Selling & Showing Your Home
Selling some things are easier than selling others things. And there is little debate that selling a home is the most valuable, demanding asset one can sell. And to sell a home properly whether it's an open house, private showing, or lockbox showing; your home should be properly maintained and in showing condition.
There are so many important aspects to selling a home by the book, and that's why it is so important to work with a qualified, competent local Realtor. Keep in mind every marketplace is different, but in all marketplaces showing a property is indispensable to the home-selling process.
In a lot of the marketplaces, home-sellers quickly realize the "can I see the home in 30 minutes home shopper" seems to be par for the course. The last-minute call to see a property bears the question "is it better to accommodate or hold off the buyer for a day or so?"
The dilemma of should the seller accommodate the last-minute call to see the property is real. That's why it is important for the sellers and their agents to have a tangible strategy in place. With that said. The seller should be as flexible as possible when it comes to showings. Although some boundaries should be set as the "can I see it in 30 minutes home shoppers" are usually not the most serious or desirable buyers.
Before showing a home, it is best for seller and agent to strategize and understand the best options which include open houses, private showings, and lockboxes.
Open houses
The proverbial open house is the foundation of the real estate industry. An open house is where a lot of potential buyers cruise listings on Saturday and Sunday and make their first exertion into the real estate market. Attending open houses allow folks to get a sense and handle on the marketplace with very little commitment to the home buying process (and or) the need for an agent.
One of the biggest benefits of an open house is that it allows for good exposure. An open house is where a lot of potential home buyers can view the property within several hours of time.
Private showings
More than likely, a lot of serious buyers will have seen your home during the open house. And when they are ready to make a move and write an offer, that's when they want to see your home privately. For private showings, the potential buyer will have their agent set the appointment and accompany them for the showing.
The private showing is also a good point in time for the seller's agent to shine and answer questions the buyer or their agent may have during the appointment. Not only does the private showing give the seller's agent to be the eyes and ears for the seller, but the private showing also offers the buyer a very intimate look through a more critical lens.
Lockbox showings
There was a time when there was no such thing as a lockbox. But since then the lockbox has come a long way making the lockbox showing an easy and safe way for buyers and their agents to see a home that's for sale.
So what is a lockbox? The lockbox is a secure device used by Realtors which gets placed on the front door, on the side of the home, at the gas meter or somewhere on the property. Inside the lockbox will be the keys to the home. The lockbox records access by each agent. Simply, the lockbox enables the buyer's agent to access entry into the home quickly. Although not necessary, lockbox showings work especially well for homes that are vacant.
Hopefully, I've covered the basics of showing your home when selling. When it comes to showing your home not only should sellers and their agents have a plan, but also buyers and their agents should be mindful of the home-viewing process, too. And besides sellers and their agents having a showing plan, serious sellers should maintain and show their home in its "staged" appearance at all times.

The Colorado River – which is the lifeblood to 40 million people and no less than 22 tribes – stands to fall at least 3.2 million acre-feet short of its users' needs by 2060. And even the most ambitious water-saving strategies won't fully ease the strain.
That's the main finding of a comprehensive, years-long effort called the Colorado River Basin Water Supply and Demand Study, led by the Bureau of Reclamation and the seven Colorado River Basin states, and unveiled Wednesday, December 12 by Interior Secretary Ken Salazar. Myriad stakeholders, including tribes, agricultural users, municipal and industrial water brokers, power users, and conservation and recreation groups contributed to the study partly by assessing their water needs into the future. Those collective water needs were rolled into various futuristic scenarios of climate change and population growth, and compared with several comprehensive proposals about ways to ease demands on the already stressed Colorado River system.
"There's no silver bullet to solve the imbalance between the demand for water and the supply in the Colorado River Basin over the next 50 years – rather, it's going to take diligent planning and collaboration from all stakeholders," said Salazar, in a press release about the study's findings. "Water is the lifeblood of our communities, and this study provides a solid platform to explore actions we can take toward a sustainable water future."
Water rights along the Colorado are generally complex, carrying a mix of seniority dates and access issues. Tribal rights to the Colorado are arguably even more intricate, because not all tribes in the watershed have gone through the legal process of turning aboriginal claims into actual water rights.
George Arthur, Navajo, is chairman of the Ten Tribes' Partnership and president of the Colorado River Water Users Association. In an e-mailed statement, Arthur said the partnership and its members appreciate the Bureau of Reclamation and others who made a significant effort to work with tribes.
The study's signature finding is that the average imbalance in future supply and demand is projected to be greater than 3.2 million acre-feet by 2060; one acre-foot of water is roughly the amount of water used by an average household in a year. The report predicts that demand for Colorado River water will reach 18.1 million acre-feet if population grows to a projected 49 million people by the year 2060. That's the slow growth scenario; the basin supports a population now of about 40 million people. In a rapid population growth scenario – an increase to 77 million people – demand would rise to about 20.4 million acre-feet. Either way, the numbers don't work.
Historically, about 15 million acre-feet flowed through the Colorado River. After more than a decade of drought, the basin has been hosting just 12 million acre-feet of water a year.
The report delves into ample detail about what the disparities could mean for the region.
No matter what, according to the study, some water uses will take hits in the coming decades. Colorado River flows generally, for example, are projected to fall below ecologically advisable levels about a third of the time, no matter what conservation strategies are employed. Between 14 and 42 percent of the time – depending on which water-saving strategies get implemented – water in Lake Mead is likely to dip below levels that sustain effective power generation at Hoover Dam; between 30 and 57 percent of the time, Lake Mead levels will be too low to sustain shoreline recreational facilities. Water deliveries to the Upper Basin – which includes Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming – will be compromised between 2 and 7 percent of the time. Water deliveries to the Lower Basin states – Nevada, Arizona and California – will be compromised between 3 and 19 percent of the time.
All of the predictions consider supply and demand variables like projected climate change and population growth.
According to one climate change scenario, for example, the Colorado's flow at Lees Ferry – where the Colorado enters Grand Canyon National Park – is projected to decrease by about 9 percent over the next 50 years.
"Droughts lasting 5 or more years are projected to occur 50 percent of the time over the next 50 years," the report says of that scenario. "Projected changes in climate and hydrologic processes include continued warming across the Basin, a trend towards drying … increased evapotranspiration and decreased snowpack as a higher percentage of precipitation falls as rain rather than snow and warmer temperatures cause earlier melt."
The predictions also assume varying combinations of conservation strategies will be put into place. The most dire numbers assume that nothing is done. The most optimistic numbers assume we develop and employ sophisticated techniques like desalination, the reuse of wastewater, watershed management, water importation and assorted conservation methods.
I really just hope that South Africa will not wait unil it is too late to start implementing some serious water saving systems in the household. Rainwater harvestng is a must. We must must must extract less water from our rivers and estuaries during the rain season. Recycling of grey water should be compulsory in all these countries where water shoratges are evident.

