JAMES J. MCKEON, APPELLEE,v.MARTHA MCKEON, APPELLANT.
Appeal from the Superior Court of Cook county; the Hon. ROBERT
F. COTTON, Judge, presiding. Order reversed and cause remanded
with directions.
This is an appeal from an order entered in the superior court of Cook county denying a petition to vacate a decree which granted plaintiff a divorce and dismissed defendant's counterclaim for separate maintenance.
April 9, 1952 an unsworn complaint for divorce was filed by James J. McKeon against Martha McKeon alleging extreme and repeated cruelty. Summons was issued and an appearance was filed by defendant on May 5, 1952. The defendant filed an unsworn answer on May 12, 1952 denying all the allegations in the bill except the allegations as to residence, marriage and the birth of a child. On the same date the defendant filed a sworn counterclaim for separate maintenance, alleging that the parties lived and cohabited as husband and wife until on or about February 29, 1952, when the counterdefendant willfully deserted and absented himself from the counterplaintiff, and has persisted in such willful desertion until the present time; that she is now living separate and apart from the counterdefendant without fault on her part. The counterclaim also has allegations with reference to the employment of the counterdefendant and a prayer for alimony and support money for the minor child. It appears from the record that no reply or answer was filed to this counterclaim.
On May 28, 1952, on the petition of the defendant, an order was entered by the court allowing the defendant the sum of $70 a month for temporary support of the minor son of the parties, who was aged 16, and it was further ordered that a preliminary hearing be held on June 27, 1952. The preliminary hearing was continued from time to time, and finally to September 10, 1952. No hearing was held. On September 10, 1952 the petitioner filed a petition for a rule to show cause against the plaintiff for failure to comply with the order of court with reference to payment of attorney's fees, and a rule was entered against the plaintiff, which rule was dismissed on motion of the defendant on September 30, 1952, the fees having been paid.
The record shows that on May 8, 1953, the cause coming on to be heard on the regular call, it was assigned to Judge Cotton. A hearing was had before Judge Cotton the same day. At the trial of the case the defendant and counterplaintiff did not appear, nor was she represented by counsel. Evidence was heard on the part of the plaintiff and counterdefendant, and on May 14th the court entered a decree for divorce.
The first paragraph of the decree reads as follows:
"This cause coming on to be heard on the regular contested divorce calendar upon the complaint of James J. McKeon, the Answer and Counterclaim of Martha McKeon and the Answer of Plaintiff thereto and the Court having considered the same and having heard the sworn testimony of witnesses, FINDS: . . ."
The decree also provides: "Defendant has failed to prosecute her counterclaim and said complaint should be dismissed." The custody of the minor child was awarded to the defendant and it was decreed that the plaintiff should pay the sum of $70 a month for support and maintenance. With the decree was filed a transcript of the evidence.
On August 18th, by leave of court, the defendant and counterplaintiff filed a sworn petition to vacate and set aside the decree of divorce and the order in the decree dismissing the counterclaim for separate maintenance, in which petition the defendant alleges that neither the defendant and counterplaintiff nor her attorney had any knowledge of the entry of the decree of the court until August 7, 1953; that no notice of the presentation of the decree and transcript of evidence on May 14, 1953 was given to the defendant or her attorney; that the recitation of the decree of divorce that the case was heard on the plaintiff's complaint, answer and counterclaim by the defendant, and the answer thereto by the plaintiff, was not true inasmuch as no answer had been filed by the plaintiff to the defendant's counterclaim; and that the case, therefore, was not at issue at the time heard for trial. The petition further alleges that the parties had lived together as husband and wife until February 29, 1952, when the plaintiff told the defendant that he had fallen in love with another woman and wanted a divorce; that on the date when the case first came on the contested divorce calendar April 23, 1953 the attorney for the defendant and counterplaintiff was at home attending to his sick mother; that the case was thereupon continued to May 8, 1953 without any order appearing in the docket or the case file; that no notice was given to the defendant or her attorney of such continuance; and that the evidence of the plaintiff and his witnesses with reference to the acts of cruelty was false and was not sufficient to sustain the decree for divorce.
On September 24, 1953 the plaintiff and counterdefendant filed, by order of court, a sworn answer to the petition, in which he alleged that the case appeared on the trial call of the contested divorce cases in its regular position in the assignment court on April 23, 1953 and was set for trial May 8, 1953, on which day it was assigned to Judge Cotton as a contested case; that he admits no notice of the presentment of the decree was given; that he denies the allegations that no answer to the counterclaim was filed, but alleges that an answer was filed by him "in the office of the Clerk and a carbon copy of same produced at the hearing." He further alleges that prior to April 23, 1953 notice was given in the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin that the case would be called on April 23, 1953, that on April 23rd the case was called and set for May 8, 1953; that the Law Bulletin on April 23rd carried a memorandum that the case was set for May 8, 1953, and on May 7th listed the case as being on the call for trial at 10:00 a.m. the following day. He denied all the other allegations in the petition, and says that the defendant was guilty of negligence in not protecting her interests and cannot now be heard to complain as she had her day in court; that the plaintiff has since remarried and his rights and the rights of an innocent third party would be greatly prejudiced.
The court heard the petition and answer on the merits. Evidence was introduced. The court entered an order denying the petition of the defendant and counterplaintiff to vacate the decree for divorce and order dismissing her counterclaim, to the entry of which order an exception was taken.
The trial court filed a memorandum opinion with its order, in which it states:
"As to the procedural aspects of the case, it is alleged that the plaintiff had failed to file an answer to the counterclaim of the Defendant. However, this matter, having been adjudicated in the decree, it is presumed that the Court had all evidence before it to sustain its finding in that respect. Furthermore, to say that the answer to the counterclaim was not in the file some time after the decree was entered, is not of any evidentiary value that it was not in the file at the time of the trial or hearing. Indeed, it may be said further that the fact that it was not in the file at a later date, if such was the case, is not even persuasive that it was not in the file at the date of the trial."
The court found that the case was handled in the usual, regular and customary manner. In the memorandum opinion it is further stated:
"It is furthermore argued by petitioner that some sort of notice should have been given to the defendant. Such is not the procedure under the facts and circumstances of this case. If the pleadings were settled, it was then a matter of the trial court ...

My daughter Catherine is just starting to develop some advanced theories about monsters. She said she's "skeered" of them, but she scared them away and they went home.
Where do they live?
"In the hospital."
I'm pretty sure she's absolutely correct about that. Maybe that's why I dislike hospitals so much.

