Too Much Not Enough
Mom and I engaged some banter regarding my health as our doctor told her some things I had not. I wasn't happy my doctor told her about my own health yet she tells me stuff about my parents as mom hides some things too. She said I was keeping things from her and I replied not really, she has alot to deal with dad and now herself and I did not want them worrying about me too. I told it wasn't like I was going to drop dead tomorrow. She replied she certainly hoped not cuz she still needs me. How nice!!??!! Her use of words are often fruedian. It would have been better had she used the the words 'she still wants me around. Whatever I am glad at least I am needed which is better than worthless.
I am glad I had therapy today to help cope with this added stress and my depressions. Too many emotions and not enough healing. She helped me to see that all I am feeling is normal. My sewer of emotions has to flow out and get cleaned for me to heal. Some of these emotions are core emotions that I had stuffed way down there. She asked me what was I afraid of in letting them out. I am afraid they will be too much and too overwhelming and what if the rage I know is there becomes violent. She then asked me if I had ever been violent? No then we both laughed cuz I am such a pacifist so I will not go on any murdeous rage. I also said what if it sends me where I was a year ago, being suicidal. She feels that I have come too far for me to regress back that much.
Here are my questions for today. Why does emotional pain hurt so much more than physical pain and why does it take forever to heal?
Fake Jake brought me lunch home. Fake Jake and my daughter have left for the town I was in yesterday. I am glad they are gone. I am listening to music then after I answer my email I am going to take a nap.
Blessings to all

UPDATED: Insiders also confirm that Martin Scorsese's film -- starring Leonardo DiCaprio -- runs a minute shy of three hours, making it the longest movie of the 2013 Christmas season.
Director Martin Scorsese's The Wolf Street of Wall Street has garnered an R rating -- instead of the dreaded NC-17 -- after the filmmaker agreed to trim certain nudity and sex scenes, insiders confirm to The Hollywood Reporter.
Initially, the Classification and Ratings Administration Board indicated that Wolf of Wall Street, starring Leonardo DiCaprio as disgraced Wall Street broker and hedonistic party boy Jordan Belfort, was destined for the more restrictive rating because of abundant, explicit sex (not to mention drugs).
Scorsese and Paramount, which is distributing the movie in North America, had several exchanges with the ratings board in terms of what was needed to secure an R rating, sources say, although it wasn't immediately clear what was edited out.
PHOTOS: The Dirty Dozen: Films that Narrowly Avoided an NC-17
Wolf of Wall Street, fully financed by Red Granite Pictures and costing $100 million-plus to make, is based on Belfort's memoir of the same name. Jonah Hill and Matthew McConaughey also star in the movie, which hits theaters Dec. 25 in hopes of being a major awards player.
Scorsese's latest film had been set to open in theaters Nov. 15, but Paramount was forced to abandon that date when the first cut of the film clocked in well north of three hours. After cuts were made, the studio announced it would open Wolf of Wall Street on Dec. 25. Indications were that the running time had been reduced to 2 hours and 45 minutes, but the final count is 2 hours and 59 minutes, including credits (without credits, it is 2 hours and 53 minutes).
At that length, Wolf of Wall Street has the distinction of being Scorsese's longest film, beating Casino by a minute.
On Monday, Paramount CEO Brad Grey, Scorsese and DiCpario hosted a screening of the film for family and friends in New York City.

Pop Top: 'Dragon Age Origins' offers hours of fun RPG gaming
Published November 30, 2009 5:55 pm
This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2009, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
Grade: B+
Video Game » Fans of role playing games will become engrossed in "Dragon Age Origins" (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC), a sword-and-sorcery epic that's rich with great storytelling and hours of game play. The player takes on the role of a heroic member of the Grey Wardens, a group assigned to protect the land from the evil darkspawn (ugly, evil minions). The game's world (in the PC version reviewed here) is incredibly detailed and full of interesting characters, subplots and side quests. But it's a game that requires a huge time commitment to fully appreciate the density of its story.

