Apr. 25, 2004 - CLAYTON, N.M. -- The gun shots that left bullet holes in the Eklund Hotel ceiling won't be returning, but the beds have.
The Eklund Hotel will officially re-open with a ribbon cutting and rededication at 4 p.m. Monday in the lobby of the hotel at 15 Main St. in downtown Clayton.
A U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development loan for $2.6 million, along with $200,000 from the New Mexico State Historic Preservation Office and persistence on the part of the local folks, brought the hotel back into operation.
The hotel was built by Carl Eklund in 1892, according to Ernie Watson, with the USDA rural development program in Albuquerque, N.M. It started as a shop with rooms for rent on the second floor.
A saloon was added in 1894, and in 1898, a dining room and kitchen were added. A third story and balcony were added in 1905, Watson said.
The restaurant and saloon have stayed open in continuous business, but the hotel operations were suspended in 1973 and the building essentially sat half empty, he said.
Kendyl Monroe, chairman of Eklund Association, Incorporated, said the hotel was built in Clayton's early days as a railroad town and it catered to railroad passengers.
"It's built of natural stone and is really quite elegant appearing on the exterior," Monroe said.
He said the Eklund Association, Incorporated was formed by 19 individuals, most residents of Union County, in 1992 specifically to acquire the building, continue the restaurant operation and restore the hotel operation, Monroe said.
Two other organizations had tried before and failed, Monroe said.
When the association took over, the restaurant operations were marginal at best, so that occupied everyone's attention for some time, Monroe said.
Things started turning around a few years ago and it began generating the cash flow needed for the market surveys, designs and to apply for financing, Monroe said.
"Obtaining financing became a difficult thing to do because of the isolated location. The commercial institutions wouldn't touch it, regardless of the numbers," he said.
The association went through the USDA Rural Development program and it accommodated all the needs, including when the project went over budget, Monroe said.
"When we got in the process of bidding construction, most contractors were uninterested because of the location. We did get a New Mexico contractor, but the bid was considerably higher than the estimated cost and we had to go back to USDA," he said.
"It was a very long process. The completion of construction has been delayed for a multitude of reasons and the opening has been delayed, but this is a good time of the year as the tourist season is beginning to pick up," Monroe said.
And the hotel is ready, all 26 rooms. The halls are a little misleading, because all the doors to the original 42 rooms with community bathrooms were left in place, but the rooms were expanded and now each rooms has its own bathroom.
He said the rooms were redesigned to accommodate current tastes and there's modern amenities such as coffee makers, televisions and clock radios in the rooms, but it has been a historic preservation project.
Eklund Hotel manager Phedra McDowell said renovation work began in June and was completed April 5, then it opened for business that night. The first night, it had about 12 guests.

I often hear people mention faith in statements of comfort during a difficult time or when every prospect of success seems bleak – there's good ol' trusty faith ready for use like a spare tire. I have referenced faith those ways as well. Sometimes a situation is so big that everything in us wants to have faith but we just can't. Death, disease, natural disaster, loss of employment, divorce… these are real, hard situations.
I grew up hearing the saying, "keep on living…" and I never quite understood what it meant. Now I know that it means as life goes on, you'll be faced with many kinds of issues – some so big you feel like nothing can help. Many of us are familiar with Hebrews 11:1, "Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen: it gives us assurance about things we cannot see." But knowing the definition of faith without proper application is like having the ingredients to a cake with no recipe – it's useless. You'll probably come out with something but it sure as heck won't be as good as the real thing! I'm going to share how I've applied faith to move from just having faith to exercising bold faith! Let's bake a cake!
What is Faith?
The passage in Hebrews says, "Faith is the confidence…", confidence in what? God? Ourselves? Both! 1 John 5:14-15 says, "And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for." First our confidence is in God because what we are asking is pleasing to Him. Think about what you're believing for. If it's pleasing to God, then you can have confidence that it will happen!
Philippians 4:13, another well-known scripture, says, "For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength." After we've put our confidence in God, we can have confidence in ourselves because Christ lives in us! I find it reassuring that I don't have to rely on my own strength or knowledge for the things I need. The same power that Christ used to perform miracles is the same power He will use to move mountains in my life. All I have to do is believe!
Hebrews 4:16 says, "So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most." There's that word – bold. It's one thing to make a timid request being unsure if it will happen or if your request will be heard. We already read in 1 John 5:15-15 that God always hears our prayers. Now this passage in Hebrews is telling us that we can make our request with boldness! I can ask God boldly for the things I need and rely on the power of Jesus Christ to help me endure until it's fulfilled. When I ask my husband to fix something that's broken, there's no doubt in my mind that he will take care of it because that's what he's always done. This is how we need to view our requests to God. God is all-powerful, all-knowing, and in all places – there's nothing He can't (and won't) do for us!
Hebrews 11:1 goes on to say that we're depending on what we hope for to actually happen. There are countless accounts in the bible of great acts of faith. Abraham and Sarah. David and Goliath. The Woman with the Issue of Blood, and so many more! Why not add our names to that list? Having faith isn't just a pleasantry to share during a time of trial. It's vehicle that we use to navigate from despair to triumph! Don't cheat yourself by wishing and hoping and praying. Be determined to have bold faith!
How do we use faith?
Sometimes opportunities fall into our laps. For the other 6 ½ days of the week, we gotta work for it! Don't wait for the "perfect time", that doesn't exist (I've searched every clock – it's not there ;-)).
These are the three ways I put my faith into action:
- Pray
Mark 11:24 " I tell you, you can pray for anything, and if you believe that you've received it, it will be yours."
- Speak
Isaiah 55:11 "It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it."
- Do
Romans 4:21 "He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises."
Tell God what you want. Pray about it. Journal it. Create a vision board. Habakkuk 2:3 says, "The vision is for a future time. It describes the end, and it will be fulfilled. If it seems slow coming, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It will to be delayed." Make plans for what you're believing in to come to pass. If you truly believe that God will do what you asked for, you'd prepare for it! Think of it this way: When I was pregnant with Cheyenne, I couldn't see her. Even the image on the ultrasound wasn't really her in the flesh. But, I could see my belly growing and feel the changes in my body. Her doctor gave me an estimated due date but no one knew exactly when she would come. I knew and believed that she was going to arrive soon so I made preparations. This is the same way we need to view God's promises. Sometimes we see and feel small changes but we can't see the promise nor do we know when it'll happen. Despite our inability to see the end result, we need to believe that it's going to happen and make preparations!
When faith doesn't work
Faith always works, but, not always in the way we hope for. We can all name a time when we really believed in something and it didn't happen for us. From passing a test to the passing of a loved one, there are times when we put our all into a thing and find disappointment. As discouraging as it is, that doesn't mean your faith isn't working! Romans 8:28 says, "And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them." We may not understand why things happen the way they do. In fact, scripture says that we can't understand all of God's ways. But we can believe that in the long-run, there is purpose for everything. It hurts to lose someone we love or something we've worked hard for, but, your resilience after a storm can ignite someone else's faith. After all, isn't that precisely what we're here to do?
Having Bold Faith
So how can we take our faith to the next level? By taking the training wheels off! It's time to put away the recipe card and bake that darn cake from memory! If you mess up, it's okay! Go to the store (The Bible) and buy more ingredients (your faith) and try again! 2 Chronicles 15:7 says, "But as for you, be strong and courageous, for your work will be rewarded."
If that dream doesn't come to pass. Create a new dream! Read my blog about overcoming obstacles. Don't just talk about faith, be a living example of it. Of course it's scary to step out into the unknown but that's where all the good stuff is. Your comfort zone will always be there, don't go through life wishing and hoping when you can be living!
One thing I know about faith is, the scarier of a situation you apply it to, the stronger your faith becomes. Faith is like a muscle, you need to exercise it. And like a muscle, if you lack to give it proper nutrition and exercise, when it's time to utilize it – it will fail. Don't allow that to happen! Trust God and ask Him to increase your faith and give you the boldness to use it!

