The house was modern and well designed with the beach and view in mind, with the living area and kitchen upstairs, and the bathroom and bedroom downstairs. Upstairs could be opened right up to allow a really nice breeze through. The kitchen was well appointed and had everything we needed, including a dishwasher (note, no microwave, but not needed). Really enjoyed watching the beach and surfers while lounging with a book and drink. Fantastic house whether sun or rain!
This bach is awesome and perfect for a summer getaway. It was modern, yet relaxed and was perfect for our group. The location is amazing. Across from the beach, it is a short walk for a swim, or the expansive views from the lounge make it the perfect spot to read a book or have your morning coffee. I also LOVED that the bach came stocked with the essentials (oil, salt&pepper, butter, soap, heaps of plates/glasses etc), it made the stay effortless. We can't wait to come back again!

One Crazy Ride, But We Always Win 3 to 2.
I have been through emotional rides before, like when I lost my mom or on days at work where the shit is proverbially hitting the fan, but Wednesday was such a different experience. I won't ever forget what happened. But before I get to that, let's start at the beginning of the day.
I had asked for the day off from my job to make sure that I could attend the City Council meeting where the council discussed the proposal to bring MLS to Portland, in addition to discussing a new triple AAA ball park for the Portland Beavers. Talks had problems on the preceding Friday, but apparently, a deal had been struck over the weekend between Sam Adams (current mayor of Portland), Randy Leonard (city commissioner), and Merritt Paulson (current owner of the Timbers and Beavers). The deal was announced on Tuesday, and so the council was going to discuss the plan during their regular Wednesday meeting, starting at 9:30 AM. I went to bed that night after scrambling about to get caught up on work stuff, TV stuff, and helping girl so that she could come to the hearing as well. We went to bed rather late, and as usual, I fell asleep almost immediately after my head hit the pillow, but she had some nervous energy, because it was going to be a big day.
I woke up just before 7 AM, as girl had dropped her mom off at work, because her car was in the shop. She had gotten back, and was going to check email before eating and getting ready to head downtown. I logged onto the board (soccercityusa.com), and was checking on the headlines and topics. The board has been crazy, as members of the Timbers Army were preparing for today, posting links to various media outlets, sharing letters that they'd written to various people, and posted comments from people who either supported or hated the idea of MLS. As I sat down, girl had mentioned that they were asking for someone to read a letter from our friend Gary from Seaham. He had written a wonderful story about his first trip to Portland, the hospitality that he was shown, and how much he enjoyed the passion that the Timbers Army showed during matches. I originally wasn't going to testify, but when the opportunity presented itself, I didn't hesitate to say I would read it. Gary is a wonderful friend of mine, and he's done a lot for me personally after two trips across the pond, so I felt honored that it would be me sharing his words. After putting out the trash, showering and eating, we left the house at 8 AM. We wanted to be in the chambers by 8:45 AM so that we could sign me up to talk.
The traffic wasn't terrible for a Wednesday morning, but the drive into downtown didn't make me miss commuting into the core of Portland one bit. I love the people that jump lane to lane, or are doing other things while driving, but it's what you see in the morning, so it is what it is. We pulled into 4th street about 8:40 AM, and found a parking garage near City Hall, the site of the hearing. I figured we would be in and out within a few hours, as the council meeting was supposed to start at 9:30 AM with the vote happening around 11 AM. But I also remember my days of being in student senate at Gonzaga, and meetings almost invariably never followed the right schedule, as they often went long or ended way early. While I hoped that it would end early, I wasn't that optimistic about that happening. As we pulled into the garage, I took the ticket and pulled into the first floor and got ready to park, when girl said, "No, wrong spot, it's 106. Go one more over!", and sure enough spot 107 was open, so we parked there. I firmly believe in karma, so hey, anything I could do to help the cause, let's do it. I even pulled out my match day scarf to wear with my green shirt, so that I followed the color scheme of the TA. As we walked down to City Hall, we saw the Tri-Met number 10 to Sunderland, letting people off. Again, perhaps another sign, as I was ready to read a letter from a Sunderland AFC supporter to our city council in support of MLS.
We passed through security at 8:50 AM, and walked upstairs to see the semi-large group of Timbers Army already waiting to get into the council chambers. There was at least 50 people gathered outside, waiting for the 9 AM time to sign up and I ran into many of my friends, and a few Army members that I hadn't met yet but knew me and girl by face. Finn, our main TA organizer for MLS to PDX, made sure I was Ok to read the speech, and Obi even offered me a SAFC scarf to wear while reading Gary's letter, but I decided to stick with my match day TA scarf. It made me feel comfortable, and so as I wandered up to sign up, I felt ready and calm to go. I'd already been talking with various city council members by email to provide input about the decision, answer any questions they might have about MLS, and do what I could to provide information about Paulson's idea. The chambers opened up soon after 9 AM, and we saw Merritt walking in, and he stood outside, shook a few hands and thanked us for being there. After the bonding moment, many of us started to head in. There was already a half dozen news cameras there, following us in and taking pictures before things got rolling. The lower floor of the chambers was filled with TA, so many that they had to open the balcony for more seating. I don't think anyone expected this many people, as evident by many of the council meeting regulars who were used to getting close up seating. Today would be a little different.
At 9:35ish the Councilors and Mayor Adams wandered in, and things officially got going. The first hour was going through the agenda items before soccer, including two calls for Adams to resign, a prayer from a pastor, and the Palau foundation giving the city money. It was rather interesting to hear the discussion about various things, and the business was handled rather respectfully. I did find it funny that most of the people asking for Adams to resign didn't appear to be Portland residents, but at any event, around 10:30, the topic of MLS started up. Being a former college senator, I was used to the parlimentary rules of procedure, so following along was pretty easy. First, the task force chairman talked....and talked...and talked...and got grilled with some questions. I noticed a few people typing into their computers, and apparently, Oregon Live sent one of their columnists to follow along. Ryan White did a great job of following along, and honestly, I'm not sure I could have done such a good job keeping up and making it sound interesting.
The city attorneys came up, and talked more about the nuts and bolts, and got questioned more, as Commissioners Fish and Fritz were asking most of the questions. The deal had been brokered by Commissioner Leonard and Mayor Adams, who fielded and clarified things, but the attorneys and PDC guys talked for nearly another hour, until Merritt took the stand around noon time. By now, my stomach was still in knots as I'd expected to have been gone by now, but at the rate we were going, it looked to be a very long day. I even got my picture taken by the Oregonian with girl sitting next to me, I believe it was taken about 11 AM or so, about the point that I had wished I had eaten more than a bowl of cereal. The discussion continued, and there were many questions thrown out, some good and some not so good. Fritz indicated she hadn't seen the documentation until today, although if that was truly the case, she grasped some of the text pretty well. There was plenty of talk about seating, the ballpark, transportation credits, urban renewal districts, zero coupon bonds, and more finance talk than I'd heard since my college days. Needless to say, lots of details were discussed at great length.
