Oh yeah!
| Hahukum Konn chapter 5 . 5/9/2005
Poor Curtises. Ouch. Sodapop sure seems to be taking it awful hard, even more than Darry or Ponyboy :(
| Dan the Man chapter 5 . 11/2/2004
I just want to ask this one question: How long will it be before you update? I am waiting a very long time, and I am really going insane over the fact that you have not updated and that I don't know what happens next. I really want to know what happens, and I agree with Tonyboy here. Please don't overdo the letters and just get on with the story. I'm hoping that you won't let the next chapter be another letter. So can please update soon. Just take your time, but don't take too long. (You're taking more than enough time as it is. You really don't want to keep your readers waiting too long.) So can you please hurry up? I really want to know what happens next, pretty please? You'll get a lot more reviews.

Thank you for updating! But could you please not overdo the letters and just get on with the story? Because you're sort of doing the letters too much. I just want to know what happens next, and the letters aren't helping much. Please update again soon, and next time, please don't do another letter. Just get on with the plot.

Hey there! I like where your stories going. I feel sorry for Darry, but even more sorry for Pony and Soda. The poor guys are stuck in a crappy children's home, and I'm sure they barely even get to see each other! Darry's lawyer had better get things straightened out fast!
| Dan the Man chapter 4 . 8/12/2004
FINALLY! Thank you for updating! I have been waiting for a really long time! So are you going to have Darry find a way to escape out of jail, find out which boy's home Ponyboy and Sodapop are staying at and where it is, sneak in at night, and break them out? Please update soon.

| Dan the Man chapter 3 . 8/4/2004
COME ON, MAN! Please update! It's been almost three months! I've been waiting for a long time, like, for almost an eternity! Please, come on! UPDATE! UPDATE! UPDATE!

For discussions on buying and selling I really like the gardenweb home forum which you might want to take a look at and/or post.For selling real estate I've usually looked around and found a few agents who have completed sales in the area and then interview them.Pricing has been the big issue, as some agents are really bad at suggesting pricing. I have found the last couple of times that I listed that you can sometimes get very different answers to these questions:How much should I list my house for?If I really wanted to have a contract on my house in 90 days, what should I list it for?I found that by asking the second question I often got very different answers than to the first question.Some agents are good at telling you how to stage and others aren't.It might be worthwhile to look at (either online or in person) some of the houses that would be the competitors to your house to see what is typically expected in the price range. I'm not saying you have to spend the money to get those things but it can affect pricing.Some money spent to get the house ready to sell can be worthwhile and may be less expensive than expected. I've found that replacing worn carpeting is generally worthwhile. Sometimes things cost much less than expected. For example, I put granite countertop in a half bath and a cost of about $300 and it made a huge difference in how the house looked.

Cotendo Brings CDN Software To New Heights
So, you're finally ready to expand into a new market with your web-based business, and you've been scouring the block looking for ways to decrease your site's latency while increasing it's draw. You've discovered a little something called a content delivery network, and after doing a little homework, you now feel you're ready to sign to a CDN provider. However, no matter how long you've been looking, you've likely realized that the world of content delivery networking is cluttered, messy, and often a little muddy. There are more providers than can be stomached, added on top of a mountain of different features. With all of this data and muck floating by, how is anyone to pick the best from the rest? With a little help from your friends, of course!
In the world of content delivery, no one company is doing more to increase innovation in latency reduction than Cotendo. The provider has made impressive technical leaps in its services, and because of this dedication to progression, we're going to go ahead and recommend you give the company a good, hard looking over. We have a feeling you won't be disappointed, and may just be sold for life!
We like Cotendo for any number of reasons, but as stated, we're most enamored with its drive to perfect its own technology. The intelligent lads at Cotendo have opted to take a slightly different approach to content delivery than most, and we've been drooling over their progress the whole way. You see, in a traditional CDN rig, all of those IP requests must be managed by a massive network of servers. The size of these networks are designed to "spread out the load," reducing latency at the server of origin by delegating cached content to users in their own area.
Cotendo offers a very similar service, but with a few important differences. Firstly, the lads there have reduced the size of their physical network in order to better focus on their software readiness. By increasing the complexity and efficiency of their routing technology first, Cotendo has been able to reduce the need for massive networks of interconnected servers, replacing it instead with supremely intelligent digital routing.
This service is umbrellaed under Cotendo's "Cotendo Unity Platform." This platform operates by using a highly efficient proxy delivery and intelligent server software, an algorithm capable of managing and coordinating thousands upon thousands of data requests in the blink of an eye. Each entry is quickly and efficiently routed to a point-of-presence server somewhere in the world, but without the need for endless server mapping or redistribution. By working in this way, Cotendo has been able to cut hardware costs while still boosting efficiency, saving you (the consumer) bank while guaranteeing the utmost in industry-leading performance.
Alongside their server-side software sets, Cotendo also offers an above-average suite of analytical tools. These tools come stock with each and every Cotendo account, and can be accessed to view a wide range of statistical data. If you're looking for a convenient way to observer traffic flow during peak hours, the Cotendo software suite has you covered. Likewise, it has never been easier to adjust your Web market strategy than with a quick glance at your Cotendo control panel.
However, all of this is not to detract from the fact that the company supports one of the most comprehensive and reliable server sets in the industry. With point-of-presence servers in North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, Cotendo is more than capable of delivering your content to your end-users, no matter where in the world they are.
Cotendo is also an industry-leader when it comes to cloud-based integration. By utilizing a complex network of peer-to-peer computing, the company has increased their overall efficiency to a truly staggering level. Not only that, but with cloud-based content delivery, you are guaranteed a perfect up-time.
All in all, with cloud computing, software expansion, and hardware security at the forefront, there's simply no better way to host or deliver your content than with Cotendo's excellent series of services. The company is a spearhead for innovation in the world of content delivery.

Spring and summer are two seasons where the rate of injuries and deaths related to all-terrain vehicles rises precipitously. During one two-year period tracked by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, fatality rates for those 15 and younger due to ATV accidents spiked on average more than 65 percent from the months of March to April.
Teen drivers at high risk of accidents
It's almost time for one of the deadliest seasons of the year for young drivers — prom time. Parents, are your kids safe behind the wheel?
What rights do I have as a cyclist in North Carolina?
Motorists often fail to give people on bikes the respect or space they need on North Carolina roads. Too often, the result is a collision that leaves the cyclist with severe injuries.
Motorcyclists should carry sufficient insurance for passengers
Many motorcyclists enjoy riding with a passenger. Couples frequently ride together. Single riders are also well aware that motorcycles can be "chick magnets," especially in the warm spring and summer months.
Obtaining medical care after an accident
If the aftermath of a car accident, you may be in shock over what has happened and unsure of what you should do next. Your first priority is to obtain medical care. You should also do what you can to ensure that others injured in the same accident receive assistance.
Should you hire a crash reconstructionist?
Sometimes after a major accident involving multiple vehicles, like a pile-up on an interstate, investigators and attorneys may rely on crash reconstruction in order to get a truer picture of the pre-impact circumstances that led up to the wreck.
'Move Over Law' protects emergency vehicles
Last December, a driver from Marietta slammed her Acura into the rear of a fire truck from the Holly Grove Fire Department on I-85 North, causing approximately $30,000 in damages to the 1996 fire engine. The wreck happened near the interstate's north rest area.

