Hey friends! I am appealing to your gracious and kind hearts to hear out the story of a former classmate, a friend, Iggy Villanueva. Please, please, take time to read the story and please help in anyway you can. You may repost this in your blogs, or add this facebook account http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=home#/group.php?gid=120983525436&ref=nf, or check this page out http://iggyvillanueva.wordpress.com/ . Spread the word, spread the love.
Ian Gabriel Villanueva or "Iggy" as we call him is a 2nd Year student of College of St. Benilde and a graduate of University of St. La Salle - Integrated School, Bacolod, batch 2007. He was my classmate from grade 5 up until 4th year high school and though we are not the best of friends he is one of those persons who make someone feel at ease even if you are not that close with each other.
This is Iggy spending his 20th birthday at the hospital with some friends last Jan. 14, 2009
Iggy's Story; a letter from his mom
20 January 2009
I am so embarrassed to do this yet, I am humbling myself to ask…please read on…
January 6, 2009 was the worst day of my family's life…our eldest son, IAN GABRIEL PICART VILLANUEVA, was initially diagnosed to have ACUTE MYELOGENEOUS LEUKEMIA. It is already the 20th of January, and after a 2nd and even a 3rd opinion from different doctors, the diagnosis, sadly is still the same: ACUTE MYELOGENEOUS LEUKEMIA. To aggravate things even, he even has pneumonia. Thus, chemotherapy cannot start just yet. Untreated, he just has 4 months to live…
Treatment plan for Iggy includes at least 3 rounds of chemotherapy and bone marrow transplant! To date, we have already moved from 3 hospitals. Currently we are at National Kidney & Transplant Institute to save on cost.
Though we may belong to a middle income family, the medical expenses that have and are to be incurred is so staggering! The amount needed is about 5 Million …thinking of how many zeroes the figure has makes me want to give up...But I know I wont and I cant! I will do anything or everything to save my son to the best that I could. Sad but true, I have nothing…Whatever is left of our meager savings has all been used up. Time is essential. The bone marrow transplant will be performed 2-3 weeks from now, and I need funds to deposit before any treatment can be done.
I am literally alone…It's just Iggy & myself in the hospital. Friends & relatives come to visit but I cannot compel them to do more. I am a one woman army. Thank God that I have the laptop and my mind as a weapon…
Iggy, is a well rounded individual who I can say is an achiever. From grade school to college he is very athletic: red belter in taekwondo, track & field and basketball. An honor student from pre-school to college, a leader in his own ways.
As a mother, it breaks my heart that such potential should go into waste…He is so young…IT IS MY MOST FERVENT PRAYER THAT YOU BECOME PART OF THE CYCLE OF HEALING…IN ANY WAY POSSIBLE. I HOPE I AM NOT ASKING TOO MUCH. HUMBLY I AM ASKING ANY HELP THAT YOU CAN EXTEND MY FAMILY. WHATEVER MEANS WOULD BE MOST WELCOME. I may not be able to repay your kindness and generosity in this lifetime…but I am confident that God knows…
I am realistic enough to understand how difficult life is today. I am not asking for total dole-out. If at all, any of you are willing to loan me…I would forever be grateful. I promise to pay, although little by little, with interest even. Please…This is already a desperate cry for help… I just cant imagine what is to be…
May I also request continued PRAYERS THAT IGGY NOT GIVE UP, HOLD ON AND BE STEADFAST IN HIS WILL TO LIVE. Likewise, prayers THANKING FATHER GOD FOR THE HEALING.
Thank you very much for taking time out to read this letter. I know in my heart that you will be able to help me and my family one way or the other. May the Good Lord always bless you and your loved ones.