Respecting Animal Rights
Animals, being conscious and responsive, have some similarities with human beings. There are many pet owners in this world who would quickly tell you that animals are unique and they are precious in their own identity, and they should certainly be loved and nurtured. There are many people in this world who don't really care what animals feel or be concerned that they are nourished and cherished because they are lower than human beings when it comes to intelligence.
There are many people today who do not care about the lives of animals and they don't see the animals' right to life that they deserve. Some groups believe that humans should be above all animals and there is a moral distinction between them. There are also those who don't believe that animals feel, sense, or experience like humans do and that they should not be give a status equal to humans but lower than them. These beliefs came from a faulty sense of righteousness and entitlements. If people will just overcome their biases, then it all boils that to animals having their own rights in this world.
Another right that animals have is the right to thrive in a clean, safe, and sustainable environment. We all know humans have this kind of behavior to destroy the natural world like what they do to lush rainforests which soon becomes flat lands and rich coral reefs are turned into ocean wastelands. If we destroy the environment for human gain, then we are also destroying the only places which animals can call home. We can closely link the animal rights movement to the green movement because of this.
There are animals or animal parts that are being used for products that is to be sold in the market and this …

text: 4711 – (pronounced four seven eleven) is the original eau de cologne, the formula for this 'aqua mirabilis' of which has remained a secret for over 200 years. It is one of the oldest brands in the world and is rumored to use a formula handed down from a monk. Having gone through variations, the current bottle in which the perfume is now bottled, has a small collar piece between the shoulder and the cap of the bottle, which enables the liquid to expand. It was available in Kuwait a long time ago…though I haven't seen this around recently.

It doesn't feel like it was too long ago when I wrote the blog post announcing our move downtown. But after an adventurous year and a half, we're happy to announce our next chapter: building a new home!
We've been working on researching schools, the idea of buying property downtown, checking out different areas of Cincinnati and even looking into homes in Northern Kentucky. Considering everything from the school districts, being close to family and friends, plus having a sense of community, we looked further into new development on the west side.
We settled on the new subdivision Greenshire Commons and went with MI Homes as our builder. We're so excited!
Below is a glimpse at our new neighborhood and some renderings John created so we can get a better idea of what the inside of the home will look like. We haven't completed our trip to the design center yet to finalize all the small details, but we have settled on the model and the elevation of the home and our lot.
What's even better — it's our 7 year wedding anniversary today. And the day we finalized our plans, signed the papers and put down the deposit. Our expected time frame to move is in April of 2016. Let's just say, it'll be hard to top this anniversary present in the coming years!
Here's a little sneak peek:
Above is our lot. I'm sure looking forward to the gorgeous sunsets!
The front of the home (the brick color hasn't been chosen yet), but this gives you an idea.
An idea of what the back of the home will look like – although it may differ from this rendering John drew up depending on the elevation of our yard and how the house will sit.
A look at the floor plan for the first floor John modeled out for us.
The kitchen. Again, we haven't decided on colors for the granite, cabinets or hardwood yet. That will come later this month or next month when we head to the design center!
And the neighborhood.

Ecclesiastes 3:9-14 (NIV)
What do workers gain from their toil? I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God. I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that people will fear him.
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens. (Ecclesiastes 3:1) This statement is followed by each seasonal partner under the sun. There is a time to be born and a time to die is the very first one. I understand that everyone has a birthday and a day that they will leave this world. I just don't always understand God's Purpose in His Timing and execution of His Plan especially when the good die young, and evil live long lives. There are many things about God's Way that eludes me. These are the areas where faith and trust bond us together with Jesus so we can continue to follow Him walking in His Ways even when there seems to be no goodness or mercy to be found.
I knew who she was when I saw her. I asked someone to introduce us. I was supposed to meet her. We were meant to connect. However, she was very stand offish. My enthusiasm overwhelmed her, it took me by surprise. When she grasped my extended hand, I could feel it. I remember it. I understand it. God has saved, healed and delivered me from it. Timing is everything and though she endured much more than what was required of me, I knew in an instant that this was part of my purpose and plan to help her experience the freedom found when our heart is free again. Even though I don't understand the Plan of God or His Way, life has produced enough experience to realize that we don't have to know if we can just find it in our heart to love, trust and honor the Lord – over and over again.
Sir Isaac Newton is credited with the important law of physics that says, "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. I am no scientist. Barely making it through science in school and struggling even more with mathematics, I have to give credit to the Holy Spirit for bringing this concept to my mind. God loves science until it decides He is not the driving force behind it. Science in not the enemy but rather the one who tells us that science is responsible for the complexity and perfection of humanity and the world in which we live. Reading Ecclesiastes 3 puts this into perspective today. There is a time for everything. It is predetermined. It is predestined. To learn, understand and live by God's Timing requires faith. Without faith, it is impossible to know or understand that all things work together for our good even concepts. Each one represents an action with an equal and opposite reaction. This totally eliminates the gray area that humanity has created as a dwelling place between this world and God's Kingdom. It forces us to choose.
Jeremiah 29:11-13 (NIV)
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
God has a plan for you that was handwritten from beginning to end before our birth lasting beyond natural death. (Psalm 139:16) It is completely comprehensive lacking not a single detail. Finite thinking has a problem with this not in the action but in the equal and opposite reaction. So how do we know that God works together all things for our good (Romans 8:28)? This is the verse that allows us to step over God's Timeline when it does not meet human expectation or automatically breaks the human heart effecting our mind, will and emotions.
We are given a free will. (John 8:36) Without freedom, we would not be able to express love to the Lord because we would be bound and held captive. God does not save us and keep us. Jesus saves us and frees us to choose darkness or light and good or evil. With the slate wiped completely clean in each moment of every single day, we have the right and responsibility to choose. Our choices determines the resulting action in our life. The Son gives us absolute freedom to choose life over death in each moment.
Jeremiah 29:11 is often claimed by Christians who do not read beyond this verse to know what is required. The requirement of God's Plan filled with prosperity, hope and a future is to seek Him with our whole heart. Any part of our heart given to something less than God's Best has an equal and opposite reaction that can and will produce consequences apart from total obedience and absolute commitment to God. How will we ever discover God's Plan and live out its fulfillment? Obedience and commitment founded on love and trust allow us to submit and surrender our heart willingly even if we do it piece by piece.
Proverbs 16:3-6 (NIV)
Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans. The Lord works out everything to its proper end—even the wicked for a day of disaster. The Lord detests all the proud of heart. Be sure of this: they will not go unpunished. Through love and faithfulness sin is atoned for; through the fear of the Lord evil is avoided.
Love and faithfulness is the desired response of humanity for the salvation received by Jesus Christ. Though human nature is to toil and earn it, it is impossible to do so. If our response is obedience, we will have the outcomes promised in God's Word according to the Will of God. Our commitment to Jesus Christ as Savior allows us the freedom to choose. It is one's personal decision to call Him Lord that allows us to possess all the Promises of God according to His Word and dictated by His Prescribed Plan for our life. A proud heart seeks the Lord of its own accord. It tries to make a way other than the One Way already provided. Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except by me." Is He your Savior today? Is Jesus the Lord of your life? This is the secret to successfully living in the full satisfaction that Jesus has offered to those who follow Him.
Matthew 10:37-39 (NIV)
"Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it."
The process of acquisition according to God's Will is faith. Faith means that we live by what we know not necessarily what we see, feel, taste or touch. Godly knowledge is discovered by reading, studying and meditating on God's Word. The more one desires God's Plan the more they must dig and delve into His Written Word. Not only that, but Jesus is the Word of God wrapped in human flesh. It is by His Example that we have a guideline to follow in this life. He was subject to all the same temptations that we endure and did not sin or rebel against the Father. He was fully God and fully man. Are we so different? Though not the Son of God as Jesus was God's Only Child, we are created in His Image which means we have the ability to grow, mature and develop to be more like Him. It is in our DNA. When sin impeded our progress and stole our future and hope, Jesus went to the Cross walking perfectly through the earth to the Cross. He laid down His Life completely before God the Father to save His Dying People and gave up His Life freely for you and me.
We are to give up this life (our way) if we desire God's Plan. There is no other way. We do not always understand what the Lord is doing or why He allows certain things to happen. Faith is what we use to step over the unknowns to be surrounded by the comfort of knowing God's Timing is just as perfect as His Plan and all things work together for our good. Our alignment with Christ give us the impossible outcomes that only God provides. To take up our cross and follow Him could be all those things that we don't understand to carry them out to fulfillment. I don't know why bad things happen to good people. I am grieved when the young die too soon. Yet I know that I know God is good all of the time. It is with this in mind, that I take up my cross daily and follow Him even when that thing I bear is heavily burdened with the unknown.
John 14:26-27 (NIV)
But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
The Lord did not leave us to fend for ourselves or figure it all out alone. We have an Advocate. He is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is described by many names. This one is very important. He pleads on our behalf. There are times when we have no idea how to pray or have exhausted every effort to petition God for a change. It is in that time that the Holy Spirit intervenes. On those days when everything seems to be falling apart, even us, the Spirit of God holds us together until new mercy arrives the next day. He helps us in ways we do not know. He strengthens us in weakness. He is the understanding we need when it comes to God's Word. (John 5:26) He equips us to keep going when our faith seems so small. He is the Power of God invested in us to carry us through. God's Grace is sufficient in our weakness. The bigger they are the harder they fall. Crying out to God for His Intervention is one thing, but moving out of the way so that He can perform is another.
"My peace I give you." I have confided over and over again that the battle for our son's life broke me. It completely shattered my image of normal life and completely destroyed my carefully constructed comfort zone called control. God gave me peace in exchange for all the stress, worry and anxiety that I accumulated before he got sick and carried us through three long years on faith and hope alone. I had more peace throughout his battle against cancer than I did in "normal" life. God used this horrific experience to change me from the inside out. However, when it was over I walked around like a zombie for a year. Every bit of my personal and physical being a shell of who I was with no idea of who I should be from then on, everything changed including me and now I had to learn what God desired for me again.
When I touched the hand of the woman, I could feel the weight of her burden. Her daughter who also battled cancer is victoriously with Jesus. I see the pain in her eyes. I felt the weakness in her hand. I saw me not too long ago. I felt purpose rising up. I saw a plan forming. I cannot lead others to where I have never been, and though I did not walk as far in faith as she did, I came out very much in the same condition. God wants to set her free. I didn't know her yet during our battle I prayed for her, too. Following her plight through social media, I cried when she had to say goodbye. God's Plan for our life seldom includes just us. He is uniting us with each other to bond us together in love. I have what somewhat else needs. I have gone through things gaining valuable experience that can help them go around. In this case, I know what it takes to release the heavy burden. Death gives way to life in Jesus Christ. As our soul prospers so do we…
Psalm 33:10-11 (NIV)
The Lord foils the plans of the nations; he thwarts the purposes of the peoples. But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.
God's Plan is perfect. It was planned out extensively for our life. To have God's Plan means surrendering our lives to God's Will and His Timing in all things. Sin produces consequences. Obedience allows us to wallow through life in God's Grace. The equal and opposite reactions of Grace populate our life with promises. Every consequence can yield a promise in our life when surrendered and submitted to Jesus Christ. There will be things that happen in everyone's life that cause hurt, pain and hardship. Through our deep and abiding relationship with Christ by faith, we step over these times to find more grace, love and mercy than every thought possible. We cannot fathom the Favor and Goodness of God in our life. It can only be discovered by faith and hope that goes beyond consequences and is willing to wait on God's Timing. How many times have we abandoned the promise that comes with the pain simply because we refused to wait on the Lord? Have many times has God provided a miracle that melted when we walked away? I know that the Lord has big plans for me. I know that every detail of my life can turn out for my good. I must be willing to wait for God's equal and opposite reaction to take place.
Jesus wants to turn our mourning into dancing today. He desires our sorrow be traded for joy. The Lord promises for those who endure to the end will be saved. I encourage you today to pick up those dead dreams and abandoned promises and tuck them back in your heart. The Lord has not failed or forgotten you. He is working out all the problems, hardship and trouble for your full benefit. The magnitude of your pain will be produce an equal measure of joy in your life. I know it seems impossible. With God all things are possible if we believe. The immeasurable lose you have endured will produce more abundance then you have ever known. Don't give up. Scoop up all the pieces of your broken heart and lay them on the altar. The Lord makes all things new. God does nothing halfway. He doesn't compromise for our comfort. He doesn't offer substitutions along the way. Those who wait on the Lord are renewed. They are restored. They are made complete lacking no good thing. This is God's Law of Physics in our life.
Psalm 30:10-12 (NIV)
Hear, Lord, and be merciful to me; Lord, be my help." You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. Lord my God, I will praise you forever.

