Thread: ~ Clover vs. Coco

~ Clover vs. Coco
~ Our oldest child was named Cole Patrick, and then his little sister came along, and we named her Cate Maura after my mother, Catherine, and my mother-in-law, Mary, (Maura is the Irish form of Mary). We have decided to stick with the "C" theme and I would so LOVE to honor my Grandmother by having the middle name be Nell and I would like for the nick name to be as sweet as Cate's, which is "Kitty". My mother's nickname is "Cat", and so "Kitty" was a shoe in for her. So, the choices and their nicknames...in no particular order are:
~ Chloe Nell (nn Clover OR Coco)
~ Claire Nella (Irish form of Nell) (nn Clover)
~ Charlotte Nell (Honors BOTH Maternal Great Grandmothers) (nn Lottie, Tottie, Cookie)
~ Clover Nell (nn possibly Coco)
~ Coco Nell
~ Thanks SOOO much!!!

Re: ~ Clover vs. Coco
I feel strongly that you should NOT use Coco as the full name. It is a sweet nickname for a child, but not a name you would want on your resume as a grown woman.
Clover is another name that sounds cute for a little girl, but would probably be a difficult name to wear as an adult.
Chloe is not a name I particularly like, but plenty of people love this name and there's really nothing wrong with it, other than that it's a bit popular - I'm not sure Chloe Nell has the best flow, though.
Of your choices, I like Claire the best, but Claire Nell is rather abrupt.
Some other suggestions:
Charlotte Nell* (I think this has a great flow, and the nickname Lottie is adorable, esp with sister Kitty)
Caroline Nell (the n's do run into each other a bit, but I think it has a nice flow otherwise, and Caroline could be shortened to Cara)
Corinna Nell (you could get the nickname Coco or Cora out of this)Mom of one daughter, age 2, and name-enthusiast

Re: ~ Clover vs. Coco
~ That is SOOO Ironic...I had considered Charlotte Nell, as like my first daughter's name, was orchestrated to honor her Grandmother's, Charlotte Nell would honor Both Maternal "Great Grandmother's", however, I was sad that Charlotte did not have that same "C" sound as Cole and Cate, but thanks for your interest in that name combo...I will go ahead and add it to the list for others to consider as well!

Re: ~ Clover vs. Coco
Let me list you some more choices for C names with a K sound ^^
* by my favourites:
Camomile (odd, I know...)
Cosima* (or Cosme)
Clyde* (Tori Amos put this name on a girl, I haven't thought of it as a boy name since, although most people would...)
Also, Nameberry has Coel listed as a variant of Colleen, but I think it's a lot nicer in fact ^^ Maybe Coelle to make the pronunciation more intuitive? I'm not usually one for inventing names, but Coelle is pretty cute... Hmmm...
Anyway, best of luck!Åshild | lover of books & baked goods

Perfect Size!
"I was a little apprehensive about buying a purse online. I'm so small and petite, and the styles are so much larger now. Doing my homework paid off, and this was the perfect size. It looks expensive and is very durable. I like it because it doesn't close in on itself, making it easy to find things. Will probably buy the light colored one too!"

A man credited with saving tens of millions of lives died earlier this month in virtual obscurity. Just a few newspapers in Scotland recorded his passing. But for some of us who work in global health, Sir John Crofton was a hero.
Sir John, a humble, determined, Irish-born physician, pioneered the six-month treatment schedule for tuberculosis that we still use around the world today. His search for answers, his research, led, the way to what we have today, a massive decline in the numbers of people dying from TB.
When he returned from the battlefields of WWII to Edinburgh, a TB diagnosis was a virtual death sentence. Multi-drug antibiotic therapy didn't become available until the 1950s. Even then, it was available only to small numbers of patients mostly in rich countries, and it required 18 months of painful, toxic, injected treatment.
Sir John, and a small number of colleagues, changed this by cutting the duration of treatment by two-thirds, to six months. This created the possibility of widespread treatment delivery, not only in the UK but around the world.
Since 1993, when the WHO declared tuberculosis a "Global Health Emergency", an estimated 30 million people have been treated with the successor to the treatment he devised. TB remains a formidable foe, however, with 9 million new cases of TB occurring each year and more than 2 million people dying. At least a half-million people have a form of TB that cannot be cured by Sir John's combination therapy: Why? Because the bacteria living and proliferating in these patients are resistant to those drugs. These patients face 18 to 24 months of toxic, injected therapy. Some also require lengthy, complex surgery to remove diseased lung tissue, an intervention that is all too often unavailable in the poor settings where TB is most common.
One of those places is Lima, Peru, where I was visiting just last week and have worked for many years. Influenced by Sir John's example, the non-governmental organization Partners In Health and the Peruvian Ministry of Health initiated a treatment program for these resistant forms of TB in 1996.
With dozens of partners from the international community, and generous external funding initially, this collaboration has helped more than 10,000 patients advance through treatment for resistant TB. Patients receive nutritional, financial, and social support to facilitate the difficult-to-tolerate treatment process. Since 2000, more than 400 have also undergone surgery, reportedly the largest such group in the world. Despite these aggressive interventions, analyses reveal that it's very difficult to cure more than 70 percent of these patients.
On the day of Sir John's funeral, I visited a surgery ward in Lima where I met two such patients; both had been on treatment for resistant TB for more than a year. Both were awaiting surgery: a 27-year-old engineering student for his first operation, and a 54-year old industrial refrigeration worker his second. The young patient had been hospitalized, in anticipation of his surgery, for three months.
He stood weakly before me, his thin frame slightly hunched, a tube draining fluid from his chest into a glass jug held on a makeshift, wooden cart that was just inches off the floor. This young man didn't complain about his treatment, the delay to surgery, or even the difficulty of breathing.
I wondered how Sir John would have reacted, both as a clinician and activist. This patient, and millions like him, entirely blameless, has essentially been relegated to the pre-antibiotic era of more than 60 years ago. His 18 months of toxic treatment have failed to vanquish his disease.
Why? This is a consequence of decades of neglect of research in TB: No new anti-TB drugs have been developed since the 1960s. Diagnostic tests date to the 19th century; they are slow and not very accurate. Surgery, without which some patients' disease will never be cured, is rarely available; this is due to an estimated funding gap in global resources required for TB control of $1 billion each year.
Sir John Crofton is laid to rest, but his passing should ignite in those who remain his determination to bring effective treatment to patients with all forms of TB. I am hopeful that dedicated global health research, and committed health care workers, will lead the way for the next breakthroughs in beating back this ancient disease.

