At the end of last season, several of the JEM staff members took a balloon ride over the site. Yarko Kobylecky, the photographer at Chicago House, went along on the ride and kindly provided us with the aerial photos below.
The structures of Malqata are so wide-spread that they are best seen from the air – especially the Birket Habu. This ancient harbor is immense, measuring about 1.5 miles long and three-quarters of a mile wide. The photo below gives you some idea of its size.
Amenhotep III is noted for building on a large scale, but the Birket dwarfs all of his, or any other king's building projects. You can see this in the photo below.
The large temple at the lower right is Medinet Habu, built by Ramesses III (who ruled almost 200 years after Amenhotep III). This is the largest surviving structure on the west bank, and it would fit into the Birket Habu at least 10 times. The letters on the photo show you various parts of the site: A Amun Temple; B North Village; C King's Palace.
The Birket probably served a number of purposes. It was undoubtedly used to supply the palace city located at its northwest corner. It was probably also used for recreation by the people living at Malqata. And it was most certainly used during Amenhotep's festival ceremonies.

Many things need attention but this Friday Five* focuses on 5 unfinished things:
1. My sermon for this coming Sunday. God grant me wisdom and insight.
2. The wedding sermon and ceremony for my niece in May. Still largely not together. Bits
and pieces are there.
3. The pile of clothes that need to be bagged for donation. Yikes! That was to be a Lenten
act of stewardship. I blew that one big time!
4. Hemming my husband's linen pants for said wedding.
5. Finding sandals/shoes for the wedding that aren't a mile high and won't hurt my bunions
and feet, look cute and go with the dress. (This one may be a feat in futility!)
6. There is so much more - something for the potluck at the UM church Sat. evening, cleaning
house, wrapping my great-niece's birthday gifts - she'll be 2! Graduation card for my
niece with a check for getting her MD/PhD. Getting the van washed, an oil change needed as
well. And getting gardening work done and stuff planted in the midst of all going on.
*I am well aware this is Monday. I worked on my sermon and liturgy for Joy Sunday on
Friday morning, ran errands, tweaked a memorial service sermon. On Sat. I did grocery
shopping, filled the gas tank of the van, and officiated a memorial service, gathered items
needed for Joy Sunday - made a poster, got costumes, giveaways, cloths, my red nose, etc.
I ran around all Sunday morning, let worship, enjoyed the church brunch, drove the hour
home, filled the gas tank and plunked down for a nap. So Friday Five is late!!!!

With the disclaimers out of the way I can't in good faith just sit by and not say anything about the show that aired on the History Channel about Jesse James on the evening of 9 November 2009. My problems with this show don't even take into account anything said about the KGC.
I have lost all my faith in the History Channel as there wasn't very much verifiable information or in my opinion, truthful information in this show. The one outstanding truth during the whole show was stated by Mr. Pastore himself when he said he didn't know how to interpret the signs. This is true, he does not!
In case you think I am just being a spoil sport, I do know what I speak of. I had the unpleasant misfortune of working with Mr. Pastore on this same treasure site several years ago. He, in my opinion, is not someone you would want to work a site with. My own connection to Mr. Pastore was quickly severed by myself in just a couple of months because of the way he worked.
It is my opinion that the treasure they did "find" was planted before hand. Please watch this carefully and take note at how clean the coins are and especially how clean the jar is when it comes out of the ground. Anyone that has ever dug a jar or coin out of the ground will recognize this to be suspicious. Please keep in mind this is strictly my opinion and I have no proof that this is what occurred. I would ask that anyone that is tempted to contact Mr. Pastore for information or help with a treasure site be very cautious in doing so.
I could go on and on for days about the misconceptions brought about by this show but I don't want to dwell on something needlessly.
I apologize to the readers if this article is not what you expected. As I said, I could not in good faith let this go by without a warning to others based on my opinions.

• Sir Winston Churchill was a famously ardent lover of Champagne and perhaps its poet laureate, too: "A single glass of Champagne imparts a feeling of exhilaration. The nerves are braced; the imagination is stirred, the wits become more nimble." Though we prefer his more quippy stuff: "Remember, gentlemen, it's not just France we are fighting for: It's Champagne!" And like the British Bulldog, we too are "easily satisfied with the best." So it's only proper that his family's ancestral home and his birthplace, Blenheim Palace, has become the first such residence in the U.K. to open a Champagne bar (the grandiose 18th-century monument to Baroque excess is a tourist attraction, though the Duke of Marlborough still lives there). Though the royals prefer Bollinger, Blenheim serves Besserat, Lanson, a Blenheim label made by Baron-Fuenté, a selection of "savoury plates" and "afternoon tea bonbon trays" and-—of course—the Pol Roger Cuvée Winston Churchill. Meanwhile, at the recently opened Barclay's Center stadium for the Brooklyn Nets, the Duke of Brooklyn, Jay-Z, has his Champagne of choice flowing at both the Vault, which is a private VIP club, and an outlet of his 40/40 sports bar/nightclub hybrid. As regular readers of our Unfiltered column know, that tipple is Armand de Brignac's Ace of Spades, whose gold-plated bottles are stacked floor to ceiling in the Vault, where the likes of us will never see them.
• You won't see any construction cranes hovering over Sauternes first-growth Château d'Yquem, but significant renovations are under way. Its dry white wine Y (pronounced "ygrec") has a new, state-of-the-art micro-cellar with 10 small vats custom-designed and made in Italy for Yquem. On the outside, the vats are swank—"to avoid looking like a dairy," said general manager Pierre Lurton—but on the inside they are all business, designed for fermenting the wine in small batches, with two different temperature-controlled zones: the sides and the bottom, in ultra-smooth stainless steel. Y has often seemed like an afterthought. But since Lurton arrived in 2004, this wine has taken on a fresh direction. "It's made from the best terroir, the heart of Yquem," says Lurton of the 70-30 Sauvignon Blanc-Sémillon blend. Yquem picks the Sauvignon Blanc at optimal ripeness for a dry wine, intense and naturally plump with sugar, and then waits for the initial onset of botrytis on the thicker-skinned Sémillon.
Beginning with the 2011 vintage, arriving in stores in early 2013, Y has a new, très classy silver-and-white label and wooden case, though there will only be 830 cases (of 12) going around. "Distribution remains fairly confidential," admitted Lurton. Next up, the estate's main event, Château d'Yquem Sauternes, is also getting a renovated cellar. Due to be finished before the 2013 harvest, the cellar will have four separate temperature zones, giving winemaker Sandrine Garbay optimal conditions for fermenting and aging the successive waves of grapes brought in.
• While we ride out the effects of Hurricane Sandy this week stuck at home for… indefinitely, at least we have our Scotch (we love our wine, but warm Chardonnay is cold comfort in a Frankenstorm). The residents of Pennsylvania had recourse to no such restorative, as the state-owned Liquor Control Board decided to lock the doors on all 600-plus wine and liquor stores in the state Monday afternoon and all through Tuesday (no doubt to the special consternation of Pittsburgh and other western Pa. drinkers, who mostly just had a bit of rain). As they often do in such situations, Pennsylvanians sought refreshment across state lines, in New Jersey and Delaware; while transporting liquor back into the state is illegal, many residents have no qualms about circumventing the state monopoly, generally a favorite source of local griping, in a pinch. Stores that were able opened again Wednesday, but as of yesterday, half a million Pennsylvanians were still without power, leaving them still thirsty for a pour of something cold and dark as the hearts of the LCB.

