Daddy is in a sandbox
Thursday, July 06, 2006
When Mark was home on leave, on the last deployment, we went to Carowinds. He and I enjoy riding all the rides, especially the high thrill type rides. When we first got there, there was some one taking pictures as people walked in. We received a little wrist band, and at the end of our day, went back to check out the picture. We both loved it. It was a good day.
I understand that this time will be different. Mark is planning on leave for sometime after the holidays. There are a multitude of reasons for this. People ask "will he be able to be home for the delivery of the baby?" Well, no. There really isn't any way to be certain WHEN I'll deliver the baby. I didn't go full term with my first two. Also, he wouldn't have been there very long before he would be attempting to come home for the delivery. So that would make the remainder of his stay very very long. People then ask "what about Christmas?" Well...I suppose he could. But he believes that his guys should be able to try to come home for the holidays before he does. A younger me would have argued with him and become indignant. But how can I complain about him having these thoughts, feelings, points of view...when that's one of the things I love about him? So, after the holidays he'll come home on leave. We'll have our Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years then. The baby will still be infantile. It will still be cold. It will break up his deployment nicely. It will also have benefits for me. Just as it won't seem so long to go for him, it won't seem so long to go for me.
The baby will have more awake time, and she will probably (if she's anything like my first two) be able to hold her head up even when she's on her belly. She will still be tiny, but less a ball of goo, and more a baby. It will all be alright.
Mark called a short time ago. He had been in a first aid type class. They made him watch a Baghdad ER video. Evidently, this video is on certain cable channels. He warned me right away NOT to watch it. I've learned when people tell me not to watch something, to head their advice. I don't become defiant and try to prove anything. I still have not seen "Saving Private Ryan".
He said the video shook him up pretty bad. He said he could look around the room and pick out the Soldiers who had been deployed to Iraq before. Their reactions were different to those who had not been deployed there. It's different when you've experienced it. Mark put it this way. "It's like the people who watch the Hurricane Katrina video's on the news. They say 'Awe, that's too bad. That's horrible' but if you've actually lived through a hurricane and lost everything, you cannot comprehend it" I think that was a good way to put it into perspective, for me anyway.
All of the gravity and reality of the situation came rushing back at Mark. It shook him. He continually spoke in terms of "forgetting what it was like over there". Mark didn't forget. No Soldier who saw "action" in Iraq can forget. They just twist their reality. When you pull a year long deployment in Iraq, Iraq becomes your reality. It's serious business.
Silly civilian situations don't affect you. The first few months you're back at home, Iraq is still your reality. Home isn't reality. Silly things like your wife having a certain way for you to load the dishwasher is beyond comprehension. How can that be important when you had been trying to stay alive and keep your men alive? How can these silly house rules mean anything? Doesn't anyone realise what responsibilities you had on your shoulders? How important you were? How important your job was? So, your civilian life isn't real for a while. It's very nearly senseless. But you start to melt back into it. The way your mind handles it is in equal proportions. The more real your civilian life becomes, the less real Iraq becomes. You don't forget it. It's just not your reality any longer. There is no need for it to be your reality. Your reality isn't checking bridges for people standing on them, ready to blow you up as you go under. Your reality isn't driving down the MIDDLE of the highway, but making an conscious decision (in the beginning) to stay in your lane, because your home now. Your reality is putting the silverware in the dishwasher upside down, so that the food gets washed off it properly. Making sure your children close the door all the way when they go outside, so the dogs don't run out and get hit by a car. Allowing yourself to lay on the couch with your wife for a WHOLE Sunday, watching old movies. This is reality.
Then BOOM!!! You're deployed again. You now get to watch a video that completely changes your reality, once more.

Pleasantly Surprised!
I was pleasantly surprised when I opened my package from Auntie's Beads to discover that these attractive little compacts had beautiful etchings on the back! I was expecting them to be smooth, so I was very well pleased! I ordered several of these and am expecting to embellish them with different colors of Crystal Clay and initials and Swarovski chatons. I am giving them as gifts to some special young ladies who attend my church!

Gorgeous Mirror Compact
I purchased this Compact to make a beautiful piece using Crystal Clay #18887/Blue and adding #13246 gun metal filigree flower(which I flattened), put on top of the clay, then impressed just slightly. While I had time I added various Crystal Chatons to finish it off. It is beautiful and will make a Great Gift.

Danijel Colic and Hajro Velic, of Affton, were charged Thursday with second-degree burglary and felony theft.
Two Affton men pulled over by St. Louis County Police Tuesday were found to have jewelry stolen in a burglary at a South County home earlier in the day, police said.