Not only were the precious metals (you realize there's good reason they call them that) up substantially, but, on the heels of more
Sure, as famed investor Marc Faber pointed out in a recent interview that holding stock is better than holding corporate bonds because you at least have "something" to show at the end of a calamity, but for holders of those paper (now electronic) stock certificates, the calamity hasn't even begun. There will be casualties, even though the financial press, led by cheerleading morons on CNBC, won't bother to shed light on many details.
It was an enjoyable day for those sitting home in robe and slippers, relaxing as their gold and silver holding appreciated. Gold shot past its previous all time high of $1,421.00 en route to a fresh closing at $1,431.20, up a rock-solid $21.30. Silver, already having made a new 31-year high on Monday, eclipsed that mark with another gain of 61 cents, finishing in New York at $34.42.
The downside was that gold bugs and silver surfers will have to pay more to flee the country with their hoard, since crude also popped to new recent highs, with West Texas Intermediate up $2.66, to $99.63 on the NYMEX.
As for the stock suckers, read 'em and weep:
Dow 12,058.02, -168.32 (1.38%)
NYSE Composite 8,315.85, -122.70 (1.45%)
Declining issues pounded back advancers, 4950-1638, a ratio of better than 3:1. On the NASDAQ, there were 96 new highs, 33 new lows. The NYSE saw 189 new highs and 17 new lows. Volume, as has been the case on all losing sessions, was elevated.
NASDAQ Volume 2,239,243,250
NYSE Volume 5,358,425,500
What really should be worrying the stock jocks at this juncture are three things: 1. economic data has been strong, but stocks haven't followed, suggesting that "good" news is already priced in; 2. the vix has taken a couple of enormous jumps on recent down days, and, possibly the biggest worry of all, 3. the Dow and S&P each experienced today a double engulfing day, in which the day's highs and lows took out the highs and lows of the previous two sessions. That scenario is a textbook indicator, chart-wise, for a directional reversal. If such is the case, the hints that something is not all right with stocks over the past two weeks is really foreshadowing for a classic 10-15% correction.
These indications are all occurring against the backdrop of insolvent banks, fiat money depreciation, global civil unrest and non-stop monetary stimulus by the Fed, the ECB and the CCB (China Central Bank).
Important data is dead ahead for marketeers. On wednesday morning, the widely discredited ADP Private Employment Survey for February is released, and on Friday, the laughable BLS Non-farm payroll report. Both data sets will be released upon the usual suspects prior to market opening.
Stay tuned. The fun has just begun.

What does an INFJ look like under extreme stress (in your own words)6w7 Sx/Sp (621 or 612. Same diff :p).
I sometimes just shut down. And it doesn't have to be extreme stress. It can be extreme stress and being hungry. I start completely losing my ability to concentrate and my Se drops like a rock. Quivering puddle of melting Jello."There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

I'm talking EXTREME stress. I've read the shadow comes out to play. Negative coping patterns etc. To be honest, I shut down (super quiet) when healthy or less stressed. I never shut down depression wise. Just more numb if I'm depressed.6w7 Sx/Sp (621 or 612. Same diff :p).
What is extreme stress? Was that like when my step-dad suddenly died when I was twelve? I was really just kind of shocky off and on for months. When we were being evicted when I was pregnant and had a one year old, I think I kind of shut down emotionally out of despair and tried to just make sure my daughter had enough to eat. I kept breast-feeding her even though I was underweight and pregnant because I knew as long as she was nursing she likely wouldn't be malnourished. I haven't been in a war or anything like that.
Personally, I do just about everything in my power to avoid stress."There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.

