Praise be to Allaah.
It is permissible to keep cats in the house, and there is nothing wrong with that because cats are not harmful or naajis (impure).
With regard to cats not being harmful, no one disputes that, rather they are useful because they eat snakes, rats bugs and other things that may be in the house or yard.
With regard to cats not being naajis, this is known from the hadeeth of Kabshah bint Ka'b ibn Maalik, who said that Abu Qutaadah – her husband's father – entered upon her and she poured water for him to do wudoo', and a cat came to drink from it, so he tipped the vessel for it to drink. Kabshah said: "He saw me looking at him and said, "Do you find it strange, O daughter of my brother?' I said, 'Yes.' He said, 'The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, "They (cats) are not naajis, rather they are of those who go around amongst you."'"
(Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 92; al-Nasaa'i, 68; Abu Dawood, 75; Ibn Maajah, 367. classed as saheeh by al-Albaani. Ibn Hajar narrated in al-Talkhees that al-Bukhaari classed it as saheeh).
It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "A woman entered Hell because of a cat which she tied up and did not feed, nor did she let it loose to feed upon the vermin of the earth." (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3140; Muslim, 2242).
The vermin of the earth means insects and mice, etc.
This hadeeth does not denounce the woman for keeping a cat, but it demonstrates that the woman's sin was in not feeding it or leaving it to eat from the vermin of the earth.
The great Sahaabi Abu Hurayrah (literally "Father of the Kitten") was so called because he used to love cats and keep them. He became well known by this name and people forgot his real name, until the scholars disputed concerning his real name and there were nearly thirty different opinions as to what it was. Ibn 'Abd al-Barr said in al-Istee'aab: "The most correct view is that his name was 'Abd al-Rahmaan ibn Sakhr but none of them disputed that he was Abu Hurayrah."
Note: It is permissible to keep cats but it is not permissible to buy or sell them; they may be given as gifts or given away. That is because of the hadeeth of Abu'l-Zubayr who said: "I asked Jaabir about the price of dogs and cats. He said, 'The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade that.'" (Narrated by Muslim, 1569).
And Allaah knows best.
Justifikasi ilmiah katanya anjing najis = rabies
ternyata kucing juga sama saja punya dampak penyakit terhadap manusia (termasuk rabies juga!)
Wikipedia: Because of their small size, domesticated house cats pose little physical danger to adult humans. However, in the USA cats inflict about 400,000 bites per year, with 90% of these bites coming from provoked animals; this number represents about one in ten of all animal bites.[196] Many cat bites will become infected,[197] sometimes with serious consequences such as cat-scratch disease, or, more rarely, rabies.[196] Cats may also pose a danger to pregnant women and immunosuppressed individuals, since their feces can transmit toxoplasmosis.[198] A large percentage of cats are infected with this parasite, with infection rates ranging from around 40 to 60% in both domestic and stray cats worldwide.[199][200][201]
Allergic reactions to cat dander and/or cat saliva are common.[202] Some humans who are allergic to cats—typically manifested by hay fever, asthma, or a skin rash—quickly acclimate themselves to a particular animal and live comfortably in the same house with it, while retaining an allergy to cats in general.[203] Whether the risk of developing allergic diseases such as asthma is increased or decreased by cat ownership is uncertain.[204][205] Some owners cope with this problem by taking allergy medicine, along with bathing their cats frequently, since weekly bathing will reduce the amount of dander shed by a cat.[206] There have also been attempts to breed hypoallergenic cats, which would be less likely to provoke an allergic reaction.[207]
Bukankah seharusnya kucing juga dilarang doong??

Star's cancer sparks rush for checks
Kerri-Anne Kennerley wants her breast cancer diagnosis to be a wake-up call for the public.
"I hope that every one of you takes advantage of the health checks that are available," Kennerley told _The Weekend West _.
Since the high-profile TV personality went public this week with her diagnosis, BreastScreen offices around Australia have been inundated with calls requesting appointments.
The 58-year-old said while she knew her story would have an impact, she had been overwhelmed by the response.
"I have done stories on cancer for 25 years, I know how this works," she said. "When people are in the public eye and they have an illness, things move along and recognition is a given.
"I knew that would be the case but I was staggered by the women who have responded already.
"I am buoyed by the fact that women over 50, they have booked that damn appointment because 80 per cent of breast cancer happens to women over 50." It was while making adjustments to a dance costume for a morning TV performance that Kennerley discovered the lump.
Within 12 hours she had the tests which confirmed it was cancer.
Scrutiny has been placed on Kennerley's decision to put off treatment so she could appear on Channel 7's Dancing with the Stars final tomorrow night.
But she stands by her choices.
"If my surgeon said you need to go in, I would be in like flash lightning. That is not the case," she said.
Whatever the outcome, Kennerley said she wanted to thank the public for their support.

Depression Marathon Blog
- etta
- Diagnosed with depression 19 years ago, I lost the life I once knew, but in the process re-created a better me. I am alive and functional today because of my dog, my treatment team, my sobriety, and my willingness to re-create myself within the confines of this illness. I hate the illness, but I'm grateful for the person I've become and the opportunities I've seized because of it. I hope writing a depression blog will reduce stigma and improve the understanding and treatment of people with mental illness. All original content copyright to me: etta. Enjoy your visit!

Oh I love this blog - And Congrats!!
I have some news to share with you - hope you want to get involved and can spread the word.
I have decided to do a linky – it's called Monday Madness and it's for those of us who blog and have some connection to mental illness. ;D I'd love a community of us to find out about one another and support each other's blogs. These things notoriously take time to get going but I'm starting it now. Of course please come and link up too if you participate in such things.

via press release:
The Taste (8-10pm – 3.3 million and 0.9/3 in AD18-49): From 8-10pm opposite NBC's much-hyped Peter Pan Live! and nearly all-original competition on the other nets, ABC's season premiere of The Taste (3.3 million and 0.9/3) was up from its Season 2 finale in Total Viewers (+3%) and held steady Adults 18-49 (3.2 million and 0.9/3 on 2/20/14), outdrawing the final 3 telecasts of its second season – best since 1/3014. Please note: The Taste premiered last season on the first Thursday of January (1/2/14) against much lesser competition from NBC and repeats on Fox.
Despite the highly-promoted NBC competition, The Taste built 13% from its first hour to its second hour in Adults 18-49 to move up into a tie with Fox's time-slot regular Gracepoint from 9-10pm (0.9/3), which had nearly twice the lead-in coming into the hour from Bones at 8pm.