Mr. Locke was the first Chinese-American to become governor when Washington state voters elected him in 1996, and he served two terms. Since leaving the governor's mansion in 2005, Mr. Locke has been working with the Seattle law firm of Davis Wright Tremaine LLP as part of its China practice, which has offices in Shanghai.
On its Web page, www.dwt.com, the law firm says it has represented several state-run Chinese companies, including China Eastern Airlines, Shanghai Airlines and China Shipping as well as the Bank of China, BankOne, Boeing Co., Freightliner, Ford Motor Co., General Electric Capital Corp. and Microsoft Corp.
John A. Shaw, who held senior posts at the Defense, State and Commerce departments overseeing export controls and technology transfers from 1992 to 2004, said senators should question nominees about their past fundraising and views on high-technology transfers to nations such as China.
"Commerce has total control over all dual-use technology and if there is a decision to open the commercial floodgates to China, Locke will be able to steamroll any military concerns coming from State and Defense," Mr. Shaw said in an interview.
Meanwhile, President Obama on Tuesday issued a waiver of a 1999 defense export-control law that will allow the transfer of U.S. high-technology goods to China. Mr. Obama stated in a notice to Congress that fine-grain graphite and aircraft composite gear will not "measurably improve [China's] missile and space launch capabilities."
Cabinet troubles
Mr. Locke declined to comment while his nomination is pending. White House spokesman Ben LaBolt said Mr. Locke predominately worked for law clients who were U.S. companies doing business in China and the administration is confident he can avoid any conflicts of interests.
"As governor of the state of Washington and later as an attorney representing U.S. companies, Gary Locke opened markets and created opportunities for American businesses overseas critical experience for any commerce secretary," Mr. LaBolt said.
"We are confident that Governor Locke will be able to continue to advocate on behalf of American businesses and workers while at the same time adhering to the administrations ethics policy," he said.
As for the Clinton-era donations that Mr. Locke received from sources connected to the Chinese influence-peddling investigation, Mr. LaBolt said the nominee had long since refunded the money and was never implicated in any wrongdoing by congressional or Justice Department investigators.
Mr. Locke is Mr. Obama's third choice for commerce secretary. New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, a Democrat, withdrew from consideration after it was revealed that a grand jury is investigating illegal contracting in the state, and Sen. Judd Gregg, New Hampshire Republican, withdrew over policy disputes with the administration.
Mr. Locke is not a registered lobbyist at Davis Wright, but the firm has made millions lobbying for several U.S. companies and also is registered as a foreign lobbyist.

There was before Breathless, and there was after Breathless. With its lack of polish, surplus of attitude, crackling personalities of rising stars Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Seberg, and anything-goes crime narrative, Jean-Luc Godard's debut fashioned a simultaneous homage to and critique of the American film genres that influenced and rocked him as a film writer for Cahiers du cinema. Jazzy, free-form, and sexy, Breathless (A bout de souffle) helped launch the French new wave and ensured cinema would never be the same.
The original trailer exclaims that Breathless is "The best film on the screen today!" Thanks to the Criterion Collection, the tragicomic tale of "the nice man" (Jean-Paul Belmondo) and "the pretty girl" (Jean Seberg) is one of the best films on DVD today. Along with the trailer and a restored high-definition transfer (approved by cinematographer Raoul Coutard), this special edition offers interviews past and present, video essays, an 80-minute documentary, a short subject, and a wealth of reading material. Disc one features interviews recorded for French television between 1960 and 1964. In his first of two appearances, Godard laments that "audiences trust me too much... simply because I made a popular film," and hopes his follow-up, Le Petit Soldat, will flop (he got his wish). Belmondo confirms that the dialogue was written on the spot, while Seberg, who died in 1979, credits Marlon Brando for inspiring her to act. The period conversations conclude with Bob le Flambeur's Jean-Pierre Melville, who describes himself as a "big brother" to the nouvelle vague filmmakers.
On the second disc, Coutard and assistant director Pierre Rissient relive the making of the movie, followed by direct cinema pioneer D.A. Pennebaker dissecting its documentary aspects. In their video essays, Mark Rappaport (From the Journals of Jean Seberg) explores the life of the actress, while writer Jonathan Rosenbaum looks at Breathless as a form of criticism. The digital extras end with 1993's Chambre 12, Hôtel de Suède, Claude Ventura's made-for-TV doc and Godard's playful short Charlotte et son Jules. The 80-page booklet contains an essay from author Dudley Andrew, a selection of Godard statements, and François Truffaut's script treatment accompanied by Godard's adaptation. As Melville states, Breathless was "a film of exceptional charm and grace." The same could be said of this lovingly compiled boxed set. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

