Wrestling is an amateur sport, popular in high school, college and the Olympics, which consists of opponents of similar weight attempting to obtain control of each other and pinning the opposition to the ground.
This extremely athletic sport is not to be confused with "professional wrestling," which is staged entertainment.
Women wrestling
Traditionally, men have wrestled since the time of ancient Greece. When women participate in it, wrestling is a joke sport. However, with the proportionality test in the Department of Education regulations implementing Title IX, schools have a financial incentive to offer the sport to women, and it has been included in the Olympics and World Games since 2002. From 1994 to 2001, the number of female students who wrestle in high school has grown from 804 to over 7000. As of 2001, 22 colleges now sponsor varsity wrestling programs. Because the NCAA and NAIA do not sanction wrestling for women and will not conduct national championships, these schools have formed a separate national governing body, the Women's College Wrestling Association.[1] The WCWA sponsors competition using the same rules as Olympic freestyle wrestling and uses weight classes of: 101 lbs, 109 lbs, 116 lbs, 123 lbs, 130lbs, 136 lbs, 143 lbs, 155 lbs, 170 lbs, and 191 lbs.[1] When 20 college members of the NCAA send commitment letters proposing to sponsor varsity women's wrestling teams, wrestling can become an NCAA emerging sport.[2] However, the 22 members of WCWA are divided between the NCAA and the NAIA, so the sport does not qualify as an emerging sport in either organization. The continued spread of women's wrestling is hampered by the economic downturn which results in reduced athletic budgets and in a number of colleges dropping their intercollegiate wrestling programs for men.
Wrestling in the Olympics
The first recorded Olympic wrestling match occurred in the Olympics in 708 BC.[3] When the modern Olympics were revived, wrestling was included in the 1896 games. The sport was not a part of the 1900 games, but has been a part of the Summer Olympic program ever since. Starting with the 2004 games, women have participated in freestyle wrestling. At the 2012 London Olympics, 344 athletes competing in 11 medal wrestling events.[4]
Because of growing costs, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has been under pressure to reduce the number of events and the number of athletes in each summer game. The IOC has adopted a system where "core sports" would continue indefinitely in future Olympics, but "non-core" sports would be selected for inclusion on an Olympic game-by-game basis. Currently, wrestling is one of the 26 core sports. However, following the London Olympics, the IOC's Executive Committee conducted a study of the 26 core sports in terms of their success at the London Olympics as well as world-wide grassroots support. The study sought to trim one core sport so that starting with the 2020 Olympics, only 25 core sports would continue to make room for one non-core sport. On February 12, 2013, the IOC Executive Board voted to recommend that wrestling be dropped as a core sport. If approved by the full IOC, wrestling with have to compete with seven other non-core sports - baseball/softball, squash, karate, sport climbing, wakeboarding, wushu and roller sports - for a place in the 2020 Games.[4]
The international federation that governs wrestling (FILA) responded with a statement the same day:
FILA was greatly astonished by today's recommendation of the IOC Executive Board not to maintain wrestling among the 25 core sports for the 2020 Olympic Games. FILA will take all necessary measures to convince the IOC Executive Board and IOC members of the aberration of such decision against one of the founding sports of the ancient and modern Olympic Games.[5]
On February 15, FILA held an emergency meeting and its President, Mr. Raphaël Martinetti, asked for a vote of confidence. When only 50% of his Board voted to support him, he resigned as FILA President.[5] Although wrestlers will be able to continue to compete in the World Games, United States wrestlers have expressed grave disappointment at the possibility that they could be excluded from future Olympics.[6] Although wrestling includes both men and women in the Olympic Programme, radical feminists are concerned that it will be replaced by another sport that includes both genders. Instead, they advocate for the inclusion of netball, a women-only variation of basketball that was invented in Victorian England in response to basketball being too unladylike.

For that previous years, specialists possess stated which globe is actually that great results associated with worldwide heating. The primary reason for worldwide heating may be the growing quantity of car not just in the usa however in just about all areas of the planet. Research show which transport is the best factor in order to polluting of the environment. Actually, more than 1 / 2 of co2 monoxide air pollution in addition to 1 / 3 associated with nitrogen oxides originate from vehicles. Because the amount of vehicles for that previous many years hasn't rejected, we are able to anticipate contaminated atmosphere later on.
Why is Upward Polluting of the environment?
Whenever a automobile is actually run, refueled, produced as well as got rid of, harmful chemical substance tend to be launched towards the environment. Increasingly more of those chemical substances tend to be launched whenever automobile energy is actually prepared as well as dispersed. You will find 2 types of air pollution originating from cars. Main air pollution is actually contaminants which are launched straight to the actual environment whilst supplementary air pollution may be the byproduct from the chemical substance responses from the contaminants within the atmosphere. Because evidence which car impact polluting of the environment, the next chemical substances tend to be main pollutions which originates from vehicles.
Co2 monoxide is really a without color as well as dangerous gasoline that's the consequence of the actual burning up associated with fuel within cars. This can be a harmful gasoline simply because whenever inhaled with a individual, this particular obstructs the actual admittance associated with air towards the essential internal organs from the entire body such as the mind. At these times, your body manages to lose it's essential features as well as leads to the individual in order to pass away.
Green house gas cars would be the finest causes of contaminants within the environment such as co2 that trigger worldwide heating. Along with a lot of cars operating, it's not the shock the reason why we're sensation the results associated with worldwide caution.
Nitrogen gas aren't harmful within their personal correct however they may deteriorate the actual individuals entire body whenever inhaled. Through deterioration your body's protection, the individual will end up susceptible to additional illnesses and can have a problem battle illnesses such as chilly, impact yet others.
Sulfur dioxide whenever diesel-powered is actually burnt as well as prepared, this particular produces chemical substances within the atmosphere, such as sulfur dioxide. Sulfur dioxide is generally as good contaminants however impacts anyone who has preexisting respiratory system conditions for example asthma as well as coughing.
Specific issue is really a main element of smog as well as generally provides it's strong colour. Whenever calculated, they are absolutely no scaled-down towards the human being atmosphere as well as present much more threat. Since it is really little, this is often inhaled unintentionally and may obtain within the lung area. Apart from these specific issue produces nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide along with other harmful contaminants towards the environment.
They are just a few of the harmful gas which turn out to be contaminants within the atmosphere. Certainly, car emission may be the biggest supply of polluting of the environment as well as without having modifications in the current era we may end up being inhaling and exhaling a lot contaminated atmosphere soon.

