McCauley is one of the best kept secrets in NY, I ski this mountain often and think it is one of the best mountains in NY. McCauley has 633' of vertical terrain and 23 trails, but has the feel of a big mountain. If you like bumps and glades McCauley has the best; they have bump and glade runs for beginners right up to a true expert, with big drop type runs. McCauley also has great cruiser runs from gentle slopes to steep headwalls. On the lower mountain there are great runs for the beginners who are just getting started, once you have mastered the lower mountain you are ready for the top. In 2010 McCauley added new terrain features for there terrain park, and have made big improvements in the past couple of years. This mountain has terrain for every level of skier in the family, not to mention the best prices around. I have found this to be the best value around for ski mountains. Right now McCauley has some of the best conditions in NY, they have been getting snow almost every day and have been pumping out the snow for a great base. They have also purchased a new groomer and grinder for 2010 creating some of the best groomed trails around. I recommend making the trip, you won't be disappointed going to McCauley Mtn.

I am putting the finishing touches on a theme for a client but I am stuck on a particular need.
This is a movie critic's website and needs the ability to select 'star' images when the post is created/edited and have them show up in a particular spot on the posting. Basically, there would be a total of 9 selectable 'star' images (from 0 stars, including half stars, all the way up to a possible 4 stars max).
I was thinking it would need to be a custom field on the post page, but I am at a loss as to how to properly tie it into the post template. The images would be with the rest of the theme images.
If anyone could point me in the right direction or give me some guidance to help me understand the relations, I would be most grateful.
[No bumping, thank you.]

Precious Metals - Jim Gary
02/10/2009 - By by Kristen Weston
Remembering Jim Gary - world renowned sculptor.
(Editors Note: This story, which originally ran in the July 2005 issue of Living In Colts Neck, is dedicated to the memory of Jim Gary. Please take a look back with us into the amazing life of an extraordinary man.)
When you think of a junkyard what comes to mind? Exactly what the name implies: junk. What if you were to think outside the box and view it from another perspective - perhaps not a junkyard at all, but instead a graveyard filled with skeletal remains of almost animal-like structure? Well, thats exactly what renowned sculptor Jim Gary did, and soon he began creating massive prehistoric metal fossils, dinosaurs to be specific. From his time as a child growing up with 10 brothers and sisters in the rural countryside that is Colts Neck, Gary showed signs of ambition and independence. His childhood years were spent doing odd jobs and yard work for his family and neighbors, such as E. Donald and Dorothy Sterner, as well as raising cows, pigs, and chickens. Being one of the only African- American families residing in Colts Neck during the 1940s, the Gary family strove to make ends meet; the philosophy at that time was, more or less, that if you can walk you can work. Gary worked hard to help his family. He was an ambitious child, working hard from morning to night, and not much has changed in his adult years. Gary is still working hard creating unique structures and extremely realistic dinosaurs. His ability to think outside the box by working hard has led him to become an actively creative individual and artist with a slew of life experiences and a rare imagination.
Gary has always felt he had an ability to be and do something different. His superior talent in aspects of welding, his imagination and creation of realistic and abstract art, has proven him to be one of the worlds leading sculptors. Yet while his work is known around the world, it doesnt have the same effect here in Colts Neck or, for that matter, in New Jersey as a whole.
For over 40 years Gary has dedicated himself to leaving his mark on the world, and art is the occupation that has ultimately brought him fame. His artistic direction has brought him a great variety of accomplishments and appreciation for not only art, but for all the people he has met on the way. He has been a featured guest on many news broadcasting station, in news articles and books, CNN, Ripleys Believe It or Not (twice!), New York Times (twice), National Geographic World (1978), Today Show (New York & Philadelphia), Captain Kangaroo, American Welding Journal, and Disneys Wonderful World of Knowledge Yearbook (1985), just to name a few. However, Gary never thought that he would one day be sculpting dinosaurs or anything of that nature.
