A Queensland teenager who witnessed the double murder of her mother and uncle as a four-year-old has made a heart-wrenching appeal for public help to solve the cold case.
Detectives have reopened an investigation into the murders of siblings April and Ian Bailey who were killed before their Deception Bay home, north of Brisbane, was destroyed by fire in May 2004.
April's now 16-year-old daughter, Violet Bailey, said the killers have been allowed to escape justice while her family suffers.
An emotional Violet lamented missing out on "11 special years", and more to come.
"Eleven years ago I was a witness to my own mother and uncle's murder(s)," she said at Brisbane's police headquarters on Thursday.
"I would be ever so grateful to know that the people who killed my mother and uncle have been put into prison.
"All because someone thought they had every right to kill them I have missed out - I have missed out on 11 special years and I'm going to miss out on even more."
Violet was discovered uninjured at the murder scene by police, who believe recent advances in technology and forensic science could finally lead them to the killers.
A military knife and matching scabbard found at the house are being examined again while voice recognition systems are helping officers to decipher three triple-zero calls, where an argument and screaming can be heard.
Forensic investigations have already determined that the pair was killed before the fire was lit.
Detective Inspector Damien Hansen said police have received around six phone calls from the public with possible information about the murders since relaunching the investigation this week.
There is a $250,000 reward for information leading to the apprehension and conviction of those responsible for the murders and arson.
Police said indemnity from prosecution would be recommended for any accomplice, not believed to have been the offender, who provided information.

Hey, hope this is the right place for this.
I'm going to a expo in October and i'll be shooting a good few hours of video each day. The battery that came with the camera will only last about 90 minutes, but I've heard there are a few better battery packs that fit this camera.
Can anybody list them for me? And possibly where's the cheapest place to to get one and how long it'll last?

So, I found what I thought was the best tutorial on using a shoe-organizer to create a wrapping paper station. I followed her steps exactly, making a few material substitutions, so I'm including the link here to the post I followed.
Here's what my finished project looks like!
The only closet I could really use was my coat closet downstairs. Not where I would keep it if I could choose, but really the only place for it.
The sack I sewed on the bottom holds all of my gift bags. My modification for this was using a ribbon as drawstring instead of elastic on the top (mainly because I didn't have any elastic on hand).
If you don't have a sewing machine, you can always use an old pillow case and safety pins to create the sack on the bottom.
Tissue paper and ribbon stored at the top.
My second modification was using 3M hooks instead of the over-the-door hooks provided.
This project is super simple and it's a great way to keep all of those wrapping supplies in one place!
I'd love to hear about your solutions for organizing wrapping paper!