I know, it's so iconic. It had been listed as a tear-down, but luckily, it was recently granted landmark status, saving the structure, and providing the new owner with a tax abatement. There are some good interior shots in the book "My Three Lives" by my old friend Celia Lipton Farris, who recently died.

Here's my latest mess of yarn. This is what I've knit on the last few days.
See the orange tweed at the bottom of the photo? That's a test knit for Susan Pandorf. It will get its own reveal in a few days. Susan designs the most gorgeous things, and this project is no exception.
The bright green is another Gathered Scarf. It's for Ms In Charge. The other half of the scarf will be hot pink to match her new coat.
The aqua is Amelia. I'm knitting the body in one piece and I'm nearing the armholes.
The cone of white yarn is Madli's Shawl. If you look closely, you'll see beads too. I've only done about the first ten rows of this. I'm knitting this project and the Must Have Cardi with Helen.
The orange at the top is my Must Have Cardi. I said I'm knitting it with Helen, and that's partly true. I started mine in January of last year. Helen started hers last weekend. She'll probably have hers done by the time I start the sleeves!
I'm knitting the body in one piece. I've put the fronts on another needle, and I think I'm pretty close to being finished with the back. I worked on it last night and had to fix the center cables twice. They're not that hard!!! You just move the knit stitches in one stitch on every right side row. Somehow, I forgot, twice!!! I fixed my mistakes, twice!!! Then I went to sleep. I think this is going to be my project for the rest of this week and this weekend. It's cold here and I could be wearing this.
My house looks kind of like that bowl…lots of unmatched stuff all over. There's yarn all over the bedroom. That's Helen's fault. We decided that we should knit Madli's Shawl together, but I wanted beads in mine. What followed was an avalanche of yarn and beads. And after all that digging, what did I choose? White! Oh, and in the middle of that, I ordered more beads, which I'm not using! Thank's Helen!!!
And the laundry room….I should have named the blog "Crazy Laundry Lady Knits". I've already posted painful laundry room photos twice! Use your imagination.
Time to go study the Civil War and multiplication tables with Ms. In Charge. If she sleeps on flash cards, will she absorb 8 x 7?

The Economist has an interesting article about the growth in e-publishing, with views and comments on Amazon's Kindle and the threats and opportunities offered by Apple's iPad.
The Economist quotes two predictions about the future scale of e-books, PriceWaterhouseCoopers things e-books will be about 6% of the North American market by 2013 (compared with 1.5% in 2009). By contrast a spokesperson from publisher Simon and Schuster thought the USA figure might be 25%.
This got me thinking, what do I think is likely to happen, and how quickly do I think that it is going to happen.
I think my gut feel is that I would go with the lower figure in the short term, i.e. about 6% in 2013, in markets such as the US. I think this for several reasons. At the moment the book format has several advantages
- Great battery length.
- When reading in a risky situation (e.g. bath, train, in rucksack one is only risking the cost of the book, not the reader).
- Does not look odd or daft.
- Great for impulse buys (might require reading glasses for some of us, but not the reader).
In the longer term (4 to 8 years) I expect to see three changes:
- Growth in the number of people listening to audio books.
- Growth in people comfortable reading e-books, perhaps more on their iPhone than their iPads, in the way Japanese commuters read keitai shousetsu (mobile phone novels).
- New formats of books, much shorter, or sold one chapter at a time (perhaps similar to the way Charles Dickens initially published his books weekly or monthly and later compiled them into books).
Net, I expect people to spend people to spend fewer hours reading in 8 years than they do now, regardless of format.

The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think. -Horace Walpole
Tuesday, January 19, 2010
Whatever the mess you are, you're mine, ok?
The most perfect love story ever? Nope. Not by a long shot if you're tallying up perfection by hollywood standards. In fact, if I was sitting across from Dr. Phil, he might listen to our complications and advise me to cut and run. The most important part of all this love is that I've come to a few conclusions that have changed me in a million little and big ways. And then there's this part:
Today he said, "we bring out the best in each other in so many ways." I'm my best self with him even in the parts that are frictiony- that friction borne of honesty seems somehow to meet my roughest parts and create a humility that leads me closer to God. That's pretty F-ing amazing stuff, people. A gift, really. From one soul mate to another.
And what of the end? Still unknown. Neither of us can confidently exclaim that we will be eternally connected though there is so much so much so much hope. Ain't that a kick in the gut? And somehow, it doesn't even matter. Would I do it again? Yes, yes, a million times, yes. Will I do it again should the outcome come out in sadness this time? Yes, yes, a million times, yes. I'm built for love. No regrets.
There was this time when SB and I lay meditating in the morning. Eyes closed, our breath coming in and out. in. out. warm air swirling in and out like slick sea lions. I was breathing in love and breathing out peace. Gently barking a command to every pore and synapse. love and peace. And he was beside me, breathing his own command in sync with mine. Different but the same. I don't know what he was asking his breath to teach him. It wasn't mine to know. Breathing each other's air, pups coasting in and out, pumping warmth into frigid veins full of old sorrow. Eyes closed. Hopeful.

Reuse Overview
The Reuse feature in the Topic Editor enables you to reuse content using direct and indirect references. You can do this by inserting content references, key references, or content key references to identify elements in a topic or map for reuse. You can also reuse entire topics or maps using topic references and map references.
When you reuse content, you create the content once, then reference that content in other resources, like topics and maps. This eliminates the need to copy and paste content that you want to reuse. Since there is only one source of the content, you can make updates in the source file and the updates display in all files that reference that content.
There are three common methods of reuse in easyDITA:
Topic and Map Reuse (topic references, map references, and key references)
Element Reuse (content references)