You Have High Expectations
There's nothing wrong with knowing your self-worth, and we're certainly not suggesting that you start dating someone who takes advantage of you or puts you down. However, so many of us think that our SO should be willing to give us the world and spoil us every chance he or she gets, meaning that if it doesn't happen, we think that our SO doesn't appreciate us enough.
The best way to figure out if your expectations are too high is to list out everything that you want your SO to do, no matter how trivial. If your list is a page long, then you are probably overreaching.
Instead, focus on the things that really matter to you (constant engagement, romantic gestures) and then share that with your new partner. Often we maintain this list without letting our SO know, meaning that we are setting him or her up for failure right off the bat because we assume that these things should be common knowledge.
Another thing to consider is how much of this stuff you are willing to do for your partner and how often you plan on doing them. Relationships are a two-way street, after all.
(Read more about high expectations in this eHarmony blog post.)
You Try to Play Games
If you are the type of person who thinks that there are rules when it comes to dating, that is a huge mistake on your part. Everyone is different and has varying ideas as to how relationships should form, so don't assume that your next SO will feel the same way as you or know how to play the game. This bad dating habit can really hinder relationship growth.
Things like waiting a certain amount of time between calls, trying to play hard to get, and other common tropes may work in the movies, but it can be frustrating and confusing in real life. Instead, know what you want and be open with your new beau as soon as possible.
You don't have to relay your whole life story on the first date, but make sure that you clear the air as to what is important to you and whether you're interested in pursuing the relationship further. Honesty is almost always the best policy unless you're dating a creeper.
You Overanalyze Everything
This is probably the hardest habit to break as it's usually hard-wired into our brains. He hasn't called in two days, what does that mean? She posted her online status as "complicated"? WTF? The best way to understand what your new partner is up to is to talk to him or her, rather than trying to figure everything out on your own.
Communication is the cornerstone of any healthy relationship, so be sure to engage in conversation as often as possible, especially if you're concerned about something or want to make sure that you both are on the same page. As always, it's a two-way street, so be willing to offer your own thoughts and feelings on a regular basis too.
You Try to Impress Your Dates
This is a common mistake that people make, and it can lead to some complicated results depending on how far you go with it. In the end, however, it's better to be upfront about who you are and what you have accomplished, as the truth always comes out.
Even if a lie seems innocuous, it can come back to bite you in the butt later on, so don't risk it. What's most important is compatibility. If you start your relationship off on a lie or by doing too much to grab his or her attention, there is no way that you can keep it up. This means that you either risk losing your SO once the facade wears off, or you have to maintain the illusion through your entire relationship.
You Compare Your Relationship to Others
No two couples are exactly alike, so don't ever think that you're in competition with anyone else. Even if you see other people engaged in a perfect relationship, you don't know what goes on behind the scenes, so you're not getting the whole story. Instead, focus on the best parts of your relationship and build from there.
If you aren't satisfied with the way things are going, then talk to your partner and see how he or she feels, and then work on it. Overall, however, there is no right way to be with someone, so if it works for you, then don't let anyone else try to bring you down.