Iggy's Story; Alex Gamboa's plea
Hey guys.
This is gonna sound totally random if you dont know what's been up lately but i'm running out of options and i'm just doing everything i can in my power. I am humbling myself no matter how embarrassing this is.
I know you get emails like these a lot that circulate on the web but please read on.
This month, a very very dear person in my life went on to battle for his own. I'm talking about Ian Gabriel Villanueva. He has been diagnosed with ACUTE MYOLOGEOUS LEUKEMIA last January 6. We've seeked three doctors' opinions in Bacolod and Manila. You may look up the definition of this kind of leukemia in wikipedia, there are lots of articles on it. To make things worse, he also acquired pneumonia, and is having a hard time getting it out of his system because the leukemia has greatly weakened his immune system. Just today, we got the news that some of his medications had to be stopped because he's turning yellow, indicating that his liver is failing from too much medication.
We're currently waiting for his pneumonia to pass so that chemotherapy can start. But with his liver's situation and weak immune system, we are not sure how that would be possible. He is awaiting a bone marrow donor for his transplant which will be done 3-4 weeks from now. His sister did not pass the compatability test to be a donor so now they're counting on his brother. Results will come out in 2 days.
Iggy, as his friends and family call him, is an amazing person. He has occupied a huge chunk in my life and in my heart. I have known him since I was in grade 2, and was my boyfriend for two years up until last year. To say that he has taught me so much, helped me a lot in the crucial years of my adolescent life and developed me into who I am today (and continues to watch out for me up to the present) does not even cover the entirety of how much he has touched my life. He remains one of my closest friends and one of the most special people in my life. I cannot begin to explain how important he is to me, and to all of us, his closest friends. He has such a wonderful and kind heart, is very down-to-earth despite all that he has achieved, and has so much potential in him. We call him superman because he is an amazing athlete, a very intelligent student, a student leader, a great friend and an amazing and pretty popular person all at the same time. When he wasnt around, our tight-knit group of close friends would sometimes sit down if we were bored and think of what he couldnt do. im serious, he's THAT well-rounded. He was the captain of the high school basketball team and won numerous athletic awards like Most Valuable Player in inter-school tournaments and was usually part of the Mythical Five. He was also specifically chosen to participate in the Nike Elite Camp in Manila along with three other players as representatives for Negros. He was part of the student council for two years; PRO when he was a junior and treasurer when he was a senior. He graduated with honors, leadership and athletic awards in high school, and he received a full academic scholarship from the College of Saint Benilde where he is also part of the varsity basketball team.
I am asking you guys to PLEASE, primarily, pray your hardest and strongest that a miracle will happen. We also thank God because we believe He is healing Iggy despite these trials. And also if you CAN, just can, give any amount at all, it will be greatly appreciated. Right now, the reflected cost of this whole ordeal is 5 million pesos. That includes the chemo and the bone marrow transplant, medications, hospital and doctor's fees, etc. His family's saving are close to being exhausted and, realistically and honestly, we cannot raise 5 million pesos alone. A downpayment is expected from them before the chemo or transplant can be executed. I do not know how much the downpayment is but i'm pretty sure it's expensive. If Iggy is left untreated, doctors say he has four months to live.
It is so sad to imagine that at such a young age and with so much potential, he has to battle this ugly disease. I am asking humbly for any help in any form that you may give. And if you could also pass on this email, it would be of great help too.Your kind donations may be deposited in this account: Vivien Villanueva's (Iggy's Mother), Banco De Oro or BDO, s/a 3010063053, Bacolod shopping branch. Prayers are just as important too so please do continue to include him in yours.
May God bless you.
Love and Thanks, Alex
***Thank you so much for reading this. I hope you will help me and my friends and batchmates save his life.
God bless you. Joanne
We are having fundraisers for him, we are selling ballers and shirts here in Bacolod and also in Manila.
Holy God Emperor
I want to buy a T-shirt but I live in the US. >.<
Har Har Har
aww! I'll think of something... thanks for the help and approval to post this. hope i get prayers, suggestions on fundraisers and even donations for him.
You may also send donations through Paypal at [email protected] thank you for the help!
All I can do is add him in my prayers, and share something...
Do you believe in miracles? Because I do...
Last 3 years ago, my brother suffered from a disease much worse than a leukemia, it's called Thalassemia. (my brother was 9 years old then) His doctors said that it was a lifetime disease, or people who suffered from this disease at a young age would never reach his/her teenage years. In addition to it, only 2 out of 10 people suffered from this disease.
My parents don't know what to do. My brother also must undergo series of tests, and a Bone Marrow transplant. But the doctors said, he must undergo first a blood transfusion and if it did not go well, he must undergo a Bone Marrow transplant. And yes, it is very expensive, it costs a million or more than a million. Our family is not rich. We only belong to a middle class section. That very night, the night he was brought to the hospital, the doctors said that from the mean time, he must undergo first a blood transfusion. And so he did undergo a blood transfusion. That news was spread in his present school and in his previous schools. They prayed for him. And after the result was released, his doctors said that he can now go home, though he is not still well, but Thank God, he will no longer undergo a Bone Marrow transplant. He had many medicines. He had to have a check-up at least every month.
----to make this short----
My brother had only 2 blood transfusions. And after that, the doctors said that we should forget about that thalassemia thingy. My brother is now well.
AMPALAYA JUICE...yes very yucky...but he have to sacrifice to heal himself...
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
to make ampalaya juice:
1. get some leaves of ampalaya
2. wash it first
3. then boil it
4. then...*taadaa!
->you now have ampalaya juice!
I hope I'd help...
*just PRAY...
thank you for that. Iggy is getting millions of prayers and support. All of us back in our school here in Bacolod and the other guys in Manila are doing everything to raise funds for him. And yes I also believe in miracles, especially in the miracle of prayer.
aw aw aw :((
A letter from Iggy's Mom
First and foremost I would like to THANK YOU for the UNCONDITIONAL LOVE that you have enveloped our whole family but most especially our dear Iggy.
Support in all forms came pouring in and never seems to stop…prayers, encouragement, food, favors, money, medicines, blood, friendship… you name it, we got it.
I just finished talking with our doctor, Dra. Honorata Baylon. I just want to share with you the timeline of the when and the what regarding Iggy's treatment course.
Today, February 7, 2009 is our 8th day post chemotherapy. So we have to wait a full 28 days to find out if Iggy has gone into remission and is ready for the bone marrow transplant. So that will be on February 27, 2009. At this point, I would like to apologize for telling you that the transplant was to be performed 2-3 weeks from when the 1st letter was written. The chemotherapy was delayed a good 2 weeks because of Iggy's lung and liver complications. Normally, one does not undergo chemotherapy when one has an infection of any kind in the body as chemo will make the individual immune compromised thus, is prone to more infections.
On February 27, 2009 another Bone Marrow Aspiration will be done to assess his status. My daily updates will still continue to share what is happening. There is nothing certain even on a day to day basis. We may have good days, but we may also have bad days. The full effect of his chemo will be evident in the next days to come…mouth sores, nausea, loss of appetite, hair loss, diarrhea, fever, nosebleeding, etc.
I know though, that before it can be said that he will be in remission, a LOT of blood transfusions will still be done. Favor, please schedule blood letting on different dates so that I know that blood will always be available for our beloved Iggy.
Its more of the side effects that can affect Iggy's spirit. I'm helpless on this part. How I wish that I can get the physical discomforts away from him. The best that I can do during this time is just be there for him and urge him not to give up.
Iggy has lost a LOT of weight. From a good 165 pounds to 126 pounds and still going down…But he is still conscious, walks to the comfort room. He is constantly tired though. Physically weak, but he is strong…I know…he can smile, laugh and be in good spirits. In fact every time anyone asks "how are you?" his answer is always "OK"…he does not dwell on self pity. I see him angry and impatient at times. A good sign, if you'd ask me.
If and when the bone marrow transplant happens, that's approximately 40 days of confinement in a special bone marrow transplant room. I really don't know details yet but Iggy was so worried that he would not get to see the sea of humanity that so lovingly enveloped him. It's a good thing that his fears were unfounded. Visitors will be allowed, but with special gowns, booties, caps, masks and sanitized to the max, although limited entry. I am hoping that the room has a glass window where he can be seen by visitors.
I am so overwhelmed and amazed with the support we are receiving. Miracles happen everyday since January 6, 2009. We are living witness. I know that more miracles will happen. Goodness is all around, God is all around. Its like the story of the loves and the fishes, or the wedding wine…bottomless. Our blessings came from family, friends, and yes, total strangers.
At this point I would like to really say THANK YOU to the catalysts of what is happening – Iggy's friends: more specifically his best friends since grade school and other members of USLS-IS batch 2007 and his girlfriend of course…It is such a humbling experience that these young pure hearted people gave their all for Iggy. As one parent put it, it has taught us, the adults the true meaning of brotherhood, selflessness, and generosity. In this times, this indeed made parents proud of their children. It was because of them that everything kept on growing….networks, friendships, support of all kinds. They are my modern day heroes. Their enthusiasm is so contagious that Iggy's fight has reached other continents as well. I am very thankful that we live in a time that computers and cell phones are an everyday thing.
I did not expect that the first letter I wrote would have this great an impact in our lives. But by the grace of God, that letter proved to be my greatest weapon in Iggy's fight. Our immediate circle of friends sent the letter to their other friends who sent it to their friends. It just grew….thus, even total strangers became our friends….an unending cycle…
Though we may be facing the greatest challenge of our life, we know that God Loves Us. We have surrendered everything to our Father…Thy will be done…No bitterness nor anger in our hearts…We live each day at a time…
Please pass this on…I know that these words are not enough to thank you all but this comes from the heart. God is Good!!!
God bless you all….
I love you,
this is so sad...
go iggy !!
u can do it!!
we support u!
hi guys! thanks for your support and prayers for IGGY!
here's an update on him!
March 2, 2009
Well, we knew that there would be ups and downs in Iggy's recovery process.
Despite his promising turnaround after the 2nd chemo session, Iggy has come down with a very high fever. Since Saturday, he has been running temperatures of 38 degrees Celsius and upwards, indicating an infection.
No, it is not a side-effect of the chemo. So doctors are trying to track the source of the infection ASAP.
For those who believe in prayer, please mention Iggy in your conversations with God and ask that this complication be resolved very soon.
By early next week, Iggy will undergo a bone marrow aspiration to test if the chemo has successfully killed all the cancer cells. If successful, another aspiration will be conducted after 2 weeks to check if new "good" cells have begun to grow. Only then can Iggy have the bone marrow transplant.
The interview with Korina Sanchez will be coming out this March, instead of the earlier announced May schedule. March is Women's month and the storyline is how Iggy's mom was able to rally thousands of people to help raise funds for Iggy. So please watch out for it... Korina's show airs Sundays on ABS-CBN.
ohh?? what date exactly?
prehas pla cla ni FRANCIS MAGALONA nan sket...
hows he na po??
I'll pray for him
go iggy!!!
laban lang ng laban..
kaya mo yan!!!
ala yan sa mga pinoy!! labanan mo dito lang kami sumusuporta sau!!!
I am the one who dwells within

