbs worked together to expose a mole in the FBI who was giving confidential information to a mobster which had resulted in the death of an undercover agent. Gibbs and Fornell even went so far as to fake Fornell's death in hopes of distracting the mole which worked.
It was later revealed that the mole was Agent Charles, Fornell's partner who upon being exposed attempted to kill everyone at the meeting site, only for Charles to die when he was shot in the head by a sniper.
With the matter resolved, Fornell resumed working as an FBI agent again although DiNozzo, Kate and newest Timothy McGee who were members of the Major Case Response Team Gibbs led were left stunned as to how Fornell had even faked his supposed death in the first place.
Fornell returned in Conspiracy Theory (episode), aiding the team with an investigation into the supposed suicide of a Petty Officer whose boss was also being investigated for allegedly accepting kickbacks. With Fornell's help, the NCIS team eventually captured the Petty Officer's two killers.
Fornell's final Season 2 appearance came in the Season 2 finale episode, Twilight (episode).
Season Three
Season Four
Season Five
Season Six
Fornell's first Season 6 appearance came in the Season 6 episode, Nine Lives (episode).
Season Seven
Season Eight
Season Nine
Season Ten
Season Eleven
Fornell appeared in the Season 11 premiere episode, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot (episode), having been called in to investigate a hotel bombing that had left Thomas Morrow injured and had killed the current Secretary of the Navy, Clayton Jarvis. He also acted as a bodyguard for Tomás Mendez who was later revealed to be working for the team's enemy, a mysterious terrorist known only as Parsa. When Mendez attempted to set off another bomb, Gibbs responded by shooting Mendez, killing the man instantly with the shot hitting Fornell in the ass.
After the shootout, Fornell was wheeled away and while doped on painkillers, kept complaining about how Gibbs had shot him.
- In "Yankee White", William Baer was heard referring to him as "Tom" although the writers presumably later changed it to Tobias to ensure that audiences would not be confused with Fornell and Director Thomas Morrow.
- Has a young daughter named Emily Fornell.
- Used a Glock 17 as his service weapon before presumably switching to a SIG-Sauer P228 in the Season 11 premiere episode, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot (episode).
- Fornell is the only recurring character to have appeared on every season of the show so far.

Next-Gen iPhone 4G/HD Revealed: The Details
Apple will be launching its fourth-generation iPhone in June. Thanks to an Apple employee who left a prototype in a bar, we've seen several photos and videos of the new phone, which could be called "iPhone 4G" (unlikely, given that it'll still be using AT&T's 3G network), "iPhone HD," or something different.
Read on to learn what we know about Apple's new phone so far.
The 4th-gen iPhone looks similar to the current iPhone from the front, with a screen, black finish, and home button. But where the current model has a rounded plastic body, the new one has flat, glass-like back with metal in between. This creates an almost sandwich-like appearance that matches better with the design of Apple's other products. There's speculation that the back could actually be made of a radio-transparent ceramic material that might help improve cell reception.
Curiously, the new design has several seams in the metal section on the sides. This could just be due to the phone being a prototype, but there's some speculation that they may indicate a removable battery, something all prior iPhones have lacked. There is some evidence for this (see photo below), but we're skeptical, given that Apple's shifted even their MacBook Pro laptops to using sealed, non-replaceable batteries. There's a hole next to one of the seams, which could be a release mechanism for the battery, but Gizmodo speculates it could be a secondary microphone for noise-canceling (as seen on the HTC Touch Pro 2, for instance).
Apple has shifted from normal SIM cards to side-loaded MicroSIMs, which it first introduced in the iPad. The side buttons (vibrate switch, lock button, volume buttons) are now all made of metal, and the volume rocker has been split into two circular volume buttons.
The new phone measures 4.50 by 2.31 by 0.37 inches. The major change is the thickness, which, at around 9.4 mm, is significantly slimmed down from the 3GS. The overall feel is said to be much improved, feeling more like the aluminum-backed iPhone 2G than the current phone's plastic build.
The new iPhone's screen is about the same size as the current one's. The big change is in the resolution, which is significantly higher than the current model's HVGA (480 x 320). Most Windows Mobile and Android phones now use WVGA (800 x 480), so Apple may finally respond by doubling the iPhone's resolution in each direction to 960 x 640 (quadrupling overall pixel count). This would have the added benefit of allowing current applications to easily scale up (by just showing four pixels for each one pixel the application renders).
The next-gen iPhone packs an improved camera, with higher resolution (we don't have final specs, but it's probably around 5 megapixels) and a new LED flash. But the big news is the addition of a front-facing secondary camera, which would allow for video chat. While not a new feature (phones in Europe and Asia have had it for half a decade), video chat on the iPhone could be significant if it full integrates with Apple's iChat, which is compatible with several IM networks.
Gizmodo didn't tear apart its iPhone prototype in fear of damaging it, but the new model is very likely to have an Apple A4 processor like the iPad. The iPad's 1 GHz A4 is basically just a faster version of the iPhone 3GS' 600 MHz ARM Cortex A8 processor, and the iPhone is likely to receive the same chip. It'll be competitive with the 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon chip used in many current and upcoming Android and Windows Mobile phones (see here for more information about smartphone processors), but we're probably going to see next-generation processors like ARM's Cortex A9 out by the end of 2010 or early 2011, so Apple's probably going to be a bit behind the curve on the hardware end.
In terms of on-board storage, the prototype apparently had 80GB of space. Flash is produced in sizes like 16, 32, 64, or 128GB, so if new iPhone indeed has 80GB, Apple may have managed to fit two flash chips inside and decided to pair 64GB and 16GB chips, totaling 80GB.
The new phone has a 16% larger battery (5.25 WHr vs. the 3GS' 4.51 WHr unit), which could mean better battery life, but keep in mind Apple's adding a faster processor, higher-resolution screen, and second camera, which might erase some of the benefit.
Software-wise, we're looking at the same iPhone OS 4.0 that Apple revealed a few weeks ago.
Apple's new iPhone is a modest update over the current 3GS. It boasts a cleaner, more modern design and adds a major new feature in video chat. Otherwise, we're looking at the same OS as 3GS users will be running in a bit over a month's time, with a faster processor. The new model will probably cost about $199 on a two-year AT&T contract- about the same as the 3GS, which will probably drop down to $99 (the 3G model's current price point).
