MarketBeat calculates consensus ratings using the most recent rating from each brokerage that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Since brokers often use different ratings systems, each rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings. Each stock's consensus rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0-1.5 = Sell, 1.5-2.5 = Hold, 2.5-3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months.MarketBeat will no longer include ratings and price target data in its consensus calculation if a broker drops coverage and MarketBeat has received a report that coverage was dropped. Ratings from certain research firms that issue ratings using purely quantitative methods (such as Zacks, Vetr and ValuEngine) are not included in consensus calculations. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.Ratings Breakdown: No ratings tracked in the last 12 months.Consensus Rating:N/A (Score: NaN)Consensus Price Target: N/A Analysts' Ratings History for Valassis Communications (NYSE:VCI) Show: Only the Most Recent Rating From Each Brokerage All Ratings For This Stock No equities research coverage for this company has been tracked by MarketBeat.com Earnings Earnings History for Valassis Communications (NYSE:VCI)Earnings History by Quarter for Valassis Communications (NYSE VCI)DateQuarterConsensus EstimateActual EPSRevenue EstimateActual RevenueRelease LinkConference CallDetails12/18/2013Q4$0.85$0.85ViewN/A10/24/2013Q313$0.85$0.72$494.90 million$489.40 millionViewListen7/25/2013Q2 2013$0.77$0.70$507.58 million$495.90 millionViewListen4/25/2013Q1 2013$0.69$0.54$489.90 million$482.52 millionViewListen2/21/2013Q4 2012$0.95$0.85$556.61 million$579.40 millionViewListen10/25/2012$0.73$0.78ViewN/A7/26/2012$0.77$0.76ViewN/A4/26/2012$0.67$0.60ViewN/A2/16/2012$0.80$0.95ViewN/A10/26/2011$0.72$0.58ViewN/A7/28/2011$0.68$0.67ViewN/A4/28/2011$0.52$0.57ViewN/A2/17/2011$0.59$0.47ViewN/A(Data available from 1/1/2011 forward) Estimates Earnings Estimates for Valassis Communications (NYSE:VCI)Current Year EPS Consensus Estimate: $2.85 EPSNext Year EPS Consensus Estimate: $3.32 EPS Dividends Current Dividend Information for Valassis Communications (NYSE:VCI)Most Recent Dividend:1/15/2014Dividend Yield:0.00%Dividend Growth:0.00% (3 Year Average)Payout Ratio:0.00% (Based on This Year's Estimates)0.00% (Based on Next Year's Estimates)Dividend History by Quarter for Valassis Communications (NYSE VCI)AnnouncedPeriodAmountYieldEx-Dividend DateRecord DatePayable Date12/13/2013quarterly$0.314.3%12/27/201312/31/20131/15/20149/12/2013quarterly$0.314.32%9/26/20139/30/201310/15/20136/6/2013quarterly$0.314.72%6/26/20136/28/20137/15/20133/11/2013quarterly$0.314.3%3/26/20133/28/20134/15/201312/13/2012quarterly$0.314.56%12/27/201212/31/20121/15/2013(Data available from 1/1/2013 forward) Insider Trades Insider Trading and Institutional Ownership History for Valassis Communications (NYSE:VCI)Insider Trades by Quarter for Valassis Communications (NYSE:VCI)Transaction DateInsider NameTitleBuy/SellNumber of SharesAverage Share PriceTotal TransactionDetails12/18/2013Linda SchalekSVPSell5,000$34.75$173,750.00 12/12/2013Brian HusselbeeCEOSell4,353$28.42$123,712.26 12/12/2013James ParkinsonEVPSell5,593$28.42$158,953.06 12/12/2013Linda SchalekSVPSell1,726$28.42$49,052.92 12/12/2013Ronald GoolsbyCOOSell6,681$28.42$189,874.02 9/11/2013Alan SchultzDirectorSell39,666$29.05$1,152,297.30 9/10/2013Alan F SchultzDirectorSell101,567$29.10$2,955,599.70 8/23/2013Alan SchultzDirectorSell106,688$29.05$3,099,286.40 8/13/2013Alan SchultzDirectorSell144,140$28.78$4,148,349.20 8/9/2013Alan SchultzDirectorSell189,315$28.61$5,416,302.15 8/7/2013Alan SchultzDirectorSell81,348$28.47$2,315,977.56 8/5/2013Alan SchultzDirectorSell83,542$29.08$2,429,401.36 3/25/2013Alan F SchultzDirectorSell5,184$29.76$154,275.84 3/13/2013Alan F SchultzDirectorSell68,795$29.06$1,999,182.70 3/12/2013Linda J SchalekSVPSell1,400$29.00$40,600.00 3/12/2013Todd L WiseleyEVPSell3,531$29.00$102,399.00 1/17/2013Todd L WiseleyEVPSell7,000$28.00$196,000.00 12/27/2012Robert L RecchiaCFOSell34,600$25.67$888,182.00 12/26/2012Alan F SchultzDirectorSell38,467$25.86$994,756.62 (Data available from 1/1/2013 forward) Headlines Headline Trends for Valassis Communications (NYSE:VCI) Latest Headlines for Valassis Communications (NYSE:VCI) Source: All Sources Trusted Sources MarketBeat.com Bloomberg MarketWatch Motley Fool NASDAQ Reuters Seeking Alpha The Street The Wall Street Journal Yahoo Finance DateHeadlineRetailMeNot Sells for Massive 50% Premium (SALE)www.investopedia.com - April 12 at 12:01 PMHarland Clarke to mesh digital and print retail coupons after acquisitionwww.bizjournals.com - April 12 at 12:01 PMUPDATE 1-RetailMeNot to be bought by Harland Clarkewww.businessinsider.com - April 10 at 7:59 PMBob Recchia Named Chief Financial Officer at Crain Communicationsfinance.yahoo.com - July 28 at 11:29 AMUPDATE 3-News Corp to settle in-store promotions litigation for $280 mlnwww.cnbc.com - February 29 at 9:39 PMUPDATE 1-News Corp to settle U.S. in-store ads monopoly lawsuit -lawyerwww.cnbc.com - February 29 at 4:35 PM Social Chart Valassis Communications (VCI) Chart for Friday, July, 28, 2017 This page was last updated on 7/28/2017 by MarketBeat.com Staff

