READING: from "We Can Change the Country" by James Baldwin
The terms of this revolution are precisely these: that we will learn to live together here or all of us will abruptly stop living. And I mean that. This is not, and never has been, a white nation. … We are living, at the moment, through a terrifying crisis, and let me try to put it in the cruelest and most abrupt terms that I can. … [N]ot for a moment does any black man that I've ever encountered believe that he really was what the country said he was. … [T]he American Republic … created something which they call a "[n-word]" … out of necessities of their own. … The question with which the country is confronted is this: Why do you need a "[n-word]" in the first place, and what are you going to do about him now that he's moved out of his place? Because I am not what you said I was. And if my place, as it turns out, is not my place, then you are not what you said you were, and where's your place? …
It is time that we the people took the government and the country into our own hands. It is perfectly possible to tap the energy of this country. There is a vast amount of energy here, and we can change and save ourselves. We don't have to be at the mercy forever of these sordid political machines. … If we don't now move, literally move, sit down, stand, walk … if we don't now do everything in our power to change this country … The future is going to be worse than the past if we do not let the people who represent us know that it is our country. A government and a nation are not synonymous.
SERMON: "Staying United"
On Friday I went over to the Broad Theatre to see the new movie about James Baldwin, called "I Am Not Your Negro." I've been excited about it for weeks, since I first saw ads for it, because I know that he was one of the most important American writers of the 20th century, and one of the strongest voices against racism and oppression. And though his voice was heard loud and clear in the early 1960s – most notably in two debates: one with Malcolm X in 1963, and one with William F. Buckley in 1965 – I never learned about him in school. Not in high school, not in college. Not until public television began to take notice of him did I begin to learn who he was. In 1986, a year before his death of cancer, he was noticed in Robert MacNeill's series, "The Story of English." That year he was also invited to speak to the National Press Club. In 1989 PBS's American Masters series aired a documentary about him, named after a collection of his writings released at the same time: "The Price of the Ticket." Nearly ten years passed before the Library of America devoted two volumes to his work: essays and early fiction. In 2004 the US Postal Service produced a James Baldwin stamp, as if to put the seal on his memory. And then, during Barack Obama's presidency, came the second wave: a new collection of his essays in 2010, a new website based on "The Price of the Ticket" – called the James Baldwin Project – launched in 2014, a third Library of America volume – later fiction – published in 2015, and now this new documentary showing at the Broad Theatre. Clearly, his contributions are being noticed more and more.
You can watch his debates with Malcolm X and William F. Buckley, as well as "The Price of the Ticket" documentary, free online.

