Hope you like horses and the outdoors. I like hunting and I do that on my small place here in Texas. I have running quarter horse broodmare that is in foal for a March baby LQH so it can race in the La. bred races. I have Eli, my Plott hound that likes to play a game called 'bite'. Don't play, he cheats! I'm retired and would like to do small travel to perfect places. One of those is Yellowstone. I've been there but I can't get enough. Would go twice a year if I could. I am fearful of a few things but ALL my friends know what I am afraid of....S h a r k s! My only real stain the britches fear. I like horsepacking in the mountains but getting where I like to use a car or 4 wheeler more. Still some places you can't see except by foot (that's out) or horse. Yeah! I'm a Christian, but I am not a very good one. Wicked and few have been the days of my life...was that Jacob that said that? I am looking for longterm but I put 'any'. I would be open to talk with anyone and we all have ways we know if we want to go to another level. In a hurry while writing this and we all know it won't get edited cuz we just don't take the time to go back, do we?! I like movies and if you have kids, that's great. Put's the noise factor back in the house. lol I love country rides and I really like Christmas lights. No one wants to go anymore. I'm very comfy in my environment and adapt well to others. I like to try new things even if I know I won't make a habit of them. Sushi is ok, but it ain't venison or beef. I love the western channel and also whodunits that we can figure out on our own. I am super smart but I'm not highly intelligent. I can explain this if you need it. Yep, I cried at Ole Yeller and Where the Red Fern Grows. If that is not manly enough for you. You won't like me. I'm sentimental over my MOM's things that She left and hold dear to my PaPa's ice cream bowl. I'm human...not perfect...I let GOD down but I try not to make it a practice. Everything I have is His...I just have it borrowed. Wanna know more then let's talk. GOD Bless, CW

Player's Sideline Goal: Help Kids
New York Jets wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery grew up in one of the poorest neighborhoods in Birmingham, Ala., watching friend after friend drop out of school and end up done with their lives before they ever really got started.
Now that he and his wife have a home in New Jersey—where the Jets play and practice—Mr. Cotchery set a goal for himself to keep as many kids in the area from following the same path.
In addition to visiting nearby middle schools every week to mentor nearly 100 children, Mr. Cotchery and his wife are hosting a third-annual party Monday night at Hudson Terrace to benefit his Cotchery Foundation. The event, which starts with an auction and is followed by dinner and a poker tournament, is sponsored by Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley Smith Barney and Wells Fargo Advisors, among others.
Ticket packages range from $200 to $5,000 and include more than just the typical charity throw-ins like product placement at the venue and a mention on the group's website. Paying attendees can play cards with other Jets players and take home signed team memorabilia. The foundation expects to raise more than $100,000 for underprivileged youth, Mr. Cotchery says, an uptick from the first two years the event was held.
"Kids, especially the ones in bad areas, need to know that there are a lot of people who want to help them," he says. He had strong family support growing up but whenever he left his house, "I felt alone. It shouldn't be like that."
Growing up. Mr. Cotchery says, nobody showed him and his friends how to stay out of trouble. He joined a gang and says football was the main reason he was able to get out. To keep kids from making the same mistakes, he goes to schools a few times a week during the NFL off-season to talk about how to ignore everyday distractions. And even during the season, when players usually get a maximum of two days off a week, he still makes it out at least a few times a month.
The visits are part of the RESH-180 program—which stands for Raising Expectations, Standards and Honor, with the "180" representing a 180-degree turnaround in the kids' lives. But he says he tries not to preach. "I just call it life skills," Mr. Cotchery says. "I want them to get thinking about their future."

Released: Nov 01st, 1990
Running Time: 52
Director: Steven Mitchell
Company: Dungeon Video
Cast: Scott Baker, Tanya (I), Mistress Ilsa
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Specialty
This is one of those bondage tapes that you'll either love or else you just won't get it at all. It consists of two scenes of Mistress Ilsa smacking guys around. First, there's her love, whom Ilsa thinks has wrongfully bopped a fellow slave. This guy gets spanked and generally humiliated for awhile. Then in comes slave Scott Baker who plays "IRS agent" and promptly gets his share of degradation and mild corporal punishment. There's no nudity at all so if light B & D isn't your bag, there's nothing for you. If you do get turned on by this sort of thing, go for it.