This tax exemption for foreign companies means that they don't pay the same taxes as Canadian businesses on what they earn in Canada — Canadians for Tax Fairness
Canadians for Tax Fairness
"The amount Canada loses to tax havens will drop when the federal government genuinely believes that helping a hungry child is more important than helping the wealthy avoid taxes." — Larry Brown, NUPGE President
"Thanks to P3 privatization schemes, money that should be funding quality public services is ending up in tax havens." — Larry Brown, NUPGE President
"One of the biggest differences we make in the lives of others is when we pay our taxes. It is our taxes that pay for the public services our communities depend on to survive. A corporation that is dodging taxes cannot claim to be morally responsible." — Larry Brown, NUPGE President.
Growing concern that vested interests will scuttle this small but important step towards a fairer tax system.
"We have been pressing the government to fix the flaws in the Voluntary Disclosures Program that led to the offer of a sweet deal to wealthy individuals using the KPMG Isle of Man offshore tax scheme, even though the government was taking KPMG to court to get the names of those clients" — Dennis Howlett, executive director of Canadians for Tax Fairness
"It's time for the Canadian government to review and renegotiate tax treaties with havens that enable this behaviour." — Dennis Howlett, executive director of Canadians for Tax Fairness
"It is too early to be certain whether this dip is an emerging trend, or just a blip as has happened before. But this could be a sign that global efforts to curb corporate profit shifting to tax havens may be paying off." — Dennis Howlett, executive director of Canadians for Tax Fairness
It goes without saying that Bombardier, the Royal Bank, the TD Bank, Potash Corporation are not emerging companies or start ups and their wealthy CEOs do not need subsidies from regular taxpayers.
"Why does anyone need an anonymous company, except to do something sketchy?" says Dennis Howlett, executive director of Canadians for Tax Fairness.

Moving is exhausting! Over the past month we have been very busy fixing, painting and packing. The weekend was our D-day! And I am happy to announce that we-have-successfully made the transition from townhouse in the East to house in the Moot.
Kobus was in charge of moving furniture, boxes and everything else. The poor man worked so hard! I am so grateful to have a hubby who isn't scared to get down to business. He jumped in and didn't stop until it was all done.
My biggest goal on Sunday was to make sure that my kids' rooms were sorted and ready when they came home from a "visit" with Ouma. The kitchen was the next challenge and thankfully my dear friend, Tracey came and took charge.
With further ado, I will present you with my top 7 tips for moving house:
- Plan. The fact that we planned our move made an enormous difference. Of course life happens and things don't work out the way we always want it to, but knowing where you are and what still needs to happen gives you an added advantage.
- Moving with kids is always hard, when a toddler is included in the equation it is nearly impossible. My 2 cents, involve the little one. Oliver was with when we viewed the property, when we signed the contract, when we move the first load of pots and plants. He was aware that things were happening and because he was involved he was cool with it.
- See-through refuse bags. We only used a couple of refuse bags, mainly for tupperware and lounge scatter cushions. But seeing what is inside the bag without having to open and look inside made a big difference.
- We will need to practice this one for the next time – communicate. We had a nightmarish experience where the previous tenants was in no hurry to vacate the property. My advice is to communicate with the previous tenant. Communicate with the landlord. Communicate.
- Ask a relative or friend to babysit on the day of the move. Having 2 hands and my ears, to myself, at all times was bliss.
- If someone offers to help, graciously accept.
- Have a room in the house, in our case it is our study, where boxes can remain closed and out of the way. It is lovely walking into the house and not having the boxes in my face as a constant reminder of what still needs to be done.
Can you add any tips?

In a 5-4 ruling (surprise surprise) the Supreme Court has laid the smackdown on the ACLU and ruled that a cross can stay in the Mojave Desert as a war memorial. Tony Kennedy wrote the plurality opinion, invoking the thousands of crosses overseas marking graves of unknown soldiers.
Justice Stevens dissented, arguing that
"[The cross] is the symbol of one particular sacrifice, and that sacrifice carries deeply significant meaning for those who adhere to the Christian faith."
The article notes that this decision did not settle the issue, but rather punted it back to the lower courts — the First Amendment question was not at issue, but rather a federal law requiring the government to transfer the land to private hands.
Adam Liptak notes that
The 5-to-4 decision provided an unusually vivid glimpse into how deeply divided the court is on the role religious symbols may play in public life […]
With the talk of Washington being who Obama will appoint to replace Justice Stevens, it seems that this decision will end up being relevant in the upcoming confirmation hearings.
Is the cross endorsing the Christian faith? I don't think it is, but then what do I know, I'm just a law student. I think we should keep religion out of politics altogether, but I laugh at the thought of our wonderful leaders in Washington adhering to that idea.