His story is becoming more and more accessible to a new generation. I feel that as a ray of hope, a light shining in what sometimes seems a dark time, a beacon like all the citizens and public officials across the country who are loudly saying no to violence and oppression, whether it's the women's march or the scientists' march or Black Lives Matter or judges and attorneys general, and even senators, saying no. That's a lot of light, a lot of hope.
And it's a lot of unity. It's been a very long time since we saw such e pluribus unum so vividly and spontaneously manifest across our country. Up to now, it's all been about "red and blue." Political parties and the media have reinforced this "red and blue" narrative for a long time. It was far from insignificant when Barack Obama began prophetically to challenge it: not red states and blue states, but the united states. Those color labels, red and blue, made division normal, and made it into whatever any of us perceived it to be. It clouded and confused the issues, but kept division the central alternative fact of our national life. Two teams, red and blue, that's it.
And we – we carried that frame over into social media and into our cable and online news preferences, and started choosing to live the divide. "Bubbles" and "echo chambers" some called it. But it was really just a passive acceptance of division. Social media and the internet are not to blame. We are – all red and blue of us.
When we chose teams, we chose a contest. To people who study conflict theory, that's a significant choice. Conflict theorists describe a model with five levels of conflict – five different ways of framing and engaging conflict. The lowest level is when we just have a problem to solve. Nobody's ego is on the line, we just need to work together and solve this thing. If we can't agree on how to solve it, we might find ourselves at the next level up: agreeing to disagree. We might not be fighting, but equally we might not be cooperating. Agreeing to disagree can be honest, but it can be tricky. If we can admit that we might possibly be wrong, it gives us room to cooperate and be helpful, and in the best case, pleasantly surprised. Trust, respect, good communication, and alertness to power dynamics are crucial for sustaining a positive and friendly state of agreeing to disagree. If we fail, we may find ourselves at the next level up: a contest. That's why choosing teams is a significant choice: choosing the contest means giving up on trust, respect, good communication and caring about privilege and oppression, from the start. It's about the most un-covenantal thing we can do.
Once you're at the level of contest, you're at risk to escalate further to the next levels: a war, and beyond that, a crusade. The difference between a contest, a war and a crusade is: a contest you're just out to win against an opponent, in a war you're out to defeat your enemy, and in a crusade you're aiming to destroy the evil ones. Do you see the pattern?And when you've let go of trust, respect, good communication and alertness to power dynamics at the outset, it's hard to keep yourself from viewing opponents as enemies or worse. John Lennon said that opponents "will irritate you … to make you fight. Because once they've got you violent, then they know how to handle you. The only thing they don't know how to handle is non-violence and humor." Note that he said "humor," not "mockery."
I've had to do some hard thinking over the past many months about my own participation in division, particularly since I like a good satire and don't always notice when it crosses the line into mockery. When I was young we used to watch the Carol Burnett Show as a family. I had fond feelings about that. And then in recent years I've had a chance to see reruns – exerpts, really – on late-night TV. Many times what we would have excused back then as just silly slapstick really comes across as mean-spirited mockery. When watching the Carol Burnett Show became an emotional roller-coaster, I figured I had some thinking to do.
My colleague Jake Morrill – who will be preaching here on June 18th – passed along a useful article about how division tempts us. Its author, Sean Blanda, says that psychologists call the idea that "everyone is like us" – that the bubble we inhabit is representative of the whole population – the "false-consensus bias." When we are surprised by someone else's opinion, this bias frames our surprise as: "Oh! I didn't know you were one of those people!" And our notion of "those people" comes from our experience of feeling surprise at poll results or the cultural practices of folks we don't hang with. "Who are those people who believe or do that crazy thing?" And the crazy thing is always something we disagree with. And that's how the red and blue teams were born. This whole pattern of behavior leads to us joining the red team or the blue team. And then we make our social media life into our team's locker room. Blanda writes that this kind of social media behavior "is counterproductive, it's self-aggrandizement at the cost of actual nuanced discourse, and if we want to consider online discourse productive, we need to move past this."
I think that part of moving past it is to take our social media feeds out of the locker room: disengage from purveyors and consumers of locker-room discourse – that is, the sort of discourse that sends us back into wondering who all those crazies are who believe or do all those things we disagree with. Blanda admits: "To be sure, there are hateful, racist people [whose views are] not worthy of the small amount of electricity it takes just one of your synapses to fire. [There are also] those who actually believe in an opposing viewpoint … for genuine, considered reasons. Or at least, for reasons just as good as yours." I think that, to tell the difference, we need to reframe our surprise at others' opinions in a way that puts us on the same team, at least long enough for us to listen and understand. And then we will understand that some we need to understand better, and some we need to challenge better – in ways that invite trust, respect, good communication, and consideration of privilege and power dynamics.
Perhaps the reason it has taken us thirty years to recognize James Baldwin as a member of our team – the united states – is that we didn't want to hear what he had to say. Or not enough of us did. And for those who still don't want to hear him, he is becoming a mainstream challenge to their increasingly fringe views.
In 1963, Baldwin boldly challenged white supremacy, and the understanding of America as a white nation. He challenged that bubble. He called it fiction, and asked white people to account for it. "Why do you need a '[n-word]' in the first place…? … And if my place … is not my place, then you are not what you said you were, and where's your place?" And he said that "we the people … can change and save ourselves." We don't have to buy into division, and we must make sure our elected officials understand that we don't want to. We the people, deep in our hearts, want to be the united states.
We can bring this challenge to buying into division home to our own churches and ministries. What ways do we buy into division here at home, among ourselves?
Our three Unitarian Universalist congregations created two institutions to serve a vision of unity among us. One, the Greater New Orleans Unitarian Universalist Cluster, or GNOUU, exists to foster community and unity among our three congregations. The main way we've found to do this is to worship together four times a year. And yet we divide between those who see our unity as consisting of all gathering in one place, and those who see the benefits of livestreaming these joint services so that visitors can find us on those Sundays. It's in all our interest for visitors to any of our three congregations to find the doors open and some folks present to welcome them, without them having to cross town or the lake to join us. Why would we not wish to welcome visitors to our united GNOUU community, even by livestream? We need to figure out why we sometimes choose to divide over this question.
The other, the Center for Ethical Living and Social Justice Renewal, or CELSJR, exists to serve as a catalyst in New Orleans and beyond for social, economic, environmental and racial justice through activism, community engagement, organizing, and transformational learning. That's its mission, shaped and supported by a Board composed mostly of members of our three churches. Because of CELSJR's work, each of our three congregations has developed relationships with neighbors in Greater New Orleans we wouldn't have found or cultivated as well on our own. This year, CELSJR is serving as our link to the General Assembly Planning Committee, helping to make sure the UUA General Assembly – at the Morial Convention Center the last week in June – will be both good for New Orleans and good for Unitarian Universalism nationwide. There is so much proven value, as well as untapped potential, in this joint ministry – one of the leading UU social ministries in the country! Do we sometimes divide over it? If so, we need to figure out why, and remember that potential stumbling block as well as CELSJR's great successes.
My point is, unity is worth struggling for, and it's a set of skills we can learn and teach. And it requires, first of all, not buying into division. It requires not settling for a contest, but staying in covenant. It requires building and sustaining trust, respect, good communication, and alertness to the dynamics of privilege and oppression. Because without these, you choose up teams – you choose division. And you can't get to unity from there. Amen?

I'm Broken.
The short story is that my dad needs to have an operation on an inoperable brain tumor. Specialists are being called. Only a few doctors in the country have the expertise to perform the surgery he needs.
I didn't want to leave my Dad at that hospital today. He was with my brother and my sister-in-law and his wife and her family, but I didn't want to leave him. I'm so scared, I'm so angry, I can't wrap my brain around this. I didn't want to come home and not have anyone with me to get me through this.
My husband called to ask what the results were. I gave him as many details as I could come up with considering my state of mind. He just continued to be "positive" and assure me that it would all be fine. I end up feeling like we are arguing because it's like he's trying to force me to feel fine when it's NOT FINE.
Later in the day I felt muscle weakness and started to worry. I have a history of serious illness caused in part by intense stress, muscle weakness being the first sign. I called my husband just at the end of my rope. I asked him if he could please just come to dinner with us and help me get them fed and back home. I didn't want to cook, I didn't want to bring anything home because then there would be a mess, I just wanted to get out of the house, stuff their little faces with someone's help wrangling them, and put them to bed. My Dad would be the first person I called to help me with this but obviously, that was not happening tonight. It was a desperate move.
He said that yes, he could meet us, but he'd have to leave by 8. He was going to see a band tonight. Another band that we used to see together. A band that people dance to. Who was he going with, I was curious...wondering if he had hooked back up with the friends who used to go with us? "Just some friends" which I knew meant women, because if it were anyone else he would have just said names (I asked, and I was right). So now I have a mental image in my head of him going dancing with a bunch of girls, likely drinking too much and hooking up with one, which he can now easily because he has his own place, on top of what has happened to me all day....
I tell him to forget it, his presence will just make it worse, sorry I asked, and hung up the phone.
I've been telling myself that although somewhere inside I knew we weren't going to get back together, some little piece of me was still holding on, unable to say OK it's time to file for divorce. I knew that I would know when the time was right.
Tonight was that night. It's time to get on with it. The fact that he could be so insensitive and selfish after the day I had today with my dad, someone he loves as much as his OWN father, was enough to do it for me. I deserve better.
It also dawned on me that the reason he has been so "positive" about my dad's condition: he feels guilty for not being there for me, so he's trying to minimalize the situation. For his own head.
I cannot continue to be married to someone like that. I know that I have known it, but now I KNOW it.
I am broken, my friends. I am low, I am scared, I am ANGRY, and I just don't know if I can take it anymore. How much can one person be expected to get through?
What can I do about it? I don't know. Just try and make it through this moment I guess, and then the next one. I've lost faith completely. I'm beaten to a pulp.