Exact Sciences ( EXAS)
Diagnostic/indication: Cologuard to detect colon cancer and pre-cancerous polyps in the colon. (phase III trial)
Top-line results expected in the fourth quarter.
Cologuard is a non-invasive test designed to measure genetic abnormalities in stool that detects early-stage colon cancer and pre-cancerous polyps. Currently available colon cancer screening test can't reliably detect cancer at early stages, which means patients at risk must undergo expensive and invasive colonoscopies. Cologuard won't replace colonoscopies but could cut down on the number of the invasive tests performed.
The phase III "Deep-C" study is designed to prospectively validate the sensitivity and specificity of Cologuard compared to colonoscopy. If positive, Exact Sciences will seek FDA approval in the first quarter of next year.
Geron ( GERN)
Drug/indication: Imetelstat in non-small cell lung cancer (phase II trial)
Top-line results expected in the fourth quarter Geron ( GERN) took a beating late last year when it gave up on its embryonic stem cell therapy. Now, the company is focusing its drug development activities on its cancer therapeutics, many of which pre-date its stem-cell research. Geron will help its turnaround efforts a great deal if it can manage to produce a win from a phase II lung cancer study of imetelstat.
The study compares imetelstat to standard of care as maintenance therapy in non-small cell lung cancer patients who responded to previous chemotherapy. The primary endpoint is improvement in progression-free survival.
Lexicon Pharmaceuticals ( LXRX)
Drug/indication: LX4211 in Type 2 diabetes (phase II trial)
Top line results expected by the end of the second quarter
The phase II study compares LX4211 plus metformin to metformin alone in type 2 diabetes patients with inadequate blood sugar control. The study's primary endpoint will measure the change in HbA1c, or blood glucose levels from baseline to week 12.
Nektar Therapeutics ( NKTR)
Drug/indication: NKTR-118 for opioid-induced constipation (phase III trials)
Top-line results expected in the fourth quarter
Nektar's partner Astrazeneca ( AZN) is conducting the "KODIAC" trials, consisting of two phase III placebo-controlled efficacy and an open-label, placebo-controlled long-term safety study. The studies are designed to determine the efficacy and safety of NKTR-118, a once-daily tablet, for the treatment of constipation in patients taking prescription opioid medications.
Vical ( VICL)
Drug/indication: Allovectin in melanoma (phase III trial)
Top-line results expected in the fourth quarter
The phase III study compares Allovectin (injected directly into melanoma lesions) to dacarbazine or temozolomide in patients with recurrent metastatic melanoma. The primary endpoint of the study is durable response rate at 24 weeks but the more important and necessary (for approval) secondary endpoint is overall survival.

Shopping at Amazon? There are lots of great ways to save!
Amazon offers a price matching policy on cell phones and televisions sold through their site. Under Amazon's Price Matching Policy, if you find an identical item being sold on a competitor's site (see Amazon's Price Matching Policy page for the official list of qualifying competitors) within 14 days of the item's ship date, Amazon will refund you the difference.
While Amazon's Price Protection Policy isn't spelled out on their website, they will refund you the difference if the price of an item that you have purchased drops within 7 days of receiving the item. If this happens, you will have to contact Amazon's Customer Service department for the refund. Be advised that Amazon's Price Protection Policy is only valid on items sold and shipped through Amazon and does not apply to third party sellers.
Amazon has its own coupon section where you will find discounts for virtually every category on the site. These coupons are also listed on the homepage of their corresponding section. So whether you're shopping for kitchen appliances or office supplies, be sure to check out the category page for any available coupons and special offers that can be applied to your purchase.
Using the "Subscription Delivery" option on products you use all the time is another great way to save money at Amazon.

