Mune's First Olympic Lifting Meet is a Done Deal
Mune's final snatch, good for 40 kg (88 lbs)
This past Sunday, Mune competed in her first ever Olympic Weightlifting meet, and it took place right here at CFO.
She did great! She hit all three snatches and all three clean-and-jerks, going six-for-six (always a great goal to achieve in a first meet). She ended up with a 40 kg snatch and a 55 kg clean-and-jerk, good for a 95 kg total.
You can see her final snatch attempt in the video above. We've posted her final clean-and-jerk attempt on our FB page.
Rumor has it that Aisha is going to joining Mune in the next Olympic Weightlifting meet they do. It would be great if we could get some more of you to compete with them! We'll post details on the next meet right here on the blog, so stay tuned.

Ask a Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Hello my name is ***** ***** I will help you with this.
On what basis is he refusing, or is he just ignoring you please?
both I have tried several time to no avail and I am living far away from Manchester. I had a friend who checked that the company still operate and are still in business the website cost me £1900 in 2005
Ok. What you need to do is formally write and ask for the website/code within 14 days or say you will go to Court.
If they refuse then you can issue proceedings in the county Court for 'delivery up' of the website and code
You need to complete form N1
The Court will send a copy to the other side and they can file a defence.
The matter will then be set down and a Judge will decide whether to make an order.
If the Judge makes an order for delivery up and the other side refuses it is contempt of Court and they could be warned, fined or sent to prison
Can I clarify anything for you about this today please?
I want to sue the company for the return of the website or the fees paid to have the website. there is a contract and their are in breach of that contract. I have done that I have given them time more that 14 days and told them that I was going to court. still no response. I do not have the financial mean to go pay for court fees
You may be entitled to fee remission depending on your circumstances.

If this happens what do you think it's going to cover? Given Telltale's style I don't think it will be an actual adaption. My best guesses are a side story for the War of Five Kings, something with Dunk and Egg, or set during one of the historic wars (my guess is NOT Robert's Rebellion because they can't answer the question everyone wants answered). I could possible see them doing an extension of the thing they did with 400 days with each chapter featuring a different lead.
Well, it's not a rumor, so change the title of the thread. Also, the game is being based on the HBO adaptation of the books.

Stupid law* too, but at least the comparison isn't as facile as the one between gay marriage and murder.Again, the point Scalia is making is not to compare them to draw any kind of similarities between the two. It's the opposite. Scalia's point is that the Lawrence theory is so broad that it affects the underpinnings of completely unrelated laws, like those relating to murder.Seems to me there's an obvious difference between laws that restrict public behavior with regard to community norms (prohibitions against nudity, for example) that affect others and laws that restrict contracts between two consenting adults. Of course there's a difference. But it doesn't matter, under the Lawrence analysis, which rejected the idea that community norms and morals could serve as a basis for regulation altogether. Plus, the Court has never held that the police power of the state only extends to things that 'affect others'. We might reach a consensus that that is a wise and beneficial place to stop regulating - but that is a policy decision, not an inherent limit on the legislative power. The state is perfectly free to impose regulations to keep you from harming yourself, even if it doesn't hurt anyone else, if it would like to.Albaby

Newspaper article The Christian Science Monitor
Mexican Trucks to Ply US Highways? Obama Is Ready to Roll
Article excerpt
President Obama on Thursday laid out a plan to allow trucks from Mexico to carry goods into America. Concern about safety of Mexican trucks have nixed such transport for decades.
Mexican trucks may soon be rolling along US highways - especially along the US-Mexico border - if a deal President Obama announced Thursday to resolve a long-standing dispute fares better than previous proposals.
With Mexican President Felipe Calderon at his side at the White House, Mr. Obama announced the proposed solution to a standoff that has pitted US truckers against business interests since before the North American Free Trade Agreement came into effect in 1994. Under NAFTA, the border was to be opened to crossborder trucking, but concerns about the safety of Mexican trucks blocked the provision's implementation.
Under the deal, which still faces congressional and local scrutiny, the US would allow in Mexican trucks that comply with stringent safety standards. In return, Mexico would lift tariffs it imposed on US goods in retaliation for flouting the NAFTA provision. The Mexican trucks would carry recorders for verifying that they transported crossborder shipments and did not act as domestic transporters on the US side.
The trucking deal came during an Obama-Calderon meeting that was largely about atmospherics - essentially turning down the heat on a bilateral relationship that had reached the boiling point in recent weeks.
Mr. Calderon was irritated to the point of public steam-letting over a series of US diplomatic cables released by WikiLeaks that showed US officials - including US Ambassador Carlos Pascual - questioning aspects of Calderon's five-year-old war on Mexico's powerful drug cartels. The cables were heavy on critiques of Mexican corruption and poor coordination among the country's security forces, and light on accolades for Calderon. …