Around 11:55 AM after Merritt left the microphone, Multnomah County Commissioner Ted Wheeler took the stand, and the next 45 minutes or so was punctuated as "the Leonard - Wheeler" bitch fest. I'd never seen anything like it, as Wheeler and Leonard took shots at each other verbally about urban renewal districts. Wheeler didn't want one formed because it would affect the county budget adversely, although Leonard pointed out that not only does the county have many now that they earn from, but that he'd mentioned to Wheeler 3 months ago this was part of the plan. Apparently, that fact didn't register until the thing became a back and forth trading of barbs, with a final "oh, snap" moment where Leonard basically said Wheeler didn't know what he was talking about, followed by Wheeler's "uh, your mom" retort. It was truly a spectacle to follow, but the events here did have an affect on things later. Wheeler was joined by someone from the Portland Public Schools, who said this proposal would hurt their budget, too, so please don't do it.
It's not that I have anything against schools mind you, but it seems like the PPS always has their hand out if they can get more money, and sure enough, it appeared they were upset that an urban renewal district would be put in around PGE Park that could adversely affect them. URDs allow an area to set up a taxable district, in which bonds can be issued. However, these bonds can affect the amount available for other public entities, such as schools, if they wish to either set up bonds, and they can impact the taxable values of properties in the area, which affects the amount they collect from the states and counties. In most cases, the bonds and other public financing work in conjunction with each other, but apparently, the county and PPS felt otherwise, and so it was their time to say their peace. Once this was done, more task force dudes came up and said their peace. It was interesting that the task force had unanimously agreed on the recommendation, and one of the guys admitted he was a no until that final meeting.
The public testimony finally got rolling just before 1 PM. Short statements good, but you have 3 minutes to talk and then you get cut off anyway. Most of the other council business has been pushed to other days and meetings, so at this point, we're in for the long haul. Most of the speakers have good things to say about MLS, including the president of the Oregon Sports Authority, some veterans who were happy at the prospect of getting a new memorial, and lots of Timbers Army, while many spoke against it, including a guy that felt the Coliseum made more money with cat shows than baseball, and a city employee that thought it was a waste of time. There was another veteran who said they were supposed to get use of the Memorial Coliseum, but apparently no one remembered this fact. He didn't seem to mind it possibly being torn down, especially at getting a new memorial.
At 1:25 pm, my name gets called, and I'm up there with two other TA, Kari Sue and Obi. It's Obi's fault that I joined the TA, so it was fitting that we were up there to testify at the same time. My part went rather well, I didn't butcher the letter too bad, and by 1:33 PM, I was done. The letter was from the heart, and while I missed some of the words, it was an honor to read it. Even the mayor liked the story, and within a few more minutes, I was back at my seat. I never felt such a thrill as actually standing up for something I believed in.
But my optimism was short lived as at 2:13 pm, the Portland Trail Blazers testified, and said the MLS deal, specifically the baseball part, harms them. Up until now, they'd been a willing participant, realizing that another tenant might bring more folks to the Rose Garden, an area that has really struggled to pull people there on non-game nights. While the Blazers had been supportive, they suddenly said that their idea for an entertainment district near there would be harmed by the baseball park, and it would cause them economic harm. I'm not sure what loud sound I heard first, Merritt's jaw dropping at the change of heart, or Adams and Leonard sitting dumbfounded at the situation. Even the local sports columnist, John Canzano, was disheartened at the conduct, and wrote about it at great length today. It's one thing if you were disrupting an already established area, but in the 15 years since the RG was built, it's still what it is, two arenas, some random office buildings and a restaurant. While baseball would fill in crowds on non-basketball nights, I think the problem here is as simple as asking this - Do the Blazers want competition in their market? Or Do the Blazers want competition in their market for revenue streams that they currently have a monopoly on? The Trail Blazers guy leaves hurriedly, and the room is still stunned at what just happened.
The testimony continues, Merritt goes back up to talk more, more legal stuff gets talked about, and around 3 Pm, they decide to see if they even want to vote today. When suddenly, Commissioner Saltzman proposes an amendment to remove the URD part of the financing, and the piece that the county was complaining about is discussed and gone. The amount of the financing is $15 million and so it will need to come from somewhere, either another source or a URD that the county and schools can agree upon, but either way, it needs to be in place by September 1st, when this agreement officially becomes binding after a vote. It appears that with this one change, perhaps we might get a vote and it will finally pass. It appears that Fish is leaning towards a yes, Saltzman and Fritz are no's, while Leonard and Adams are already committed yes votes. We hit 3:20 and then it's time for final remarks.
Fritz pulls out some soccer scarves, talking about being a huge soccer fan, and loving the game. She continues on about soccer, when her tone changes about not wanting to hurt the city or the Trail Blazers, and after a rambling roundabout speech, she said she can't support it, and so the first no vote is on the book. Fish steps up, saying he'd be the first in line to buy MLS season tickets, but he can't support the idea of harming county services, and so he's a no. I'm shocked by this one, because I thought he was a yes. The Army sits huddled in their chairs, realizing that our fate hangs by one final vote. If it's a yes, we are in, if not, the MLS dream is done. Saltzman starts to talk about financial terms, and not harming the city, but soon says "This seems like a good stadium deal for us and I look forward to discussing it more, so I'll vote yes"
The room explodes into a crazed celebration of cheers and tears. Girl cried in her seat, I sat there stunned and humbled while tearing up, and there was plenty of noise. Leonard and Adams soon cast their yes votes with short discussion, and soon enough, the deal is passed 3 to 2. There's still the 15 million dollar question, but we can go to MLS with the deal and go from there. It's now a matter of MLS saying yes to Portland. I shook Merritt's hand later, got to speak with Sam Adams a bit, and generally hugged and celebrated with the TA around there. It was a truly great moment, and one of historic proportions. I had truly seen the city at work, and while we got what we wanted, it wasn't without challenges.
We live in a society that doesn't believe in sharing truth anymore, but rather placing doubt on ideas as much as possible because information can be skewed in many different ways. I don't want schools to be harmed, or the Trail Blazers to suffer monetarily, but at the same point, if schools can't find ways to more efficiently use their funds, why should they get more. And seriously, as much as I love the Trail Blazers, they seriously upset a lot of fans with their antics on Wednesday, and while I'll support the team, I have issues with the business end. But as we ended up at the Bitter End celebrating, none of that mattered. We all celebrated because for one night, we convinced a city that soccer was a good thing, and we got three powerful people to believe in it's future in Portland. And when Merritt came into the pub later to celebrate and buy drinks for everyone, it showed exactly what kind of a guy he is - one that loves Portland and wants to see this happen.
I did send thank you notes to the council, to Ryan for his humour, and to the Trail Blazers, and while I was cordial in every one of them, I won't forget the lessons learned on this journey. There's a lot more work to be done, but at least for now, we have achieved something that just a few months ago seemed like a pipe dream. And I will remember this day when I'm sitting in PGE Park in 2011 as the Timbers open up their MLS campaign, and realize just how far this city has come in such a short time.