Data wants to be free
I have mixed feelings about this. I certainly approve of high-value data sets being made available. I've benefitted a great deal from the wonderful people who put together Penn Tree Bank, VerbNet and similar projects. There are now some useful data sets included in libraries for R as well. I intend to make the summary data from my pronoun studies available when I publish the associated papers.
That said, getting data together in a manner that its interpretable and usable by somebody else is hard. However much I document my own data, whenever I have to go back to look at some old data it takes hours if not days to figure out what I'm looking at. And I'm the one who created it. Fully documenting a data set for someone not associated with the project takes time.
Given that NSF will be paying the salaries of the people who spend the time to document the data sets, it's reasonable to ask whether it's cost-effective. Just how much of a demand is there for data from other labs? I can think of many papers for which I wish I had the original stimuli. The number for which I want the original data are much smaller (though there are some for which it would be really useful).
2 comments:
Yes, I agree! In an ideal world all data would be optimally packaged and documented, and freely available to anyone. But doing this requires valuable resources, and the time spent doing this is time not spent on other things, such as research, teaching and other outreach activities (which the NSF increasingly wants from researchers).

That's a very good point. I have a similar response when I hear people say "let's try to make research software more professional".
You might also mention that it's not just time, but skill -- it takes some practice to define reusable standards, understandable documentation, etc. Just like any other kind of writing. This goes double for coding.
Here's the devil's advocate position: if your data's not in good enough order to distribute, you probably haven't done your experiments cleanly enough to be reliable. And certainly not cleanly enough to be directly replicable.

Appeals court vacates Ruby Ridge ruling
SAN FRANCISCO -- A federal appeals court Friday vacated its June decision that said an FBI sharpshooter may be tried for manslaughter when he killed Vicki Weaver during the Ruby Ridge standoff.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on June 5 rejected federal claims that Lon Horiuchi was immune from prosecution because he was acting in his official capacity when he killed Randy Weaver's wife. Ruling 6-5, the circuit at the time said Horiuchi could be tried if he was found to have acted illegally in that official capacity.
Friday's decision has no bearing on the case because a federal judge already dismissed charges at the request of Boundary County Prosecutor Brett Benson. After the court's June ruling, Benson declined to prosecute and U.S. District Judge Edward Lodge dismissed the case.
The court said it vacated its ruling because it has now become "moot." The court did not elaborate.
In legal terms, the decision means there is now no precedent on whether federal agents are immune from state prosecution for alleged wrongdoing committed while working in an official capacity.
The federal government, which claimed that its agents are immune from state prosecutions, vowed to appeal the decision to the Supreme Court but did not after Benson declined to prosecute Horiuchi.
Vicki Weaver died on the second day of an 11-day siege at the couple's northern Idaho cabin in 1992. The siege began with a shootout in which the Weavers' teen-age son and a deputy U.S. marshal were killed.
Horiuchi has said he didn't see Vicki Weaver, who witnesses say was killed as she held open the door of the cabin, her baby in her arms.

No more Tumblr for me. Why, you ask?
At first it was great. But then, with the introduction of "tumblarity" things went downhill fast. If I didn't post for a day or two my "tumblarity" would drop point after point. I was a loser by tumblr standards, even when in reality, it was just because I was out actually living my life instead of just documenting it. Backwards, no?
Of course, it's just a stupid number enacted by Tumblr to make people post more, become more invested in the community, but for me it became a marker of yet another way I'm not living up to an arbitrary standard. Enough was enough. I started blogging for me to communicate honestly through writing, but that's not what I achieved. I hope to do that here: be honest, be myself.

So in our effort to make our home photo shoot ready (I'm really working hard on it so I can share some pics), we decided to take out some of the trash. All 18 bags. And we promptly locked ourselves out of our new home. Oh, and did I mention the despot was inside? And I wasn't wearing shoes? And we weren't on an episode of Friends? The upside is we got to meet our neighbors across the way, learned our concierge calls it quits at 3pm on Sundays (or maybe that is just Superbowl Sunday?), and that when you call 911 it's important to mention that the emergency is not that you locked yourself out of your apartment, but that there is a five month old inside. Another upshot we never knew in 5 years and 7 moves? The fire department will come with their lights and horns blazing and pick-ax their way into your home for free. Sweet.
Boston's bravest came over today….

To celebrate Pass it on Week, we thought we'd share some of our favourite examples of upcycled or reused items. On this team, we're big fans of reusing, repairing and upcycling things, whether for ourselves or as part of our projects at work, so we had quite a lot of examples to choose from!
Why do we love reuse so much? Well, aside from the fact that reuse is absolutely the best thing you can do to avoid creating waste, it's a great way to get creative. All it takes is a bit of imagination and some DIY to give an unloved or past-its-best item a new life as something else. And there's something quite satisfying about looking at your creation and thinking 'Wow, I made that!'.
So (drum roll, please!) here is our Top Ten:
- The Re-Thinker: This amazing sculpture was created by artist Lucas Dew from steel items reclaimed from Aberdeen's recycling centres. Lucas transformed a pile of old metal, including pipes, bedsprings, spoons and a digger bucket, into a work of art. You can see the Re-Thinker for yourself at Grove Recycling Centre in Hazlehead.
- Our upcycled bus: You might have seen the Recycle for Aberdeen bus out and about in the town, but have you been inside since its amazing makeover? If not, have a look at the photos on Facebook to see some of the upcycled and reused materials it features.
- Textiles animation: Talented pupils at Gilcomstoun Primary School made this short video to encourage people to use the charity banks at Recycling Points to donate their unwanted clothes. The video is one of a series created as part of a project we did with The Reading Bus.
- Hand warmer: Martina made this heating pad from fabric scraps and cherry stones. It can be heated up in the microwave and is great for sore muscles, cold hands or to make your bed toasty! If you want to know how to make a similar one, there are instructions here. And you don't even have to eat a lot of cherries first as you can buy the stones online.
- Recycled art: Liina follows Recyclart on Facebook which has some great upcycling ideas. Her recent favourites include these cute reindeer made from sticks, jewellery made from textiles and this simple and pretty way of displaying flowers.
- Lightbulb vases: There's no way to recycle the old style of non-energy efficient lightbulbs but luckily they can be reused instead. Christina made hers into hanging vases. Don't they look great?
- Old faithfuls: Dave couldn't choose a favourite between his faithful boots, bought 18 years ago, resoled every 3 years and lovingly polished on a regular basis, or his beloved mountain bike, which over the years has had 3 new cassettes, 2 new cranks, a new back wheel and new handlebars. Both are still going strong for many miles for come, and the message is clear: cherish what you have rather than buying something new.
- Cassette tape lamp: If you've got a box of old tapes lurking at home, follow Christina's example and make a lamp out of them! There are instructions online for various versions – why not try making one with fairy lights?
- Teapot herb garden: Inspired by this photo, but lacking any outside space, Elaine decided to line her windowsill with a row of teapots and plant some herbs in them. If you don't have a teapot collection, you could plant herbs in tin cans instead.
- Desk tidy: Martina's desk features biscuit and sweetie tins which are now being used to keep her stationery in order. This is just one example of how you can get creative with reusing containers for storage. And you get to enjoy a tasty treat first!
We'd love to hear about your favourite examples of reuse and upcycling. Let us know in the comments or leave a message or post a photo on our Facebook page.

