Full In the Heart of the Sea in HD Format with movie synopsis "In the winter of 1820, the New England whaling ship Essex was assaulted by something no one could believe: a whale of mammoth size and will, and an almost human sense of vengeance. The real-life maritime disaster would inspire Herman Melville's Moby-Dick. But that told only half the story. "Heart of the Sea" reveals the encounter's harrowing aftermath, as the ship's surviving crew is pushed to their limits and forced to do the unthinkable to stay alive. Braving storms, starvation, panic and despair, the men will call into question their deepest beliefs, from the value of their lives to the morality of their trade, as their captain searches for direction on the open sea and his first mate still seeks to bring the great whale down." in top video format.

The plan is suggesting creation of missing index (ProcessedDate, MessageType).
I have an index on (ProcessedDate, MessageType, FlagBypassdispatcher). Why is it unable to use that?
Does SQL server index null columns?
And I just wanted to add that if I force the query to use the index, IO and elapsed statistics seem much better.
Clustered index scan performs about 8479 logical reads and takes 33 milliseconds
Forcing it to use the index on (ProcessedDate, MessageType, FlagBypassdispatcher), it performs 5 logical reads and takes 4 milliseconds...
So, what's up with SQL Server? Am I missing something?
By Peachy 16 asked Jul 01, 2015 at 02:47 PM
You're using
This is especially true when estimates are off - notice that SQL Server estimated over 2,000 rows would be returned, and this is why it chose the plan it chose, because 2,000+ lookups would be more costly. It did not know when formulating the plan that you would only actually have 8 rows at runtime.
This could be because (a) the stats really are out of date, or (b) a plan was initially cached based on different parameter values. In your case we can rule out (b) because on the Parameters tab we see that the same parameter value was compiled with the plan. And it may be (a) or it may be partly due to the "inequality effect" touched on here.
If this is a common predicate, you may want to consider a filtered index that has both predicates.
You could also consider outputting fewer columns in the select list if you in fact do not need all columns; this will make using the index more compelling. But first and foremost you should be sure that statistics are up to date so that SQL Server might get the right estimates.

The inequality effect is interesting. Any known workarounds for it? I checked the statistics for the Index and it only has histograms based on the ProcessedDate column. Why is that when the index is based on 3 columns? I think this is where it got the approximation of 2,000 rows
I am trying to include the results of dbcc show_statistics but it won't let me post the comment when I do. And I can't attach it as an answer because I can't answer twice.... Here is a small snippet of it:
Name Updated Rows Rows Sampled Steps Density Average key length String Index Filter Expression Unfiltered Rows

Missing index suggestions are hints rather than firm recommendations. When the optimizer attempts to match query predicates to indexes and does not find an ideal one, it may generate a suggestion. These suggestions are opportunistic and not based on anything like a full analysis. There are also cases where internal limitations, or a lack of information, leads to a "missing index" being suggested that is redundant or just not very useful.
In your case, the ideal seek would actually be two separate seeks in one. The first would be on
Unfortunately, the optimizer cannot currently generate a multi-part seek combining an equality with an inequality, unless an
I recommend that people treat missing index notifications as a flag that the indexing on the table might be improved somehow. A proper analysis by the DBA is needed in almost all cases because the suggested index is unlikely to be the best possible, or broadly useful for a range of queries.
Yes indexes can be built on nullable columns, and yes the optimizer can build plans that seek to a null. This was not possible in very early versions of SQL Server, but it has been the case since at least SQL Server 2000.
Yes. The optimizer likely considered using the existing index with lookups to fetch the uncovered columns but rejected the idea for cost reasons. The estimated number of rows that match the two predicates is much higher than the actual value. For 8 rows, no doubt the seek + lookup is more efficient. If the optimizer had known that, it would have chosen the seek.
That blog post is not an entirely complete analysis. I added a comment there, but it is in the queue for moderation. Essentially, the plan in that example was subject to simple parameterization, leading to a dynamic seek plan. Anyway, it is not directly relevant to your question.
The statistics associated with an index only ever have a histogram for the leading column of the index. This is by design. The statistics do capture average density for all column combinations, but this is only useful where all predicates in the query are equality comparisons (an yours are not).
The 2,000 row estimate is based on the number of rows for which
As Aaron mentioned, the best way to improve the estimates for this query (and so, probably, the execution plan) is by providing a better index, reducing the number of columns returned, and/or providing filtered statistics. The best option for you depends on your knowledge of the wider workload.
For example, the following filtered statistics would probably improve the estimates and produce a better plan, without having to create a new index:
Or, you could get the filtered stats for free with a filtered index that would also avoid the sort, like:
Alternatively, you may decide that an index or forceseek hint is the appropriate action.

Range of updates from the event.
Tour of the Reservoir Elite Road Series
On an incredibly tough day with the field decimated by wind from kilometer 0, we have four riders still in the race ready to start another 180km stage tomorrow!
Results starting to come in from Tour of the Reservoir. In appaling conditions including snow and high winds both Ben Rowe and Alex Luhrs finished in the top 40, mixing with the best pros in Britain. Congratulations to both of them.
Alex Luhrs 37th overall in the Tour of the Reservoir, a fantastic result in his first Elite Road Series, with Ben Rowe 39th, an equally fantastic result in his first year at this level, particularly considering the route and the conditions.