Actually, the way he explains it is that he "stumbled" upon it due to his need to get rid of some automobile and farm machinery parts in a stockyard where he used to work. Gary had plans to work as a mechanic, and has always had the ability to work well with his hands. This led Gary to enlist in the Navy, where he earned an aviation mechanics license. He pumped gas for a few years at a Colts Neck gas station while awaiting a position at the Job Corps. He then made a career as a trainer at Job Corps, where he mastered the intricate art of welding. After three years there, Gary created a gallery in Colts Neck and soon began working at a former chicken coop in Howell Township, where he began his dinosaur creations and abstract art. LICN took a walk on the wild side with Gary at his prehistoric adorned home in mid-May to discuss his artistic talent, his very fulfilling life, and his experiences on the way to the top.
LICN: Is being a sculptor something that you have always aspired to one day become?
JG: Actually, being a sculptor is something I kind of stumbled across. I worked as a mechanic and realized that there were an awful lot of extra parts lying around. I had to figure out something to do with these extra parts. In the arts you have to be different, and I was looking for exactly thatsomething different to do. The junkyard reminded me of a graveyardsomething different. Then I just ran with the idea of using this extra junk. So I began pulling car parts out and putting them back together in a different form. One thing led to another, and my work started to get bigger and bigger.
LICN: Did you ever use anything other than metal to piece your work together?
JG: Yes, I actually started with wood. I realized that you cant really stretch wood to where you want it to be or how big you want it to be. With metal you are able to stretch the parts as far as you would like them to go.
LICN: What was the first piece of work that you created?
JG: The first things were birds. I started out making regular dayto-day birds, and some abstracts here and there. From that came the dinosaurs.
LICN: So from the regular everyday birds came prehistoric birds?
JG: Yes, it started with the pterodactyl. The pterodactyl seemed to me to be a more realistic creation than some of the other things I was working on at the time, like the abstracts.
LICN: What did you imagine yourself doing as an adolescent?
JG: I wanted to be a mechanic or some type of machinist. It was hard to find a job doing that at the time. But I eventually found a position at the Job Corps, which was my first real job. I taught there for a few years and began my welding there too. I tried to find the trainees I was teaching something to do, and I guess my work as an artist really started out there.
LICN: If you were to describe your work to someone who had never seen it, how would you describe it?
JG: Its really hard to describe what I do. I guess the best way to do that is to say that it is totally abstract but at the same time it is definitely very realistic. Its quite hard to explain it really.
LICN: Obviously your sculptures are quite large and extremely involved. Can you explain the process which you must go through to get your work to what it is?
JG: I go into the shop and I can be in there for three straight weeks at a time. I focus completely on that particular project. The process that your mind goes through when youre doing this is to just keep building and dont quit. I dont know where it comes from, but I dont quit, I just keep going until it is completed. When youre really putting these pieces together and look at all the parts around you and where they are supposed to fit, you cant stop. I take all the time I can to make these pieces fit in all the right places.
LICN: How long does it take to complete a dinosaur?
JG: The medium-sized dinosaurs can take three months. They are very concentrated and full of time. When I put these pieces together I can see it move and the symmetries of the sculpture.
LICN: You are obviously greatly dedicated to your work and the outcome of your particular projects. Do you have something in mind when you go into the shop?
JG: Basically, I look at the parts I have when Im in the shop and see what I need. For instance, if I need a shoulder blade I go out to the junkyard and get one. I personally know the automobile pretty well. When I go into the junkyard I know where to get the particular piece.
LICN: So are you able to take the automobile and visualize it as something like a dinosaur?
JG: Most everything that is in an automobile relates back to the animal. It is almost as if the automobile itself is a living, breathing creature. When I go into the shop and begin working on a piece I have something in mind, but I never know if that something will be built at that moment. Like the stegosaurus - I got all of those pieces from a junkyard. Pretty much, I go out to the yard and buy the parts that I need and just do it.
LICN: Why dinosaurs?