Editor's Note: Photos of Jon Runyan and others from the Tournament are available to download at http://www.cinj.org/aboutcinj/special_events.htm.
Mount Laurel — Celebrity sports figures including Hall of Fame members from the Philadelphia Eagles, Phillies, Flyers, New York Yankees and Baltimore Orioles met at Ramblewood Country Club in Mt. Laurel on October 3rd to help raise awareness of prostate cancer - a disease that will strike one in six men this year alone. Hosted by Philadelphia Eagles offensive tackle Jon Runyan, the second annual Score for the Cure golf tournament brought in $100,000 to support prostate cancer research at the Dean and Betty Gallo Prostate Cancer Center at The Cancer Institute of New Jersey (CINJ), the state's only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center. Philadelphia Eagles who joined Jon Runyan for the day of festivities and purpose were David Akers, Dirk Johnson, Ben Hawkins, Irving Fryar, Jon Harris, Mike Quick, Joe Pagliei, Merrill Reese, Mike Mamula, Tommy MacDonald and Harold Carmichael. Philadelphia Phillies' Terry Harmon, Gary Maddox and Art Mahaffey also played. In addition, Mike Rozier [Atlanta Falcons], Brian Propp [Philadelphia Flyers], Todd MacCoulough [Philadelphia 76ers], and Bobby Shantz and Bobby Brown [New York Yankees] joined the festivities along with Wil Royster [Baltimore Orioles], Don Tollefson [Fox 29] and Beasley Reese [CBS 3] and Val Skinner, a veteran on the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour. "We are extremely grateful to Jon Runyan and all his fellow athletes for their participation in and assistance with helping us raise dollars and awareness of prostate cancer," said Ronald A. Morton, Jr., M.D., Chief of Urologic Oncology at CINJ and Professor of Surgery, UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. "Our tournament would not have been such a success without the help of Ramblewood Country Club's owner, John Goodwin, who gave his heart and soul to this event." "Teamwork wins football games and teamwork will win the battle against prostate cancer," said Runyan. "More research is needed and if we can help provide support, then we are happy to do so." About The Cancer Institute of New Jersey The Cancer Institute of New Jersey is New Jersey's only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, and is dedicated to improving the prevention, detection, treatment and care of patients with cancer.

"All we know is still infinitely less than all that remains unknown." ~William Harvey
This is my follow up to, Meth and Demonic Forces, where I had just learned of the theory that people with compromised and/or altered states of awareness can be influenced by unseen and dark forces.
Take into mind the quote at the top of the page and you have to know mankind understands very, very, little about the Universe and whatever else there is beyond that. Beyond the Universe how? Maybe more dimensions or another Universe? Maybe something beyond our level of comprehension?
No one knows for sure what is beyond and that is the point – we can only speculate. Denying the possibility that there are unknowns standing beside us or inhabiting spaces in dimensions within our own homes would be ignorant of us. There very well may be dark forces around us. (more…)

