Boston Massacre
The Boston Massacre was an unfortunate event which could have clearly been prevented if taken the right precautions and made the right decisions at the right time. According to my text book, the massacre was an attempt at protest against the British soldiers taking over the colonists' jobs. If the soldiers had followed instructions, if Britain had paid the soldiers more, and if Crispus Attucks had taken a more peaceful approach to this problem, things might've gone differently.
First of all, the soldiers were told not to fire any weapons, yet they did. Since the citizens were not armed, the soldiers were clearly at a much greater advantage. If the soldiers had refrained from this action then the "massacre" would've been fairer. Although the shot was just a shot in the crowd, it still started a huge commotion killing 5 innocent citizens. If the soldiers saw the rioters coming to them, they should have immediately put away their fire arms and set a fair ground so that they could settle this practically.
Secondly, the soldiers were highly underpaid; therefore there was the competition for jobs between the colonists and the soldiers who looked for extra work in local shipyards during off-duty hours. The fight originally started over the shortage of jobs. If the British government paid them a little more, the shortage of jobs wouldn't be that big of an issue, and the colonists would not have acted in such a harsh manner. The British government should have known there was tension between these two groups and tried to solve their differences by making more jobs available, more salary for soldiers or fewer soldiers across seas.
Lastly, Crispus Attucks didn't exactly take "the high road" in this situation. He saw what was going on, thought it wrong, and chose to riot. He could've tried to talk to his colony's government to see what could possibly be done on this matter. He could also have calmed the other rioters down and told them not to...

Topic Article #7: The Judicial and Substitutionary Nature of Salvation
by Dr. Eugene Clingman, Executive Administrator
Copyright 2006, International Church Council Project
(This article may be freely distributed so long as it is not altered
and the above information remains intact.)
How amazing that we should need to defend the very foundations of the Gospel from those who call themselves Evangelical! Yes, there are those who call themselves Christians, yet deny the Cross of Christ. They teach a gospel different than that taught by the Bible; for from the first pages to the last, the Bible teaches salvation by judicial substitutionary sacrifice! When God clothed fallen Adam and his wife with coats of skins, we assume blood was shed in the process, and there we see substitutionary salvation. When we see the Lamb, "standing as if slain," in the last pages of the Bible, we are reminded that from cover to cover we see judicial and substitutionary salvation (Rev. 5:12). And the intervening chapters of the Bible are full of descriptions of sin offerings, of peace offerings, of atonement, priesthood, tabernacle, and of blood. Blood, countless barrels of blood! For what? It was substitutionary blood and it was the only hope held out to the race of fallen men. Yet sadly, there are those who still insist the Bible does not teach that Christ's death was for judicial and substitutionary purposes. Jesus' death, they say, means something else. Topic 7 of the International Church Council Project, "Concerning the Judicial and Substitutionary Nature of Salvation," is one of the most important topics we are dealing with.
The historic orthodox Christian belief through the centuries has been that salvation in Christ is both "judicial" and "substitutionary," because the holiness of God requires judgment for sin. Without judicial and substitutionary salvation, sinners will be judged for their sin and rebellion, and cast forever into the Lake of Fire and everlasting torment. The Gospel, the Good News, is that God saves guilty sinners, sinners who have violated God's Law, and thus are judicially condemned in the court of God's holiness, where they are held accountable for their guilty deeds. Guilty sinners have no ability to abrogate their guilt, nor pay the debt for their crimes against God and fellow humans. Therefore they must suffer the penalty of their sin, which penalty is the second death, the lake of fire (Psalm 49:7-9; Romans 1:32; 3:23; Rev. 20:14,15). But wait! There is salvation in Jesus! Jesus has paid the price by taking upon himself the judicial sentence of the sinner's condemnation by becoming their substitute under the wrath of God by submitting himself to the death God himself inflicted on the Cross (Isaiah 53:6,10), so that all who call upon him while recognizing that their only hope of salvation is in him, receive the removal of their guilt and condemnation in exchange for the righteousness which is Christ's. As it is written, God "made him (Jesus) who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in him (Jesus)" (2 Cor. 5:21).
So simple a child can understand it, and though this is indeed the message of the Bible, cover to cover, yet amazingly, there are those who are determined to war against the revelation of God's saving grace, for they exchange the Gospel of our Lord Jesus for a non-judicial, non-substitutionary gospel. This exchange takes several forms. One of those forms is the "moral influence" or "example" theory. This theory says Christ did not die as a payment for sins, but rather as an example of extreme self-sacrifice which we should follow. In his landmark book, "Christianity and Liberalism," ardent liberal opponent, the late Dr. J. Gresham Machen, shows that if the "moral influence" theory is true, then the only thing that makes the Cross of Christ significant is the significance we give it – "The uniqueness of this particular example [of Christ's death], then, can be found only in the fact that Christian sentiment, gathering around it, has made it a convenient symbol for all self-sacrifice; it puts in concrete form what would otherwise have to be expressed in colder general terms."
Another liberal view of the Cross could be called the "God Hates Sin" theory. This theory says that the Cross was not a payment for sin, but rather a demonstration of how much God hates sin. They say God needed a way to convince people that sin is very bad, that God doesn't like it, and that they should try to avoid it. But this theory reduces the payment of the Cross to an attempt on God's part to communicate by example. And if the Cross is only a communication, then why wouldn't God renew the communication every generation by providing other examples?
There are other variations and combinations of these theories, but they all deny the judicial and substitutionary nature of salvation, and in so doing throw away the central truth of the Bible and the sinner's only hope – that the blood of Jesus has been shed on behalf of guilty sinners.
