The average Iris person is presumed to create 17 tonnes of carbon a year. This is called our carbon footprint. Since the ratification of the Kyoto agreement by Ireland 2002 which seen quotas on carbon been produced,the value of the carbon credit has realised real wealth.
The average carbon credit in "laymans terms" trades on the open market for E20 per tonne. Companies with a big carbon production rate say 40,000 tonnes and a quota for only 10,000tonnes ,must purchase the deficit of carbon credits (30,000 tonnes) on the open market or invest in new carbon reducing machinery. read full story / add a comment

As someone who grew up in the culture of child abuse in east Galway, which now seems to be leading the country's policy on abortion or more accurately the lack thereof, I have always wanted to ask two principal questions, primarily to the enablers of systemic child abuse in Ireland.
Currently despite all the publicity about the culture of child rape in Ireland, the priority is the protection of the unborn to the detriment of the already born. I ask any decent person, if there still exists such a specimen on our island, with an ounce of nature left in them, to think about what I have written and have the courage to make a reply, that makes sense without getting personal. read full story / add a comment

Unions, which organized the rallies, claimed more than 100,000 people attended, with 60,000 marching in Dublin. Demonstrators also protested in Cork, Galway, Limerick, Sligo and Waterford.
"It would be fatal for people to believe this issue is now resolved and we can all move on," David Begg a supposed Union leader said. "At the onset of the crisis Ireland had one of the lowest debt to GDP ratios in Europe. The difference between then and now is due entirely to Ireland socializing bank debt at the behest of the ECB, to save the European banking system."

The BBC dominates the airwaves in Ireland, with Irish national broadcaster RTE still unavailable in most parts of British Occupied Ireland. Despite a peace process, the propaganda of the BBC still pollutes Irish politics and life. With the leader of the British Labour party, Ed Miliband calling for an independent inquiry into "horrific allegations" rather than a planned BBC internal cover-up of allegations on a BBC culture, of enabling child rape for decades. Many believe that the BBC's influence on the rape of children, to be of an even greater scale, than the Catholic Church. read full story / add a comment

Irish writer Brendan Behan said that other people have a nationality; the Irish and Jews have a psychosis. The Neo-colonial free state and British Occupied Ireland are both run by liars telling obvious lies, still worse, almost everyone in Ireland chooses to believe them Israel too has similar problems with choosing corrupt leaders like Ireland. Bottom line this is insane and this form of insanity can best be summarized, as telling oneself lies and insanely choosing consciously to believe them. Perhaps, it was developed for survival in the face of the holocaust or abject adversity but both communities experienced it.The results today are Government liars portrayed in the heavily censored west-brit Irish media, as either behemoth buffoons like former Taoiseach Brian Cowen or as Blue blooded imported Brit leaders, above scrutiny or reproach, such as the contemporary Viceroyal Villiers.

Premiere Review: GLEE season 4 - "The New Rachel"
When I said last night in one of my tweets that the premiere of Glee season 4 will probably wow me than X Factor season 2 did, I really thought it will be. But I was wrong, it did more than just wow me! It literally gave me chills!
The search for the new Rachel. This is an issue brought to you by the one and only Jacob Ben Israel. Personally, I would've also given that title to Blaine, but after hearing the new comer Marley Rose (Melissa Benoist) sing "New York State of Mind" with the original Rachel Berry, I thought WOW! She's the new Rachel!
The badasses. Jake Puckerman (Jacob Artist) had a voice that I never imagined he would possess. I understand Jake—he doesn't want to live in the shadows of his half-brother. Brody Weston (Dean Geyer), I think, will be Finn's biggest competition. But is Brody better than Finn? If he is, then there is that big possibility that him and Rachel can be the hot new item. Kitty (Becca Tobin) looks like a cat. She's nothing like Quinn Fabraym in my opinion. Quinn is still the bichiest girl on Glee (not counting Santana), no doubt about that.
Kate Hudson. Is. Hot. Well? What can you expect from THE Kate Hudson? She did a great job of playing Cassandra July, the dance teacher that will make Rachel's every waking moment a living hell. That's it. I want MORE Kate Hudson.
The Glee Project. I wonder why Ryan Murphy is giving more spotlight to Wade "Unique" Adams (Alex Newell) than Joe Hart (Samuel Larsen). Samuel won TGP season 1 and in my opinion should continue to get more attention. If Ryan's gonna do that, I think he should also bring back Harmony (Lindsay Pearce), give her a better storyline; and Rory Flanagan (Damian McGinty) even though I think he didn't contribute to the improvement of Glee season 3. Let's see if Ryan has bigger plans for TGP2 winner Blake Jenner who will play Ryder.
Next episode will be Britney 2.0! Well, that's Britney, bitch. But I think I want more Madonna songs from Glee.
All in all, "The New Rachel" for me is the best first episode Glee had since season 2. I hope this keeps up!

LICKING, Mo. (KMOX) — The Missouri State Highway Patrol had to use the agency's helicopter to rescue two turkey hunters who became stranded by rising flood waters in Texas County.
The hunters called for help around 3 p.m. Thursday after they became trapped by flood waters near Boiling Springs, south of Licking, Missouri. Highway officials say one of the men was confined to a wheelchair.
Because of the remote location, first responders determined the best way to rescue the men was with the patrol's helicopter.
The men were identified as Keith Duckworth, 54, and Wayne Arling, 53, both of St. Louis, Missouri.
The patrol says in a news release that Duckworth was taken to a St. Louis area hospital for evaluation and treatment for exposure.

