Birds will often attack and drive away larger, predatory birds in order to protect their territory and young (you'll see crows going after much larger hawks, for example, and even smaller birds dive bombing and harassing until the threat has been driven away).
In my dream, two birds were flying overhead, back and forth between two trees. One was an enormous white gyrfalcon, and the other was a small snowy owl. Both were females. Each was defending her nest, though the owl was much more on the defensive side of the battle. I admired the tenacity and courage of the snowy owl, who was striking out with those sharp talons and an angry little whistle with every pass. The powerful gyrfalcon, however, was not being driven away – she was attacking back, and one of her near misses, had it hit its mark, would have ripped the owl apart. I was filled with apprehension.
Suddenly, they were buds. Pals. BFFs. WTF? In response to my unspoken question, the gyrfalcon said to me conversationally, "Oh, we're just arguing. It's all good."

City Fox
I am one of those concerned as we invade the natural environments of animals who then must try to adapt to their changing world. My condo in Fort Collins, Colorado is small and nestled in a low lying area away from the noise of traffic. I like that. Outside my door is a small holding pond where wildlife such as deer, raccoons, geese, ducks herons and foxes use the pond. One morning while on a walk I discovered this fox on his search for breakfast. I watched him going in and out of the reeds until he come up on this mound, stopped to scan the area, let me take three shots and then moved on.

Back when I was halfway through my exams, I would tell nikki that I'd take her out for walks as soon as I was done. Every single day– thats exactly what I told her when she'd start whining late in the afternoons.
Despite losing her for close to 2 weeks now, the old habits just don't die easily. Everytime I'm here at the computer I half expect to see her lounging at the door, peeking in like she usually does. Whenever we have the plank doors closed and there's a silhouette moving we just go,"GO BEHIND AND SLEEEEEEEP!" and then you'll see the silhouette moving back to where it came from. She used to loved laying at the base of our shoe rack doing nothing. Gazing at the sky I suppose.
In addition to that, every night without fail, I'd check on her a few times before I go to bed. At one point I reckon she got so pissed she'd just ignore us when we wished her goodnight and open her eyes and give us this cockstare when we got too noisy. LOL. I still do get up and walk to the kitchen before realising that there's nothing to check up on anymore.
In my haste to log off last night, i plucked the switch to the power way too soon. As a result, I have lost all of my bookmarks. ALL. EVERYTHING. Now I've got to recompile the whole lot from scratch again. Way to start the day eh?

If you've tuned in to Issa Rae's hit HBO sitcom "Insecure," you've no doubt criticized the characters' stunningly bad life choices, while simultaneously coveting their clothes.
For every one of the eponymous lead character's dating disasters and work blunders, there's a hip-hop inspired top or bohemian-bourgeois blazer you'd love to own. Meanwhile, her glass ceiling-cracking BFF, Molly, steals scenes in a dizzying array of tailored power suits and Fendi heels.

It all started when a high school friend of mine posted a music video on Facebook today.
How brave are you?
How brave am I?
I seriously think I am brave enough to start dancing in the middle of somewhere just because.
Really. I think I might just do it one day.
Maybe for Fragile X Awareness I will do it.
Maybe one day I will be brave enough to have everyone stare at me because I don't seem "normal" and see if I can help make even one person aware of Fragile X Syndrome.
Am I that brave?
I hope I would be.
My kids are.
We were at a mountain park this last weekend letting the kids play in a shallow stream alongside other children while we were watching, smiling, and taking pictures in the shade.
|Notice the Sean Connery James Bond towel... ya, we're cool like that.
I explained a little to her trying to keep my tongue in check and she continued to apologize with, "I'm so sorry, he just looks so normal."
Brother looked up at me and I just tousled his hair and said, "Ya, we all do, huh [Brother]?"
I think I was brave too, not to chew the lady out for being innocently stupid. I'm sure she didn't mean to be rude when she said he looks "normal."
Who decides what normal looks like anyway? I can tell you, it certainly wasn't the parents of special needs children...
So, I think Brother is pretty big on brave when it comes to facing it more and more as he gets older.
Sister, she faces brave straight in the eyes everyday she wakes up and stares and Autism and Fragile X both in the eyes and still plays with friends, laughs and has a sense of humor regardless of what her brain is trying to make her do.
That's big brave.
Baby is so brave that no matter how many times she is not understood by me, her dad, her siblings or anyone else, she will keep trying to communicate to you whether it takes pulling, crying, signing, and by dang, sometimes even talking!
For her, that's brave.
Marc and I, well, I have to say that there are some things we have faced the last while that I must say would qualify us as being in the BIG brave category.
Forgiveness, I must say, is one of the bravest things anyone can do here on this earth. It is heart wrenching. Especially when it has to do with your children. I can stay mad at people for doing hurtful things through mistakes, stupidity, or just flat out evil, but I can't teach my children love and kindness toward others if I don't feel it in my own heart.
Bravery comes from the heart.
Bravery is there because we are passionate enough about something that we are willing to die for it.
We love something enough to fight for it.
Not destroy ourselves over it. There is a big difference.
To be destroyed for a cause and to be brave for a cause are two different things.
I want to be brave.
I want to be able to forgive.
I want my children to see that I can forgive.
I want them to see that I have love in my heart.
I want my brave to be big enough for love to over come.
Go out and show how big your brave is!
Oh, and Happy 4th of July! My sidewalk chalk art had double meaning today!