I'm sort of in Fall denial right now, or rather the weather itself is in denial. About a week ago we had beautiful cool Fall weather and then only a few days later it changed back to sweltering middle of summer weather and has stayed there. I know it's Fall and the fact that it's 85 degrees outside isn't keeping me from craving and cooking warm and comforting Fall foods.
Tonight I decided to try making stuffed shells for the first time. I scanned the recipe on the back of the box of pasta shells but the recipe was for the entire box and was feeling way too lazy to figure out the measurements for the quarter of the box I was actually cooking. I just threw in what I thought would be good and left out the eggs, because well, putting in eggs just seemed weird and unnecessary.
- a large handful of chopped spinach
- a few scoops of part-skim ricotta cheese
- a few scoops of 2% cottage cheese
- maybe a 1/3 cup mozzarella cheese
- some parmesan
- and a few hefty shakes of basil, oregano, and italian seasonings
The shells boiled for about 12 minutes, got drained, slightly cooled, and then stuffed with the spinach and cheese mix.
Stuffed into a baking dish, covered in marinara, and baked at 350 for about 20 minutes.
It would have been super easy to cook up some quick chicken breasts while the shells were baking but I completely forgot to thaw out the chicken breasts. Instead I took the easy way out and threw some frozen (already cooked) shrimp into the microwave. Culinary mastermind, I know.
The end product was delicious! I'm guessing that adding the eggs might have made the filling a bit firmer but I really enjoyed the soft and creamy texture of it.
On the side I had an arugala and mixed greens salad with tomatoes, peperoncini, and olives. When it comes to salads I'm usually one to just buy the cheapest bag of spinach or a huge head of romaine and call it a day. Today I decided to splurge on a "fancy" (aka much smaller and more pricier) bag of greens and it really made a huge difference. The greens were so flavorful on their own I didn't feel the need to add any dressing outside of the toppings. I wish I could find arugala more often, this was the first time I've ever seen it in the grocery store.
I'm off to the gym for a little treadmill action, I know if I don't leave now I'll sit here all night.
What is your favorite salad green?

There is heartbreaking news from the world of unscripted programming, now, as it is rumoured that Big Brother 9 will be Davina McCall's swansong. Swanyelp. Whatever.
According to reports, Davina has tired of presiding over the Bungalow of the Damned, and recently switched agents with the aim of launching herself as an actor.
In one sense, the lane change feels overdue. Davina has long been thrilling audiences with her Garnier adverts, in which she really inhabits the role of a woman taking time out of a weekend away to update her mother on a recently self-administered hair colour makeover. My dear, when she impatiently reassures Mum that the process will not have damaged her hair - quite the opposite, it turns out, if that's not spoiling the denouement - I defy you not to be swept along in a wave of theatrical euphoria.
As for what sort of drama we'll be seeing Davina in, only time will show. But I think we can agree it's very much one for ITV.
In fact, screw it. Why bother being circumspect? Lost in Showbiz is willing to predict the exact show that will be built around Davina. Right now, some brainstorming producer is thinking, "We haven't seen a lady sleuth for a few minutes. Not since we axed Rosemary and Thyme. How about an UNCONVENTIONAL lady sleuth? Wait! Maybe she's a TV presenter by day! An unconventional lady sleuth who's also a TV presenter but younger than Rosemary and Thyme!
"I can't wait to see what mysteries she's going to unravel in her quirky little way - but unfortunately I'll have to, on account of I'm about to self-loathe my jaded, lazy self to the point of a much-needed breakdown."
They call this type of show a star vehicle.

Tom Hanks is not running for president, but he is trying to make America feel better about its next Commander in Chief.
The Inferno star delivered a heartfelt speech Tuesday night at the Museum of Modern Art's ninth annual film benefit in New York City. Hanks, the night's honoree and longtime Democratic supporter, assured the star-studded audience that "we are going to be all right" after Donald Trump's election. Steven Spielberg, Rupert Murdoch, Stephen Colbert, Emma Watson, Steve Martin and Hanks' wife Rita Wilson were just some of the famous faces in the crowd.
The speech also addressed filmmaker Michael Moore's recent suggestion that Hanks run for president. The Bowling for Columbine director argued on CNN that Democrats would be better off with a well-liked celebrity on their ticket — as Republicans have done with Ronald Reagan, Arnold Schwarzenegger and now Donald Trump.
"I don't know what to make of that," Hanks said of Moore's idea ahead of the benefit. "Really? Is this where we are? I don't think so. I wouldn't make a good CPA much less anything else," he added with a laugh.
Moore had also proposed that Oprah Winfrey run for president, and during the benefit's Hank tribute, the talk show mogul appeared via a prerecorded video and compelled one audience member to shout, "Run for president!"
Hanks never mentioned the President-Elect by name during the 10-minute speech. Read the transcript in full at EW.
While he might not be running for office, Hanks is set to receive the nation's highest civilian honor later this month. The two-time Oscar winner is one of 21 big names in the 2016 class of Presidential Medal of Freedom recipients, the White House announced in a press release on Wednesday.

Today, Chris was
finally able to relax after the completion of his assignment here.
The people he's been working with left a box of expensive and
beautifully packaged guan yin tea at our hotel--we found it on the bed just
now when we came in.
|Entrance to Jiao Tong University
|Graduates of Jiao Tong Da Xue
|Reading outdoor newspapers on the campus
|The graduates were celebrating, in their robes
|Old lady walking through the campus
|Chris' place of work,
with soldiers running
|Chris orders a coca cola
No worries about supper because Howard and Henry had offered to treat us. We were to meet them at the junction of Lines 6 and 8 at Nanluoguxiang station (a bit of a mouthful to pronounce), which is so new that it does not appear on my map, but we worked it out from first principles, and realised that, once there, we'd be within walking distance of Jingshan park. Chris wanted to relax on park benches again this afternoon, so that's where we headed after coming up to ground level at Exit B. This area, remarkably popular with non-Chinese tourists, is also not far from the Qianhai and Houhai Lakes and Beihai Park, so I didn't think we'd get too lost.
|Western couple on the slopes of Jingshan
This is a very famous view. It strikes me that the similarly extensive, strictly guarded Zhongnanhai compound behind the long red wall on Fuyou street today is not so very different from what this Imperial compound of old China used to be. The earth and rocks from the moat excavation around the Forbidden City, by the way, were used to create Jingshan, this "mountain" on which we stood looking down.
There's a gigantic golden Buddha in a temple at the summit of the Jingshan, to whom people were being encouraged to pray after the purchase of incense sticks and rosary beads. One lady I watched refused to pay for the extras but having stood and muttered with her fingertips together and having dipped her forehead to the cushion at the Buddha's feet, did slip him a 10-yuan note under one of the boxes of offerings. People of many different nationalities were sitting on the wall and benches or chatting in groups, including a large group of people who were Asian, but definitely not Chinese. I'm guessing Burmese, all the ladies in identical long golden, lacy dresses, some of them also wearing Mandarin hats bought from the gift shop. They and their menfolk were in a cheerful mood.
As we climbed back down the mountain we stopped to listen to a musician on a saxophone accompanied by an accordion player, entertaining a group of American and European students with a medley of music of their countries. He had an impressive repertoire, from the Marseilleise to Funiculi-Funicula.
took our time wandering through the bottom of the park then walked
back to Nanluoguxiang station to wait for Howard and Henry at Exit B.
They showed up dead on time at 5pm and we set off walking again:
supper was at a Korean restaurant on Qianhai Lake. We ate at an
outdoor table under the willow trees, the Beijing men doing the
ordering, fortunately. We shared all the dishes. My drink was a
surprisingly good, frothy tomato juice and Chris got two bottles of
the beer he likes. While we dined, lines of tourists went by in
groups following their leader who held up a flag. Howard said he
could "feel" that some of them were southern Chinese. After the
meal we did a slow circuit of the lake, past the street vendors
selling massages, kites and so on, constantly offered rickshaw rides
and seeing the sunset over a distant mountain. Before it was quite
dark a taxi ride with Howard and Henry took us back to the hotel,
past Ping'anli and under the intertwining Xizhimen road bridges.

Why, anyone would think that there is a general election coming up, wouldn't you? But with the Bis of Oxford incident the Tories show their real heartless colours. Gay marriage and the Tory treatment of the poor are enough for me not to vote for them.ReplyDelete

Hi David,ReplyDelete
I'm sure Cameron believes something vaguely Christian. The trouble is it seems his entourage isn't religious at all. Why else would he be trying to get the christian vote one second and the next being so dismissive of the church's teachings on charity and marriage? Also if he'd been speaking to a Jewish delegation to no 10, he'd have probably said he wanted to be Jewish or something (I believe he said to the Knesset his great, great, great grandfather was Jewish?). I know when the Sikhs went to see him he was lauding the religion religion etc, so to me it is the people behind the throne not understanding or seeing the inconsistency here. His advisers are terrible. Cameron is inept for listening to this advice. Miliband is no better and Clegg is a smug wet liberal. UKIP don't stand a chance, the BNP are anti-semitic racist thugs and the Greens are ecological loons.
Who to vote for???

