It's been a while, hasn't it? I've had the unfortunate luck of running into some stress and anxiety over some stuff, causing me to lapse into a little bit of depression. So I've been absent, because when I feel low I can't write. And I've been so tired lately it's been a struggle just to keep up with normal life. So, in light of recent events and the upcoming holiday, this week's QOTW is
You're wonderful, and bright, and special. Never forget it. Do your best, try your hardest, and let the world know how loud you can be.
I'll be posting an update soon, keep you posted. 😘

I'm not entirely sure where this week has been going. It's what, Thursday now? Well, I know where Tuesday went. And subsequently, Wednesday morning, so I guess that would account for a solid third, I guess it makes sense now.
I've been very creatively charged for the past week or so, both in terms of coming up with concepts and ideas and having the gumption to want to do something what that feverish desire. So yeah, just watch me do something with it, hopefully.
I reopened my window after our first brief affair with conditioned air, and I feel much better. Don't get me wrong, once the temperature gets up past, realistically, 85 degrees, I don't want to be in a situation that doesn't involve a powerful air conditioner. But pretty much any situation below that, I'd prefer to get some lungs full of fresh air and listen to the trees moving around. I don't mean with the wind rustling the leaves and branches, I mean there are trees literally getting up and taking root elsewhere outside my apartment. It is a fearful sight, but also somewhat breathtaking.
Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating. It's still pleasant to take in the all too brief signs of springtime in the desert. And knock on work desk, no allergies yet, either.

Hi Ladies!
My fiance and I would love a modern and chic wedding in Boston. However, we simply can't justify spending loads of money on just one day and was wondering if anyone knew of a venue (for ceremony/reception) that can accomodate roughly 125 guests and still not break the bank. Our budget is $30K, including all the vendors (florist, dj etc.)

Watson's caddy battling fatal disease
By BILL VILONA Pensacola (Fla.) News Journal
PENSACOLA, Fla. - Tom Watson admits golf no longer is a constant obsession. Competition still stirs him, but life has presented other challenges. The biggest one stands at his side.
For 30 years, Bruce Edwards has been Watson's primary caddy. They've been teammates, striding the fairways together as Watson emerged as one of the sport's greatest players.
Now, they're in a race against time.
Edwards was diagnosed in January with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease. There is no cure for the progressive neurological disease, which got its nickname from the famed New York Yankees slugger felled by the disease in 1939. The disease attacks nerve cells, causing an eventual loss of all motor function. The life expectancy of those diagnosed ranges from two to five years.
"I'm trying to take a page out of Bruce's book when he says, 'We'll just carry on.' That's what we're doing," Watson said.
He has channeled a passion into helping Edwards beat this fatal illness. Inside a plastic bag, Watson had ALS information. Messages. Physician numbers. Drug company literature. He spends hours working the phones.
"There was a drug that was successfully used on a disabled patient," he said. "A doctor used it to reverse ALS on a woman. Unfortunately, this drug is hard to get. We're kind of in a situation where we don't know how to get it."
Watson is doing everything he can. He's going after any possible cure the same way he battled to victories in 39 PGA Tour events, including eight major championships.
"Honestly, I've played a lot of golf in my life, and I still want to come out and compete," said Watson, in his fifth season on the Champions Tour. "But I have other things to do. I've got other interests. I honestly don't spend the time honing my game like I used to."
Edwards, 48, is holding on, although he told NBC-TV golf reporter Jimmy Roberts in an interview earlier this year, "It's scary, because this is something that kills you."
Treating ALS costs an estimated $200,000 in annual medical expenses. Like most caddies working professional golf, Edwards has no insurance. Watson has pledged to pay every dime.
The two met in 1973, in the parking lot of a St. Louis golf club. Watson, then 23, was searching for a caddy. Edwards was searching for a golfer. A year later, Watson won the Western Open, igniting a decorated career that made him the No. 9 money winner of all time.
"Everybody loves Bruce," said Dennis Turning, another caddy.
Turning has known Edwards since they were 12. They grew up together in Connecticut. "It's very hard to deal with," he said. "You're helpless."

Last week I reviewed An Author's Odyssey by Chris Colfer, Which you can read HERE, So this week I will be sharing my Favourite Lines from the book.
"No one ever stops being a student in the classroom of life"
"You choose to grow from tragedy – and it takes a very strong person to do that"
"The Fairy-tale world has faced many troubling times in recent years, but never anything like this. It was the first time in history that happily ever after seemed impossible to regain."
"Alex had only agreed to her brothers plan because their options were so limited. The closer they got to actually going through with it, the more doubtful she became. It was one thing to travel into the books of classic literature, but an entirely different endeavour to go into short stories written by her brother."
"Daylight, Thank Goodness," the Cyborg Queen said. "I haven't had a solar charge in weeks!"
"Quick Question," she said. "Is this story based on anything that happened in real life? Anything that might have happened between us?"

This is a very familiar passage and a powerful one.
Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
Our life is built on hope. Hope is defined as, "feeling of expectation or a desire for something to happen." There are many desires and expectations in our life. If you were to ask a child what do you want to become when you grow up, they might say, a doctor, engineer or a pilot. Those are the usual answers we hear. We are taught to dream; to aim high; reach for the skies and work hard towards our goals. And there is always that confidence, that no matter what happens you will achieve one day; you will become what you've desired.
And one day, it so happens, that you get saved. God starts talking to you and reveals his will for your life and now you are all excited and pumped up.! But over time you notice a delay in fulfillment of those promises and slowly a bit of rottenness starts forming in you. You begin asking questions; when will all these things come to pass? Because we hate to wait. We want all things to be instantaneous and glorious. We want things to happen at the snap of a finger.
But that's not how God works. God has his way and timings to work his plans for you.
During those times we have to hold on to two things.
- Confidence
- Assurance
Confidence: Confidence in what we hope.
We know that the plans and promises of God will come to pass and that builds hope in our life. We wake up to see a new day with hopes and end the day with greater hopes for the next day. That confidence keeps our hopes alive.
What if all that seemed to fail?
How will you take that ? Will you still be able to keep that confidence alive ?
Assurance: Assurance about what we do not see.
We cannot visually see the future but can only be sure of things that will happen. Small paths will lead us to greater places. We cannot, at present, see the end but can be assured that it will come to pass one day.!
What if, we lose that assurance?
Hebrews 11:17 By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son.
At this point, Abraham's confidence and assurance were put to the test. God asked him to sacrifice his only son on mount Moriah. But Abraham without hesitation did what God asked him to do.
Abraham who is now called the father of faith faced a similar situation just as our confidence and assurance tested. In periods of testing, we have to hold on to God continuously no matter how difficult it seems. Those periods of testing are times when God builds your character.
When I think of my own life, the way God has worked and is still working. I can say before God build his kingdom in you, he breaks down your kingdom first. Maybe, in spite of our commitments to God, we still have something in us that needs to be cleansed and taken away so that God can work fully in our life. The more we are tested the stronger and fearless we will become.
If your confidence and assurance are put to the test then rejoice you are being made stronger.
Confidence in Hope and assurance in what we do not see gives birth to faith in us.
Stand the test of faith. You will become victorious one day.!