But that's the good part of living in a cancer cluster. The bad is that it can be very unsettling. You could make an interesting study on the effects that this had on me and my schoolmates, as the dread settled into us over the years. I remember when I was first learning to drive, I would warily head over to the church parking lots, praying I wouldn't see another cancer car wash when I got there. This is the kind of dread that can even dampen a sixteen year olds joy at getting to drive her dad's Mazda for the first time. The stick shift! And it only gets heavier with each passing year.
But I think my classmates and I agreed that all we could do was Relay for Life and accept it. Even the national news anchors were talking about breast cancer like everyone got it. You would just pray it wouldn't happen to your mom...or your neighbor...or your teachers...and that was it.
It wasn't until my senior year of high school that anyone said differently. We were studying statistics a little, when out of the blue Mr. F began listing the organizations that had visited our suburb to try and identity the cause of our cancer cluster, and what kinds of analyses they used.
"Wait, what?" someone cut in, and it might have even been me. It was first hour, still dark outside, and Mr. F wasn't used to interruptions, but I remember starting at him, unable to formulate a thought other than what?
That was the day we learned that certain zip codes - our zip codes - have exhibited what the CDC calls "a greater-than-expected number of cancer cases that occurs within a group of people in a geographic area over a period of time". Specially breast cancer. Specifically Rachel's mom, Li's mom, Sam's mom. Of course we all lived in that constant dread, but no one could remember Rachel's mom talking about consuming sport fish contaminated with pollutants such as PCBs, DDT, and PBDEs before she died.
Suddenly I was raging mad at my summer playmate, at my stupid, corrupted Lake Michigan. I hated these stupid pollutants and the stupid fish and, really, weren't our cells stronger than that anyway? I was so struck but what I had learned, and so betrayed, that I avoided the lake on my way home, which isn't easy to do in a city which orients itself by north, south, lake, and west.
That evening I found myself googling "cancer clusters in Wisconsin". There were no relevant search results on the first page, so I took deeps breaths and ate dinner and speculated that Mr. F was just too much of an oddball for our high school. This was some kind of conspiracy theory that he had bought into, because he was stupid.
And I dismissed it.
Just like that.
One year later I was sobbing on the floor of the dorm shower because I found a lump in my right breast. I didn't even know where my college clinic was but my mom was already on I-94 by the time I got out of bed, stiff and bleary-eyed from a sleepless night, and trying to go to my Tuesday classes.
This all happened to me so recently that I can hardly write about it, but I'm not sure it will get any easier. That dread that I talked about before? I thought I was suffocating. At the ultrasound, they said I was too young for breast cancer, but then they said the mass was solid and not fluid filled and that I needed a core needle biopsy. I read the breast cancer pamphlet they gave me, but in my mind I was replaying the past summer over and over again. I thought of toxins creeping through my cells layer by layer while my high school friends and I knocked our pop cans together on top of the raft and promised to never forget each other.
I was half-crying and half-throwing together stuff to meet mom at the hotel when I found a James Rhio O'Connor book shoved against the back wall. I vaguely remembered getting it to help with a scholarship but I had quickly lost interest. As far as I could tell it was about some old guy and it was titled "They Said Months, I Chose Years: A Mesothelioma Survivor's Story" (survivingmesothelioma.com). At that point asbestos-related cancers were the furthest thing on my mind, but it was the only health book in my dorm that wasn't about eating disorders, the flu, birth control, or other college things, so I gingerly cracked it open.
Page 2 clearly stated that while waiting for his own diagnosis, Mr. O'Connor "...went fishing and flew radio controlled airplanes, two of [his] favorite pasttimes." And I have to be honest, when I saw the word fish I think I forgot how to breathe. Thinking the book was some kind of novel, I immediately flipped to the end, just to make sure it wasn't the sport fishing that made him sick. And suddenly I was reading about some alternative medicines, and trace minerals, and Reishi mushrooms and lycopene and even the "caveats" he included about how conventional medicines did have worth and everyone needed to find their own path.
And that's when I realized I had been doing everything wrong.
I'm not talking about the dietary supplements and things like that. That's someone else's story tell.
But look. Just look at the sheer amount of knowledge that Mr. O'Connor crammed in the lines of every word in his story. He took case studies, and advice from professionals, and personal experience, and he used that compilation to conquer, to live years beyond what his doctors expected. And when he asks the reader to "find their own path" he is, I think, not advising a headfirst dive in alternative medicines, but an encouragement to research one's way to the best treatment, to health.
How could I have lived so many year of my life in constant dread, letting cancer cluster theory weigh heavily upon me even though I knew practically nothing about it? I immediately went back to do more research, but I found only a sprinkling of articles, a third of a radio program, and a demand that I pay a significant sum of money in order to view University of Madison's findings on the issue. The information I did find was minimal, contradictory, and, because of that, even more terrifying. How could we let this happen?
And I know I am not the only one who has been left in the dark. Think of all the people who would benefit by knowing more about these cancers, from origins to treatments to remission. We have not only the capability, but the responsibility, to provide answers. We can start with urging hospitals and legislators should be to be transparent about alternative therapies, demanding online databases that are more more easily accessible, and aiding cancer organizations in reaching a wide audience.
But above all, we need to have the same drive as James Rhio O'Connor to accumulate and utilize a breadth of knowledge. Knowledge is power, and we will need every single scrap of it if we are to see a cure for cancer in our lifetimes.
I'm somewhat ashamed that it took a personal cancer scare (by the way, my tumor was benign!) for me to recognize just how critical independent investigation can be, and I admire all the people who can recognize this without that kind of prompting. But I tell my story - all of it, even the selfish and stupid parts - in the hopes that someone would read this and think. That they would finally recognize that they have been carrying around this burden of dread, of ignorance, and set it down only to realize how much more they have to learn. It is a struggle to realize our limits are starting us in the face, but it's only once we identity them that we can push forward. We will be so, so, tired, but I think it will be worth it.
Because at the end of the day, I only want to be able to watch the sunrise over Lake Michigan and not be afraid of what it could be hiding!
I suspect that there is a healthy, beautiful world out there, but we must be the ones to discover it - question it, research it, teachers others about it, just as James Rhio O'Connor did - in order to truly live in it.