Try being a missionary envisioning something not becoming true or what you expect, and staying on it because you know there are rewards (Se based) that are guaranteed after you finish the two years. Then deciding it wasn't worth it (Ni fighting Se) and choose to leave. The leader scares you off if you leave and stuck being miserable with companions changing every 3 months. Then trying to find outside sources (have to break the rules of the mission to do that) and feel lonely. My situation is that I have 6 months left, and I know it's coming, but it's feeling like forever and haven't found a great stress reliever for my Se because I have an injured foot.
Having a type 9 too makes it seem like you hate conflict and have a hard time to stick up for yourself. I am very "flight" response-ish. And I have a difficult time getting along with everyone.
Sound helpful @NK258 ?
I'm going by my own experience:
I believe very very open because of leaning towards not hiding any information for desperation of help. Sometimes will hide from people unnecessarily and want some alone time but painfully yearning for friends or somebody they like. I think they start to dream very far off of what is the perfect place or person. Using Ni and Se in their negative sides never coming up to a conclusion. Feels like constantly misunderstood. 9's can get very passive aggressive, eventually where they just blow it and throwing insults feeling very 8ish.
Breaking rules just because they don't think they can find the purpose in it. Doesn't encourage others but wants other to respect his decisions. Yearning for perspectives of others so they can keep the peace. Se causes to overindulge in sensual pleasures, I overeat and get tough on myself for overeating, loose spending. 9 sx can also just want to desperately find that one and then close off communication from everyone else as their vision.
Get surprised if noticed. I usually don't think people talk to me and when they do, it can be quite uplifting. Constant pull of being different but being with everyone. Suicidal thoughts may occur too. "Maybe if I am just gone, I will be one less annoyance for everyone" Very 4ish like.
That sort of stuff.

I agree with the part of this discussion that focuses on enneagram over cognitive processes for the question at hand. Under extreme stress, I get extremely vigilant and can get completely focused on doing whatever I need to do to protect those I love and myself from any physical or other dangers in the world around us - enneagram 6 (eta and the 5 wing shows up in my focus on gathering as much information as I can/becoming as informed as possible as part of that response).
I get sick to my stomach, and not hungry or eat to calm that bad feelings I have, become overindulgent, need way more sleep, and become somewhat avoidant. I don't have energy left over to do anything creative or extra.
I do everything I can to avoid getting into situations like that. If it is interpersonal, I try as quickly as I can to address it directly or else get out of the situation for good if it seems that we are at an impasse.
I isolate myself, eat way too little or way too much, can never bring myself to leave the house, lots of crying jags. I basically become non-functioning.

Alright y'all out there. It's about time I crept back out of my hole and post something new on your favorite AC/DC Bedlam in Belgium Blog. Last Saturday, Brian Johnson joined the Greg Billing Band on stage for a concert at the Irish Rover Pub in Sarasota, Florida. It's not the first time that Brian shakes a leg in Florida with his friend Greg Billing. About 3 years ago, in December 2007, he and Cliff Williams performed Back in Black (first video). Brian has also been singing a Beatles song with them.
As we were showing serious signs of AC/DC cold turkey after the Berlin show, we always wondered how the boys would deal with an abrupt end of a long tour. In the video below, Brian sings an 'intimate' version of DDDC. Attentive viewers will find out that the Black Ice tour left its marks as Brian clearly got impregnated with the big stadium choreography (and the bind texts - "we've got something special"). The band plays a good tune and Brian sang his heart out. Enjoy! Update: YSMANL (thanks Boogie!) / WLR (thanks Boogie bis!).

She would have gone earlier in the week, but when I found out she would have to stay over night I rescheduled. I needed time to get my mind around Maggie being all by herself at the vet overnight... (probably scared).
Harley never got "fixed" because I could never bring myself to call and make the appointment. All the "what ifs" kick in to high gear. But according to Ryan, we can't think like that.
So in the morning I will drop Maggie off for surgery and more than likely get suckered into the more expensive "care plan."
I will keep you posted.

Supporting the veteran travelers' truism that the earliest flights of the day are the most on time, new numbers prove that, if you were flying between 6:00am and 7:00am this February, your flight almost certainly took off on time.
The Air Travel Consumer Report, issued by the Department of Transportation every month, found that, with some minor variation, flights from major US airports took off on time 92.7% of the time in that hour, gradually getting worse hour by hour until reaching a nadir of 73.9% exactly 12 hours later, between 6:00pm and 7:00pm. In fact, every single flight out of Honolulu (HNL) between 6:00am and 7:00am that month was on time.
It's not a quirk of 2018, either. The same held true in 2017 and 2016, too. One theory is that earlier flights are less likely to hit turbulence from afternoon thunderstorms (though whether that works out practically is disputed.) Another is that delays stack up throughout the day, and the cumulative delays hit later flights harder.
Not surprisingly, several airports in the Midwest and Northeast suffered when it came to being timely in a month that ended with the beginning of a series of nor'easters that fouled up flight routes and turned March into a frozen hell in much of the States. Frequently snowbound Midway (MDW) seemingly took the worst of the winter weather, with only 66.1% of all flights departing on time (compared to an 80.7% overall average and 89.8% overall for sunny Honolulu, the king of punctuality.
What is surprising is that the worst hours to fly anywhere among the 30 largest airports across the country came in an airport nowhere near the winter storms: Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX). Flyers departing from the Valley between 7:00pm and 11:00pm were more likely to be delayed than not, with the 8:00pm hour hitting a nationwide low of 41.8% on-time takeoffs.
The reason? One of Sky Harbor's three runways was taken out of service for nearly all of February, with the two remaining runways taking on the additional traffic burden and bearing the concomitant delays, which seem to have built up daily as the nights wore on. (In 2016 and 2017, Phoenix had noticeably better-than-average on-time departures.)