Cuban down under recounts life under fidel
Luis Garcia is a Cuban who has lived in Australia since 1971. His memoir, Child of the Revolution, is due to be released in Australia on June 2nd. Purchase information is below the article.
Life Under FidelYou can purchase Child of the Revolution online from the Australian bookseller, Boomerang Books. Don't get scared off by the price of the book and the shipping, Australian dollars are currently worth about 75% of American dollars, so knock 25% off the price.
Growing up under the rule of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro meant a life of fear and repression for author Luis Garcia and his family.
From: Sunday Telegraph (Australia)
May 21, 2006
Paul Pottinger
It says much for the healing power of time that Luis Garcia finds ''hilarious'' the sight of Che Guevara's face emblazoned on the T-shirts of fashionable young things.
''It's amazing! He's no different to them from Nike -- a fashion brand,'' Garcia says.
''My parents sometimes get upset about it, but I take a different view. I think it's very funny.
''Of course, the kids have no idea.''
Garcia does. At school, he and his young compadres -- unlike those who merely see a guy who manages to looks cool in a beard and beret -- were obliged to recite ''Seremos como el Che!''
(I will be like Che!).
That was the lot of every Cuban kid four decades ago, a parallel universe the now 47-year-old Garcia recounts in Child Of The Revolution: Growing Up In Castro's Cuba.
In his first book, Garcia captures the grim banality and the absurdity of life in a communist dictatorship.
Garcia was born in 1959, a year after Castro ousted the corrupt and repressive Batista regime and started up his own, lowering a virtual Sugarcane Curtain between Cuba and the West.
In 1971, the Garcias were finally given permission to go into exile. A year later, they arrived in Sydney.
Garcia has not returned -- at least, not in person -- and will not do so while Castro's regime remains in power.
''When I began to write this, I wondered if this story was different to that of anyone else who has left home,'' Garcia says.
''The key difference was that it was so final. I would love to visit Cuba and can only hope that there is regime change before I die of old age. They have been in power my entire life.''
The experience of his first 12 years is the context for his vividly realised memoir.
''What really prompted me to get moving was essentially my children, who are 19 and 17 now,'' he says.
''My daughter was having a conversation with her grandfather -- half in English, half in Spanish -- about what life was like for us at this time of upheaval.
''I used that sort of childlike language and perspective because that's how I remember it.
''Your views change on some things but the essential experience does not, and so it's more relevant in that language.''
The term ''Orwellian'' is, along with ''surreal'', among the most overused in popular parlance. Garcia's book merits both.
It's Orwellian because of the Big Brother informer state he recalls, and surreal because -- seen in retrospective ''kidvision'' -- he imparts a sense of heightened reality.
''People who have not experienced that cannot imagine it,'' Garcia says. ''There was nothing you could do without being watched. There was the never-ending fear that something you might say would be misconstrued and reported. The social and political control was no different to East Germany.
''Consciously or otherwise it certainly affects you (in later life). Watching my own children, I probably appreciate the freedoms that we have here much more.''
There are indelible episodes in the saga of the young Garcia. He learns not his ABCs, but FRYs (''F is for Fidel, R is for revolution, Y is for Yankees'').
Garcia entered a school short-story competition with a politically sound yarn about a dying Vietnamese soldier who urges his comrades to use his blood-stained shirt as a flag -- only for Garcia's horrified family to learn that the ''prize'' is a trip to the Soviet Union.
Getting such episodes down on paper was a sort of catharsis -- as is laughter, something Garcia can't contain at last week's Forbes magazine revelation that Castro is one of the world's richest rulers.
''He went on TV and spoke for three hours, bringing the representative from the Cuban central bank, as though this guy was an independent authority.''
As for Castro's one-time finance minister, Garcia is only slightly more ambivalent.
''The myth of Che as a great liberator began in Cuba,'' he says. ''The reality is that as guerilla leader he was incompetent, as an economic manager he was a total failure and even as a thinker ... well, if you read his work as I had to, it's incomprehensible.
''What is not so hilarious is that people at anti-war rallies carry Che posters. The one thing he was definitely not was a pacifist -- he advocated very early on the violent overthrow of government.''
So, those T-shirts are a particularly sweet posthumous revenge. ''In some ways it represents the ultimate victory of capitalism over every ideal Che espoused,'' Garcia says. ''He would be spinning in his grave.''

Check out the post below
I'm a Liverpool fan, I have been a Liverpool fan since the Xabi Alonso days, the Luis Garcia days, those were some fun days. We already know what happened in Istanbul during those days. We starting having some dark days which turned into dark years but 2013/2014 was the year Liverpool came back.The Liverpool FC, I knew they could be came back. Though during the end of the 2012/2013 season Liverpool were playing great. Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge were incredible together, but here are 3 reasons why I think Liverpool FC can win the league without Luis Suarez.
Champions League 2005 / Istanbul
#1 Brendan Rodgers
There is something about this coach that just makes Liverpool special. He personally talks with each player that I have read about and every player talks highly of him. Of course, this is the case with many coaches but there is just something special about Brendan. He also led Liverpool to win 11 games in a row, so he is okay in my book. Also Liverpool are in the Champions League for the time in years and you can thank the coach for that. He also added new players which I will discuss later on and I think he is putting Liverpool in a good position to try and win the title. With a great coach, anything is possible and Liverpool have a great coach.
#2 New signings
Liverpool lost Suarez and it's something that will either make or break this season, but I think with the new signings, Liverpool should be fine. Adam Lallana is a great signing, Lazar Markovic is an incredible signing from Benfica, Emre Can is a great signing, Gerrard retired for England, so he will be more focused on Liverpool. Coutinho and Sterling will be great. I think this season will be a great one where Liverpool can win the title. Dejan Lovren is an amazing signing and the other players Liverpool got will be important for the tournaments outside the EPL. Liverpool have the players capable of going far in the EPL and players that can make a splash in the Champions League. Here is my XI for this season.
My Liverpool XI
Manquillo/Moreno- Skrtel – Lovren – Johnson
Gerrard – Henderson
Sterling – Coutinho – Lallana/Markovic
Showing they can win without Suarez
Without Suarez, Chelsea, the team below Liverpool only had 1 more goal than Liverpool in total. Liverpool still scored 70 goals. Liverpool did fairly well taking away Suarez. Luis Sureaz can't be replaced and played out of this world last season, but I think Liverpool this season will try and show the world it's still a good club without him and proving that should help them towards winning the title. Liverpool seriously need to win the title for Gerrard.
With a great coach in Brendan Rodgers and with the new people he brought into Anfield, I think Liverpool will go very far in the EPL this season. I know I am a fan, so i'm pretty biased here, but giving everything I know, Liverpool stand a great chance. This will be a great season and as a big fan, I can't wait to see some Champions Leauge action.
My Top 5 Prediction
1. Liverpool
2. Chelsea
3. Man City
4. Arsenal
5. Man United

In order to promote an understanding of different cultures, the Office of International Education and Programs actively sponsors a wide range of overseas academic programs. Oswego wishes to enable all students in good academic standing to receive part of their education in another country. Overseas programs afford students opportunities for intensive study in European, Latin American, and Asian universities. At the same time, Oswego recognizes its responsibility to provide programs on campus relating to key areas of the world not as readily accessible to traveling students. As interest increases in the world beyond the United States, the international dimensions of the curriculum will be further developed, including academic major and minor programs in international and area studies.
Credit earned through study abroad programs is SUNY-approved and is applied toward degree requirements.

