Some of the old Oddbins magic is back. Quite a bit, actually. So hats off to Simon Baile who's turned it round – the range at least – in 15 months.
2007 Domaine Terlato & Chapoutier Shiraz/Viognier
This is Michel Chapoutier of the Rhône in his joint venture in Victoria and it's one of the best new Australian wines I've tasted in ages. Its full, ripe, succulent, but not jammy, and has an evocative, spicy, stony, sweet-herb character that's far more Rhône-like than Australian. The tannins, such as they are, are smooth and fleshy and the finish is dry and clean. 14%. There's also a denser, more aromatic version which will age longer – Lieu Dit Malakoff – at twice the price.
£14.99, or £11.99 by the case, Oddbins
2006 Castello di Farnetella, Chianti Colli Senesi
This is a lovely, accessible Chianti – nicely supple, but with a convincing chewiness, sweet cherry fruit and earthy spice. 13% abv. Just the sort of wine to spend a cold, wet weekend with. But not me – I'm off to Chile.
£12.99, or £10.39 by the case
2008 Onda Nova Verdelho, Algarve
You don't need to be a fan of Sir Cliff to like this verdelho. Equally you shouldn't let the connection put you off. His name is on the label, but it's just a small scrawl – sorry, signature – on the back. It's a full-bodied, zesty white with tropical lime-jelly and lime-marmalade flavours. Refreshing, but somehow comforting too. 13.5% abv.

Christmas West Wing
In Excelsis Deo
In this West Wing episode, Toby gets called by police to identify a homeless man who died in cold. As he finds out that the homeless man is Korean War veteran Toby, who is also a veteran, traces the man and arranges a military funeral for him using the president's influence. It seems like Toby's sympathy for the man as a veteran is the main reason why he prepared the homeless man's funeral in this episode. However, I think part of Toby just wanted to ensure a man, who was willing in a war with strong loyalty to the country, the dignity he deserved as an American. CJ's outrage over Minnesota can be related to Toby's action in that she was trying to protect the rights and dignity of people.
As I was studying about different kinds and stages of prejudice in Thology11. I was surprised by the notion that even in such a multicultural country like America significant portion of people have hard problem accepting people who are different. This acerbic attitude of people is greatly illustrated in this episode. People simply don't care for others enough to be nice to them. They just do not take a second to try to be conphrehensive of others. When they find out that someone is different from them in a way that makes them uncomfortable they turn bitter, hostile, and sometimes violant toward the person. The motivation of the students who decide to abuse a homosexual kid for his sexual orientation was nothing more than unreasonable prejudice. Also, the story with the veteran who died in cold shows the rather nonchalant attitude of public toward people they do not have connection to.
Should congress pass laws for dignified burials for veterans and for punishing hate crimes? Opponents of governmental intervention in justice issues emphasize their rights to have their opinions. However, government should not put rights of some people to beliefs before the rights of others to survive and have a normal life. Governent should not only pass the...

For another summer season. I am always sorry to see the season end, just when the playing is getting good, only to have to start all over again next year. Taylor is LOVING her baseball right now but they are done and out of the playoffs. Annika is actually PLAYING soccer now, as opposed to watching while crying, and that's a huge accomplishment. And Holly's soccer team is playing like a team now, and doing really well. Ive seen huge improvements likely despite my bad coaching, and love watching them play!
So last week was Annika's last week for soccer. We did find out this week that her leaque will be taking part in the end of year Tournament in September, which we didnt think they would be. So there is one day left.
For their last day, Annika's team had Fun night where the parents played against the kids. Against! hahahahah! it was fun and I didnt plan to play so I was not properly attired. lol
See Annika in there Challenging me. Grrr. Im all like Bring It On, little person.
Here Yelling Im Open, Pass it to me! This is not only something I have been working on getting MY team to do (a few are getting it) But remember it's parents against the kids...and they arent being faked out. They did NOT pass to me.
Annika attacked me and attempted to tackle me to the ground. Luckily I saw it coming, and headed it off by spinning her in circles til she was dizzy.
Friends with her Soccer Ball now. :)
The Soccer POSE.
And sort of a team photo. iT was hard enough to get those little kids to stand together let alone stand nice and pose. So that was about it. Battery dead now. lol
Taylor's Mosquito baseball team entered Playoffs this week. They had a rough season, not playing together so well, not batting too well, and losing a lot of games, some to Forfeit because not enough players came to the game. Not a lot of dedication in some of those players.
Anyway the last couple of weeks they have been playing well, winning a lot of games, and doing much better. Taylor got less scared of the ball, and started to hit it. And they were in a good place coming into the playoffs.
They won their first game on Monday night. Tuesday night they lost but it was due to pitching as Scott was saving his best pitchers for the Third game. Which I got to go to! :) I missed a lot of games for taking the other 2 to their soccer nights.
Taylor is in the outfield playing...actually I'm not sure what position she was playing at that point. Rover? lol NOt sure but she's in the outfield. Might be left field.
They started this game with a lead of 3-0. It looked good, they were playing well. BUMMER about the Umpire, he is the worst I have ever seen, legendary even with his poor calls. I was so so mad, that's the reason I need to stay away from Ball Games...I was SOOOO mad at those calls he was making. It really confuses the kids and takes the wind out of their sails when they strike out, never swinging, because they are either trying to avoid getting hit or could never reach the ball, with a strike zone of about 16 feet. Most kids are not tall enough to reach those "strikes" anyway he SUCKED and we can leave it at that. No doubt about how it affects the outcome of a game tho.
ok so down by a run, Taylor comes to bat. Now the highlight of the game, Taylor got an awesome hit! Not just a hit....but she got a DOUBLE! So She's there on second base poised for third! :):) She's been on base before but she usually walked there. This was her first really honest to goodness hit onto base. :D:D:D
Of course I was so busy yelling and cheering I didnt get a photo of her Running into HOME to score the tying run! But she totally DID! her team came out to High Five her and it was all and awesome time!
Didnt last forever tho, as the other team scored at the bottom of the 6th to win the game. It's sad to see the season end but it did end on a good note when the team was playing well together and Taylor had that hit! She was sad to stop playing now, finally getting into the game. I dont know if she will play next year.
The team and coaches pull it together for a photo at the end. They will have some sort of a Banquet but Ive no idea when or where or what.
and Last Night Holly's soccer season ended, but for the Tournament in September. their team has been doing great most of the season and has won more games than lost, played really well together the past few weeks, and basically had a great season with very little troubles.
Holly really LOVES soccer. and she's such a little cracker out there, getting in the middle of things and taking the ball away from kids way bigger than she is. She's always kind of playing a level ahead, with a birthday late in the year she is bumped up to the next level fast, spending only one year at Under 6, now this year playing Under 8 with kids who are already 8 years old, and much bigger. Didnt seem to phase her at all, I just love watching her play! She also loves to play Goalie, and doesnt do too badly at it either! :)
While off a shift, waiting for something to happen.
Making a big save! She made a lot of those, and also let a couple in. The goalies were mostly playing too far out of the net, and it improved when I stood near and reminded them to get back into the net.
Kicking the ball back out into play. We're working on big kicks or kicks to teammates Lol but a few times they would get booted right back at the goalie who is too far out of the net to actually do anything about it!
Holly scored a good goal in this game, the first for our team in that game. :) One of the other boys who had not scored all year also scored. IN the past couple of games I saw a lot of first goals as the kids learned the positions and started to make the most of them, passing the ball around and going to the net. YES a couple of them DID learn the concept of GO TO THE NET, which I yelled so much they must have started to hear it in their dreams GO TO THE NET PLEASSSSSE go to the NETTTTT! lol. I was glad to learn last night that our team was not the only one to not always get the concept. But there was much improvement and I was glad to see lots of passes and lots of calling out to teammates "I'm open" or Pass here or something to help out when caught in tunnel vision. There was still lots of "sheep following" going on, with one person on the ball and the rest trailing behind but there were a few shining moments when one of them would GO to the net and get a goal, and the light came on and they got it. :):):)
The half Time meeting. There's not really a tonne to be able to tell them at this point lol other than keep your butts in the net and stop watching the ball go by. There was a lot of "watching" going on! LOL
Holly playing Forward here. She's not a bad forward, she really goes after the ball and doesnt let it get too far away....still not getting the concept of Go to the NEt but it will come next year :):):):):)
Ya just gotta understand, how stinking SMALL She looks out there! It's almost funny, the size of her but she's always in the middle of the action, scooting on for the ball and scooting back out again!
So we won this game by one goal, partly to good play, excellent goaltending, and their team having no one to change shifts with so I am thinking they were getting tired towards the end although you couldnt really tell, they were really playing their hearts out. It was a great note to end on, and we cant wait til the tournament in a couple of weeks! :)
The team, who were thankfully all there last night.!
and I just have to add this silly photo of Holly, put on her roller blades and climbed onto her bike to see if more wheels helps!