About Amazon
Amazon is the largest Internet-based retailer in the United States. Founded in 1994 by Jeff Bezos, Amazon was originally named "Cadabra" - and made its online debut in 1995. Amazon began as an online bookstore and within its first two months in business, had made sells in all fifty states and 45 countries around the world. (In case you're wondering, the first book ever sold on Amazon.com was Fluid Concepts and Creative Analogies by Douglas Hofstadte.) Amazon has since expanded its product line to include electronics, appliances, household goods, apparel and more.
Amazon.com has come a long way from their early days when employees would ring a bell inside the building to celebrate making a sale. Today, Amazon's boasts nearly 120,000 employees and enough warehouse floor space to equal 700 Madison Square Gardens. Because of the tremendous amount of warehouse space there is to cover, Amazon now uses robots – in addition to their traditional staff - for retrieving items during the packing and processing of orders.
In addition to being just an online retailer, Amazon also develops and markets its own brand of products – like the Amazon Kindle readers – and is also a well-known provider of cloud computing solutions. Amazon's headquarters are based in Seattle, Washington with separate retail websites for the UK, Ireland, Spain, Australia, India, Mexico, Japan, Brazil, Germany, China, Canada, France, the Netherlands and Italy – with more international sites expected to launch in the future.

About this Business
From Our Editors
In 1890, the Cotaco Opera House hosted many of the country's top, touring song-and-dance acts. Through the golden age of vaudeville and during its brief resurgence as a teen fad in 1978, the opera house reverberated with rollicking live performances.
Today, it's a riot of flavors that fills the brick building with guests. In 1996, Meg and Scott Curry adopted the historical venue with a mission to continue its spirit of creativity. The couple works together to dream up gala-worthy catered dinners and a lunch menu packed with fresh meat and produce. As head chef, Scott perfects the dishes, calling upon a lifetime of classic French culinary training and experience in kitchens throughout the United States, including Decatur Country Club and the Ritz Carlton Hotel. Meanwhile, Meg draws on her love of travel to inform globally inspired dishes such as a muffaletta sandwich with olive relish and spring-roll salad with ginger vinaigrette.

Because many organizations don't perform security unless they have to, more than 80% of all web applications are being exposed to vulnerabilities. In comes regulation. There are a number of different industries other than financial and healthcare that deal with PII and PHI but are either not regulated at all or are regulated very loosely. This presentation will discuss the various regulations (PCI, SOX, HIPAA, etc.) and what each does to address web application security, if any, as well as the shortcomings of each. Finally, it will further address industries that need to be more strictly regulated in order to better protect personal information.

One guy assaulted two women with a belt and his acquaintance ran over two bystanders in a spree of violence in West Hollywood yesterday, L.A. County Sheriff's Department officials allege.
A woman who was struck by a vehicle was hospitalized in critical condition, and the pair of alleged winners in the car were caught about a mile away, deputies said.
It all started with an argument between the suspects and two women in a parking lot at Robertson Boulevard and El Tovar Place shortly after 2 a.m., they said:
Authorities allege that 23-year-old Joseph Osuna of Bakersfield eventually struck the women with his belt before getting into a car driven by 29-year-old Hector Hernandez of Whittier.
Sheriff's officials said in a statement that the car then struck two bystanders who had nothing to do with the argument involving the two women:
As Hernandez and Osuna fled the scene, witness accounts stated another woman and another man, who were not involved in the altercation, were intentionally run over.
The two suspects were stopped by deputies about a mile east, on Santa Monica Boulevard and Genesee Avenue, sheriff's officials said.

This open-top version of the SEAT Ibiza Cupra hot hatch has a chopped-down windscreen and slim windows, with a distinctly wedgy profile. It's called the Ibiza Cupster, and it'll make its debut at the Worthersee tuning show in Germany later this month.
The Cupster is a strict two-seater, with the Ibiza's rear seats ditched for a double buttress design topped with rollover hoops. Inside, the two occupants sit a massive 80mm lower than in a road-going Ibiza Cupra, in an effort to give the Cupster a truly sporting driivng posiiton and lower centre of gravity.
Inside, the low-slung bucket seats are matched with dark Alcantara upholstery and a new aniline leather treatment on the steering wheel, not available in the production SEAT range.
The model has been created to celebrate 30 years of Ibiza production, and it uses the ultimate Ibiza's engine. Under the Cupster's bonnet is the same 1.4-litre turbo four-cylinder as the standard Cupra, good for 178bhp and driving the front wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox.
Don't expect to see a Cupster version on sale any time soon, though: like most of Worthersee's exhibits, this is purely a one-off example showcasing SEAT's sense of humour.