I own a Dell Inspiron 8500 laptop that has crashed / dead motherboard. When I looked up the warranty on Dell's web site, I found that laptop was under warranty for another 156 days. When I contacted Dell for support, they told me they could not help me because I was not the original purchaser and that I had to do a change of ownership before they could help me. I performed a change of ownership and received an email from Dell that the transfer of ownership has been completed and that I was now the owner. When I contacted Dell again for support with now only 74 days left, I again was told by the tech support guy and his manager that they could not help me because I was not the "original owner" of the laptop. This is not right because from Dell's web site under Dell's policies it says "Warranties on systems may be transferred if the current owner transfers ownership of the system and records the transfer with us." I transferred ownership and received confirmation from Dells US Tag Team. I believe the warranty follows the equipment and not the owner. If I purchased a used car still under warranty and needed service, the car would be processed and fixed under the original warranty. I now have 28 days left to a warranty that Dell refuses to honor. Repair my dead Dell laptop. I am the owner of this laptop as I followed the proper steps explained and listed on Dells web site. As of today I still have 28 days left to my warranty!!
Hi how did you ever make out with this repair? Thanks.
Hi, My name is Todd and I'm a customer advocate with Dell's onlineoutreach program. We try to help our customers via blogs, forums, andother online sites. You are correct, the warranty is carried by the system and if theownership has been transferred it should be active for you. If you can email me the service tag of the system I can look into thisand make sure everything is corrected for you. You can reach me email@example.com. Please include my first name, Todd, inthe subject line of the message so it can quickly be routed through tome and I'll be glad to help you get this straightened out. Thank you, Todd Customer Advocate Dell, Inc. http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2006/11/19/3648.aspx
So, did you get the difficulty taken care of Andrew? Were you able to contact the original owner?
NO! Received this email below. Told me my account was on hold withno explaination and that they were not were unable to checkorder/system details. RUNAROUND!! If my account is on hold why can Istill access it and order!!!! From: Customer_Advocate [mailto:email@example.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 20, 2007 8:32 PM To: Andrew Porowski Subject: RE: Feedback - Dell Computer Corporation Complaint CustomerService from firstname.lastname@example.com (KMM49797869I57L0KM) Dear Andrew Porowski, Thank you for contacting Dell Warranty Support. Andrew, I have checked the records and found that you account is onHold. I am unable to access your Dell Account and find theconfiguration, order details and warranty information of yourcomputer. For this issue I would request you to contact our Customer CareDepartment as they are the best ones to help you out in this matter. You can contact our Customer care Department for assistance at1-800-624-9897 If your issue is urgent and requires immediate assistance, pleaseutilize our 24 hour phone support at 800-822-8965. Thank you for contacting Dell Warranty Support. Respectfully, Rohit Dell Rep ID # D40715 Dell Warranty Support http://support.dell.com
Read it fully here, and call the number given. http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/change_order/en/tag_transfer?c=us&l=en&s=gen&~ck=ln&lnki=0 This is an actual quote of part of thier transfer agreement: All requests to transfer ownership, service, limited warranty and Dellsupport are determined at Dell's sole discretion. Dell reserves theright to refuse to honor transfer requests and requests for warrantycoverage and/or service if Dell has not received payment for thesubject system, even if you have made payment to another party. Youmay not return the system under the Dell Return Policy. All suchtransfer requests are otherwise subject to Dell's terms and conditionsof sale located at www.dell.com. I think there is more involved that you are not telling us.
First, a correction to your letter. "I believe the warranty followsthe equipment and not the owner." You may want to believe this allyou want, but no warranty has the requirement to follow the product. I've worked with many products over the years that require the productbe purchased from an authorized reseller. If the product is not, itis not under warranty regardless of the time frame. These sameproducts may also not allow for a warranty to be transfered. As I carefully reread your letter, I noticed something veryinteresting. You've stated you completed a "change of ownership" andthat you received an e-mail stating that "the transfer of ownershiphas been completed and that I was now the owner [on record]". Butrealize that at no time does any of this speak of transferring thewarranty, only changing Dell's records as to whom the computerbelongs. This may mean the warranty has not been transfered to youand it may not be up to you to transfer said warranty. It may be upto the person who originally purchased the computer. If the original owner is okay with having the warranty transfered, Iwould get him/her on it immediately. Having it delayed further maymean the warranty expires. This doesn't, however, mean that the problem the computer is having isnecessarily covered under warranty.
Hi Andrew, I too have had a horrible experience with Dell's warrantyservice. It's almost as if they want to try ANYTHING to declare awarranty not valid. I know it requires a lot of time and that you shouldn't have to do it,but you need to block out a full day (soon) to stay on the phone withthem until you have a resolution agreement. Escalate your calls and ask for supervisors and managers. If you haveto, do the old "Gee, you've been wonderful with your service to metoday. May I have your supervisors telephone number and email addressto send a compliment about you?" 28 days and counting. With each passing day you should become more andmore of a nuisance to make sure you get repairs needed while underwarranty. Once the warranty window closes, you'll pretty much bescrewed. Uhh.. I mean out of luck. My old Dell Laptop rocked and I referred at least two other people totheir site to purchase their own notebooks. Two more purchases later,I have avoided Dell simply because of their horrible track recordregarding warranty repairs. So far, so good, with HP. Be a Tiger; go get 'em! Best of luck.
Andrew, I feel your pain. Dell tried to pull the same stunt on me. Myhusband is in the military, and we were able to purchase our Delllaptop through a discount arrangement they have with AAFES (Army-AirForce Exchange Services). When my hard drive died, the first person Ispoke to a Dell was very helpful, but when subsequent problemsoccurred, they tried to argue that since I purchased the laptopthrough AAFES, the United States Government was the "real" owner of mylaptop and that they could no longer speak to me about it! I followed the instructions to transfer ownership as well, and in theday or so between that conversation and the transference, my warrantyexpired. Although my current problem was a continuation of the problem thatbegan under warranty, they declared that since I was no longer underwarranty, I would have to pay $49 to receive any assistance via phone. So good luck with your situation Andrew. In my case, I took the laptopto Circuit City, where they fixed my problem for thirty bucks and awhole lot less headache. I hope you fare better.

