This is something that have always intrigued me. Everyone that knows would agree that none of the countries that constitute the Eurozone is the same. Especially if one were to consider the different payment solutions and customer orientation towards these, one observe massive differences. Some countries are still heavily dependent on cash payments, while others have installed sophisticated PIN-based payment systems. In some it is acceptable to do Internet payments and in others cheques are still in circulation.
Especially, if one were to consider mobile payments, differences are even more distinct. Initiatives in Nordic areas are not at all comparable to what is happening in Austria nor some of the great work happening in the Iberia peninsula. The challenges regarding money supply and cost of doing business are all different from one country to another.
So here is my question: "How can you regulate all these different countries with the same banking regulation?"

Hi all,
I'm going to try to make this quick as I am wrapping up my lunch time with a blog break. It's been a busy day already. I splurged on some sushi today from Publix and am enjoying it at my desk so I could catch up on some websurfing-mostly blog reading! Warning, this is going to be a bit of a mega post though, since I have back logged a few days worth of food photos and thoughts. Also, still working on the review of HollyWood Car Wash if I have mentioned it to anyone. Stay tuned for that.
Out the gate first, Monday! I had a mega workout on Monday. Yoga with Denise (of course) followed by some real running time at the park afterwards with YogaGF-who if you haven't realized yet is also my training buddy for the 5k we are running this summer. August 12th, baby! Yoga really kicked by bum, but I'm not quite sure why, since we didn't add any real new challenges. Maybe it was all the beer and laziness from the weekend still having an effect. Did some great, deeper warrior 1 and 3 though, so that was a good accomplishment, even if I was a bit distracted by my rumbling tummy though out class.
So, yeah, about that running at the park. We have been training separately and up til Monday YogaGF and I hadn't run together; we have just been walking at the park since I've has this blasted respiratory crap for over a month now. But I've decided that since it doesn't want to seem to go away, I'll just work through it. Well, let me tell you how this silly little beginning runner made an ass out of herself. We start running and I'm trying my damnedest to stay at the same pace as her, but I keep pulling ahead, so I figure what the hell, she can catch up, right? Oh she caught up alright, about 1/3 of a mile in I'm dying and she just trots right by me and then has to keep calling back, for me to catch up. I did, eventually....after I'd stopped wheezing for a few minutes. Moral of the story is I really need to slow it up until my stamina builds. We did a few more laps running slowly and/walking. Probably got in 1 mile of running total. A three.three mile circuit all together. I wish I could just have some stamina NOW. Cause let me tell you I do NOT like running slowly. Hell, it's hardly even running, I can powerwalk faster than we were going-but I will admit the muscle set is different. I'm a fast and furious kinda gal; I drive fast, walk fast, talk fast, think fast, read fast, type fast...I think you get the point. Probably the only thing I don't do fast is eat. Because I want to take that all in. So for now I'll run slow, but trust me I can't wait to run fast!
Yesterday my legs were telling me about the running we did the night before (but not my knee, yay!) so I transferred my morning session to a late after work on (plus I didn't get to go to Bikram, sniff, because I didn't get out of work til late. say le vie?) so the pupster and I took our usual 2 mile track around the block but at a more leisurely pace. Or as leisurely as these little legs would allow...he was still puffing by the time we finished!
Which leads me to a bit of a rant. I'm sooooo tired of people being afraid of my dog. Yes, he is my security which always me to live alone and to train in the mornings before the sun comes up, but come on, he isn't scary! On more than one occasion I've had people back away from him, etc and he doesn't get it because he is a huge people-person, or people-dog? Whatever. So, yesterday we are strolling around the block and this older lady is coming the opposite direction with a baby carriage. I smile and nod and keep going about my walk. She stops. Chub is busy sniffing a tree so I say something to the effect that "It's ok, you can go past." She doesn't respond and continues to look past me, to the dog I guess, in quiet horror. At this moment Chubby decides that the tree isn't worth is time and come running up to me in his usual spazy way, tongue lolling out the side of his mouth, classic silly, happy dog. The lady with the stroller actually gasped and started going in reverse. Seriously? I'm annoyed now, because this isn't the first time this has happened and now I still have to past her, because she wouldn't walk by and is now taking up the whole sidewalk, which is fairly narrow to being with. I bring Chub onto the grass and as we pass I snipped, "He's not going to hurt you." Turns out she doesn't even speak English. Sigh. What could possibly be scary about this face?Minus the Twin's cap of course....this was from over the weekend. Minnesota Hubby was trying to sway my doggie...but he's a Ray's fan, just like his Momma-roomie!
On to the eats quickly, before I have to go do the B-Cell Panel that is so sweetly calling my name.
Last night was a quick clean out of veggies about to go past their prime/pickled food fest:
A "garage salad" which consisted of mixed spring greens, huge green olives, the end of the black bean corn salad (which lasted through three huge meals!) about 1/2 cup of sprouts that were on their last leg and a dollop of Dukes. Yum. (I LOVE Dukes and don't care about the calorie content-sorry kids, not going to talk me out of this one.) Plus 1/2 a "baked" sweet potato (it was microwaved) topped with Japs and some shredded pepperjack and 2 pickled orka. Yum. Guess my body was craving salt or something? Why else would I have randomly ended up with so many pickled items in one sitting? Oh and I had 2 mini dill pickles at lunch that day too. Go figure! I got the jalapenos and sweet potato idea from Meghann but this batch of pickled japs is sooo spicy it kind of ruined the mildness of the potato. I really prefer fresh jalapenos. I'll stick to just salt and pepper on this one for now on.
I mentioned how long the black bean corn salad lasted and here is another meal I made with it on Friday. These pictures got missed over my weekend post, but better late than never right? I was craving a quesadilla, but all I had was Flatout Wraps and while I've used those in lieu of tortilla before, it wasn't my favorite substitution. So I got a little creative.
It started out as a Mexican pizza. Flat out topped with the salad and some shredded cheese all under the broiler:
I topped it with some 0% Fage, some homemade gauc and more of the spring mix and rolled it up to create: Super Huge Mexican Wrap!
This thing was seriously a beast! I even though I was starving when I made it I only finished about 2/3 of it. Luckily DogFace, aka the FourLeggedFurry Garbage Disposal was there to help me out when I hit the wall! :D
I hope that is enough to keep you lovelies entertained for a bit! Back to work I go. (Actually I've been zooming back and forth between the hood and my computer towards the end there....bet you didn't even notice, huh? haha).
Once I'm free at 5:30 (or at least I hope I am done on time today!) I have a light run, at a slooooow pace, planned then a girls night in with YogaGF! Yay for healthy dinner and movie rentals.
Love to all,
~A multitasking Jess