COLLEGE PARK, Md. – Junior Marty Costes and freshman Randy Bednar both hit home runs, but Maryland fell to VCU 14-3 at Bob "Turtle" Smith Stadium Tuesday afternoon.
The Terrapins (16-20) fell behind in the first and could not come back as VCU scored in the first five frames to take a commanding lead. Bednar and Costes both had multi-hit games.
Maryland starter Alec Tuohy looked sharp in the first, but an error by shortstop AJ Lee extended the VCU inning and allowed the Rams to score. VCU then got to Tuohy for three runs in the second.
Bednar cut the Rams lead to 4-2 in the bottom half to the second, slamming his fourth homer of the year, a two-run shot. After two more VCU runs in the third, Costes hit his third home run of the year to make it 6-3.
VCU scored eight unanswered runs to end the game.
Maryland returns to action Friday night against Purdue. Action is set to begin at 6:30.

It strikes me, that I've been blogging for almost a month now and there isn't much personal information about me on here. Which for the most part I'm happy with. I am not going to share every little thing on here and (I hope) neither would you expect me to. But, here is a little bit more info about me. I leave it to you whether you find it useful or not.
I am a non- smoker. I have never even tried it and don't intend to. Even when I was a teenager and I was asked if I wanted to have a go I said no. I knew then it looked disgusting and I haven't changed my mind in the more than a decade since. Willpower vs. peer pressure and I know what won for me.
I am for all intents and purposes tee-total. Whilst I will have the odd social drink when out with people and quite a few Sherries (Harvey's Bristol Cream all the way) at Christmas time, I feel I am under no pressure at all to 'copy' people and get drunk. If I have 10 alcoholic drinks in a year then that is a year of heavy drinking for me! I hate the feeling of being drunk and it annoys me that people use it as an excuse. It's not an excuse, you did that stupid thing / said that stupid thing and now you have to live with it. Am I ranting? Not yet, so I'll quit while I'm ahead.
About 10 years ago I went on a Bush craft Course in West Sussex. It was my first time camping (we're not really a camping family) and I loved it. I had my tent, had my crappy wooden spoon I whittled (I chipped off too much wood so I said it was a tea spoon!), made a shelter, had a go in a hammock, came 2 sparks off making fire with a bow drill and generally had a great time. At some point in the future I would love to go on a wild food course, I suppose the Bush Craft Course was just an extension of me being in the environmental group at college. My friends and family were a little …'surprised' shall we say? I didn't know anyone else doing it, was a long way from home, and the London bombings 7/7 happened the previous week but that shouldn't stop you doing something you want to do.
I have never had a pet. Nuff said.
I am not stylish nor do I follow fashion. But that's ok. I am tall, big-footed and not skinny so my mantra is: If it fits – get it! Some things in my wardrobe are many years old. I don't throw everything out and completely revamp my wardrobe like fashion magazines today would have us do every season change. I'm happy wearing what I wear, practical flat boots over sequinned high-heels any day I say.
What else? I eat meat, I could never be a vegetarian. :O
I would love to have a go at the following crafts: glass blowing, glass fusing/ slumping, willow basket weaving, stained glass window making, pottery, jewellery making, ceramic painting, upcycling furniture, learn to knit, sew a patchwork quilt, mosaics, screen print fabric, beading….and 1000s more.
I like New Age music. There. I've said it, it's out there. I can't take it back, I know. I quite like Loreena Mckennit, not the ye-olde-English-poem-in-a-song kind of songs, but I do like the Eastern sounding ones like 'Marco Polo', 'Caravanserai' and 'Gates of Istanbul'. If you don't know…Google.
I have abseiled down a tree, a wooden tower at an outdoor events place and a university building. I have zip-lined, climbed on a climbing wall, kayaked, done archery, fencing, karate, 1 kendo lesson, rode a horse, gone pony trekking! I have fed an elephant, visited three out of five Capitals in the British Isles – just Cardiff and Belfast to go! – seen German films in an English cinema and English films in a German one, been on a hydrofoil, catamaran and hovercraft. But I've never been skiing, ice skating or snowboarding 😦
I completed a Law A/S Level as a night class several years ago. I think we should all do a simple, short Law course at school, even if it was just to learn about the basic duties of Juries, Judges and Lawyers etc., and to understand the structure and hierarchy of the courts.
In 2008 right before I started university I completed a long distance Yoga Teacher Diploma. I'm not qualified to teach, nowhere near, not registered with any professional body or anything. But. I did want to learn more about the theory of Yoga and like anything I want to have a go at in life, I approached it as a research project and now I have a better understanding of what teaching it would entail and the history and background of Yoga. I haven't done any for a while, but once my cast is off I will definitely get back into Yoga at some point, although, since the foot will still be healing and swelling for a few more months it would make sense to take it slow and steady. And eat biscuits.
My 3 favourite books? How on Earth will I ever narrow it down? Catch -22 by Joseph Heller. Gone With the Wind by Margaret Mitchell. Wizard and Glass by Stephen King.
And Sleeping Naked is Green by Vanessa Farquarson. And North and South by Elizaeth Gaskell. And Magic Kingdom for Sale – Sold! By Terry Brooks. And Witches Abroad by Terry Pratchett. And American Gods by Neil Gaiman….seeing a theme here?
And films? Blues Brothers, Chocolat and V for Vendetta.
I should probably add that after I went to Germany on my year abroad in 2010, I stopped following popular music. I could not tell you who is in the top 20, let alone who is number 1. I. DON'T. DO. MUSIC. Soz.
Is all that useful or interesting or even relevant? That's up to you…

It was a dark and stormy night. Well actually yesterday it was mid-afternoon and a raincloud had just burst open. The door bell rang. Who felt like getting up and going to the door? Who would come to our house in the rain? It was a package delivery via the USPS. I opened the package in anticipation. It contained a note and a bag of wonderful coffee beans from my brother in law in the midwest. I had a sampling of this coffee recently and I loved it. I loved everything from the packaging to the rich flavor. The Coffee is "Revolution Roast" by the Just Coffee Cooperative in Madison, Wi.
The coffee is described on the package as "Complex, Spicy and Chocolatey." What is not to love? The coop is worker owned and is focused on Fair Trade practices. The full name of this individual flavor of coffee is "Revolution Roast: The official fuel of the revolution cycles." The back of the package advertises that their coffee is bike delivered in Madison.
As soon as I received this gift, this sleepy, lazy, rain affected person had to quickly make some of this coffee.
And as I thought about sitting down to write this entry today, I , of course, had to make some more coffee.
Here are a few other of their coffees with great graphic design on the labels.
I can almost see you running to the kitchen now to make yourself some coffee.

Hello, lovelies!
While I wear makeup almost every single day during the school year, the summertime is a whole other story. Because I babysit Monday through Friday, I don't really have the time or need to wear makeup, which is why I tend to play up my features on the weekends.
During the summer, I find myself gravitating towards the same couple of makeup looks because of their simplicity and guaranteed prettiness. Since I haven't been experimenting much with my makeup this summer, I thought it'd be really cool if I blogged about my go-to summer makeup look; a pretty gold and chocolate eye look perfect for these warm summer months.
Enjoy 🙂
What You'll Need
I used the Too Faced Natural Eyes Eye Shadow Palette to score this rich golden eye look, so if you own either the Natural Eyes or Natural Love palettes, you're all set to go. However, not everyone owns those two palettes, and that's totally fine. You can still achieve this makeup look by finding drugstore dupes of the following shades starred in the picture above.
The Steps
1. Personally, I like to do my eye makeup before applying concealer and powders to my face — eye shadow fallout always ruins my under-eye concealer and cheekbone highlight. Before any eye look, I like to fill in my brows (NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder), prime my eyelids (Urban Decay Primer Potion) and apply tape to my eyes (this acts as a guide for my winged eyeliner — see image below).
2. Whenever I do a multi-step eye look, I like to start with the crease. Using a fluffy blending brush, I buffed "Velvet Revolver" into the crease as a transition shade. Once that subtle transition shade was somewhat prominent in the most natural way possible, I took "Sexpresso" on a more concentrated blending brush and blended the color into the crease and outer-V of the eyelid. This will make the crease and outer-V much more prominent.
3. To make sure the crease isn't too overpowering, I like to darken up the outer corner of the eyelid even more. Using a more concentrated blending brush, I applied "Cocoa Puff" to the outer-V. I also took the time to blend this color into the outer crease as well.
4. To finish off the eye lid, I took "Honey Pot" on a flat eye shadow brush and patted the color on the inner half of my eye lid until that gold shadow sparkled like a friggin' diamond.
5. Highlighting is such a super important (and easy) step. I took a regular flat eye shadow brush and applied "Heaven" to the brow bone and inner corner of the eye.
6. After I finished the eyes, I lined my upper lash line and created a wing (Loreal Super Slim Liquid Liner), lined my lower water line (Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in "Demolition") and loaded up my top and bottom lashes with mascara (Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara).
The Result…
Thank y'all so much for reading!