As summer is winding down, I'm trying to wear all my favorite pieces before I break out my fall wardrobe (which I'm REALLY excited for). Yesterday was beautiful, but a little chilly by the lake! I was so happy I grabbed a button up before heading out the door!
A hat is a must when you're having a bad hair day! I have reallllly thick hair which is hard to tame, so most days you will find me in a hat!
I am ob-sessed with these Henry and Belle jeans (which you will be hearing more about soon), they fit perfectly and make my legs look so long!
Gold accessories, as always.

Dark Sun is a Dungeons & Dragons campaign setting featuring the fictional desert world of Athas. The Dark Sun campaign setting was released in 1991
The themes of this setting could fit in the Dying Earth subgenre and include survival against the elements, ecological disaster, resource depletion, survival of the fittest, slavery and poverty, and the widespread use of psionic abilities. The political setting is similar to ancient Middle East, North Africa or Mesopotamia. Water and metals are extremely scarce. Survival against the elements has made it a harsh exotic world.
Development Edit
This section requires expansion.
The Dark Sun setting drew much of its appeal from artist Brom's imagery: "I pretty much designed the look and feel of the Dark Sun campaign. I was doing paintings before they were even writing about the setting. I'd do a painting or a sketch, and the designers wrote those characters and ideas into the story. I was very involved in the development process
The Physical World Edit
Once a blue planet teeming with life, Athas has since been stripped of its fertility by the use of corrupting magic known as Defiling Magic, and the decay of its sun. It is a sun-burnt land forsaken by the gods, water, and hope. The natural resources have been depleted and a lack of metal has resulted in the use of wood, obsidian and bone for weapons, tools and common equipment. In such a harsh and unforgiving land, even the most mundane of creatures have developed psionic abilities in the constant struggle of survival of the fittest.
In such a world as Athas, a death by natural aging is considered to be a great achievement and an event worthy of celebrations.
Geography Edit
Sea of Silt Edit
Water has long since ceased to flow on the surface and can only be found in the last sea, some oases, tiny lakes and streams, as well as west of the Ringing Mountains in the Forest Ridge. Not only are the mountains nearly impassable (the name Ringing Mountains refers to the lightheaded feeling one feels from lack of oxygen when traversing them) but the Forest Ridge is the home of halflings, which in the Dark Sun world are small creatures that live in tribes in the forest and do not hesitate to capture and eat intruders to their realm. This makes the prospect of going west across the mountains a near impossibility.
In the place of an ocean, the world of Athas, due to defiling magic, has a sea composed entirely of silt. The silt is incredibly dangerous as it is not capable of supporting the weight of humanoid creatures, and the particles themselves are extremely fine and get into the lungs quite easily. A strong wind from the Silt Sea can cause people from nearby villages to have to remain indoors all day, though with a certain amount of water some people often make use of a mask-like object called a silter which is placed over the mouth and nose and kept wet in order to help the user breathe.
The silt actually becomes hard-packed a few metres below the surface, but this is of no help to a human as the level within the first two metres is extremely loose and fine. However, giants often make use of the packed silt roads further below and can be seen wading chest-deep through the silt. Humans have sometimes built crafts that can navigate these silt roads much like giants do, though the going is much slower and both humans and giants still have to deal with the creatures that live in the sea.
Another method of travel is the shipfloaters, psionicists can use a large obsidian orb to focus their power to telekinetically levitate and sail the ship as if it were sailing through water.
The Tyr Region Edit
The Tyr region is a region of Athas encompassing thousands of square miles, and stretches from the Hinterlands in the West to the Valley of Dust and Fire in the East within the Sea Of Silt, to the Dead Lands in the south, and the Troll Grave Chasm to the North, it contains all but two city states of the sorcerer-kings, former Champions of Rajaat.
City StatesEdit
The rulers of the isolated city-states are called Sorcerer-Kings and, in most cases, are secretly the Dark Sun equivalent of dragons. Templars can serve and worship these Sorcerer-Kings as a source for their spells (which are actually granted by something known as a living vortex), while Clerics worship Elemental forces (Air, Fire, Water and Earth) and Druids follow powerful entities known as Spirits of the Land.
The campaign setting of the Dark Sun world generally takes place in the Tyr Region of the world of Athas, an area that spans from the Silt Sea in the east to the Hinterlands in the west and a bit beyond, plus south to the dead lands and north to a certain extent. There are cities further to the north and the south but the land is extremely unfriendly and most people do not wish to risk a journey of such length, and the location of other cities beyond the region is uncertain at best. As a whole, life within the Tyr Region itself is hard enough, and though characters in the campaign setting begin on a much higher level than those of other campaigns, this is also accompanied by a severe practicality, that risking one's life for adventure or altruism is a foolish notion, and survival from day to day takes precedence.
The city of the undead and the location of the Sage, 30 miles south west of salt view. The once beautiful city is now overrun by the undead, protectors of the secret treasure.
The southernmost city of the Tyr Region, formerly ruled by the sorcerer-king Andropinis. It is situated on the edge of the Silt Sea, and is the only city in the region to have a tradition of elected government. Compare with Ancient Greece.
Located on a vast mud flat in the northeastern area of the Tyr Region, Draj was formerly ruled by the Sorcerer-king Tectuktitlay, but after his death at Rajaat's hand in Ur-Draxa he has been replaced by his putative son, Atzetuk. Inspired by the Aztecs.
Ruled by the forest-goddess, Lalali-Puy, Gulg is unique among the city-states due to its construction from living materials of the forest instead of stone and brick. Inspired by Africa.
Nibenay is located closer to the center of the Tyr Region, just to the east of the city-state of Gulg. Nibenay is ruled by the sorcerer-king Nibenay, formerly known as Gallard the Bane of Gnomes, now known simply as "The Shadow King," and he is the most reclusive of them all. The Shadow King will often stay out of sight for years or more due to lack of interest in governmental affairs and having other more important projects to work on. Inspired by Angkor.
Formerly ruled by the sorcerer-queen Abalach-Re, Raam was fermenting with revolt even before her death and is now filled with chaos, an armed camp divided among various struggling factions. Inspired by Egypt.
Tyr is located just to the east of the Ringing Mountains. Tyr was ruled by the sorcerer-king Kalak until his overthrow on the verge of his ascension. It is now the only free-city of the region, banning the practice of slavery. It shares much in common with its historical quasi-namesake Tyre, including a monopoly over purple dye.
Ruled by the totalitarian Hamanu, Urik has become a closed city since the Great Earthquake, only rarely sending out trade caravans and remaining otherwise sealed. Inspired by Babylon and Uruk.