In Memoriam
On November 6, 2014, Science Olympiad lost a 30-year veteran, Tim Taylor, to sudden illness. Tim served from his home state of Ohio as a teacher, coach, Event Supervisor and tournament committee member and at the national level as an Event Supervisor, Inquiry Rules Committee member, tournament committe member and long-time Advisory Committee member. In 1998, Tim was awarded the Science Olympiad Distinguished Service Award, and was an attendee of nearly every Science Olympiad Summer Institute on record, often serving as a presenter and mentor to new coaches. Many consider Science Olympiad to be a family, and Tim was certainly part of ours. Deepest condolences are extended to Tim's family, where he was a beloved son, brother and uncle. We are all blessed to have known a man of such high character who gave so much to science education.


text: I read the "Is it bad so many of the best Top 250 are over 10%?" thread and it got me to thinking - how about a top session beer list? A list of the most highly rated beers below 5.0% ABV - here is the BA definition. session beer n. Any beer that contains no higher than 5 percent ABV, featuring a balance between malt and hop characters (ingredients) and, typically, a clean finish - a combination of which creates a beer with high drinkability. The purpose of a session beer is to allow a beer drinker to have multiple beers, within a reasonable time period or session, without overwhelming the senses or reaching inappropriate levels of intoxication. (Yes, you can drink and enjoy beer without getting drunk.) It would not matter the style of beer, just highly rated and below the ABV. BTW, the current site does not allow one to sort a top list by ABV.

"Indian Accent"
Hear the whispers inside
Chanting from long ago
Echoes come and go
Losing time in a soft eternal glow
A beautiful and delicate autumn mountain scene
Dry blue eyes enchanting melodies!
Voices fall from the sky; -Rising hymns release
-ancient demons that CLING to the soul
Darkness dwells under - gentle moonlight
Ancestors of the Spirit World!
Weaving Native smoke into the barren air
Indian spirits haunt the muddy Earth---
Moccasin makers rise from underneath; While
guardians of dream catchers - print the Universe
Smooth thread from the outer world;
Arrowheads, Ivory gems, feathers, and illusions
I stumble upon a florid kiss....... My veins;
Run Cold, like ice through a desert night.
Winds of enchanted drums - cry out for rain
Hollow chimes mesmerize, my ties, my eyes
An ancient rage begins to flare --- MADNESS!
- takes place among the sanity of who I am
The spear of the perfumed buffalo scrapes my skin
I remove the veil that covers my eyes
The hands that cover my ears
Drying the scalp that bleeds on my face
Raven silk braids and feathers on my hair
Dancing in a horrid hallucination of Peyote,
Waking up from the "American Dream."
Holding out my arms, I am free, I can fly.

-Quarantine of the Soul-
Tranquil pills fall deep like the night
A sweet fangless course
Bites with no remorse
Your eyes struggle to read my ageless soul
You open a heart under Quarantine
The past
The present
The future
Stand in the way of what was and never will be
A contagious disease
I call "LOVE!"
(Past-- you came)
Somewhere deep inside --with you--
The Maverick
The Majestic
The Arriving Vessel of Light
I separated myself from the world
--to be with you--
I polished a new diamond night
With pleasures of meeting where our hearts began
Deep like the night, you woke my sleepless soul
Removing it from the safe harbor of the sea
-Isolated from all to see
No risk or chance, of smiling endlessly
(Present-- you set)
Tonight you fell from Mandalay
You spoke in a way that Cut my throat with truth
You detained my ego clouding the auspices sky
Allowing a smile
A tender peek into your heart
It spread in ways -- I wanted more
I kept deep until you found your way past the door
Persistent memories
In search of eternity
Tonight lets learn to live again
With no fear, I remove all labels
Making the moon and sun rise together
My love, my life now depends on you
(Future-- you left)
With no explanation
The age of Quarantine will forever set
You came to me
Set me free
Just to leave
Now you are a virus --- Just like them!!!

The End
Seeing through these cold dead eyes now,
This world looks much different.
The scars of one's life entire,
Appear now for all to see.
What once meant everything,
Really means nothing now.
I still see and sense things mortal,
But the earthly world can't hear my words.
Lying on an ice-cold white slab this darkest night,
I see the pale yellow moon's sad face in the sky.
With visions of people who've crossed over before,
I wonder when Charon shall finally appear?
Shall it be him who appears on this new horizon?
Or shall it be someone or something else?
The everyday mortal world moves on as before:
Regardless of one's wealth, poverty, fame, shame, infamy.
I guess now all the ancient mysteries of the universe,
Shall become obvious and answered in kind.
I wonder what shall be said to me and the reception?
Thumbs up or thumbs down—I guess I shall find out.
The pale yellow moon now appears brighter . . .
As if a special message cometh soon from a winged angel.
Hope this helps to answer my lingering questions . . .
As the dark void from the mortal world grows greater now.
I feel a gentle tug pulling me upward now from Earth's grasp,
Into the majestic arms of infinity and into God's eternal light!