Vince – What about you Josh?
Josh – Oh.. I don't know… I don't think I'm going to ask her to the dance.. she might say no. I have fear of rejection.. and it may cause anxiety..
Issac – Does that mean you're not going to the dance tonight? Because I'm not either.. We could have a sleepover if you want?
Vince – Oh come on guys! My mom and dad said they'd get me a limo for all of my friends, aka you guys!
Josh – …I think I'll pass. I'll hang with Issac tonight. You, Tommy, and Jordan can have fun without me.
Issac – *smiles* Cool. I have this new rock album I want you to listen to!
Josh – I'll listen to it while you read the new X-men issue! Deal?
Issac – DEAL!… I just have to ask my dad…
Vince & Josh – ………..
Jordan – Tommy… are you crazy? I'm not gonna hit Riley with a brick!
Tommy – Well he stole that girl you were talking to! Its like anything you can do I can do better! You have to kick his ass!
Jordan – I… If I get suspended.. my dad might-… I can't get into anymore trouble.. plus I have to try and be some sort of role model for Gay-Jay (AJ)
Tommy – AJ is gonna be gay when he's older! I just know it!
Jordan – Hey cut it out! only I can talk crap about my little brother!
Tommy – Back to the point! Riley needs to go down! He think's he's better than you!
Jordan – …. What if I punch him during gym class? In the locker room? Then I can tell the teachers it was self-defense!
Tommy – Or… you can wait till he goes home and hit him with a brick!
Jordan – NO TO THE BRICK IDEA! I DON'T WANNT KILL ANYONE!… besides.. I don't like violence! I just want to be able to play sports, and get good grades.
Tommy – You're such a square!
Jordan – Whatever, keep talking about hitting people with bricks, and you'll be in jail before you're 18!
Tommy – Nah.. I'm really sneaky with my stuff!
Vince – So Issac….
Issac – What?
Vince – Do you like my sister?
Issac – Who Vanessa? Ew! No!
Vince – I was teasing her this morning before school.. cause she never talks to guys! she's like an alien.. So she told me she had a crush on you.
Issac – Oh…. weird.
Josh – She's pretty! You should go get ice cream with her or something!
Issac – I-.. umm.. I don't know….
Jordan – WOW that car is sweet!
Vince – Aww crap I got dirt on my new pants….
Tommy – How much does a car like this cost Issac?
Issac – …I don't know…
Josh – Remember to ask him if I can sleepover okay?
Issac – Okay. I'll talk to you guys later, have fun at the dance…
Vince – See ya!
Jordan – I'll have twice the fun for ya.
Tommy – Someone can totally steal that car and make a million bucks
Josh – You're so stupid Tom-Tom! You can't make a million dallars off that car.
Tommy – I bet you could!
Jordan – Its not even mathmatically possible!
Vince – Here we go!.. guys more important issue here.. I have dirt on my pants!
Peter – Get in the car Issac!
Issac – Yes Dad….
Issac- Dad?
Peter – What? why do you keep calling my name?
Issac – You keep ignoring me..
Peter – What do you want?
Issac – I- Umm.. I was wondering if its okay if Josh sleeps over tonight?
Peter – After the dance?
Issac – We're skipping it.
Peter – Why?! Theirs girls, and music? You never talk about girls..
Issac – I.. I like them.. I think girls are great.
Peter – Why Josh? why do you always want to have these little gay sleepovers with him? He's fat! I don't want him eating all our food.
Issac – He's my bestfriend, and he's not fat, he's just a little chubby! everyone's not skinny!
Peter – I thought all of those guys were your bestfriends?
Issac – Josh's different.. I like him the best.
Peter – ……..
Issac – I don't know why you don't like him… Mom loved Josh.
Peter – Your mother is gone! no need in bringing her up!
Issac – Don't say it like that! Don't you miss her?!
Peter – Stop being so timid, and soft! Be a man!
Issac – ……… Dad you-… you didn't say if Josh can-
Peter – NO! No he can't! I'm not going to have this gay stuff going on.. you here me?
Issac – I'm not gay!
Peter – I have a date tonight anyway
Issac – Mom just died how could-
Peter – If you bring her up one more time.. I'm…
Issac – …… well can I sleepover his house then?
Peter – Do whatever the hell you want Issac… you obviously don't care about anyone but yourself!
Issac – Dad that's not true.. I care about alot of people.. I.. I still care about you even though you-
Peter – Oh get the f**k out of here with that sentimental bullshit! look.. get out of my face! Its probably best if you go sleep at your boyfriend Josh's house anyway. When I get home I don't wanna see you!
Issac – ……..I hate you. I wish mom was still alive…
Peter – I hate you too you little shit! You- Get out of here before I do something I regret! Go! Run to your boyfriend!
Issac – ……….
[End Of Flashback]
Issac – …………..
Riley – ….. I never knew he was that bad.
Issac – That was him on a good day….
Riley – So you were crushing on Josh then huh?
Issac – Yeah.. not that it matters, If my dad knew.. he'd… I don't know what he would have done.. maybe send me to military school.
Riley – Sucks he was such a dick.
Issac – …..Yep….
Riley – I can see why you don't want to go see him….
Issac – ….Maybe I should sing some ballad about it.. like they do on Glee.
Riley – Speaking of Glee, where's Kaitlyn?
Issac – She's out of town. She comes back in the morning.
Riley – A Job?
Issac – Apparently she's doing taxes for some big time celebrity.
Riley – Cool.. bitch gotta stay paid ya know?
Issac – (sarcastic tone) Fa… Sho….. So.. umm I was shocked you were still here when I woke up…
Riley – Well I thought it would be cool to wake up together..
Issac – So gay…
Riley – If gay means happy then, that's whats up.
Issac – Never say "That's whats up" ever again.
Riley – Or what?
Issac – I'll.. punch you.
Riley – Yeah right.. you like me too much…. Oh so speaking of which.. I broke up with Mira last night.
Issac – I see…
Riley – She's been soo moody and just.. keeping secrets 'n shit. I can't deal with her, I rather have you to be all the way honest.
Issac – ….
Riley – Sometimes I wonder if you even like me.
Issac – …I do.. god.. stop being so needy….
Riley – I'm not dude, I just can't read you! You're so… cold sometimes.
Issac – I don't mean to be.. I'm sorry.
Riley – Its okay, I can see why you're so.. what's the best way to put it… Your shells be hard. Yo… look at me droppin' that psychiatrist shit yo!
Issac – I think you're trying to say my exterior is- you know what nevermind.. you… you said it right.
No he didn't… but.. A for effort…
Riley – Well I should go, gotta get home, shower, nap.. then come back to the city for work…
Issac – I'd tell you to stay here, but I have lunch with an old friend, and then.. my modeling shoot.
Riley – My baby's a model.. f**kin' hot yo..
Issac – I'm not a model, I'm just seeing where it takes me.
Riley – Dude I'm proud of you.. I think its dope you just.. you just try shit you know? Like.. you're f**kin' fearless!.. Its some inspirational shit.
Issac – You.. Thanks Riley.. *smirk* People don't say that to me..
Riley – What the proud thing?
Issac – Yeah…
Riley – Well I'm your first… like I am when it comes to you bottoming.
Issac – … Dude! stop! whatever.. you like bottoming too!
Riley – You love it!
Issac – No I don't! You do!
Riley – *laugh* Whatever… I'm gonna go.. and I won't kiss you goodbye.. don't wanna be too gay for ya.
Issac – Good…Fag… *laugh*
Riley – Shut up…. I hate you *laugh*
Issac – You like me alot… its okay.. I'm irresistible.
Riley – …..True….. and I lied.. I'm gonna kiss you anyway.
Issac – You're such a girl…
Riley left, and I decided to clean the house a little bit. Mr Wiggles (Kaitlyn's cat) needed to be groomed so I did that too. Soon it was time for me to head out. I was meeting up with AJ. He was in town, and wanted to see me before he headed back to school. So I told him I knew this great place we could get lunch.
AJ – How did you find this place? I love it.
Issac – Vince, he said he came here recently.. The food was great.
AJ – Yeah I loved the pasta.
Issac – *smiles* So how are you?
AJ – Well.. Cloud and I aren't together anymore.
Issac – Sorry to hear that.
AJ – Yeah… he basically dumped me, kicked me out of his place and screamed "I'm not dating a tranny" This was all after he burned my wig.. my 400 dollar wig!
Issac – I'm sorry to- wait huh? Tranny? you-
AJ – No! I do drag. On weekends.
Issac – Oh! That's cool! I knew someone who did that.
AJ – WHAT? I thought you didn't have many gay friends?
Issac – When I was dating Kris, his friend Fuby Femma was a drag queen.
AJ – Oh cool, I'm probably prettier. Adriana Amore is pretty flawfree to be honest.
Issac – I bet.. you do have soft features, I'm sure you make a good drag queen.
AJ – *smiles* I really just.. I don't know.. I feel so alive! I feel like I'm experimenting, and just doing things. I'm learning more and more about gay culture! the good stuff! not the Lady Gaga, drugs, HIV stereotypes uninformed people put on us. Like really good stuff about who we are as people.
Issac – You've grown so much…
AJ – I have…. I umm.. notice anything?
Issac – No?
AJ – I take a little part of everyone who's been important in my life. Look at my jacket! its leather.
Issac – Aww.. look at you being a little hipster.
AJ – Whatever, I lie to people.. I tell them this jacket has a story.
Issac – Oh really?
AJ – Yeah I tell them.. the first guy I ever had sex with gave it to me, after we made love under the stars in the park.
Issac – Much more romantic than when we actually did it in your room, on that twin bed.
AJ – Oh my god, and you kept shushing me, my mom wasn't even home
Issac – Robin has mutant hearing.. she could have heard it from the driveway…
AJ – Maybe…
Issac – So what's this guy's name? from your story?
AJ – Issac.. duh.. that part is true, I just changed how and where we did it.
Issac – Cool.
AJ – Its so weird, to think about our… relationship?
Issac – ….Is that what you'd call it?
AJ – I still consider you my first boyfriend.
Issac – …I'm honored.
AJ – *laugh* ….You turned me into such a slut I swear.
Issac – Hey, that's not possible…. you are what you are.
AJ – *laugh* It almost seems wrong to think about you naked now.
Issac – You still think about me naked?
AJ – Oh yeah.. you're like a 20 out of 10.. lets be real, I'll never find anyone as hot as you. Also.. Its awesome to tell people I dated a model
Issac – I'm not a model
AJ – Yet!… you sexy b***h
Issac – You're something else AJ you know that?… Its awesome to see how much you've grown.
AJ – I've grown in alot of ways *wink*
Issac – Stop flirting with me! *laugh*
AJ – I can't help it, I've become such a flirt… but you know.. I should stop.. we ARE brothers now technically.
Issac – ….
AJ – Don't worry I'm not going to tell you to go see Peter.. Us hanging out is for us to catch up, I'm not in the business of telling other people what to do.
Issac – I appreciate that.
AJ – You better b***h!….
Issac – …. *smirk*
AJ – I've turned into such a queen.. I know.. but whatever I embrace it. I slay the gorls and they all know it.
Issac – Damn straight!
Issac – Damn..
AJ – What?
Issac – I feel like I know my way around the city already.
AJ – Good.. next time I visit, you can show me some of your favorite places. Is their any gay clubs here? Like where they do drag shows?
Issac – Not sure, but I'll find out.
AJ – Ooh hello.
Issac – Umm.. hi?
AJ – No not you…
Issac – What?
AJ – That guy over there.. he's looking at me.. he's hot.
Issac – ….well I'm sure his wife doesn't appreciate that.
AJ – Oh I didn't even see her!…. he's still cute though.
Issac – Yeah, I agree.
AJ – Well this is me!… thanks for walking me to the subway.
Issac – Its something I've been doing alot of lately.
AJ – What?
Issac – Whenever I hangout with people I usually walk them to the subway..
AJ – Oh… *laugh* So umm. If you're ever in town call me okay? I'd make sure you had tickets to see me perform and stuff… and who knows.. in another 3 years I might have made a name for myself!
Issac – You might end up performing at one of the clubs here.
AJ – I see my name in lights, I'm like Christina Aguilera in Burlesque! except way more talented.
Issac – *laugh* I can see it happening.
AJ – Love ya! and I'll talk to you soon okay?
Issac – Alright… um.. love you too AJ…..
AJ – That was so hard for you huh? *laugh* Its okay, I wasn't expecting it back.. but I do appreciate it.
Issac – We're family now remember?
AJ – Awww.. well ciao big brother!
Issac – Bye.. safe travels.
AJ – For sure.
Its crazy to think that AJ, and I once had an intense…"situation" and now, he's my stepbrother. All that aside, its pretty cool to see him come into his own. It goes to show you that not all gay- well not all people are alike. AJ, and I are gay, but we couldn't be anymore different. Its cool that he's thrown himself into gay culture, and is doing the acting, performing thing. I…. I just go where the wind takes me. Don't get me wrong, when I dated Kris and we went to all those gay clubs, with all his friends. I enjoyed myself, but I'm more of a relaxed person you know? Sometimes bright light and loud music is just not my scene. Which is funny considering I'm on my way to a modeling shoot.
I was so happy Vince was shooting it, not only is he one of my bestfriends, but he was a great photographer. Vince may have his bad qualities, but one of his best ones is the ability to inspire people. Vince brought along his entourage of people. This guy named Richie Sampson, Cashmere, Liana, and some guy named Max Johnson that kept giving me these looks.
Liana – I love that camera Vince, the fact that I can digitally edit the light and you haven't even took a single pic yet is amazing.. move slightly to the right.
Vince – Yeah its amazing… Okay how am I now?
Liana – Perfect!
Vince – Thanks
Liana – We make a good team.
Max Johnson – Blah blah blah! You know Vince, that chick totally wants to bang you.
Vince – Max I've forgiven you for the club incident, you said you wanted to start over so.. lets not mess it up with ridiculous stuff about my assistant okay?
Max Johnson – Right.. right. So this Issac guy… you grew up with him?
Vince – Yep, he's like a brother.
Max Johnson – Is he gay?
Vince – Are you homophobic or something?
Max Johnson – No? I'm just curious because the way he's holding that- the other guy…
Vince – If you're curious about Issac's sexuality then ask him. Now stand back and let me get this picture.
The theme of the shoot, was about love, and war. The tagline was "Let's fight the War at home" and by war they mean equality for LGBT members, and you know, stuff like homeless youth and stuff. I have to admit I was feeling pretty badass in my army gear. Poor Gavin barely had anything on.
Gavin – You smell good
Issac – Thanks?
Gavin – Take a compliment silly.
Issac – Alright.. I accept.. Umm.. how am I doing with this modeling stuff by the way?
Gavin – You're doing great.. like a natural.
Issac – Cool….. That Max Johnson guy…. he's a dick huh?
Gavin – ……I don't know…
Vince – Okay lets try something on the ground next to the water.
Gavin – Alright.
Issac – Just lay down?
Max Johnson – Uhh.. duh!
Issac – Like this?
Vince – Yeah that's good.
Max Johnson – ……Do they have to be that close?