JG: At the time when I was in the arts I was building these kinds of things, but I wasnt unique enough to do my own type of thing. I tried to come up with something that was going to be totally my own. It was tough to try and do this and figure out whats next because everyone had done animals. Then I came up with the idea of sculpting a skeleton. You know, people really enjoy these prehistoric beings and they sort of look at it as an abstract personality, but they are really looking at a dinosaurthe skeleton of a dinosaur. The way I see it was if I was to make it in the arts I needed to make my fingerprint on the world and have people want to look at my work. I look at my work and see what an accomplishment I have made to the world and myself. It is very rewarding to me. Its just a tremendous feeling to meet all these different people at museums and around the world. When a museum features your work and has all kinds of information on your work it is a really big thing. People at the time when I started in this field that had work in museums were really big people. Its just a very rewarding feeling.
LICN: Do you have a favorite piece?
JG: (Laughs) Thats something that is always so hard to pick because you have a whole list of things you can really pick and choose from. (Points to a triceratops) I always liked this piece right here a lot.
LICN: What other types of sculptures have you created besides dinosaurs?
JG: There are so many different types of things I have done. When I go to art shows there is so much that goes into creating these pieces and so much to think about and create. (Points to a torso of a woman called "Universal Woman" sculpted of automotive washers) I have done this torso, plenty of birds, abstracts, and tons of things. Some [artists] stick to one type of work, but I like to do a variety of different types of things, I guess to please myself. I try to come up with something new for each art show. And at the time, that was the way to win money, which really wasnt that much. But it was my goal to win the show every time.
LICN: And did you win?
JG: Yes! (He laughs). I won so much and I never got tired of doing it. I still wanted to go to the shows and come up with something new each time I always needed to do something different.
LICN: What would you consider to be your greatest accomplishment in the arts that has made you stand out from all other artists?
JG: Well, I won the first Pioneer Award for New Jersey, which was exclusive to the state. It was really an interesting thing to receive this kind of award, but a really neat thing too. I also had a show in New York City where I was surrounded by a bunch of topnotch artists and sculptors from around the world. This particular show in New York City was for the best exhibit and I happened to win the prize for that show. I was embarrassed to be winning the prize because these people that I was around were all very well known in the artsit was just an unbelievable thing that happened. I had attended shows in and around New York, but I wasnt in any of the museums in New York City. Soon after winning this particular show, the MOMA museum asked me why I never came to them to feature my art. (He laughs) I told them that I had been knocking on their door for months and years.
LICN: You have been featured on a number of broadcast television shows and have been in a variety of newspapers and magazines. How does that make you feel?
JG: Its overwhelming sometimes, but it is really amazing. What keeps me going is the fact that people have some kind of interest in my work. [For example] I opened this show at the Smithsonian one year and I can still remember how weird it was to be doing this. Actually, when I opened up at the Smithsonian I was also featuring my work in Japan. I flew to Japan for the interviews and things that I had to do and I couldnt have been in Japan for more than eight hours when I had to pick up and go fly back to New Jersey to make the show at the Smithsonian. But sometimes I wonder if the people here [in New Jersey] realize that I am a local artistif they realize that I am always here, not in some other part of the world.
LICN: What you are saying really is that you are given all of this attention in other parts of the world, especially Japan, but locally in New Jersey no one really knows who you are?
JG: Yes. In Japan I am on television shows and on buses and things like that, but when I am here no one knows that I am.
LICN: Is there anything that you would like the local community to know about you or your work that maybe they really dont know?
JG: The people here look at the pieces and the parts of my work instead of looking at the animal. You shouldnt approach art and begin to pull it apart. I think that people should really look at it and enjoy the piece of work instead of saying "well, its just a bunch of car parts." You can very well do the same thing with a painting and say, "well its just a canvas and some paint." When I work on these pieces I try to camouflage them well so when you do look at it everything just seems to flow together.
LICN: What other types of things are you involved with besides your work?
JG: Being a full-time artist was a full-time jobthere wasnt much else I could do because being an artist trying to make it you had to promote and you had to build. All of my time was spent at shows and there was nothing else. I mean, I would take a chance every so often and go out to a movie or something like that, but that was it.
LICN: Are there any artists that have influenced you and your work?
JG: I have always admired Picassos work and how he managed to put things together. I try to go a step beyond that so that I can put a mass of pieces together instead of just two or three.
LICN: You have attended schools to teach kids about your work. What do you tell them?