Vanity is as gaudy as a whore's dress.
An incurable affliction comparable to
Dorian gray's grin.
Reality breathes a lonely, rude reality-
awakening wounds tenuously closed.
Beauty's canvas is smoothed in a
fragmented glass that once showered
radiance as she used vanishing cream to
smooth away life's imperfections.
Tending the image she sees in her glass,
living a life dictated by the subconscious
influence of others.
Feeding the human poll with her ideal
narcissistic solutions hidden behind photo
shop and selfies.
Stuck in their reverie, living off exaltation,
attention seeking and flattery.
Constantly gloating and fishing for praises.
Egotistical: caressing a fake reality, living a lie.
She walks from mirror to mirror like a ghoul.
Serenading an idolized plastic body.
Obsessed with her fake external façade.
Living a life through imaginary flashing bulbs
as she gazes through psychotic eyes crystallized
with lies in search of approval and validation.
Pieces of vanity graze the fields of her dreams
like a haunting memory as she frowns at her
diminishing beauty, withering body and skin
A ghostly reflection shown through the broken
images of vainglory dashing into the illuminating
beam of reality.
A theatrical presentation of life's ironies and
daunting realities, an outcry ensured.
The walls of vanity crumble, crashing with her
malevolent fragrance of reality.

This month, with two others I led a workshop for teachers and administrators in how to best serve homeless and unaccompanied high school students within our classrooms. We here at CEG have decided to make this issue—teen homelessness in Volusia County—our singular focus until we have strong impact on the problem.
The most powerful educating at this workshop, and it was an excellent one with all participants working together, took place while we listened to and asked questions of one of my copresenters. She is a Daytona State College education student, and was a VCS unaccompanied student. Because of the response of the group, we are forming a district-wide cadre to share ideas and problem solve. If you would like to participate, you first need to come to the training, which will be repeated toward the end of summer. Please contact me to add your name to the list; we can do this. Please read my previous blog post on this website to read more about this remarkable young woman's story, and to read tips from the INSIDE of homelessness for educators.
The picture below is of one of my sons, used with his permission. But, keep in mind, there are over 2,000 identified homeless students attending Volusia schools. How many are unidentified? My guess is, at least twice that number. And many of them look just like Jimmy, your typical NSB teenager. Homelessness is often completely invisible, especially in our classrooms. On purpose.

BOSTON (Reuters) - Three Yale University students, including a Briton and a Greek national, have been charged in a case involving the burning of a U.S. flag outside a Connecticut house, a court official said on Wednesday.
Said Hyder Akbar, 23, Nikolaos Angelopoulos, 19, and Farhad Anklesaria, 19, were arrested on Tuesday and charged in New Haven Superior Court with reckless
endangerment, arson, breach of peace, criminal mischief and other offenses
If you begin to doubt the tolerance of the great unwashed American public, imagine what would happen to you, as an American, if you went to Greece and burned a Greek flag or went to Pakistan and drew a cartoon of Mohamed or went to Britain and said grace before eating.
How burning anything can be protected as speech is beyond me. I did okay on that part of the SAT where they ask you "spoon is to cereal as ______ is to paper", but speech and burning? Yet another example of our pasty judiciary bending over backwards to kiss the ass of those who would stick a fork in ours. Besides, flag burning is so done. It's like wearing Doc Martins, a Che Guevara t-shirt and a PLO keffiyeh, radical just like every other poseur lefty college kid and ultimately as pointless.

Happy birthday Princess Marble!
So, two years ago, I brought home this little thing…
And today she is turning three!
Wow, time has gone by so quickly, and to be honest, she has hardly been anything but trouble… Don't get me wrong, she is a wonderful horse, but she has had so many problems with her legs already that I do find myself wondering if I am ever going to ride her, and especially if it would be wise to breed on her one day in the future…
But that may just be the pessimistic part of me speaking… it's just that I have learned one thing in the world of horses. Never take the future for granted. Marble turning three today, it huge for us!
And her locking stifles has not bothered her for almost a week now… fingers crossed… Of course it is raining today, which means that she may not be sleeping much, which usually leads to problems…
But no, staying positive here. It's her birthday. Precious, precious little girl.
By the way, I recently discovered that since Marble is a thoroughbred, she has to be registered for riding, if I want to show her, once she grows up… Imagine that….
This means, basically, that Apocalipse who has no pedigree at all, can compete, no questions asked, but my thoroughbred mare, born and raised in Denmark, with a pedigree dating back to the 17th century, she can't. Why? She is a race horse.
Clearly the Danish Equestrian Federation don't see too many race horses live to grow old enough to compete- that is four years old, by the way. They even told me so, when I called them and asked why Marble wasn't showing up in their computer system.
That's not the Equestrian Federation, by the way, that is the department for agriculture who has to register the horses, and then the Equestrian Federation draws their information from them. They told me that Marble has to be registered as a foreign horse, meaning that I might as well have imported her from England or anywhere else, because they had a formula for registering foreign horses, but not one for registering trotters and race horses… because, there just aren't that many of them…
I guess that statement speaks for itself, sadly. Just not that many, live to turn four, so the department who registers them, doesn't even bother to have a formula that allows you to register that it is still alive.
I am so glad Marble never saw a race track, and being told something like this, makes me even more determined to work through her problems, and bloody register her, just because… She didn't die on the track. Apparently she is one of the very few of her kind.
So hang in there Princess. If you will let me, I'll make sure you live to grow very, very old.
But for now, let's have a great summer, shall we?

Online identity is your personality visible to the online world. It is constructed by partial identities, which are a subset of characteristics making up your [online] identity (Internet Society, 2015). Many internet users prefer to maintain a professional, alongside a social online identity. I will examine the advantages and disadvantages of having multiple online identities.
Possessing several online identities is beneficial as it can spread out your name. Costa and Torres (2011) argue that having open identities allows for a more reachable presence. For example, having LinkedIn aswell as Tumblr can increase your employability as professionals will find it easier to find and contact you. This is supported by the fact that 75% of recruiters use Facebook to select potential candidates (Independent, 2015).
Furthermore, social media online identities can develop your professional identity. For example, Faze Censor has YouTube, Twitter and Instagram profiles which have attracted business associates to offer him sponsorships with Gfuel and Gymshark, thus enhancing his professional identity as he is a face for these companies.
My online identities, they work to my advantage as employers have several ways of finding and contacting me.
However, there are several disadvantages to having multiple online identities. As your online identity can also be constructed by others, for example friends on Facebook tagging you in posts (Internet Society, 2015), this can offset employers. With 60% of employers screening the social media profiles of potential candidates (Business News Daily, 2016), Michael Page (n.d.) points out 69% of employers have rejected candidates based on their social media activity. University students like myself are most at risk.
My profile from an employers viewpoint. My posts are visible, but sensible, whereas photos and videos I have been tagged in are hidden.
Zadi Diaz explains in her video that when possessing multiple online identities, you should keep your posts professional even when being personal. This is due to employers screening the online profiles of their potential employees, reinforcing my previous point. This is why I refrain from offensive Facebook posts, which can be seen in the image above.
Another disadvantage of multiple online profiles is identity theft. This is the loss of control over one or more of your partial identities, a common example being Facebook 'fraped' by a friend. Another example of identity theft is that you could be deceived into disclosing important personal information to the wrong person (Internet Society, 2015). The email below which I received relates to theft on PayPal.