Tithing -- offering a percentage of income for a cause -- dates back to the Old Testament. And lately its popularity is surging in the business world, though today's offerings aren't fixed at 10 percent, and are far different from the garments, dates, and barley that believers once donated to the church.
When Yvon Chouinard, owner of outdoor-apparel giant Patagonia, and
Craig Mathews, owner of fishing supplier Blue Ribbon Flies, joined
forces in 2002 to give 1 percent of their sales to Earth-oriented nonprofits -- and to recruit other executives to do the same -- the result was itself a nonprofit: 1% for the Planet.
Today, the organization's thousand-plus member businesses, spread
over 37 countries, donate directly to more than 1,900 approved
environmental charities, including the Sierra Club. Many of the
companies that slap the 1% FTP logo on their products -- like Volcom, Sigg, and Clif Bar -- are noticeably hip. But its biggest get might be Jack Johnson's Brushfire Records. The mellow singer-songwriter has sold more than 15 million albums, a mellifluous boon for the natural world.
So far, 1% FTP (tagline: "Keep Earth in business") members have
funneled upward of $40 million toward environmental groups. And they're not just
being selfless: The website's "Why Join?" section stresses that membership brings networking opportunities, forges marketing inlets, and adds positive brand perception.
What entrepreneur worth his or her MBA wouldn't say amen to that?

Today has been a busy one. This morning I spend a few hours with my youngest at his "Fun Day" in school. It's usually done every year. The kids spend the day outside with their parents and teachers painting, playing, dancing, playing games and much more. Here's a couple of pictures I managed to take of him. He doesn't like for me take him any pictures, which for me is a real challenge. As a matter of fact, none of my kids like me to photograph them! Great! As a photographer this is very stressful. I hope they appreciate it later in their adulthood years!
Later, after spending the morning and some of the afternoon outside with my little one, I went to school to enroll him for kindergarten. The first time when I went I realized I had left his birth certificate at home so I had to go back to get it and back to the school to complete the enrollment and fill out the paper work. I can't believe he's already going to "big kid school". I sometimes miss my little baby boy.. 😦 They grow really fast, it seems like he was two the other day…Now he's a "big kid".
When I came back I saw there was a package on my front porch. A box with these goodies. I had placed an order of some art materials I needed for my art journal. After watching Kira's wonderful supply list video I decided I needed few things I still didn't have so I found these at Blick's Art Materials The prices they had weren't bad and they had great deals. Didn't spend much this time. Thanks Kira! I can't wait to start using these.
In a bit I'm off to church so with that said, I'll leave you all. Thanks for peeking!