I've been dreaming of warm weather since the end of Christmas and I can't wait until crop top weather comes back. This crop top is from my past post and has a loose fit with batwing sleeves.

Everything I received seemed dead but planted and nurtured as I should. I was excited to receive the trees but slowly I realized my time was wasted and my money was gone.
Nothing...now they don't answer their phone or have ever answered an email. The only problem they don't have is collecting the payment... That was a smooth process and as quick as any. How big of a ripoff is required before action can be taken toward a company like this?
Should've researched this company like many have said on this site before I placed my order.
Just hoping for a response and some kind of retribution. Fingers crossed but not holding my breath.

We'll realize Islamic unity
Ayatollah Mohsen Araki, Secretary General of the World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought met with a board of Hezbollah representatives and said the present clashes between Shia and Sunni is organized by the enemies of Islam, reported Taqrib News Agency (TNA).
He said, "World of Islam has never been witness to such a period of clashes and intrigues among Muslims which are ongoing even in the farthest villages in Islamic countries."
Iranian cleric added," Contrary to these issues the future of the Muslims is a bright one and all Muslim elites and thinkers will agree that a final unity among Muslims is a necessity."
He referred to importance of Muslim unity in the holy book of Islam and highlighted prevention of intrigues and clashes as a feature of Muslims.
Secretary General of the World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought explained his view on the meaning of Islamic fraternity saying,"Fraternity is not a matter of forms in Islam rather it is a true relation which is a memoir of the grand Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).
He stressed proximity discussions are not stated merely by Iran or Shia Islam rather several calls are heard from civil and government centers in the world of Islam which highlight the issue of proximity and this is the great achievement by the World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought.

In order to get Mr. X, I needed a Mr. Temp. A Mr. T is someone who is close enough to intimidate a new potential yet far enough for him not to be taken too seriously. It's the guy who's "been trying so hard to get us together" but at the same time you're "very hesitant because you think you want someone a little more mature and accomplished…" Enter Mr. X with muscles flexed ready to win you over with his accomplishments. A Mr. T is also used as a distraction to make sure you keep it cool and aloof in the first few months of dating a Mr. X.
Not any man can be a proper Mr. T; choose someone too basic and you risk making yourself seem less desirable, but also choose someone too good and you risk seeming like an ungrateful bitch and Mr. X will worry that you'd treat him the same way.
The formula for a perfect Mr. T is this: good family (equivalent or even better than your Mr. X) + lots of money – good personality.
And I have (or should I say, HAD) a perfect Mr. T.
You see with my Mr. T, who i've left hanging out in the cold for the past three years was freaked out when I went from "not interested" to "let's meet up baby, it's been a while." I think the rush of hot water from all those years out in the cold intimidated him and at the same time gave him an unnecessary ego boost. He decided it wasn't a good idea for us to meet anymore. I knew he wanted us to meet though, he just wanted me to beg for it (again, Mr. T's had bad personalities remember?) I told him it was fine by me and headed out to dinner with two of my girlfriends. He continued to text me telling me not to misunderstand, trying desperately to turn it into a conversation that would end with me asking him again to meet and insisting that we did. Instead I responded with one word each time, leaving a twenty minute gap between each text. When I left the restaurant I had three missed calls from him to which I responded with a text saying I was out and busy and would try to get back to him later. He said he wasn't buying it and I ignored.
That's where the conversation ended. Usually i would never consider wasting my time on him but this time I really needed him around. And the bigger of a dick he was the better he fit into my plan. I know Mr. T will eventually call back and make up some stupid excuse as to why he couldn't see me…but until then I had other things to work on, but more on that in the next post!

KSE redux:
ok so i may have been wrong on my call last week, or early :P. the index ended the week solidly above the 10,000 mark. and from watching the movements in alot of the counters i think some adjustment needs to be made to how i evaluate the market here.
the kse seems to be alot shallower than the worlds main indicies, which are what i'm used to watching.
and i'm not sure what to make of that.
now before you say d'uh!, think back to the day it dropped 500 pts and tell me you didnt feel your heart flutter just a bit,… and show me your receipts for your purchases the week before last 😛
show me yours i'll show you mine 😛
so after last weeks performance,.. are we gonna blaze thru 11,000 onto 12,000?
all i can say is watch this week carefully. there are still alot of retail traders out there that went long in december and january near the top. so it depends on what they do when their stock breaks even. do they jump ship, relieved they only got a little scratched and head for what appear to be greener pastures? or do they add to their position and grab the bull by the horns?
retail traders may be seen as complete idiots, but they do represent a large portion of the market ( lol read into that what you will :P).
much is said about the hamours in the market, and how you really dont want to be in the way of that wave. but like a tsunami, there are multiple waves, and retail traders are the waves that follow the main devestation.
the ripple effect you could call it, i suppose.
the big boys were splashing around on wednesday and for most of last week, so saturday could see the second wave.
i would still watch 11,000 carefully if we hit it this week. profit taking there might be stronger than people think, considering the liquidity problems many on the floor are having.
if i invested in durex or trojans, i'd be making money while people get laid.:D
if i invested in rubber gloves, i can wake up every morning knowing somewhere in the world someones gritting their teeth during a rectal exam. 😀
if i invested in charmin toilet paper, well,.. you get the picture. 😛
lol if you guys are bored enough to read this, heres some homework for you:
who is the largest maker/seller of toilet paper in the world?
i had a great weekend :D, how was yours? 😛
oh and skunk is now available live and direct on messenger 😛 my addy is in my profile 😀

An email we received yesterday:
Hi there
I am just emailing you to make you aware of the recent series of car break ins that have been occurring in the West Pilton Avenue area. I was a victim of a car break in and theft last night and I know of at least two more people that have had their cars broken into ( one tonight and one a couple of nights ago). It seems to be the work of a gang of teenage boys from that area.
They stole my bag from my car, a woman's purse and a mans wallet and do the by smashing in the passenger front window or the drivers window. They seem to carry their thefts out from between 9-12 pm.
I am just informing you of this occurrence of car break ins so that awareness can be raised , so that people take care not to leave any valuables in their car on show or non valuables such as a bag. My bag was not of value but contained my uni work which is of value to me as makes up a large percentage of my coursework marks and its something i can never replace now . They will steal anything that they may suspect to contain anything of value.
I hope that you can raise awareness with this information.
Kind Regards
Diane Baird (by email)