Best Friends Whenever is a Disney Channel series that was announced on March 6, 2015. Best Friends Whenever was created by Scott Thomas and Jed Ellinoff who together have also created another series before. Production for Best Friends Whenever began that month with the series premiering on June 26, 2015. The series was renewed for a second season on February 29, 2016. On June 30, 2017, Best Friends Whenever was officially reported as cancelled by TV by the Numbers.
PremiseBest friends are there for each other whenever one needs help. In the case of BFFs Shelby and Cyd, that "whenever" can be any era in history. After a science experiment goes awry, the teens acquire the ability to travel through time whenever they want and, sometimes, even when they don't. They try to use their recently acquired power to help navigate their teenage years, both in school and in their family relationships, which often includes going back in time to fix past mistakes. And for some fun, the girls occasionally sneak into the future to get a glimpse of what's to come.
Main Cast/Characters
- Lauren Taylor as Shelby Marcus - Shelby Marcus is one of the two main protagonists of Best Friends Whenever. Shelby is a great girl who travels with Cyd all the time. Shelby is very kind, cheerful, sassy, and can be a bit girly. She is very smart, doesn't forget to think ahead of time, and is very cautious. She is very positive and always wants the best for everyone. Shelby sometimes tends to be a little bit high strung but is always a kind and determined person.
- Landry Bender as Cyd Ripley - Cyd Ripley is one of the two main protagonists of Best Friends Whenever. Cyd's not that intelligent, but is really good at being cool, although she can be really soft inside. Cyd is the rebel kind of girl, who wants to use her time traveling powers as she wishes, and often acts without thinking. She adores getting into trouble and is a bit of a tomboy. She can be very tough at times, and if you get too close to her, you better be careful!
- Gus Kamp as Barry Eisenberg - Barry Eisenberg is the deuteragonist of Best Friends Whenever. Barry is a smart and courageous boy. He knows how to master science and he is the creator of time traveling to help the girls. He is not really good with feelings but he knows smarts alright. He is a nerd and he is scientific but his science skills are beyond infinity!
- Ricky Garcia as Naldo Montoya - Naldo Montoya is the tritagonist of Best Friends Whenever. Naldo isn't exactly the smartest person, but he is able to talk to girls. He is considered smooth and can be random at times. He occasionally loses focus and begins blabbering, and is fun-loving and ready to take on the world. He is also completely trustworthy. Naldo is also good at giving advice and tends to cheer people up when they're feeling down. He is a caring person and doesn't talk bad about anyone.
- Benjamin Royer as Bret Marcus - Bret Marcus is one of the main characters on Best Friends Whenever. Bret is very mischievous and is always a troublemaker. He is an extremely annoying brother but Shelby and Cyd will have to deal with it.

This is just gross!
Even after the outlandish claims by the Kansas democratic governor were totally debunked…
Harry Reid jumps into the tornado politics.
Yesterday BDS blasted Kansas big time as democratic governor Kathleen Sebelius charged that the Iraq War was affecting the cleanup in Kansas after the killer tornado… This was quickly debunked and the governor later backtracked from her original claims when it was revealed that only 10% of the available Kansas guard members were called to the tornado cleanup.
Today… Jennifer Loven spun the tornado-Iraq story horribly for the AP. She does not represent what Tony Snow said at all. And, of course she has to bring up comparisons to Katrina! What a horrible mistruth.
Advertisement - story continues below
This is what was actually communicated at the White House press briefing that Jennifer Loven seemed to have missed:
Tony Snow: This is a success story in the sense that people were moving very quickly to get assets there. So, in response to Fran's question, the Governor said that she had what she needs. She did repeat her testimony that she's been raising the issue about DOD for a number of years in terms of National Guard deployments. When Fran again said, "Is there anything you need to respond effectively to this disaster," the Governor responded, "No. We could not have asked for a faster response. Dave Paulison was terrific yesterday."
The Governor was out of state when it happened, and it was — it was difficult. We were working through staff to get in touch with her. It clearly was a priority to get things moving, and so people did get things moving…
Tony Snow: Let me give you a sense of what's available in the state, because I think — resources available: I already told you 83,000 National Guard units in the region, 99 bulldozers, 61 loaders, 246 dump trucks, 59 graders, 228 heavy expandable mobility tactical trucks, 2,243 2.5 and 5-ton trucks, 70 palletalized load systems. There's a lot of stuff available. So, again, I think this is one where the equipment was available and everybody was moving as rapidly as possible…
…Again, I think, look, potential disaster — you keep trying to say, if we're going to have National Guard units in Iraq protecting Americans you're not going to be able to deal with disasters here at home. The fact is you do have, as I just pointed out, more than 6,000 available units, and there's only 566 deployed right now in Kansas — 6,800 available. So there are, in fact, large amounts — large numbers of individuals and equipment available.
In fact, the democratic Governor of Kansas took back her outlandish comments from yesterday after the truth revealed that only 10% of Kansas guard members are deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan and that only 10% of the available units were moved to to disaster area.
TRENDING: EXCLUSIVE: Amazon Is Censoring The Gateway Pundit Writer Joe Hoft's Latest Book "In God We Trust: Not in Lying Liberal Lunatics"
But… That didn't stop the Majority Leader from repeating the false claims of the democratic governor! …Gross.

UPDATE: Obama jumps into the Twister politics claiming 10,000 people died in a town with a population of 1,574… more than six times as many deaths as Hurricane Katrina.