Love's Alchemy is Eternal
Your look, touch, and scent now so perfect pure,
Enchants my true emotions and soaring passion.
I knoweth now our love shall always endure,
As God unites our souls as one by divine action!
Our sensual passion defines love's spirit entire,
As we caress and kiss for this moment's bliss.
Love's alchemy maketh our spirits soar afire,
As we embrace our lips find that deepest kiss!
Our hearts beat now in a sacred tempo of love,
That reflects our real destiny, two souls as one.
This is God's gift to us from Heaven high above,
As we wish these magic moments of eternal fun!
By Heaven, I pray our love's alchemy forever,
And declareth my love shan't leave you ever!

Snow -
a sleep
descending on the twilight streets;
Snow, in silent fields you lie pristine
beneath moon's glow, a blanket shimmering.
Oblivion serene!
Tranquilly envelop me in
Sleep -
a snow;
the more you fall, the deeper that I go
Oh, sweet Slumber,
suffocate with pearly flakes
those of us the weary that repose,
long time having waited like the windrows.
As Boreas does blow,
lull and bury all in drifting, dreamy
Writer's Statement: In this poem, I have gone ahead and given a title that shows both the theme of nature and what it is a metaphor of. I think it just "sounds" better to write "Snow-a sleep" and then in the second half, I reverse it and write "Sleep - a snow." I think of sleep as a wonderful time when we can totally let go of our tensions and relax as if we were beneath "moon's glow" in "a blanket shimmering" We literally are under our blankets when we sleep, and in the same way that snow covers the ground, our dreams are blanketing us in "oblivion serene." In the middle of the poem, I liken "falling to sleep"to when snow keeps falling and falling and we, like falling snow, go "deeper" into slumber. I like the sound of "sweet Slumber" together, and so I address sleep that way toward the end of this poem. In the same way that snow buries the ground, the "pearly flakes" of sleep can "lull and bury all in drifting, dreamy snow."

Walking through the land of shadows
wearing my yellow shoes
With each and every step
I created color and hues
The shadows started retreating
As color permeated the ground
Out of the shadowy darkness
I heard a horrible sound
"You do not belong here
I command you to go away
You are in the land of darkness
You must listen to what I say"
I kept on moving forward
Not sure what I would see
Where was the voice coming from
I looked behind a tree
Light and color expanded
Traveling up straight to the skies
The entity that so scared me
Was right before my eyes
As my shoes banished the darkness
The entity was reduced to tears
Without the aid of shadows
He couldn't tap into my fears
I then reached down to touch him
I told him that he was safe
He looked up with confusion
As I gazed upon his face
"Are you here to destroy me?
Have you come to take me away?
There is a purpose for shadows
They create hope for brighter days."
I heard what he was saying
The shadows have their reason
In order for spring to come
We need a darker season
So I removed my yellow shoes
Watched as the shadows returned
It was time for me to go home
With this strange lesson I had learned

Well hopefully you've read the last "Poetry for Poets", now here's the one I wanted to write, enjoy...
(I own this- edition)
more organic than fertilizer
rooted in the shit of life
Some grow wild
seeking their light
through a gnarled thicket
of images
and symbolism.
Ill watered
or sprayed with chemical defoliants
they strangle themselves,
managing to blossom.
Poems thoughtfully precisely planted
to achieve optimum yield
though occasionally
poems require to be forged
beaten into shape
like a horse shoe
with a few holes
accurately placed
ensuring they will be nailed
to their purpose
dead words and metaphors
selectively snipped away
stunning display
There are times when it's best to live with your poetry
Cover yourself with its words until they stretch and become sloppery
For its comfort increases as the stanzas begin to fray
Patched elbows illuminating what you intend to say
And eventually you'll have a poem to slip into by the fire
To savour with hot chocolate as it ignites your desire
more organic than fertilizer
flourish when tendered
with love

There's a chilly air where it used to shine
There's a misty breeze through the purple vine.
In a fading summer tick-tock sounds
move backwards marking every hour
Darkness falls down slowly upon each longer night
Stealing beewax gold of sunset's soft -glow light.
Against total eclipse, Foliage silhouettes make their return back
Bringing to his arms a Lunar death ... Her death.
Along empty walks, earthy drops drizzle regret
Regret with every footstep and heavy inward breath
Regret... Drops Thunder... Thunder and death
Death ! Dead ! Gone .. Gone....
Or does She live in his forevermore
Is that her reflection mirroring affection
Is it her hidden face that glistens in the lake
Is that the crescent moon that once showed him the way
A way to feel to feel again what it is like to dance and sway
Sway to lilting music nobody else could hear
to flow adrift in silent pause ,knowing She' s still there.
Knowing she is with him hovering in dreams,
beaming radiant shadows all over his cheeks
Believing She'll get closer without owning his lips
Because their bond was deeper than just a simple kiss.

