So me & my Taurus just met and started dating about a month and a
half ago the very first time I laid eyes on him it was a connection; I spotted
him out . Out of 50 people. I guess the feeling was mutual because he said he knew
I was his when he first saw me walking up to the party we were at. So basically I can honestly say I'm head over heels in love with my man. I bought him a 100 dollar pair of shoes after knowing him for 2 weeks. What can I say us scorpios when we care about somebody we show it in every way possible. We're so passionate. So the problem is at this point I feel like I definitely care about him more than he cares about me. All my friends say I should leave him. They feel that he keeps me a secret and I actually confronted him about it and he says he's not keeping me a secret he just doesn't like
people knowing his business. I don't know, is he embarrassed of ME? I'll be quite honest I love having SEX with him. It's funny that I've been with men in the past who have way bigger penises than my guy, but for some reason my guy makes me cum so many times. It's cute. Another thing too, I'm afraid I'm too jealous. How do Taurus react to jealously? Because they can be quite jealous as well.

Church fetes building's 100th birthday
Pikes Peak United Methodist Church, which traces its history to one of the Westside's earliest congregation of Christian
worshippers, will celebrate its building's 100th birthday Feb. 12-13.
A celebration dinner is scheduled Saturday, Feb. 12 at 5 p.m., and a special anniversary worship service will be Sunday, Feb. 13, at 10 a.m., followed by the removal of the century-old contents of the cornerstone at about noon. Both activities are open to the public, although reservations are necessary for the dinner.
The Victorian-style brick church is at 2927 W. Pikes Peak Ave., at the corner of 30th Street.
"We've been on the corner for 100 years, and we're excited about our history, but we're also excited about our vision - come, love, grow and go," pastor Rick Carpenter said. "We're inviting everyone to come to Pikes Peak United Methodist and share the love of Jesus Christ."
For the events, Carpenter can expect to be joined by some of his predecessors, including Rev. Emeritus Glenn McPherson, who served from 1958 to 1979 and still, at age 92, teaches the church's bible study classes and substitute preaches on occasion.
Even longer church tenure can be claimed by Claire Ruby, who has been a church regular since about 1936 and taught Sunday School for 50 of those years. She said the church has always felt "warm and friendly" to her. She was especially fond of the church's sole female minister (Linda Patzke, 1997-2003). A prolific poet, she has written odes to all the pastors over the years as well as for the building's 75th and now 100th anniversaries.
"Our 100th anniversary we celebrate/ Now tell me don't you think that's great?" her new poem begins.
There is a low-key feel to the unpaid efforts that support the church's activities. "I'm the chairman of the board (of trustees)," quipped congregation member Joe Brown. "It means I get to mow the grass and shovel the snow."
His wife, La Vada Brown, heads up the membership committee. "This place has an unbelievable history," she said, "with all the things that have gone on over the years and all the people that had a part."
When Brown's sister, Dixie Fields, goes to church on Sundays, she and her husband Earl see four generations of family. These include three sons, three grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. One grandson, Jesse, was married in the church last October. "It's kind of neat really to have them all involved," Fields said.
According to church records, construction of the building - then called the First Congregational Church - began in spring 1904. The dedication was March 15, 1905, with the cornerstone laid Sept. 15, 1905. The original Colorado City streets were Lincoln Ave-nue and 10th Street; these changed to Pikes Peak Avenue and 30th Street when Colorado Springs an-nexed to Colo-rado City.
The birth of the church dates back to 1879, when it was known as the Colorado City Congregational Church. Its best-known meeting place in those early years was the the original Colorado City city hall building, at the northwest corner of what is now 29th Street and Colorado Avenue.
By the time Rev. Frank Hullinger came in 1903, the church had been incorporated as the First Congre-gational Church but was still small. In Hullinger's first year, the membership exploded from 8 to 89 members, spurring the congregation to decide it needed a building of its own.
Key donations helped bring about the construction of the building at 30th and Colorado. Two lots were donated, and a $100 grant from Colorado Springs founder William Palmer augmented a Congrega-tional Church Building Society grant and loan to help cover the $7,000 cost.
Free architectural services were provided by August J. (Gus) Smith, who had designed the original El Paso County Courthouse (now the Pioneers' Museum) in 1903.
In 1917, after the annexation, the church was renamed the Pilgrim Con-gregational Church (a First Congregational Church in Colorado Springs already existed). Another change for the worshippers came in 1925, when the Colorado Conference of the Evangelical Church purchased the facility and renamed it the Trinity Evangelical Church.
In 1946, the Evangelical and United Brethren in Christ churches merged, resulting in another name change. The present name was established in 1968, as a result of a merger with the United Methodist Church.
In 1957, the church expanded on its east side, adding a pastor's study, Sunday school and assembly rooms. Other work included a redesigned ceiling, a change of the entrance door location from 30th Street to Pikes Peak Avenue, creation of a prayer chapel in the original foyer and a reworking of the coal bin into cupboard facilities and storage space.
Over the years, stained glass windows have been added to the building, including several in the style of the Air Force Academy Chapel's one-inch chunks of faceted glass.
Pikes Peak United Methodist care efforts include Westside Cares (a meals program for indigent people out of Bethany Baptist Church); Christmas presents to Westside children whose parents are incarcerated; hand-quilted lap robes for nursing home residents, baby quilts for Fort Carson families; help to people who are shut in their homes; the county's Teen Self Sufficiency Program, and a Native American mission in Kentucky.
Among the items reportedly in the cornerstone are a copy of the church seal, a photograph of the pastor, copies of local newspapers of the time, a souvenir guide to the region, and a church manual.