On The Casey Anthony Verdict
I don't agree with it, based on what I heard and saw, but so be it. Twelve people, good and true, in the State of Floriduh have decided to ignore their knowledge of human behavior and let her off.
Some of the alternate jurors have come forward and said that the Prosecution did not show motive for murder. I say, Casey Anthony showed you motive in everything she did up to and months after her child "went missing". They said the State did not prove how she really died. Does it matter? Dead is Dead. Mommy went partying after until her mommy put paid to her Party Life. Does it really matter exactly how she died? All evidence points to Casey killing her daughter and then dancing away with some guy.
Many have come out with disbelief that Casey Anthony was declared Not Guilty for murder. One of those was Kim Kardashian. Ms. Kardashian's father was one of OJ Simpson's defense team, so there are those in the world who feel she should think and react just as her father might if he were still alive. Really?
So I should be some bleeding heart over-emotive clinging vine unable to do a damned thing for myself because I don't want the responsibility of thought just like my mother? Really?
If the jurors would have stepped away from the CSI episodes for just one moment and picked up a Miss Marple novel, perhaps they would have been able to use their knowledge of human nature to determine, that in all likelihood Casey Anthony is nothing more than a Malignant Narcissist who cares for nothing more than her own pleasure and anything that gets in the way will be ruthlessly culled and thrown away. There is no DNA test for that. No way to fingerprint sociopathy. There is no red letter marking those among us who see us and everyone around them as nothing more than peons to keep them entertained and are to be tossed once they have outlived their usefulness.
You know what told me that? Casey Anthony and the way she glared at the Prosecutors when they brought up her motive for killing her daughter. If you look at her face it's exactly like a small child who is angry when they are pulled from their playing because they didn't pick up their room, or are caught, red handed being naughty and no lie will get them out. If you get a chance, watch the videos of the closing arguments. This is more Lie to Me than CSI, and I present that it tells us far more than forensic evidence ever will as to motive and guilt. Casey Anthony cannot hide the fact that she hates the fact that she's not being made out to be a sympathetic person, but a killer. Who wants to dance with a baby killer?
Not Guilty. Well, twelve people in Floriduh believe it. I don't believe them.
1 comment:
It was interesting that Casey's attorney was proud that he had "saved a life". He is an anti-death penalty guy, which I don't understand at all. So if Casey murders someone else, did he save a life or cause a death?
What happens to Casey long term? Do you think this eats her up? If she in fact is the one who duct taped her daughter's mouth shut it is hard to imagine she has a conscience to be disturbed later. Maybe she is completely pathological.
I often wonder about the long-term affects of wrong behaviour, particularly long-standing wrong behaviour of the type that a person can't tell themselves "I made a mistake". For instance, does a retired prostitute ever feel like a normal person? I know you wrote some pro-prostitution entry on this blog somewhere (which I'm hoping was just due to the book you read, and not a long standing opinion). But my point is, is someone like that redeemable? Or do they become so hardened that nothing can get to them? I mean nothing good can get to them. Maybe some get to a point where God stops calling and then there is no hope.

Shiv Dayal, J.
1. The only question in this second appeal is whether the respondent's suit was within time.
2. The material allegations in the plaint were that on 8-11-1947, the respondent delivered to the appellant 95 bags of barley weighing 214 Maunds 21 seers for separation of chaff. On 6-12-1947, the appellant returned to the plaintiff 62 bags only (weighing 155 Maunds). On separation, the chaff, which was to be returned, should have been 42 maunds 36 seers. This whole quantity of chaff and the remaining 16 maunds 25 seers of barley were not returned to the plaintiff in spite of demands by notices. The suit was instituted on 16-7-1951.
3. The trial Judge held that the suit was within limitation and, in the result, passed a decree for Rs. 537/6/3 and interest.
4. The learned Additional District Judge upheld the findings as regards limitation. It is not mentioned in their judgments which articles were relied on by the courts below. It seems that there was some discussion before the first appellate court on the applicability of Section 4 of the Madhya Bharat Indian Limitation (Adaptation) Act, 1949. In my opinion all that discussion was irrelevant. The first question is which article applies to the present suit and the second will be which date should be taken as the starting point.
5. The learned counsel for the plaintiff-respondent relies on Article 145 and in the alternative, Article 120. In my opinion. Article 145 docs not apply to this case. Truly speaking, this is a suit by a bailor against a bailee for recovery of compensation for wrongful detention of specific moveable property. Article 145 provides for suits against a depository or pawnee of moveable property deposited or pawned. In the present suit there was no deposit or pawn. That article is not attracted.
6. Before applying Article 120 it is to be seen whether Article 49 of the Indian Limitation Act applies to this case. It may be recalled that the cause of action arose when Gwalior Limitation Act was in force but before the suit was instituted the Indian Limitation Act had been extended by Part B States (Laws) Act. However, that makes no difference because the period of limitation prescribed 'is 3 years both under Article 5 of the Gwalior Limitation Act and Article 49 of the Indian Limitation Act which runs thus :
For specific moveable property, or forcompensation for wrongful taking or injuring or wrongfully detaining thesame.
3 years
Whenthe property is wrongfully taken or Injured, or when the detainer'spossession becomes unlawful.
In my opinion this article applies in terms. The plaintiffs' case is that specific moveable property was wrongfully detained by the defendant. It is true that merely because the bailee does not return the goods after the expiry of the period for which the goods were bailed his continued possession does not amount to 'wrongful detention', but where the bailee refuses to return the goods on demand it is a case of wrongful detention. Here, as will be seen presently, the plaintiff gave two notices demanding the return of his goods but the defendant did not return them,
7. Shri Bhagwandas Gupta for the plaintiff maintains that a more demand on the part of the bailor does not make the detention by the bailee wrongful. According to him there must be a 'refusal' by the bailee. The learned counsel relief on Kuppuswami Mudaliar v. Pannalal Sowcar, AIR 1942 Mad 303 in support of his argument. There it was held :
'Where the plaintiff entrusts specific moveable property to the defendant on the understanding that the same would be returned to the plaintiff, limitation for a suit for the return of the property or its value starts when the defendant's possession becomes unlawful. The defendant's possession in such a case being permissive to start with, cannot become unlawful unless there is at least a refusal on the part of the defendant to return the property. A mere demand by the plaintiff will not be enough. Until the defendant asserts title in himself or until he refuses to return the property his possession does not become unlawful. Mere silence on demand being made does not constitute such refusal.'
In that case the plaintiff's suit was for the recovery of certain empty drums or their value. The defendant, while admitting that he received those drums, pleaded that he had returned them. On the facts of that case the learned Judge found that there was no material on the record to show that the defendant did not promise to return the drums. In the present case the defence is of complete denial, that is to say, the defendant denied even the receipt of the plaintiff's goods for the separation of chaff. That case is, therefore, distinguishable from the present one.
However, if the Madras decision is to be read as laying down a broad proposition that a permissible possession of goods does not become wrongful detention even when the return of goods is demanded and the demand is not respected, with very great respect I disagree. I look at the question this way. The plaintiff demands return of his goods but the defendant neither returns them nor gives any reply; he keeps mum. The question that arises is whether the plaintiff has a right of action or not.
If the answer is in the affirmative, it must necessarily be for the, reason that the silence of the bailee amounts to an implied refusal or refusal by conduct and the subsequent detention of the goods by the bailee is wrongful. The word 'wrongful' as opposite of 'rightful' connotes that the bailee is not entitled under the law to retain the goods any Further. Under Section 160 of the Contract Act it is the duty of the bailee to return or deliver according to the bailor's direction the goods bailed, without demand, as soon as the time for which they were bailed has expired or the purpose for which they were bailed has been accomplished. That provision is followed by Section 161 which lays down :
'If by the default of the bailee the goods are not returned, delivered or tendered at the proper lime he is responsible to the bailor for any loss, destruction or deterioration, of the goods from that time.'
Therefore, the cause of action arises on the failure of the bailee to comply with the bailor's demand. It being so, I am clearly of the view that if the demand for the return of the goods is not complied with a continued detention on the part of the bailee amounts to a refusal. I am supported in this view by the decision in Kalyanmal v. Kishen Chand. ILR 41 All 643 : (AIR 1919 All 102). My view also finds support in Hafizualla v. Montague, 156 Ind Cas 354 (Lah).
8. Shri Gupta then relies on Tejram Nannuram v. Chedilal, 1937-20 Nan LJ 198. Laddo Begum v. Jammal-ud-din, AIR 1920 All 353(2) and Venkunaidu v. Appanna, AIR 1951 Mad 704. Not one of them applies here. In the Nagpur case the demand was not pleaded and for that reason it was held that Article 49 was inapplicable. In the Allahabad case although the specific period for which the movables had been entrusted had expired, no demand was made for their return and, for the reason, it was held that detainer's possession was not unlawful. In the Madras case, the plaintiff's son lived for some time with his wife and then disappeared. Nothing was heard of him for more than 7 years. The daughter-in-law married another person in 1941, The plaintiff brought a suit in December 1945 to recover certain jewellery presented to the daughter-in-law at the time of her marriage with his son, In that case it was held that :
'By applying the presumption under Section 107, Evidence Act, one particular step in establishing both the plaintiff's title to the jewels as also the unlawful character of their retention was established. The proper way of applying Article 49 was only to hold that it had not been shown, that the detention of the jewels was unlawful at any time prior to three years before the suit was instituted.' in these circumstances it was held that the retention of the jewels was not proved to be unlawful at any time prior to three years before the suit was instituted. It is obvious enough that the facts of the Madras case are miles apart from the facts of this case.
9. That brings me to the question when the limitation started to run. It is asserted in the plaint that notices were given to the defendant. Sardarmal admitted in his statement that he served on the defendants two notices Ex. D. 1 and Ex. D. 2. In Ex. D. 2 dated 20-1-1948 the plaintiff made a demand in these words (when rendered into English):
'You have misappropriated the remaining barley and the chaff and have not returned them despite repeated demands. Now you are called upon to return the barley and the chaff within two days and I am prepared to incur the cartage. Otherwise a suit will be instituted against you'.
10. In the second notice dated 29-11-1950 Ex. D. 1 the plaintiff's legal adviser wrote to the defendant (when rendered into English)
'You have not returned the goods. Therefore by this notice you are called upon to return the barley and the chaff within one week at Sardarmal's expenses otherwise a suit will be instituted.'
11. The first notice Ex. D. 2 appears to have been served on 21-1-1948. I have not the slightest doubt in my mind that for the purposes of Article 49 of the Limitation Act, the detention of the goods on the part of the defendant became wrongful at least since 23-1-1948, if not earlier. It was held in Reeves v. Butcher. (1891) 2 Q.B. 509 (511) that the statute runs from the earliest time an action can be brought. This is a well settled principle. As the suit was instituted on 16-7-1957 this was barred by time.
12. In the result, this appeal is allowed, the judgments and decrees passed by both the courtsbelow are set aside and the suit is dismissed. Inthe circumstances of the case both parties shallbear their own costs throughout.