Devils deadly dime
The sign said no grown-up at the playground.
Tripping on a penny, like a mime!
My hand is in my pocket with the dime I found.
Its all mine, I asked for the devils hand that time.
Echoes in my head, bounded by a screaming sound.
Paying for a forgotten crime,
on what comes around goes around.
A prison with greed that carries an evil musical chime.
Jumping off the merry-go-round!
Encouraged by the devil,
the pleasure of his deadly nursery rhyme.
Now the world is measured by my blood level.
The devils delight feasted on my youth before I hit my prime.
Bashing my mind, with thoughts implanted by evil.
Entering the day with no beauty to my sublime.
Begging him to remove this anvil!
He laughed while he cursed me with a favor for a favor.
A fallout so violently in this world not civil.
One can only lust on the taste that only he can savor.
Hanging out by the swings wounding me with prey,
on two victims to his delicious flavor.
I climb my way to teach a lesson in hate not love.
Two siblings who always scream for each other.
Giggling as I offered each a push and a shove.
Stopping they give each other a big hug.
Defeating and proving love is a stronger disease
The devil wicked eyes looking at me like a bug.
Clawing at my inner guts with remorse that he will win this war.
Until another day one skips the penny,
and begs a poor fool like the devil for his dime.
Tossing heads for his tail when times hits rock bottom.
I will stray away from his deadly reaction time.
He will not own my soul so freak'em,
and his greedy deadly beg of a dime.

The wonder of nature you describe with the color of feelings
that even the blind sees the beauty, for you anoint with your sight.
From my forgotten core, words you inspire gush forth in indignant prose
like the lion who protects her young, who roars in warning lest she devour.
You lend me insight from your wisdom and give me laughter with your wit,
you pump the pulse in my veins when passion and sensuality is lit.
You kindle the fire in this heart when love is found
and collect the ash from the burnt cinder that haunts, when love is lost.
You hold my breath in exhilaration when I soar to triumphant heights,
the balm that soothes my pain when I'm down, your song remains
the solace I have found when life is hard, and the one profound
expression of the myriad emotions that defy words of common use.
O Poetry, you bring tears to my eyes, when in your lines I feel God cries
as I endure and withstand the ugliness, the haughtiness, of someone's pride.
Yet with the turn of page and time, you coax from my lips such radiant smile
for with each stage in this life of mine, a poem is birthed, flutters, and flies.

In silence an eagle soars,
as vapours carry him higher,
through overcast horizons.
It is not afraid of its scorn,
as the storm's temperament
only gives him more power.
With fear, comes courage,
in adversity, evolution of character.
An eaglet becomes an eagle,
only when it has learnt to handle a storm.
In the realms of pain,
when each heartbeat
bleeds speechless tears,
when words are suffocated,
submerging you into uncharted waters;
LISTEN - for every ache and agony
is the provenance of wisdom.
With suffering, empathy is born.
Turbulence in life is like a dandelion:
once dried petals have fallen,
it flourishes into a full sphere.

Rise Above It - Poetry Contest by Becca Teagan
Contest judged: 17 June 2016
Eagles love a the storm. When clouds gather, the eagles get excited. The eagle uses the storm s winds to lift it higher. Once it finds the wing of the storm, the eagle uses the raging storm to lift him above the clouds. This gives the eagle an opportunity to glide and rest its wings. In the meantime all the other birds hide in the leaves and branches of the trees. We can use the storms of life to rise to greater heights. Achievers relish challenges and use them profitably.

In the silent breathing of night,
treading through
the darkness and the hush
(A heavy band of slave)
like black ants snaking
through the forlorn distance.
Grieving with tears
Of yesterdays burning anguish.
They hum a languid song
On the fragrant breath of wind.
A haunt that invades my trembling eyes
With a thousand boundless tears
That quivers through the night.
The dreaded echoes came down the black pathway
Like a thousand men
Galloping through the sultry breeze
(Were the heartless whips that toiled)
With dumb hands,
Feeding paled pink flesh
With endless stings of cruel misery.
The stars curled around their naked feet
As they trampled the grass
Wet with lurid dew and the masked
Beds of fragrant hues
Prancing in the hallowed night.
I could feel the storming of their sorrows,
The rock of their heart
Drooping with defeat.
Despair a master to their fading hope
That sailed across their faces.
Oh those foul notes budding with despair
Branched within their eyes.
The lulling whispers of their shackles
United with their treading feet like hooves
Cloaked with heavy weariness
(It surrounded the dead of night)
I hung up my fears
For I was bright with their pain
Oh I died that day
Oh I died that day
While drifting to the helpless East
To that damp cold earth filled
With drowsy mournful Asters
Then the smell of dead men came alive
Black dogs clustered to the earth
Their children beside them with gripping hands!

*Based on Plato's Allegory of the Cave
Numb fists with bloody wrists
chained to crumbling walls.
Glazed eyes that never spy
a single truth or fault.
Dim light impairing sight
in spaces dark and shallow.
Stone walls where lies are scrawled
by murky phantom shadows.
One breaks free on frail knees
stiffened by disuse,
to leave behind the dumb and blind
who welcome this abuse.
He climbs in pain against the grain
toward a distant light.
With bloodied hands, he finally stands,
exhausting all his might.
Dazed at first, he's cursed by thirst
beneath the blazing sky.
The sun is bright and plunders sight
from eyes too dry to cry.
Lesions crust as eyes adjust
to find a foreign land
with greenest grass and sea like glass
caressing strips of sand.
He stands amazed before this maze
of truths he's never seen
and vows to save those in the cave
whose ignorance demeans.
When he returns, his words are spurned
by those chained to the wall.
They have no will to brave that hill
or risk the chance to fall.
He cannot go back to this show
of living shadowed lies.
Now that he knows the truth below,
he needs the open skies.
And so he climbs to search, to find
the knowledge that he craves.
No more a slave to the dark cave.
He's left that mindless grave.

