485 Tasting Notes
Drank this with Mom – yes! I got her to try looseleaf! And enjoy it! Her favourite flavour of anything is chocolate orange, so I thought this would be a great tea to coax her over to the dark side with. No luck yet, but I will keep trying.
Bleh. The oolong tasted old and stale, and I got absolutely no peach flavour from it. Sad and disappointed.
I liked this tea even more this time around, I really really need to stock up on it. This steep tasted like a cinnamon roll with a coconut lemon glaze, it was delicious. Usually I don't care for cinnamon in my tea, but this was such a natural, raw cinnamon flavour, and it was perfectly balanced with the sweet and spicy. Om nom nom.

Fabina Verde is a distinctive dried green bean with a tender bite and delicate flavor. It is traditionally served with seafood or shellfish because its smooth texture and mild taste allow the seafood to shine. These are quite small beans that need to be soaked before cooking.

Q: Senator, right now in the House they're looking at a number of budgets: the president's budget last night went down to a pretty broad, unanimous defeat; there's an RSC budget; there's a Progressive Caucus budget; and there's the Paul Ryan budget. The Ryan budget seems like the on that's most likely to path. What do you view as it's shortcomings and – the Club for Growth has come out against it, for example – what do you make of those criticisms that they've leveled?
DeMint: Well, Paul has done some great work. I think he's probably one of the best thinkers in the Congress today. We really don't need to be critical of what he's done. I think what he's trying to do is find a balance that'll pass, but a lot of us don't think we'll have 27 years or 9 years to balance the budget. And, frankly, I think Paul believes that if we can adopt some of these reforms we're going to have a bigger revenue stream, we'll come to balance quicker. So he's not ignoring that. But, a lot of us believe that we need to promise the nation, 'if you trust us again with a majority and the presidency, then our top goal is to balance the budget within 10 years.' That's a reasonable goal. I think it justifies some of the cuts, some of the entitlement reforms. The problem we have is if we reform entitlements and don't help people understand that the reason we need to do that is because we have to balance our budget. If the budget never balances, then our moral authority to change Social Security and Medicare is diminished.
I think what you see from the RSC budget – what they call the Cut, Cap, and Balance budget – is consistent with what the Cut, Cap, and Balance bill was, [which was] that once the states ratify the constitutional amendment, we have to be in balance in five years. And that's why they've got a five-year balance. But they take a lot of Paul Ryan's ideas, just like we have – Pat Toomey's doing the same thing in the Senate. The reforms that are needed – Paul has forced the debate on those reforms. He's been the first lieutenant that went out and took all the bullets last time and he's doing it again. And I think what that's doing is kind of blasting the rock away so that some other folks can run through with some of these ideas without as much danger. So, he's done the brave thing. But the cuts that are needed -- or, I guess, if there's a weakness of his plan, it's the cuts in discretionary and mandatory spending, non-defense. We have to do that.
If you see what RSC has done and what Rand Paul did in the Senate, like Medicaid block grants – if we just freeze it for five years at its current level you save a whole lot of money. And you don't really have to go back and cut a lot of these programs but if you can freeze a few of them, you pick up trillions of dollars over the next ten years and come to balance. We've got to make those hard decisions. Rand actually eliminates some departments, which is where we need to go. I'm not sure that Cut, Cap, and Balance – the RSC plan – does that. So, we've got some good things to discuss and the fact that Republicans are doing all the -- putting the serious ideas on the table, we hope the media will recognize it.
It's clear the president's not serious. His own party won't even touch his budget. The Democrats won't even bring one up in the Senate because a budget reveals what you want to do and what you feel like we have to do. That doesn't get near enough attention.
For them to sit on the sidelines and just take potshots at what the Republicans offer is what they've done for the last couple decades. Never has a Democrats done tax reform, social security reform, Medicare reform. This president is completely irresponsible. He's been in office three years. The problems that are facing us, that have us on the edge of the cliff -- he's avoided. It's a cowardly thing to do as a world leader not to address the big problems. And he thinks he can go into the election and fool the American people -- that he can take shots at what Republicans are suggesting and frighten old people -- America's not going to fall for that. That's what makes me feel good about the elections. Americans aren't stupid. They're going to see through the clutter that Republicans are at least trying to address the problems with some different ideas that we can sit down and debate, but the Democrats won't even show their hand with a budget. I really think it's disgraceful.
Q: Senator, the last time around the Democrats ran an ad showing Paul Ryan shoving an old lady off a cliff. But, he's back and seems to have a more positive response this time.
DeMint: Yeah.
Q: Have they inoculated him in some sense – are Republicans not scared of that issue as much?
DeMint: Oh, there are still some of them who are scared. But like I said, Paul Ryan ran out there and took all the flames and arrows and came back alive. As a matter of fact, he gained a lot of national notoriety and it actually became – Republicans who disagreed with him were stigmatized, which was a pretty good move. So, I think he's emboldened a lot of people. But also I think some of the media that never took the time to actually report what he was doing has had to face the fact that if you don't do anything, Medicare is gone. And that's the option Democrats have always tried to hold on to, is we don't have to do anything. I think more and more Americans know we have to do something.
And Paul has come back to which is something which is more politically viable, which is give people a choice: you can stay on this plan where you're not going to be able to find people a doctor, or you can get on some private insurance. The Democrats will use it in this election, and I think we'll just see whether or not the majority of voters have the discernment to realize – I think more and more are questioning because they know that the president has not told them the truth.
Q: There is one Democrat who has addressed this, at least somewhat , Senator Wyden – is he ostracized by his side? Has he been embraced by your side?
DeMint: Yeah, he's ostracized, but – he's been willing to move a little bit, but he insists that you have to keep the government program. In some ways, that's okay, because once people realize that you can't find a doctor on Medicare, traditional Medicare, because they don't pay doctors enough to see you, I think you would see a private plan shift – unless we have some hooks in it that basically subsidize traditional Medicare but we don't subsidize the other to try to prop up the government plan. Ron's been willing to take a few chances, but he won't vote for the Paul Ryan budget because of the other things. So, he's probably the most willing of the Democrats but very seldom will he vote with us.
Q: Senator, you said earlier that monetary policy might be even more dangerous than the debt, and we all know the debt is a huge problem. Could you explain that?
DeMint: It's hard to separate them, because a lot of what we are doing with monetary policy that is irresponsible is trying to cover up the irresponsible fiscal policy that we've made in Congress. The Federal Reserve has printed money and bought over half of our debt in the last two years. That's something they're not supposed to do, but they're doing it through intermediaries and so it's technically legal. And then, of course, the quantitative easing basically is buying our own debt. It obscures what the interest rates would be if we were actually taking our treasury's to market in a real market.
But the printing of money, it looks reasonably good now as far as inflation and interest rates, but it's only because the euro has been in so much trouble. I think we're going to see over the next year or two some real problems because there's not enough credit available in the world, if you do a world-wide analysis of available credit, and then the demand of credit that's expected not only from the US but other countries. I mean, there's not to many other places to go. There's not another $10 trillion to borrow.
So, our central bank as well as the Europeans are going to be forced to somehow deal with our lack of political will with monetary policy. And you can tell that in the hearings with Bernanke, how they're thinking. He's trying to manage economies all over the world with monetary policy. I just think at some point people are going to question our ability to pay back our debt. I think interest rates are going to go up, which again affects us on the fiscal side as far as just the cost of maintaining that debt. To me it just feels like a game of musical chairs where the music's playing, [but] at some point it'll stop and somebody's not going to get a seat.
Q: Senator, a parochial issue: dredging Charleston Harbor, where does that stand?
DeMint: Well it's going to happen, but it's going to happen without a parochial earmark. And what we're doing is forcing the Corps [Army Corps of Engineers]and hopefully the Congress to come up with a package of how do we maintain our ports around the country. I know Lindsey Graham is working with Haley Barbour and others who have your ports along the Mississippi as well as some of the senators who are on the West Coast to go to some system that's criteria-based rather than politically-driven where –
Charleston collects harbor fees, which – we collect enough harbor fees to dredge our own port and take care of it. So does California. And now that they can't just direct money to Charleston, with an earmark, hopefully we're going to come to a solution of how that's funded. And I think the Corps is starting to find their discretionary money and they're looking at Savannah and Charleston and some other ports that need to be dredged. So, it'll happen but my hope is that we end up doing some rational reforms of how we do it that are more permanent, that are not reliant on us up here to get an earmark to keep the Charleston port at the depth that it's supposed to be. Because whenever that kind of leverage is available – that the only way I'm going to get money for the port is to vote for a Bridge to Nowhere, which is how it's worked for years, and that's how we got $16 trillion in debt. We've got to begin to fix those programs and do things the right way
Q: Senator, thank you very much.

