Retail sales grew at an expected slow pace in February, as U.S. consumers continued tightening spending amid a weakening economy.
Sales at the nation's biggest chain stores rose, on average, 2.8 percent for the month, when retailers typically clear out winter merchandise, a Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi index showed.
The gain fell short of a much healthier increase of 6 percent in February 1999, before consumer confidence began to ebb because of higher fuel costs and a plunging stock market.

Young boy dies in Norristown fire, while rescuing his father
"You only see this happening on TV never expect it to happen to one of our own," Heather Hadrick, the victim's aunt, said.
Marijah sobs uncontrollably, she played with her cousin 12 year old Sanford Harling all the time- and called him by his nickname Man Man.
"Man Man, he was so sweet- not going to be same without Man Man here."
The 7th grader at Lakeshore loved basketball and his family-
Investigators say, he died, trying to save his dad who'd just had hip replacement surgery and was trapped upstairs here in the family's Norristown home. when the fire broke out on the first floor Sanford ran back in to help his father.
"Me and another guy told him to jump no other way to get out."
Eventually Mr. Harling did jump, family members say- breaking his back in the fall- his wife and 2 other children escaped, but it was too late for Sanford, investigators say he got trapped in the kitchen area.
"Unfortunately we had a tragic tragic fire- resulted in loss of life.
Wrapped in red cross blankets the devasted family hug each other for strength-and choke back tears. Sister raja, simply can't believe sanford is gone.
"He was an amazing person, my favorite peron i loved him to death."
"Born on June 6, 2003, Sanford, also known as "Man Man", was only 12 [years] old and a member of our Norristown Youth Eagles football family. In 2015, he played on the 6th grade team. On the football field, Sanford could be seen cheering on his teammates and praying for them. Off the field, his personality was bright and comical.
"He is survived by his loving mother, Dana, his father Sanford, Jr., and his siblings. Our goal is to raise money to help the family recover what they lost in the fire and to give Sanford the proper burial that a hero deserves. We are hoping that our community will come together to ease this family's pain during this difficult time. Any amount will help and 100% of the funds raised will go to the Harling family."


text: Hello everyone, this video was shared by The_Challenger on his Facebook (strangely enough, not on the World of Tanks Youtube page) – in it, The_Challenger has a look at the Hetzer. * Post by The_Challenger. * I have following things to add to the video: - well, first, that's not even a Jagdpanzer 38t in Munster, it's the post-war G-13 (different gun, engine, other smaller things) - at cca 1:04, the TD is incorrectly market, it's a Marder II, not III - "Hetzer" was not an official name or even soldier used name, but a post-war mix-up according to H.Doyle, not sure why this stuff gets repeated. The "chaser" translation – first time I heard that (usually it's translated as "agitator"), but I asked a native German speaker and it's apparently somewhat correct (in the "courser hound" sense) - Panzer 38t was – as far as I know – never designated as a medium tank, it was always a light tank or simply "tank" (Panzerkampfwagen). In Czech service, 38t was known as "Light Tank Model 1938″. - 7,5 PaK 39 was solid, but the gun you are looking at is StuK 40 converted to look like PaK 39 by removing the muzzle brake. So inside, you are actually looking at the post-war modification. - this includes the aiming device and the instrument panel camera shots, those were refitted Swiss devices, not the original German ones (so again, sort of pointless to make a picture of) Overall, it was good – I guess. Why on earth would they make a duplicate video of (much superior) Chieftain's Hatch video on Jagdpanzer 38t (can be seen here – part 1 and part 2), I have no idea (unlike Challenger, Chieftain actually had a real restored Jagdpanzer 38t to describe along with the original engine. Very, very rare.)

Another convulsion
OnThursday 24 April I had another convulsion- this time lating 3 hours. It just didn't ever seem to stop. Tody i m still sore all over from it. I ended up in hospital siting in a horrible wet, cold smelly pool of urine being offered lunch at the end of it all. The poblem was that the nurses put the lunch at the foot of the bed so I couldn't get to it. They didn't answer he bell when I rang. There were no utensils for eating it so when I eventually managed to get the tray close enouh to me to eat, I had to scoop the food into my mouth with my urine saturted hands. I have vowed never o go back to the Vincent pallotti hopitl again. I would rather die first, and i mean that literally. My brain is getting worse every day and sems to be disintrgaing now. i am not in contrpol any more. For me it is hoible feeling.

I worked on Osha and learned thing like the Osha Act of 1960. I also learn the safety of procoutions that need to be followed.
I finished a Osha lesson today and learned about the safety needs that need to be followed to keep everyone in the building safe.
Today I worked with Ana and were experimenting with the snap circuits and learned to see what they do that way we can make something bigger and cooler.
Today we were experimenting with this fan I figured out that for some reason when we fan has the lights on the air dose not go towards you but away. When you put it the other way the light turn of and the air goes towards you.
Today we got this thing and after countless trys I figured out what it dose it measures the volts it has.

That was what Winter Haven police Chief Paul Goward wanted to know. And it was that question -- in an e-mail -- that sparked a controversy at the Police Department and forced Goward to resign this week.
That was what Winter Haven police Chief Paul Goward wanted to know. And it was that question -- in an e-mail -- that sparked a controversy at the Police Department and forced Goward to resign this week.
Goward, who has been Winter Haven's police chief for about two years, said city management gave no other specific reasons why he needed to leave the department, and he had no alternative but to resign.
"It's true that the e-mail, the nature of it and its content was specifically mentioned as the reason," he said Wednesday.
Goward said he did not intend to offend employees when he sent the e-mail Oct. 11, which was titled "ARE YOU A `JELLY BELLY'?"
"As I look around the department I see a disconcerting number of us that appear physically challenged with obesity and/or a general lack of physical fitness," Goward wrote in the e-mail.
He then listed several reasons why employees should not be overweight, including the fact they "are a poor image representation of the profession," "are not combat ready and cannot defend yourself properly against a fit suspect," and "are actually, or appear to be, lazier than a fit officer."
Goward continued: "So, take a good look at yourself. If you are unfit, do yourself and everyone else a favor. See a professional (Health Concepts) about a proper diet and a fitness training program (we do have a work out room), quit smoking, limit alcohol intake and start thinking self pride, confidence and respectability."
Goward ended the e-mail by writing, "Don't mean to offend, this is just straight talk. I owe it to you!"
City officials received two brief complaints about Goward's e-mail, both of which are anonymous.
In one letter, the writer said, "I have worked for the Police Department as an officer for a long time and I have never seen such a morale problem like there is and this letter from the Chief of Police is the `icing on the cake.' We as members and employees within our department are very upset to say the least."
The writer said, "We will not identify ourselves in this letter due to the fear of retaliation."
The other complaint was a single sentence that said, "Is this the type of leader that you have working for the City of Winter Haven?"
Goward said he does not regret sending the e-mail to about 75 certified officers.
"I regret the outcome," he said. "I had no reason to expect that the reaction of the city manager on the basis of one anonymous letter could possibly come to this conclusion."
A telephone message left Wednesday for City Manager David Greene was not returned.
On Wednesday, Winter Haven spokeswoman Donna Sheehan announced that the city had appointed a new police chief, Mark Edward LeVine, who formerly served as chief of police in Lake Wales.
LeVine has been a law-enforcement coordinator at Polk Community College since 2004. He will earn $85,010 a year in his new role.