The Terrorland: So nice of you, Raza, you like our posts. But, if you want, we would like you to write an article for The Terrorland group blogs, and correct us if we are wrong! Would you? We want dialogue on "taboo subjects" so that people prefer dialogue not guns in our society.

COMMENT from CPJ article: "From Karachi to New York: A tale of fear, loss, and hope"
By AK on October 30, 2011 12:04 PM ET
"It's an open secret that in the name of secularism, the MQM has been terrorizing people not only in Pakistan but also in other parts of the world. It's becoming a fast growing fascist mafia that uses terrorism as a means of communication in the world. With deceptive looks, the MQM could be more dangerous to global peace and security than the Taliban and Al Qaeda." [The Terrorland]
By Rehman Pakistani [a member of The Terrorland Team] on November 2, 2011 7:57 AM ET
@ Bob Dietz, if you were in Pakistan, I swear, by now you would have been among Wali Khan Babar, Faisal Qureshi and other journalists killed by MQM and its partner in crimes, the ISI.
Thanks for writing this historic article and providing an opportunity to let the so-called journalists be exposed with their comments here, which they have given in favor of the universally declared terrorist and fascist organization known as MQM (Mutahida Qaumi Movement). The real faces of these journalists with stains of blood on their hands have now become a chapter of history of journalism in Pakistan...
CPJ! We know, this darkest period in Pakistan will end soon as the world has now realized the real problem! Gradually our people are also getting the courage to speak about the criminals and their friends in the guise of "respectable" journalists... keep our voice heard around the world!
We are expecting much more from Bob and others at the CPJ. Because we know that they can't be bribed or threatened to be a part of the Pakistani criminals in power. Keep it up!

On Sunday, I went to an ET support group for the first time. It was interesting to hear from other people with ET. They shared their stories of how long they have had ET and tips for how to do things with ET. The majority of people with ET start noticing the shaking between their 40s and 60s, so I was the only one my age at the meeting. For some, no one else has ET in their family, while for others almost every member in their immediate family has the movement disorder. There is no way to know how often it will be passed down. There was even a mention of a couple rare cases where someone with ET will progress into Parkinson's Disease. For some people, the shaking is in just one hand, others both hands, and some even have a tremor in their neck and head. I have it in both hands and my neck and head. The tremor in my head is not noticeable all of the time, but when it is acting up, it feels like my head wobbles.
At the meeting, we were given a pin with the Archimedes Spiral. That is the symbol used by the International Essential Tremor Foundation(IETF). The spiral is a tool used by movement disorder specialists to determine the severity of the tremor. My neurologist has done this with me. He will give me a piece of paper and a pencil and ask me to make a spiral starting in the middle without resting my hand on the paper. The spiral will usually get messier as I spiral out from the middle.
I've started wearing my pin with this symbol so other people with ET can recognize it and feel like they are not alone. It is also a good way for me personally to practice talking about my ET. Usually when I talk about my ET, I get flustered, turn red and become embarrassed. By wearing the pin and putting my ET on display, I hope to teach myself to talk about it without being embarrassed because I know it is not something I have control over and therefore should not be ashamed of. I know it is not my fault that I shake. It is a personal goal of mine to be able to talk about my ET without being embarrassed and to share my experience with other people in a calm and relaxed way.