Saturday April 4th was Addison's 1st birthday and party!!! Along with her cupcake theme, giant cupcake-cake I made her and all the other little things and good company that made the day special, she OF COURSE was wearing a Confetti Birthday Tutu! This tutu design is one of my all time favorites to date - partly because it reminds me of birthdays and they are so fun (especially 1st birthdays!), but also because it comes in 8 gorgeous colors that scream "happy birthday!!!" Melon, yellow, lime, aqua, pansy, garnet, paris pink, and baby pink make up this adorable tutu.

I've been noticing this trend for a couple of years now but I think it is finally beginning to get on my nerves. For better or for worse (usually worse), Bandai decided to switch things up with the decals and clear stickers. What I mean is… Before, clear stickers were for the little "caution" and "danger" markings all over the model while the decals were those stylized symbol/insignia/logo/model number markings. Now, the two are switched around; the design markings are on the clear stickers and the little markings are decals. Case in point, MG ReZEL's decal and clear sticker set above.
Also MG Sword/Force Impulse's marking set… plus most models (with some exceptions) in between it and the latest MG. Another example? The MG Exia.
See what I mean? This is problematic in a few ways:
1. The insignia/logo markings doesn't look as solid as clear stickers compared to if it was a decal… and in worst case scenario, it also looks like crap.
2. Cutting out, positioning, and rubbing down the little "caution"/"danger" decals… worth the time and patience? Worst case scenario: since you only have one shot, if you screw up then you are… well, screwed. Especially true if you have to apply the same decal on the other side or something (arms, legs, etc)… you'll be left with asymmetrical detailing.
3. You develop the tendency to buy waterslide decals where you normally don't have to…
There is one good point though… the model has less clear stickers on it and the little markings are more solid looking than before.
However, that point is almost a bit moot since Bandai has also improved their clear stickers by quite a bit over the years- the borders are very, very close to the design now and so it doesn't look as bad as before.
All the markings on the waist are clear stickers. Notice how close the borders of the stickers are to the actual design? But see how "thin" (transparent) the EFSF logo looks? It would've looked more solid as a decal. However, I'm starting to think that clear stickers are better than the decals that come with the model…
Is it just me or has decal/marking designs in general for the models nowadays look kinda… boring? Before, they were something like these…
Compare the above to some of the more recent MG markings that comes to your mind. Real designs, cool emblems, awesome insignias… but it seems like nowadays, we just get designs that basically amount to a little more than the model number of the mobile suit in white plain text. I can't be the only one who feels this way… right? o_O
Just need to get this off my back.

Travel Diary / Lake Como, ItalySaturday, October 04, 2014
It's been a summer full of traveling for weddings and for joy! Finally some time at home to go over some of the photos. Menaggio and Bellagio were beautiful, though we weren't prepared for the cold and the rain within the first 2 days, having packed about 3 bikinis, yet missing key items like long trousers or warm sweaters.
The last day more than made up for it with a refreshing swim in the lake as well as a chilled glass of prosecco in what seemed to be about the only place not charging a cover for the patio. And it was right on the lake! I was in heaven. It's the little things.

KOLKATA: Finally, a school that promises to make pupils smile. On Sunday when Sri Sri Ravi Shankar inaugurated the Sri Sri Academy — a co-educational English medium school — on Alipore Road there were smile everywhere.
"Research pointed out a baby smiles 400 times a day, an adolescent smile 17 times a day and an adult rarely smiles. This is an institution that will keep pupils smiling throughout student life... A school where pupils will make their teachers proud, parents happy and themselves proper human beings," said Sri Sri Ravi Shankar after inaugurating the school.
Sri Sri Academy will start its journey from February 23 with 660 students. The first two batches are likely to appear for ICSE and ISC respectively in April 2012 and April 2015.