Vince – Really Max?
Max Johnson – …Fine…
Gavin – This sand is so warm.
Issac – You guys sure this pose is okay? It feels awkward.
Vince – That's modeling for you. It may feel awkward but it looks great in the picture. Let me take two more pictures of this, and then I need to change cameras. Issac I need to do some solo's of you too, then you Gavin.
Gavin – Okay
Issac – Solo…. crap
Gavin – Just, do you know David Beckham?
Issac – Soccer player who does those underwear ads?
Gavin – Yes! just pretend to be him!
Issac – Umm.. Alright.
Vince – I never thought you'd model… this is funny on so many levels
Issac – Is it bad?
Vince – No, its funny because you look really good, like a professional.
Issac – Really?… hmm.. cool. *smirks*
Liana – Lookin' good Issac.
Issac – Thanks.
Richie Sampson – So.. umm.. Hi.
Cashmere – Hi there.
Richie Sampson – Enjoying the shoot?
Cashmere – Yes, very much so. Issac and Gavin are such pretty men.
Richie Sampson – Are those the kind of men you like?
Cashmere – …I'm more into guys with suits.
Richie Sampson – Oh? OH!.. I'm wearing a suit.
Cashmere – Would you look at that! you ARE wearing a suit!… I'm just pulling your leg.. Vince told me you liked me.
Richie Sampson – I've been nervous to talk to you.
Cashmere – Don't be.. I like you too Richie, and if you did ever want to take me out to dinner.. I'd say yes.
Richie Sampson – *smiles* Really?
Cashmere – Yes.
Issac – Cashmere, and that Richie guy sure are hitting it off…
Vince – Isn't it great?
Issac – Yeah….
Vince – If I didn't know any better I'd think Gavin and MJ were hitting it off.
Issac – Who's MJ- MJ?
Wait.. Gavin said he was dating a guy who was in the closet… with the initials M & J… Is Max Johnson his guy?
Vince – MJ is Max, he's over there talking to Gavin, I was joking about them hitting it off, Max is straight.. I've seen him at strip clubs…
Heh… he must be a great actor.. because according to Gavin he's gay…
Issac – Cool.
Vince – What are you doing with your arms?
Issac – Channeling David Beckham- I have no Idea…
Vince – No! its working.. hold that pose.
Issac – Okay
I wonder what Max, and Gavin are talking about.. can't hear them from here.
Max Johnson – You better not be sleepin' with that guy.
Gavin – I'm not… goodness..
Max Johnson – After this shoot I want you at my place you got that?
Gavin – Could you be nicer about it?.. why are you always so mean? I know the sweet part of you.. you rarely show it.
Max Johnson – Are you sure you're not into this guy?
Gavin – Positive, he's just a friend.
Max Johnson – I don't want to have to break his neck.. you know I'm on parole…
Gavin – Lets stop talking about this.
Max Johnson – Fine… for now.
After the shoot…. I decided… life's too short. So I was going over to GloCity… It was too late to do what I needed, but in the morning I could. I asked Josh if I could stay at his house, and he said yeah. I went home, got Mr Wiggles and took him to the neighbor. I was on my way to GloCity….. Home sweet home…
When I arrived at Josh's place, he was already in his Pajamas. I had forgot to take something to sleep in so he gave me his ghostbusters shirt, and some ugly pants.
Issac – So where everyone?
Josh – My mom, and dad are at some Casino resort.. They're trying to get the romance back in their lives.
Issac – Oh that's nice.
Josh – I guess so, its just weird that they still do sex.
Issac – Gross…. So how come you're not with Sasha tonight?
Josh – She's swamped with work…
Issac – Still worried about that Shannon guy?
Josh – …..Nah.. I won't let it bother me.
Issac – Good. I don't think you have anything to worry about. Its not like she's her mother (Mia)
Josh – I know…… So how was the shoot? Mr Model
Issac – It was actually pretty fun.
Josh – Would you do it again
Issac -….. F**k yeah *laugh*
Josh – I can see you being a model..
Issac – You can?
Josh – Yeah.. you're hot.- I just mean you're cute.. you're a cute guy. I can see people seeing you in a magazine, and just wanting to pinch those cheeks.
Issac – Why do you say stuff like that?!
Josh – Like what?
Issac – Gay things!… Its confusing…
Josh – I-…. I'm sorry…
I….. Its so hard to be mad at him, its just that he knows how I-…. *sigh*
Issac – ………..
Josh – ………..
Issac – You didn't have to apoligize, I did. I didn't mean to yell at you.
Josh – Its okay.. I didn't realize that some of the things I say might-
Issac – Don't ever change.. you're just you. That's just how you talk… I shouldn't have gotten mad. Its one of the things- its one of the reasons I loved you or whatever…
Josh – ….I don't think before I speak sometimes. I just.. I've always joked around with you like that, and it would feel stupid not doing it anymore. I want everything to be the way it was. Maybe I'm fooling myself thinking it can be?
Issac – No… it can.
Josh – Good, and I just meant that you have a really good look, so I can see the modeling thing working out.
Issac – … Thank you.
Josh – …*smiles*
Issac – *smirk* So you decide on taking Kane up on his offer? to be his roomy?
Josh – Not yet… I need to give him an answer soon though.
Issac – I think you should.
Josh – Yeah?
Issac – Yeah, why not? If it all goes to shit, atleast you could easily come back home. You have good parents.
Josh – My dad's annoying.
Issac – Really? atleast he's not Peter.
Issac – Josh?
Josh – Yeah?
Issac – Thanks for being my bestfriend. I couldn't have gotten through… alot of things, if it wasn't for you and the guys, mainly you though.
Josh – Of course. You're my bestfriend forever.
Issac – Promise?
Josh – Pinky swear.
Issac – Okay. I'm just lucky to be friends with you… you never treat me bad, and you never walked away, even when I told you I love you.. you were still there.
Josh – It didn't change anything….
Issac – ….
Josh – Earlier, you said "That's why I loved you" … "Loved" meaning past tense. Are you saying you don't anymore?
Issac – I love you as a friend obviously, as far as those other feelings go… they're slowly going away..
Josh – Because of Riley?
Issac – …..ugh..
Josh – You can admit it.
Issac – Yeah.. f**k… because of Riley… ugh I hate saying it outloud.
Josh – For the record.. I think you and Riley fit.
Issac – …I guess so….
Issac – *sigh*
Josh – What's wrong?
Issac – I'm so grumpy…
Josh – You've always been quiet and mysterious. I wouldn't call it grumpy.
Issac – No, I'm grumpy, I'm no fun. Lately I've been so upset. I've sorta known why for a while, but I didn't want to face it…
Josh – Why?
Issac – Because as much as I ignore it… I'm still pissed at my dad.. for everything. What I'm holding on to, is whats making it hard for me to open up, and be happy.
Josh – Well all that is going to work itself out. You're here, and you said you're going to see him in the morning.
Issac – Can you come with me?
Josh – Of course. I was gonna tag along either way, you didn't have to ask.
Issac – Okay…
Josh – Do you know what you want out of the conversation?
Issac – No?… but I know what I don't.
Josh – What's that?
Issac – I don't want to walk away angry..
Josh – I'll be there with you, so.. whatever happens you'll have me.
Issac – ….Why couldn't you be gay *laugh*
Josh – *laugh* Just the way the cookie crumbles.
Issac – We're missing your favorite episode of Avatar…
Josh – That's what the rewind button is for.
Do you guys think I'm mean?.. or… – I don't know. I mean Josh is right, I've never really been super emotional in any sense of the word. I guess I could stand to be a bit more cheery? I want to be fun Issac, and I don't feel like I am.. I don't know. Whatever, I'm not a complainer though.. when and If I do get out of this slump.. it'll come naturally, I don't want to force anything.
The next morning, Josh and I headed to the hospital. I still couldn't believe I was doing this….. after everything he's done to me, but it was time. It was time we had a talk.
Vanessa – Hey Josh.
Josh – Hi Vanessa.
Vanessa – Everything going okay?
Josh – Yep, how are things with you?
Vanessa – Good.. good.
Josh – Cool.
Vanessa – You came to support Issac I assume?
Josh – He doesn't need my help, but… I'm here anyway.
Vanessa – You two have always had this…. really good friendship.
Josh – Yeah, we try.
Vanessa – I never really had a friend like that.
Josh – Never too late.
Issac – Hi I'm looking for Peter Bennett? He's my father.
Quinn – Umm, I think he's in room 103
Issac – Thanks- umm?
Quinn – Quinn.. My names Quinn.
Issac – Thank's Quinn.
Oh my god… Quinn.. Kaitlyn's ex!…. Eh I better not tell her my name, Gavin might have filled her in on things…
Issac – Are- are you new here?
Quinn – Yeah I've been working here for maybe 3 weeks now? I moved here from Bridgeport so.. had to find a job. I worked at the hospital there, so it was easy to get a position here.
Issac – Cool. Well alright.. I'm gonna go see… Peter.
Quinn – He's your dad? You guys look alike.
Issac – …yeah. Have a good day.
Quinn – You too… Also by the way.. I know you- I know what you're going through.. with Peter… time heals all wounds trust me. I didn't have the best relationship with my father either.
For a second I thought she was going to say she knew who I was, and my connection to Kaitlyn
Issac – Thanks.
Quinn – I hope I'm not overstepping any boundaries. When you go through something.. its best to have someone there for you.. for support. My brother Gavin is my rock.. we're super close. I hope you have someone like that.
Issac – I do, my bestfriend.. Josh.
Quinn – Good *smiles* Well alright I have to go. Have a good day
Issac – You too.
Well.. that was awkward…. anyway with that done… It was time I go see my dad…
Press Play for scene to work with music
Peter – I'm… I'm surprised.
Issac – ….You're not the only one. I'm surprised I'm here too
Peter – Son, I'm-
Issac – Before you say anything, just let me get what I need to get out.
Peter – Okay.
Issac – You just didn't wanna die huh?…. stubborn old man. You've always been that way. Everything on your time.
Peter – Yeah…
Issac – …We don't need to go through every bad thing you did to me, that would be pointless, we both lived it… we both have made our peace with it.
Peter – ….
Issac – Theirs things I do wonder though. Why? did you hate me or something? You treated our dog better than you treated me, and I never understood why. I often wondered if it was because deep down, you knew… you knew I was gay.
Peter – No.
Issac – ……When mom died… you changed so much. You were never that good of a father, but things got so much worse when she died.
Peter – ….I was terrible.
Issac – You didn't seem to care about her being gone, or me being upset about it. You went straight to hooking up with other women, its like you didn't have time to grieve. It also seemed like you wouldn't allow me to either.
Peter – ….I didn't allow you to mourn your mothers death, because I didn't allow myself to, you're absolutely right.
Issac – I hated you so much.
Peter – I….
Issac – then I got older, and… I became an adult. I thought things would get better.. and then- well you know… you used me for business deals.. then..- like I said. No point in a history lesson. I guess what I really want to know is, why did you hate me, do you know what you did was wrong, and why did you decide to change for Robin, and Jordan.. but not me.. your son.
Peter – I have no excuse for the way I've been to you. You are my only son, and I never really treated you like it. I should have been grooming you to take over my business and-
Issac – Why didn't you?
Peter – You'd never go for it.
Issac – …. True.
Peter – My father was a tyrant, and I just repeated his mistakes with you. I'm really sorry I robbed you of a childhood.
Issac – ….
Peter – Because of my actions I can see that you have a hard time with emotions…
Issac – …..
Peter – You don't have to admit it, I can just tell. Anyway umm… I couldn't except the fact that Claire (Issac's mom) was gone. She had left us, she had left me to raise you alone. She was my everything… and I guess part of me blamed you for taking her away from me.
Issac – Why?
Peter – When you were young she spent all her time with you.. I was her husband and I got no attention.. None.. Its stupid now that I think about it. I should have been spending time with you too. All three of us.
Issac – All she did was talk about you.. how great you were. Which confused me because you were pretty much Lucifer to me.
Peter – She died, and I didn't mourn her.. No grieving period was ever had. So I didn't allow you to either. Instead I took all my anger out on you. I'm sorry for that, and I know it was wrong. I know it doesn't make up for anything…
Issac – It doesn't.
Peter – But… It still needs to be said.
Issac – ….. So why- why Robin? She's a sweet woman, but.. how did she change you?
Peter – After what I did to you.. she cursed me out. Then.. she saw through my arrogance, and she saw I was hurting. She and I then.. It sorta just happen. We'd spend time together, and she'd tell me how much of a monster William (Jordan & AJ's Father) was.. I realized.. I was no better to you. Hearing about her life, made mine a reality.. suddenly I was sick to my stomach and hated what I had done.
Issac – ….
Peter – Their was no justification at all.. I was WRONG.. period point blank. I.. I ran you out of my life.
Issac – …You did.
Peter – Then I just used the gay stuff as a personal attack.. I knew it would hurt you. I have nothing again gay people… Robin taught me alot about gays. AJ's gay and I love him like he's my own. I love Jordan too, but I know its hard for him to-
Issac – Its so f**ked up that the first time I hear you say you love someone, its not me.. I- I understand you changed but.. hearing you say you love Robin, and Jordan , and AJ… all I ever wanted to hear was you say that to me growing up…
Peter – *crying* I'm so sorry for everything son. If you never want to see me again, I'll accept that, and I'll be happy for this moment of truth between us.
Issac – …You suck as a father…
Peter – I know…
Issac – and I hate myself for forgiving you.
Peter – I don't deserve that… I don 't but it what I want so badly…
Issac – …. we can't start over…
Peter – ….I know.. its too late…
Issac – No.. I mean.. we can't start over… but… we can just continue… but differently.
Peter – Thank you… Its all I want.
Issac – Slowly.. don't expect me to..- I just want to take it slow…
Peter – Okay.
Issac – I'm gonna go… Josh is waiting outside for me…
Peter – You and him.. always together. He's one hell of a friend.
Issac – He is…
Peter – Thanks for…
Issac – This needed to happen… umm.. maybe I'll come back tomorrow? We can look at old pics of mom? I have some stuff from vacations we took.
Peter – Jordan said you guys went to Mango Island… you loved it there as a child.
Issac – Yeah… It was the same too.. just like I remembered.
Peter – *smiles* Maybe as a family, You and I, Robin, and Jordan, and AJ.. we could all go… no time soon though…
Issac – ….Never say never.
Peter – …..
Issac – Well I'll be seein' ya.. be nice to the nurses…
Peter – I'll try. Bye son.
Issac – Bye….dad.
I…. don't have any words at the moment… I'm in shock that I just had that conversation…. I need a minute or two… I'll see you guys again soon….