Bachawat, J.
1. This appeal is directed against an order allowing a writ petition under Art. 226of the Constitution. Maharaja Pratap Singh Bahadur was the proprietor of the estates collectively known as the Gidhaur estate, in Monghyr district. On the publication of a notification under s. 3 of the Bihar Land Reforms Act, 1950 (Bihar Act XXX of 1950) on July 24, 1953 the Gidhaur estate and the interests of the Maharaja therein vested in the State of Bihar. The Maharaja was receiving a permanent malikana allowance of Rs. 5743/14/6 annually in two equal six monthly instalments as shown in annexure 'A' to the writ application. The registers and rolls of the recipients of the malikana maintained by the Collector of the district since a long time past show that the successive proprietors of the Gidhaur estate were receiving the malikana for a long time past. The State of Bihar stopped payment of the malikana allowance from April 1, 1958 on the ground that the proprietary interests of the Maharaja in the Gidhaur estate vested in the State and consequently his right to the malikana was extinguished.
2. The Maharaja alleged in the writ petition that the permanent malikana was payable irrespective of his proprietary rights in his estates notified under sec. 3 and was not income or rent from those estates nor a charge or incumbrance on them. He alleged that the stoppage of the payment of the malikana was illegal and asked for a writ directing the State to make payment of the malikana. The State did not file any return to the petition. The High Court held that the Maharaja's right to the malikana was not an intermediary interest in the Gidhaur estate and did not cease with the extinction of his proprietary right in the estate. Accordingly, the High Court issued a writ in the nature of mandamus commanding the State of Bihar to pay the malikana due to the Maharaja from April 1, 1958. The State of Bihar has filed this appeal on a certificate granted by the High Court.
3. Section 2 of the Bihar Land Reforms Act is the definition section. Section 2(i) defines an estate to mean any land included under one entry in any of the general registers of revenue paying and revenue free lands and includes a share of or in any estate. Section 2(jj) defines an 'intermediary' in relation to any estate or tenure to mean a proprietor, tenure-holder, under tenure holder and trustee. Section 2(jjj) defines an 'intermediary interest' as meaning the interest of an intermediary in an estate or tenure. Section 2(o) defines 'proprietor' to mean a person holding in trust or owning for his own benefit an estate or part of an estate. Section 2(r) defines a 'tenure holder' to mean a person who has acquired from a proprietor or another tenure holder the right to hold land for the purpose of collecting rent or bringing it under cultivation by establishing tenants on it and includes inter alia the holder of a tenure created for maintenance of any person. Section 2(q) defines tenure to mean interest of a tenure holder or under tenure holder. Under section 2A the expressions 'proprietor or tenure-holder' and 'estate or tenure' mean and include 'intermediary' and the 'intermediary interest' respectively. Section 3(1) states that the State Government may, from time to time, by notification declare that the estates or tenures of a proprietor or tenure-holding, specified in the notification, have passed to and become vested in the State. Section 4(a) and 23(1) are as follows :-
'4. (a) Consequences of the vesting of an estate or tenure in the State. Notwithstanding anything contained in any other law for the time being in force or in any contract, on the publication of the notification under sub-section (1) of section 3, or sub-section (1) or 2 of section 3A the following consequences shall ensue, namely :-
(a) Such estate or tenure including the interests of the proprietor or tenure-holder in any building or part of a building comprised in such estate or tenure and used primarily as office or cutchery for the collection of rent of such estate or tenure, and his interests in trees, forests, fisheries, Jalkars hats, bazars mela and ferries and all other sairati interests as also his interest in all sub-soil including any rights in mines and minerals whether discovered or undiscovered, or whether being worked or not, inclusive of such rights of a lessee of mines and minerals, comprised in such estate or tenure (other than the interests of raiyats or under raiyats) shall, with effect from the date of vesting, vest absolutely in the State free from all incumbrances and such proprietor or tenure holder shall cease to have any interests in such estate or tenure other than the interests expressly saved by or under the provisions of this Act.'
Section 24A(1) Determination of compensation of any intermediary of temporarily settled estate - (1) In the case of such intermediary of a temporarily settled estate, the Compensation Officer shall determine the compensation payable in respect of the transference to the State of the interest of the intermediary in such temporarily settled estate, whether let in farm or held in khas, at a sum equal to twenty times of the malikana payable to him during the previous agricultural year and, where the intermediary has taken out the engagement of the lands comprised in such estate for a fixed period on the payment of a fixed jama, also a sum equal to the pro rata refund of the fixed jama paid by him for the unexpired period of the engagement.'
4. It may be noted that Sections 2(jj), 2(jjj), 2A and 24A were inserted in the parent Act by the Bihar Land Reforms (Amendment) Act, 1953 (Bihar Act XX of 1954). Section 4 was also amended by the same Act.
5. Learned Attorney-General contended (1) that the right to the malikana was an interest in the estates called the Gidhaur estate specified in the notification of July 24, 1953 and on the issue of the notification the right to malikana stood extinguished and (2) alternatively, the Maharaja was an intermediary of temporary settled estates in respect of which the malikana was payable and on the transference of his intermediary interests in those estates, his right to the malikana stood extinguished and he became entitled only to the compensation payable under sec. 24A.
6. Regulation VIII of 1793 (sec. 43) described malikana as an allowance to proprietors in consideration of their proprietary rights. Baden-Powell's Lands Systems of British India, Vol. II, p. 717 said that malikana in Bengal and places other than the Punjab usually means an allowance to an ex-proprietor by way of solatium for a lost right.
7. The custom of paying malikana allowance to displaced proprietors may be traced back to the Moghul period. 'The claims of the ancient zemindars and village headmen, when thus displaced were usually recognised to the extent of giving them an allowance for subsistence, and sometimes they continued to receive this allowance in the shape of payments from the new occupants called rassoomi-zamindaree.' (See Phillips on Law Relating to the Land Tenures of Lower Bengal, p. 126). It was said that 'Malikana is the unalienable right of proprietorship.' (see the answer of Ghulam Hosein Khan, Appendix No. 16 to Mr. Shore's Minutes of 2nd April 1788 quoted in C.D. Field's Regulations of the Bengal Code p. 717). The Regulations from 1788 onwards recognised this custom. Regulation VIII of 1793, secs. 43 to 47 provided that in the event of the proprietor refusing to accept a reasonable settlement his lands were to be let in farm or held khas. When the lands were let in farm, the farmer was to engage to pay 10% of the jama as malikana to the excluded proprietors in addition to the jama and the Government was to be considered as guarantees for the payment. The malikana was realisable from the farmer as arrears of revenue. When the lands were held in khas 10% of the net collections was to be paid as malikana from the treasury. Section 5 of Regulation VII of 1822 repealed the existing regulations regarding malikana and substituted fresh provisions for such allowance. The new provisions were declared by section 11 of Regulation IX of 1833 to be prospective only and to be applicable solely to the settlements made under them. (see Clarke, Regulations Vol. I p. 71). Regulation VII of 1822 was originally enacted for the ceded and conquered Provinces, Cuttack, Pataspur and it dependencies. It was extended to other Provinces by sec. 2 of Reg. IX of 1825. Later it was repealed as regards the North Western Provinces by Act XIX of 1873 and fresh provisions for allowance to displaced proprietors were substituted. The malikana was for a term of years when the proprietors were dispossessed from management temporarily. It was a permanent grant when the proprietors' rights in their lands were completely extinguished.
8. The decisions under the Limitation Acts relating to the malikana turned on the particular language of those Acts. Clause 12 of s. 1 of the Limitation Act of 1859 seemed to make it imperative on the courts to deal with malikana as an interest in land and to treat a claim for it as barred if not made within a period of 12 years after the last receipt by the proprietor. (see Herranund Shoo v. Mst. Ozeerun & Ors. 9 W.R. 102., Govinda Chunder Roy Choudhuri v. Ram Chunder Chowdhury 19 W.R. 95.. But under the Limitation Act of 1877 the non-receipt of malikana for 12 years did not extinguish the right and malikana could be sued for within twelve years from the time when it became due. (see Hurmuzi Begum v. Hirday Narayan 5 Cal. 921. In Jaggo Bai v. Utsava Lal 51 All 439 the courts below treated malikana as immovable property and since the point as to its not being immovable property was not taken earlier, the Privy Council did not allow the point to be taken before it for the first time. Nevertheless the Privy Council held that a suit to establish a right as to malikana was not a suit for possession within the meaning of art. 141 and was governed by art. 120 of the Limitation Act of 1908. Though malikana is not a charge on immovable property the explanation to art. 132 of that Act declared that for the purposes of that article, it was 'deemed' to be money charged on immovable property.
9. Malikana is not rent. (see Bhoalee Singh v. Mst. Neemoo Behool 12 W.R. 498 and Syed Shah Najamuddin Hyder v. Syed Zahid Hossein 8 C.L.J. 300. It is not rent or revenue derived from land and not assessable as agricultural income. (Maharaja P. S. Bahadur v. State of Bihar 18 Pat 1018.. In Deo Kuar v. Man Kuar 21 I.A. 148 malikana was described as a grant of a portion of a land revenue. For purposes of the Pensions Act, 1871 because sec. 3 of the Act interpreted the expression 'grant of money or land revenue' to include anything payable on the part of the Government in respect of a right. The Privy Council held that malikana was something payable on the part of Government in respect of a right and therefore a suit relating to malikana was not cognizable by the court without a certificate from the Collector. The plea of bar under the Pensions Act is not taken in the represent appeal.
10. Malikana is not an incumbrance on the estate of the proprietor liable to pay it and is not extinguished on the sale of that estate for recovery of arrears of land revenue under Act XI of 1859. (see Mahendra Narayan Roy Chowdhuri v. Abdul Gafur Choudhary 35 C.W.N. 1233.. The person in receipt of a permanent malikana is not a proprietor of the estate for which malikana is payable and has no title to the alluvial accretion to the estate. (see Soudamini Dassya v. Secretary of State for India 50 Cal. 522.
11. The proprietors of the Gidhaur estate in Bihar are in receipt of a permanent malikana for over a century. The origin of this malikana allowance is not known. From time immemorial it has been customary in Bihar to pay a permanent malikana allowance to ex-proprietors in lieu of their lost proprietary right. Phillips in his Law Relating to the Land Tenures of Lower Bengal, pp. 144, 147, 269, said that the proprietors of the soil in Bihar universally claimed and possessed a right of malikana and he endeavoured in vain to trace its origin in Bihar. The malikana right of the excluded proprietors in Bihar was acknowledged in the Regulations passed on August 8, 1788. At the time of Permanent Settlement, the new grantees were forced to acknowledge this right. (see Baden-Powell, Land-System of British India, Vol. I. pp. 516, 517). The Bihar Board of Revenue Misc. Rules 1939, art. 342 p. 166 divides malikana into two classes. Malikana of the first class is for a term of years only, that is, during the currency of a settlement. Malikana of the second class is permanent. It states that 'the Bihar malikana falls under this class and is a compensation permanently granted to the proprietors .... It is of a pensionary nature and does not depend upon collections.' The permanent malikana is payable at the treasury on April 1, and October 1, every year on presentation of pay orders issued by the Collector accompanied by a life certificate of the recipient.
12. There can be no doubt that the malikana payable to the proprietors of the Gidhaur estate is a permanent grant of money in lieu of their proprietary rights in lands originally held by them. The proprietors retained certain estates. On the publication of the notification under s. 3 of the Bihar Land Reforms Act, 1950 the interest of the Maharaja in those estates was extinguished. But the malikana payable to him is not an interest in those estates and did not cease on the issue of the notification.
13. Annexure A to the writ application shows that cess was deducted from the malikana. Under secs. 5 and 421 of the Cess Act., 1880 cess is charged on immovable property and is payable by the holder of an estate or tenure or chaukidari chakran lands and by a cultivating raiyat. It is not known under what circumstances cess used to be deducted from the malikana. From the fact that cess was so deducted it is not possible to hold that malikana is an interest in the estates held by the Maharaja.
14. In this Court the appellant raised the second contention for the first time. The learned Attorney-General contended that the malikana was payable in respect of certain other estates, that the Maharaja should be regarded as an intermediary of those estates and that on the vesting of those estates in the Government the right to malikana ceased and the Maharaja became entitled to compensation only under sec. 24A of the Bihar Land Reforms Act, 1950. The State of Bihar has filed a petition asking for an order admitting certain documents as additional evidence. We have allowed this petition. The first document is a letter of the Collector, Monghyr, stating that the Gidhaur estate was getting malikana in respect of 17 tauzis noted in the margin. The second document is the khewat of those tauzis. They show that various persons other than the Maharaja were the proprietors of the estates comprised in the tauzis. The petition states that all these estates have been notified under sec. 3 and have now vested in the State Government. The third document is the notification published on July 24, 1953 showing the estates of which the Maharaja was the proprietor and which have nor vested in the State Government. On the publication of the notification under sec. 3, all the estates in respect of which the malikana is payable including the interest of any intermediary therein vested in the Government free from all incumbrances. But the Maharaja is not a proprietor, tenure holder or an intermediary of those estates. The malikana is not rent or income derived from the estates. Nor is his right to the malikana an incumbrance on them. The Maharaja's right to the malikana is not an intermediary interest in the estates and did not vest in the Government. Consequently he has no right to claim compensation for the malikana under s. 24A. That section provides for determination of compensation payable to the intermediary of a temporarily settled estate is respect of the transference to the Government of the interest of the intermediary in such estate. The Maharaja had no intermediary interest in the estates for the transference of which he could claim any compensation under sec. 24A.
15. In State of Uttar Pradesh v. Kunwar Sri Trivikram Narain Singh : [1962]3SCR213 this Court held that an allowance of a fixed sum of money computed on the basis of 1/4th share of the net revenue of certain estates payable by the Government to the ex-jagirdars as compensation for abandonment of their right in those estates was not a right or privilege in respect of land in any estate or its land revenue within the meaning of s. 6(b) of the Uttar Pradesh Zemindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act, 1951, and on the issue of a notification vesting those estates in the Government the right to the allowance did not cease. The allowance in that case was described as a pension. It may be that the allowance was not strictly a malikana. Nevertheless the case is instructive. It shows that an allowance paid to ex-jagirdars in consideration of the extinction of their rights in land is not an interest in the land. The permanent malikana stands on the same footing. It is an allowance paid to ex-proprietors for extinguishment of their right to the estate formerly held by them. It is not an interest in that estate, nor an incumbrance on it, and does not cease on the vesting of the estate in the Government.
16. In the result, the appeal is dismissed with costs.
17. Appeal dismissed.