Editorials Local News 26 killed in U.S. mass shooting
26 killed in U.S. mass shooting
1 0 0 0
Write Review
At least 26 people were killed and 20 wounded when a gunman opened fire at a church gathering on Sunday morning, in south Texas.
The police said the victims were between the ages of 5 and 72, but according to aWashington Post report one of them could be a one-year-old child. Between 12 and 14 of the victims were children.
No motive identified
Police have identified the gunman as Devin Patrick Kelley, 26, a former member of the U.S. Air Force, who was also killed in the incident. Police have not identified any motive for the shooting yet.
Sutherland Springs had a population of fewer than 700 people — nearly 50 of them now dead or injured.
Bryan Holcombe, the associate pastor of the First Baptist Church who was standing in for the pastor, and seven other members of this family spanning three generations, were killed.
The attacker lived in New Braunfels, about 35 miles north of Sutherland Springs. He spent a year in military prison for assaulting his wife and child and was reduced in rank and released from the Air Force with a bad-conduct discharge in 2014.
Reacting to the incident, President Donald Trump, who was in Japan, said it was the act of "a very deranged individual," who had "a lot of problems for a long period of time."

Just Erotic Romance Reviews review of Nikki London's "Southern Comfort"
"The format of the assistant falling for the boss has been written often, yet with Southern Comfort Ms. London created characters and a plot that works very well. Kris and Jason have just the right amount of chemistry and affection for each other that the 'weekend trip' doesn't come across as contrived. Overall I thought Southern Comfort was a cute story to read when you need a break from raunchy sex."
Read the entire review.

Several years ago my grandsons joined their father in forming a band called The Bionic Monks. Recently they released their new CD and although I'm not a great fan of this particular genre of music I have to admire the tenacity with which they've stuck with the program. They throw everything they've got into their stage performances and are extremely talented musicians. They play mostly in Indiana but do travel up to Chicago occasionally for some of their shows.
I just thought I'd give them a little plug here!
If you are into Rock/Metal/Punk music I hope you'll give them a whirl and check out their website. Even if you're not, I can recommend their cover version of Pink Floyd's 'Wish You Were Here.'

Milling it over
rolling over your tongue
Passing your lips
stinging at its release
Just a set of sounds
strung together.
Separately mere noise
just two lonely syllables.
But inside a courtship
dancing with one another
separate no longer
they take their vows.
Realisation hits
clasping your hand
to cover that escape
a futile attempt
For it cannot be unspoken
they are together now,
and cannot be torn apart
Their marriage. Your truth.

Juetta, also known as Judith was born in 982 to Conan, I of Brittany ("lying in the northwest corner of France, is one of the great historic provinces of France, it is the most Atlantic of France's regions" 1) and Ermengarde-Gerbaga of Anjou ("Anjou was practically identical with the diocese of Angers, bound on the north by Maine, on the east by Touraine, on the south by Poitou (Poitiers) and the Mauges, and the west by the countship of Nantes or the duchy of Brittany" 2). She and her brother were both married off to siblings from Normandy, she wed Richard, II Duke of Normandy in 1000 whom she had six children with. She died August 28, 1017 and was buried at the Abbey of Bernay, which she had founded in 1013.
The building of the abbey was entrusted to "Guillaume de Volpiano († 1028), reformer of the monastery of Fécamp to where he had been called in 1001. The works were completed by the first abbot, Vital de Creully (named around 1060, † 1082), to whom this achievement would merit the considerable privilege of becoming the Abbot of Westminster in 1076." 3

After Monday's run, I was feeling discouraged. After today's run, I feel exhilarated! I scaled back my goals a bit and decided to start on week 3 of the Couch to 5K plan, which consists of run 90 seconds, walk 90 seconds, run 3 minutes, walk 3 minutes, repeat. And I have to say, it was a huge success!
Even though I whined about the nature trail in my last post, I decided to go for it again. I just really liked the solitude - I guess that's how much I am NOT a people person. I ran the whole 1 mile trail and back on the C25K routine. And I did it in less than 25 minutes, which puts me at about a 12:15 pace! I am so happy about that, because I never thought I would be that fast. That included my walk breaks, so I think I could do 10 minute miles without the breaks. That may not sound like much, but it's astounding to me!
I'm also excited because today I found a goal race! It's perfect - in February, so it's far away enough away that I have time to train but I am going to have to train CONSISTENTLY until then to actually be able to run it, and it's the Disney Princess Half Marathon! I mean, how much more perfect could it get? Disney World, princesses... I also found an 18-week training program that starts with a long run of 3 miles, which will be perfect to start after I finish the C25K program. I am so excited about it!
In fact, I'm so excited because of the race and the success of my run today, I might even run again tomorrow! :)