The Cross is forgiveness of sins. How are sins forgiven? They are forgiven judicially (condemnation is removed, Christ's righteousness is given to the sinner) by the substitution of Christ ("the Just for the unjust") in place of the sinner. Without this truth, the Cross is reduced to a sentimental spectacle calculated to capture human emotions with the hope that people will turn to a better life, more kind, more caring, more self-sacrificial. But this gospel is sentiment and warm fuzzy feelings without the substance of the reality that has transpired on behalf of mankind. Without the judicial and substitutionary Cross, the sins of sinners are left untouched, unforgiven, unatoned; the sinner is left guilty in his sins. The true Gospel says that to those who recognize their guilt and confess their need, there is blood poured out on their behalf, that they might be spared and given eternal life as a gift by his grace (Romans 6:23; 5:15). To all who will hear his voice, Jesus says, "Drink from it, all of you; for this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for forgiveness of sins" (Matthew 26:27-28).

I was puzzled when she told him, 'Please, I want that mixture…Yes. I want the one that will make me look like a half-caste within 2 weeks'.
She's beautiful. She's chocolate like me. Why does she want to look like a half-caste?
He mixed a bunch of products together. She paid him 4,000 for it.
Maybe I should have spoken up. What if she had given me that, 'mind-your business- you big-mouthed-girl' kind of look.
I couldn't talk to her. But I could talk to him.
And he laughed and said, 'See you, many girls nowadays want to be fair. It is big business. Men like fair girls. They are more attractive. In fact, if you want, we can turn you to Oyibo within one week'.
Is He right? Is she right?
Do I like myself as I am? Or Should I change the color of my skin to be more attractive?
One day, while at work, Chacha told me about the 'Human Ken doll'. He's a guy who's done a lot of plastic surgery to look like Ken, in the Barbie series.
Why is it hard for us to love ourselves as we are?
Since when did beauty or life become defined by man's standard?
In today's podcast, my friend, Chacha and I discussed identity crisis. I hope you enjoy it.
But wait, a few thoughts.
Do you like you? Do you love you?
A friend shared this write-up with me, and it touched me:
Older boys and men do you remember those days when a woman's worth was far more than her figure? Do you remember the girl you tripped for just because she was reading a novel at the bus station? What about that clean girl whose white socks and clean sandals gave you sleepless night? Wait did I mention the one who swept you away just because she challenged you and answered a question. What about that humble and decently dress girl that was the woman of your dreams. Do I have to name the one who refused talking to you because she thought you smoked cigarette? That one made you go crazy. The other one you admired because she always helped her parents at home and was so respectful. The one who wanted to be a doctor. You remember her? Her ambition made you go crazy for her.
What is happening today? Why has the society reduced a woman to nothing but breast and butt? The society has made women so cheap. Guys think all what makes a woman is the shape of her breast and the size of her butt. Unfortunately this has made some of us girls with very low self-esteem to concentrate on our looks more than our being. No doubt we have slay queens with lay heads. For those who can't afford a surgery, artificial breast and butt gives them fake confidence. The sole aim of most girls now is to be sexy. A girl will do everything possible just to be called sexy. You spend hours learning how to twerk or drop it like it's hot. Every girl wants to be a stripper. We all want to buy dresses that show our figures. Even when we want to take a picture, all our poses look sexual. Why have we allowed society to make us sexual objects? You watch a music video clip today, the men are properly dressed and dancing responsibly while the woman is half naked making sexual moves. I refuse to be sexualized. I refuse to be seen as an object of pleasure. As a woman, there is more to us than our figures. Our figures will not and cannot define us. We don't have to walk half naked to beautiful. All them classy ladies out there it's time we show the world our worth. Our figure has little or nothing to do with our worth. And for the older boys and men out here, It's time you teach these boys that there is more to a woman. I refuse to be sexy and I choose to be classy. Please let's have a rethink its becoming alarming…
God help revive womanhood.
Identity is something I'm passionate about. It's something that God literally saved me from. It's one of my heart message to the younger generation. Know who you are. Know whose you are.
For a long time, I didn't like myself. I didn't think I was beautiful or enough. I craved acceptance, and wouldn't mind doing anything to be accepted…till, God stepped me, dragged me by my hair (being a dramatic here. Ha!), and reminded me that I was loved and accepted, and didn't an additional validation from 'frail' humans to feel loved or accepted.
It took a while, but this truth sank in. Eventually.
I am loved and accepted. God's love for me is massive.
Love yourself….tall or short, fair or dark, skinny or big. There are many shades of beautiful. I am beautiful. Undefined.
When you love yourself, you get to love others. You see others as a blessing, and teachers you can learn from…With love, there's no competition, unnecessary comparison, jealousy or evil in your heart. With love, you whisper kind and genuine compliments, not hurtful comments.
Love yourself. Love your skin.
Loving yourself stems from loving God.
When you love God and you know His truth about you, you will see yourself as He sees you.
He made you and called you royalty, beautiful, a masterpiece, wonderful, royalty….I'm sure you know all that (or maybe you don't)….Now, can it sink deep in your heart…can you believe it? Can you now not live for the validation or applause of others, but live for the audience of 'ONE'…for the one true God and for yourself.
Believing any other thing apart from what Jehovah God says about you is a lie.
Who told you that you were not enough? Don't you know, Jesus died for you…You are that important!
Don't waste your time and existence living in a lie. Believing any thing apart from what Jehovah God says about you is a lie.