2 PPC Tips to Kick-start Your Campaign in 2013 22 Jan 2013
Recommended posts
2012 was a great year for pay per click advertising and it can only go one way in 2013 and that is forward. It is a great idea to give your campaign a head-start in PPC or a 'kick-start' to its year through implementing a few simple and effective tips into your campaign. In PPC, advertisers will rarely have to make any drastic changes to their PPC campaign: the element of improvement is through including tips and tricks into your campaign. Therefore, without further dew, here are two tips you can use to give your PPC campaign a head start in 2013.
A problem many advertisers do (which mostly includes new advertisers) is that they rush into the new year with a half-ready campaign. However, from doing this, you will basically run extremely efficiently because:
Already, I have listed three drawbacks to rushing into PPC. The tendency is that because it is the new year, advertisers will rush to get things up and running fast for the new year. Do not do this. If it takes you a month to create a great PPC campaign, then let it take a month! You will make much more money throughout the whole year from using a month of time to create a great PPC campaign rather than to spend a few days on creating a PPC campaign in order to get it running as soon as possible.
Out of every tip I have ever giving out about pay per click advertising, this has to be, by far, the most useful tip that all PPC advertisers should use. The best way to improve a campaign is by looking at previous statistics first. Although you can already do this within Adwords, you could make a more analytical approach to your statistics through recording them down every month and annotating them. For my website, AskWillOnline.com, I publish my all of my website's statistics as an article each month. As much as it benefits the nosy web users out there, it is more beneficial for me because I can see where Ask Will Online has been performing well this month and where it has been performing badly. I can then look to improve upon the bad areas of my website which has been the bounce rate for a few months now!
From this, I hope it makes clear that when entering January and the new year, do not rush your campaign and make sure that once you have got it up and running, record its statistics and comment about them too. Creating a database of the previous records of your campaign will turn out more useful to you and your campaign than you think.

Acacia honey is a natural product which has proven to have therapeutic effects on skin wound healing, but its potential healing effects in corneal wound healing have not been studied. This study aimed to explore the effects of Acacia honey (AH) on corneal keratocytes morphology, proliferative capacity, cell cycle, gene and protein analyses. Keratocytes from the corneal stroma of six New Zealand white rabbits were isolated and cultured until passage 1. The optimal dose of AH in the basal medium (FD) and medium containing serum (FDS) for keratocytes proliferation was identified using MTT assay. The morphological changes, gene and protein expressions of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), marker for quiescent keratocytes and vimentin, marker for fibroblasts were detected using q-RTPCR and immunocytochemistry respectively. Flowcytometry was performed to evaluate the cell cycle analysis of corneal keratocytes.
Cultured keratocytes supplemented with AH showed no morphological changes compared to control. Keratocytes cultured in FD and FDS media supplemented with 0.025% AH showed optimal proliferative potential compared with FD and FDS media, respectively. Gene expressions of ADLH and vimentin were increased in keratocytes cultured with AH enriched media. All proteins were expressed in keratocytes cultured in all media in accordance to the gene expression findings. No chromosomal changes were detected in keratocytes in AH enriched media.
Corneal keratocytes cultured in media supplemented with 0.025% AH showed an increase in proliferative capacity while retaining their morphology, gene and protein expressions with normal cell cycle. The results of the present study show promising role of AH role in accelerating the initial stage of corneal wound healing.

Winter hair care with HASK
Do you suffer from dull frizzy hair or a much more sensitive scalp especially in winter?
Maybe it's time to change your beauty regimen during the colder months! Here are a few hair care tips:
1.) The colder the air, the lower is the humidity, which means that the moisture in your hair depletes now much quicker. To help replenish moisture, treat your hair once a week to a deep conditioning treatment. Hask Macadamia Oil is super rich in essential fatty acids and can mimic your scalps' natural oils. This means it gets absorbed quickly and the ultra-hydrating properties can take care of your dry and damaged locks.
2.) Colour-treated hair needs extra care in winter! Try a nourishing Hair Oil after you've shampooed your hair. It can be used on wet hair or as shine oil on dry hair. Hask Argan Oil is loaded with vitamins and antioxidants and ready to nurture your strands.
3.) Don't forget to get your hair trimmed! Regular trims every 6-8 weeks can help reduce the chance of dry, splitting ends. After you pampered yourself with an appointment at your hair dresser, share the love and pamper your hair with Monoi Oil! Pure coconut oil infused with gardenias – feels like a short trip to Tahiti!
4.) And last but not least: Nutrition! It is not just about what products you put on your hair. Strong, vibrant and healthy hair also depends on a balanced diet!