I love my kids. I also love having a space where my kids can run around, play and learn. But as an interior designer, I've never loved the idea of my kids' carefree lifestyle overhauling my adult living space — and I know I'm not alone in that, so here are a few home-keeping tips I've used to keep a home that is comfortable, clean and kid-friendly.
Baskets, baskets, baskets
Let's debunk the myth that toy storage has to be ugly (or excessive). I use solid-colored woven baskets with lids to house all my boys' toys. Family homes today can get too overcrowded with toys and playful knickknacks. But be honest: Kids don't really play with that many things at one time, do they?
Lessen the mess by keeping only what your kids love most, and donate the rest to charities like Baby2Baby. Better yet, start a toy exchange with your close friends. When it comes to the big toys and games, it's either in the basket or it's bartered — simple as that.

Remember, mom, you're the boss. You're responsible for what comes in and out of your home. Kids like collecting things. If those items are plastic, multicolored toys, those will potentially be strewn across your space. To avoid this, I tapped into something they enjoy: making necklaces and collecting crystals. I love that we can go to a local farmers market and collect beautiful jewels together. The boys feel empowered that they can select the ones they love and create something with it. Meanwhile, I'm thrilled the pieces don't look tacky lying around my home. Fashion and function really can coexist.
One of my best-kept secrets for design clients who have kids? Buy white canvas couches and purchase an extra set of white canvas covers. I know this sounds crazy, but a white canvas couch cover can be switched out as needed. Canvas wears exceptionally well, so your sets won't look different. No more stressing if the kids spill things on it right before your mother-in-law stops by. Simply switch it, wash the soiled cover, and keep your peace of mind.
Another great reason to go white? You can bleach whatever gets stained. Whether it's baby food or baby poo, a little bleach will not only handle the blemish, but it won't discolor the furniture. I've never met a stain on a white surface that bleach couldn't tackle.
When I had my first child, I knew my son would need a good high chair. What I didn't need was a piece of furniture with cartoon caricatures that existed in the space I used daily for both kid and adult functions. I chose to splurge on a high chair that would meet both my child's needs and my own. The Bloom Baby high chair's sleek design and avant-garde style didn't look like a child had taken over my home. And because it converted, I was able to use it from infancy through my son's toddler years. Small choices like that can make all the difference in your home's appearance.
More: A Spring-Cleaning Checklist for Every Room in Your Home
Kid art is a quintessential visual element of any family home. Ditch the tape and magnets, and instead, exhibit your young artist's work in a photo frame. I keep five Ikea frames (that come with a matte) for my kids' artwork. The frames were inexpensive, and I can rotate their art whenever they create something new. While I don't want to "decorate" my home with kiddie originals all over the place, I do want my boys to feel valued and to know that I appreciate their artistic expression.
Moms understand that time is often too precious to spend it maintaining greenery around the home. Take the pressure off and use artificial ones. Once upon a time, I would have never considered or suggested that, but good artificial plants, like orchids, can beautify your home without the mess.
It's not difficult to have a home that maintains a kid-friendly feel while keeping an adult appeal and atmosphere at the same time. After all, mom, you deserve both beauty and comfort.

MIT Stochastics & Statistics Seminar Series: Eric Tchetgen Tchetgen
Title: Next Generation Missing Data Methodology
Abstract: Missing data is a reality of empirical sciences and can rarely be prevented entirely. It is often assumed that incomplete data are missing completely at random (MCAR) or missing at random (MAR), When neither MCAR nor MAR, missingness is said to be Not MAR (NMAR). Under MAR, there are two main approaches to inference, likelihood/Bayesian inference, e.g. EM or MI, and semiparametric approaches such as Inverse probability weighting (IPW). In several important settings, likelihood based inferences suffer the difficulty of relying on modeling assumptions that may conflict with the model of substantive interest, while semiparametric methods clearly avoid this problem by relying on a model of the nonresponse process. In the common setting where missingness patterns are nonmonotone, it is difficult to model the nonresponse process without imposing an assumption stronger than MAR. This gap in the literature is resolved and a novel approach is proposed for modeling a nonmonote nonresponse process under MAR for use with IPW. Despite this solution, it is however argued that MAR is hard to justify on causal grounds when missingness is nonmonote, and therefore, new methods are considered for identification and inference when nonmonotone missing data are NMAR. Throughout, it is illustrated that the methods using both simulations and empirical illustrations in HIV research.
Bio: Eric Tchetgen Tchetgen is a Professor of Biostatistics and Epidemiologic Methods with joint appointment in the departments of Biostatistics and Epidemiology at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. His primary area of interest is in semi-parametric efficiency theory with application to causal inference, missing data problems, statistical genetics and mixed model theory. In general, he works on the development of statistical and epidemiologic methods that make efficient use of the information in data collected by scientific investigators, while avoiding unnecessary assumptions about the underlying data generating mechanism.

