I Wish I Had My Trumpet Here
I put on my sunny face and go out into the world every day. It's really easy to do here because no one knows me, therefore no one suspects that I'm faking it. And the people that do know me don't know me well enough to not buy it when I explain away my obvious discomfort with excuses of being "so busy" and "very tired". I'm not tired. No more than usual, anyway. And I'm not so busy that I don't have time to let myself get locked up in that eternal mystery that is otherwise known as my brain.
It's been pretty easy to fake it with my friends that I am only able to communicate with by phone because A) they're all super busy and therefore don't really have time to worry about me and B) I'm in "real" college now so I can keep the conversations short because I always have homework to do.
I don't really know why I feel the way I do…constantly on the verge of tears. I'm sure part of it is because everything here is so new and therefore foreign. But most of it, I think, has to do with the fact that I miss my Jack more than I ever thought possible. There is this huge gaping chasm inside of me where he used to reside. Now that spot is all naked and empty. I keep trying to fill it up with other things but I continually fail. And people keep letting me down.
I remember when I went through one of the most painful periods of my life – just about two months ago now – and I thought there would be nothing else that could cut me as deeply – at least not for a good long while. Well, I was wrong.
Being separated from Jack is like having an arm or a leg missing, only worse because I know that I am the one that chose this situation – I am the one that caused it. And the one person that I want to talk to about this, that I need to talk to about this, is not someone that I can share these things with because he is not quite nine-years-old and he will be better off not fully knowing the agony that I have placed myself in.
I need him here. I need to hear his breathing when he's sleeping. I need to have him yell at me when he doesn't get his way. I need him to make me laugh. I need him to share in all of these new experiences with me.
But more than all of that I need him not to know that a part of me dies each day that we're apart and the fear I have that I may not be able to find my way back to the "happy" from this dark, dark place. I guess that what I never noticed before was that while I was completely, or at least mostly, alone for almost five years before meeting Jayme & Shyler and the Browncoats, was that I didn't need people because I always had Jack with me and he was truly enough to make my life complete.
But now I have no one. Because the pseudo relationships that I thought I had been building are really only place-holders…people I have used to try and fill the void that being separated from Jack has left behind.
Jack has been my whole world for so long that now my life seems to have lost its meaning. Sure, I'm in school and working towards a better future for Jack, and intellectually I know that the separation is only temporary.
But what I do not know is if these sacrifices are worth it. I do not know that anything I ever do or accomplish will ever have any meaning at all if he is not here to share it with me.
I don't know what I'm doing here and I don't know where the real me went.

Our heritage is our identity, our roots and our future.
Nous sommes entrés au début du troisième millénaire. Le monde subit des transformations et des bouleversements profonds, tant du point de vue du vivant que de la technologie. Notre projet, avec THE EXPLORERS, est de dresser un état des lieux de tout ce que recèle le patrimoine de notre planète à l'aide une technologie de dernière génération : le 4K/UHD. Témoins du vivant, de la biodiversité, nos images sont une assurance-vie pour la planète. Elles sensibilisent l'humanité, tant aux merveilles naturelles qu'aux fragilités des écosystèmes. Au plus proche du réel, la technologie 4K/UHD vous plonge en immersion totale dans les milieux naturels. La précision des images, leur réalisme, le rendu des couleurs vous font vivre lomme si vous y étiez. THE EXPLORERS, c'est voir le monde comme vous ne l'avez jamais vu, et réaliser à quel point sa beauté est immense, mais aussi fragile.' | Trad('about_manifesto_intro_text') | raw }}
Earth is our home. We share this living space with an infinity of animal and vegetal species, surrounded by air and water. These elements are precious and frail. They allow the existence of something unique in the known universe : Life. Since I was a child, later on studying medicine, and in all the steps of my life in general, I was always fascinated by the miracle of life. The globe's surface can be compared to the human body, it is composed of 70% of water. This symbol is meaningful when you know that this globe, necessary to the existence of our species is not always treated well. Learn to cure was what I learnt studying : each bone, muscle, organ has a specific and necessary role to play that must be learnt. This formation contributed to guide me towards this big project : The Explorers.
The first step towards consciousness is knowledge. For a doctor, it is about diagnosing. Our planet is sumptuous. Its body of fauna and flora needs to be checked in order to discover all its mysteries, but also to be loved and admired. It is also a precious casket for our humanity. It is the eye of every human in the diversity of his origins and belongings that gives meaning to the work of The Explorers. The environment became a collective concern, which is a good thing. Men were designated as responsible for the ecological disaster. Can they change things if they are divided ? Obvisouly no. So, should we resign and whinge, or create new conflicts on these issues ? It's even worst. The Explorers set themselves the goal of making a report, doing an inventory of the riches of our world, to show its marvels without hiding the wounds, magnify the most spectacular species without forgetting man, both creator and victim of the mutations he inflicted on Nature. Listen, observe, ask, understand, share, here are the words that guide us. Our goal will always be to raise awareness so that everybody bears a bit of this common story, a story to build and to leave to future generations.
The Explorers'time clock has 12 years. It is the calendar we scheduled to make this report. It's the necessary time to complete a cycle of explorations and create the first exhaustive storage of archives dedicated to the riches of the earth. We are convinced that through the beauty of the oceans and mountains, the analysis of fauna and flora that are constantly changing, through people testimonies all over our great Home, we will heighten the will of man to look after earth and protect it.
Beauty is a motion that creates feelings. Through the inventory of natural diversity and beauty, we hope people will be moved, and will move.
The Explorers is a modern and visual encyclopedia, composed of an encyclopedist team of our time. Each grain of sand, each insect, each breath of life that we capture illustrates the will of all those, who, through history, participated in a better understanding of the world, to know it and transmit this knowledge. It is to us now, humbly, to pursue this path with the new lights of this century, to contribute to preserve our common heritage, a blue globe we have to preserve if we want it to remain a human place.