R13 jeans
Gwyneth Paltrow in R13 Skinny Jeans in Medium Blue
Gwyneth Paltrow was spotted heading out to a photoshoot in New York. The actress wore a pair of R13 Skinny Jeans in Medium Blue with the IRO Cailie Jacket and Marant boots. She then finished it off with the Celine tote. This look has all of my favorite brands put together. Every piece goes so well with the other, even the Marant boots. I am not the biggest fan of that particular pair, but they add an ease to the overall look.
Gwyneth recently stated that she will no longer be attending the Met Gala. I find this to be such a disappointment because I always look forward to seeing what she wears both off-duty and at events. I adore that she is still one of the few celebrities that pushes the boundaries when it comes to dressing and does it well. Are you saddened to hear this? You can click here to purchase R13 from SSENSE.

Rachael Taylor in R13 Zip Leather Pants
Rachael Taylor was spotted out and about in New York. The actress wore a pair of R13 Zip Leather Pants with a pair of Marant sneakers and a washed pink sweater.
I have been waiting for Rachael to get caught in these pants again. I always thought they were a really cool pair. I also like that she paired them with pink because black with a pale pink shade has to be one of my favorite combinations. You can click here to purchase these pants from FORWARDbyelysewalker for $1257.
Jennifer Garner in R13 Jeans
Jennifer Garner picked up her daughters from karate class in Brentwood, California. Violet was seen carrying a Harry Potter book as she made her way out of the gym.
Jennifer wore her R13 jeans with a plaid shirt, brown slip ons and a baseball cap. I think this look really gives off that soccer mom vibe and I like the fact that Jen doesn't let her celeb status detract from her parenting time. She's always seen out with her children!

Gwyneth Paltrow in R13 Skinny Jeans in Faded Blue and Current/Elliott Jacket
Gwyneth Paltrow has the ability to make the simplest of outfits look great. She wore her R13 Skinny jeans in Faded blue with a white blouse and a green army jacket from Current/Elliott.
Gwyneth has been seen in these jeans a few different times and she always keeps her outfits really simple, usually wearing them with a pair of booties. These have a cropped length so they hit her right about the ankle, which is why I think they look good with short boots. I'd love to see her style them with a pair of sandals now that they weather is warming up. You can buy R13 jeans online at SSENSE.