Lately it seems like there's a huge difference between TRAINING and RUNNING for me. I mean, sure... they seem like they're the same thing and for my last 3-4 races, I've just been using running as training. But, to PR in Knoxville (nay, not just PR, but break 4 hours) I know I've got to TRAIN and not just run.
And truthfully, I'm excited about it! I'm excited to have specific runs planned with specific paces to hit. But, I guess not excited enough to actually start doing them yet. They look really fun on paper, though!!
Oh well.
I did get in a semi-long run this weekend (if you call 11.7 miles a long run, cough cough). But, I'm not worried. I'll get back on the training track very soon. (Literally, in fact). I'm going to re-adjust my training schedule to start fresh next week and I'm going to attempt to include getting back to some strength training routines (as easy as it was to convince my brain that running and yoga everyday is covering my strength training bases... my body has quickly convinced me that that's not the case. sigh).
If anyone has suggestions on a good calendar either online or a way to set one up in excel or something (My present one looks really kick ass in excel. (Have I mentioned before that excel is my bitch?) but, it's not really easily set up to accomodate cross-training, etc. It's less calendar-like and more agenda-looking). Main requirement is that I can print it out and hang it on my fridge and cross my workouts off

|Song by Bruce Springsteen
from the album Born to Run
|August 25, 1975
|Bruce Springsteen
|Bruce Springsteen and Jon Landau
|Born to Run track listing
"Jungleland" is an almost ten-minute long, epic closing song on Bruce Springsteen's classic 1975 album Born to Run, and tells a tale of love amid a backdrop of gang violence. It contains one of E Street Band saxophonist Clarence Clemons' most recognizable solos.[1] It also features short-time E Streeter Suki Lahav, who performs the delicate 23-note violin introduction to the song, accompanied by Roy Bittan on piano in the foreboding opening.
The song in its lyrics mirrors the pattern of the entire Born to Run album, beginning with a sense of desperate hope that slides slowly into despair and defeat. The song opens with the "Rat" "driving his sleek machine/over the Jersey state line" and meeting up with the "Barefoot Girl," with whom he "takes a stab at romance and disappears down Flamingo Lane." The song then begins to portray some of the scenes of the city and gang life in which the "Rat" is involved, with occasional references to the gang's conflict with the police. The last two stanzas, coming after Clemons' extended solo, describe the final fall of the "Rat" and the death of both his dreams, which "gun him down" in the "tunnels uptown," and the love between him and the "Barefoot Girl." The song ends with a description of the apathy towards the semi-tragic fall of the "Rat" and the lack of impact his death had- "Nobody watches as the ambulance pulls away/Or as the girl shuts out the bedroom light," "Man the poets down here don't write nothin' at all/They just stand back and let it all be."
The two sides of the Born to Run album are meant to mirror one another, and so the song is similar in tone and theme to "Backstreets", the final track on Side 1. "Backstreets", though it does end on a pessimistic note, does not close with as emphatic and final a statement of hopelessness, and leaves open a small possibility for something better. "Jungleland"'s ending, with the "Rat's" own dream killing him, is meant to be the final end of the desperate optimism and dreams articulated from the very beginning of the album.
"Jungleland" is considered one of Springsteen's best all-time songs, and appears accordingly on such lists. In September 2004, Q magazine rated it one of the "1010 songs you must own".[2] In 2005, Bruce Pollock rated "Jungleland" as one of the 7,500 most important songs between 1944 and 2000.[3] The aggregation of critics' lists at acclaimedmusic.net did not place this song in its list of the top 3000 songs of all time, but rated it as one of the 1975 songs "bubbling under" the top 3000.[3]
In concert, "Jungleland" is usually played towards the end of shows. During the E Street Band's reunion tour in 1999 and 2000, it was part of a revolving "epic" slot, alternating with "Backstreets" and "Racing in the Street". When played, it is sometimes preceded by its Born to Run predecessor, "Meeting Across the River". Its appearances were rarer during The Rising Tour. During the 2007-2008 Magic Tour, "Jungleland" was played periodically, often played every third or fourth show in a slot where it alternated with "Backstreets", "Rosalita", "Kitty's Back", or "Detroit Medley" and gaining in frequency as the tour ended. It also appeared intermittently during the 2009 Working on a Dream Tour. Its performances in 2009 became substantially more frequent later in the tour as the band began to play Born To Run in its entirety at most shows.
Jungleland was the only Bruce Springsteen song played in its entirety at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 25th Anniversary Concert solely by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.

I am a natural clairaudient medium: I both hear and feel spirit. I was born this way. Using this gift I am happy to be able to help and guide you for your highest good through your reading.
I come from a long line of psychics. As a child I both heard and saw spirits. I was already giving people information that I was receiving from spirit at 11 years old.
I have had some very strange experiences, so much so that at one point I tried to shut down but I couldn't, the gift wouldn't leave me alone, so I chose to use my gift to help and guide people.
My aim is to empower, not disempower. I'm very down to earth and don't believe in airy fairy readings. I want to keep it real and not feed fantasies. I am here to help, heal and guide you.
I'm very down to earth and don't believe in airy fairy readings. I want to keep it real and not feed fantasies. I am here to help, heal and guide you." Genie Marie
I am a person that doesn't need leading. All I need is a first name which I then tune in to rather than questions or details about a situation or person. I find any extra information can sometimes hinder the flow of guidance I am being given from spirit so it is best to quietly see what they say first.
My guides give me any information which they feel can help you and I pass this onto you. While I am listening to what the spirit are saying, in order to focus more clearly on what they say, I prefer not to be asked questions hence working with just the name that you give and I will provide an email that you may refer to.
I work for people's highest good and would tell someone if something could be done to avoid a crisis. However, I do not do readings about people's health or death, nor criminal or legal cases, so please do not ask me for details about these matters. My guides will only allow me to give you information that will help you, guide you and try to put you on the right path, but ultimately the decision is yours.
I don't believe I have any bounds, but you're only as good as your last reading. I do not believe anyone is more blessed than anyone else.
I have been giving readings and helping to guide people all of my life. Along the way, I have worked with many celebrities and was voted 'Mystic of the Millenium' by Justin Toper in the Daily Mail.
Please kindly note though that all of my readings are confidential whether for celebrities or not, so I cannot name them due to reasons of respect and privacy.
After your reading is complete, if there is anything you don't understand in your reading, don't make it fit. If you are unsure, just ask and I will be more than happy to explain
If you would like any further information or a reading, do get in touch.
I look forward to hearing from you and to guiding you as best I can.
All readings are done through Skype.
I will need your Skype name with preferred times/dates.
Please make payment via to email@example.com
Then email us at the same time to let us know.
From there we will set up a time mutually convenient for us both.
Genie's prices are:
30 minutes £35.00 GBP
45 minutes £50.00 GBP
60 minutes £60.00 GBP