Comments Tuesdays at the Castle Jessica Submitted by Jessica on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM Just finished reading the manuscript, prior to beginning the Big Edit. Really excited about this book, the first in a middle grade series that will explore the endless possibilities of turning an eleven-year-old princess loose in a magic castle!*Reading aloud to my kids, March 2012.*Reading aloud to my kids, and also to prep for Fridays, June 2014. Reply Tadiana ✩Night Owl☽ Submitted by Tadiana ✩Night Owl☽ on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM Review also posted at Fantasy Literature. Though I enjoy some YA fiction, I don't read many middle grade books at this point in my life unless my 12 year old really twists my arm. But the idea behind Tuesdays at the Castle just sounded so fun that I couldn't resist when I saw it on the library shelf. Its pages were waving to me, I swear! Eleven year old Princess Celie and her royal family live in Castle Glower, which has a life and sometimes quirky opinions of its own and takes an interest in th [...] Reply Misty Submitted by Misty on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM I am a fan of Jessica Day George. There is no denying that. But most of what I've read by her has been more on the YA side than the middle grade side, so even though I was super excited for Tuesdays at the Castle, there was still the question of whether I would like her MG stuff. I'm not sure why I was worried. It flowed along so well and kept me going. Two sittings and I pretty much engulfed it all, continuously telling myself "I should stop after X, I should stop after Y" and I just c [...] Reply Evgeny Submitted by Evgeny on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM I need to mention I received this book from GoodReads giveaways.Princess Celie is the youngest daughter of a royal couple who reside in Castle Glower. The latter is not a regular castle, but something which as Celie suspects possesses some intelligence. It is also grows by itself every Tuesday adding new rooms and making it very hard to navigate it (Hogwarts instantly comes to mind). Due to a series of seemingly unrelated unfortunate incidents, it is up to Celie and her slightly older siblings R [...] Reply Allison Tebo Submitted by Allison Tebo on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM Beware – I'm sick and don't have it altogether so this review might be a bit more fangirling than review. When I first started this story I thought it was going to be a bit more zany and with more of a Christopher Healy vibe– after all, we have a castle that magically rearranges itself to order.Boy, was I wrong. This book was whimsical, but definitely not wacky! And while there is a gentle, sophisticated humor throughout the book, the style is never zany. Beautifully and poignantly writt [...] Reply Jacob Proffitt Submitted by Jacob Proffitt on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM I made the mistake of picking this up after midnight (not telling how far after midnight) to settle down a bit before bed. Four hours later (yes, I know, I'm actually kind of a slow reader—certainly compared to some) I finished the book with a sense of satisfaction that overrode the impending doom of waking in two hours to go to work.This book is aimed at a bit younger audience than I usually read (middle grade?). I love YA novels and wouldn't dream of disparaging a book based on its target ma [...] Reply Barb Middleton Submitted by Barb Middleton on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM When I was 10 my dad had me help him sheetrock the basement ceiling. He piled three phone books on the tallest chair in the house, told me to scramble up as he stood on the ladder next to the chair holding a heavy piece of sheetrock flush with the ceiling. He needed help holding the sheetrock while attaching it to the ceiling. Sweat trickled down his face as I quickly clambered on top of the slippery phone books. Once my head was in position, he used a noisy power drill shooting screws into the [...] Reply Sherwood Smith Submitted by Sherwood Smith on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM Whenever I read a book aimed at a young audience I have to pause and consider how I might have enjoyed it at the age for which it was written, especially if I see glimpses of a really good book in a might-have-been good.This was one of those books. If I'd read it at age nine, I would have loved it to pieces. (Though I would have been convinced that the author stole my castle of appearing and disappearing rooms, but that, as they say, is another story.) The main thing is, at nine, I believed that [...] Reply Sarah Grace Submitted by Sarah Grace on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM Even though I was older than the target demographic when I read this, I still LOVED it! Simple, clean, happy fantasy! Would make a great read aloud! Reply Melanie Submitted by Melanie on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM I took almost 2 years on this one, but the fun was not diminished by the extensive amount of time. If you can still call it fun by the end of the story, life in the castle had turned into something of a nightmare for the Glower children! What a great story tho, with something for everyone and a pretty darn good ending. I just received Wednesdays in the Tower this week too, so that's up soon. Reply Jenn Submitted by Jenn on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM 3/4/17 I am rereading the series in preparation for reading Saturdays at Sea, the last book in the series, and I truly do love this book and this castle.7/12/13 Read this book again with a big grin plastered on my face. Just love it so! I liked all the siblings even more this time and think Pogue is particularly sigh-worthy and Prince Lulath, well, I wish he were real, because I'd like to hang out with him. And with the Castle!