Thank you for this excellent personal account of the MLS vote. It is good to get another perspective from the one I had from my side of the room.
I continue to work with the MLS Commissioner and Merritt to put Portland in the best position possible to get the nod for the next expansion team.
Keep your fingers crossed.

Mr. Leonard -
On behalf of myself and the members of the TA, we very much appreciate all that you have done for the MLS effort up to now, and for the continued efforts that will come. I know that you realize this is a special opportunity for Portland, and so keep up the good work. You know you have a large group of us that are willing to do what we can to help.
Bring MLS to Portland!!

text: Chelonia mydas, commonly known as the Green turtle, is a large sea turtle belonging to the family Cheloniidae. The range of the species extends throughout tropical and sub tropical seas with two distinct populations in the Atlantic and Pacific. With a flattened body, a beaked head at the end of a short neck, and paddle-like arms well adapted for swimming, it derives its common name from the green fat underneath its shell. Adults are known to grow to 1.5 m long and the average weight of mature individuals is around 200 kilograms. Males are larger than females and neither can pull their heads inside their shells. The carapace of the turtle is known to have various colour patterns that change over time. Hatchlings are mostly black, while juveniles are dark brown and adults are entirely brown, spotted or marbled. Sea turtles spend almost all their lives submerged but must breathe air for the oxygen. With a single exhalation and rapid inhalation, sea turtles can quickly replace the air in their lungs. They can rest or sleep underwater for several hours at a time, but submergence time is much shorter while diving for food or to escape predators as their breath-holding ability is affected by activity and stress. Although their habitat is the sea, Pacific green turtles are known to crawl onto secluded beaches during the day to bask in the sun. The ecology of Chelonia mydas changes drastically with each succeeding stage of its life history. For instance, newly emerged hatchlings are carnivorous and pelagic (ocean going), while immature juveniles and adult turtles are commonly found in sea-grass meadows closer inshore as herbivorous grazers. Gowri gave this minisheet to me.