I'll share a few glimpses of our first year together...
7 comments:
Bella thanks you all for the good wishes! She has definitely earned her place in my home and in my heart. We plan on 'growing old' together...ReplyDelete
Terry ~ I was so glad to hear from you! I had just assumed you wouldn't be able to help with shearing this week, since you had taken off work to help Last week. (shearer canceled at the last minute). I'll get in touch with you and update you on time. Thank You!!
Another beautiful post. Lil celebrated her 9th birthday while Simon was home. Party and all. What an absolute delight our little furry friends bring our hearts. God Bless you and BellaReplyDelete
What a lovely idea lining up her first year like that.ReplyDelete
She's an absolute stunner. Good job there's an ocean between her and Fox, he does like a pretty face (but the puppies WOULD be stunning ;o)
Fox will be two in a few weeks, maybe I should get his baby photos out too.
Thanks for sharing.

Daniel, my older brother joined SWAPO, an organization that fought against South Africa Apartheid government for the independence of Namibia, when I was little. Like many Namibians who fled the country during the South African Apartheid, he too did. He went and stayed gone in exile for over 9 years without ever hearing a word from him, for security and safety reasons for our family.
So I grew up with my mom and my two young brothers, Sakeus and Thomas, and my baby sister, Libertine, alone at our rural farm. My three older sisters, Maria, Jenny and Sippora; Maria was married and the other two, Sippora was in high school away from home, and Jenny was working in Oshakati to support us. My dad lived in Oshakati all his life and never provided us with any financial support.
Towards the end of 1989 when all exiled people returned to Namibia, we were shocked that Daniel also returned, well and healthy. All those years he was gone, he was a soldier for the SWAPO military wing, the PLAN. I was at school in the US when he returned and when I went back to Namibia, it was during the election campaign, and I got busy going around with SWAPO President Sam Nujoma helping with the election and only went to Oshakati once where Daniel was also volunteering at the SWAPO office helping with the election.
I walked in to the SWAPO office and asked the gentleman who was at the reception desk that I came to see Daniel and the guy asked me who I was and I told him my name and that I was Daniel's young brother. He told me to wait and he went back to call Daniel.
I was nervous because I haven't seen my brother since I was a kid. And then the guy came back from the back room and asked me to come in to the back office. He asked me to sit down on the couch in the living room, and he sat next to me and he said he was Daniel. We both didn't know what to do. We hugged each other and cried and then talked. We talked for about 15 minutes and then I had to leave because everyone was waiting for me, so I had to go. We promised each other to meet after the election.
So I left happy and was still dreaming that my brother whom I haven't seen in years was alive and well. And after the independence in March 1990, I went to Oshakati from Windhoek to see him. I went to his flat (apartment) and we were so happy to see each other again. I was dressed in a black sport suit but without a shirt or anything under, and when he looked at me he thought I looked so cool. He also put on similar suit but a brown one, and also without a shirt under.
We took a walk, strolling down the street, shirtless but with jackets only, we looked so cool, and just talked. That was the best day of my life ever, walking and talking with my older brother. I grew up alone looking up to no body but my mom and suddenly there I was, walking with my brother for the first time in my life and after so many years. We looked so cool together.
My brother was the coolest and most good looking guy ever. He was tall and slender, and light skin. He looked so cool and I was so happy that I was no longer alone as the head of our little family. Finally I was going to answer to someone else other than my mom who was then and is still my best friend and hero. Finally I had a man in my life that I could proudly look forward to spending time with, learn from him and just to feel safe again, just to have a male role model in my life.
We went to a fish and chips sandwich place and we ordered some food. He asked me what I wanted to drink. For the first time my brother was asking me what I wanted to drink. Then I told him that I would have a Fanta and he asked to have the same.
Then we stood there arguing who to pay for the food. I was telling him that I was paying because I was from Windhoek, and he was saying he would pay, and we stood there for a few minutes looking at each other laughing and arguing who should pay, and he said, look kid, I'm the older so I will pay. So he paid for the food and we sat down and ate and were just talking about the family related things. I finally had a male figure to talk to him about our family affair.
I was so happy, it felt like heaven, it felt so surreal that I was sitting there and eating a meal with my older brother. Then he told me that he was engaged and also had a little 3 year old daughter, Maria, named after our older sister. He asked me that one day when I get some time that I should come and go with him to meet his daughter and his fiancé.
Then we left to the bus stop where I was gonna get on the bus to go back to Windhoek as I had to go to work the next day. At the bus stop, he hugged me tight and told me that he was very proud of me and that he loves me. For the first time ever, someone else, and it was my brother telling me that he was proud of me and that he loves me. I got on the bus and he came to the window of the bus and held my hand and telling me that he will see me again soon.
As the bus was leaving, my brother stood there waving at me until I couldn't see him any more. So I left. Long story short, a few months later, I was walking on the street in a daze, for two long weeks I was in a dark cloud, I didn't eat I didn't sleep, my uncle Joe would ask me what was wrong and I told him I didn't know.
But on that cloudy but sunny day, I took a walk and as I was walking down the street, a childhood friend saw me and walked up to me and said, Simon, what are you doing here, haven't you heard? And I said heard what? On the radio, your brother Daniel died in a car accident in Caprivi. Then the whole world came crumbling down on me right then and at that moment I felt no sense of anything.
I got up, as I had just collapses to the ground, went home, packed up my stuff and went home to my mom. At my mom, she was devastated, I didn't shed a tear as I didn't want my mom to feel even worse if she sees me crying. I became a man, went to the mortuary, took his body, arranged for my brothers funeral and buried him.
Two weeks later in Windhoek, something just came over me. It hit me so hard, the death of my brother, and I cried for two long weeks, mourning the death of my brother. And then I got up, went to my mom and asked her how to go find my brother's daughter.
Then I went looking for her and found her mother about 200 miles away far in the north of Namibia near Angola. Then her mom and I talked and I took the little 3 year old girl and took her with me to Windhoek and raised her as my daughter. I was just 19 years old. My life as a young man ended and I became a father.
I was working as a sound engineer for NBC so money was not a problem. I bought my first 3 bedroom house before I turned 21 so I could better raise my daughter, Maria. She's now 24 years old and very beautiful and smart. If there's anything I have been successful at in my life, it's raising and taking care of my daughter, Maria. I have been her mother and father, and I am so proud of her, so much, and if my brother would come back and see her, he would be so proud of her, and hopefully he would appreciate me more.
My brother Daniel, died while he was serving as a Paramilitary Police for the newly formed Namibia Defense Force. Him and two other died in a military vehicle in a head on collision in Katima, Caprivi in 1990, just a few months after Namibia's Independence from South Africa.
He spent over 9 years fighting the bush war against the Apartheid South African Powerful Forces and survived, unharmed, a bit injured but survived and was healthy just to come and die in a silly head on collision.
In 2002, my young half brother Absalom, whom I hadn't seen since 1984, but became close by emailing each other, I had registered him to come to the US and attend college at Central State University in Wilberforce, Ohio was driving with friends from Windhoek to Oshakati.
Right after they passed Otjiwarongo, their car had an accident, it rolled over and he was sitting in the back seat, unfortunately without a seat belt. He was thrown out of the car and went throw the windshield and got cut by the wires that made up the side fence, he died a few hours later.
Yes, redesigning and rebuilding Namibia's express highways is very personal, sort of a revenge to help make the roads in Namibia better so other people don't lose their lives or get injured as my brothers did.
It can never be more personal than this and I am taking it head on, with the help of my friends, Robbie and Robert, in the US, and the best team in the world, in Namibia led by Peter and Joseph, and in South Africa, Japan, and a pool of incredible partners and investors across the globe.