"I would rather be what God chose to make me than the most glorious creature that I could think of; for to have been thought about, born in God's thought, and then made by God, is the dearest, grandest and most precious thing in all thinking."
? George MacDonald
Some nuggets I learnt from the podcast with my beautiful friend Chacha included:
- Know who you are, and love who you are. For me to pass love and grace to others, I have to love and show grace myself first….Love your neighbor, as yourself…As yourself. When you don't like yourself….you won't like other people!
- Why do we look at others and envy them…and then slash ourselves to look like them.
- Does it take you extra grace to compliment others? Do you find it hard to gift love and kindness?
- Take a look at yourself. You are made in God's image…uniquely…The person you envy also have their own challenge.
- God made me and called me good. He made and I thought I was wow. And when I look at myself in the mirror and think otherwise—then maybe, I'm calling God a liar…
- He made me wonderfully and fearfully. I am His handiwork. His perfect creation. God made me.
- Being envious is a total waste of time. It is cancer to the bone. It destroys you. It makes you to not appreciate the little things you have.
- Your deformity doesn't define you. It does not make you less human.
- I am not my hair…I am not my eyebrow….I am beyond that.
- While beautifying who you are outside, make sure your inner man is being built too. Work on your inner quality.
- Do everything…See everything through loving lenses.
Do you like you? Do you love you?
Love & Light 🙂

My favorite vacation was a few years ago to Iceland where I motorcycled across an otherworldly landscape of boiling spring water and volcanic rock. I blasted around on a glacier on a snowmobile and rode little Icelandic horses.
But I hadn't had a real adventure since then. Arizona and Canada don't count as real adventures, unless you get caught in an avalanche or slip into a crevasse and have to cut your arm off.
I like adventure, and I also like food. I read restaurant reviews like porn: the textures, the oozing sauces and piquant touch on the tongue. I buy cookbooks and look at the pictures when I am alone.
So when I read about an internationally renowned restaurant on a remote island in the North Atlantic Sea, I decided this would be my next vacation. I would fly away to this archipelago between Iceland and Norway—the Faroe Islands, a place that not one of my friends had ever heard of. In this far-away and obscure country, I would eat at Koks, a restaurant celebrated among chefs and diners all over the world. The young chef had earned his stripes at the famed Noma in Copenhagen.
Eating at this restaurant being the sole reason for my going to the Faroe Islands, I had to say the name out loud to people who did not know that in the language of the people who live there, Koks means "chef." But I got over that.
The Faroe Islands, a self-governing territory of Denmark, is not an easy place to get to. You must fly first to Denmark or Iceland, and the flights from there to the Islands depart only a couple of times a week, and even then, it's not a slam-dunk you're going to get there.
When my flight from Reykjavik was turned back because of the wind, my seatmate told me that they refer to the Faroe Islands as The Land of Maybe: Maybe you'll land, and maybe you won't. After a two-hour wait back in Reykjavik, we tried again and landed in the black of night on a tiny airport runway in the middle of nowhere.
Do not drive anywhere at night in the Faroe Islands. There are no streetlights. But come morning, the islands are everything they've advertised: unspoiled and breathtakingly beautiful. The hills are rugged and rocky, the sea is endless, birds caw, flowers bloom. There are majestic stone skeletons of churches that date back to the 11th century, brightly painted houses with turf roofs. There are the celebrated puffin and there are sheep. Thousands of sheep. The entire human population of all the Faroe Islands combined is about 50,000; there are three times that many sheep.
They are not ordinary sheep. They have broad bodies with dreadlocked coats and skinny legs. They've been bred for their wool and of course for food, but the Faroese love them as pets, too, so even in the tiny villages, sheep roam across yards and street corners. Sheep own these islands. They are noble and serene. I was enchanted by them.
Which is a good thing, because on my 2-hour drive to Gjaargardur Guesthouse on the island of Gjov, I saw not one person, but I saw a lot of sheep who were nowhere as nervous as I was.
The islands are connected by tunnels and bridges, and the roads curl around the mountains and cliffs with panoramic views that soar to the Norwegian Sea. But I remembered an old motorcycle buddy of mine telling me about biking through the Rockies: "You don't want to take your eyes off the road to admire the scenery because you will become part of the scenery."
The roads are typically one lane each way, with no shoulder. When fog drops in, visibility is about 10 feet. There are occasional places where you can pull over if you meet a car coming the other way, but these are few and far between. One of you will have to back up. I actually weighed the consequences of running off the road and plunging into rocky field versus a head-on collision.
There are no cell towers; hence, no cell service. Head-on, we two drivers would be injured and lie there and die; but if I plunged into a field, sheep would be curious and nose around me. A local farmer would come to find his sheep, and he would find me and then, I don't know, throw me on the back of his tractor and take me home to his wife who knows how to set broken bones?
It was at this point in my vacation that I established a testy relationship with my GPS. She had a reassuring, sweet voice and she told me when I needed to make a turn; but on the mountain road to Gjov, there were no intersections, no choices I had to make, so she was silent. She knew I needed no instructions. There was, after all, only one road.
But I needed encouragement. I think in countries like these, a GPS should be programmed to say, after twenty minutes or so, things, like "You're doing a great job!" and "Only another 30 minutes and you're safely at your destination!"
But my GPS said nothing.
"Say something, bitch!" I screamed at her. "I'm all alone here! You're all I got!"
The silence was deafening. I remembered to breathe, and when I reached the guesthouse, the knot in my stomach loosed and my knuckles grew pink again. There were two sheep in the driveway, a postcard village of about 30 houses, a pounding sea, and nothing else.