Talk status
This discussion is done as of May 16, 2017.
Neither this article nor FFmpeg tries to explain why one would choose one package over the other. I assume there are reasons, otherwise why have two different packages (politics notwithstanding). - dcljr (talk) 09:07, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
- Okay. That may be true. Perhaps you could do the research and enhance the articles to show why one would choose one over the other. There's nothing to discuss further in my opinion. --Maffblaster (talk) 18:34, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
- Maffblaster : When I make such comments, I'm hoping that someone will read it who already knows something about the workings of at least one of the packages — or cares enough about at least one of them to want to do the "research". Frankly, neither applies to me. But I can recognize the lack of useful content, so I flag it on the talk page. I imagine the same can be said about most of the similar comments around the wiki that you are closing as "nothing to discuss". Not all "open" comments are asking for actions from admins. Many are just asking for other, more informed users to weigh in. - dcljr (talk) 18:48, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
- Hi Dcljr , do you propose these discussions remain open indefinitely? In other words, should 'discussions' such as these remain open as pending, todo items until someone comes along whom 1) finds the open discussion, 2) has the time, 3) has the knowledge (or at lease researches until they find/have the knowledge), and 4) actually is willing to use 2 and 3 (the time and the knowledge) to improve the article then 5) their self (or someone else comes along) to validate the content as been added and close the discussion?
- I have a couple of issues with this. First, in my opinion, it goes against the point of having the talk template. This template exists to provide status of the discussion. This template was created to be used when someone reverts or doesn't agree with the changes to the main article by another user. It presumes work was done, but is disputable. That being said, I realize the Example given on the Help page shows someone asking for others to provide more information on a topic. Which is fine by me, feel free to ask away, but please don't use the talk template for it.
- Second, there are other templates that exist on the wiki that can be used to identify articles that are lacking content. You could use Template:InfoBox_todo or create a new kind of template that doesn't exist yet in order to use for the purpose you're desiring. Let me know what you think... it would seem that putting some 'todo' items in the main article would get a lot more visibility from the readers, and would make updates more likely to happen. Kind regards, --Maffblaster (talk) 21:39, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
- I started to reply to this, but it got too long (and, obviously, off-topic for this article) to post here. I plan to post about this at some point at Gentoo Wiki:Feedback where other interested parties can weigh in on the matter. - dcljr (talk) 03:42, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

$350 million in development outshines stalled projects
Earlier this year, downtown developers secured financing for several notable projects, sparking more than $350 million in new construction activity after years of fits and starts during the recession. Now, development of some of the city's newest and largest commercial and residential properties is building steam.
Peabody Opera House
Having first opened its doors in 1934, the later-named Kiel Opera House that once hosted members of the Rat Pack and touring Broadway shows fell into disrepair after it was shuttered in the early '90s. Now, given new life and a new name — Peabody Opera House, after Peabody Energy, the world's largest private-sector coal company — the vacant opera house adjoining the Scottrade Center could reopen by November 2011. That's after a long-awaited $78.7 million restoration and a stated 16-month construction schedule.
Financing for the project, which includes both public and private funds, closed June 29. The city of St. Louis sold $32.6 million in bonds to help finance renovations to the historic building. New York-based SCP, which owns the St. Louis Blues and the long-term leases to Scottrade Center and Kiel, and brothers Chris and Joe McKee will invest a combined $6.9 million in the project.
SCP and the McKees project the venue will host 264 events in 2012, with that number growing to 292 by 2014. They also forecast revenue of $16.6 million in the opera house's first full year of operations and expect it to grow about 9 percent a year to $19.7 million by 2014, according to information included with the bond documents.
The Chemical Building
Four years after a group of Los Angeles investors planned a $22 million acquisition and revitalization of the Chemical Building downtown, also known as the Alexa, the century-old building remains nearly empty.
Now, work on the building, which was designed in 1896 by architect Henry Ives Cobb, remains stalled following news that the building's owner, Chemical Building Acquisition LLC, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Sept. 28. Chemical Building Acquisition, an entity of Civitas Development, the owner and developer on the Alexa building, sought Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in the Eastern District of Missouri, further delaying the planned redevelopment of the 177,000-square-foot historic building at 777 Olive St. Civitas Development of Los Angeles, a joint venture between Heisman Properties and Crossland Capital Partners, also of Los Angeles, purchased the building in 2006 for $6.6 million.
The bankruptcy filing put off a planned foreclosure by Centrue Bank, the project's lender. In addition to Centrue Bank, other creditors listed in the filing include AmerenUE, Great Southern Bank, RubinBrown and local law firm Weiss & Associates.
Initially projected to include condos, the Alexa's redevelopment plan was changed to include about 100 high-end apartments following the collapse of the condo market. The building's original revitalization envisioned underground parking, ground-floor retail space and office space.
Park Pacific
Redevelopment of the Park Pacific, downtown's largest new commercial development, is well under way, the culmination of five years' work by developer Steve Smith.
The project had long been stalled because of a tough financing environment, but Smith's St. Louis development and architecture firm, The Lawrence Group, secured financing earlier this year after two years of negotiating with lenders. Construction on the building's $109 million historic renovation, which includes new construction of a six-story parking structure, began in May and is 50 percent complete, slightly ahead of schedule, according to Smith. The Lawrence Group had worked on plans for the structure since 2005, when Union Pacific Railroad vacated the 450,000-square-foot building at the southeast corner of 13th and Olive streets.
The parking garage is slated for completion by late November with the Park Pacific itself scheduled to wrap up next July. The art deco-style historic building, built in 1928, will feature 230 apartment and penthouse units, 45,000 square feet of office space and 35,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space when its transformation is complete. Smith said leasing activity will begin Jan. 1. The majority of residential units in the building will range between $875 and $1,750 per month, he said.
As for the retail and commercial space, Smith said he had seen real interest in both areas. "We're also confident that we'll have a restaurant in the southwest corner of the building," he said.
The project has created about 270 construction jobs locally, not counting the work on pre-fabricated pieces built outside St. Louis, according to Smith. O'Fallon, Mo.-based Paric Corp. is the project's construction manager.
Roberts Tower
Three years after construction crews began erecting the $80 million Roberts Tower luxury condominium building, work on downtown's first new residential construction in more than 40 years is nearing completion.
The building is slated to open in early 2011, according to the Roberts Cos., the project's developer and owner.
The 25-story glass and steel structure, which overlooks the Old Post Office Plaza along Locust between Eighth and Ninth streets, will feature 55 high-end residential units ranging in size from 1,400-square-foot, single-bedroom condos to more than 5,000 square feet in the building's two split-level penthouse units. Green features, including environmentally friendly bamboo floors and high-efficiency insulated windows, have been incorporated throughout the building.
The high-rise will also sport a Shula's 347 Grill, named after proprietor Don Shula, NFL Hall of Famer and former Miami Dolphins coach. The restaurant is expected to open in late December or early January.
Alberici Constructors is the general contractor on Roberts Tower.
Brothers Michael Roberts, chairman, and Steven Roberts, president, lead the Roberts Cos., which reported revenue of $135 million in 2009, up 8 percent from $125 million in 2008, making it one of the largest privately held companies in St. Louis.
The Laurel
Seven months after redevelopment of The Laurel building at 601 Washington Ave. began, the $142 million hotel, apartment and retail project is on track for completion late next year.
It was one of several large projects downtown that secured financing earlier this year after long delays. Now, the redevelopment of The Laurel is over 30 percent complete as more than 300 workers a day continue to revive the building, which has been vacant since a Dillard's department store there closed in 2001.
Amos Harris, president of Brady Capital and a principal of Spinnaker St. Louis, said he was optimistic about beating the construction schedule, which has the building slated for completion in the fourth quarter of 2011. Connecticut-based Spinnaker Real Estate Partners is developing The Laurel.
Trivers is the architect on the project, and BSI Constructors is the general contractor on the renovation.
Plans for the historic renovation of the 11-story building include a 212-room Embassy Suites Hotel, 205 apartments and 30,000 square feet of street-level retail space. The retail space will face Washington Avenue and Sixth and Seventh streets. The hotel will occupy floors two through five, and the apartments will be built on the upper floors. Harris said Spinnaker would begin marketing the apartment units next summer and begin leasing 60 days prior to completion.
Financing includes more than $77 million in federal New Markets Tax Credits from four sources: Baltimore-based Urban Action Community Development LLC; Washington, D.C.-based National Trust for Historic Preservation; New York-based Morgan Stanley; and Central Bank of Kansas City. Combined, the tax credits will provide $19 million in equity for The Laurel.
Ballpark Village
Ballpark Village, the ambitious and long-awaited mixed-use development adjacent to Busch Stadium downtown, is still in the works, according to the St. Louis Cardinals.
The Cardinals and Baltimore-based Cordish Co. continue to work on securing private financing for the $550 million development, which will transform seven blocks north of Busch Stadium into office, residential and retail space on the now-vacant site of the previous stadium. However, no start date for the project has been announced.
At a May meeting hosted by the St. Louis Chapter of CCIM (Certified Commercial Investment Members), a group of commercial real estate brokers, Cardinals President Bill DeWitt III said financing was coming together for the project and that the development team was in talks with city of St. Louis officials about possible modifications to Ballpark Village's package of $188 million in local and state subsidies, which date to January 2009.
The first phase of the project, slated for two blocks thwat face the ballpark, will have a new office tower and retail space, he said. The office tower will have between 200,000 and 250,000 square feet and could be completed in 2013, if financing is secured this year. The retail and restaurant space in the first phase could be completed in mid-2012, according to the Cardinals front office.