After McLaren's young prodigy finished third on his debut outing in Australia, then second in Malaysia, there was fevered expectation that he might deliver his first victory in only the third race of his career. In reality this was always going to be improbable but Hamilton could hardly be judged any less a star performer after sustaining relentless pressure on Massa's Ferrari from the start of the 57-lap race, vaulting himself into a one-third share of the world championship lead in the process.
"I am happy with it. This weekend we have definitely closed the gap to Ferrari. Unfortunately I didn't get as good a start as Felipe; he did very well for the first corner. I tried to make sure I stayed as close as possible and maybe have a chance on the first lap. I struggled a bit in the second stint but came good in the end."
Of his overall standing he added: "It's fantastic, obviously, to be equal on points with Fernando [Alonso] and Kimi [Raikkonen]. I think the team's done a fantastic job. I think we had very good pace this weekend, possibly the pace to be on pole, but I think Felipe did a fantastic job in qualifying and in the race. Usually the Ferraris start to pull away during the stint but we generally had similar pace, if not quicker in both first and last stints, so I think we've made a fantastic step forward and I'm really happy for the team."
At the start Massa accelerated cleanly into the lead, heading the field at the end of the opening lap from the McLarens of Hamilton and Alonso, Raikkonen's Ferrari and the BMW Saubers of Nick Heidfeld and Robert Kubica. Unfortunately a first-corner collision between Jenson Button's Honda and the Toro Rosso of Scott Speed not only eliminated these two competitors on the opening lap but triggered a safety car period which lasted until the end of lap three before the debris was cleared and the pack could be unleashed once more.
Button, from 16th on the grid, could hardly believe what was happening to him. "I made a good start and made up at least three places but then at turn two Taku [Sato] ran wide, tried to squeeze me and I had nowhere to go but on to the dirt on the inside," he said. "Then in turn three I had [David] Coulthard and someone else fighting around me. DC went wide, then cut in again sharply and I had nowhere to go. We touched, I spun round and the anti-stall [mechanism] didn't cut in. I stalled and that was the end after two corners."
For the first few laps after the restart Hamilton held the gap to Massa at 0.6sec but by lap eight the Brazilian had steadied his advantage to just a second. Yet Hamilton fought back with a couple of faster laps, trimming it back to 0.9sec on lap nine and then 0.8sec next time around.
Buoyed by the sight of Massa momentarily locking his wheels and running wide a few laps earlier, Hamilton kept up the pressure but Massa never made another slip and looked totally in command for the rest of the afternoon.
Hamilton made his first refuelling stop from second place at the end of lap 19 but Massa stayed out until lap 23, so as the race settled down again after that first flurry of pit-lane activity Massa found himself running a more comfortable 4.6sec ahead of Hamilton with Raikkonen now third. Once Raikkonen was ahead of Alonso the Spanish driver slipped out of contention, shrugging his shoulders with disappointment after being pushed down to fifth place by Heidfeld's BMW Sauber after a heady performance by the German driver.
"After this race I'm left with a bit of a bitter taste for not having been able to climb on to the podium which was the main target," Alonso told Spanish television. "But after these first three races I didn't think I would be sharing the lead in the championship with the Ferraris when we thought they were on another planet. So we'll arrive in Barcelona [May 13] in good condition and leading the championship."
Alonso, who finished 14 seconds behind Massa, admitted there was not much more he could have done. "I wasn't very comfortable with the car and in the end I did the best I could," he said.
McLaren's chief executive, Martin Whitmarsh, explained that Alonso had not really been happy with the braking performance of his car all through the weekend. "This is a circuit with really heavy braking and I think Fernando is a little less comfortable than Lewis in such a situation. It's a track where it's easy to lock up both front and rear tyres and, while we need to do a little more work on our braking system, this was a continuing issue for Fernando throughout the weekend."
Boy wonder
Australian GP (3rd)
Snatches second spot at the first corner from Fernando Alonso, the reigning world champion, after starting fourth on the grid. After leading for several laps his third place is the best result for a British debutant since Mike Parkes in 1966.
Malaysian GP (2nd)
Becomes the first driver for 43 years to reach the podium in his first two races. The McLaren man vaulted from fourth on the grid to second by the second corner of the opening lap. Held off Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen impressively late on.
Bahrain GP (2nd)
Tops the drivers' championship following another extraordinary performance, starting from second on the grid and maintaining pressure on Felipe Massa throughout.