Magic Beans on OdeWire.com. Rebecca Altman tells a story about her household with a toddler in melt-down at dinner time. She shares that it all turns around with a trip to the garden to pick some pole beans that her son had planted with his grandfather.
She marvels at how the simple act of harvesting, preparing and eating beans fresh from the garden made things "all better." The article is loaded with links to books and articles touting the benefits of involving young people, urban and rural alike, in the production of food. The connection between improving their emotional well-being, encouraging healthy food choices, and developing knowledge about food and how it is produced equals huge dividends for the overall health of our nation.
I am really interested in helping people know more about food and in helping people who are isolated from rural America - animals, plants, and open spaces - to have access to this environment. There continues to be a huge gap between those who produce our food and those who only consume our food. This gap leads to misunderstandings and false information that feeds an "us against them" perspective. In reality, we all want a safe, healthy and abundant food supply.
Altman's article hit home for me and my upbringing. My parents have always been huge gardeners and my mom is an expert at preserving food through canning. Many of my childhood memories involve working together around plants and animals, cooking and home keeping, and outdoor activities. While reading the article, I found myself feeling thankful for an upbringing that involved being engaged in growing our own food from my earliest days. There is a fabulous picture of me in a diaper, just at the age where I learned to walk, covered in dirt, and standing atop a huge pile of potatoes. I couldn't look happier.
This is the beginning of garden season when the seeds we have planted are starting to produce delicious radishes, arugula, and leaf lettuce. We are about a month away from tomatoes and I can't wait! My most peaceful moments are when my husband and I are working together in the garden or planting flowers (like we did tonight after work). Pulling weeds and getting my hands dirty is the best therapy after a long day.
This connection to the earth, our food, and my upbringing draws me back to my family - my roots. I am so thankful for them and the foundation they gave me.

It is 8:30pm, Friday, December 31st. New Years Eve! I just put you to bed. Here you are, all snuggled in tight and hopefully having sweet dreams. What am I doing? Thinking of you. The year of your birth is coming to an end... and what a year it has been - the best really!
You were born in the middle of a cold March night. Did you know it snowed on March 20, 2010? It did! I remember looking out the window in our hospital room, just before you were born, and seeing little, white flakes floating softly from the clouds.You came into this world so quietly & so peacefully. You looked all around, eyes wide open. You hardly cried. We loved you instantly - still in shock that we brought you into this world.
I can't wait to see what 2011 will bring for our family. You will be 1 year old in less that 3 months. How is that possible? You are the best thing to ever happen to us & we love you so. Here's to a beautiful 2011.

Dropbox API + Python to sync a folder
One of the more interesting Kickstarter projects that I saw recently is GameStow – software that would sync your saved game files to the cloud, an alternate to Steam Cloud Sync that's not tied to Steam. I forget where I first saw it (most likely Slashdot or similar), but I fairly ignored it – I've been using Dropbox Folder Sync to sync my saved games, if Steam doesn't natively support it.
I'm fairly sure I first saw on a site like Slashdot because I remember reading a comment later that went along the lines of "I don't see anything special about this beyond the fact that it'll automatically find your games. Sounds just like Dropbox – In fact, might even be Dropbox based, hooked into their API".
Now, most recently I've been working with the dA Sta.sh API to do submissions direct from Lightroom, so when I saw that Dropbox had an API, I took a look at it. It looks interesting – I'd bet that their desktop plugin does proper deltas of files rather than uploading/downloading the entire file, and that what I was interested in, so I kinda forgot about it.
Then I found GameStow again while looking at fonts that were funded through Kickstarter. And at this time I remembered the Dropbox API, so I wondered if maybe the idea of GameStow could be built using the Dropbox API + Python.
So I thought about the structure of the program. Right now I'm using junction points to get the saved game folder into my Dropbox. So, I thought, does Python support making junction points? Answer: Seemingly, yep. Google-fu pulled up a relevant stackoverflow question, which pointed to a module that handled it, so I wouldn't have to roll my own code.
However, I soon realised that I didn't think things through. I don't need to create junction points for every folder – I can specify folders in an app. Dropbox doesn't care where the files are, just that I give it files to store, and download files from it. So, ok… no need to junction folders.
But! How do I detect changed files with Python? I'd have to monitor the folder anyway – I didn't think about that initially, assuming that Dropbox would take care of that. But the Dropbox SDK says no, it doesn't. Ok, back to Google. Another stackoverflow q-and-a later, and I've got a nice how to guide.
So, other than the GUI bits, in theory, we've got code that will monitor a folder and sync the contents of that folder to Dropbox. Just have to git it all together…
Vote powered kickbanning – a supybot plugin
So… I'm an IRC operator on a fairly well traffic-ed channel (#twokinds on Nightstar, if you care – we've been averaging 55 people or so fairly consistently lately), and one of the things which I have to deal with is general malignants, which is generally done by kicking and banning them.
Now, I'm not the only op around, but there have been periods where all the ops disappear, and a few days ago there was an attack that happened to coincide with one of those periods.
I know this because a) people told me when I returned from being AFK, but also because b) I've got a supybot living in the channel providing a bunch of services to the channel. Now, because that bot is authenticated as me to NickServ, it also gets op privileges. So, it seemed time had come for me to implement one of the ideas which I've had – vote powered kickbanning, where trusted users can vote to kick and ban a miscreant.
So that covered steps 1-3 of my dev process. Next step was planning it out. And I really do use paper to plan:
Step 5 involved digging into the guts of existing supybot plugins – I'll be pulling stuff from the Channel plugins to write it, so that was a starting point. The code is fairly convoluted, and I still don't understand all of it, but I think I've got enough for the basics of the plugin to work.
Now it's just to actually write the blasted thing, and get it working. 😛