My stay at the guesthouse was just a preamble to my dinner at Koks, which meant that the very next day I had to brave the same terrifying road to the capital of Torshavn, a bustling city of 13,000 people. And probably 5,000 sheep.
Koks is located in Hotel Foroyar overlooking the town and its busy port. The hotel could be in any big city anywhere in the world but for the women knitting in the foyer, in the breakfast nook, at the bar, in the parking lot. Any time a woman in the Faroe Islands is idle for more than a minute, she knits. On a park bench, on the ferry, in a retail store. With all those sheep, I suppose one has to knit.
So here was my big moment. Koks, the world famous restaurant to which I had traveled over land and sea to visit. But this is a travel article, not a restaurant review. I encourage you free spirits with a taste for unspoiled nature, hiking, bicycling, whale spotting, and a love for sheep to visit the Faroe Islands.

Seven months after Hurricane Maria, Puerto Rico is still dealing with an unstable and unreliable power grid as privatization fears loom.
William Rivers Pitt of Truthout: Much like Watergate left Gerald Ford without the power or mandate to act, impeaching Trump could also curtail Pence's worst ambitions.
Speakout is Truthout's treasure chest for bloggy, quirky, personally reflective, or especially activism-focused pieces. Speakout articles represent the perspectives of their authors, and not those of Truthout.
The United States is perhaps the principal nuclear weapons proliferator in the world today, openly flouting binding provisions of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). Article I of the treaty forbids signers from transferring nuclear weapons to other states, and Article II prohibits signers from receiving nuclear weapons from other states.
As the UN Review Conference of the NPT was finishing its month-long deliberations in New York last week, the US delegation distracted attention from its own violations using its standard red herring warnings about Iran and North Korea - the former without a single nuclear weapon, and the latter with 8-to-10 (according to those reliable weapons spotters at the CIA) but with no means of delivering them.
Every moment of every day, all of humanity is held hostage by the nuclear nine. The nine nuclear nations are made up of the P5 permanent members of the United Nations Security Council and their illegitimate nuclear wannabes Israel, North Korea, India and Pakistan, spawned by the mythological theory of deterrence.
This theory has fueled the nuclear arms race since its inception wherein if one nation has one nuclear weapon, its adversary needs two and so on to the point that the world now has 15,700 nuclear weapons wired for immediate use and planetary destruction with no end in sight.
I walk this imperial capital
looking for War Memorials
they should litter the place what with all the
blood it took to raise it up
Despite the prolonged US-led coalition bombing campaign, the so-called "Islamic State" (IS) recently won victories in Iraq expanding the area under its control. In the wake of these advances, fingers of blame have been pointing in every direction. Democrats continue to blame President Bush for beginning the war, in the first place, while Republican candidates are attempting to turn the tables by blaming President Obama for abandoning Iraq.
What is most disturbing is not the finger pointing, it is the degree to which the pointers have let politics trump history. In reality, Republicans and Democrats both share responsibility for Iraq's dismal state of affairs.
The promulgation of International law addressing crimes against humanity was one of the major legal achievements resulting from World War II. As Robert Jackson, the lead American prosecutor at the Nuremberg trials put it, the crimes bred by that conflict were "so malignant, and so devastating that civilization cannot tolerate their being ignored, because it cannot survive their being repeated."
Crimes against humanity include government-initiated or -assisted policies or practices resulting in massacre, dehumanization, unjust imprisonment, extrajudicial punishments, torture, racial/ethnic persecution, and other such acts. In reference to the last-cited crime, in 1976 the United Nations General Assembly declared the systematic persecution of one racial group by another (for instance, the practice of apartheid) to be a crime against humanity.
On Wednesday, U.S. Representative Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) reintroduced the Private Prison Information Act (PPIA) in Congress. The bill, H.R. 2470, requires non-federal correctional and detention facilities that house federal prisoners to comply with the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by making certain records available to the public.
The bill was introduced with 12 cosponsors, including Representative Steve Cohen (D-TN).
The terrifying film, "The Man Who Saved the World," has been showing in London. Stanislaw Petrov, who appears himself in the film, was the lieutenant colonel in charge of the Russian early warning system when the electronic alarms blared deafeningly and insistently in his command center. All checks confirmed that there was no malfunction.
They confirmed a nuclear attack from the US was on its way. It was not possible to wait for radar confirmation of the incoming ballistic missiles because by that time it would be too late to retaliate. Petrov knew that if he reported the alarm to the high command, they would immediately order a retaliatory strike initiating a globalnuclear war and the end of most of the human race. On his own imitative, he decided that he did not trust the computers and did nothing.
Memorial Day is a day for remembrance and commemoration of those who have died in military service – not least in America's perpetual wars. Even more, though, should it be a time for reflection and reevaluation of the warring impulse and the human price it exacts. I speak as one whose life journey has progressed from small-town boy possessed of patriotic impulses and martial dreams, to eager and ambitious military officer, to dutiful practitioner of failed war, to disillusioned military officer, to unregenerate opponent of all war, whatever its form or purpose.
My journey began when I left home for West Point. I was then captive of an unquestioningly patriotic mentality bestowed on me, unknowingly, by my high school principal. Picture this woman – in her Nurse Ratched shoes; her hair in a severe perm that prefigured Ruth Buzzi's Gladys Ormphby and Dana Carvey's Church Lady; her physique the envy of offensive linemen everywhere; her demeanor akin to Knute Rockne and Vince Lombardi. Addressing us, her charges, in our cramped high school auditorium, she sought to fan the flames of fiery football fanaticism (thank you, gods of alliteration) by relating her experience at that year's Sugar Bowl. Some around her had failed to stand for the playing of the National Anthem. At which point, she barked – she didn't just speak, she barked (doggedly) – "If there are any red-blooded Americans among you, STAND UP!"