Thanks to a group of hard-working people, Wildcat Road is one step closer to becoming the pristine landscape it once was.
Last week, tons of waste and garbage was removed from one of the prettiest one-mile stretches of road in Anderson County.
I want to offer a sincere thank you to everyone who made possible this major cleanup project.
We've perfected the art of being offended.
We love perfecting the art of being offended.
People stumble all over themselves — and their computer keys — to be the first to offer their shock, disgust and outrage.
Pick a war, any war: the war on Christmas, the war on women, even the ridiculously hyped presidential election doggie wars.
Pick a side, and get your fake rage on.
I suppose it's how you can remind yourself of your own humanity, that at least you're not as bad as that guy.
Sweat stinging my eyes and breathing super-heated air, I exited a burning house last Saturday morning with a long-held belief firmly intact: Firefighters are absolutely out of their ever-lovin' minds.
Anderson County Fire Chief Mike Barnes invited me to a house burning that morning near the Four Roses Distillery, saying that I could get a taste of what it's like to be inside of a burning building.
May is just around the corner. I don't know about you, but my engines are revving and it's about time to let the clutch out.
I've been working outside every possible moment, trying to get projects done before I get busier than a three-legged cat in the sand box.
The frost nipped my beans on the night before we were supposed to get frost and killed off most of my early squash. I really wanted the beans to make it and they may yet, but I'm replanting.

