This and That
I wanted to share this cute picture of Owen. He is 2 1/2 now and growing up way too fast.
It's been snowing all day. Right now it's some little flurries here and there. I'm kind of bummed that it's winter all ready. I was really enjoying the Indian summer but I'm excited for Christmas. It's been great to have the stores doing sells already so I don't have to deal with the Black Friday crowds and the December madness. I have 3 people already done!
Barry's hernia surgery went well on the 7th. The doctor was hoping to do a laparoscopic procedure but the hernia was too big. Barry ended up with a pretty deep 7 inch incision instead. He got the staples out Thursday but there is some nerve damage. He's healing slowly and still pretty sore. He had a endoscopic exploratory procedure done before his surgery. The doctor wanted to see what damage his hiatial hernia has done to his esophagus. They dilated his esophagus a bit because he has had trouble swallowing. They didn't find any serious problems so he is just to take an acid reducer as needed.
I've been trying to wart off the waiting for baby blues. I've gotten involved by doing the Families Supporting Adoption blog for the Idaho Falls chapter. Every office of LDS Family Services has one. It's main purpose is to promote adoption (and in doing so hopefully bring in more birthmothers) but it is also a support group of sorts. Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I post and then I post any events our chapter is having. You'll have to check it out (http://fsaidahofalls.blogspot.com)
Owen is doing well and knock on wood hasn't been sick. We've tried to keep him home as much as possible with all this flu going around. Next week we are going to try to get the H1N1 flu mist for him. Anyway, he is growing like a weed. He has been eating none stop the last week and then yesterday and today he hasn't ate much at all. Must be a growth spurt. He's talking better and if you are around him a lot you can make out more than just 2 words. He sure is spoiled though. He knows just how to get his way with Barry and I. I'll be so happy when he gets baby brother or sister and has to learn to share in multiple ways. The other day he told me "me poop" and banged on his bum. It's the first time he's ever done that. It definitely makes me more hopeful about potty training him next year.

Mushes (aka Kisses) for the Cousins
Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I've been busy posting on the Families Supporting Adoption blog for the Idaho Falls Chapter.
Things are going OK for us. I have to remind myself that things could be worse. Barry is having his hernia repaired November 4th. I'm not looking forward to his surgery. Last time he went into surgery for his back he had a hard time waking up because of all the pain. Not an experience I want to re-live. Anyway, at the same time they are going to do a laparoscope down his throat to get a better look at his esophagus. He has a hiatus hernia (where your stomach pokes up through your diaphragm) that causes too much stomach acid reflux. We are praying that nothing is revealed that requires more surgery.
I am all excited to have Autumn here. It truly is my favorite season. It's so nice to have cooler days. Owen can go out and we can play much longer without it being uncomfortable. I love being able to wear sweaters and see the colors change. I love the pumpkin treats to be had (pumpkin pie cake, pumpkin chip cookies and break, pumpkin rolls, etc.). I have my Halloween decorations up and I cannot wait for us to carve some pumpkins with Owen. Owen is going to be Thomas the Train this Halloween. I ordered it used off E-bay for a 1/3 of the cost brand new. I had him try on his costume to see if it was going to need to be taken up a bit (turned out to be just perfect). He wouldn't let me take it off the rest of the night. I'll post pictures the day after Halloween.
I want to thank [sarcastic undertones here] Barry for exposing Owen to Sesame Street. More specifically Elmo which Owen calls Samo (it was cute the first 20 times). Anywho, now Elmo is the new love of Owen's life. He still loves Thomas and trains but he's on this Elmo kick lately. We ended up buying him a plush Elmo because he was carrying around/sleeping with the Elmo bubble bath we got him. He eats, sleeps, and plays with his Elmo now. I guess there could be worse characters he could be obsessed with (like Barney).
Here is a picture of Owen eating lunch with his Elmo. He wouldn't cooperate taking his picture earlier so I took it at lunch.
Here is Owen wearing Great Grandpa Olsen's hat. You can see he's holding his Elmo bubble bath (this was before we got his plush Elmo)

Making a Change
I've been doing a lot of thinking lately. I know you're going to think in a minute, "Does she ever think about anything but getting another baby?" My simple answer is YES, but it's something I want so badly that it's hard for me control. Plus for me, I think all the time and sometimes I think so much that my brain hurts.
Anyway, back to the point of this post. Barry and I have been praying as to what we should at this point. The answer came and He has promised there is a baby for us but we are to continue waiting, endure the waiting, and be content with what the He has already given us. Not exactly what I wanted to hear but how can you argue with God. The scriptures tell us that we are to become "as a child, submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father."
So I've been thinking how can submit to Heavenly Father's will and wait any longer? I've concluded that His answer to be content is my answer. I admit that I struggle with being satisfied. It's always the next thing that will solve everything. My next question is, how can I be content? The answer came to me the other day. I need to count my blessings (a.k.a. express gratitude). I remember a while back Oprah was on a big kick about gratitude journals. I've decided to start one in my quest to change and be content. Not only am I hoping it will get me through the wait but I also hope it will invoke the law of attraction (negative attracts negative, positive attracts positive). Barry is always gripping about my negativity. And yes, I am frequently negative. Maybe this journal will be my way to stop being so negative. Now if I can just make it a habit so no matter how hard this waiting gets, I can remember my blessings and write down 5 things I'm thankful for every night.
Here is a little audio clip from Oprah's XM radio talk show about gratitude. It's really good.
Our Summer Nights
I figured I haven't posted any pictures of Owen for awhile. He'll be 2 and 1/2 years old this October. Time sure flies. Anyway, about 6 o'clock at night it's just cool enough to let Owen out to play. It's about the same every night. Thanks to Owen's Uncle David & Aunt Joni we were able to borrow their sandbox last year. Owen still loves to play in it. His favorite thing is to shovel sand in his wheel toy and watch the sand run through from above.
He is so focused when he's playing with dirt.
Good thing we have wonderful neighbors that have given us permission to let Owen play on their swing set. It'd be so impossible to keep him away from it since we don't have a fence yet. He was big into swinging at first and scared of the slide. Now all he wants to do is go down the slide.
Running to go down again!