At home we have three Xbox360's, three desktop computers, my laptop, two PS3's, a Roku box and two Western Digital Live Streaming players, an iPad and a Kindle all connected to our network for some reason or another. Whether that be Netflix, Spotify or just internet surfing – they all require an internet connection. Granted, not all at the same time, but you get the picture.
Monday morning we lost internet connection entirely. My husband ended up on the phone for a rather long time trying to resolve the issue. Sadly, no one could pinpoint what was causing the problem. You know it's bad when they say 'well I show you have connection' and you don't… At first I wasn't concerned. Usually if we have an outage things are back up and running fairly fast. So the husband and I took off for lunch and some shopping.
When we returned home, I think we were both expecting things to be back in action. We were wrong. The husband got back on the phone to check on the progress. He was informed it'd be about 48 hours before things were fixed. This was my reaction…
- Husband: So they said 48 hours.
- Me: *blink* *blink* …what the hell?!
- Husband: Yep, that's what they said.
- Me: No that can't be right…. Nope.. I don't accept that.
See, without internet I can't blog, look up cool things on Pinterest, watch Netflix! I can't plan my Girl Scout meetings or the next baking project without patterns or recipes. Hell I can't even look up new ideas for surviving the Zombie Apocalypse! The internet is like my ESPN for the sports nut during NFL playoffs. Is that bad? Probably… but the fact remains I was none too happy. I was about five minutes from packing the kids up and heading to my parents' house since their internet access was perfectly fine. Instead, what do I do? The next best thing, grab my iPhone and post about it on Facebook.
My Status Update:
For the first time in years we have NO Internet at home… I'm not sure what to do now… I really hope they fix it tomorrow!!
The comments from my friends:
- I picture you guys sitting in a circle staring at each other in silence…
- Reminds me of when the power went out in the trailer and mom would bust out the lamp.
- OMG this is life just a few short years ago! You're cracking me up 🙂
- It really is too funny! I can't imagine you guys without internet. Hahaha!
- Lol uh oh
And the comment from a fellow daycare mom:
Your husband works in IT and you have no internet? Isn't that what you have him for?
I love how well my friends know me. It really does crack me up. Now, is it the end of the world that I had a major lack of internet? No, not by any means. Was it a huge pain in my behind? Hell yes! I have a very hard time with anything that doesn't work, let alone the internet.
On the other hand, the lack of internet did give me a good opportunity to watch regular TV and remind myself why I love Netflix and DVR content. I really dislike commercials. Five minutes of a show then 20 minutes of commercials… That really doesn't fit into my busy life. It also gave me a chance to start the new book I bought while we were on our family 'vacation' this past weekend. I say vacation loosely but that's an entirely different posting.
While the lack of internet was a total disappointment, I survived the night and had high hopes it would be back up and running the next day. While at work the next morning the husband called up our ISP. According to their records, the ticket had been resolved and closed. My reaction: WOOHOO! That is until the husband went home to check on it…
The ticket had been listed as resolved and closed… yet we had no internet. Gotta love it. FINALLY he managed to get in touch with a tech in our area. By Tuesday afternoon we had access once again. Thank the tech gods. So far we've had no additional issues, but that may be due to the sacrificed goat I offered to the tech gods on Wednesday… Maybe…

There will be much discussion during 2017 surrounding energy performance certificates (EPCs) and the changes due April 2018, when minimum energy efficiency requirements will apply to both domestic and non-domestic properties in respect of both new and renewal tenancies.
There are wide reaching implications here which will not only impact on the granting of tenancies, but also in dealing with alterations carried out during the term of the tenancy.
Given the costs involved, attention will undoubtedly be given to the permitted exemptions, and the likely method of enforcement, particularly in the months following the introduction of the changes.
If you would like to discuss how SJP Law can help you, please contact a member of our specialist property team: Andrew Cooney or Samantha Lambert on 01482 324591.

Did you have any maps with you? I'm planning the GR11 but find it impossible to come up with any reasonable mapping solution... For GR5 I used four 1:100k IGN maps, which were perfect but unfortunately the IGN mapping grid won't reach far enough to the Spanish side. Can't carry 1:25k or 1:50k maps that seems to be the only available Spanish maps, expensive as well.So far I might go with the Cicerone guide + make my own printed maps: http://www.walkingclub.org.uk/maps/topographic/spain.shtmlAnyone better ideas? (and no, no GPS)

text: Unlike the noisy privatisation shows and far from the eyes of the common public, a somewhat strange drama is being played, with a likely fatal end.The surprise will be a result of the series of far-sighted managerial decisions, made by the Ministry of Economy since May 2002. Seven months ago the Deputy Premier and Minister of Economy Nikolai Vassilev announced that the deal worth BGN40.7MN for the sale of the Italian mini-plant Danielli, owned by the Pernik-based enterprise Kamet, won't be effected. It was explained that the contract signed on January 16, 2002 between Kamet and the consortium of Russian companies Hansatiko (registered in Finland), picked up to buy the equipment, would be cancelled. The reason was that the consortium demanded to change the way of payment - instead by a bank transfer to effect it by a letter of credit. This was not accepted by the Ministry of Economy, but Mr. Vassilev promised that very soon the Privatisation Agency (PA) and not Kamet's managerial team would open a new tender procedure for Danielli's sale.However, such a tender has not been invited yet. But the updating of the Italian production line's evaluation is ready and the information memorandum about the imported equipment (purchased by Bulgaria for DEM129MN in 1989) is presently being prepared. Danielli's sale is the only chance for the survival of the insolvent Kamet. The trouble is that since 1995 this will be the seventh attempt to sell the Italian line, whose price is drastically going down. Moreover, Danielli has been in private hands for ten months now. The BANKER weekly has a document, signed on February 15, 2002, which reads:On the basis of the sale contract between the two sides, signed on January 16, 2002, this protocol for the delivery of the metallurgical line Danielli was drawn between Kamet EAD, Bulgaria and the production line's buyer Hantastiko, Finland, about the following: The buyer of the line has paid in advance to the seller DEM100,000. Against that sum the seller transfers the ownership on the special consignment No 19 (according to the Italian numeration), containing Shear type CMR250/500 - a set with a lubricating system and a hydraulic system. The consignment becomes property of the buyer and is to be kept by the seller till its transportation. The consortium practically began effecting payment of the deal on Danielli in the beginning of this year. Hansatiko's representatives in Bulgaria have officially informed PA's Executive Director Apostol Apostolov about this situation. In addition to the money paid for the special consignment No 19, the consortium has also paid USD350,000 for its participation in the Danielli venture and does not agree to lose it. But that's exactly what the Minsitry of Economy wants. A short letter was sent on June 25, 2002 to Hansatiko's Manager - the Russian citizen Alexander Ivanov. It informs him that due to non-fulfillment of the contract for Danielli's sale, Kamet EAD cancels it, keeping the deposited USD350,000. It is curious that the letter has been sent on behalf of Kamet, but it is not on an official form of the company. The letter was signed by the enterprise's Exectutive Director Ivan Ivanov, appointed on the same day to replace Valentin Peshev, who was fired a week earlier. Thus, the decision for keeping the deposit was most probably made not by Kamet EAD, which is the formal side of the contract, but directly by the Economy Ministry which is the principal of the bankrupt plant.In end-November Kamet was headed by Nikolai Traichev, who until then was director of the private company Berg Balkan. Perhaps the Economy Ministry has failed to notice that thanks to it and to the other company - NIPKITOX, which rented the production workshops in the state-owned enterprise, it lost more than BGN300,000 from unpaid rent. On November 27 Mr. Traichev was invited by Hansatiko to ensure to their representatives permanent access to the part of Danielli, purchased by them, with a view to the forthcoming dislocation of the private property. Last week Mr. Traichev began negtiations Hansatiko's representatives in Bulgaria. Two options for a way out of the situation have been discussed. After Danielli's sale Hansatiko should either get back the money it paid for a part of the Italian equipment and the deposit, or Kamet should be leased to Hansatiko until it gets back the due money. The two proposals were presented to the Ministry of Economy but it has not yet announced its stance.