Do and Don'ts of SEO Outsourcing India, Philippines
Click Play to Listen
Seventh E-Webstyle.com SEO Podcast Feb. 6th 2009. First page of Transcription
Chris: We missed the podcast last week. I was out with the flu. I have finally decided I'm going to start taking the flu shot every year.
Paul: Oh, okay.
Chris: 'Cause that was not fun. Oh, man.
Paul: Welcome back. I'm glad you feel better.
Chris: Thank you, thank you. So let's cover what we did last time. We actually didn't talk about too many subjects but we covered a whole lot of good information. We talked about national, local and regional campaigns and the differences between those. We talked about effectiveness of Search Engine Optimization as compared to, say, Yellow Pages or a newspaper ad or whatever it may be. And that was from the context of one of our clients who does rattan furniture and how they wanted to branch out outside of the city of Houston.
We also covered video submissions and, Paul, you don't know this but I actually got our list of video submission websites on our blog last night.
Paul: Oh, [indiscernible].
Chris: So we promised that we'd have a list there. Our list is out there. You can find it at E hyphen Webstyle dot com (E-Webstyle.com) and then once you get to the website, click our blog link and I'm sure you'll be able to find it once you get over there.
Paul: What's on the menu for today?
Chris: So I think we did a little of bit teaser. We talked about outsourcing briefly and we're going to go into depth on outsourcing this time. And we talked about SEO sabotage.
Paul: That's right. You kind of gave a teaser and talked about that. I want to hear the story about sabotage.
Chris: Believe it or not, you can sabotage SEO. We found it, it changed our company policies and we're going to give you that secret today. So, keep listening in.
So, right now, we want to talk about outsourcing, outsourcing your Search Engine Optimization. There's a lot of things to be concerned about. We're not saying it's a bad thing. We're not saying it's a good thing. We know that people are looking to save money. SEO is more of a time-consuming process than it is – specifically, intellectually challenging. And so, you know, as soon as you start thinking about time-consuming processes and how to take care of those, you start thinking about –
Paul: Outsourcing.
Chris: Outsourcing, exactly.
Paul: I think outsourcing—my personal opinion is outsourcing is a phenomenal idea because that's what keeps us in business.
Chris: [laughs].
Paul: So everyone should outsource their SEO.
Chris: Exactly. So that's exactly right. We take care of the Search Engine Optimization for you guys. We are an outsourcing company for your SEO work. Additionally, people talk about when they're about outsourcing, they're also talking about sending it off to a foreign country where labor is cheaper and again, when it's something that's not actually intellectually challenging, then, you can send it to any country. Now, not [laughs, indiscernible] the other countries.
Paul: [laughs].
Chris: It's just a process that you seem to go through and we've dabbled here at our company with some outsourcing to countries like India, Philippines different parts of our work and we've had good results, we've had bad results, we can talk with a lot of experience with that. So let's dive right in.
Paul: You know, I think I'm glad you brought that up 'cause when I first think of outsourcing anything, my first idea is going overseas with whether it's SEO, IT, anything. That's the first thing I think about. And there's a lot of things you need to watch out for when you're going to outsource, whether it's overseas, whether it's, you know, just down the street. It's a couple of points. We're going to come through a couple of points that you need to, maybe questions you need to ask your company or things you need to research or ideas you need to bring up if you're going to out—you're going to entrust your SEO to another company.
What's a good thing you should look for, you should watch out for?
Chris: So we've talked about this and we often give a compare and contrast of how we view, not just web design, not just Search Engine Optimization, but also web design and development and how our company is geared towards helping your company succeed. And the first thing we talk about is understand the business. What does your business do? So if you're looking for somebody to outsource to, you want to make sure that you're dealing with somebody who's asking those right questions. Are you a B2B model? Are you a B2C model? What is the model that you use? What are the products that bring in the most money? What are the products you sell the most? And you know, we've hammered this in a couple of podcasts, what are the products that you sell the most and what are the products that make you the most money? 'Cause they're probably not the same and you want to have a fine balance whenever you're doing Search Engine Optimization.
So you want to be working with a Search Engine Optimization company that has a true interest in your business and is asking you those questions that make you feel comfortable that they're going to understand what it is you do and they're supposed to be the technology experts. We are the technology experts. When you come to us, you're looking for us to do what we can to understand your business and then apply our technological expertise to your business. And you want to look for that same kind of quality in anybody you're outsourcing to—outsourcing your SEO to.
Paul: You know, and I also think that you're an SEO company they should understand your business, they should also understand your competition. They should know what your competitors are doing, what's working for your competitors, what's not working. That can also help your SEO campaign by understanding what your competition is doing. So they should definitely be asking you, you know, who are your competitors, you know. What markets are they in? What—take a look at their website in addition to asking you about your own company. Tell me about your business model, how does your company work? They should understand all of these things if they're going to be able to help you with SEO.
Chris: That's exactly right. When you're looking for somebody to do SEO, they need to be asking "Who's your competition?" or they need to even come to their first meeting telling you, "Look, here is your competition," alright. Here's the list of the people who are doing better than you on Search Engine Optimization for keywords we think are relevant. We'd like to do that when we go to our first meetings even before we spend that much time understanding what their business does 'cause you know, you can kind of go from the basics. Actually, our first conversations really start asking, "Okay, what do you do? How do you make money?" And then from there, we can usually use our own kind of thought process, our own in-house process to come up with keywords and then look, you know, where are your competitors, who you're going after and what advantages is it going to be easy to help to put you above your competitor and where is it going to be a little more challenging and how do we mitigate both of those.
And that comes from the perspective of "How does your website look?" 'cause, you know, maybe you're kicking their butt on SEO and you're right above them, maybe not kicking their butt but you're right above them, you're in Position I or II and they're in Position III and you click your website and you click their website and you don't look professional and they do, well, you know, they may not be spending as much on SEO, they may just have this position that's behind and if they've got the right look and website, then, you need to start redesigning your website and get it up to snuff.
Paul: And they'll probably convert. If their website looks more professional, they'll probably going to convert more sales—
Chris: Yes.
Paul: Or more leads from just even though you may have a better positioning than them, you know. Someone may look at your website, "Oh, that doesn't look nice. It's unprofessional," and they're going to back, they're going to bounce.
Chris: Yes, absolutely. And that would mean that their ROI is high.
Paul: [laughs]. You're right.
Chris: Their return-on-investment is higher.
Paul: Their return-on-investment is much higher than—
Chris: Is much higher so, you know, even if they're not on the first page for of your key terms, but if they're doing better for some [indiscernible] local terms, then, you know, they're—if they're closing deals and you're not, then their ROI is significantly better.