Who said anything about the White Sox?
The White Sox's problem is that, in addition to being the 2nd most popular team in town, they play in a neighborhood that nobody wants to set foot in. Nobody is saying that it has to be one polar extreme or the other.
I didn't say the Cubs don't benefit from the neighborhood. I said that the neighborhood establishments rely on the Cubs FAR more than the Cubs rely on the neighborhood.
Mind you, I am not a proponent of a new stadium (nor am I necessarily opposed to the idea). I love the renovations and enjoy going out in that neighborhood. But to say that the Cubs need the neighborhood as much as the neighborhood needs them is just silly.
Look at areas like Lincoln Park and Wicker Park. Those are still hotspots of the city and neither have a baseball stadium there. The infrastructure of Wrigleyville has already been setup to support themselves if The Cubs ever left. The massive amounts of liquor licenses are still heavily consolidated there. Youve still got the Metro/Smart bar over there too. The nightlife would still be booming and Im sure Wrigley would still be used for events like concerts, football, soccer, hockey, etc... if landmark status prevents it from being demolished.

There is one reason, and only one reason, that neighborhood is viable. And it ain't the whiney neighbors or the overpriced bars.
Wrigleyville has become yuppie central and is littered with young people every weekend. Its a thing, and the booming nightlife has very little to do with Wrigley Field being there. I spent 2 years living in Wrigleyville, most of the year there arent Cubs games going on yet the neighborhood is still very vibrant.
I guess that depends on how you define survival.
Obviously, a few of the bigger establishments are popular enough that they'd hold up without the Cubs around, but there are many, many more that absolutely need the Cubs gameday traffic in order to be viable businesses.
Murphy's Bleachers would die. No doubt about it. I was a regular there when I lived there so I know their traffic is entirely based on The Cubs. Establishments near the corner of Clark and Addison would continue to thrive. Wrigleyville is an upscale safer neighborhood, just like Lincoln Park. People are still going to be very attracted to living in that area. Plus, youve still got a redline stop right there which is a big draw for many who rely on public transportation. Plus, boys town is right there and thats also a pretty big draw for a large subculture of people living in or near Chicago.
Where else in Chicago is there a bigger concentration of liquor licenses than Wrigleyville? If you tap it, they will come.
Ultimately what Im saying is, with or without The Cubs, Wrigleyville still has a lot going for it. For that reason, it wouldnt die.

Even if you just bring up moving the team as a negotiating ploy, how far do you go? Threaten a move to the suburbs to put a scare in the Wrigleyville neighborhood? Threaten a move to another city entirely to put a scare in Chicago politicians?

Former Strikeforce champion Jake Shields has signed with Paradigm MMA Management. Shields' father, who passed away last year, had served as his manager.
"I am extremely dedicated to my career, improving as a fighter and once again becoming world champion," said Shields, in a press release. "I feel that the support of Paradigm's team will allow me to best accomplish my personal and professional goals."
Shields is 27-6-2 and a former contender to the UFC welterweight title. He moved up to middleweight earlier this year, defeating Ed Herman. The result, however, was changed to a no-contest after Shields failed the post-fight drug test.
The press release quoted Paradigm president Audie Attar as saying, "(Shields) is poised to make a huge come back in the welterweight division," which could mean he is headed back to 170 pounds upon his return to action.

Evanston Outlaws say farewell to hurler Skyler Baldwin
Posted: Sunday, Jun 23rd, 2013
BY: Mark Madia, Herald Sports Editor

EVANSTON — The Evanston Outlaws have experienced a bit of a skid as of late. Production at the plate in their recent losses was about half the 10 hits managers believe will put Evanston in contention. Connection is being made, but even solidly-hit balls seem like they're going right into the opponents' gloves, according to coach Judd Kishpaugh. As previously reported, the team has been — and will now be even more — thin in its pitching rotation, with the loss of Skyler Baldwin.
The Outlaws' last win saw Baldwin on the mound, as the Outlaws picked up a 5-0 win over the Riverton Raiders to open the Knight Invite last Friday, June 14. Baldwin pitched a complete seven-inning game, allowing only two hits and no earned runs, while striking out 10.
From there, Evanston faced some quality teams, but management believes the team dropped one or two games the team never should have lost. The Outlaws came up short in four consecutive contests, watching their 7-6 seasonal mark drop to 7-10, and until they can bring along a couple of current Outlaws, their pitching rotation is comprised of Kade Lym and Ian Fisher.
Kishpaugh had words to the effect: "We'll do our best to get through June. It will be tough on us," noting the hitting woes could, in part, correlate with the Outlaws not getting their 200 to 300 swings/cuts in, per practice.
Baldwin was scheduled to depart for the Missionary Training Center in Salt Lake City this past Wednesday morning, June 19, continuing on to the Tulsa, Okla., area on July 3 to serve his church mission.
With camps for high school sports a part of the equation, team members were few for Tuesday night's practice. Prior to practice, those who were present gathered around Baldwin. The 2012 senior, who golfed for the Red Devils, is obviously held in high regard by his teammates in his sport of choice, baseball.
"Baseball is my love, my game," Baldwin told the Herald. A self-described "Cubs fan, through and through," big leaguers he's admired include Derek Jeter, "even though he's a Yankee," and the Cubs' own Alfonso Soriano, who the Outlaws hurler believes is better suited at second base than in the outfield.
Baldwin was ingrained in the Outlaws program. It seems to the coaching staff he was around much longer than the two years he actually played, but his impact on the team must have artificially increased his longevity in their minds.
"I decided to work, maybe not the best decision of my life, but I thought it was a good idea to make some money, and it was," Baldwin detailed, "but I really regretted not playing."
As a student of the game, aware of his natural aptitude on the diamond and how much he had progressed in two seasons, he can't help but speculate what that extra season may have awarded him.
"Who knows?" Baldwin ponders. "Maybe instead of Utah State, obtaining a scholarship, something like that."
Primarily used as a pitcher, Baldwin played shortstop and second base, as well as first base — "just because my arm was sore, but they wanted the bat," meaning even playing him out of position, to have the advantage of having him at the plate.
"Third base and a little outfield, but I'm not much of an outfielder — [I'm] too slow for that," Baldwin joked, his modesty in balance with his confidence. "My position of trade is pitcher."
Memorable moments? A play Baldwin won't soon forget?
"One of the craziest things that ever happened was when a ball booted off Baltazar's foot, against Fremont," Baldwin recollected. "It just happened to kick right toward me, and we were able to get the out with the runner on first."
He grades his own pitching and seems pleased and proud, not just of his improvement, but because he helped his team excel. He hopes more kids take the chance to play to baseball, continuing on through American Legion, convinced there's a great deal to gain through participating in his favorite sport, but so much more that is learned about life, about yourself, through baseball.
"And just being a part of the Outlaws' atmosphere is great," Baldwin reflected. "I wish everyone had a chance to experience the way it makes me feel, and I know my teammates feel it, too."
No matter what, it doesn't sound like Baldwin would trade his Outlaws experience for anything.
"It's been great just to come down, play ball and be...be me," he said.