After two miscarriages, writer Adam Senft's marriage is on the rocks, and his only satisfaction comes from his bond with his dog, Big Steve. One day, on a walk through local woods rumored to be haunted, man and dog come across a strange sight: a woman performing fellatio on a statue of a satyr-which comes to life and sees them. Soon, all the women in town begin disappearing, summoned to the woods by the satyr's hypnotic piping. When Adam gathers the menfolk to hunt down the satyr and retrieve the women, what they uncover is an unholy evil bent on protecting itself and spreading its seed. Keene displays a fluid command of mythology and has a vivid take on contemporary magic. The conjuring of a blue-collar rural America, one riven with legends and dark crannies, is also superb. The latest from Keene (Dead Sea) grabs the reader immediately and doesn't let go. (Feb.)Copyright 2007 Reed Business Information

Chapter One It was on the first day of spring that Big Steve and I saw Shelly Carpenter giving head to the hairy man.
Winter had been a hard one. Two books to write in five months' time. It's not something I recommend doing, if you can help it. There was a lot of pressure involved. The sales of my first novel, Heart of the Matter, caught my critics, my publisher, and even myself by surprise. It did very well-something a book of its kind isn't supposed to do, especially a midlist, mass-market mystery paperback with no promotional campaign behind it other than a quarter-page advertisement in one lone trade magazine. Publishers don't buy a lot of advertising for midlist authors.
Suffice to say, I beat the odds. Flush with success, I quit my day job-only to learn that I wouldn't be getting a royalty check for at least another year. We'd already blown through the advance: mortgage payments, credit card payments, car and truck payments, new living room furniture for my wife, Tara, and a new laptop for me. Plus, I'd spent quite a bit of my own cash traveling to book signings. Publishers don't pay for midlist book signing tours either.
If I'd had an agent, maybe they would have explained the pay schedule to me. Or then again, maybe they wouldn't have. Personally, I'm glad I don't have an agent. They require fifteen percent of your earnings, and I was broke. Fifteen percent of shit is still shit.
I could have gone back to work part-time at the paper mill in Spring Grove, but I figured that if I applied myself to the writing, I'd be making about as much money as I would at the mill anyway, so I decided to follow what I love doing.
Tara still worked, insisting that she pay the bills while I stayed home and wrote. We needed the health insurance her company provided, but we couldn't survive on just one income. Thus two more books for two different publishers in five months' time, written just for the advance money, which would see us through the winter. Don't get me wrong: It was a nice chunk of change, but when you totaled up the hours I spent writing, the advance for the next two novels came out to about a buck eighty an hour. And to make matters worse, they weren't really stories that I wanted to write. They didn't speak to me. I wasn't passionate about them, and had lost my sense of wonder.
But we needed the money. Some people call that being a hack. I call it necessity.
The pressure got to me. I started smoking again-two packs a day-and drank coffee nonstop. I'd get up at five, make the daily commute from the bed to the coffeepot to the computer, and start writing. I'd work on one novel until noon, take a break for lunch, and then work on the second novel until late evening. After a full day of that I'd take care of business: reading contracts, responding to fan mail, checking my message board, giving interviews-all the other things that constitute writing but don't actually involve putting words on paper-and go to bed around midnight. Then I'd get up the next morning and do it all over again. Seven days a week. The glamorous life of a writer.
During those rough months, I'd have gone insane if not for Big Steve. Tara brought him home from the pound to keep me company during the day. Big Steve was a mixed-breed mutt-part beagle, part rottweiler, part black Lab, and one hundred percent pussy. Despite his formidable size and bark, Big Steve was scared of his own shadow. He ran from butterflies and squirrels, fled from birds and wind-tossed leaves, and cowered when the mailwoman came to the door. When Tara first brought him home, he hid in the corner of the kitchen for half a day, shaking, with his tail between his legs. He warmed up to us fairly quickly, but he was still frightened by anything else. Not that he let it show. When something-it didn't matter what, a groundhog or Seth Ferguson, the kid from across the street-stepped onto our property, the rottweiler inside him came out. He was all bark and no bite, but a robber would have had a hard time believing that.
Big Steve became my best friend. He listened while I read manuscript pages out loud to him. He'd lie on the couch and watch television with me when I took a break from writing. We liked the same beer, and the same food (because dog food just didn't do it for Big Steve; he preferred a nice, juicy steak or some cheese-dripping pizza). Most important, Big Steve knew when it was time to drag my ass away from the computer. That was how we started our daily walks, and now they were a scheduled routine. Two per day-one at dawn, shortly after Tara left for work, and the second at sundown, before I started making dinner, when she was on her way home. Tara commuted to Baltimore every day, and it was at those times-when she first left and when she was due home-that the house seemed especially lonely. Big Steve had impeccable timing. He'd get me outside, and that always cheered me up.
Which brings us back to Shelly Carpenter and the hairy man.