Hey guys,
Boyfriend jeans have been a go to pair of jeans for a lot of bloggers for a while now and I've always wanted to own a pair because I loved the relaxed feel and style and also I loved the way they could be styled to look dressy if you wanted them to be. I had been trying to find a pair that would be good for me and wouldn't be horrible on. I checked the high street stores and found a pair in Zara so I went to try them on.
They didn't look good on me at all and they weren't that boyfriend relaxed fit that I was looking for…you know the bagginess of what boyfriend jeans should be. So I let them go and decided not to look anymore. However, a few weeks ago (I think), Gypsy Warrior were holding a giveaway where 5 lucky people could win a pair of their Detroit Boyfriend Jeans. I entered because they looked exactly what I was looking for.
I was one of those lucky ones! But I only found out a few days (probably a week or more after) that I had won and worried that it would be too late to claim them I emailed and thank goodness they were so nice to still be able to send them to me. I went on their site and tried to choose the size according to what Courtney from The Stylist Playlist, she recommended to size down as they are baggy so I chose size 27″ Thank you Courtney!
I received them yesterday and my gosh I am so happy to say that I am a Gypsy Warrior chick! They are the best boyfriend jean ever! If you are looking for an authentic boyfriend jean then these ones are for you. They are flattering as well though and I discovered that I could wear them on my waist with a belt and they still look flattering on! I loved the ripped and paint splattered details on them…they are perfection. I love them so much that I decided to return a pair of Zara jeans I had purchased yesterday because I don't feel like I need them anymore now that I got these and they weren't even the same style either.
So as you can tell…I am beyond happy with them. I'm sure ye will be too if you get them. I can safely say…I've fallen in love with my Gypsy Warrior Boyfriend Jeans. You can get 20% off with code GYPSYLIFE20
What do you think? Do you like boyfriend jeans? Do you own a pair or the same pair?
You are Beautiful!

Did fifteen days of absolutely no marketing to get a control number and I sold like ten books. Awesome! My books sell even without me trying. Weirdly my first book sold and I don't see an equal sales of the second book. Do I write bad? That people buy the first book and don't pick up the second book. So, I actually went back and read my books. Guys, I'm not so bad. I like it. But, I accept that just because I like it, the rest of the world doesn't have to.
You know, most people haven't read the Lord of the Rings. It's just too long and too complicated. Tolkein spent his life writing it, but apparently that means nothing. No matter. If Tolkein can write and not bother about sales, I guess I can too. (Whispers 'thank god for my day job') Kidding! Of course I like seeing sales even if it means nothing. Amazon and the IRS take most of my money. But every time someone buys my book I get chills

A problem a lot of athletes deal with when their career ends is the case of no longer having an income, and some aren't sure on how to manage the situation.
In the majority of cases, athletes are known for the bad investments they make during their lifetime. They have the habit to spend a lot of money on parties and they try to support their friends, even if their budget does not allow it.
But there are athletes who are also successful businesspersons, and people should inspire from their story.
They know how to manage their money and in some cases, they do a great job. There are athletes that have grown big brands around their business, and they have success even if their careers have ended. Here are some examples of successful businesses run by athletes.
Have you tried the fragrance line promoted by David Beckham?
David Beckham is considered one of the best soccer players of the world, but he is famous not only for his athletic abilities, but also for the many activities, he gets involved into. He has great modeling skills that have brought him a lot of money. While being a football player he took part to many projects and recently he even purchased a soccer field in Miami. So who is going to stop David from being a successful businessman? In case you do not know, one of his most successful investments is his fragrance line, because men from all around the world want to smell like him in the hope that they will have his success.
Have a glass of David Ginola's Wine
David Ginola was considered one of the best torment defenders of the world, and he was famous for the smooth moves he made on the field. Everyone remembers him from the mazy run he did in the FA Cup against Barnsley. But alongside being a midfielder for Newcastle United and Aston Villa, he is also considered a successful businessperson, because he decided to invest in his own vinery. He bought a winery in the South of France, and he receives great income from this business. The quality of his wine is recognized around the world, and in 2008, his Coste Brulade rose wine received the silver award at the International Wine challenge.
Ryan Giggs and his Hotel Football
Ryan Giggs is known as the most decorated sportsman in the history of British football. He has won every prize that can be won in this game, and when he decided to retire, he invested in a successful business. He opened the Hotel Football close to Old Trafford together with Paul Scholes, Gary Neville and Phil Neville. But his investments do not stop here, he also opened Café Football in Westfield Stratford, one of the largest shopping centers from London. The restaurant is located close to the Olympic Park and it is famous for the football based dishes.

SAN BRUNO, Calif. — The roof of Gap Inc.'s administration building here has a field of native grasses and wildflowers planted on its surface, which undulates like the surrounding green hills. The air-conditioning system pumps cool night air under the floor slabs.
But the most extraordinary thing about this two-story office building is its windows. They open.
There was a time in the United States when all office workers could open and shut their windows. But then came central air-conditioning, and by the end of the 1960s, "operable windows" had disappeared from new buildings. Workers and their immediate atmosphere were more or less hermetically sealed behind glass.