Weld Clerk and Recorder documents now available online
April 10, 2013
Online access
To access public records through the Weld County Clerk and Recorder's Office, go to http://www.co.weld.co.us/Departments/ClerkRecorder/ and click on the "EagleWeb Record Lookup" link on the right hand side.
Single documents can be purchased by credit card. They cost 50 cents for the first page and 25 cents for each additional page. Frequent users have the option to pay a flat fee of $300 per month.
Where Weld County Clerk and Recorder Steve Moreno once saw lines of briefcases snaking outside of his office before it even opened, he said Monday the office barely had a visitor.
Already, Moreno said word has gotten out that all of his office's public records are available digitally. Monday marked the first day that all of the county's real estate records, military discharges, maps and plats, and marriage licenses dating back to 1865 were available online.
"There's like one person researching right now," Moreno said from his office Monday morning.
Just a few months ago, Moreno's office was swimming with oil and gas workers researching land titles for areas where their companies were interested in drilling. In an extremely competitive environment, Moreno said workers would line up before the office opened, while some companies paid the $19,000 for a private microfilm machine in his office.
Now, Moreno said those workers can wake up at 3 a.m. to research the same land titles, if they want to.
"I'm so excited about this, that the citizens will be able to do this at their convenience," he said.
The task of scanning in hard copy records took nearly two years and about $700,000, Moreno said. Those looking for documents can click on the "EagleWeb" record lookup link on the clerk and recorder's website and can search by name, document type and reception number.
Instead of charging for copies of microfilm, as the clerk and recorder's office did in the past, documents online cost 50 cents for the first page and 25 cents for each additional page. Frequent users can pay a flat fee of $300 per month. So far, Moreno said 100 people have signed up for the flat monthly fee.
With oil and gas researchers contributing thousands of dollars to county coffers for copies in recent years, Moreno said he's unsure of how the digital fee will change his office's revenue. Even after a state-mandated reduction in copy fees in 2007, 2011 revenue surpassed that of 2007, reaching $267,000 due to so much traffic through Moreno's office.
"We might see a little slowdown from making copies inside of the office," Moreno said. But he said it's possible the clerk and recorder's office could see the return of some people who find it more cost effective to pay the county for copies instead of paying for their own toner and printer at home.
For now, Moreno said he expects most people to take advantage of the new online tool, which means an empty office for a while.
"It's kind of spooky," he said.

text: Sepura to buy rival PMR radio manufacturer Teltronic for £94.2m06 May 2015 05:50 PM Deal will extend Sepura's activities in North and Latin America and will provide the combined company with a stronger presence to take on larger professional mobile radio rivalsUK two-way radio solutions manufacturer Sepura is to acquire its Spanish rival Teltronic for €127.5m (£94.2m). Sepura is suspending its existing buyback programme and is funding the deal with £60.5m of new equity and loan facilities from Barclays, HSBC and Santander, according to a Daily Telegraph report.The same report says Teltronic is understood to have been put up for sale by its private equity firm N+1 around a year ago and had caught the attention of Sepura's chief executive Gordon Watling.Watling was quoted as saying: "This is a highly complementary and transformational acquisition which will be immediately earnings enhancing. It brings together two of the market's growing players, to create a market leading digital Professional Mobile Radio company, with a broader offering and significantly enhanced capabilities.""Teltronic's business will diversify our geographical reach, growing our footprint in Latin America and enhancing our existing presence in North America, specifically the US; expanding and diversifying our revenue streams accordingly."As the number and scale of digital radio networks around the world increases, we will have the breadth of portfolio and financial strength to compete for significant new contracts at a high level," said Watling.Juan Ferro, the current CEO of Teltronic, will lead the enlarged systems and network business of Sepura, along with his senior team. Teltronic operates in over 50 countries and is particularly strong in Latin America, North America (where it operates under the PowerTrunk name) and the EMEA region.Teltronic product range includes radio terminals and infrastructure for TETRA, P25, LTE and hybrid TETRA/LTE networks, along with CCTV, vehicular systems and some command and control solutions. Key sectors include public safety, transport industries, utilities and critical infrastructure in general.The move will help Sepura, which has traditionally targeted the public safety sector in particular, to further penetrate the commercial market. It is also active in the transport, utilities, oil and gas, manufacturing and construction sectors.The company has been seeking to widen its technology portfolio for the last few years to avoid being overly dependent on the public safety sector. Sepura expanded beyond TETRA technology by adding DMR (digital mobile radio) two-way radio technology to its range in November 2013.Founded in 2002, Sepura originally concentrated on manufacturing TETRA two-way radio terminals. It acquired 3T, the Austrian supplier of TETRA infrastructure in 2012, which enabled it to provide a full TETRA solution. It then bought Portalify, the Helsinki based applications developer, in July 2013, followed by Fylde Micro Ltd, the UK-based radio trunking solutions company, in 2014.In April 2015, Sepura was awarded the Queen's Award for International Trade, the most prestigious business accolade in the UK.James Atkinson EditorLinkedIn |Google + |Email Leave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're humanMore on...