The word "present" is a verb, a noun and an adjective. To present /pr?ˋz?nt/ something is to make a gift of it; as a noun, present /ˋpr?znt/ means the object given. The verb can also be used to mean "to make available," or "to make readily accessible," as in, to present a play or a movie, or even, when something becomes apparent, like a problem or an idea can present itself. As an adjective, present /ˋpr?znt/ means to exist in a given place at a given time, so, "there are three people present in the room," or, "present company excluded," at such times as you want to absolve a person or persons present from blame or involvement.
Sometimes a scene presents itself: a gift for the photographer, unintentionally given, but gratefully received. The photographer does not seek it out, it is just there. It is present.
Here, in a small, unassuming restaurant and to my right, a scene of red lanterns among the greenery of two trees, seen through frosted glass, presented itself. It's a simple composition with a limited number of colors. The pink lotus in the bottom left corner initiates a diagonal moving up and to the right, taking in the greens and reds and the blacks of the calligraphy.
(Paul Cooper, Taipei Times)
Present一字,可作動詞、名詞,也可作形容詞。To present 某物指的是把它當禮物送人;作名詞時,present是禮物。作為動詞,它意指「使其可被利用」或「使其可被獲取」,例如上演一齣戲或電影(to present a play or movie),甚或可指某事物變得明顯,例如一個問題或想法的浮現(a problem or idea presents itself)。作形容詞用時,present指在某個特定的時間於某處在場,例如可說「房裡有三個人在」(there are three people present in the room),或「不包括在場的人」(present company excluded),後者可用於使某人免責或不受牽連。

-----'When these prodigies
Do so conjointly meet, let not men say,
These are their reasons; they are natural;
For I believe they are portentous things.'
WHEN Adeline appeared at breakfast, her harrassed and languid countenance struck Madame La Motte, who inquired if she was ill; Adeline, forcing a smile upon her features, said she had not rested well, for that she had had very disturbed dreams: she was about to describe them, but a strong and involuntary impulse prevented her. At the same time, La Motte ridiculed her concern so unmercifully, that she was almost ashamed to have mentioned it, and tried to overcome the remembrance of its cause.
After breakfast, she endeavoured to employ her thoughts by conversing with Madame La Motte; but they were really engaged by the incidents of the last two days; the circumstance of her dreams, and her conjectures concerning the information to be communicated to her by Theodore. They had thus sat for some time, when a sound of voices arose from the great gate of the abbey; and, on going to the casement, Adeline saw the Marquis and his attendants on the lawn below. The portal of the abbey concealed several people from her view, and among these it was possible might be Theodore, who had not yet appeared: she continued to look for him with great anxiety, till the Marquis entered the hall with La Motte, and some other persons, soon after which Madame went to receive him, and Adeline retired to her own apartment.
A message from La Motte, however, soon called her to join the party, where she vainly hoped to find Theodore. The

Reviewed by Marie from Canada on Tuesday, December 24, 2013These socks were purchased as a Christmas gift for my husband. He has bad circulation in his feet and has been wearing cotton socks to bed. I am hoping Ice Wear Ankle Socks with Angora Wool will be better for him. As this is the 24th of Dec., he has not received his gift -- tomorrow morning on Christmas day. If he like these socks I will purchase more for him.
One concern I have is the charge for shipping to Canada and then when received here I had to pay an additional fee -- the cost for the 3 pairs of socks is approx. $100 U.S. This is too much where other vendors have free shipping to Canada. If I want additional socks, I will have to rethink paying so much for them or I will try another vendor that doesn't charge this horrendous fee.
Reviewed by CountryGirl from California on Thursday, December 12, 2013These socks come in two absolutely different types of yarn - one that's mostly wool and angora, and the other that's rayon, nylon, rubber, etc. The first one was great. The second one is OK - I ordered a couple more pairs second time in same color expecting same wool/angora but received different quality socks.