The Great Earthquake
When The Great Earthquake struck New England, learned men blamed everything from God's wrath to an overabundance of lightning rods in Boston. Two hundred and twenty-five years later, geologists are at last discovering the true causes.
August/September 1980 | Volume 31, Issue 5
In 1749 Georges Leclerc, Comte de Buffon, of Paris had suggested an age of seventy-five thousand years for the earth, which he speculated had been created from solar matter after the collision of a comet and the sun. The long-standing assertion that the earth's surface had been created from the condensation of minerals suspended in the Mosaic flood would soon face an opposing view that subterranean fire shaped the earth's crust. Known as the Neptunists and the Vulcanists (or Plutonists), both schools were partly right.
Fire, and occasionally water, dominated the speculation about earthquake causes that arose in the colonies after the 1755 shocks, which produced the first attempts to probe such an event with scientific inquiry. Dr. Thomas Prince, who was pastor of Old South Church, acknowledged hypotheses by "the projecting Sort of Philosophers both ancient and modern" over "a central Concave of fire [or] a vast internal Abyss of Waters." Then he projected his own theory, adding the phenomenon of electricity, lately described by Benjamin Franklin, to his list of earthquake causes.
God, Dr. Prince explained, had created an earth "of very loose Contexture," in which existed numerous caverns filled with "Sulphurious, nitrous, fiery, mineral and other Substances such as those in the Clouds, which are the natural Causes of Thunder and Lightning." The underground collision of these substances meant an explosion and, hence, an earthquake.
But earthquakes formed merely "a Twentieth Part of our imminent danger," Prince announced. Citing Robert Boyle's law of the pressure of gases, he warned that the "terrible atmosphere" blanketing the earth presses the ground with a weight of 2,592 pounds per square foot. After a subterranean explosion, he said, vapors escape, leaving a vacuum. The menacingly heavy air around us, "this astonishing Weight, besides that of the Earth, immediately bares away everything before it into the Space below." Entire hills and cities had thus been pressed underground by the air.
Prince further refined his theory of electrical causes of earthquakes by suggesting that Boston had suffered worse shocks because of its abundance of lightning rods, then called iron points. The rods had been installed after 1751 at Benjamin Franklin's suggestion, in a city that had last been ravaged by fire as recently as 1747. Prince suggested that they conveyed extra electricity into the earth from the sky and thus imperiled Boston.
Enter an incredulous Harvard professor. "Philosophy, like everything else, has had its fashions," John Winthrop IV scoffed in response to Prince, "and the reigning mode of late has been to explain everything by ELECTRICITY.... Now, it seems, it is to be the cause of earthquakes." The earth, he noted, was barred by simple laws of physics from creating electricity. And as for Prince's lightning-rod theory, Winthrop answered, "I cannot believe that in the whole town of BOSTON, where so many iron points are erected, there is so much as one person, who is so weak, so ignorant, so foolish, or, to say all in one word, so atheistical, as ever to have entertained a single thought, that it is possible, by the help of a few yards of wire, to 'get out of the mighty hand of GOD.' "
Winthrop, Hollisian professor of mathematics and natural philosophy at Harvard, continued his public tiff with Prince, whom he often referred to as "the Rev. Divine," for several months. Colonists looked to the two of them for answers to the Cape Ann earthquake—which both men incorrectly believed to have come from the northwest. Winthrop, who had introduced Newton's fluxions, or calculus, to the United States and opened the nation's first experimental physics laboratory, was probably the most scholarly of colonists to contribute to the earthquake literature, if not the most prescient.
Flame and pent vapors, he believed, promoted earthquakes, a likelihood he supported by observing the abundance of tremors near volcanoes. Like Prince, he believed the quaking earth exhaled pent vapors, but, citing Newton, Winthrop suggested that the vapors might supply the atmosphere with "true, permanent air," a mysterious but revitalizing substance.
Winthrop's contribution to the imminent science of geology stems more from his careful, empirical descriptions and calculations of the Cape Ann earthquake events. By measuring effects, he carefully deduced the chronology and characteristics of the shock, applying physical maxims whenever he could. He documented the existence of both horizontal and vertical motion during a tremor, comparing the generation of earthquake "waves" to that of the vibrations of a struck musical chord, where an instrument's strings bend broadly at first and then vibrate increasingly rapidly in returning to their stationary positions.