I swear I had a LIFE PLAN once. I must have misplaced that life plan in an absurdly overpriced must-have handbag. I had let the years slip by, foolishly believing the future would figure itself out. My stock of excuses had drained and now my life stared me in the face—and it wasn't pretty.

Well I just spilled water all over my husband's computer. Yep. And while I was frantically unplugging and drying and panicking I was freaking out about how to tell him about his baby (maybe) drowning.
He instantly forgave me. He is so Jesus.
This is the thing: When you hit 28 or 30, everything begins to divide. You can see very clearly two kinds of people. On one side, people who have used their 20s to learn and grow, to find God and themselves and their dreams, people who know what works and what doesn't, who have pushed through to become real live adults. Then there's the other kind, who are hanging onto college, or high school even, with all their might. They've stayed in jobs they hate, because they're too scared to get another one. They've stayed with men or women who are good but not great, because they don't want to be lonely. They mean to find a church, they mean to develop intimate friendships, they mean to stop drinking like life is one big frat party. But they don't do those things, so they live in an extended adolescence, no closer to adulthood than when they graduated.
Don't be like that. Don't get stuck. Move, travel, take a class, take a risk. There is a season for wildness and a season for settledness, and this is neither. This season is about becoming. Don't lose yourself at happy hour, but don't lose yourself on the corporate ladder either. Stop every once in a while and go out to coffee or climb in bed with your journal.
Ask yourself some good questions like: "Am I proud of the life I'm living? What have I tried this month? What have I learned about God this year? What parts of my childhood faith am I leaving behind, and what parts am I choosing to keep? Do the people I'm spending time with give me life, or make me feel small? Is there any brokenness in my life that's keeping me from moving forward?"
Now is your time. Walk closely with people you love, and with people who believe God is good and life is a grand adventure. Don't get stuck in the past, and don't try to fast-forward yourself into a future you haven't yet earned. Give today all the love and intensity and courage you can, and keep traveling honestly along life's path

Ave Maria University, a Catholic college in Florida, plans to drop its student health insurance plan because of "moral and economic concerns," and officials are blaming the Obama administration's contraception rule and the Affordable Care Act. University President James Towey said students would see premiums job 65 to 82 percent because of Obamacare requirements restricting annual limits on insurance policies. Because of the cost increase and contraception coverage requirement, Towey told Fox News that "we just might get out of this business." In Februay, Ave Maria University filed a lawsuit claiming the contraception coverage mandate violated the college's religious liberties, despite the fact that the regulation offers accommodations to religious institutions so that they do not have to pay for contraception.