Syria rebels fight for police academy near AleppoThe Associated Press | February 25,2013BEIRUT Rebels backed by captured tanks launched a fresh offensive on a government complex housing a police academy near the northern city of Aleppo on Sunday, while the government hit back with airstrikes to try to protect the strategic installation, activists said.
If rebels capture the complex on the outskirts of Aleppo, it would mark another setback for President Bashar Assad. In recent weeks, his regime has lost control of key infrastructure in the northeast including a hydroelectric dam, a major oil field and two army bases along the road linking Aleppo with the airport to its east.
Rebels also have been hitting the heart of Damascus with occasional mortars shells or bombings, posing a stiff challenge to the regime in its seat of power.
On Saturday, opposition fighters in the eastern province of Deir el-Zour overran a military post believed to have once been the site of a partly built nuclear reactor that Israeli warplanes bombed in 2007.
A year after the strike, the U.N. nuclear watchdog determined that the destroyed buildings size and structure fit specifications of a nuclear reactor. Syria never stated the purpose of the site known as Al-Kibar.
After the bombing, the regime carted away all the debris from the destroyed building and equipment from the two standing structures, analysts said, adding that the rebels were unlikely to have found any weapons in the abandoned complex.
There were troops in the area until this weekend. It was not clear what the site was being used for most recently.
Its more or less a shell because the Syrians decided to remove everything inside the buildings, said Mustafa Alani, an analyst with the Gulf Research Center in Geneva. I dont think theres anything left really of any value for the rebels.
Separately, rebels have been trying for months to storm the government complex west of Aleppo in the suburb of Khan al-Asal, according to Rami Abdul-Rahman, the director of the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
The facility also includes several smaller army outposts charged with protecting the police academy inside the compound.
The SANA state news agency said regime troops repelled the rebel attack on the police academy, inflicting heavy losses and destroying four armored vehicles and three cars fitted with machine guns. There was no word on government casualties.
Aleppo has been the scene of some of the heaviest fighting of Syrias nearly 2-year-old conflict.
In July, rebels launched an offensive on the city, the countrys largest and one-time commercial capital, and quickly seized several neighborhoods. The battle has since devolved into a bloody stalemate, with heavy street fighting that has left whole districts in ruins and forced thousands to flee.
A key focus for the rebels as they try to capture the city is Aleppos international airport, which they have been attacking for weeks.
Regime forces also fired an apparent ground-to-ground missile Sunday on the town of Tal Rifat, some 30 kilometers (20 miles) north of Aleppo, the Observatory said. There was no immediate word on casualties.
The report follows similar strikes last week on impoverished rebel-held Aleppo neighborhoods that killed at least 60 people.
Also on Sunday, prominent Syrian comedian Yassin Bakoush was killed in Damascus after apparently being caught in the crossfire between rebels and government troops.
Bakoush, 75, was known for playing characters that were likeable but naive and dim-witted. SANA said he is survived by11 children.
SANA said Yassin Bakoush was killed by a rebel mortar round that landed on his car in the Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp in southern Damascus, which has seen heavy fighting in recent months. However, the anti-regime Observatory said Bakoush was killed when a rocket-propelled grenade launched by government forces slammed into his car.
French freelance photographer Olivier Voisin, who was wounded on Thursday in Syria and taken to Turkey for treatment, died of his wounds at an Istanbul hospital, the French Foreign Ministry said Sunday.
Voisin is the second French journalist this year to be killed while reporting on the civil war, which has proven to be one of the most dangerous conflicts for reporters to cover.
In Lebanon, two people were killed by Syrian shells and gunfire that landed on Lebanese territory near the border.
The state-run National News Agency in Lebanon said a man was killed and his brother was wounded by shells that slammed into the town of al-Hisheh in the Wadi Khaled area of the north, while another man was killed by gunfire in the area of al-Buqaiaa.
The deaths added to tensions in the area which has seen an escalation of violence in recent days. The civil war in Syria has increasingly spilled over into Lebanon with almost daily reports of cross-border shelling or gunfire in border areas.
The United Nations says at least 70,000 people have been killed since the uprising against Assads authoritarian rule began nearly two years ago.
Efforts to stop the bloodshed so far have failed, leaving the international community at a loss of how to end the civil war.
A senior opposition leader said Sunday that his umbrella group has suspended participation in meetings with its Western backers and their Arab allies because of their indifference over the regimes attacks on the Syrian people in Aleppo and other cities.
Assad has reached the stage of real genocide amid Arab silence and we renounce that, George Sabra, vice president of the Syrian National Coalition, said in Cairo after meeting Arab League chief Nabil Elaraby.
On Friday, the Coalition said its leaders would not travel to Washington or Moscow for any talks to protest the international communitys silence over crimes committed by the regime. It also said opposition leaders would boycott a meeting next month in Rome of the Friends of Syria, which includes the United States and its European allies.
In Washington, the State Department condemned rocket attacks on Aleppo, saying in a statement late Saturday the strikes are the latest demonstrations of the Syrian regimes ruthlessness and its lack of compassion for the Syrian people it claims to represent.MORE IN Wire NewsHONOLULU A shipping company pleaded guilty plea Friday to criminal charges from a 1,400-ton...