Why study history? I hate history! I don't get it!
These are three statements that students regularly make at the start of a class. Usually by the end of the semester or class their perspective will have changed for the positive. "Why study history?" begs the reply from philosopher George Santayana "those who fail to remember the past are condemned to repeat it." The greatest lesson history offers is the ability to avoid making the same mistakes. "I hate history!" usually stems from past experiences with teachers who over emphasize the rote memorization of dates, names and places. History is a story. There needs to be a flow to the story, connective tissue if you will that makes sense of those dates, names and places - especially when I help students make the link to them and their lives in 2014! "I don't get it!" this is where patience and the interest to learn pays off.
Besides having taught year long curriculum in American Studies II and social studies electives that are semester long, I have also created two courses: the first dealing with authentic civic education, the second addressing the foundations of homeland security.
While a student may not go on to become a historian, students will gain new appreciation for history as a discipline and understand its applicability to contemporary life.

Treasurer Candidate Visits Murray Center
Cross came to the facility at the behest of State Representative Charlie Meier, one of the strongest advocates in Springfield for keeping the facility open. Cross called Murray a "unique" facility that should not be closed.
"Met with a bunch of parents and a lot of the folks that live and work there...there are people going through a lot of challenges and the Murray Center provides a safe environment and a place to call home...and you can't get a real sense of that unless you [go] there" said Cross.
Governor Quinn has yet to visit the Murray Center, despite several requests from the Murray Parents Association and Representative Meier. Cross says he believes in balancing the budget in the State, and says that Murray can easily fit into such a budget.
"You gotta set priorities. We have more money as a state than we've ever had...we can't ignore the needs of the folks [at Murray Center]" said Cross.
While Cross admitted that there was little power a Treasurer could wield to stop the Murray closure, Cross said he would act as an advocate for the Murray Center and it's residents in Springfield.
Cross, visited the center while on a campaign tour in southern Illinois. He faces a democratic challenger, Mike Frerichs, in November for the seat currently occupied by State Treasurer Dan Rutherford, who opted not to run again.

Chap 2
"I think I activated it" I said upset. The beeping got louder and more faster. "of Fu-" a blue light had surrounded us and took us to a desert looking area. Me and Ana looked at each other. We where at a desert? Why a desert? "where the hell are we" Ana asked. Looking around I see a tall man with brown hair. He was looking at us like we where aliens. He pointed a gun at us. "who the hell are you" he asked us.
I gulped."Great first Zombie's now a cowboy, what else is next?" I look at a Mexican man that came beside the tall man "great now we have two cowboys!" I said sarcastically while limping to Ana who was just starring at them. God I ached my hand had been grabbed by the zombie and it had a tight grip. "you two look like you got beat" the mexican said studying us.
I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. "yeah, we were fighting some Zombie's." I said looking at my wrist realizing that it had now become red and the skin was pealing of with bruises on it. They still looked at us like we where Mental. "what year is this?" I asked them. "1865" my eyes widened "we got sent to the wild west!" I said looking at Ana.
She looked at the time machine "yeah it says that" the two men looked at me and Ana. "your not from here." me and Ana nodded "where from the future" Ana said "the year 2020" I said. "I'm Austin" I said awkwardly "and I'm Ana". The two men looked at Each other then back to us. "Im Blondie" the tall one said and then the other one spoke up "I'm Tuco" I nodded but sat down on the ground and Ana did the same.
"you two don't look so good..." Blondie said looking at us with concern. "yeah we just fought against like 100 zombies." I said. "What the hell is a zombie" Tuco asked us. "Undead people that walk around and bite people turning them undead mindless slaves that eat people" I say. "we need help fighting them" Ana said while looking at them. I aspected them to call us crazy and just walk off.
"okay we can help you" Blondie said. They looked at my wrist and saw the red imprint on it "are they really that strong?" Tuco asked. Ana nodded "yeah they really are that strong" she said while rubing her shoulder that a Zombie had grabbed. Before I knew it we where getting into a stagecoach. "where are you taking us" I asked laying back and realaxing. "where taking you to the civil war medic" I smiled "thanks" I said closing my eyes before I knew it we where there and sent to a room. Me and Ana had people healing our injuries,by putting wet cloths on them and lightly rubbing them. After they where done I looked at the injurers that where now bandaged up.
After a little bit more of resting me and Ana where good as new. I stretched feeling a lot better than I did before. Tuco and Blondie watched me and Ana. Which was a bit awkward, but I didn't really care. They where looking at our guns like they had just came out of the ground or where fake. "uh they have guns like this in the future." I say realizing that there not used to these types of guns. "it's a AK47" Ana said. Ana looked at the time machine "we can't go back in time until it recharges" I sighed "when will that be" I asked
"uh your not going to like it." she told me. I scowled "why not?" I asked "umm we can go back in a month" my jaw dropped "a month?"
Ana nodded "yeah a month" I couldn't believe it

