Nigerians held in UK for marriage, immigration fraud
Ten Nigerians have been arrested by the United Kingdom Border Agency for alleged involvement in sham marriages and immigration fraud in the past few months, according to a statement by the British High commission, Abuja.
The statement said special operations by the UKBA had led to the arrest of over 200 foreign nationals, noting that those found guilty would be jailed and deported.
The statement said British courts had handed out jail sentences totalling over 12 years to Nigerians arrested in these operations.
The high commission said, "On December 6, Tunde Ayammiyi, 50, and Bukola Arinkanmile, 28, were sentenced to 20 months and three years respectively for conspiring to break immigration laws. Victoria Adesola, 34, was jailed for two years for her involvement in sham marriage.
"Two fake grooms, Olarotimi Ojugbele, 41, and Idowu Komolafe, 34, were also jailed for 21 months each for their roles in sham marriages. In Belfast, Patrick Ozegebe, 34, was jailed for six months for trying to open a bank account with a false Nigerian passport.

Juju Fails Armed Robber
Danlami Ahmed, has been arrested by the police for attempting to rob a new generation bank in Minna, Niger State, with the aid of Juju.
Ahmed was arrested on Thursday after using Juju to beat the bank's mechanical and human security networks to gain entry into the banking hall.
Saturday Tribune gathered that the suspect who hails from Nassarawa State but was residing in the Sauka Kahuta area of the Niger State capital, was spotted by a bank official in the bulk room packing naira notes into a 'Ghana must go' he had brought with him.
However, the bank member, who saw Ahmed taking the money into the bag, reportedly tapped him on the back and asked him what he was doing there.
An alarm was raised, which attracted the security men attached to the bank, leading to his (Ahmed's) arrest.
When questioned, Ahmed, who had the charms under the dress he wore, allegedly said he had been in the business for some time and that the charm was given to him by his grandfather.
He said with the aid of the charm he had the power to disappear from anywhere and would not be seen while raiding any bank.
The suspect was later led to his Sauka Kahuta residence where the police searched the premises.
A senior police officer who preferred to remain anonymous confirmed the news saying investigations into the matter had commenced.

'I Just Wanted To Pose With My Girlfriend In It' - Car Thief
A young car thief shocked the owner of the vehicle by saying he stole it in order to pose with his girlfriend.
Tochukwu Ejezie, 23, stole the red Kia Picanto car from Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Catholic Church, Oke-Ira, Ogba, Lagos, South-West Nigeria. He was caught as he was trying to escape with it.
But for the quick intervention of a police officer at a check point a mob on Monday nearly lynched the youth.
A parishioner of the church, Sister Nkiru, had hardly parked her red Kia Picanto car marked FW 171 EKY when Ejezie trailed her to where she sat inside the church.
As he confessed after he was caught, Ejezie trailed the owner to her seat. As she was praying, he took the key and drove out the car towards Ogba.
However, immediately he escaped, the owner, Sister Nkiru raised an alarm when she could no longer see her car key.
The church security guards mobilised members who were in the church to chase the car thief with their motorcycles. Some commercial okada riders also joined the search party. They went through all the roads leading to the church.
Luck ran out on Ejezie when the search party caught up with him where he was held up by the traffic at Aguda-Ogba, opposite Excellence Hotel.
He was almost mobbed but a police officer at a nearby police checkpoint and the church security guards protected him.
The Kia Picanto he stold.
During interrogation, Ejezie confessed that he was watching the owner as she parked the car, adding that he followed her and sat by her side during prayer.
"When she went for the communion, I picked the key and headed for where the car was parked. I did not intend to steal the car but to go and pose with it with my friends and girlfriend," Ejezie said when he was taken back to the church.
He was later handed over to the police at the Area 'G' Police Command Headquarters, Ogba.
The suspect, however, gave the police an entirely different reason why he stole the car.
He said in his statement to the police that he wanted to sell the car and use the money to establish a business for himself.
Ejezie, who said he started attending Our Lady of Holy Rosary Catholic Church about three weeks ago, denied stealing in the church before.

Baby in the Cupboard
My son Sage has progressed, at this level of dexterity and mobility, to opening cupboards and pulling everything out of them. Yesterday he managed to pull out the Cheerios box (he definitely recognizes this box as something pleasant--whenever he sees it, he starts smiling and--there's really no other word for it--panting. So he got that out of the cupboard, opened the box, pulled out the bag of cereal, and commenced to eat right out of the bag. And that was all in no time flat. And too cute not to photograph! :)
He's going to be a year old in exactly one week. It's pretty crazy to think that it was just a year ago I was still pregnant with him. He just learned to clap this week, and I think walking is going to be coming up pretty soon. I remember being in 5th grade and thinking that it took forever just for a week to go by. In college, semesterd went by pretty quickly. But now that I have a child, it seems like a year is gone like that! Can't believe it.