The Dentii Silver Edition
Published: 16/01/2018
A dentist and entrepreneur from London UK, Sunny Sihra, who has a group of dental practices in London and owns an online dental products business (http://www.simplyteethonline.com), is bringing technical and design innovation to the 37 billion USD global oral care market with the creation of Dentii (http://dentii.co.uk/).
Founded by Sunny Sihra and developed by business partner David Fowler from City of London-based INDEV Innovation Developments, Dentii is an integrated oral care system. It comprises top quality, sleek electronic toothbrushes with single-use biodegradable brush heads at the core of the exclusive range as well as being the world's most innovative brush.
The electric toothbrushes are manufactured in anodised aluminium and precious metal finishes including silver, gold and rose gold editions for maximum sophistication, with a bespoke range of wooden finished tops completing the look.
As back-up for those who travel a great deal, manual toothbrushes and travel cases are available in a range of wood finishes.
When connected to a smartphone app, the electric toothbrush maps the geometry of a patient's mouth, noting the brushing paths and pressure. This data can then be accessed by the user and, if they wish, their dentist, leading to better overall dental hygiene. The tooth brush is being developed as the world's first toothbrush that can prompt you to go to the dentist at early signs of problems, and with patented technology Sunny is keen to develop this into the world's first oral cancer screening tool.
Dentii uses single-use, biodegradable brush head which is interchangeable each time you brush. The disposable brush head is revolutionising the hygiene issues found in multiple use brush heads, namely the daily increased contamination by bacteria, fungus and chemicals typically found in bathrooms. The whole system is subscription based so you never run out of a fresh supply of brush heads, toothpaste and mouthwash.
According to the University of Manchester, the average toothbrush can contain 10 million bacteria or more - including E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus*. As an answer to this, the single-use brush head eliminates the chance of contamination.
The brush heads are made of natural materials that break down over time and can be disposed of in the same way as discarded food, or simply composted.
The brand is offering multiple subscription levels from base level packages providing single head support per day through to prescription level with two brush heads per day. Prescription toothpastes, mouthwashes, interdental brushes and carry cases complete the range.
Sunny Sihra explains the benefits of the new system, "By bringing together innovative technology, revolutionary design, fine materials and functionality, we provide the patient with a truly unique and exclusive cleaning experience. It's not just aesthetically pleasing but boasts 'world first' practical benefits.
"As a dentist, I strive to operate with the highest of hygienic standards and I am delighted to see this being reflected within the new range. This innovation represents a new era of oral care products that will make a significant contribution to the global oral care market that is set to grow 16 per cent to 43 billion USD in the next five years.
Pricing starts at £99.99 and increases to £299.99 depending on the level of the subscription package and type of brush.
The new Dentii range will be launched on Kickstarter in Feb 2018, with the first toothbrushes available at the end of the year.