When my mom was at her lowest (twice in my life) she broke her life down into hours. She would figure out what she had to accomplish in the next hour and tackle that. Once she finished that, she would look to the next hour. That's what you will do, move from one task to the next and keep moving forward. You will do this because you are a strong woman. You have already been through so much in your life, you will also get thru this.ReplyDelete
I will pray for you & your dad. Your kids can come hang at my house anytime. If you need anything, just ask, or email, or something. I'm just one of many friends that love you.
For the record, I'm biting the hell out of my tongue regarding that asshat of a soon to be ex of yours. b.i.t.i.n.g.
I read your blog and I am sending you a hug :) I have been thru a pretty nasty divorce and understand the feelings that go along with it. It is not easy to sort them all out because they are often so mixed. I can tell you that time is the remedy. All the things he is doing to you now in time will make you strong and give you the courage needed to move on.ReplyDelete
I will say a prayer for your dad. I lost my dad 5 years ago. A parent being sick or losing a parent is the hardest thing to ever go thru. I have no suggestions when it comes to this because everyone deals differently. You just need to find a way of coping that works for you. It seems like you have alot of good friends and you should lean on them.
I can tell you there is life after divorce it just takes time.

I understand your pain. A few years ago, when I was pregnant with my youngest, his father and I had a major falling out. (BTW, I think THAT fact alone that you and I have in common explains the immense pain that lingers) We stuck it out, but inside I wanted to die. The combination of hormones and the situation resulted in some bad decisions on my part.ReplyDelete
Fast forward 3+ years and I am now a recovering alcoholic, I am forced to see my children under (temorary) supervised visitation, and I still feel like the wind has been knocked out of me.
I wanted to send my prayers for your Dad, but also to warn you against ANY type of self-medicating - for me, it snuck up slowly as a release, but before long it became a requirement to just get through the day. And the saddest part is, although their father took those first steps into darkness, now it is he who has the upperhand in the court system because of how far I fell.
Seek people out - make friends, get hobbies - all things I now wish I had done instead.
My prayers and thoughts are with you - Stand Strong!
Keep strong. You are a stronger person than you know (even though right now you feel as though you aren't). The fact that you had the strength to tell him to forget about even helping you that night shows that. It shows that you can stand up what is best for you and your children and shows you the strength that dwells inside.ReplyDelete
Keep strong my friend.

When most people think of back pain, they envision someone bent over from lower back pain. However, many people experience upper back pain, also called thoracic back pain.
Increasingly people spend the work day and much of their leisure time hunched over computers. Although computers themselves are not the culprit, poorly adjusted monitors, keyboards and chairs all lead to poor posture, a common cause of upper back pain. Another common cause of upper back pain is trauma, which can lead to chronic pain. Fortunately, chiropractic care is a time-tested treatment method for the relief of thoracic back pain.
Pain that affects the upper back may come on slowly or appear suddenly due to an injury. Often, the first symptoms are stiffness and pain in the area between the shoulder blades or a dull ache across the shoulders. Sometimes the pain extends into the neck. Eventually, the pain worsens. It may be accompanied by stiffness and begin to interfere with your sleep and your ability to perform everyday tasks.
Aside from poor posture and trauma, thoracic back pain may be caused by chronic muscle tension resulting from emotional or physical stress. Arthritis, disc injuries or joint problems can also be contributing factors. Degenerative disc disease, a common factor in lower back pain, is less commonly a contributor to upper back pain. This type of pain is often associated with subluxations, or slight dislocations of the bones in the spine, that put pressure on nerves.
Although pain medications such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are often prescribed to ease thoracic back pain, they do nothing to help the source of the pain. As a result, the pain often returns and can become chronic. As Doctors of Chiropractic, we are trained to treat upper back pain effectively, without the use of medications or invasive surgery.
Chiropractic treatment gently corrects subluxations and relieves pain naturally. We will work to relieve your symptoms while addressing the underlying causes. Chiropractors focus on treating the whole patient, so your treatment will be tailored to fit your specific needs and may include adjustments, therapy, exercise and dietary recommendations. Contact Gerber Chiropractic today to learn how chiropractic care can relieve your upper back pain.
We would be happy to answer any questions you have about this article, general spinal health or your specific situation. To discuss your symptoms and concerns call (702) 878-0056.

San Francisco (California), USA – The San Francisco World Music
Festival 2005 will celebrate its Sixth Anniversary September 26 – October 16,
2005 with an exciting gathering of some of the most interesting musicians in the
For festival 2005, Executive Director, Michael Santoro, and Program Director,
Kutay Derin Kugay, traveled to Azerbaijan, Iran, and Kurdistan (Eastern Turkey)

text: O.K. I never blogged about our family's crazy softball schedule this summer. M/W/F we were out on the softball field and the girls had fun learning how to play the game. (Their mom/coach had "fun" trying to teach them too!) The girls were very sweet but after yelling, "throw it to first, first base, first, go to one" and then watching them toss it to second, my patience was extremely tested. :) I also had one little player who after telling her to run out to her position, she stared at me and walked every so slowly out on the field. Grrrrr. I think I better wait a few years before I coach softball again. Maybe I should coach a sport I know nothing about ... Zoey's up to bat.