If I could gather every kiss,
and touch,
and glance across crowded rooms,
then latch them all together like links in a chain,
I would do exactly that.
I would tether my heart to hers,
like the most willing anchor,
or the sweetest padlock,
and rest easy in the safety of us.
once upon a time
i believed my life to be a fairy tale
i thought I knew what love was
i thought i was safe
i thought I knew what happiness felt like
I thought i knew
i thought i knew
i thought i knew
and then one cool March night
i stood in the street with a girl who made my palms sweat
and my my heart pound
and my knees weak
and i was suddenly introduced to everything i ever thought i knew
This picture was taken of me the day after I met Talia.
I had been rebuilding myself day by day, week by week, month by month, trying to learn how to be me without my wife by my side.
I had let myself fall ever so slightly in love with moments, or girls, or women, or friends. I had started living in a way that was new, and vibrant, and without apology.
I had somehow survived, and somehow felt more whole than ever before.
This was me on a day that I knew was the first of many perfect days, because I had finally found her, and she had found me.
It's a hot summer day and I'm somewhere close to 8 or 9 years old.
My shoulders are pink from the sun. My face smells like the Noxzema my Grandma had rubbed on my sunburned nose when I got out of the swimming pool smelling like the perfect mixture of chlorine and grape Kool-Aid.
My brother and I climb into the far back of my grandparent's wood paneled station wagon.
"Don't tell your Mother I let you ride back there," my Grandfather says as he starts the engine.
The car smells like hot upholstery and my Grandmother's perfume.
My Grandpa sings Perry Como songs out the corner of his mouth and through the end of his toothpick.
My Grandmother sits with her right elbow propped in the window and and her perfectly painted pink fingernails picking at the seam of the sill like always.
I slip off my jelly shoes. I stretch out my legs and press my bare feet to the hot glass of the hatch back.
I can feel the ridges from the defrost lines on the hot soles of my feet.
My grandparents bicker in the front of the car between verses of It's A God Day.
My brother tries to convince me that the wood paneling is made out of giant lincoln logs and I almost believe him.
I sing along to songs written far too long ago for a kid my age.
I press my face to the hot upholstery and let it itch my cheeks.
We pull into the little ice cream shop on a street lined with families all living the same easy summer day.
My brother and I empty out of the car like monkeys in a barrel. My grandmother takes her time fixing her hair and reapplying lipstick. My grandfather twists the toothpick in his mouth with frustration, "Come on Rose, your face looks just perfect," he says in a less than patient tone.
She gets out of the car, tosses her purse over her shoulder, and leads us like lambs into the ice cream shop while my Grandfather reads a newspaper in the driver's seat to the tune of Frank Sinatra.
I met her on a Sunday.
I sat at a picnic table on a candle lit patio
and tried to tame the butterflies in my stomach.
The first time I touched her
we were comparing the size of our hands,
I placed my palm against her palm
and felt my heart skip a thousand beats.
I talked too much
and flipped my hair like a school girl hoping to get asked to dance.
By midnight I was walking to my car.
My boots fell heavy on the sidewalk.
She followed me.
We stood in the street until my toes were numb from the cold.
My thoughts rambled
and my words fell out of my mouth in unfamiliar jumbled sentences.
I've never struggled so desperately to look a girl in the eyes.
But her eyes are not like any other.
And something in me knew with such certainty
that her face would rest easy in the palms of my hands.
"Meet me at 4:30 tomorrow, and pack a bag for 4 days and 3 nights."
I asked what to bring.
She makes me a list with bullet points that include things like "that laugh I can't get enough of, your body your body your body…"
And regarding clothes:
"…two dresses with non functional shoes, two semi-dressy outfits with shoes you can walk more than 6 blocks in, three casual outfits, *clothes to sleep in very much optional."
I have no idea where she's taking me.
I feel like I'm 17.
In lieu of flowers
she leaves
records on my shelves,
in my car,
in my office,
without me ever knowing how she does it
or where they've come from.
She slips
books under my pillow when she's making my bed,
or sneaks them to the hostess at the restaurant to have waiting on the table.
The waitress places a small white book silently next to me
while we sit candlelit in a crowded restaurant.
She writes something lovely
in perfect penmanship
inside the pages of anything she gives me.
I'll flirt with your mind
until I can no longer
stand not touching you
When I look floored by her actions she looks back at me and grins and tells me I deserve this.
As if these are things that people do.
On a random Monday,
she tells me
"pack a bag, and don't ask me any questions".
She drives me through a rainy haze for over an hour.
She loves that I don't know where we're headed.
She steers the car with her knees and gestures big with her hands.
She tells me her heartaches and I tell her mine.
I want to make her words into edible things
and eat them all for late night snacks.
We drive through an empty town glowing yellow with dim streetlight.
I can smell the ocean when I step out of the car.
Haystack Rock has been put to bed under nighttime skies.
Wine on the beach with a moon draped in clouds.
We sit on a log and drink straight from the bottle.
We watch the water pool in the dark like ink on the sand.
"I've never seen the ocean look like this," she says more than once as she grips my hand in the most perfect way.
I feel the salt in the air.
My long curls are starting to tangle in the ocean wind.
Rain starts pelting
and it drips down my cheeks like the happiest of tears.
After the best kind of sleepless night
we lay in bed laughing in sweet morning banter.
We listen to Motown and sigh and smile at the start of the same songs.
She's cutting a pineapple on the hotel counter.
Aretha Franklin is singing sweetly in our ears with her long o's and stretched out u's.
you send me,
you send me,
honest you do, honest you do, honest you do,
I take a shower and try to grasp how this could be my life.
This perfect girl
with dimples that make me forget how to form sentences,
and eyes that turn
from blue
to green
and back to blue,
and a kiss that brings me
to my
fucking knees.
She tells me to meet her at the barbershop.
I walk in and she's not there.
I start looking around.
The two girls at the front desk giggle and tell me they have something for me, then hand me a wrapped record and smile sweetly then say "you can open it here if you like…"
I'm smiling so big I can hardly breath.
The card on the outside is typed on the typewriter I bought her for her birthday.
I open it while the girls watch intently.
It's an album that I mentioned used to break my heart, but now sounds so very different.
"You have managed to rewrite very single song to fit perfectly", it reads in soft faded type.
"Meet me where I first held your hand".
I walk down Alberta street.
I see her there where we first held hands.
She's leaning perfectly on a bike rack.
She walks towards me as I walk towards her.
We're both grinning like lovesick teenagers.
This is somehow my life.
Summer is coming and I can feel the nostalgia scratching at my bones.
My childhood smelled like charcoal grills, and fresh cut grass.
My blonde hair constantly turning green from too much time in the swimming pool.
My skin perfectly scented with the mix of chlorine and sunscreen.
I can squeeze my eyes tight and see a day that's locked sweetly in the corners of my mind.
It's hot.
Too hot.
You can practically smell the sun.
My Dad is mowing the lawn.
My brother is under the willow tree in the backyard reading a book that I wish I could remember the title of. My mom is at the edge of the L shaped swimming pool about to dive in.
She looks up at the sun.
She squints her hazel eyes.
She dives in with barely the slightest splash.