The Android O is "Oreo"
We got confused about whether the code name of android 8.0, or android O. Had circulated rumors about the name that juxtaposed with the letter O, but finally Google open all the mystery by announcing the official code name of android O, right on the anniversary of the total solar eclipse Occurred on August 21, 2017.
As expected, Google finally unveil the moniker of the next iteration of Android. Known simply as "O" for the past few months while a few Developer Previews and public betas went out, it now officially has a full name.
It's Android 8.0 Oreo.
So yes, the most rumored name actually turned out to be what Google chose to call its latest sweet treat. It's only the second time in Android's history when there's a commercial partnership involved - for version 4.4 KitKat Google teamed up with Nestle (which owns that brand), and this time around the search giant managed to get Mondelez on board the co-branding train.
Android 8.0 Oreo's code will be uploaded by Google engineers to the Android Open Source Project today, while software updates for the supported Nexus and Pixel devices are due to arrive "soon". Of course the final build will be sent to those devices enrolled in the Android Beta Program too.
Google also says that by the end of the year you should expect devices from Essential, General Mobile, HMD Global, Huawei, HTC, Kyocera, LG, Motorola, Samsung, Sharp, and Sony to either launch with or be upgraded to Android Oreo.
The latest version of Android comes with picture-in-picture support, notification dots, fully redesigned emoji (including over 60 new ones), Google Play Protect built-in, limits to background overuse of battery by apps, faster boot speeds, autofill system-wide, and support for Android Instant Apps.
Meanwhile, BlackBerry has officially confirmed that the Keyone will be getting the Android Oreo update. There was, however, no word on when the roll out will begin.

Seattle: Laughs and Screams at Bonebat Comedy of Horrors Film Fest!Movies/TV,News Fangoria Staff
Bleeding out on Saturday, April 26th, from 2:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. at Central Cinema, "Seattle's only dine-in theater", is the return of the BoneBat 'Comedy of Horrors' Film Festival. This year's fest will include 2 Feature Films, and 30 hand-picked shorts from around the world, all seated within the comedy and/or horror genres, with both features standing as premieres.
US PREMIERE! LOVE BITE – Directed by Andy DeEmmony, starring Ed Speleers, Jessica Szohr and Timothy Spall.
"Summer has begun in the dead-end seaside town of Rainmouth, and Jamie's friends are happy working in the local pie factory by day, and looking for a shag by night. Jamie, however, is bored out of his mind working at his Mom's bed and breakfast, until he's smitten by smart and sexy American traveler Juliana at a party. But soon after Juliana's arrival, local teens start to go missing, and Jamie is warned by an enigmatic stranger that a werewolf is in town – one who preys solely on virgin flesh! As the locals are picked off one by one, and the boys know that, for all their talk, the werewolf is indeed after them. Pretty soon, everyone is dying to get laid."
NORTHWEST PREMIERE! HELLBENDERS – Written and Directed by JT Petty, starring Clancy Brown, Clifton Collins, Jr. and Andre Royo.
"There are demons so terrible that no mortal man of God could successfully drive them back to Hell. Thus the Augustine Interfaith Order of Hellbound Saints, or Hellbenders, was formed. A group of elite, highly-trained exorcists, they live in a constant state of debauchery, so they will be ready to go to Hell at any moment. When infernal Norse demon BLACK SURTR escapes into New York City intent on cracking open the gates of Hell, the Hellbenders must use every ounce of their debauchery to battle this malevolent being, and save the planet from eternal damnation!"
These features will accompany the 30 previously announced Official Shorts Selections, which will compete for the annual audience-selected Bonebat Viewers Choice Award for Best Short:
In addition to the above cinematic offerings, the fest will also present a huge prize giveaway from our generous sponsors, a book reading by author G.G. Silverman from her debut young adult novel VEGAN TEENAGE ZOMBIE HUNTRESS, and live music from Spokane nerdcore rap phenomenon Beefy, and Kyle Stevens of Seattle nerd rockers Kirby Krackle, who will serve up songs about the best in comics, pop-culture, and Weird.
The event is rated R for content. Central Cinema does serve wine and beer to attendees of age 21 and over. Mac and Jacks Brewery is once again a sponsor of the event, so we will have specials on African Amber all evening, as well as free chocolate from Dolcetta Artisan Sweets for all attendees.