What's a Little Mud?
I think the picture speaks for itself. After pulling Owen away from a mud puddle several times, Owen relented to temptation and jumped right in. He even took a taste of the mud. Needless to say he went straight to the tub.

Adoption Banner
I know it's hard to catch the Web address I type in the "From the Web" box. It is http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo177/idahogurl99/hopeToAdopt.jpg
In the "Link" box, type http://www.barryandrebecca.com/
We cannot say thank you enough to everyone for their continued help. It has buoyed our spirits and kept us going. The adoption process is a long one. It took us 18 months to finally get Owen in our arms. So we only ask for your continued help and we know the blessings of heaven will come to you too.
I feel like I need to share our experience with finding Owen. After a year of waiting for a baby, my uncles came to Barry and I and asked us how they could help. We decided to hold a family-wide fast on January's fast Sunday. Only two weeks later we found out that a birthmother was seriously considering us to adopt her baby and wanted to meet us. So now we have Owen and desire with all our heart for him to have a little brother or sister someday soon. Whether it is through prayer or through a cousin of a friend of a friend we know it will happen.
I've been reading a book called "Unsung Lullabies." Our caseworker suggested I read it. It is SO GOOD. It helps you understand the feelings and struggles infertile couples go through especially women. I highly recommend it to anyone who has a friend or family member who is choosing adoption or medical help to have children.

The number 9 is not usually a daunting number, and actually it is one of my favorites. I consider all numerals of 3 to be lucky, especially, 3, 6, and 9. (I always manage to get one of those three numbers in my bridle # for shows.)
9 is the natural number following 8 and preceding 10. Nine is a composite number, its proper divisors being 1 and 3. It is 3 times 3 and hence the third square number . It is the first composite lucky number..
But this is the first time I have ever been worried about the number 9. See, it's Yankee's new age this year. Officially, by Jockey Club standards he turned 9 on the New Year even though his real birthday isn't until March.
Mot horse people would consider 9 a good age for a horse, still young and vibrant, but I am fearful of it for one reason-WE HAVE ONLY EVER OFFICIALLY COMPETED AT TRAINING LEVEL. I KNOW he has the potential to be successful as a preliminary horse and even intermediate, but I am starting to have doubts about a 4* competitor. We have the basics down but we just need to pull everything together.
He is NINE! To me he should be much farther along in his competitive career at 9 then training level. I know 6 and 7 year old horses that are at prelim or higher already. I guess the biggest problem has been money. I am not rich by any means and half my time has been spent working to make enough to scrape by, let alone have $$ for shows-wich leaves not much time for schooling or showing. Sometimes I wish I was rich and could buy what I want, but more so, I feel lucky to have worked for it all, knowing I did it and no one else. That DOES make me proud, but I get discouraged SO easily.
I thought I did the right thing going to college, but I also feel it led me back two whole years too. I don't think I'm where I should be for a 20 year old eventer. I envy those 17-18 yr old Young riders who are already successful. I Know what to do, I just don't have the means yet...
I have so many thoughts swirling in my head right now, too many to type, so I will leave it at that. My rant probably seems jumbled and doesn't make too much sense either but it felt good to get it out there.
I do see hope in many places though, including this horse who remarkably resembles my horse.
Conformation and technique wise. His name is Clifton Promise and is a very successful eventer in NZ. He id no. 1 in NZ, and placed 7th at the WEG's. Conformation wise especially, I worry at times for fear Yankee lacks strength, but looking at Promise, I have more hope :D

Learning is the act of acquiring new, or modifying and reinforcing, existing knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, or preferences and may involve synthesizing different types of information. The ability to learn is possessed by humans, animals, plants and some machines. Progress over time tends to follow a learning curve. It does not happen all at once, but builds upon and is shaped by previous knowledge. To that end, learning may be viewed as a process, rather than a collection of factual and procedural knowledge. Learning produces changes in the organism and the changes produced are relatively permanent.
Human learning may occur as part of education, personal development, schooling, or training. It may be goal-oriented and may be aided by motivation. The study of how learning occurs is part of educational psychology, neuropsychology, learning theory, and pedagogy. Learning may occur as a result of habituation or classical conditioning, seen in many animal species, or as a result of more complex activities such as play, seen only in relatively intelligent animals. Learning may occur consciously or without conscious awareness. Learning that an aversive event can't be avoided nor escaped is called learned helplessness. There is evidence for human behavioral learning prenatally, in which habituation has been observed as early as 32 weeks into gestation, indicating that the central nervous system is sufficiently developed and primed for learning and memory to occur very early on in development.
Jurong East (Chinese: 裕廊东, Malay: Jurong Timur, Tamil: ஜூரோங் கிழக்கு), officially Jurong East New Town, is an urban planning area and residential town located within the western region of Singapore. The town borders Jurong West and Boon Lay to the west, Clementi to the east and Tengah and Bukit Batok to the north. Jurong East is also bounded by Selat Jurong to the south.
The development of Jurong started in the 1970s when estates such as Boon Lay, Taman Jurong, Bukit Batok, Bukit Gombak, Hong Kah, Teban Gardens and Yuhua were built, mostly due to the resettlement of Hong Kah (present-day Tengah) and surrounding villages. Yuhua, Teban Gardens, Bukit Batok and Bukit Gombak formed Jurong East.
There are 10 subzones in Jurong East.
The Northern section is under Jurong GRC and Southern section under West Coast GRC.
There are 3 Primary schools and 4 Secondary schools in Jurong East.