She swims the length of the pool without surfacing like a mermaid in a one piece bathing suit. Down and back, and down again. She breaks the surface slowly and spits at the water with her exhale. Her brown curls have gone sleek and smooth. She smiles at me and tells me to get in.
My Dad gets off the lawn mower, "your pride and joy", as my Mom used to call it. A 1960's John Deer still in perfect shape.
He pulls off his straw hat.
He kicks off his shoes and I can see the green ring from the grass stains on the ankles of his socks.
He takes the stairs into the water. He didn't know how to swim until my Mom taught him when he was somewhere close to 25 years old so he still looks out of sorts in the water. He moves around the edges of the pool scrubbing the walls with a pool brush.
My mom gets out and lays down on the diving board, her feet dangling over the edge and skimming the surface of the water.
She asks me to play her a song.
I walk onto the porch and open the big yellow cabinet where the stereo is. I smell the dust and want to wrap my arms around the familiar way it smells.
I dig through the options.
I can't make up my mind, and then without looking up my Dad says, "Joni Mitchell…Mary, when it comes to your Mother always pick Joni Mitchell".
I can almost hear her smiling.
I play this moment like my favorite record.
I lift the needle on this single track and see it again, and again, and again.
It was Valentine's Day.
I was sitting having drinks with a friend.
I was gripping the candle in the center of the table with my hands, and sipping sangria from a mason jar.
I notice an email come in.
It's my Mom.
She doesn't do that.
She doesn't email, or call, or reach out, or acknowledge that I still exist.
She's asking questions about how I am, and where I'm living, and how my job is. She's trying to small talk with a daughter she disowned 7 years ago virtually the instant I came out.
I respond quickly with only the facts.
She responds just as quickly, but this time I can feel some emotion.
She's asking how I am. She's saying she's been thinking of me.
I leave the bar.
I sit down in the driver's seat of my little silver GTI.
I dial her number.
"Hi honey, I was hoping you'd call, " she says quickly instead of hello.
"Hi Mom, I'm good…really, I'm good."
We start talking about small things at first and then things start to layer into the most genuine conversation I have had with her since the day they disowned me.
I tell her I love her. I miss her. I never stop missing her.
She's crying.
I'm crying.
"My biggest fear is that you think that we don't love you…that you think that this isn't just killing us…and your Dad…honey, he can't even talk to me let alone get on the phone with you…"
I stop her.
"Mom, I know you love me. I know that you do. I find myself defending you and Dad and your convictions…I understand…"
She interrupts me with a mouth full of tears.
"Well I'm glad YOU understand, because I certainly don't. I don't understand at all. But I know that this is who you are and I just want you to be happy."
She pauses.
I wipe my tears.
The phone is getting hot on my ear.
My car smells like my perfume.
"You know that you were supposed to be a boy. We were going to name you Michael. We had blue EVERYTHING. And then you came out, and you were this perfect little girl. And the first thing I did was buy every book I could find on raising a strong willed daughter. It was all I wanted for you…for you to be strong, and brave, and happy. And now when people ask me about my daughter I tell them that you are the strongest person I know, and that you have never let ANYONE stand in your way of what you want. I may not agree with your choices, but I am so very, very proud of you. Pleas know that."
I'm sobbing.
She's sobbing.
I can't even form a sentence.
"It's not a 'choice' Mom. It's just who I am," I sigh, "I just wish you and Dad had the chance to know me like this…the real me."
She sighs as well.
"I know you Mary, you're my daughter. I know you."
She then tells me she thinks I need time to just be me. Be single. Be on my own. She tells me she can't understand any person who would walk away from me so easily.
"I know I have a propensity to jump into relationships," I say with a smile.
"No, Mary Ellen, you don't have a propensity to jump into relationships, you just have a propensity to JUMP. You have always thought the grass is greener on the other side of EVERY fence, and if you got there and it wasn't green, well, then you were going to paint it green."
I'm laughing.
She laughs with me.
She makes some comparison to my life and to that theory that alcoholics shouldn't date until they've kept a plant alive for a year.
"Just get a plant Mary," she says as we laugh, "and maybe your plant is actually a person you're dating…just don't move in with the plant."
We laugh more.
We have the same laugh. I've always loved knowing I got my laugh from her.
It feels like I can breath for the first time in years.
"I admire the woman you are, " she says clearly.
I thank her.
She gets quiet.
"Have I ever told you that the day after that day in the church 7 years ago, that I started walking 3 miles a day by myself. And you know your father likes to be by my side all of the time, so I had to explain to him that those three miles is when I talk to you. Some days, all I do is apologize to you. I feel like I've failed you in so many ways…"
I'm wiping tears with my sleeves.
"Mom I'm still here…you can call me. We can talk. I miss you so much, and I don't know how to get past it. I can't replace you and Dad with anything or anyone."
She's sniffling and sighs again.
"You know, I always felt so comfortable knowing that you had Natalie's family at least, and mostly that you had her Mom, and when you told me that she left you and your marriage was over, well, I realized that my little girl was all alone, and that I couldn't help you, or be there, and that's when I realized how much I have failed you."
We continue to talk through endless tears and stuffy noses.
She mentions that she has wanted to have me come visit them, but that she knew that I would never come without my wife, and that she respected that so she never asked, because they couldn't allow us both in their home. She asked if I would consider a visit now that I don't have my wife.
"Mom, even without my marriage to Natalie, I'm still gay. Her absence doesn't make me any less gay, just like my marriage to Sean didn't make me any more straight. Does that make sense?"
"Yes. Yes it does," she says calmly.
We keep talking a bit longer. She tells me that this is the closest she's felt to me in years. I agreed.
We say I love you.
We hang up.
And soon after she sends me this email:
Thank you so much for your phone call. I know we are so far apart, in distance and in lifestyles, but I still love you so much, and is so many ways still feel very close to you. Thank you for taking the time to talk with me, to tell me about yourself, your life, your hurts, your hopes. In many ways, it makes me feel like I am still your mom and can help in some small way. I feel I have let you down in so many ways.
I love you,
I haven't heard from her since.
I don't expect to.
Nothing will change.
Nothing needs to change.
We had a phone call on a Thursday night.
I sat in my car and cried with my Mom while the rain pelted my car and I wiped my tears on my sleeves.
She told me she loved me.
She told me she didn't understand.
She told me she was proud of me.
This is all I can ask for.
We can try to water down this love
but we'll both still be able to taste it.
Pour our sleepless nights into mason jars
and leave them next to bedside tables in houses
that neither of us call home.
We can go back to that spot in the street
and look up at the sky and ask how we got here.
We can continue to not say those words,
those three
that are somehow bigger than all of the others
and covered in dust that is not yet settled
and far too heavy for Sunday mornings spent apart.
Make no mistake,
this is not something sad,
we're watering roots with worry and heartache
but something is growing that we can't see.
So water it down.
And sip it slowly.
Taste the sweetness of this.
Pour it out, or drink it up.
Feed the roots from inside or out.
Water them well, and feel them tangle and twist
and tether yourself to the trunk of our tree
Feed the roots,
watch the soil turn to mud,