Like many of my friends who've read this, I was equally taken with the castle itself (not only sentient but keeps the monarchy about more than just inheritance!) and Celie, the 11-year-old heroine. I was particularly happy that her siblings listened to her, which I'd been afraid they might not do at points. I also look forward to more of Prince Lulath when I read on in the series! Reply Olga Godim Submitted by Olga Godim on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM This is a charming book, and I enjoyed it very much. I loved everything about it: its cute cover, its fast-moving plotline, and its enchanting, inventive protagonist, eleven-year-old Princess Celie. I regret that I don't belong to the book's target audience – middle grade school children – any longer, because if I did, I'm sure I would've enjoyed this short novel even more. Celie is the youngest daughter of the King of Sleyne. She lives with her family in a magical Castle, a Castle w [...] Reply Valerie Submitted by Valerie on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM I couldn't wait to read this book. It sounded so fun and magical; plus I'm a fan of Jessica Day George. Though most of her young adult books can border middle grade this was the first one with an actual girl of middle grade age. Though my 9-12 years are kind of blur to me I think the heroine Celie sounded just right. Princess Celie is a spirited young girl who lives in this castle. A castle that changes halls, rooms, and closets seemingly on a whim and the one who knows the most about this castl [...] Reply Leslie Submitted by Leslie on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM Once again, a fun read. Character development was better in this one than in Princess of the Midnight Ball. Celie is tenacious and free-spirited, and I do love her bond with the castle. Rolf pulls off the protective-big-brother role very well. Pogue--well, I was convinced he was going to turn out to be a villain, because he was such a smooth-talking ladies' man at the beginning. I was actually kind of disappointed that he wasn't a double-crosser. I love books about siblings, and these siblings-- [...] Reply Melissa McShane Submitted by Melissa McShane on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM I loved this book! Though it's written just right for a middle-grade audience, it belongs with the handful of middle-grade books (most notably Wendelin Van Draanen's Sammy Keyes mysteries) that have enough substance to appeal to older readers as well. I especially liked the characterization of Castle Glower and Celie's relationship with it, something I'd like to see explored in later books. And Prince Lulath! My very favorite character. He is positively adorable. Very, very enjoyable book, and I [...] Reply Annabelle Marie Veronica Submitted by Annabelle Marie Veronica on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM Perhaps a little young for me, but I'll probably totally enjoy it anyway and proudly admit it. :D Reply Heidi Submitted by Heidi on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM Oh friends, you know I am a sucker for setting as character and never has it been so strongly present as in Tuesdays at the Castle. Castle Glower is a main character in this book as assuredly as the royal children themselves. The rearranged and suddenly appearing rooms (that always seems as if they were really there all along) reminded me of Diana Wynne Jones' House of Many Ways, though Castle Glower edges it out in my heart with its temperament. If the castle likes you your rooms will be lavi [...] Reply Emily Submitted by Emily on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM 4.25 stars. Really fun, suspenseful fantasy! I have to admit, though, that I expected to enjoy it more than I did. Sometimes high expectations are just NOT a good thing.*groans* I waited wayyy too long to update this. But sometimes that's a good thing. I'm going to have to chop off the .25, and say that this one was a solid 4. I really enjoyed the different characters in this book, and the fact that they all had distinct personalities. I also enjoyed the angle of the castle being its own charact [...] Reply Collin Submitted by Collin on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM I was genuinely surprised at how much I liked this one. I did it for the PopSugar reading challenge (book with a day/month in the title, obviously) and I wasn't hugely looking forward to it, but it was really, really fun.The adventures that the royal kids get up to are engaging and while the book ultimately stuck to its MG basis, I was also surprised at how serious things got. This book could easily have been some kind of psychological horror if Jessica Day George had let it go YA or New Adult o [...] Reply Lynette ~ Escaping Reality – One Book at a Time ~ Submitted by Lynette ~ Escaping Reality – One Book at a Time ~ on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM I JUST GOT MY SIGNED COPY IN THE MAIL!!!!!!

It is NOT your typical fairytale/princess book. It is FAR from your avera [...] Reply April Submitted by April on May 28, 2020 - 16:16 PM Friends, I LOVE it when setting is a character and Tuesdays At The Castle by Jessica Day George just fuels this love.

That your house could read your mind and give you, in house or room form, whatever you need? For those of you who are Harry Potter-familiar, think the Room of Requirement. Well – Castle Glower, where Princess Celie and her Royal Family live, does just that. On Tuesdays, anyway.

It adds, removes, and changes rooms, sometimes at a whim, other times for very good reasons - like imprisoning enemy spies, or making it obvious who it wants to be the next king. The Castle's preferences are why it's the King's second son that's the Crown Prince (the eldest is training to be a wizard instead). But its favourite is the youngest of the King's children, Princess Celie - who loves it in return, and knows [...] Reply Addy S.

Stow, OH 11-09-2015
Audio-Technica today announced that its SonicPro ATH-MSR7 Over-Ear Hi-Res Audio Headphones have been chosen as the Best Headphones of the Year by Reviewed.com and USA TODAYs 2015 Best of Year Awards. Reviewed.com evaluates hundreds of electronics and home appliances each year in its labs and selects the best products for its annual Best of Year Awards.
The Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7 is designed to deliver the highest level of accuracy and musical realism from high-resolution audio and other top-quality source material. One of the first products to carry the Hi-Res Audio-certified designation, the smartphone-compatible ATH-MSR7 incorporates a host of design innovations including exclusive True Motion Drivers to deliver extraordinary detail, clarity and imaging with a natural tonal balance and extended dynamic range. The headphones are available in black (ATH-MSR7BK) and gun-metal (ATH-MSR7GM).
We are honored that Reviewed.com and USA TODAY have given the ATH-MSR7 their 2015 Best Headphones of the Year award, said Audio-Technica Consumer Marketing Manager Crystal Griffith. Its especially gratifying considering that headphones are among the most popular consumer electronics products and the ATH-MSR7 was recognized as the standout.
The ATH-MSR7 (SRP: US$249.95) features Audio-Technicas True Motion Drivers, which employ an exclusive 45 mm driver with a lightweight, responsive voice coil and diaphragm, along with Multi-Layer Air Damping Technology with a two-layer aluminum/magnesium housing that provides a lightweight yet rigid structure for the drivers, and is specially shaped to mirror the physical structure of the ear to enhance low-frequency sounds. Three precisely placed air vents control the airflow to provide greater dynamics and sonic impact. In addition, the ATH-MSR7 utilizes two acoustic resistors that provide extended accurate bass and improved high frequencies.
The ATH-MSR7s memory foam earpads, flexible swivel design and padded headband ensure a comfortable fit for any wearer. The headphones are supplied with a detachable 3.9-foot cable with an integrated controller and microphone for answering/ending calls and controlling music. They also come with a standard 3.9-foot and 9.8-foot cable and a carrying pouch.
In Brief: The Move to Hi-Res Audio
While many listeners may believe that high-resolution audio came along with the introduction of the Compact Disc in 1982, constraints on the discs storage space always prevented CD audio (standardized at 44.1 kHz/16-bit) from fully and completely reproducing the original recorded sound. The advent and subsequent popularity of MP3s only made this problem more pronounced the necessary compression of these files causes audio information to be lost, thus greatly reducing the audio quality. But with lossless audio file formats, faster Internet speeds, and storage space increasingly easy to come by (and in ever-smaller packages), the push is on to create audio equipment capable of capturing and reproducing true Hi-Res Audio, generally considered to be 96 kHz/24-bit or better. The Hi-Res Audio logo certifies that a product meets the Hi-Res Audio standards. Per these standards, headphones must have transducer frequency performance to at least 40 kHz. As a producer of these types of audiophile headphones since 1972, Audio-Technica is well-positioned to provide audio solutions that meet the demands of Hi-Res Audio media formats, allowing for the full reproduction of their extended sonic characteristics.
Celebrating over 50 years of audio excellence, Audio-Technica is a recognized leader in the development and manufacture of high-quality personal and professional audio equipment. Founded in Japan in 1962 by Hideo Matsushita, the company made its name by manufacturing state-of-the-art phonograph cartridges and tonearms. Today, Audio-Technica is a worldwide group of companies devoted to creating high-performance microphones, headphones, wireless systems, mixers, turntables, phono cartridges and other electronic products.
A reputation for quality, durability, performance and value has made Audio-Technica products the first choice for many of todays top musical artists and audio engineers, and for discerning listeners everywhere. Drawing from its audiophile heritage, Audio-Technica remains dedicated to providing music enthusiasts with great-sounding, innovative audio gear, including the award-winning QuietPoint® active noise-cancelling headphones, popular ATH-M50x monitor headphones, versatile USB microphones, and new Hi-Res Audio headphones and high-fidelity gaming headsets.