If, as I said, I was approaching the question from the perspective of "what would constitute a valid reason to some random single person".
If we assume that this random person truly believes that their religious reason for opposing gay marriage is a valid one, and we further assume that they might also believe that their reason meets all of your criteria, said reason could, from their perspective, be seen as a valid one.
Granted, it would seem unlikely to be a logical argument in that case, but it is also possible – after all, not all people come at things from the same angle…
Further, such an argument would be highly unlikely to stand up to any kind of examination by one's peers, or for that matter, anyone who does not hold the belief system that supports it.
However, it does seem possible, while extremely remote.

China Folk Cultural Village
Immediately, we saw this artist, Liuqipei.
His works are famous for the consummate skill and smooth lines which has gained highly appraise by the friends all over the world.
In recent years, Liu took part in the Folk Art Festival held in Chengdu city and won the first prize in the silhouette contest. In 1991, he was invited to 100 Wonders In China Expo.
What's more, he has done the show in CCTV, HuBei Satellite TV, Hunan Satellite TV, Guangdong-zhujiang TV, Guangdong Satellite TV, Asia TV, Panama TV, Korea TV, and the Spring Festival Entertainment Show of Sichuan TV, which were well received by the masses.
And also Liu has performed his skill in front of distinguished guests and leaders of various countries.
They brought back this typical chinese folk handicrafts along with satisfaction, commendation and friendship.
Without hesitation, a guy went forward to the artist and he was given free cut-out silhouette of his face. After I had seen three wonderful cut-outs, I volunteered to have mine done. But I had to pay 40 yuan for that!

There would be no rape accusations against Assange if certain countries (e.g. America) did not regard his Wikileaks project as highly politically subversive.
One indicator of the veracity of that hypothesis is the fact that, originally, Assange approached the Swedish authorities himself (when he was in Sweden - a couple of years ago, I think) with regard to these accusations because he wanted to clear his name before leaving (for England, I think).
At that time, Sweden showed no interest in inviting him to stay (or detaining him) for that purpose (i.e. to examine the 'case'); indeed, the relevant Swedish judge at the time dismissed the accusations as being too flimsy to stand up in court.
Only later did Sweden feel sufficient pressure from America to decide suddenly that, actually, Assange did have a case to answer after all.
Sweden has exposed its new political colours, i.e. subservience to the US, very recently. In all previous years, Sweden has always voted in favour of pro-Palestinian UN resolutions, along with the vast majority of nations, and against the tiny minority of anti-Palestinian voters (primarily America and Israel). But this year, for the first time, it decided to vote *with* the US.

text: It has been argued that organic farming sustains a higher biodiversity than conventional farming. This might promote the ecosystem services that exist in agricultural landscapes such as pollination and pest control. Here, I examined the effect of farming system (organic vs. conventional) with respect to the time since farming system transition, landscape heterogeneity and plant richness on pollinating and predatory insects. In total, data from 30 farms were used, of which 20 were organic and 10 were conventional. The data were analyzed using general linear models and model averaging. The results show that insect groups responded differently to various factors. Pollinators were more sensitive to landscape complexity, showing an increase of abundance and species richness with an increased heterogeneity. Predators on the other hand reacted to farming system, where there was an increase in abundance and species richness on organic farms.

The monsoon clouds are charging in from the southwest. The patches of sky between them are deep blue. As the clouds move on, the sun peeps through the spaces occasionally flooding the land with a pure white light and then hides again! The air is crystal clear and you can see very far. The trees are fresh green... A cool breeze keeps you company.
But you know you are missing someone...