Statement of Belief ~ Statement of Being ~ Foundational Truths ~ Changeless Truth ~ Principles and Practice ~ FAQ ~ History ~ Texts
What do Divine Scientists believe about God?
Divine Scientists believe that God is omnipresent (all-present); omnipotent (all-powerful); omniactive (all-active); and omniscient (all-knowing). Everything, both invisible and visible, is an expression of God; God and God acting is all there is. God is the universal Mind. God is creative intelligence, Principle. When we live in Truth, we see God in all things.
Divine Science emphasizes Omnipresence and its all encompassing meaning, more than other faiths. If you believe that God is everywhere, then it stands to reason that God is within you. Since what He is, is never separate from His presence, which is everywhere, then all His qualities are everywhere. We see God as that universal Energy that is perfect Wisdom, Love, Life, Truth, Understanding, Peace and Goodness. If God and all He is is in us, then all these spiritual qualities are in us, too.
Genesis 1:26: "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness." Divine Science teaches that there is a non-physical dimension in everyone that is the image of God, and is endowed with a full compliment of divine qualities and powers. Life, and all its challenges, presents an ongoing opportunity to discover and express what we really are - spiritual beings having a human experience. Our true identity is God's image - God's child. When we begin to see ourselves in that light, life takes on a vastly new look. We live in a "friendly" universe. We already have the strengths and abilities to create and attract a life experience that is fulfilling and meaningful and that gives us an opportunity to be a source of blessings to others. One of the greatest appeals of Divine Science is it's ability to change your view of yourself from an ordinary, struggling person to a unique, exceptional one. Since one's self-image becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, when we really see ourselves as unlimited, as having access to answers to our questions and solutions to our problems, we live with greater expectation of good and a deeper connection with the source of that good - God.
Do Divine Scientists believe that theirs is the only true religion?
Divine Science is an inclusive religion which understands that some part of the Truth is found in all religions, but no one religion can claim to have a monopoly on the whole Truth. All Religions have value in that each one fills the needs of its members; but there is still only One God of all.
Is Divine Science CHRISTIAN?
Divine Science is Christian in the deepest sense and in the tradition of the earliest Christian churches. Divine Science is is based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. Divine Science is also considered to be a study in Christian metaphysics or Christian Mysticsm. Divine Science embraces the truth as taught by Jesus the Christ through his ministry but does not exclude the relevance of other teachings that enable us to live through love and compassion. This in no way invalidates the Bible's historical significance, but rather adds another dimension of understanding to traditional teaching. We also recognize the great philosophies that originated in the East. Our religion is practical, reasonable, and livable. We believe that "a change in outer experience comes from a change in inner awareness through the mental and spiritual law of cause and effect." Divine Science studies the Bible's mystic teachings and looks to Jesus the Christ (the anointed) as the Wayshower. Therefore, Divine Science is Christian.
Do Divine Scientists Follow the Bible?
Divine Scientists follow the precepts and teachings of Jesus, the Christ, which are contained in the Bible. Recognizing that the early prophets were great men, divinely led and illumined, they find inspiration in the Old as well as the New Testament. While they do not take literally all that the Bible holds, they learn to search for the hidden Truths, always guided by the teachings of Jesus the Christ.
Do Divine Scientists believe in Jesus?
Yes, both as a man and as the highest expression of God -- The Christ, or Anointed One. Divine Scientists believe that Christ represents the divine nature of each person, of all persons. This divine nature is the universal Presence, saying, "Lo, I am with you always." (Matthew 28:20) This Christ nature is in everyone as a perfectly created and divine being.
What observations of the divine-science-sacraments do Divine Scientists have?
Divine Scientists observe the divine-science-sacraments of marriage, baptism or 'consecration of children,' and burial. They believe that every process of life is a sacrament. As the Spirit of God is with us at all times, our divine-science-sacraments are with us at every moment, eternally.
Can biochemists and natural scientists believe in God?
Scientists not only can but do believe in God. Einstein has said: "Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind." And Dr. Werner von Braun wrote: "Many people seem to feel that science has somehow made religious ideas (such as immortality) untimely or old-fashioned. I think science has a real surprise for the skeptics. Science tells us that nothing in nature, not even the tiniest particle, can disappear without a trace. Nature does not know extinction. All it knows is transformation."
Einstein also says, "A person who is religiously enlightened appears to me to be one who has, to the best of his ability, liberated himself from the fetters of his selfish desires and is preoccupied with thoughts, feelings, and aspirations to which he clings because of their superpersonal value." And again: "It is only to the individual that a soul is given. And the highest destiny of the individual is to serve rather than to rule, or to impose himself in any other way."
Divine Science, since its beginning, has taught principles which accord with, strengthen, and enlarge upon present-day scientific findings.
Does Divine Science believe in divine-science-missionary-work work?
There are thirteen or fourteen Divine Science churches throughout the United States and the world; Although Divine Science does not have a divine-science-missionary-work arm to the church. Every individual student of Divine Science becomes a divine-science-missionary-work according to his consciousness and call.
Do Divine Scientists go to hospitals or to doctors? Do they believe in vaccination?
Yes, Divine Scientists believe that all people are God's children, spiritual beings, created in the image of God. However, we are still unfolding in understanding of this Truth, and doctors and hospitals are often necessary and helpful as we grow in understanding. On all levels of unfoldment we know there is a solution for every individual need. Each individual is spiritually guided to the right solution.
What is a Divine Science Practitioner?
Divine Scientist practitioner is one has learned the principles of Divine Science and practices these principles in his or her life. A licensed practitioner has had special training and education to enable him or her to practice the healing methods of Christ. A licensed practitioner is a counselor who uses prayer to assist people in uplifting their minds, hearts, and spirits; teaches the principles of Divine Science to facilitate the expansion and strengthening of the consciousness. The root practice of this is the practitioner's ability to see the truth of the Divine Presence in all people and situations and thus to facilitate the unfolding of Holy Spirit. Healing is the result of revealing the presence and healing power of God.
Do Divine Science have ordained ministers?
Yes; the various Divine Science denominations ordain ministers after they have been educated and trained. Today there are about two or three Divine Science Divinity Schools around the world, perhaps more. Usually there is an internship prior to ordination but this is not always the case.
Do Divine Scientists believe in Heaven and Hell?
Divine Scientists believe that we individually make our own heaven or hell right here on earth, through our own attitude of mind, outlook, and level of consciousness (or spiritual understanding). Divine Scientists do not believe that individuals are burnt in fire or tortured, unless it be through thinking, through remorse, sorrow, or regret. God can in no way cause hurt of any kind, for God knows only Perfection, or Good. It is our own ignorance of the Truth that causes hurt of any kind. Our own attitude, or our feeling of well-being as we see only good in all things and conditions, will likewise produce for us 'heavenly' conditions in our lives.
Divine Science doesn't believe in hell or eternal damnation. How could a God of love create such a place? If God the Good is everywhere, where could Hell exist? The only hell that exists is a state of mind where negative thoughts and emotions reign supreme. Why does God allow terrible things to happen? We have all been given free will, and that includes the freedom to misuse our opportunities and abilities. But even when we misuse them, God's unconditional love is still ours. We are never punished FOR our sins. We are punished BY our sins. God never punishes us. Negative acts simply have negative results. Jesus Christ, the greatest spiritual teacher the world has ever known, came to teach us a method of thinking and living that connects us with a sense of God's presence and the experience of Divinely created good.
Do Divine Scientists believe in sin, sickness, and death?
Divine Scientists believe that sin is the result of ignorance of the Truth. The word sin, from its early Greek meaning in archery, merely meant a 'missing of the mark.'; In other words, we sin or miss the mark when we fail to attain to our highest calling, which is the realization of our Christ nature.
Sickness is the lack of full realization of what we are, i.e. spiritual beings. Doctors today are increasingly aware that many physical manifestations of illness are 'psychosomatic', or expressions of an inner attitude. Divine Scientists have found that when an individual is expressing on a high level of consciousness, and knows completely that God is omnipresent, then harmony with the one creative Power, God, results in perfection.
For Divine Scientists, the appearance of death is only one of many experiences in the spiritual unfoldment and development of the soul. As stated earlier, in the paragraph on the attitude of biochemists and scientists to religion, nothing in life is wasted. At the time of what is referred to as death, the consciousness moves into another level of expression; but life does not cease, for all is spiritual Life, eternally.
Do Divine Scientists believe in miracles?
Divine Scientists believe that miracles are the logical result of spiritual oneness with the Creator of all Good, God. Jesus the Christ understood through his perfect 'at-one-ment' with God, the inner and eternal perfection of every being. Through this absolute knowledge and faith in God, who creates perfectly, Jesus was able to realize the Truth in every situation. The inner, eternal Truth was then manifested, causing what is known as a miracle. Jesus Christ, the greatest spiritual teacher the world has ever known, came to teach us a method of thinking and living that connects us with a sense of God's presence and the experience of Divinely created good.
Do Divine Scientists believe in two powers (good and evil)?
No. Divine Scientists believe in only one power, which is the power of God, or Good. Having been given free choice, we sometimes fail to express or apply this One Power. When we drive a car, for example, we can send it either forward or backward, though it is still the same force we use to run it in either direction. "Evil" in the world is a result of the actions of human beings and not the work of dark powers. As we turn toward God and take actions rooted in love we have the power to change any conditions in the world and manifest the time when the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is part of all people's lives in the world. Humanity can end hunger and disease but it is up to us to choose to do this and take actions rooted in love and compassion to bring this into being.
Do Divine Scientists hold communion?
For Divine Scientists, the taking of the bread and the wine, or an outward expression of communion, is not practiced. Divine Scientists seek a constant sense of mental and spiritual communion with God at all times, knowing the very flesh and blood of the living Christ is the flesh and blood of every believer.
There are many wonderful New Thought organizations with diverse root texts and a variety of approaches to those texts and distinct methods of teaching.
Explore different New Thought beliefs and choose the approach that best suits you. While we are aware that the majority of people who choose the New Thought Path do not find a New Thought Community that suits their sensibilities, we encourage you to visit the different centers.
The basic premise of New Thought is that which is Divine is Good and Omnipresent. New Thought is based on Universal Spiritual Principles as demonstrated and taught by historical figures such as Buddha, Danika, Lao Tzu, and Jesus the Christ. It is understood there are many "Wayshowers." The strength of the teaching of a particular Wayshower is demonstrated through the consciousness and actions of the followers of that path. The adherents of each spiritual path are collectively responsible to the rest of humanity and all life to insure that the expression of their path is not abusive or violent nor violates the rights of other beings.
As mentioned above, New Thought is inclusive and draws on the wisdom of all traditions that teach the truth of our Unity with God/Good and the omnipresence of God/Good.
New Thought supports us on our individual journey of personal spiritual evolution.
We are not affiliated with old New Thought Transdenominations: Neither United or International Centers for Spiritual Living, nor Unity, DivineUnity, UFBL or Divine Science. We serve all New Thought Communities regardless of their affiliation or independence.