Kids, Careers, Connections
I don't know who these 20-somethings are who can afford vacations in Cancun. I am 28 (almost 29) and have almost been married two years and I can't even afford to go on a weekend get-away in my same state. Much less have a baby (and I have my master's degree). It must be different in the South because almost ALL of my friends got married right out of college and already have at least two children; my husband and I can relate more to our church's Singles group than to the "Young Married" class, which is actually comprised of people who have been married at least 5 years and have kids. I'd say that's not "Young Married" anymore...especially if you're in your mid-to-late 30s like some of them. It's more of a parenting class than anything, so that's sort of frustrating. And we're not waiting to have kids because we want to...it's more of a financial issue right now. We're living with my in-laws due to some medical problems my husband has had, so he was out of work for about six months. If I could, I'd try to get pregnant tomorrow but we want to be smart about it. *Sigh* Not everyone puts off having kids because of their careers. Sometimes it's just bad timing and you don't want to have to rely on your family for financial support.

This week will be a warm one. We'll see high temperatures in the mid to upper 80's all week long...several degrees above average for this time in October. Lows will run in the upper 50's to lower 60's throughout most of the week. Our next system looks to move through CenLa next Saturday. It will bring plenty of showers and a few thunderstorms with it as well. Ahead of the front we'll see increasing clouds for Thursday and Friday, with the rain beginning to arrive late Friday night. After the front moves through, we can expect to see some fall weather once again. Lows will drop back into the 40's and highs will remain in the lower 70's for a few days.
Enjoy the warm, dry weather while it lasts!

Albany - Southwest Georgia may lose out on homeland security money because of the upcoming G-8 summit on Sea Island.
The state divides the federal money among 8 regions. Last year, Region 2, which includes 23 Southwest Georgia counties, received about $1.4-million. But, a large share of the next round of the money, expected in March, will likely go to the coastal Georgia for security for the G-8 summit. That means less money for hazardous material training here in Albany.
"We have really taken some giant steps in providing regional response in all of these areas. The more funds that are diverted, the longer it takes us to get our plan up and running," said Chief James Arrowood.
The Albany Fire Department has already received $340,000 in homeland security money. Most of which they used for hazard material response equipment and hazmat training.
The G-8 summit between President Bush and leaders of Canada, Japan, Britain, France, Italy, Germany and Russia is set for June on Sea Island.

CSS, DHTML, and Ajax, Fourth Edition: Visual QuickStart Guide (Visual QuickStart Guides)by Jason Cranfo Teague
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The Web doesn't stand still, and neither does this guide: Completely updated to cover the new browsers, standards, and CSS, DHTML, and Ajax features that define the Web today, the one thing that hasn't changed in this edition is its task-based visual approach to the topic.

Using loads of tips and screen shots, veteran author Jason Cranford Teague covers a lot of ground--from basic and advanced dynamic techniques (for example, making objects appear and disappear) to creating effects for newer browsers, migrating from tables to CSS, and creating new DHTML scripts with embedded scroll areas, fixed menu bars, and more. Users new to CSS, DHTML, and Ajax will find this a quick, easy introduction to scripting, while more experienced programmers will be pleased to find practical, working examples throughout the book.

I couldn't get on before then this time I logged in first and it worked. Maybe that is the secret.
I went to the drug store the other day to get some deodrant. There are so many fragrances that it took me a long time to find a fragrance free one-thanks Arid and Secret. There must be a reason for all these so I thought and I think I know why.
1. Let's see it's Monday so I think I'll wear Clean Linen. On Tues. I'll wear Lavender. On Wed. I'm dreaming of a weekend at the beach so it'll be Ocean Breeze...
2. People are running around smelling arm pits to see what fragrance you are wearing that day.
Now when I had asthma fragrance would trigger an attack so I had to be careful. Shampoo was a hard find too. I wear expensive perfume and I don't want shampo, deodrant, hand lotion etc trying to over power it. Some people don't wear perfume and still don't want to smell like a walking flower.
Why can't people just smell clean?
Have a great evening.

This was good, and stands up to its billing as refreshing. Once frozen, it becomes a bit icy, so it is best enjoyed "soft serve" right out of the ice cream maker. Also, the zest gets caught on the dasher in the machine; I might try mixing it in at the end next time. I will try this again, but I will be making a few changes; definitely use full fat half & half (I mixed heavy cream and fat free h&h), add a couple of tablespoons of vodka to keep it soft in the freezer, add 1/4 cup extra sugar.

This recipe is perfect the way it is, but I sometime substitute 1/2 of the half-and-half with plain fat-free yogurt and it is mmmmm good!

Why is it that I am so in to older women? Any ideas???
Like, if I met a 40 year old who was really attractive and interesting and was interested in me, I would totally date her, despite being in my early 20's.
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
I don't think it's abnormal, it's very common indeed. Perhaps less so if you're exclusively or particularly attracted to older women, but even then it's not a problem. As for the reason.. could be you are subconsciously seeking mothering/care-taking, either because of feeling emotionally immature and vulnerable, or perhaps because your own past experiences of being mothered were inadequate (or even over-bearing). If you have trouble hitting it off with girls your age, it could be as simple as finding that older women are more responsive and forgiving towards you, which reinforces the attraction. It could be more a sexual thing - as with a fetish, some kind of past experience or association which has caused your mind to equate older women with arousal.
What Girls Said 8
You like what you like Nothing wrong with that
you want to be taken care of? you like saggy boobs? idk
The same thing can be said about girls who like men in their 40's, they want to be taking care of. Maybe some like saggy balls lol.
It's normal. Not weired
That's your preference. That's all I'd take from it.
idk why for you but I like hooking up with older men becasue they believe in privacy
I tend to be bluntly honest. A little older, say five to ten years, whatever age is a number right? Anything above that, usually indicates mommy issues :/
"Usually indicates mommy issues" ... talk about pulling facts out of your ass.
It's normal, I'm 18 and my boyfriend is 42...But he acts like he's 20 and I act like I'm 50 (most of the time)...Depending on your past and experiences people mature at different rates, making you compatible more with your maturity group than your age group.
I don't want to judge you but damn.
Nothing wrong with that. It's what you like. Don't let anyone tell you differently. It's more common than you think.