This is so exciting. These are some of the recent retrievals from my catalog of 30,000 Painted Body photographs that are the images within my original divination deck, The Oracle of Initiation.
It is so incredible to see a project evolve, and three and a half years into it get some fresh perspective. When reading about the process of creating the Fearies Oracle deck by Brian Froud and Jessica Macbeth, Jessica said the Feary Spirit images were so playful and elusive that they were changing their positions within the deck up until the publishing deadline. I sense my deck has some of that energy too, so I do the best I can with what I've got.
Happy day and magic to you all from freezing Santa Fe, a low of 2 degrees tonight. keep that wood stove burning-and let the french fries make my belly warm. M

Hello all…
I've ran into this problem again. When I use IETester, and look at the page stored on my computer, the PNG fix works. When I actually go to the page using the URL address, it locks for a moment, then all the PNGs disappear leaving a bare looking website.
Anyone run into this problem before and know a fix? or is it actually working, and IE tester just sucks?

|Anyone know if Dr. Suess is from around here? The Hook, Santa Cruz.
Cooler on Monday, as a cold front begins to make its way down the coast. The morning will start out like the past few, and it will be fairly warm in the mid to late morning. But heating will be halted as northerly winds pick up mid day and usher in some cooler air. Lets call it 70F+. But not too much plus. Still, not a bad day as we continue to enjoy sunshine and a lack of fog. As it stands right now, I don't see a marine layer building in, but we are shifting into a somewhat summer like pattern, with high pressure building. Only some what though. We actually have a weak low pressure system moving south down the coast as it falls apart. The PNW will see some rain on Monday, and then the thing kind of just splinters. Cool air falls south, and the low pressure system in the South West begins to draw in moisture from the dying storm and off the Pacific. What does that mean for us? Cooler yet on Tuesday as temps peak in the mid 60s. Geez.
As that system in the SW pulls moisture in, the L.A. area is likely to see rain on Wednesday and through the end of the week. We might get a few sprinkles on humpday, but I don't think it is very likely. We are kind of missed by this thing as it jumps from the PNW to the SW. Lucky us. But we could see some cloud cover. Wednesday will feel cool. With some luck, the winds will go slack. As a note, this could be a good surf day, as a north gradient will have generated some mid period wind swell by then. Anyway, as very slow warm up begins after that and through the end of the work week. But it might be a little time before we head back up through the 70s and into the 80s. Check back here for more updates.

The Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Mohammed Abubakar, on Monday visited Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, without visiting the state Governor, Rotimi Amaechi.
Abubakar was in the state to inaugurate 100 Prado Sports Utility Vans donated to the nine Niger Delta state Police commands by the Niger Delta Development Commission.
The IGP also did not address officers and men of the command, who waited for several hours to hear from their boss.
The state Deputy Commissioner of Police, Operations, Mr. Joshak Habila, addressed officers and men of the Police. He thanked them for coming out enmasse.
It was at that pointed that security operatives, especially those in their ceremonial uniforms, who had waited to mount a guard of honour, left in disappointment.
Also, journalists, who waited anxiously to get Abubakar's views on the crisis rocking the state and the controversy surrounding the decision of the state Police Commissioner, Mr. Joseph Mbu, to ban rallies, left in disappointment.

Europe & Serious-Minded Centrism
So, apparently we're descending into crisis mode again – the austerity consensus in France has clearly fallen with the election of the Socialist President Hollande, and in Greece anti-bailout parties took two-thirds of the vote. Some of these, like the seemingly fascist "Golden Dawn" are quite scary.
I just want to note, somewhat orthogonally to the actual situation, that the election results in Greece put an odd spin on the centrism and bipartisanship that Washington types always seem to extoll. Much as those Washington types always extol, Greece's Pasok and New Democracy joined hands and leapt into a better tomorrow, passing bold policy initiatives that were abhorred by the voters but that all the Serious People knew simply had to be done. In other words, they acted as the very model of the national-unity-caucus that will One Glorious Day Save Our Nation From Fiscal Crisis.
Except that instead of the public admiring their civic spirit and bold leadership, they regarded both mainstream parties as discredited and turned to alternatives that were less boldly proposing much more popular fiscal policy alternatives. Since those parties were emphatically notmainstream, they also happened to have some rather unsavory policy platforms such as nationalizing the financial system or driving immigrants en masse into the sea. I would suggest to David Brooks that he seriously ask himself if that would be a possibility here.

WEST CHESTER, Ohio – A mother in Ohio is searching for answers after a pornographic film ended up in the hands of her 7-year-old daughter.
Krista Greider told WLWT that her 7-year-old daughter Mackenzie loves to play Wii video games.
The week before Christmas, Greider went to Target to purchase a game called Splatoon. After getting a store associate to unlock a case to get the game, she went home and wrapped it with a note from Santa.
When Mackenzie opened the game on Christmas, Greider realized something was wrong.
Instead of the game, the case included the DVD "Sensual Seductions 2," a pornographic movie.
"I was really upset," Mackenzie said. "I said, 'Why did Santa get me this?' She had to tell me it wasn't him."
Greider says she reached out to Target, who apologized and sent her a gift card. However, Greider wants to make sure this doesn't happen to anyone else's child.
A Target manager told WLWT that all games and DVDs come into the store packaged and the store cannot sell anything unsealed to a customer.

Happy Birthday Otis!
Oti LOVES people. I don't think we have ever had such a people focused dog. Otis doesn't want to just get petted, he loves to lean into you, as if he can become one with you.
Even though Oti is now 4 or 5, he is still a big puppy at heart. I think that Otis will never grow up. Otis sees shoes, towels, hats, gloves and anything that is not nailed down as a potential toy.
Every morning, before the alarm goes off, Otis jumps on the bed and wiggles his way up until his head is almost on my pillow. The instant the alarm goes off, Oti jumps on top of me wanting to be petted. From Oti's level of excitement, you would think Otis had not seen me in weeks. I find it odd that Otis never jumps on Jeff. I guess we know who the Alpha is in our pack.
Otis has been good for Cooper. Coop certainly likes to boss Oti around and Oti seems happy to have a companion when we are at work.