The great thing about Werner Herzog (or rather, one of the many great things – great and weird and wonderful – about Werner Herzog) is that he doesn't really adhere to any set definition of what cinema is, its construction or what it should do as an art form. He simply gets on with making his kind of cinema. And Herzog makes unique films. There aren't many directors of whom you can say this – Powell and Pressburger for their romantic excesses; Ozu, at the other end of the spectrum, for his calmness and classicism – but Herzog's films look different to other directors. Isolate just a few frames from virtually anything he's made and it would immediately be apparent that those few frames were from a Herzog film. A film nobody else could have made.
Let's go further. Werner Herzog doesn't really adhere to any set definition of the documentary, either. On the face of it, this ought to be simple. Documentary: a non-fiction film that documents a specific subject. Hence "documentary". Hell, you can even incorporate fictional scenes – from historically accurate re-enactments to pure supposition – and call it a "drama-documentary". Easy to define, yet remarkably flexible in the approaches one can take. You can make documentaries that use only music and/or landscape. You can have one that's just a blue screen with a voice-over. You can be subjective or objective. You can call it a documentary but deliver a polemic (anything by Michael Moore) or a work of propaganda (Riefenstahl's 'Triumph of the Will').
Yet when Werner Herzog makes one, you might as well throw away the word documentary because no matter how flexible, how unconstrained in terms of cinematic language or construction, it's still a definition. And definitions don't work with Herzog, even here where 'Encounters at the End of the World' is ostensibly one of the Bavarian director's more accessible works.
I say accessible because it's not obtuse (or baffling) as 'Fata Morgana', not as impressionistic as 'Lessons of Darkness', and not as emotionally devastating in its search for what Herzog terms "ecstatic truth" as 'Little Dieter Needs to Fly'. In a nutshell, and Herzog himself sets this out in his typically dry voice-over at the start, this is what 'Encounters at the End of the World' is about:
Inspired by the stunning underwater photography of his friend Henry Kaiser, Herzog travels to McMurdo Research Station in Antarctica under whose gargantuan ice floes Kaiser's footage was shot. Herzog meets scientists, engineers and eccentrics and determines that he doesn't want to make "another film about penguins".
In fact, it's more easy to categorise what 'Encounters' isn't about. It's not about global warming, climate change or mankind's impact on the planet, even though the way Herzog films the wreckage of a helicopter or a juggernaut trundling through the shanty-like buildings that comprise McMurdo makes an environmental point as effectively as anything in 'An Inconvenient Truth' or 'The 11th Hour'. It's not about the nature of the research carried out there, even though Herzog gives over chunks of screen time to talking heads whose expositional verbiage threatens to become white noise. It's not about how you have to be a little bit crazy to work at McMurdo, even though Herzog unblinkingly films a woman contorting herself inside a piece of hand luggage, and two middle-aged scientists with electric guitars throwing shapes against the implacable expanse of the ice fields. And it's not about penguins, even though the most memorable shot in the film features one.
Ah, yes: the penguin. Despite his disparaging voice-over, Herzog can't avoid them and penguins totter inevitably into his film. An interview with ecologist David Ainley, in which Herzog blandly eggs the scientist on to a discussion of penguin sexuality (apparently a form of prostitution has been observed on the floes), segues into footage of a lone penguin breaking from its comrades and tottering off in the wrong direction. Ahead, hundreds of miles of nothing, rising to massive glacial peaks. Herzog's camera frames the frozen wasteland, the penguin receding to a tiny dot as it wobbles off to almost certain death.
I started this blog because of Werner Herzog. He was the subject of my first half dozen or so posts and more than a few subsequently. I'd be lying if I said writing about his work was easy. You can talk about the visuals – few film-makers have ventured as far afield as Herzog and come back with such a striking testament to the danger as well as the grandeur of the natural world. You can talk about the inspired lunacy of some of his projects. You can mention opera, rivers, flight, deserts, grizzly bears and now a suicidal penguin … but you'd just be writing lists of things at that point.
Towards the end of the film, Herzog speculates as to what aliens, arriving on earth long after the disappearance of the human race, would make of the remains of McMurdo; what questions they would ask. They would probably find the answers if they stumbled across Herzog's filmography – or at least start asking the questions that mattered. In its own demented way, that lone penguin says something about the human race that's equal parts poignant, pathetic and haunting.

A little bit of hope on a long page
by admin • November 19, 2011 • * Safe for Work *, Letting Go • 0 Comments
thoughts that spill into words, flowing like water onto the page.
feelings so clouded in doubt and judgment, nothing can describe it.
anger, pain, sadness, anxiety — a calm then washes over.
suddenly, for just one moment, everything becomes clear.
the solution to the many problems dawns on you like the rays of a first sunlight.
you take a deep breath, you feel stronger and ready to look adversity in the eye and stand against it, fight against it.
but just as suddenly as it comes, the world shakes.
you lose your balance and are kicked off your feet by something quick and unexpected.
a song, a picture, a memory.
all it takes is one lyric; one pixel; one smooth summer breeze and the smell of a warm day to remind you that it happened.
one thing to bring back the pain and darkness.
one moment for everything of yourself you put together to shatter.
so you've learned by now.
you brace yourself for the reconstruction of a tortured soul.
you wait, and you stay on your toes, and you take caution to not get too happy or too comfortable or too used to the idea of living your life without something because as soon as that happens, the dark and unexpected pain comes back up.
you feel it in your soul, it engulfs your body and it feels like it's happening all over again.
the feelings come flooding back, along with the stinging tears down your cheeks…the unbearable frustration and the heavy feeling on your chest that you can't seem to shake off…
you could let all that hold you back.
you could let the setbacks, the downs, the recurring heartache, the memories, settings and the attachments keep you in the past.
you could let it keep you chained down in the pain.
you can sit there and stare at the pictures and read the notes.
you can cry and cry and feel listless and hopeless and so depressed the pain physically numbs you.
you could reach the point of no return and live your life with the burden.
you can become cold, shut out the world and never open your heart again because of the one person that broke you.
go on, run back to them and see if they can heal you; go back and see if they WANT to.
surprised that they don't?
here's what you should do:
don't let it kill you.
you look adversity and pain in the eye and tell it that it can't hold you back.
prove to it that you will again be strong and powerful and independent.
because allowing those memories back, allowing that pain to take you to your knees again, is not learning.
it is not experience, and it is not moving on.
give yourself space, give yourself time.
change is beautiful, but only after it has finally taken place.
it's going to hurt, and it's going to be hard to let go.
but you can no longer do this with them.
they can't be here every step of the way to see you through this.
things will never be the same and the sooner you can begin to accept that, the sooner you will become whole again.
the sooner you will stop hurting and the sooner your true happiness will be found.
so delete the pictures, stop the music, make new memories with new people in new places.
run, play, B R E A T H E.
because after all, aren't we too young and beautiful to let heartbreak become a slow burn?