Textinformationen kommer från last.fms wiki
With nearly 5 million albums sold worldwide, performances at the world's top Latin music festivals, and two Grammy nominations, Fulanito is one of the most popular and innovative acts ever born of the fertile uptown New York Latin hip-hop scene.
Founded by Winston De La Rosa and his brother in-law Rafael Vargas, Fulanito is the first group known to combine "perico ripiao" - traditional accordion-based merengue sounds from the hills of the Dominican Republic - with modern hip-hop and rap.
While industry leaders initially questioned the commercial potential of such an unusual mix of sounds, Fulanito proved them wrong, becoming a party favorite in the U.S., the top-selling act in Colombia, and one of the most recognizable an...

Okay, here's my public service announcement for the month, maybe even the year, so listen up:
Home Depot — my dad's favorite — is the first national chain store to start a compact fluorescent light bulb recycling program.
Customers can bring in any expired, unbroken CFL bulbs and give them to the associate behind the returns desk. The company says the bulbs will then be "managed responsibly by an environmental management company who will coordinate CFL packaging, transportation, and recycling to maximize safety and ensure environmental compliance."
I don't know how much this is going to cost them, but to me, this seems to make good business sense. You have to think that people who buy CFL bulbs rather than traditional light bulbs are perhaps already trying to be more environmentally conscious or are trying to save money. Giving those people an easy way to recycle them seems like a good way to lure people into your store.
(Every time I go to Home Depot, I always end up buying more than I came for. Usually plants.)
What I don't understand is why Home Depot Canada has had a similar program since last November.

Characteristics of Injustice Collectors
1. Injustice collectors are never wrong. How is it possible that they are never wrong? It's simple: They are always right.
2. Injustice collectors never apologize. Ever. For anything.
3. Injustice collectors truly believe they are morally and ethically superior to others and that others seem incapable of holding themselves to the same high standards as the injustice collector does.
4. Injustice collectors make the rules, break the rules and enforce the rules of the family. They are a combination of legislator, police, judge and jury to those they consider their subjects. They forever banish from their kingdom any subject they deem disloyal, and only grant clemency if there is sufficient (in their eyes) contrition.
5. Injustice collectors never worry about what is wrong with them as their "bad" list grows. Their focus is always on the failings of others.
6. Injustice collectors are never troubled by the disparity between their rules for others and their own expectations of themselves. Injustice collectors rationalize their own behavior with great ease and comfort.
7. Injustice collectors have an external orientation; the problem always exists in the world, outside of themselves, and in their view, the world would be an acceptable place if their rules and standards were followed at all times.
8. Injustice collectors do not have a capacity for remorse, empathy or guilt.
9. Injustice collectors scoff at the idea of therapy, therapists, self-help books, and other tools used by people who struggle to live with them.
10. The phrase "walking on eggshells" describes life with an injustice collector.
11. The IC (injustice Collector) will prey upon your weaknesses to frame all issues in their terms.
12. IC's will always cry foul when you are 'mean' to them and accuse you of being nasty when you are confronting them with their negative behavior.
13. They are titanically insecure and cannot trust anyone. All relationships they have, even with their own parents and children and trustless and must be reinforced by subordination over and over.
14. They can only strengthen relationships through imprisoning their mates and banning behaviors and other relationships. Friends and family are a huge threat to the IC.
15. They must repetitively revisit situations where you service them, give in to them and agree with them. They will over time shrink your world to a small plot of empty activities that only they like. They are terrified of travel, meeting new people, understanding new concepts and paroling you from any punishment they have previously 'convicted' you of.
16. They do not care about you at all, they care about aggrandizing themselves with you as an assistant producer.
17. They will occasionally do something for you, but if you are not completely brainwashed, it will be a negative experience for you in the end. Example is throwing you a birthday party. I guarantee you will not have fun at your own party.
18. They will force you to choose between them and other things you like or love. The more you choose them, the more they will make you choose them over and over. They do not understand the concept of loyalty at all.
19. Hypocrisy is their modus operandi for debating and arguing with you. Everything they say about you is true about them. (aka Projection) It makes it so you try to 'win' fights by getting them to agree with you, which they never can because their whole position is false.
20. Your life will disappear into their lives. Your hopes and dreams will fade, even in your own mind. You will eat what they want, you will watch what they want on TV, you will vacation where they want, or not at all.

When you lay me down to sleep,
ignore the tears I sadly weep.
Ignore the raging screams I cry,
ignore my shouts and questions why?
Ignore my eyes that plead to you,
ignore my Demon shining through.
Strap my jacket nice and tight,
Inject my meds to calm my night.
Ticking clock and gleaning sweat,
the twilight thoughts of lost regret.
Voices rage to fill my mind
and bleed into the shadows blind.
Taunting, tainting, makes me weak,
ignore seductive lies they speak.
Suppress my Demon breaking through,
beware the dreams he'll promise you.
Beware his words of honey gold
and watch his games and lies unfold.
Warped distortions to my eyes
in worlds that burn and all that dies.
See beyond the looking glass,
sibyllic dreams that come to pass.
I can but watch as futures change
and shift within my vision's range.
I can't affect the hand of fate,
events unfold and so I wait.
With but a touch, I'll see your heart
and know what tears your soul apart,
see your thoughts and life unfold
and know the secrets that you hold.
I don't feel safe to be around,
It's why I'm here so tightly bound.
Call me prophet, call me mad,
I'm lost in all the dreams I've had.
Kindly strap my jacket tight,
and bid to me a warm good night.