Man Believes He Stopped Cabs From Honking So Much
No way.
For some reason, people are entertaining the idea that taxi drivers are going to stop honking so much just because of a single reminder from the Taxi and Limousine Commission that noise pollution can result in a $350 fine. The fantasy is even getting a pretty face to represent it, with TLC Commissioner David Yassky citing one e-mail from a concerned citizen as the reason he's finally (supposedly) laying down the law on horn-use. Meet Nat Klipper, a Soho-dwelling charitable endowment manager, who wrote that taxis were interrupting his sleep. "It pains my soul to hear these guys leaning on their horns," he tells the Post today. And while he acknowledges it might not last, he's doing the TLC a solid by vouching for them, while simultaneously ignoring reality: "I actually do notice a difference," he says. "Maybe I'm imagining it." Just maybe.

Bearskin Blog
Remembering a burning forest, 9 years later
Nine years ago today the eastern section of the Boundary Waters canoe area was raging with fire. 75,000 acres of pristine land was burning wildly out of control. Houses were lost. Lives were risked. Smoke filled the air all the way down to the Twin Cities.
And that is when Sue and Bob McCloughan signed the purchase agreement to buy Bearskin Lodge, in the midst of a fire that threatened to burn down the business.
We spent our days at school with one eye on our students and the other glued to the internet news about the fire. Eventually I just gave up and said "Kids, let's go off topic and learn something really interesting about fire, that will also explain why your eyes are watering now." We all watched the changing fire maps and ravaged pictures.Photo courtesy Gunflint Trail Fire Department
As the fire came closer to Bearskin, Bob & I tried to ascertain what precautions were being taken by Bearskin. The owner wanted the lodge sale to remain a secret from his employees, yet from afar we were wildly concerned that "our" property would burn down and wished we could dare ask the employees what was happening. We called the owner, who said everything is fine, the sprinklers are going, and it's so little to worry about that we're flying to the tulip show in Iowa.
We already had enough history with him to think perhaps a second call was in order. I called Bearskin and got Dee, who would later turn out to be a dear friend. I said I was concerned about the Lodge and wondering what they were doing. Dee assumed I was another one of the many concerned members of the Bearskin fan club, and talked about the preparations to leave. "Are the sprinklers on?" I asked. It was evident that homes and businesses with the fire suppression sprinklers were surviving. "Um, no, we, um, won't be using the sprinklers," she said. "We don't think we need them." She was respectful enough of her current boss that she didn't say, "No, we won't be using the sprinklers because the FEMA sprinkler system was never maintained and is now in a thousand broken pieces, and actually we all think our boss believes it is in the best interest of the resort to burn down." (She saved those truths for later, in the many re-tellings of the story.) Dee said other staff would be leaving for town with trucks and equipment, that the managers had left long ago to get a motel in Silver Bay to house their secret dogs and cats. The owners? Flying to a tulip show in Iowa. (Although we later heard they did show up at the lodge at some point, so good.) As we heard this on the phone, it was all we could do not to drive up ourselves and start pulling together sprinklers and trying to save the place.
Most Bearskin employees went to shelters in Grand Marais. Being low-level employees who ended up totally responsible for the stressful decision- making while the fire advanced towards Bearskin was very traumatic for some of the staffPicture courtesy Mn IncidentCommand
One of them had a seizure outside the shelter, changing his life for years to come. Another just cried and cried. The youngest employee, Adde, rose to the occasion and figured out how to be the adult in the group, a skill she can still muster up regularly in her real life today.
Of course, we only heard these stories after the fact. All we knew was that we just put a lot of money down and signed a pile of papers to buy a resort where no preparations were being made to keep the resort from burning down momentarily.
And luckily, it didn't. A tongue of the fire made its way towards our area, but was kept under control. The physical beauty of our area remained untouched by fire and the cabins and resorts around us continued to be safe. This time. There's a long history of fires in these big woods and we understand that our turn could come. We hope not soon.
The Ham Lake fires started because of one camper. Conditions were right to spread a fire very quickly – as they are today. The individual who accidentally started the fire was identified, demonized, persecuted, prosecuted, and basically dragged through hell until he eventually committed suicide. Politicians tell us we live in a Christian nation, but if so, we ought to be able to do forgiveness a little better instead of always focusing on retribution. He made a mistake. Any of us could. There's a fine retelling of his sad story here.Photo by Sue Prom