Awww c'mon Karyn, just say f*** it and do it!! Who cares?? Just have fun doing whatever you are doing and honestly don't give a thought to what anyone thinks, because to be honest more than likely no one is even thinking about you...they are only thinking about their own exercise program, tv show, or music on their MP3.
When I go to the gym, if I notice anyone, it's only that I've seen them before and you know me and my big mouth I usually end up talking to them if just to say hi, but I don't care what they can or can't do. Start working on your confidence and body...and if you can't do something...just laugh and joke.
You really should see my old butt in kickboxing with all these young fit youngsters...I just laugh at myself when I can't do something and whine to the leader that I'm old enough to be his mother and be kind to me..lol!!
And to this kid who is so fit and wears these ankle weights and jumps ropes all fancy and fast...I'm huffing and puffing and yelling at him..."C'mon Chris, you're a slacker!! You can do better than that!!" LOL!
Bottom line "Just have fun!!"

text: Hey. Well, today was pretty much like any day. ..except for the fire. Ya, our school actually had a fire! I thot it was just another stupid fire drill, but apparently there was a fire in the hallway by the NGC locker rooms. Stupid ppl. Apparently, (and I've heard MANY different stories,) someone decided to spray a can of AXE all over this backpack, and then set the backpack on fire and leave it in the hallway. I don't know if anybody did it, but the ppl who have P.E. didn't have 2 go in the gym today. I guess they still did something, but idk. So ya, it was wierd. Ok, so now Jess and Hannah and Hannah's b/f Ross have joined our lunch table. It's cool tho. It's nice to have other ppl 2 talk 2. They add diversity 2 our table full of smarty arty ppl tho. No offense, but I don't get too excited talkin about Physics, or Calculus(which I'm not in), or AP exams. However, today was Sarah's b-day and she got a balloon from Ivey, so that was nice. I remembered, but since we're not really close friends, I didn't get her anything. But I told her to have a wondermous day. So ya, mmmmmmhhhhmmm. lol. Idk what that was. Anyways, so it gets to where I think about Bryan less and less during the school day. It seems as though on Mondays (cuz I see him Sundays) I get like crazy thinkin about him a lot. But, the rest of the week it gets less and less. Until Saturdays and I think about seeing him the next day. idk. I won't c him this weekend tho. omg. I should try 2 do something w/ 1 of my chik friends. I doubt I'll do anything, so that would be fun! Hey chik friends, if u wanna do something, let me know. Anyways, I think I've written a sufficient amount for the day. I guess that's all. Lata. "Word!" (lol. That's my new word/phrase thingy.) Ally. . . ..out! ~Ally~

A analysis staff from the Okinawa Institute of Science & Technology has carried out the primary molecular courting on cockroaches to be able to map their biogeographical and evolutionary historical past.
They traced key evolutionary cut-off dates, stretching coakroach ancestry virtually 300 million years in the past to the late Paleozoic interval. Earth's floor at this era was an assemblage of continental models that had amassed the supercontinent of Pangea.
Pangaea begun to interrupt up by Early-Middle Jurassic, when the supercontinent started to rift from the Tethys Ocean within the east to the Pacific within the west.
The fossil report of cockroaches suggests that the majority extant households developed throughout the breakup and previous to the start of continental separation inside Gondwana (Between 200-135 million years in the past).
Team Leader Dr. Thomas Bourguignon mentioned: "Our outcomes point out that extant cockroach households have developed over intervals of as much as ~180 million years"
"Through reconstructions of the ancestral distribution of cockroaches utilizing the identified distributions of extant genera sampled on this research, we discovered proof that continental breakup has had essential impacts on cockroach biogeography."
The staff additionally estimated divergence instances of all extant cockroach households from the mitochondrial genomes in 119 species. Their estimations indicated that the final widespread ancestor for cockroaches appeared a lot sooner than fossil proof, round 235 million years in the past.
The research has indicated the significance that vicariance performed within the shaping of insect distribution and offers a brand new technique for cockroach biographical analysis.

When I was younger and less afraid
When the Berlin wall had fallen
And light shone bright in the world
I believed that good men and women
Could make a difference by telling the truth
And standing up for what they believed
I wanted to help people who were helpless
And see that right was done instead of wrong
I believed in God and goodness
That evil and injustice would be conquered
In our time.
We'd had the War to End all Wars
And the space shuttle begat the Station
St. Theresa, Tennemen Square
String Theory, spirituality
Then there was OJ and Michael Jackson
9-11, and the War on Drugs
Iraq and WMD, Cocaine Cowboys and BC Bud
Vancouver Stock Exchange fiasco,
Wall Street deceit and theft from above
North Korea and Ossama bin Laden
Global warming and Quatanamero,
Nestle Corporation, A dingo et my baby,
Private armies and private police
Always the Middle East
Til finally Wikileaks.
Someone's always making money
When there's a problem someone gains
There always are solutions which seem late
And pre arranged.
Bail outs, brown outs, burn outs
In a fashion that's not a brand
A community not just a market
Where Marshal McLuhan and Warhol stand
A nightmare in the morning
The time before the dawn
When the faith is always weakest
And it's hard to carry on
But the light comes in the morning
Transparency is all there is
When the lies arrive like locust
In the darkness of abyss.

Here's a real time ...pst 9:00 am...check on our default model with XIV sitting in for XLU. XIV is the VIX inverse so if markets are bullish XIV is high whereas if markets are bearish XIV is low.
Note XIV's current position at #11.
I'm using the new format again featuring the model TrendX and we should clearly be in a CASH mode to avoid the market drawdown that's currently underway. How far this "correction" will go remains to be seen.
By the way...several market gurus announced today that a new bull market in gold is about to start.

I had a dream
I awoke a short while ago from a very vivid and in a mild way, pleasant dream.
For some reason I was sat in the Lounge of the local Club that was packed (a rare event these days) out because David Cameron, the Leader of the Incredible Shrinking Party was available for questions.
In my dream, Cameron looked sleek, oily and despite the so right clothes, there was something unclean and unhealthy about the man. He reminded me of another shiny maggot, Peter Hain. Something about both creatures, makes the flesh of men creep.
I listened to him for awhile and as I did, I felt a cold icy rage grow and I launched into an attack from my position seated opposite(who knows who arranges the seating in dreams). I attacked him on his statements about how we could learn a lot from our Islamic Colonisers and then I attacked him on his expenses to pay a mortgage for a second home.
And yet from the faces of the club members, I could see that I was making no headway and then I stated that it was disgusting that a man of such wealth, power and privileged background should resort to dipping his hands into the public petty cash tin to pay for his T.V. license fee. Ears pick up, heads swivel. The license fee is a sore point in the Welsh Valleys.
The creature is doomed and skulks from the Club, just as I awake from the dream. Is there an hidden message in the dream? I have no idea? I rarely dream. It was actually Gordon Brown and Tony Blair who claimed their TV Licenses on expenses.