Editor's note: Today we'd like to take the opportunity to introduce you to our VTS colleagues at the Center for Anglican Communion Studies.
As educators here at Virginia Theological Seminary we seek to give people deeper and richer visions of God. To have a monocultural vision of God is to have a deficient vision of God. Yet, many American Episcopalians only have a tenuous sense of belonging to any wider church entity beyond the shores of the United States.
The Center for Anglican Communion Studies (CACS), seeks to bring a world perspective to the experience of seminarians, VTS friends and alums, and the parishes they serve. We seek to promote deeper "community in the Communion." We seek faithfully to represent the lives and ministries of Anglicans across the world with whom the U.S. Episcopal Church enjoys many long-standing and rich ties and relationships but whose stories rarely make it into the news. Our new video will give you the essence of our vision and practice.
So, how is our mission relevant to a Christian formation professional or volunteer in an American parish?
The short, but maybe too indirect, answer is that seminarians are of course largely destined to become future parish leaders. The Center's three imperatives—to reflect, to resource, and to reconcile—guide a whole range of activities that impact the time future Episcopal leaders spend in training here at Virginia Seminary.
Almost subversively, we in CACS are determined to disrupt and discomfort those easy assumptions that can accumulate around mission and outreach, around relationships with companion parishes, and around the "we" and "them" in the assumed "them and us" configuration.
We want to ensure that seminarians are confronted with the reality that the majority face of Anglicanism, the family to which Episcopalians belong, is female and African—and that bonds of affection tie U.S. parishes to African, Asian, and South American parishes in the love of Christ in ways that are always transformative if we choose to engage.
Depending on staffing levels at your church, you may be called on to prepare youth for mission trips, to advocate Lenten and Advent programs through Episcopal Relief and Development or Episcopal Migration Ministries, or to plan a formation hour with a visitor from a companion diocese. Though these can all be done with domestic resources, we maintain that an understanding and appreciation for the breadth of Anglican family ties across the world will ensure that your teaching is enriched and enlivened by new perspectives.
For instance, CACS strives to serve as a resource for exploring best practices for international immersions for parishes and other groups. The work of our center also engages future clergy and those already ordained and serving in a reflection on the focus and centrality of mission.
We do not have shelves, virtual or physical, filled with ready-packaged resources to hand to you for the coming week's lesson. What we do have is the persistence to insist and encourage you to persevere in the messy business of cross-border relationship and encounter, the transformative power of fellowship beyond the familiarity of your comfort zone.
We can point to resources and stories and invite you to realize that, though from a different perspective, they are all within "your tradition," not outside it. The discovery of this diversity and richness of Anglican family can be transformative at every turn.
CACS provides exposure to fresh perspectives for the church's role in the world. From our international student program to the wide variety of cross-cultural education programs offered through the seminary, CACS works to build leaders for the church who can serve the church as a whole.
From conferences in Turkey, in Tanzania, or right here in Alexandria, CACS is also a resource for interfaith and intercultural dialogues you may wish to build in your community. We invite you to watch our video, and learn more about what the Center for Anglican Communion Studies is doing already, and what we can bring to your ministry.
Members of the CACS team are open to addressing conferences, workshops and retreats, responding to individual requests for information, and brainstorming with you in your context. We also maintain a mailing list to alert you to events here at the seminary, some of which are live-streamed. We'd be happy to hear from you.

A couple of days ago, driving into my housing complex, I got stuck behind a Ferrari F40. I was in a hurry to get home and the Ferrari was trundling along at a slow pace – in fact there was quite a queue building up behind us. After honking my horn a couple of times (bad form, I know, but how often do you get to pick on a Ferrari driver?) I overtook him and left him eating my dust.
I drive a clunky Daihatsu jeep with an engine about an eighth of the size of the F40. The only reason I was able to overtake it was because it was driving so slowly. The driver was going so slowly because the roads of Indonesia – even in a nice area – are littered with foot-deep potholes and randomly placed rocks. That's probably why people drive jeeps and not ground-hugging supercars.
Also this week I have been working with my high school economics students on a variety of Web2.0 tools including Wikis at the wonderful wetpaint.com. Our web access (or wireless network) let me down a few times and a couple of the lessons were close to being write-offs as my students stared blankly while screens took ten minutes to load.
In my frustration, I started feeling a little like the Ferrari driver. Here I was with this amazing new tool that I just wanted to open up and let rip with in the classroom and I was hampered by the infrastructure. (Internet access in Indonesia is often slow and unreliable). In fact, it got to a stage where a lesson plan based around a photocopied handout (the educational equivalent of a clunky old jeep) could outperform my carefully crafted multimedia-based lesson.
Fortunately, I have not had to give up my hopes of basing my lessons around Web 2.0 technology. Subsequent discussions have led to an upgrade both in our broadband connections and our internal wireless network that we will be taking for a test drive over the next few weeks.
My dreams of hitting 200mph in the classroom are not dead yet…