Patty and her staff at Hana Hou could not have been nicer!! The food was very very good at the restaurant and all those we encountered were helpful and so very nice. The cabin was like staying with family. We could not have enjoyed ourselves more.

A perfect place for a quiet vacation retreat.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Naalehu Cabins. Patty and her staff are friendly, gracious and helpful. The cabin itself was clean and comfortable and has everything a person may need; Wi-Fi, coffee, cooking gear, even a back door and private yard, and as a guest you are welcome to use the laundry. If you are looking to spend time exploring the South end of the island this is the perfect place to stay. I will stay here again.
Hi Jodi I am so happy that you enjoyed your stay at our sweet little motel. Thank you so much for choosing us. I hope you had a wonderful vacation and Happy New Year to you and yours. Aloha Patty
Lovely place to stay for a few days!
We thoroughly enjoyed staying in the cabin. It was clean and with all of the amenities to make our stay quite comfortable! It was great having the sit-in area and the table to enjoy our take out dinners ...The noise from the restaurant was not distracting as it closed very early in the evening! We didn't mind being woken up early by the roosters and the morning activity from the townspeople... it actually added to the experience of staying in the heart of this charming little town. Thank you Patti for hosting us!
Thank you Monique, I am happy that you so enjoyed our motel and the little town we live in. You were a wonderful guest and are welcome back anytime. Aloha Patty
Take a ride down the the Southernmost Point in the USA, Ka Lae (South Point). Visit the Green Sand Beach. Cruise on down to the Punalu'u Black Sand Beach and picnic for the day. Stop on by our restaurant and grab a bite to eat and while you're at it, have some dessert from our award-winning bakery, meet many of our friendly residents and very hospitable, restaurant employees.

The Soda Club MachineFebruary 21, 2008 at 2:46 pm | Posted in Random Stuff | 1 Comment
Tags: Soda Club seltzer machine
Bill is currently in the middle of a DIY (Do It Yourself) phase, he recently got himself a seltzer machine from Soda Club. He also got an assortment of nifty syrups so we can have anything from coke to lemon lime to orange seltzer. You fill up the Soda Club bottle with water up to the top line, then you put it in the machine and you press the top button several times to carbonate the water.
I giggled uncontrollably when I pressed the button. The carbonation sounded like someone was letting out a big, juicy fart. I am even laughing now as I type this. This machine provide you with minutes of endless amusement as well as a very tasty bottle of seltzer.

The problem with SodaClub is that exchanging your empty CO2 canister for a full one currently take 10-14 days — you either have to guess when you're about to run out, or be resigned to going a while without seltzer. (You can't get a refill any other way.)

Once again our home was part of a massive Star Wars "film" created entirely by Isaac. Following what last happened, the Emperor had clone himself twice... three times the terror! It was a long and hard process for the Empire to find the blue energy that enables one to clone himself, which was created by the race of tall, elegant beings called the Kaminoans of Kamino.
With the rebels finding refuge on Tatooine near Jabba the Hutt's palace, the evil Prince Xizor betrayed the Emperor and joined force with Jabba. The Emperor's anger send out a massive attack against the Prince and Hutt. Leading the rebel to join those mercenaries for that battle.

A COMMUNITY council is desperate to stop vandalism at a cemetery.
During the past few months rubbish has been dumped in skips at Rhos Cemetery on Stryt Las and twice the skips have been set alight.
Because of this Rhos Community Council clerk Wendy Owens is worried arsonists will set fire to items on the skips.
One of the skips is next to a small building called the cabin and Wendy fears a fire could easily spread from the skips to the building.
Rubbish dumped in the past has included televisions, beds, household rubbish and a fridge.
Wendy said that not only does it cost money to dispose of items like fridges and televisions properly, but it also means the skips have to be emptied more often.
"This is passed onto the rate payer through the community council rates," she said.
"We need to reduce the amount of rubbish being dumped in the skips and appeal to any of the public who could give staff information."
The council has tried to stop the rubbish being tipped by having one of the skips locked up but people still dump their rubbish next to it.
Of the three skips at the site one is for rubble and two are for garden waste.
The council has also acquired new fireproof metal bins for rubbish and have has obtained advice from the fire service's arson reduction team.
Local police also held a clean up day at the cemetery.
"We just want to stop the vandalism," added Wendy.
"We don't want people to dump rubbish on roadways but there are proper places to go to get rid of rubbish."
If you have any information you can call 01978 840007.