Welcome to MIZ-303, the Missouri-based blog on all things Colorado, Missouri sports. Talk about your niche audiences, eh?
Before I dive into my first post on the heartbreaking news that Carmelo Anthony will indeed depart Denver permanently sooner than later, a bit of background on myself:
I hail from Denver, Colorado, born and raised. I became an avid sports fan for reasons I don't fully understand. My dad never cared much about sports, nor did my childhood friends or any other manifested bodies of developmental influence.
Perhaps the Denver Broncos winning their first Super Bowl on my ninth birthday has something to do with it. Maybe my family's history of divorce and frequently changing religious preferences had me subconsciously seeking some sort of refuge. But hey, let's not get into that. This is a sports blog afterall.

The Summit/New Providence leg of the Passaic River Park is very close to where I live, and it's a lovely quiet place to hike when I don't feel like driving 20 minutes to some big overhyped state park.
Trail maintenance is performed irregularly by volunteers. The section of the trail near me has always been a little neglected, so I periodically go out there with hedge clippers and work gloves, and clean up the trail so it's nice and hikeable.
Today was my first time out there since Sandy.
Large swaths of the trail are completely obliterated.
Giant 100-foot trees snapped in half—like twigs—then fell on other 100-foot trees, and brought down huge patches of the forest all in one fell swoop. Now there are huge piles of logs blocking the trails, and there's no way to climb over them, or under them, or around them.
Normally, if the trail is blocked by a tree that I can't move, I'd simply move the trail around the obstacle… but obstacles of this magnitude require a complete restructuring of the trail, which is a pretty ambitious project. And I didn't see any obvious alternative routes while I was out there.
This goes beyond my ability to clean up.
Tho' maybe if I had a chainsaw…