Santa Barbara, California - The company that owns the pipeline involved in Tuesday's major oil spill in Santa Barbara has had 175 "spill incidents" nationwide since 2006, including 11 in California, according to a Center for Biological Diversity analysis of federal documents.
Plains Pipeline (a subsidiary of Plains All-American Pipeline) has also had federal enforcement actions initiated against it 20 times since 2006 for its operations across the country, according to data from the U.S. Pipeline & Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. Many of those cases involve corrosion control and maintenance problems on its pipelines, including two cases in 2009 for which the company was fined $115,600.
Chicago's top cop announced the commencement of his "listening tour" - a project inspired by events in Ferguson and Baltimore, that will involve McCarthy and his rank and file "asking what they are doing wrong, and what they can do better." The idea of Chicago's chronically abusive and largely inept police organizing an effort of this kind would be laughable if the issues involved weren't so pressing, painful, and potentially deadly.
For starters, there's no need. "Listening" is a skill that McCarthy and his people could have answered all of their questions with long before tensions boiled over in Baltimore. .

Depending on the area to be worked on, staining and finishing can be an easy DIY project or a complicated job requiring the expertise of a professional. In this article, we'll look at some hot trends in color, how stain and finish are applied, as well as which jobs require a professional touch. We'll also give you some tips on finding the best staining and finishing professionals in your area.
Regardless of the style or design of your home, staining and finishing will be necessary in at least a few rooms. Very few homes are designed without any natural wood, and natural wood that's left unfinished is vulnerable to unwanted stains. It's also very rough to the touch.
Staining a wood surface involves the application of a tint or dye. This is done to achieve a particular look, or to mimic a certain type of wood. In some cases, wood is already the desired color, and only finishing (applying coats of clear sealant) is necessary.
Trendy Decorating Ideas
Whether you're refinishing existing woodwork, installing brand new trim or laying a solid hardwood floor, stain is a great way to customize and personalize your home. Just like a coat of paint, the right shade of stain can make a room come alive.
Stained trim around windows or doors, or other interior features such as stair railings, can all be attractive visual elements. Most homeowners enjoy the appearance of matching trim, since it provides a harmonious look throughout the house. If you think you want to stain the trim in one room differently, use loosely applied fabric, samples of laminate, or some other method to duplicate the color scheme you're planning. Live with this look for a while, in order to determine if you really want to live with in on a more permanent basis.
The stain you choose will almost always be dependent on, or at least influenced by, the dècor of your home and the building style. An ultra-modern home, for example, is often beautifully accented with either very dark stains, such as ebony, or extremely light ones. Many times, a light wood such as bamboo is used and simply coated with sealant, retaining the light color.
In more traditional homes, a warm oak stain is a timeless favorite that's still popular today. Deep, rich wood tones such as mahogany are just as traditional, but a bit more formal. Let your taste, your dècor, and your home itself be your guide when choosing the best stain.
A very hot trend right now is staining old furniture. While this is more of a craft than a home-improvement project, it's very popular right now and offers yet another way to incorporate staining and finishing into the overall dècor of your home. It's often amazing how beautiful an old, ugly painted chair can become once old layers of color are stripped off and the natural wood is allowed to shine through.
Staining a hardwood floor is definitely the biggest and most involved staining and finishing project. In terms of popular trends, the same ideas apply to floors which apply to trim and finish work. Take your decorating theme, your home's architectural style and era into account. A deep ebony floor looks breathtaking in a modern home with sleek lines, but it looks out of place in a traditional home with a rustic theme.
Staining and Finishing Basics
Applying stain and finish is actually a very simple process. One coat of stain is applied in most cases, followed by several coats of clear finish, until the desired level of shine is achieved. The wooden surface must be sanded smooth before applying the stain, and a second sanding is often needed after the stain is dry. Finish, usually either shellac or varnish, is available in three levels of shine: gloss, semi-gloss and satin. Gloss offers the most shine but makes dirt and scratches more readily, while satin has very little shine but camouflages imperfections.
While the steps of staining and finishing are simple, don't' be fooled into thinking that it's an easy job. Many factors must be taken into consideration, and mistakes are terrible eyesores. A single drip can ruin the look of a time-consuming project. Environmental factors like humidity must be taken into account, and even determining the proper amount of stain or finish to load onto a brush takes some practice.
All these small but important elements make most large-scale staining and finishing jobs professional projects. Unless you have experience on the specific type of project you're considering, leave it to the professionals. They have access to equipment which is prohibitively expensive for a home handyman, but which makes the process of staining and finishing faster. They also have the benefit of having worked on many different projects in the past, which gives them perspective on different types of wood, stain and finish, as well as other necessary products. Knowing how these products interact with each other can mean the difference between a drippy mess which must be redone and a beautifully finished piece of wood.
Other Products
In some cases, depending on the project itself and the type of wood involved, products may be used before staining the prime the wood. These products are generally known as primers, although they are sometimes also called sealers. Primers and sealers are technically different products, but many products combine them together. Ask a professional to avoid confusion if you're not sure which product is right for you.
Primer essential prepares the wood for staining. This may involve swelling the wood fibers so they don't' stand up and require extra sanding once stain is applied. It can also be used to tone down a particularly wild grain pattern if your design calls for something more uniform in appearance.