then kiss me good morning,
and spend your Sunday's wrapped inside my sighs.
Before my wife left I never felt the need to have pictures of my estranged parents anywhere in the house.
Six years spent filling our walls and shelves with pictures of happiness between she and I…I never felt compelled to have reminders of the family that no longer wanted me.
Since she left I have found myself digging through boxes searching for some kind of proof that I once had family.
These were all I could find.
They are clipped to my bathroom vanity with tiny wooden clothespins.
My Dad kissing me on the forehead when I was 16, long before I broke his heart by coming out.
My brother and I having our hands held by my Mom at Disney World. Me still in diapers and a dress that my Grandmother made. My mom's skin brown from too much Florida sun. My brother in knee socks with a toothy grin.
My Mom by the pool at our beach house in Naples. I took that picture. It was always my favorite. I thought she was more beautiful than any other Mom at the beach. I was somewhere close to 12 years old, and my Mom was my best friend.
This is all I have left of them.
My Dad's birthday was on the 2nd. I usually call on birthdays and major holidays (even though they rarely answer). This year I decided I'm tired of giving everything to people who give me nothing in return. I didn't call.
The day after his birthday my phone rang.
Mom cell
My chest tightens. I feel the tears before I even answer.
Her voice was nervous. She's called me no more than 5 times in the almost 7 years since they disowned me.
We talk the usual chit chat. The weather, my job, more weather.
Then I hear my Dad in the background. My heart stops at the sound of his voice. It's been at least 4 years since he's spoken to me at all.
"Oh is Dad there?" I say in the smallest voice I have.
"He just walked off the 18th green," she says.
I know she's passing him the phone. I can almost smell the golf course on his clothes. I'm terrified and so thrilled to know I'm about to talk to my Dad.
And then he says it.
The words I miss the most from him.
"Hey Babe."
Suddenly I'm 14 years old dying for approval from my Dad.
"Hi Dad," I say fighting back tears, "I'm sorry I didn't call…did you have a good birthday?"
He tells me where they went for dinner, as if I couldn't have guessed not only the place, but also every single thing they ordered. As if I had somehow forgotten how sweetly routine they are. As if I was never part of their world.
It was four minutes and twenty seven seconds.
One call.
My Mom.
My Dad.
Four minutes and twenty seven seconds of meaningless words that ached for some kind of semblance of the family we once were.
Four minutes and twenty seven seconds of voices I barely recognize anymore.
Four minutes and twenty seven seconds that nearly brought me to my knees and left me in tears for hours.
I hung up.
I didn't move from my spot in front of the picture window.
I watched a duck land on the water. It's feet skidding like tiny landing gear.
I choked back my tears and swallowed the lump in my throat.
I stood there locked in my stance. Staring at water surrounding my perfect house that used to be a home. That used to be OUR home. I reminded myself that I am alone. I am without a wife. Without the future we had planned. Without her family. Without my own.
I am without family. I am alone.
I made myself say it out loud.
You're alone.
I took a deep breathe.
I turned around and walked up the stairs to get a load of laundry.
You're alone.
You're alone.
You're alone.
I repeated with each stair I stepped up.
I walked into my bathroom and these pictures were staring me in the face.
My Dad. My Mom. My big brother.
I haven't always been alone.
I was a daughter. A sister. A sister in law. A daughter in law. A granddaughter. A niece. A cousin. A wife. An Aunt.
I was all of these things at one point. And now I am none of them to anyone.
But it was real once. I was a daughter.
We were a family.
This is my proof of a life that has vanished.
Asked by Anonymous
When they disowned me my mom said "I will always answer the phone when you call, but that's where it ends".
They said, "if you choose this path, there will be no room for you in our life or our family, but we will always love you".
Over the years I have realized there's an ebb and flow to it for me. Sometimes I think,
well I'm not going to let them just let me disappear, I won't make it easy for them
And I'll call and write more often thinking they'll remember why they loved me…or something…I'm not sure what. But then the rejection gets to be too much. Too constant. Too tangible ( I swear some days I can feel it in the air).
Their conviction is unwavering. It always has been.
They are strong, educated, wonderful people. They just happen to be so deeply rooted in their faith that they see me as a "lifestyle choice" and not their daughter.
They don't reach out to me in ANY way, so I think this makes them feel like a phone call answered three times a year isn't doing any harm.
Calling my Mom to tell her my wife had left me was a strange shift for the already non-existent relationship with them.
It's as if now they are even more hurt. Now I'm "choosing this path" of being gay for no reason. I'm single. I'm alone. I'm lonely even. And for what?
One could hope that me being single and STILL being gay would help them realize that this is not my choice, but is just ME.
Still, here I am.
I say good morning to photos of parents I'm likely to not see again until one of them has passed away.
This is the reality of what an unhappy ending can look like.
Still, I will never stop calling them. They can be the one's to continue to not answer, and not accept, and not love unconditionally.
I'll always brave the rejection for the slightest chance of acceptance.
Tell me what to do with the leftover sweetness of the life I once knew.
We had been working opposite schedules. Crossing paths. Missing each other. Only having one day off together per week.
She would wake up to love notes on the stove top for her to read before she made her eggs.
I would come home to post notes on doors and walls.
"I Monday miss you" written on a Thursday in her perfect penmanship. Things that only made sense to us.
One summer day we were driving Sauvie Island and we saw these trucks loaded with flowers and it almost made me cry tears stupid joy.
Weeks later I came home from work to an empty house and our opposite schedules, missing my wife, missing our life, and pictures of these trucks were hung all over our house. All. Over.
Natalie was never much for words, but her actions could speak volumes.
I went into our bedroom and she had strung her favorites over the head of the bed on a wire.
There was a note on the bed. I'm sure it said something short and sweet and perfect. I'm sure I have it in box somewhere with other remnants of a life that was happy.
I've been removing traces of her, and us, and our life, and our love.
My walls are lined with empty spaces where smiling faces used to be.
These pictures of the trucks are the last things I've pulled down.
Someone gave me something to hang in their place.
I took them down from over a bed that we got as a wedding gift.
I laid them on a dresser that Natalie built in our first loft in Portland.
I sat them next to a yellow owl that she bought me for Christmas.
That was two weeks ago.
They're still sitting there.
Still reminding me.
Still haunting me.
Still comforting me.
And silently lurking in my bedroom with their sweet reminders of something that I used to call love.
I need a place to leave my leftover longing.
I need a hiding spot for who she is to me.
The girl that took me to the belly of the whale.
I need a box to keep this love in.
I could stash it all under the bed, or the deepest corners of my closet.
Something tells me I wouldn't be able to resist pulling it out of the hiding spots, dumping the contents of she and I out onto the floor and letting the moments sift through my fingers like sugar.
She never gave me flowers, instead she gave me moments.
Mornings and nights woven together by the strum of her guitar strings.
The day we stood in a field of honeycombs while the bees swarmed perfectly around us. Her green eyes flickering in the fall sun.
I would turn us into honey in honor of the bees if I could.