JG: I remember it had something to do with what my father always told me. He said that idle hands were the tools of the devil. I have always kept myself busy throughout my life. And while working in the arts I realized that its a way to say to the kids that there is something out there to do. If you want to do something there are things around that are right at your fingertips you just have to look.
LICN: Do you think that your work will have historical significance in the future like Van Goghs or Picassos painting do?
JG: I hope so. Working with kids from all over the world, I have noticed that they have really responded to my work. I am very appreciative for that. You know, I get a kick out of it when a parent or teacher comes up to me and says that their son is doing things like I do. Also, kids will write letters and send me a picture of one of the dinosaurs and tell me they want to buy it from me. (Gary laughs) They dont even realize the size of them and how big they really are, they just see the picture and think thats what they are getting.

ARLINGTON, Texas – There are a variety of Final Four storylines that deserve a mention. But I can't wait to see if Shabazz Napier finishes this thing. He's been the best player in the Big Dance thus far. Will the veteran guard end his college career with two more otherworldly performances and a national championship ring? We'll see.
UConn versus Florida
What to watch: When these two teams met Dec. 2, Napier was just too much for a good Gators squad. There was a lot of postgame chatter about Scottie Wilbekin's absence in the final minutes of that game, which ended when Napier hit a buzzer-beater to win 65-64. It's important to note that the Gators also shot 49 percent from the field. They committed 16 turnovers, though. Florida has been a better ballhandling team throughout the NCAA tournament. But the Gators are ranked 115th nationally with turnovers on 17.5 percent of their possessions, according to Ken Pomeroy. Another sloppy night could lead to a loss. Good news for Florida? Wilbekin has two turnovers in four tournament games.
Who to watch: Napier. That's all. He's magic. He has put together a remarkable run and carried UConn to the Final Four. There have been a multitude of Kemba Walker comparisons, and they're all legit. We're watching something, someone special. And even though Florida has the better team, UConn has the best player on the floor. The best player in North Texas.
Key matchup: There's been a lot of talk about Napier versus Wilbekin. That's obviously a key matchup. But Patric Young and DeAndre Daniels battled in the first game. This matchup will be critical on Saturday, too.
Who wins: I just think Florida has the weapons to finish strong and secure the victory. I say Florida 68, UConn 64.
Kentucky versus Wisconsin
What to watch: There's so much talk about pace. Wisconsin is generally viewed as a plodding team that tries to slow the game down and lure opponents into the gritty games that it has won all season. But Kentucky beat Michigan in a 57-possession affair in the Elite Eight. Kentucky can go slow. This game will center on efficiency and execution, on offense and defense, in the half court. It won't be a track meet.
Who to watch: Frank Kaminsky is a 7-footer who has made 38 percent of his 3-pointers this season. He scored 28 points and registered 11 rebounds against Arizona, which was ranked No. 1 in adjusted defensive efficiency by Ken Pomeroy. Kentucky has a bunch of talented athletes. But Kaminsky is unique. He's a perplexing athlete for any defense.
Key matchup: Kaminsky versus the Wildcats. Maybe John Calipari will put Julius Randle on Kaminsky. He could also go with Dakari Johnson or Alex Poythress. It's not an easy matchup. Arizona tried Kaleb Tarczewski and Aaron Gordon. Didn't work. This is the matchup, whatever it ultimately looks like, that will decide the outcome.
Who wins: Kentucky is just on a different level right now. I'll say Kentucky 72, Wisconsin 67.

For days, Mott has been realistic about his chances; he's seen other horsemen hit unexpected winning streaks, has known the dry spells that can suddenly hit a leading trainer's string. Just because he was ahead at week one, or week two, or week three of the meet doesn't mean he'll be the last man standing when they run the last race on the last day, and this is what Mott has been quick to say.

There's a famous Mario Puzo quote from The Godfather.
Revenge is a dish that tastes best when served cold.
How to interpret this sentence?
What it means is that revenge is often a hot blooded response to a hurt, a furious lashing out as a reaction to the hurt. However, if you want to truly punish your enemy you must stop, and, in a cold and calculating manner, determine what and how to return and recompense yourself for the hurt he has done you.