"I would really like these socks but I'm not going to order something with such drastic spec. differences. It says it may be 40 % wool & 30 % angora OR 13% wool & 11% angora. I've stayed away from anything that had the 'or'. However, I just found one that specified certain colors for the 'or'. I suggest you do that for all if it's possible. Is there a way to guarantee I receive the socks with the higher wool count on these particular socks? Thank you."

PHILIP KRAMER and KATHLEEN KRAMER Plaintiffs
RAYMOND CORPORATION, Defendant
The opinion of the court was delivered by: LOUIS H. POLLAK
On September 2, 1993, I ruled, inter alia, that the defendant Raymond Corporation was precluded from introducing evidence or otherwise suggesting that Philip Kramer's conduct was the cause of the forklift accident that resulted in his injuries. I ordered the parties to submit supplemental briefing on the issue of whether the defendant may introduce evidence that Kramer's conduct in placing his foot outside the forklift's operator compartment was the cause of his injuries. The defendant has submitted a supplemental brief in which it argues that (1) it is entitled to introduce evidence that Kramer's conduct -- specifically, placing his foot outside the operator's compartment and failing to look in the direction of travel -- was the proximate cause of his injuries; (2) Kramer's conduct is admissible as evidence of assumption of risk; (3) Kramer's conduct is admissible as evidence of misuse; and (4) Kramer's conduct is admissible as evidence of highly reckless behavior. The plaintiff has filed a reply. For the reasons given below, I find none of the defendant's arguments compelling.
I. Kramer's conduct as evidence of proximate causation
In Webb v. Zern, 422 Pa. 424, 220 A.2d 853 (Pa. 1966), the Pennsylvania Supreme Court adopted section 402A of the Restatement (Second) of Torts as the law of Pennsylvania in products liability actions. That section imposes liability upon the seller of a defective product that causes injury to the user or consumers. Since that decision, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court has refused to allow a defendant to introduce evidence of the plaintiff's negligence to defeat a claim under section 402A. In McCown v. International Harvester Co., 463 Pa. 13, 342 A.2d 381 (Pa. 1975), the court held that a plaintiff's contributory negligence could not be considered either to reduce the plaintiff's recovery or as a defense to liability. The court stressed that "the law should not require . . . inspection or caution when it has accepted as reasonable the consumer's anticipation of safety." Id. at 382.
The Pennsylvania Superior Court has carved out an exception to the Supreme Court's rule. In Foley v. Clark Equipment Co., 361 Pa. Super. 599, 523 A.2d 379 (Pa. Super. Ct. 1987), the plaintiff, who was struck by a forklift when the forklift driver failed to notice him, sued the forklift manufacturer to recover for injuries sustained in the accident. The plaintiff alleged that the forklift was defectively designed because it did not include a device to alert pedestrians of its presence and because its frontal carriage obstructed the driver's view. The trial court excluded evidence that suggested that both the plaintiff and the driver had paid inadequate attention and that their neglect, rather than the design defect, had caused the accident. The Superior Court reversed, holding that although contributory negligence was not an affirmative defense, evidence of "negligent . . . conduct is admissible where it is relevant to establish causation." Id. at 393.
The Third Circuit in Dillinger v. Caterpillar, Inc., 959 F.2d 430 (3d Cir. 1992) opined that "Foley does not accurately reflect the approach the Pennsylvania Supreme Court would follow in a strict liability proceeding." Id. at 443. The court explained that "there is no meaningful way to reconcile the view that a plaintiff's negligence of the type involved in Foley should be admitted to undercut causation with the Supreme Court's prohibition of the introduction of a plaintiff's negligence to defeat liability." Id. at 443.