Weekend In Jhansi, India
This weekend I visited the town of Jhansi in Madya Pradesh, central India. Jhansi was a quiet town - folks were polite and helpful (unlike Delhi). Quite a few tourists backpacking in Jhansi, India who arrived by the Bhopal Shatabdi train. Lots of ladies drove around on scooters and cycles, so I bet it was safe for women too. Auto rickshaws in Jhansi were six-seater and costed less than at Delhi. The food was downright cheap - I bought a plate of mutton biryani for Rs.10 and cutlets for Rs.2. I actually felt like I has gone back in time.
Jhansi is well known for the fire brand Queen of Jhansi - Rani Lakshmibai. Born in 1835 in Varanasi, she was trained by her father in horse riding, sword fighting and shooting a gun. She married Raja Gangadhar Rao of Jhansi at the age of 7 and was widowed when she was 18 years. When the Britishers did not accept her adopted son as the heir of Jhansi and ordered her to leave the fort, she assembled an army of warriors that included women. As the British army entered Jhansi in 1858, Rani of Jhansi rode on to the battlefeild dressed like a man and fought till she died in Gwalior. She was only 22. Today, Rani of Jhansi is recognized as a freedom figher and martyr who fought in the First War of Indian Independence of 1857.
I visited the Jhansi Fort from where many battles were fought. Here is a pic from my sister's Sony Ericcson mobile phone.
We picnicked on the lawns of the Jhansi Fort and were joined my a group of monkeys. That's when the French perfume my uncle had gifted me came handy. One spray and the monkeys took off at top speed. Lying on the grass with the blue sky overhead, listening to the birds singing from the wide branches of the tamarind trees, it seemed as it time had stopped. I fell asleep and woke up an hour later when my friend dragged the mat from under me and started packing up.
I also visited the Saint Jude Shrine Church in Jhansi which was crowded with many people on a pilgrimage and backpackers. This shrine is known to be very miraculous, as people can get the 'impossible'. I lit some candles and asked for some mannat's (prayer wishes). The church was very beautiful with arches, pillars and a dome. It was started by Maltese missionaries in Jhansi before Independence.
I had originally planned to visit all the backpacking tourist attractions like the Museum, Rani Mahal and Ganesh Mandir, but there was no time. Here is a pic of a Rani Jhansi statue on one of the roundabouts (gol chakkars) in Jhansi. Other roundabouts had a miniature version of the 'Gyarah Murti' statue located on Sardar Patel Marg in Delhi or Swami Vivekananda.
I travelled by the Bhopal Shatabdi Express which stops at travel destinations like Agra, Gwalior and Jhansi first. Unlike the usual trains it had a toilet where the 'naturals' don't fall onto the track but into a tank. I remember the last time I travelled by train, my watch fell down the toilet and onto the tracks somewhere near Ballarpur. The only thing that upset me on the trip was the behaviour of this guy with a pock marked face who complained that the on-train food was served late and created a huge ruckus shouting at the catering manger for almost an hour.
So, how was your weekend ?

with posts like this, travel desks will close down (why shuld i spend a weekend and loads of money visiting jhansi when i can get 'ankhon dekha haal' on ur blogsite. nice work. must be a pleasnt experience sleeping int he garden like that - many times wanted to that when i visited places but we were so busy visiting places that thre was no way i culd spare an hour to laze around in a garden.ReplyDelete
The French perfume gifted by your uncle sounds like its quite good for self-defence. I suggest you always keep it handy. After all, if that was the kind of effect it had on regular monkeys, there is a good chance that it should prove useful against monkeys without tails as well!ReplyDelete
That was a good insight on Shatabdi toilets too...Keep it up!
Your trip to Jhansi was nice to read. My mouth was watering when I read about the cutlets and briyani. Also, the picture of the fort from where Jhansi Rani fought is looking great. Hope the fort is intact and the time has not shown its impact. I have not travelled much beyond Gujarat in India. Please publish such posts and do more travelling.ReplyDelete

Labor giant AFL-CIO, at 'crossroads,' seeks reinvention
The United Food & Commercial Workers International Union, which represents 1.2 million workers, said in August it was leaving Change to Win to rejoin the AFL-CIO. UNITE HERE and the Laborers' International Union of North America, LIUNA, reaffiliated in 2009 and 2010, respectively.
Trumka praised the UFCW's decision to "unite with the broader labor movement" to challenge the "new normal" facing low-wage workers.