WOAH! What's the source for the number of daily used straws? I want to share that, but I like having sources. 🙂
Sorry! I didn't get my resource linked. 🙂 http://www.nps.gov/commercialservices/greenline_straw_free.htm
Crazy. I hate straws, but so often, after placing an order, someone will put one into my drink anyways – before I can even schour "No!". I have started going towards zero waste only ca. 2 months ago, and often forget to emphasis this when ordering…! How do you make yourself remember before its too late?
I've tried making sure I have my reusable straw in my hand before we even sit down. It always helps me remember and when the waiter sees my reusable, it helps them to remember as well.

NFL gamers have protested the nationwide anthem for a bit of over a yr now.
First, they kneeled for Black Lives Matter, then in opposition to "police brutality." Now, they're kneeling to protest racial injustice.
But has kneeling helped them increase consciousness? Has their weekly spectacle modified any insurance policies or legal guidelines? No. If something, their protest has backfired spectacularly—it's merely made loads of Americans cease watching soccer.
No one must be stunned—kneeling throughout the nationwide anthem isn't a great way to focus consideration on a subject. The gesture is a broad, overgeneralized indictment of America. It shouldn't be a critique of injustice, nor does it pave the best way for significant reform.
There are higher methods to protest, and higher venues for protest than soccer video games.
It's simple to have sturdy, visceral emotions about disrespecting America. It's tougher to get keen about tax regulation. But if there was ever a time to really feel outraged over the tax code (aside from Tax Day), that point is now.
Section 501 (c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code gives an inventory of tax-exempt commerce organizations: enterprise leagues, chambers of commerce, actual property boards, boards of commerce, soccer leagues. Which certainly one of this stuff shouldn't be just like the others?
I name a quick timeout for a historical past lesson.
The NFL was first granted tax-exempt standing in 1942. When the NFL and AFL merged in 1966, Commissioner Pete Rozelle wished the NFL's tax exemption made everlasting. Meanwhile, two Louisiana Democrats wished a soccer group, and an only-in-Washington alternative introduced itself.
In a swampy tit-for-tat, House Majority Whip Hale Boggs, D-La., and Senate Finance Committee Chairman Russell Long, D-La., completely codified the NFL's tax exemption.
According to Michael MacCambridge, writer of "America's Game: The Epic Story of How Pro Football Captured a Nation," Rozelle was so delighted to listen to the tax information that he stated, "Congressman Boggs, I don't know the way I can ever thanks sufficient for this."
Boggs instantly countered with, "What do you imply you don't know the right way to thank me? New Orleans will get a right away franchise within the NFL."
Sure sufficient, one yr later, the Saints got here marching in.
To be clear, the tax exemption doesn't apply to groups. Teams and gamers each pay taxes. The standing applies solely to the NFL League Office.
This particular deal with can be a bit of extra palatable—although nonetheless unfair—if the League Office merely dealt with paperwork and pensions. Unfortunately, the NFL League Office's primary obligation is negotiating stadium offers.
Stadiums are funded primarily by taxpayer dollars, introduced in by means of elevated taxes and municipal bond financing schemes. Over the previous decade, $7 billion in taxpayer dollars had been spent on stadiums. In some egregious instances, cities constructed new stadiums even whereas their residents had been nonetheless paying off previous stadiums that had since closed.
This is company welfare run amok, and a gross misuse of American residents' tax cash—one thing the federal government should deal with with respect.
As many pundits have famous, the NFL League Office voluntarily gave up its tax-exempt standing in 2015. Until the tax code modifications, nevertheless, it might probably revert to being tax-exempt at any time when it chooses.
Equally importantly, the NHL, PGA Tour, and LPGA are additionally at the moment tax-exempt, regardless of incomes over $2 billion per yr in gross income.
These are really "tax breaks for billionaires," to cite Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and the textbook definition of a special-interest loophole. It's time to revoke this pointless, undeserved tax break. Why ought to "massive sports activities" get tax breaks that companies and households throughout America don't get?
That's why I've determined to be the lead sponsor of H.R. 296, the PRO Sports Act, a invoice that will finish the tax-exempt standing for sports activities leagues making over $10 million yearly.
I've despatched a letter to Rep. Kevin Brady, R-Texas, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, asking for this to be included within the tax overhaul.
With tax reform at the moment one of many highest priorities of Congress, it's time to finish this unjustified, unjustifiable provision.
In 2016, the Joint Committee on Taxation estimated that the PRO Sports Act would herald over $150 million in new income. With America $20 trillion in debt, each greenback helps—and, extra importantly, it restores some equity to the tax code.
If gamers select to protest, then I can select to not watch. It's as simple as turning off the tv. But the tax code signifies that all taxpaying Americans are financially supporting professional sports activities, whether or not they need to or not.
Ending this tax break would change issues. If gamers need to protest, allow them to do it on their very own time, and on their very own dime. The American individuals shouldn't must pay for it.