The food metaphor is fairly random, the basic meaning is cold blooded revenge is better than hot blooded revenge. Puzo did not originate the expression, it has a history before him. However, it is associated with him because in some people's mind it is a good characterization of one of the core sub-themes of "The Godfather", and particularly the philosophy of Michael Corleone.
Whether that is true, or whether revenge actually is best served cold, I will leave as an exercise for the reader.
Wikipedia discusses "revenge is a dish best served cold":
Strangely, this is not what my initial reaction to the phrase has been. Having first heard it spoken by Klingons I had assumed it was a pun on dying in space which — as you know — is rather cold.
Revenge is a dish best served cold. - suggesting that emotional detachment and planning ("cold blooded") are best for taking revenge.
The earliest well-known example of this proverb in print appears as "La vengeance est un plat qui se mange froid" in the novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses (1782) by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos. (Dangerous Liaisons)
The saying exists in many cultures, including Sicilian, Spanish and Pashtun, making its ultimate origin difficult to determine. The modern English wording is attributed to Dorothy Parker. In Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (and, in reference, Kill Bill) it is said to be a Klingon proverb and was quoted by Khan Noonian Singh. In comic books it is often associated with Batman's enemy Mr. Freeze.
Speaking of early antecedents for the sentiment that "Vengeance is a dish best served cold," we have this famous (and perhaps proverbial) remark made by the fourteen-year-old Grettir from Grettir's Saga (written circa 1325):
which is translated by Denton Fox and Herman Pálsson in their edition of the saga as
This saying suggests that—in fourteenth-century Iceland, and perhaps for a long time before that—an unconsidered revenge was viewed as less admirable than a carefully plotted one, but that not taking revenge at all was deemed utterly shameful.
The OED gives the meaning as "vengeance is more satisfying when exacted in cold blood" and presents a quotation from 1871. It also notes that the same sentiment had been expressed in German in 1884 as "das Gericht der Revanche kalt zu essen".
The definition given by the OED suggests that the expression is not intended as an admonishment not to act hot-headedly, but rather an observation that the full emotive satisfaction of revenge comes biding one's time before hurting one's foe.
The question has already been answered (several times), but I'd like to add a caveat.
The general conception is that revenge is more satisfying if it's properly planned and not done in haste. It should be pointed out that properly planned revenge/justice is also much safer (though I'm not certain what the exact connotation of the original saying was).
In plain English, if a supervisor harasses you, and you lose your temper and punch in him in the face, you'll probably get fired (and maybe go to jail). But if you take a deep breath and cool down, you can then calmly take your time plotting a much safer form of revenge.
Revenge is a dish best served cold means to try to get someone back for the cost they cost you, and that revenge is sweet, like if someone does something bad to you, eventually you are going to try to get revenge.
None of the above remarks is correct, although all are common misconceptions. In particular, the expression does not appear in Dangerous Liaisons in English or French, in any form. In its early appearances in literature, it is used as a stratagem to persuade a young hothead to delay a foolish attempt at revenge, giving mature good sense a chance to reassert itself and dictate a wiser course.
The first known appearance in English is in an 1861 translation of the 1846 French novel "Mathilde", but it is italized there as if quoted from a common langue d'oc expression.
To me, it has always meant that if you let your anger cool, you will decide against attempting revenge, because it is likely to rebound on you. That is, the dish that is revenge will be less appetizing, like a dish that has gone cold.

FLINT, Mich. - Barack Obama says he is going to visit Iraq and Afghanistan before the November election.
The presumed Democratic presidential nominee said he spoke with Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari on Monday about the war and told him he looks forward to seeing him in Baghdad.
Obama has said before he was considering a trip, but his comment to reporters Monday was his first firm declaration that he will be making the trip. He said more details will be announced shortly.
He said he told Zebari that he was encouraged by the reductions of violence in Iraq, but that as president he will carefully move to end U.S. combat operations in Iraq.