Modern propaganda, both state and capitalist, exists for the purpose of manipulation. The American war party has unleashed a vast propaganda machine against Russia that aims to emotionally prepare the American public for a new cold war or even a hot war against Russia. At the center of this campaign is the demonization of Putin as a Stalin come back from the grave, at the same time that the language of "Terrorism" is being used to demonize the Russian majority in Ukraine. Russia is being framed as a nuclear armed criminal state in league with terrorists and separatist extremists, led by a new Stalin.
This is all tiresomely familiar to those of us who fought against the war with Iraq. Remember that Saddam was a "a nightmare out of the nineteen-thirties" after he stabbed us in the back and stole Kuwait, (although not before, when he was using our chemical weapons on Iranian cities). That framing of Saddam was a critical component in the political packaging of both Iraq wars, and millions of Iraqis paid with their lives for Saddam's sins. The same machine, run by mostly the same people and towards the same ends, is clearly being turned upon Putin in order to justify and morally sanitize the destruction of Russia.
This is a long term project but the basic scaffolding of the cold war and anticommunism is right at hand. The immediate tactical objective is to increase institutional funding, save big ticket weapon systems from budget cuts, and to polarize the coming presidential race into a hawk contest. The long term strategy is apparently to commit nuclear suicide in a new war with Russia, but as Dugin has explained this final lunge is the product of the implosion of Liberalism, and has deep ontological roots.
At the core of all the framing is an emotional narrative that is entirely immune to reality as such. It is constructed out of a scaffolding of day to day lies and spin but it transcends them and outlives them. The emotional narrative-Putin as a murdering dictator-is all most of the western public will remember or even pay attention to in the first place. This narrative-not the day to day lies-is thus the backbone of the war party's popular support. While we must always contest the day to day lies with total intransigence, we must also prepare a strategic offensive against the core of the narrative.
In order to prepare such an offensive it is necessary to understand this narrative at its root. The root is simply enough the American Saturday morning cartoon, the professional wrestling match, or the action movie. This narrative is so idiotic that we overlook the raw power of its imbedded meaning in the collective mind. Yes it is idiotic, so we must weaponize and idiotism of our own with which to destroy it: an absolutely ruthless idiotism based purely on metaphysical force, unavailable for any compromise or rationalism.
At the visible level the enemy narrative is somewhere between a James Bond and a Tom Clancy movie. At a deeper level this is He Man (or She Ra if Hillary gets elected) vs Skeletor. At the ontological level this is the Liberal turning away from the void to find another country full of sacrificial victims. This is the narrative of a ritual that ends in mass murder, and should be understood through both the anthropology of human sacrifice and the political economy of Liberalism.
In his Essay:
The War on Russia in its Ideological Dimension
Alexander Dugin lays out a solid theoretical understanding of the metaphysical struggle, and the path to victory:
The main idea that liberals will try to advance to define Putin ideologically will be as the shadow of the past, as a vampire: "Sometimes they come back." That is the rationale behind this attempt to prevent the final implosion of liberalism. The primary message is that liberalism is still alive and vital because there is something in the world that we all must be liberated from. Russia will become the object from which it must be liberated. The goal is first to liberate Ukraine, and by extension Europe and the rest of humanity, who will likewise be depicted as being under threat, from Russia, and in the end Russia itself will be said to be in need of rescue from its own non-liberal identity. So now we have an enemy. Such an enemy gives to the liberalism its raison d'être once more. So Russia is being made out to be a challenger from the pre-liberal past thrown into the liberal present. Without such a challenge there is no more life in liberalism, no more order in the world, and everything associated with them will dissolve and implode. With this challenge, the falling giant of globalism acquires new vigor. Russia is here to save the liberals.
Post-liberal Russia: The first war of the Fourth Political Theory
In conclusion, what I propose is the following:
We need to consciously counter any provocation to frame Russia as a pre-liberal power. We need to refuse to allow the liberals to save themselves from their fast-approaching end. Rather than helping them to delay it, we need to accelerate it. In order to do this, we need to present Russia not as a pre-liberal entity but as a post-liberal revolutionary force that struggles for an alternative future for all the peoples of the planet. The Russian war will be not only be for Russian national interests, but will be in the cause of a just multipolar world, for real dignity and for real, positive freedom – not (nihilistic) freedom from but (creative) freedom for. In this war, Russia will set an example as the defender of Tradition, conservative organic values, and will represent real liberation from the open society and its beneficiaries – the global financial oligarchy. This war is not against Ukrainians or even against part of the Ukrainian populace. Nor is it against Europe. It is against the liberal world (dis)order. We are not going to save liberalism, per their designs. We are going to kill it once and for all. Modernity was always essentially wrong, and we are now at the terminal point of modernity. For those who rendered modernity and their own destiny synonymous, or who let that occur unconsciously, this will mean the end. But for those who are on the side of eternal truth and of Tradition, of faith, and of the spiritual and immortal human essence, it will be a new beginning, ABSOLUTE BEGINNING.
With the Putin-is-Stalinism-reborn industry in full swing we see the confirmation of Dugin's predictions with the latest round of liberal media hysteria. In all fairness to the liberals, after what happened to the Chocolate Pimp's Army, they have good reasons to be hysterical. Yet one can detect a greater and greater level of anxiety in the liberals that has roots deeper than the recent defeats. For the post-modern western public, and also for many of the so-called "elites" the entire frame really is a bad horror movie, with Stalinism leaping out of the grave once more, the last scene before the end and the inevitable victory…but…what if this is the kind of horror movie where the monster kills everyone at the end? So the great anxiety as the neo-liberal rat is caught between fight or flight, unable to clearly choose the proper lever to pull.
In response we wish to combine the strategic insight of Dugin with the narrative mastery of the great American horror writer H P Lovecraft:
The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown
Our counter narrative to the consumerist emotionalism that is being packaged in the west as post modern and post imperial politics, is not to directly oppose it but to push it to the side of the worst kind of Stephen King novel or Horror movie. Liberals are arrogant, but they scare easy. Let them have their "back from the dead" narrative and we shall respond:
No we are here to bury you! You are the corpse that will not die and we are the villagers with the torches! Neoliberalism shall not pass! Fascism shall not pass! The armies are raised and the enemy is destroyed in battle! Joy to the people and death to their enemies!

Another in my series of murals in central Phoenix (and then, the world)…
It's a big one…
It's by Joerael J. Elliott. It is described by Robrt L. Pela (not a typo, that's how he spells it), a Phoenix New Times writer, as "a gorgeous mural depicting our overbearing desert sun and how people survive it."
It's on the side of a building housing Way Cool Hair.
Here's another link where you can see more photos.
This is one of the more elaborate ones I've seen, so far.
And, hopefully, this one won't get tagged as so many others have.

Now, the collective has edited together its most promising stories and illustrations to serve as its face in introducing the world to a new generation of talent, in The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories.
From hitRECord, the immensely popular open collaborative production company, and its founder, Golden Globe-nominated actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt, comes The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories: Volume 1.
The universe is not made of atoms; it's made of tiny stories.
To create The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories: Volume 1, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, known within the hitRECord community as RegularJOE—directed thousands of collaborators to tell tiny stories through words and art. With the help of the entire creative collective, Gordon-Levitt culled, edited and curated over 8,500 contributions into this finely tuned collection of original art from 67 contributors. Reminiscent of the 6-Word Memoir series, The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories: Volume 1 brings together art and voices from around the world to unite and tell stories that defy size. – Publishers Website
What a great little book to get your creative juices flowing so to speak. When I received this book, I opened it to the beginning like we always do when we read a book…once I got to the end however, it told me to read from back to front, which gave me a totally new story and opposite ending. How novel!
It has not only little pieces of text, prose, but also drawings that have been contributed by many people from around the world. So join the site, and add your own little pictures, feelings, music, videos, anything really and see what happens next, you could be featured in Volume Two, or Three.

We have been experimenting with our West Bend dual-paddle bread machine, using recipes from "The Bread Lover's Bread Machine Cookbook."
Here's a good one: Hungarian white bread with fennel seed.
1 1/3 cup water
2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
4 cups bread flour (remember to use a spoon to shake the flour into the measuring cup; do not scoop)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon plus 1 tsp gluten
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon bread machine yeast
Put the ingredients into the pan according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Crust to medium
Basic cycle
When the baking cycle ends immediately remove the loaf from the pan and let it cool on a rack to room temp before slicing.
Recipe is for a two-pound loaf.
We also add a teaspoon of caraway seeds and a half teaspoon of anise seeds.
This is a very fine bread for toasting.

I saw this project on Good Things Utah and knew it would be the perfect present for my friend Jennifer's birthday. Well I did it on Tuesday but couldn't post because I know she looks at my blog sometimes. Well I had lunch with her yesterday and give it to her. Hope you like it Jenn! I plan on making one for my family as well. It's a great way to get some thoughts from everyone in your family on what they are thankful for and then put a picture to remember the moment. You can get the instructions off this blog. http://www.kmckaydesigns.com/
The album was just a blank book except for the brown spine and I mod podged paper onto it and added a pinkish flower and glittery MM brad for a center. Then I used the We R Memory Keepers kit "coppered out" to make the pages inside. I made enough of the pages to do all their family plus grandmas and grandpas ( I just showed 2 examples)
Off to create some more. I have 3 projects in the works and since my husband had to take my car and I'm homebound all day I hope to get them all done.
Happy Day Everyone!