Both HMO Illinois and BlueAdvantageSM HMO include coverage for durable medical equipment (DME).Durable medical equipment is "durable equipment which primarily serves a medical purpose, is appropriate for home use and generally is not useful in the absence of injury or disease." Examples of DME are wheelchairs, hospital beds and ventilators.
If a member's PCP determines that he or she needs DME, the PCP will write out a prescription and a referral will be made to a contracting provider. The member simply gives the supplier the prescription and shows his or her BCBSIL HMO member ID card to obtain the equipment.
The DME provider will usually file a claim directly with BCBSIL. However, some DME providers may require members to pay for the equipment then submit a claim to the BCBSIL HMO for reimbursement.
DME benefits exclude comfort or convenience items commonly used for purposes that are not medical in nature, such as (but not limited to) air conditioners, humidifiers, physical fitness equipment, televisions or telephones.

Entrepreneur program to help First Nations
By Lethbridge Herald
Caroline Zentner
lethbridge herald — BLOOD RESERVE
Indigenous people in Canada haven't had the same kind of opportunities as those who arrived here after them.
Former prime minister Paul Martin established the Martin Aboriginal Education Initiative in 2008 to help right that wrong. Tuesday he was at Kainai High School on the Blood Reserve to meet with the first students to benefit from the Aboriginal Youth Entrepreneurship Program (AYEP).
"A great injustice was done for far too long. Those days are over," Martin said. "This country, if we are going to be able to compete with the Chinese, the Indians, if we are going to be able to hold our own in a world of huge populations far greater than ours, we cannot afford to waste a single talent."
The goal of AYEP is to teach aboriginal youth about business and entrepreneurship and encourage them to complete high school and go on to post-secondary studies. The program has specially developed teacher and student resources which focus on an aboriginal point of view.
"Education is the key to these students succeeding and education is the key to this country succeeding," Martin said. "This is the first time that this program has been introduced on a reserve in Alberta."
The first AYEP materials were distributed to participating schools in 2011 after folks at the Martin Aboriginal Education Initiative determined it was crucial First Nations, Métis and Inuit (FNMI) people have an opportunity to understand what business is all about. They gathered information from the best business courses in Canada and in the United States and later incorporated FNMI constructs and beliefs.
"These are the first set of textbooks and workbooks that have ever been produced for indigenous people teaching high school business anywhere in the world," Martin said. "The purpose of this course is to teach these students about how to be entrepreneurs, how to be business people, how to basically do marketing and accounting, how to design an idea and then get it out and sell it."
Martin, along with Brian Porter, CEO of Scotiabank, listened to five students in the Entrepreneurship 20 course at Kainai High School present their business ideas. The program is a joint venture between the Blood Tribe, the Kainai Board of Education and Scotiabank. Kainai High School started using the AYEP materials last November.
"Youth entrepreneurship and education on reserves like this is critically important," said Porter. "Small businesses are the backbone of this country."
Teacher Darcie Thomas said she incorporated several activities, including visits to Scotiabank and Lethbridge College, where they sat in on a business class. In class they learned how to do business plans and participated in challenges similar to those on "The Apprentice," "Dragon's Den" and "Shark Tank." The students then came up with their own business ideas, which included a babysitting service, a T-shirt design business, a yard and lawn care service, a sportswear store and a beadwork store.
"To get them interested in it I had to do a lot of hands-on activities because they were unsure. Business is so new to them they didn't know where to start," Thomas said. "Once I got them to open up . . . they got all excited and they worked well together."
Mackenzie Yellowhorn, a Grade 11 student, said she found the experience valuable even though it created some anxiety.
"Throughout the course we were all focusing on this day, the launch, and it was really nerve-wracking and scary presenting in front of all these people. Now, once I did it, I'm more confident in myself and I think I really do want to go through with my business plan," she said.
Her business idea centred around coaching young girls about their appearance and helping them feel good about themselves.
"I noticed here in my school there's a lot of shy girls and I think it's a good way to get them out of it," Mackenzie said.
She said she's planning on taking the next level of the course and definitely has her eye on taking business courses at the post-secondary level.
Seeing her students succeed in the course was a proud moment for Annette Bruised Head, principal of the school.
"I know that our students are capable of so much and that with every investment they will rise to the challenges and become successful, independent and respectful citizens of our community and our country," she said.
For Chief Charles Weaselhead, programs like the AYEP create a seed in young people and let them know there are opportunities off of the reserve.
"The way to access the best opportunity is number one through your education," Weaselhead said.
Bruised Head has been at the school for five years and during that time graduation rates have been increasing. Whereas three students graduated five years ago, last year 15 graduated and more than 30 are expected to graduate this year.