Living in a place called Synchronicity
I've recently had the pleasure of discovering the art of Paul Laffoley when I stumbled on his work over a week ago while listening to some third-eye opening music mixed by a very lovely psychedelic myspace friend. Check out the music here
Well after pouring over Laffoleys work online, I found out it was the last day of his exhibit at Kent Gallery in NYC!
I rushed there as soon as I could, barely making time as the paintings were just about to be taken down. The people working there were really nice and let a friend and I in while they worked and even gave me an enormous free poster of Laffoleys: DIMENSIONALITY: The Manifestation of Fate 🙂
I found his visionary work to resonate deeply with me as it wove a thread of synchronicity through various branches of knowledge, bringing it all together in diagrams of giant mandalas. The paintings featured everything from the I Ching to the occult.
And then I saw THIS painting:
I felt a wave of lucidity rush through me as I gasped and remembered the dream I've had a few years back of UFOs operating using the "Om" vibration. I even posted about it just days ago in my blog "Aum, Cymatics and the Word" before even hearing of Laffoley! You can't see it but radiating from the UFO is a light mandala at the center of which is the word "Om". The sacred Aum is the word which vibrates into existence all of creation, and Laffoley illustrated this perfectly as a rotating mandala!
I just love it when this happens! It is the fuel I need to keep searching, the assurance that all is unfolding exactly as it should on the grand cosmic scale.
I don't now about you but I feel time speeding up. Patterns are emerging connecting people, events and ideas in a place outside of ordinary space-time. We are living in the in-between now, a dream we are all co-creating in the presence of the NOW.
I call this place Synchronicity. See you there!

The Cross

Galatians 6:12, 14
As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution of the cross of Christ. But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
Reflecting on the significance of this week these questions come to mind, What do the cross mean to you? Does it mean that all had sinned and come short of God's glory (Romans 3:23) and this posed a love dilemma for God and the cross was God's perfect solution as He is righteous and cannot look on sin? Do you believe that the cross of Christ was where God's wrath and love collided? Do you believe that God poured out His wrath on His Son so God's love and forgiveness could be lavished upon us? Does it mean that the horrific death that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ suffered for our salvation is worthy of our steadfast faith in Him? Does it mean that all who believe in Jesus Christ suffered and died with Him on the cross and was raised with Him on Resurrections Sunday to a life of righteousness? Do you believe it was necessary for Jesus to go by way of the cross and to shed His precious blood to atone man's sins as man lacked the ability to atone his own sins?
The cross means that Christ bore the wrath of God the Father for our sins to redeem man back to the Father all out of love. Without the cross of Jesus Christ there is no salvation and no hope for tomorrow.
The cross is the beginning of Friday's and Sunday's events; Crucifixion Friday and Resurrection Sunday. Thank God for both.

How did you all spend your resurrection Sunday? Mine was such a blessing! At our church, all of the children and youth shared words of gratitude or praised with a song. Celebrating the resurrection of our Savior is such a special time each year for us and our church. Aside from the spiritual preparation of Resurrection Sunday, there's also a bit of fashion preparation that goes into the day too :)
This past Sunday I wore all black and white, which is something I don't typically do. I love color… A LOT, so even a pop of color is a must with for every one of my outfits!
My top is actually two tops. The solid print one is a black tank style shirt with a flow-y criss cross in the front. In the back, there's a "train" or tail. This shirt was so fun and the "train" was a little bit unexpected. I think I like that!
Then, because it's still a bit chilly outside, I paired the dressy tank with a lace turtle neck. I love this shirt for so many reasons! It's so versatile in style.
In my opinion, I think that this aztec/geometric is the star of the outfit! The silhouette, length and of course the print bring together the other pieces of my look. Isn't it fun?
And finally, I chose my little cutout oxford style shoes to complete my outfit. I was toying with the idea of wearing a new pair of black heels, but these shoes seemed to coordinate with the look. Overall, I felt that this little ensemble I put together was just right for spring. The dressier pieces like the tank and lace turtle neck were toned down a bit by the oxfords. It was effortless (and by effortless I mean easy to wear) and still fashionable.
What do you think? Also, do you think I should post more of my outfits? And, I couldn't forget about my lovely photographers, Alicia and Aizess.

After the birth is over and you go home with your baby there is a time of greatly important learning and changing that takes place. New mothers and fathers can be easily overwhelmed by the lack of sleep and daily tasks of caring for a new baby. Bathing and breastfeeding, diapers and bonding, friends coming to visit and not really to help, meals to prepare and laundry to do...it can be too much. A postpartum doula steps in and assists with all these things, as you require. She may come once a week or every day for a while...supporting your goals and encouraging you, helping you recover physically and emotionally from birth. If you have other children that are feeling a little neglected the doula may watch your infant so you can have focused time with them. Or she may just give you some time to get a bath and rest for a few minutes.
I have made the primary focus of my doula practice to be labor and birth doula services. I work hard with you to prepare for birth and I gladly walk you through the process of birth...right through to the end. Because this one aspect of care is so involved I rarely do postpartum work other than to help with basic breastfeeding and to visit you postpartum a time or two. But, I am glad to report that there is more than one option for you if you would like a postpartum doula. If you want me to be your postpartum doula I am glad to do this, but it is not my primary focus. I charge $22.00 an hour for postpartum doula services. Either way, you deserve a good break and you should be served in the weeks directly following the birth of your baby.
Times when a postpartum doula is most ideal:

January is missing in action. I haven't worked on it in over a week and I can't find it. I *think* I left it at work but it's not in my desk and it's not on my desk so I don't know where it is. I can't imagine someone took it, it's only a quarter of the way worked.
I'm going to start Feb cuz it's my birthday month and I'm excited to do this one. Maybe I'll find the Jan one and work that between Feb and March.

Why is your answer wait?
God, you have given me the vision, the passion, you have handed me the dream. I want to change the world for you.
Is it right to let me suffer?
I am willing, ready, ripe to move when you say move.
So why must I wait?
I know you are good, you show me time and time again. I know you are always right on time.
So I'll prepare, hope, dream as I wait.
So when you say move I'll move.