So you have an interview! Finally! All the hard work of digging for jobs, matching your skills with descriptions, and writing up cover letters has come full circle. You're finally going to meet the hiring manager. Don't freak out, but now what?
Well first, don't freak out. IT WILL COME ACROSS DURING THE INTERVIEW IF YOU ARE NERVOUS. The key is confidence. Keep cool and know your resume inside and out and you'll do just fine. But there's more right? Oh yeah.
Next, research. Find out all you can about the company, about it's current events (Google news search), a little about why the position might be open when related to the overall scheme of things, what are current or former employees saying about the organization (figuring out the culture), and as much as you can about the job you're interviewing for. It's important to come fully loaded with knowledge to be able to talk the talk so to speak. I mean what's confidence anyways? Knowing exactly what's going on the whole time. Knowing how to speak about anything at any point during the interview. Not tripping yourself up. Well if you have all the knowledge you can get, then those little anxieties that creep up shouldn't last long. But remember, don't ramble either! It's a fine line.
Okay, so now what about the unknown part of the interview? The random line of questions that the hiring manager spits out in rapid fire. Easy. Get really, really familiar with the job description and how you fit it. Also know some spots from your resume that direct relate to the opening. The more excited and verbiage you're ready to spit back, the easier on your brain during the interview. However, that rambling thing, so watch that fine line.
What else do you do to prepare? Well show up a little early so you can get squared away. Nothing like being late and rushed. Don't overdo the coffee that morning. Coffee can bring out those nerves. And, practice some answers, but don't be a robot. It's good to be able to speak to the "common" questions typical hiring managers always ask ("where do you see yourself in 5 years?" "why did you leave your last job?" or "do you have any questions for me?"
Ah, the final questions. Please, for the love of God, always ALWAYS always ask some final questions. Even if you're good! And save the "benefits" questions for the next round. Never ask about benefits on the first date.
Good luck out there. Remember, your resume gets you the interview. The interview gets you the job. So go in there knowing all the hard work's been done. Now's the easy part. You know you can be an asset for the organization, so show them that and the rest will follow.

Regina Spector has a new album coming out, "far" …so I wanted to write a little some thing about her because she is so wonderful!!!
I met her on a photo shoot right before her last album (Begin To Hope) dropped and have been doing her make-up on the west coast ever since. This is us back stage at The Tonight Show. I feel every one needs to go and see her play the piano and sing. She is in a league of her own. A musicians musician. She has so much depth and diversity to her music. She is a brilliant and loving human being. Do your soul a favor and check her out. here is Regina's myspace link.
Regina has really porcelain skin, big eyes, and big lips. I loved doing her make-up!!! This picture was published in a woman's magazine out of New York called Miss Behave. We did a simple classic look. I think this was the first time Regina tried a brighter red on her lips and she loved it. It was cool because she wasn't afraid to try some thing new and different. I created a softer look to the bright lipstick by running a lip brush over the outer edge of the lips, which blends out hard lines. Another product that worked really well on her skin was the Laura Mercier matte foundation. This foundations feels light and fresh. It really keeps the shine down on an oily skin and yet still gives a glow. You can add water to it and thin it out for a sheer look or use it's full coverage like I did on Regina for the photos. Blush was very natural. And for her eyes, a simple light frosted color applied sheer, then a black liquid liner and mascara. Oh, and a smidge of brow color applied only on the ends of the brow.
Luv U Regina,

I had heard mixed things about this, plus given the recent series, I was concerned about the studio I thought that produced it, but it turns out that both opinions were incorrect. The movie is actually a lot better than Terminator 3. It had a few flaws, but using the 'movies are fun' argument that justified Transformers 2: Robot Testacles for earning $200 million, I think we can cut this one some slack.
The movie is basically about how John Conner actually becomes the head of the Revolution. It has a lot of action and an interesting side plot about a man who mysteriously shows up who was in suspended animation and then appears naked out of nowhere who makes a significant difference as to whether the good guys succeed or not.
I liked it, but it had a few problems.
Spoilers ahead.
One of the biggest comments I've heard is how easy it was to sneak into the complex. Yeah, well, apparently a lot of other reviewers are moronic, because it is VERY easy to sneak into the main complex of the bad guy when they want you to.
Now, the 'why pick a guy from 1993 who is going to stick out like a sore thumb to lay your trap' is another criticism I hear a lot about this movie. Actually, the 'its so dumb it just might work' defense seems valid to me. I honestly have to wonder just how much proof you'd have to offer someone if you claimed to be from the future and that you were trying to alter the timeline to prevent a disaster. I'd bet that it wouldn't take much proof and that there would be an awful lot of people that would totally fall for it. Plus, maybe Skynet didn't have a lot of bodies lying around when it first started, so it picked the one with the most data lying around.
Now some things were lame.
Skynet is just stupid. The humans always do the best they can with what they have, sometimes against hopeless odds, but Skynet is aware of all the time paradoxes (hence its desire to kill the guy who is going to be John Conner's father) but it doesn't care about temporal paradox and just goes ahead anyway. It also pulls a 'join me, and together we shall rule the galaxy' with the cyborg guy.
Not yet once has anyone tried to make the paradox work via ignroance. For example, in T3, John Conner is revealed in the future to be killed because he was a moron and trusted a T-800 too much. Why can't he just program the robot with false info and send it back that way to maintain the timeline, and then shoot any @#$@#$@# T-800's that suddenly try to become friends with him?
One can hope that might happen, but I'm not holding my breath.
The good news is that at this point, we're entering new territory with these movies. We don't need to keep wondering if Skynet will send yet another crappy robot back in time, because we KNOW it has to happen to avoid temporal paradox.

Have any of you been looking at purchasing a house? We have recently been looking at purchasing a new house. Boy is it fun! But a lot of work!! You don't really realize all the work that goes into searching a house out, finding the right one and then going for it. Of course, real estate around here is somewhat slim pickings because of where we live but it is also a lot easier to deal with neighbors and people you know than purchasing from strangers. You kind of know what you are getting:) But if you are looking for santa monica real estate, I would urge to check out the website. I thought I would give some tips here using ideas we have found after buying a house. This might help those of you looking at purchasing a new home or maybe in the future.
1.Take Your Time.
This is the number one tip I can give. Above all, please don't do anything hasty. I have seen way too many people rush out and purchase a house and live to regret it. Whether a leak, a problem with the roof or structure, attic falling through, plumbing problems, etc. this is something you have got to think through.
2.Research Your Options.
Go to all the real estate offices in your area and check out all your options. Browse listings online and anywhere possible. Also, just drive around and look at neighborhoods. I have often found houses that were out of the way and for sale by owner that no one ever saw. Our area is small and rural so houses are spread out. Because of this people use signs by the side of the road but they aren't always listed through a realtor or online. Every once in a while you can find a gem in this manner.
3.Don't Compromise.
Have things set down that you will not change on. Whether it is the amount of bedrooms or bathrooms, the size of the yard, or the basement and attic. Have certain things you don't mind changing on but other things just can't be compromised. Realtors will want to sell you the property even if they don't think it is the exact house you need. So make up your mind before hand about options you want.
Hopefully these will help you in your search for a house. And if you have any other tips, please leave them below. I love hearing from my readers!
This is a sponsored post for The Partners Trust, however, all the points and views are my own.