Essays on the Quality of Life
Springer Science & Business Media, Jul 31, 2003 - Medical - 492 pages
Since initiating the journal Social Indicators Research in 1974, Alex C. Michalos has been a pioneer in social indicators and quality-of-life research. This collection of nineteen articles provides an overview of nearly 30 years of work, including papers drawn from diverse sources and papers never published before. Topics range over quality of life investigations connected to the problems of combining social, economic and environmental indicators, measuring the status of women in Canada, housing and migration, health and human well-being, older peoples' well-being, leisure activities and health, impact of public services, police services, criminal victimization, feminism and ethnic relations on the quality of life. The final paper, on multiple discrepancies theory (MDT), is the author's unique contribution to an empirically testable new foundation for theories of utility, satisfaction and happiness.

Please help me to stop being such a jealous cow(27 Posts)
Before I begin, please PLEASE go gentle on me. I do not have much self confidence at the moment and can't take a beating
There is a woman I know, let's call her Lorna, an acquaintance/friend who is everything I want to be. She's pretty, funny, confident, outgoing, good at the sport we do (which is how we met), clever blah blah. She's also a lovely person and has been nothing but nice to me.
My OH runs his own business which is linked to the mutual sport. She is unemployed at the moment, so he has taken her on to do odd bits and bats and she often attends trade fairs with him etc. For some reason, I feel wildly jealous about it, and it's making me feel all sorts of horrible things towards her (which of course I keep to myself).
Part of the problem is that I have always helped OH with his business. I enjoy it, personally think I am quite good at it and he has always said that when he can afford it he'd take me on. Now I feel like she is getting asked to do everything and is better than me and it just confirms my own feelings of uselessness. I feel like I am rubbish at everything, unsociable, boring, and that Lorna is the total opposite. It just confirms my own feelings of inadequacy.
I feel a bit...hurt and feel angry towards Lorna, although I know this is totally irrational.
It's eating me up inside and I am avoiding events that she is at because I feel so upset about it all.
Having written that, I can see just how unreasonable i am being. But right now I feel so crap about my life this just isn't helping. Why do I feel like a stupid fucking jealous child? I'm in my 30s FGS.
I don't think you're being irrational. If you've always helped with the business and he has always said that he would take you on more permanently at some point then you're bound to feel that you've been overlooked in favour of Lorna. I'd be pretty annoyed as well, if I were you. Getting jealous is maybe not appropriate but talking to your partner and explaining that you're cheesed off & would have preferred it to be you picking up the extra jobs and attending the trade fairs etc. is quite legitimate. If you say nothing he won't know how you feel.
I've told him how I feel (but left out some of the more horrible irrational things I've been feeling!)
He says that Lorna is very good at sales and has lots of contacts in the industry that I don't. He is right, which is the hard thing.
Well... there's one issue, which is your self esteem, which would probably benefit from some counselling or psychotherapy. It should be possible to meet a nice woman and think how nice she is, gosh she's good at that sport, without comparing yourself negatively all the time. You are doing well at wrestling your horrible feelings towards her, as you realise it isn't your fault, but you shouldn't have to feel bad either. You deserve to be happy in your own skin.
Second issue is your OH taking on someone else with the business when you have always been the one to help him up till now. What does he think he's playing at? Are you really being irrational - is Lorna filling in because you're not available to attend the trade fairs - or are you actually being somewhat pushed out? It doesn't necessarily have to be for any sinister reason (although it wouldn't be the first time such a thing had ever happened in the history of humankind), but maybe he's just being totally thoughtless, giving a friend some much-needed work experience for her CV, fine, but neglecting his own partner in the process?
BTW.... being passed over for Lorna doesn't make you useless or inadequate. The only material difference between her and you, by the sound of it, is that she's been more vocal and then grabbed the opportunity offered whereas you've kept quiet. However, you have several big advantages over Lorna, not least that you're the person he loves most...
Some cross-posting there. Hmm, well, if she's so good at sales and well-connected it won't take her too long to find other employment, will it? If she concentrates on job-hunting, that is, instead of giving her time gratis to someone else's business. <cynical>
I'm thinking the same as Anniegetyourgun that she'll be looking for a permanent position and won't be happy with bits and pieces for long. In the meantime, you could be proactive about this. While you've got the opportunity why don't you team up with Lorna, go along to the trade-fairs, learn what she knows, meet her contacts.... so that when she goes you can fill her shoes and be just as good at sales etc.? More than one way of skinning a rabbit.
I don't want to "compete" with Lorna, I recognise that she has a skill set that I don't, but I do feel usurped. My OH says I am jealous because she's a woman and that if he had taken on one of male friends I wouldn't feel this way. I can't work out if he is right. Embarrassingly, I think perhaps he is a little bit right, so maybe it's not just about the work, but also about me feeling jealous. I HATE that I feel this way, it's very immature and ridiculous and I need to get over it because it's affecting my social life and my relationship with my OH.
I hope you told him he was talking a load of patronising crap! Even if you do feel worried that they are sipping cocktails together in hotel bars during trade shows or whatever that's immaterial. You were doing those jobs for him, he's brought in someone new.... that's your real problem with this.
Then again, a man who immediately leaps to defend their new female employee and accuses their partner of being jealous of them solely for their gender.... 'methinks he doth protest too much' ....?
Good advice from Cognito to
steal build bridges with Lorna's contacts.
How secure are you in your relationship with OH? Is it long term, do you have children together?
Your husband, im sorry to say, is thinking with his cock - I assume he is paying this woman to do what you used to do for him for free? I wouldn't stand for it actually. You have told him how it makes you feel and his comeback - "she has the skills i need, you don't" Errr, bye then!
I think that in your shoes, I would actually still feel 'jealous'/miffed it was a man your OH had taken on. You say that you always helped your OH with his business, therefore, it was part of your relationship with him. He has moved you out of that part of the relationship and moved someone else in. The fact that it's a woman makes it a bit worse, but the fact remains that he's replaced you in part of his life with someone else. Have said that, it's only 'part' of his life and it's a business part, not a personal part.
I think it's a bit of a low blow to accuse you of jealousy because she's an attractive woman, to be honest. A mite manipulative, no? Now you feel you have to line up with them to give yourself a hard time for being so unreasonable, when actually, you're not being all that unreasonable.
I wonder how your OH would feel if you brought in another man to take over the jobs he normally does with/for you. Would he be pleased if you started attending events with the hypothetical new man, and be satisfied with your explanation that the new man just had a better skill set than OH does?
What would concern me in your situation is how your OH has been quick to dismiss your feelings outright and not offered you any reassurance. It's all about him.
Op I'm sorry to ask this but do you think something is going on between your OH and Lorna?
Maybe your feelings are spot on and you should stop turning this on yourself and direct it where it might be better deserved?
I hope I am wrong in what I'm thinking. Only you would be able to answer that though.
Hi there
Sorry for disappearing - I had work to do. No, I don't think for one minute there is something going on between them romantically, I trust him implicitly and don't think that she would be the kind of woman to do that.
I think my jealousy stems from my own insecurities about myself, rather than my insecurities about our relationship, although I do think one day he might wake up and realise how crap I am and that him seeing successful, beautiful people like Lorna won't help.
I feel sometimes that I am sabotaging my own happiness. When he comes in from being with Lorna at a meeting, I am snappy with him and grumpy, because I feel it should be me, I suppose. And then I think "no wonder he wants Lorna to work for him". Instead, I suppose I shuold be gracious and fun so that I don't pale so much in comparison.
Another approach... rather than relying on your OH for approval and security, how could you get that independently? What do you do that is worthwhile and gives you satisfaction? What could you do that would give you a sense of achievement that had nothing to do with him or his business?
Do you feel you're in a competition with not just Lorna but also your OH? Do you feel that others are doing better than you generally?
I think you have every reason to feel insecure about this and I think your gut instinct is telling you hello you need to Do somthing about this. You are not been silly for feeling this way. Think your husband is thinking via his pants.
I think you may be right in some respects, Cogito. I Do feel worthless compared to OH. He has built up a successful business, has done very well for himself despite leaving school with only a few GCSEs. I'm the opposite - I did very well at school and university, but now work in a dead end job I hate and feel very stuck. I do feel that my life is rubbish, that it's my fault for not being sufficiently ambitious/proactive/whatever but don't know what to do about it.
I have hobbies and interests outside of my relationship which I pursue and enjoy. But these are solitary pursuits so there is no "competition" as such. Whenever I'm involved in something with other people I can't help but compare myself and always feel I am the worst.
I think you should tag along and try to build a friendship with this woman. By avoiding events she's at and letting her have a clear field while you seethe out of sight, makes her 'fun & involved, interesting person' and you 'grumpy unpleasant person to be around'.
Push through the jealousy and learn from her sales methods etc.
I'd be the exact same as you, I have jealousy and insecurity issue but I accept them. Because I have no reason for them!
Your DP is handling this badly though, if he knows you feel the way you do, he shouldn't be patronising you like that and should be doing his best to put your mind at rest.
You're right dequoisagitil (like your French name!). I have often thought that myself too. I need to be fun and interesting, in my own right at least, and not the boring grumpy little wifey stuck at home.
I just need to bury my jealousy and get on with her, because she is a nice person and before all this I did really like her.
"now work in a dead end job I hate and feel very stuck."
To me that sounds like you need a new challenge and the obvious first step would be to get a job that reflects your abilities and makes you feel worthwhile. I don't think you'd actually be happy picking up the bits and pieces you described earlier. Does your OH value what you do or does he take you for granted?
To be honest, I would feel the same as you, OP. Does anyone really like the thought of another woman getting close to and spending a lot of time with their husband?
You admit that you have issues with your self-esteem and confidence and blame yourself for your insecurity.
But if I were in your shoes, I would not make excuses for my feelings. There is definitely room for jealousy and caution here. Many affairs begin in the workplace where curiosity and opportunity collide. If I were you, I would insert myself between them and keep an eye on proceedings. Best to displace her rather than leave them to it.