Sealers work by penetrating the wood, giving an extra layer of smoothness for applying stain. These are most commonly used on woods which are extremely porous, such pine.
When staining and finishing outdoor surfaces, a wood preservative is often used. This product may contain a waterproofing agent, or you might apply a separate waterproofing product. Many preservatives and waterproofing products also contain ingredients to prevent or slow the growth of fungus and mildew. If your outdoor structure was built from lumber which was pressure-treated, check with the lumber mill to see how long you should wait before applying any type of stain, sealant or preservative; times vary for different treatment processes.
Safety First
If you are tackling staining and finishing as a DIY project, it's essential to remember the potential dangers of lead-based paints. These paints are not legal to sell anymore, but they were used extensively in the past. Many older homes still feature lead-based paint. If your staining and finishing project involves stripping off old layers of paint, visit your local health department or home center for a lead-testing kit.
Lead is now known to be extremely toxic when absorbed by the body in even relatively small quantities. Lead poisoning can easily occur during the stripping of a piece of furniture. Children are at increased risk, since childhood lead poisoning is hard to detect and may lead to irreversible neurological and cognitive damage.
Stripping lead-based paint is not something to attempt on your own. Hire professionals who have been trained in the safe removal and disposal of lead paint.
Hiring the Right Professional
Once you've decided to hire a professional for your staining and finishing job, you may feel a bit intimidated by the large amount of contractors and handymen in your area. Looking through the phone book, you're likely to find page after page of potential hires. Thankfully, there's an easier way.
Websites which connect professionals with homeowners like yourself have made the process of hiring a contractor or handyman extremely easy. These sites allow you to look through the profiles of professionals in your local area. You can check for licensing, insurance, and experience level. On most sites, you can also read customer reviews, written by former clients. These reviews can be very valuable, since they give you an inside peek at how a particular individual operates when on a job.
Remember to seek out a professional with experience in the precise type of staining and finishing you need. Somebody who has been staining decks or porches for years may have never stained interior wood trim and finish work. Ask about specific experience for the best results. Finishing a hardwood floor is perhaps the most intricate of all finishing jobs, so ensure that your contractor or handyman has stained and finished flooring in the past.
Another important factor is the use of "green†products. During recent years, the popularity of environmentally conscious products has increased dramatically. Products are available for staining and finishing which are much gentler on the environment than those available just a few short years ago.
However, contractors who have not worked with these products in the past may not realize that they act a bit differently during application and drying than more traditional products. If you're trying to reduce your impact on the environment and want to use green products, be sure to ask if your contractor has worked with them in the past. Usually it just takes a few uses to become familiar with these products, but an inexperienced user can easily make mistakes that may lead to time-consuming delays.Posted by: Diane

Rovaniemi Holidays
Holidays to Rovaniemi take you to the heart of Lapland. It's a place of Arctic landscapes, snowmobiles, Finnish cuisine – and, of course, Father Christmas.
A polar capital with a warm heart
Rovaniemi is the capital of Finnish Lapland. It's a small, compact city that comes with a real buzz of modern shopping malls, lively bars and restaurants serving up everything from traditional cooking to French cuisine. It's also got the rather big draw of having Santa Claus on hand – not to mention Arctic wilderness that's perfect for snowsports and sleigh rides. And the whole place is designed to look like a reindeer's head from above – complete with antlers.
Santa Claus Village
It's Christmas all year round at Santa Claus Village, about 8 kilometres north of Rovaniemi on the Arctic Circle. It's a novelty to send greetings from the Post Office here, and there's the chance to learn about the history of Christmas traditions. The place gets busy at the end of November when there are concerts, gift bazaars, performances by Santa's elves, plus the grand opening of SantaPark, Santa's secret underground grotto.
Sporting activities
Father Christmas has some competition. Sporting activities are popular at Ounasvaara, just outside the resort – there are nearly 50 different things to do here throughout the seasons. Cross-country skiing, tobogganing and snowshoeing make up the winter fixtures, while golf and bobsledding top the bill in summer. And the area is also criss-crossed with well-signposted hiking trails.
Reindeer sleigh safaris
Reindeer rides and Rovaniemi go together like turkey and trimmings. You can either try your hand at steering a traditional sleigh yourself, or sit back and enjoy the ride while an experienced guide takes you into the icy wilderness of the Arctic Circle. Some of the sleigh-ride operators also do visits to a reindeer farm, where you can meet the animals up close.

Today is yours to spend how you like. You can sign up for a reindeer safari, and Elf Adventure or visit Lapland's Arctic Wildlife Park.
Guests on 3-night trips will enjoy Day 4's activities today instead.
Day 4
The finale of your trip sees you visiting the fun-filled Santa Park, where you can graduate from Elf School and decorate gingerbread.

What's more, you're in for a special surprise as today's the day to meet Santa Claus.

Need to know
What should I pack?If you're coming to Lapland for the day, we recommend you wear warm clothes and only take hand luggage on the plane, as we'll lend you a cosy all-in-one thermal suit, as well as boots, gloves, socks and a hat. If you're on a 3 or 4-night trip, we'll still kit you out with all the necessary gear - which is yours for the duration of your holiday - but it's a good idea to bring lots of layers, too.
What's the weather like?In December, daytime temperatures generally range from 0 to -20 degrees, but it can fall as low as -40 during a particularly cold spell. You'll get four to five hours of 'grey light' between about 10am and 3pm. The rest of the time it's dark, but still quite bright because of all the snow. What's more, all the activity areas are well lit.