When I sent out the call for celebrity sightings, someone asked what I was looking for.
My response: I'm not sure, but we'll see what defines celebrity to people.
I was right.
Most of the names you submitted I was aware of. Some were a little more obscure and I had to do my own Internet research to educate myself on names like Brenda Fraizer and Anthony Green.
As co-worker Claude said, this business affords us opportunities to meet-and sometimes get to know-celebrities. Although I've always worked in small towns at weekly newspapers, I've gotten to meet or interview Pat Buchanan, Ben Jones (Cooter from Dukes of Hazzard), novelist Terry Kay (To Dance with the White Dog), baseball great Harmon Kilabrew, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Rick Bragg and actress Jane Fonda.
But there have been other non-reporter encounters and both had completely different ends.
In 1985 my family and I won a trip to see the Cincinnati Reds play. The trip included accommodation at the Hyatt Regency.
We were in the elevator when all these burly men got on-big, hulking type macho men.

You will read many different sources in this class and the "trick" is to take notes succinctly and efficiently so they can be used for study. Cornell notes is the best way to take notes over lengthy readings. Examples are provided below. Making sure your notes are in note format–no complete sentences, just short, efficient thoughts will be the key. Also, in Cornell style you need to write a summary at the end. You can write a summary on each page (the method I prefer) or at the end of all the notes. The summary is your analysis and conclusions about what you learned reading the assignment, so it is an important piece you should not leave off!

The Ugly Truth
Readers, think about it: when's the last time somebody really unattractive became famous? Newt Gingrich? He's been around awhile. John Belushi? He's been dead for decades.
It may be hard to believe, but in the early Nineteen-Thirties, comic actress Marie Dressler, already over sixty and with the face of an English Bulldog, was THE number one Hollywood box office attraction, which she remained until her death at sixty-five. Watch an old movie of hers like Min and Bill or Dinner at Eight and you'll immediately understand why. She was a powerhouse.

Pattern Stash Confessions, Part 2 + Pass the Pie!
Readers, I was stunned -- stunned -- to discover how many MPB readers are simply nuts about pie!
And speaking of pie, many of you are probably wondering what kind of pie I like. I'll be brief(ish): While I enjoy a savory shepherd's pie from time to time (I am fortunate to live near the extraordinary Myers of Keswick grocery store, which offers a vast selection of fresh, savory English pies daily), pie to me remains primarily a sweet dessert.

Before I get started, why does current fashion illustration make women look like Bratz dolls? I don't like it one bit.
Moving right along...
Friends, how much do you know about color forecasting? I don't know much, but you'd have to live on Mars not to have heard that Pantone's official Color of the Year for 2012 is Tangerine Tango, aka orange. (You can read more about it here.) I hate to sound grumpy -- I am still recovering from my weekend cold -- but I was "over" that color ten seconds after seeing it; to me it screams Guantanamo Bay prisoner jumpsuits.

Feed a Cold, Starve a Fever?
Friends, I am back from a very intense, thankfully short, bout with something I'm guessing was Influenza. It came on rapidly Saturday evening and within 3-4 hours I could hardly lift my head off the pillow. I'm a big believer in letting fever do its thing (unless you have other medical problems or are a small child or elder) and now, roughly 36 hours later, I'm 85% of the way back. Was this a cold, a flu, something else entirely? Who knows. Suffice it to say I'm glad to be vertical once again and not shivering under three blankets, a ski cap, and a heavy fleece.

Readers, occasionally I have random thoughts about various topics, none of which warrant a blog post all their own, or which I might flesh out sometime in the future -- or maybe one of you would like to develop one of them on your own blog; feel free. So here goes:
At the library yesterday, I passed a display of Suzanne Somers' latest diet/health book, Sexy Forever. And I found myself wondering: sexy....forever? Is that the new benchmark for health and happiness in the Twenty-First Century? I'm exhausted and I haven't even read the preface!

The Ditching Begins (again) + Which Sewing Machine Goes?
Greetings, born-again declutterers!
We are starting the new year right here at MPB, digging through the detritus and dumping, dumping, DUMPING. As you know, my energy for these kinds of purges isn't always there, so when it is, the best bet is to ride if for all it's worth.

New Rules & Resolutions for 2012
Happy 2012, everybody, and welcome to my first entry of the new year!
I am not a fan of making New Year's resolutions, readers, because, with rapidly accumulating life experience behind me, I now recognize that most of us (all of us?) fail at making ourselves do things we don't like to do. The trick to changing behavior is truly to want to do it (and not just want to want), and if you already want to do it, you shouldn't have any difficulty doing so.