When Tara left for work that Monday, the first day of spring, Big Steve stood at the door and barked: once-short and to the point.
Behold, I stand at the door and bark; therefore I need to pee.
"You ready to go outside?" I asked.
He thumped his tail in affirmation, and his ears perked up. His big, brown eyes shone with excitement. It didn't take much to make Big Steve happy.
I clipped his leash to his collar (despite his fear of anything that moves, there is enough beagle in Big Steve to inspire a love of running off into the woods with his nose to the ground, and not coming home until after dark). We stepped outside. The sun was shining, and it felt good on my face. It was unseasonably warm, almost like summer. Tara and I had planted a lilac bush the year before, and the flowers bloomed, their scent fragrant and sweet. Birds chirped and sang to one another in the big oak tree in our backyard. A squirrel ran along the roof of my garage, chattering at Big Steve. The dog shrank away from it.
The long, cold winter had come and gone, and somehow I'd made it through and finished both manuscripts, Cold as Ice and When the Rain Comes. Now I could finally focus on the novel that I wanted to write, something other than a midlist mystery. Something big, with enough crossover potential to really get me noticed, maybe a novel about the Civil War. I felt good. Better than I had in months. The weather probably had something to do with that. Now it was spring, the season of rebirth and renewal and all that jazz. The time when nature lets the animal kingdom know that it's time to make lots of babies. Spring, the season of sex and happiness. The rutting season.
Big Steve celebrated the first day of spring by pissing on the lilac bush, pissing on the garage, pissing on the sidewalk, and pissing twice on the big oak tree-which further infuriated the squirrel. The tree limbs shook as it expressed its displeasure. Big Steve barked at his aggressor, but only after he was safely behind me.
Our house is sandwiched between Main Street and a narrow back alley separating us from the community Fire Hall. The Fire Hall borders a grassy vacant lot and a neighborhood park, the kind with swings and monkey bars and deep piles of mulch to keep kids from skinning their knees when they come down the sliding boards. Beyond the playground lies the forest-roughly thirty square miles of protected Pennsylvanian woodland, zoned to prevent farmers and Realtors from cutting it all down and planting crops or building subdivisions. The forest is surrounded on all sides by our town, and the towns of Seven Valleys, New Freedom, Spring Grove, and New Salem. They all have video stores and grocery outlets and pizza shops (and our town even has a Wal-Mart), but you wouldn't know it while standing inside the forest. Stepping through that tree line was like traveling through time to a Pennsylvania where the Susquehanna Indians still roamed free and the Germans, Quakers, and Amish were yet to come. At the center, at the dark heart of the forest, was LeHorn's Hollow, source of central Pennsylvanian ghost stories and legends. Every region has such a place, and LeHorn's Hollow was ours.
An artist friend of mine once visited us from California. Tara and I took him for a walk through those same woods, maybe half a mile inside, and he said something that has always stuck with me. He said that our woods felt different. I'd scoffed at the time, reminding him that his own state had the majestic redwood forests (Tara and I had spent part of our honeymoon walking amongst the coastal redwoods, and I'd wanted to live there ever since). But he'd insisted that our small patch of forest was different.
He said it felt primordial.
After Big Steve finished watering the yard, he tugged me toward the alley, his ears perked up and tongue lolling in hopeful anticipation.
"You want to go for a walk in the woods? You want to sniff for some bunnies?"
He wagged his tail with enthusiastic confirmation and tilted his head to the side.
"Come on, then." I grinned. His mood was infectious. It was impossible to feel anything other than good that morning.
He put his nose to the ground and led me forward. Shelly Carpenter jogged by on her regular morning run just as we reached the edge of the alley. Her red hair jiggled with each step. So did the rest of her. I didn't know Shelly well, but we usually made small talk every morning as we passed by each other.
"Hey, Adam," she panted, running in place. "Hi, Stevie!"
Big Steve wagged the tip of his tail and darted between my legs.
"Oh, come on, Stevie." She turned off her iPod and removed her headphones. "Don't be shy! You know me."
Big Steve's tail thumped harder, confirming that yes, he did indeed know her, but he shrank away further.
Shelly laughed. "God, he's such a fraidy-cat."
"Yeah, he is. Runs from his own shadow. We got him from the pound, and we think that his previous owner may have beaten him or something."
Her brow creased. "That's so sad. What's wrong with some people?"
I nodded. "Yeah, people like that should be shot. You out for your morning jog?"
"You know it. Isn't it beautiful today?"
"It sure is. Spring is finally here."
She looked up at the sun and squinted. "Spring is my favorite time of year."
Her thin T-shirt was damp with sweat, and it clung to her bouncing breasts, revealing perfection. Her pert, dime-sized nipples strained against the fabric, hinting at the dark areolas beneath. Before she could catch me leering, I looked down. Big mistake. Her gray sweatpants had ridden up, hugging her crotch like a second skin. They too were wet with perspiration.
I quickly glanced back up. Shelly was staring at me with an odd expression.
"You okay, Adam?" She arched her eyebrows.
I cleared my throat. "Yeah. Sure. I was just thinking about my deadline."