This week several of our regulars are out of town so we had a much smaller crowd at Game Night but it was still enough for a few good games.
While we waited for others to arrive we played a quick round of Liar's Dice and from there we moved on to Mall of Horror, a game about zombies invading a shopping mall (of all things). Mall is definitely not my favorite game but it was fun enough. Players have three character tokens, worth varying points and each with slightly different game advantages. On each turn, players simultaneously choose which of six rooms they want to move a character to. Then a number of zombies randomly appear. If the characters are strong enough to hold the zombies at bay at each room then they're fine but eventually the zombies will overrun a room and some body's going to be eaten. The players in that room all vote on which character will be shoved out the door to become zombie-chow. That's basically the game. It's all about deal making really. Darryl and I had a good pact going for the first half of the game where we alternately voted for each other each turn to decide which character got the life-saving items found in the parking lot. About half way through the game I made a poor decision about which character to move and found myself down a man. Shortly thereafter my pact with Darryl fell apart but by then it was enough to ensure Darryl clinched the victory. It's a decent game and I'd be willing to play it again but I don't think I'd go out of my way to do so.
After last week's Fury of Dracula game, Adam was itching to play Scotland Yard so I brought that in and we played it. Reversing last week's description: Scotland Yard is a lot like Fury of Dracula but without the random events and fighting. It distills the hunters and hunted theme into its bare essence. The game is played on a map of London that is overlaid with a huge network of bus lines, underground lines, and taxi lines. On each turn "Mr. X" secretly moves from one stop to another. The detectives (everybody else) are told which form of transportation he used but not where he is. Every few turns Mr. X must reveal his location. The detectives then scramble to get to the area and form a dragnet. If a detective can ever manage to get to the same location as Mr. X, they win the game. If Mr. X can manage to evade the detectives for a certain number of turns, then he wins. We played twice. Mike K. was Mr. X both times and both times we caught him although the second game he did much better and nearly slipped away.
While we were playing our first game of Scotland Yard, Chris and Darryl played Lord of the Rings - The Confrontation. This is a great little two player game that plays a lot like Stratego on steroids. If you're looking for a good two-player strategy game that plays quickly and has a lot of Tolkien flavor this would be a good choice.
After the second game of Scotland Yard I went home to watch the Brazil and Croatia match that I'd recorded earlier in the day. It was a good match. Croatia put up a great fight and could have won but Brazil scored the only goal despite looking a little bit off their form. Hopefully they'll shake off whatever malaise is gripping them before their next match. I expect better ball from the Seleção.

Both Ann and Zoe are doing well and are healthy. I didn't manage to pack the USB cable for the camera,so you'll all need to wait for pictures. We'll at the hospital until monday or so, then we'll be back home.

For some unknown reason, this just showed up in my RSS reader again. I was briefly concerned we had another kid with the same name. That would ahve been confusing.
I was confused for a second, too! Then I thought maybe you just wanted to be able to yell, "Zoe!" out the front door and have all your kids coming. 🙂

BARCELONA and REDWOOD CITY, California – February 15, 2010 – SEVEN®, today announced the general availability of PingTM, a set of packaged services for mobile operators and device manufacturers to "push enable" messaging, social networking and mobile applications on superphones, smartphones and mass-market devices. Ping is powered by System SEVEN, the industry's leading mobile push platform already deployed with great success on hundreds of device models and proven to reliably scale to millions of users.
SEVEN has taken a mobile cloud computing approach to Ping. This allows the company to efficiently provide push applications such as email, instant messaging, social networking, and any application that needs to be connected to or exchange data with the cloud, to mass market devices, including lower-end feature phones, smartphones and next-generation super-phones. With Ping, SEVEN is opening its platform to partners and customers enabling them to take full advantage of the SEVEN push and synchronization technology. The SEVEN platform and Ping bring significant efficiencies in wireless data synchronization: savings in precious battery life; reduction of the cost of service delivery; superior user experience; and optimization of data traffic on the network, which in some instances represent the majority of an operator's traffic.
"From the get-go, we envisioned a mobile world beyond pure voice and messaging, and hence designed our System SEVEN platform to support all forms of data, not just email," said Trevor Fiatal, CTO and co-founder of SEVEN. "Doing so has given us the scalability to meet global customer needs – whether for traditional messaging such as email or for newer trends such as today's high-growth social networking applications. We believe that this foresight and experience in building a push-enabled network that can easily grow as new mobile markets mature has been and will continue to be a key advantage for SEVEN over our competitors."
With the SEVEN platform and Ping services, any device and any application on the device can now benefit from robust push and synchronization mechanisms that are critical to avoiding the overhead of directly and constantly polling multiple data sources from the handset, and are a must to preserve the device's battery life. The support for push notifications and background synchronization are relevant to all aspects of a mobile device from messaging, social networking and contacts, to the calendar, camera, location, caller ID, media player, and more.
Ping 1.0 is already in use by SEVEN and several of its partners. SEVEN is continuing to expand the breadth of the product offering over the coming months. SEVEN is conducting demos of Ping-powered mobile applications at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in Stand AV31 on a variety of manufacturers' devices. Ping has been shortlisted by GSMA for the Best Mobile Service Delivery Platform award, which will be announced during the Mobile World Congress.
For more information, follow SEVEN on Twitter at www.twitter.com/SEVEN_networks
SEVEN® is the leading provider of push-enabled mobile email and messaging solutions for mass market devices. The company is the first to provide wireless operators and device manufacturers with an integrated mobile platform that allows them to simplify the delivery of mobile data, applications, and services to a broad portfolio of devices. With services powered by SEVEN, operators and device manufacturers can increase customer loyalty and give subscribers access to the email and messaging services of their choice on the device of their choice. SEVEN's push-enabled email services are in production in 14 languages including English, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Arabic and Finnish, among others. Today, SEVEN runs on more than 550 device models across six operating platforms.
SEVEN is headquartered in Redwood City, California, with offices around the globe. For more information, visit www.seven.com.

Spatio-Temporal Patterns and Source Identification of Water Pollution in Lake Taihu (China)
AbstractVarious multivariate methods were used to analyze datasets of river water quality for 11 variables measured at 20 different sites surrounding Lake Taihu from 2006 to 2010 (13,200 observations), to determine temporal and spatial variations in river water quality and to identify potential pollution sources. Hierarchical cluster analysis (CA) grouped the 12 months into two periods (May to November, December to the next April) and the 20 sampling sites into two groups (A and B) based on similarities in river water quality characteristics. Discriminant analysis (DA) was important in data reduction because it used only three variables (water temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO) and five-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5)) to correctly assign about 94% of the cases and five variables (petroleum, volatile phenol, dissolved oxygen, ammonium nitrogen and total phosphorus) to correctly assign >88.6% of the cases. In addition, principal component analysis (PCA) identified four potential pollution sources for Clusters A and B: industrial source (chemical-related, petroleum-related or N-related), domestic source, combination of point and non-point sources and natural source. The Cluster A area received more industrial and domestic pollution-related agricultural runoff, whereas Cluster B was mainly influenced by the combination of point and non-point sources. The results imply that comprehensive analysis by using multiple methods could be more effective for facilitating effective management for the Lake Taihu Watershed in the future. View Full-Text

When the first generations of digital print engines came to market, there was a lot of excitement and speculation surrounding what it would all mean to publishing, how profound of an impact it would make on how books, magazines, newspapers and other types of ink-on-paper publications were made. The technologies back then were little more than amped-up office copier/printers, but they were quick to evolve and today's digital print systems are much closer to rivaling offset. And digital printing has its unique and compelling attributes, too—attributes that newspaper organizations may soon find invaluable.