You ask if something is bugging me, and I'll say there is.
Have you driven down the Blue Grass Parkway? It is an eyesore from exit 48 toward the Lawrenceburg exit. The trees on the side of the Parkway have just been butchered and hacked up. It looks like a tornado went through there.
It's shameful. What is it, laziness that they can't do better than this?
It's ugly!
Also, a lot of people were hit by tornadoes this year. Suppose they drive down the Parkway — big reminder, wouldn't you say?
The USDA low cost food plan allows 40 percent of the budget for vegetables and fruits.
The plan calls for 2 – 3.5 cups of vegetables per day per person and 1.5 to 2.5 cups of fruits. The amount depends on the age of the individual.
The USDA plan calls for more vegetables and fruits than what people currently eat. I challenge you to look at your food budget to determine what percent you spend on fruits and vegetables.
To the editor:
The most shocking part of the story about Rodney Goodlett ("Insurer threatens to leave town, may run for mayor" in last week's paper) was not about who had to buy a business license to get the city's insurance contract, but the fact that the city of Lawrenceburg had no more loyalty to those buying licenses and paying taxes than to give the contract to some out of town people.
I am sure the answer would be, "Well, we saved money."
A group of taxpayers had a few questions for the library board.
And they wanted answers — about the tax rate, the potential expansion, the way trustees are appointed to serve this special taxing district.
But is the library board listening?
Trustee Amy Kennedy, president of the board, wondered if the board should reconsider its plans for expansion following an hour of being peppered with questions from these concerned citizens.
After all, she said, even just talking about building expansion has proven to be controversial.

See, I told you last year what needed to be done!
I'm gonna get a bit political here. These words of wisdom just came to my attention, so I wanted to bring them to yours, the viewer:
Our president said each one of us would get $300.
If you spend that money at Wal-Mart, stocking up on cleaning supplies, all the money will go to China.
If you spend it on gasoline(which is ridiculously inflated), it will all go to the Middle East or Hugo Chavez.
The way I see it, we need to keep that money here in America, so the only way to keep that money here at home is to invest in California wine or spend it on prostitution. These are the only businesses still in the U.S.
Have a Good Weekend!

Brody B. Uddenberg –
- I was born in White Rock General Hospital in 1994. I'm a middle child with two brothers, older one is 29, and the younger one 19. My father moved to Nanaimo in 2001 bringing me and my brothers along. I began playing football at 13 years old in grade 8 at Nanaimo District Secondary School. Graduated high school in 2012 and moved to Victoria.
- I began playing for the Westshore Rebels in 2012 and worked in construction as an Ironworker for 3 years before deciding it was time to go to school. I have been attending Camosun College for 2 years in the Sport Management program.
- Flag Football was my first organized sport experience in grade 7 and it stuck ever since. I was supposed to go to high school at Woodlands Secondary, but instead went through the process of out of catchment placement to go to NDSS and play football. I played my first season of tackle football in Grade 8 and played at Defensive Tackle and Right Guard. Grade 9 I was moved to Running Back and Middle Linebacker and even played up on the senior team throughout most of the season. I played for both my junior team and the schools senior team for two years. Once a senior myself, I was moved to Outside Linebacker and still played Running back. Grade 11 my team won the high schools first semi-final game. Also in grade 11, I coached the junior bantam team during their Spring season. In my senior season, Brody's team won their divisions provincial championship for the first time at NDSS.
Westshore Rebels
- After graduating in 2012, I moved to Victoria to play for the Westshore Rebels. Played my first year with the team as a blocking Fullback, and was part of the RB duo that was dubbed "the Chopsticks" (because it was me and a Vietnamese guy). I sat out my second season with the team after a camp that saw me playing the same role. 2014 was my return with the Rebels where I saw time at Running-back, Receiver, Defensive-back, and Linebacker. After playing so many different positions in my first year back, I was determined to find one and stick to it for the 2015 season. I won the starting safety job in camp and carried it throughout the entire year. In 2016 the Rebels saw a huge boost in recruits and on-field performance. My team went 8-1-1 and we won the BCFC Championship. We fell short in the National Championship game but after going 2-8 the year before it was a huge success. I played Strong Safety for the entire season, led my team in tackles, was named Captain of the Defense, and won Defensive Back of the Year for the second time. This would be my final season with the Rebels as I aged out.
- My ultimate dream is to be the Head Football Coach at one of the big universities down in the states. The first team I coached was the Nanaimo Cowboys, a Junior Bantam (12-13yrs) team that practiced at my high-school. I have continued to coach at camps almost every year for the Rebels and still enjoy it. This season I was approached about being a Defensive-backs Coach for the Westshore Warriors Junior Bantam team. I accepted and had two weeks of practice with the team before I was asked to be the Head Coach of the Westshore Warriors Atoms (7-9yrs).
- I tied rebar for 3 years as a lead-hand. Started in 2012 after working as a labourer and was promoted to Foreman's Lead-Hand after 6 months. After 3 years of long days and short breaks I decided to go back to school.
- I have been working at Frankie's Modern Diner as a Bartender for 10 months and love it.