lets PRAY FOR GAZA :)
This is a Dua by Mishary Rashid Al-Efasy for the people in Gaza.
Allah is sufficient for us.
He is the best disposer of affairs
Oh magnificent, oh honored one
Save the Muslims of Gaza
Oh Allah!!!
Oh Allah, be for them a guardian and helper
Our Lord, strong are those who are near to you
Glorious is your praise
And sanctified are your names
Oh Allah no one can abolish your command
And no one can defeat your army
Praise and glory to you
Oh Allah to you the Jews are evil doers
Oh Allah revealer of the book
Mover of the clouds
Defeater of the armies
Crush them down and shatter them
Oh Allah show us in them signs of your might
Murderers of the messengers and prophets
Tyrants of the innocents
Oh Allah free the Muslims of Gaza
Oh magnificent, oh honored one
Oh Allah loose their chains
Heal their sickness
And uncover their torture
Oh Allah replace their fear with safety
Oh magnificent, oh honored one
Oh Allah strengthen Islam and the muslimeen
Lower and shirk and mushrikeen
Destroy the enemies of the religion
And protect the territories of Islam
And unite the word of the Muslims in truth,
oh lord of the worlds
Oh Allah saves the weak and powerless
of the muslimeen everywhere
Oh Allah improve the situation
of the muslimeen in Palestine,
Iraq Afghanistan and everywhere
Oh Allah bring together their hearts
Guide them on the paths of pace
And lead them from darkness into light,
Oh magnificent,
oh honored one
We already know what's happening in Gaza night.
Bombs, weapons, explosions, death, injured people.
Kids are killed. Even BABIES.
We sleep peacefully during nights but people in Gaza,
they have gone through many sleepless nights, living in fear.
Pray for the children and young people,
asking that all their fears will be calmed.
Pray for the women, asking that there be food,
water and medicine to care for their families.
Pray for the men to learn the power of nonviolence.
Pray for those who are mourning for lost loved ones,
and for God's comfort to them.
We know, we can't do anything,
except for continuously praying for them.
May Allah save them from the ruthlessness of the Zionis.
May Allah bless the soul of the dead. Amin.
inii saya amek dalam twitter :
Yahudi sering membunuh kanak-kanak di Palestin
kerana mereka sangat takut akan kanak-kanak

Guys, let us spend a little of our time to #PrayForGaza.
Remember, Muslims' greatest weapon, is the DO'A :')
Ya Allah, selamatkanlah mereka di Gaza.kami di sini tdk sanggup melihat keadaan mereka di sana.ya Allah, berikanlah kekuatan kepada mereka :)

Over the weekend I worked on both Kindle and paperback versions of Half Sick of Shadows and have queued up what I think are the final versions of both. Kindle release day is May 1st, and I have a window of only a couple more days to make changes before it is frozen ready for deployment. As for the paperback version, a proof copy should be on its way to me very shortly, and, all being well, that will go live not long after the ebook.
Meanwhile, preorder links are at:
- Amazon.co.uk,
- Amazon.com,
- Amazon.in, and other global Amazon stores
There are also a couple of other ways you can get a Half Sick of Shadows fix:
On Alexa: enable the Alexa skill for Half Sick of Shadows on the UK or US Alexa stores – listen to extracts and hear about the book directly.
Or on Issuu:
And finally, here is the latest version of the blurb (which may change yet again over the next few days):
Who is The Lady?
In ancient Britain, a Lady is living in a stone-walled house on an island in the middle of a river. So far as the people know, she
has always been there. They sense her power, they hear her singing, but they never meet her.
At first her life is idyllic. She wakes, she watches, she wanders in her garden, she weaves a complex web of what she sees, and she
sleeps again. But as she grows, this pattern becomes narrow and frustrating. She longs to meet those who cherish her, but she cannot.
The scenes beyond the walls of her home are different every time she wakes, and everyone she encounters is lost,
swallowed up by the past.
But when she finds the courage to break the cycle, there is no going back. Can she bear the cost of finding freedom? And what will
her people do, when they finally come face to face with a lady of legend who is not at all what they have imagined?
A retelling – and metamorphosis – of Tennyson's Lady of Shalott.

Stop? Pause? Go?
After preparing for six months by analyzing work schedules, reviewing budgets, and staffing requirements to comply with the new overtime requirements, a Federal Judge in Texas has placed a Temporary Injunction on the new rules.
December 1st was the date the new Department of Labor regulations were to take effect. As discussed in You Have 30 Days; Are You Ready? the minimum earnings an employee could have to be considered salaried (exempt) was to be raised to $47,476. This was nearly double of the previous requirement.
Will the new regulation still take affect?
We don't know. The Judge placed a Temporary Injuction on the regulations which is essentially hitting the "pause" button. This came about as 21 states have challenged the legality of the new regulation. The Judge hit the "pause" button until he could review the case, arguments presented, and make a final decision.
How long will this take?
We don't know. It's possible for the Judge to decide within a week, month, or more. There is no "due date" for the decision.
So, now what?
"Go": Some companies have already implemented the new requirements, you can keep following them. Think twice before you "stop". You need to take into consideration the effect it will have on those affected and how they will respond to you, your customers, and those around them.
"Pause": If you were waiting until December 1st to implement and have already spoken to your team, think about what it will mean not to implement. Were some looking forward to earning the overtime, to others maybe it didn't make a difference – where do your employees land?
"Stop": If you were waiting until December 1st and haven't spoken to anyone – well, there is nothing else to do.
Once the Judge decides will it be implement or "stopped"?
If the Judge lifts the injuctions and considers the regulations lawful, we will have to move forward with implementation. If the Judge decides the regulations are unlawful, it's not over. The Department of Labor can appeal the decision. This will all be happening at about the same time the new President is sworn in and we are not sure what his stance is on this subject.
Unfortunately, we are left with more questions than answers.

(2) Philosophy & Psychology
Introduction to SCOD Philosophy & Psychology 101
In many ways Philosophy covers psychology, politics, religions, ethics, morality, sciences, and environmentalism. Philosophy is important because it is our attempts to explain patterns of thought and action. As theories, some are proven and some are not. Philosophical theories in Architecture explain how and why we build certain ways, and suggest new ways.
Psychology can help us to modify our thoughts and behaviors to better achieve goals in life. There are various philosophies of psychology, to better suit the diversity of humanity. Even sciences like Psychiatry were developed from the writings and teachings of ancient philosophers and medieval alchemists, so it is from the beginning that our studies should start.
Psychology is a Philosophy that seeks to understand human thoughts and behaviors. If we learn from psychology, we can build architecture better suited for us. Be not afraid. There are some Important Philosophers we can study to self-educate ourselves, to help form our own SCOD communities.
Philosopher Kings & Queens
Asian: Lao Tsu, Sun Tsu, Buddha and Confucius
Hebrew, Christian, and Muslim: Moses, Jesus, Mohammad
Greek: Thales, Pythagoras, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Euclid, &
Archimedes; Celt: Vercingetorix, Boudicca
Roman: Cicero, Julius Caesar, Marcus Aurelius (Stoics)
Medieval: King Arthur, Saint Francis, Joan of Arc
Modern: Machiavelli, Francis Bacon, Hobbes, Locke, Descartes,
Hegel, Hume, Kant, Kierkegaard, Goethe, Nietzsche, Ghandi,
Marx, Jung, Phenomenology (more in References)
Science: Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, Einstein
Seven Ancient Sages
The 'Classical' philosophies of ancient Greeks are the first on historic record to start asking the most basic yet profound questions of Life, the Universe, and everything. Modern philosophies tend to ask more complex questions about our experiences in Existence, and many of the basic questions are redefined by scientific theories. It is wise to know past examples of thought, although we are capable of coming to many of the same conclusions without having read them, or may have already formulated some similar theories independently. The original Seven Sages of Greece were:
Thales, Pittacus, Periander, Cleobulus, Solon, Bias, Chilon; but for this thesis the 7 chosen Greeks are: Thales, Pythagoras, Empedocles, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, & Epicurus.