-Dear, Mr & Mrs Poet-
Do you ever question where it comes from?
This poem's about you, sit down and get a load off
Tranquilize your pen, take heed to the ecstatic applause
The things in life we take for granting, in time get worse
From WHICH' our lives transverse, ascends a deep poetic curse
You write almost everything, rehearsing every living verse
Embezzling words, like Martha Stewart, ---NOT YOURS!
Withdrawing from your substance,
--yielding it to others, who aren't devoted lovers
Spacing your lines, ready for reader's digest,
Educating the mind, like Albert Einstein
You paint a different horizon for the color blind,
Drop a note, forecasting the news, that brings, Spring to mind
Your adrenaline, leaves people with a feel good faint.
At this level, Poet you're better than high speed Internet,
Anything that makes you feel this is the real deal,
Today, you write like there's no tomorrow, borrowing yesterday's clay
Inspiring ink, left to right, feeding the need to breed a poetic degree
Your dramatic dialogue, deserve 'The Peoples Choice award."
I love the sweet audio, when you lowercase every word
It's done so well, hell, let's never capitalize another word
Reaching a point across, when capitalizing every letter,
This is your world, take it, manipulate it, with the perfect stanza
Produce it like a poetic film, imagery, action, CUT it like Jerry Bruckheimer
One day Hollywood will incite a roll, looking for the best poetry soup rhymer
Your tears and affection, you pour on partial paper,
Showing every word you want to enunciate
A SHOULDER-- gone cold, drowning, forgetting the normal way
Writing about the pure religion that meets your light,
A beautiful flower under the moonlight
Hear the bells, Poe wrote about, adding sprinkles to the twinkle in your eyes,
A redolent scent not meant to be forgotten, from Eden's garden
Taking nature, by course, granting her a crown, before slamming us down
I will call her out --The evil and the fury of a goddess, a beast
This is my feast, I welcome you to my jungle, and the outer bounds of time.
If you ever question where it comes from?
Sit down and get a load off, listen---Where's the ecstatic applause?
I'm not afraid to say, -----I'm Proud to be A Poet Without A Cause
I do it for fun

Inside a knowledge turning cogs on this wheel
born from the darkness a heart rules supreme
fear in one wish looking towards tunnel light love
All that will remain when all turns to dust threads of life dance
kneeling weak alone humble and meek finding a balance
Weeping rivers flow haunting sea waves turn the key
truth is something beautiful touching deeply chords
Chilling whispers rise warm oasis warmly embraces hold
creeping inside beauty beams within shadows
Dancing starlight kissing ocean reflections twinkle
sparkle glisten teardrops coldly ripple out
Floating on a cloud of breath precious beauty
a mystery that means something special
finest mother of pearl gem coloring rainbow jewel shines forever
Frozen dew quicksilver lining echoes time answers always
cold as ice crystals dazzling diamond stillness pure
Frosted vision clear cutting ivory white one cool snowflake falls
baptism in regal glowing crowning full face splendor enchants a ball
walking along golden strands looking across the sea midnight strikes
Sleepless nights held over and back destiny calls your name
utopia faraway dreaming our love complete

The King of Sanctimonious
Perched high upon his throne-ious
Clothed in purple pious-ness
Admired his own self-righteous-ness
The Queen of Sanctimonious
Tired of the King's baloney-ous
When he counts his hoards of money
To him, sweeter than his honey
In a court that wasn't courteous
The Queen cried, "you're oblivious!"
But he wasn't aware, nor did he care
He'd become a Royal hypocrite
Day after day, he counted each coin
The ritual put a flutter in his groin
Reveling in his Royal room
Soon became his tomb of gloom
The Royal epitaph was no baloney-ous
When the king was found
'Tis said he drowned
In a fermented bottle of loneliness

Lapis lazuli mines with wide blue eyes
bringing to mind precious stones and
caramel scones; innocent and wise -
Wondering, yet without surprise.
Staring down the universe, a challenge
in your look though you are young;
The earth made only nine revolutions
since you came out to see the sun.
Unguarded and arched, your brows
betray high wire tension; enough
to light up a hundred moons and warm
plump cheeks to cherry bubble gum.
Be not impatient to grow; you smell
of open grasshopper meadows
and firefly lighted lakeshore walks.
You're a mother's envy and pride.
Red lips! Your passion for life exists.
Scarlet, lipstick would be a surfeit -
Today as then till many summer's been,
your spirit will always be free as the mist.