Hi there! Yeah, you ^_^. Thanks for watching! We're happy to share this collection of kids songs and nursery rhymes, starting off with a super simple goodbye song, "After A While, Crocodile." Let us know what you think in the comments ^_^. In case you're wondering, here's a little bit of information about the differences between alligators and crocodiles: - Alligators have u-shaped snouts. - Crocodiles have more v-shaped snouts. - Alligators' upper teeth often show when the mouth is closed. - Crocodiles' upper and lower teeth show when the mouth is closed. - Alligators generally live in fresh water. - Crocodiles generally live in salt water or water that is brackish (has more salt than typical fresh water.) -Neither make very good pets! Here's the lyrics to "After A While, Crocodile...
Webcast sponsored by the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre and hosted by the School of Library, Archival, and Information Studies (SLAIS). Once undertaken primarily by museum professionals, the activity of curatorship has been popularized via the Web. Social media tools, such as YouTube playlists and Pinterest Web bulletin boards, enable users to curate a diverse range of materials for personal use and for broader publication. But what makes one set of "curated" items more interesting than another? In this paper, we show how findings from an initial humanistic inquiry led to a lab-based user experiment, and how combined insights from these studies have illuminated new research streams in both humanistic and design research modes.

Mitchel Resnick's Lifelong Kindergarten research group developed the ideas and technologies underlying the LEGO Mindstorms robotic kits and the Scratch programming software used by millions of young people around the world. With these technologies, young people learn to design, create, experiment, and invent with new technologies, not merely browse, chat, and interact. Mitch's ideas and work are now at the centre of the debate about the curriculum for ICT in schools.

The Sacral Chakra is your passion and pleasure centre and it is located in the pelvic area. While the Root Chakra is satisfied with survival, the 2nd chakra seeks pleasure and enjoyment. The gift of this chakra is experiencing our lives through feelings and sensations. The second chakra is the centre of feeling, emotion, pleasure, sensuality, intimacy, and connection. The energy of this chakra allows you to let go, to move, and to feel change and transformation occurring within your body. It allows you to experience this moment as it is, in its own fullness. The main challenge for the second chakra is the conditioning of our society. We live in a society where feelings are not valued, where passion, and emotional reactions are being frowned upon. We are being taught not to "loose contro...

He then introduces us to the U.Lab an online course that aims to change, through introspection, how we interact with ourselves, others and nature so as to create a future of harmony.

Checking the contactor, I did have 240 at the contactor and 24v through the coil. I hope this fixes the problem . If spinning the fan manually will get it running, the problem is usually a bad starter capacitor. So it's not surprising a part may fail on a hot day when you need it the most.
A fan or motor drive shaft that is binding can kill or freeze the fan motor.

The wings of this mantid also only go about 3/4ths of the way down her abdomen
so it's a female? b/c it's an adult... but females are supposed to have wings 1/2 way down... not 3/4... so could it be a 3/4 grown male?(the wings don't make sense though)
dyflam, are you talking about the video? I remember a disc. channel mantis video where they showed a mantis eating a hummingbird... also a mouse and a snake
I didn't know about that spot thing! so 90% of the mantids I"ve seen are european go figure.... I live in NC and only see european mantids :P

Today was such an awesome day! Let me fill ya in!
There is the good and the bad!
The bad news is....
Ian was caught cheating on a test.
The good news is this....
The teacher took the test away from him and was going to give him a zero. But she waited a while and then gave him the test later and he passed the test!!! 87%!!! YAY!!!!
Then it gets better....
Not only did he pass one test...he passed 3!!! All 3 of them with a "B". That means he retained the information!!!
So now on his report card...instead of a D...he will come home with a B!!!
This week has been so much better. We've had a couple of meltdowns but overall....we've worked through them.
Chad and I really compliment each other on that. When our patience runs thin....the other one comes in and takes over. It really works out great.
All I can say is that GOD IS GOOD!!! When I was feeling dispair...He came through for not only me...but for Ian as well.
I know we still have a long road ahead....but I have been holding out for just a small ray of sunshine! TODAY WE GOT IT!

GREAT NEWS!!!!!! I'm so happy for you both!!! The smile on his face shows not only his joy, but the joy of knowing he did something that made you smile. Now that he knows how well he can do without cheating maybe that temptation won't be so strong. Celebrate the victory and love him through the tough spots. You're a great mom!