"Seems like you're always daydreaming."
"That's the way it is with writers."
"How's the next book coming?"
"Good." I smiled and bent down to pet Big Steve. Mistake number two. My face was inches from her groin. I imagined that I could smell her sweat-and something else. Something intoxicating. The scent of a woman.
What the hell was wrong with me? It was like spring fever had turned me into a horn dog or something. My reactions were uncharacteristic, and I felt embarrassed.
Shelly placed a hand on her hip and arched her back. "What's it going to be?"
I jumped. "W-what?"
"The book." Her breasts bounced up and down as she began jogging in place again. "What's it going to be about? Another mystery?"
"I'm not sure yet, actually. Maybe a Civil War novel, but I don't know. Still working it out in my head. Whatever it turns out to be, it's going to be big."
"Big is good." She licked her lips. Her glistening tongue looked so inviting.
I found myself wondering if she was aware that she was doing it. Her eyes seemed to glaze over, and she moved closer to me. Big Steve shifted nervously between my legs.
I cleared my throat again, breaking the spell.
"Well," Shelly said, "I'd better let you get back to work, then. See you. Tell Tara that I said hi."
"Okay. Will do. See you later."
Shelly put her headphones back on, raised her hand and waved, and then blew Big Steve a kiss. We stared after her as she jogged down the alley and crossed over into the park. I watched her perfect ass moving beneath her sweatpants. Then she vanished from sight. The next time I saw that ass was when she was on her knees in front of the hairy man.
Big Steve panted heavily, then turned around and licked his balls.
I knew how he felt. My own erection strained uncomfortably against my jeans. Shuffling from one foot to another, I made sure nobody was watching. Then I reached down inside my pants and readjusted.
I took a deep breath, trying to stave off the guilt that welled up inside me. I'd never cheated on Tara, but the opportunities were there. The bigger my career got, the more of them there seemed to be. Not dozens of them, at least not yet. But there were several women who'd brought bourbon and crotchless panties to my book signings, or asked me to sign their breasts with Magic Marker. They sent me e-mails telling me how much my writing turned them on. Genre groupies. It was flattering and tempting and great for selling books. But it was surprising too, especially considering my modest success. I often wondered if it would get worse the bigger I got.
The thing I was most afraid of was myself-my own libido. Tara's moratorium on sex affected me more than I let on. Yes, I loved her, but it was also a huge factor in our lives. I worried sometimes about cheating on her, was afraid that one day my traitorous libido would push me into it.
But I'd never done anything. And my erotic overreaction to Shelly's workout attire left me feeling puzzled and guilty, as did her uncharacteristic flirting-if that was what it was. Had she really flirted, or was it my imagination?
I was pretty sure I'd read the situation correctly.
At the time I dismissed it all. Just something in the air. Spring fever, maybe.
But now I know just how right I was. There was something in the air-music and magic-and it affected us both.
Big Steve strained against his leash, urging me forward. We crossed the alley and walked into the field, heading in the same general direction that Shelly had gone. The grass was wet with dew. Steve put his nose to the ground, catching a scent. He started tracking.
In the oak tree's branches two squirrels began humping away, celebrating the season by making babies.
I wondered if Tara and I would ever have a baby. Then I thought of the last miscarriage. Sadness welled up inside me, and I fought back sudden and surprising tears.
Steve tugged at the leash, chasing the bad memories away like the good dog that he was.
We walked on. The wet grass soaked my shoes and his paws. I took us around the playground. It wouldn't do to have the neighborhood children come flying down the slide and land in a pile of dog shit. As if reading my mind, Big Steve dutifully dropped a pile in the grass. Wincing at the smell, I turned my nose away. The dog wagged his tail, and it seemed like he was grinning. Then we moved along.
The neighborhood came to life around us. Paul Legerski's black Chevy Suburban roared down the alley, with Flotsam and Jetsam's "Liquid Noose" blasting from the speakers. An oldie but a goodie. Paul had the bass turned up loud, just like the high school kids who did the same thing with their hip-hop. He blew the horn and waved, and I waved back. Paul and his wife, Shannon, were good people. One of my next-door neighbors, Merle, tried to start his lawn mower. It sputtered, stalled, and then sputtered again. Merle's curses were loud and clear, and I chuckled. Then I heard the hiss of running water as another of my neighbors, Dale Haubner, a retiree, turned on his garden hose. A flock of geese flew overhead, honking out their springtime return from Southern climates. Honeybees buzzed in the clover growing next to the seesaw.
But beneath all of these familiar noises was another sound. At first I thought I'd imagined it. But Big Steve's ears were up and his head cocked. He'd heard it too.
As we stood there it came again-a high, melodic piping. It sounded like a flute. Just a few short, random notes, and then they faded away on the breeze and weren't repeated. I looked around to see if Shelly had heard it, but she was gone, as if the woods had swallowed her up.
In a way, I guess that was what happened.
The musical piping drifted toward us again, faint but clear. I became aroused again, and dimly wondered why. Shelly was gone, and there was nobody else in sight. I hadn't been thinking about sex. It was weird.