Leeds United manager Neil Redfearn has stressed that his team can go and get points anywhere.
Leeds United manager Neil Redfearn has told the Yorkshire Evening Post that he feels his side can go and get a result anywhere.
Leeds have won three out of their last four games, including wins away at Huddersfield Town and Reading, which have given the boss the belief that his team can start picking up points away from Elland Road.
"We know now that we can go and get points from anywhere. It's not just a case of looking for results from certain games," said Redfearn.
"No matter what happens on Saturday, we've got another 15 games after that game."
Leeds' form on the road would have definitely been a concern for the manager.
They have lost eight games away from home this season - which is more than Millwall, who currently occupy a standing in the bottom three - but that record has been improved by the recent victories.
Redfearn clearly believes the side's chances of progressing up the table are better than they have been over the last couple of months.
He seems to have found the right system to get the most out of his players and the club's position has been slowly improving.
He'll also be impressed with the grit and determination the side showed to bounce back from defeat against Brentford last weekend.
If they win most of their games at Elland Road and add points gradually away from home, they won't go far wrong as they look to break into the top half of the table.
The side now have to press on and make the most of their home advantage against Millwall this weekend.

Despite many important developments in dental materials and minimally intervention techniques, in many parts of the world, most restorations tend to continue to be of a traditional form, and the material most widely used in dentistry is still amalgam. The drawbacks of amalgam as a restorative material are the presence of postoperative tooth sensitivity, susceptibility to fracture of the restored teeth, microleakage and high incidence of development of secondary caries. The reason for most of the drawbacks is due to its inability to bond adhesively to the dental substrates.
Varga et al. in 1986 first suggested the idea of applying adhesives to the walls of the cavity preparation prior to the condensation of amalgam. Current adhesive materials such as Panavia 21 and Amalgabond Plus are resins that contain bifunctional molecules that have an affinity for metal at one end and an affinity for monomers at the other end. Wilson and Kent first introduced glass ionomer cements (GIC) in 1972.It is suggested that glass ionomers could bond chemically to metal oxides like Silver and Tin oxides.Because silver and tin are the major components of amalgam, the bond between GIC and amalgam is expected to be high.
Glass ionomer has been widely advocated as a protective lining under permanent restorative materials. However, few studies have been performed on the use of glass ionomer to bond amalgam. Primarily, resins have been used for bonding amalgam.Chen et al. compared restorative glass ionomer and resin to bond amalgam, and stated both to be equally effective in bonding amalgam.The use of glass ionomers can provide advantages like decreased microleakage and postoperative sensitivity while increasing resistance to fracture of both tooth and amalgam as compared with unbonded amalgam restorations. Several different glass ionomers are presently used in restorative dentistry.