What's the food like?It depends on where you stay, but most hotels in Lapland put on international buffet spreads. Usually, there'll be a selection of meat, fish and pasta dishes to choose from, as well as a variety of vegetables and salad. You'll also find children's favourites, like chips, meatballs, and burgers on offer. And some places serve Finnish specialities, like smoked reindeer pizza.
Is Lapland suitable for young children?We don't recommend our Lapland trips for children under 4-years-old. That's because the chilly temperatures and types of activities aren't suited to really little ones. If you do bring toddlers along, though, you'll need to provide their own thermal clothing.
Do I need insurance?It's essential you and your family have the protection you need in case the unexpected happens. What's more, if you want to take part in any snow sports when you're away, you'll need a policy that covers you for these. For more info, ask us about travel insurance when you book your holiday – we'll help you find the right cover for you.
Is there any skiing?Although skiing isn't included in our Lapland packages, it's easy to arrange some time on the slopes. You'll find cross-country and downhill skiing in most of the destinations in this brochure, but Levi and Yllas in Kittila are the best places for the sport.
Can I drive a snowmobile?If you want to get behind the wheel of a snowmobile, make sure you bring your full UK driving licence with you. As long as local guides agree, children aged 12 and over can ride as a passenger on your snowmobile. Younger children have to travel in a sleigh pulled by one instead.

I spent part of my evening shopping for toys online. We're getting both my nephew and Janie's 3-year-old cousin gifts and I decided I could find better toys online than any Target or Toys R Us. I wanted something fun and interesting and preferably not poison from China. Sorry China.
As I was browsing, Janie and I found about 20 different toys that we wanted. Most of the pony-related toys were Janie's favorites. I found myself surprisingly attracted to toys that I played with when I was younger, like the pegs you pound through a wooden board and that plastic barn with farm animals. What I wanted most were those awesome wooden building blocks, the plain colored ones that came in all different shapes. The ones where you build a giant structure and then your brother comes in and kicks it so hard that it explodes all across the playroom. Maybe your parents find some pieces embedded in the wall.
I can't wait until we have kids. I'm going to get them those wood blocks and teach them how to build giant castles. Then when they're admiring their handiwork, I'm going to kick it down. That's to teach them about the importance of proper construction.

We come from garageland, and we use garageband
Well, now that you've had time to absorb the full impact of T. S. Eliot's uneven Four Quartets, let's turn our attention to hip-hop.
Goodbye, "age of the iPod," hello, "age of GarageBand." A week ago it occurred to me that my crappy Mac laptop from 2008 (I know, I know) nonetheless had a working copy of GarageBand. It's absolutely mindblowing. I fiddled with it for half an hour, and that was already enough to be mixing "samples" from Louis CK's Live at the Beacon Theater into tracks from the underrated Prodigy album The Fat of the Land. The result, entitled "There's Plenty of Stuff to Eat (In The Mindfields)," sounded a little less good than Girl Talk, but only a little.
The effect of this absurdly accessible, user-friendly technology is to make artists who — only a few years ago — would have sounded like unsigned hopefuls with demo tapes, into artists who are virtually indistinguishable from the heavyhitters. Two examples: Kreayshawn's new single "Breakfast (Syrup)," and a song called "Swag That Shit" by Sacramento local Knox.
Kreayshawn's song is a total disaster. It's so painfully lame that it makes me feel, retrospectively, sort of uncomfortable about liking "Gucci Gucci." (I call this "The Andrew W.K. Effect.") It's one of those songs that fits right between a novelty song (which would hopefully be funny) and a real party song (which wouldn't be this corny). The conceit is…puns about pancakes and money. She gets all the syrup, she wants dough — get it? Are you with me so far? She throws in "I'm a playboy bunny" out of sheer laziness, and (in the video) walks around in Mad Men housewife outfits, looking like nothing except a wannabe Amy Winehouse. Jesus. It's enough to make me miss MacLethal from The Pitch.
The only things that makes the song even worth mentioning: first, it sounds pretty good for generic crunk. Weird Al's worst original songs were better than this, but sounded infinitely lower-rent. Welcome to the age of GarageBand. Second, "Breakfast (Syrup)" features an insultingly bored cameo from 2 Chainz. Who the fuck is this buster? Who starts a rap with "OK, I'm awake"? Is he six years old? 2 Chainz is suddenly everywhere, despite having nothing to say (he was also on Nicki Minaj's good track, "Beez in the Trap," making it not as good). His well-connected managers, whoever they are, are doing a great job making hip-hop seem dead once again.
Full disclosure: Knox and I follow each other on Twitter, and he asked me to listen and comment on the track.
It's pretty good. It's significantly better than I was expecting. He's talented; he's got a snappy, angry voice. The vocal sound is Michigan/Canadian (P.O.D., Sage Francis), including the multitracked vocals only-on-the-rhyme that Francis and Eminem use so well. It sounds great here, too. The production is chopped-and-screwed Houston, and like all of the slowed-down vocal samples in this world, it's awesome.
The only problem with the song is this…
Fuck corporations! I drink starbucks
Hitchhike on other peoples bikes cuz my car does
not exist
but errybody know dat
Hoodrats aksin' me where the muthafuckin' flows at
then we smoke crack after we shoot krok,
go to ground and build a mosque with barack
obama wackaflocka flame
…none of which works. The jab at "crunchy" people, or whatever "I drink starbucks" is, doesn't scan, and isn't redeemed by the fact he doesn't have a car. The "Barack Obama is a Muslim" line also doesn't come off; it's meant facetiously, but there's no joke there, and "wackaflocka flame" (he's an MC) is just a throwaway setup for the next rhyme. In such surroundings, "we smoke crack" seems dubious too, although I guess if they do, they do. Bottom line, this strikes me as undigested filler that never got replaced by something better.