If you're a fan of the lesbian web series The Slope and F to 7th, you don't need me to tell you Ingrid Jungermann is one funny gay lady. Showtime must think so too, because they're adapting F to 7th for television. So it's safe to say we'll be seeing a lot more of Ingrid soon, but why wait? After a successful showing at Tribeca, her new film, Women Who Kill, is hitting the LGBT film festival circuit.
Ingrid wrote, directed and starred in the dark comedy Women Who Kill, a film about ex-girlfriends Morgan and Jean who work together on a true crime podcast. Ingrid plays paranoid Morgan, who eventually becomes suspicious that her new girlfriend, Simone, might be a murderer.
We recently got to chat with Ingrid and discussed why she's interested in a "different" kind of queer cinema, her developing thoughts on relationships, why she's excited for LGBT audiences to watch the film and more.
via Getty
AfterEllen.com: How motivated were you to write a script with queer women at its center that wasn't about them being queer, per se? I have to say, it's a good sign for the future of lesbian cinema that we can watch a movie about exes who work together on a podcast about female murderers.
Ingrid Jungermann: That's very important to me because I feel like we're in a time when we can focus more on story rather than identity and work in identity and sexuality into story. I make stuff that I feel like I would want to watch and I feel like my job as a filmmaker is to entertain an audience. So I just focus on story. Everything that I do, I'm always interested just in writing for women. I have very little interest in writing for men. It's just kind of a natural process for me to write for women. And it just so happens that most of the women in this movie are also queer. So I think it's a way to not only entertain an LGBTQ audience that might be a little bit past watching a film where it's just about coming out or the focus is about identity. I also think it's a way to reach a little bit of a wider audience and invite people who aren't LGBTQ into a story first and then have them realize that by the end they've forgotten that the story is any different from their own. For me, empathy and inclusion is kind of more what I'm drawn to.
AE: Is it a purposeful act, though, or does it just come as second nature to you to include these queer women as characters?
IJ: I think it's both. I'm definitely aware of it because all queer people, unfortunately, have to be aware of their identity everywhere they go. But it is second nature for me. That's where my interest lies, it's what my world is, and I want to write about the world I know because I'm tired of seeing TV and films where I'm not reflected in the characters. And I think audiences feel the same way, and not only LGBTQ audiences. I think audiences, they want to see something new and different. And back to what I said, I want to start seeing more diversity. And it's happening. Definitely in TV. I think film's a little bit behind. But it's still the idea that there's only room for one or two. You know, you can have the one gay show, you can have the one trans show, you can have the one black show, and that's it. That's a little frustrating for me because I don't think audiences are as simpleminded as the industry assumes.
AE: Speaking of different, the whole idea of a podcast about female murderers. Not to sound weird, but is that something that personally interests you?
IJ: I grew up watching many movies. Lots of horror films. Also, some really bad 1980s TV true crime. That was definitely part of my childhood. My mother watched Without a Trace probably 20 times. I'm inspired by that sort of true crime novel and true crime TV. So that's kind of found its way in. The characters started out as grad students, which was quite boring. And then it involved into them being writers, which was also boring. I think once I listened to Serial that's where it connected for me that they needed to do something like that because it was a lot more active.
AE: So onto them: Morgan and Jean are both so, unique let's call it, that you can't help but think they belong together. What are your thoughts on that?
IJ: I can only speak for my personal experience, which is I don't know if any two people really belong together. I think there's good matches and bad matches. But what I'm really interested in now is the deconstruction of what a relationship is. I think that we all are, honestly, programmed from a very early age about gender, about sexuality, and about what a relationship looks like on any side of it. And it bothers me that the idea of a fairy tale is kind of our first experience with relationships as a young person. I think that can be really detrimental to relationships. So this movie is me questioning commitment and questioning marriage and also questioning that sort of falling in love idea.

|Chapter 35
|Moses called a meeting of all the people (all 597,000+* of them?) to tell them some of God's laws. He first repeats the law about the sabbath, and reinforces to them that the penalty for working on the sabbath is death. He tacks on that they can't even light a fire in their houses on Saturdays.
Moses now gives the people God's wish list for gifts, which are to be used as the materials to build the tabernacle: gold, silver, and bronze; blue, purple, and scarlet cloth; tanned ram skins and treated goat skins; acacia wood; olive oil; spices for the incense and anointing oil; and various stones including onyx.
Moses now calls for craftsmen to help build the tabernacle and everything that it is to contain, as well as the priests' uniforms. The people go back to their tents and started either gathering or preparing these items.
Moses then tells them that God has appointed Bezalel as the general supervisor of the project, and states that God has also made him and his assistant Oholiab into gifted teachers to teach their building skills to others to aid them. He explain that God has filled them with the skills of carpentry, jewelry making, embroidery, and weaving.
|1.) Moses ordered the Levites to slaughter 3,000 people back in Exodus: Chapter 32. Also, an undetermined amount of people were likely killed in the plague that God sent shortly after.
|Moses gathers the remnant of the entire populace of Israel (the ones that weren't slaughtered by the Levites or by God's plague - which we can assume was possibly still over half a million people) and repeats the law about the sabbath to them. Moses even goes so far as to warn the people to not even light a simple fire in their homes, as the punishment for disobeying the sabbath law is death.
By the amount of times this law gets repeated in the book of Exodus, we can surmise that it's probably one of God's more important laws, which makes it puzzling as to why Christians don't feel the need to practice this law any longer, yet still cling to many other Mosaic laws from the Old Testament to explain away their opposition to homosexuality. Christians often tend to explain that Jesus' covenant later on with the people overrides all these old silly laws Moses brought to the people, yet it appears to be only *some* of the laws, the others remain for validating homophobia and intolerance. (We'll broach this subject much later on when we discuss the books of the New Testament.)
Next, Moses commands the people to start donating the items needed to finish building the tabernacle and to make the priests' garments, and tells them about Bezalel being appointed to supervise the construction, along with his assistant Oholiab. Both Bezalel and Oholiab have also been blessed with the talent to teach other people in the arts of construction and clothing design to help speed the process along.
|Chapter 36
|Moses recruits craftsmen to help Bezalel and Oholiab get started on their tasks, and the people of Israel began donating the materials, with additional donations appearing each morning. When the craftsmen found that they had more than enough donations, Moses restrained the people from donating any more.
The rest of the chapter simply describes the construction process of the tabernacle, which I don't feel it necessary to recount. If you might be interested in building your own tabernacle tent, feel free to read this chapter yourself!
|Moses gets his craftsmen to work completing the tabernacle and the donations start pouring in. Presumably, within a short period of time there's a surplus of materials and Moses has to restrain the people of Israel from donating anything more.
The craftsmen go to work and the rest of this monotonous chapter discusses each step that the craftsmen took in building God's tabernacle.