I have a problem. I admit it. I'm addicted to coupons. I love paying as little as possible for as much as possible. My husband fuels the fire. He feels the excitement of a good deal just as much as me. And that's pretty incredible when you think about his affinity towards $250 Diesel jeans and $75 Modern Amusement t-shirts. A quick tally of the value of his closet equaled my first two years of tuition at Iowa State. But that was all before he met me. Somehow I've been able to pass on my love of bargains.
Hereis a quick rundown of the coupons we've cashed in this week alone:
1. Yesterday I brought a coupon in to our local Aveda store for a free sample of body wash.
2. Today we used a coupon to get a free sandwich at the new Bruegger's Bagel Shop down the street from where we live.
3. This morning we got coffee at Starbucks and used a "Buy 1 Get 1 Free" coupon we clipped out of a local paper. (We still have quite a few more we clipped out!)
4. I got a free pumpkin pie from Earth Fare. ($6.99 value!)
5. I saved 10% on my purchase at Home Depot with a coupon I got in the mail.
6. Curtains I bought at Bed Bath & Beyond were 20% off thanks to another coupon. (I did end up returning them, though.)
7. Tonight we were going to go get ice cream at Maggie Moo's using a Buy 1 Get 1 Free coupon I got by signing up for their mailing list.
And although we didn't really use a coupon we did get a great deal on tickets to Europe. We're flying into London in March where we got TWO FREE NIGHTS at a sweet hotel. The normal price would have been $440. Plus the plane tickets were a bargain as well- $460 round trip for a direct flight from Atlanta to London.
AND I might add… we are heading to New York City for Thanksgiving weekend where we will have one free night at a Hampton Inn. The hotel double charged us by mistake for some rooms we booked during the wedding. They were nice enough to compensate us for their mistake by giving us a free night anywhere so we picked NYC!
Who knows… if it weren't for coupons we may not be able to afford all of these fun trips!