Dixie Diner: nostalgia with a kick
David and I decided on Dixie Diner walking up Sycamore Street as we toured the old town. On entering this restaurant, the high metallic ceilings, the turquoise interiour colour scheme (even though some of the decor suggested a French bistro), and tunes from the early 1960s (like "One Fine Day") carried me back to round about a decade before I was born. Several years later, the management and menu changed to resemble more of a diner than a bistro. Since the new management, I have always tried to eat at the counter. Either style and menu worked well for me. Dixie Diner has been in that location since 1945, before the restoration of the old town. In both versions, the service was as fast as it could be.
Favorite Dish: I had heard that portobello mushrooms were a good substitute for hamburger or beef steak, so I put the theory to the test by, just that once, ordering a portobello "burger" with lettuce and tomato and a side of fries. It tasted all right, but it was no substitute for a good hamburger in terms of taste and in terms of its ability to fill you up. That was no fault of the restaurant's. I was the one conducting the culinary experiment. More recently, I always get the hamburger with collard greens on the side. The greens are cooked low and slow with pork. This place is so special, a Guy named Fieri ought to be made aware of it.

Andrades International Restaurant: (Way) South of the Border in Petersburg
I have to give thanks to the folks at the visitors centre for recommending this place to Jimmy and me. We had thought about going to Dixie Diner as I did when I brought David to Petersburg a year and a half before. When they said it offered South American cuisine, she didn't need to say any more. We gave it a try to see how authentic it was because Petersburg doesn't seem at first glance to be a place for international cuisine. The lady at the visitors centre talked up the taco salad. Jimmy and I have been to South America and we knew taco salad was Tex-Mex. It serves the cuisine of Mexico, Bolivia, Spain, and Peru. When we opened the door, the odour from the kitchen gave us the hint it was the real deal. Also, they were playing Latino music over the loudspeakers, some of which I was already familiar with. Our waiter was from El Salvador and he was very attentive and he knew about the food.
It is open 7 days a week for lunch and supper: 11am-9pm Sunday to Thursday; 11am-10:30pm
Favorite Dish: At many so-called Mexican restaurants, the complimentary tortilla chips and salsa are worth every penny. Not here. Not only are the chips fresh, but the salsa was perfect. At other places, the salsa is so hot it curls your toenails or it is dominated by cilantro or some other ingredient. It had us going for seconds. Because I'm not as thin as I used to be, I opted for the Brazilian salad. It consisted of micro greens, lettuce, tomato, onion, olives, avocado, hearts of palm, and grilled chicken. My only beef with this chicken salad is that there were a little too many micro greens and a bit too little of the "good" stuff. Not sure about the dressing, I had them put it on the side. It was rather like a garlic vinaigrette. Although the salad may have been a bit unbalanced, Andrades more than makes up for it in terms of the feel of a friendly neighbourhood Latin bistro in beautiful downtown Petersburg. I came back a second time with another friend. I had the Pollo Saltado (chicken breast sauteed with fresh tomato, ciliantro, green,red and yellow pepper, onion, scallons and a special Peruvian sauce).

I'm finding this problem to be pretty widely reported. I run wordpress multisite, which I think has a problem. I think that problem is described here. http://tommcfarlin.com/resolving-the-wordpress-multisite-redirect-loop/
Specifically, the problem is this:
Install WordPress and activate multisite
Configure the installation to use subdomains
Attempt to login and get stuck in a redirect loop
This is exactly what happened to me, on a 100% fresh wordpress install. I tried it several times, and after activating multisite the logins broke every time.
The fix they provide works for me, it involves adding the following to wp-config.php
define('ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH', '/');
define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');
define('COOKIEPATH', '');
define('SITECOOKIEPATH', '');
The problem I'm finding is that installing WordPress MU Domain Mapping, conflicts with the fix above, because it makes you comment out, or "remove define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');" - which in turn causes the redirect loop to come back.

About Me
To expand my tribe of connection with depth and laughter! Activate each other's creativity and Adventurous nature. Co-create a new society based on intuition, truth and empowerment, and, of course Free Will !