The BE Living Cookbook
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is often described as relentless, disabling, and unexplained fatigue.
Because there is still no single test to confirm a diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome, your physician must rule out other disorders first.
Unexplained fatigue for six months or longer may result in a diagnosis of chronic fatigue. You can alleviate debilitating symptoms by healing a wounded inner ecosystem with help from glutamine found in Vitality SuperGreen, known to reduce chronic fatigue.
Recently, researchers from the Osaka City University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan have been able to identify markers of inflammation in the brain associated with chronic fatigue.1
If you're new to Body Ecology, we recommend starting with the BE101 Course first.
You may receive a diagnosis for chronic fatigue syndrome if you have had unexplained fatigue for six months or more.
You must also have four of the following symptoms:
While scientists aren't sure what causes chronic fatigue, many studies point to a relationship with inflammation.2
This inflammation may be in the brain. It may be systemic, whole-body inflammation. Or, the inflammation may happen in the gut. Often, we see all three.3
For example, in 2012 researchers found that patients with chronic fatigue syndrome had immune markers in their blood that mimicked irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) — or an inflamed gut. They were also more likely to feel tired, have flu-like symptoms, and feel sad or irritable.4
It's Donna Gates' mission to change the way the world eats. Read more of her articles on The Huffington Post.
In addition to an inflamed gut (along with an inflamed body and an inflamed brain), there is also evidence that chronic fatigue syndrome is associated with changes in the inner ecosystem.
The inner ecosystem includes communities of microbes living within the digestive tract, mostly in the colon or large intestine.
Those with chronic fatigue syndrome have a wounded inner ecosystem.5 This means fewer good microbes and more microbes that inflame the lining of the gut.
Did you know that microbes living in the gut also influence levels of anxiety?6 Anxiety is one classic sign of chronic fatigue syndrome. Eating more probiotic foods or taking a probiotic supplement can help reduce fatigue in people diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome.7
At Body Ecology, we recommend eating fermented foods with every meal. This is because we know that the probiotics found in living foods are far more robust than those found in a probiotic supplement.
There are so many more fermented food options than you've been led to believe. You can find our tastiest Body Ecology recipes here.
Professor Michael Maes at the Clinical Research Center for Mental Health in Belgium shows that key nutrients like glutamine can seal a leaky and inflamed gut, which is associated with chronic fatigue syndrome.8
Glutamine, a core ingredient in Vitality SuperGreen, reduces the risk of leaky gut.9 Glutamine also keeps the gut barrier strong and intact when the body is inflamed.10
Professor Maes recommends using glutamine in conjunction with diet.
This is because diet directly shapes your inner ecosystem, feeding — or selecting — specific microbes. For example, foods filled with refined sugar will feed the yeast Candida. Your diet can also contain irritants that inflame the gut and "turn on" an immune response. Examples of common food irritants include wheat gluten and milk casein.
At Body Ecology, we recommend a diet that is:
Addressing inflammation in the body is a crucial step in overcoming chronic fatigue.
Chronic fatigue syndrome is a difficult condition to diagnose, characterized by unexplained, debilitating fatigue. A doctor will normally rule out a number of other health conditions first since there is no test to diagnose chronic fatigue syndrome. Chronic fatigue may come with other unpleasant symptoms, like memory loss, sore throat, muscle pain, headaches, and extreme exhaustion.
Though there is no known cause of chronic fatigue syndrome, researchers believe that the condition is related to inflammation. The inflammation may be found in the brain, throughout the body, in the gut, or as a combination of all three factors.
Repairing a wounded inner ecosystem is the most important step to alleviate chronic fatigue:

Malindus Gadur
Malindus Gadur is a human wizard of noble birth from the city of Big Town. Malindus is a man of only twenty two with short black hair and black eyes. He has a mildly sharp brow, no facial hair, and pierced ears. He dresses in fine linens and silks, often embroidered, gilded, or otherwise finely appointed. Buckles, jewelry, and other decorations of dwarven make often adorn his clothing and body. In terms of mannerism Malindus is rather typical for a person of his age and station. He is largely ambiguous with others, though he'll be the first to let them know of his discontents. He can be lazy, selfish, prideful, and bossy but never displays these qualities to a gross extent. These mannerisms are a product of his noble upbringing, but are also kept in check by it. Malindus has a deep seated passion for magical study and spends many hours reading and writing magic daily. His neutral good alignment reflects his simple desires for good will to reign above all in a world filled with moral grey areas, complex institutionalized beliefs, and outright corruption and destruction.
Mal, only to his family and closest friends, has been trained in the arcane arts of divination by his father, Darian Gadur, since his adolescence. Due to imperial restrictions on arcane magic these lessons would be carried out in secret, away from the prying eyes of the public and the long reach of the empire's inquisitors. For many years, Malindus toiled his hours away in an extradimensional study space beneath his father's library. Like all arcane casters hiding throughout the empire he was taught to do magic without need for component materials. A keen intellect allowed the youth to master magic with ease, however as a member of the nobility, certain expectations were placed upon him by society.
Beside his intensive training in magic, young Malindus trained as a squire to maintain appearances. This dual life, coupled with unending visions supplied by his steady progress as a diviner, deprived the young man of proper sleep for years. The scrawny teenager quickly learned to rely on his agility and premonitions from his divinations to keep himself safe from harm while learning to spar and fight. The few injuries he did sustain only made him more resilient. Through a collection of spells he mastered and a personal penchant for the crossbow, Malindus faked his way to the top of the class.
As his twenty first birthday passed and his dubbing ceremony drew near, local inquisitor Meinrick Wyrmsbane took a particular interest in Malindus. A survey of the academy produced a handful of skeptics with varying stories implicating Mal on various counts of heresy and wizardry. After a somewhat awkward series of interactions between them, the feeling of cat and mouse was too apparent and Wyrmsbane decided to arrange a formal interrogation. Tipped off by his political colleagues, Count Darian Gadur immediately devised a plan. Filling a pack with scrolls and gold, Count Gadur awoke Malindus in the early hours of the morning. Explaining his situation in it's entirety, Darian outlined the route by which the young wizard would make his escape. With a cold wash of invisibility the father sent his son off towards the Big Town
After a 3 day voyage aboard the merchant caravel known as the Spotted Dolphin, Malindus arrived in Belleport. A carriage chauffeur awaited his disembarkation and escorted him to a local safe house. The crowded hostel held a number of other individuals and Malindus was grateful to spend only one night there. The following evening the chauffeur set Mal up with a single mule and covered cart

OK last Saturday I received my first Fine cast model, and after opening it I must say the quality is great, I didn't take pics of the un_primed model but I did took them from the painted pieces because that model screamed to be painted in parts.
First all the parts
Next each part beginning with the legs
Next the torso
the various bitz
the first 4 pieces together
at last the built model
until next time.
On more thing I changed my usual energy saving lamp for a less energy consuming 1 watt led, but it is a focused design that is great to work on my models, but not so good for picture as I realized today.