Research near Mount St. Helens proceeded despite bureaucratic hurdles, limited funding and an extremely hazardous environment
Douglas Larson
Then there was the matter of shelter. For four years after the eruption, we conducted laboratory tasks—sample preparations, packaging and analyses—out in the open. We were exposed to blowing ash and searing heat in summer, drifting snow and bitter cold in winter and gale-force winds year-round. Helicopters whipped up great clouds of ash, which enveloped us as we huddled around delicate laboratory equipment, trying to keep precious water samples from being contaminated.
After I reported that these conditions posed a health hazard and compromised scientific precision and accuracy, the Corps authorized the construction of a field laboratory at Spirit Lake. A Sikorsky helicopter airlifted a small fiberglass Quonset hut to the south shore of the lake on June 14, 1984. About 4 by 2.5 meters, the building was equipped with storage shelves on one side and a laboratory bench on the other. Outside, we reinforced it with a 1.5-meter-high earthen berm, which we enclosed with a wall of roughly 600 sandbags. (Throughout the lab's existence, we filled and stacked sandbags. In time, I began asking all visitors to fill 10 sandbags each before boarding a helicopter to begin their trip away from Spirit Lake. I'd say: "No sandbags, no boarding pass." No one refused.)
The shelter greatly increased our safety and comfort, especially during winter when we could retreat to the lab's warm interior to avoid hypothermia. Also, boat gear, outboard motors, laboratory equipment, analytical supplies, propane stoves, survival suits, parachute flares, emergency rations and other essential materials could be left at the site, thus largely removing weight as a constraint on helicopter flights. As required by the U.S. Forest Service, which managed the Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument, the lab was painted with camouflage to be "inconspicuous." On that terrain, however, the laboratory was anything but. It was the only bit of color in an unrelieved expanse of vast grey mudflow and bleached, broken skeletons of tree trunks strewn across the lakeshore.
Helicopter transportation was essential to scientific research on blast-zone lakes and rivers, including Spirit Lake. The helicopters provided rapid, safe transport to and from scattered study sites, some of which were inaccessible by road vehicles. Many of the pilots had learned to fly while serving in the military during the Vietnam War and could execute unconventional operations that required innovation and daring. Milt Walker, a former U.S. Army helicopter pilot, once flew us to Spirit Lake during a snowstorm, then returned several hours later in near-zero visibility to take us home. Another veteran pilot regularly landed his jumbo Sikorsky helicopter on an island of loose avalanche debris in Spirit Lake, waiting for us to disembark while his craft perched precariously on the island's summit.
In addition, helicopters provided a quick and reliable means of escape if someone was hurt or if the volcano stirred. The importance of having a means of evacuation was made clear during the summer of 1983. While en route to a Spirit Lake sampling station aboard Traveler, a USGS scientist who was a member of our research team tried to open a reagent bottle containing a mixed solution of highly concentrated sodium hydroxide, sodium iodide and sodium azide. The bottle's cap suddenly blew off, spraying her face with caustic reagents. Blinded and screaming, she fell to the deck. Frantic, we scooped water from the lake and splashed it across her face, trying to flush the burning chemicals from her eyes and skin. I radioed a medical evacuation request to our helicopter pilot, who was heading to the airport at Longview, Washington, to refuel. When we reached the boat moorage, the helicopter was waiting with its rotor blades spinning, ready for immediate takeoff. The injured researcher and a fellow USGS scientist were flown to a hospital in Longview, about 65 air-kilometers away. Within minutes, she was in the hospital's emergency room undergoing treatment. She fully recovered from her burns.
In June 1984, we tried another approach to getting where we needed to be on the lake to collect our samples. I obtained a 5-meter-long Zodiac inflatable boat, which was much sturdier than the dinghies used in the initial Spirit Lakes studies. The new boat was also equipped with a harness that allowed a helicopter to lift it over the log raft into the lake's open-water area. Strong east winds regularly pushed the log raft against the shore where our field lab was located, making it impossible to launch our boat. After the boat was lowered into the lake and anchored, the helicopter returned to the lab and delivered us to the waiting boat. If, at day's end, the logs had not moved, the helicopter flew out to our position and lifted us back to the lab before retrieving the boat.
When the wind was blowing strongly and unpredictably, the log raft would often surround us and press in from all sides, threatening to crush both boat and crew. On one occasion, as we sat trapped amidst logs scraping ominously on the boat's rubber hull, I radioed our pilot and urgently requested that he extract us. Demonstrating considerable skill, he set one of the chopper's skids on the edge of the boat and held his craft steady as my two colleagues climbed aboard. Revving up the engine for takeoff, the pilot waved goodbye and instantly rose skyward, blasting me with a brief but tornado-like downburst of air. The helicopter returned within minutes, and while it hovered overhead, the pilot slowly deployed a cable, which I grabbed when it got within reach and attached to the boat's harness. He then dropped the helicopter close to the boat and motioned to me to climb aboard. I pulled myself into the helicopter and crouched in the door, looking down at the boat and directing the pilot as we ascended straight up. I signaled to him when the cable was taut. The boat rose suddenly from the log raft and swung beneath us as we returned to shore.

On my way to a DIY "ballistics" calculator.. sort of. :)
I always like trying new stuff in Excel, work or pleasure; anyway, tonight was a quiet night, so I dug in. Using Federal's basic information for the .308 Gold Medal Match, I set up a curve fit calculation, and now I can plug in target height, Observed target height in MILS, get a range, and the calculated hold-over. I thought it was pretty sweet. It's accurate plus/minus 1" out to 500.
Of course, I'll actually have to go out and shoot these ranges to get real numbers, but all in all, it was pretty satisfying to see this work (so well).

Winchester Ammo has a ballistics application on line that can be downloaded for use with the I phone.
I have seen a ballistics caculator from Nikon also. As you say Excel is your friend too
Have a nice day at the range NRA Life Member |

If you are currently being treated with any of the following medications, you should not use copper supplements without first talking to your health care provider.
Birth control medications and estrogen following menopause -- Birth control medications and estrogen replacement for post-menopausal women can increase blood levels of copper. Therefore, copper supplements are not appropriate and may be cause for concern in individuals taking either of these medications.
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) -- Copper binds to NSAIDs (such as ibuprofen and naproxen) and appears to enhance their anti-inflammatory activity.
Penicillamine -- Penicillamine (a medication used to treat Wilson's disease and rheumatoid arthritis) reduces copper levels that may be the intended use, as in the case of Wilson's disease.
Allopurinol -- Test tube studies suggest that allopurinol (Zyloprim), a medication used to treat gout, may reduce copper levels.
Cimetidine -- Animal studies show that cimetidine (Tagamet), a medication used to treat ulcers and gastric esophageal reflux disease (when acid from the stomach enters the esophagus and causes heartburn and indigestion), may elevate copper levels in the body leading to damage of the liver and other organs.
Nifedipine -- In a human study, a lower concentration of copper was found in red blood cells after use of nifedipine (Procardia or Adalat).
Zinc -- Several laboratory and human studies have found that high levels of supplemental zinc taken over extended periods of time may result in decreased copper absorption in the intestines and copper deficiency. However, some studies in humans suggest that high dietary zinc may not interfere with the actual tissue or plasma concentrations of copper. Ask your health care provider if you need zinc and copper supplementation.