Single? The key to meeting new people is only an unlock away!
If you are single and looking for ways to meet your match, you've got to try a Lock And Key Party! It's the hottest interactive and FUN way for singles to socialize, make new friends...or just to have a great time! The party hosts have taken a regular happy hour and mixed in the ULTIMATE icebreaker theme. It's like no other singles party you have ever attended!!! Every woman gets a lock and every guy gets a key. The mixing and mingling sets off after a few basic instructions on how the party works from the party host. Each partygoer now has the perfect "opening" line to break the ice..."Can I see if we match?" The laughter, joy and occasional scream when someone has found a match is now a regular part of the evening as shyness has long since faded away. The party is high energy and fast paced, but what a great way to unwind after a long work week...or a way to kick off a night on the town!
LockandKeyEvents.com is headquartered in Ft. Lauderdale, FL and run these unique singles mixers all across the United States in over 35 cities. The company's slogan and trademark phrase says it all…"Unlock Your Possibilities".
Attendance is usually between 100 and 200 single professionals, so the possibilities of finding someone special are endless. The company closely monitors the event rosters in an effort to make sure that there is a close to even balance of men and women at each party. Once guests find a match (unlock), they turn in their hardware and get a new lock or key and start the process all over. The more matches a guest makes, the more chances they have to win some great prizes at the end of the night when a raffle of sponsored gifts is conducted.
Sponsored prizes have included a singles cruise for 2, resort hotel stays, $100 cash, bar tabs, gourmet gift baskets, spa gift certificates, sporting game tickets, free admissions to other local singles events, and much much more.
Darren Waldholz, owner of the company, claimed originator of the Lock and Key concept, and the South Florida Event Coordinator, states 'the number of matches a person can have in a night depends on the pace they set for themselves. 'People can get 10, 20, 50 or 100 matches, but what I've seen at my events is that the average is seven to 10, and I think that comes from the fact they are meeting people they actually enjoy talking to. Waldholz has heard comments like 'I've met three really great guys; I've got three phone numbers, that's successful.''
Waldholz created LockAndKeyEvents.com back in 2002 and began setting up the icebreakers in major U.S. cities. The first one was held in Miami, FL and was a huge success. The number of event cities has quickly grown to over 35 with more ready to launch later this year.
Waldholz also runs speed dating events for PreDating.com and has run both events for the past 7-8 years. While he thinks speed dating is a pretty good introduction method, he said it doesn't work for everyone and thought there had to be another way to meet a lot more people in one night that was a little heavier on fun and lighter on pressure. He remembered the not-so-subtle nut and bolt events he had attended when he was a student at the University of Florida (where the men were given nuts and the women bolts, and the aim was to find the ones that fit together and, hopefully, a date). Waldholz wondered why not do something similar, yet a little less crass, with locks and keys?
'There aren't that many options for meeting people face-to-face,' says Waldholz. 'Speed dating is a good event, but it's limited in the number of people you interact with. I wanted to start something where we had a lot of people and everyone interacts with everyone else.'
It's that level of uncoerced participation that excited Waldholz and prompted him to launch the company. 'Most social events I've been to in the past, I've sat around and met one or two people out of a hundred because there's no reason to walk up and talk to them. If you're a shy person, forget it, you're dead in the water.'
Think of it as your typical after-work happy hour or get together. It's fun, there's no pressure and you can talk to whomever you like for as long as you like. Each Lock and Key Event Coordinator has been carefully chosen and possess the strong event management, marketing and promotional skills needed to ensure large scale, quality events in great venues in many major cities.
The added enticement of having a chance to win a great prize helps too. 'There're no wall flowers at our parties. No one is going to be standing around or sitting by themselves because everyone wants to win the prizes we offer,' says Waldholz. 'And the girls get so excited when they get unlocked, that you'd think they just won a new car,' he says and laughs. 'It's a very exciting event.'
Many women view the events as a fun sidebar to a night out, and the locks and keys as a great excuse to talk to anyone, including the gorgeous guy they would never have approached in another social setting.
The consensus, especially for men, is that Lock and Key Events work because the girls have a reason to approach the guys instead waiting to be approached as is the usual game play in the typical bar scene.
Waldholz says sometimes the girls, who wear the padlocks on a string around their necks, just come up and stick out their locks. No surprise that the sexual innuendo gets everyone a little silly, which combined with a drink or two and you can only imagine what a fun and wild event it can be. 'If you could only imagine some of the come-ons,' laughs Waldholz. 'But don't get our party concept confused with the more mature and similarly named Key Party. We are not that type of party!'
'All the unlocking fun concludes with a series of prize drawings and the awarding of our 'Locksmith Award', which we give to the guy or girl who have opened the most locks or were unlocked the most.'
The prize drawing process is a great opportunity for local and national businesses to get there products or services some additional exposure to a crowd of singles for little or no cost by serving as event Prize Sponsors.
Lock And Key Successes
The company has also had its share of success stories to date. In fact, one happy South Florida couple wore the actual Locks and Keys worn when they met at an event at their wedding and gave the company pictures to display on the website.
Another partygoer who met her husband at a Philadelphia, PA Lock and Key event is now the Pittsburgh event host. The couple also lays claim to the 1st 'Lock and Key Baby' the company is aware of. And we hear that a second one is on the way soon!
Some interesting statistics about Lock and Key Events:
· 537 events have been held since its 2002 launch
· Approximately 52,000 people have attended these events
· Approximately 83,000 active members (email addresses)
Lock and Key Events is very excited about its new partnership with SHI Symbol International. SHI has selected Lock And Key Events to assist in introducing their jewelry line, dog tags and other products for singles in the U.S. market. Lock And Key partygoers will have the opportunity to win the fashionable SHI Symbol jewelry, dog tags and body products during the event's prize drawing.
The arrangement between the two companies will also allow Lock And Key Party Hosts the opportunity to take the lead in coordinating sponsorship and entertainment for large-scale promotional rollout parties for SHI.
'We believe the SHI symbol is the perfect identifier for single individuals' says Waldholz. Married people soon won't be the only ones with the ability to display their relationship status. According to census facts on the website Unmarried.org, 'over 40% of the U.S. population is single'. That provides SHI with an enormous pool of people who would be open to proudly displaying their Single, Happy and Interested status with a SHI symbol.
'We're looking forward to a long collaboration between Lock And Key Events and SHI Symbol International' says Waldholz. 'We are ready to unlock our possibilities!'

Hi, New here...... I am a business major with 11 years experience working 8-5 in a trading environment... While I have done well in my current career, I have always day dreamed and brainstormed about start-up ideas, business models, ect, longing to work for myself one day. Over the years I have come up with some good (and some not so good) ideas and have seen at least two of my ideas put in play by someone else, and becoming highly successful.
The ideas have always flowed from my mind, and I am / always have been a creative thinker.... thoughts of creating my own business have come and gone over the years, ebbing and flowing depending on career developments, ie, new promotion / excitement in career, my mind would engage in the current career and I might go months or even a few years without much entrapenural thought..... but as always, the creative ideas begin to flow as soon as I begin to feel less engaged as the new position / challenge begins to wear off... (I am currently in that career)
I believe I have come up with a business model / start up idea that is very valuable....it has so much potential that I am afraid to discuss it with anyone unless I am sure they will not be interested in "stealing it" or unable to act on it. What few discussions I have had with these "non starter" types has always resulted in positive feedback, and universally:
1) Wow thats a great idea
2) "I would be interested in that" (as a customer)
3) If you do it, let me know (would like to be in on it, but has no intrest / ability to start it themselves)
1) How do I further develop the idea and get "professional" feedback without jepordizing my idea to someone else (obviously internet is bad choice)
.....can I copyright it as a business and also the model before operation?
>The start up of this business would require low capital (low barrier to entry)..... BUT, done right, a barrier to entry could be created via momentum, I see the biggest challenge is not in start up cost, but in organizing and building to critical mass quickly and professionally.
So, as my concern layed out above states, this Idea has high risk of takover / copy cat / ratting.... due to relatively low cost of entry... My strategy would be to roll out the buisness at once with great impact and "create" barrier with mass, trouble is, doing so would also lay the idea out to several people over say, 3 to 6 months before startup "roll out" occurs..... First, I see starting the "core" of the business with 6 to 10 professionals, then the marketing phase and then rollout phase.... It is a business that creates ownership for others (franchise) and requires little time for those phase two owners, but would be highly attractive and rewarding. Requires no manufacturing and little selling, because it sells itself! It would be Internet based. When I think about this Idea I see a current void / need and this idea fills that need. Why it is not being done already, I cant understand, but its one of those "Someone will sooner or later"
THE QUESTION RE-STATED: Can I copyright the idea / model before beginning the business ? Does copyrighting really protect my intrest ? Does it (copyrighting) protect me enough to discuss it with oher like minded professionals (those who would be most likely to "steal" my idea in some fasion) ?
Thanks for your help !