This weekend I attended the Longines Global Championship Tour in my hometown of Miami Beach Florida. This is the second year that I have attended this event, but this year was special. I was granted photography press credentials which got me
VIP access to these gorgeous athletes.
That meant I got up close and personal with those riders and horses. I got some pretty spectacular photos but there was one thing this year that wasn't pleasant. Brace yourselves. There was no alcohol being served at all at the event! That means no champagne, wine or mixed drinks. So what was I to do? The solution was of course
to stay home in comfortable clothes in the air conditioning and stream it live on the television, in the comfort of my own home.
I decided to open a very special bottle of white wine while I enjoyed watching the horse show. The wine the question is none other than Gary Farcell 2011 Chardonnay from the Russian River Valley. The truth is I have been eyeing this particular wine for over two years, so when I got the notice that I was being sent a bottle to review, well
let's just say I jumped for joy. Chardonnay is one of my favorite wines, if you didn't know it already and this one is on the top of my list of favorites I have ever tried. With a strong built body and smooth texture and flavors that will wake up your senses. The flavors are
toffee, butterscotch, with a hint of vanilla and ginger. I tried this wine
while watching the horse show and enjoying a Caprese salad.

Will social networking work in risk management?
End of 08, when the crisis was showing its worst fear and we all were simmering in the lay-off storm, my partner in Infosys consulting who also heads GRC practice asked me a pertinent question - " Will social networking work in risk management?" Being a devoted risk practitioner, my immediate counter question was - "do we have a valid business case?" I was all in the negative of the existence of this concept in risk world. Social network / commerce etc was to me the world of facebook, twitter and at max it has relevance to the realm of wealth management. Risk mgmt, a blunt "NO". But I was wrong.....
Economy has just traversed one year from rock-bottom and here I am raising my arms in support of social commerce in risk space. Few days back, I happened to come across this discussion in one of the risk conferences where emminent panelist, from industry & consulting, were gungho on promoting this concept. As rightly said- "There is a silver lining". Present crisis has not only aggravated due to silly risk mitigation, but has also pushed firms to better it, optimize it, improve it. And one such path would be to understand not only oneself more, but also understand the neighbour better via social networking. Yes of course, it's all about knowing the risk of the neighbour.
Social networking among risk managers helps achieving following things:-
- Best practice sharing- Citi does not need to know the exposure level or liquidity state of JPMC, but it does make sense to have Citi risk manager discussing the risk frameworks, controls with JPMC manager. Remember this crisis has clearly shown how vulnerable a company would be in a stressed condition (evenif it's financialy solvent) if its contemporary in same industry is doing a risky business which catapults to systemic imbalance and subsequently massive retraction. Sharing best practice is no more a option, it's a culture financial market definitely needs and that can be achieved effectively with social networking. One of my previous blog posting last year was also highlighting same thought.
- Systemic risk understanding - Another great admisssion from present global meltdown is the proliferation of risk across geographies & markets with the formation of contagion- in nutshell the systemic risk. Everybody wanted a pie of the sub-standard mortgage bubble - either directly or indirectly. That bubble turned to tornado and all swept away. A Glodman never prioratized to know what Morgan Stanley betting on and so as Citi to B of A. There are risks which go beyond enterprise risk program. That's when organization have to understand each other - X shoud try to gauge the risk situation of Y, otherwise it's quite possible that Y may kill X at certain point. So to understand systemic risk, risk managers should chat around table or within social network mediums. A medium leveraging modern information technology infrastructure would help bridging geographies among risk community- a Deutsch Bank market risk manager, stationed at Singapore, can always take a cue from a Goldman counterpart at NYC.
There is always a ROI if financial institutions, for the sake of effective risk mgmt, promote & create social networking medium for risk managers and I believe there is an alternate route if non-profit organizations like GARP, PRMIA, SIFMA take this as one of their prime initiatives in this turbulent period.
So, do we really need social networking in risk functioning - my vote will be yes, let me know your stand.

[Jesus] entered Jericho and was passing through. And there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich. And he was seeking to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was small of stature. So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him...
Luke 19:1-4
See More HimHT: Be Transformed
by Flame
I wanna see more of Him
Cause I'm sick of more of me
I'm a be like Zacchae
In that Sycamore tree
I wanna see more of Him
Cause I'm sick of more of me
Lord I promise (I promise) I promise
Prior to Jesus' life death and re-re-Resurrection
Having any affect on me left me in deception
Because the God of this world Satan blinded my mind
From seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of God
But then a miracle happened
We-we call it conversion
He opened the eyes of my blind heart and led me to worship
Gotta a peek at His beauty as He opened the crack
That captivated my nature and kept me coming back
He gave me taste buds to taste of freedom to love
And to delight in His loving kindness through Jesus' blood
And every since repentance I done been on this chase
To drink from this freedom fountain through His infinite grace
Namely seeking His face
Cause He removed the veil
Knocked me off my high horse and removed the scales
Now I've been exposed to His glorious light
That shines into the darkness in my heart and I'm like...
Though I'm a Christian my vision sometimes even get blurred
When I'm resisting His visits and not reading His Word
Desperate need to be purged
Easy to lose the wonder
Through these daily distractions banging louder than thunder
When I devalue my Savior and start treasuring trash
And longing for mud patches thinking it's greener grass
Exchanging eternal pleasures for the ones that's going to pass
Looking for 'em to satisfy but they lie never last
When captivated and activated by my deceitful lust
Is a lack of faith in my Father's grace and I need to place my trust
In everything that my Father is and everything that He supplied
Through the perfect life of His Son
Death and resurrection of Christ
And I know I got to trust Him
All this sin I got to trust Him
World that we in I got to trust Him
How I'm going to live if I just brush Him
Knowing that my heart is mad disgusting
Knowing that the Father had to crush
Yes just so we can be free
Please give me eyes to see
See I'm reminded in my mind in my brother Zacchaeus
Who took some desperate measures just so that He could see Jesus
As joy accompanied the faith that He felt in his soul
That made me question myself, how far am I willing to go?
What am I willing to get rid of so I can get close?
And closer and closer Lord, fill me with Your Holy Ghost
Pour out Your Spirit empower me in increasing measures
To see Your uniqueness instead of these fleet-fleeting pleasures
Give me greater capacities to suffer and to carry
This cross on my back as I walk to my personal Calvary
And climb on the cross oh Lord as I stretch out my arms
Quoting the Psalms as they banging them nails in my palms
Until I die cause I was crucified with my Savior
And resurrected now I can reflect it in my behavior
A new nature to taste and savor Jesus the Christ
Who brought me out of the darkness to His marvelous light