Our new car!!!!
Jason and I traded in the Honda Civic today for a Chevy Equinox! It's a 2005, with 24,000 miles. It's All Wheel Drive, and also has heated leather seats, a 6 cd changer, and a sun roof!! We weren't planning on buying one until this summer, but they got this one in yesterday and it was such a great deal that we couldn't pass it up. Not to mention that it's the color that I really wanted - Salsa Red!
And lastly, Jason's artistic shot ....

This page contains secrets and cheats for Sonic Mania.
Know of a cheat or secret we're missing? Click on Edit to add to the page!
Several secrets can be accessed by collecting medallions in the Blue Sphere Stages. It is unknown just how many medallions are needed to unlock each secret. To ensure the unlocking of every secret, continue to complete the Blue Spheres games until all silver medallions are collected.
You can track the collection of silver and gold medallions in the Extras menu. Collect all the silver medallions to unlock:
Super Peel-Out replaces Sonic's Drop Dash ability. Instead of holding down and jumping to spin dash, hold up and jump to charge up a Super Peel-Out.
Insta-Shield also replaces Sonic's Drop Dash. Instead, when Sonic jumps twice, a shield surrounds him for a brief second.
& Knuckles mode simply makes Knuckles your partner.
And yes, you can even be Knuckles with Knuckles as your partner. A nice nod to the meme.
To enter the secrets menu, hover over the "No Save" file in Mania Mode and hit Triangle on PlayStation, X on Switch, or Y on Xbox to access the Secrets menu.
If you acquire all 32 silver medallions (gold medallions are not necessary), you can unlock the following:
This allows access to the mini-game used to unlock this mode. However, you can now choose either the Mania or Original design. Mania designs include new types of Spheres; like green spheres which become blue after touching them, and Pink Spheres which teleport the player to another location.
This grants access to the Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine. This is the same game played in the boss battle in the Chemical Plant Zone.
Here, Sonic Mania's soundtrack is available to listen to on demand.
To enter Level Select, enable Debug Mode in No Save Mode, then hold (X on Xbox, Square on PS4, or Y on Nintendo Switch) while entering No Save Mode.
- Press X (Square or Y) to change your character
- As Sonic, press Y (Triangle or X) to have Tails as your partner
Alternatively, on Nintendo Switch only, on the title screen, hold down B&Y before Sonic appears. Then, hold the + button when the "Press any button" text appears.
Other endings can be accessed after collecting the Chaos Emeralds with different characters. Defeat Dr. Robotnik in the final boss encounter with Super Sonic to reveal the real final boss.
Defeat Dr. Robotnik in the final boss battle with Knuckles & Knuckles to receive an alternate ending screen.

A Little Bit of My Mess To Make You Feel Better About Your Mess
There is very little in this life that makes me more anxious than when my house is messy. (I'm not talking crime/poverty/tornado/someone took my kid kind of anxious, just day to day anxious). I do believe, like most of us, that providing a happy, clean, safe, delicious food-filled home, is important. I want to give these things to my kids and my husband. I enjoy it, and I don't think that Mama's should ever shirk these things. To be honest though, it's possible that I'm even more driven to keep it clean by the nightmare scenario of someone showing up when it isn't. I can't stand the thought of someone seeing our mess and judging me for it. How lame is that?
This is particularly stupid because I know, in the teeny-tiny, rational part of my brain, that virtually everybody's house is messy at least some of the time. It's just life. I genuinely don't care when someone else's house is messy. Plus, if someone showed up and saw my house in disaster mode, most of them would probably choose between three options in their mind.
A) Think, "Eh, she has four kids. Of course it's a little messy."
B) Think, "Yes! This disaster makes me feel better about my house."
C) Think, "Why choose between A & B? I choose BOTH."
Now, I know that there is a random stray judgey-face that would think about their perfect house and hate on me for mine, but most of the people coming to my home do not fit into that category.
So, the message I'm trying to make myself believe and trying to make everyone else understand is this. Stop pretending. I know your house is messy sometimes. So is mine. So is everyone's. Do your best to keep it nice for your family. Never stop trying. (Can you imagine what it would look like if we did?) But stop stressing so much about it when you can't. It's not the end of the world, and we are all in that place sometimes. Mom, out.