This map needs your voice. Contribute to this collaborative map and help accomplish its 2 big goals.
To protect and sustain these waters, first we need to strengthen the bonds between the citizens and organizations who care deeply about them. By sharing our care, worry, and wisdom we can multiply our big ambitions. Our relationship with the Great Lakes needs a fundamental shift. The current approach is comfortable diluting pollution, managing risks, marketing resources, and building exclusive playgrounds and vistas. So our second task is to define and practice a Commons ethic. The waters are a shared Commons and should be respected as a gift. The Great Lakes give us life, identity, and a shared duty to revitalize them. Rather than responding, a Commons ethic leads us toward a new vision based in relationships, belonging, and collaboration.

Compare the smart shoppers flitting between the galleries and boutiques around Beyoğlu's European-style central drag, Istiklal Caddesi, with the modestly dressed and headscarved weekend picnickers in mosque gardens in conservative areas like Fener and Balat. Or the old men sipping glasses of dark tea in the recesses of the Grand Bazaar with sleekly dressed patrons sipping cocktails in smart bars along the Bosphorus or on Beyoğlu rooftops.
Compare also the historic Istanbul and the modern – it's a well-worn cliché but one that is impossible to escape with this city. As the centre of two great empires – Ottoman and Byzantine – Istanbul is steeped in a weighty heritage. At the same time, the modern city is possessed of an enormous, creative, forward-looking energy, with a young population open to foreign influences and ready to embrace change, but creative enough not merely to import it.
Hence homegrown bands are at last finding their voice – and the right recording deals, while musicians from abroad play to packed houses; the 2006 Istanbul Biennial was the biggest ever in terms of international contributions, and local visitor numbers; people flock to cinemas to see foreign films during the International Istanbul Film Festival, while at least 30 new Turkish films were due to hit the screens in 2006.
Modern Istanbullus have a real appreciation for their roots, which means there's no danger of throwing out the old to welcome in the new. New bands may be forging their own modern Turkish identity, but everyone – old and young – still enjoys a night of traditional folk or fasıl music. Expect plenty of singing along and energetic dancing – possibly on the tables – in the bağlama bars and meyhanes of the city.
A respect for heritage is also evident in Istanbul's well-preserved historic buildings and monuments – and the Istanbullus who choose to spend time visiting them. If you're not yet an aficionado of Ottoman history, you probably will be after a few hours at Topkapı Palace, hub of the empire. Its pavilions are filled with imperial treasures ranging from heavily bejewelled objets to artefacts from Mecca; its beautifully decorated harem quarters are sizeable yet still manage to feel claustrophobic.
And this is only one stop on the tour; there is so much more to see. The small Church of St Saviour in Chora, for example, is home to some of the best-preserved Byzantine mosaics and frescos in existence; and the architecturally outstanding mosques are open to all.
An appreciation of the past – both cultural and monumental – and a willingness to forge the old with the new are two of Istanbul's greatest assets. Both are vital factors in the creation of a city identity that is unique and always fascinating.
im doing a topic on countries and places in school and my citie is istanbul and this website has given me lots of infomation to put in my work
thank you
Turkey proudly sits astride two continents; a position that has given rise to a culture that reflects both East and West. It is a country where European aspirations sit comfortably alongside Asian traditions and the volatile atmosphere of the Middle East morphs seamlessly into the relaxed outlook of the Mediterranean world. Turkey was Byzantine territory and Istanbul - then Constantinople - was the political centre of a vast Christian empire. Romans, Persians, Lycians and Phrygians were former occupants of the same territory, and earlier still, Hittite tribes had built an Anatolian empire before collapsing around the time of the Trojan Wars. Such a rich history has left an indelible mark & Turkey abounds with historic sites and archaeological wonders set in a varied and beautiful landscape. The Mediterranean coastline is punctuated with well-preserved Greco-Roman cities such as Pergamom and Ephesus, while the austere and rugged Anatolian plateau has cave churches hidden away in the improbable fairytale landscape of Cappadocia. Istanbul, still very much the pulse of the nation, has even more to offer, with Roman aqueducts, Byzantine churches, Ottoman mosques & palaces. www.venividitravel.com
Turkey is a land of myth, a cradle of civilizations, a canvas of nature's most aesthetic bounties & a confluence of varied streams of culture. Owing to its favourable position, Turkey is the bridging nation between the East & West (Europe & Asia) & therefore boasts a spicy blend of oriental & modern, splendor & sleekness, which makes diversity its other name. In Turkey every visitor can find something for themselves. The world class cuisine, vibrant cities, warm hospitality, recreational facilities, historical attractions, cultural heritage, over 8000 km's coastline & an unparallel natural beauty make Turkey an irresistible holiday destination for independent or group travelers... www.exclusivetravelturkey.com