In Dillinger, the plaintiff alleged that he was injured when a component of the truck he was driving failed. The defendant introduced evidence that the plaintiff could have avoided the accident by applying the emergency brake. In addition to rejecting Foley as incompatible with Pennsylvania Supreme Court precedent, the Third Circuit also noted that the plaintiff's conduct in Foley had set the accident in motion, whereas in Dillinger the plaintiff's conduct was merely insufficient to stop the accident set in motion by the design defect.
What the Third Circuit said about Foley in Dillinger was arguably dictum,
but it seems to me persuasive dictum. In my judgment, the defendant's argument that Kramer's conduct should be admitted as evidence that his conduct rather than the forklift defect was the proximate cause of his injuries is irreconcilable with the governing Pennsylvania Supreme Court precedent. "Proximate cause" is not a logical proposition but a legal conclusion about when a party is to be held responsible for a loss. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has already drawn that conclusion by establishing, on the one hand, that contributory negligence is not a defense to liability, see McCown, and, on the other hand, that a plaintiff's assumption of risk, see Berkebile v. Brantly Helicopter Corp., 462 Pa. 83, 337 A.2d 893, 901 (Pa. 1975), or misuse of a product, see Sherk v. Daisy-Heddon, 498 Pa. 594, 450 A.2d 615, 618 (1982), is a defense to liability. Thus, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court has already indicated the instances in which it wants to assign responsibility to the plaintiff in a strict liability action -- when the plaintiff has assumed the risk, misused the product, and presumably when the plaintiff has been highly reckless.
Were evidence of a plaintiff's conduct always admissible to establish that the plaintiff's conduct was the proximate cause of his injuries, the defenses of misuse and assumption of risk established by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court would be superfluous. Accordingly, except in situations of arguable misuse or assumption of risk, evidence of a plaintiff's conduct is inadmissible.
II. Kramer's conduct as evidence of assumption of the risk
The Pennsylvania courts have consistently held that a plaintiff's assumption of the risk is a defense to strict products liability. See Berkebile v. Brantly Helicopter Corp., 462 Pa. 83, 337 A.2d 893, 901 (Pa. 1975). Under this theory, the defendant has "the burden of showing the subjective awareness of the defect by the injured party." Ellis v. Chicago Bridge & Iron Co., 376 Pa. Super. 220, 545 A.2d 906, 915 n.17 (Pa. Super. Ct. 1988). The defendant has not argued that Kramer was aware of a defect in the forklift -- that the forklift's failure to contain a guard on the operator's compartment made the forklift dangerous. Accordingly, the defendant has not asserted a claim of assumption of the risk.
III. Kramer's conduct as evidence of misuse
The Pennsylvania courts also have allowed a defendant to introduce evidence to establish that the plaintiff misused the product in order to defeat a products liability claim. See Sherk v. Daisy-Heddon, 498 Pa. 594, 450 A.2d 615, 618 (Pa. 1982). The Sherk court explained: "'there appears to be no reason to doubt that strict liability has made no change in the rule, well settled in the negligence cases, that the seller of the product is not to be held liable when the consumer makes an abnormal use of it.'" Id., quoting Prosser, The Fall of the Citadel, 50 Minn. L. Rev. 791, 824 (1966) (emphasis added). Although the defendant argues that the plaintiff's failure to look in the direction of travel and to keep his foot inside the operator's compartment -- both in contravention of written warnings -- constituted misuse, I do not believe that such conduct can be described as an "abnormal use," particularly in light of the emergency situation Kramer faced at the time he acted contrary to the warnings.
IV. Kramer's conduct as evidence of his highly reckless behavior
In Gottfried v. American Can Co., 339 Pa. Super. 403, 489 A.2d 222 (Pa. Super. Ct. 1985), the court observed that the "issue of causation is raised when the plaintiff's action is so reckless that the plaintiff would have been injured despite the curing of any alleged defect, or is so extraordinary and unforeseeable as to constitute a superseding cause." Id. at 225. For substantially the reasons given above, I see no basis for concluding that Kramer's failure to heed the written warnings that he was not to put his foot outside the operator's compartment ...