Your mattress is one of the largest, most important financial investments you'll make in your life. But when it comes to sleep quality, pillows are almost as important as your mattress. Yet, many people have trouble finding a pillow that achieves the ideal balance of comfort and support.
When buying a new pillow, you should consider certain factors—including loft, density, proper spine and neck alignment, and pillow materials. But the fact is, pillows are a highly subjective topic and your preference is the final decision maker. Selecting the right pillow is all about finding one that is comfortable and provides proper neck and head support. Next time you're in the market for a new pillow, consider these three factors: your sleep position(s), your mattress density, and your body type.
The first thing to look at is your sleeping position. The most common types are stomach sleepers, back sleepers, side sleepers, and multi-positional sleepers. As you may have guessed, each sleeping position benefits from certain characteristics in a pillow. Here is a quick breakdown:
Now, these suggestions aren't scientific in nature or guaranteed to fit your sleep style. And, in the end, it all comes down to what you prefer and what makes you feel the most comfortable.
At Malouf, we offer luxury pillows to accommodate a variety of sleep styles and preferences. Check out these options:
Your pillow is an important addition to your sleep experience and purchasing the right one will help you have a comfortable, restful night's sleep.
Happy sleeping!

1907 Hires Root Beer Mug
At Planet Retro, we are surrounded by all things retro. Ooriginal items and collections decorate our offices.
Here's a Hires Root Beer mug made by Villeroy & Boch in 1907. These mugs would have been used at soda fountains that sold Hires Root Beer.
Hires Root Beer was created by a pharmacist, Charles Hires of Philadelphia, based on a combination of many herbs, berries and roots. The public was introduced to Hires soft drink at the 1876 Centennial Exhibition. The soft drink syrup was marketed and sold to druggists that had soda fountains. Hires contracted with Villeroy & Boch to make these mugs to be used at sales locations to promote sales.
Villeroy & Boch was formed in 1836 when two business rivals, Nicolas Villeroy and Jean-Francoise Boch, merged their three factories to form one new company. This Hires mug was made at the Mettlach, Germany factory. Today their names are synonymous with upscale china and housewares, including tile and bathroom fixtures.
This collectible mug measures 4 ½" tall x 2 ¾" in diameter.
This item is from our collection. It is not available for sale.

Things Primo is agreeing to do if I agree for him to quit his job
Let me change my name back to my maiden name
Only visit his parents once a year
Let me publish my book, although under a pseudonym
More housework
8 comments:
But these things should already be mandatory! Ha!ReplyDelete
"Let" you change your name back?!ReplyDelete
I believe I've already expressed my opinion on the "more housework" thing, which is to say, but OF COURSE he'd do more housework. In fact, he should be responsible for the bulk of it, as well as cooking and running errands.
All but the "more housework" are one-time events. What you need is day-to-day support ... like the kind you provided when you weren't working. I hate to be mean, but until he understands THAT and is ready to commit to THAT, he needs to keep his full time job. And, do more, too.ReplyDelete
Knowing Primo's penchant for arguing semantics, I'd totally spell out what these things mean. ;)ReplyDelete
"More housework" = [chore 1] 3x per week, [chore 2] every Tuesday evening, etc.
You need to put that "no politics discussions" things back in, too. :P
This will turn around on you. Primo does not seem the type to get the short end of the stick willingly, even with his wife.ReplyDelete
Also - you do not need permission to print a book under a pseudonym. You can do what you want with your intellectual property. He can be mad, yes, but he cannot stop you. Nor can he stop you from changing your name. So, what exactly is being promised here? That he won't throw a fit, punish you emotionally for these things?
What Webb said, above, is also spot-on. Does he think that unless you give your blessing, when he stays home he'll do nothing?
All of this just distills down to "if you let me do what I want, I will be a reasonable person instead of a tyrant" frankly.
- AnonymousMonday, September 23, 2013
You also need to add that none of the money you earn will go to political causes that you disagree with. Also, if he isn't going to do all the housework and errand running, then he needs to earn enough money to pay someone else (not you) to do it.ReplyDelete

It protects the crew by enhancing platform survivability by providing timely warning against radar, laser and infrared (IR) guided threats and automatically deploys the appropriate countermeasures.
IDAS can be configured with laser warning, missile-approach warning, as well as the full multi-spectral detection capability for radar; including a Saab digital receiver, DRx, as an option. The system is fully integrated with the BOP-L, Saab's new advanced lightweight countermeasures (CM) dispensing system.
In addition to HAL Dhruv, the system has a long and successful history with proven capability on many airborne platforms such as the Saab 2000, Agusta-Westland A109, Super Lynx 300, Boeing CH-47 Chinook, Denel Rooivalk and Oryx, Eurocopter Cougar, Puma and Super Puma, NH Industries NH90, C-130 and L100 Hercules, and Sukhoi Su-30MKM.
Platforms where systems/components have been installed include: Denel Oryx, Aérospatiale SA 330 Puma, Eurocopter AS332 Super Puma, Eurocopter AS532 Cougar, Denel Rooivalk, AgustaWestland AW109, Westland Super Lynx 300, HAL Dhruv, Boeing CH-47 Chinook, Hawk, C-130, Su-30, NH Industries NH90, Mil Mi-17, Embraer 120, Saab Gripen, Saab 2000 AEW&C Erieye, Dash-8 and Panavia Tornado.