According to Friends of Scotland.gov.uk, "The Vikings stuffed their faces with vast quantities of food and drink after which they stumbled off into the winter night to light a huge bonfire in the goddess' honour. Today, fire and light plays a major part in Yule celebrations in many areas of Scotland from Biggar to Shetland.
When William of Normandy conquered England in 1066 the English Princess Margaret fled north and was shipwrecked on the Scottish coast. Her Christian influence helped turn the previously pagan Yuletide season into a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ."
They celebrate the Traditional Scottish Christmas on the 25th December.The day before is called Christmas Eve, and the day after (26th December) is called Boxing Day (also known as St. Stephen's Day (when Good King Wenceslas looked out). 'Good King Wenceslas looked out, On the Feast of Stephen………..' This day is a National Holiday, not just in Scotland but in the whole of the UK.
The traditional Scottish Christmas Day MenuSeeing a beautifully-laid table for Christmas Dinner is a sight to behold. One tradition we still have is the use of Christmas Crackers. These are pulled, and create a wee 'bang' and inside is a variety trinkets such as a joke, a wee toy or gift (depends on the quality of the cracker) and the inevitable paper hat. EVERYONE (yes, I thin almost everyone)sits though Christmas Dinner wearing a silly paper hat! (see the picture of the Christmas Cracker with the mince pies)Over the years many main dishes have become traditional for Christmas Dinner. Roast Turkey is still in my opinion the most popular, but whether in a family home, restaurant or Hotel, many other dishes are often on the menu.
Starters: Perhaps it's because of the cold weather, but soup is often served as a starter. It could be Cock O Leekie Soup.

Los Angeles-based non-profit Global Inheritance, which debuted the Energy FACTory at Coachella 2007, returns to Indio next week with a new look, live DJ's, live TV, and numerous activities and extras—all powered by wind, solar power, human-generated power, biofuels, and ethanol. The whole FACTory—located just inside the main entrance to the venue, will be towered over by a massive wind-powered 40-foot clock. So to paraphrase Holden Caulfield, meet us under the Clock Tower at Coachella and get your environmental chops on.
Global Inheritance's Energy FACTory focuses on the interactive education and explanation of the major renewable energy sources—and encourages concert-goers nationwide to minimize their environmental footprint going to shows. Last year's factory included the Tour de Coachella stationary bike-powered cell phone and computer charging exhibit, an ethanol Jiffy Pop Tree, solar-powered misters/lights, a wind powered light box, alternative energy demos, the DJ "Portal Potty," alternative energy screen printing and electric car conversions. This year, keep your eye out for bike-powered misting fans, a solar powered DJ station, live conversions of vegetable oil to biodiesel, live eco-friendly screen printing, an art and music exhibit featuring solar power and painted mannequins, plus many more surprises.
Also this year, Global Inheritance, Amtrak and the Coachella Music and Arts Festival will make it easy on the environment, the wallet and the psyche for 500 festival-goers getting to and from Coachella with the Coachella Express—a FREE train taking campers to and from the Festival. With the round trip cost of gas to and from Indio alone costing in excess of $50, the Coachella Express bypasses the mind-numbing traffic to and from the desert. It's the first time EVER that a music festival has chartered a free train for festival goers. Global Inheritance aims to reintroduce the train experience in the West, lower the number of cars on the road, and turn on those who have never traveled on tracks. Note: the Coachella Express is SOLD OUT. For more details go to: http://www.coachella.com/visitors/amtrak.
For the great many fans still driving, remember Carpoolchella, which offers those riding four or more to a car the chance to win lifetime VIP passes to Coachella, plus tons of other cool prizes. This year, we'll be picking winners every hour, so go to http://coachella.com/event/Carpooling to print out your very own Carpoolchella window sign.
Lastly, Global Inheritance will exhibit the TRASHed Art of Recycling, where artists have decorated, deconstructed and reinterpreted 96-gallon wheeled recycling bins. At the TRASHed Recycling Store, Global Inheritance will reprise its popular 10-for-1 exchange—offering a free bottle of water for every ten empties fans collect on the Festival grounds.

Banana Bread Cobbler
Banana Bread Cobbler-adapted from Meal Planning with Connie
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1/4 cup melted butter
4 ripe bananas, sliced
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup uncooked oatmeal(I used half old fashioned, half quick)
1/4 cup butter, softened(I actually melted mine)
Preheat oven to 375. Mix together bread ingredients except for bananas. Place in greased 11x7 pan. Place sliced bananas on top. Mix topping together and sprinkle over the top of bananas. Place in oven and cook for 40 mins.
**I did end up cooking this it seemed like forever. But I was cooking it at a lower temperture. I thought it was done, but it still seemed gooey(although the toothpick came out clean). I have now gathered it is supposed to be soft and not cakey like.The couple of bites I've had it seems really sweet, so I will cut down the sugar (even more) if I make it again. You can also make a glaze to put over the top, I figured there was enough sugar in it already! I also made it in a 9 inch cake pan, if you do this make sure you put a pan under the cake pan as some of mine bubbled out. It also seemed like a lot of streusal topping.

Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: half marathon, intervals, kaiser permanente half marathon, marathon training, rain, tempo run
There's been a whole lot of NOTHING to report lately. It's been raining in San Francisco for like, 15 days straight or something. This has limited my running somewhat, but I've still managed to get in every scheduled run. I don't mind running in San Francisco rain (read: fog, mist), but it's just been a huge downpour every day. My evening run tonight was intended to be a gym/treadmill visit, but they were all occupied so I gave up and went to the track in the rain.
I've had a few good runs lately. I did an 8 mile tempo run this week (in the drizzle) at 9:30 per mile, and I managed to keep up the pace and still end feeling good! This has me optimistic about my speed improvement. My intervals tonight were good too – instead of the 1 mile and 1ks that have been on schedule lately, I was greeted by 5 x (2 min fast, 2 min easy) plus warm-up/cool-down. How awesome is that? I love 400s (approx. my 2 min distance) so much more than longer intervals.
Lately I've noticed it's taking longer and longer for my body to "kick in" on long runs. During training last year, I'd usually get 3-4 miles into a long run before I'd start to feel good. The last 3 runs or so I've gotten all the way to 6 miles before my body finally says "OK, this feels good, no need to quit anytime soon." This could be my body adapting to marathon training? Or maybe just ill-timed breakfast and hydration on Sunday mornings? We'll see how this changes in the next 3 months.
On tap this Sunday: the Kaiser Permanente Half Marathon in San Francisco. The course is really nice – Golden Gate Park, the Panhandle, and Great Highway – plus it's my running partner's VERY FIRST RACE! I have no doubt she'll cross the finish line. I plan on sticking with her the whole race, so I'm especially curious to see what our time ends up being. We've been training at around 10:30 per mile for long runs, and I have NO IDEA how fast she'll be able to run on race day. I suspect secretly that she's faster than me. My PR (2:11:45) was at a 10:04 pace, so it's not outside the realm of possibility that we could be speedy and come close or surpass that that! Regardless, our only goal is to finish and kick some ass.

do you remember......
...how you felt when you started your blog? A few weeks ago when I celebrated my one year anniversary, I started thinking about the day I wrote my first post. I remember clicking on publish, looking at what I had written and thinking, "Will anyone ever read this?" At the time I had two friends that blogged ...that's it... two. No one in my family blogged either. So, how was anyone going to find me....the new blogger on the block?
I went to the two blogs I knew about and started visiting around leaving comments and in a few days.... I had my first comment!!! I can't tell you how excited I was. Rebecca will always have a special place in my heart for that wonderful surprise! Through the year I have met more of you and, as I have told you before, you are a delightful blessing in my life!
Anyway, I said all that to say this.....on my anniversary, I was thinking..."How could I go about finding new bloggers?" I would love to encourage them in their new endeavor......just as all of you have encouraged me. Well, I found one yesterday! She left a comment on another blog and I decided to visit her. She began blogging in January. Her name is Pam and she calls her place Hummingbirds and Lace. So, drop by and say hello..... I know your visit would be a blessing to her! She'll be so surprised!! :-)
P.S. Update on baby: improving slightly everyday....will probably be in hospital until next week. Pray that she will sleep and that her enzymes will multiply.... that is what she needs to improve more quickly. Thanks for your concern...her grandmother is very grateful for all of your prayers!
7 comments :
I can relate to your feelings ... I can hardly believe I've blogged for almost 2 1/2 years now... and what has surprised me is the friends one can make in this way. I only wish I had more time ... there are so many wonderful writers.ReplyDelete
You have been an encouragement to me too.
Praising the Lord for progress - and answered prayers. Excited to "meet" a new blogger - thanks for link. I hope to begin blogging again in the next week or so....ReplyDelete
Have a wonderful weekend:)
Happy 1st Anniversary.ReplyDelete
Yes, the same thing happened to me but it took me the longest time to leave a comment. I was scared to death to leave a comment. Then it started to happen.ReplyDelete
I am so glad you found me.
You have blessed me so much.
So glad that the baby is improving. We are all glad that you decided to start I blog, and I will be visiting the new blogger. A rattlesnake? Your grandson? Now that is a scary thing! So happy that one is gone. Have a wonderful weekend! JackieReplyDelete
awww! I remember when I ran across your blog (not sure whose blog you commented on which led me to you) and I was tickled to be your first commenter. Your words of wisdom have blessed me on many occasions this year!ReplyDelete
I remember when I posted for the first time too, and like you, I wondered if anyone would ever visit my blog? Like you, I also visited Pam at her beautiful blog and I know for sure, that everyone will be blessed by their visit there. Thank you for sharing her blog and writing what you did. I am so thankful that I found your blog.ReplyDelete
Your comment is such a blessing and encouragement to me! Thank you for taking the time to leave one.