Another Freeform Cuff
Here's another freeform cuff I just made--I love the colors. I'm really on a purple kick these days. I just applied for a total dream job--more later on how that's gonna go. I'm seriously praying about it. Non-stop--it's like a mantra in my brain.
I also submitted poems to two of my favorite journals this week: Ninth Letter and Hunger Mountain. Ninth Letter is absolutely amazing. The visual art and written works co-mingle on the pages--it's a big format and one that I would LOVE a subscription to sometime when I have some extra dough. Hunger Mountain is VCFA's (where I did my MFA) journal. They were both online subs, so hopefully I'll hear back before too long.
Oh, so many things happening! How exciting!

Freeform Crochet Foray! Hurray!
Oh, I am such a geek with my word selection! Anyway, I have been SUPER inspired lately by some freeform crochet pieces I've happened upon on Flickr and other places, so I decided to try my hand at some myself; let me tell you WHAT FUN!! I love making scarves, but occasionally I get a little toasted after doing V-stitch or grit stitch for a few days, and doing this cuff was seriously like shaking out your foot when it's all pins-and-needles! It was like a big, reaching stretch. Just FUN.
Here's my first piece: Apple Kiss
And here's the back:
I'm already working on another! It's great because going into spring, I don't do a lot of scarves--I do more jewelry and hair items. So I expect to be putting more energy into these are spring approaches.
I've also got to get working on some pin-up style snoods--I just love them, and I haven't found a lot on Etsy in the retro style I like. Taking photos of my own head is kind of tough though, at least getting them to look how I want my photos to look--might have to enlist some gals I know to be models. . .

Lovelorn Scarf and a NEW Blog!
This is my newest scarf and I have to say I love it! I started with the tweed and suede yarn, and it just grew from there. I love the weight of it and how it drapes, the scallop edge--the fringe is so cool too! Okay, I will no more gush over my own item. But I do like it.
In other news, I've started a new blog on poetry, writing, and such. It's called "Out of Slumber and Dreams" because my poems often seem draped with the mist of the freshly awakened. And the unconscious mind is so important in writing poetry and dreaming both.

The Heart of the Hopeless Romantic
I've made a few felted heart brooches this weekend, and I really like how they came out! The above is the Hopeless Romantic's Heart. This is really the first time I've produced items specifically fora a holiday--usually I have all kinds of ideas that never get put into motion, but I wet felted on Thursday and made these, and I've been beading and stitching last night and today. I can't even remember what brought the idea on, but I just started thinking about creating a visual representation of the heart. I also have the Mermaid Heart listed, and in progress are the Punker's Heart and the Fairy's Heart. I've also got some other ideas for love-themed scarves; we'll see how that goes!

In an Etsy Finds Email!! Yahoooo!!!!

New item!
I started making these cool wrap cuffs from my stash of leather and jersey remnants (leather's from my grandmother's leather goods designer days, the jersey is from a great boutique in Montpelier that designs and cuts a lot of their own pieces). I love the combination of the toughness of the studs and the drape of the jersey, not to mention I think the matte black studs are deathly cool.
I've listed a purple stitched one, and one with three big silver studs with lime stitching.
Oh, I forgot to add that they're actually convertible into a headband too! :) I love versatility!

Celebrity Look-Alike?
These are the varied women I have been told I look like (and not just once--by a lot of people. Like I meet someone and they say "Hey, you know who you look like? That girl on Scrubs (or "that girl on That 70s Show" etc etc)!
And I really can't see any of them. Here's me (when I was my natural blonde, for the sake of comparison).
Hm. Nope, still don't see it. I think they all have smaller noses. . .
Anyway, I'm hoping to be able to do some sewing today. I got some gorgeous t-shirt weight jersey recently in a beautiful orange and a lovely, au courant medium green. Plus a great linen neutral plaid. . . Hooray!

Worth Pondering
(Cleft lip progression: Sage at a few weeks old, six months old, and 10 months old, a few months after surgery)
Actually, I realized after I finished that last post that I *do* have something to say and that is this: Today my husband was feeding Sage, and he was talking about Sage's past and upcoming surgeries. And he said that we were "un-perfecting what God made perfect." I have to admit that I've thought about that before. Certainly I wouldn't want Sage to go through life feeling Other and ostracized--but I think the way I'm planning to raise him, he probably would anyway. I always did.
I've settled on the conviction that if it were simply cosmetic, I don't think we would've gone through all of it. I think that would send a message that he is unacceptable as he is, which couldn't be further from the truth. But since these things affect his functioning (lip, palate, teeth) I think it's justifiable. I guess that's my little thing about acceptance and what God makes and all of that difficult stuff.

Still Sick!
I can't believe how long I have been this sinus-y! Beginning this afternoon, the space between my ears (temples, cheeks, nose, etc) felt like that photo every time I coughed. Or leaned over too far. I'm sure you can imagine what a fun day I've had.
In other news, I will try to write something interesting in the next day or so, as this is certainly not exciting reading.