We bring you the latest from sports
Romanian tennis player Ana Bogdan on Wednesday sustained a 6-2, 6-1 defeat by 4th-seed contender Garbine Muguruzza of Spain, in a confrontation counting towards the round of 16 stage of the WTA tournament in Hong Kong, an event with 750,000 USD up for grabs. It took Muguruzza only one hour and 15 minutes to defeat Bogdan. We recall that Muguruzza had defeated Ana Bogdan before in the semifinals of this year's Monterrey tournament, 6-nil, 7-5. For her performance, the Romanian will receive a cheque worth 7,195 USD and 30 WTA points.
The Romanian-Dutch pair made of Horia Tecau and Jean Julien Rojer was edged out of the ATP Masters 1,000 Tournament in Shanghai, an event with 7, 086, 700 USD in prize money. Grabbing a 6-4, 6-7, 11-9 win against Tecau and Rojer in the tournament's round of 16 was the all-Colombian pair made of Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah. The 5th-seed pair secured their win after one hour and 41 minutes. Tecau and Rojer had been defeated last week in the first round of the Beijing tournament by the same Colombian pair. The Dutch-Romanian pair will receive a cheque worth 27,450 USD and 90 ATP points. After their failure in the Shanghai tournament, Tecau and Rojer stand no chance of qualifying for the Champions' Tournament.
Romanian men's basketball team U-BT Cluj Napoca this past Wednesday missed the chance to make headway into the group stage of the FIBA Europe Cup, in spite of their 89-88 home win against Israeli opponents Ironi Ness Ziona, in a fixture counting towards the second leg of the second preliminary round. UB-T Cluj Napoca's win counted only for the team's record. The win was sealed by the team's Serbian player Aleksandar Rasic, who succeeded a three-pointer, three seconds from time. In the first leg, UT-B Cluj had sustained a 91-78 defeat by Ironi Ness Ziona.
We go out with news from men's handball, as in the domestic championship's derby CSM Bucharest grabbed a 27-24 defeat against Steaua Bucharest. The game was hosted by the town of Chiajna in the south, and counted towards the National League's 6th round. In the standings, CSM Bucharest are at the top of the table with 16 points, followed by CSM Focsani 2007, Potaissa Turda and Dinamo Bucharest, each with 13 points.

On Wednesday 13, my last in Washington DC, I travelled to Columbia Heights to the office of Christian campaigning organisation, Sojourners, to meet Nicole Higgins.
As Nicole explained to me, Columbia Heights is an area which burned in the riots following the assassination of Dr Martin Luther King Jr. It has only begun to redevelop since the 1990s, and newcomers and the long-time inhabitants live shoulder to shoulder in what is an increasingly attractive neighbourhood. As the NFT Guide to Washington DC puts it,
Columbia Heights has a well-earned reputation as a hipster mecca and vegan ghetto. It's true, there's no shortage of skinny jeans, fixies [fixed-gear bicycles] or soy cheese here. Travelling outside the main drags will reveal that the neighbourhood's transformation isn't yet complete.
So I stayed on the main street!
Sojourners' office suite is in part of an old theatre building on 14th Street NW, 5 minutes from the Metro station. Nicole Higgins describes Sojourners as being about articulating the Biblical call to justice. Jim Wallis is their public face.
I read Jim Wallis when I was at Glasgow University and at Princeton. Wallis is an evangelical- a theologically conservative Protestant, when it comes to his theology. But unlike so many other evangelical leaders in the US, Wallis has campaigned on issues of peace and social justice- the sorts of issues which the liberal wing of the Church has been more to the fore on in recent decades. Wallis's writings- in books, in articles in Sojourners magazine, and, nowadays, increasingly online- express frustration that liberal religion plays down the personal relationship to God, at the expense of social issues (what can be loosely termed, 'the social gospel'). But Conservative Christians, with their emphasis on personal experience, risk reducing the concerns of Christianity to personal matters- my relationship with God or Jesus, issues of personal conduct and personal ethics- and not making the connections to wider issues in society.
For around 50 years, however, the Christian Right has played a part in US politics, but only to campaign around the 'hot-button' issues such as abortion and opposition to gay rights. Promised action on these by the right-wing in politics, these Christian Conservatives take a conservative stance on other political issues: 'America first' ideas in defence and foreign policy, and support for free market economic policies, support for Israel. Jim Wallis has struggled to make his fellow [theologically] conservative Christians see that a concern for world peace, or for speaking up for those living in poverty (beyond merely being charitable) is something which rises out of the Biblical tradition. From a small group of students in 1971 discussing their faith in the light of public issues such as the Vietnam War, Sojourners has evolved into 'a committed group of Christians who work together to live a gospel life that integrates spiritual renewal and social justice'. There's more about their history on their website.
I asked Nicole Higgins how she understood the work Sojourners does. She pointed to Old Testament prophets, with their concern for the poor, epitomised by Isaiah 61, the passage which Jesus reads in his hometown synagogue (Luke 4.16-31) and which he says he is now fulfilling. She also mentioned the parable of the last judgement (Matthew 25.31-46), in which Christ is to be found in the hungry and homeless: 'Truly I tell you, just as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me', he says to those who either helped or ignored the hungry, the stranger and the imprisoned.
So on this account, the Gospel absolutely has to do with poverty. Nicole explained how she had learned about a 'hands and feet' approach to faith. Born in Jamaica, she was brought up an Anglican, but studied at the prestigious Baptist seminary, Fuller. There the slogan of the Reformation- justification by faith alone- seemed to suggest that doing 'good works' made no difference to a person's salvation, for salvation came from simply believing that Christ is your personal saviour. However, spending time in New Orleans working with disadvantaged children taught Nicole that faith could not be just a matter for words. Yes, she still believes that faith alone is what saves: but can't say that without expressing it practically, in love for 'the least of these'.
We spoke of how Sojourners is organised, and how they prioritise the issues they want to campaign on. A recent leaflet outlines current priorities and topics: racial and social issues, life and peace, and environmental stewardship (or creation care).
On some topics, Sojourners can find common ground with more conservative evangelical leaders. Recently, Wallis was able to bring together a coalition of evangelical leaders to produce a common statement to take to the nation's political leadership about the necessity of immigration reform in the US (care of the 'stranger', in Biblical terms). Although short on specific proposals, the statement puts pressure on the politicians to cease name-calling and petty politicking over what is a major ethical issue (and one which Churches deal with day by day). The point was to keep positive with those with whom there might be disagreements on other major issues (Coincidentally, President Obama announced a significant reform of immigration- ending the threat of deportation for children of non-registered workers- a few days later).
A 'consistent life ethic' addresses the odd situation in which Americans who call themselves 'prolife' because they are opposed to abortion are often some of the strongest proponents of the death penalty! Both are 'hot-button' issues on the Right of American politics- Sojourners challenges this inconsistency. The issue of gay rights is also extremely divisive here (the fact that all the party leaders in the Scottish Parliament are in favour of gay marriage is inconceivable here!). It's an issue which some have accused Sojourners of skirting around. But the wider culture has become a bit more gay-friendly (with perhaps a majority of Americans now in favour of gay marriage). Even if issues such as ordination continue to divide the churches, there are more, even among the evangelicals- who are are willing to see that gay rights are civil rights (does the Church/State divide help here, I wonder?). So as gay rights are discussed on even the most conservative college and seminary campuses, and even within conservative congregations, Sojourners has begun to produce materials to support a rising discussion which accepts the reality of church-based homophobia.
I asked Nicole what she thought was the biggest issue for US society today. She said, 'We have to unpack the lies we have come to accept'. Which lies? Lies such as the idea that some people are worth more than others. That lie, she suggested was the big lie at the heart of the immigration issue, of the civil rights struggle, and the LGBT marriage equality campaign. If the Church teaches that we are all made in God's image, then we cannot stand by and watch as some people seem to be treated as less worth than others. This is what is implied by the current moves by the Republican-dominated Congress to slash the budgets of programmes which most benefit the needy. The budget, says Nicole, is a moral document (and is therefore the focus of much campaigning by many religious groups). Jim Wallis has written recently that
We must agree not to reduce deficits in ways that further increase poverty and economic inequality by placing the heaviest burdens on those who are already suffering the most.
and thinks he detects a consensus on this among Christians across the party lines- another example of trying to find the common ground.
We ended with a quick tour around the office, meeting those who organise campaigns, put the magazine together, and look after the internet part of the operation. For an organisation like Sojourners, funded by private donations, keeping tabs on those who whom interactwith them is crucial. They try to monitor what is useful for their clientele (hence the LGBT resources- something Churches had been asking for). There is a lively blog, and daily email updates, as well as the Sojourners magazine. Jim Wallis has been trying to alter the political priorities of the evangelical churches for forty years- and perhaps the landscape is shifting? Maybe a trip to the traditionally-conservative Midwest will provide some answers!