"Kota Kinabalu: Members of the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) who breach rules by developing oil palm in areas of high conservation value will not be issued with the RSPO certification - and this may jeopardise Sabah's position as the No. 1 oil palm State in Malaysia and hugely dependant on the commodity for revenue."
How so? "RSPO Malaysia Secretary-General Darrel Webber... (learned) that the Sabah Forestry Department was having a tough time cracking down on people who keep clearing Class One forest reserves to plant oil palm by claiming native customary rights." read on...
- Sabah is no. 1 (means biggest) palm oil state in Malaysia.
- Palm oil is one of the source of revenue. [Supporting Source: Insight Sabah: Sabah Budget 2011 - Spending Big For Growth (Roll down to paragraph 5)]
- Sabahan palm oil growers (dubbed "faux natives" meaning they claim to have NCR of the land they're clearing) have been allegedly clearing class 1 forest for palm oil planting (which gives hard time for the Sabah Forest Department to crack) so they;
- Breach (one or few of) RSPO rules (on restriction on not to develop palm oil industry in high conservation value areas e.g. Class 1 forest) and thus;
- RSPO would not issue RSPO certification(s) to the alleged parties (in other word they will be "greylisted", not "blacklisted" mind you) and thus;
- No sales/trades of palm oil and its products maybe conducted (between the "whitelisted" members of RSPO) and thus;
- Would generate less revenue and thus:
- Point No. 2 would be jeopardized because of it. Hey, how about point No. 1?
Have I listed all points from the two paragraphs above? I would like to think so. However, few things don't feel right. For example:
- Forest clearing (including clearing Class 1 forest for any purpose, and for palm oil planting/development for any other forest class) has been happening since 'eternally' but no action has been taken, or at least enforcement is inconsistent... [Sorry no source supplied.] Only now RSPO 'learned' or mention about it?
- RSPO certification is almost meaningless. Why? Even "certified" members can still breach (and sell palm oil product). [Source] Even "greylisted breachers" can still sell their products through (not-so-sincere) whitelisted members. [Hearsay, sorry no source]
- RSPO certification is for 'so supply chain can be traced on each level/facility that uses "certified oil"'. No system is foolproof, it can be fooled! [No source supplied]
- Ah, NCR (native customary rights) is a sensitive things to discuss here. But Sabahan knows better that some NCR rightful owners got "owned", some got their rightful NCR after sooooooo long (sorry can't help myself :)), some not-so-right NCR holder got their NCR somehow, some NCR got "cancelled" by government after introductions of some enactments. [Not related but still a Source]
RSPO is a not-for-profit (whatever it means) association that unites stakeholders from seven sectors of the palm oil industry - oil palm producers, palm oil processors or traders, consumer goods manufacturers, retailers, banks and investors, environmental or nature conservation NGOs and social or developmental NGOs - to develop and implement global standards for sustainable palm oil. [Source]
According to RSPO website, Malaysia has the highest number of members by country.
In the end, I ask myself, is Sabah Position As No. 1 Oil Palm State in Malaysia In Jeopardy? Not likely if we consider the "hugeness" of palm oil plantation. We still have big companies here "doing" palm oil as opposed to "NCR" claimers clearing forest for palm oil, but of course I'll defer to Stephanie can show me if the "NCR" claimers' lands are larger than the big boys' lands. Compared to revenue to Sabah from tax of crude palm oil (CPO). A "decertification" might affect revenue but not so much due to "resourceful" (would/might-be) greylisted members of RSPO...

NER enzymes recognise damaged lesions by their abnormal structure; this is followed by excision and replacement (Friedberg et al 2006). There are two sub pathways for NER the global genome repair-NER (GGR) and transcription coupled repair-NER (TCR); both share the same repair mechanisms but with different recognition steps and use different sets of proteins (Bohr et al 1985; Hanawalt 2002). In principle GGR works by eliminating the lesions from the entire genome whereas TCR repairs the damage at DNA strands that actively transcribe the gene (Altieri et al 2008).

Birmingham City were hoping to get their Europa League campaign off to a flying start but instead ended up with a lesson in European football.
Last season's beaten finalists Braga showed early on that they were a class above Blues and by the time the game came to an end, Birmingham face an uphill battle to progress in the competition.
Two goals from Helder Barbosa, early in the game and again late on, made sure that Blues and their much changed side were left with little to show from the game that they carried such high hopes into.
But it was City who had the first chance of the game early on when King set off down the wing and played a sweet pass to Rooney who could only manage to hit the side netting.
Two minutes later and City were a goal down. Helderson sent in a curling cross and Barbosa smashed home a volley from 20 yards that game Myhill no chance.
Viana then had the chance to double the score but Myhill pulled off a brilliant save to stop his free kick from going in.
In the 21st minute Rooney was inches away again, flicking over the crossbar a left-wing free-kick from Wade Elliott, but then the game went into a bit of a scrappy period.
On the hour mark Braga scored a disputed second when Elderson sent in a cross for Gomes, but the ball fell to Lima who was in an offside position just before and he hit a half volley from 10 yards into the roof of the net.
Myhill had made another fantastic save to deny Lima once again and then City pulled a goal back when Burke produced an angled run and low pull back into the six-yard box and King was on hand to tap in to make it 2-1.
Braga hit City in the last three minutes with a counter attack and Silva passed to Barbosa who fired home to make it 3-1.
Bad Start To Europa For Blues

Delegate supports expanded board
On Nov. 2, Carroll countians will vote on whether the county commissioners should be expanded to a five-commissioner board from the current three. It is my fervent hope that the voters will vote "yes" for the expanded board.
During the years I have been your legislator in Annapolis, I think it can be fairly stated that I have been a consistent conservative voice on the Carroll County House delegation. I would not be appealing for your support of the five commissioner board if I did not consider that the change has the benefit of providing more efficient, effective and fair governance for the future of Carroll County.

Another excellent coastal walk and an enjoyable egg and bacon roll times two at a beach side fast food shack. The first half was along the tops of the cliffs with most of the second half at beach level. It must be said however that the pace on the latter three miles of the walk did become ridiculously slow.