I have often wondered what the difference between a vision and a dream is. I believe I have finally figured this out. I have dreams almost every night and when the full moon is present the dreams appear more intense and longer. When the moon is a "dark" moon I do not even remember or feel I had dreams, even though I did actually dream. Some dreams we remember and others we may not recall. I used to worry that to dream was super important and that I must remember them or else! Then I realized why worry, either we remember our dreams and write them down or we choose not to remember. Have you noticed that the more you worry about something the more you block yourself? Each night I say to my guardian dream angels, "May I please have pleasant dreams tonight and recall them too, thanks angels!" With their help I can recall most of my pleasant dreams.
Have you ever had this experience? During the daytime maybe you are quiet or doing a task when a vision flashes in your mind's eye: is this a daydream or a vision? My feeling is that this is a vision meant for me to know something, remember, and to pay attention to.
One day when my two oldest daughters were quite young I had a very vivid vision. I was sitting in my chair deciding what to make for dinner when the vision just came into my mind's eye. The vision was this: I was walking in our neighborhood with my younger daughter in the stroller. My older daughter was walking ahead of me as she was too independent to hold my hand. As she was running ahead of me to the corner, an orange car filled with teen agers was racing down the street and ready to turn the corner. Everything turned into slow motion. I screamed my daughter's name and told her to stop and I started running myself. The car was turning so fast that it jumped up onto the side walk where my daughter stood! The vision stopped and my mind's eye went black. I looked at the clock and only 1 minute had passed but to me it seemed so much longer. I was vividly shaken with goosebumps galore so I ran and checked on my girls and they were playing happily with puzzles. I then went to prepare the dinner. All thoughts on this immediately left my mind.
A few days later I had completely forgot about this vision. My daughters and I decided to take a walk through the neighborhood. We were laughing and my older daughter tried to run ahead of me but I heard that car before I saw it and I remembered that vision! I yanked my daughter's hand and held on so tightly she cried out. The orange car was racing down the street and took the corner so fast it ran over that curb where my daughter could have been standing! I thanked our guardian angels for this "pre-vision", knowing that this protected my daughter from harm. This was my first experience of the difference between dreams and visions.

The Golden State Warriors and the Oklahoma City Thunder are set to clash in the last game of the Western Conference Finals 2016 to decide which team will enter the NBA Finals and face the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Thunder-Warriors series can be considered one of the most competitive series in in recent playoffs history. The Oklahoma City Thunder almost eliminated the Golden State Warriors in Game 5 and 6 but the reigning NBA champions managed to bounce back one game at a time.
In Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals, many were expecting that it was the last game of the series as the Thunder took control early in the game. However, the Warriors managed to turn the tides to their favor with the aid of the "Splash Brothers", Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. Thompson, who scored 41 points, was the man behind the Warriors' successful comeback late in the game. Curry fueled the fire in the remaining seconds and the Warriors won the game and extend the series to Game 7.
Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook showed another explosive performance in Game 6. However, the Thunder duo fell short in the remaining minutes of the game and failed to answer the Warriors' attacks.
"If we walk in (to practice) like it's a funeral, then we already lost," the seven-time All-Star told the media at Sunday's practice. "Nobody walked in like that. We can't feel sorry for ourselves. (The Warriors) aren't gonna feel sorry for us. Whoever is covering the game, the fans — nobody is feeling sorry for us. It's just a part of basketball. Guys walked in here real confident. We were upset we lost, but we let that go. We gotta get ready for Game 7."
The Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals is set to take place at the Warriors' territory. However, with Game 5 and Game 6 loss, the Thunder might already have known the specific adjustments that they have to do in order to beat the Warriors. It will be another game that will surely be more intense than the other games and the outcome is still unpredictable.
Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals between the Golden State Warriors and the Oklahoma City Thunder will be on Monday, May 30 8:30 p.m. ET at the Oracle Arena.

The story of Kimbo's Cookies
Kimbo's Cookies opened in August of 2011. After four years of sobriety, I was unable to find work. No one would hire me because of my past. In December of 2010, with five dollars in my pocket, I spread the word on Face Book that I make the best fudge in the world. I used that five dollars to buy my first ingredients and sold 39 pounds of fudge.
It was enough to pay the bills for that month.
I started getting requests from people for cupcakes and birthday cakes, so I began researching cake decorating. I found it fascinating and we scraped by financially while I continued to look for work.
In February of 2011, my son, Andy, decided he wanted a wedding cake for his birthday. (Click the links for more info about this. You'll be happy you did.) I'm the last person to set limits on my son, but let's face it - he's probably not going to get married. So if a wedding cake is what he wants, who am I to deny him?
While working on his cake, I wanted to make chocolate roses for it, and thus began my education in chocolate. I found that I loved working with this medium and started making chocolate stilettos, which were a huge hit...until one showed up in Texas that Easter in a puddle. Shipping chocolate during warm weather was not worth the expense of ice packs and insulated boxes.
So in August of that year, while sitting and staring at the computer, I got an e-mail from a big-name designer cookie company. I'd ordered from them before, so I was on their e-mail list. I started wondering, "How do they make their cookies look so pretty?" I began researching again, reading tons of blogs, watching countless You Tube videos and looking at thousands of pictures of decorated cookies on the Internet. Then I started practicing and posting pictures for my friends on Face Book. This, I discovered, was what I wanted to do. I opened a store on Etsy and called it Kimbo's Cookies.
And there you have it. I have a web site now and a dedicated Kimbo's Cookies Face Book page where you can find TONS of pictures of my cookies. My company will be featured in the December 2012 issue of Women's Day magazine, which will be available Nov. 15th, 2012.