Automatic transmissions have been with us for a long, long time. In fact, the basics can be found in the Model T Ford. At the heart of an automatic transmission are the planetary gearsets. As gears go, planetaries could be considered the most sophisticated. Made up of three elements—a sun gear, ring gear, and planet pinion gears—planetary gear assemblies can provide forward or reverse rotation, a speed increase, constant speed, or a speed reduction (to provide a variety of gear ratios multiple gearsets are used).
In operation, a planetary gearset requires an input (power from the engine), an output (power going out), and a reactor (one of the elements that is held stationary). The gear ratio and the direction of travel depend on which element is performing each function; when none of the elements are held, the transmission is in neutral. To keep the reactors stationary, bands are used to hold the ring gear to the transmission case, clutch plates and one-way roller clutches are used to hold the planetary elements. In the Tin Lizzie, bands were applied mechanically when the driver stepped on a pedal—modern automatic transmissions use hydraulic pressure.
The valvebody is the "brain" of the transmission. It controls shifting by controlling which reactor is applied to what gearset and when. Historically, automatic transmissions used hydraulic pressure from a governor, throttle valve, or vacuum modulator to determine shift points, but today they use computer-controlled electromechanical servos.
While computer controls have improved the performance and efficiency of modern automatic transmissions, without a Transmission Control Unit, or TCU, they're a big, dumb aluminum container full of parts. That means that stuffing one under the floorboards of your custom classic truck has some challenges. But for every problem there is a solution, and in this case it comes from the appropriately named Powertrain Control Solutions.
As the brain trust at PCS explains it, "The primary factor separating the modern electronic automatic transmission from yesterday's hydro-mechanical automatic transmission is the speed and complexity of the logic used for transmission behavior. The hydro-mechanical automatic transmission of yesterday could only make its decisions based on throttle position, engine load, and driveshaft speed. Whereas the TCU can use these inputs as well as torque converter speed, engine speed, wheel speeds, traction control parameters, electronic throttle position, fluid temperature, engine temperature, brake pedal actuation, forward and lateral acceleration, as well as several other parameters. The TCU can also utilize manual shifting operation and provide altered transmission behavior for special conditions (road race, drag race, dynamometer, snow, towing, etc.)." Translated, that means the PCS TCU is definitely OK.
For those looking for a straightforward, easy-to-live-with transmission controller, PCS offers the Simple Shift. Neither a laptop, nor a technician in a lab coat are required to install the Simple Shift and it will completely control shift points, shift firmness, and torque converter lockup. Transmission shift points are adjusted by dials on the end of the control unit and diagnostic capabilities are communicated by flashing LEDs that also indicate what gear the transmission is in and whether or not the torque converter is locked. For those who want more adjustment options, the Simple Shift Tuner is also available. The handheld tuner can remain connected to the Simple Shift or be removed when programming is complete.
Also available from PCS is the TCM-2000. Similar to all their controllers, the TCM-2000 features dual calibrations that allow the driver to pick from two distinctly different transmission operating modes (sport mode, tow-haul mode, etc.), with programmable shift points, shift firmness, and torque converter lockup tailored to each application. Unique to the TCM-2000, it's capable of supporting a wide range of transmissions from GM, Ford, Chrysler, and a variety of imports. A CAN interface (controller area network, which lets multiple computers talk to one another) allows the TCM-2000 to be seamlessly used with CAN-based vehicles or ECUs and also simplifies the connection to a PCS Paddle Shifter or GSM-5000 Gear Select Module.
To put shifting at your fingertips, PCS offers the GSM Push Button Shifter that replaces the shift lever and linkage with a small touch-pad control module and sealed actuator. Thanks to its design the GSM control module can be surface or flush-mounted and is small enough to fit in consoles, dashes, door panels, or even armrests. Each button is recessed to avoid inadvertent touches and brightly backlit for darker environments. An easy-to-read display shows you what gear you're in. Standard control modules utilize a PRND configuration along with plus and minus buttons for shifting up or down.
Another unique shifting option is the PCS Paddle Shifter. Designed to provide the look and feel of an OEM system, it will bring out the Ferrari F-1 driver in anyone—it's that cool. Easily installing behind any aftermarket 5-, 6-, or 9-bolt steering wheel, the Paddle Shifter communicates with the transmission control unit via a wireless receiver module that plugs into the PCS transmission control units wiring harness.