Today marks another informative day to the dreaded deployment journey. We keep finding out pieces to this crazy puzzle and I guess one day it will all be put together and we will find out just how tough we really are. As of right now, John's unit is being put on orders August 14th, they will then leave for Ft. Bliss, TX on August 17th. They will train at that base up until October 3rd, when they leave for Kuwait for their 1 year deployment mission......also the day that Deanna will check into the 4th floor of our local hospital (the crazy floor)!! lol jk John hates to come home with the news, but he knows he HAS to tell me....its not like he can keep it a secret anyway lol Yes, its hard to swallow news like that, because that means I am closer to the reality of it all. Like I told John, this is an emotional roller coaster that will not come to an end until he comes home from it all and we will just have to take it a day at a time and hang in there. Its time to put the big girl panties on and deal, right?!? lol Right! (Hmmmm, wonder if I need 3 or 4 pair?? lol)

Oh my goodness! I think I am going to have to cut this off, because I can't stop yawning!!!! I am taking a pill to assist in sleeping and boy is it assisting!!!!! SHEESH!! I believe it has kicked in and almost KICKED MY HIND QUARTERS!!! lol I must go now before I fall asleep at the computer. Hopefully I can break my record of two nights posting and make it #3 tomorrow....whoohooo!!! :)

It won't in my world and I guess that is all that matters, right?

Now for more important matters......PHILLIP IS DEFINITELY GOING TO EUROPE!!!!  WHOOOOHOOOO!!!! In the very beginning of this, we were excited that he was selected to take on this new journey in his life, but held back a bit until we KNEW FOR SURE he would be going (ok, we didn't hold back as much as we should have maybe). After being notified of him being selected for the program, Phillip had to receive three letters of recommendations (two teachers & one outside person) and complete an interview on paper and in person. After doing so, within 24 hours, we got a phone call from People to People saying "He is DEFINITELY going with us".....*HAPPY DANCE* WOOT! WOOT! :)

The outside recommendation was from the director of United Way, who Phillip has worked closely with for the past 2 years. He was invited to be on the allocations committee his freshmen year in high school and served over and beyond his duties. It was to be a learning year, but instead, he took the bull by the horns and on his own time, took off running with things that others were suppose to do. He did so well that they asked him to return to serve again the next year and he jumped at the opportunity, because he has found a passion for helping others in the way that this organization does. This will be his third year working with them when they get things up and running & he is very excited to see that coming ahead. He has now been invited to become a Junior Rotary Club member and looks forward to the opportunities there. I am so glad to see him participate in these organizations & especially PROUD of his passion to do so.

 Now to think of fund-raising ideas for this trip. John's mom is really jumping on board and putting her heart and soul into this chapter of our journey. She is very well known for her baked goodies and is already having requests before she even thinks about getting into the kitchen to turn the oven on! lol THIS IS GOOD! Its going to be a busy few months getting this thing underway, but with God and the determination, its all good!! :) Now I must get off of here and go make a date with my doctor......ugh! Issues arising again, so better nip it before it nips me.....I have some fund-raising to do!!

God Bless! :)

I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me Phil. 4:13Deannahttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7546567559645706852.post-1735808370489595702010-10-19T11:57:00.000-07:002010-10-19T11:57:17.757-07:00Here we go!Well, here we go with the first posting of my new blog. This is going to be a new journey for me and hoping it is a good one....wish me luck!! lol

!!!! HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY TO HUSBAND JOHN !!!!
 John has FINALLY caught up with me!!! He has now joined the fabulous 40 club that he has NEVER let me forget for past 11 mths that have been 40.......UGH! Its payback time today.....tee hee, its been a fun day!! :)

Today we are waiting to here the final word from Phillip's interview. We received a letter from People to People Ambassadors Program, stating that Phillip had been selected to represent the United States as a student ambassador to travel and study on a Celtic Culture tour to Europe. He will be traveling to England, Ireland, Wales & Scotland for 19 days WITHOUT ME!! lol I'm still trying to find a way to go with him, but its not looking very promising. We completed our second meeting last night, which consisted of an interview and turning in our paperwork and letters of recommendations. We are anxiously awaiting the final word on that hopefully today or tomorrow (so they say).

Another journey that is taking place in our family is the dreaded alert order for John's National Guard Unit......yep, its finally here :( Its a fear that all soldiers and their families live with on a daily basis during times of conflict, but its also just part of life that we live. If its time to go, then its just like being called into work and you go. Its times like this that you lay it at God's feet and trust in him and keep moving on. He is in control anyways and there is nothing you can do about it, but suck it up and deal with it. It doesn't mean it will be easy, but it doesn't mean it can't be done either. With God all things are possible!! We are looking at a possible deployment of August 2010, not long after Phillip will return from Europe. Then Phillip will also start his senior year at that time also......sheesh! Did I just say senior year?? Oh boy! I can't believe its here already *sigh* Anyway, I'm sure we will have numerous things to keep us busy during that time that John is gone and Phillip is preparing for college. Alex may be in a new school chasing his love of football and I will just be chasing Blake!! Yep, I'll be plenty busy!! lol

Well, that's it for today and its about time to crank up the ole taxi for my afternoon pickups and runs to practice.Deannahttp://firstname.lastname@example.com