You are currently browsing the category archive for the 'Church' category.
We have a big weekend coming up: the annual Family Conference at our church in Co. Waterford. A bunch of families from different parts of Ireland and UK come together for fellowship and special topics relating to family. We're looking forward to it a lot. Gabriel is in charge of the music throughout the weekend. I'm excited about learning from the guest speaker, John Coblentz. What helps the anticipation is knowing there is childcare provided throughout the sessions for adults. 🙂 (Do I even remember how to take notes?) So. We're looking forward to it.
The struggle I face is this: the conference hasn't even started, and I'm already feeling prickly. Irritated at rubbing shoulders all weekend. Sure that my buttons will be pushed in all kinds of ways. Knowing I'll feel overwhelmed by the crowd after about two hours.
This is annoying because, folks, these are wonderful people who attend the conference, and I would like to enjoy fellowship with them. Why in the world am I feeling irritated at spending a mere two days with them? Does it mean I'm an intelligent introvert who needs lots of alone time after being in crowds? (I like that one.) Is it the devil trying to take away God's glory from the weekend? Is it just my inherent selfishness? (Probably.)
What do you think? Are feelings like this legitimate or should they not be given consideration? I'd love to hear your thoughts, people.
P.S. Val Yoder, the former principal of Sharon Mennonite Bible Institute, used to say that those initials actually stood for Students Molded By Irritations. Ha.
Apparently I've been rendered incapable of producing a cohesive piece of writing, so here are some scattered observations on New Year's Eve.
I'm listening to Bronwyn sing to herself as she plays with Duplo, her Christmas present from us. I didn't know they'd be such a hit, but she's been playing steadily with them ever since we gave them to her yesterday. We won't tell her that the set was a thrift store find. She's perfectly happy with it, and so are we.
We're planning to sleep the New Year in. Doesn't that sound exciting? Hopefully the neighbors have similar plans or else are invited far away for their parties.
Gabriel and I have spent a lot of time rocking, walking, bouncing, or jiggling Gregory to sleep–only to discover that often he goes to sleep perfectly well by himself, in his cot. Now for a way to get him to bed earlier than 10:30pm. No matter how I try, it seems he just can't settle before then. But then he sleeps until 6:00 or 7:00, so I shouldn't complain.
We celebrated four years of married life by going to Newgrange with Gabriel's parents and sister, who were visiting us from Ukraine at the time. Newgrange is a burial mound/religious site that is older than Stonehenge, purportedly built a few hundred years after the Great Flood. (This is a must-see if you tour Ireland.) Each year at sunrise on winter solstice (the day that is also our anniversary), the sun shines into the entrance to the mound all the way to the back of the chamber. You can enter a drawing to be one of the few hundred allowed in to see it at sunrise over the few days this happens. We put our names in for next year. As it was, the day was cloudy, but we still got to enter Newgrange on winter solstice, on our anniversary.
Our Ford Galaxy van, which we love so much and which has made our weekly trips to church and back so much easier, has had the clutch go out and needs extensive repairs. At least it didn't totally go out until exams were over. As it was, the first time it happened was to me on an early morning trip to the airport, the day of Gabriel's last two exams. I couldn't get it into gear, so Gabriel got a taxi to the airport (5:00am is too early for city buses) and drove it to the mechanic in second or third gear. Sometimes it would let him shift, but other times he'd have to turn it off, put it into second, turn it back on and immediately GO.
I mentioned airport trips. Living close to a major airport in a city with no other Mennonites means we get a decent number of overnight visitors heading to or from the airport. We enjoy it. One of Gabriel's friends thinks we should have our own parking bay at the airport — not a bad idea considering how often we go there.
This story made me laugh out loud.
Last weekend we went down to Dunmore East for Council Meeting on Thursday night in preparation for Communion Sunday night. Bronwyn's head cold got a lot worse. It seems like whenever we leave home for a few days, she gets sick. I'm so ready for spring to take away all these sick germs.
We stayed at the guest apartment quarters connected to Dan and Barbara's house. Barbara is giving sewing lessons to church ladies on Friday mornings, so I took my knitting over to get in on the fun. Left to right above is Linda Miller, Victoria Gregory-Smith, Rachel Patten and her daughter Marian.
L to R: Ivonna, Esther Patten, and Natalia Pylypchak.
Bronwyn is blessed with so many sweet little girls at church who play so nicely with her. This is Ruth and Grace Patten.
She started sucking her thumb (sometimes her finger) last week. It's the cutest thing. It has also taken 99% of the fuss out of nap time. I give her a cozy blanket, she finds a finger or thumb to suck, and goes right off to sleep.
Sick, tired eyes. Poor little thing.
Ready to head out the door to church.
Today Gabriel drove to the airport to pick up our friends, Joy Mast and Lana Martin, who are coming to visit. He skipped class this morning, took the toll road to avoid traffic, paid to park in the airport car park, and stood around for an hour waiting for them to show up. Then he realized that I had read the itinerary wrong. They're coming in tomorrow morning, not today. I guess that's what happens when you trust your wife to be logical and intelligent. He's informed me that I'm in his debt for pretty much the rest of our married life. I suppose I can handle that. 🙂
We spent Christmas Eve at Ken and Linda's house. They had oodles of people over and it was so much fun. Deborah had the use of my camera that night and most of these pictures were taken by her (as you can tell, she actually knows how to use it…unlike yours truly).
I love their house. It's been renovated from an old barn on the church property that used to be the mission's workshop. The house is long and narrow but snug and absolutely dripping with character.
Is this not a cozy sitting room? I think Victoria has found the perfect place for reading.
The place soon started filling up with people. The Millers invited over forty people, and even though not everyone came, it was a full house.
Bronwyn loved this little rocking chair.
We were all supposed to bring appetizers…mmm.
Dani and baby Sarah.
We played a hilarious game that involved unwrapping a present and following whatever instructions were written inside. Here Jeanette is trying to draw a picture on her head.