Avalon Curvy Nude Fairy
When's the last time you saw a naked fairy just roaming in the forest?
Avalon from Nude Muse
is here to answer that fantasy, but I have a feeling most of you would rather be feeling

This first photo is a picture of the work in progress, before much of the painting happened.
I include it only to show how the piece evolved, since it's a bad picture.
The base is a 18"x 20"collage of book pages on canvas. Over this I drew with permanent black marker. I added layers of more book pages, music pages, corrugated cardboard, newspaper, sewing patterns. Using the patterns of the pasted papers to give the painting shape, I then painted with acrylic paints over top.
The snow is created using bubble wrap dipped in paint. The clouds are made with dryer sheets.
I used stamps throughout. There are hints of pearlized stamps in sky that only are visible in a certain light. I used the Illuminate Stamp pad for these.
Here is a close up of my birds, textured with.black microbeads over pieces of torn black tissue paper. Silver dots embellish their edges.
The inspiration behind the piece is the little walking path near my place which provides a view of these telephone poles and a bit of a messy building site. However a cold grey winter and its falling snow turned a routine doggie walk, into a striking moment with the starkness of the white snow, the grey undertones of frozen earth and these black birds.
I've been working slowly on this for months, chipping away at it. I'm a newbie to mixed media so still experimenting and hope to share more creations soon.

William Stacy Redmon, who was convicted of killing a woman in a DUI charge and spent seven years in prison, has been arrested again for drunk driving. Redmon was convicted of killing a woman in a drunk driving accident in Hardin County.
No Regard for Human Life
Now he has been arrested in Bullitt County for driving under the influence, possession of an open alcoholic beverage in a motor vehicle, and failing to signal. However, according to reports Redmon's current offense will be considered a first offense since he has not been arrested for DUI for five years. This ensures that legally his current DUI will be treated as a first offense and he will not be penalized more heavily.
Why Redmon was not executed or put away for about 40 years for his first offense boggles the mind of so many. It is amazing that he is allowed to drive again so early in his life.
Drunk driving accidents are treated seriously by law enforcement and the penalty for a second drunk driving arrest or accident can be very high. However, if you have been arrested for drunk driving or causing a drunk driving accident you need to retain the services of a drunk driving accident attorney who can represent you in court. A charge of drunk driving normally leads to a suspension of driving privileges as well unless your lawyer can convince the Department of Motor Vehicles to let you drive.
The Trial
When you are accused of causing a drunk driving accident, the drunk driving lawyers will examine all the evidence against you and object to those that were collected in violation of your rights. Also, during the trial, the prosecution might want to present information that should legally be kept out of court.
In such cases, an experienced drunk driving accident lawyer will be able to raise objections and ensure that your case is tried while your legal rights are protected. If you find that you have been charged with causing a drunk driving accident you need to contact reliable drunk driving accident attorneys as soon as possible.

1. DaWanda Shop Name: Cosy Candles & Aromas
2. DaWanda Shop URL: http://cosycandles/dawanda.com
3. When did you open your shop? Jan 2008
4. Are you in the DaWanda Shop Directory here? Yes, just joined
5. What Category are you under? other
6. What do you sell? I make hand poured scented soy wax candles and melts
7. Describe 2 of your current products.
Tumbler Candle – This is a 180g (6oz) container candle. It's made from soy wax which is a renewable resource so it is eco friendly. I use top quality fragrance oils especially imported from US to scent them. I don't colour my tumblers as soy wax has a natural creamy colour. This enables it to match any decor in your home. All I then do is place a plain clear label and voila! One classy looking product.
Snap Apart Wax Melts – This is a really nifty way of selling wax melts. They're made from eco friendly soy wax and scented with top quality fragrance oils. I do colour these as we do need some colour in our lives. Now for those that don't know, wax melts are made to be used in an oil burner. You pop a fragranced block in the top dish and light an unscented tealight underneath to release the aroma. The nifty thing about them is that they "snap apart" just like a chocolate bar. This is very handy as dish sizes vary from one oil burner to another. Most should accommodate 2 blocks but some can only take 1 so this is better than ending up with some overspill. One handy thing about soy wax is that if you do have any accidental spillages it all washes out with hot soapy water. Because it's veggie based there's no need for solvents.
8. Tell me a bit about you... I'm a WAHM to 3 teenagers. I help run my hubby's PC repair business from home and this has given me the perfect opportunity to run my part time candle business from home too. I've always loved burning scented candles and was spending a fortune on them. I tried buying cheaper candles but they were awful. No smell, wouldn't burn properly, some turned into flame throwers, the usual complaints. So I started making them as a hobby for myself. I soon found it to be highly addictive. I started doing more research on the subject and that is when I found out about soy wax. I liked the whole idea about it being a renewable resource. I soon found myself making candles for family and a few friends. They thought that they were better than mass produced ones. They also liked the fact that as they were vegetable based they were doing their bit to help the environment. So after 2 years of research and testing and much convincing by family and friends Cosy Candles was finally created towards the end of 2007. My 16 year old daughter Laura-Jayne helps me in the business. She makes the wax melts as they are easy to do – no wicking involved! I make everything else for the moment but we both wrap, label and package our products. I'm in the process of expanding our range to offer different types of containers and pillars. Eventually, we will also be offering room sprays, incense sticks/cones and pot pourri.
9. Do you have a website, or blog? Yes my site is http://www.cosycandles.com/ and my blog is http://cosycandles.blogspot.com/