Buttermilk Biscuits with Sausage Gravy
We are huge fans of breakfast foods; not just for breakfast but for any meal. My darling husband could eat breakfast 3 times a day everyday and never get sick of it. I love making new things but you can also never go wrong with the good, old classics like biscuits and gravy. I am always searching for a good white gravy that isn't too complicated and is pretty consistent everytime it's made. I've tried several gravy recipes and they either turn out lumpy, runny, or some other type of consistency that gravy just isn't supposed to be. I can finally say after searching for an incredibly long time that I've found the perfect white gravy recipe that is great with sauasage in it but is equally as good without the sausage. Since I've come across this recipe I've made it 3 times; it's so good and easy and comes out at the same consistency every time. This recipe is also very easy to half if you are feeding a small crew; like 2!
Buttermilk Biscuits-
2 Cups unbleached flour
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1/2 Teaspoon baking soda
1 Teaspoon salt
6 Tablespoons shortening
3/4 Cup buttermilk
Sausage Gravy-
1 Pound bulk pork sausage
3 Tablespoons bacon drippings
1/3 Cup flour
1/2 Teaspoon salt
1/4 Teaspoon black pepper
1/4 Teaspoon red pepper flaces (optional)
3 Cups milk
To prepare the biscuits, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together. Add the shortening and cut in with a pastry blender or fork to resemble coarse crumbs. Add the buttermilk and mix just until moistened; do not overmix.
Remove to a floured surface and sprinkle with additional flour. Knead 4 or 5 times. Roll 3/4 inch thick and cut with a floured 3 inch cutter.
Arrange the biscuits with edges almost touching on a baking sheet. Bake at 450 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown.
To prepare the gravy, brown the sausage in a large skillet, stirring until crumbly. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon to drain, reserving the sausage drippings in the skillet. Add the bacon drippings ( I didn't have bacon drippings so I just used vegetable oil) and flour, mixing well. Cook until the flour is gold brown, stirring constantly. Whisk in the milk. Season with salt, fresh ground black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to medium. Return the sausage to the skillet. Cook for 15 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly. Serve with biscuits.

Miami had been in touch with Perez, but the state of Florida and the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration had jurisdiction over the cranes, City Manager Daniel Alfonso said.
Miami's emergency management director, Pete Gomez, said conditions remain risky and replacement crews will not be coming in until the weather improves. There's 20 to 25 of them and now officials here in Miami are advising anyone who lives in a building next to a crane to get out.
Construction sites across Irma's potential path in Florida are being locked down to remove or secure building materials, tools and debris that could become flying missiles in hurricane winds.
If high-rise dwellers choose to stay, officials said the safest place in a high-rise building to ride out a hurricane is an interior, concrete-enclosed stairwell.
Irma's winds also toppled a crane that sat atop a building.
Tower cranes are hundreds of feet tall, and their counterbalances can weigh as much as 30,000 pounds.
If the house starts shaking and they fear the wind is ripping off the roof, there's a crawl space under the home as a last resort.
Hurricane Irma approaches Cuba and Florida. NOAA via AP
The massive storm made landfall in the Florida Keys on Sunday morning after battering several islands in the Caribbean earlier this week, leaving 22 dead.
"No one wanted to help us, said one of the men of Wayne".
That would include the regulars at the most infamous South Beach dive bar, who tossed back drinks, shot pool and played the jukebox - loud - as Irma approached.
"Water still rising in downtown Miami along Brickell Avenue", WSVN reporter Brian Entin said.
Now downtown Miami is flooded and the Keys have been slammed hard. The tweet concludes: "Actually it's insulation from a high rise under construction".
At least 25 people have died from the storm so far throughout the Caribbean, while there are three reported deaths on the U.S. mainland.