Thread: Otocinclus Food
Otocinclus Food
At one time I had two otocinclus catfish. After about two and a half months they fell to some kind of fungal disease (that at the time I didn't know how to treat or identify).
I have had my five peppered cory cats for over a year and a half now, and they seem to be doing fine. I've added six White Cloud mountain minnows in addition about two weeks ago. They're doing fine as well.
I want to get back into owning some otos, so today I'm going to be purchasing five of the little guys. After reading around a bit on the internet, I've concluded that zucchini will be my best bet for feeding them. I was going to get a rubber lip pleco in addition, but thought that the pleco would get aggressive towards the smaller otos and fight them for the zucchini or cucumber, let alone the algae wafers.
I want to know if it's fine to skin and slice zucchini and freeze it in a large plastic bag. Will this affect the nutrients at all? I plan to take a slice or two out of the bag and blanch them in the microwave (to make it sink).
My pleco wouldn't touch the homemade carrot and cucumber gel I made for him, but when I had my first otos they'd go crazy for a thick slice of cucumber in the 10 gallon I kept them in, long ago...
In all, is freezing zucchini all that good for fish food? I assume so, but I have zero experience in this area, so I wouldn't know. Any comments? Suggestions?
0Don't blanch, don't peel just scrub. Freeze raw and weigh, that's all.
Alternatively, get some repashy super gre en.My 33 gallon/125 liter tank. My photography on flickr.
0I'm not sure how long term you need to keep it, but I am constantly surprised at how long zukes last in the fridge if they are wrapped in saran wrap really well. Wrap them as tight as you can, with no air bubbles, and they keep amazingly.
0I agree. Zucchini seems to last quite a while for me also just in the fridge. I do feed pieces to 3 tanks, however, so I go through it more quickly than if I just had one tank.

0I slice them up and keep them in a baggie in the fridge. When it's time to feed, I pop one in the tank on a clip. Easy peasy, and the freezer seems to moosh them a bit.

Towamencin Mennonite Church (Mennonite Church), located in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, a member of the Franconia Mennonite Conference. Jacob Godshalk, who served as the first bishop for the Mennonites of America from 1708, settled in the present Towamencin Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, in 1713 or earlier. By 1728 the first Towamencin Mennonite meetinghouse had been built. About 1804 this building burned to the ground. In 1805 a stone building was erected, replaced about sixty years later. The present meetinghouse, the fourth, was built in 1925, 50 x 74 feet. The Towamencin pulpit seems to have been supplied by the Skippack preachers until 1876, when Christian Allebach (1841-1917) was ordained to the ministry. In 1958 the minister was Ellis L. Mack, with a membership of 219.

To complement her red Oscar de la Renta dress, celebrity makeup artist Jorjee Douglas used tarte cosmetics to give Zooey Deschanel a "Brigitte Bardot and Twiggy inspired" 60s look with lots of lashes and red lips at the 2013 Golden Globes tonight. See a step-by-step breakdown of the look after the jump!
She prepped Zooey's skin the night before with tarte's pure maracuja oil to keep her skin soft and glowy. To even out her complexion and ensure her foundation lasted she applied BB tinted treatment primer in fair. Next, she blended tarte's maracuja miracle 12-hr foundation to add extra radiance to her complexion. To conceal any uneven skin she used tarte's maracuja creaseless concealer underneath her eyes. She added a pop of color with tarte's Amazonian clay 12-hour blush in frisky to the apples of her cheeks. For a touch of shimmer, she applied maracuja blush & glow brightening lumiziner and cheek tint in candlelight to the tops of her cheekbones and set her t-zone with a light dusting of Amazonian clay finishing powder.
For a strong and defined brow, she used a mixture of tarte's Amazonian clay waterproof brow pencil in taupe and medium brown. To make Zooey's blue eyes pop, she started by blending the bronze shadows from tarte's beauty & the box Amazonian clay eyeshadow quad in "in the buff" all over her lids. To create a cat-eye shape, she drew tarte's multiplEYE lash enhancing liquid liner over her top lashline, with a dip at the outer corner. Inspired by Twiggy's lashes, she painted on tiny lashes underneath her bottom lashes with the precise tip of multiplEYE lash enhancing liquid liner. She finished by applying two coats of lights, camera, lashes! 4-in-1 mascara to add major volume and drama to her lashes.
Jorjee patted tarte's glamazon pure performance 12-hour lipstick in bold over Zooey's lips with her fingers to create a light stain and then went over it with LipSurgence lip luster in delighted to add extra shine.

Today, Rep. Peter T. King (R-NY), Chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, issued the following statement on the Obama Administration's purchase of Thomson Prison in Illinois:
"After widespread and bipartisan opposition to President Obama's outrageous and dangerous plan to close the ultra-secure detention facility at Guantanamo Bay and import the terrorists to the U.S. Homeland for trial in civilian courts in New York City and elsewhere, I thought this issue was settled.
"Apparently not.
"In order to keep these terrorists out of the United States, Congress reflected the will of the American people by explicitly opposing the purchase of the Thomson Illinois prison, where the Obama Administration has sought to transfer the Guantanamo terrorists.
"Yet, in direct defiance of the will of the People, the Administration today announced that it will buy the Thomson prison for at least $165 million.
"Obama Administration officials today promised that Guantanamo terrorists will not be transferred to the Thomson prison, citing Congressional action prohibiting it. I have trouble believing Obama Administration promises.
"If the Obama Administration is willing to ignore Congress about the purchase of the Thomson prison, how are the American people expected to trust that the
Administration will not ignore Congress about the transfer of terrorists into it? I pledge to continue working to keep the Obama Administration from moving dangerous terrorists from Guantanamo Bay to the U.S. Homeland."