I was on a trip to New York to visit a friend and had some time to kill during the day ... so naturally I found myself wandering into the Vera Wang Boutique - just looking for ideas and inspiration. Within minutes I absolutely fell in love with the dress and knew it would be the one - or at least the inspiration for the one. It was classic and elegant and unlike any other dress I had seen. Perfect! I never SERIOUSLY considered getting the Vera Wang for my actual wedding dress but took my mother in to see it in the London Boutique once I had returned from my trip. I wanted to try it on and discuss the style with her and how we might be able to achieve the 'look'. She ended up making the decision then and there – nothing else would ever come close! I feel very lucky to have had such a beautiful dress and this definitely helped shape and inspire the rest of the wedding.
My most memorable moment was completely unexpected. Unbeknown to me, Gareth had asked his tailor to embroider our initials into the cuff of his dinner jacket at his final fitting. During our photos, we had the opportunity to have a quiet moment to ourselves, and this was when Gareth revealed what he'd had done. It was such a surprise and incredibly sweet … and sums up Gareth's understated charm perfectly. After having a hand in every decision relating to the wedding - it was nice to be surprised by something small but very touching.

I know, historically I've done a Weekend World-Changer Homework bit on Fridays, so we can all cruise into the weekend full of love and light and the joy of making the world a better place. But today I'm not feelin' it. Today I'm having a tantrum. And before we get started, I need to make a couple of things abundantly clear:
1. There will be swear words in this one, because I cannot bring myself to self-censor on this topic.
2. This is a safe space. We have a little dog who likes to bark at everything; that's fine, because he's a dog and that's how dogs roll. However, periodically he gets a little extra riled up and turns into a snarling hell beast, and that's when we squirt him with the water bottle. The same holds true here: you are always, always, always welcome to express dissenting viewpoints; however, snarling hell beasts get sprayed in the face.
Are we clear? Ok, let's rock this.
Here's the thing. Today I was poking around the interwebs (I was on Pinterest, if we want to be specific), and I ran across a pin from someone who is opposed to gay marriage. And I get it: this is a hot-button topic for a lot of people, and people's opinions are frequently diametrically opposed. That's ok; arguably, being able to express diametrically opposed opinions is half the fun. And I understand that, in much the same way people don't want boys joining the Girl Scouts, a lot of folks don't want gay people joining the Married People's Club. I don't necessarily agree, but I get it.
And I am totally down with people speaking their truths. If you are opposed to gay marriage, you have every right–particularly here in the good ol' U. S. of A.–to say so. For example, you might say "My religion prohibits gay marriage, so I do not believe it should be legalized". Or maybe "Gay marriage makes me uncomfortable in ways I don't entirely understand, so I would just as soon not have to think about it". These are totally ok. Got it? Totally ok. Not everyone is going to agree on every point, and that's really, very, totally ok.
As you may have picked up from previous posts, I draw the line at bullying. It is never ok to be a bully–say it with me, folks: It is never ok to be a bully–and I am so. goddamned. tired. of watching people cross that line. In a lot of cases, I don't think they even realize they've gone there; I suspect they feel that they're just speaking their truths, but are forgetting to consider the effects of their words and actions on other people. The pin in question had the comment "Gays BURN IN HELL FOREVER!!", and if you're not clear on why I see that as bullying, then perhaps it's time for a little example/counterexample.
So let's review briefly, shall we?
Statement of opinion: "I do not believe gay marriage should be legalized."
Bullying asshattery: "Gays shouldn't get the same rights normal people get."
Think it through: Do you really want to play the "X is normal, Y is a deviation, and therefore Y does not get the same rights" game? You might recall that this argument was used to justify racism for a long, long time. Ditto for sexism. What's next–people above 6'0″ are abnormal? People below 5'4″ are abnormal? How about people with brown hair? People with blue eyes? People who make less than $45,000/year? This is a slippery slope, people, and you do not want to start down it.
Statement of opinion: "My religion is opposed to homosexuality."
Bullying douchebaggery: "Gays are an abomination."
Think it through: Pick an example randomly from the above list. I've arbitrarily selected "being taller than 6'0″". Now suppose that your child (or anyone else you love) was told that being taller than 6'0″ is an abomination–not just "unfortunate" or "unusual", but a full-on abomination–and that therefore they were subhuman and doomed to burn forever in a lake of fire, etc, etc. Moon Man is 6'4″. You do not want to go there with me. Sure, he's weird in some fun and exciting and periodically rather trying ways, but he is not an abomination, and I will eat the heart of anyone who says otherwise.
Statement of opinion: "I am uncomfortable with homosexuality, and would prefer that my child never be exposed to any gay people or told that homosexuality is acceptable."
Bullying dickweaselhood: "Gay people prey on children, raping them and/or converting them to the gay lifestyle."
Think it through: …Sorry, I'm having a hard time articulating this one, because I am literally angry with rage. No, gay people are not going to prey on your children, in the same way that Catholic people are not going to steal your babies so they can increase the number of Catholics in the world. You're probably not going to be able to keep your child from ever being exposed to gay folks, or from hearing about gay folks, or from interacting with gay folks, and you know what? They are probably still going to be every bit as safe as they would've been otherwise. I say "probably" here only because every group has its deviations, so I'm sure that there probably are gay pedophiles roaming around somewhere; but for that matter, there are plenty of straight pedophiles, and probably some bisexual pedophiles, and y'know what, I don't want to type the word "pedophiles" anymore. Bottom line: Gay people are not going to rape your babies, either physically or mentally. Are you friggin' kidding me?
So here's what it all boils down to for me: Please, by all means, speak your truths. Even if we disagree. But please, for the love of all that is holy, take a second to contemplate the line between "expressing your opinion" and "being a bully"…and if you think you've crossed that line, then back the hell up. I don't care if you're speaking from behind a pulpit or spray-painting someone's locker; if you're using language to abuse another person, you are being a bully, and that is unacceptable behavior. Own your shit, apologize, and try again in a less hateful way. Because I've gotta tell ya, I tune bullies right the hell out. Your message falls on completely deaf ears when it gets to me, and all you accomplish by using hateful language is getting yourself put on my Short List of People Who, When I Am President of the Universe, Will Be Spending a Lot of Time Writing Apology Notes to Everyone They Have Hurt.
You may want to start sharpening your pencils now.