Snagging a Treasury
The numbers count down . . . 336 . . . 335 . . . Hours ago I entered search terms relentlessly, seeking the perfectly curated collection. . . I have my title scribbled on a piece of scrap paper next to my computer. I'm knitting to pass the time until suddenly the number drops to 333. . . the words "The Treasury is full right now" blur before me on the screen, my fingers hovering over my keyboard, waiting for the title box to appear. I have an almost uncontrollable urge to apply chapstick to my dry lips. . . The box pops up! I type furiously and hit "Create!"
Yes, that's what it's like every single time I make a treasury on Etsy. But I got one today, and this time my inspiration was "The Night Dances" by Sylvia Plath. I used search terms found in the poem (tiger, petals, lilies, spirals, black amnesias, lamps, planets, six-sided, comets, ego) and I think my favorite item in the treasury is the ring pictured above, by Mercury Orchid. Love it!

New Year, Better Blogging?
I sure hope so! I'm going to make a concerted effort to blog more this year. Actually, after having more time to think about it, I have since added to the list I posted to Alison Tyler's blog (for which I won a snazzy Elvis quote pendant). So add to that: 1) posting on my blog more; 2) getting better at knitting (already working on that--see photo above); 3) trying to make something happen with singing/band thing (I want to be Karen O.); 4) potty training Sage! Okay, so he's only 11 months now, but summer is a great time to potty-train, I hear.
Since I am no longer on Facebook, this blogging thing should be a bit easier--the time I used to spend on FB I can now spend blogging about something interesting. And actually I would like to spend less time wandering around the vast internet and more time creating.
I have some great new ideas for products, so I'm hoping to get those new things started up and posted--unfortunately EVERYONE in the house is currently ill--even the baby. He has the saddest little cough. But he still smiles and laughs almost as much as usual. I'll post some Christmas pictures in the next day or so (his first Christmas!). Meantime, I'm off to try to snag a Treasury spot, finish my knitted cowl (first thing I've made for myself in about a year), and play some Beatles Rock Band with my brother before he has to fly back to CA tomorrow!

On the Verge of a Serious and Significant Social Upheaval: Cindy Sheehan, Gas Prices, the Iraq War and the Initial Signs of Stress and Crisis on the Face of a Nation on Edge
Greetings to all. It has certainly been awhile since my last post, but as stated repeatedly, I am in the process of shoving off for graduate school. For all of you good people out there who are interested, I was able to secure a substantial sum of financial aid but presently find myself fighting the V.A. (www.gibill.va.gov) "tooth and nail" for my GI Bill benefits (in fact, V.A. sent me a charming letter saying that I no longer rated my benefits...damn bureaucracy...look, I just want my little piece of money. It ain't much, but I sure as shi* earned it). Anyway, enough of that, now time to play "catch-up". The Space Shuttle Discovery returned to Earth safely on 9 August 2005 at 8:12 AM EDT and yours truly (like so many other concerned folks not only in this country, but around the world) was up and glued to the television as she landed so gracefully and flawlessly at Edward's Air Force Base (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwards_Air_Force_Base) after being waived-off of landing at the KSC (Kennedy Space Center, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kennedy_Space_Center) and White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Sands_Missile_Range). In fact, today's headlines report NASA (www.nasa.gov) won't launch another shuttle until sometime in 2006 (http://www.japantoday.com/e/?content=news&cat=4&id=346756) ...good idea NASA, it is obvious there are still a few things that need "tightening up" in terms of the shuttle fleet (i.e., big chunks of foam falling off of the shuttle as it headed into orbit, among other things) Also, kudos to devildog Paul Hackett (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Hackett) who wasn't quite able to secure the OH-02 Congressional seat during that district's special election on 2 August 2005. Although defeated in the election, Hackett had a fantastic showing, receiving 48.25% of the vote and giving GOP candidate Jean Schmidt a real run for her money in an election where the GOP should have skated to victory...but the GOP had to slog and scrabble for votes every step of the way...in short, Hackett brought the funk! Paul Hackett is nothing short of a hero who has inspired the Democratic Party; more importantly, he has showed that Democrats can not only bring the fight for the soul of America right into GOP territory (http://www.antiwar.com/justin/?articleid=7009), but can also hold their own in GOP territory. I find it ironic that this war in Iraq, the one GWB and his GOP (for the most part) cohorts were so hot to pursue and prosecute may, in fact, be the catalyst for the creation of a whole new generation of "super-Democrats", i.e., political candidates who are war veterans (of Iraq or Afghnaistan); and, moreover, are also Democrats/Democratic-leaning who (because of their military/combat experience) will have the "juice" to "rain the thunder down" on the heads of the GOP and drive the Republicans out from their current power position. In other words, the very war that was a creation of Republican ideologues is turning out to a nurturing field that is cultivating a whole new generation of tough-minded liberal/Progressive/Democratic candidates who will come home, run for office and kick the Republicans out of power. You have to admit there is a kind of poetic justice about the whole thing. Since I'm talking about Iraq and this fu**ed-up war, allow me to focus on Ms. Cindy Sheehan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cindy_Sheehan), who one might call the "John Brown of the anti-war movement" (or, what I call, "the Iraq War resistance movement"). Bottom line here is: she's a saint. Cindy Sheehan has become the embodiment and personification of a feeling and an urgency that has been without a leader/front-person since this madcap war began. Enter Ms. Cindy Sheehan and we now have a full-fledged movement, not just a bunch of protesters...but a full-fledged-movement. In short, add one screwed-up foreign policy/war that is costing thousands of young lives (http://icasualties.org/oif/), plus a frustrated citizenry who feels "hijacked" by it's national leadership and who are also willing to step up and sound-off and then add one earnest, honest and passionate personality (i.e., Ms. Cindy Sheehan) and (watch out!) you've got yourself a movement which can do nothing but grow in strength and intensity. What Ms. Sheehan and those brave Americans are doing down there in Crawford/Waco (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McLennan_County,_Texas ) is nothing short of American patriotism, grit and courage at its very best. What is happening down there in the Waco/Crawford area is inspiring a nation and waking-up a country that has been asleep at the switch for far too long. God bless Ms. Sheehan and the American patriots down there who have the "cojones" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cojones) to tell the truth to power and not back down. For all those concerned the Democratic Party has lost it's will/ability to fight, let me refer you to Ms. Sheehan, the Crawford Peace House (http://www.crawfordpeacehouse.org/) and those warrior Americans who are standing tall against this current Administration's screwed-up policies right there (literally) in the President's backyard. That's guts people. You see, that's the kind of guts Paul Hackett exemplified a few weeks ago in Ohio and it's the kind of guts the American people respond to and respect (regardless of party affiliation) and it's the kind of guts that's going to give us victories in 2006 and in 2008. This is awesome, Democrats and Progressives flexing their muscles again after long last. Semper Fidelis