Soulfly Guitarist Speaks On New Album
In a recent interview with MetalAssault.com, Soulfly guitarist Marc Rizzo discussed the bands forthcoming seventh studio album, "Omen" and how writing the record was different from previous albums. An excerpt from the interview reads as follows:
Julia: (New Soulfly album) Omen is scheduled for release on May 25th. What really stands out about this album for you?
Marc: "It's right to the point. There's a real hardcore, punk vibe to the record. Short tunes. This record is kind of different for us and I think the fans are going to like it a lot."
Julia: When you were writing the album did you have it in mind that you wanted short songs, or was that more of an unplanned thing? Did you go into it with specific musical goals in mind?
Marc: "I think Max's goal was to put out a record that seemed a little more to-the-point, a real thrash metal or hardcore vibe. I know he definitely wanted to go in that direction when we started making the record, so I guess in the end it turned out to be like that."

Making Alarm Sales Without Using Fear
Old sales tactics damage our industry's reputation (and leave money on the table)
There are always those who play the fear card when it comes to generating residential alarm system sales. Recently, one alarm sales story made the news, and judging from the coverage, it elicited significant negative public reaction to the alarm industry.
The story was about a big alarm company that canvassed a neighborhood with marketing flyers. The unfortunate part of the story is that those flyers were distributed immediately after a tragic home invasion had occurred in that neighborhood, a home invasion that ended with the murder of three family members.
Apparently, the alarm company's marketing actions made the local news, and we as an industry were faced with an egg on our face that doesn't wash off easily. And while that egg doesn't wash off easily, we still have to wash our faces of such actions. I am of the firm opinion that as an industry, we can and should do a better job of marketing ourselves to reclaim the much deserved and hard earned public respect we seem to have lost in many ways.
Let's face it, the media has not shown our industry in a very positive light in recent years. What does the public hear? They hear about false alarms and police non-response. They learn of unscrupulous alarm dealers providing atrocious service and leaving the homeowner no recourse. Sometimes the news stories tell of excessive delays responding to actual break-ins, and now the poor judgment of one major company which pounced on the neighbors of a brutal triple-murder home invasion. And when these kinds of stories come up, the media is happy to shine their spotlight on the industry. Sadly, these stories blot out the stories of the lives and property we save every day. Sometimes I wonder if we aren't our own worst enemy!
What's clear is that, still today, many people working in our industry believe fear sells, and perhaps they are correct to some buyers. Many people also believe alarm sales are pain sales. Again, maybe this is the case when it comes to the old routine sales approach.
In the "old daysâ€, some personal injury lawyers were known as "ambulance chasers†because of the way they pursued new clients. I happen to know a number of alarm owners who did a similar thing in years past; they had police scanners in their cars. They sold a ton of systems that way, but in the process also left a ton of money on the table because they were not taking advantage of selling real value.
Motivations Other Than Fear
Let's talk about motivations. Fear and pain are negatives. Comfort, peace of mind, information, control, safety and relationships are positives. The companies with a local presence have a significant advantage today; that's a positive. The advantage is that your employees and your managers all live and work right here in the neighborhood. Your kids go to the same schools and your family shops at the same stores. In other words, your neighborhood is also your client's neighborhood. The question is, do you make the intentional effort to create sales from this perspective, and do you creatively mentor your employees to do the same? Are your sales people willing to cold call and knock on doors to simply introduce themselves as a neighbor who happens to be a security professional?
Do you motivate your employees to do the same when they go to the local drug store or dry cleaners? I'll bet that very few of the folks your sales people and employees regularly patronize have any idea what they do for a living and how they can be instrumental in helping these people not only secure their homes, but also provide a host of additional "added value†services that can enrich their lives and provide true peace of mind. The last time I checked, many of the pharmacists, dry cleaners, retail store employees, gas station owners, and just about everyone else you do business with on a daily basis have homes in your area. Every time you and your employees do business with them is creates a wide open door to at least speaking with these people about the services your firm provides. Do your people do this? If so, then you're on the right track. If not, then think about how you can sell your team on the idea of building business this way.