I sure hope everyone feels better soon and the drain start flowing properly once again. I know exactly what you mean though. One little thing can throw our entire family's world off kilter. Then chaos ensues.ReplyDelete
I choose C (both).
In fact, we went to my SIL's house unexpectedly yesterday and it was a mess, totally cluttered. All I could think was, "Yesssss...her house looks just like mine."
MamaNieceA, my pet, the daughter I wish I had; I told you last week that you are darn near perfect and a wonderful wife and mother. We can't think of anyone in this world who could top you. I had a fun aunt when I was a kid and all she could tell me was that she loved and enjoyed her 5 kids (six if you count my uncle) and that when they grew up they'll never remember a cluttered house but they'd remember how much she loved being with them. And she couldn't hold a candle to you.ReplyDelete
Alanna, I love that you think that when you see someone else's mess. I totally do too. :)ReplyDelete
Duddie, that is such an incredibly kind (albeit exaggerated) thing to say. We love you so very much.

This paintings experiences historical Greek theories of actual house and position, particularly these of the classical and Hellenistic interval. those theories are defined basically just about the final philosophical or methodological framework during which they took form. unique awareness is paid to the character and standing of the assets. introductory chapters care for the interrelations among numerous techniques of area and with Greek spatial terminology (including case stories of the Eleatics, Democritus and Epicurus). the remainder chapters include particular reviews at the theories of house of Plato, Aristotle, the early Peripatetics and the Stoics. This e-book could be of specific curiosity for historians of historic physics, yet can also be of curiosity to scholars of Aristotelian dialect, historical metaphysics, doxography and medieval and early smooth physics.

The individuality of eastern tradition rests at the incontrovertible fact that, all through its historical past, Japan has constantly taken, tailored and remodeled various affects, even if from Korea, China, the South Seas, Europe or the USA, into targeted traditions of its personal. This booklet surveys the humanities of Japan from the prehistoric interval to the current, bringing jointly the result of the latest examine at the topic.

34 There was thus little in recent Aragonese history to suggest that in the last decade of the thirteenth century it would seek an alliance with the Mamluk sultan. By 689/1290 the situation had changed. The train of events linking Aragon and the Mamluk sultanate had been set in motion in 1262, when King Manfred of Sicily's daughter and heiress, Constance, married Peter, the son and in 1276 the successor of King James the Conqueror. When the Sicilian Vespers shattered the regime of Charles of Anjou, King Peter III claimed the kingdom of Sicily in right of his wife.

Chewie briefly dognapped
The bizarre twists never end when it comes to dog-fighting stories. In the case of Spokane's "Great Eight," the recent theft and recovery of three pit bulls for the alleged purpose of fighting has again brought attention to the problem of what to do with the animals.
The dogs will likely be euthanized if no sanctuary is found for them. They cannot be adopted as pets.

The Best Family Gift
Did I say extended party? Yes...I still remember those nights when the whole family sleep over my tiny crib that we couldn't even move to another position. It was always a lot of fun until one day...most of them were eaten by their own time at school. But today, they made time and even had this very meaningful and special shirt exclusive for the clan. And they also had me reactivated my facebook and will have it deactivated again before sunrise. I love these guys! Thank you.

Staff says goodbye to Moses the Mill Cat
He was definitely the most photographed cat in Sleepy Hollow, if not the entire county of Westchester.
Moses the Mill Cat, who faithfully greeted the visiting public for 15 years at Philipsburg Manor, died last week after suffering complications from cancer. Born sometime in the first half of 1998, he came to Philipsburg Manor as a kitten by way of Ossining, where he was part of a litter at a home near that of Peter Curtis's, who was Philipsburg Manor's longtime miller. Drawn to Mr. Curtis, the kitten kept finding his way into the miller's yard, prompting Mr. Curtis to ask his owner if he could take the curious cat to Philipsburg Manor. A perfect match, it turned out.
Moses, a grey and white domestic longhair named after basketball great Moses Malone, spent his days prowling Philipsburg Manor's grounds and buildings, much to the delight of many visitors, who invariably paused to take snapshots of the shaggy ambassador. (Google "Moses the Mill Cat" to get a sense of just how many feline paparazzo shots of him exist.)
Largely approachable, the felicitous feline allowed many visitors to pet him, making them feel as if he adopted them, if only for the afternoon.
Outgoing and personable, he had a friendly, if intense demeanor and a regal air. That being said, he was not above soliciting visitors for food, as the image here shows.
"Moses felt like he owned a place, whether our Manor or the vet's office," said HHV Operations Manager Rob Yasinsac, Moses primary caregiver.
He leaves behind many friends at Historic Hudson Valley, loyal servants who doted on him. Besides feeding and administering hyper-thyroid pills, staff also did their best to chase him out of the Manor House, the one building off-limits to four-legged visitors. Moses blithely ignored the prohibition when given the opportunity, enjoying a nap now and then on Adolph Philipse's bed.
"He truly was Lord of the Manor," quipped Mr. Yasinsac.