So of course, if it's an occasion where food is involved, and let's be honest, even when it's not, you'll be sure to find me indulging myself in some restaurant committing the one of the seven deadly sins: gluttony. Naturally, this Valentine's Day was the perfect day for midweek sin committing so a few friends and I headed over to Bazaar in Chueca.
Bazaar has a very bougie, chueca-esque vibe to it and looks like one of those gourmet restaurants where the food is practically invisible and the bill afterwards is like a slap to your face. But, I've been told that the food is pretty good and that it's pretty cheap so I couldn't resist the opportunity to treat myself to a chic Valentine's Day dinner. The restaurant has two floors, where the upper floor is for eaters to have a nice view and the lower floor is for street passerby's to have a nice view of the diners. Just kidding, I'm not sure why there is a small sliver of window for the bottom floor, probably to let light in, but it's a really cool look and it definitely has a magnetic affect on me where I can't help but stare at what's below every time I pass by. Inside the restaurant, there are shelves filled with bottles of sauce and packages of pasta and other random assortment of items that are neatly displayed in a supermarket fashion but it works. It gives the restaurant something to look at and not just plain white walls.
The menu is a mix of french, asian, and italian but they claim to have a "Mediterranean based cuisine" so I don't know if they're confused or if I'm confused, but regardless it's confusing; as proved by my friends ordering "lasagna" which turned out to be a stack of meat... I'll just blame it on being lost in translation.... Of course, the food overall was good so it's not to say that the confusing nature is a reflection on the quality nor the taste of the food.
Okay, I'm not going to lie, the bread had to be my favorite part of dinner. It was served steaming hot and perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and pillowy on the inside. Oh so beautiful bread, will you be my Valentine?
And of course, what's a dinner without summa dat Ribera?
I couldn't decide between two plates so my friend and I decided to split two dishes... and two desserts. And boy, did we do a number on these bad boys. Let's just say we made washing dishes very easy for the restaurant staff.
Milhojas de magret de pato y foie, 9.85 EUR
Puff pastry with duck breast and liver topped with sweet gravy. I'm not exaggerating when I say we inhaled it; partially due to the fact that we were starving but mainly because it just tasted really damn good. I always like to order something that I know I can't make at home so for under 10 EUR, it was definitely worth it. The duck wasn't too game-y (although I like the taste of game-y meat) and its chewy yet tender consistency complemented the flaky milhojas; and of course the sauce - a simple yet crucial ingredient to the dish.
Unfortunately, I was too mesmerized by the deliciousness of the next dish we ordered that I completely forgot to take a picture. We ordered the Salmon al laurel y perifollo, 8.95 EUR. No idea what perifollo meant so my friend looked it up and told me it was "chervil"... what?! Wikipedia tells me that it's some herb related to parsley, just so you know for future reference if someone ever asks you a question about chervil at a cocktail party.... anyway, back to the food. Just a simple salmon dish with boiled potatoes and grilled veggies. The salmon was so tender it literally melted in my mouth. Ugh, I'm almost disgusted (in a good way..?) by how good it was. Definitely going to go back for round 2 when I get my salmon cravings. Especially because a minuscule piece of salmon here is ridiculously expensive even at the grocery stores. At least at Bazaar I can pretend I'm a classy beezy.
Gratin de frutas de temporada con crema de mascarpone y vainilla, > 5 EUR
This was my favorite of the two desserts we shared because well, first of all it's served in a martini glass and also because they torched the top of the dessert so it was kind of like a creme brulee- my personal favorite dessert because it's such a guilty pleasure to crack the top with my spoon. And the fruit added a nice bit of bite instead of just having a creme martini... which doesn't sound half bad.. does it?
Lasagna de queso fresco con crocanti y coulis de frutas, > 4 EUR
Meh, next time I will skip out on the cheese lasagna. It wasn't anything special and didn't taste good enough for me to want to order it again.
Another friend ordered this dessert and I was able to try a little bit of it. I don't know what this is called but it's an upside down cheesecake with kiwi and strawberry fruit coulis and it was so good. Normally, cheesecake outside of the U.S. is an awkward texture. Usually more bread-y than cheese-y and although this cheesecake had a similar texture to flan, it was still cheesecake-y enough for me and the best part was the kiwi sauce. YUM
I only posted on the food that I personally ate, but the others ordered different dishes and overall I would say the food was at least decent. It's also nice because no dish is over 10 EUR. Some of the dishes are small portions (like our duck dish) but others are decently sized. Also, in terms of size, I'm speaking with an American mentality where in my mind, every dish should be the size of Texas. I really enjoyed the ambiance at Bazaar; lot's of couples and painfully handsome gay men. As we were finishing up our dinner, a table next to us ordered some kind of salad that looked like a work of art while looking deeeelicious at the same time and you know what that means... I have got to go back.

I ran across this and thought it was awesome. Viactiv, the multivitamin for women, is giving away free music downloads from up and coming female singers. Every time you download a song, they will donate 10 cents to Dress for Success.
Dress for Success is a non-profit organization that help women find a job and give them a suit for their interview. Once they have a have, they are able to receive another free suit or separates for their new job. How cool is that???
This is a great opportunity to help moms and women better their situation all for downloading free music! You can't beat that! Now while I must admit their selection of artists are what I normally listen to, I did find Kim Emerson to be an awesome singer! Check out and download her song So Excited, while you're there.