Nobody's Impressing Voters Right Now, but Republicans Facing Most Blame
As the debt ceiling negotiations get scrappier, a new poll shows that a majority of voters approve of the way Obama is handling the economy, and that more will blame Republicans than the president if a deal doesn't happen.
In a Quinnipiac poll released on Thursday, nearly half of voters said they'd pin the blame on Republicans if the debt limit does not get raised, while a third would blame Obama. Sen. Mitch McConnell predicted as much on The Laura Ingraham Show on Wednesday, which has prompted him to call for allowing Obama to raise the ceiling unilaterally.
"I'm not going to allow him to push us into making a bad deal," the Senate Minority leader said. "The reason default is no better idea today than when Newt Gingrich tried it in 1995 is it destroys your brand, and would give the president an opportunity to blame Republicans for a bad economy."
Overall, though, voters are torn on Obama's performance. They're split 47-46 on whether they approve of the job he's doing. Just 26 percent approve of Republicans' prefomrance in Congress, a slight decline from the approval that generally hangs around 30 percent. Democrats in Congress don't fare much better – just 28 percent approve of their work.
And it's not just American political culture that's not inspiring much enthusiasm. Just 3 percent said they were "very satisfied" with the current state of affairs in America. 64 percent – nearly two-thirds of voters – said they were somewhat or very unsatisfied.