My main passion is the healing Arts, especially the practices that allows the alignment of the chacras through emotional healing-rebirthing/meditation/creativity/playing/laughing/Dancing/being our truest simple selves. I am not into "talking spirituality" much. I'd rather live life fully and being engaged in the physical/emotional way in an evolving way that naturally connects me to my spirit.
i also love to play like a wild cat..living life at it's fullest in my own way!
If you wonder what you could invite me to do, Dancing would be the 1st hint..than Hiking in a forest..then gathering around a fire and jamming...i can be in a forest and feel like i don't need to go anywhere else..Like it's home. Love waterfalls and walking dipping in the ocean at night.
I don't generally drink..i am already drunk from Agave spirit from the Island (meaning: already rocking with the boat)...and Art makes me already travel in many dimentions of my being!
Oh! And if there is a Art exhibit somewhere by an unknown Artist who expresses their soul with the blood of their passion, i am in!
I am lively/shy/ mature/extremely creative/ real/ truthful/ childlike/loves to be with simple real folks and adores different lifestyles and diets...on the sensitive side of the Body Types, so, mostly eat very simple and go with food combining...but enjoying being around al kinds of eaters.
Pow (done in pigon accent, Hawaiian slang) for now.
"i beg you... to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love to questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. and the point is, to live everything. live the questions now. perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer..." by Rainer Maria Rilke
Basicly, Feel, sense, and understand with experience.
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I am participating by surfing and hosting in a safe way, sharing my self in depth with folks, and help create a stronger world-wide community that thrives on truth/Free Will/ caring/ sharing/ healing/playing/creating.
CS is proving itself to be revolutionary and heart opening. I am definitely building a support group of folks i am trusting very much.
Forests, Music, Dancing, Art-Painting, Healing/evolving, Humor, Skipping on the streets, picnics, Timelessness in Nature/Hiking/paddle boarding/contemplating nature...being a Deer/elf again..
Human relations and communication/realness: reducing fakeness and painful fake smiles...spontaneity, Dancing everywhere!
Singing, singing and singing...
deepening the relationships i already have with all facets and creatures of life.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Sorry...I have way to many to say just one...
My Art has been an amazing life experience that has empowered me in learning about my beauty and power in the world.
I think and feel Chagall/Gauguin/van Gogh/Group of 7... are magiciens!
Emotional healing and rebirthing has turned my life around!
Swimming with Dolphins has taught me about community and caring, and showed me how long i can swim!
Being saved by Dolphins has made me feel the most loved by God!
Kayaking with Whales underneath me has brought my respect for life to an other level!
Seeing the Lava Rivers flow in the ocean has connected me with my passion to an other level. and seeing it flow down the mountain burning trees has showed me my terror of death.
Having a bear one feet away from me, eagles above, wolf tracks all around, a cougar freaking my dog, deers jumping gracefully and oceans taking me away, has affected me in ways that are indescribable!
Being with my cousin's children reminds me of what i really cherish in life.
Great Love for and from my parents even if i have a hard time being around them some times, shows me what love does.
The Hawaiien vibe and teachings (ho'oponopono) about how to live will for ever guide me towards what feels good.
The Quebequois roots vibe, and how deep it is in me.
Magick of manifestation, and how the magnetic force of the Will affects it is quite dazzzzling!
Couch surfing is changing my way of feeling in the world quite drastically!
More to write later....
Teach, Learn, Share
Painting/Arts in general. Allowing our bodies to move and dance more naturally! Spontaneity and realness. The magick of aligning chacras! Emotional healing. Singing, Jamming!...I give good massages.