As a tank with 28K unbuffed HP, I have noticed that I'm going through a lot of food when I need to recuperate after raid wipes and the odd fall. Has there been any word if Blizzard will be introducing with 3.1 any food items that gave more than 15K HP over 30 seconds?
http://ptr.wowhead.com/?item=45932 is being put in in 3.1. You can, of course, expect convenience to be expensive, since it won't be sold by any vendors... :)

Colwyn Bay vs. Burton Albion – The Biggest Game At Llanelian Road For Ages
I haven't wittered on about The Mighty Seagulls for a while, and with good reason.
Truth be told, whilst still hopeful for this season, we are in a position where our season can go either way. We're 12th and a few points off the pace, but with a number of games in hand, we should be right up there. We're not doing fantastically, but we aint doing half bad.
The reason we are a few games behind is because we've really shone is in the cup competitions.
We went far in the FA Cup until losing to Barrow, we took Witton (a team who are running away with the title in the division above) to penalties in the League cup, and we've done well in the FA Trophy, beating Frickley and Sheffield along the way.
Tomorrow, in that trophy, we face the club with the stupidest crest ever – Burton Albion.
Burton Albion are one of the favourites in the trophy: they are a very good side with a great young manager (Nigel Clough, ex Liverpool player who is the son of Brian Clough – he led rubbish Nottingham Forest to the European Cup. Twice). They took Manchester United to the limit in an FA Cup tie a few years ago. Chances are they will either be promoted or come close this year, and will probably go up sometime within the next few years.
Needless to say, we are the underdogs.
We won't have a full side out. John Lawless, Mark Quayle and Anthony Murt are all out through suspensions, and we have a couple of injuries as well. Barnet didn't do us a favour by beating Burton in normal time in their FA Cup Replay on Tuesday.
So, we're going to need your help. Sometime tomorrow, at 3pm, please do the following:
1. Wear Something Sky Blue or Maroon
2. Squalk like a Seagull
3. Chant "The League of Wales is Rubbish"
If we all do this, then we can will them to go on and win. If you're in North Wales, come along to Llanelian Road, it's only £6, and you get to see me swear.
C'mon the Bay!

I avoid the forums like the plague.
Most of "sample" is are guildies, friends that play and people I pug with. The general feeling I get from alot of them is the "blah, I play cause it fills up time". Sure there are some that are all about the loot, endgame and pvp and others that think the game is doomed. Most of the people sit in the middle. I think if something different came along most of them would give it a shot and if the game is really well put together they wouldn't come back.

lifes a mean thing… if things happen for a reason.. why are the paths so negative?
I love my gf…. even though were like a roller coaster I love her to the moon and back deeper then the sea <3
[TW: rape]
[Picture's captions]
The first image is Thea Wellband, who plays the teenage rape victim in Unwatchable. [x]
The second image is Rose, nine years old, who was raped so violently her hips are permanently damaged. [x]
It's unsettling that they actually need to make a film about this happening to white people to make white people care.
Rebloging anyway for Rose.
I posted this three times tonight and had three people tell me that I helped save their life. Thank you to those people who have decided to struggle through to let us enjoy the gift of one more day of their prescence gracing us all. I hope that you all reblog this, to save another few. Because we all dserve another chance and hope in life. I went to the hospital 6 times before I decided to keep my life but I hope none of you suffer that much. And I hope you all can make that scary, seemingly painful, blind, hoping, wonderful step to live.
I want to help you in any way I can. ANYTHING. I mean it. If I had had someone stay with me and text me or talk to me all night, just one time, it would have changed my life. I know how hard those nights can be.
^I love this girl more than words can express.
foundmywaywheniwaslost: I am always here if anyone ever needs to talk/vent. You have a purpose, Please Stay Alive. <3
Not just for tonight but for the rest of your life. You have so much to look forward to in the future that if you choose to kill yourself, it will be the biggest mistake of your life. You're going to miss out on people you'll never be able to meet, kids you'll never have, a partner to love or partys to go to. There's just too much that you'll miss out on. You deserve and have the right to be here as much as the person next to you does. You're just a drop in the ocean. You were meant to be here and you have a purpose. Don't ever forget that. And if you feel like you don't, just believe in yourself because you do. If you ever feel worthless or like shit, know that I love you and those dicks that tell you shit are jealous that you're who you are because there's something about you that they wish they could have. Please stay strong and never give up because things DO GET BETTER.
3rd time I reblog this xx
Keep your self awake, I hope your here to stay. This day is not yet over, let me be your four leaf clover.

Students For Life, an organization for high school, college and grad students, has produced an undercover video showing two women posing as young teens buying Sudafed and Plan B. Guess which one they were allowed to buy?
There's a free screening of a documentary critiquing the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child this Friday evening at 7 p.m. at Grandville Church of Christ–3725 44th St. SW. The film makes the case that parental rights have already been dangerously eroded in the United States and would be further eroded if Congress ratified the U.N. treaty. The screening is sponsored by the area chapter of Generation Joshua and is open to the public.
More against the treaty here and here. The Campaign for U.S. Ratification of the
Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) is here.