Linda and Vadym had to work together to wrap a present using only one hand each. (And that scarf I'm wearing was knit by my 11-year-old niece, Callie.)
What warm fuzzies this is giving me…there's something about being away from extended family over the holidays that makes me even more grateful for the bonds of this church family.
That was the title of the presentation that the three choirs of Dunmore East Christian Fellowship gave Sunday evening, December 5. Our church has a children's choir, a men's choir, and a youth choir. Gabriel is the conductor of the last two. Esther and Hannah Yoder did a fabulous job of organizing and conducting the children's choir. I think the children were mildly excited that evening.
They were waiting until it was time to go on stage.
Do you think he's wishing he could sing too? Maybe next year, Judah. (This little guy is so precious with babies…watches out for them as best he knows how. It makes it even sweeter that he's hardly more than a baby himself.)
This is most of the men in our church. They sang two songs between the children's choir and the youth choir.
This trio was cute. The guy in the middle did a valiant job of trying to keep them on key. L to R: William or Richard (can't keep them straight) Pylypchak, Joshua Miller, Niall Yoder. I asked Niall later if he was nervous or just excited. "Oh, just excited," he said. "The only thing I was nervous about was I was just hoping the Flynns would come." (The Flynns are farmers who live near the church and are Niall's heroes. They did come to hear the program, so Niall's wish came true.)
L to R: Marian Patten, William Gregory-Smith, Joseph Miller, William and Richard Pylypchak.
And then the youth choir sang their songs. They'd been practicing for weeks and really, I was blown away with it all. They came a long way in those weeks of practices, and their energy and enthusiasm for the project was such a blessing to Gabriel.
Way to go, honey.
Yesterday turned out to be one of those heartwarming days that you tuck away into your memory for safekeeping. It started with biscuits and sausage gravy for breakfast. After that we were pretty lazy. Bronwyn found out she can stand on the couch to look out the window with Daddy's help to balance her.
She was excited about that.
They watched the neighbor kids play in the snow.
Later that afternoon we took a drive up through the city to see what we could see. The roads weren't bad and there was a lot less traffic, so it was an ideal day to be out. We drove around Phoenix Park for a while. It was lovely. This park is a good place to get "away" from the city (although it's kind of a tourist trap, too). It's huge, beautiful, and even has a herd of deer living in it.
A monument to the Duke of Wellington.
It was cold for the little baby.
Funny, this weather reminds me of South Carolina when it gets snow—people sledding down hills barely covered with snow, and grownups making snowmen.
After we left the park, we headed home straight through the city centre. We drove down along the quays all the way to the port.
On the way, we passed Heuston Train Station,
and the Dublin Eye.
Some architect had fun dreaming up this bridge …
… as well as this movie theatre.
We drove home, then.
Supper was bread (fresh out of the bread machine) and sausage vegetable soup, with this for dessert:
I don't usually bake like this just for us. This cake was made with a fellowship meal at church in mind, but then church got cancelled, and so…we got the cake, which was a sweet ending to a happy day.
The mission butchered hogs a few weeks ago. The church people are allowed to help in exchange for getting the meat at a reduced price. Isn't that cool? I got a few packs of sausage and some pork fat from which I made a jar of beautiful lard. (Getting all house-wifey again!)
My baby has lots of doting "relatives" here.
This lady is the brains behind who ordered what cut of meat etc.—she keeps it all straight.
Sausage…mmm. (What's a working day without tea?)
Even the babies had fun.
Gabriel took a dissection kit along and sawed open a hog's head to see what he could see.
His anatomy lesson attracted quite a crowd!
We leave the apartment at about 8:15 and get into our awesome car, thanking the Lord that we no longer have to take public transportation. (Boo.)
We drive through the empty streets (Dubliners are party-goers, not early-church-goers, like Belfasters. That was for you, Lucy :P). By the way, "ramps" are speed bumps.
The dear little baby in the back seat takes her morning nap.
Every time we pass this sign, I want to go to a horse race.
We get on the M9 (Gabriel wrote about it here). This road has changed our lives so much, making our drive to church shorter by more than an hour.
We stare at beautiful scenery.
Well, I stare at it while the handsome chauffeur performs his duties (sometimes I stare at him too):
He has super-cool-way-rad prescription sunglasses.
So do I! 😀
A typical Irish shed (barn).
Gabriel knows the farmer whose land is intersected by this part of the M9. The Irish road department built him this bridge so that he has access to all of his property. That's not the only bridge like this on this road. Some mornings we see cows crossing them.
When we see this bridge, we know we're getting close to Waterford, and from there it's about thirty minutes to our church in Dunmore East.
The bus station in Waterford where we'd come last year when we took the bus back and forth. Every time I see this station, I'm thankful all over again that we don't need to do that anymore.
The Waterford Tall Ships Race sounds verrry exciting; I so want to see it. I'm told that ships from all over the world participate.
Look closely and you'll see the corner of Jay-bee's, the store that the mission operates. It's a gas station, convenience store, bakery, and bookstore. The mission also sells the outdoor furniture that it makes here.
Getting reeeally close. We get to church at about 10:15, usually. It starts at 10:30 (hee hee) and lasts until about 12:00. Then we eat lunch, and if there's a service in the evening or choir practice in the afternoon, we stay for that. Then we head home . . .
. . . drinking in a lovely sunset on the way.
Today we went to church. A friend took this picture of us afterwards so we can put it in our church calendar at Fairhaven (our church in Ontario).
I still can't get over how little time it takes us to get to church with a car. We leave the house at 8:15am and get to church at 10:10am. I love it!
Today I took along a hank of yarn, a pair of needles, and instructions on learning how to knit. By the time we pulled into the church yard, I had completed one whole row of stitches! And now, due to messing up somewhere, I'm back where I started. That's okay. It's a learning process, and at least I'm doing something constructive on the way to church (back seat driving doesn't count).
What's your drive to church like?