Whenever I visit a new city, I tend to approach my itinerary with design in mind — What are the city's most beautifully designed hotels, restaurants, and attractions? Where can I shop for art and design-centric items? For those travelers who do the same, I've created a few weekend itineraries for Paste, starting with Chicago and San Francisco. Stay tuned for more city guides.
Category Archives: Travel
Growing up, I always knew I wanted to be a writer — specifically a travel writer. I think a lot of young people have that dream, but like a lot of people, I've found myself writing about everything but travel over the years. So it feels like a special treat when I get to write about my adventures abroad. This recent article in Paste looks at one of my favorite cities in the world, Lisbon. Between its distinctively strong coffee, bottles of crisp vinho verde, and sticky sweet ginjinha, I literally drank my way through the city — and I'll teach you how to do the same.
We're number one!
Last month, Conde Nast Traveler readers deemed Charleston the best city in the world. Not in the state, or in the South, or even in the country — in the entire world. I couldn't help but feel a little pride when I heard the news, but I also thought it was ridiculous. What about Paris? San Francisco? London?
So I decided to go to the source, interviewing people from Traveler, Fodor's, and TripAdvisor about how their rankings work and how Charleston has become such a popular destination.
From Charleston's own visitors' bureau, Frank Fredericks had this to say:
"Most people who can travel have been to all the big cities. They've been to all the known attractions in the country such as Disney World and so on. I think a lot of it got even stronger after 9/11 when people realized that they wanted things that are real and authentic. Charleston is very authentic. In a lot of ways, it's been an undiscovered destination for many folks. So I believe that what people are now looking for is Charleston as an authentic cultural destination."
You can read the whole story here.
Holy City.
I love playing tour guide in Charleston, so it was only natural to write about my favorite hidden Holy City spots for Breathe magazine. Take a gander over here.

By Lee Clark, VP, Business Development, Nye & Associates
So, I'm at a convention in Las Vegas recently where I'm waiting to be seated at Mesa, Bobby Flay's restaurant inside the Bellagio. To kill a few minutes I sat at a slot machine. I'm the first to admit I'm not a gambler, and so the idea of tossing money into this glowing metal piggy bank wasn't enticing.
However, since our group was occupying the seats, I felt like we should at least drop a few quarters. And so that's what I did. I dropped in and quickly lost $4.25. Now, to some that may not seem like a lot of money. Fact is, it might as well have been $100. Not to say some don't go to Vegas and strike it rich, but I personally witnessed a lot of gambling and a lot of LOSING during my visit. This made me think of how important it is that companies NOT gamble with their marketing dollars. They're so far and few between these days.
I think it's important that companies invest where it makes sense. Many times this is tied to promoting the right message to the right audience using appropriate creative. Targeted approaches are becoming increasingly important as marketing dollars dwindle, and with the advent of the Internet, social media, mobile device marketing, QR codes, etc., the options are so vast. Here at N&A, we consider ourselves experts in getting our customers the biggest bank for their buck. We've proved it for 33 years, and we're still proving it today, with local, regional and national accounts. Are you in need of precise targeting to help build sales and drive traffic? If so, hit me up at email@example.com. Thanks!