To add a new uninstall task for your organization, click on the "Applications" tab, and select "Other Tasks", and click "Add" under the uninstall tasks section. To edit an existing uninstall task, click on the name of the uninstall task on the "Other Tasks" page.
To save the new uninstall task, or update the existing one, fill in the fields on the form, and click "Save". Importantly, you need to provide the conditions for when the application is considered to be installed, under "Installed Conditions". Also, you need to provide a method for uninstalling the application, which is also described below.
Note: You can mouse over any of the field labels for an explanation.
Enter the name of the application.
Enter the description of the application.
Enter any notes you wish to keep about the task.
Input the system conditions for when the application is considered to be "installed", by clicking on the "Edit" button. OptiTune will consider the task deployment successful when these conditions are not met.
For MSI applications, you would typically specify the MSI product code as the installed condition. For non-MSI applications, you would typically specify an "Uninstall Key" as the installed condition (the subkey name under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall in the registry).
Select the method to use to uninstall the application. If the Installed Conditions are met (the application is installed), then the uninstall method will be executed by the OptiTune client.
The options available include:
· Msi Product – Use MSI to uninstall the program
· Uninstall Key – Use the command in the specified uninstall key (along with extra command line arguments) to uninstall the program.
· Command Line – Use the command line specified to uninstall the program.
If the Uninstall Method selected is "Msi Product", then fill in the MSI Product Code for the application you wish to uninstall. This is the simplest and most reliable way to uninstall an application.
If the Uninstall Method selected is "Uninstall Key", then fill in the subkey name under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall in the registry for the application you wish to uninstall. On the client computer, OptiTune will lookup the "UninstallString" registry value, and execute it to uninstall the program. If you use this option, make sure you test that it won't require any user input by running it yourself from the command line on a test computer.
If the Uninstall Method selected is "Uninstall Key", provide any extra command line arguments to pass to the uninstaller defined by the Uninstall Subkey, to ensure the uninstall is a silent operation. The Optitune client will lookup the "UninstallString" registry value inside HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\<subkey>, where <subkey> is the "Uninstall Subkey Name" provided above. Then, it will append the "Extra Arguments" you supply here to the uninstall command line from the registry.
If the Uninstall Method selected is "Command Line", provide the full command line to run to uninstall the application. You will likely need to use environment variables in this string, to ensure it works across several computers. For example:
· %programfiles%\myapp32\bin\uinstall.exe /s /r
· %programfiles64%\myapp64\bin\uinstall.exe /s /r
Enter the maximum time, in minutes, to wait before giving up on the task. Note that if the uninstaller requires user input, OptiTune will simply have to wait until the timeout expires, before cancelling the task, since it cannot provide any user input to the uninstall process. You need to make sure that the uninstall process does not require user input beforehand by testing it on a client computer.

Dear Esther trailer is ridiculously beautiful
I dont care if you dont think it counts as a game, this Dear Esther trailer wins my Video of the Day Award.
Dont you just want to wander around those beautifully crafted landscapes, exploring a haunting narrative and being assaulted by glorious audio?
The long-awaited professional release of former Half-life mod Dear Esther launches on Steam on February 14, which totally bollocks any plans you had to spend the day romancin anything other than your computer monitor. Which you will want to kiss. With tongues.
Developed by thechineseroom, the games creative director Dan Pinchbeck, announced the release date on the games official website.
In the game, players will try to uncover the mystery of a mysterious island, how they got there, and who they are. Fragments of story will be randomly uncovered, and it is up to the player to figure out if what they are seeing is real, or if its an illusion. Along the way, they will try to find out who Esther is, and why she chose to summon you to the island.
You can look at various screens of the environment you will be exploring through the official site, and we have to say that weve personally been looking forward to its re-release for quite some time.
Pinchbeck will also be hosting a GDC 2012 lecture titled Dear Esther: Making an Indie Success Out of an Experimental Mod. In it, Pinchbeck will talk of his experience working on his critically acclaimed Source engine mod and will pick apart the relationship between mechanics and the game world. He will also be pondering some of the less-explored realms of game design and interactive storytelling.
Dear Esther was originally built using the Source engine, and originally released in 2008 as a mod for Half Life 2. In 2009, it was picked up by game artist, Robert Briscoe, for a complete overhaul of the visuals and level design. In 2010 Valve granted a license to make Dear Esther a completely independent release.
The game will be released on Steam, and will run you $9.99.

Launched in the rain at 11:00 AM Saturday from Sugar Barge. I provided the mornings ramp entertainment by forgetting to put the plug in. Windy and rainy and close to high tide. I worked inside Mandeville after scraping bottom getting through the small entrance on the NW side. Stay to the right coming in. Hyacinth was rampant but will often hide bait.
Great looking water but slow fishing. At the Connection slough bridge I remembered to take the rods out of the rocket launchers. I continued on into Mildreds where I spent 2 hrs probing every corner of her lusciousness. Dinks but no moes. Weather getting better as the day went by.
Heading east into the river I found some birds working.
But the birds were keying off a seal eating a fat salmon. I flailed until sunset frustrated but very grateful for the time on the water.