Valentine's Day: It's the Thought (and the Part Number) That CountsFebruary 4th, 2014 by admin
One of the challenges of owning a 4×4 is dividing your time between your beloved rig and your beloved. That ever-present challenge can flare up into an issue around Valentine's Day. Now all that attention you've devoted to your vehicle needs to be shifted to your wife or girlfriend. When it's time to pick out a special gift for your significant other, you don't want to end up mis-shifting and grinding your gears
The good news is there are Valentine's Day gifts you can get for her that will benefit your truck, Jeep, or SUV too. If presented properly, she'll believe you had her best interests in mind when you give her the gift. Here are five off-road parts and accessories that will make great Valentine's Day gifts and leave everyone happy.
#1 Handles and Sidesteps – Sidesteps and handles are must haves for her, especially when you're sporting those large tires and lift kit. Getting safely into your truck or Jeep will be a breeze for your significant other with these handy accessories.
#2 Solar-Powered Gear – Tell her she's the sunshine of your life, but that other sun has some good points, too. When she needs power to run her blow dryer or charge up her curling iron, solar panels and chargers are great and environmentally-friendly.
#3 Tonneau Cover – You want her to have peace of mind and know that the valuables stored in your truck bed are safe from prying eyes and the elements. When her gear is in back, nothing's too good for her and a tonneau cover saves the day.
#4 Shock Absorbers – Whether you're on the highway or an off-road trail, you want to make your ride is smooth just for her. A new set of shocks goes a long way toward keeping things stable so she can relax and enjoy the drive.
#5 Seat Covers – Style is important when it comes to interior accessories. Those new seat covers are great lookers (although they're no match for her in that outfit).

Working people
don't see the danger of the "fever".
Not so old people, limited
by life in general, the Fever is a
black monster. One turns around
and around all day long, not knowing
what goes on in the outside world.
You only see black and white,
the chill goes through your bones,
your eyes stop staring out the window
and the telephone stays silent.
The Fever monster is with you
hours after hours, it got you so
embedded in it's web, that you do
not dare call for help.
Try not to fight it and you can loose
your life, calling out for help and they
judge you as insane, go out and
you are not sure if you will come
back to your cage. Some have a
golden cage, others see small creatures
roaming around, ready to jump on you,
but still you do not dare to cry for help.
You are there and the "Fever" won't let
you react, until you give up and just
don't fight it anymore.
NB: If you know people who have the
cabin Feaver, just help them anyway
you can.
The cabin Feaver is a real killer.