EXODUS: Chapters 35 & 36

Had an opportunity this morning to take another stroll down Memory Lane. An email from Wolfgang's Vault arrived and pointed the way to a tape-recorded concert of Jefferson Airplane, circa 1967. Wolfgang's Vault is an amazing website where an unbelievable number of concert tapes, made at countless Bill Graham (Graham's actual first name was "Wolfgang") musical events, are available to listen to for free. Check out their roster of artists - you are guaranteed to find someone you like and may spend a lot of time reliving some very great music.
Good music of that kind has an enormous capacity to transport you back to when you originally heard it. Music can embody a certain time, a specific place, who you were with at the time, and more importantly who you WERE when you heard it. Music can perfectly encapsulate an entire era or a part of your life. It does more than capture a moment - it captures a spirit, a consciousness, an essence. You can feel young and idealistic again - the world can once more explode with hope, possibilities, passion and potential.
The late sixties were a singular, pivotal point in time. American culture went through a drastic, radical, relatively instantaneous change. From the stodgy, stifling musical conformity of the previous decade, the Beatles and the British Invasion were a breath of fresh air against the blandness that went before them (except, of course, for Motown in the early sixties which still is and forever will be totally awesome). This set the stage for the Psychedelic Sixties, an immense blast of color and music and art and light that illuminated this country from coast to coast. Everything was new, fresh, wonderful and exciting. It was like a Great Awakening, a new Renaissance, a blossoming and opening of the mind, a time when you really, truly believed that anything was possible.
And the music! The music that was happening in California on the San Francisco/Los Angeles axis was a magnet that pulled everyone's attention to the west coast. For me the Jefferson Airplane was the first and only band for me. I played all their albums until they were worn smooth (I actually went through 3 copies of "After Bathing At Baxter's" - I'm talking vinyl here). Their music was powerful, soaring, uplifting and inspiring to me. Along with some friends, I hitchhiked in the dead of winter from Pittsburgh to Cleveland in 1970 to see them in concert. I was never so cold in my life but it was so worth it.
So many artists did fantastic, career-defining work in that era. The first Crosby, Stills and Nash album was simply amazing; the music and harmonies were so pristine and pure, just like sunlight in the "garden in the morning after it rained," to quote a line from the song "Guinevere." Joni Mitchell's "Ladies of the Canyon" is a perfect time capsule for me. Listening to those songs is like going on a mini-vacation for me. I can forget about whatever problems or issues I'm dealing with at the time and for a while I'm 18 years old again. But maybe my favorite album from that era is David Crosby's luminous, transcendent solo effort "If I Could Only Remember My Name." Unbelievably good from start to finish, it's almost too perfect and wonderful to be true. We may never hear music of that quality and beauty again.
Jefferson Airplane's majestic anthem to future times, "Wooden Ships," ends with the soaring voices of the singers chanting, "Go Ride The Music" over and over. It really is music that will literally and figuratively pick you up and carry you away. The sixties were like that - anything was possible - and you can still feel the power and hear the echoes at Wolfgang's Vault.

Social Obligation
Baby showers, bridal showers, weddings and such. I am not of a fan of these events. I even remember feeling uncomfortable at my own baby shower. Why should all these people feel obligated to bring me gifts? The burden extends beyond immediate family. Nowadays they get lists of co-workers and other acquaintances. Maybe it is because the holidays are looming large, but somehow the art of gift giving seems to have gotten lost. It is expected. You must draw a name at the office, or be a social leper. That takes the joy out of giving to me. Gifts are an intimate item. Something special. Given out of love or the need to bring some joy into another's life. Not because it is good office policy. The best gifts are unexpected. They become treasures. I save cards, mementos. I am sentimental. When my mood becomes blue, those little gifts change the hue of my mood. Shopping under duress is not fun. It equates stress. The obligatory X-mas card list. Every year new names because you fear leaving someone out. Punking out and just getting a stack of gift cards. Where is the joy? This year I will be in Georgia for Christmas. My resolution is the people I love are receiving gifts. My friends are receiving gifts. The local food bank will receive a gift. That is it. Oh yeah, my dog is getting a ton of gifts. He receives his little treats and rawhides better than any being I know. This move is the best gift my family has received in ages. Oh yes, I think what started me thinking about gift giving is attending a friends shower for her upcoming wedding. She opened the cards and didn't read them. Just shook them, waiting for money or gift cards to fall out. Than she said, "Just kidding".. There is a truth in every joke.

Didn't Westside used to do this before ?
You know Thought for the day mularkey kinda ting ?
What's "mularkey"
Trying to learn here
(Currently posting using ID "Sensual Delights")
Mullarkey is the same as sayin
And all that jazz
If u werent all ready confused i bet u are now
It's properly spelt "malarky". She's learning English so just to let her know, not that the word will ever do her much good.
karin_27, I'll give you lessons if you want.
You know like how they had a "Food for Oil" programme with poor countries?
We should have a "English lessons for Sex" programme with the eastern europeans!
For every 10 hours you spend talking to the girl and teaching/correcting her English you get one hour of sex. Sounds fair to me.
Ngn is correct, my spelling is off.
Malarkey it is - means nonsense, amusement, silliness
nearest german equivalent would be - blabla, I believe
I think my English is OK and it's getting better by the minute ... sometimes I even think I'm about to get a Cork accent
The trade programme sounds cool but I doubt many eastern europeans would agree to it, they're still loyal to "Cash for sex" programme ... sorry "Cash for company" programme and who can blame them
Still, a good idea if you can put it in practice