"The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left." Ecclesiastes 10:2
The Democratic Party is well versed in fighting their 'enemy', which is the America people who live on the Right side (pun intended) of politics. They've been polishing their skills of personal destruction for many generation.
They have successfully, with the assistance of a compliment, lazy, corrupt Democrat devoted media, made their case that Republicans and Conservatives are: racist, homophobic, bigots, anti- environmentalist, who want to pollute the land, poison people, wage "war on women", hate all Mexicans, kick puppies . . . and are all greedy, rich SOB's.
Well, here's a new term to describe these Liberal Democrats: they're Conservaphobics. They hate, revile, hold in ill- repute, and radically loath all things conservative. One suspect among thousands is here: here
To observe a Conservaphotic, one need only turn on MSNBC, the nightly 'news' on any of the America or international networks, PBS, NPR, the vast majority of college and University Professors, Democrats in Congress (both State and Federal), brainwashed college students, some talk show hosts and many callers, Hollywood celebrities, and those who control Face Book — to name a few.
These are the people who have no tolerance for opposing views. After short discussions, they turn to railing against not just the message, but the Messenger, referring to them as: racist, homophobic, bigots, anti- environmentalist, who want to pollute the land, poison people, wage "war on women", hate all Mexicans, kick puppies . . . and are all greedy, rich SOB's.
It's the easy A Liberals go for — why exert time and energy, attempting to debate when you're in the wrong and can't debate? It's so much easier to lie and malign an opponent for a slew of unprovable, false reason. It's the strategy used by Democrats since debating began. But once the media corrupted itself with willing compliance, the lie became the reported "truth".
So to celebrate the success of the lie and the honest hatred of those who love Mom, baseball and apple pie. . . the Constitution, the military, the unborn, personal freedom and maximum liberty for all Americans, the Liberals have been given given a new and suiting term, which they will continue to wear well. They are Conservaphotics.
"Conservaphobes": a more eloquent and entirely accurate description of the low-information mouth-breathing O-bot libtard.
Kindly don't mention anything to "Cher™" that she's already breathing the same air as Mittens; it might come as a fatal shock to her. But if you do, also, also offer her a plastic bag with a zip tie. I'm sure she'll

Sympthoms (2)
I have been to physio today for my weekly appointment and I've endured some serious neck-manipulation this time. I felt immediately relieved after the manipulation and the soreness and stiffness of the neck seemed to had vanished when I left the physiotherapy room.. but I suspect something didn't go perfectly well with the massage because when I came back to my office and started working at the computer I started feeling an unbearable sordid pain in the shoulders and back.
There was no way I could stay in my chair for more than 10 minutes without this pain underlying whatever position I was experimenting in the attempt to alleviate the discomfort.
After a couple of hours of pointless twisting about on the chair I just gave up. Printed a few scientific papers (to have something to work on) and went back home where I laid on my bed to ease off the muscular pain. And this is with Nurofen. I just do not want to imagine how it would be without it.

Larry Bird scored 14 of his season-high 40 points in an 18-2 first-quarter spurt that sent the Celtics on their way to a 126-106 victory over the Atlanta Hawks at Boston Friday night.
The Celtics were leading, 18-16, when Bird triggered the rally that sent the Hawks to their fourth loss in a row.
The Celtics, with consecutive victories over the Indiana Pacers and Atlanta, not only clinched the Eastern Conference All-Star coaching berth for Coach K.C. Jones, they also returned to the form of a year ago, when they started their drive to the championship.
"The guys wanted to get it for me," said Jones, who will be coaching the East for the fourth year in a row. "It is an honor, and I enjoy it."

Working hard, can't wait to show you what I am up too!
{craigslist SCORE!}
As many of you know I love me some Craigslist and those close to me know my home is fully furnished from Craigslist, Thrifts Stores, Flea Markets, and Home Goods {and of course Anthropologie}.
Today, I am so excited to show you a piece I found on Craigslist and share how I got it.
The room I am focused on today is my bedroom.
My bedroom colors are yellow, black, white, grey, and a touch of purple, a little Hollywood Regency, Modern Twist.
When I decorate a bedroom I don't normally start with the nightstands but in this case I will make an exception. Why? Oh, because I found the two most AMAZING pieces.
Yep that's right, isn't she lovely and the best part is she was only $75.00.
Now because this piece is original vintage from the 1960's-1970's era the possibility of finding another piece to match is near to impossible. I was thinking I was going to have to find a vintage side table that would go with this beauty and match the yellow with paint.
Until, I was searching Craigslist last week and came across this magnificent vintage Hollywood Regency style night stand!
First off, the color could not be any more PERFECT, right!
Second, REALLY, a Vintage Dorothy Draper style night stand has been a dream ever since I saw this credenza Vanessa De Vargas styled. You may have seen this shot on {DecorPad}.
I was secretly disappointed that there wasn't two nightstands so if I wanted to change things around later and turn it into a credenza like above, I could. However, I am not COMPLAINING!
The BEST part of this find is that I did not spend a penny. That's right! I ended up trading a different table that I no longer was using, it wasn't really my style anymore anyways.
As many know, I am very budget minded when I shop like most of you are or having to be now.
Today with the economy the way it is, people are having to downsize, losing their houses, and can't fit there stuff into the new place.
The way I see it is, why not be creative and help each other out. It turns out to be a WIN, WIN for both of us!
If I know I have something comparable to what they are selling. I will offer to trade. It may not always work but in this case I got LUCKY.
This was too big for them and it was PERFECT for me!
SHH! Don't tell anyone my secret but if you happen to try it out, you must leave me a comment and tell me all about it.
{Check back as I have a very special bedroom DIY project coming up and I can't wait to tell you who I am collaborating with!!}