Question 1582) - Please explain further?A: There are two kinds of indirect words of which three words result in one Raj'i divorce when if he intended two or three. They are, "Go into 'iddah/ Clear your womb/ You are now single." The rest of the Indirect words result in one Bainah if he intends one or two, but if he intends three it will be three. These words include, "You are Bain, Battah and Batlah [separated, broken and cut off - because she is cut Off from returning]/ You have free rein/ Go join your family/ You are free/You are alone/ I have gifted you back to your family/ You choose/ I have separated from you and you are free/ Veil yourself from me/ Cover yourself from me/ Be a stranger to me/ Seek another husband."If he did not intend divorce then the divorce does not occur with these words. If however it was within the discussion of divorce then legally* it is a divorce, but not between him and Allaah until he intends it as such.If it was not in a discussion of divorce but both were angry or arguing, then the divorce occurs with any indirect word which was not an insult or abuse. If the insult or abise was intended as divorce then the divorce occurs.In Summary:Raj'i Divorce occurs with explicit words.Related to this is when he says, "Go into 'Iddah Clean your womb/ You are single." Bain divorce is with indirect words when he intends thereby divorce or the condition indicates thus. The Talaq Raj'i becomes Bain if the 'iddah passes and he did not take her back in it.Mughallazh Divorce occurs with three pronouncements, whether it be in three purity periods, three months, in a single sentence, in three sentences in the same purity period, or he intended three divorces with indirect words - except that which are exception from it.* Meaning amongst humans. If he protests at a court that he did not mean it then his protest will not be accepted. This applies to words which can be given to the woman as reply to her request for divorce and not a refusal e.g, "Go into 'iddah/ The matter is in your hands, you choose."~ al-Quduri ~

"In 2002 the then State Attorney General Elyakim Rubinstein ordered the police to investigate the head of the Institute of Forensice Medicine at Abu Kabir Prof. Yehuda Hiss because of suspected corruption and maladministration related to theft of organs.
This came after a growing list of relatives of deceased Jewish Israelis (among them Israeli soldiers) discovered that their loved ones had organs removed without consent. There was a long list of charges against Hiss ranging from unethical behaviour as a medical professional to criminal acts such as the illegal sale of and dealings in organs and body parts, removing organs from deceased persons without consent, and misrepresenting organs in returned bodies.
This did not even involve Palestinians, only Jewish Israelis.
The stories about Palestinian Intifada dead arriving home from Abu Kabir with their organs removed (for which there is hard evidence) begin to circulate widely in the 1990s."

A large number of Shorty's Boys graduated from Decatur High School where they learned under the leadership of Coach how to live and how to make a living. We became doctors, lawyers, engineers, teachers, ministers, managers, production specialists, coaches, military servicemen, accountants, scientist, and entrepreneurs.
One, Albert Brewer, became the governor of the great State of Alabama in 1968. Albert's family had moved to Decatur from Bethel Springs, Tennessee in 1935. Albert and his two younger brothers, Joe and Harry, attended Riverside High School in Decatur during the years 1943-45. Joe and Harry were outstanding football players. No one tried any harder than Albert to make the team, but he was too small. His playing position was guard but later he became one of the football managers.
Albert became governor of the State of Alabama May 7, 1968. He was recognized as an effective leader by national organizations. He served on the Executive Committee of the National Governor's Conference, was chairman of the Appalachian Regional Commission, vice-president of the Southern Governor's Conference, and chairman of the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway Authority. In his farewell address to the state legislature, Albert summed up his years as governor as a time of "peace and progress." After leaving office, he practiced law in Montgomery and Decatur.
He became associated with Samford University as Distinguished Professor of Law and Government in 1987 and was a founder and the first executive director of the Public Affairs Research Council of Alabama in 1988. Over the years, he taught Alabama history to undergraduates and constitutional law and other courses to students of Samford's Cumberland School of Law. He recently was recognized for his role in the constitutional reform movement by the University of Alabama College of Constitution and Information Sciences, which inducted him into its Hall of Fame.
Coach said of Albert, "He was the scrappiest player on the squad. He was much too light to be playing." Albert was small on the football field but he was big in life. He proved this as he grew from a 130 pound guard/manager to become one of the best governors to serve the State of Alabama.
Albert is active in Shorty's Boys fellowship. He drives from Birmingham to attend the meetings. He spoke to the group in January 2008 – great memories from a good man.
He was married to the late Martha Farmer. They have two children, Allison and Rebecca.

Attending online? Book mark this page and return on April 24 to sign into LIVE WEBCAST.
A "middle market" of older Americans –unable to afford private-pay senior housing and care, but with too many resources to qualify for Medicaid – is rapidly expanding and facing escalating health and housing needs as they age. Please join us on Wednesday, April 24, at the Capital Hilton in Washington, DC, for a Health Affairs Forum where we will unveil new qualitative research on this topic and launch a robust policy conversation around meeting future long-term care and housing needs for middle-income seniors.
In their Health Affairs paper to be released on April 24, "The Forgotten Middle: Many Future Middle-Income Seniors Will Have Insufficient Resources for Seniors Housing and Care," authors Caroline Pearson of NORC at the University of Chicago and David Grabowski of Harvard University shine a spotlight on the future health and housing needs of America's middle-market seniors.
Also on April 24, Health Affairs will release two related "Perspectives": "Facilitating Societal Adaptation to Aging," by John Rowe of the Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia University; and "What Can Be Done to Better Support Aging in Community?," by Christopher Herbert and Jennifer Molinsky of Harvard University.
Please join these authors, as well as a panel of policy experts, for a discussion of these critical issues:

Normally in Japan if you're grabbing a lift in a taxi you'll be chauffeured around in style in the back of a Toyota Crown Comfort complete with self opening doors. Not the most powerful or exciting of cars which is why the guys from Team Orange offer a more exciting taxi service with their two car fleet of Drift Taxi's.
The fleet is made up of a Toyota JZX110 Mark II as well as a Toyota JZX100 Chaser with both cars sporting drift orientated modifications. The coolest of which is the twin Bride bucket seats located in the back for a total of 3 passengers per session. Based at Ebisu circuit in Fukushima prefecture, the drift taxi service is piloted by Team Orange's own talented drivers Nobushige Kumakubo and Naoto Suenaga, both active Japanese D1 drivers.
Pricing is simple with a base fee of 25000 yen + 500 yen per passenger for insurance, with a total of 3 passengers that works out to just under 9,000 yen for an hour of sideways action. Alexi Smith from noriyaro.com jumped on board to show first hand what's involved with his latest video.