Steve Martin makes sharp, funny Bowl debut
Someone as humorous as Steve Martin really shouldn't be able to play banjo so well – it simply isn't fair to the rest of us. It's also unfair that he can write so smartly, has such fine taste in art and retains that impressive head of white hair, but let's stick to the subject at hand.
Wednesday night at the Hollywood Bowl, the four-time Grammy winner for both bluegrass and comedy made fine use of his talents, leading the Steep Canyon Rangers and singer Edie Brickell in a rousing hour that was musically engaging and side-splittingly funny in just the right measure.
When he was on his five-string, Martin played it straight – for the most part. He's a truly an accomplished banjoist, not, as he claimed, "a Hollywood star hitching a ride on the bluegrass gravy train." Instrumentals such as "The Crow" and "Dance at the Wedding" were given serious, sober readings, keeping the focus squarely on musicianship.
But for between-song patter, he brought out his sincerely insincere persona.
He told the crowd, which filled about three-quarters of the amphitheater, how honored he was to make his Hollywood Bowl debut and "perform for your cell phones." He mused about his electronic tuner, which he claimed also received email and HBO – and he got the biggest laugh of the night by admitting he couldn't get CBS because it was a "Time Warner tuner."
Martin managed to bring music and comedy together on both "Jubilation Day," a winking breakup song celebrating a relationship that deserved to end, and "Atheists Don't Have No Songs," a mock-gospel number (showcasing the Steep Canyon Rangers impressive harmonies) that lobbies for an organization that demands "the he is always lower-case."
The Rangers' instrumental prowess came to the fore on "Auden's Train," with Nicky Sanders contributing a wildly inventive violin solo that incorporated elements of the Beatles' "Norwegian Wood," the Who's "Baba O'Riley," the theme from The Simpsons and Khachaturian's "Sabre Dance."
Brickell, who collaborated with Martin on April's "Love Has Come for You" from Rounder Records, was showcased on four songs. Her slightly quizzical, hair's-breadth behind-the-beat drawl – it still carries the mussed erotic charge of "What I Am," her 1988 hit with the New Bohemians – was employed most impressively on the train song "Sarah Jane and the Iron Mountain," one of two such tunes on the set list, which Martin explained is one more than usually allowed at the Bowl yet still four less than required for bluegrass bands. She also nudged the music in a slightly more modern direction, helped along by the addition of a percussionist and electric guitar for her numbers.
Traditions treated less than traditionally was a theme throughout the evening. Opening act Madeleine Peyroux, for starters, applied old-school skills on modern pop songs. Her throaty, off-center phrasing can still occasionally veer too close to Billie Holiday, but she's become a fine interpreter of Leonard Cohen (via her most popular cover, "Dance Me to the End of Love," as well as "Bird on a Wire") and here gave a wonderful, bone-dry reading of Warren Zevon's "Desperados Under the Eaves."
New Orleans' Preservation Hall Jazz Band makes only the slightest nods to modernity; the most contemporary aspect about them might be sax player Clint Maedgen's jet-black goth haircut (he looks like he escaped from an episode of True Blood). Yet there was nothing fussy about their 45-minute set. They might not be the flashiest brass band to come out of the French Quarter, although Mark Braud's trumpet solo during "That's It," the title track of their new Sony Legacy album, brought the crowd to its feet. But they still run through a whole range of styles, from classic Dixieland to loping R&B to gospel.

Yesterday on the live events Apple unveiled its 5th generation phone named iPhone 4g S . It has got cool features and you can get it in apple website. But yesterday Apple also announced that it is selling iPhone 3GS with no more cost then 0.00$ with two years contract. It is the first time I guess.
Yaa and it is featuring new 16GB 4s with 99$ and 32GB with 199$ and 64GB with 299$.
Some says the reduced in price will help poor people to get access over iPhone as iPhone is no good with South asia. But this reduced price of 0.00$ will not have any significant effect in asia because we donot have much more telecom companies selling iPhone in contract.This 0.00$ is probably for selling its remaining stuffs.
And in the yesterday event unlike iPhone 5 it also didn't addressed the budget iPhone which was said to be made for developing countries.

When we protect the watersheds in which we all live, from the most inland neighborhood streets to the furthest edge of the sea, we protect our own well being.
Today, the greatest threats to our coastal waters and watersheds, and to all of us – both human and animal – that rely on the ocean for pleasure, income or sustenance, come from urban and stormwater runoff, plastic pollution, and the ever-increasing stresses to our marine environment from over-fishing and climate change.
Working together, we can protect and save one of our most precious, natural resources – with your help, we can heal the bay.

Independents dominate in Highlands and Islands
- 4 May 2012
- From the section Highlands & Islands
Independent councillors continue to dominate local authorities in the Highlands and Islands.
They retained their hold on the ruling administration of Western Isles Council - Comhairle nan Eilean Siar.
Twenty-one independents were voted in, seven SNP councillors and three from Labour.
Following a delay due to a recount, there are 35 independent, 22 SNP, 15 Lib Dem and eight Labour councillors in Highland.
The final result from Cromarty Firth has left the independents down one, the SNP gaining five, Liberal Democrats down six and Labour up two.
On the Western Isles, the SNP gained four and Labour were up one.
Independents had previously dominated the comhairle's administration.
Negotiations on forming a new Highland Council administration are expected to take several days.
Margaret Davidson, a Highland independent who has been elected for the fifth time, said the make up of the administration could change.
She added: "The folks who voted for me were very clear they did not want to vote for a party."
Among those losing their seats in Highland wards include Bob Wynd, a former provost of Inverness, Dingwall and Seaforth councillor Peter Cairns, fire board convener Richard Durham and former deputy SNP group leader Pauline Munro.
Former Highlands and Islands Liberal Democrat MSP, Jamie Stone, has been elected as one of the three councillors to represent Tain and Easter Ross.
'Valued councillors'
SNP group leader Drew Hendry said his party's strategy to field two candidates in many Highland wards was brave.
He said: "We have had the courage to put forward a number of candidates to make sure we can represent the Highlands properly.
"In many cases that has paid off, but unfortunately it has also meant we have lost one or two hard working and valued councillors.
"But they have been replaced by people who will work equally hard for their communities."
The turnout at polling stations in the Highlands was 41%, while the postal vote was 66%.
There was a 53.85% turnout at the last local authority election in 2007.
Before the election, Highland Council's administration was made up of independents, Labour and Liberal Democrats.
Councillors seeking re-election were not the only ones whose performances were being scrutinised - polling took place on the same day auditions for talent show guru Simon Cowell's X Factor were being held in Inverness.

BEAUMONT, Calif. — A growing wildfire chewed through a rugged Southern California mountain range on Thursday, damaging buildings, threatening as many as 600 homes and forcing some 1,500 people to flee.
A thousand firefighters, 13 helicopters and six air tankers battled the flames as they pushed eastward along the San Jacinto Mountains 90 miles east of Los Angeles, said Daniel Berlant, a spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.
The fire was estimated at 15 1/2 square miles early Thursday, growing roughly 6 square miles overnight, with 10% containment. "Unfortunately the size of this fire continues to take away any progress that we're making," Berlant said.
Fire officials estimated 15 structures burned, but could not say how many of them were houses. A civilian with what was described as body burns was flown to a hospital, Berlant said. Four firefighters suffered unspecified injuries.
Residents told of fast-moving flames that left little time to get out after the fire erupted at midafternoon Wednesday.
Lili Arroyo, 83, said she was rushing to pack belongings when firefighters arrived at her home, which was rebuilt after being destroyed in a 2006 wildfire. She left with only her pet cockatiel, Tootsie, in its cage and a bag of important papers.
"The smoke was so bad you couldn't see," she said. "There were embers and ash coming down all over the sky. The smoke was really thick. I was starting not to be able to breathe."
Evacuation orders covered the an RV resort called the Silent Valley Club, the rural communities of Poppet Flats, Twin Pines, Edna Valley and Vista Grande, portions of the city of Cabazon along Interstate 10 and a camping area known as Black Mountain.
A veteran of many evacuations, Dana Wright, 43, wiped away a tear as she entered a shelter at a Beaumont school and went with her family to watch TV news. She had no idea whether her Poppet Flats home of 11 years had survived. Friends said a nearby home had not.
"This is the closest I've ever heard the fire being near our home," she said.
She and her husband hoped to find a way back up into the mountains. "I just want to look to see if we have a house," she said.
Most of Southern California's severe wildfires are associated with Santa Ana winds caused by high pressure over the West that sends a clockwise flow of air rushing down into the region.
This week's fire, however, was being fanned by a counter-clockwise flow around a low pressure area over northwest California.
Berlant said there was concern that weather conditions could change Thursday and send the flames in a new direction.
U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., who had planned a meeting Thursday with state and federal fire officials on the California fire season, planned to tour the wildfire area later in the day.
It was the second major wildfire in the San Jacinto Mountains this summer. A blaze that erupted in mid-July spread over 43 square miles on peaks above Palm Springs, burned seven homes and forced 6,000 people out of Idyllwild and neighboring towns.
The latest fire also burned in the footprint of the notorious Esperanza Fire, a 2006, wind-driven inferno that overran a U.S. Forest Service engine crew. All five crew members died. A man was convicted of setting the fire and sentenced to death.
Associated Press writer John Antczak in Los Angeles contributed to this report.