{dilemma of the week}
Okay, I have a dilemma this week and need your help blogger's!
I just moved and I am trying to decorate my new place. I have been searching for a new rug for my living room, after scouring every online rug store and seeing who had the best sale going on.
I finally decided on a rug from RugsUSA.
I finally decided on a rug from RugsUSA.
chevron (black and white zig zag)
I love the choice I made but now here is the problem. I have a 3 year old who runs around all day, who likes to change her outfit 10 times a day, each time putting on a new pair of shoes.
The front door also opens into the living room, so when people enter they will be entering onto the rug.
How do I keep a black and white rug from getting super dirty from all the foot traffic?
I could ask for people to take their shoes off when they enter. However, I am still afraid I will have a dark trail across the rug where people frequently walk.
Do I scotch-guard it before laying it down? Do I have it cleaned more often?
I am so nervous that I don't even want to lay it down! Any suggestions....
While I figure out what I am planning on doing with the rug situation, here are a few other rugs I was considering from {RugsUSA}.
{FYI: They are having an amazing sale going on, anywhere from 20-50% off rugs.
Don't wait go check it out NOW!}
Which rug would you choose?

{September is ALMOST HERE!}

Who is with me?
I am dying over every piece! Let me just tell you what I will be running, diving, and hoarding. :) I'm just sayin.... "Wink, Wink"
I mean come on, have you seen the shower curtain and bath towels "sigh"..... I love!
My heart literally skipped a beat when I spotted the rugs!
Rugs {$29.99} "Swoon" Do you hear that? They are calling my name.... :)
See you there!
{styled tween}
Today, I wanted to show you a few shots from a recently re-styled girls room I did down in Carlsbad, CA. I had the lovely privilege of designing a 10 year old room from her child like "baby room" as she stated to a room that screams SHAYNA! She wanted lots of color, personality, and a place she could hang out with friends.
I of course wanted to throw in a little bit of vintage and when I mentioned this to her mom she was ECSTATIC! She actually made my job really easy, she had a collection of vintage pieces that she wanted me to use, such as the CUTEST vintage sack dolls I have EVER SEEN! I have added them to my list of smalls I want to collect and pass down to my daughter.
I had an amazing time working with Sherry & Shayna on her tween room and with just a little elbow grease, paint, and my love of shopping (haha!) we made her room a dream come true.
I had an amazing time working with Sherry & Shayna on her tween room and with just a little elbow grease, paint, and my love of shopping (haha!) we made her room a dream come true.
I left the frames empty so Shayna was able to participate in the room design by being the one to choose pictures of her friends and family.
I am dying over these vintage sack dolls!
How cute is this vintage loveseat?
I chose this piece for Shayna because she can read on it, hang out with her friends, and years to come take it with her to college.
The best part is her mom does not need to worry about her wrecking it, or spilling on it because when she wears it out, or changes her style, all she needs is some new fabric and one phone call to her upholsterer.

Loveseat: Craigslist
Rug: Ikea

{Let's do a photoshoot!}
I am so excited to share with you a photoshoot I did with my bride and groom!
They had so much fun at their wedding but were bummed because they didn't get more photos on all the eye candy. Chello! Let's do a photoshoot!
As you all know photography is a passion of mine, so I grabbed a camera, picked up the bride & groom and headed down coast highway. The best shoots are when you find the random spots to shoot at and your adrenaline kicks in when your not really sure if your tress passing or not {wink! wink!}.
As we headed down coast highway from Newport Beach to Laguna Beach, we came up the hill and there it was, a field, a cliff, and the ocean! JACKPOT!
As we hopped out of the truck, camera in one hand, props in the other, cars whizzing by us and the groom carrying the settee, we quickly setup up and went for it.
Not being able to imagine how the day would go or if we were going to get good shots, we managed to exceed all of our expectations when we were able to spend an hour and half shooting, getting every last shot needed. Just then the cop showed up {in our minds, it's about time} "you can't be here, private property!" "oh sorry sir, we are leaving right now!" LOL!
{It's really all about the bride, no offense groom! LOL!}
After our little adventure and run in with the law, we all decided to keep the party going.
We headed straight to the house in Laguna where the bride & groom got married and then down to beach.
However, we had to make a quick stop in downtown Laguna!
..................... house
Needless to say, they had one fun, exciting, eventful day, reliving the wedding of their dreams!

{Nick & Shala}
I recently styled a wedding in Laguna Beach for an amazing couple! The bride, Shala came to me wanting something unique, whimsical, and a touch of romance. Of course, I was already picturing chandeliers hanging from the windows, old vintage lamp shade lights hanging from the entrance and vintage seating around the dance floor.
I had so much fun styling this wedding and working with other talented people!
I have never seen someone more passionate about their job like Paul Kerby of {SSPG}. He filmed from the very first curl, down to the last song of the night. He goes above and beyond what is asked of him, each bride gets to have a video that is catered to the couples style, personality, making it unique and one of kind, something you will not be embarrassed to show off 10 years from now. You only get the best with him, which is why, I must share with you the teaser video he sent me.

I had the honor of attending my wonderful friend Eleanor's lingerie shower.
It was perfect!
The hostesses discovered the perfect balance of sweet and spicy;)
Sinatra's golden voice was played softly in the background and candles provided a warm glow.
They had a white sheet hung up to project a video of Andrew being asked
questions that Eleanor then had to guess what his answer was.
(Everytime she got an answer wrong though she had to don some ridiculous article
of clothing that she had to strut down the runway at the end.)
Delicous coffee!
Desserts galore, including canolis!
The sweet bride, Eleanor.
She recieved lots of goodies!!!
The wreath on the door of Jordan's home where the shower was held:)
There was no way I was leaving without a picture of it-
even though it was pitch black outside though haha!

I couldn't find it either. It's not one of the guarantees that Python makes. Operations aren't atomic by default, such as unless stated otherwise. Though it does seem counterintuitive to have to write: with a_lock: a+= 1 > I also realized that the created lock's release and acquire > methods are also imbued to the created shared object, and this is also > undocumented. Sorry, I don't follow you. By the way, your first example didn't produce the expected result on my machine-- even with the 'if __name__' statement.