The Old Dark House
This tale of "The Old Dark House" is one that's replete with a
most horrid sense of pure evil and macabre, and is worth being
retold each year during the deep-dark hours of All Hallows' Eve
before the chime of midnight, when the thin veil separating the
land of the living and the dead momentarily dissolves, bringing
both worlds together until the break of dawn.
Beware of this house's mythical and ethereal presence in the
shadow dreams of the innocent, and be forewarned to never
conjure its image in your unconscious mind. If so conjured,
The Old Dark House shall become an unending reality to the
innocent and uninformed, and on All Hallows' Eve, the evil
"Demons of Hell" shall come for your very soul!
The Old Dark House is one that is bathed and cursed in utter
hellfire and damnation by Lucifer himself. It's one that creeps a
chill and frozen reminder into the very frame of its nasty, putrid
structure. It shall guarantee you the worst possible nightmares as
your very soul cries in agony and pleads unrelentingly for mercy!
Your nightmares are, in turn, amplified and born into the very
structure of this house with ivy creeping as you palpably sense
the wretched ice-cold fingers of Hell opening the doors to the
cavernous basement were evil shadows of goblins, ghosts,
ghouls, vampires, and werewolves parade openly from past lives.
Everyone suffering the curse of the damned was captured here
when they visited, becoming prisoners to the darkness of true evil,
far away from the light, goodness, and eternal mercy of Almighty
God Himself.
Six generations of my family actually dwelled beneath the rafters
of The Old Dark House where demonic forces were constantly in
play—as hot sparks burned the tongues of lost souls who cried in
agony, and their world would enter the vortex of darkness whilst
blood-curdling screams could be distinctly heard during the night
on All Hallows' Eve. Ghostly images would appear out of nowhere
supported by the frightening ferocity of Lucifer who is the true dark
presence and ultimate tempter of mankind!
The horror I felt as a young boy trapped in this existence is truly
unimaginable. The image of The Old Dark House still haunts my
adult consciousness, even today, as I would shudder in the cold
night-sweat of sleep to purge its eternal presence from my mind!
Cruel pictures adorn the hell-hole hall of imagination as a gruesome
and unbelievable power underneath wields its vice-grip of hideous
words, whispering in the coldest of ice without the living being able
to breathe in a cloud of mercy and forgiveness, within an ancient
language of evil and evil-doings that twist the shape of words to
suit one's human fears and cold shivers!
I still don't understand the full measure of things being lost in this
dark pit of Hell in The Old Dark House. It's a place that's devoid
of human meaning and worth as shrunken heads are disembodied!
I hold on to what remains of a past shame, hovering high in the air
as unclean spirits of a crooked vision-circle wander aimlessly as a
Blind Sheppard leads our lost souls to the depressing Dark Land of
Nowhere and Nothingness!
Every October as the full moon rises high in the dark-sky evening,
a ritual fire is set by a local coven of witches to celebrate the advent
of All Hallows' Eve. These witches know well the power and evil of
The Old Dark House. Their burnt offerings and black magic spells
echo hauntingly as Hell's own fury is unearthed, challenging all
things virtuous in mankind's existence and in God's world of beauty,
hope, kindness, and light.
These evil images of black magic and witchcraft haunted my sleep
entire. I couldn't sleep at all before dawn. I constantly sense now
an awakening madness in my soul, as if it comes from hidden graves
yet to be uncovered. Images and bad memories of The Old Dark House
push me now toward the opening of unknown tombs. I can actually
now smell Death's Sulphur-burnt flesh!
Doors begin to rustle behind me as I hear loud footsteps of a pin
echoing deep in my mind. The echo shatters any illusions I have
of human sanity and forgiveness. I feel the sheer horror and begin
suffocating as the stale air is trapped in each breath I take!
I sit up now—immediately confused, looking directly at a lonely
and empty Black Void that goes on and on and on—to infinity!
Cell doors in the house basement were always closed tight with
rusted iron links bound by heavy chains. As a poor child alone in
this house with other condemned children, there were nice rooms
upstairs that were always barred and shut to us as we suffered in
the filthy basement below. In Lucifer's Hell!
I recall now too, in my memory, a gallery of special portraits in
The Old Dark House, which formed a ghastly mosaic of pure evil.
These portraits were of key human disciples of Lucifer who had served
him well through the ages. All of these images were grotesque and evil
when taken as a whole.
What did I learn? Evil is what Evil is! And Evil does what Evil does!
I'm free now from the eternal curse of The Old Dark House. I escaped
this mansion of the macabre as a young man and found my soul path
to Almighty God and stepped into His holy light of forgiveness and
As a very old man now, I sleep and dream a lot. Usually my dreams,
thank goodness, are pleasant as I draw toward the end of my mortal
existence here on earth.
Yet, despite all the good things in my life now, during October of
each year, as All Hallows' Eve cometh closer in the deep recesses
of my mind—I remember clearly that the ground floor of The Old
Dark House always had these frigid-cold wind gusts that spoke
chillingly to one's very soul. As young kids we would run upstairs
in this evil house to hear the "Demons of the Night" moan and cry!
Old Hob always had a way to speak to all of us as kids in His House!

Leaves talking, beautiful demise
If a leaf could talk, it would say, please, take your time
life is acted out in stages, every song has it's rhyme
When a leaf dies, its dynamic impressions in its flight
a stunning display of artistry, dazzling to the sight
Green turns to crimson, flaming tangerine and gold
a leaf's transforming demise is a beauty to behold
As sap runs dry, youthful vitality turns evanescent
the beauty of a leaf's demise is resplendent iridescence
A leaf's downfall, granted, is a casualty of the season
it's journey into oblivion, is transfixing beyond reason
When a leaf, takes its leave, exits gracefully the scene
We're left breathless with the vision, an event to be seen

Bright yellow sparks glisten around the landscape
Sheer environment expose
Warmth slinks down every step
So-- Invigorating
Spur like rays muster in long light
The wolves wait to howl
Soon--Bunch of flowers
Huddle in with sunlit love

She writes about Fall's beauty in the rain
The falling raindrops' dance ascribing thence
Bespoken verse that lightens her refrain
before the time they met - her steps commence.
She listens to the soft and rhythmic thrum,
her love turned to escape and cloudy string
Where nimbus mistletoe fell, tears to become
Their kiss of Autumn was symbolic ring.
The first light cotton mists with summer rays
While skyward cheerful laughs adorn the land,
their ceremonial dance diffuses grays,
affectionate embrace, where dreams expand.
Upon September's sky the raindrops gleam
With half of hidden Sun to laugh and beam.