January 2018
We were lucky enough to book this cruise and fortunate that no one else booked on the same day, so my wife and I had the boat and crew all to ourselves. We didn't actually see the sunset because of the clouds covering the horizon, but it was the perfect way to end our vacation....nothing short of SPECTACULAR!!!
December 2017
Highly recommend this personalized small group tour. Although we ventured out on a cloudy evening, it was very relaxing, informative and the guide was attentive. Snacks were good. The small group size was satisfying as you could enjoy the views serenely. Our guide Reynolds was excellent.
August 2017
The guides were great, they picked us up on time, we were communicated with well at all points - will recommend Sea Tango and will use them again.

|<nettime> Popular apologetic uprising
If seems the outcome of America's recent presidential election has given rise to a very interesting crop of web sites that allow grieving american people to apologize to the rest of the world. While some measure of comfort may come from reading the contrition, forgiveness and solidarity being expressed globally on sites like http:// sorryeverybody.com, it is quite compelling to think about the oppositional potential if all of these voices could be organized into an effective instrument to restore sanity to the leadership of the country that is presently the world's most powerfully pugilistic. -pld ps: I too wish to take a moment and apologize for the conservative capitalistic 'oilgarchy' setting about carving up the world to feed the ugly appetites of its children.

Hello everybody! Here is this week's photo!
There are no horses in this post, but this is an arena where horses are ridden in. This is the arena where group and private lessons are normally held. It's covered, and is where summer camp shows are held at the end of every week. Shows are held here, and it is probably the most used arena at Garrod Farms.

Debbie 'Whatevah' Schmutz:Trashbag in Heels
Obama the Wise, knew precisely what he was doing when he pulled MizzSchmutz from the primordial ooze of the Florida Everglades and anointed her as the Dominate-tricks of the Democrat National Committee. Screaming-Mimi Schmutz is Howard Dean, in bitchy drag. Ain't she cool?
'Debbie Does Malicious' might be effective against run-of-the-mill Republicans however, when she pokes a finger in the eye of Retired U.S. Army LTC. Allen B. West, now Congressman West from Florida's District 22, she has to be ready for the heavy artillery he brings with him. MizzSchmutz will soon realize that the biggest gun Cong. West brings to a fight, is his superior intellect.
She and her sycophant supporters might be under the misapprehension that the target of her verbal venom Congressman West, has stolen the mainstay of Democrat rhetoric, name-calling. If that's what they think, they couldn't be more wrong. His use of descriptive terms such as, 'vicious' and 'despicable', in his now famous e-mail sent to her following her attack on him from the floor of the House of Representatives, is simply a spot-on accurate description of her behavior. Take another look at the videotape of her venomous diatribe. It is pure hate-speech on steroids. It's ugly.
Quite obviously, DWS is the designated leader of the orchestrated Democrat attack on Allen West by Obama and his band of freedom thieves. They are in mortal fear of this freshman Congressman. They know that this man has absolutely no fear of America's sworn enemies, whether they come garbed in Islamic cover-ups dating from the seventh century or, in finely-tailored suits accessorized by Gucci. The very mention of the name Allen West, strikes terror in their souls. Delicious!
They also know they cannot win on the merits of their leftist Liberalism. They've practiced their cruel tax & spend policies every time they've been able to dupe a majority of voters into handing over the control of our Federal Government. And every time, these policies have sunk us deeper in debt and indentured a large segment of our population to the government in the form of unconscionable entitlements. Plus, the implementation of these misguided, bankrupting policies inevitably leads to ever more wide-spread corruption. This particular brand of corruption seems to permeate even the very cornerstones of every Government edifice in our Nation's Capital.
And so, Debbie Whatevah and Obama Howevah and their legions of something-for-nothing complicit thieves of our freedoms and Liberty, are obliged to resort to their favorite tactics-of-choice: bald-faced lies; class warfare; racism; deceitful rhetoric; character assassination; name-calling and of course their all-time favorite - vicious verbage.
Rave on, Lunatics. You've poked your finger in the eye of the wrong retired-warrior-turned-Congressman, this time. Get ready to be out-maneuvered, out-smarted, over-whelmed, out-fought and mortally-wounded. You've initiated this battle and it might very well turn out to be the Waterloo of the Democrat Party. The only battle ribbons you can hope to be awarded for your efforts will be Band-Aids. And sadly for you and yours, they'll be awarded post-humously - - - so to speak.
Can you hear me now?

The 5 W's of Dojo
If you haven't heard of Classroom Dojo- I suggest you check out this post! It is an app which I explored this week that I think would be wonderful to have in a classroom. Here are the 5 W's of Classroom Dojo to help you decide if this is something that would work in your classroom!
Who Can Use Dojo?
EVERYONE. Any teacher can use Dojo in their classroom by simply creating an account- for free! You can also have multiple classrooms on your account, so don't worry if you have numerous classes you want to use Dojo for. Another cool feature is that you can connect to your school, and create a school-directory of sorts.
What is Dojo?
Dojo is a great class management, communication, and portfolio tool. It has tons of great features to use in your classroom- you can choose to use just one aspect of Dojo that works best for your class, or go ahead and use it for everything! Take a look at some of the main features:
- Student Behaviour:
This feature allows you to record and give feedback to student behaviour. Dojo has two feedback options, either "positive," or "needs some work." What I love is that you can choose to use it for only reinforcement of positive behaviour, or to monitor both positive and negative behaviour- up to you! Dojo has listed a few examples of each behaviour that you can use, or you can also add your own examples, such as "helping others" or "blurting." If you select that a student displays positive behaviour, you can select the behaviour they showed, and a point gets added to their character! Visa versa with the negative feedback; however, points are taken away from their overall score instead. You can also create groups of students, such as table groups, and give points to teams!
2. Classroom Stories:
One of my favourite aspects of Dojo is the story feature. It enables you to create a classroom story, which allows the teacher to post pictures or videos of what is going on in the classroom, post documents such as newsletters, and write posts reminding parents about special days, events, or what went on during the day! It is a great and easy way to keep parents informed and updated on what is going on in the classroom!3. Student Mode:
Student mode allows students to post images and statuses to their own story! This is a great new feature which works wonderfully as a student-created portfolio. This feature works great for student/parents/teacher conferences, and creates student accountability for their work! Teachers also have the ability to approve posts before they can be viewed by the students' parents.
4. Parent Communication:
A great feature about Dojo is that parents are also able to create an account which allows them to monitor their child's feedback! Dojo creates invites for the parents in the room, so all parents have to do is create an account and accept the invitation. They then have access to view their child's individual story, as well as the class story. They can also view their students points, and see how their day is going by looking at their behaviour feedback. Dojo also has the messaging feature, which creates direct messaging between the teacher and the parents (without actual phone numbers having to be exchanged.)
5. Other Neat Features
– Attendance- Keep attendance!
– Random– Randomly selects a student from the class list: great for picking volunteers!
– Timer- Use the timer throughout the day!
Why Use Dojo?
It connects teachers, parents, and students- "they can work together as a team, share in the classroom experience, and bring big ideas to life in their classrooms and homes." Dojo is great for students, as it offers immediate feedback, and allows students to monitor this feedback throughout the day.
Where Can You Use Dojo?
One great thing about Dojo is how easy and accessible it is to use. Not only can you have Dojo favourited on your computer, you can also download the app onto your phone! If you keep your phone at your desk during the day, you can easily walk over during the day to add or take away points. This is also convenient for parents, who can download the app to their phone and have notifications to let them know when a message has been sent, or a photo has been posted to their child's story!
When Should You Use Dojo?
Throughout the day- before school, during school, after school; whatever works best for you! Another thing I should mention is that if you have the Dojo app on your phone, you can set "quiet" hours for the app. This means that notifications for the app will be turned off during the quiet hours, and you will get them when the next day starts! This makes sure that you are not constantly being bombarded with messages or likes during your evenings, and ensures you have time to unplug after school!
It is a great app that you can use however works best for you in your classroom!