Your Chevrolet dealership isn't the only place to locate genuine or original equipment quality replacement parts for your C2500 Suburban. Chevrolet car, truck, or SUV owners have become used to a certain level of dependability when driving their C2500 Suburban around town. The vehicle in your driveway symbolizes the best in class compared to all the other vehicles in today's marketplace. Auto enthusiasts appreciate the a brand you can trust built into each Chevrolet, and know that only the best replacement C2500 Suburban parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done.
Heat causes the coolant in your engine to expand, and every liquid-cooled engine handles that in the same way. Your Chevrolet C2500 Suburban operates consistently at a temperature close to 200-degrees Fahrenheit, and in order to stop it from boiling the pressure must be around 15-20psi. That means your Chevrolet C2500 Suburban coolant expansion tank must always be holding liquid coolant. If you are constantly topping off your coolant, look for crusty residue somewhere on the coolant reservoir.

In August I went to Turkey for the first time. I wrote this while preparing for my trip . . .
I am so excited for my trip to Turkey! It will be my first time visiting the home country of my husband, as well as meeting his extended family. Besides the obvious reasons to be excited (meeting new people and visiting a country I've never been to before) there are a few other things I am especially looking forward to: the food, the culture, and the site-seeing!
While we will be spending some of our two-and-a-half weeks there with my husband's family, we are also planning to play the role of tourists and see the sites. But there is so much to see in Turkey! Where to start . . .
Istanbul is on the top of our list, which is convenient because it is where we will fly in and out from. It is in the northern part of Turkey, about an hour and a half from my husband's family.
Founded in the 7th century BC, Istanbul has a lot to offer — especially for those interested in history.
Fun Facts About Istanbul:
~ It's the only city on two continents (Europe and Asia)
~ Throughout history it has been the capital of four different Empires: the Roman, Byzantine, Latin, and Ottoman.
~ It contains both the incredible Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia
~ In 2010 it was named the European Capital of Culture
~ The home of Topkapi Palace, the largest and oldest palace in the world
Besides Istanbul, there is a plethora of other interesting and historically rich places to visit in Turkey. Turkey has been at the crossroads of civilizations since ancient times, and thus holds many ancient treasures. Some such treasures include the ruins of the ancient city of Ephesus, the cave dwellings in Goreme National Park of Cappadocia, and the Sumela Monastery in Northeastern Turkey. A friend told me you can ride hot air balloons in Cappadocia . . . though I'm not sure if we'll make it over to that region since it is more in the central part of Turkey. In northwestern Turkey you can find the ancient city of Troy, made famous by the ancient Greek author Homer in his book the Illiad. You can even see a replica of the Trojan horse, which is the actual model built for the movie "Troy."
For those interested in natural wonders, there are plenty to be seen. In the southwestern region of Turkey, you can find the ancient Pamukkale mineral hot springs, which are believed by seem to have healing properties. The view of them is amazing in pictures so I'm sure it would look really awesome in person; they have formed white steps or shelves due to the calcium deposits from the water.
Mount Ararat can be found in eastern Turkey. If it sounds familiar, it should– this is the famed mountain where it is believed that Noah's ark landed after the great flood. In recent history, there have been many expeditions into the mountain range here to attempt to find the ark.
Though there are too many places to see in Turkey to list them all here, one more interesting one to mention is Patara. This is the birthplace of the real St. Nicholas– from whom the legendary Santa Claus is based. There are plenty of tourist attractions in Patara and the nearby city of Myra, where St. Nicholas was a Bishop.
My trip is fast approaching and I get more excited every day! I'll have to share all about our trip when I come back. Who knows what adventures we might have!