"Friends for All Seasons"
It was one of those days. The dog had eaten the meat that was defrosting for dinner, my daughter was moaning about her homework, my son wanted to skateboard in the hall and the dry cleaner gave me someone's toreador pants instead of my husband's suit.
I needed to vent and I had two choices – my husband or a girlfriend. She won.

"A Little Rebellion Not Always Bad"
Perhaps I should have felt angrier at my son for lying to me about where he was, but after the initial hot, mad flush of temper that made me want to scream "I'm-going-to-throttle-you-how-could-you-do-this-to-me," I felt suddenly, unexpectedly calm.

"I Can See Clearly Now"
My eyeglasses, with their copper-colored oval frame and lenses that thicken at the edges like the bottom of a Coke bottle, are more than an accessory. They are the first things I put on in the morning and the last things I remove at night. I place them just so on my bed stand, lens side up so they don't get scratched, at the ready in case I need to leap out of bed at the first rumble of an earthquake. I'm paranoid about losing them or breaking them or even scratching them just enough to fracture my view of the world.
(Sometimes, though, maybe the world is better when it's softer around the edges.)

"Personal Phone Book Tells Tales"
My personal phone book has seen better days. The blue cardboard cover is stained and torn, several pages are held together with tape, and there are Post-it notes and scribbles everywhere.
It traveled well from high school to college and far into adulthood. But it is time to retire the poor thing and start anew.

"The Zen of Laundry"
I've never been one for household chores. I hate vacuuming, dislike dusting and abhor washing floors and cleaning toilets. But doing laundry I can get into.
There is something Zen-like about laundry chores. There is a fine ballet in the laundry steps: swooping up the dirty clothes, tossing them gracefully into the maw of the machine, swirling in detergents that will clean and fabric softener that will, well, soften. The clean smell of a load well done soothes the senses.

"My Postman Really Delivers"
I love my mailman. Let me the count the ways. Daryl is strong. He's reliable. He delivers.
Who doesn't love a man who shows up every day, six days a week, through rain, sleet, snow and the Book-of-the-Month club?

This is a midnight tale, although not one to be confused with the ride of Paul Revere or Cinderella's revelation. It's about one man's over-sized ego and the business of Major League Baseball.
The relationship between MLB and the players union is never easy. At best, it's the equivalent of a boxing match, each man circling the other, eternally vigilant. Perhaps a better analogy would be a mating dance with a rattlesnake. Both sides are distrustful of the other, with good reason. Prior to 1995, the parties had eight work stoppages in 23 years. But with so much money in the game - an estimated $6.4 billion in revenue this year - the relationship during the past 15 years has been one of tolerance, the better to accommodate each party's selfish financial interests.
Two years ago, the parties amended the Collective Bargaining Agreement to establish a new deadline for signing college and high school players taken in the June draft. Under the old deadline, teams had until players attended their first college class in the fall to sign their draft picks. Players who didn't sign a contract would go into next year's draft and the team would receive an additional draft pick the following year. The signing "deadline" wasn't a deadline at all, with schools starting at different times and players enrolling in classes but failing to show up, negotiating all the while.
The new deadline set a firm date. Any player not signed by midnight on August 15 would go into next year's draft. Turns out the "deadline" became the day agents initiated serious negotiations on behalf of their clients, thereby putting more pressure on clubs to up the ante or risk losing a future star.
Which brings us to this year's draft. Vanderbilt third baseman Pedro Alvarez, the Pirates' first-round pick and number two overall, was represented by none other than Scott Boras, the mega-agent who has been a thorn in the side of MLB for over two decades. When the clock struck midnight on August 15, the Pirates didn't have an agreement with Alvarez. But the parties were so close that MLB, without notifying the union, granted an extension beyond the midnight deadline. By the early morning hours of the 16th, a verbal agreement had been reached: Alvarez would receive a $6 million signing bonus.
But Alvarez wasn't the only player negotiating against the deadline. Prior to midnight, the Giants gave Florida State catcher Buster Posey, the number five overall pick in the draft, a $6.2 million bonus. When Boras found out that Posey's bonus exceeded Alvarez', he had Alvarez renege on the deal with the Pirates. Boras' reasoning was simple: No way a number five pick (not represented by Boras) should receive more than the number two pick (represented by Boras). So Boras filed a complaint with the union, which in turn filed a grievance against MLB for violating the CBA.
Boras' ego-driven attempt at revenge also jeopardized the contract of Kansas City Royals' draftee Eric Hosmer, the third overall pick in the draft. MLB had granted Hosmer a 45-minute extension to the deadline before he eventually signed with the Royals for a $6 million bonus. Hosmer's agent: None other than Scott Boras.
In the midst of the grievance hearing, MLB and the union began negotiating in earnest. Both sides had much to lose and little to gain from a long, drawn-out legal process that would further delay the careers of both Alvarez and Hosmer. The end result: Alvarez agreed to a contract with the Pirates for…a $6 million bonus, the same figure he had agreed to in August.
If Alvarez had signed in August, he could have been sent to the Minor Leagues, gaining valuable experience in the process. By starting his professional career in 2009, he may have cost himself a year on the other end, when he could be pulling down a salary in the $15-20 million range.
In the end, the Pirates got their man, albeit six weeks late, MLB promised to do what it had already agreed to do – adhere to the August 15 deadline, the union maintained the "integrity" of the CBA, and Boras did what he does best, represent his client's interests, even when it isn't necessarily in his client's best interest.