Hey Carola, it is a lively town! and once I started asking people " can I take your picture?" it is so cool how everyone usually smiles and says yes! Some will ask why and then you get to tell them something wonderful, like how you love the color of their jacket or how beautiful their guitar is, words that can make a persons day better ... andReplyDelete

This year just keeps getting better and better! This month, Jason and I got really fired up about our goals, and we have the feeling it's because we've started regularly listening to Dave Ramsey most weekdays (before, we listened sporadically). It's a goal daily to work on crafts, write or do something from 7 to 8 PM and listen to Dave. His show runs from 7 to 9 PM each weekday on WMUZ. We listen online at wmuz.com and stream the show. It's so affirming and encouraging! We highly recommend you give it a listen and see if it doesn't change your life.
Last month, I had struggled a bit with changing over to one big monthly grocery shopping trip followed by weekly produce shopping trips. Items ended up on the list that didn't need to be there, and items that needed to be on the list weren't. This month went so, so much better! We had such a surplus of money in our grocery envelope that we were able to stock up on foods at the salvage food store and eat out for lunch.
Speaking of salvage food stores, we highly recommend you give one a go and see if it's for you. If it's not, that's perfectly fine, but we are, overall, very pleased with the items we purchased mid-March. The chicken nuggets we bought turned out to be dark meat, and while we wouldn't buy them again, Jason (bless his heart!) is perfectly happy eating them for lunches and snacks. We enjoyed our experience so much that we're going to shop at another one when we're near it for an event in May - all with using money just from our grocery envelope of course!
We organized targeted areas of our home all throughout March (you can check out the first post of this right here), and while doing so, we needed bins, baskets and other miscellaneous items. That led to a rediscovering of how awesome dollar stores are! Make it a point to check out your local dollar store. Be sure to compare prices, but we think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
In February, we reported that we had made great headway on our savings goals for 2012. They have changed slightly since we posted them here, but our goal is to have one month of Jason's income saved (done!) and our vacation budget saved. We achieved saving our entire vacation budget for this year! We're pretty excited about that and talk weekly, if not daily, about how much fun our vacations are going to be this year. Vacations are all the more exciting when you know you have the money in the bank to pay for them all.
We were saving 10% of our income in a special emergency fund account. We have ceased doing that, as we are comfortable with the amount we have in there now, and we really, really, really want to pay off my two student loans. I have a little one and a big one (the little one is little in comparison to the big one, but I have to say that I think anything over $1 is big because I just don't like owing money!). Since our vacation fund is fully accounted for, we're throwing all our extra money at my student loans. We made some good headway on my baby loan in March and have goals for when we want each paid off.
There's been talk lately of people who just don't understand paying off loans faster than you have to. Some have said, "That's money you'll never see again." Besides the fact that we subscribe to the notion that you should pay off all debt you accumulated (we're sure there are some exceptions and can think of a few ourselves), student loans are another matter altogether. In most cases, student loan debt is never erased in bankruptcy (we feel the need to add that we do not know this from personal experience, but Suze Orman claims this practically weekly on her CNBC show and we're not going to argue with her). Paying off your student loans early benefits you. You're going to have to pay them anyway, why not be debt free as soon as you can? And you'll pay less interest! To each his or her own, but our personal belief is to pay them off as soon as we can, and nothing can deter us from this goal!
Any prayers you can send up to God on our behalf (to join with our own prayers!) are greatly appreciated to help us reach our goals of when we want the loans paid off.
Also, in March, we canceled our TV service with AT&T. We'll be sharing more about our thinking on this later in the month, but we're looking forward to a great savings on our AT&T bill!
All year, I've been sharing how my special envelope savings is going. I'm saving up for a special item to purchase for our household that is both fun and functional. I'm incredibly happy to report that I have now saved 100% of the item's purchase price! I was so excited when I can finally order the item, only to find it out it was backordered. For those who are curious of what I was saving my money for, I placed an order for the backordered the Bible Experience Electronic Bible. Jason loves to listen to books and I think this will be a great way for the both of us to listen to God's word while working, doing chores, etc.
I'm now saving up for another item for our household that we want - and I already have 38% saved for that item!!! It's truly through the grace of God that I've been able to save so well. I never thought I'd be able to save so much in a short amount of time with money that is unplanned (ie. doesn't come out of our paychecks). I fully anticipate that I'll be able to save enough to buy this item in April and already have my third and fourth items picked out!
Share with us: We'd love to hear how your financial goals are coming along and new tips + tricks you've discovered! Leave us a comment if you so desire.