North Korea's president Kim Jong Un held a surprise two-hour second summit with South Korean President Moon Jae-in at the truce village of Panmunjom on Saturday afternoon to pave way for a summit between North Korea and the United States.
The South Korean presidential office said the two leaders met at the DPRK side of the border village of Panmunjom from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm local time on Saturday, where they "candidly discussed the potential Trump-Kim summit", and exchanged their opinions on implementing the April 27 Panmunjom Declaration.
Moon will release the result of the summit at 10:00 a.m. local time on Sunday, South Korea's Blue House said, without elaborating further.
The two leaders previously met on the South Korean side of Panmunjom on April 27, reaching a historic agreement on the complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and the change of the current armistice agreement into a peace treaty.
Their second summit came after U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday that the United States will possibly reinstate the meeting with Kim. Late on Friday Trump said that "we are having very productive talks with North Korea about reinstating the Summit which, if it does happen, will likely remain in Singapore on the same date, June 12th., and, if necessary, will be extended beyond that date."
We are having very productive talks with North Korea about reinstating the Summit which, if it does happen, will likely remain in Singapore on the same date, June 12th., and, if necessary, will be extended beyond that date.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 26, 2018
Trump on Thursday surprised the world when he sent a letter to the DPRK leader, saying that their originally planned meeting in Singapore on June 12 will not happen. DPRK's First Vice Foreign Minister Kim Kye Gwan responded then that his country is ready to sit down with the United States anytime in any manner for talks to solve the problems existing between them.
China also chimed in on China, when it said that it hoped the DPRK and the U.S. would cherish the recent progress and continue to address mutual concerns via dialogue and push for the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.
The South Korean government also said Friday that Seoul planned to continue diplomatic efforts to maintain a dialogue momentum between the DPRK and the United States. According to the Blue House, at a National Security Council (NSC) meeting held on Friday, the NSC members shared a view that efforts to improve inter-Korean relations will contribute to enhance relations between Pyongyang and Washington and complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

G is for Grateful
I have so many things to be grateful for this week. As you may have noticed, I missed "G" last week. We were in the Blue Ridge Mountains in GA with our best friends and their twins. I have a number of photos to show you as proof positive that I have so much to be grateful for. I'm grateful for a husband who is a better partner than I deserve and who is the father that the girls need; for my beautiful girls who find everything exciting and fresh; for my dearest friend who lets me be crazy while all the time gently nudging me toward a saner place; for two amazing 15 year olds who are excellent role models and friends to my girls; for my hubby's best friend who is always there; and last, but not least, my snuggly bed, two cuddly cats and a cup of Earl Grey with my favorite cookies before bed.

Apple Music Festival (formerly iTunes Festival) is a pop and rock festival held annually as a series of concerts during September at The Roundhouse in London, United Kingdom.
The 5,000 capacity Roundhouse features a line up of pop, rock and indie acts over 10 nights.
Tickets are free and allocated randomly to UK residents who have applied for them. Apple Music members can watch the festival online in HD.
Unlike most festivals, the Apple Music Festival is held as a series of 10 concerts during September. Artists play in Camden's iconic Roundhouse venue.
With a capacity of 5,000, tickets are in extremely high demand. But lucky winners can expect world-famous acts in a much more intimate venue than they would typically play.
Due to the random nature of ticket allocation, the crowd is always made up from a diverse range of people and ages (16+ or accompanied by an adult).
The 2016 line up included: Elton John, The 1975, Alicia Keys, OneRepublic, Calvin Harris, Robbie Williams, Bastille, Britney Spears, Michael Bublé, Chance The Rapper.
Each headliner will also have a support act.
Once the line up has been announced, UK residents can apply through iTunes for the gigs they want to attend. Winners receive one ticket plus one guest ticket, and you will be notified if you've won up to four days before the gig.
You can apply for as many nights as you want, but can only win a maximum of five pairs of tickets. Alternatively, many acts and support acts will hold pre-festival ticket giveaways. Depending on the size of the act, these can give you a much greater chance.
Due to the size of the festival compared with the small capacity of the venue, winning tickets is in no way guaranteed. If you're unsuccessful, Apple music members can stream the event in HD.
Apple Music Festival tickets are completely non-transferable, so trying to use a ticket that you yourself didn't win is quite likely to get picked up by the tight security.
Under 16s will need to be accompanied by an adult, but the vibe is family-friendly due to the acts playing and the random ticket allocation.
Disability Access
The venue caters well for disabled access, see help.roundhouse.org.uk/customer/portal/topics/693768-venue-accessibility/articles for details.
Camping & Other Accommodation
The structure of the festival as well as the location mean that camping is not possible.
The venue opens at 6pm and the acts start around 9pm each night. Camden is a vibrant part of north-west London with plenty of hotels to choose from, as well as excellent transport links to the rest of London including night buses and night tubes.
What to do
The venue is relatively small and nights only consist of the acts. However, the venue is in Camden which is at the heart of London.
Within walking, bus or tube distance from the venue, you'll be able to find everything London has to offer. The venue opens at 6pm and acts start at roughly 9pm, so there's plenty of time to spend the day exploring London's enormous array of museums, bars, restaurants, parks, landmarks and attractions.
Eating & Drinking
The Roundhouse is host to five bars, including a Roundhouse members' bar and a terrace bar. These are great options to be close to the action, but are likely to be busy on the night.
Instead, it would be a good idea to take advantage of Camden's food and drink scene.
Camden Market is open 7 days a week between 10am and 7pm and is right next to The Roundhouse. With over 1,000 unique stalls selling everything from clothing to food to drink to random trinkets, it's a must-visit event in Camden.
Camden also hosts many highly-rated restaurants. Mildred's will provide for vegetarians and vegans perfectly, while Andy's Greek Taverna is one of the top-rated restaurants in London on TripAdvisor.
Illegal drugs are strictly forbidden. All attendees will be searched on entry, and there is the possibility of detection animals at entrances.
As well as illegal drugs and psychoactive substances, Apple list food and drink, flares and fireworks, and bags and suitcases larger than a small rucksack as prohibited items.
Security searches are a condition of entry, and inside the venue security is tight too.
The Roundhouse is a short walk from the closest tube station, Chalk Farm on the Northern line. The Northern line stops at plenty of national and international train stations, including London Bridge, Moorgate, King's Cross St. Pancras, Euston, Charing Cross, and Waterloo.
There's also a bus stop at the venue. The 31, 168, 393, N5, N28, and N31 stop there, providing good links around London.
Apple themselves warn against parking near the venue. Avoid coming by car if possible, or make sure you come a few hours early and park elsewhere.