The NHS website notes: "There has been some controversy about whether the MMR vaccine might cause autism, following a 1998 study by Dr Andrew Wakefield".
It said there was a four-fold increase in cases as the disease affected 21,315 people and caused 35 deaths in 2017.
Measles cases across Europe soared by 400% previous year, according to the World Health Organisation. The measles vaccine was first introduced to combat the extremely contagious illness the 1950s, when about 500 Americans would die annually.
In its latest disease surveillance report for 2017, World Health Organization said declines in overall routine immunisation coverage and low coverage among some marginalised groups was the primary cause of the measles outbreak.
Today (20 February), ministers of 11 countries will convene to discuss ways they can work together in order to achieve the goals set out in the European Vaccine Action Plan (EVAP) by 2020, including measles and rubella elimination.
Donald Trump denies forcibly kissing woman in 2006
The former Bayrock Group receptionist has said that the encounter happened on the 24th floor of Trump Tower, not in the lobby. The claims have continually resurfaced as other tales of sexual indiscretions from Trump's past have made headlines.
There are now fifteen cases of measles infection confirmed in Limerick City this year and a linked case confirmed in Dublin.
"Kids up to 6 years old won't be accepted into nursery schools without them", reporter Christopher Livesay told NPR.
"This serves as an important reminder for parents to take up the offer of MMR vaccination for their children", she said. These cases have attended a number of community and healthcare settings across the city. A Region-wide midterm EVAP progress report will be presented at the 68th session of the WHO Regional Committee for Europe in September 2018.
Greece (967), Germany (927), Serbia (702), Tajikistan (649), France (520), the Russian Federation (408), Belgium (369), the United Kingdom (282), Bulgaria (167), Spain (152), Czechia (146) and Switzerland (105) also experienced large outbreaks, many of which were in decline by the close of 2017. As NPR's Jason Beaubien reports, Rohingya camps in Bangladesh have also seen recent outbreaks.
The figures indicate that a lower rate of vaccination could be behind the increase. A 2015 outbreak across multiple states is believed to have originated with a traveler who visited Disneyland. But 2017 had more than doubled that number. After about 3 days, a rash of "flat red spots" appears on the infected person's body.

|The Iron Dome
I thought it would be a quiet day... Up until now we have only had alarms go off once per every 24 hour period so I had reason to hope that if anything did happen it would only happen once. I was wrong... The first alarm sounded while I was in the middle of my Ulpan lesson. I could only hear a whisper of the alarm but the students flying out of the classrooms to the stairways confirmed my suspicion that an alarm had indeed sounded. The explosion the rockets made as they were taken down by the Iron Dome system was much easier to hear. 10 minutes we waited outside until we were sure it was safe to reenter the classroom. Normally my classroom is on the top floor of the building, but since the conflict began with Gaza we have been moved to the second level in case a rocket strikes the building. The next half of an hour or so were dedicated to everyone calling or receiving calls from their loved ones. The rule that cell phones have to be off during class has indefinitely been lifted while tensions run high in Israel. The most important thing is to be in touch with those we love to make sure they are ok, and that can't be suspended during class time.
Thankfully the rest of the morning went on without any disturbances, however, this was my first time being outside of either my home or Stephane's home during an alarm, so the experience was quite new for me. It is amazing being surrounded by so many others and knowing that you fear is not without reason, or that you are not overdramatizing the severity of the situation. I made it home with no problems that day, set off to do my homework, and then was invited to spend the night Stephane's apartment. It is hard for me not to be with him at night, especially during a time like this, because if God forbid something was to happen I would not want to be with anyone else (except my sister Ida). Because Tel Aviv had already had it's daily alarm I was not nervous about traveling to his place, which is about 25 minutes away from my own, and requires some walking through non sheltered areas. But, like I previously stated, there has not been a day since the fighting started that Hamas has sent missiles into Tel Aviv more than once in a 24 hour period.
Around 6pm I readied myself and headed out to catch the Monit Sherut (shared taxi) that would take me within 2 blocks of Stephane's apartment. As I was walking to get to the sherut I called my father because I figured it would be a perfect time to catch him up on everything that was going on here. I remember talking about the missiles, talking about the situation with Gaza and the greater Arab world, talking about how people think I should come home (to which he gave his full support and understanding of my decision and really my inability to leave Israel), and by the time I realized what was going on, it was time for me to exit the sherut and walk about 2 blocks the rest of the way. I said goodbye to my dad, jumped out of the taxi, and was on my way.
The rest happened so fast I almost didn't even realize what was going on. I was about a block down from where I exited the cab, in the middle of a crosswalk, when the sirens sounded. I was frozen I couldn't believe what was going on. Cars stopped, people exited their vehicles, some pulling their children out, and ducked down on the floor beside their cars. I was next to a girl about my age and we had no idea what to do so we laid down on the ground with our hands over our heads (like that would actually help at all). The next thing I know I see people pointing at the sky and I look up to see two rockets heading straight for Tel Aviv. The almost looked like planes with orange lights; just two little dots up in the sky. The first rocket was Hamas's, and the second was launched from Israel's Iron Dome interception system. I saw them both in the air, I saw the Iron Dome rocket approach the one launched by Hamas, and then I saw them explode in mid air upon collision. It looked like fireworks, but the sound of the explosion that rocked the city a few seconds after was nothing short of terrifying. I could almost feel the ground shake it was so loud.
Only a few seconds after I received a call from Stephane who was extremely worried because I was outside. I could tell he felt really bad. After assuring him I was ok, while running to try to get near some shelter or cover, I calmed down enough to call Ida and then get in touch with my dad to let him know what happened. I felt like I was in a movie it was so surreal. Seeing everything happen right in front of my face. Seeing all of this an knowing that there are still so many people out there who think we are baseless aggressors who are shamefully attacking the innocent people of Gaza... I will end this post with a plea to anyone and everyone who reads what I write:
I know what you read and hear and see on the Western Media outlets. It pains me because so much of it is blatantly untrue. I implore you all to please check facts before immediately believing what you see. The Hamas organization knows what its doing, and has always been good with PR. It places rocket launching sites, and weapon storage spaces, in residential areas (in homes, schools, even Mosques), so that when Israel targets these sites that are responsible for reeking havoc on our country, they maximize civilian casualties. They use their citizens as shields and do so willingly to look the part of the victimized martyrs. Yes innocent people die and I have nothing but compassion and sympathy for those who are killed because of the tactics of Hamas. Anyone who knows me knows I am the farthest thing you can get from being anti-Palestinian. But this operation started because of unrelenting bombardment of Southern Israel with hundreds of rockets, and if you think your countries would do anything different you are living in a dream world and NEED to wake up. You might ask how is it that the death tole in Gaza is reaching 100, while in Israel only 3 have died? To that I have one thing to say. Israel, above anything else, values the lives of its citizens, and does anything in her power to protect them. We are battling $500 dollar rockets from Gaza with $100,000 dollar rockets to knock them down, spending millions on safety and security because you can't put a price on people's lives. In Gaza they are putting rocket launching sites in homes and schools so that when Israel attacks said sites civilians die while they do nothing to protect their own. I bet you did't know that Israel broadcasts, sends text messages, and drops pamphlets in Gaza to announce when and where they will attack so that people can clear those areas... BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT! Hamas has also started reproducing pictures of deaths that happen in Syria and advertising that they are the deaths of Gazans and the hands of the Israelis. Please, for the love of all that is good, check what you see before believing it. There is more to this story than you are getting and it is vital you know the facts.
Pray for peace because we are going to need both your prayers and support.
Until we meet again,
Jordana Simone