Chinese regulators step in to calm markets as Asian shares retreat again
Asian shares retreated in choppy trade on Tuesday, led by Chinese stocks, whose early rebound fizzled out as investors remained unconvinced by Beijing's moves to restore market confidence following a disastrous start to the new year.
Prospects were brighter for European shares, however, as financial spreadbetters predicted Britain's FTSE 100, Germany's DAX and France's CAC 40 will all open about 1pc higher.
E-Mini futures for the US S&P 500 ESc1 also hinted at stabilization with a rise of 0.2pc.
After plunging almost 7pc on Monday, the CSI300 index of the largest listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen rose 0.3pc, to 3,478.78, while the Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.3pc, to 3,287.71 points.
China moved to shore up shaky sentiment on Tuesday, a day after its stock indexes and yuan currency tumbled, rattling markets worldwide, but analysts warned investors to brace for more wild price swings, and the afternoon session highlighted the challenges Beijing faces.
Stocks fell more than 2pc in early trade, prompting fears that exchanges were set for a second day of panic selling after Monday's dive set off a new "circuit breaker" mechanism, suspending trade nation-wide.
But stocks soon moved back into positive territory thanks to a mixture of policy intervention and hard cash.
Signs of steadying in mainland markets also soothed jangled nerves in Hong Kong, where the Hang Seng index was little changed after a 2.7pc drop on Monday.
China's central bank injected a massive $20bn in cash through open market operations in the morning, and forex traders said it also intervened to stabilise the sliding yuan, which some blamed for aggravating Monday's slump.
For its part, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) said it was considering more restrictions on share sales by major shareholders, a major concern for small investors.
A lockup on an estimated 1.2tn worth of shares held by major institutions, imposed as a stability measure during last summer's market crash, is set to expire next Monday.
The CSRC said it would guide major shareholders and senior executives to reduce shares through block trades and negotiated transfers, which it said would enable an "orderly exit" of emergency measures.
Major Chinese brokerages and asset management firms spent vast sums to buy up shares during the crash in a state-coordinated rescue that Goldman Sachs estimated at the time to have cost around $138bn.
The CSRC also said it would further improve the circuit breaker mechanism after some analysts blamed the tool for inadvertently fueling the sell-off.
Investors across the rest of Asia hoped for the best and nudged Japan's Nikkei up a slight 0.1pc, following Monday's 3.1pc dive.
MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan recouped early losses to be all but flat. E-Mini futures for the US S&P 500 ESc1 also hinted at stabilization and were last up 0.2pc.
An uneasy peace settled after the People's Bank of China injected a generous slug of liquidity into domestic markets to keep borrowing costs down.
The central bank also set the value of its yuan currency a little firmer than many had expected, countering concerns China was seeking an aggressive devaluation to aid exports.
China's securities regulator said it was studying rules to regulate share sales by major holders and senior executives in listed companies.
That might indirectly address concerns that the imminent end of a 6-month lockup on share sales by major institutional investors, or sale next Monday, would result in a massive institutional evacuation from stocks.
Yet the underlying problems had not gone away.
Surveys of manufacturers across the globe out on Monday had found activity anemic at best, with China and the United states both surprising on the downside.
That was one reason both the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq suffered their worst starts to a year since 2001.
"The price action reminds investors that the world is more connected than ever; volatility is likely here to stay, and liquidity may suffer if investor uncertainty worsens," analysts at Citi said in a note.
"Global growth and geopolitical stability remain the main sources of concern."
Policymakers seemed to share the general sense of unease.
A South Korean finance ministry official on Tuesday said the government will take action to stabilize markets if needed.
Sweden on Monday gave its central bank chief formal powers to act immediately to weaken the crown and help push up inflation, a radical step among developed world institutions.
The European Central Bank was under pressure to do yet more after German inflation proved surprisingly weak in December, pushing down bond yields and slugging the euro.