I applied to Extreme Makeover Home Edition last week.
It was very last minute. One of my sisters-in-law sent me an application that said they were looking for Virginia people. I kind of put it off and then finished it the day it was due.
We'll build a house, regardless, of course, but how cool would that be: to get a home built on TV. Here is the little story I wrote to show we are deserving. I wrote it with some help from my newspaper sister and some last minute editing and fact-checking from Mom. It is a little schmaltzy but not untrue at all, and it is from my heart.
When I was growing up in Falls Church, Va., I quickly got used to people saying: "Oh, you're Simone's grandson" or "Oh, I know your family."
Gram came to Virginia at 23 and made her home here. She married a man who built her a home in Falls Church , and she began to make the community her own.
She more than succeeded. I lived next to her for much of my life, and I never saw her turn away someone in need. Grandchildren, their friends, visiting students and many others took up residence in her back room when they needed a place to stay. One of my favorite stories about her "boarders" is about Mark. The police showed up at Gram's house to arrest Mark for something stupid he had done. Gram didn't hide him or anything like that; she just wanted to know if Mark could finish his dinner before the police took him off. To Gram's chagrin. Mark did not get to finish his hamburger pie.
When she died 16 months ago at 94, the number of people who gathered or wrote to say goodbye was incredible. Everyone, it seemed, had a story to tell about Gram's kindness and loving influence on them.
Even in death, Gram is a help to me. It used to drive me crazy that when she was alive, she used to say how alike we were in our abilities. Isn't it awful, she would say, that we have to rely on your mother to drive us anywhere. I could never point out to her that she was a 90-year-old woman who had lived a wonderful life and I am a thirty-something in a wheelchair with a ravaging genetic disease. Now, though, I can talk to someone who understands what I deal with.
And she is helping bring me back to the community I grew up in and giving me strength and comfort at the same time.
Gram loved everyone with a great heart, even my sister and me, the two youngest in our specific family, who probably got along the least well as young children and young teens. Then in college, we found out more about ourselves and about each other. Now we are the closest of all of the family in some ways.
We are about to become closer.
My brother T and I have a genetic condition called Freidriech's Ataxia. It's a progressive neuro-muscular condition that has landed us both in wheelchairs and affects very waking moment of our lives. For me, having a disability means having to struggle almost every second, whether it is to holding my head steady or swallowing water. T is married and lives with his wife in a fully accessible condo. I live in a condo that is kind of accessible about 30 minutes away from my parents, who do more than I can say to make my life flow as easily as possible. But it is far from easy. I take public transportation to my job, but it is not convenient or even safe sometimes so Mom or Dad drive out to drive me in some days and drive me home most days. Then there is the time I am alone. Every single thing I do requires many times the effort it would require a healthy person. I fall regularly and hurt myself. Alone.
Everything is about to get easier, or at least easier to deal with. My sister and her family plan to build a home on property we inherited from Gram, a home with an accessible apartment for me and a yard for my service dog My parents will be next door. I will again become "Simone's grandson," or maybe the torch has been passed and I will become known as "Joe D's uncle."
I know it won't solve all my problems, but it will be huge. I will have family and love seeping into me everywhere I turn. And I'll always have Gram.

Germany is the world's no. 1 location for hosting international trade fairs. It stands out against the international competition in terms of its facilities, its level of innovation and its broad reach. Around two-thirds of the world's leading trade fairs for various industries take place in Germany, attended by 180,000 exhibitors and around ten million visitors. The most important feature of German trade fairs is their international appeal. More than half of the exhibitors are from abroad, a third of whom come from countries outside Europe. More than one in five visitors are from abroad.
German trade fair companies including Messe Berlin and MesseNürnberg also organise many trade fairs abroad; enabling exhibitors to take on distant markets with German quality standards - "German Trade Fair Quality Abroad". These trade fairs may be ideally suited to your company's needs.
Below are upcoming trade fairs organised by German trade fair organisations represented by us.
Innovation and Leadership in Aerospace [more]
China's leading international trade conference for the fresh fruit and vegetable business [more]
Into organic [more]
Another excellent way to search for the right trade fair in Germany is to utilise the AUMA (Association of the German Trade Fair Industry) trade fair database below. (It takes a moment to load.)

A new human Barbie has made her way out of the woodwork, just in time for Mattel's various new Barbie-clothes-for-grown-ups collections. Yay!
Ukrainian born Lolita Richi is the latest flesh-and-blood being who aspires to emulate a plastic toy, but, in Richi's case, there's more than meets the eye. The 16-year-old wears a 32F bra, has a 20-inch waist, and claims to be surgery (and diet) free.
"I have a gorgeous figure so I don't even have to diet," she told Daily Mail.
The 5'4'' teen went on to diss Valeria Lukyanova, the official human Barbie doll, if you will, because she needed surgery to achieve her extreme proportions.
"I think I've achieved this image better than anyone else. I'm the ultimate vamp woman," Richi said. "I haven't even heard of Valeria Lukyanova." Ouch.
Though she said she hasn't had surgery, Richi still uses some appearance-enhancing beauty tricks to achieve her Barbie aesthetic. She wears a push-up bra and blue contacts, different wigs, and gobs of makeup, but, according to her, none of her photos are altered with Photoshop.
Richi's snapshots are captured by her mother, 33-year-old Anya. "My mom's proud of how I look," Richi told Daily Mail.
The young human Barbie has aspirations beyond her appearance. She wants to become a psychologist but admitted she wouldn't mind becoming famous for her looks.
"If I can become famous for my appearance in some other way," Richi said, "I will be extremely happy."

There is no doubt that Southern Oregon is horse country. And prior to living here the largest horses I'd come across were Clydesdales and Draft horses. I knew both of these to be equines of gentle disposition, but this was virtually blown out the water when I came across the gorgeous Belgians!
I first saw them in contest at the Jackson County Fairgrounds at the fair in September 2008. The photos I took were on a borrowed camera and didn't turn out well. But I took many photos as I was amazed at their 'jerk and pull' ability and watched them go through their tasks. I knew they were large horses, but unaware of this breed, still. Looking back at the photos I took I can clearly see that very few men would ever be able to see over the shoulders of these mighty steed.
I found out they were Belgian horses. This team would pull covered wagon rides in the area. I wrote down their names, but can't find that paper right now. But want to show how awesome they are. I love that I got Mt. McLoughlin (another giant) in the background of the one with the red wagon.
Be sure to click on the images for a larger view.
I also have some photos of Belgians on the historic Hanley Farm, but can't find them right now. Enjoy! Hope you get to meet some of these wonderful equines some day, too.