Unlike Victorian homes of old, we build our homes for minimal maintenance but keeping with the true Victorian style. A fifty (50) year manufacturer's warranty on siding and roofing (Majestic Slate Roof is an option). Trimboards, brackets and gingerbread are made from Azek board and/or high-density foam. All are factory pre-finished or primed two coats – both sides – and painted with Sherwin Williams Duration paint. Practically the only maintenance the homeowner will have is to paint, which offers the opportunity to change the look of your house whenever the time finally comes to paint.
Majestic Slate Roof
Manufactured from recycled polymers, the Majestic Slate roofing on some Victorian Era Homes models provides superior weather protection and durability, while at the same time being environmentally friendly and maintaining the Victorian Style. Majestic Slate comes with a 50-year manufacturer's warranty ensuring a long life for your roof with the appearance of the slate of old.
Azek Trimboard & Victorian Details
Azek trimboards are uniquely suited for outdoor use. Made of a PVC material that guarantees resistance to extremes of nature, keeping your Victorian Era home in perfect shape in any kind of weather, and wood rotting like older victorian homes is a thing of the past.
Fiber-Cement Siding
It may look like traditional clapboard but fiber-cement siding is rot and warp resistant and provides extra protection against fire and termites. Fiber-cement is guaranteed to be long lasting and keep your Victorian Era home looking brand new for years to come. Like the Majestic Slate roof, fiber-cement comes with a 50-year manufacturer's warranty.

Its got everything going for it. Deep virgin forests, gurgling
brooks, breath-taking campsites, miles of undulating meadows, snow and
ice and the taste of a great adventure as you climb from 8,000ft to
16,000ft in 5 days"
Day 1- Kathgodam to Loharjung
You can reach Kathgodam through one of the most famous trains reaching the destination, which is the Ranikhet express. Once you reach here, you would start feeling a change in the entire atmosphere. The Roopkund trek has its starting point from here. The mystery lake trek would give you a remarkable experience
you might just feel that you are living your dream. The Roopkund trek is also known as the skeleton trek as skeletons are what you would see on reaching the destination. Kathgodam is a small yet beautiful place . Once you reach Kathgodam, You can travel easily to Loharjung through the roadway. The roads are narrow, with beautiful curves and would give a good view of the surrounding. The lush green beauty that travels along is amazing.
Day 2- Lohargunj to Didna Village
Just behind the bus stand in Lohargunj, take the trail that takes you to Raun Bagad. It is a fairly marked trail that descends through mixed forests. It is a moderate trek and you would take around 2-2½ hrs to reach the Ruan Bagad, which is an iron bridge across the famous Neel Ganga river. There is also an alternative route to reach here from Lohargunj which is through the road towards Wan. It is an easy 6km walk to Kulling Village where after there is a steep slope towards Ruan Bagad. You can opt for the latter, which is easy to travel but you would certainly miss on the beautiful mixed forests. Hereafter the climb to Didina starts once you cross the iron bridge. It is a difficult climb and you may get tired pretty soon. With a relatively tough time in the beginning, you would reach Didina in about and an hour and a half's time. You would have e great mountaineering experience all this while.
Day 3- Didna Village to Ali Bugyal
To reach Ali Bugyal from Didna, there are two alternative routes. If you look in the direction of the valley, you would look at Tolpani, which is a cluster of huts that belong to the shepherds. It is almost 3 kms away and 1000 feet high. From Tolpani, you take a trail that climbs to Tolkaan in the northern direction. The meadow trek goes through a series of switchbacks and grassy oak mountains. From Tolkaan, you take a sharp left towards the south and steer through the ridge to come out of the forest at Ali Bugyal. The alternative route is to climb directly towards Ali Bugyal without going through Toplani. You would certainly save on distance but it a relatively much steeper and tiring climb. It takes nearly two and a half hours to reach Ali Bugyal on this route. To enjoy the seductive views from Ali Bugyal, you need to reach there before afternoon. It is a great post monsoon trek as well as a pre monsoon trek.
Day 4- Ali Bugyal to Ghora Lotani
The trek from Ali Bugyal to Ghora Latoni is an easy trek. You would follow a straight line ahead of you for about 3 kms. On your gradual increase to the slope, the trek brings you to the other side of the ridge. The view from this point is absolutely marvelous. Ghora Lotani is a brilliant campsite and offers you great views all around. It is an easy day and you will get time to relax and acclimatize to the weather conditions before going ahead with your trekking. In fact, you could consider spending a day here to adapt to the altitude and atmosphere.
Day 5-Ghora Lotani to Bhagwabasa
This is the day when you make a steep dash to gain altitude and finally trek in the snow line. The day's snow trek will bring you to an altitude of 14,500 ft from 12,500 ft. It is an high altitude trekking and you would start feeling the effects of weather change and thin air and definitely the effects of high altitude. You would have to start your day early as you would like to reach Bhawabasa as early to acclimatize to the weather. Your route takes a climb to Kalu Vinayak, which is a steep and zig-zag way to take you up the mountain. Go through this section carefully and slowly. It takes around one and a half hours to reach Kalu Vinayak. The route from Kalu Vinayak to Bhagwabasa is simple and gradually sloping downwards. Bhagwabasa is 2 kms away and you can have a view of the Bhagwabasa huts from here. The trail towards Bhagwabasa goes through snow patches and you would enjoy the journey.
Day 6- Bhagwabasa to Roopkund.
Return to Bedni Bugyal You have to start the day as early as 5 AM. The sooner you start, the better it is for you as the snow is still hard, while later in the day, it would get soft and your feet would start sinking in. Roopkund is a 5 km gradually up-hill climb from Bhagwabasa. You will have steep climb towards the end of the trail to reach Roopkund. It would take about 3 - 3½ hours to reach Roopkund. Once you climb to Roopkund, you must climb up to Junargali. Trekkers must visit unless the weather is very harsh and does not permit you. The climb to Junargali is not long. It is around 200 ft and doesn't take much time. It is hardly a climb of 25 - 30 min. You can start off early to return back to Bedni Bugyal via Bhagwabasa. You need to be careful in trekking back as the snowy slopes may trick you.
Day 7- Bedni Bugyal to Lohajung via Wan.
Bedni to wan (trek) wan to lohajung (drive) It is a great journey back to Lohajung via Wan. The path is fairly simple and you would not feel any distress throughout. You would cross the oak forest as you go and the scenic beauty is just mesmerizing. You would see the end of meadows after a few minutes. On a clear day, you would be astonished by looking at the Trishul on your way back from Bedni Bugyal to Wan. You would go down the Rhododendron forest. You would have a steep descent for the Neel Ganga. Faster trekkers reach there in approximately one and a half hours. However you should take your time and enjoy the beauty as you go by. From the river, it takes about half an hour to climb to the ridge above Wan village. Overall it takes about 6 and half an hour to Wan and it is an hour's drive back to Lohajung.
Day 8- Loharjung to Kathgodam
After getting to the base camp at Loharjung and finishing the Roopkund trek, you might think of spending a day at Loharjung. This is a great place to relax and chill out after your high altitude trek that has left your adrenaline pumping. You would enjoy the weather but definitely miss what you had at Roopkund or on its way. Travelling back to Loharjung is pretty simple and doesn't really require any skill. An enjoyable road-trip to end the lake trek on an exhilarating note.