On my last post I told the gold bulls to cheer up because the worst may be over because the generally bullish Dennis Gartman said he expects the yellow metal to fall to $1,450 an ounce before it breaches $1,800 and Gartman has fully closed his gold position. Since Dec 12 gold has dropped from 1666 to 1575 and so we need to take a look at the technical picture.
Our chart today is the daily closes of the NYMEX gold plotted above the AMEX Gold Bugs Index. So far this looks like a simple A-B-C type correction in both plots. Currently there is a small degree of bullish positive divergence with the AMEX Gold Bugs printing a higher corrective wave low (C) relative to corrective wave low (A). We need these lows to hold in order to avoid a (C) wave extension. When you look at a very long term weekly or monthly gold chart the primary up trend line has not been violated.

Christ is Ascended!

I am left unsure how to respond. Glad initially that our Ontarian cousins will be spared the 'blessing' of Sharia arbitration but wondering what effect the ruling might have on Orthodox Christians in the province? Difficult I suppose for the Premier, if you say no to one consistency and fairness say that you have treat everyone else accordingly.A bit of me is resentful of the question ever arising. There is precious little real freedom for Christians of any hue in Muslim countries, and yet people - often with strong emotional and family ties to the those same countries, expect to enjoy every freedom and more here in the West. And many of those who most want these things are none too complimentary or grateful for the liberties they already have. A bit of me wants to say if you don't like it here and how we do things then pack up and leave.
Mukhtaran, 31, first came to prominence in 2002, after she was gang-raped in Punjab province on the orders of a village court, which sanctioned the assault as punishment for an illicit sexual affair supposedly committed by her 12-year-old brother, an allegation that turned out to be false. Such punishment of family members, particularly women and other vulnerable people, is not uncommon in rural Pakistan. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2005/06/29/MNGCCDGGCI1.DTL
Last time I checked, Orthodox Christians were not advocating the gang rape of a women after her brother "looked" at another women improperly. Sharia law is a tad bit extreme, wouldn't ya say?
I also know that Christians and Muslims can and have lived amicably together.
I have had friends and worked people who are Muslim. I also know that Christians and Muslims can and have lived amicably together. However the radicalism of some Jihadists is truly worrying if not frightening. They come but some seem to want the majority to adapt while they cling or even retreat into something not even seen in their homelands.And in the spirit of being plain, I have no problem with variety in dress. indeed to see someone modestly dressed is actually refreshing but to be confronted with a pair of eyes peering from beneath a hijab and over a veil is disconcerting if not downright uncomfortable. Even the strictest nuns do not go so far.Respect for all is one thing, because all are ultimately God's children whether they own it or not, but 'political correctness' is a socio-political construct of Marxist origins and, I believe, a nonsense. They swallow a camel but struggle with a gnat (to borrow).Still what I and other sensible folk think counts for little with either the political 'elite' or indeed the academic 'elite'.And thus ends my ramblings on this topic.