If your license is late in coming
This is just a note to people who have been waiting 4 or more weeks for their license to come form USAC. If you renewed/bought your license online you should have it within 2 weeks. If you renewed/bought your license by mailing in a hard copy form to USAC then it might take 2 to 4 weeks. If you renew/buy your license at a race it can take 6 to 8 weeks to get your license. If you have been waiting for your license for much longer than the above times then you probably need to call USAC about your license. The number is 719.866.4581 The most common reason why licenses don't get to you is due to an error in your address information. There also seems to be a black hole that pops up every once in a while that sucks up licenses after they have been processed so they never get delivered.
If it has been more than a month since you renewed your license ( unless you renewed at a race) and you don't have your license back from USAC there is probably a problem and you should call USAC.
If you bought/renewed your license online on Dec 9th, Dec 16 or Dec 17th and you haven't received it yet you probably need to call USAC. It seems that licenses from those dates were printed by USAC and turned over the the company that mails the licenses but several people never received their licenses. If you bought/renewed your license on one of the above dates and you haven't received it yet please call LInda Buffetti at 719-866-3295 and she will have your license reissued and sent to you again.

This is great underwear for workouts. They are very comfortable and not too compressive. They have more of a cotton feel than the typical UA gear. I usually buy one size up on UA underwear because it is so tight and it shrinks. The large fit me well and I normally wear a medium. If you like them tight order your regular size.

I was somewhat satisfied with the compression shorts. My only problem is that if they could have been 2" longer they would have been perfect.

Bear Stearns Fat Cats Cashed Out at the Top
BOSTON -- Wall Street bank Bear Stearns (BSC) is right at the heart of the subprime mortgage meltdown. It's reeling from massive, multibillion-dollar losses at two hedge funds.
And every investor who has watched the stock collapse from more than $172 to just $117.78 in a few months is probably kicking himself for not selling at least some back at the peak, before the crisis hit.
Four savvy investors did just that.
Step forward, Alan Greenberg, Sam Molinaro, James Cayne and Warren Spector.
Who are they? Top honchos at ... Bear Stearns. (Or they were: Spector has now left in a management shake-up. The others remain.) Between them, the four quietly cashed out more than $57 million worth of company stock before the crisis hit. The executives saved themselves nearly $16 million by their astutely timed sales, which were disclosed in a series of public filings. Those losses got passed on to the unlucky outside investors who bought the stock. Bear Stearns declined to comment. These executives did nothing wrong. Many of the stock sales were made as share options came due at the end of 2006. Certain executives had made similar big trades in previous years. The trades were made several months before problems surfaced at the company's hedge funds in May. Furthermore, Bear Stearns executives are still holding plenty of stock in the company. Nonetheless, their timing last winter was notable for its good fortune, if nothing else. Once again it shows that company insiders seem to prove pretty good at knowing when their own stock is overvalued and when the future risks do not justify the price.Select the service that is right for you!

Compiz Is Likely To Get The Boot From Fedora 17
Posted by Michael Larabel on February 03, 2012
Fedora 17
a massive amount of features to look forward to
, updates to Compiz is likely not on the agenda. In the coming days, Compiz and its related packages for this compositing window manager are likely to be removed from the Fedora 17 package-list.
Compiz is on the list of packages that are set to be "retired" from Fedora. There's a whole list of the packages set to be retired from Fedora 17 in
this mailing list message
The package retiring comes from packages that no longer build against the current state of Fedora and/or are orphaned by meaning they no longer have an appropriate (active) package maintainer. All of the Compiz packages have been orphaned (meaning there's no maintainer) and so as such they are likely to be stripped away in the next week if no one picks them up. The retirement list for Fedora 17 has been floating around since last month and no one's been interested in Compiz yet.
Granted, this isn't too much of a big deal since the default Fedora 17 desktop will be the GNOME 3.4 Shell, which uses Mutter as its compositing window manager. There's no other desktop environment in Fedora 17 that's dependent upon Compiz, unless
the Unity desktop discussions for Fedora
actually materialize. The Unity desktop is the last big user of Compiz, with the compositing window manager project itself still being developmentally challenged and as of yet has been unable to hit the 1.0 release milestone. There's also
the MATE Desktop
(GNOME 2 Fork) as a potential Compiz user, but that hasn't been picked up by Fedora yet and so far has seen limited new development.