June 17 from Portland OR
During this session we told of ADP experiences on our campuses.
Melanie Marks told us she had been given 20 to 25 K as a budget and they had a campus civic-engagement project competition. She was a winner of about 5k and with that she took six students and two other faculty members to Slavakia and other Eastern European countries for travel study. She (and I think
Melanie Blumberg had Donna Brazile (Al Gore's campaign manager in 2000) at California of PA and she said she did not cost that much and she was terrific. They also sent students to campaign consulting workshop in
Gene Hatfield (
The NY Times will be donating 300 t-shirts for our conference, they will send a speaker and they will help sponsor our awards.
As for our Saturday session, we have decided to ask questions that will organize a round-table discussion. One question Jackie suggested was:
When you think about your campus ADP what is the biggest type of support you are missing?
I have also thought of these questions:
Thinking back over this last year, what ADP events would you submit to be showcased at our Nov 11 and 12th meeting?
Other than you, can you identify a handful of people (students, administrators, faculty) that have been helpful to ADP? How are they currently being honored, recognized?
What contribution do you think you could make to ADP-South?
Those are some of the questions we might use. I am sure there are things I have left out, but it is nearly time for breakfast. Let the day begin!!

Prince Charles praised the strength of Albertans in light of the floods and expressed his admiration for Calgarians' ability to get back on the saddle so quickly and set the Stampede off on time.
"Coming so soon after the devastating floods which inundated Alberta last month, this has been a most testing time for Canadians and our thoughts and sympathy are very much with the Canadian people," he said.
"However, seeing the quite extraordinary efforts which have led to the Calgary Stampede being opened on time this weekend, it is only too clear how courageous and resourceful Canadians are and we have nothing but the greatest admiration for such determination and resilience in the face of terrible adversity," he added.
The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall shared their thoughts with Canadians, who have been left reeling following the floods and the Lac-Mégantic explosion, in a letter circulated by David Johnston, Governor General of Canada.
The couple was moved by the disaster in Quebec, which saw a train carrying crude oil speed out of control over the weekend and explode in the centre of Lac-Mégantic, killing 15 and leaving approximately 50 people missing.
""I wanted you to know how deeply my wife and I feel for the people of the Québécois community of Lac-Mégantic who are suffering from the appalling disaster which has engulfed their town ," the letter reads.
"We can only begin to imagine what they are going through and our hearts go out to all those who have been affected by such a dreadful tragedy."

Ah, I remember Ocean Beach from my 9 years living in the SF Bay Area. The sunsets were breathtaking. I still miss it. Thanks for posting these excellent photos and bringing back some fond memories.
Twin Peaks & Ocean Beach: Wednesday 21 March (365.360° Day 241)
Heading up the hill to take in the panoramic views from Twin Peaks seemed the ideal way to spend our final morning with the hire car (wouldn't have fancied walking up one little bit!)
Afterwards we headed out to Ocean Beach for lunch and a wander on the sands in the sun before the inevitable San Francisco fog closed in rendering a trek up to Baker Beach to see views of the Golden Gate utterly pointless – with visibility way under 100m we couldn't see a thing.
An evening seeing SF Ballet and some cocktails with friends wrapped off a smashing final day in the city by the bay.
Looking out from Twin Peaks to downtown San Francisco.

How to Connect Nexus 7 to Mac OS X
I have a computer running Mac OS X and want to move my music and pictures files on my Nexus 7 tablet. How can I transfer files from Nexus 7 to Mac?
* Use a USB cable to connect the tablet and computer via USB ports. Then you will see a store drive on Mac, go into it to transfer files.
* If it is not working, you need to download the free Android File Transfer app from www.android.com/filetransfer, and install it. Open the app, connect the devices using a USB cable. Then Android File Transfer app will offers a Finder window to drag files to or from it.

On a personal note, my efforts as clergy have always been very limited and are now completely at a stop. I apparently no longer have another clergy person that I can consult for my own needs, and therefore cannot meet my own requirements.
In a more cheerful development, I put the spokes into my bicycle wheel today. I think they need tuning, and I cannot find a tiny fitting that goes on the Presta valve of my tube, but having the spokes in place is real progress. I know ways to accomplish the tuning and to replace the tube.
I'll take the wheel to the co-op Saturday if that works out and get it tuned. If I can, I'll also get another tube with the right kind of valve (Schrader valve).
The humidity seems not as bad as it was in August. That's definitely a good development. I can do things even though the temperature continues high. We have little or no wind the past few days, which mystifies me. When does this part of Ohio not have wind?
I'm not getting as much done as I'd like, but I made my way to Aldi's this evening before the meeting and bought a dozen eggs for my next try at cooking. As I headed for the bus stop on my way home, my ankle turned. That rarely causes me a serious injury, but sometimes I have to take a fall to keep my weight off the ankle. I feel especially grateful not to have gone down tonight because those eggs would have made a serious mess in my backpack.
I'm up very late for me writing this due to insomnia, which is unusual these days. All the same, I think I've written enough for now. Take care of yourselves.

`Batteries not included" are the three words that resonate in the soul of every techno gadget tinkerer since the first hand-held calculator was released. In this era of Internet, MP3 and wireless everything, the old "red-eyed" calculator simply won't cut it this holiday season. There are new tech toys out there that are sure to be on someone's wish list.
When it comes to a compact portable MP3 player, the Nomad II MP3 Player from Creative Labs is among the best. It comes with a SmartMedia Card slot that can hold a 64-megabyte flash card. That's about three CDs of music. In addition to that, the unit comes with an FM radio, a great pair of headphones, a USB port for speedy music transfer from your computer, and a remote control. It has a voice recorder too ($279).

I wanted to say a few more words about my purpose in running this blog and trying to have some kind of update every weekday. My problem, as a researcher, tends to not be lack of ideas or motivation but mostly related to my, pretty serious, mental illness and just general belief that I have nothing worth saying. I've been in grad school for four years now and, well, while I've actually done quite a bit of work my publication record is nonexistant. That's pretty bad for a potential career, isn't it.
I have a history of filling notebooks full of ideas, proofs, sketches of projects and when it's basically done shoving it all onto a shelf because I've convinced myself it's all stupid and pointless and probably completely wrongheaded anyway. Of course, the embarassing part is that over the years I've done this and seen papers come out on the same topic a year or two later which, strangely, feeds my own belief that I have no ability to contribute as a researcher and why am I bothering anyway if I'm just going to muck it all up.
Well, that all sounds pretty dire and depressing doesn't it? That's where having a project like this comes in. I'm using it force myself, in baby steps, to share publicly what I'm reading, and thinking, and working on. Every post I make here is helping me get over all the tracks I play on loop in my head telling me that I have nothing worth sharing. Every time someone reads what I've written and the world doesn't suddenly end in fire, it makes me feel a little safer trying to be a part of the larger research community. Every day that goes by, I'm practicing sharing my voice and convincing myself that it's okay that I do so.
That's all pretty personal to share, I suppose, but it was important to me to be honest about why I'm doing this so that it makes sense. I hope I can educate others, exchange ideas, and get other people excited by what I'm excited about but in the end this is an entirely selfish project to help me succeed in academics.