Discussion in 'Therapy and Medication' started by Leiaha, Dec 20, 2008.
Just wondered if anyone knew, does MIND UK run an outreach service?
It depends on your area as to what they offer. You could try contacting them and asking? I've heard in some areas they
offer counselling..
i agree, contacting them is a good idea.
where i am the local Mind runs has a house where people can meet up and it offers a few groups like art and music but also group counselling for things like hearing voices and self harm etc,
even if Mind don't run anything in your area they might be able to put you in touch with someone who does :smile:
Ok, thanks

About the Common Good Grant Program
Since 2001, an anonymous alumni donor has contributed $10,000 annually for Bowdoin students to allocate to local agencies looking for funding to start new initiatives and maintain existing programs. Acting much like a community foundation, students in the program solicit donations to augment the grant base and evaluate grant proposals to determine which local non-profits will receive the Common Good Grants each spring. The purpose of the program is to provide students the opportunity to learn about grants, foundations, and philanthropy while becoming familiar with local non-profit organizations.
Participating in the Common Good Grant program is a rewarding and educational experience for the members of both the grant and development committees, as they are able to take part in the philanthropic process from beginning to end. Not only designed to strengthen the bonds between Bowdoin College and the greater Brunswick community by honoring local non-profits, the program also empowers students by helping them to make a difference in their community through an educational experience. Since its inception, the Common Good Grant program has distributed over $269,000 in grants to 139 non-profit organizations in the community.
Grant Application Information
The Common Good Grant program is pleased to request proposals from community organizations for this year's grant. Local non-profits that serve the greater Brunswick area (Brunswick, Harpswell, Georgetown, Phippsburg, Freeport, Topsham, Bath, Bowdoinham, Woolwich, Lisbon, Lisbon Falls, Bowdoin and Yarmouth) are invited to apply. In addition to organizations from these locations, we are also inviting organizations that hosted McKeen Center orientation trip groups from across the state to apply this year. Organizations who received funding in the previous year or in three of the previous eight years are ineligible to apply in the current year.
Unlinke previous years, we will only require organizations to initially submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) to apply for a grant. A one-page LOI will be due by Wednesday, November 15, 2017 at noon EST. Organizations will be notified of their status by December 15, 2017 and organizations selected to formally apply for the grant will need to submit their application by January 27, 2018.
Letter of Intent Information
Letter of Intent Request
Your organization's letter of intent (LOI) should be no more than one page, single spaced and written, if possible, on the letterhead of your organization. In the letter, addressed to the Common Good Grant Committee, we ask you to provide the following information:
- A brief history of your nonprofit and its programs
- How much funding you are applying for and what your objectives are with the funding (you can indicate interest in exclusively the $5,000 or $2,500 grant, or express interest in both);
- What outcomes you expect from the grant;
- Additional support, financial or programmatic, your organization has for the grant;
- Contact information for your organization's grant steward.
Your LOI must be submitted via email to Tom Ancona (firstname.lastname@example.com) by Wednesday, November 15, 2017 at noon EST.
Common Good Grant Student Committee
The Common Good Grant program is run each year by a committee of 20 dedicated students. Students are selected for the committee in the fall semester and participate in weekly educational sessions to learn more about non-profits, the non-profit sector in Maine, grants, and development work. The students are separated into two committees:
- Grant Committee: Twelve students are selected to be on this committee. In the spring, the committee reviews submitted proposals, conducts site-visits to grant finalist organizations, and selects the grant recipients, who are presented with checks at the Common Good Grant Awards Ceremony in April.
- Development Committee: Started in 2004, this eight-member committee works to raise funds to add to the $10,000 yearly grant base. Serving on the Development Committee provides a unique opportunity to participate in a strategic fundraising initiative to benefit local non-profits. Not only do participants work to raise additional funds for the existing grant base, they also increase their understanding of non-profit organizations and gain key fundraising skills in the process. The group develops a case to solicit donations. In pairs, students meet with potential donors in the winter and spring. All funds raised are then added to the Common Good Grant fund, expanding the number of community projects supported.

Who is Artavazd Peleshyan?
Artavazd Peleshyan: Artavazd Ashoti Peleshyan is an Armenian director of film-essays, a documentarian in the history of film art, and a film theorist. However, his work, unlike Maya Deren's, is not avant-garde, nor does it try to explore the absurd. It is also not really art for art's sake, like the work of Stan Brakhage, for instance, but is generally acknowledged, rather, as a poetic view of life transferred onto film.

So, when my sister and I were in Chicago we were having a discussion about eyebrow tweezing. We both mentioned that the place we always noticed our eyebrows growing out of control was in the car in the rearview mirror. At that moment, we both said..."hey, we should keep some tweezers in the car for a quick touchup." And then just hours later we were in the Nordstroms Rack and I found two of the mini Tweezerman tweezers for only $7 each. And, since I felt it was definitely fate, I snatched up the mini tweezers and presented them to my sister as a lovely reminder/souvenir of our Chicago trip. Odd??? Yes, but oh so practical. I keep mine in the car and absolutely love knowing I can do a quick fix right in the driveway!!! Want more great tips? Check out Rocks in My Dryer. And, here's the word I have chosen for 2009...CREATE!!! It really encompasses so much of what I am striving for right now. I want to create:
- a happy home & husband
- a relaxed attitude
- joyful children
- a less stressed life
- pretty crafts
- yummy food
- a better me
So, I am hoping to set off in the right direction as I attempt to Shine in '09!!!