A Toyota Avensis has a key that does double duty as a remote keyless entry fob. With regular use, these keys can become stuck or worn from use. If you'd like to replace the buttons without replacing the entire key, then ordering a new set of buttons or scrapping a used key is the best way to go. Otherwise, you will pay for an entire replacement key, which would cost you considerably to have cut and re-programmed.
Purchase a used key online from a dealer. Since you are using the key for its buttons, it doesn't matter if the transponder works correctly.
Turn over your old and new Avensis keys so the Toyota logo is facing down. Toward the metal key shaft on each, you will see a small Phillips head screw. Loosen these screws.
Remove the button plate from the keys. Place the used key buttons into your working key and close.
When debris gets caught between the contacts and the buttons, the key will no longer function. Take this opportunity to clean your key out with canned air. Change the battery while you're at it. A watch battery will work. Be sure to insert with the positive side up.

The other day B and I were watching Teen Mom 2 and the issue of Child Support came up it was really interesting to see how it was handled and like most other things (especially when we're watching Teen Mom) it sparked a debate between us.
Corey has an agreement with Leah to pay $500 a month for both girls. Was $500 too much to be paying a month for two kids? B seemed to think so especially since Corey took the kids every weekend. But I on the other hand wasn't so sure. $500 a month seemed more than reasonable to me considering that he only has them on the weekends, that he has a full time job where he brings in money as well as the Teen Mom 2 money.
In the end it seemed like I was right since they upped his child support payment per month to $800. And then there is Chelsea and her baby daddy who is on the show so little that I hardly know his name. It seems as if he doesn't even pay child support much less take the time to actually see his daughter for more than a couple of hours per month.
It left me realizing that I really don't know much about child support at all despite the fact that technically speaking I'm a single Mom and I have quite a few friends who receive or are trying to receive child support.
After coming across this infographic it made me realize how little I know about Child Support in the US and that no matter where you are we all face similar issues and questions.
In the U.S some of the stats are similar. For example 17.1 percent of families as of 2009 were lone father families which is a little higher than the Australian statistic but still very similar. This isn't surprising to me at all. Pretty much every family I know that has separated the children live with their mother for a majority of the time and the father gets them 2-3 days either over the weekend or during the week.
I'm sure there are many of you out there who are dealing with child support issues right now. So tell me, do the statistics in this infographic surprise you in any way?
Is your situation more like Corey and Leah or Chelsea and Adam?

slowly it pours
by howaretheyfor
beautiful brown boy with eyelashes that tangle with wishes like whispers that buzz on you. You collect broken glass in plastic bottles, and in the night you dream them together, a great glass horse that will take you away with the rising of the sun with wishes like whispers you still believe that you can fall asleep and wake up someplace completely else.
Man with no legs with your hands wrapped around my ankles you say, "I still believe the sun might not come out, that I might wake up tomorrow no longer a broken man, but a machine of the ocean made of gas and fearful of the light, I will eat color. And the mermaids will worship in my passing as grains of dust in great wind I will be the fleeting orgasm of the ocean."
Crippled old lady picking at the walls with her nails, trying to build her skin anew you listen to the sounds that are stuck in between those spaces, in the woods and plasters and concretes, the sounds that the walls keep for itself not letting pass through to the listeners on the otherside. The wall you pick at now is filled with only the final seconds of a man's orgasm, ameed has made love to his wife exactly every two weeks for 7 years, all other sounds pass the squeakings and chirpings and talkings, things falling and step takings yelling at children but that final groan and grunt and drop the wall has kept for itself. Crippled old lady picking at the walls with your nails, licking the plaster and sticking it to your bones for lack of skin covered in ameed's final sound
The sky above this city is empty. Like all things unpresent that are felt, homesicknesses and absent people, this city has above it a great negative space and I wonder everyday somehow at it. How it does not become filled with wires and balloons and taller buildings, it seems unhuman to let the great bowl of nablus's sky go unfilled with shit and filth, wires and pipes trying to suffocate this city there will come a day when we live in cloud and like great sick breaths, we will ferment; I listened to a bee dying in a can of coke today, buzzing and buzzing, brushing up against the sides getting syrup on its wings eventually it slowed and the aluminum humming ended all at once with a sound unlike all the sounds that characterized the bee's life. A stop and a wet click; Do all things end in specific sound, cut short an end sound;
Is there hate in the world to battle against the love or is there love in the world to battle against the hate? Again, all these questions are phrased wrong, necessarily wrong. They come together, hate is a love as love is a hate, you cannot love something without hating something else. You cannot believe something without disbelieving something else my muscles are great pink electric slugs that live in my bones. They do my bidding. We do things. To life, we do things to the space around us, we put labels on things and try to make sense of our feelings and thoughts, we build and create and live and die and struggle and love and in certain perspectives we squalor in filth, we shit and get piss on ourselves, we beat our friends and forget our dreams and become boring and uninteresting and easily distracted, forgetting what it was like to be a child ceaselessly curious about everything and in other perspectives we are quietly beautiful, handing customers candy over counters with your hands, smiling and looking at strangers, pausing a moment before stepping into your home filled with children and husbands filled with love and excitement to be apart of life and in other perspectives we build walls around people, we make them necklaces of concrete and pierce their flesh with chains of barbed wire and leave stains on its earth and boys with guns at all its holes. In perspective, everything changes yet we tend constantly and unendingly toward making it simple, toward a single perspective toward a black and a white and a right and a wrong and that's why falling in love is so great. Because your perspective becomes hyper localized, no longer looking for meaning and searching for answers you are as a newborn baby again hungry for food and thirsty for milk and lonely for touch, you don't need to see all the passing trees their bark and leaves there is only a vibrating feeling inside of you that is god;
hungry for food and thirsty for milk and lonely for touch, really though, why do we stop dreaming? Why do we give up, lose faith in our legs and bodies, why do we stop dreaming becoming curious of the horizons walking toward purple and green heat storms, a desire to be in and apart of everything. A high school question, a 20 year old question, but I ask it again and again, all I want in life is to speak to move and speak and speak to little children whose bodies are the keys of god their fingers the perfect size for prying into the cracks of the earth, their bodies small enough to go forgotten pushed into the dark spaces opening doors where the air speaks its hunger, no longer drinking tears off our cheeks and semen off our stomachs in silence, but loud and demanding, sucking the juice through our pores the air eats in that place.
Wishes like whispers though soft are heard by someone somewhere, right? Hope, belief, better to ask the questions that have no answers or to find answers for the questions that do? Neither better neither worse, believing both sides, recognizing the absence of an answer
By means of the external sense (a property of the mind), we represent to ourselves objects as without us, and these all in space… The internal sense, by means of which the mind contemplates itself or its internal state, gives, indeed, no intuition of the soul as an object; yet there is nevertheless a determinate form, under which alone the contemplation of our internal state is possible.
My feelings, my thoughts, my magnetisms. I am inadequate to make sense of myself. I am not enough