Ever since Nick Fury vanished at the end of Secret War a few years back, the question would occasionally pop up "where is Fury in all of this?". Something big would happen with SHIELD or Hydra or whatever and you would wonder what Nick was doing. With the Secret Invasion come and gone, Nick (like everyone else) is adapting to the new status quo. In this New World Order, Fury trusts even fewer people than he did before. That short list now includes his hand selected, unattached, agents and, as we see in this issue, the remnants of SHIELD which would not be absorbed into HAMMER.

The Avengers Free Comic Book Day

This past Saturday , coinciding with the release of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, was Free Comic Book Day 2009. One of Marvel's offerings was Avengers. This year it is a completely original comic, without any of the usual re-printed or re-purposed materials we have seen in previous years. The comic is simply titled "The Avengers" without specifying which adjective-designated team will actually star in the story.

Marvel's Dark Reign flows into this "Sorcerer Quest"* story line. The characters are all still clearly under the influence of Dark Reign's new status quo, but the world is moving on. Regardless of what conditions restrain them, there will always be work for Earth's Mightiest Heroes. In this case, it is an unbalance in Marvel's often overlooked magical sub-verse. The dimension needs a new Sorcerer Supreme and all the major magic players are out to get their hooks into whomever that will be.
What worked:
This book really feels like part of a larger universe. Doctor Strange is not an Avenger, but he is the Avengers circle. He was a member recently, and he knows these people. So, he is more than a guest star, but less than a cast member. He really feels like a friend who came by because he was in a moment of need. It makes sense with the logic of this book's universe. These people know eachother and can count on eachother.
The "call to action" in this story comes about unlike you will find in any other super-hero comic. There is no alarm bell, or shouting of orders. Rather, a bunch of friends sit around a (rather large) table and talk about the problem. It less about the immediate peril, and more about pride, humility, and loyalty.
If you just count the number of pages and panels where nothing seems to be happening, you would say this was a fairly boring comic book. But, when you read what is actually going on in those scenes, the story is never slow or dull. Those scenes have meaning because you care about the characters. But they are also, strangely, exactly what makes you care about them in the first place.
Luke Cage and Peter Parker explaining simple morality and team ethics to the high-and-mighty Dr. Strange makes for a really nice scene.
Billy Tan is really stepping up for the art on these issues. And though i love Chris Bachalo's work, his action can just get confusing. Which brings us to…
What did not work:
All of the action in this issue was in the demonic/mystical sections, which were done by the amazingly talented Mr. Bachalo. And though I really do love his work for its energy and beauty…he forces it. He will push a shot in too close, or exploe an effect too far and a panel or two will simply be lost.
Though I do trust this arc to pick up the pace in the next issue or two, it is off to a rather slow start.
*My name for it.

The Dark Reign event has created a lot of interesting new situations within the Marvel Universe. Books like this are not so much cross-overs as they are spill-overs, because there is not one central plot thread, but rather just new set of conditions that the characters are experiencing. So, where do all of these interesting new dramas play out? Many of them do so in their home titles. But,when there is not room in a given home title, the story spills out into its own title. For example, Hawkeye.
With this title so deeply enmeshed in curent continuity, it is difficult to judge it completely on its own merits.
What worked:
There was lots of cool action. From a super-hero standard punch-up with a rampaging robot to Hawkeye's own, more personal, rampaging near the end of the book. Raney's art seemed a bit stretched trying to include all of the large action, but as soon as it focues in on Hawkeye, we see that this is not the Hawkeye we might have expected and that Raney is the guy to show him.
What will this bok do, and where wil it go? The central concept has enough dramatic weight built right into it that I'll be there for an issue or two no mater what. Bullseye dressed as Hawkeye….no matter what he does, it'll be interesting.
So, I guess I have to judge it in the context of the larger event. I have to consider it a known fact, and pary of the telling of the story, that this title is an off-shoot of a main title. I know that whatever happens in these four issues, it will not be the full story of Bullseye. If anything happens to him, it will happen in thepages of Dark Avengers. That works in the title's favor in one major way. The serious messes that are made in this issue, just have to be cleaned up by the end of the four issue series. And, dang, how the heck could even the new Norman Osborn clean all THAT up? If the book were just about a nutcase on a rampage, I would already be bored with it, but knowing that the rules of shared continuity dictate closure…well, I just gotta see how they pull that off. Which leads to…
What did not work:
Maybe the mess is too big. It seems like the situation that has been created will just be too much to be dealt with in a reasonable way. I know that this is just me being a skeptical jerk…maybe I have been burned too often before….but as much as I am burning with curiosity, I am equally trepidatious of disappointment. Maybe it is a good thing that they have dug a hole so deo that I can't see a way out of it. No, it is certainly a good thing, that is what good drama is built on. Powerful set-ups in which a character MUST take decisive action.
The character is forced to become proactive, if not actually heroic. But, if by the end of this story, the clevernes of the solution doe snot match the direness of the trap, then the whole thing will, retroactively, become a disappointment.
For now, though, this book is really cool.