American Citizen goes missing in West Sikkim
GANGTOK, October 15: An American national Samuel (Sam) Mitchell has gone missing in Sikkim for the past eight days forcing his concerned Chinese wife Lu Yuan to alert the authorities here about her missing husband.
The missing American is aged 53 years and had entered Sikkim on September 26 from Kolkata, said his wife in an email statement. She has already intimidated the authorities here about her missing husband and the police here are trying their best to trace the missing American who has vanished since October 7.
According to Lu Yuan, she had last spoken to her husband on a disturbed mobile phone line on October 7 where Mr. Mitchell had told her that he would reach her home in Kumming, China on October 11.
During the last call, Mr. Mitchell had told his wife that it was raining very heavily in some place in Sikkim.
"He (Mitchell) entered Sikkim on September 26 through the land border but has not left Sikkim from what I can gather. My husband always advises me if his plans change. However, I have not heard from him after October 7", said Lu Yuan expressing her fears that her husband may not be in a position to call and could have suffered an accident. Calls to his mobile number have been futile as the calls state power off, she said.
Lu Yuan said that she had given the details to the American Consulate on October 12.
"My husband is definitely missing whilst on a tourism trip in Sikkim. It is quite possible he is hurt and needs urgent attention. Maybe he is in some village or location where there is no electricity or connectivity", Lu Yuan said in her email statement.
In a disturbing development over the missing person incident, Lu Yuan informed that someone unsuccessfully tried to use Mr. Mitchell's credit card in Kolkata on October 13.
Stating that she will be coming to Sikkim to find her husband, Lu Yuan has appealed the authorities here to find Mr. Mitchell who is suspected to have disappeared somewhere while touring West Sikkim.
East Sikkim Superintendent of Police (SP) Dr. Mandeep Singh Tuli informed that Sikkim Police is making all efforts to locate the missing American. We have checked all the hotels here in Gangtok and West Sikkim police are checking all the hotels in that District, he said.
"We are making all efforts to trace him", said Dr. Tuli

In honesty, though, it really has been quite nice and I don't recommend scheduling to have your gallbladder removed just to get a vacation. A vacation I have NOT had since being home bound. But I have been very busy with my knitting, card writing, reading, and television watching. (I forgot how much I do so enjoy Jane Austen. Since I have been incapacitated I have re-read three of her novels: Pride & Prejudice, Sense & Sensibility, and currently in Emma.)
My knitting is coming along very nicely as I have completed already one pair of socks, a block on a friendship scarf that was given to me back in June (Yikes, I am starting to question my ability to fulfill friendship obligations! It was Littlest Miss who found it still in my stash and reminded me with quite the scold, "Weren't you given this back in June?" as she was with me the day it was handed over), a bicycle helmet ear muff, and two miniature socks to dress the peacock.
As per my normal operating procedure, photos of the newest finished items are yet to be uploaded, but I do have some of the previous year's finished items that I have not posted before. And one item, that has now become very clear, is safe to post as it was not chosen for the layout. Without further adieu, I give you:
Grinchy Grinch Socks:
These were a *^%$# to knit. The 'Whisper' yarn used kept getting snagged. The pattern wasn't the clearest (Very Likely User Error- I am admit that upfront) but it should have made a note that if they want you to change needle sizes for one thing, make a note to change back the needle size for further knitting. (Which can you tell they didn't and so the first sock is a BUGGER to get on and off. No you can't just cut it and make it wider. No you can't just add more yarn. No I don't want to rip it back for the upteenth time, as I have already done because the silly toe wouldn't turn out as nice as the picture in the pattern. I'm done. The socks are done. I look like I have temporally obtained the Grinch's legs and feet. How obscenely cute! Really. Done. Now.
The Saroyan Scarf:
I first came across this from a Ravelry friend who is a newer knitter. She fell in love with the pattern because it was her first time knitting a scarf/shawl that wasn't all garter. She had no mistakes and could easily understand it. And I loved her end product.
The problem with any pattern is utilizing the right yarn to show off your workmanship. The yarn I used for this is what most knitters would call 'souvenir stash'. It was a souvenir of when Dude was deploying. He received a three day pass that in reality was too short to come home but too long just to sit around dwelling on what might occur. So, I drove from Southern VA to Fort Dix in New Jersey (a 10 hour drive) to pick him up, bring him back, spend 36 hours with him at home, to turn around and drive him back up there to deploy to Iraq. Since he wasn't allowed to leave till high noon, I had a couple of hours to kill in the morning. What does any good knitter do? Find the Local Yarn Stores. And I did. Woolbearer's was a fantastic little shop. Lots to offer. Highly recommend it.
But of all things to see in there, was a line of exclusive hand-dyed offerings, the shop do it themselves. The one colorway that I could not walk out of there without? 'Don't Leave'.
'Don't Leave' as a colorway has so much depth to it, it is hard to explain. It was dark. It was moody. But looking closely, you could see bright spots. Glimmers of hope. It was perfect for how I was completely feeling. Just looking at the colorway now brings back every single emotion. How can a skein of yarn move a person like that? I think it no longer becomes yarn, but art. When one thing can extract so much from a person, it is not just string, but an extension of who you are.
My dream is one day when once the kids have gone their own directions to be able to really put forth most of my energies into becoming a known designer/dyer. My goal would be for people to see my creations not just as yarn, but as individual pieces of art. Be moved in ways that the fore-mentioned yarn moved me.
To start off this new year, I made a couple of goals for each month. The first was to spin an hour (at minimum) each week. Back in June when Dude went on a 5 week TDY to Dayton, the last week he was there the kids and I joined him. While there, I was tempted, offered, and given a lesson on a beautiful spinning wheel. I thought I would just think on it, but my appetite was so tempted that I purchased it outright. So the Ashford Joy came home with us and has been whirling up a good time since. Though she hasn't been plying that nicely lately. (hee hee hee- I love it when I can have puns without trying...)
The second goal was to knock a pair of socks out each month and not just my usual straight stitch leg for myself. (Yes, I have had this goal before). (Yes, stop buying more sock yarn.) And (Yes, I can hear you say it already, I have created my own 'sock club' and put yarn with pattern in their own ziplocks ready to go. The problem is I have four years worth of sock club participations and still have more sock yarn than I know what to do with.) Do I even mention the dreaded word? The word that starts with a "REE" and ends with a "DOOSE"? I guess I could. Or I could not sign up for any sock clubs this year. That is where I am thinking of going. The 'isolation island' as I am calling it. No joining any more sock clubs till I have knit up a years worth. (Immediately defining a year's worth as = one pair a month for myself.) If I give a pair away, which might be a good thing, I need to do another within that month.
So with those lofty of ideas and the need for reducing not just me but my S.A.B.L.E., I ask you, gentle reader, what were some of your crafting goals for the year? Let me know and I might send you a pressie in the mail....
p.s. next post will have photos of socks, dresses, and helmet muffs.