An independent sales organization (ISO) is essentially a registered credit card merchant broker who represents one or more third party credit card processors. They set up and service credit card merchants, but do not do the actual card processing. ISOs are less selective than banks, but that comes at a somewhat higher price. They are also not strictly regulated the way banks are, so be particularly vigilant when evaluating potential suppliers.
2. Bank:
The bank you use for your business finances should be the first place you contact. Banks can be the easiest source to turn to for credit card services; many offer service packages for businesses that include merchant services. Most banks do not process credit card transactions themselves, though.
3. Third Party Credit Card Processors:
Third party credit card processors dedicate themselves to handling credit card processing. As such, they take care of different aspects of the transaction process such as authorization, billing, reporting, and settlement.
4. Financial Service Provider:
Master Card and Visa require you to establish a merchant account through an intermediary. However American Express and Discover give you the option of applying directly to them.
Buyer's Guide.
1. Compare variable fees:
Check on fees that tend to vary between providers and may be negotiable. Such fees include set-up, cancellation, and monthly minimum.
2. Get the complete picture:
Once you know all the fees a provider will charge you, figure out what your total cost would be based on your best and worst recent months.
3. Read the contract:
Make sure to read the contract in detail to understand all fees, minimum charges, the term of the agreement, and termination clauses. Some providers will not cover every point and leave it to you to uncover the details...................................................

Thank you for taking your time to view my page.
Your time is your most valuable asset. I am always honored when someone chooses to allow me to capture these tiny facets of their lives. I believe the greatest way in which we can show others love is by sharing our time with them.
Time is ever fleeting and my vision is to help you capture those moments that make you smile.
I know I just used the word time a lot, but I think we all forget how unbelievably important it is.
My name is Alexandra I am a 26 year old female. I was born and raised in Meadow Lake, SK on a reserve just outside the town called Eagles Lake. I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters that live all over Canada.
The woman who's been a true inspiration in most of my life is my grandmother Cecile Marie Jarrett. My grandma always provided me with the one thing every child needs, someone to listen. She always listened to me and I shared my entire heart with her. My grandmother is a retired Social Worker and she along with my mother have helped me throughout everything that went wrong in my life. My grandmother never judged me or condemned me and always provided me with logic and wisdom. I have watched my grandma overcome so much in her life and for that she is always my first inspiration.
I've always appreciated the arts in all its forms I absolutely adore all of the work that goes into creating a photograph. My spouse bought me a camera after a year of hints two years ago. I really have to express how grateful I am that he purchased my first camera for me. I've been wanting to take pictures for a very long time I just didn't have the means to invest in the equipment. That first camera was a Canon Rebel I started going out and taking pictures as soon as I got it. There are a lot of ways to go about getting into photography. My first piece of advice is to just start. I could have let it hold me back that I didn't have formal education in Photography. I could have not pursued, because my camera was just a 'Rebel'. I made a decision that a good photographer can take a great photograph with any camera. So I just started.
I grew up very torn between two cultures never really understanding my identity. When you grow up with two different backgrounds it can be hard for others to understand why it can affect you so much. Now that I am at a stage in my life where I am understanding that I define myself it is a lot easier to talk about. I understand now more than ever that the only true barriers are the ones that exist in your own mind. As an indigenous woman I understand the statistics and I understand the stereotypes. I choose personally to focus on empowering those around me and associating with like-minded individuals. It is more important to me to be an example and to bring light to those indigenous people who are making differences in their communities.
A huge struggle I've witnessed throughout my life does not stem from the stereotypes we place on each other, but from what we believe about ourselves. I think that low self-esteem is a huge epidemic in our world. I remember what it was like to be a teenager and not be comfortable in my own skin. What helped me tremendously was associating myself with people who have the results I want in life. I read books that were going to help me through my issues. Where you are going to be in the next five years depends on the top 5 people you associate with and the books you read. So choose wisely.
I started the Indigenous Portrait Project as a way to search through what I knew about my own visual identity. I know that there are all walks of life in Indigenous communities so I feel it's important for people to challenge what they believe Indigenous means. I've asked people in my communities to share their stories and I offer to take a few headshots for my blog. I did not place a deadline on this project and it is on-going. I really hope to open a few minds and help myself on my own journey of self-discovery.
Tenille Campbell of Sweetmoon Photography asked me to participate in her Kissing Indigenous Project. Tenille has been mentoring me for the past year in various ways on my photography journey. If you want to know more about the project I provided link below:
I was very happy to participate as Tenille really challenges me to become a better photographer. She also is one of the women inspiring me to get in touch with my Indigenous roots.

A portion of my life was devoted to becoming one with nature with my former counterpart.
It started as an effort to take snapshots of anything eye-catch worthy.
What blossomed was an experience which will remain engraved in my memories for the rest of my existence.
Life was truly splendid, witnessing what the world had to offer in our secluded region was the stuff epiphanies are derived from.
The universe was observed not through the eye, but via camera lens, and a hand to hold was not far from reach to share each and every frame.
I became fond of all that nature had to offer, love was abundant when this notion was shared.
Her beauty meshed intertwine with the landscape and it seemed as if we were the only humans alive.
Animals whom called these locations home became a treat to exhibit.
The hunt for the next shot was a hunger never subdued.
As I peer out my window, my exclusive touch with the outside earth, my only connection to this wonderful memory, is a somber pine. Nothing more, nothing less.
My heart yearns to once again explore, unfortunately the experience is far less magical minus my companions company, and the majority of the time is spent fighting off my previous memories or wondering if she's sharing our former locations or many new ones with another.
I'm certain this is the case really... it's inevitable.
I'm certain this is the case really... it's inevitable.
I can only hope to become one with nature again, but the journey to become captivated by the human nature of another will be an endless battle compromised by new responsibilities and my inner demons exhumed from recent circumstances. Triumph I must.... if only erasing the past was partially possible.