For the actual day of Danya's 6th birthday we took her to Build-a-Bear workshop. She has been asking for this for a looong time! She skipped and ran all the way through the mall to get there.
She picked out a voice box that sings the happy birthday song, gave her bear two hearts, and lovingly brushed it's fur while it had a nice long air bath. Her favorite part was picking out clothing. Her bear got a denim skirt with ruffles, a t-shirt that reads "Beary Best Friends", two ear bows, and a pair of bear sized panties. We all laughed when we saw the hole in the back of the skirt and panties for the tail to poke through.
Danya let her bear, who she named Ally Springs, wear her birthday princess crown around the mall. Gloria is fascinated by Danya's bear. She definitely wants one for her birthday in October.

| A Late Gentleman chapter 1 . 3/22/2016
I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but it was so well written and heartbreaking at the same time. I like the fact that this plot showed that Emma isn't perfect. I can't wait to read more of this fic!
| Maziquin chapter 2 . 3/19/2016
Oh fuck. Please continue? Would it be end game? Ow fuck Emma. Good call on not naming the man she cheated her with. Leave it like that. Don't mention he who must not be named. I looooove this.

I fucking love your writing please please please consider finishing this! ;-;

Nickolas is showing off some new skills.
We've been working on getting Nick to stand with us supporting above his knees (we started in January at his hips).
But now he decided to take it to a whole new level!
Nick started to crawl over to me when I'm sitting on the floor. Then he pulls himself up onto his feet and falls down. Then one day he let go, and just stood there for a couple of seconds!
He did this a couple of times before I realized what he was doing.
So this week I set up a video.
You have to watch the whole thing to get him standing by himself.
I think Nick has also learned the joy of dancing!

I received a heartfelt proposal this morning. It came by email and was a pitch to form a meaningful relationship. I've decided to disregard the fact that it came from a woman in Poland and consider it instead on a human level.
It starts "Hello Mr!" A rather formal beginning for a love letter (especially since I'm a woman) but we don't really know each other yet, so I'm prepared to say "hello" right back.
"I understand that this letter will be a surprise for you." This shows she has empathy.
"I shall explain to you." She's prepared to give me details and take the time to explain. I'm prepared to listen.
"I asked the agency to find a man for a serious relationship." She's being honest about her situation. A good start for any relationship. Wonder how much she's paying this agency?
"They gave me his email address." There's somebody else?
"And so I write." I think this email is the email she's referring to. Not sure where they got the intel that I'm a man...must update my records. In the meantime, I'll keep an open mind.
"My name is Diana." Nice name - means the "huntress".
"I am 27 years old." A younger woman.
"I was born in Poland." We all have to be born somewhere.
"But now I live in London." She give no insight as to whether this is a good thing. The use of the word "but" suggests that she may have fled in unhappy circumstances and misses her homeland. Dreadfully.
"I am a lawyer." Oh well.
"I like my job, it gives me confidence in myself." Good for you Diana. It must be hard to be a lawyer if you're not confident.
"I am very sociable girl." Clearly.
"My friends say about me that sometimes I talk too much." Maybe this is why she left Poland.
"But I love to communicate." She might be a Gemini - with my Gemini ascendant, this could be a good match.
"And do not see anything wrong with that." What is wrong with that?
"I also love to read books I've read all the books of Stephen King." I love to read too, but have not read all the books of Stephen King. I would advise Diana to pay attention to Steve's syntax, it will help with her own written communication.
"Every day I go play tennis and golf." She must be very busy, what with the lawyering and communicating and Stephen King books, now there's tennis and golf? Every day? I'm starting to wonder whether Diana would have time for a relationship with me.
"My height 178cm." I don't think I can be with a woman who is taller than me.
"My weight 54 kg." Too skinny.
"My eye color - brown." Something else we have in common. Mental note - does she only have one eye?
"My hair color- light brown." Yep, just like my hair is red. What woman has their own hair colour anymore?
"I had a long relationship with a man." Me too. Hope it wasn't the same man.
"We have been together for over 4 years." She needs to really look at the syntax - it sounds like they're still together. Yet she's making this proposal to me. What kind of person is Diana, really?
"But he drank a lot and very deceiving me." I'm not sure what this all means, but it sounds bad.
"I did not want such a relationship and we broke up." You go girl.
"I want a man in whose eyes I see the sincerity and honesty." I've got the eyes, but not the bits.
"I need a responsible man." Don't we all? Why are you asking me, I'll take the first one I find. She's not getting him.
"Now you know a little about me." A very little, but more than you might think.
"If you are interested please contact me on my personal e-mail." It's so impersonal.
"Here is my email address ......." Funny how that address is different from the one listed as the address of the sender of this email.
"I'll have a vacation in 3 weeks." Good for her.
"And I plan to visit Australia." This sounds like a threat.
"I never was in this country." Sounds like denial to me. Guilty conscience?
"And it is interesting to me to know all about Australia." The Lonely Planet guides are great.
"I would love to see your letter." I bet you would Diana. I've never heard the word letter used to mean that before. It's a bit soon to be showing you my letter!
"Please tell me about yourself." Well, I'm actually a man who was born in Poland....
"Your work, interests?" It interests very much.
"I'm curious to know all about you." Me too!
"With the best regards." Generous - nothing but the best for me!
"Diana". I think my spam detector was right.
Oh well.