Mum: You've read The Picture of Dorian Gray haven't you?
Me: Yeah, I read it in school.
Mum: What was it about?
Me: It was about this guy who had a portrait of himself which got uglier as he turned into more of an ar…
The painting changed to reflect his every vice, and he kept it hidden out of shame.
Mum: Ah yes, that's sounds familiar. I think I've seen it.
Me: Yeah it got made into a movie.

The Heroes of Heaven's Height
Lady Vesheq
God-blooded Proprietor of a Teahouse
Lady Vesheq is an attractive True Southern woman who appears to be entering middle-age. She has lustrous golden hair and smooth skin, and always smells faintly of lemon zest. She has a disarming smile when friendly, and when she is angry, small yellow bubbles start streaming around her head.
She is dressed in fashionable merchant-class Delzhan robes, and favors gold jewelry.
Lady Vesheq is the daughter of a Brakhani slave and the god of a lemon grove. She has lived in Chiaroscuro nearly her whole life, and has over the past two decades earned a market niche not only as the proprietor of a lucrative teahouse, but also selling her skills as a mid-wife and herbalist, helping various harem-slaves with unwanted… problems.

This is an excerpt from Alexander Maclaren, an author who I stumbled across on www.ccel.org while I was looking for commentaries on Luke. The more I read his stuff, the more I like what he has to say. This is from his book, Expositions on Holy Scripture: Luke, on his comments on the parable of the minas in Luke 19. He discusses the significance of our temporal lives in relation to our eternal inheritance, and I'm still having fun chewing on his perspective. Enjoy. Especially check out the last sentence.
But I pass from that aspect of the words before us to the other, which, I suppose, is rather to be kept in view, in which the faithfulness in a very little points to the smallness of this present, as measured against that infinite future to which it conducts. Much has been said upon that subject, which is very antagonistic to the real ideas of Christianity. Life here, and this present, have been depreciated unduly, untruly, and unthankfully. And harm has been done, not only to the men who accept that estimate, but to the world that scoffs at it. There is nothing in the Bible, which is at all
in sympathy with the so-called religious depreciation of the present, but there is this—'the things that are seen are temporal; the things that are unseen are eternal.' The lower hills look high when beheld from the flat plain that stretches on this side of them; but, if the mist lifts, the great white peaks come out beyond them, glittering in the sunshine, and with the untrodden snows on their inaccessible pinnacles; and nobody thinks about the green foothills, with the flowers upon them, any more. Brethren, think away the mist, for you can, and open your eyes, and see the snow-clad hills of eternity, and then you will understand how low is the elevation of the heights in the foreground. The greatness of the future makes the present little, but the little present is great, because its littleness is the parent of the great future.
Maclaren, Alexander, Expositions on Holy Scripture: Luke. Grand Rapids, Christian Classics Etherial Library. Page 291

01/10/2013 Under Road Bridge camp – Alumine
Well. Any hope of the wind having changed direction over night quickly disappeared. We set off with a ferocious head wind which stayed with us or should I say against us for the next 50 km and 1100m climb. Progress was agonisingly slow but the scenery became breathtakingly beautiful once more as we slowly climbed up to and beyond the snowline. After the last few days of monotonous desert we now had lots of variety again including miles and miles of ancient Monkey Puzzle tree forests. We cycled to within spitting distance of the Chilean border before crossing the river and turning on to an unpaved road which kept us in Argentina. This stretch has to be among the most beautiful tracks we have cycled so far. The downside was that it was slow going once again and we were way behind schedule so we were really pleased to find a little shop after 60 km or so which sold essentials. It was the only place of any description we passed all day. We were now ready to tackle the rest of the 50 km knowing we could stop, if time ran out, and camp whenever we wanted to. Not knowing which way or how strong the wind might blow makes planning really difficult. The views of the lake and then the river in the afternoon sun were fantastic and the track mainly downhill with even a bit of a tail wind so we pushed on to the town to find a bed finally getting in at 7 pm after 11 hrs on the move. Another superb day.

Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 monthPros:
Very small unit.
Round 30mm face makes panel mounting very easy (compared to a square or rectangular meter). I used a chassis punch to get a neat hole, but a 30mm hole saw would work just as well.
Orange "icon" logo and scale are very easy to remove and replace, making it easy to customise.
Build quality is very good for a unit of this price. Cover is attached with small tape tabs, but this makes access to the face easy and the cover can then be glued on more permanently if desired.
I ordered 5 of these. All of them work and all arrived individually wrapped in small plastic bags. While 4 had the ID stickers on the bag, one had it smack bang on the face of the meter and it took me a while to find a solvent that would remove the sticker without damaging the plastic! (I used eucliptus oil).
There is no mounting points. I ended up gluing them in place with electronics silicon (so that they can be peeled off and replaced if necessary.)
I am running these directly from micro controller outputs via a 10k resistor using PWM to set the needle position. The current is so small that back EMF from the coil does not seem to be an issue - at least I have not experienced any problems so far using this method and no "flyback" diodes.Bottomline:
Very pleased with these and I will be purchasing more.

I am so happy with how my dry erase laminated calendars turned out. These were a breeze to create using Heritage Collector Storybook software! I chose an 11x14 inch layout. I wanted something I could put on the fridge for menus or for keeping track of day to day events. Once they were complete I had them printed at Costco.
Laminating them was easy too. Alpha graphics had them ready to go within minutes. Once they were ready I attached four magnets to the back of each one. For writing on them I use a fine point dry erase pen. These types of pens come in many colors if you want to color code for children etc.
This last pic is of a framed 20x16 print. Instead of being laminated I write over the glass. Basically the same concept. We use this as a family event and menu board. It has worked great!


text: I was walking around the property today taking in the last bit of warmth we had here in the valley as the clouds drifted in and signs of autumn crept in with it. The weather is supposed to change to rain tomorrow and I made sure to take a moment (or two) and really enjoy wearing a tank top and walking barefoot through the grass. I happen to have a camera with me and captured a few shots as well.

Overdue house update..
This picture here is of our insulation. ooooh....aahhhh...., but more importantly it's a picture of Alex and our buddy Mark's hard work. On SuperBowl Sunday they insulated the ceiling and put up the sheet rock. Thanks again Mark! We have a taper coming on Monday afternoon, so Alex needs to get all the walls sheet rocked before then.

More than 500 Oklahoma City third-graders who failed a state reading test will be promoted to fourth grade after receiving exemptions.
Oklahoma City Public Schools officials announced Tuesday that the exemptions were granted for various reasons, including learning disabilities, English as a second language or satisfactory performance on an alternate test.
Earlier this year, the Oklahoma Department of Education said that 16 percent of third graders failed the reading test statewide and wouldn't be eligible for promotion unless an exemption was granted or the students pass an alternative test.
The Oklahoman reports that the Oklahoma City district will retain 636 third-grade students who did not qualify for an exemption, unless they pass assessments this summer.

