Mission 2: Echoes of the Dominion
Location: Runabout
Timeline: 30 March, 2394 - 1400 Hours
=^=Thank you for the clearance, Empok Nor. This is runabout Coral Sea departing.=^= Malcom said and then toggled the comms off. He sighed and glanced over at his second officer who was tapping furiously at her console.
"Where is she?" He asked
Nici looked over her console defeated, "I was able to get there warp trail Sir, but they have at least a half an hour head start on a faster ship. Hopefully the Ensigns can get there and stall so we can get back there in time. We are ready for launch Sir." Nici looked back at the station and off to the route and a knot in her gut told her something wrong was about to happen.
"I understand, lieutenant. All we can do is chase her at this point. But I'm not going to just wait around and watch my ship run off to god knows where," Malcom said. He pushed the throttle forward and the Coral Sea launched from the exterior pad. Empok Nor Ops had opened a wide path for him in the direction that the Firebird had taken. He increased speed to maximum impulse before he should have but he didn't care. The shuttle hummed under his fingers, the engines warming to their task as Malcom cut all the corners he could. He was an old pro with the runabout and he knew the strengths, weaknesses and tricks when piloting it. He disengaged all the engine safeties, setting an alert for when they achieved 120% of nominal output.
They raced forward, breaking the safe warp threshold faster than Fantome and the Firebird had. He pulled in Nici's data on the warp trail and matched their course to it.
"Entering Warp," he said and the viewport blurred. Malcom sighed and looked over to his co-pilot and second officer. "Did you get anything on the sensors? Did Jackson make it on board?"
Jackson, thought Nici to herself scanning the console in front of her. "I hope Sir, but it looks like the data here is inconclusive." Nici looked at the power readout on the small runabout. She had learned the power systems for these small vessels when she was still a cadet but she hadn't messed with one for a while. "Sir, if I remember correctly we, if we disengaged the safeties and transfer all power to our warp field I may be able to create a bubble that will withstand warp 7. It's all about the perfect balance between power to the deflectors creating our warp field and power to the engines for an extra push. The problem is I'd have to disengage life support, not enough power on these old Danubes."
Malcom didn't even pause. "Do it. Whatever it takes to get this tub moving faster. I'd tear out stuff and throw it outside if it would make a difference." He plotted a course correction. "Looks like they are headed to DS9."
DS9, doesn't make sense, thought Nici. There was to much of a Starfleet presence there. "Oh no Sir," said Nici. "I think Mr. Fantome is planning on taking the Firebird through the wormhole. We need to try and get a coded message to DS9 that Mr. Fantome won't be able to intercept."
"Good call. You worry about the warp bubble, I will get the message out. I'll use my old academy codes. They are still active. Fantome won't recognize them at all. At the very least, they can get the Defiant up and ready to go," Malcom said. He watched Nici for a few moments, making sure that she wasn't distracted and then typed out a brief message to the DS9 commander. "Come on, crew," he said under his breath.
Nici sighed with relief. It felt good not being the one having to make the decisions and having a Captain that listened when you found a new problem. She had been in the Captain's chair when the Firebird last went through the Celestial Temple. She just hoped they could make it before she did again. Through all of that Nici found the power needed and turned off all the safeties on the warp deflectors. The warp bubble of the Coral Sea was closer to that of a Wallace class then of a runabout and they leveled off at Warp 7.2.
"I've got her to Warp 7.2, Sir," Nici said. "At this rate we should be reaching DS9 a half hour behind the Firebird, Sir. I've had to shut off life support we have about 10 hours of air so it might be best we keep the chatter down to a minimum."
"Why is it everyone finds ingenious ways to tell me to shut up?" Malcom said with a smile. "Am I really that bad?" He took a few minutes to examine their path, checking for spacial anomalies or reported wreckage. Finding it clear, he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes. "I use less oxygen when I sleep. So. You're in charge for a while." With that, he squirmed once to get comfortable and immediately fell into a deep sleep.
Nici looked over at the man sleeping next to her and smiled. He could sleep with his ship having been hijacked. He could rest when his crew may be in danger. The level of confidence in the rest of the crew must have been insane.
[One Hour Later]
Malcom's eyes snapped open. "Report."
The shuttle had just dropped out of warp. The air had grown stale from the life support being shut off as Nici readjusted power settings fresh air pushed into the Cabin. Nici pressed a few more buttons and turned to the Captain, "The Firebird has dropped out of warp. She's on screen, Sir. It looks like the crew was able to stop her."
Malcom ran a scan of the ship and frowned. "It looks like they ejected the warp core. I'm also getting some weird residual energy readings. Let me access the computer." He was glad to see that the shuttle's computer tied in with the Firebird but he whistled at the response. "Massive damage to the main computer. Lets see if I can get the shuttlebay to open."
For a moment it looked like nothing would happen. He could tell that the fusion reactors that ran the impulse engines were straining to handle the emergency power draw. They floated for a minute, then two. Finally the shuttlebay door began creeping open.
"I guess we know who is in charge. Fantome must be in custody. Or worse." He spared a glance at Nici and moved the shuttle inside the ship. He set them down with his customary gracefulness.
"Lets go see what kind of mess we have to deal with, shall we?"