How Low Will Treasury Yields Go? BofA Sees 10-Year Yield At 1.3%
Until there's some sort of policy response from Europe or the Fed, Bank of America says safe-haven yields should continue to grind lower.
The bank doesn't see the EU acting before Greece's June 17 elections. It also says that not all triggers for more Fed easing have been met yet: growth has to slow materially, drags on growth have to increase and deflation risks have to rise.
That's why yields have more room to fall, though BofA limits the 10-year yield drop to 1.3%. For year-end, the firm lowered its forecast to 1.9% from 2.3%.
Benchmark 10-year notes currently down 13/32 to yield 1.51%.

Well-Child Appointments for Clara and Winton's annual physicals: 2.35pm.
Children: both well, according to the Doctor.
Clara's temperature at 6pm? 103F
1) Can she really have picked something up from the sticky waiting room that had such a short incubation period?
2) Was she already incubating something when we arrived at the Doctor's office?
3) Do we need to bring her back to the Doctor's office for a note so that her school will excuse her absence*?
(* Why do you care, oh callous mother, you ask? Well, we have a trip to my elderly/insane parents in Canada coming up. It's timed to coincide with a conference in their vicinity so that at least my airfare is covered. It will involve 6 unexcused absences for Clara. Too many unexcused absences will negatively affect her brother's chances of getting into the school in Fall 2014. So. Long stress pipeline here.)

Alina Powell launches website addressing 'false claims' about her dad, Susan Powell
county mom Monroe, UTMay 17, 2012 12:44 p.m.
Is Alina the Sister of Josh Powell that was to get all the money from all of the life insurances of Susan,the little boys and Josh Powell?....I am very suspect of anything that comes from her.
arizonasnow7 Gilbert, AZMay 16, 2012 6:30 p.m.
snowman, I feel sorry for the whole family, not just Steve and Josh. However, feeling sorry for criminals is not a bad thing. I still believe in the justice system and expect Steve to serve the appropriate time for his crimes. I only hope he and his family will soften their hearts towards their supposed enemies. And I hope Steve will show a little contrition for his role in taking himself and much of his family into some dark places.
snowman, don't you feel sorry, at all, for Alina? She is obviously set on a bitter path and that will mean much misery.
snowman Provo, UTMay 16, 2012 9:43 a.m.
arizonasnow7: Why do you feel sorry for them? Both Steve an Josh committed crimes. As far as Im concerned they got what they deserve. Joshs killing himself and his boys was proof that he killed their mother and it was a very selfish act. He murdered his boys.
Cinci Man FT MITCHELL, KYMay 16, 2012 6:12 a.m.
Alina can't produce home movies where Susan left her kids alone with Steven, can she? And I think Alina cannot deny that Susan and Josh moved away from him. How sad that Alina is blind to the need for HER to be truthful. I wish all the families well, but the truth is, Steven has issues, none of which are addressed or acknowledged by Alina and perhaps her brothers. And Steven may one day tell them the truth; I hope so. May the boys and their mother rest in peace and may the rest of those in this tragedy find it as well. To Steven, tell the truth and accept the consequences. It's the only way everyone can heal, including himself.
Love Utah Draper, UTMay 16, 2012 3:59 a.m.
And the followers of the website total the number of people in the Powell family.
Chase Saint George, UTMay 15, 2012 10:44 p.m.
It's clear that mental health is a serious issue in this family.
A voice of Reason Salt Lake City, UTMay 15, 2012 8:28 p.m.
I agree with the point you were making. I wouldn't say that it's putting 'lipstick on a pig' as the videos are clearly a genuine recording of events that took place. To me these videos are more like looking at space. While a scientist might think he can explain the universe after he's seen 1000 stars, there are 1000 x 1000 x 1000 x 1000 more.... and them some... and some more... that the scientist has yet to observe.
A video may show a indifferent or even a positive interaction with Steven Powell. It's not like it would surprise the world to see a positive moment between Josh Powell and his own children. I'm sure they day they were born, he didn't have the same mentality as he did the day he took away their lives.
The point is, there are good and bad moments in everyone's life. All that we as a people need to care about are where the law is concerned- and so far the Powell guys have shown everyone enough of one side to justify how the everyone has reacted.
These videos don't change anything.
Rifleman Salt Lake City, UtahMay 15, 2012 7:57 p.m.
As another commenter likes to point out this trial is about charges that her father took pictures of little children in the bathroom of their own home. "But you know when you put lipstick on a pig, at the end of the day, it's still a pig", and at the end of the day there is a reason why Stephen Powell's wife left him.
one old man Ogden, UTMay 15, 2012 7:31 p.m.
Just one more offshoot of a pathetic tragedy.
arizonasnow7 Gilbert, AZMay 15, 2012 6:10 p.m.
I feel really sorry for the Powells. They are all alone, feeling like everyone is against them. I went to Alina's website and watched the videos (by the way, thanks for allowing us to see video of Susan) but unfortunately these videos do not prove Alina's argument. She thinks that showing us a few "good times" with Steve and Susan prove that Steve wasn't at other times immoral in his admitted infatuation with her. The video also shows Josh loving his boys ("good times") but that also doesn't prove that he didn't hack them with a hatchet before burning them to death.
Peter Coyotl West Jordan, UTMay 15, 2012 6:07 p.m.
I do not believe Alina. I doubt that many people do.