Please note that the Insolvency Rules 1986 as quoted in this article reflect the law as it stood prior to 6 April 2017 and the introduction of the new insolvency rules.
The case concerned an appeal against the rejection of a proof of debt by a liquidator and who should be liable for the appellants' costs of the appeal.
The appellants, Mr and Mrs Fielding, submitted a proof of debt (claiming £1.3m) in the liquidation of The Burnden Group Limited ("BGL"), a company which they effectively ran and controlled.
The liquidator of BGL, Stephen Hunt ("the Liquidator") rejected that proof. The Fieldings' successfully appealed the rejection but the question of costs was the subject of great debate; the Fieldings claimed the Liquidator should be personally liable for their costs of around £290,000.
The question of the costs of the Fieldings appeal was the subject of a costs judgment separate from that handed down in respect of the actual appeal itself.
Underlying the rejection of the proof, the Fieldings alleged, was the Liquidator's strong desire to bring misfeasance claims against both the Fieldings and the former administrators of BGL, who had paid a dividend of £1.3m to the Fieldings. If the Fieldings' proof were valid then BGL would have suffered no loss and the misfeasance claims would fall away.
It is noteworthy that there were no funds in the liquidation estate to enable the Fieldings to receive a dividend if their proof were valid, nor to enable their costs to be paid, unless the Liquidator were held personally liable for those costs.
Counsel for the Fieldings contended that the Liquidator fiercely defended the appeal against his decision to reject because it was necessary for his rejection to stand so that the proposed misfeasance proceedings could get off the ground.
As a consequence of the motives alleged for Liquidator's stance, the Fieldings argued there should be a personal costs order against him, or at least the costs should be an expense of the liquidation. Counsel for the Liquidator argued that there should be no order as to costs at all.
Insolvency Rules 1986 rule 4.83 applies to appeals concerning the rejection of a proof of debt. This rule is separate from that at rule 4.73 concerning how the costs of proving will be met.
Rule 4.83 (6) states: "The official receiver is not personally liable for costs incurred by any person in respect of an application under this Rule; and the liquidator (if other than the official receiver) is not so liable unless the court makes an order to that effect."
There was no case law on all fours with the facts in this case, however, several cases were examined:
In the case of Re Arthur Williams & Co (1913), whilst the facts were not analogous to this case, the Court of Appeal held that the official receiver should be personally liable for the costs of the case since in bringing the case he was acting not in discharge of his statutory duty but in the exercise of his power.
The court held in Re Mordant (a bankrupt) (1995) that only with good reason to do so and, not otherwise than in a special case, should the court depart from usual rule that personal costs orders are not made against officeholders.
The notable points can be summarised as follows:

Before I get into what this post is about I'd like to make a HUGE note here: I do not, IN ANY WAY, think that I am an expert on parenting. I have a few kids, and I have read a few books. That's about it. I have great parents, and I know what has worked for them and what has worked for my husband and me. I am not saying anything I type here is the best way or the only way. It's the way that works for us, and I'd like to share in case there is someone looking for another perspective on parenting. I am always learning new things and am open to suggestions, so please feel free to share what works for you!
As a parent, I am concerned often about whether or not I am effective in my parenting. It is a tough job, and I know I fail a lot. We change things when we realize they aren't working, and we try something new. There are, however, a few things I will never change because I know they are what is best for us to be the best parents and to raise responsible children.
Today, I just want to share with you about ROUTINES and why I think they're important. I have met several moms recently, who admittedly have no routine….and then go on to say they feel out of control some mornings. I usually want to jump into the conversation and suggest they find a routine with the kids, but I bite my tongue so I don't sound too preachy. I am still learning and think maybe giving parenting advice during an initial meeting of someone may not be the best first impression. 🙂 But, the next time I see them….watch out! (kidding…)
Here are 3 reasons I think routines are essential:
1. Kids know what to expect each day and may have less anxiety. The more people I meet, the more I hear about anxiety. This world is filled with things to make kids anxious. They worry enough about school and friends and growing up. Giving them a solid daily routine can help them know what's happening and give them some peace about how their day is going to go.
2. Routines can help quell the urge to act out. If my kids know that when they get up, they should be making their beds and getting dressed before they can come down for breakfast I believe it helps keep them from acting up first thing in the morning. If they know that after breakfast they need to brush their teeth and hair before they can watch a cartoon or go play in the basement, I have seen they are less likely to start an argument with their siblings or whine to me about something….because they want to go play. If they know 8:00PM is bedtime, there's fewer bouts of throwing fits because their bedtime is almost always 8:00.
When kids know what to expect out of the day, I believe it helps suppress their urge to make a scene about things. They have less anxiety, which leads to fewer outbursts.
3. Routines save MOM's sanity! I absolutely, without a doubt, most definitely NEED a routine for my day. When my kids don't know what activities are next, they get antsy. They get cranky. They get whiny. That, in turn, makes me crazy! I lose focus, I lose my cool. I yell a lot more, and I'm ready to quit the day before it has begun.
I am not saying that routines solve all issues with acting out or crabby children. Believe me, it doesn't. BUT, I am saying that I have witnessed here, with my own kids, that having a daily routine (which includes chores, activities, meals, and specific times for things) makes everything run more smoothly and quietly here.
So, now that I've explained the WHY, I'd like to explain the HOW. Here are the three steps I took to find the best routine for us:
1. Write down the tasks/activities that must get done each day. A few examples would be chores, meals, nap and bedtimes, school, extracurricular commitments, and church groups. These would be things that happen daily or very regularly. If you keep a routine for the things that must get done each day, it is easier to schedule in the last-minute or extra things.
2. Assign them a time for each day (or write down the times they already happen – like school or church activities). Having a time or time-frame set helps you know when to expect things to occur and when you have time for scheduling other items.
3. Once you have the items spread out over the day, share the list/routine with your family. If you can make a final copy of your daily items and share them with your spouse and kids….this becomes a routine. Make it a point to complete these activities when you have them set to happen and encourage your family to do the same. Once you have done it several times, it will become a habit and you won't have to even think about it or look at the clock. It will become one less thing to spend time thinking about…it will be habit.
I enjoy not having to explain to my children every day that after lunch is nap time. They are a lot less combative when they know what is expected at a certain time each day. Of course they still need reminders on occasion, but they aren't surprised when I say it's time for bed at 8PM. They expect it, and they know it has happened that way for so many days in the past and that we rarely change it.
One final point:
4. STICK TO IT. I should mention that kids enjoy routine….when it is enforced. Don't give in to the whining. Sure, you might be tired by their bedtime but if you give in and let them stay up….they'll make you cave again and may never get to enjoy the benefits of routine. And the children won't get to enjoy it either. If you can keep the family on track and commit to sticking with the routine, things will get easier and there will most likely be less whining about activities.
Do you have a routine? Why or why not?

For the past month or so I've been driving down to Oakland to train at the Great Western Power Company. I could probably spend more time climbing outdoors right now, but my number one focus is to get into the best shape of my climbing life for my trip to South Africa this summer. Its okay too because I actually really enjoy the workouts. Last night, for example, I climbed, did some rings, some weighted hangs, and finished with a little more climbing for a 5 1/2 hour workout. I'm already feeling sore and I love it.
I'm really grateful for all of my friends who have been (and will continue to be) such great training partners. It really wouldn't be the same without you all. Training alone can be cool but the down time gets dull quick and the sessions become shorter and a lot less productive so thanks for all of your motivation and energy guys and gals.
Of course I'm not so loopy as to have forgotten real rock all together. In fact, I made my first trip back to the Valley last week and it was perfect. It felt so good to be hanging in the forest with good friends and perfect stone. I only climbed on stuff that was new to me too! Didn't even stop by to say hello to 'Dogwood', that's a big step for me. Hopefully the weather will cooperate and I'll have a chance to try it in the next few days though.
I have some video from one of my new favorite problems but its going to have to wait until I get some other problems recorded before I put the footage up. It'll be worth the wait, the newness is quintessential Yosemite climbing courtesy of Randy Puro. Very choice.