Sunday, July 2 | A Love Better Than Life
Read today's psalm as your prayer.
Psalm 63:1–8
You, God, are my God,
earnestly I seek you;
I thirst for you,
my whole being longs for you,
in a dry and parched land
where there is no water.
I have seen you in the sanctuary
and beheld your power and your glory.
Because your love is better than life,
my lips will glorify you.
I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands.
I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods;
with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
On my bed I remember you;
I think of you through the watches of the night.
Because you are my help,
I sing in the shadow of your wings.
I cling to you;
your right hand upholds me.
A Way to Cultivate Love This Week
Below is form of prayer that can help us cultivate lives of love by increasing our intimacy with Christ as we grow in awareness of God's presence in our everyday lives. Try setting aside ten minutes each day to practice this discipline and see what God does!
- Take a deep breath and remember that you are in God's loving presence.
- Review the last 24 hours with gratitude. As you look back, what are you thankful for?
- Now examine the last 24 hours and notice the moments you lived with a deep sense of love for God and for others? Now notice the moments you were living out of a sense of self-interest instead of love for others?
- As you examine your day, do any emotions stand out—positive or negative? Take time now to talk about those emotions with God and listen for God's response.
Finally, look forward to the coming day. When do you think you'll be tempted to act out of self-interest? When do you most hope to respond in love? Invite God into these moments.

When I was a kid hockey accessories were pretty difficult to come by compared to today. I remember getting so excited anytime I could go to a professional hockey game because I knew that the rink would be selling mini hockey sticks, lil' brats hockey key chains, hockey card sand other hockey related accessories.
Nowadays though, with the advancements of technology and the internet it is much easier to purchase hockey accessories. Going online and visiting professional, minor league, college and junior hockey websites you can usually find an abundance of accessories relating to your favourite team. You can also visit websites such as Ebay and Craigslist to find accessories and collectibles that are new and old alike.
Though it is nice to have easy access to fun ice hockey accessories, I must admit that I actually prefer the way it used to be. The reason why I do not prefer such easy access to hockey related products is because I do not believe that kids these days can appreciate them in the way that I used to when I was young. It was always great to look forward to going to a hockey game or tournament in order to maybe find a new hockey accessory that I could treasure. However, being able to get any hockey accessories that you want with the click of a mouse somehow takes away from the fun of actually coming across the item at your local ice rink.
Despite the fact that the internet and technology has evolved into a tool that can make our lives much easier, I do have to say that there was something nice about not having access to buy anything you could possibly want online.
Hockey accessories are not the only products that have been somewhat negatively affected by advancements in technology, the same goes for ice hockey equipment…purchasing any product online does not have the same feel as purchasing at your local hockey shop, but you do have access to many more products and deals with the internet so it can't be all that bad right?

Catastrophe star Rob Delaney reveals son's death
Comedian and actor Rob Delaney has announced the death of his two-year-old son Henry in an emotional Facebook post.
The 41-year-old American, who stars in the popular UK sitcom Catastrophe, said his family were "devastated" following the toddler's death from cancer in January.
Two-and-a-half-year-old Henry was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2016. Despite surgery to remove it and further treatment, the cancer returned in autumn last year and he died last month.
Delaney, who lives in London, wrote: "He was smart, funny, and mischievous and we has so many wonderful adventures together. His drive to live and to love and to connect was profound.
"I am astonished by the love-in-action displayed by Henry's mom and his brothers. They are why I will endeavor to not go mad with grief. I don't want to miss out on their beautiful lives. I'm greedy for more experiences with them."
Henry had been left with significant physical disabilities by the tumour, Delaney said, but had "quickly learned sign language and developed his own method of getting from A to B shuffling on his beautiful little bum".
Delaney also praised nurses and doctors, home carers and charity workers who he described as his "heroes" for helping the family, and urged readers to take "concrete and sustained action" to support the NHS.
He added: "Thank you, beautiful Henry, for spending as much time with us as you did. We miss you so much."
So very sad to hear this, at the same time as being incredibly moved and uplifted by the spirt in which you wrote that post. All the best to you and your family.
— David Baddiel (@Baddiel) February 9, 2018
On Twitter and Facebook, David Baddiel, Alison Moyet and Dom Joly were among those who have expressed their condolences.
Singer Alison Moyet said: "I am so terribly sorry for your loss. I can't imagine the pain. I wish you and yours what ever comfort is possible."
Comedian Dom Joly said: "So sorry to hear about your boy."
Delaney, who was one of the first comedians to develop a fanbase through Twitter, has spoken extensively on the importance of the NHS and in support of universal healthcare in the US.

I know that we should all eat healthier, but it is really hard liveing in modern society with all the conviences of fast food. Can anyone suggest what they've done and did it work?
I make meals on the "weekends" with hubby to freeze ahead so that when I am home alone and need to fix dinner for them and have it ready for them its just pull it out of the freezer and pop into either the microwave or oven. As for types of food, well I eat a lot of chicken breast, boneless skinless. veggies and fruit, yogurt...watermy one downfall is my diet pepsi...sorry can't go with out that. However I have switched to caffiene free in the evenings.When I do eat red meats I make sure they are lean and very little fat. like when I make tacos I use 7% diet lean hamburger...its really tastey and not as much fat.Also not over eating is a big thing...I feel really bad when I over eat...like bogged down and its not good for you...well its helped me by losing weight and that makes me feel good about myself.
many hugs