I'm trying to be
anything you asked for and more,
For a minute
I thought I could make you happier
I won't let you go
faster and faster
I run, I run for you
for you I run everyday
Lie down
lay your head on my chest
let me hold you tight
the future seems so distant
but you can feel with your fingertips
my heart is beating faster
no I wouldn't let you down.
I promise you that.
Are we floating in the air?
I told you a thousand times
I love you just a little too much
The smoke of your cigarette
On naked shoulders
your beautiful skin
my red lips tell you it's over
No flowers, no unicorns, no blue sky
It was supposed to be an endless dream
but I have to go now
In a little while
I'll be gone
but I have to go now
In a little while
I'll be gone

Sleeping Betty
The story of Sleeping Beauty was such a big hit that it left very little room for other sleeping dudes and damsels to receive their due recognition, which is a shame because Beauty's story was booooooring.
Now if you wanna watch an exciting animated story about a sleeping gal, one starring kooky characters full of visual verve and a sketchy animation style that's outta sight you've gotta watch Sleeping Betty- a totally hand-drawn animated short by Claude Cloutier, released by The National Film Board of Canada in 2007. It's anything but a snoozefest!

I have never prayed for a better experience, but this I have set my sight to see, and my mind to picture, Jesus walking to the cross in victory, and dying in victory and He resurrecting by the power of the Holy Ghost in Victory. That I crave to understand. Oh, what a wonderful experience! It is more than dancing or crying… It is Grace being released to man to walk the way to death, and be raised in righteousness unto the Lord. Grace and Truth I seek. Mercy would not let me stray away.
When all was gain for me, I count it loss. When all was profit to me, I count it loss. These I seek to become, The son of God whose manifestation is to come. My best achievement is my chiefest distraction. My greatest earthly quest is my biggest problems. Yet, I hear my Lord say to my Lord, sit at my right hand until I make your enemy your footstool. I have laboured to get the victory, yet, I hear my Lord say, rest in me for the battle is mine. All you need do is rest. The world has thought me to pursue the world with my faith. Yes, my faith. That also I must submit to God for I must not live by my faith but by the Faith of the son. The son doesn't seek His own glory He tells me. The victory of the son, is the victory of the Father. Let God arise and His enemies be scattered. I lay down my faith so I can lay hold on His faith. I lay down my crown, so I can lay hold on His crown. I lay down my victories and achievements so, I can lay hold on His. At the end, it won't be about me, but all about Him. I lay down my life, so you can have it all.

Gloucester City's Ollie Barnes: Big in Hungary
On Saturday October 16th 2010 a young defender called Ollie Barnes scored for Gloucester City, firing home a free kick from about 35 yards out, easily beating the Harrogate Town goalkeeper. Nothing too interesting there you might say. Non-league football, especially a mid-table Blue Square Bet North match, is a bit specialist, isn't it? Surely Zlatan Ibrahimovic, or Cristiano Ronaldo, or Lionel Messi, scored a better goal.
Well yes, except for the fact that more people in Hungary have watched the YouTube clip of Barnes' goal than they have in the UK.
In fact, the views for the video are more than ten times that of the gate on Saturday, at 325 the fourth lowest in the league that day.
Have a look at the clip – ok it's a good goal but…well, have a look.
Hungarian blog Nemzetisport has declared it a goal which will ensure Ollie Barnes goes down in the club history (ish – my translation skills are iffy at best). Meanwhile French site Horsjeu has had more than 600 views.
Now, it could be one of two things:
1.It really is quite a good goal, for a defender who hasn't started many games and who has been injured, and wouldn't normally be second let alone first choice to take free kicks
2.The slightly bonkers commentary provided by the two Gloucester City fans
No offence to Ollie but going from the comments on the French site I expect it's reason number two, although although it's impossible to rule out a 'Norman Wisdom-in-Albania style' following in Hungary.
Still it is rare treat to have Gloucester City talked about (in football circles) on a global stage. The last time was for this.

The comment from Sheri L:
People should respect one another above all else share love and feel love for everyone. This type of disrespect is no different than racial hate. Targeting one group of people in this manner can be considered a hate crime.
"In both crime and law, hate crime (also known as bias-motivated crime) is a usually violent, prejudice motivated crime that occurs when a perpetrator targets a victim because of his or her perceived membership in a certain social group. Examples of such groups include but are not limited to: ethnicity, gender identity, disability, language, nationality, physical appearance, religion, or sexual orientation.[1][2][3] Non-criminal actions that are motivated by these reasons are often called "bias incidents".
"Hate crime" generally refers to criminal acts that are seen to have been motivated by bias against one or more of the types above, or of their derivatives. Incidents may involve physical assault, damage to property, bullying, harassment, verbal abuse or insults, or offensive graffiti or letters (hate mail).[4]
A hate crime law is a law intended to deter bias-motivated violence. Hate crime laws are distinct from laws against hate speech in that hate crime laws enhance the penalties associated with conduct that is already criminal under other laws, while hate speech laws criminalize a category of speech."

I am the queen of this house
If I'm not happy, u better buzz off
I am the queen bee.
Okay, if I'm the queen why am I
Cooking, cleaning and running thus castle?
Quiet time.
Every mother needs a bit of quiet time. No, I'm not talking about the tine you hide in the bathroom. I am talking legit quiet time. Tine to reflect, time to pray, time to get mentally prepared. I take this time in the mornjng, or late at night depending in the day. For example currently my little one goes back to down after my SO, and bug kids are off to school. This is my quiet time. My time to use as I wish. I don't usually spend it doing chores just because there is plenty of other tine for that. I use it to mentally prepare for what the day will entail. To say my prayers, and just to be quiet with my coffee.
When do you find your quiet time? What do you do?