Promenade Theater, 2162 Broadway. (212-580-1313). Previews begin Sept. 20. Opens Oct. 10.
* ''THOU SHALT NOT'' With direction and choreography by Susan Stroman, the show has the advantage of a royal imprimatur and the disadvantage of high expectations. Add the theatrical debut, as a composer and lyricist, of Harry Connick Jr., and the anticipation factor becomes the most substantial of the fall season. The story, set in New Orleans after World War II, is an adaptation of ''Thérèse Raquin,'' Zola's play about adultery and murder. The book is by David Thompson (''Steel Pier'').

Book by Terrence McNally. Directed by Frank Galati with choreography by Ann Reinking. Starring Chita Rivera and John McMartin. Goodman Theater, Chicago. Previews begin begin Sept. 21. Opens Oct. 1.

(212-998-5772) In addition, his play ''Johan Padan and the Discovery of the Americas,'' directed by Ron Jenkins, will be presented at the American Repertory Theater: Sept. 6-16.

Sundays and Mondays only. Previews begin Sept. 30. Opens Oct 22. (Tele-Charge) www.lct.org

Directed and choreographed by Robert Longbottom. Mark Taper Forum, Los Angeles. Previews begin Oct. 2. Opens Oct. 14. (213-628-2772) www .taperahmanson.com

The Neighborhood Playhouse, 340 East 54th Street. Performances begin Oct. 2. (212-308-6866)

Las Cruces – Authorities say a man sought in the death of his estranged wife in Kansas has been found dead in southern New Mexico.
Dona Ana County sheriff's investigator Lindell Wright confirmed the body found Tuesday was that of Hoseah Masabah Kaminja, but said any information had to come from Kansas detectives.
Hutchinson, Kan., police Capt. Troy Hoover says the man's body was found inside his car parked in a Las Cruces neighborhood.
An autopsy was ordered, but Hoover says the death appeared to be a suicide.
Authorities had been searching for the 48-year-old occupational therapist since his estranged wife, 41-year-old Wilfrida Masabah, was found dead in her home last week.

Tanner is 16 Months
This is my first week linking up with 1+1+1=1's tot school gathering. I'm still trying to figure everything out so I have been searching the web for ideas for this week's theme. I figured I could start with colors and work my way up to letters in few months. Tanner is still a little go-go-go, so I'm trying to just go with the flow and not force learning on him if he isn't ready.
I am a nurse, not a teacher, so I am new to ideas on how to teach using play. I've gotten most of my ideas so far from 1+1+1=1, The Kavanaugh Report, and You Are The Roots. Hopefully with time I will be able to come up with some ideas on my own. ;)
Tanner figured the best thing to do with his Red sensory box was to flip it over and pick out the cars.
The next tray I had set up was a pom pom push. I made the hole in the top of the container just a little too small so the pom wouldn't just fall into the container. This was one of Tanner's favorites this week. Although he was a little upset that shaking the container after the poms were in it didn't make any noise.
Surprisingly this was the first week Tanner actually enjoyed play-doh! He kept asking for me to open it and sit with him at his table. He stamped shapes into it, rolled his cars in it, and of course, tasted it.
The magnet board was just okay. He was interested the first day, but after that he just preferred trying to eat the magnets.
Dry-erasing is slowing starting to get interesting. He realized Friday that he can wipe the color away. (And I'm thankful the marker easily wipes clean off the top of his table).
I knew this activity was going to be too hard for Tanner right now, but I had the materials so I just went ahead and made it now, so I can have it ready to go in the future. It is a ribbon with a button on the end. And the point is to thread the ribbon through the foam pieces. Maybe we'll try again in a few months.
I found a recipe on pinterest for homemade finger paint. Tanner hated it! He did not like getting his fingers dirty. I'm sure it was the consistency.
Another flop this week was dot painting. It could have been because we were doing it at the end of the day instead of the morning. Or he just didn't want to sit still long enough. We'll try this again in a couple of weeks.
I've been cleaning up our office and decorating it for tot-school. And while I was organizing some trays, I snapped a couple blooper pictures.
I am so excited to be working with Tanner like this. I'm really enjoying it, and I think he is as well. Next week=Orange week!

There are similarities between Corbyn and Major
- They have previously had an affair with a parliamentary colleague,
- Neither of them went to University,
- Their first front bench teams were noted for a lack of women,
- They were not gifted public speakers,
- They believed an open dialogue with Sinn Fein was necessary in order to secure the Northern Ireland peace process.
Under John Major the Conservative Party won more votes in 1992, than any other party in history. Clearly you can't judge a book by its cover!

The biggest drawback of the Explorer is the cramped nature of its interior. With the exception of the turret gunner, all crew members must lie flat on their bellies during the walker's operation. To make matters worse, the passenger space amounts to little more than a tiny area more akin to a trunk than a passenger compartment.