Luis Palau - Twin Cities Festival
Posted by Peter
Yesterday afternoon my wife and I went to the Luis Palau - Twin Cities Festival at the state capital grounds. Luis Palau is a Christian evangelist who has been traveling the United States with his Christian evangelism festival. The concept is based on the idea of something like the Warped Tour, bringing together popular bands and extreme sports in one venue. The only difference here is that there are also Evagelistic messages urging people to aceept Christ in their life, and all the performers are Christian.
We went to the festival yesterday in time to see several popular Christian bands including Casting Crowns, Toby Mac and the award winning Third Day.
The festival was a huge success - by park service estimates there were over 120,000 people at the event throughout the day. Judging by the size of the crowds when we were there, I believe it was true. I also heard that several thousand people accepted Christ for the first time.
Media reaction to the event was varied. The Star Tribune offered quite a bit of coverage of the event, and at most points the editorial coverage was pretty fair. Looking at the opinion page, however, showed that a lot of people had problems with the festival. What was their gripe? That the festival was a "Christian event" and by having it on state land, it essentially amounted to government endorsement of religion. Others said that people at the festival were "intolerant" and "filled with hate". That comment couldn't have been further from the truth.
Listening to the local KQRS morning show the day after the event, the personalities on the show were basically saying, "How dare those Christians tell people that they're going to hell if they don't believe in Christianity". They basically took the position that a person's faith should be personal, and never shared or preached to anyone else. "Don't you dare push your religion on me!". They also lied and said that the park service estimates for attendance were wildly exaggerated, even though they hadn't attended the event.
Just seeing all this hatred and bigotry aimed towards Christians makes me realize that whenever something good like this happens, Satan hates it. He'll try to oppose it in any way he can.. But God is more powerful and will overcome! The thousands of new Christians in the Twin Cities can testify to that..

Owen's 1st Day of Preschool
Owen has been waiting two years for his chance to go to preschool. Being the littlest is hard sometimes. Watching your sisters go to school where they have fun sand tables and playgrounds while he had to go home with mom all the time. Today, he was big enough to go to his own school and make his own friends. He has always been attached to my leg so I wasn't sure how he would do but I got told "to leave, mom!" so that answered my question. His teacher said he did great and I had to chase him down and drag him to the car afterwards so I think he loved it! Now I just need to get use to having three hours to myself. Sounds wonderful but I felt lost and guilty that I should be volunteering at one of the kids three schools or something. I think I need a few weeks of some free time first or at least a nap once in awhile! :)

Back to School
The girls started school this week. Ashley started first grade and is riding the bus without her big sis. She had a good first day but thought it was a really LONG day. Alysha was sick for the first day of school but managed to go on the second day. She is really nervous about starting middle school and wished she was smaller so she could still go to Washington elementary.

Alysha all ready for her first day of 6th grade.

Is time speeding up? Where did July go?
I can't believe July is almost over. At the beginning of July I thought we didn't have much going on this month but looking back at my photos we still kept busy. Here is a photo of Ashley and Owen playing in the pop-up pool Grandma Francee gave us.
Mike moving sod from the back yard to the front so the ground could be level for the pool.
Owen and Ashley with their new pool all most filled up. Just in time for 100+ degree weather.
We went to see Amanda & Mariah's belly dance performance. They did awesome!
My brother Cody came to visit and help Molly move so we went out to celebrate, was tons of fun!
We went to Mike's 20 year high school reunion in Parma. There was a picnic in the afternoon for everyone then a wonderful dinner for all the adults in the evening.
Parma Class of '89 at their 20 yr. reunion. (only about half of the class made it)

|General Note:
Title from eBook information screen..
|Summary, etc.:
Bound to Die' is the true crime story of Florida serial killer Bobby Joe Long, who was convicted of the heinous killings of nine women in 1984 in the Tampa Bay area. The first body of 19-year-old disco dancer Lana Long was found in a field on Mother's Day with her legs grotesquely ripped apart. Six months later, the bloody rampage ended when the ninth victim was discovered. All had been tortured with ropes and savagely beaten and raped. The killer's confession of his crimes is haunting. The vividly rendered results of his trials and appeals are equally shocking. First published by Kensington, NY in 1995, 'Bound to Die' was internationally recognized. It received seven mass media printings and was issued in hardback as a Doubleday Mystery Guild Book Club selection. This second edition features a new foreword on a capital case which is still considered a definitive example of excellent police detection before DNA.

Movie Buddy
When I got here, I still watch movies with Mom or with some friends from work. When there's no one available to be with me, I watch alone. Tickets here are quite expensive but for me, nothing compares to the sound effect heard on cinemas, it makes any movie more fantastic and entertaining.
Anyway, eventually, I found a movie buddy when I met my honeyb who wasn't really much of a movie goer ---can't he say NO to me?!
I can't remember how many movies we already watched together. Even when I got pregnant, we still go out for last full shows almost every friday (when there's a good movie showing) Friday is Couple's Day, cheaper tickets for couples.
This is our last Purikura taken on our last movie date together. We usually go to Amusement Game Centers before/after the movie to take Purikura Shots.
I was 40 weeks pregnant. Just 4 days before I gave birth.
OH I miss my movie buddy =( Things have changed. We prefer to rent DVD and watch at home because of our lil Patootee..