There are rumours that bingo is being banned in the US, is that true?
In the UK, bingo has suffered in recent months due to the ban on smoking in public places, causing smoking customers to either go outside for a cig and face the harsh cold (not a good move for the aged) or stay at home and not play, thus reducing the Bingo Gossip. But banning bingo completely is ridiculous! It is a very mind form of gambling at the most! If you're going to ban bingo then the lottery has to go too surely? Isn't that gambling?
Bingo is a number game, based on pure luck, so really it's not even similar to other gambling games such as poker and sports betting. It's just like buying a lottery ticket just you have to get more numbers! So then why is it such a problem? Its just takes away the older generations entertainment while the younger generations indulge in perfectly "legal" things like DRUGS! Can they not see which the bigger problem is?

The Forgotten
Runaway from the Pits
As a child, becoming an adult, you managed to slip out of the Pits in the dead of night, while the guards were occupied elsewhere. The streets were no kinder, in the long run, though you had traded constant battle for constant hunger. You developed connections with the Xhava of Maralorn, as anyone who tries to survive in the streets and filth must, and they helped you learn to survive on the cast-offs of others more efficiently.
Your life on the streets wasn't to last, however.

"A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in.. And how many want out."
― Tony Blair
I had a great dialogue with a friend of mine about this obsession of the meaning of being an Ethiopian, which seems to sprawl its roots in me. We consciously attempted to flip every historical footprint that is ever declared on behalf of our birthplace.
We gazed at the chronicles; from the tribe of Kush to Queen Sheba, from the Axumites to the era of the Kings, from the fables to the controversial declaration of what being an Ethiopian mean for a native of the land.
Our upbringing was filled with the mystical and heroic stories of Ethiopia and Ethiopians that the feeling of greatness hovers above our head like a piece of blessed cloud. It is almost impossible to assert one's Ethiopian identity outside this prideful curtain that is most deeply rooted in the historic "past".
But then reality hits; why in the world, how in the world, these glamorous and prideful existence led many, Ethiopians, go astray like flock of sheep without a shepherd. Tony Blair once quoted "A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in.. And how many want out." As we Ethiopians jokingly say, almost every person would like to leave the land – if given a chance. Our self dismantling way of life is not a sign of a great nation and its people!
So, I wonder, and then what does being an Ethiopian really mean? If the historical account is put aside, if the arrogant curtain of "...I'm better than you, we are better than everybody, we are greater than everybody ..." bluff rolled up, what is the real meaning of being an Ethiopia to each native?
I'm still digging!

In October 2016, we followed 12 startups behind the scenes, to the moment when aspiring entrepreneurs put it all on the line as they pitch investors for funding.
In this episode, co-founders Meghan Carreau and Alex Payne are pitching their food delivery service built on noble ideals of making kids healthier and reducing headaches for parents. Listen Here
In 2012, the USDA's Food and Nutrition Service updated the guidelines for National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs to make lunches served at schools healthier by increasing the availability of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fat-free and low-fat milk, while reducing levels of sodium, saturated fat, and trans fat. According to the CDC, the implementation of these guidelines is indeed making school lunches healthier, although there is still room for improvement. The factors contributing to making healthy school lunches are many and complex, ranging from ensuring school cafeterias have the correct equipment to serving foods simultaneously nutritious and appealing to children.
These strides are a big deal, but many parents are still packing their children's lunches. Reasons for this are varied, like not qualifying for free or low-cost school meals, a child's severe allergies or food intolerances, or wanting to send a more nutritious lunch than what the school provides, despite the USDA's improvements. Whether it's the parent or the school responsible for providing lunch, the challenges of feeding children wholesome, energizing food are real and sometimes overwhelming.
As a mom of two, I'm no stranger to the struggle. The time and planning that goes into creating healthful lunches week after week can feel overwhelming for a modern parent, all while we're questioning if we're doing well enough. Are they eating the right amount of vegetables? Are they getting enough variety? Not to mention many of us can't even fall back on a good old PB&J, in the case of a nut-free school or classroom. Continue reading
This meal delivery service for kids is designed to introduce children to healthier eating habits through healthy lunchboxes. While grownups are turning to lunch delivery services out of convenience, this option is geared towards a younger demographic in an effort to fight childhood obesity. Tuckrbox also benefits parents, as they make it easy to provide healthy lunchboxes for their offspring. Continue reading
If you're a parent of a picky eater, listen up! Brooklyn Based Kids' is producing a fun-filled day of activities for parents AND kids at their new event – One More Bite, taking place Sunday, October 23rd, from 11 am – 3 pm.
At One More Bite, kids will be encouraged to try new foods and learn how good food is made. Local farmers, activists and entrepreneurs will offer healthy and delicious samples of their products, and lead kids of all ages in hands-on activities. As your kids learn about the food system, and try new flavors, they'll also be seeking out stamps for the special passbook they'll receive when you arrive, and win a treat of their choice from Ovenly, Barkthins or Pirasta at the end for their efforts.
Kids' "stops" throughout the day include Pure Genius Provisions, McClure's Pickles, Umi Kitchen, Cava Grill, True Made Foods, Tuckrbox, All Granola, Gotham Greens, Les Trois Petits Cochons and more for delicious samples, plus partners like:
- Annie Novak of Growing Chefs and Eagle Street Rooftop Farm, who will be leading a series of activities about Monarch butterflies and how they pollinate our favorite snacks
- City Growers, who will explore all the different parts of plants that we eat through art projects–from leaves to roots to flowers and fruits
- Pure Food Kids will ask kids to guess and measure the amount of sugar they think a processed food contains
Once kids have had their fill, they can do "food coloring" with Private Picassos. So come dressed for a (washable) mess!
And parents, don't worry, there's stuff for you to do too. There will be three great, drop-in talks for mealtime inspiration:
- 12pm: Finding the joy in family meals, with Kate Huling of Marlow Goods and a contributor to Dinner at the Long Table
- 1pm: Panel with nutritionists who are also parents, Samantha Rigoli, RD, and Aynsley Kirshenbaum, MS Human Nutrition, on what they do, and don't eat at home (and how that's probably different for everyone)
- 2pm: Tips on encouraging the pickiest of eaters to try new foods, with Andrea Kapner of Tiny Turnips Kitchen and Kate Homes of Carried Away Chefs
Following the fair, you can take your ticket to Ample Hills for $1 off a cone. If you'd like to participate, or have any questions, get in touch!
WHEN: Sunday, October 23rd, 11 am – 3 pm
WHERE: The Green Building (452 Union Street, Brooklyn, NY)
We are documenting the journey of our winner, TuckrBox, as they begin to build their company and their app. TuckrBox is an app that delivers farm fresh lunch meals to children.