Fool of Infiniti
A wanton bird pecks at the stars
A Jester peers through crystal bars
This prison of love with rainbow hue
Illusion parts to lets you through
On dragon wings forever free
You quest into your dreams to see
Smoke and mirrors and shadow haze
To guide you through an endless maze
Slow motion tear rolls down her cheek
Its only passion that you seek ?
Engulfed in strange duality.
She wonders her reality
Your eyes still mock her with desire
Your kisses light her inner fire
Your touch can melt her to your will
But you will never take your fill
Black widow spider guards your heart
She spun the web, she keeps it taut
It is your only fatal flaw.
A secret, silent metaphor.
And all about her swirl the dreams
The nightmares all with voiceless screams
And in her hand the strangest key
To fit the door of What Will Be ?
And when her eyes search yours again
You take her to the spider den
You spin the dreams she hopes to see
And lock your hearts in mystery.
So enter in to lick the flame
Eternal prisoner of the game
Illusion is false imagery
She whispers your Infinity
The Queen of Fate
The Queen of Fate by the outer Gate
Her carriage to Nowhere, will await
Her cloak is wrapped against the night
Her eyes are wide with peculiar fright
Gray horses eyes turn back in fear
With thunderclaps upon her ear
Blue jagged lightning points the way
Along the path to yesterday
Cold, sullen driver cracks his whip
His crooked smile curls round his lip
His horses leap the cruel abyss
Dark Queen of Fate sees none amiss
Above the mist a gate appears
Who will wipe the Gate-man's tears ?
Gray horses strike and paw the air
Fate Queen ascends the carriage stair
And all about her swirl the dreams
The nightmares all with voiceless screams
And in her hand a wondrous key
To lock Enigma's Mystery
Pass through the gate O Queen of Fate
Another carriage will await
Drawn by Steeds of Promises
Illusion Starts and Finishes

The Arc'teryx Men's Keibo jacket is my favorite ski/snowboarding jacket this season. I honestly can't find a better jacket than this and I am so stoked that I have the opportunity to rock this all winter long. I was super happy with my Arc'teryx Micon jacket (the Keibo's more insulated big brother) from last season and used that as a benchmark for this year, but the Micon had a few drawbacks that the Keibo addresses and improves upon (for me). The Keibo is less insulated than the Micon for warmer days and the arm length is longer which is perfect for my ape length arms. I do still however recommend the Micon jacket for people who don't want to layer much or just like added insulation. Your call.
The Keibo jacket is clearly an investment piece at $750 and not for the faint of heart or light of wallet. I know that this will instantly take it out of contention for most mortals, but if you can somehow get your hands on this jacket, you'll have the best piece of outerwear this season. The incorporated 3-Layer GORE-TEX Pro fabric is lightweight, durable, breathable and waterproof, while the ideal amount of Coreloft insulation is utilized so that you don't always need to rely on a mid-layer. This reduces bulk and extra pieces of gear which I find to be a huge advantage. The only negative thing that I can say about this jacket is that there are no wrist gaiters. I am a fiend for wrist gaiters, but can overlook them not being featured on the Keibo since everything else is perfect.
I absolutely love that Arc'teryx cuts their new freeride pieces longer, with a more contemporary relaxed fit. The articulated elbows and no-lift gusseted underarms create no lifting of the jacket or shortened sleeve length when you raise your arms (this is a major problem for most jackets) The Keibo's cut also ensures that you get a full range of motion and that you won't get any unexpected air drafts. Short, tight jackets are for old people who like to complain about being cold. I am absolutely amped on the styling of this jacket (it looks better than any other jacket I've seen this year), the fact that every material used is top of the line and that the performance is bar none. If you can swing the price, buy this jacket. Then, spring for the Sabre Full Bib pants and have the best kit ever.

|Repository access and other questions
|Mon, 03 Nov 2008 00:30:47 GMT
I have been taking a look at Jackrabbit for a project that we have coming down the road and have a few questions. Is their a restful way to access a repository? I have looked at the what was contained in the servlet jar but did not see anything that fit the bill. I have played around with the WebDav access but I think this will be too slow for our purposes. I have also looked at Sling but feel that it is too immature at the moment for our use. Has anyone attempted to create restful access? Also has anyone had any luck with using a web service to access a repository? How does Jackrabbit perform under heavy loads? The system that we would be looking at using Jackrabbit with would have many readers and potentially many writers. Peak hour access would be somewhere in the neighbor hood of 900K + hits. Is anyone out there using Jackrabbit in a high volume setting? And my final question. We have a concern about scalability. From the deployment models it would seem that we are looking at model 3. How does this work if I have multiple Jackrabbit servers behind a load balancer mounted to the same repository? I am still learning to walk with this but think I have seen enough to see my areas of concern. Any feedback appreciated. Regards, Bill