|Christmas virtual bouquet
Now that I am retired, I seem to have blogs galore (just check the side of this blog) where I post pictures of Vancouver and of my trips farther afield. I also am a bit addicted to Facebook sharing pictures daily. So the whole Christmas letter writing process didn't really thrill me this year. I whipped the letter off and managed to keep it to one page. If anyone wanted coloured pictures they could check my blogs, and I had ideas of doing a better version that I could email. Well it is now December 17th and that hasn't happened yet-it may happen today but not sure about that.
|the day I was having my annual Christmas party
last year there was a snowstorm
And then there are the cards-I always buy my Christmas cards at post Christmas sales. I try to buy nice ones, but somehow they seem to be small, hard to cram papers into those envelopes. I keep thinking of doing my own and last year did all my overseas ones digitally (and that will probably happen again). This is time consuming to produce the first one but the recipients get them as real cards and I don't even have to put a stamp on them.
I have been torn between actually getting the Christmas cards to people before Christmas or doing them more thoroughly and mailing them after Christmas. And when I was teaching I often ended up writing them late-i think one of the best jobs I did was the time I was writing them on the ferry on a beautiful Christmas Day going to Victoria. I could justify my late cards because that way you got a personal note as well as that infamous Christmas letter.
|my dining room looking Christmasy
Well this is a warm up so I will let you know if I come to a resolution but right now I think it's time for coffee and an ocean walk! Meanwhile Merry Christmas!

We got rid of cable TV. I'm sharing this here so you all might start a prayer chain or incense-fueled thought-circle to get me through the worst of the withdrawal. And, yes, Of COURSE we have Netflix and Hulu and Amazon Prime, along with a smart TV and Roku. But, those are just technological Methadone to get me off the hard stuff. People, I'm hurting. Do you have any idea what it's like to wake up in the morning, flick on the television all prepped for a good, long channel surf, only to be grounded in the sand by the ridiculous 12 stations of antenna TV? I want my MTV!
Remember when we first got cable in our homes? I was already in my early 20's and living in my own apartment. My roommate and I could not afford the extra expense, so we'd pop in on people in our building who thought the splurge was worth it so they could get HBO, Showtime, and The Movie Channel. On those stations, we could watch the same dozen or so movies over and over! I saw On Golden Pond so many times that I took to speaking with a quivery voice and calling all my friends old coots. When I'd go to my parents' to do my laundry and score free food, I'd settle in and watch hours of MTV. Besides the hypnotic effect of the videos, the VJ's began to feel like friends. I, myself, had a crush on Alan Hunter. I'm sure you can see why:
When my husband and I moved into our first apartment, we decided to give Cablevision a try. Not only could we watch all of Ted Turner's various networks, we also got a TV station from Chicago, plus one from New York City! Sophisticates R Us! On Saturday nights, we could stay up late and watch USA Network's "Up All Night," a show hosted by Gilbert Godfried. It basically consisted of a Grade D movies with strange little videos interjected during the breaks. There was no Youtube back then, so these clips were a new medium that had us in stitches. It probably helped that we were downing a bottle of wine or two while we watched. For the full effect, behold the singing cows:
In those days, cable was a glorious thing. You could watch Tammy Faye Bakker's face melt on PTL, then switch channels to witness white supremist Tom Metger's go purple with rage on his show "Race and Reason." The Weather Channel turned Mother Nature into a superstar, and CNN became the first 24/7 news network. Ted Turner took credit for all the films produced at the MGM studios while trying to make the entire nation fans of the Atlanta Braves. Young children home from school with a cold no longer had to limit their TV viewing to old reruns of Andy of Mayberry and their mother's soap operas. They could watch hours of Nickelodeon along with a whole variety of TV shows in syndication. In fact, you might watch a television show on Monday, and find that same episode in syndication the following Wednesday. Life was good!
Then, MTV produced a TV show called "The Real World," and this changed everything. "The Real World" placed a group of young strangers into a house and filmed their interactions over the course of a few months. There were conflicts, romances, illnesses, and heart-breaking confessions. Probably the most compelling situation was that of Pedro Zamora, a cast member of Season 3 which was filmed in 1994. He was one of the first openly gay men to be presented in the media. He was also HIV positive. He was open with the cast about his disease, and viewers got to witness unscripted, honest responses that were startling and eye-opening. As filming progressed, so did the effects of his illness. The show completed filming in June and began airing in July. Pedro died in November. A new genre of television had been birthed - Reality TV.
|"This is not real life. This is just fantasy."
I think it was about the time my husband and I found ourselves lazily sitting through a program that featured a nun (Mother Angelica) leading a group of other nuns in an eery chant of the Rosary that we looked at each other and said, "Why are we paying for this?" I suppose you could call it divine inspiration. I call it fiscal responsibility. We cancelled our cable the next day and have not looked back!
|"There's free cable and wi-fi in the after life. You've got all of eternity to watch Property Brothers."