Fidelity sells BostonCoach to Harrison Global
Fidelity Investments is selling BostonCoach to Harrison Global for undisclosed terms.
The Waltham-based Harrison plans to maintain the BostonCoach name, the majority of its 500 drivers and other staff, and its Everett headquarters. CEO Larry Moulter, who's led BostonCoach for the last five years, will leave the company.
Fidelity Chairman Edward "Ned" C. Johnson III launched BostonCoach in 1985, and the company now operates ground transportation networks of sedans, limousines, vans, SUVs, business-class vans and motor coaches in cities in 40 countries. Its Best of Boston destination management company specializes in event services and group transportation.
The sale, which had been rumored in the last week, is expected to close in June.
BostonCoach is part of Fidelity's private equity portfolio, Devonshire Investors.
"Since the '80s, the portfolio has comprised a series of majority-owned operating businesses that have been developed over the years either through acquisitions or incubations," Fidelity spokesman Vincent Loporchio said. "Some companies of the portfolio, such as Fidelity Investments Life Insurance become part of Fidelity's financial services division. The others, such as Sebastians, Community Newspapers, Wentworth Gallery have been sold."
A number of strategic options were explored for BostonCoach over the past several months, he said, and the sale to Harrison best positions it for future success.
"Both companies share a number of similarities, which makes it a logical fit," Loporchio said.
The 27-year-old Harrison provides corporation transportation through limousine, shuttle, sedan and other chauffeured services as well as coach buses. Managing partner Russ Cooke is a former BostonCoach CEO.

by LivingForEternityWhen I first started homeschooling I was very naive, but I really loved my children and wanted what was best for them. After witnessing many of my peers growing up to live what I considered to be wasteful lives I decided that my children would be protected from that. They would grow up to be productive people with great character.Fear is what originally drew me to home school my children. Fear of what the world would do to them and cause them to become. At that time I did not trust my heavenly Father to guide my children in the path that He had chosen. I took the reins in my own hands to protect my precious babies.As a home school mom I wanted to be perfect. We … [Read more...]

It was my greatest accomplishment; it was my reward from God for being virtuous and pure. Saying vows that I wrote myself, I outdid every right-wing, anti-feminist bride on earth.

A 900 square foot home behind a used car lot on a busy highway is not an average Mother of 5 little children's dream home!

Daughter of the Patriarchy: The Sickness ~ Pt 2
by SierraWilliam Branham never claimed to be a faith healer. That is, he claimed that it was the power of the individual's faith in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ that healed their diseases. Christ had finished the work; there was nothing left to do but believe. In a 1955 sermon entitled Jehovah-Jireh, Branham explained that faith was the force that brought healing to the believer: If I could heal anyone, I'd come down here, and go to each one and heal everyone. I would, if I could. But I can't. And there's no other man can. And--and if Jesus was here, He could not, only if you'd believe. Look. That sounds strange, that Jesus could not heal unless you'd believe. When He went to His Own … [Read more...]

I knew that against my will I was edging closer, and would someday have no choice but to jump in. But I looked frantically for an outlet or a bridge, digging in my heels against the edges of the pit. The name of the abyss was womanhood.I was taught that the Bible recognized three classes of people: men, women, and children. In God's plan for the family, authority descended directly in that order. Men obeyed God, women obeyed men, and children obeyed all three. For those living within this scheme, God … [Read more...]

Great quiz, food was disappointing though for the price.
((((( 30 January 2017 by Tika Kohlschein from London Borough of Southwark
Absolutely loved this cute little pub. The food came quickly and was tasty and the tables upstairs were light and airy whilst the individual cellar booths downstairs were a bit darker and cosier (probably better for evening events) The pub was busy but not packed and it was a great Sunday lunch. We would definitely go back again.

We all had the Sunday Roast and the beef was good, although not as pink as we would have liked and the roast potatoes were pale and not very crispy. Large portion and were unable to tackle any of the delicious looking puddings. The atmosphere was very pleasant and we had a very enjoyable lunch.
(((** 1 November 2016 by Ruth Wheeler from London
We visited the Southwark Tavern on friday evening so it was very busy. Most of the staff were serving so we had to find our reserved table by ourselves and go in search of someone to order our food. Three of us ate and gave the food mixed reviews - the fish and chips were excellent but the steak wasn't that great as it had gristle running through it.

At the Register this week, I write about an idea floated by the German episcopate to go their own way on matters of "pastoral care" and damn what the Universal Church has to say. Trent's already rendered the verdict on this approach, and pretending "pastoral care" isn't the same as "discipline" doesn't make it any less of [Read More…]
Verdict on German Plan?: "Schismatical, heretical."