Important News from the United Church of Christ
United Church of Christ General Counsel Heather Kimmel is advising churches and clergy to recognize that the end of the clergy housing allowance is a possibility.
The clergy housing allowance is compensation provided to ministers by their employers which the ministers can exclude from their income for purposes of calculating federal income tax. The amount excluded is limited to the fair rental value of the home, including furnishings and utilities.
In a memorandum issued to the Council of Conference Ministers, Kimmel advised that a Wisconsin court recently ruled that the clergy housing allowance is "unconstitutional as an Establishment Clause violation, because it is a preference for religion." She goes on to say that the court order "applies only to those who receive compensation in the form of a clergy housing allowance; it does not apply to ministers who live in church-owned parsonages."
Kimmel said the ruling will not go into effect immediately because it is being appealed in the appropriate federal appeals court. She said a decision is expected before the end of 2018.

text: If you have ever visited Toronto, you will likely recognize the iconic CN Tower. You may have even taken the 58 second elevator ride 114 stories up to its circular Look Out, where this photo was snapped. Luckily the timing of my visit gave me the opportunity to catch the angular reflection of the tower, contrasted next to the circular Sky Dome (or Rogers Centre as it is now known to anyone who didn't grow up in the city). The skyscraper condos all around, train tracks below with three bridges across them, the Gardiner Expressway on the left, and even the marina on the top left all capture the angularity of some of the key spots in this beautiful city.

Willoughby Spit Works in Full Swing
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Norfolk District, is making good progress on the Willoughby Spit and Vicinity Coastal Storm Damage Reduction project in Norfolk, Virginia.
USACE and its contractors from Great Lakes Dredging and Dock Company have so far completed 23% of the works, placing some 271,943 cubic yards of sand along the beach.
According to the Corps, the sand used for the project is being dredged from the bottom of the Chesapeake Bay.
The sand is part of a $34.5 million project to reduce storm damage risk to infrastructure along a 7.3 mile stretch of waterfront, which is susceptible to damage during coastal storms.
Once complete, the beach will be 60 feet wide and slope up to 5 feet above mean low water.
The Corps expects that the dredging and beach building operations will be completed by late May.

Let's call this a catch-up post. :-) I'm busy baking chocolate chip cookies for the guys on my sailor's ship who have to work on Thanksgiving, so this might be a disjointed while I move cookie sheets in & out of the oven!
Faye asked recently about how to create boiled wool. I started with some very heavyweight 100% wool jersey, and ran it through a cycle of hot-washer-hot-dryer about three times. I know some people zigzag the edges first, but I didn't, so I did get some distortion. However, I started with 3 yards and I was only making a size 7 jacket, so it was OK.
Next, here are a few patterns I purchased recently. Now I need to get over the sore throat, and find some time to sew them up. (I'm actually not a super dedicated seamstress, sewing while super sick... this is more of a "wow I don't feel great" sore throat so the quilting projects were good to keep my mind off it.)
Vogue 1156.... I love this one. Need to make a muslin soon!
And a really cute little dress that I may or may not ever get to, but which I love looking at anyway. If I didn't go to work in sneakers and jeans everyday, this is what I'd wear.
And finally, some finished photos of the Thanksgiving table runner I made:
I used the "snowflake" stitch from my Viking to quilt the lines.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

The Vogue pattern is a blast from the past- I used it to make my wedding dress in 1976. I thought I looked pretty good in it!

I am so proud that you learned to sew. Look at how much you have created in just a couple of years. I am no longer with Sew Fast Sew Easy, but thought I would drop in the good note that I am very proud of you. I hope all is well at google.
Keep on Sewing - gregory

The month of May was wet for nearly the whole of Kansas, and we happened to be one of the wettest spots in the state with over 30 inches for the month. Spring rains make grass grow and the lambs are good and growing. Photography and blogging has taken a back seat in a year of heavy labor on every front, but I managed to take my camera with me a few times while I did my rounds on the farm.
Trestle Table in Black Walnut
I delivered this table to my client's office last week. It is good to finish a piece and be able to celebrate it. In spite of this I tend to experience a wide range of emotions and second guessing when I finish a job. One thing that never changes though is the gratitude I feel at the opportunity to be a woodworker, one who engages the authentic witness of the trees. They always have a real story to tell about our God and His majesty and faithfulness.
Big Horn Tables in Winfield Walnut
Last year, in collaboration with Crosstimbers Woodworking, we designed and built a series of coffee tables and end tables for the Big Horn River Lodge in Montana. Most of the walnut was salvaged from the rejected timber from the logging of a farm in Winfield, Kansas. Photographer Steve Hebert traveled to the lodge and captured some beautiful images of the tables for us.