In The Tank (ep89) – Gov Regs Increase Car Prices, Amtrak Nonsense, and How the Gov Ruins Paradise
John Nothdurft and Donny Kendal present episode #89 of the In The Tank Podcast. Today's podcast features work from the Heritage Foundation, the Center of the American Experiment, and Grassroot Institute of Hawaii.
On Monday Donald Trump signed a new executive order baning immigrants from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen. So does the president have the power to ban people from a certain country, is it a Muslim ban, and is this temporary travel ban really necessary to protect us from terrorism?
The sky fell on Hawaii last month, all because carbon dioxide levels peeped above the much-hyped 400 ppm hurdle. Chicken Littles all over the world squawked into their friendly media…
The fact is this: humans have been genetically modifying plants and animals for millennia. Just because it was done more incrementally, and out in the field instead of in a laboratory, does not make it any less of a modification. The scientific method as applied to crop-rearing offers the same boons it has to all natural sciences, namely made it more rigorous and more conducive to human progress.

Latest Transfer Update at 10-04-11
van Gaal - sacked by Bayern Munich
Louis van Gaal has been relieved of his duties as coach of Bayern Munich with immediate effect, the German club have confirmed.
The 59-year-old was due to leave the club at the end of the season but his departure has now been brought forward, with the club fourth in the Bundesliga and struggling to ensure qualification for next season's Champions League.
Van Gaal led the club to the league title last season, his first at the club, and also to the final of the Champions League. His assistant Andries Jonker will take charge until the end of the season, when Jupp Heynckes will succeed him as the club's new permanent boss.
Club bosses Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Uli Hoeness, Karl Hopfner and the director of sport Christian Nerlinger held crisis talks in the club's headquarters and subsequently informed Van Gaal of their decision to go their separate ways on Saturday night after returning from Nurnberg, where the team drew 1-1.
"The board, director of sport and president of FC Bayern took this decision together," read a statement from the club.
"After the 1-1 draw in Nurnberg and the renewed slide to fourth in the table, and with the threat of missing out on the minimum aim of a place in the Champions League next season, this decision was taken in FC Bayern's best interests.
"Louis van Gaal's assistants Frans Hoek, Jos van Dijk and Max Reckers have also been relieved of their duties."
Bayern currently trail third-placed Hannover by a point and, were the season to end now, they would only be playing in the Europa League next season.
Since the final of the Champions League will be held at the Allianz Arena next year, failure to even qualify for the competition would be a severe disappointment for Bayern, who will now end the season without a single trophy.
However, Nerlinger thinks Jonker, who was Van Gaal's right-hand man, can turn things around.
"He enjoys the utmost faith within this club," said Nerlinger.
"We have faith in him and believe that he will be able to master this challenge.
"It was not just a spur of the moment decision to pass the responsibility over to him. We know how much he cares for this club and that he is happy here and enjoys the team's respect.
"He has shown that today. He is 100% convinced that we will reach the goals we have."
Rummenigge explained that there had been "no alternative" but to part company with Van Gaal.
And president Uli Hoeness said it was a decision which was a long time in coming.
"It all started getting messy when he (Van Gaal) dropped Hans-Jorg Butt and replaced him with Thomas Kraft," he said.
"That brought insecurity into the defence and we could not hold out for much longer.
"Football should be enjoyable, but there has been nothing enjoyable about football at FC Bayern for a while now.
"And to say that he had the players behind him was a myth."
Hoeness carried on by blaming Van Gaal for the recent crowd protests against his own person, saying the Dutchman's opposition to the planned bid for Schalke goalkeeper Manuel Neuer had created divisions in the club.
"The Manuel Neuer issue would never have escalated like it did and we would never have had any problems with the fans," he said.
"Problems were created which were totally unnecessary and which have ripped the club to pieces.
"Louis Van Gaal should consider what he has done."
Bayern now find themselves in the same situation they were in two years ago before Van Gaal arrived having parted company from one coach in the hope that the move will provide a spark to the team.
Jupp Heynckes managed to lead Bayern into the Champions League after replacing Jurgen Klinsmann in 2009 and Jonker will now have to do the same before Heynckes returns to the club in the summer.
"He held a remarkable speech in front of the team," reported Rummenigge.
"He said that will take over everything which was good, but that he will change things which, in his view, are in need of being changed.
"I believe that Andries Jonker has a very clear plan."
His first game in charge could be crucial as Bayern host second-placed Bayer Leverkusen next weekend knowing a defeat would end their hopes of finishing second this season and leave them only third place to play for.
And that is not something they can take for granted either as they trail Hannover by one point.