Well family!!!!!!! Is your friendly Neighborhood Elder Hironaka. I'm excited to have the chance to write my wonderful family. I would like to say I'm very very sorry for not being able to write this last week. I have been very busy as of lately and the load isn't getting any smaller, which means really I'm just much happier and grateful for the opportunity to be here in the mission.
This last week was a great week because we were able to have a baptism. It was with an old time boxer named José, or whom the neighbors call Gato. Yes, he goes by "Cat" in Spanish. He is a cool guy and at the age of 87 I still think he could beat me up.
Last week was mainly filled with multi-zone meetings. I rather enjoyed watching the missionaries practice and better their teaching. I was also pleased to see that the the way we teach has gotten so much better since I first entered the mission. In the multi-zone the APs don't really have a practice or a training we need to give, that part is done by the ZLs. We however have the fun part of the day by leading the zones in a game. This time I made a cool family feud game that was based around the church! It was pretty fun and I think the Elders and Sisters really enjoyed it.
This week was pretty cool as well as last week. It was the ZL council. I have been to many ZL councils as a ZL but as an AP only 4 times. In this meeting we talk how we can help the mission more. I like the meeting because the spirit works through us in a different way. The ideas that come to us in that council are, as I believe directly from God so that we can better our selves and the mission.
This week as well me and my other companion who I work with had a good spiritual moment. We were contacting in a little more dangerous part of our area when we passed by a house. Elder Penalba looked at me and said can we please go back and talk to her. I thought it was a little strange at first because usually older women don't seem to like to listen to us and usually tell us that they are Catholic or that they are too sick to listen. As we first introduced our selves as missionaries we found out that her name was Katherine. Inspired I told Katherine we were there because we felt to come and knock on her door and that, "we know Our Father In Heaven loves you and that many special blessings are prepared for you. Katherine if you were able to receive any special blessing from him, what would you desire to receive?" As I asked the question she replied, "I want my two little children." We later found out that her two little children are not with her and that she has been living with the empty felling for a long time. We taught that Our Father In Heaven has given his Son and that through that sacrifice we can be together forever as a family. We promised her if she followed the path of our loving brother Jesus Christ she would be reunited with her children. Today she was able to come to church with us and is progressing to be baptized.
I know and bear testimony that the plan of our loving Father In Heaven and Jesus Christ is that we can be together forever. We will be given obstacles, challenges, and at times hardships. We need to remember that like the scriptures teach us any obstacle that is given to us is for us to show our faith, and that in the last day we will be honored for our faith. (1 Peter 1:5-7) As I have been given the great opportunity to represent the Son of our loving Father In Heaven and my family here in Nicaragua, I have come to learn that the scripture in 1 Corinthians 10:13 is true. Every problem or every hard thing we pass in this life can be overcome. Our Father In Heaven loves us and doesn't give us challenges that we can't over come. He'll help us and will provide the way for us to be on His path. In this life we at times forget the importance of struggling. When our loving brother Jesus Christ was sent here He was an example in everything. He was perfect and He himself had obstacles, challenges, and had to feel the worst any of us could ever feel. I know if it was hard for Jesus Christ and I believe that life will be hard for us too. I testify that what President Uchtdorf said today is true. Like a beautiful building was constructed over the span of 20 years that has fallen in the matters of hours and then later was put back together we too can rise again and that we can and will conquer obstacles. I know these things are true in the name of Jesus Christ.
I love you all please. I pray for you each day.

Perfect stitches evade me. I unraveled the ripple stitch scarf a dozen times then finally gave up entirely and went back to the hat knitter, disgusted beyond belief by the uneven edge and fuck-up-ability of the straight needle nightmare. I may try to put some decorative yo's in the hat, but I'm not promising myself anything. The last time I regarded the 5 or 6 inches of ripple stitch, I thought, that's kind of cool. I just need to keep my stitches loose....then, oh, look at that mess. FUCK IT! I wound it back into a ball and got out the size 6 hat knitter and started 1x1 rib stitch. Something I can at least do competently.
I've been off the Chantix over a week and I feel...different, anyhow. I am sort of afraid of that shit. I plan on not smoking two packs a day. I wish I didn't plan on smoking at all.
I need to get a small errand to the CU done today, since it's Monday and all. And then...I need to call my mother. But that's angst for another blog. Haven't talked to her in a couple weeks. If anyone had predicted this a year ago I wouldn't have believed it.

Recharging the Light Brigade
Aside from the laptop, we often have an iPod, a cellphone, a Blackberry, and a PDA loaded with eBooks (yes, I plan to ditch all but the crackberry in favor of an iPhone…and that may obviate the need for a laptop. But we'll need to charge that too).
Despite all this interconnectivity and globalization, there is not yet a worldwide power standard, and there certainly is not a worldwide standard electrical outlet. And even when there is, thirty years from now, the French will refuse to participate.
Thus, I found this Wired wiki article very helpful: S [...]More

Potty Training at 30,000 Feet
My daughter actually likes the airplane potty. It's a chance to get out of her seat, walk down the aisle, smile at the flight attendants and hear how cute she is, maybe snag a snack, AND use the potty with the loud flushing noise.
Despite the inherent fun in using an airplane bathroom,
taking a child in the process of potty training on the plane can be
nerve-wracking. I always just got out the pull-ups to reduce overall
When she was only mostly trained, she kept telling me she had to go. Every 20 minutes. I'm not exaggerating there. I put her in pull-ups while flying even when she was essentially trained, to reduce overall stress, but I had just spent months teaching her to tell me when she had to go — I couldn't ignore her. I was so thankful that the man sitting in the aisle seat was a very understanding grandfather who had no problem getting up every 20 minutes.
In fact, she likes the airplane potty so much that on our last flight, the worst happened.