I have an Xbox 360. It is a toy, but a fun toy. The kids and I love playing games on it. A few weeks ago I got the dreaded "Red Ring of Death" on the box. Thankfully, I am covered by the three year warranty for this exact problem. So I send it off to Microsoft. Their solution is simply to send us an already fixed box rather than making customers wait to have the machines fixed. Great, sounds good.
So I get the new xbox today. In it is a note. To transfer my downloaded content to my new xbox I will have to connect to xbox live and redownload every single item (all 58 of them) to my new console. This will transfer the licenses and then they will work offline. This is HUGELY important to me, as I don't have internet at home. So without the DRM transfer, I cannot play many of my games. Incidentally, since the "media update" which allows it to play aac's and every kind of video I care to watch is also protected by the drm, the console is significantly hampered without this transfer.
Included in the box are instructions on how to do this. Connect to live. Redownload everything. Things should work now. Included is this line: "License restoration will only work on this console."
So, I follow the instructions. Works when I'm connected to the internet, doesn't work when I'm not. Looks like it didn't transfer. So I call Microsoft. They give me a bunch of useless steps to take, and it still doesn't work. They try other things, things that will probably create more problems when I get this home, and it still doesn't work. I am getting annoyed.
It's been an hour, and my xbox still isn't working properly.
Thankfully, this is only a toy. If this stuff actually mattered, I would be hosed. What if this was a license to my server? What if this was something that the church required to operate for a weekend? Yeah, sorry.
DRM is evil. This is exactly why. Paying customers are inconvenienced to the point of sheer frustration. I'll bet if my console was hacked and I had pirated all of this, I would be back up and running. DRM punishes the people who do things legitimately. Anytime anyone says "the future is online content" remember this lesson. If it isn't DRM free, it is likely to not work at some point, no matter how much you've paid. Once that happens, it's useless.
I hate Microsoft, and I hate DRM. Put them together? Bad news. Bad, bad news.

(CNN)President-elect Donald Trump's pick for secretary of education, Betsy DeVos and her husband are major political power brokers in their home state of Michigan.
The two are major Republican donors -- they've contributed a total of $50,000 dollars to the campaigns of senators whose votes she'll need to be approved as a nominee -- and in Michigan, they've spent millions of dollars over the years to lobby for big changes to Michigan schools, among other issues.
In 2010, they even opened up their own charter school on the grounds of the Gerald R. Ford Airport in Grand Rapids, which kids flock to from 40 school districts.
But her legacy here is not all flattering, especially in Detroit, where educators on both sides of the aisle say her push for school choice and a free market for charter schools has not worked for Michigan kids.
"When I hear her name and I think about education, I think about choice without quality," said Tonya Allen, president and CEO of the Skillman Foundation, and a member of a coalition to help fix Detroit schools.
Detroit is the lowest performing big city in the country, but over the last 15 years, the entire state of Michigan has declined when it comes to student performance. And many say the push to deregulate charter schools -- who can open them, close them, and where they can be placed -- has played a major role in that downward turn.
Nearly half of charter schools here are ranked in the bottom of American schools, according to the Education Trust Midwest. Twenty percent were given a "D" or "F" grade. And 80 percent of charter schools in the state are now operating as for-profit institutions.
"We focused on the proliferation of choice and creating as many charters as we could as quickly as we could, rather than focusing on whether the schools that we were going to open were going to be high quality," Allen said.
Take, for example, 11-year-old Judah Shelton. He has ADHD and was struggling in overcrowded public schools. By the end of the 3rd grade, he couldn't even write his own name. By the time he was in the 5th grade, Judah had been to four different schools. His mom finally found school that worked for him but that school is 35 minutes away from their house.
"It's somebody else's neighborhood that I'm traveling to while passing three or four other schools and about six or seven closed schools to get to his school in a neighborhood that I don't live in," his mom, Arlyssa Heard said.
In Detroit, which has been plagued by decades of bad public schools, there is bipartisan support for charter schools. But there also bipartisan agreement that school choice here is not working.
"It's not working for Detroit children, it's not working for Michigan children, and I would dare say it's not going to work for the nation's children," Allen said. "I would be really concerned if Michigan was the road map for the country. I actually think that we should be looking at Michigan and say, this is what we should not do."
A lot of the blame has fallen to Betsy DeVos.
"In Michigan she's viewed as the architect of the Detroit system for better or worse and obviously I and many others believe it's for worse," said Aaron Pallas, professor of sociology and education at Columbia University's Teachers College, "I think it's very much a market mechanism argument."
Since 2015, members of the DeVos family have given more than $2.6 million dollars in contributions to the Michigan Republican party and other candidates and political organizations in the state alone. Many here say that's had a significant influence on education reform.
In 1994, the DeVos family was instrumental in passing legislation that attached funding to the student instead of the school district.
The idea that money follows the student began to fail when the student population started to decline, but the number of schools kept rising. Now schools -- public and charter -- are in bidding wars to attract kids and the money they bring, leading to campaigns to attract students with iPads, bicycles, and gift cards, often times in poor neighborhoods around the holidays.
In 2011, the DeVos' education advocacy group -- the Great Lakes Education Project -- successfully lobbied for legislation that removed the cap on the number of charter schools and the number of organization that could operate them.
Michigan now lets more entities open charters than most other states. The result is that kids in charters in Detroit perform slightly better than kids in public school, but all are still well below the national average.
"We believe that there are certain elements of the charter schools in the city of Detroit that need more accountability," said John Rakolta, a businessman who also sat on the committee to improve Detroit schools. Rakolta, a vocal Trump supporter, acknowledged that he and DeVos were on opposite sides of some issues over the future of Detroit's schools but he supports her nomination and thinks that she'll do a good job for kids. He said that over the years, she's been a good advocate, even when they don't agree.
But not all are so cordial about some of the ideological disagreements.
"Worst case scenario is that Michigan is representative of the future of the rest of the country as well," said Pallas.
And deregulation is certainly on Donald Trump's agenda.
Gary Naeyaert, executive director of GLEP, of which DeVos served as a board member until last week, said she isn't to blame for Michigan's failing schools. He said Detroit has long struggled with public education and charters have only helped students.
"Are we satisfied with the education product that's coming out of Michigan? I would say that we are not," Naeyaert said. "What we have is a lot of people, a lot of chefs in the kitchen, but not a clear consensus on what we want to achieve as a state in terms of education."
He also says that DeVos is the perfect person for secretary of education if Donald Trump intends to keep his campaign promise of eventually eliminating the Department of Education.
"I think it's safe to say that her reputation and experience as an outsider in terms of the traditional education infrastructure reinforces his position that we're going to be doing things differently in the future than we have been doing them in the past, and I would say to people hold onto your seats."