52 Christians and security personel were killed in Iraq over the weekend. Half a million Christians have fled the country, gunmen have run amok in churches in Egypt and Algeria, Christians have been burned alive in Pakistan, attacked in India, Malaysia and Indonesia and persecuted in Saudi Arabia..the list goes on and on - and yet what we frequently hear about is - 'The War On Islam'.
The 'War on Islam' theory is mostly based on the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, and the ongoing debate over burkas and veils. It is utterly flawed.
The rights and wrongs of the Afghan and Iraq wars are not the point here, the question is did the 'West', acting as a neo crusader, invade those countries because they have majority Muslim populations. The answer is no. You can argue oil, strategy, liberal interventionism, personal reasons etc, but there is nothing to suggest that if those countries had populations which worshipped blue cheese, the Americans and British would have acted any differently. As for the debate over veils, these are narrow points to do with security, an open society and pluralism. What is true is that in the West there is freedom of worship, Muslims are not 'ethnically cleansed' from cities, and gunmen do not run amok in Mosques or burn Muslims alive.
Now back to the other war. Note that those who posit that there is a war on Islam say that entire peoples, countries, indeed cultures are attacking them. It is important to keep in mind that the war on Christianity is not perpetrated by Islam, nor Muslims, nor a culture. It is perpetrated by radical islamists some of whom propagate the ideas which lead to violence, and some who carry out the violence. They are a distinct minority among hundreds of millions of peaceful people.
Iraq is the best example, although here there are complicating factors. Some of the ethnic cleansing of Christians in Iraq is carried out by criminals using Islam as a flag of convenience to cover the naked shame of their gangsterism. They force Christians to leave unless they pay large 'fines' to continue their religious beliefs. But many of the more than 2,000 Christians murdered in targeted attacks in Iraq since 2003 were killed by islamists who object to Christians because of their beliefs.
This weekend the first person to die in the Baghdad church was the priest who was singled out and murdered. Al Queda In Iraq posted a statement calling the church a 'dirty den of idolatry'.
During one of the attacks on an ex pat compound in Saudi Arabia Al Queda men singled out Christian and Hindu 'dogs' before shooting them but spared Muslims. The latter incident is very telling. If they had found any Jews in the compound, for them, that would have been the bloody icing on the murderous cake. One thing the western media has failed to convoy to the public is that AQ isn't just against the 'western foreign policy' it is against everyone who isn't a Muslim.
Add to these attacks the lack of religous freedoms in many countries, and you see Christians are suffering across the world. This takes many forms. In Saudi Arabia a Christian is not supposed to worship anywhere, although usually a blind eye is taken for ceremonies held in private houses. If you fly on some airlines to and from the Middle East and the film you are watching features a cross, the cross is blurred out as it is deemed to be offensive to Muslim eyes. It is not widely known, but Christians, indeed all non Muslims are forbidden from entering the city of Mecca on the grounds that the Koran (9.28) says they are unclean.
The latter examples are given merely to show the depth of paranoia in some areas. In themselves they are silly, inconvenient, or downright offensive, but you can suffer them and still live your life. Where they connect to the murderers is that they fuel the idea of Christians as inferior, almost non people, and that in turn leads the radical Islamists to don suicide belts, enter a church, surround themselves with Christians, and when the rescuers arrive, to detonate the explosives and kill as many Christian women and children as possible.

Switching Through Mercury Deposits
Described is a switch which maintains a constant contact resistance.
As shown in Fig. 1C, the rotary type selector switch includes a selector knob attached to a main shaft. A stationary doughnut-shaped outer drum with mercury deposits (Fig. 1A) is positioned symmetrical to the main shaft. An inner rotating drum (Fig. 1B), having a plurality of coils or circuits to be switched, is positioned internal to the outer drum and symmetrical to the main shaft.
Each circuit of the inner drum is associated with a pair of contacts positioned on the periphery of the rotating inner drum. Signal disk or slip rings are used for externally coupling to the contacts of the inner drum. By rotating the selector knob, different pairs of contacts on the inner drum come in contact with the mercury deposit at the bottom, i.e., the lower portion, of the outer drum, thereby effectuating electrical conductivity.

This candle is my favorite! I got it as a housewarming gift, and now it is my go to gift for everyone else!
I was gifted a L'Occitane Lavender candle many years ago that I LOVED! I used it in the bath. It was the perfect strength of lavender without being overpowering. I am sad to say this new one has almost no scent at all .I was hoping that once lit it would improve, but I didn't find much difference. There is a very faint lavender scent.
The lavender scented candle is very pleasant and not too strong at all. The lavender scent is warm but a little too subtle. I would really like the lavender to be more prominent. The candle itself has a long burn life and when it's done, the container can be re-purposed. You can put a tealight and some rocks inside and have a nice decorative candle.