RDBMS databases are powerful systems for storing, querying, and retrieving data - that is, as long as you can force the data into a model you don't need to change very often. However, modern data systems, especially health data, need flexible schemas and more advanced models that don't fit into the legacy database models. Additionally, RDBMS were not designed to support the scale and flexibility that modern health analytics demand. Today's approach to writing analytics present three major problems, making their implementation very brittle:
- The SQL code for an analytic is tightly locked to the representation of the data. If the data source or data structure change then the analytic logic breaks.
- When new data is required or when a different view of the data is needed, the RDMS schema must be redesigned, potentially breaking the application logic.
- Implementations are slow and serial, bottlenecked by traditional RDBMS and reporting technologies, and limited to the speed of a single server and query optimizations.
New technologies such as Hadoop, No SQL, and distributed computing are changing the technology landscape for processing large data sets. With No SQL database technologies, such as the MongoDB document-oriented database used in Apervita, developers can easily upload new and frequently changing data with no prior knowledge of the facts and source data structure. In fact, Apervita does away with a data schema altogether. Apervita introduces the concept of late binding, where data only needs to be connected to the analytic at runtime through Connectors.

October 3, 2011 Issue
A sentence in Elizabeth Kolbert's "Peace in Our Time," in this week's issue of the magazine, hit me with the force of a Floyd Mayweather uppercut. Near the end of her piece, which is a review of Steven Pinker's The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined, Kolbert says, "Before Pol Pot invented the killing fields, he studied in Paris, where he developed a taste not just for Marx but also for the classics of French literature." This is a potent observation. It compels us to ask whether knowledge of the best that has been thought and said results, as Pinker's book apparently asserts, in a decline in violence. George Steiner explored this very point in a series of haunting essays collected in his 1982 Language & Silence. For example, in "Humane Literacy," Steiner says:
The ultimate of political barbarism grew from the core of Europe. Two centuries after Voltaire had proclaimed its end, torture again became a normal process of political action. Not only did the general dissemination of literary, cultural values prove no barrier to totalitarianism; but in notable instances the high places of humanistic learning and art actually welcomed and aided the new terror. Barbarism prevailed on the very ground of Christian humanism, of Renaissance culture and classic rationalism. We know that some of the men who devised and administered Auschwitz had been taught to read Shakespeare or Goethe, and continued to do so.
Obviously, this is appallingly relevant to the study of literature. We have to consider the possibility that, as Steiner says in his piece, "the study and transmission of literature may be of only marginal significance, a passionate luxury like the preservation of the antique."
I share the skepticism that Kolbert expresses in her review. Her conclusion is well said:
Hate and madness and cruelty haven't disappeared, and they aren't going to. Systems break down and, worse still, can be subverted. This is one of the lessons of Auschwitz, and it's why, since 1945, most people have hesitated to argue that modernity and violence are opposed.

So, yeah...I am playing around with going meatless. I guess playing around equals no meat in January and now a meatless March. I can really tell a difference in how I feel when I don't consume meat. However, I want a chicken tender in the worst way...don't judge me!
I came across a blog called Vegan Heartland and Matthew has a really good thing going on over there! There is a contest he is hosting with a wonderful meatless giveaway with all of the favorites...tofurky, gardein and other yummy offerings...I really want to win, but alas, I will share the link with you and if you win I will just crash your house for dinner. Deal? lol!
The link to the giveaway is below! Good luck...ok, I only half meant it...don't judge me! :)

On Tuesday, we slept in, although we had been determined not to waste the day away. Grabbed some burgers and fries at Johnny Rockets and just relaxed. We were going to try and rock climb, but while Bettina and I were off getting our tennis shoes, Marcus and Jason decided to, at the last-minute, enter us into a volleyball tournament. And while some of us, mainly me, hadn't played in years, we actually rocked it and won 2nd place!! Albeit, there were only 4 teams, but we actually looked good. Then, it was another night of hanging out at the Cosmopolitan Bar with our buddies and our wonderful Romanian bartender, Gabriel!! We had also met John and Joey, and they were the rest of the crew that we hung out with. Overall, it was a great group of friends. And let me tell you, being friends with a bartender while on a cruise is crucial. Since we couldn't use our phones to text each other, Gabe was our message board on who was where and who had done what, oh and he makes the tastiest dirty martinis!
Then, on Saturday, we had a yummy lunch in the dining room with Marcus. Then went out on the deck and relaxed. Then off to a wine tasting class...then nap time till dinner time! Then bar time. Such a nice way to end our cruise.
Then we went our separate ways to go relax/find our hotels. That night we met up again for dinner and to visit the Trevi Fountain.
But, we had an absolutely wonderful time. Jason and I had so much fun meeting new people and seeing new places. Marcus, Bettina and Darren were great impromptu travel buddies, and I seriously hope there's another group trip in our future. Caribbean perhaps? :)

Photo Shoot
I saw KayDee dressed up looking at her scrapbook and decided to take her picture. Then Samantha reminded me that we needed to update some pictures for the frames we have in their room. I put pictures in them before KayDee was born so she wasn't in any of them. So Sam ran and dressed up and we took some pictures for the express purpose to put in those 3 frames. I think they turned out really cute!