Blank Slate
It's a strange sort of euphoria. It's not like anything I've ever experienced before - it was a mixture of relief, and of the world suddenly righting itself up again.
Right after we broke up, I asked God to give me a sign. Now God and I, we don't have a pretty good relationship - I don't visit Him that often, and while I don't question the tenets of the belief system, it's the human practices that I sometimes have a hard time dealing with. At any rate, so God and I talked. And during the course of our conversation, I asked Him to give me a sign and tell me that everything will be okay between the two of us. And I told Him to make it something that's glaringly obvious, to hit me right smack dab on the head. And to make it something white - because I wanted a canvas to work with again, something clean and new and pristine.
Today, when I espied his back at the tambayan, I quickly asked Maia to go on ahead while I took refuge at the library. And while walking underneath a sky miraculously free of rainclouds, I remembered that he was wearing a white shirt. I look down: and yes, ladies and gentlemen, I was wearing the only white blouse I owned.
If that wasn't a sign, then I truly must be dense.
And so, after going to the library and getting my books for thesis (I wasn't going to pass up the chance to be a good student for a change) I go back to the tambayan - and no one was there. So I text Maia again, and Dell just to make sure, and ask them if he's with them, and if he was willing to talk to me. Then I go off to French class, and come back and wait.
When he comes back, he doesn't have that hard, defensive look in his eyes anymore. We go to another tambayan, and as soon as we sit down, he hugs me tight and whispers in my ear, "Friends?"
And of course, I apologize like crazy and he tells me it's okay - and those were the words I've been waiting for all this time. And then we start catching up on each others' lives, and while there were some rough patches and awkward silences, I think that the universe is slowly righting itself up again.
I think I've grown a solid backbone after these past few weeks. And I think that, inspite of all these shit, what doesn't kill you makes you a better person. And at this point, I think it'll take a katana blade to actually make me feel any sort of pain. It's not a bad sort of numbness; just the kind that you can take shelter in, that you can tell yourself it's going to be all right in the end because you've been there, done that.
So tonight, the universe makes a strange sort of parallelism from the days of watching Lan Yu at Greenbelt 3 during Dell's birthday and now here I am again with him, Dell, and Caloy (another gay friend of ours) cruising along SM North Edsa and having dinner, talking and watching them smoke, and watching the last full show of HP3. The only part I was having difficulty with was physically orienting myself around him: how do you know if the distance or the closeness is enough? But I've missed moments like this, and I've missed these slippages of inanities and wisdom that comes from these people. I might not look it, guys, but I do listen when you talk.
We'll see what happens next. I'm nervous about this, but I'm also excited. It's a good kind of free fall.
Thesis Mode
Yes. The dreaded word.
Watch me plunge right in. I do have ideas already, and I've checked out a couple of books from the library that I'm hoping might help. I felt like Hermione Granger earlier, toting around at least three large books with me, as well as my usually acocuntrements of a large hardcover notebook and plastic file case that has been with me since third year high school.
But I think I will have to work doubly hard this semester. Apparently, the ideas floating around my head will have to be carefully thought out, and my other classes require a lot of reading/writing work, and a lot of brain power. English 191 by itself is a bit too much to swallow - who knew that teaching college English requires a number of theories that blend together education and the craft of writing?
Also excited about the structures of my writing classes - at least I won't be the lone fish swimming into an unknown ocean without even a forgetful Dory reciting "P. Sherman, Wallaby Way" to guide me. And then of course integrated French scares the hell out of me, but I don't have much of a choice, do I? Not at this point, when I know I'll have to graduate in a year and still running for honors. And because I know I won't forgive myself if I don't write a thesis that I can be proud of.
And of course, there's GRAIL, and friends, and work, and a life that I can finally lead and breathe into. And if this isn't going to be an interesting year, then God knows what it'll be.

Congressional Democrats bombing taxpayers with stealth budget lines. 24 May, 2007Posted by stoptaxing in federal.
From Robert Novak's e-newsletter
Budget: In routine party-line votes last week, both houses of Congress completed action on a Democratic-crafted budget containing the biggest tax increase in
U.S. history.
- Democrats' success in shaping the coverage of this tax-hike as a non-tax-hike can be attributed to Senate Budget Chairman Kent Conrad (D-N.D.), who has repeatedly insisted his budget contains no higher taxes. But Conrad's budget increases discretionary spending $200 billion over five years, while promising immense budget surpluses in the future. It only does so because it raises taxes on upper-bracket income earners and investors who receive dividends and take long-term capital gains.
- Conrad's denial about the tax-hike in his budget resulted in a Senate debate not on the merits of higher taxes, but on the existence of the tax increase. The bottom line is that if Congress does nothing, several tax rates will increase when President Bush's tax cuts expire in 2011. Moreover, the Senate's adoption of the Baucus amendment, to extend some of the tax cuts, was adopted and changed the revenue bottom line, despite Conrad's earlier insistence that there were no tax hikes in his budget.
- Conrad has defended his no-tax-increase claim with an exercise in statistical sleight of hand. He has been comparing his own budget to the President's budget using data from two completely different sources, which employ different techniques and operate under different economic assumptions. The result of this trickery is the appearance that the two budgets raise the same amount of revenue.
- Democrats in the Senate buy into his euphemisms. Not a single Democratic senator voted against the tax-increasing budget — not even Ben Nelson (D-Neb.), who broke a no-tax-hike pledge in casting the vote. Nelson supported the Bush tax cuts, but now he has voted to let them expire. But the budget resolution only narrowly passed the House, with 13 Democrats opposing it, nearly all of them moderates. Freshman Rep. Harry Mitchell (D-Ariz.) was among those not fooled by Conrad's rhetoric that there was no tax increase in the budget, as he said, "I simply cannot support a budget that allows key tax cuts to expire."
- The Democratic budget does contain a one-year patch for the Alternative Minimum Tax, extension of the increased child tax credit, and the bottom 10 percent income tax bracket. But the continuation of reduced tax rates on capital gains and capital gains tax treatment for dividends are not included in the budget, nor are the lower marginal rates passed in 2001 (these expire in 2011).
- Some market-watchers assert that the effect of the expiring tax cuts — especially capital gains — still has not been priced into the stock and real estate markets. This could mean a major market boom or bust late next year, depending entirely on the results of the 2008 election, on the perception that that election decides whether taxes on gains will increase in 2011. Gridlock or Democratic control — the two most likely outcomes — is likely to result in a correction driven by tax policy.
- 1. Alan Coffey - 30 May, 2007
We are in some serious deep doodoo if they allow those tax cuts to expire. It won't be the end of the world like welfare reform, but it won't be good either.

Wanna say hello?
Think Green is an amazing meet up group educating people on the joy of a plant based diet. They commissioned me to create three standing banners that express the spirit of each meeting. It was so much fun to draw the delicious food they make and capture the warmth of the community around it.