I'm on a plane and we are landing in Portland soon. We've started to descend from the calmer layer of air and through slightly rougher air. I'm listening to music and feeling the movement of the plane underneath me. I'm struck with the notion of acceleration and how a body in rest or motion will stay in such unless acted upon by another force. Acceleration in physics is not only speeding up, but could also mean showing down, it is the change of velocity and has a positive or negative direction. What in our lives bring about acceleration? And this is just changes in velocity. What about change in direction? What gravity affects the path of our light? What strange attractors are there? In classical physics it is straightforward to predict the path of one particle in a box. Add two and it gets difficult. However, when there are 3 particles in a box it becomes extraordinarily difficult to predict the path of any one of them due to the influence of the other two.
Our lives have fears and hopes. That is two particles to predict right there. Add the fears and hopes of another person and it turns to four. Add our fears and hopes for each other and it is now eight. The non linear equation at work in the path of the heart, to the impatient, seem but straightforward. Yet the opposite is quite true, we are compounding factors of dynamic feedback. It is difficult in its simplest form to predict what a human being might do. The best we can do is predict in varying degrees of confidence, and that is in matters of simple manipulation. In love, we can tell with certainty what will occur, until our certainty reaches near fullness, and then chaos occurs.
Does it make sense to think of our fears and hopes as particles to track? Or as strange attractors? I think, for this moment, I'll think of them as particles. Each hope/fear is a living particle gliding across the universe of your mind. It has its own energy and is acted upon something else, a strange attractor (another person, an event). We are complex webs of particles, flying through tiny infinity of space, acting upon other complex webs of particles. We are dynamic universes unto ourselves.
The stoics maintained there to be a Logos in the universe. All things follow this, they cannot help it, it is the logic and reason behind all things in the Universe. It is the "if and then" behind the Ethics of Spinoza. The good Stoic is to live in harmony with the Logos. It is useless and a source of pain to try and change the nature of the universe. So we attempt to understand it and predict it. And yet, recalling above, there is the uncertainty of the prediction of more than 3 particles… our minds attempt to predict the order underlying our lives and in doing so we infuse it with chaos. The more we seek it, the more it eludes is. The question of whether there is chaos outside of what we bring to it is a deep question that greater minds than I will have to tackle.
We are animals. Watch animals sometime and you'll see patterns. We can predict pretty well the patterns of animals, their behavior, and so forth. Without fancy psychology labs we've domesticated animals and trained them, bred them, and altered them. Yet even in the worlds of animals, their own attractions to pleasure and aversions to pain, the flight/flight/freeze/fuck response in their systems, there are the beginnings of low order chaos. We approach certainty, but cannot fully capture it. Humans are animals, but we have this mind gripping feedback loop of self consciousness. Whether or not we live our lives mindfully at Walden Pond, in a monastery in Tibet, or we vege out on the couch in front of infomercials, there are greater/lesser periods/bursts/aeons of consciousness in our lives.
Yesterday, Thanksgiving, I awoke in a deep depression. I awoke with a full certainty, a deep feeling, that I was a loser, a waste, immaterial. It was a new sensation for me. I struggle with issues, but I can't recall waking like this. In bed I looked upon my life, my failed relationships, one after another, that for a person who supposedly has many friends I've been visited no more than five times in the past ten years, less than ten times (and I'm being generous) since 1996. I looked at my path to obtaining my degree, my inability to get into grad school, my crippling debt, my health and fitness levels, my activities, and more. Lying in bed I could come up with no redeeming qualities. I sunk deeper into depression. It took me several hours to rouse myself out of bed. Most of this was due to the depression that I was in, the alienating sense of loneliness, the lack of motivation, but some of it was my own curiosity in investigating my state of spirit. As low as as I was, I was interested in what made sense to me, what would help rouse me. Borrowing from the above notion of acceleration, I was still and needed some method of jump starting.
Fighter aircraft have powerful engines that propel them through the air. Yet these engines are themselves unable to start themselves without help. An APU, auxiliary power unit, is rolled out to the aircraft. It is essentially a large hair dryer on wheels and it forces enough air into a valve of the engine to get it moving slightly. The pilot can then turn the engines one and because they are spinning slightly they are able to build up speed. The APU is disconnected and rolled out of the way. If it is a naval air craft, which operate with two engines for redundancy) the air from one engine is channeled over to the other in order to get it moving.
In bed I had a dream. I dreamt there was a pickup truck driving slowly down the road, walking speed. I was walking along with it and opened the passenger door to get inside. The truck sped off with me hanging half out of it. It was dangerous and I became quite angry with the driver for intentionally endangering my life. I looked over to the driver to see a robot driving the car. It wasn't a fancy android. It wasn't a smart robot. It was just a robot without any feeling and connection to life forms. In the dream I instantly relaxed and accepted the predicament and worked to get myself into the speeding truck.
I didn't call any friends during Thanksgiving because I did not want to be a drain on anyone's holiday. People were celebrating dinners and being festive. The last thing I wanted was to call someone and be needy on such a festive day. It could wait. Friends are the APU and without an APU I was pretty useless all day. My apartment was a mess and I just binged on tv.
I'm not sure what insights I got from this. I'm still heartbroken on the breakup. On my return home and the slowing down of daily schedule from what I've been doing the past month, the emotions have been rolling out of me. My heart changes with every shifting of the breeze. One moment I am angry, feeling like I've been hoodwinked, led along a path and ambushed. Then I feel sad and defeated, after trying to be as vulnerable and honest as I could with someone, to be cast away as unfulfilling and incapable of satisfying and undependable. This part haunts me. I can't help but accept this indictment of me. It is what fueled my depression yesterday as I asked, 'what have I to offer?' over and over. Still, rarely… much too rare, I look at this as sacrifice for learning. I know there are people out there hurting and who could use a way out/through their pain. I look at this moment and, very briefly, I give thanks for this loneliness and hurt so that I might learn from this and perhaps offer someone else comfort. But it is a shooting star in the night, over quickly.
And so it is that I am trying new thoughts, new ideas, trying to find a way to start my engine again. I went through the motions of dating again, filling out Tinder and Bumble, and got several hits. But truth is I don't want to go out with anyone. My connection with her was, I thought, incredible, deep, honest, rare. And still in the end she saw something in me and left. Or she was not ready for me, as I've told by too many women over the years, and she left. It is hard to lean into this again. How can I trust my feelings, with the expectation that this too will end in a matter of weeks? Why continue to subject myself to this? This hurts.
I am reminded of Sisyphus and it occurs to me that this is my rock. How might I become happy in this perpetual opening to another?
What does Fate have in store for me? What did the dream of the robot in the truck mean for me? Am I to continue this path? How might I do so and not lose my mind? How many times must I dip myself into these dark, languid waters? My relationship with T was a toxic one. She was highly manipulative and corrosive and ate away me. Separating myself from her was the first step and over time I gradually grew back to my old self. But this last one with B, I'm not sure how to handle this one yet. She wasn't manipulative or toxic or lying. She was amazing. She was my Lagertha. The end was sudden, out of nowhere, and final. It is hard to listen to friends that try to comfort me with "you're great". They've not seen all that I've show to B. She's seen deeper into me and upon doing so suddenly cut me out.
I should stop writing. This isn't helping. I can feel the blackness descending upon me again.