Comment Re:Fragmentation (Score 1) 222
Far too frequently in the Android world that you refer to the choice boils down to this: You can either choose to continue running a version of Android that is outdated, or you can buy a new phone and repeat the process in a few months.
I paid $500 for a T-mobile Vibrant, one of Samsung's top-of-the-line Galaxy S models, in July. So we're just barely at the five month mark and it's now two full releases behind mainline Android. The situation is particularly frustrating because the newly released Nexus S, which Samsung also manufactures, is merely a variant of the Galaxy S models. It has exactly the same processor as the Vibrant, and identical hardware specifications aside from the front facing camera and NFC capabilities.
So what do you call it when two nearly identical phones are separated by two major releases of Android? You may not want to call it fragmentation, but in the real world we call it "ridiculous."

"If you marry him, I know you're just gonna take him for everything he's got and then drop him on one of our doorsteps!" My future husband's daughter-in-law Annie (not her real name) raised her voice in anger.
Seated by a window in a charming Greek restaurant, I felt the heat rise to the top of my head. I glanced around, grateful the restaurant hadn't yet filled. I was completely surprised by Annie's spiteful words, so I quickly prayed for guidance.
Remain quiet, God encouraged me. So I didn't say anything in response to Annie's accusation.
Annie's eyes flashed fire. "Your reaction isn't normal. I'm attacking you and you're not even fighting back."
"How would it help if I did?" I asked, as I thought of Jesus' example. Scripture tells us that Jesus "did not retaliate when he was insulted, nor threaten revenge when he suffered" (1 Peter 2:23).
Annie was right. Refusing to respond to hostility in kind is not a normal response. But it is Christlike. I swallowed hard and prayed for grace. How could I glorify God in this situation where the hostility was thick enough to slice?
Conflict Is Unavoidable
In our fallen world, we all face conflict. It simmers between spouses and erupts in family relationships. It festers in long-term friendships. It seethes in the workplace.
I'd grown to love Annie's father-in-law who, like me, was widowed. Richard and I began seeing each other about nine months after his wife's passing. Now two years after her mother-in-law's death, Annie was still hostile.
For days after her attack, I was angry. Over lunch with a few friends, I shared the experience and described my anger over Richard's kids.
My friend Sara challenged me, saying, "I won't feel good about your relationship until you love Richard's kids."
That was a stretch. My mind was so filled with conflict, it was difficult to imagine. I asked God, Is that what you want, Lord? How can I love someone who treats me with such contempt?
"Even thought it's hard, I think you're right where God wants you," my friend Cathy told me. "You've always wanted to please everyone. Now you can't, and this situation will stretch you to understand where your worth really lies. You need to recognize—but not own—their feelings."

build decent snyth not all same old story every year new design old same sounds like roland
15-Jul-13 06:08 AM
the only company who (almost) never leaves their synth owners behind is Kurzweil. you can play patches from the K2000 (1993) on the latest and greatest PC3K8 (2011) and have full editing over all the parameters. Korg, Yamaha, Roland and others should make a flexible architecture, and try sticking with it for a decade.

Clark followed up his recent album Iradelphic with an hour-and-a-half-long live "Workshop." And he's still not done with material for the album: there are four bonus tracks that he is releasing for free through Warp Records' website. The first of these is "As the Circle Closes," whose blissed-out two-note synth pattern dissipates into a quiet acoustic meditation. There's no word on when the other three tracks will drop; there are only mysterious question marks in the EP's track list. Keep an eye out for the release of these songs as Clark's week-long jaunt across North America progresses. Tour dates are below, followed by a stream of the new track.
Tour Dates:
6.2 Montreal, Quebec: Mutek
6.5 Los Angeles, CA: Dublab
6.6 Los Angeles, CA: Low End Theory

A second-half header has made history for Vahid Halilhodzic's side, who reach the knockout stage for the first time
An early header from Alexandr Kokorin gave Fabio Capello's men the initiative, but Islam Slimani struck the decisive blow in the second period as Igor Akinfeev failed to make contact with a cross into the box.
Famously eliminated at the finals in Spain 32 years ago when West Germany and Austria played out a mutually beneficial 1-0 scoreline to send the north African side out, Algeria put the record straight in Curitiba on Thursday.
Coming into the Group H clash, Algeria knew a draw would likely be enough to seal qualification - barring a heavy victory for South Korea over Belgium - whereas Russia required a win to advance.
That result looked to be on the cards when Fabio Capello's men went in front as early as the sixth minute, as Aleksandr Kokorin headed home Dmitri Kombarov's pin-point delivery.
Russia looked comfortable with their advantage until the hour mark, when Igor Akinfeev - who made a horrible mistake in conceding during the 1-1 draw with South Korea - failed to make a connection with Yacine Brahimi's set-piece delivery and Islam Slimani converted from six yards.
Having qualified in second place behind Belgium - who beat South Korea 1-0 - Algeria will now take on Germany in Porto Alegre on Monday in the last 16.
Both sides made one change from their previous outing, Essaid Belkalem replacing Madjid Bougherra for Algeria while Capello called up Aleksandr Kerzhakov in place of Maxim Kanunnikov.
Kokorin, whose place in the starting XI had been the subject of discussion in the build-up to the game, gave Russia a dream start when he rose to head Kombarov's perfect left-wing cross into the top corner.
Russia continued to have the better of the play and Oleg Shatov went close in the 26th minute with a swerving drive from distance that drifted narrowly wide of the right-hand post.
Algeria tested Akinfeev for the first time in the 30th minute, the goalkeeper flying high to his left to tip Slimani's header over the crossbar.
Slimani tried his luck with another header two minutes before the interval, but this time his effort lacked power and was comfortably held by Akinfeev.
Aleksandr Samedov went close to doubling Russia's tally shortly after the resumption, but Rais M'Bolhi raced from his line to deny the midfielder.
That save proved crucial as, on the hour-mark, Akinfeev came to palm away Brahimi's free-kick but was beaten to the ball by Slimani, who nodded into an empty net.
Kerzhakov tested M'Bolhi 10 minutes later as Russia pressed to regain the lead, but the keeper got down well to his right to smother the well-struck shot.
Although Russia saw a lot of the ball in the final stages, they were unable to breakdown a stubborn defensive line as Algeria celebrated a landmark achievement.