The lesson is please, please, please be careful with fires up here. It's dry and windy today. There are thousands of branches down on the ground from this winter's bend-down. Keep fires small. Some of you folks —is this a southern thing?—who like their pile of wood to be in a 5 foot tall tipi shape when it gets lit are just asking for trouble with those giant fires. Small, under control, and always watched is the way the pros make a fire. Above all, don't walk away from the fire. We see this all the time in the campground: raging fire in the pit, nobody around for miles—or even worse, obviously tents full of sleeping people. You can do better than that.
We will have fire on the Gunflint Trail again. We are all a little more prepared for it now, after lessons learned from Ham Lake. Bearskin has invested in an outstanding all – encompassing FEMA fire suppression sprinkler system. We test it regularly, keeping it in perfect shape each year. Bob and Quinn are fire department members, who have been well-trained to assist in a fire or a rescue and best of all, they have fire department radios to be in quick contact in an emergency. And needless to say, if something bad happens Bob, Sue, Quinn & Kate will not be off at a flower show, we will be here every minute to make sure, first of all, that our sweet staff is safe and untraumatized and secondly, to do what we must to preserve all your Bearskin memories here.
But let's avoid another Gunflint Trail fire if we can. Do your part!Photo by Lee Johnson
The Bearskin version of Fox News
Almost everyone who visits Bearskin has high hopes of observing three specific northwoods animals. The number one goal is always to spot a moose, then glimpse a bear (but only the rear end, as it runs away), and maybe, with luck, see or hear a wolf.
So you might be surprised to know that none of those creatures are the animal that Bearskin guests talk about the most during their stay. Foxes are actually the critters that make our guests extra happy. Hundreds of photos of posing and preening foxes are snapped every summer around the Main Lodge. We sell dozens of fox stuffed animals, foxy kids' purses, fox books, and fox cards.
Bearskin has a long history of having fairly tame red foxes living on the grounds of the resort. When we first arrived at Bearskin almost a decade ago, our employee Adde regularly made meals for a ridiculously tame fox, and even allowed the fox into her apartment occasionally. Foxes have been known to get in canoes, and supposedly a fox can untie a boat from the dock. They peek in windows, pose on deck railings, and occasionally run off with meat intended for the grill. The Shoe Stealing Fox (aka Imelda), was perhaps the most famous Bearskin fox, covertly sneaking flip flops, hiking boots, and tennis shoes off the deck and steps of cabin 7. Many a family combed the woods behind cabin 7, desperately trying to find a missing sneaker so a kid wouldn't spend the remainder of their vacation limping around with only one shoe.
So here is a story to add to the fox legends: About a week ago, when the ice was still solid, Kate and Quinn observed a fox crossing the bay with something in her mouth. At first they assumed the fox was carrying a rabbit or squirrel, killed for dinner. But as they looked more closely, they realized she was carrying a baby fox kit all the way across the lake. Then she came back for another. And another, and another. By the time she was done ferrying her whole litter across the lake, the fox looked exhausted. It was no small task to move her family. This was peculiar behavior. Quinn and Kate wondered why she would go to that much trouble to abandon a home and move so far away.
Previously, Quinn and Bob had been rebuilding the steps to cabin 7. When they pulled the old steps off, they found chewed boards, broken styrofoam, and multiple signs that animals had been tunneling under cabin 7 for years. So, of course, Quinn and Bob did a top-notch job of resealing every crack and hole, nailing up new boards and filling every possible animal entry point with spray foam. No creature would be getting back under that cabin!
Quinn thought about the fox mother for a few days and then started to wonder if her grueling move might be connected in some way to the rebuilding of the cabin 7 steps. Yesterday Quinn and Bob went back to cabin 7 and pulled off a few of the new boards, attempting to see under the steps.
It was a surprise to discover a sizable fresh tunnel under the steps, circumventing their repairs. At that point it became apparent what must have happened: Bob and Quinn had accidentally entombed the litter of baby foxes. For two days they had worked on the steps, sawing and pounding and probably terrorizing a little fox family. When the job was over and the foxes' fear subsided, that mother dug an incredibly difficult new tunnel, removed all her babies, and stoically carried all of them as far away from that dreadful Cabin 7 as she possibly could.
We were left with two thoughts:
First, that is an extraordinarily heroic fox mother.
And secondly, deep under cabin 7 there are probably several years' worth of missing shoes.