About Diastasis Recti
If your abs seem to only get worse when you do crunches, sit ups or planks…
If your belly button mysteriously became an outie when it was always an innie…
If your lower back always bothers you, or you constantly "throw your back out"…
If you pee your pants every time you sneeze, cough, laugh, stand up, sit down…
If you have ever had abdominal surgery and your core connection is still cut…
If you've ever given birth and your middle still feels muddled…
If you always feel like a limp noodle, and you have to prop yourself up…
If you have any of those symptoms {or ALL of them} then you might also have another symptom of a weak core called diastasis recti abdominus, and it's time to let Fit2B help you workout safer and smarter.
How To Check Your Belly For Diastasis Recti
Watch these Two Short Videos
We have two videos that will help you learn how to check yourself for diastasis recti. Both videos were filmed by Fit2B Studio in cooperation with licensed physical therapist and core rehabilitation expert, Kelly Dean, owner of The Tummy Team. One is a short video that shows you a self-check for diastasis recti. The longer video explores the BIG PICTURE of what a diastasis recti means to your life {it's not a death sentence, dear ones} while also showing how to check for transverse abdominus recruitment and more!
The Basic Self-Check
Longer Self-Check & The Big Picture
If you discover that you have an abnormally wide and deep space between the two sides of your abs, you should:
- Avoid crunches, sit ups, big twists, and full prone planks while you educate yourself and learn how to exercise in a way that doesn't make the situation worse. Once you learn how to engage your core properly, and your diastasis narrows and regains function and tension, you can return to those motions.
- Read our "Unclosed Core" article series linked here about biomechanical, chemical and emotional factors relative to the journey of narrowing your diastasis recti
- Consult with a local specialist. Use this link to find a diastasis expert in your area who can give you a hands-on check so you know where you're really at + personalized programming tailored to your needs.
- Join Fit2B where our TummySafe workouts encourage safe yet progressively more challenging activity while helping you to begin rebuilding your connection to your core. Fit2B is known for it's safe workouts for those dealing with diastasis recti, hernia, surgery, and other abdominal traumas, but our clients hail from all fitness levels around the globe! We are the fitness piece of your core's rehab that won't re-widen your separation if it's in the process of healing.
Want to strengthen your body without worsening your diastasis?

Full Details
Whilst a night under canvas is perfectly okay, we'd much rather take two nights under a more solid kind of roof...
We're offering you a two-night wooden wigwam stay for 2 people including daily breakfast for £79, saving you up to 42% off Pot-a-Doodle Do Wigwam Village's price of up to £135.80.
Situated near Berwick-Upon-Tweed on the spectacular Northumberland coast, Pot-a-Doodle Do Wigwam Village is close to some of the most breathtaking scenery in Britain. Pot-a-Doodle Do offers twenty purpose-built wooden wigwams, creating a fun and different alternative to traditional camping holidays. Each wigwam sleeps up to five people on comfortable mattresses, is fully insulated and has electricity, heating, fridge and a table. On site, you'll find a fully equipped spacious communal kitchen with a TV lounge nearby, so you won't be short of some essential creature comforts - but since today's deal includes a delicious breakfast each morning, cooking for yourself isn't going to be high on the priority list!
Head out further afield and you'll quickly find Pot-a-Doodle Do is an ideal location to begin a walk. You could head along the banks for a fine stroll along the cliffs south of Spittal with panoramic views of Holy island and Bamburgh Castle in the distance, or you may prefer a longer circular walk returning back along the sandy Cocklawburn Beach. Browse the pretty shop with mouthwatering local food and gifts or spend some time in the licensed café and bistro which serves a superb range of home cooked foods, table wines and beers. Enjoy...

Low-cost and no-cost ways to save energy…starting today!
There are lots of good reasons to conserve energy at home, not the least of which is saving money on your home electricity and heating bills. And then there's the little matter of saving the planet… The good news is conserving energy – in real ways that can help your wallet (and then the planet) right now – can start right away. As in…today.
Here are a few low-cost and no-cost ways to start saving energy:
- Install a programmable thermostat. When you do this, we guarantee you'll say, "that's it?" followed by, "why didn't I do that sooner?" A programmable thermostat that can be set to specific temperatures on a schedule (for example, lower at night while you're sleeping, or during the workday when you're out of the house) can lower the costs of your heating and cooling systems.
- Air dry dishes and clothes. Instead of using your dishwasher's drying cycle, which uses a lot of electricity, let your clean dishes air dry on the countertop. The same thing applies to laundry. When the weather's good, go old school and hang your laundry out in the back yard. The sun and fresh air will do wonders for your clothes, and the little bit of time spent clipping clothespins can be very relaxing and meditative.
- Lower the temperature of your water heater. Set the thermostat at 120°F. You won't even know the difference in your daily shower, but you will notice a difference in your utility bill.
- Wash only full loads of clothes. Sure, it's tempting to toss a few items in the washer so you can wear them tomorrow, but the water, and energy to heat it, really adds up. Give up a little convenience and plan your laundry so that you only wash full loads.
- Switch to fluorescent bulbs. Compact fluorescent light bulbs use at least two-thirds less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs, and they last up to 10 times longer. Not to mention, according to the Union of Concerned Scientists, if every household in the United States replaced just one regular incandescent bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb, it would prevent 90 billion pounds of greenhouse gas emissions from power plants, the equivalent of taking 7.5 million cars off the road. It's a no-brainer!
- Switch it off. Yep, just like your mom always said, turn the lights off when you're not in the room!
- Drive carefully. Avoid aggressive driving and the attendant rapid acceleration and braking. This is a big fuel waster. And don't idle your engine when you're waiting for the kids after soccer practice. (In some states, such as New Jersey, idling is against the law.)

Kids and Teens School Time Science Living Things Animals Birds Raptors New World Vultures
New World vultures inhabit North and South America.
They have an raised hind toe for walking. Except for hisses and grunts, they are almost silent because they have no voice box.
This group of birds includes the Andean and California condors, and the Black and Turkey Vultures.
Some believe that New World vultures are more closely related to storks than hawks and eagles.

Union Bargaining Strength as a Public Good: Experimental Evidence
When collective agreements apply to all employees, whether unionized or not, what is the rationale behind joining a union? The paper presents an experiment on a two-stage game. In the first stage, the decision to join a union is modeled as a voluntary contribution to a public good. In the second stage, the unionized employees bargain with the employer over wages. The experimental evidence reveals that: i) the union density is higher than predicted by theory but declining over time, ii) the size of the union increases the employees' bargaining power but not as much as predicted.