Why many young Somali-American Muslims in Minnesota aren't going to mosque
Most days, when 19-year-old Mohamed Jama Hassan concludes his summer internship at Augsburg College, he does something most people his age don't do: He goes straight to the mosque.
That routine is even more important during Ramadan, the month in which observant Muslims fast from dawn to dusk. Around this time of the year, one Minneapolis mosque, Masjid al-Rawdah, becomes more like his second home.
On a recent afternoon, when Hassan woke up from a nap at the back of the mosque, a man signaled him from the other corner of the mosque to make the adhan, a call to prayer.
It was 5:10 p.m., and Hassan — wearing the long-sleeved garment known as a thobe — rose from the carpeted floor and poured his voice into the microphone, announcing the day's third prayer, Asr. "God is most great," he recited in Arabic. "Come to prayer. Come to success."
Ten minutes later, the empty mosque became half-full. But one thing stood out among the faithful: Nearly all of them were gray-haired men aged between 40 and 70 — a reality that's also common at most Somali-run mosques in Minnesota.
"Young Somali-Americans don't feel welcomed at mosques," said Hassan. "The imams can't relate to them because they don't speak the same language; they don't know how to connect with young people. There is a big cultural divide, unfortunately."
The growth of Somali-run mosques
Before the Somali community began their journey to Minnesota almost three decades ago, there were only a small handful of mosques in the state.
Then, in 1998, the first Somali-run mosque, Dar al-Hijrah Islamic Civic Center, was built in Minneapolis' Cedar Riverside neighborhood, an area that now has the largest concentration of Somali-Americans in the U.S.
At the time, only a couple of thousand Somalis lived in Minnesota. So each Friday, most of the congregation streamed into Dar al-Hijrah for the day's special prayers and lecture. To accommodate the worshippers, the center organized multiple services, where the crowd sometimes spilled into the parking area, said Sharif Abdirahman Mohamed, the imam of the mosque.
As the population of Somali-Americans and other Muslim communities in Minnesota grew, however, so did the number of Islamic centers in the state. Since 1998, says Mohamed, the number of mosques in Minnesota increased from four to nearly 50 today.
And while a few are operated by the African-American, Middle East and Oromo communities, Somalis have established the vast majority of those mosques. Most are concentrated in the Twin Cities metro area, though a growing number of the Somali-American community in St. Cloud, Rochester, Faribault and other Greater Minnesota cities has opened several mosques and religious schools.
A cultural divide
Hassan, who was born and grew up in Minneapolis, has been an active member and a volunteer at several different Minneapolis mosques. Throughout those years, Hassan noticed one recurring trend in the Somali-run mosques: Young people generally don't feel welcome.
There are several reasons why they feel isolated, but the main one has to do with a deep cultural divide between the community's older generation and younger Somali-Americans, especially millennials. For the most part, religious leaders and older mosque-goers often expect younger people to speak Somali, Hassan says, dress "properly" and cut their hair as if they have an important job interview.
Many younger Somali-Americans, however, live in a different world. Some are big fans of the NBA players and pay attention to hip-hop culture, from which they take their fashion cues. That often means that the young men may come to the mosque with hairstyles that often draw negative attention from older worshippers and religious leaders. "They will ridicule you because of your hair, your appearance," Hassan said. "There's a lot of judging at mosques. It's what makes a lot of young people not want to come near."
But even if young Somali-Americans — most of whom were born or grew up in the U.S. — follow the proper mosque etiquette, the cultural and language barriers still force them out of the congregation, said Masjid Al-Rawdah Director Mohamud Farah.
That's because imams at most Somali-run mosques in the Twin Cities offer important Friday lectures in Arabic or Somali, languages most young Somalis don't understand. "The sheiks like to speak in Arabic and Somali," Farah said. "They don't know English. But even if they try [speak English], our youth don't understand them. It's funny to them to hear the sheiks' broken English and the way they pronounce the words."
It's not only the language or cultural divide that young Somalis can find off-putting, however. Many also find the lectures imams deliver as irrelevant to the day-to-day lives of the Muslims living in America. "They talk about what a Muslim should do when slaughtering an animal," Hassan said. "That's good to know, but how many of us really slaughter animals on a regular basis? I mean, we've got Whole Foods here."
A lack of activism
Since 2014, when the Black Lives Matter movement rose to national prominence after the shooting of the 18-year-old black teenager, Michael Brown — young Somali-Americans in Minnesota have become increasingly involved in social justice issues.
Over that time, most of those activists have seen leaders from other faiths — priests and pastors and rabbis — on the frontlines of demonstrations, protesting in solidarity with black victims of police shootings or against the Trump administration's plan to ban some Muslim refugees from entering the country.
What young Somali-Americans don't see during such events, Hassan and Farah say, are imams and other mosque representatives. Nor do they often see them participating in political discourse — or taking public stands on policies that affect Muslims and communities of color. "The reason the mosques aren't involved in the Black Lives Matter isn't because they don't want to be part of it," Farah said. "It's because they are not aware of what's going on when it comes to social justice issues or politics."
Mohamed, the imam of Dar al-Hijrah, agrees with Farah's sentiment. Most of the mosques and imams want to partake in social justice activities, he said, but are often reluctant because they aren't familiar with the system. "Social activism isn't just something you do," he added. "It's learned. The churches have been part of social activism for centuries. It's very new to us. Somalia never had social activism before. … We're still learning."
All that said, Mohamed noted, mosques haven't been completely absent from advocating for certain causes. When Jamar Clark was shot and killed in north Minneapolis in 2015, he said, about 20 mosques wrote a statement in support of the victim, with Dar al-Hijrah being one of them. "But I understand we haven't done as much as we should have done," Mohamed said. "About a year ago, I talked to Islamic scholars about that and the need to be more involved in social justice issues."
Training future faith leaders
Some young Somali-Americans are trying to do their part to fill the divide between Muslim millennials and mosque leaders.
Hassan, a sophomore at Augsburg College, has been a faith leader even when he was a student at Minneapolis' South High School, where he founded a Muslim Student Association and advocated for a student prayer room in the school.
He's also part of The Brothers Club, a group of young Somali-American Muslims who produce weekly YouTube talk shows in English. In one video, published in May, aimed at high school students, Hassan and two other men talked about the importance of education.
"Those who are going to school, be grateful that you're going to school," he said in the clip. "Be grateful that you're waking up. Be grateful that you're in peace, not in war."
In another The Brothers Club YouTube video, uploaded on Thursday, Hassan discuses "seven common mistakes" to avoid on Eid al-Fitr, the Islamic celebration marking the end of Ramadan — information most Somali mosques would likely give in Somali.
Aside from providing Islamic lessons in English via social media, young Somali-Americans are traveling to the Middle East for Islamic studies. Several have recently returned to Minneapolis, and are often invited to speak at youth conferences cross the state.
Moreover, many Somali-American millennials are also attending the Twin Cities-based Islamic University of Minnesota, which provides religious education of all levels, including associate, bachelor's, master's and Ph.D. degrees.
Some mosques are also doing their part to train aspiring young Somali-American faith leaders. Farah, for example, said he's been encouraging young people to pursue education in Islamic studies to become the future leaders of the growing mosques in Minnesota. Beyond that, Farah provides young Muslim Americans with opportunities to get involved and even give the Friday lectures.
"We need to prepare people like Mohamed Hassan to become the future leaders of the community," he said. "They understand and can relate to our young generation. I hope that's a step other mosques will also take."

This development should
This development should surprise no one who has read about the histories of other immigrant groups or about Muslim immigrants in Europe.
The host country culture exerts a strong pull, and young people in particular want to be just like everyone else. I predict that when the original generation of Somali immigrants dies off and is no longer around to enforce Old Country customs, more and more young people will adopt Western dress. Not all, but many. When I tutored Somali immigrants in Portland, I saw young women trying to subvert the dress code, claiming, for instance, that a baseball cap was as good as a hijab, and it was only the older people who squelched that notion.
Yes, there have been problems in Britain and France, but it's the bad apples who make headlines. While Muslim immigrants rarely convert to Christianity, they do become secular, forget the Old Country language, and become more like than unlike their same-age peers.
Why many young Somali-American Muslims in Minnesota aren't going
Very helpful and interesting article.
Do more of these. The rest of us who are non Muslims need to better understand what is happening in the Muslim and Somali community.
I am quite interested in my family's immigration story but I find that many of my white older friends have forgotten or never knew their immigration stories including religious histories. They make quite absurd assumptions in such a straight face that it is almost laughable. One example is they assume: "Oh they all came here knowing English". Hah, unless you were from English speaking country. They also forget or did not know the Religious bigotries between even Christian groups.
So your stories help educate the rest of us who may not live among Muslims in our closest neighborhood.
thanks keep it up
As Karen noted