Gunman opens fire on Calif. police station; suspect dead
No officers were injured during the incident
By PoliceOne
TEMPLE CITY, Calif. — A gunman is dead after he opened fire on the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department station in Temple City.
Officials told NBC San Diego that the gunman, who was registering as a sex offender, opened fire on deputies Monday morning when they followed him back out to his car.
Officials deployed SWAT and two armored vehicles to "neutralize the threat," Deputy Juanita Navarro-Suarez said in a statement.
Police deployed a flash-bang device at the SUV, KTLA 5 reported. No movement was apparent inside the vehicle.
Authorities exited the armored vehicle and determined the threat was eliminated. The gunman was pronounced dead at the scene, the Los Angeles Times reported. According to The San Gabriel Valley Tribune, it appears the suspect died of a probable self-inflicted wound.
No deputies were injured in the incident.

ISTNET (Developmental) neurotoxicity Workshop
23 January 2014 – 24 January 2014, 09.00 – 17.00
Venue: Institute of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Universityof Zürich, Switzerland
The number of participants is restricted
Further information: email@example.com
The currently used regulatory test methods in the fields of neurotoxicity (NT) and developmental neurotoxicity (DNT) have several limitations. One of them is that the species differences between rodent and human nervous systems are pronounced, and also cellular signaling may differ considerably. Differences in signal transduction between rodents and man can change the toxicodynamic and thus the effects of compounds on organs and organisms. Therefore, new concepts for safety testing which are based on human biology are being developed. To date, this process has been SCIENCE-driven, i.e. the direction of research and the output obtained were mainly driven by academic interest, and theoretical considerations. This approach has largely failed to deliver validated test methods. We therefore promote a NEED-driven process, i.e. focus of research activities on regulatory requirements. For this purpose, we want to bring together the regulatory experts together with test developers and potential users to start a constructive dialog on test requirements, right from the start of new developments. A first step will be a common workshop. In this meeting we will gather an expert panel including representatives of regulatory bodies and test developers from academia and industry. The regulatory experts will present the requirements for new human cell -based NT/DNT tests for risk assessment and management. This meeting will serve as an a starting point for discussion between scientists from academia and industry and scientists from regulatory bodies to define the requirements for in vitro NT/DNT toxicity tests ready for regulatory purpose.
In occasion of 10th anniversary of the Finnish platform for alternatives to animal testing, Fincopa invites to the symposium "Implementation of the Directive 2010/63/EU in Finland andthe role of alternative methods in biomedical research" which will take place on September 20th at University of Tampere, School of Medicine. For the agenda of this symposium and further information, please click here.
The 29th workshop of Scandinavian Society for Cell Toxicology (SSCT) will be organized as a joint meeting with the DSTFM, section for toxicology, 25-27 September 2013 in Charlottenlund, Denmark. The theme is "Frontiers in Cell Toxicity Testing". We are looking forward to have a meeting with up-to-date scientific knowledge. We wish you warmly welcome to Charlottenlund and call you to send abstracts to be presented as oral presentations or as posters.
Please find further information ragrding this event here: SSCT workshop – Frontiers in Cell Toxicity Testing – September 25th to 27th 2013
The EU FP7-funded co-ordination project AXLR8 has announced the availability of the publication Alternative Testing Strategies: Progress Report 2011 & AXLR8-2 Workshop Report on 'A Roadmap to Innovative Toxicity Testing'. The 2011 report includes:
- An introduction to the AXLR8 project
- An update on the activities and achievements of 3Rs-oriented projects funded under the health and environment themes of the 6th and 7th EU Research Framework Programmes during the year 2010
- The AXLR8-2 workshop report, including contributions from workshop presenters and reports from break-out groups
- AXLR8 Scientific Panel recommendations for future research and innovation funding
- A directory of key projects and coordinators.
Given the substantial and increasing global investment in research aimed at developing new safety assessment methods and implementing the 3Rs in toxicology, there is a recognised need for better information exchange and transparency in this research area. AXLR8 provides the tools for effective real-time dialogue, information exchange, problem solving, and international cooperation.
The AXLR8 2011 Report is available for download from the AXLR8 website. A limited number of hard copies are also available by contacting the AXLR8 administration .
The European Chemicals Agency has published two major reports on the working of REACH and CLP Regulations and on the implementation and use of non-animal test methods and testing strategies. Video interviews with ECHA senior personnel can also be viewed online.

I just got back from an INSANE vacation to Reykjavik, Iceland. Most people don't even know where Iceland is, and those who do think its covered by ice and deserted. But no, rest assured it is actually quite the hopping scene. The town of Reykjavik is full of really sweet people selling cute wool sweaters. Yes, a stereotype, yet still slightly true. Overall, everyone was just so happy and went about their day with big smiles on their face.
In addition to the wonderful people, the town has a bunch of incredible restaurants serving up all kinds of interesting things. I got the opportunity to try shark, and let me tell you it is absolutely gross (but I'm still glad I can say I tried it.) They also have a lot of lamb dishes; I must've had lamb 6 times while I was there! And of course, they have salmon and herring galore.
And finally, Iceland is so beautiful in so many ways that it's practically indescribable. One day, we took a bus tour to all the major natural wonders and they were all simply breathtaking. My favorite was Gullfoss, the enormous waterfall in the middle of the glaciers. I highly recommend everyone takes a trip to Iceland, as it is so vastly different from anything the USA has to offer while being a short 5 hours away! In the mean time, check out my pictures below!

Ok, I got this link in my email http://mmaforfans.com/kung-fu-vs-tai-kwon-do/ First I want to say, that I'm only an 8th gup, so I could not do better, however, in the first sparring match here between a kung foo practitioner and a Tang Soo Do practitioner, I am certain that if he (the kung foo guy) were to come to World Tang soo Do Association District 7, he would meet much stiffer competition. I KNOW that if he came to Scota Karate that he would find himeself having to wrk much harder.
That being said, Merry Christmas to all! It's another beautiful Christmas day for us to remember that Jesus came for us, so we can come before the God of heaven as His children.
Have a wonderful day!