Thirty Days of Feelings: Day Five
November 30, 2012 Leave a comment
This year I'm undergoing a bit of an experiment: Thirty straight days of doing/watching/listening to/reading something that makes me feel – however fleetingly – like an actual human being, in the hopes that this will thaw a layer of ice off my frozen shriveled little heart, and allow me to not be such a buzzkill this year. So let's get to it.
Day Five: Wednesday Addams
Look, it's Friday. I have to go to the gym, catch dinner with John and Jonah, then go to a party thing downtown. So this is gonna be super short and sweet. This is something I found just recently, and no, it doesn't make me cry. Instead, it makes me laugh so unbelievably much, my abs hurt. So here, in all its glory, is Wednesday Addams dancing.

Vikings offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur is one of the most in-demand head-coaching candidates interviewing for vacant jobs, but there's one additional reason his candidacy is attractive, especially to a team in need of a quarterback.
If Shurmur ends up being hired by a quarterback-needy team that he has interviewed with — Arizona and the Giants stand out — he could bring Vikings free-agent-quarterback-to-be Case Keenum with him, league sources told ESPN.
Shurmur and Keenum have developed a close working relationship in which the two men "both think very highly of each other," according to one source.
It's only natural, then, that if Shurmur's new team needed a quarterback, the man he's expected to look to would be Keenum, who has played like an MVP candidate this season in Minnesota.
Shurmur has received interest from the Cardinals, Bears, Lions and Giants. Keenum's contract is up after this postseason, and his value could grow with each round he helps Minnesota advance in the playoffs.
Shurmur has been Minnesota's offensive coordinator since November 2016, when he was promoted to replace Norv Turner. Keenum, 29, passed for career highs of 3,547 yards and 22 touchdowns while throwing just seven interceptions this regular season.

I was never the Betty Crocker type by any means. The extent of my cooking/food making went as far as boiling water for some pasta or anything that I could pop in the microwave and on special occasions preheating oven and throwing in the already made tollhouse cookie dough that you can buy almost anywhere. I really wasn't sure what I was going to do for this DIY project. There is a number of things that I haven't done or that is out of my comfort zone. I don't like taking chances and putting myself out there, because when do you that there is room to fail.
My entire life I was put into the positions of being judged. The first example of this is school, everything you do gets a grade. You are constantly being tested for perfection to get that A. Luckily, however, you have learned and practiced over and over again to the point where you know you will ace the test. The second example of this is through gymnastics. I was a competitive gymnast to the point where I was being flown all over the country for competitions and constantly under pressure to bring home medals. These routines that I was practicing and perfecting twenty-four hours a week became simple and easy. I got to the point where when I stood on the balance beam, I wasn't even a little bit scared of falling. Sadly, this DIY project had to be something out of your comfort zone, something that wouldn't be judged to perfection, thank god, but something that you had never done before. This project turned out to be a sticky situation.
The first process of this step was doing some research about Popsicle making. There are hundreds, literally hundreds, if not thousands, of different popsicles on the internet, cook books, and magazines. I began this project on Pinterest, searching and reading about different types. From there I visited multiple different websites including Tasty Recipes and Epicurious. These were my first couple of searches and research done: Cranberry Strawberry , margarita popsicles , and off YouTube fruit salad popsicles as well as Vegan popsicles. And lastly, I called my mother one of the ultimate best resources out there. My mother, I am guessing like pretty much all mothers, knows how to do everything, and if she doesn't know how to do something she knows the resources on how to find the solution. There were so many different types of recipes and different ways of preparation. And after hours of research I knew that I wanted to keep my popsicles simple and delicious. You can pretty much use any type of fruit combination in a Popsicle and since I love strawberries, they had to be in there. There are multiple different bases you could use from coconut water to making your own yogurt type base. I however hate when citrus fruit is mixed with dairy products, so it was a no brainer that I was going to be making my own lemonade for my base.
I found a recipe on Pinterest that took me to a website called "sweet and savory by shine" and followed her directions. The ingredients were as follows: 1/3 cup of sugar, 6 strawberries, 1 cup of lemon juice (4 to 6 lemons) and ½ water. To make the simple syrup you had to boil 1/3 cup of water in a small sauce pan and add the sugar in until completely dissolved. This was the first step and if there were judges, I totally would have gotten a ten. The step was cutting up the strawberries. At first I was very precise with eat cut, trying to make them all the same, but after the third strawberry, I thought it is just food and is going to be eaten anyway therefore precision of strawberry sizes doesn't matter. The next step was putting the strawberries in dixie cups spread out evenly and not making them too heavy. I filled each dixie up to about a fourth to a fifth of strawberries. Then I began cutting up the lemons, squeezing them, and pulling out the seeds into a huge pitcher. Because I watched numerous videos on how-to-make popsicles I learned a neat skill of rolling the lemon and pressing on it before you cut it and began to squeeze it, however, I also was on the phone with my mom and she brought up the same tip. This helps soften the lemon up and makes it easier to get the juice.
After the juice was made I poured it into the dixie cups filling them to the top and adding popsicle sticks into the center. Another tricked I learned, this time from my friend whose house I was making these popsicles at, is to help the popsicle sticks stay in the middle by using foil or some type of wrap to hold the sticks in place. This helps the sticks from moving and staying in the center. So I cut little square tin foil sheets to place over the dixie cups and once done I put them into the freezer to stay overnight. When I was all done I turned around to a messy kitchen, covered in sugar, water, strawberry and lemon juice, and a dog that wouldn't stop licking at the floor. In all the tutorials, videos, pictures, and more, the kitchen didn't end up being this dirty. Then I looked at myself and all the sprayed juice on me and knew I wasn't pristine and clean like the professionals online who can make popsicles without even the smallest mess. But then I remembered how practiced these people are, the first time they made popsicles they weren't videotaping themselves, and most of these people have been professionally trained. Whereas I did my learning through reading, pictures, and online videos and blogs. Through the VARK learning test my results showed that I was an aural and kinesthetic learner. This means I enjoy talking, asking questions, and listening to directions as well as being able to hands on learn and practice in order to understand something. I am sure that if I started making popsicles once a week, by the fourth week I would be an ultimate pro, able to make them in mere minutes without even the slightest mess. I also think that had there been a lecture on popsicle making where I could listen and ask questions, I would also have accomplished this task better.
My two concerns when beginning this project was that I would forget an ingredient or they would end up tasting gross, luckily neither of that happened. The directions that I felt most helpful were the video clips that showed exactly what the directions were talking about. Also simply the YouTube videos that went through the whole process of each step. By watching the process you were able to learn skills and see exactly what you have to do. I think that the authors created these resources in order to help visual and aural learners to understand. The written directions were for people who are read/write learners and even with those directions there were still some pictures, again for visual learners. The only type of learning that I had not gone to was a kinesthetic learning environment which would entail me going to one of those cooking/baking places where they have hands on learning classes. Having my mom and my friend as a resource was also helpful because I could ask them direct questions and hear their feedback immediately instead of having to spend a lot of time looking online for the exact answer for your question or when you get stuck. I learned that baking was a lot like learning a new gymnastics routine. You just have to follow the steps and the process like the girl in the YouTube video and before you know it you are done. So maybe my process wasn't the perfect ten, but this was only the first go-around.