Thanks to a five-year $4.3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education, the University of New Hampshire will prepare and support 60 highly qualified elementary and secondary math and science teachers for rural, high-need New Hampshire schools beginning this summer.
"We are excited to bring our excellence in teacher preparation to the North Country," said Leslie Couse, professor of education and department chair in the College of Liberal Arts. "Grant opportunities that focus on rural communities are rare. This grant will provide the means for deep clinical training during a year-long residency, a hallmark of high-quality teacher preparation and allow students to graduate with less debt, while becoming connected to the community."
The University of New Hampshire Teacher Residency for Rural Education (UNH-TRRE) is a 15-month graduate level program designed to prepare elementary and secondary STEM teachers to teach in rural New Hampshire communities. It will support "residents" in learning, teaching, and living in rural NH communities. During their first summer, residents will take graduate coursework, observe in schools, and complete a community-based internship to learn about the resources of the communities in which they will teach. During the academic year, residents will complete a yearlong "residency" alongside an experienced master teacher in an elementary, middle, or high school classroom.
Residents will receive a living wage stipend and substantial scholarship during the program and will commit to teaching in a rural New Hampshire school for at least three years after graduation. Upon completion of the program, UNH-TRRE will continue to support its graduates during their first two years of teaching.

Today he felt different. Not the usual self that just silently followed his mind traversing the forest. Today he felt limp, something kept dragging him back. He looked down upon himself and gasped… he was in crutches. Crutches that he had to keep holding on to, to keep from falling. Crutches below which his ability of free thought and action were smashed.
Independence of thought, opinion, and action is a treasured possession. He now felt deprived of this very basic human need. As he slowly limped along the trail of thoughts that the crutches carried him through, he remembered something he had learned recently, "Like attracts like, this universe is built upon that principle". Were his own actions and thoughts to blame for his current situation? A coach chugged along in his path, he stumbled into it only to see many coaches were in tow, all chugging through the forest. He surveyed each coach, every time dawning upon a new, yet related, aspect of him being responsible for his state. At once he saw all those overly ambitious attempts at pleasing others at the cost of his feelings. Moving into the next, there he saw that time, when he instituted his foremost rule of never giving anyone the reigns to his feelings and how this had only let him down over time. He was now no more the rider, he was ridden by emotions. It was snuffing him out. The urge to break out of it all, to break these crutches and be on his own feet once again, was his only thought. He started to run, haplessly limping all the way… he ran and ran away from that forest, away from those memories that suddenly were more haunting than pleasing. He kept running far, just running to escape it all once and for all.
The capability to think for oneself is something we take for granted more often than not. Value it, value the fact that YOU can CHOOSE. Choice maketh a man, 'tis said, and rightly so.

So I was watching the Clive Owen movie, Arthur, the other night and was thinking about the men in the movie. If you are like me - you will agree that all the main characters are heroes. We know the main character is Arthur and Clive Owen does a great job of showing the heroic side of the man. The selfless man who is willing to give his life for those around him. You see the emotions flash across his face when the bishop renegs on his deal to free the soldiers from their responsibilities to the time when he's praying and Lancelot comes in to speak with him. You feel his anguish over the decisions he must make. A truly tortured hero. He must come to terms with his disillusionment of his faith in Rome as well as his growing attraction to Guinevere, who is a member of the Woads - a barbarian clan who rule most of Britain.
But as you watch the movie you cannot help but find yourself analyzing all the men who follow him.
Lancelot is played by Ioan Gruffudd, I have to admit this probably the first time I have seen this actor in a role where I went - "Whoa! he's amazing!" I have seen him in several films and series, but watching him play the gritty role of Lancelot, you see a different side of the actor. The Lancelot we recall is the movie, Camelot, played by Franco Nero. Gruffudd's Lancelot is grittier and more realistic. He is the narrator and yet we know the story is not his. His veiled passion for Guinevere is hidden behind his dislike of the Woads and his desire to return home. This is not the starry-eyed lover of Camelot we have grown accustomed to seeing.
Tristram is played by Mads Mikkelsen. Here is a man of mystery. Tristram is clever and wiley. He has a hawk that flies in the sky, scouting for him, but is also symbolic of the freedom the men seek. We are drawn to this hawk several times in the movie, but the most poignant time is at the Battle of Badon Hill. Tristram has a demeanor of a sage, patient and yet disarming at the same time. He is faithful to his friends and is willing to risk everything for them.
Gawain is played by Joel Edgerton. This soldier is more playful than the others. He has a light in his eyes that would melt most women's hearts. He may not have a major role in the movie, but the few times he is seen, his lines and actions are exactly what is needed at that time. Many of us recall Sir Gawain and the Green Knight where we once more see his chivalry rise to the fore.
Galahad is played by Hugh Dancy. Galahad appears to be the youngest of the men, whether this is due to the actor's youthful appearance or he's really supposed to be this young, I'm not sure. Whatever the reason, Galahad needs the most guidance in this story. He is more easily led and at the same time, fiercely loyal even though at first he is opposed to giving up his life once more in the name of Rome.
Bors is played by Ray Winstone. One cannot help but like Bors as played by Ray Winstone. His lovely partner has given him 12 children and constantly teases him that none of them are his. Of course we all know differently - they are all his and she's just playing around. He is very proud of his progyny and his wife even though he acts as if he does not care.
Dagonet is played by Ray Stevenson. When Dagonet is killed, no one has a dry eye. He is the gentle giant who wraps himself around your heart with his kindness. When he cares for the little boy, you see a tenderness to this quiet man that you did not expect. He is the only one who can see beyond Bors' boorish behavior and make him see reality.
As you can see, each and every one of the main characters is a hero. Most of them for different reasons. I defy anyone to try and get the hero of their choice to fullfil everything they did. These men deserve their legendary status. Each time I see the movie I see little glimmers of personality I missed the previous time. What it and see.

The luxury goods market in Poland is growing, nevertheless it is still in the early stage of development. Its value is estimated at $13 billion. KPMG data also shows that the number of people in Poland considered rich and wealthy (earning a minimum of PLN 85,000 gross) is increasing. The figure now stands at 800,000. One of the authors of the KPMG report Andrzej Marczak notes that the increasing affluence of the population means the number of potential buyers is increasing. However, even though Polish people are getting richer, they are far off people from Western Europe, both in terms of the number of rich people and the wealth of average citizens. However, companies selling luxury products have noted the potential in the Polish market. According to research, the most popular luxury goods on the Polish market are luxury cars (40% of the total market). Also popular among wealthy Poles are luxury clothes and accessories, as well as high-class hotel services and prestigious real estate. The presentation of this year's report was held in one of Warsaw's most prestigious locations, Szklany Żagiel on Złota street. 59 luxury brand companies took part in the research.

LifestyleThe house renovations are coming to an end and we will be happy to have our house back. The work should be done early next week and I can clean up the house.
I have done a bit of cleaning in the kitchen but there is still more to go. I need the towel rack installed under the sink. I still need to have renovation stuff removed from one cupboard so I can clean and put kitchen items into it. It has been a slow process as I have been tired with a lot of lifting, climbing, and walking at work.
The guys talked about bringing all our belongings upstairs and I said only the bed and my sewing cabinet. I can bring the rest up after I clean the upstairs. Once the house is done, I may get professional cleaners in once a month to clean the house. We will have to see how that goes.
SewingWith the prospects of having my sewing machine upstairs again in the near future, I am hoping to sew for 20 to 30 minutes some nights of the week. These sewing evenings will not be complicated items but more along the lines of:
- reusable grocery bags
- pillow cases
- cushion covers
On my days off, I will work on projects and the projects can spill over to night sewing if it is easy to sew. I will leave the complicated sewing to my days off.
TodayI am working until 6:15 p.m. and then will have three days off. I hope to have the discounting done today.
Until the next time.....................