Hallo! I am NOT dead or injured, sick or any other random fate you might have deemed me to be. I am simply wrapped up in school work and early christmas preasents. I had to make this because, well...I thought it fit the song! Plus, I had a dream about it sooo...it must be published! In addition, I shall try to get the next chapter of First Crush 2 as soon as possible.
I looked at my surroundings. Big boulder to the left...check. Small orange tree to my right...check. The ground was covered in a lush coat of green grass, a small savannah flowers bringing a pop of color to the green floor beneath me. According to Zazu's cousin, Gigi, I should have been in the right place. The den should be just over the next hill. I took in a deep breath to steel my nerves and took one step foward, feeling the grass cushion my paw.
Before taking two steps back.
I growled at my cowardice and willed myself to keep moving. I HAD to do this! If I didn't, I would surely go insane. But something inside me pulled me back the way I came. But I just needed to know. I needed to know if everything that I had heard, everything that had been bothering me for the past month, that haunted my dreams every night without fail, was true. So,
gathering, every ounce of courage I had, I kept walking.
I heard that you're settled down
The rumors began esporatically at first, but gradually became more frequent and comeplete. They all varied slightly, but had one thing in common. They involved Ni. My lost love. Naturally, I paid an unnatural amount of attention to the stories, despite my claims to 'Rabi that I had gotten over him. Because, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't stop loving him.
That you've found a girl
It surprised me just as much as it hurt me. He had found another lioness?
And you're married now
Not to mention that he had committed. He never did so with me. He claimed he loved me, proved his love in more than one way. Then left. Under horrible conditions. He broke my heart, plunged me into a dark abyss that cost me everything to get out of. And yet, he had managed to build another life?
I heard that your dreams came true
They said he was happy, that he had finally found what he had been looking for, friends, a girl, even a family! He even had a small pride! A small territory of his own! After he had torn apart our own home, after he had almost destroyed our pride with his idiocracy, everything turned out perfect. Half of me wanted to be happy for him, like I should have been, but the other half of me wanted to hear of him leading a miserable fate as a rougue.
I guess she gave you things I didn't give to you
I could only believe that somehow, the other lioness had given him something I hadn't. But what didn't I given him? I had given him my love, my friendship, myself, I even had a family waiting for him when he left. Nala.
My darling daughter that served as the only piece of him left. She had his reckless attitude, the one that often got her in trouble, even at the tender age of 3 weeks!
Old friend, why are you so shy
The birds and monkeys hadn't given any more information. He was often elusive and hard to talk to, keeping his secrets and opinions to himself. Which deeply surprised me. He never had problems talking before...in fact, he often talked too much!
It ain't like you to hold back or to hide from the light
He often spoke his mind, always wanted to limelight. Tried to take the lead when we all went out to play or to explore. It was the same headstrong and boisterous attitude that gave him so much grief. It was the same personality that I loved so much. And that destroyed us.
I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
I had first made plans to visit him about...well yesterday. His supposed "kingdom" was a day's trip away. 'Rabi was taking care of Nala while I was gone.
"Are you sure about this 'Fina?" 'Rabi asked me, concerned. Mufasa was back in the den, occupying the cubs. Mufasa was like a brother to me.
"I'm positive." I responded, feeling a single hot tear roll down my cheek. "I have to know." I looked at the horizon, said my goodbyes and started for the Greenlands.
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
Every step I took was longer, faster, until I was flat out running. It was a magnet, pulling me closer and closer. All that was on my mind was getting there. And finding out the truth.
I'd hope you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
Mabye, just mabye, if he saw me again, if he realized what he left, what he broke...he would at least be sorry, help raise Nala with me.
That for me it isn't over yet
It had never been over! It could never be! What we had was special, NOTHING could change what we had. He had to feel the same ache that I felt, the same hole in his heart. It couldn't be over...
Finally, I reached the top of the hill, and saw him. He still had those captivating saphirre eyes, the chocolate mane that fell in his eyes, that bright smile that he got around me. The same smile that was now directed at a rust colored lioness...and a small rust colored cub with saphirre eyes.
I felt my heart shatter.
They were true. All of the rumors were true.
Nevermind I'll find someone like you
I swallowed the lump in my throat and blinked back tears. Ni looked up, at first confused, then with a look of astonishment.
"Sari?" he breathed. I saw him mouth his nickname for me. His mate looked at him confused, then to me, still confused. Ni excused himself and came up to me in disbelief. I held back the tears that threatened to roll down my face. Trying not to say or do something that would ruin the delicate balance we held.
I wish nothing but the best for you two
"Ni.." I whispered, my voice faltering slightly. His confused expression turned to one of joy.
"Sari!" he bumped his head against mine in a friendly gesture. I barely moved. "It's great to see you!" he then turned to his mate, "Diana! Come over here! It's an old friend!" an old friend,
that was all I was. His mate came up to me with a smile and greeted me cheerily, introducing their child, Dumira, a beautiful little girl. At that moment, I realized that I could never destroy what they had.
Don't forget me, I beg
They invited me to lunch, the hunt would be there at any minute. I tried to politely decline, but they insisted. The little cub chatted away, telling me about her first time out of the den. She was friendly and kind. Like Nala. The family that Ni had...was perfect. It was something he never gave me the chance to give him.
I remember you said
He told me, the moment before he left, tears streaming down both of our cheeks, blood trickling down his muzzle...
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead
He shakily yelled it at me, anger and hurt making the words sting and burn like acid.
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead
The wisest thing he said. The words that sealed my fate.
You'd know how the time flies
Time was tricky, it sped by when we least wanted it too. Like our last peaceful night together.
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
It seemed like yesterday, as he told me of his good fortune, that we were all carefree cubs, the only worries were what we were going to do next. Before all of the pain and hurtful words. Before all of the unmendable wounds were inflicted.
We were born and raised in a summery haze
Our cubhood simply consisted of hot days with fun games to play and new places to explore. But it all changed. We all changed from those innocent cubs we once were.
Bound by the suprise of our glory days
Those simple times, turned on their heads, flipped around, plunged into darkness. We fought, we loved, we made foolish decisions. We were lions. This happened all of the time. We all remebered those few days where nothing was right. The only thing keeping all of us afloat was our fond memories. The same memories that we reminisced in his den, surrounded by his new life. With every detail said, Ni looked even more uncomfortable, knowing what was coming.
I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
I tried to excuse myself, apoligizing for the unexpected visit but Diana would have nothing of it. Ni looked wary. Nervous, knowing that not all of the memories I had to share were good ones. I was planning on asking him for a very good explanation.
But I couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it
I finally asked to speak with Ni privately, pretending that it was a matter between childhood friends. As soon as we got out of earshot, underneath the stars...I spoke up.
"I couldn't ignore the stories." I said simply, looking at the silver pinpoints of light we looked at so many times when we were younger. I finally looked at him. "Why?" was all I said.
I'd hope you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
He looked at me sadly.
"You know why Sari." he whispered, a crystal tear falling to the ground. My gaze hardened before I made him confront the truth.
That for me it isn't over yet
"No." I said evenly. "I don't."
Nevermind I'll find someone like you
He looked at me with a hurt look in his eyes. And sighed.
"You thought that everything could have been fixed Sari' but-"
"It still can." I answered shakily. But I knew that was a lie. The time to heal the wounds was long gone. And he had started anew.
I wish nothing but the best for you two
He smiled.
"It can't. Sari'... I appreciate what you gave me. A happy childhood, a fun adolecense...but I...I already-"
"Found what you needed." I finished for him. I smiled sadly. He did the same.
"Yeah." he said. His voice breaking.
Don't forget me I beg
"You..." I started, planning on telling him that he had another daughter, telling him how much he hurt me. But, images of my family back home...'Rabi: my sister...Mufasa: my brother...
Nala: my daughter...Simba: my nephew...they all flashed before my eyes. And I knew that I didn't need Ni anymore. I could let him go.
"Yes?" he asked.
"Just...say goodbye to Diana and Dumira for me...and please," I whispered shakily, "Don't forget me."
I remember you said
He smiled and nuzzled me softly.
"I don't think I could if I tried." He whispered. I didn't feel my heart pound like it used to, and smiled. After saying a final goodbye, I went around the back of his den and climbed the hill I went over earlier.
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead
I smiled as tears blurred my vision of the picture-perfect family. But I knew that I could sleep happily tonight. I never needed Ni. Although, I did have to thank him for one thing.
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes is hurts instead...yay
Heartbreak wasn't fun. Neither was love. It took you for a ride, plunged you down into a steep drop that made your stomach twist, only to raise you again to a magnificent height.
Nothing compares, no worries or cares
But it was neccessary. We needed it to survive. Where would the world be without love? Where would I be? Void of anything precious. That's where I would be.
Regrets or mistakes they're memories made
No matter how much they hurt, the things that love gave me were wonderful. I had Nala. And I had memories of Ni. Ones that I would cherish forever.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste
We never thought it would end up like this. Now, as I looked at his new life, as I thought of my own, I realized that it hurt. But it didn't at the same time. It was bitter...yet sweet.
Nevermind I'll find someone like you
I started the trip back home, each step heavy yet light. My heart conflicted.
I wish nothing but the best for you two
I did. I really did. I wanted the best for him. Because that's what I had.
Don't forget me I beg
I just didn't want to fade into oblivion. Because, he would always be a part of me. He turned me into what I was today.
I remember you said
The words that had once hurt, now resonated in my heart and mind, ringed with a truth that I never saw before.
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead
Love did hurt, did heal. It changed you. It changed lives. It changed mine. But, in this case, a small little tear, a minute one, would always be there.
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead
I had a lasting love, Nala.
And a hurt love, Ni.
I wouldn't trade either for the world.
So? Whatcha think? I have more ideas mor song-fics and full fledged stories. Including Christmas themed-ones. Cuz, if I didn't make something for christmas, I would be stupid. Please tell me what you think! : )