Chapter 1 Blog
Bekim Sejdiu
Mr. Hosokawa (Business Tycoon)
Gen (Translator)
Roxane Coss (Opera Singer)
General Hector and Benjamin (Terrorists)
President Masuda
Vice President Ruben Iglesias
Setting: Possibly somewhere in South America
The story is focused on an older Japanese man, possibly a business tycoon. His name is Mr. Hosokawa and he has a distinct passion for opera music. So much so that he attended a party on his birthday filled with people he didn't know, to listen to renowned opera star Roxane Coss. The location his not stated. He had first heard her music when Mr. Hosokawa's daughter bought it for him. She seemed to have difficulty finding something that would please him, suggesting a complicated relationship between the two. Probably a result of Mr. Hosokawa being a business man. He has a couple flashbacks while at the party, one to when he was a child, listening to opera music for the first time and how it influenced him. How he takes such joy of being able to sit down and listen to a three hour track from beginning to end. Another flashback involved a translator he met during a Greek business situation, who reminded him of himself. Mr. Hosokawa seems to go through some sort of self-reflection through these flashbacks during the party.
The main plot continues and involves a terrorist group of Generals and their renegade children soldiers who want to capture the President of this nation which is speculated to be a Hispanic country. One of the Generals hurts the Vice President, Ruben Iglesias. Which backs up the location of the nation probably being Hispanic. President Masuda, ironically misses this elaborate kidnapping thanks to a television show he wanted to watch. Which reveals something else about this individual, that a Presidential figure would miss an important social gathering, for a tv show? This is somewhat foreseeable for an employee to make an excuse to call out of work for a sports game, but a President? The head and face of a nation? We are given some further clues about location, that it is a place that Roxane may have visited before when it was stated that the children smelled the same flowers in the local garden on her perfume. Which led to the thought that maybe she's in her home country, possibly European by her surname. However, that fact was challenged by her thought of the child being born in a different nation and having fun on Halloween instead.
Checking on Roxane's name of origin led to referencing President Masuda's name, which didn't sound Hispanic. In fact it is Japanese in origin, which would explain why one of the children thought that Mr. Hosokawa was the President. Although still no extra evidence as to why him versus the dozen other middle aged Asian men in the room. This led to the idea that perhaps these terrorists don't like the idea of a foreign individual controlling the nation? Not an uncommon idea amongst conservatives of certain nations. Although upon further research of South American nations and political corruption led to a different idea. That perhaps this President was corrupt? Helping illegal gangs with drug trafficking maybe. One President was found guilty of taking in profits of $6 million in illegal drug money. And that maybe these individuals were trying to free their nation. Although the use of children, and lack of care if the hostages died or not seems to show some sort of power play between two entities. Maybe the President broke a deal with these drug dealers, labelling them as terrorist outlaws. A minor reference to Presidential vs Vice Presidential height brings in the idea of how this president may be trying to mimic the appearance of power. To remain in control of a nation and continue corruption? Or maybe not.
I began researching incidents with a corrupt Presidents of Japanese descent in South America. One such individual came up, President Fujimori. He was the President of Peru from 1990 to 2000. He was charged with human rights violations involving the kidnapping of leftist guerrillas in the 90s. Fujimori is actually the first elected head of state has been extradited back to his home country, tried, and convicted of human rights violations. Also charged with giving out $15 million of the Peruvian treasury to a former intelligence officer. The reason why was not stated. During his term he had tried to combat the nation's extreme inflation, but it came at a heavy social cost. It is noted that he shut down congress and suspended the constitution. Many citizens viewed him as an authoritarian figure. The nation became less and less democratic and leaning more towards a strict dictatorship. This story could possibly be a reference to this real scenario. Maybe President Masuda (dictator) is dealing with insurgent guerillas in a South American nation who want to overthrow his regime and bring personal liberties back? The chapter ends with many open questions, leading to more interest about what this President has done to receive such attention, and what Mr. Hosokawa's connection to all of this is.

Definition of Foreshadowing
Foreshadowing is a literary device in which a writer gives an advance hint of what is to come later in the story.
Foreshadowing often appears at the beginning of a story or a chapter and helps the reader develop expectations about the coming events in a story. There are various ways of creating a foreshadowing. A writer may use dialogues of characters to hint at what may occur in future. In addition, any event or action in the story may throw a hint to the readers about future events or action. Even a title of a work or a chapter title can act as a clue that suggests what is going to happen. Foreshadowing in fiction creates an atmosphere of suspense in a story so that the readers are interested to know more.
Function of Foreshadowing
Generally, the function of foreshadowing is to build anticipation in the minds of readers about what might happen next and thus adding dramatic tension to a story. It is deliberately employed to create suspense in mystery novels, usually by giving false clues or "red herrings" to distract readers.
Moreover, foreshadowing can make extraordinary and bizarre events appear credible as the events are predicted beforehand, so that readers are mentally prepared for them.
Example of foreshadowing:
In John Steinbeck's novel "Of Mice and Men", George killing Candy's dog foreshadows Candy killing Lennie because Candy is identical to George and Lennie to the dog. Even the nature of the death of the dog was the same as Lennie's as both were shot in the back of the head. Candy tells George, "I ought to of shot that dog myself". He chooses to kill Lennie himself in order to save him from being killed by a stranger.