I haven't written much about my DH on this blog yet, so let me tell you a little about him...
He's the calm one in our relationship. I'll ramble on a mile a minute, get myself worked up about things, and he keeps me grounded. He's the one who fixes and makes things. He's got a garage full of tools and has made so many improvements to the house we bought just last year. Me, I like to buy things online. I have the book smarts, he's got the mechanical smarts. He can do electrical, plumbing, carpentry, and all that handyman stuff, while I make sure we both max out our 401(k)'s and pay our bills - through Quicken, of course (although, oddly, it's me who always hooks up all the home theater and computer equipment - I love doing that. Strange). He works in a family business during the day, and is a personal trainer who travels to his clients' homes in the mornings and evenings. And I've done several marathons and love to run, so we've helped each other improve our workouts.
We compliment each other well. He jokes that we have a role reversal - I bring in the big bucks, manage our finances, and am obsessed with electronic gadgets; and he contributes to our family in other ways closer to home. The last time we had dinner with another couple, me and the husband were going on and on about DVRs, FIOS, wireless routers and IR repeaters. DH and the wife looked at us like we were nuts and called us geeks all night!
So many of the blogs I've read (and people I know personally) talk about husbands who are not supportive during the infertility process. Maybe they don't want to have babies using a petri dish, or are opposed to egg donor, or won't consider adoption, or put their foot down financially. I am so lucky to have a husband who is supportive of whatever I want to do. He tells me that he completely recognizes that it's me doing 90% of everything - going to the docs, getting injections, having my body go through changes, scheduling conflicts with work, dealing with the financial aspect - and he has told me so many times how much he appreciates and loves me for it. He is willing to do whatever I am comfortable with, however many times I want to do it (or not do it), he just wants to have a child with me in whatever form that takes (natural, IVF, DE, adoption).
I'm very lucky to have his unconditional support - it's one less thing to stress me out in the very stressful journey.
PS: I woke up this morning feeling scared about the u/s tomorrow. All of a sudden, I'm terrified they will find it's not viable. It will all be a cruel joke and I'll be right back where I started, feeling foolish I ever thought this would really work for us. I don't have any real strong signs of pregnancy yet - breasts are a little sore (not much), and I have to pee a lot, but that's normal (I drink a ton of water). That's about it. I know it's still very early - about 5 weeks - but I would like to feel something more. I'm trying to think good thoughts and stay positive, but I'm definitely apprehensive.

Week one of weight training
Sunday, February 24, 2013
I just finished week one of a twelve week weight training challenge that I joined on Bodybuilding.com. (Grinning) I never, ever saw myself joining bodybuilding.com. I have been really encouraged and motivated by Clean eating and Oxygen magazine as well as Tosca Reno's blog. Tosca Reno was in her forties, overweight, unhealthy, and unhappy when she decided enough was enough. She studied nutrition and started working out, eventually competing in body building/figure competitions. She is in her mid fifties now and looks stunning. There is a fitness model/trainer named Jamie Eason and she is the one that developed the 12 week challenge I'm doing and the reason i joined the bodybuilding site. (It's all free and there are video instructions for 1000's of exercises).
One thing that has really been motivating me lately has been instagram. I found and started following health conscience people. It is nice to be 'surrounded' by other people who are working out, accomplishing goals, and posting pics of healthy food. I love looking at before and after pictures and seeing that it not only can be done, but it is being accomplished by people all the time. They are not special and if they can do it, then if i put forth the effort, I can do it also. I have also been collecting inspirational posters on pinterest. I finally took 'before' pictures of myself in a bikini (yikes). I wish i would have been brave enough to have done it 20 pounds and lots of inches ago, because I'm actually proud of how I look now! I've learned alot and worked hard and gotten up from various falling down points. This is my year to get what i want and I want to get into the best shape of my +40 life.
That said, week one of my weight training went well. I only got three of the four days done, but my sore muscles remind me that i worked hard. This week I will get all four days done since i joined the Y. (one of the days you needed to use equipment that i didn't have so i skipped it). I don't really get mad at myself for not being perfect. I already know all too well that i am an imperfect human :) I try to celebrate what I have accomplished, instead. I moved every day last week. I lifted weights 3 days. I ate clean 6 of 7 days (I shared a burger and onion rings with my sweetheart at a basketball game). I found a WONDERFUL substitute for my beloved buffalo chicken...buffalo cauliflower bites (skinnytaste.com has the recipe and it is SOO GOOOD!) It so satisfied my buffalo chicken love but was around 100 cal.
I am looking forward to week two of weight training and the great way it makes me feel mentally.
I hope this week brings good things to each of you and that you are attacking your goals one by one. If you have stumbled or lost motivations, don't beat yourself up!! Just spend a little time thinking about why you're on this journey and then get back up again. You can do this!! We can do this together!!

Departure to Japan
Philadelphia to Chicago:
I am at Philly airport at 6:00am for the 1st leg of my flight, United Airlines to Chicago. I tried to get a more comfortable exit row seat, but the seat Nazi who had spotted me at boarding made me move. I guess they would rather have an empty emergency row than have anyone sit there who has not paid extra for the privilege of opening the door in an emergency (Go figure!).
I think I should have watched the Weather Channel this morning. On the descent to Chicago, the Pilot lets us all know that there has 12 inches of snow have fallen this morning. H referred to it as "Snow Flurries". Only in Chicago is 12 inches in 3 hours "Snow Flurries"!
Finally …found the destination board an located my flight to Tokyo. It was delayed of course, which gave me that extra ½ hour to slip outside for a smoke and an eyewitness view of the "Snow Flurries". After resolving my nicotine needs and arriving at my gate, I was pleased to discover that I had been moved up to a "special Economy Class" seat. Given the 13 plus hours of flying time and my 6'1" frame, this was the first of many pleasant surprises I had to look forward to.
The flight itself was a bit surrealistic. You are traveling in a west by northwest path. Everyone on the very large plane closes the window blinds for most of the trip. You don't know if it is night or day and they serve you lunch twice. You watch a movie, eat, sleep, watch a Japanese Special on Baseball, sleep some more, discover an old box of tic-tacs in your bag, sleep a little more, wake up thinking okay that's a full day. Then…you look at your watch and realize you still have 6 hours more to go.
3 important things to remember on these trips;
1) Never look at your watch
2) Try not to drink alcohol
3) Beware of the Japanese bedroom slippers that they give you.
While time disorientation and dehydration are easily over come. Your feet swelling up from size 10 to size 12 will make for interesting contortions on putting your shoes back on and even more interesting walking (sort of) through customs. It's really difficult for old dancers with enough scar tissue in their feet to scare Dr. Frankenstein. Well. …Nuff said.
My seatmate for the entire trip was a young Japanese guy in his 20's. He didn't speak much English but turned out to be from Fukuoka. Interestingly enough he didn't get up at all for the entire 13 plus hours. For a fairly short guy he must have the bladder of a large camel!

This project has already launched.
Cryptic Explorers is a competitive, asymmetrical, sci-fi / horror tabletop board game for 2-4 players.
In Cryptic Explorers, 1 to 3 players take on the role of Cryptonauts (explorers of the unknown), tasked with entering the Realms of Death to steal occult knowledge, and escape back to Earth. Each Cryptonaut player customizes and controls their own squad of individual units.
Opposing the Cryptonauts is a single Deity of Death player, a malicious and powerful Goddess who seeks to kill all the Cryptonauts before they can escape with her Realm's occult secrets.
Cryptic Explorers has all the depth and asymmetrical overlord-vs-heroes play of a dungeon crawler like Descent, combined with squad-based tactics and unit customization (similar to XCOM), all rendered in a malevolent sci-fi / death metal / horror aesthetic.