Overlord Episode 6 Impression
On this episode, Ainz and the other adventurers begin their journey. Later, they fight against a group of monsters.
It's kinda funny and interesting to see Ainz continue to hide his undead appearance by doing things that a human would do. Also they revealed a bit more on the adventurers' personalities and abilities which is cool. Other than that, I wonder what our male lead is going to do next along with his current party. Now what's going to be next plot and will they encounter that deadly mysterious blonde girl soon? Overall, cool action and some plot development.
Conclusion: Cool action and some plot development.

Human rights groups are raising alarms over a new law passed by the Iranian parliament that would require the country's Jews and Christians to wear coloured badges to identify them and other religious minorities as non-Muslims.
"This is reminiscent of the Holocaust," said Rabbi Marvin Hier, the dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles. "Iran is moving closer and closer to the ideology of the Nazis."
Iranian expatriates living in Canada yesterday confirmed reports that the Iranian parliament, called the Islamic Majlis, passed a law this week setting a dress code for all Iranians, requiring them to wear almost identical "standard Islamic garments."
The law, which must still be approved by Iran's "Supreme Guide" Ali Khamenehi before being put into effect, also establishes special insignia to be worn by non-Muslims.
Iran's roughly 25,000 Jews would have to sew a yellow strip of cloth on the front of their clothes, while Christians would wear red badges and Zoroastrians would be forced to wear blue cloth.
Ok, so Ahmadinejad is a Holocaust denier, who, at the same time, uses all the methods and rhetoric of Hitler. Still having trouble figuring it out?
UPDATE: Commenter Jordan writes in to say: News update: This actually might not be a true story. There are conflicting reports and the Canadian National Post is trying to sort it out.

Health Benefits for Same-Sex Couples
Friday, July 25, 2008
So I saw this tonight on FoxNews.com.
Kinda stupid, I must say.
First of all, I don't see why exactly it's news that gay couples want to get each other on their insurance policies now that they've been allowed to marry. After all, that was part of the justification for their getting married in the first place.
Second, I don't see why any of this is an issue. Gay couples wouldn't have had too much to clamor about if their rights in general would have been respected - rights that the rest of us should have (and often don't) as well.
Think about it. If you're willing to pay the premium, why the hell SHOULDN'T you be able to put WHOMEVER THE HELL YOU WANT on your insurance policy? Why in the hell should you have to be married to get that? If that had been the case, there would have been one less reason for these people to want to pervert the sacred institution of marriage. If I want to insure my cousin or my neighbor, for example, why should I be barred from doing that?
Bottom line: Gay people have the right to insure each other at will, AND SO DO THE REST OF US. It's about time that right were recognized for all of us, not just homosexuals.
I'm no fan of "gay marriage", as people well know, but I'm also no fan of depriving people the basic rights of humanity, gay or otherwise. If these people are willing to pay the premiums, then court action shouldn't be a requirement to get them insured.

Portland Public Library receives $50,000 grant for health information initiative
This project is grounded in three critical goals: improve access to reliable health information for underserved populations, strengthen partnerships with local health organizations, and improve health literacy for library patrons. To accomplish this, the library will offer public health information workshops, targeted use of specific online resources, and the efforts of a health outreach specialist. Access to high quality health and understandable information, can help members of these groups have greater confidence in making their health decisions. "Public libraries transform lives. We believe that by bridging gaps in access to health information, the community's health will be stronger. Informed patients can make better decisions about their health and wellness," states Sarah Campbell, Executive Director of Portland Public Library.
Portland Public Library provides resources and experiences to build community awareness, improve access to information, and increase civic engagement. In 2014, PPL identified health as a focus area to stimulate community health literacy and convene community conversations about key health issues. We offer workshops, community discussions, and direct interaction with health professionals and organizations, in order to build awareness around health information resources and provide opportunities for deeper engagement around the issues most critical to our community.
The National Library of Medicine (NLM), on the campus of the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland, has been a center of information innovation since its founding in 1836. The world's largest biomedical library, NLM maintains and makes available a vast print collection and produces electronic information resources on a wide range of topics that are searched billions of times each year by millions of people around the globe. It also supports and conducts research, development, and training in biomedical informatics and health information technology. In addition, the Library coordinates a 6,000-member National Network of Libraries of Medicine that promotes and provides access to health information in communities across the United States.