Anyway, it's too bad, because the next lines are, in fact, funny and clever, and he delivers them quick and clean:
Speak n spell a talkin game
everydays a walk of shame
I fuck it like a soccer mom
I bust it like the condoms on
whatever tip the shamans on
like cosplay at the comicon
with sailor moon and rikku
and a million people
(Nerd pride, y'all.) The track is here; I think Knox is going to deliver more good stuff, so it's worth hearing him launching with this. He's still doing some preliminary fine-tuning, but hell, I'll take his hunger over Kreayshawn's "OMG this is so easy!" pancake-stuffed food coma any day of the week. As I lay it down on "There's Plenty of Stuff to Eat":
Knox is sittin' here on deck
While "Pancake" is…batter up
better watch who's comin' up

This week's recipe is a simple, easy and quick way of ensuring you and your family get a big dose of antioxidant rich leafy greens. My little boy adores this smoothie more than any other smoothie I have prepared for him. At 19 months old he will drink a large adult sized glass of this and be begging for more. It is perfect to give at any meal, but is a popular breakfast and snack time treat in my home. The star of this recipe is... kale!
I try my best to consume kale on a daily basis. The options are endless as to how to get this power house food into your diet. It is great for steaming, sauteing, adding to soups, stews or eating it raw in salads and smoothies. Consuming it raw will certainly give you more of the amazing nutrients it has to offer.
Kale is part of the brassica family along with cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and collard greens. As with most brassica vegetables, kale has incredible cancer fighting properties due to a chemical it contains called sulforaphane. This chemical is most easily accessed by the body when it is consumed uncooked, and particularly minced, chopped or pureed (like in this recipe!). Kale also provides valuable cardiovascular support in terms of its cholesterol-lowering ability.
Kale contains very high amounts of beta carotene, vitamin K, vitamin C, and is a wonderful source of calcium.
This recipe will yield 2 large servings.
Green Coconut Smoothie
2 cups of washed and torn kale leaves
1 small papaya diced (approximately 2 cups)
1 1/2 cups of frozen or fresh peaches
1 banana
2 tbsp. of shredded coconut (unsweetened)
2 dates (remove the pit!)
1 1/4 cup of coconut water
Place all of the ingredients in a blender and blend on high for a few minutes until you reach the consistency you desire. If the mixture is too thick for your liking, add more water table spoon by tablespoon until you reach the consistency you like.

By now most know just how magical the past twenty four hours has been for the DC area. And while I could go on about this and that. About my emotions, and everything that goes along with game 7s, including what else but an OT game winning goal in favor of us. But sometimes words are not needed....so I will let a couple of pictures be my words for the day...
Moments after we won.
Yep. This is pretty much sums up exactly what I was feeling after the game. Surprisingly I did not wake up little man who slept through the entire game. Believe me it was not easy yelling at the top of my lungs, without making a sound.
And the Caps have eliminated the reigning Stanley Cup champs. Much to the surprise of pretty much everyone, well except for the fans of the team that is. Because yep we knew they could.
Congrats boys.
Enjoy the moment...

Thirty-two elite players from eight countries will compete at Caves Valley Golf Club to determine which nation has the best women's players in the world.
It's not about individual play. None of the eight teams has a captain, and unlike the Solheim Cup, this isn't just the United States versus Europe.
"For me, to be able to wear our Australian colours and play under the Australian flag is something that's very special," said Karrie Webb, who's competing in her first professional team match-play event.
The United States is the top seed at the LPGA Tour-sanctioned tournament that begins today.
"I think we would be bummed if we weren't No. 1," said American Paula Creamer, a 10-time tour winner.
Australia, South Korea, Japan, Sweden, Thailand, Spain and Taiwan also hope to raise the trophy after the final ball drops into the hole Sunday.
Creamer and teammates Stacy Lewis, Cristie Kerr and Lexi Thompson have all played for the Solheim Cup. Although the format of this event isn't the same, the Americans will draw upon that experience.
"It's got a little bit of a different feel, just having all the other countries and obviously a lot more players," Lewis said. "But it's cool. I think it's really great. It's something we needed for a long time."
For the first three days, the teams will stay within their respective pools. Each country plays two best-ball matches against every other nation in its pool.
"Golf being such an individual sport, we don't get to play as a team very often," Thompson said. "Being part of a team, it's just such an amazing feeling. Hearing 'USA!' chants going up every green, it's the best experience."
The U.S. will open against Taiwan, and South Korea will face Australia in Pool A today. In Pool B, Japan faces Sweden, and Thailand takes on Spain. The teams shuffle foes until Sunday, when the top four teams and a wild card meet in a total of 10 singles matches.
The country with the most points over the four days wins.
"It's kind of a new experience for me because I can't play in the Solheim Cup," Japan's Ai Miyazato said. "This is an amazing feeling, representing my country. Seeing my country flag everywhere on this golf course gives me goose bumps."
Because there are no captains, each team determined its opening pairings by a meeting of the minds.
"We're all very indecisive," Webb acknowledged. "I mean, it took us about 20 minutes to decide where we were going to dinner the other night. So no one's really making any assertive calls out there."
The South Korean team ran business in similar fashion.
"It's kind of sharing thoughts," Inbee Park said.