*Teachers from PTU affiliated colleges to be acquainted with new course contents
* Workshop to continue for Eight Days
Online PR News – 17-February-2011 – – Punjab Technical University and Lovely Professional University have joined hands to organize an Eight Days Workshop, on a new subject to be introduced 'Education in Human values' in the PTU affiliated colleges. The teachers from the PTU affiliated colleges are to be acquainted with new course contents and for this teachers from Amritsar, Gurdaspur, Kapurthala, Jalandhar, Tarntaran attended the training programme being conducted at LPU Campus up to 8th February, 2011. Drafting a broader road map for better implementation and growth of this concept, it has been devised that, at least, two registrations are mandatory from each college. At present, more than 65 teachers are attending the workshop with great enthusiasm. A team comprising of Famous alumnus of IIT Kanpur, Prof Ganesh P Bagaria, great Educator Mr Rajul Asthana, Dr Rajeev Sangal (IIIT Hyderabad), Prof Gaur and other renowned personalities are helping in smooth conduction of the workshop.
The Chancellor of LPU, Mr Ashok Mittal and the Vice Chancellor of PTU, Dr Rajneesh Arora inaugurated the workshop by lighting of the lamp. The Director General of LPU, Er HR Singla, Prof Gaur, Prof Sangal and other dignitaries were prominently present at this time. Elaborating the need of the hour, Mr Mittal said: "Now-a-days human values are missing from the Graduates. But, these are very important for them as they have to play vast ethical roles in the society for its growth on humane lines. Moreover, the companies are also looking for the job-seekers embedded fully with such values. PTU has really made an important landmark, in this regard, by taking a great initiative in introducing the much needed new course related to human values. Our former President Dr Abdul Kalam has termed it as a 'Teachable Human Value Based Skill' which will inevitably bring a totally different order in human relationship and, therefore, society as a whole." He further added: " LPU is already offering course close to this and in due course of time will look into strengthening this course."
Telling about the new subject, Dr Arora from PTU said: "This subject focuses on what a human being is, what is purposeful and meaningful for him/her, what is the aim of human being and how one can meet this aim. This elaborates on what role he/she has to play as responsible human being at the level of individual, family, society and nature." It is worth noticing that some of the initiatives in Value Education have also been efficiently taken by UP Technical University (UPTU), IIT-Delhi, IIT Kanpur, Chhattisgarh Government, NIT-Raipur, People from different walks of urban life, Social workers from NGOs and many such others. In fact, the workshop is conducted as a dialogue, free from any value prescriptions or do's and don'ts.

Chapter One.
A/N: I am writing it in Ruthies POV, like she is writing everything down in a journal, so if this just gets confusing I'm sorry.
Dear Diary, Yeah, I know I have wrote anythign down latley, I have been busy. Getting my mind off things, well I guess I could tell you, I am sort of going to be seeing someone, and his name is Paul, he's 17 and he asked for my number. I have gave it to him and he called me up tonight, I am actually kind of excited. Even though, I still miss Martin, I say I'm over it..but I am really not. But Martin wont be a problem anymore since he's probably never coming back.
So Tomorrow is the day, the day my family has been dreading, well most of them anyways. Simon and Rose are getting married. Shocked its actually happening? Yeah I am too. It's weird Mom actually 'loves' Rose now. I didnt see that one coming at all. I just wish Simon would just realize that hes too good for her, and realize that he doesnt love her. I remember when I first met Deena, she was Simon's one true love. Well until she pretty much dumped him for some guy that dumped her. I dont know anymore. I just miss my brother, and I want him to be happy. But not with her. I know that sounds mean, but its how everyone feels. Its just so complicated.
My head is starting to hurt from all of this thinking, I am going to go. -Ruthie.
As she closes her book and falls to her bed.
The next morning, she wakes up as the sun is shining in her window, she gets up, takes a shower, gets dressed, and heads downstairs.
"Morning" She says to Sam and David.
"Morning" The say in unison.
"Where's mom and dad?" she says pouring some milk in a glass.
"Talking outside" Sam says.
"To Sandy" David says.
"What?" Sandy is here? Why is she here? Is Martin with her?" she drops the glass to the counter and runs over and peeks out the window to see whats going on.
Sandy, Annie, and Eric are all sitting on the steps. Sandy is holding the baby.
"He is beautiful" Annie says looking at the baby.
"Now Rose doesnt want you, her best friend to come to the wedding?" Eric asked.
"No, and I want to be there for her and Simon." Sandy says almost crying.
"Sandy, is everything okay?" Annie asks.
She drys her tear and looks up. "Everything will be fine, if I could just talk to Simon, to maybe talk to him. But he isn't answering my calls."
"Has Martin tried talking to him?" Eric asked.
"Martin, Martin and I aren't exactly speaking either." Sandy said looking around and noticing Ruthie spying out the window.
Sandy gives Ruthie a look, a knowing look about Martin. But Ruthie brushes it off and walks away. Annie and Eric look back to see what Sandy was looking at.
"How's she been?" Sandy asked.
"She has her days, good ones and bad ones." Annie says.
"Where is Martin?" Eric asks hoping he isn't in town.
"Hes not with me if thats what your wondering." Sandy replied.
"Martin has been great for this baby, acting like a father and everything. But---me and him just got into this huge fight, and it just ended up badly, I havent spoken to him in three weeks."
"And isn't that when Rose said you couldn't come to the wedding?" Annie asked.
"Yeah, but it wasn't about that, really. Martin still comes over to help with the baby, he wants this lil boy to feel like he has a father, but he just doesnt talk to the mother. He is going to a community college and taking some classes. He's a good guy. He's just hurt." Sandy says looking down at the baby.
Annie and Eric look at eachother and sigh.
Ruthie is in her room now. Clutching her pillow tightly. Sandy knocks on the door.
"Can I come in?" Sandy asks
Ruthie looks up and wipes a falling tear from her face.
"What are you doing here?"
"I came to talk to your mom and dad to try and see if they could sneak me into the wedding today, Rose wont let me go. I didn't come here to make you feel any worse then you already do about Martin. I didn't think I would see you until tonight. And then--well even then I would stay out of your way. Ruthie, Martin and I, we are not together."
Ruthie just looks at her.
"Why should I believe you? You took him away from me. He left me. I loved him (she pauses) I love him. And he still left me. For you. For you and that baby." Tears flowing now.
Sandy moves over and sits next to Ruthie.
"I know this may not help but I am telling you the truth Martin, and I we are not together, we never have been." She hugs her tightly and gets up and walks away.
Ruthie is just sitting there alone, again, thinking about Martin.
Sandy goes downstairs and makes a phone call.
"Look I know you aren't talking to me. But the least you should do is pick up the phone and at least listen to what I have to say. There was once a point that we were sort of friends, just pick up the phone or meet me at the church in an hour and a half."
A/N: Should I continue or not.?

.velvet + double ruffles.
4 comments:
This is the cutest! I absolutely love the ruffles on your top! Such a feminine, fun outfit!ReplyDelete
I love how the ruffles give this shirt a more feminine feel, Jensyn!!ReplyDelete
Jen, this is the cutest outfit! I love the velvet and chambray and the ruffles are so darling! Being an Army wife, I am all too familiar with the feeling of single-momming. In fact, my husband is gone this week again and today is my 5 year old's birthday. It is quite the struggle as he is not understanding why Daddy is not "coming to his birthday". I wish I had great tips for getting through it all, but all I've got is this...one day at a time, stick to a routine, lots of FaceTime, find your tribe, kids are resilient, and you've got this!ReplyDelete