Go Clark
| Guest chapter 1 . 7/29/2015
This is so romantic and a bit dark, too. Clark has 2 (perhaps even 3, cause who knows about Oliver's feelings for Clark) multi billionaires, who are menacing, brooding, and so in love with him. I'd be so friggin torn on whom to chose. Both are so handsome, so compelling, with great physiques, extremely smart, savvy and just drop dead sexy as hell. To be honest, we're I Clark/Superman, stud extraordinare, I'd be a greedy lil bottom and want Lex, Bruce and Oliver to be mine. All mine. No sharing. The 4 of us would be exclusive, with me taking those 3 studs cocks down my throat and up my ass as often as possible. I'd get these 3 alpha hunks to get along and learn to love each other as they do me. I'd have them kissing each other, sucking each other off, etc., but the only ass they'd ever plow would be mine... Clark/Superman.
| Angeline Luthor chapter 1 . 7/14/2015
| Guest chapter 1 . 6/10/2015
As the old adage goes, Brucie, baby, 'you don't know what you've got til' you've thrown it away.' You dumbass, Bruce. Plus the way you always treated Clark, getting all up in his hot ass, taking him til you bred him... wham, bam, thank you Superman (though apparently never a thank you even, Bruce... dumbass). You deserve to suffer the whole 'woulda, shoulda, coulda' bit, because hindsight is a nonexistent force for you here, Bruce... you dumbass.
On the flip side, Lex is one cool customer for certain, because he struck at a most fortuitous time, claiming Clark for himself. Personally, I think Clark Lex Forever is a forgone, 100% right way to go for these 2 men.
Now in a more idealistic fantasy realm, Clark would be married and belong to all 3 of these studly, hot billionaire 'bad boys,' Lex, Bruce and Oliver. They'd all live together forever, with our 3 billionaires topping Clark's oh so sweet, oh so tight and oh so hot Kryptonian ass and mouth as often as possible. It would be heaven on earth for these 4 gorgeous, beautifully handsome men, with the added bonus of the ever present, ever growing true love these 4 hunky stud muffins share.
Thanks for writing this splendid story and I hope you many years of happy writing, if you so desire.
| roseangel013 chapter 1 . 9/14/2014
you should totally make this a muti chapter story. so much more could go into this. if clark goes with bruce or lex. how willing is bruce to get clark back. what the rest of the team (oliver) thinks about this and what are they going to do. i promise that would be an amazing story
| DemeRain chapter 1 . 8/27/2014
Thanks for sharing.
| ThatDamnRabbit chapter 1 . 7/11/2014
Ooohhh, burn! I really liked this one. Never been a big Bruce x Kent type of gal, but it brings a new respect to the fandom in my eyes.
| Lilyth369 chapter 1 . 4/28/2014
Yay! Finally Lex wins!
Wiii! I love all of your fics! Thanks!
| silverdragon0315 chapter 1 . 7/18/2013
I quite liked this fic it was emotional and funny and I liked the scene at the end with him and bruce it hit home that sometimes you have to move on when u know it wont work and be willing to give something else a try i liked the definiteness of his no response no waffling he knew they were not together anymore for a good reason and he stuck to his guns kudos for him
| Izaya-Orihara's-Mikado chapter 1 . 5/5/2013
How could you could you just stop it there?! Keep going!
| Iceanddiamonds chapter 1 . 4/25/2013
Good start, wish there was more!
| Miss Twinkie chapter 1 . 3/13/2013
While I don't really like the fact that Clark got with Lex so fast after things ended with Bruce, and that he agreed to marry him when he doesn't love him, I'm really glad that Bruce learned his lesson. I wish Clark would have given him another chance to make things right though, because I'm romantic like that lol.
I really liked the whole thing though.
| MaestroANC chapter 1 . 12/1/2012
Please apply cold water to burnt area XDXDXDXD
Ooouuhhhh, that last line was a real slap to the face. I feel so proud of Clark right now :D
Thank you for making this story, it was really sweet :)
| dreamerswaking chapter 1 . 10/26/2012
Loved the ending. That last line. UNF. OMG I just loved this. Powerful and moving. I think a lot of people can relate to this. To how Clark was feeling. Have I mentioned that I loved this?
| Idris The Tardis chapter 1 . 6/21/2012
This story is awesome. I love how Clark throws Bruce's words back at him. Are you going to write a sequel? I would be interested in reading about lex and Clark's wedding and what Bruce does to try and stop it

The apartment can sleep a good sized crew with full kitchen and is very spacious. There was only one shower but an extra 1/2 bath. Great in summer and probably a nice ski trip apartment. Very updated but the single room we saw wasn't nearly as nice.