BATON ROUGE — The House Transportation Committee unanimously approved legislation Monday that would allow ambulances to cross the Tomey J. Doucet Bridge in Lafourche Parish without paying the tolls.
BATON ROUGE — The House Transportation Committee unanimously approved legislation Monday that would allow ambulances to cross the Tomey J. Doucet Bridge in Lafourche Parish without paying the tolls.
The initiative is part of a package of bills sponsored for the ongoing session by Rep. Truck Gisclair, D-Larose, to carve out exceptions for the tolls along La. 1. in Leeville.
The tolls now range from $2.50 for vehicles with two axles to $3.75 if there's a one-axle trailer being towed or $5 for two-axle trailers. Bigger trucks, such as those with six axles, must pay $12.
Gisclair's House Bill 182 exempts "those public and private emergency vehicles traveling with their emergency flashing lights on in the performance of their duties."
In other words: ambulances. Fire and police vehicles, originally included in Gisclair's proposal, are already allowed free passage across the Doucet Bridge if there are lights and sirens involved.
The bridge is a lifeline for Grand Isle's 1,500 residents, and they receive a discounted fee of 50 cents.
While residents are expected to shoulder a part of the costs for recent upgrades to La. 1, Gisclair is also pushing House Bill 636 to allow official vehicles from the town a free pass.
His proposal, which was temporarily put on hold last week, would allow all official logo-bearing vehicles, fire trucks, town police cars, ambulances and levee-district automobiles a free ride.
The committee unanimously approved this legislation as well Monday.
Grand Isle Mayor David Carmadelle told lawmakers that the Doucet Bridge is the only outlet and inlet local residents have to the outside world.
He also said the toll exemption would only be claimed when the vehicles are on official business.
"We're the only town in Louisiana that pays a toll to go to the bank or a doctor," Carmadelle said.
According to an analysis of the bill conducted by the Legislative Fiscal Office, Gisclair's legislation would eliminate $38,000 worth of toll revenue per year, which are needed to finish paying the $156 million in bond debt for its construction.
The bridge began collecting tolls last fall and had nearly $2 million as of Feb. 28, about $400, 000 less than expected.