C/O United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, 100 Raoul Wallenberg Place, SW Washington, DC, 20024
Dear Jews,
This is not an easy letter for Me to write. We have a long and complex history together. Over all, I would say that I have been pleased with you. Well, perhaps "pleased" isn't quite the word I'm looking for. More like "generally content". I mean, I'm sure there have been times that I was pleased with you, I just can't recall any off the top of My head. Sure, you've angered Me once or twice… or more, but I'm sure you understood the smitings and pogroms and holocausts and such as the constructive criticism it was meant to be.
That's why, even though I've consistently chosen you to pal around with over the years, My decision to cut you loose has been such a difficult one.
Now, please, don't kvetch. This doesn't mean that you're not My khevre anymore or that I won't "helfn" you from time to time when you need a hand. We can still khavern zikh, but I'm sure you understand why you'll probably be blackballed at your golf club next week.
The thing is, I've found a new Chosen People. You see, the folks over at Pew have discovered a group that just cries out to be Chosen: Atheists Who Believe in Me. That's right. Evidently 20% of atheists believe in Yours Truly. Go figure, huh? It's probably no secret that I have a bit of a soft spot for atheists. Not just because they aren't always bothering Me, but also because they're good conversationalists and they don't believe in things that can't be proved. Also, they have carnivals. When was the last time you invited Me to a carnival, eh?
I didn't want to Choose all atheists, because, frankly, they're even harder to control than you are. But when I heard about this 20% I thought I'd died and gone Home. Finally! All the things I admire in Richard Dawkins plus a disposition to believe in someone who can't be bothered to drop round their house on a Saturday afternoon, (I usually crank-call Saturn around then).
I'm sure you'll be saddened to know that all the attention, love and good fortune I've showered on you over the years will now be transferred to My Chosen Twenty-Percenters. I'm afraid you'll just have to suck it up and make the best of it. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Wish You Were Here,

Arthur Bisguier (born October 8, 1929) is a two-time U.S. Junior Championship (1948, 1949), three-time U.S. Open Champion (1950, 1956, 1959) and the 1954 U.S. Champion. He played for the United States in five Olympiads and two Interzonal tournaments (1955, 1962).
In 1950 at Southsea, England he tied for first with Tartakower in his first international success which resulted in his receiving the IM title. Mandatory Army service interrupted his career during 1951 to 1953, but he managed to get leave so he could play in two European events. He played at the Helsinki Olympiad 1952, and then won the third annual Christmas tournament at Vienna 1952 with a 9–2 score. After a poor performance in the U.S. Open in 1953, he entered the Philadelphia Candidates' Tournament for the U.S. Championship and finished first with an over-2600 performance.
His meteoric rise culminated with his winning the 1954 U.S. Championship at New York. He also won the 2nd Pan American Championship at Los Angeles 1954. In 1956 at Oklahoma City, he added the U.S. Open Championship title to his U.S. Championship.
Bisguier became a Grandmaster in 1957. He tied with Bobby Fischer for first–second places at the U.S. Open at Cleveland 1957, but Fischer was awarded the title on tiebreak. Bisguier also served as a second to Fischer at several international events. Most of Bisguier's play after the mid-1960s was limited to U.S. tournaments where he won many events.
His list of elite victims is too numerous to mention and his results might have been much better had it not been for his sometimes risky play and love of tactics. Another thing that probably hindered his tournament results was the fact that he truly enjoyed life outside the tournament room.
At the 1975 US Championship at a meet and greet with the players, Bisguier asked a couple of spectators where the nearest bar was and he was informed that alcohol was not sold in the college town. He immediately pulled out his wallet and handed the two young strangers he was talking to some money and asked them to drive to the nearest town saying, "Bring me a fifth of Jack Daniels." In that event he scored +0 -0 =13!
A short interview with Bisguier can be seen on Vimeo HERE.
His opponent in the following game was Dr. Orest Popovych (born Jan-18-1933) who is a FIDE master. Popovych won the championship of New Jersey in 1959, 1961, 1985, and 2001. In 1970, he tied for 1st place in the North American Central Open. He is a professor emeritus of Analytical Chemistry at Brooklyn College and has a PhD in chemistry. His highest USCF rating was over 2400. Popovych was elected President of the Shevchenko Scientific Society in New York in 2006 and he has also translated the Ukrainian poet Vasyl Makhno into English.
In this game Bisguier comes close to trapping his opponent's Queen. Popovych managed to extricate it, but it cost him material. Still, the game wasn't over because later Popovych, using his B, N and Q, set up an attack against Bisguier's King, at one point threatening mate in one. Then Bisguier launched a counterattack, which after some excitement, culminated in a Q-sac that won the game.