Vince Wilfork not worried about slow start, confident he'll get better
Credit: The Associated Press
In the first three games of the season, Vince Wilfork has seemed un-Vince-like.
The defensive tackle has been in the thick of the defensive line for the Patriots, but his usual domination hasn't quite been there. He's totaled only nine tackles thus far and is coming off a three tackle game against Tampa Bay.
Today Wilfork said he's not worried about his slow start.
"You always want to get better. I'm always trying to get better. That's the name of the game," Wilfork said. "I really try not to, 'I've been playing good. I've been playing bad.' It's one of those things, you've got to keep plugging away. There's been some good plays I've had and some bad plays I've had. That's football. Everybody goes through that. There's a lot of football to be played. I'm not worried. I'm positive I will play better. I'm positive I'm going to have some more screwed up plays. Trust me, but that's football. It's just one of those things that every day and every week try to get better. That's where we're at now.
Wilfork was on the injury reporter yesterday with a foot injury, but it's unknown how much that's affecting him. The 31-year-old is coming off a dominant 2012 season where he made 48 tackles, three sacks, forced two fumbles, recovered four fumbles and batted down six passes.
The 10-year veteran said he's not worrying about personal stats, especially with the Patriots winning.
"There's going to be some looks that I get that I might not like or some plays I might not play. And there'll be some plays that I'll say, 'yeah, call that more. Or do a lot more of this,'" Wilfork said. "But that's football. You have to just take it as it comes. My main goal is to win. Right now we're 3-0 and I can't complain about that."

Start smoking in your teens and you can expect stained teeth, wrinkly skin and a one-in-two chance of dying early.
If you start smoking when you're in your teens, get ready for stained teeth, wrinkly skin and a one-in-two chance of dying early.
Nobody smokes their first fag thinking they'll be a smoker, but if you're experimenting it's easy to become hooked. Most adult smokers start in their teens, and half of them will be killed by their habit (on average, they'll pay nearly £2,000 a year for the privilege).
Right now, smoking means that you're becoming unfit, you're getting tiny wrinkles all round your mouth, and you're losing lots of cash. If your boyfriend smokes too, sex probably doesn't feel as good as it could: cigarettes affect his erections and your sensitivity.
Still puffing? Shame. As a smoker you're now looking older than your years. Your skin, which has been starved of oxygen, is grey and lined. Your teeth are stained and your hair is dull and smelly. If that's not enough, all the smoke toxins in your body have given you cellulite.
When you want to have kids, things will be trickier for you than for non-smokers: female smokers reduce their fertility and increase their chances of miscarriage, cervical cancer and complications during pregnancy and delivery. Smokers' babies are also more at risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
The length of time that you've smoked is important. If you've smoked 20 a day for 40 years, your risk of lung cancer is about eight times more than if you've smoked 40 a day for 20 years.
Women who smoke are also more likely to suffer from osteoporosis (brittle bones) than non-smokers, particularly after the menopause.