The NS3 (dengue virus non-structural protein 3) serine protease of dengue virus is an essential component for virus maturation, thus representing an attractive target for the development of antiviral drugs directed at the inhibition of polyprotein processing. In the present study, we have investigated determinants of substrate specificity of the dengue virus NS3 protease by using internally quenched fluorogenic peptides containing Abz (o-aminobenzoic acid; synonymous to anthranilic acid) and 3-nitrotyrosine (nY) representing both native and chimaeric polyprotein cleavage site sequences. By using this combinatorial approach, we were able to describe the substrate preferences and determinants of specificity for the dengue virus NS2B(H)–NS3pro protease. Kinetic parameters (kcat/Km) for the hydrolysis of peptide substrates with systematic truncations at the prime and non-prime side revealed a length preference for peptides spanning the P4–P3′ residues, and the peptide Abz-RRRRSAGnY-amide based on the dengue virus capsid protein processing site was discovered as a novel and efficient substrate of the NS3 protease (kcat/Km=11087 M−1·s−1). Thus, while having confirmed the exclusive preference of the NS3 protease for basic residues at the P1 and P2 positions, we have also shown that the presence of basic amino acids at the P3 and P4 positions is a major specificity-determining feature of the dengue virus NS3 protease. Investigation of the substrate peptide Abz-KKQRAGVLnY-amide based on the NS2B/NS3 polyprotein cleavage site demonstrated an unexpected high degree of cleavage efficiency. Chimaeric peptides with combinations of prime and non-prime sequences spanning the P4–P4′ positions of all five native polyprotein cleavage sites revealed a preponderant effect of non-prime side residues on the Km values, whereas variations at the prime side sequences had higher impact on kcat.

Here are a couple links I found while researching the effects of sugar. I specifically wanted to know if sugar can cause depression.
From the above link, here are just a few of the effects of sugar that really stood out to me:
Sugar can cause hyperactivity, anxiety, difficulty concentrating, and crankiness in children.
Sugar can cause arthritis.
Sugar can cause heart disease.
Sugar causes food allergies.
Sugar can cause a permanent altering in the way the proteins act in the body.
Sugar can cause headaches, including migraine.
Sugar can adversely affect school children's grades and cause learning disorders.
Sugar can cause depression.
Sugar can contribute to Alzheimer's disease.
Sugar feeds cancer.
A quote from http://www.holdthetoast.com/httblog/archives/000169.html:
Please, please, stop looking for a way to have lots of sweets without consequences. Stop trying to make your low carb diet look like your old diet. There's nothing "normal" or "natural" about eating a lot of sweet stuff; the typical American intake of sweets, especially sweetened beverages, is nothing short of pathological, and changing sweeteners doesn't make it any more normal, historically speaking.
We need to back to the notion of a "treat" being something that we have on special occasions, not something we have every day.

One of the Marans hatched out a single chick today! But, I feared for it's life so I took it from her. Red can get in the chicken house... or she could! Kris fixed that problem this afternoon.
But the reason I was really worried is that there are two broody hens in two of the upper level nests. There is a little platform outside the nests that the hens can walk on if they want. Both hens jumped out to eat some scraps that Erinn gave them, and that is when she saw that one chick had hatched. Then, hen #2 got back in her nest making a clucking noise.
So the chick decided to travel the dangerous path from it's own nest over to where the other hen was. When it somehow arrived without falling off, the other hen was NOT happy to see it and she started clucking madly and ruffling her feathers up. At which point I snatched it away from the beak of death and brought it in the house. I brought the other eggs in and put them in the incubator. Out of the 10 eggs, only 5 looked like they had something in them. I sure hope we don't end up with a lone chick to raise! I gave the hen the eggs that had been in the incubator since Feb 11, so she can try again. This time I will move her to a safe place BEFORE hatching time!
On 2-12, we had a nice surprise visit from Kris' cousin Jeff and his family. They were on their way home to Chicago, and stopped by briefly. The kids sure enjoyed riding Susie and looking for arrowheads.

I'm sure you've caught on that I haven't been a happy camper this week. I have been throwing a week long pity party. And I'm sorry. I am done with feeling sorry for us. We are blessed beyond belief. There are a thousand situations that could be worse than ours. So I'm going to put my big girl panties on and deal with it - all of it - daycare, sickness, guilt and all! And, as Charlie would say, "Everything always works out." It must be nice to be so simple minded!
We will still have a nice Easter tomorrow. I'm going to attempt to teach Avery how to put her eggs in the basket. And we will open her Easter baskets (I can't fit it all in one!) And we are having a wonderful Easter dinner - Chicken strips and Curly Q's, per my husband's request. I figure, why fight him on it, cooking a ham sounds like a lot more trouble! As always, God has worked it out for us - next week just happens to be the week my grandparents will be in town and my babysitter is on Spring Break. Avery will probably not be in daycare at all next week.
Take time out to enjoy the holiday tomorrow, thank God for Easter and all that it means. Thank you Jesus for the sacrifice you made. Thank you to my faithful blog readers who read through my many griping sessions for the last week and left many sweet and encouraging comments. Shame on me for not posting pictures, today just seems to have slipped away...pics of Easter Basket Opening tomorrow, I promise! I think it's our bedtime now....good night! :)