Men have dominated the lead role category in nearly every film you've ever watched so I figure it is time to change it up a bit and show some of these awesome ladies their rightful praises. I also want you guys to have a clarification that this list is not for just leading ladies (even though most of them are), but any female movie character I personally find has/will test the dawn of time as the best female characters in cinema.
Remember, this is a personal list of female characters I like the most. It is not based solely on performance or who is acting, but the lasting impact these characters had on me. The main criteria is that they are female characters.
10. Clarice Starling (Silence of the Lambs – 1991)
What makes such a great character is that she vulnerable, but still able to hold her own in one of the most iconic films of all time. Jodie Foster gives a performance that can withstand the Oscar-winning performance by Anthony Hopkins and proves that women are needed in law enforcement of all levels because sometimes you can't send a man to do a woman's job.
9. Tiffany Maxwell (Silver Linings Playbook – 2012)
Jennifer Lawrence is one of the most incredible actresses of our time and it was when she played the layered and complicated Tiffany Maxwell in David O. Russell's film that I found her to be the most engaging. Sure Katniss Everdeen is one of her most popular roles and rightfully so, but I found to be the most enthralled by her performance in this particular film which she then won the Oscar for.
8. Princess Leia Organa (Star Wars – 1977-present)
I like because she's feisty! Though I will confidently admit she has some annoying characteristics about her which make her come off whiny in certain scenes, but she is independent, actually gets sh** done and isn't just some damsel in distress and in some scenes out does anyone she is around and all this makes her iconic.
7. Dorothy Gale (The Wizard of Oz – 1939)
It kills me that I actually know people who don't like the Wizard of Oz. They're those types of people who are like "OH the flying monkeys are scary!" you know what I'm talking about? Well, Dorothy played by Judy Garland is one of my favorite roles for one of my all-time favorite films and one of the best films ever made. Her supporting cast hall of fame worthy, but it doesn't work without her to play off of.
6. Furiosa (Mad Max: Fury Road – 2015)
You might all be wondering why so soon to put her on this list, but guess what? Fury Road is arguably my favorite film of this entire year and Charlize Theron is showing why she is world-class. It makes no remarks to why she is as good as she is, they let her actions do the talking in this over the top, high-octane action film. She also has a metal arm and pulls of a buzz cut with no effort at all.
5. Hermione Granger (Harry Potter franchise 2001 – 2011)
Nothing would be what it is without Hermione Granger and Emma Watson's performance. She is secretly the star between two boys, but is endlessly likable and charming that we all cheered when she punched Draco Malfoy in the face with no issue at all. She comes up with the plans, executes the plans, and still has that gentle touch for when Harry and Ron are in their darkest and toughest places as wizards.
4. Mulan (Mulan – 1999)
I never said these characters needed to be live-action. Mulan is more or less the Ronda Rousey of China, but you know, is actually tolerable to watch in her movies (burn!). As she constantly takes on the challenge of being a soldier in a time when women were never even considered to be more than ornaments to their homes, she fought for her country and became an honored hero, and had some wickedly good songs along the way. I love me some Mulan.
3. Cheryl Strayed (Wild – 2014)
This film alone was one of my favorites of 2014 and will stay with me for as long as I am alive and for good reason. As a man, you can't fully comprehend the fear and turmoil of a woman from her perspective and when you see Reese Witherspoon so vulnerable along with versatile in this story of rediscovery and reawakening, you can't help but be taken in by the heartbreaking story along with Witherspoon's better effort if not her best.
2. Ripley (Alien franchise 1979-present)
Sigourney epitomizes bad-ass women in all the right ways and not only is a bonafide action star, but a Hollywood great for always commanding the scenes she is with an intensity that can only make you want to watch her and that's something she is born with. She kicks major booty, but also seems to stay sophisticated in every role she is recruited for and Ripley is one of those characters. She does science fiction better than any man or woman out there and has proven it time and time again and will proceed to do that in years to come.
1. The Bride (Kill Bill: Volume 1&2)
Quentin Tarantino brought us one of the most, not only iconic, but most developed and fun characters (not just female) of all time in his homage to Eastern cinema and the classic revenge film, Kill Bill. Not only is Uma Thurman near perfect in her performance as the revenge filled Bride, but she gives a lasting performance that goes beyond the yellow jump suit. The blood splattering violence and action is nothing this woman can't handle and she does it with a flair not many men could ever pull off by bringing a subtlety many women can bring to life and especially on the screen. She is also not afraid to take on any man or woman who has wronged her and overcome the barriers that block her towards her final goal in killing Bill.
Honorable Mentions:
I definitely know people will be shocked to not see classic roles like Holly from Breakfast at Tiffany's or Sarah Connor from The Terminator franchise, but this is my list, and these women are absolutely deserving to be on any other list including another list of my own. Also, anything Meryl Streep or Cate Blanchett has done would also likely have a place on another list along with the occasional Halle Berry role or most of Julianne Moore.
I'd LOVE to hear some of your favorite female film characters so let me know in the comments and tell me what you think of my list!

Dear Claire,
It has been 39 weeks now, and you have grown into my sweet little mini watermelon. What a joy it is to watch my tummy get bigger and bigger, feeling your legs and arms get longer and your body get plumper.
Your Daddy cannot wait for you to hurry up and be born! He has been ready for quite a while to meet you, Sweet Girl. I'm excited to meet you on the outside too, to find out who you are and what you are like. But I also want you to have plenty of time to grow and be healthy before you make your arrival.
No matter who you turn out to be, we already know you are a little ray of sunshine–our rainbow baby after the storm of miscarriage. We're so happy that you have a strong heart beat and are growing right on schedule. It will be so wonderful to bring you home and watch James become your big brother.
Daddy and I didn't know exactly what to expect when James was born, but God soon taught us the truth of James 1:17, " Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change." We anxiously await what He will teach us through you, dear Little One.
I love you so much,

This educator is making an excellent point. This at the Univ of Hawaii A&A Conference is iterated nicely.
Aquaponics is just the tip of the iceberg, an I'm not talking about lettuce, but I am, really I am. Aquaponics is suitable for green leafy plants and light feeders. To make a hydroponic or aquaponic system perform organically and with heavy feeding tomatoes, etc takes a living biosphere made up of fungal and bacterial micro organisms, nutrients and multiple growth factors from worm tea and castings. It is important to bring life on many levels of an ebb and flow grow system. It is great to see this trend picking up steam.
Next step is to increase the fertilitity even more by adding algae. This helps get off the grid, creating nymphs, larvae and zooplankton to the fish diet, derived on site from waste. And of course there is the growth media. Get into biochar, algae, zeolite and some secret sauce and your grow operation will literally come to life.
What's happening here is bioponics. Aquaponics is a part of it as is hydroponics. What makes bioponics different is the biodiversity of it all. The result is less effort, less cost, better tasting, more pleasing.