I have asked a question about how to retrieve data from different tables in sql How to get data from 4 tables in 1 sql query?
When I run the query for my sample data I get 3 rows, anyway being many-to-many relationship between courses and categories I will always get more rows for same course.
My question is how do I handle this data in PHP? I get an array and what I want would be something like:
Array (
[0] => stdClass Object (
[name] => course name
[tutor] => tutor name
[categories] => Array ( categories here )
Should I just fetch the data from the categories in a foreach loop after I fetch a course? That would mean bad performance for large amount of data.

Erosion Reveals Cist Burial in Scottish Cliff
Friday, April 04, 2014
SANNOX, SCOTLAND—A Bronze Age cist burial was rescued from an eroding cliff face on the Isle of Arran. "All the bone was uniformly white and in a similar condition, which is evidence for a hot cremation pyre," excavation leader Iraia Arabaolaza explained to Culture 24. Some of the bones may have been lost to erosion, or not included in the burial. A green stain indicates that a copper artifact may have originally been part of the burial. A sharp knife made of Yorkshire flint was recovered, along with a cracked food pot that may have been fired when the body was cremated.

Teachers at Arroyo High School are seeing how years of integrating growth mindset messages into every class have changed student attitudes about learning.
Imagine for a moment you cannot swim, or maybe you don't have to imagine it because you really can't swim. Or perhaps you can swim just well enough for a few minutes not to drown. Or maybe your swimming is adequate, but it requires every cell in your body, and when you are done, you can barely move. Now imagine that every single morning someone takes you to a pool and pushes you in.
If this advice doesn't make you a little scared or depressed, you might not have read carefully enough.
In the world of technology, we are being introduced to new terms every now and then. Gone are the days when the students were taught with traditional techniques. Now, teachers have the opportunity to bring something new and exciting into their classrooms. A recent trend that has taken control of classrooms and has become the new favorite of the teachers is to flip their classrooms and expand their teaching lessons beyond. If you are a teacher and looking at ways to take your class on to next level, flipping is the trend you might end up liking.

Teachers who promote reflective classrooms ensure that students are fully engaged in the process of making meaning. They organize instruction so that students are the producers, not just the consumers, of knowledge. To best guide children in the habits of reflection, these teachers approach their role as that of "facilitator of meaning making."
In the role of facilitator, the teacher acts as an intermediary between the learner and the learning, guiding each student to approach the learning activity in a strategic way. The teacher helps each student monitor individual progress, construct meaning from the content learned and from the process of learning it, and apply the learnings to other contexts and settings. Learning becomes a continual process of engaging the mind that transforms the mind.

One chemistry teacher describes how, through incremental learning goals, formative assessments, and differentiation, she inspires her students to work harder and recognize their potential.
She sounded like a banshee with a stubbed toe. The wail from the cubicle across from mine, as I sat down to try to write this blog post on a layover in Minneapolis, is worse than any caterwauling I've ever heard before.

It's no secret that many Americans are lousy writers. Just ask any college professor or employer, including those at prestigious institutions. With the advent of e-mail, writing ability has become more important than ever, and writing deficiencies have become increasingly apparent.

An inquiry-based curriculum requires both planning and flexibility, as well as a teacher knowing the students well enough to anticipate their interests and limits.
We need to encourage children to love and read books if we're to improve literacy levels, says teacher Nancie Atwell
Students want to be good at things because it is fun being good at things. In other words, they are motivated by being good at, or mastering, things.
I recently read an article that suggested that children are not learning disabled until they attend school and fail to adequately learn to read and write. The author referred to this as "school-induced learning disabilities." The article went on to suggest that if those same kids were simply taught the way they learned, they would not only not need special education services, but they would not need a label of "learning disabled," or as in most cases of learning disabilities, dyslexia.

I find my flexibility as a teacher is both challenged and validated when I group students for instruction. When I think about the wide range of needs in my classroom and then about the wide range of levels, it feels nearly impossible to do all the teaching that needs to be done. When I group students by level, within each leveled group are many different needs. Just because students' reading levels are the same, their needs aren't necessarily aligned. Students may read independently at the same level -- yet some may need support at predicting, while others need support with determining the meaning of unknown words. Still others may struggle with engagement.

Symmetrical congenital circumferential skin creases are a rare feature described in only a few conditions. We report a case of a 29-month-old boy with symmetrical circumferential skin creases on arms, legs, and digits, and other features reminiscent of the single case reported by Cohen et al. [1993: Clin Dysmorphol 2:39–46] and reviewed by Elliott et al. [1996: Am J Med Genet 62:23–25]. The key features also include epicanthic folds, microphthalmia, microcornea, microcephaly, small, low-set posteriorly angulated ears with thick overfolded helices, cleft palate, and moderate–severe psychomotor developmental delay. © 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