Ya you could. But depending on the fight an armor pot is sometimes better for the pull.
I have been tanking with my warrior since UBRS and it has changed to some degree but it is the same at the core. I have been working on Yogg recently and phase 1 on that fight is a bi*ch! I can handle it. I can get through it but all it takes is someone hitting the adds before they reach me and it becomes a mess. You can't charge to the adds since you have to stay out of clouds and your taunt is on a 10 sec cooldown unless your vigilance target gets hit. Your only other hope is heroic throw as a Oh S**t button or your aoe taunt. TC can be good if the target is near you but you don't always have that luxury. I love tanking. LOVE IT! But people need to understand how hard the first few seconds of a fight is on us especially if you happen to dodge an attack or 2. I am so sick of hearing how they are used to the Paladin threat.
Sure, and you can use a pre-combat dps potion, too. Do you? of course not. No one should need to use consumables to be able to do their job on trash, ESPECIALLY consumables to fill the primary resource that even allows you to do your job AT ALL.
Not to mention the chain-pulling that takes place in many cases. You would never leave combat long enough to use another pot, and if you did it would end up being very expensive just to meet minimum tanking requirements.
yes... but what for? with shield spec you block enough and gain enough rage where in an aoe pack rage isnt a problem, instead its that you have to work around a 6 second and 20 second cooldown as you're only real aoe threat dealers. theres damage shield, but thats minor, as are all the shouts. so you wind up tabbing around and hitting individuals with devastates and HS's. luckily if you time it right, and the mobs are stunnable you can usually Tclap, shockwave, and when the stun wears off Tclap again.

or your DPS could wait 2 globals before burning aoe packs... warrior threat and snap threat are great though on single target.

Wowowowow! This is my third day in a row posting about my Bible Reading Plan (I had only planned to post once a week), but this one is too good to pass up. D.A. Carson is commenting on Mark 7 and what Jesus has to say about "traditions". First he makes the very helpful distinction between how we moderns distinguish which traditions are good or bad. This, we tend to do on the basis of social acceptability rather than what is true in scripture. He writes:
In short, we make distinctions on the basis of the social effects of traditions, not on the basis of whether or not they are true. But in the New Testament, traditions are praised or criticized not on the basis of their social function but in light of their conformity or departure from the Word of God.
Now, why is this so important? Well, this is one of the main complaints Evangelicals have against liberals who prefer the social function of a particular interpretation of scripture, or tradition, over what conforms to the Word of God. Which obviously is a problem. But Carson also turns it around brilliantly. All I can say is… Ooohh.. That cuts to the heart.
We must recognize that confessing evangelicals who nominally eschew tradition sometimes embrace traditions that effectively domesticate the Word of God. These may be traditional interpretations of Scripture, or traditional ecclesiastical practices, or traditional forms of conduct that are "allowed" in our circles but that are a long way from holy Scripture. In every case, fidelity to Christ mandates reformation by the Word of God.
(D.A. Carson, For the Love of God Vol. 1, p. 341).