B-DOE's Blog
Need To Know How Many Seconds Are Left Until Longhorn Football?
I get neurotic about things I really care about in life. For instance, a few years ago I googled "Longhorn Football Countdown" because I needed to find out exactly how many seconds remained until opening kickoff. So when I googled it again this year and noticed the same site pop up first, I decided to investigate.
My search led me to Matt Reyes. Matt is a graduate of the University of Texas, and curator of the Twitter handle @LonghornHumor. Follow them on the twittesphere for you guessed it, Longhorn humor. We chat about where the idea for a countdown came from, the upcoming Longhorn season, the reaction to Coach Strong cleaning house, and more!
Countdown the seconds with me, and be sure to invite me to all your tailgates this year. Especially the ones with Budweiser and homemade trailer grills. You might just end up on my segment, "Tailgaitin With B-DOE". Hook' em!

Does that sound like something you want in the neighbourhood? In a small mountain town, the answer is yes. When a cougar left the remains of a deer near the playground of a school in Canmore recently, the school did not close, the world did not end. Instead, a few signs ("Cougar in Area") went up; parents were informed; and the Outlook ran its standard warning: "When encountering a cougar, the public is advised to immediately pick up children and pets and maintain eye contact with the cougar while backing away from the animal slowly. Do not turn your back on a cougar and never run."
When I tell Brandy Dahrouge, a local photographer, that I'm writing about cougars, she says, "I hear you never even know they're coming. So why worry about what you can't see?"
When the Outlook posted a photo of a cougar crouched in a Canmore backyard, the comments were so cool you could have collected them in a cone: "We're so lucky to have the opportunity to view wildlife like this," Dorinda Ainscough enthused, insanely if you ask me.
To an eastern city slicker, the good people here seem to be in deep denial. A wildlife corridor sounds like a great big thing – a barrier, say, on the order of the Mexican border. In fact, they're unmarked tubes that rim parks and schoolyards and subdivisions, which is what Steve Michel means when he says that "the interface between the town and the wilderness is really abrupt." The edge of the Tunnel Mountain corridor, an alleged favourite of cougars, is five minutes from where I am sitting as I write.
An eastern city type might also say, as occasional residents do: Look, these are predators encroaching on human space – move them. It doesn't work. The current cougar activity started when the last big cat in the area – known to all as Doug – died two winters ago at the advanced age of 14, resulting in an "influx of young sub-adult male cougars," all jostling for Doug's real estate. The mountain wilderness is like corporate life: The headstrong bucks and the crabby oldsters inflict most of the damage.
Doug "was like the celebrity cat around town," Mr. Michel says. He had the habit of leaving the remains of a sheep or a beheaded deer on the steps of a building, all without ever being spotted. "We never had a single problem with him, in more than a decade." A new big cat seems to be asserting himself this spring.
How much nature is too much nature, and how much is not enough? You can have that conversation in a city, but the conclusion is always a compromise. If a big-city planner claimed that a murderous neighbourhood was a reflection of the city's true nature and shouldn't be fixed, she would be torn apart. But in a mountain town, where the land defines your job and your life, where what you can consume is less important than what might consume you, these existential questions are daily fare. The mountains make people serious.
Should a national park be safely usable by everyone? Or should it preserve nature in its wildest and most dangerous state, so that we can remember what the world was like before man came trampling along?
"There is absolutely a range of opinion on this," Mr. Michel says. Residents have learned to co-exist with the wild things. Newcomers need help. "They're willing to live with wildlife, but they don't want them wandering through their condo complex. But they also understand that's part of the mystique of being in a place like Banff."
In the meantime, he and the town try to minimize clashes. Hiking with headphones? "That's like walking through the wilderness wearing a blindfold." The town also prohibits the planting of fruit trees. Bears like them too much.
Susanne Gilles-Smith launched the recent campaign against chain stores in Banff when Toronto-based David's Tea opened a branch on Banff Avenue 14 months ago. Ms. Gilles-Smith owns the rival Banff Tea Company as well as the Plain of Six Glaciers Teahouse, beloved of hikers in Lake Louise.
A lifelong resident of the Bow Valley, she insists that she was trying to protect Banff as much as her profits. "We sort of lose track that we live in a national park, and not in some cowboy town. We live in what is probably the most famous town in Canada. We could be a real flagship. We could set an example."Report Typo/Error

Can I become allergic to my cat and dogs after being raised with them?
Yes, allergies can arise at any point in time, even to things you've never been allergic to in the past. Allergies are fairly unpredictable. For instance, when I was a young child, we had cats and I was never allergic. But later on, I developed a severe cat allergy. Now, however, in my 50s, I am no longer allergic one bit to cats. It's weird.
The best way to know what you might be reacting to is to keep a diary of your symptoms... when do they start? what were you doing right before? does anything make them better? how long do they last?
Also, try isolating yourself from the animals and see what happens. Once you're armed with that info, you might want to consult with an allergy specialist, called an allergist. He or she can test you and also examine you to determine if allergies are at work here.
Good luck,