The Egyptian Ministry of Communications and Information Technology and Google announced today the launch of a program dedicated to empowering innovation and entrepreneurship as well as growing the mobile app developer community through training Egyptian youth and providing competitive calibers. The initiative aims to stimulate growth of tech startups and to avail job opportunities for the Egyptian youth.
The program will be led by the MCIT and Google along with other international and local educational stakeholders over the period of two years. The Middle East and North Africa region has one of the largest installed bases of smartphone users globally (75 million) which is expected to grow rapidly in the next three years. Usage of apps on mobile is also growing fast and this presents a big business opportunity for app developers in the region.
Minister of Communications and Information Technology, Eng. Atef Helmy, declared that we work to develop a strong digital society by building our youth capabilities and innovations in using modern technologies and entrepreneurship. This initiative implemented by MCIT in collaboration with Google as a model to strengthen &utilize the partnership with global competitive partners. Moreover it will support and embrace the innovation in developing mobile application among youth, where we see enormous potential in the Egyptian youth and therefore constantly keen to develop its capabilities
Mohamad Mourad, Regional Director for Google in the Middle East and North Africa region, said: We are very excited to launch this program in Egypt; it is one of our biggest initiatives in the country to date. We see enormous potential in the existing talent in Egypt and want to help develop the country's top mobile developers and put them on a fast-track to growth. We are eager to provide the platform, resources, mentorship and training that developers need to succeed.
The program will engage with Udacity, a global premier provider of online courses (Massive Online Open Courses -- MOOCs) aimed at unlimited participation and open access through the web. The Udacity platform will be localized along with select courses on mobile app development. Up to 2000 students will receive scholarships and will have access to dedicated coaches located in Egypt who will be trained by certified instructors in the US.
The initiative will focus on three areas:
Scalable education: This stage includes localizing the Udacity platform and coaching students, as well as conducting road shows and building mentorship communities through student support networks. The Udacity platform and the courses available will remain open to all Arabic-speaking developers in the region in perpetuity. Students who successfully complete the Android Development Fundamentals course will be course-certified and will receive a bonus..
Top talent nurturing: This stage includes developing an advanced curriculum for top students, awarding individuals and team performers, and connecting them with incubators, investors and mentors. Competitions will also be held to identify the most promising developers and startups, with more than ten startups and 12 individuals to receive monetary prizes.
Career facilitation: This stage includes developing a matchmaking platform which connects students with potential employers and the developer community, as well as organizing CV/interview clinics and career fairs.
Mobile usage has seen positive growth in Egypt, with people using their smartphones for a wide range of activities such as browsing, gaming, communication, etc. with a large part of their time spent on apps (84% globally). Third-party studies show that 60% of smartphone users in Egypt are online daily with their devices and half of these users play online games.

It is hot. When I exit the heavenly air conditioning of my apartment, I feel a thick, sticky wall of heat and humidity smack my face. I am going to go through a gallon of hair gel and hair spray in a month, as I try naively to tame the beast. The weather is rude and needs to leave.
The only nice thing about this weather is the tanning opportunities. My roommate, Bonnie, and I checked out the pool today and tried to enjoy this extreme heat.
Had my Housing meeting today, going over the rules of living here. Our hour+ meeting could've been summed up with a simple "Don't be stupid. Don't do illegal things. Be nice." But I guess they need to spell out every rule to be safe. Maybe people make stupid decisions because the heat has melted their brain? I don't know….
Do you have any suggestions for coping with this heat? Let me know in the comments!

The musings, rambling blog entries, humor, life, political opinions, observations, personal and spiritual beliefs, tasty treats and other writings of an almost 40, single mother of two.
The fact that you have to resort to calling this poor woman a nutcase shows just how desperate the Cult of Bush has become. The woman's son died because of Bush's lies, and she has every right to speak out against him without being called a nutcase. IMO, you'd have to be a nutcase to support Bush.
Sorry, but this lady is a basket case, that regardless what you think about our president. I am not a big fan of Bush and his policies but I have to say this lady and her comments are just out there.
She's not a nutcase for protesting the war, she is, however, becoming a crackpot b/c she is starting to be delusionary and a little bit on the "fringe" of normal b/c she is talking about "channeling" her dead son and his fallen brothers-in-arms and trying to speak for them post-mortem by saying that they have given her messages and spoken to her.
To commentor #1:
She's certifiable and beyond reality. A sane person does not have these thoughts.
Remember, she has big money supporting her, a PR firm handling her, etc. She did not raise her son, his father did. Her son did not share her beliefs. The President has met with her already. These facts are indisputable.
The MSM machine is not covering the entire story. Imagine that!
Looking forward to your report upon your return from Crawford.
Yeah Nic, they all lose me when they start to talk about 'things from the beyond'...
I would, and did, defend her right to protest and voice her opinion... but in all candor, she'd better serve her son's memory (and his life) by honoring his selfless service to his country.
Oh... I see you turned on 'word verification' ... how's that working out?
My schizophrenic mother-in-law sound saner than that!!
I think she just ran out of arguments to justify her behavior and resorted to the paranormal.
I think the fact that she knows her son would disapprove has caused her to crack up. IMO, it is disrespectful to her son's memory to act the way she is acting.
Are you financially prepared for tomorrow?
Do you have alternative cash-flow streams coming into your household?

Hello Everyone!
Well, this weekend has been pretty good!! It's been a little hectic getting settled into the new area and helping the missionaries in my old wards to get to know the people that I taught! So on Thursday we had a lesson with a Recent Convert, Jeff. He is a really neat guy! He hits his year mark in May and has had different struggles this past year, but he is really trying to be good, and I'm really excited to get to work with him! Then on Friday we had a short lesson with a less-active, Brent and that went pretty well. It was a short stop-in because he got a phone call and had to leave, but he came to church yesterday for the second time in a few decades!! I'm really excited to work with him as well because he finally has that desire to come back, now we just have to help him on his way! :) Then we stopped by a former investigator, Alfonso, and he is a pretty cool guy! I've actually met him a few times before, and he is just such a good guy! He told Sister Flake that he came to church this past Sunday for her, so hopefully we can keep teaching him, but he says that he isn't too interested. Then on Saturday I went out for a few hours with the sisters that took 3rd ward and we had a good afternoon! We saw Brittany again, and they set up a return appointment, so I really hope that those sisters can get into that home! She just seems like such a sweet lady and has a good family, I hope that they will accept the gospel in their lives!!! Then yesterday was pretty crazy; my 3 new wards area at 9, 11 and 1 so we are at church almost all day long, it's pretty exciting! Whoever says that 3 hours is long needs to try out church all day. :) Anyway, then we visited a lot of people for Sister Flake to say goodbye, everyone has loved having her here because she was here for 9 months, so hopefully we can do a good job at filling her spot! :) So it's been a pretty good weekend, nothing too exciting though! I hope that you all have a great week ahead of you! I love you all!!
Sister Zimmerman
Our trio! Only two more days of this, but it's been a blast!! :)
This is my sweet Sarita, I love her! :)