Traveling With Two
My son, F, will be three months old later this week. Since he was born, he has flown three separate times. He was born in New Mexico, so his first flight was on the way home, when he was three weeks old. When he was seven weeks, we took a trip to visit family in Minnesota for a few weeks. The first two days F flew, he went with me, my husband, and our almost three year old daughter, E. As semi-experienced parents when it comes to traveling, neither of the two trips with my husband worried me that much – after all, there was one of us for each of them. Still, the trip home from Minnesota was going to be just me, E, and F, and for that one, I was nervous about how the whole thing would go. Here is what I learned:

Variable Star started out as a n outline written by Robert A. Heinlein during his early "juvenile" period. Long after Heinlein's death, it was adopted by Spider Robinson and finally given the novel treatment. The main character is a poor college student, studying in Vancouver. His girlfriend would like to get married. However, he would like to wait until they have the means. She then reveals that she is actually heiress to the richest man in the solar system. He is invited to join the family. However, he doesn't like the idea of having his life controlled so deeply. With the help of his girlfriend's younger sister, he escapes the compound, and eventually boards a colony ship that is set out to the far reaches of the galaxy. With the aid of some people with special abilities, they travel at nearly the speed of light. Much of the novel deals with the adventures aboard the ship. Eventually, a few of the speacial ship controllers die, leaving the ship flying endlessly in orbit. And, to make things really interesting, the sun goes Nova and the entire earth is destroyed, leaving the colonists the only hope for humanity. However, the ship they are on is likely the only one that knows that the deadly radiation blast is coming, leaving humanity in dire straits. Luckily, our narrator's former girlfriend has married a genius physicists who has developed faster than light speed travel. They come to the ship to get provisions, unearth some not so-nice plans, and eventually he hooks up with his true love.
The novel has its ups and downs. At times it feels like a Heinlein novel. At other times he get Simpson's and "War on Terror" refs. The combination can at times be annoying. The middle of the novel also seems to go on for a little bit too long. There is a decent story in there with plenty of fodder for a sequel, but it could use some more work.

It's here, It's here!
Yes I am talking about spring and yes this country changed me in a weather freak! The last snow happened in April. And 3 weeks later, I was dreaming of my swimsuit when walking around the city: 30 degrees. Canada is like that: you never know how it's gonna be in the next few days, and everyone here will tell you "no, April, it's too early to store you winter bouts yet... ya never know hey!" (If I come back saying "hey" at the end of all my sentences, it's because I'm becoming... Canadian hey!).
But now it's May, and I believe we won't see much of the below-10-degrees anymore (I know, I'm a dreamer!). And with Spring, I decided to venture a bit further in the city, discover more unknown territory and go all the way to... THE LAKE!
Because if Toronto is built right next to a big-ass lake, doesn't mean it's a given. You have to look for it. First you have to go all the way through the business district, which is pretty boring on a Sunday afternoon as you can imagine. Then find your way below the big Gardiner Hway, and then you're there: water... I wouldn't swim in there, even if apparently you can, since it's a port, and there's an airport on a small Island right in front of the city. But there's some pretty good walk and parks around that make it like a "window for fresh air" (not that the air is bad in Toronto, it certainly doesn't feel like it). "Fresh" is the word anyway, and this bloody wind that froze me all winter is still here!
Anyway, this long walk to the lake gave me the opportunity to catch my first sunburn. And believe it or not, a sunburn in less that 4 hours walking below a sunny-yet-cloudy-weather is not usual for me, and only means how much I am white and need sunshine (with caution, yes I know...).
Besides this quite extraordinary adventure, my walks around the city give me lots of shopping opportunity. I am actually running out of storage option and starting to wonder how I am ever going to bring everything back.
Does that mean I am thinking of coming back? Well I am certainly thinking that Canada may not be the place for me (but let's see what summer has to bring before jumping to conclusion).
Work-wise (is that "English"?), things are going... slowly. I am definitely learning quite a lot in terms of Canadian and US data or advertising. The experience is great and my English improving. No doubt about that. The north-American working system is... well, quite different than the French one (well I know this is obvious but still worth mentioning). And my company especially can be quite frustrating from time to time. Things may be moving in a rear future (new colleague, new project, ... ) so let's see how it goes!
My dear sister is arriving on Friday with Jerome, Jean Marc and Sandrine. My parents are heading over here in September/October. Fleur in August. I'll be in France in June. And I'd love to plan a trip to New York some time in July. There's still plenty of time for you to drop by and give me a proper kiss! In the meantime I'll keep you posted, and I promise I'll take advantage of my visitors to post some new photos real soon.
Take Care!


text: I forgot to take a picture today! But, as I am sorting and purging years of old photos for my LOM class, I thought I would show one from way back. This was taken at an open air concert at Polesden Lacey back in June 1997! It shows me with Nicholas (10) and Lucy (6). I love their faces! If I remember correctly it was a great concert, Peter and the Wolf, with Johnny Morris himself doing the voices!


text: Has this ever happened to you? I thought it was actually pretty cool, though unexpected. I was at a social function, and toward the end of the night I was rather wet and decided it was time for a change. When I went to the bathroom to do so, there was another guy at the sink tucking his shirt in, and his diaper was showing! I did not say anything, nor did he, but I just thought it was a nice moment of reality. That is... wearing a diaper, for whatever reason, is pretty common. it makes me all the more unashamed of my need.

Certainly collectable. No real idea on current values though, sorry.

I believe they were originally intended to be gas markers, rather than mine. But as it turned out, the use changed ....... went on a red metal pole & there were 12 to a set in a leather pack.
Hi, I saw one recently and I think c10-20euros is about the money, good item, but very common and not very valuable. I saw a cased set a few years back and I think that was about £80UKP, though that was probably a good price.
thanks guys, i only have $15 in it..and it looks ss with skull posion!! what do i know it just looked different..
I always wondered why they made the skull so happy-looking on these flags!
These are indeed gas related items, meant to create safe corridors for attacking troops in areas where gas had potentially been spread. Prior to place them in the ground in order to create corridors, "Z teams" were supposed to test the air in the area with a special equipment.