Pradeep was walking on the road, neatly in-shirted and wearing shoes, a flattened hair with oil on the head makes him look more of a Civil services aspirant rather than a Volunteer of Seva Bharathi. This friend and collegue of mine is walking towards the slum nearby in Kachiguda the Sanjay Gandhi nagar near chadarghat. He has a programme there to supervise and has been closely working for a couple of weeks not mattering the time day / night. He knows all the 1500 population of the slum by name so is the case with all of them for pradeep calling him anna. Its the same with a couple of other slums Krishna Nagar and Kamgar Basti. Petty quarrels, family disturbances, depressions, domestic violence all all of them are handled by this one person. Its not just volunteering that pradeep is good at but buddy take note he can recollect any person by his footsteps or a touch no matter if you have met him a couple of years ago. Pradeep reaches the slum and gets greeted "Namaste Anna", (Hi Brother) responds with a "Namaste Akka or tammi or Anna" (Hi Sister / Brother thats a mark of respect attached to a person even if it is not ur own) and procedes to the near by house at the entrance of the slum. Wishes them takes a sip of coffee. The family works in the Municipal corporation of Hyderabad and they reserve their coffee session with Pradeep whenever he is visiting the slum.
Not that it is anything great or extra-ordinary for a person like Pradip or for me and my other collegues (we all are used to pradeep and treat him normally in my seven years working with Pradeep I hardly helped him fill an application form or taken him to a place that he wanted to visit and its the other way round whenever I wanted to go to some place he woulkd take me. Wondering how thats his ability thats how he is Differently abled). Only that Pradeep lost his Vision by birth. His father a small time tailor in Nizamabad tried all he could travelled as far as Mumbai to get the vision to his son. Pradeep can swim as deep as it is possible, drive a bike ofcourse with little support from Shivakumar another volunteer. Pradeep had a vision to work for people like him sometime later and now he is working with people like him but with less self Esteem than him. He's driving the motivational for them. Pradeep now works as the Public relations face or the reception incharge at the Nizamabad District Govt area Hospital.
It was holi and we all were drenched in colors after playing holi with the Slum dwellers and a group of friends while returning pradeep took the bike started and wanted shiva to sit behind him while with a direction here and there a LEFT a RIGHT and a slow speedbreaker ahead he was driving smooth when a Traffic police stopped us. Pradeep talked out to him and told him that they were comming from a nearby slum and thats how they missed the Helmet rule. The traffic police couldnt even make out to whom he was talking and all of us were looking normal. It was much later that when we settled we all burst into laughter what would have been the Police officer's reaction if only he was aware of Pradeep's differently abled status. I dont mean to highlight the risk and make him a heroe of such things but its a fact that most of treat them with pity, sympathy and other filthy words rather than treating them with respect equality and empathy.
And will quote one more incident from my experiences. I was reading out an article from Hindu that Pfizer foundation has financed a Differentlyabled person (visully) to scale the Mt Everest and was all wowing for him. Pradeep's reaction was take me to the base of Mt everest and I will take you to the top of Mt Everest. Thats Pradeep for me and Thats Differentlyabled for me.

Hobby Clinic - Constructed
August 6, 2011 9:00
"We make this wide encircling movement in the Mediterranean, having for its primary object the recovery of the command of that vital sea, but also having for its object the exposure of the underbelly of the Axis, especially Italy, to heavy attack."
-Sir Winston Churchill, 1942
That's one Tough Gut!
-General Mark W. Clark, 1943
On Saturday 6 August, 2011, the All American Gamers will host a historically themed, 1000 Point Late War tournament at Hit Point Hobbies in Southern Pines, NC. Entry Fee of $10.00 goes entirely towards prize support. http://www.hitpointhobbies.com/index.cfm
The theme is: Tough Old Gut, Italy January-June 1944. We are looking for 16-20 players. All are welcome but the first 20 to sign up will receive priority for slots. Lists should be in accordance with Axis and Allied forces fighting in Italy during the campaign period. Obviously, this coincides with the release of the new Cassino book and the revision of many Italy based PDFs. Any Western Front list from early 1944 would be acceptable, but proper Campaign Themed lists/histories will earn players an extra overall point. Please do avoid non-Italian campaign, a-historical units (i.e Normandy Royal Tigers etc.) Some useful Italian Campaign background links are througout the BF Website.
Importantly, there will be the potential for 50-300 points of list attrition or de-escalation as the tourney progresses (explained below) so take that into consideration when making your list. While this will be a competitive tourney, list-attrition and inter-round teamwork coupled with individual to Army-wide campaign decision-making will add to the interest and enjoyment. Battles will be fought on 4' x 4' tables with generally moderate to dense Italian themed terrain ranging from coastal plains and hillside vineyards/villages to rugged mountain foothills.
Tough Old Gut will be run similar to our very successful 2010 Drive on the West Wall tourney. For those that did not participate, an explanation of the Campaign flavor follows:
Players are divided equally between German and Allied (a few local players can adjust to ensure an even field) and a primary General is then appointed for each side. There is an overall Campaign map with 10 Campaign Axis of Advance. These Axes are divided between the Cassino, Winter Line and Anzio areas. Before each of the three tourney Campaign Rounds, the Primary Generals (in deep consultation with subordinates - or maybe not&) secretly determine which of their forces will fight on which Axis of Advance with the objective of advancing on all their Axes. At the end of the tourney, (besides normal FOW victory points) overall Axis/Allied Campaign Victory is determined and, pending victory conditions - either 0, 1 or 2 Overall points will be awarded to each player. This adds a real strategy and campaign flavor to the tourney. Scenarios are yet to be determined but will be from among the basic scenarios in Das Book.
In Tough Old Gut, each campaign axis will correspond with historical Italian towns/objectives from the Anzio-Winter Line-Cassino regions. Ultimate Allied objectives will be the roads to Rome, with German objectives being the Allied Communications Zone (COMZ). I am still working the finer points of the attrition/de-escalation rules, but basically, as you lose platoons destroyed, captured or run-off in the Campaign rounds, you will also lose a relative, nominal point value from your list (between 50-100 points per to a max of 300 points). This will be made up for with historical, random, points-based reinforcements from a pool. Germans may receive Fortification Points, Off-Board support (i.e. 150mm or even 280mm Anzio Annie), Sporadic Air, a small Panzer Platoon, an Elefant, a "Goulash Kannone" with PAK - or even elements of a Divisional Stomach Kompanie! Allies might see a variety of Air, Off-Board Heavy Artillery (ie. 8 Inch or 240mm), Italian Partisans, Tanks, or maybe a reluctant-trained but very-melodic Division Band! These are just examples, but essentially if you go into later rounds with less than your original 1000 points (almost certain for most) you will be made somewhat whole through the trusty and reliable reinforcement pipeline of your completely competent and ever-victorious GHQ!
Prize support will be based on entry-fees with some store doantion. Prizes will go to 1st, 2nd, 3rd Overall, Best General, Best Themed,Painted and the War Baby. National qualifier consideration is being worked out.
All of this should make for a very interesting and fun Campaign-Tourney. More detailed rules will be posted in late July. Please let us know if you will make it and what force you will bring (names of actual themed units preferred). Look forward to seeing you fighting up the Tough Old Gut.