The Excellence of Virtual Disaster Recovery
The elegance of technology has made our life styles easier than yesterday. It is developing day by day. The best example for its grace is Software. It has eliminated the complexity of different aspects. Everything is happening now in a fraction of seconds! But it has got up with a negative trait as well. If anything goes wrong, sometimes the data which is stored gets formatted instantly. This leads to countless number of problems. Mainly in computers, which are used officially, there exist confidential data which should not be disclosed. If such information gets erased, the company suffers form a lot of problems. To eliminate this burden, Virtual Disaster Recovery has taken birth which allows a back up for the data.

17 Essential Things That Your Business Disaster Recovery Plan Should Contain
A business disaster occurs when the essential elements of a business are unable to function as normal over a long period of time. Such a disaster can be caused by several things. This includes natural catastrophes, equipment failure or human personnel failure. To deal with a business disaster effectively, you need to have a recovery plan in place.
A good recovery plan has two main facets. First, it aims at preventing such disasters from happening and second it aims at helping you restore everything back to normal after disaster strikes.

Learn to Perform Virtual Disaster Recovery with this Simple Guide
Today, organizations completely depend on the virtual machines for storing their critical data as well as applications and need them to always remain available. This is where the virtual disaster recovery comes into the picture. Virtual disaster recovery focuses on taking the backups of the virtual machines instead of the physical servers. VM backup can be taken in three ways – image-based, agent-based and server-less backup. Data replication helps the workloads to move independently between VMs and arrive rapidly after recovery, without the need of manual re-launching of OS and application on a physical server.

The proposed night race on the streets of Bangkok in Thailand took one step closer to reality this week, with local newspapers reporting that the Sports Authority of Thailand has signed off on a 3.725-mile (5.995km) circuit right through the heart of the capital city.
The start/finish straight would be at the Royal Thai Naval Dockyard on the Chao Phraya river near the Rama VIII Bridge, and the street circuit would enclose Bangkok's famous Khao San Road, well known to backpackers the world over.
"As the starting and finishing point would be on the bank of the Chao Phraya River, we may be able to build the main stands in the river," the governor of the Sports Authority of Thailand told the Bangkok Post on Friday.
After the green flag, the race would head south towards one of the city's chief tourist attractions, the Grand Palace and then head up Ratchadamnoen Avenue, the site of Mark Webber's demonstration run in 2010 in his Red Bull car before 100,000 enthusiastic spectators.
The circuit would then take in the Democracy Monument and would include other sights including the red Giant Swing of Wat Suthat, Wat Arun (the Temple of Dawn) and the Navy Club before following Phra Sumen back to the start/finish line. The paddock and spectator stands would be at Sanam Luang.
"Only a small group of residents would be affected by the proposed route," said Kanokphand Chulakasem, who heds the sports authority. "It would also be convenient for transportation of equipment."
While it might be logistically appealing for the city and its tourism office, the proposed layout hasn't gone down a storm with fans, however. The circuit would lack any big challenges or sharp ninety degree corners that would make for an exciting race or allow for many obvious overtaking opportunities.
Now that the sports body had made its decision on the route, the proposed street circuit will have to be submitted to the national government for review and approval before it is formally signed off and preparations for the event can really get under way.
The event is currently on schedule to d?but on the F1 calendar for the 2015 world championship season. A Thai GP has been mooted for several years in various forms, with Red Bull a particularly enthusiastic proponent of the event.
Earlier this year, a leading local opposition politician suggested that he was considering building a permanent F1 circuit in the town of Buri Ram, 400km to the north of Bangkok, and that he had approached track designer Hermann Tilke about carrying out the work. (See separate story.)

The commoners' troop seems to have trouble cooking on the menu today. Lokesh, who is handling the kitchen gets a bitter serving of words from team-mates Manu and Navin.
Manu and Navin complain and say that Lopamudra used to handle the kitchen smoothly unlike Lokesh. Lokesh snaps back saying that Lopa had the support of the celebrity team. She also mentions that her team doesn't co-operate and is just busy criticizing every second thing.
Lokesh seems irked with the conduct of her team members and we will have to tune in tonight at 10.30PM to see what's cooking!