Almost one of every six foster children on mood-altering drugs in Florida is being given the medications without the court order or parental consent mandated by law, according to a study released Thursday by the state Department of Children & Families.
DCF Secretary George Sheldon acknowledged there was "no rational basis" for 433 foster children in Florida being administered the psychotropic drugs without the required permission, as the study found. The agency is working so that by next week the children have parental consent to take the drugs or are scheduled to go before a judge for a court order, Sheldon said.
The study is more fallout from last month's suicide of 7-year-old Gabriel Myers. The boy hanged himself April 16 with a shower hose in the bathroom of his Margate foster home.
At the time of his death, he had been prescribed two psychotropic drugs - Symbyax and Vyvanse - that had not been approved by either his parents or a judge.
In Broward County, the DCF study found that only seven of the 212 foster children on psychotropic drugs - 3 percent of the total - did not have the required approval.
In Palm Beach County, the results at first seemed much more eye-popping: Of a total of 149 foster children on mood-altering drugs, 41- or 28 percent - did not have the necessary consent.
But the nonprofit agency that manages the county's foster care system reported that there were only eight children taking medication without the proper consent.
The other 33 had the proper approval, but their data files were incomplete, said Judith Warren, chief executive officer of Child and Family Connections.

Outside My Window: We've had a somewhat of a cool down and by that I mean it wasn't a blistering 110 but only a hundred. The night air is even quite pleasant and non stifling. It's been a roller coaster of stress with the fires everywhere but we're good.
I Am Hearing: Pre season football being blasted from the computer. We still don't have cable so haven't gotten to watch any Olympic coverage. I know it's a shame. I think I've convinced the hubs we need cable back for football of course 😉
I Am Thinking: Im back into swing of classes and am really looking forward to my Portfolio/Businesses practices class and Product Design Packaging. Fun Stuff! The Portfolio class is really going to be helpful. I'm still reeling that I'm into the last year and need to really amp my brain that Im really going to be doing a full mind shift of doing this and not "my comfort zone zone" job. I admit Im a little skeered.
I Am Hoping: To get my car back soonish. I really thought I'd have an update by Friday but nothing. Im also hoping for cooler temps. A girl can hope.
Random Thoughts: I think I finally have 50 Shades out of my system. I finished the second book (again) and I'm good now until of course the movie. The 3rd Book is great but the first two are best just so you know. We can all rest assured that Jeanie will not speak it's name again atleast for awhile.
Plans For The Week: Soccer camp starts this week and I'm so grateful again that the youngest decided on soccer this fall. The poor football boys have started practice and in this dreadful heat it's gotta be worse than the last two seasons combined. I admit I smiled in relief as I drove by.
Picture Thoughts: Yes I took a pic or two nothing crazy amazing (I know) I must pause now for a moment of silence for my beloved Sony. I think she has finally gone to that amazing photography studio in the sky. She was holding on by a thread when I somehow broke the battery lid. The battery held precariously by a small plastic place holder and that now no longer keeps the battery in place enough to keep it powered. 😦 It's really tricky to hold the battery tightly enough to power and shoot a picture. I now must reaquaint with the Nikon, and although she takes great pictures she's very persnickety and you have to hold your tongue just right. It's ok I need to put my big girl pants on and really learn and understand her ways better. I'm a professional after all.
Ok I lied, Im just not ready to go public again with the photos …gah