Pokémon Go may be at the forefront of getting our kids to go outside again, but as any health expert will tell you, activity is just half the battle when it comes to a healthful lifestyle. You are what you eat, after all, and now, there's a new platform hoping to create a healthier generation through food and technology. Meet TuckrBox, branded as "the first farm-to-lunchbox meal delivery program for kids."
With TuckrBox, kids will be able to exercise autonomy over their diets, and parents cam rest assured that meals will be local, fresh, and nutritious. The weekly subscription-based model allows kids to build their own weekly lunch menus via an app, while their parents frame the available choices by specifying dietary preferences and allergies.
All meals come with a main course and two sides, and children will be exposed to new foods that don't come pre-packaged in plastic wrap, but are rather seasonal and crisp.

On March 6, 18 MedShare Board members and other donors traveled to Guatemala to learn, first hand, how MedShare helps resolve critical healthcare needs in the developing world.
Travelers started in Guatemala City with a tour of the only pediatric hospital in the country. There were about 200 patients sitting in the waiting areas; no one is turned away. When we later saw MedShare products in the warehouse, it was even more gratifying to have seen who they were helping.
The following update is from Dr. Carl Kihm, a podiatrist who leads regular medical mission teams in Nepal.
For decades, the poor of Guatemala City have been drawn to the city's gigantic dump for a treasure hunt. Collecting reusable and recyclable materials (such as copper, glass, plastics and cardboard) does not necessarily yield great profits. A long but successful 11-hour day at the dump might yield $2-3 depending on your finds and the market. It's hard to believe that these earnings are still above the daily international poverty line of $1.90/day… And many other people have it worse.
Unfortunately, many of these impoverished men and women are illiterate, have no education and many are tied into gangs and drug use. The residents in/around the dump are not used to the too-easily and far-too-often forgotten blessings we experience in the US. They are not guaranteed healthcare, electricity, running water, an education or government assistance. The poor residents live hard lives and they do not have other great paths to choose from.
In walking through the dump, their safety is often jeopardized in various ways – inhalation of methane gases, exposure to disease-ridden waste, a crushing collapse of the landfill, and even dangerous gang control of the arriving dump truck loads.
My guilty mind turns to self-reflection and realization of my own biologic footprint as the dump's pungent smell swallows my breath, and with a choke, I return to the moment. In viewing the dump from afar, soaring vultures impress upon me the length of their 32-acre dump territory. As I watch them, movement below shifts my eye to the human, land vultures welcoming a continued supply of incoming dump trucks.
In 1997, Hanley Denning, a woman from Maine, volunteered to teach children and adults in this area. In doing so, she was immersing herself in this culture and becoming more fluent in speaking Spanish. Her purpose in Guatemala, and in life, changed when she learned of their struggles and the problems the dump created. You see, while the adults went to the dump, their children were left to the streets.
Hanley sold her belongings to fund an organization called Safe Passage (in Spanish, "Camino Seguro") to take in and tutor these children. Unfortunately, years later, Hanley was in a fatal car accident. Her improved and ever-evolving organization thrives. On today's tour, I could tell that Hanley's spirit and vision lives through the guides, workers and students. Hanley would be extremely proud and overjoyed, but not finished.
The public Guatemalan City Schools are not very good and Safe Passage noted a continued poor graduation and literacy rate among their initial participants. Instead of solely tutoring, the organization then started their own school to properly teach these children. They also found that good nutrition is necessary to learn well. Safe Passage now provides their students several meals a day. They continue to teach children and also their willing parents. This equips them with a new found self respect and better ability to sustain and foster their families.
In association with Safe Passage, the adult women students sell handmade jewelry made from recycled dump metals and papers. Their group, called Creamos, raises funds for these women directly. In supporting their efforts you not only get a fashionable necklace with a great story but also you provide them a continued education and a family's path to a better life.
– Dr. Carl Kihm

The Home Depot guy got here at around 9:30 and did the fixes, including caulking at the tops of the cabinets where there was some separation (which is normal). He pulled out the stove and shimmed the piece of wood trim that was leaning into my dishwasher door. Perfect.
I got an email back from MemorySuppliers.com. They will exchange the camera memory card but not refund my money. OK. I'll ship it back. Hopefully I'll end up with two memory cards that work. The one from Amazon is due to arrive on the 20th, next Monday.

Globe Trottin'
On Monday we went to Arco Arena to see the Harlem Globetrotters. It was a fun family outing and Matthew had a blast to say the least. Rich's parents bought him a DVD for Christmas of the history of the Globetrotters and it has since replaced the nightly Backyardigan DVD that has been his favorite for so long.
He is bouncing balls off of everything in the house. Trying to dribble through his legs, balance the ball on the back his neck, and spin the ball on his finger. Nothing breakable is safe in our house.
Here are some pictures from our day.
Posted by Our Family at 5:54 PM

Papa got to experience the globe trotter Matthew today. We played basketball today he rolled the ball between my legs, ran around me got the ball and came back between my legs, and in for the basket. What was real funny is Ryan had to do the same thing, because we know you have to do what your older brother does. Love those boys they are so much fun.ReplyDelete

Danica Patrick Responds to Kyle Petty's CriticismJune 29, 2013
Danica Patrick has fired back at Kyle Petty after the former driver publicly criticized her ability and questioned her place in NASCAR.
According to ESPN's Terry Blount, she said:
I really don't care. There's going to be people who believe in you and people who don't. Plenty of people say bad things about me. I see it on Twitter. Some people want me to die. But at the end of the day, you get over that stuff and trust you're doing a good job for the people who believe in you.
Petty had said that Patrick was good in qualifying but not very good when it came to the racing end of things. Patrick had a comical response. Per Blunt, she said, "It's funny he said I can qualify and not race. Anyone who has watched what I do knows I'm crap in qualifying. In the races, things go much better."
USA Today's Jeff Gluck also got a cogent response from Patrick about her general critics.
Gluck was very complimentary about Patrick's response to the whole situation.
You really do have to give Patrick a ton of credit in this situation. She's had to deal with constant criticism about how she's not good enough to drive in NASCAR or the IndyCar Series. Clearly, she's learned how to deftly deal with all of the vitriol while not saying something she might later regret.
Patrick could have easily called the whole situation ironic, since this was started by Petty of all people. He is, of course, the son or Richard Petty, and that's about it. Most of his success stemmed from the fact that he was the progeny of "The King." The younger Petty had eight wins and 52 top-five finishes in 829 career races.
Instead, Patrick chose to deflect what Petty said and is moving on. It's unlikely, though, that this situation will die down anytime soon, as what Petty said is likely what many fans of NASCAR have believed and will continue to believe.

Baby Kam
Indiana, USA
We had only just begun to love you when we discovered that we'd lost you. Our hearts broke that day, but I am truly grateful that I carried you, if only for a short time. I know you are up there playing with Grandmom and making her smile. I look forward to seeing you both again.
We love you, precious Baby Kam,
always & forever. Love,
Mommy, Daddy, and your little sisters Katie & Maddie.