Cosmetic Dentistry Services Performed By An Experienced Dentist In Queens NY
If you are looking for a dentist in Queens NY to offer you cosmetic dentistry, know that you've found one right here. We are a reliable Queens dentist, providing patients with cosmetic dentistry services in a fully equipped dental facility. Our dentist has experience performing a wide array of cosmetic dentistry procedures.
Cosmetic dentistry has become quite famous over the years due to its ability to transform smiles for the better. For most people, it's also about having a more vibrant smile and a good impression. Nevertheless, these procedures have several other benefits, particularly with regards to better dental functions.
Discolored, misaligned, or chipped teeth are some of the reasons that make patients seek a Queens cosmetic dentist. The end result is always a better smile and improved confidence.
Below are just a few of the cosmetic dentistry services that we offer:
Porcelain Veneers: Teeth enamel may wear our or get destroyed because of a number of reasons. The most popular procedure for recovering enamel is porcelain veneers. It can also be used when a few modifications need to be done in order to make teeth look more proportional to others, change the color, shape, and to smoothen the surface. It's only used where the basic structure of the tooth is still undamaged.
Porcelain Crowns: When a tooth is badly damaged, porcelain crowns serve well to recover it by fully covering it. Aside from making the tooth look better, it also helps improve dental health by covering the ragged surface. Crowns and veneers are often made using the same material.
Periodontal (Gum) treatment: Dr. Terranova and Dr. Rumack will work in tandem to ensure that you get proper dental treatment. The health and position of the gums are very important for stable dental health. Our dentists will therefore check the gum tissues and ascertain which one between adding or removing tissue is appropriate to get the best aesthetics in any given condition.
Invisalign/Orthodontic treatment: While several people ignore it, the position of teeth is very important for teeth function and general aesthetics. Our dentists in Queens NY will consider the position of teeth to determine whether they need to be repositioned – oftentimes, this alone does it.
Bleaching: This is a very famous procedure for improving how teeth look. They make teeth look whiter, making one's smile brighter. In our dental facility, we use Kor and Zoom bleaching systems, which are the most reliable bleaching systems available today.
Dentures: While crowns and veneers can be used to restore damaged teeth, at times they are not sufficient. In such cases, the procedure may demand that the remaining teeth be removed and replaced with either partial or full dentures. Because of the final touches and the required aesthetics, we consider it a cosmetic dentistry procedure.
If you have gone through the information on our website and would like to book an appointment with a dentist in Queens NY, just use our contact information as provided and we will respond to your request.

Social Media Risk Management is the practice of predicting and managing risks that could harm the corporation, brand(s), or those associated with the organization (such as partners). It helps you determine, role play, design and train people on the protocols that will make you and your company most successful when risk events occur.
There are many areas that can be considered risks for a company that may arise from social media:
There are other corporate risks that may need to be considered that could play out on social media. These may include:
You may not think these are important to consider. However, if you are in the Financial Industry and a financial crisis hits, or if your industry is Insurance and a natural disaster hits...then you better believe social media is a key part of how you are communicating with your consumer base. Knowing how you will handle that situation will set you up for greater success.
The first step in determining how you will handle social media risk management is to clarify your key corporate risks. This is a process in itself and requires a cross-departmental approach. It should also include someone from the Corporate Risk team.
Key elements in social media risk management include:

Most Tea Partiers who report being angry also report carrying a large debt load. In other words, they're just trying to keep their heads above water. They report having to work harder for less money while their number one asset, their home, has slid in value over the years. If they are lucky enough to have a retirement account such as a 401K, 40% report having borrowed at least once from the funds. "
This last bit of information is revealing. A significant number of Tea Party supporters are lower middle class. They are the people who receive no government support except, if they are old enough, perhaps Social Security and Medicare. They are the people whose incomes have stagnated since the middle 1970s. Above them are people who make astronomical amounts of money, many of them college drop-outs, many of them still quite young. For many of these newly rich, marriage and the heterosexual family are not the center of their social life. Some of them are even practicing homosexuals. Few of them go to Church every Sunday.
Tea Partiers are angry because they are not doing as well as many others. Their economic situation is, on the contrary, deteriorating as is their social situation. They pay taxes which they can ill afford so that the government—they believe—can support irresponsible life styles of people of color, of people who are on drugs, who are sexually licentious. At the same time their, to them obvious, white superiority can no longer be asserted proudly. It must hide shamefaced in a society that is governed by—horrors!—a black man.
Hence the whiny tone, the deep sense of being done to, of being the victim of forces that put to shame traditional American values. They have many grievances—economic, social, racial and religious.
But they are to blame for their own problems, for being too gullible when they listen to capitalist propaganda. Their economic straits are, after all, the results of free-market capitalism, which they admire so much and support vociferously.
Their frustration with the political system is connected with their foolish defense of free-market capitalism. As the latest Supreme Court decision striking down some limits on campaign contributions illustrates once again so vividly, capitalism as we know it today gives enormous political power to some and very little, if any, to most of us. They are right when they complain about lacking political power. But they have no idea why that is so.
One can refuse to lend a sympathetic ear to their racist ranting about social services. They are after all—as Whites – responsible for the oppression of people of color and refuse to take responsibility for that. The Africans who survived the Middle Passage did not freely choose slavery. They were enslaved by the ancestors of white Tea Party members.
But it is true that they are victimized, for instance by ruthless ideologues like the Koch brothers. They are right about that. Their victimization is all the more frustrating because they completely misunderstand its origins. Insofar as they allow themselves to be misled about capitalism and about the role of the very rich in our political system, they allow themselves to become complicit in their victimization.
The blame for their condition does not rest on leftists, communists, atheists, or people of color. The blame falls mostly on them for being credulous and gullible.
Not a fun party, that Tea Party.