day 129
Since Madi has been asking me about the pump and even one day demanding to get it, I told her she needed to have questions to ask the doctor today. Yesterday she thought about it and talked with Craig about it..
So today she asked the Endocrinologist a few questions.. like:
What does the pump look like?
How big is it?
Do I have to get shots still?
Do I have to have Lantus if I get the pump?
and how big is the needle?
The doctor was surprised at her asking about it. She said she has never had a 4 year old ask about the pump..I just told her that Madi has a hard time with the constant shots and that she was curious about the pump..
Well now we go to meet with a pump specialist and ask more questions, see the pumps and try an infusion set for a day or so.. Thats the next step. They are supposed to call me today to make the appointment.. Ha, the doctor told Madi to have Craig come along too.. Craig has NO interest in a pump, but it might be good for him to be there too I guess..
Right when he finished practice and we walked to the car I noticed he started to lose the color in his face..He was looking really pale so he did a check and he was 130 which is a good number, but I could tell that all of the physical activity was draining him and he was dropping quick..
He felt ill and very weak all of the sudden... He wouldnt eat or drink anything... He thought he was going to puke..
When we got home he just lay there until I finally insisted he eat something.. He felt so sick that he didnt have an appetite... I dont like seeing him like that..because mostly I feel so sad for him and there is nothing I can do to make it better... Thats hard..
So many times i wish he could be just a kid... A full of energy, worry about nothing, eat what you want, when you want kind of kid...but he cant...
1 comment:
My daughter did shots for 2 years before being interested in the pump. She started on the omnipod in August and loves it. It was the lantus shot twice a day and increased dosage that she was so tired of and ready to be done with. Again, seeing your son and him being my son's age and playing baseball really gets to me. So sad to see him feel that way. I hate what diabetes does to our kids.ReplyDelete

More from the Mind of Mindy...
1) I tweeted earlier this week that I wish our bladders were exterior organs, and detachable. This way when we leave a room in a hurry, people understand. People would know better than to sneak up on you to scare you, and if you rejected an offer to get on a trampoline, no would have to ask you why.
2) The detachable part is self-explanatory. It'll be the new, "Grab me a beer." Hey, are you going to the bathroom? Can you take my bladder with you?
3) I'm on a plane (probably as you read this), and that situation has made me rethink the exterior bladder scenario.

This is my maternal grandmother's recipe for chili. It's not hot, but very flavorful and extremely easy to make!
Cuisine: American-South Main Ingredient: Ground Beef
simplykymm3 ,
jdc6927h7l7h3q7p4n3 ,
sofiacampbell ,It was very good!
yankeesberra8 ,
kissablecupcake ,Great recipe!! I add some water, and extra spices because I don't such a thick chili but it is a wonderful recipe! My families favorite!!
aldrichmh ,I need to say also. This is on of the best recipes I ever made of chili. My wife loved it and while I don't like spicy this was really good
kellymcmullen ,My husband and I really enjoy this one to base our chili mix off of. We did change some things to the actual recipe as a whole, though: We recently added jalapeno rounds to the beef while browning and the flavor infused into the meat was amazing. Also used some smoked paprika with regular. Lastly, we use tomato juice instead of sauce/tomatoes. Chili mix is great though. YUM!
simplexityy ,
kissablecupcake ,Awesome recipe!! I've been on the hint for a good chili and I've found it!! My kids and husband love it!!
lifeimproves ,Very good recipe! Tweaked it a bit - I like adding Rotel tomatoes - actually added in addition to what was in the recipe. No Cayenne or Paprika, adjusted the chili powder. Family loved it. Thanks!
308wirenut ,I
mrsepiphany ,Turned out pretty good! My 2 & 3 year old really loved it... They kept saying "it tastes good mommy" as they ate it
dixiedistler ,Easy to make. Everyone liked it.
mississippimule ,Another great batch of chili my friend!! Thank you for sharing such a tasty receipt!!!
adina1029 ,My husband and I really enjoyed it. I followed the recipe exactly except for the diced tomatoes. I used the rotel diced tomatoes as someone else suggested in the reviews and it was really good. It actually tasted the best on day three when we took it to work for lunch. I will definetly make this recipe again. Oh also i did not include the cayenne because I added the rotel tomatoes.
jacksss ,Awesome chili! I made it today and its really tasteful the cayenne added a bit to much heat for my hubby so i added sugar to balance it out.. camw out wonderful!!
jpmck1224 ,I have made this my go-to chili and I always get rave reviews. I sometimes use bison but mostly grass-fed beef and with either it is absolutely delicious! Thank you!
lynn1775 ,Delicious and easy, best chili yet! Browning the veggies with the meat added a depth of flavor. Used a bag of frozen chopped onions and peppers. Cooked in crock pot on low for 6 hr. Will make again.

Something you have to forgive yourself for.
This is a hard one. Not hard to think of, just hard to admit. But for you, I will admit it.
I let myself become a victim.
I had a boyfriend. He was "great", but really, he was terrible. He never hit me. Not once. He used his words. He controlled my actions, he controlled my thoughts. He controlled my life and made me feel worthless. And I thought I loved him. Boy was I wrong. It came to a head when he camped outside my house one day and the police had to be called. He'd been there for more than 5 hours. He'd been on the deck outside my bedroom. He told me he was at school.
I spent months in therapy. I found my husband. I moved on in a way better way. But sometimes I still remember those times and wonder. How did I, a smart college graduate young woman, allow someone to overrun my life. How did I let him ruin my self esteem and self worth? How did I let my judgement become so compromised? I saw how people treated me, I saw that they no longer trusted me to make life choices. I was still a victim months after he was gone from my life.
And that is something I still work on everyday to overcome.

text: This considerably extended and completely revised second edition incorporates many new developments in the thriving field of numerical methods for singularly perturbed differential equations. It provides a thorough foundation for the numerical analysis and solution of these problems, which model many physical phenomena whose solutions exhibit layers. The book focuses on linear convection-diffusion equations and on nonlinear flow problems that appear in computational fluid dynamics. It offers a comprehensive overview of suitable numerical methods while emphasizing those with realistic error estimates. The book should be useful for scientists requiring effective numerical methods for singularly perturbed differential equations.

28 September 2015 A.D. Jewel's "Apology"—"…we have overthrown no kingdom…", p.79
Jewel, John. "The Apology of the Church of England." Project Gutenberg. 5 Aug 2006. http://www.gutenberg.org/files/17678/17678-h/17678-h.htm. Accessed 1 Aug 2015.
We give our Lord God thanks, whose only cause this is, there hath yet at no time been any such example in all the realms, dominions, and commonweals, which have received the Gospel. For we have overthrown no kingdom, we have decayed no man's power or right, we have disordered no commonwealth. There continue in their own accustomed state and ancient dignity, the kings of our country of England, the kings of Denmark, the kings of Sweden, the dukes of Saxony, the counts palatine, the marquesses of Brandenburg, the landgraves of Hesse, the commonwealth of the Helvetians and Rhætians, and the free cities, as Argentine, Basil, Frankfort, Ulm, Augusta, and Nuremberg; do all, I say, abide in the same authority and estate wherein they have been heretofore, or rather in a much better, for that by means of the Gospel they have their people more obedient unto them. Let them go, I pray you, into those places where at this present through God's goodness the Gospel is taught. Where is there more majesty? Where is there less arrogancy and tyranny? Where be the prince more honoured? Where is the people less unruly? Where hath there at any time the commonwealth or the Church been in more quiet? Perhaps ye will say, from the first beginning of this doctrine the common sort everywhere began to rage and to rise throughout Germany. Allow it were so, yet Martin Luther, the publisher and etter forward of this doctrine, did write marvellous vehemently and sharply against them, and reclaimed them, home to peace and obedience.