Illinois Announces Games with VirginiaCHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) - The University of Illinois has added games against Virginia to its 2021 and '22 football schedules.
Illinois said in a news release Wednesday that it will play the Cavaliers on the road on Sept. 11, 2021, and in Champaign on Sept. 10, 2022.
Illinois Athletic Director Mike Thomas said the games are part of an initiative by the Illini to face what he called peer institutions.
Illinois and another Atlantic Coast Conference school, North Carolina, announced earlier this year that they'll play in 2015 and 2016.
Illinois has beaten Virginia in both of the teams' previous meetings. The Illini won the 1990 Florida Citrus Bowl 31-21 and beat the Cavaliers 63-21 in the 1999 MiconPC.com Bowl in Miami.

1812: War and the Passions of Patriotism by Nicole Eustace
This cultural history of the War of 1812 tells the story of how an expensive and unproductive military campaign captured the heart and imagination of a young nation. The author explores how the war that inspired the creation of "The Star-Spangled Banner" laid the groundwork for our country's intense patriotism.

The Society of Municipal Arborists (SMA) has chosen the Kentucky coffeetree (Gymnocladus dioicus) as its Urban Tree of the Year. The tree was selected for its ability to adapt to a variety of harsh urban conditions and its strong ornamental traits.
According to Ithaca, N.Y.-based Cornell Urban Horticulture Institute director Nina Bassuk, the tree "is easy to transplant and takes off fast. KCT has no problem with alkaline soils. Did I mention the wonderful yellow fall color?"
Eric Berg, community forestry coordinator for the Kansas Forest Service, says the tree is one of his long-time favorites. "It has no serious insect or disease problems, holds up well under severe weather conditions, and it typically requires little corrective pruning for most landscape purposes," he said.

Bear's Den is a fabulous private lakefront cottage on Toddy Pond. Gran Den is located close by. It was built as the original summer residence.
The property for this private home was originally purchased over 100 years ago by a Manhattan schoolteacher so his family could make the journey up from New York City and spend summers here. He first rowed the entire lake searching for the ideal spot and set his sights here – with stunning elevated sunsets, starry nights, massive boulders left from glaciation and an accessible kid friendly waterfront and swimming area. Six generations of family have since been coming here to enjoy all that nature offers in the coastal Maine woods.
Enjoy the exquisite sunsets from the large wrap-around deck with porch. Bear's Den is beautifully appointed with a fully equipped kitchen and lots of windows throughout.
Play tennis on the private court, shoot some hoops or relax and enjoy the quiet on the large dock. The waterfront is perfect for children and fishing and offers a fun floating raft off shore.
Located near Mt. Desert Island, Blue Hill, Deer Island, Castine and Acadia National Park.
Enjoy the gorgeous views, be minutes away from the ocean and spend time right on top of the lake!

School teacher scolded for not getting with the iPad agenda
Teachers have been told to get technologically down with the kids to improve education.
Speaking at the Transforming Education Summit in Abu Dhabi yesterday, Abdullatif Al Shamsi, managing director of the UAE's Institute for Applied Technology, said: "Children in some schools feel they are more clever than teachers in using some of the latest technologies.
"Kids have iPods, computer video games, iPhones and other gadgets. Teachers need to be equipped with knowledge in new technology." 'Educators must be more tech-savy', say the experts speaking in Abu Dhabi this week
He noted that children get excited by digital equipment, such as iPads, and this should be considered when teaching youngsters how to use computers and other technology that will help them after they finish school. Al Shamsi said new technology should be used to make students more creative.
And Former French Minister for National Education and Higher Education and Research, Gilles de Robien, who was also among the panelists at the summit, urged schools and administrators to engage teachers and parents in all programmes and policymaking in schools to enhance students' performance.
Dr Raffic Makki, executive director of the Office of Planning and Strategic Affairs and head of Higher Education Sector at Abu Dhabi Education Council (ADEC), added: "We started town-hall programmes in Abu Dhabi where parents, teachers and school administrators meet and discuss performance of students and the success of schools."
The three-day summit, which ended yesterday, was organised by ADEC and attracted scores of experts in education, academicians, politicians and business leaders who have been hosted at the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi.