UPDATE: [January 14, 2012: We have received anonymous reports (unverified) that collection agencies including GC Services are telling people they are not eligible for amnesty because there is a civil assessment on the case, or another FTA case open. DO NOT TRUST INFO on whether or not you qualify for traffic ticket amnesty from anyone other than: 1) the superior court traffic court Division Clerk; or 2) an Attorney who checked with the court. OK- as you were]
Hoorayh!!!! Suspended Drivers License? Failure to Appear? Missed Court date? Missed Fine Payment! Happiness bounds in the land of Honnalee for you because there is a new California Traffic Ticket Amnesty Program!
Sound too good to be true? Well, your instincts are right. There are lots of restrictions, and even if your case(s) qualify, you only get a 50% discount on the court's insanely inflated fines, fees, penalties, civil assessments, penalty assessments, and imaginary "abstract fees".
And some drivers who qualify, such as victims of identity theft, can actually benefit by declining the Amnesty Program and instead demanding a trial.
|Our end conclusion is that the Amnesty Program is really more like a coupon for only those people who can pay in full and want to plead guilty to everything.
But there is a lot of good news here too. People with lots of old traffic tickets can actually save a lot of money by acting fast, and some people may be able to get their drivers license back faster than they thought.
But as we will see below, even with the Amnesty Program, people with old traffic tickets from many years and bench warrants, or misdemeanor charges will benefit from hiring an Attorney to solve the whole problem.
In this free legal self help article, we break down California's 2012 Traffic Ticket Amnesty Program for you.
1. Amnesty Program Only Lasts 6 Months.
For the next six months, Starting January 1st through June 30th, 2012, Certain unpaid traffic tickets are eligible for a 50% discount – if you pay the claimed "debt" in full during this 6 month amnesty period.
After this six month period, the Amnesty Program ends completely.
2. Limitations of the Traffic Ticket Amnesty Program.
The program includes all unpaid adult and juvenile vehicle code and non vehicle code infractions prior to 2009.
Now here's the fine print: ALL of the following conditions must be met to be eligible:
a) You have an outstanding traffic debt that was due to be paid in full before January 1, 2009.
b) The last date you made a payment was on or before January 1, 2009.
c) You either failed to appear in court or failed to pay in full.
d) You don't owe restitution to a victim on any case within the county where the violation was filed.
e) You have no outstanding misdemeanor or felony warrants within the county where the violation was filed.
If your case qualified, the total amount you owe can be cut in half. You will have to pay if off in one lump sum.
Source: CA Judicial Council
1) Tickets issued after January 1, 2009 Do Not Qualify.
Failure to Appear cases From January 2009 – now do not qualify. Your failure to appear / failure to pay case must be at least 2 years old to qualify for the amnesty. (local courts are allowed to make exceptions, but we do not expect any exceptions).
2) Cases Involving Driving on a Suspended Drivers License (Veh Code 14601.1), DUI (Veh Code 23152), and Reckless Driving offenses Do Not Qualify
Cases involving misdemeanors are not covered.
3) Bench Warrants Disqualify a Person from the Program
If you have a warrant pending in the county where your old traffic tickets are pending, you are disqualified from the program completely. 1 warrant = none of your cases qualify for the Amnesty.
4) If You Have a Defense, The Amnesty Program Will Not Help You.
The Amnesty Program requires defendants to plead guilty to everything in the court's file, including failure to appear violations.
For defendants who are victims of identity theft, the court ignores you and the Amnesty Program will not allow you to present evidence that it was not you.
Defendants who did not receive any notice of the violation do not benefit from the Amnesty program. There is nothing in the Amnesty program to help those people who had the court change their date without notice, and who then later ended up with a suspended drivers license. To use the Amnesty program, these drivers must admit they intentionally skipped a court appearance – even if they did not.
Defendants with Proof of Correction violations cannot show proof of correction. So if you have proof that you sold that car with the registration violation, you may actually be able to save more money by ignoring the Amnesty program and going in to ask a judge to accept your proof of sale.
Step 1: Figure Out Which of Your Cases May Qualify.
If you have failure to appear cases that you think may qualify, you need to get a list of them. You need: 1) the case #; 2) the date of the citation; 3) the courthouse location.
You can get this information by contacting the court clerks office, or in some advanced courts, checking the court's on line services to look up the case. Going to the courthouse in person is best.
If you have no idea what court your case is in, you can probably contact the Department of Motor Vehicles "Driver Safety Office" to get information on the cases causing a suspension on your drivers license. The DMV can give you the courthouse location(s) for your drivers license holds caused by failure to appear cases (VC 40509.5 holds).
Warning!: DO NOT TRUST THE CASE OR DOCKET NUMBERS THE DMV GIVES YOU. THEY ARE FAKE NUMBERS MADE UP BY THE DMV AND THEY VERY RARELY MATCH THE REAL COURT CASE #s. The only info you really want from DMV is the courthouse location. Then contact the court for details on the case.
Getting a copy of your driving record will not help you, because generally those reports do not show the courthouse locations on the FTA holds – instead they list some completely useless DMV "Court Code". Because of this DMV stupidity problem, you must go to DMV in person or talk to a real human on the phone for the info.
Step 2: Take Care of Any Pending Warrant Cases First.
If you have a bench or arrest warrant for a case, take care of that first. It is the #1 priority. Request a Free Attorney Case Review from us if you want an Attorneys help. Sometimes attorneys can clear minor bench warrants in a day or two.
Start early on the warrant problems. Like Now. I say this because it may take time, and any time you have a pending warrant, jail time is a possibility.
Step 3: Pay Off Any Restitution You Owe First.
If you owe a victim in a court case restitution (because you crashed into the quickiei mart while drunk and high on GHB), you have to pay it all off first, prior to taking advantage of the Amnesty Program.
Step 4: Go to the Courthouse With Money and Ask the Court Clerk to Apply the Amnesty Program Discount.
Once you have determined that your case(s) do qualify and you have cleared the warrant and restitution issues, you need to go to the courthouse and:
a) ask for the Amnesty Discount;
b) pay in full;
c) get proof you paid;
d) ask the court clerk to release the drivers license holds (VC40509.5 holds); and then finally,
e) go to the Department of Motor Vehicles in person to get your driving privilege reinstated (once all holds are cleared, even if you never had a drivers license in CA).
And that my friends is our best advice on how to take advantage of the Traffic Ticket Amnesty Program.
There are many cases that may qualify for the 50% discount, but it may not be a good idea for the defendant to plead guilty to everything and take the discount. For example, what if you are the victim of identity theft and dont want to pay at all? Or what if you have a serious DMV negligent driver points problem, and pleading guilty to everything will give you a new drivers license suspension?
Well, in those sorts of cases where there may be a defense or better option (like maybe traffic school?), requesting an Arraignment and working on the case may produce a better result.
What if you have a pending driving on a suspended drivers license case with a bench warrant and you are afraid of jail time? Want us to sort it out for you?
You can hire an Attorney to clear up all of your outstanding cases whether or not you qualify for the Amnesty Program.
Request a Free Attorney Case Review, give us as much info as possible on all open cases you have, and we will try to figure it out for you!