President Uchtdorf is a breath of fresh air. The why question is essential for all aspects of the Gospel, because without out it, we are nothing more than subordinate servants and would never reach the pinnacle that we are taught to achieve. Mindless obedience misses the whole point, from the Council in Heaven onward.

Demonstrated here once again is that there is truly a lot of good in this world.
I think we forget that sometimes when so much chaos is filtering in all around
It has always been my contention that when ever women try to be more like men, they have to lower themselves in order to do it. I'm a guy and by no means am I "male bashing". I just feel that women give us a light to follow and can inspire us to do better and to be better as they work with us, side by side, not to compete against us, but to use their strengths to compliment our strengths and as a result, the world is a more beautiful and stable place.

I was waiting for it all through the talk: What does it have to do with flying?
I'll tell you - because of God and the incredible creation of man and woman, there are people like President Uchtdorf who can relate to many people on many planes of life - including being a pilot and the laws of physics and gravity, as well as being a husband to a sweet woman, who understands a woman's needs to hear the beautiful things of life.

Pres. Uchtdor's talk was very inciteful. My wife came home and recited each
point to me, and to her sister who didn't attend the meeting, and to another
person on the phone--all that evening. We need positive messages like his in
these times. We run into so much negativity and it is ironic that so many of our
leader's messages are not only liberating but are the things we really desire
deep down--if we'd just let ourselves live them.
It's funny how the things we can't forget are the things we should forget, and the things we should never forget about our nature and our purposes here in life and the point of the gospel, are things we so readily forget.
It's time to stop staring at the screens waiting for the next horrible bit of bad news on which we can fret ourselves. Let's go out an live.

"Bermuda Cedar" Top 5 Page for this destination Bermuda Cedar Tip by grandmaR
Bermuda Cedar, Bermuda: 1 reviews and 5 photos
Favorite thing: The cedar is a wonderful aromatic rich looking wood that is endemic to Bermuda. That means it doesn't grow anywhere else. (It's also not really a cedar.) The first shipwrecked mariners used it to rebuild the Deliverance which took them on to Virginia. It is also extensively used for woodwork in places like St. Peters in St. George. There was even a cedar prison in St. George's.
Juniperus Bermudiana is harder and darker than normal cedar, and it repels moths and fleas and to prevent mildew and rot. Settlers not only used it in ship building but also used it to cure toothaches and coughs (in the form of cedarberry syrup), and they boiled cedar brush in water to break fevers.
Fondest memory: Four centuries ago, Bermuda cedars grew throughout the islands, about 500 trees to an acre, according to some reports. But in 1944 Bermuda cedars suffered a tragedy that no one foresaw, when oyster shell scale, a form of fungus, attacked the trees. A year later, another fungus, juniper scale, struck. Ten years later, 90 percent of Bermuda cedars were dead. As many as 75,000 dead cedars were cut down as authorities launched reforestation programs.