UP ministers booked for kidnapping
Panchayat leader was abducted from Bijnore
Moolchand Chauhan and Manoj Paras — both of them ministers of state from UP — have been named as accused in a case of kidnapping of a panchayat leader from Bijnore, inspector general (law and order) Ram Singh Meena said.
Chauhan's son Amit Chauhan, Yashvir Singh and Rashid Hussain have also been named accused in the case lodged against 23 others at a police station in Pauri district on January 18, he said.
They have been charged with kidnapping a panchayat leader from Bijnore and 27 others from a resort at Laxman Jhula in Rishikesh, the official said, adding the charges against the accused are being probed.
According to the report lodged in this connection, the accused allegedly barged into panchayat leader Pawan Kumar's room at the resort near Laxman Jhula on the night of January 17 and assaulted him.
FIR lodged
They kidnapped him and took him to an unknown destination, Laxman Jhula police station SHO D S Rawat said, quoting the FIR lodged by Pawan Kumar's son Rohit.
While the exact motive behind the kidnapping of the panchayat leader is yet to be ascertained, police suspect that he was abducted in view of Bijnore zila panchayat election on Monday.
A police team has been sent to Bijnore to find out whether those allegedly kidnapped by the two UP ministers and their associates turn up to vote in the polls or not, he said, adding this would determine the course of further investigation into the case.

Press Release
Amidst Surging Demand For Mobile Applications, Rasmussen College Launches Degree Program To Prepare Future Developers
Rasmussen College School of Technology and Design to offer degree with specialized curriculum in mobile applications, an industry in which Apple alone garnered $1.78 billion in 2010
March 4, 2011

Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
MINNEAPOLIS (March 1, 2011) –As the market for mobile applications surges globally, Rasmussen College, a leading educator in high demand career fields, is announcing the launch of two new programs within its School of Technology and Design that feature specialized curriculum in mobile application design and programming—an Associate's degree in Software Application Development and a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science.
According to a recent article by CNET News, Apple alone garnered $1.78 billion in app sales in 2010, and the global market for mobile application sales is forecasted to grow another 81.5 percent in 2011, totaling almost $4 billion in sales. Plus, the Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a 34 percent growth in jobs for Computer Software Application Engineers through 2018.
"The technology industry is continually evolving, and mobile apps are going to dominate the industry over the next several years," Director of the Rasmussen College School of Technology and Design Hap Aziz said. "These new degree programs at Rasmussen College will prepare students to lead this emerging technology trend and gain the skills they need to build successful mobile applications for the most used platforms, including the Android and iOS (iPhone, iPad, etc)."
The Associate's degree in Software Application Development, which will initially be offered at Rasmussen College campus locations in Florida and Minnesota—although we expect to be able to expand these programs to other campuses in the near future—will prepare students for entry level positions in software development. Students will take courses in software design, and programming, develop software applications especially for mobile devices, and complete a working mobile application as a part of their graduate portfolio. After students earn their Associate's degree, they can transition smoothly into the Bachelor's degree in Computer Science should they want to continue their study of computer software, systems and applications.
In the Computer Science Bachelor's program, students can use their love of computer systems to advance your career in software engineering. Students can experience an industry-leading curriculum that includes modern object-oriented programming languages, such as Java and C++, taught in an integrated development environment (IDE) that facilitates advanced programming techniques and software management. Students will study algorithm analysis, and applied math in designing computer systems and discrete structures, and develop applications for the web and mobile devices.
The first class of students in the two new programs is scheduled to start in April 2011. For additional information about the Rasmussen College School of Technology and Design, visit http://www.rasmussen.edu/degrees/technology-design.
Rasmussen College is a regionally accredited private college and Public Benefit Corporation that is dedicated to changing lives through high-demand educational programs and public service. Rasmussen College offers Certificate and Diploma programs through Associate's and Bachelor's degrees online and across its 24 Midwest and Florida campuses in a supportive, student-centered and career-focused environment.

Dream Job
What makes one complete
Although I am fairly new at this whole adult life, I must say that we, as a people, rush around for nothing. We are in a hurry to go to school, in a hurry to get out. In a hurry to find a job, in a hurry to retire. But the one question that I had to ask myself was: What makes me complete? Of course, the well-being of my family: mentally, spiritually, and physically. But, all of those must be joined and thought about carefully in order to truly answer what makes you whole. I personally say that having a career that allows me to be independent is very important to me. I want to be able to be involved in my children's lives without worrying that I will lose my job or inconveince someone else. I want stability and an atmosphere that I can share with women similar to me. Mothers and wives who love God and their families and want to prosper in life. I want to surround myself with people just like me and learn new things. I want friends in the work place. I want to be ble to share recepies, talk about what little "Johnny" or little "Susie" did that was just so cute. I want relationship. Some people want to be their own boss. Some want to sit back and just do what they are told. Some don't want families and wouldn't mind working long hours. Some people want to save lives. I think that is wonderful! But, what I think most is I want a doctor who LOVES his job and a cook who LOVES to make WONDERFUL meals to please me and my family. I want and accountant that breathes taxes so mine will be accurate. It is so important to love what you do and do what you love. In my book, that is the key to success and the key to being amazing at what you do. You have to have a heart for what you do everyday, all day!GOD bless and I hope each of you finds your calling.
Go for your dreams
There is always some something that always hinders your decision to go for your dreams. But it is not until you go for that something, where you find true happiness.