Critical Miss: An Appeal
Pages PREV 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
You get banned for offending people.
oh, I'm sorry, I guess that completely justifies everything in the webcomic.
What does it matter if another person does several things offensively, according to you logic, I could make a joke about gamers who swear being put into gas chambers and when people go after me for it say "you should've told that to hitler". This isn't so much of deliberatly being offensive (although that it is) it's hipocritical. You look at one side of the issue, attack it, knowing full well there is a good reason for it being there in the first place, and expect everyone to go along. Haven't we been trying to prevent the media from doing that to these things we call games? Haven't we been trying to prevent lines drawn from games to deviant behavior? This comic is offensive not only because of what it horribly parodies (even on it's own merits there is no end joke) but also because it destroys what we are working towards as an end goal, and drags down the image of the escapist as a whole. I know that you are better than this, you've shown that in the past, and I honestly can't figure out why you thought this would be funny.
Dear god! What horrible world do we live in where grown men can no lunger boff preteen girls?!
When people who have a problem with Nazi propaganda are given power, Nazi propaganda gets banned. Thats really all you can be sure of. Certainly i dont have a problem with weed in any inherent way, but i dont like people running around with swastika's. As for your other contradictory statement (pedophelia by medical definition would have to be girls UNDER the point of adolecence) I imagine it runs all across the boards. Their may well be nazi's who dont want people to have sex with young girls and boys. You really cant generalize "dislikes swastika" to "dislikes weed" to "dislikes hebephilia" to "dislikes pedophelia" all in one jump.
It's a flag with a black spider on it. *swoosh*
It is a nazi propaganda symbol to the minds of most people. A cross with its ends bent at right angles essentially. Nazi's bend them to the right. The symbol has other meanings that are much more benign in ancient religious context. All of them are currently banned but if you see one that is black on white on red with a right faceing it is almost certainly intended as representative of the Nazi party.

BRADFORD City is showing a bit of magic off the field as well as on it.
City-supporting magician Dynamo entertained shivering fans queuing in the cold for tickets at Valley Parade yesterday.
Some had waited from 1am for tickets for the two-legged Capital One Cup semi-final against Aston Villa.
A little bit of Bantams magic has already seen the Division Two side overcome Arsenal and Wigan to reach the final four and the club has its sights on a dream final.
Dynamo, whose real name is Steven Frayne, said he was enjoying the "buzz" but declined to use his conjuring skills to come up with a score prediction.
"I don't want anyone to think that the team winning has anything to do with my magic. I want Bradford to do it for themselves."
Fans queued for hours in bitter cold to get their hands on tickets and competition sponsor Capital One handed out free tea and bacon butties to the hundreds of loyal supporters.
Among them was Ian Jones, 64, who waited patiently for almost four hours.
"If we can get a good home result we might have half a chance," he said. "Aston Villa are there for the taking – they have conceded 12 in the last two games."
Helen Davids, 24, said cup runs were fantastic but she desperately wants City to get promotion.
As optimistic fans chanted "Wem-ber-lee", she said: "There is a real buzz about the club after an atrocious decade."

With news coming out that the Twolves have dealt away Wes Johnson in an effort to sign Andrei Kirilenko, I can't help but day dream about the Wolves picking up right where they left off pre-Rubio knee injury.
And after several moves to alter the roster over the summer, I wanted to take a look at what their rotation might look like. But because it's football season coming up, I'll run down the depth chart in true football fashion, by coming up with the Twolves 2-Deep to start the season.
1) Luke Ridnour (until Rubio is fully healthy, then Rubio)
2) JJ Barea (until Rubio is fully healthy, then JJ or Luke; whichever isn't traded by then)
Point Guard will be in flux to start the year because of Ricky Rubio recovery from his late season ligament tear, so we may end up seeing a move towards the trade deadline as Rubio gets back to full form. Until then, it's likely that Luke Ridnour will be named the starter with JJ Barea coming off the bench to help lead the second unit. It's also said that newly acquired Alexey Shved can play some point, but he'll be busy spelling Brandon Roy and his cartilage-free knees at the 2. Malcolm Lee also may see some minutes if injuries persist or if a trade gets made with either Barea or Ridnour.
1) Brandon Roy
2) Alexey Shved
This is where the Twolves will truly be starting from scratch. Brandon Roy and Alexey Shved are new additions as Wayne Ellington, Wes Johnson, and Martell Webster are out the door. Roy will probably start, with Shved getting very meaningful minutes to help Roy stay fresh for closing time (where he is going to be at his best). Both Barea and Ridnour played here a bit last year but mostly out of necessity.
1) Andrei Kirilenko
2) Chase Budinger/Derrick Williams
Kirilenko really changes the Wolves lineup here. Instead of guys who can sort of play offense but no defense (DWill, Martell, Wes), you'll get a guy who blocks a ton of shots and harasses the other team. It also forces Derrick Williams to battle Chase Budinger for minutes. Given that Adelman has already questioned Williams and praised Budinger, it could one of the toughest situations for a number 2 overall pick you could imagine. It's also said that Dante Cunningham can play some 3.
1) Kevin Love
2) Dante Cunningham/Derrick Williams
The main reason why Dante Cunningham will get any minutes (at the 3 or 4) will be because of his defense, which Love and Williams are not known for. Because Love plays 40ish minutes a game, his backup is really not that big of a deal. But if the Wolves play some small ball, you could see Williams, Cunningham or even Hummel at the 4 with Love at the 5.
1) Nikola Pekovic
2) Greg Stiemsma
Speaking of the 5, Pek essentially inked himself into the starting lineup for the next 5 years with his performance last season. He's one of the few guys on the roster who will absolutely beat you up and he now has a true backup in Stiemsma, instead of a few pretenders filling in while he got a breather or was injured (Love, Randolph, Darko, etc).
While the Wolves missed out on a few targets (Batum, Lee, Brewer, Hill), it's still much more likely that Adelman will finally have the lineup flexibility that he wanted when he started in Minny. Adding the Russian-Rubio (Shved), Brandon Roy, Chase Budinger, Greg Stiemsma, and Andrei Kirilenko should do that for you. If everyone can stay healthy, it should mean a playoff birth. But the real question is, does Adelman have room for a 5'11 3/4″ white dude with very raw skills and a ton of enthusiasm? I still haven't gotten any calls back.

Hey Kris!
Thanks for becoming a follower of my photoblog. Those things make me pathetically very happy! :)
I have a couple of sessions coming up that I am going to post on there (parent permitting!), and then I am going to have a drawing for a prize for anyone who becomes a follower of my blog!
Thanks again--