Nici saw the same reports of the main computer damaged. She dreaded the hours of work that it would require to repair it. I hope everyone is ok, thought Nici. "I'm ready when you are," said Nici as she engaged thrusters to take them into the airlock.

Man, I wish I could take a nap like the Captain does, ha! I love seeing these two characters interact so much with each other and people outside of the ship. It makes the galaxy feel larger to have people outside the crew work with you two to get you back aboard.

Amy Keiter of Beaverton is famous — and not only since her commander father Rob Donatz can park his 1950 Cessna 195 with an considerable tail circle to bursts of applause.
Yes, a Cessna 195 is flattering stupendous, powered by a Jacobs 300-horsepower radial engine that creates a rigging heads salivate.
But Amy is famous in her possess right due to a mainstay she submitted to The Oregonian behind in 2002 about their initial knowledge during a Wallowa County Fly-In. Back then, a eventuality was nowhere nearby a stream size, with scores of pilots in rare, easy or only plain engaging planes and hundreds on hundreds of visitors.
Nevertheless, a Joseph airmen put on a heck of a uncover behind in 2002, and Keiter and Donatz were blissful they came with friends that year. Their friend's Cessna 182 "crapped out" during a event, refusing to start when it came time to leave.
They were all on their approach to remote Moose Creek in Idaho for a camping outing to applaud Amy and Rob's initial anniversary. Now, stranded during Joseph Airport after a show, they gifted "the affability of strangers" so unusual it felt like a novel.
"People were only like crazy nice," Amy recalls. "We woke adult a morning after when a plantation lorry pulled adult and a man from Enterprise said, 'I listened we had engine difficulty and we suspicion I'd expostulate over and see what we could do.'"
The problem incited out to be some-more than a pilots and their new proffer automechanic could understanding with, so eventually Rob only done dual trips to Moose Creek, hauling in a gals on a initial trip. The second craft was remade by a time they returned from a camping trip.
Amy, a former reporter, wrote about that supernatural knowledge for The Oregonian, and a Chief Joseph Flyers unequivocally listened about it from pilots all over a state.
The name game
This year Amy and Rob returned with Rob's new plane, Gracie.
When Rob purchased a craft he took smoothness of it in a margin out in remote Missouri. Amy removed how he only stood and looked during it and looked during it. The object began to go down and it started to get dark. Finally Amy said, "Say good night, Gracie." And a craft was named.
"She's a driver," Amy said. "We take her all kinds of places and have adventures."
On a highway again
Rob got his pilot's permit in Torrance, Calif., before he could drive, and he's a unequivocally good commander — declare a imagination parking trick. This year alone a integrate has taken Gracie to Sanoma, Calif.; Kelowna, British Columbia; Friday Harbor in a San Juan Islands; and Joseph. They headed behind to a Puget Sound area after a event.
This, too, is standard commander stuff. Many pilots came with tents, folding bicycles and even inflatable rafts congested into a storage area.
John Dunlap and Robyn Holdman of Sisters, Ore., unpacked their folding bikes during a Joseph Airport for a outing to a Bronze, Blues and Brews festival during Joseph City Park.
John named his 1973 Cessna Skywagon 180 Betty Jean after his late mother, who died only a few days before he bought a plane.
"She never got to go adult in her," Dunlap said. "But now she goes adult with me any time we fly."
Late bloomers
Not all pilots are immature guys, either. Many folks don't get their possibility to get adult in a atmosphere until after in life.
Marty Ables, mother of Wallowa County Flyers Association President Bill Ables, pronounced she hasn't been a pilot's mother for long, and a Ables mostly take tiny trips from Portland to Joseph and back. But she loves sitting right subsequent to a window and a feeling of unresolved in space and a sound of a engine.
"All these planes have good sounding engines," she said, gesturing down a runway during a collection of planes.
Earning those wings
Stories of prolonged journeys to apropos a commander also were common.
Dennis Smith of Enterprise says he stopped brief of removing his permit though went adult to Alaska as a fishing beam and has flown brush planes a lot.
"I soloed and everything," he recalled, "but we left for Alaska before we got my full time in for a license."
He loves a Joseph Fly-In.
"This is a good small event," he said. "I saw a P51 drifting around and we said, 'Oh, yeah. That's this weekend.'"
Smith went adult in a Chief Joseph Flyers Cessna 172 plane, flown by Barney Locke, a late Northwest Airlines and Sri Lankan Airlines pilot. Smith was all smiles when he came down.
Emmet Wold of both Hermiston and Joseph brought his "adopted nephew" Greg, 9, with him for his initial time in a sky and went adult with Tim Locke, boss of a North East Aviation Foundation and former commander for Delta, Northwest and Skywest.
Emmet has been a tyro commander for many years and has upsurge a lot, though he hasn't nonetheless warranted his pilot's license.
"Soon," he said. "Soon."
Biggest entertainment yet
The atmosphere uncover was a bit singular this year, though a outrageous throng was awed by a opening of commander Mark Peterson in his North American P-51 Mustang Diamondback.
The considerable warplane was a favorite of a throng on a basement of a story and neat look.
"These planes are most easier to fly than a stories told about them would lead we to believe," Peterson said. "They were carrying bidding and a outrageous volume of fuel when they were fight planes, and that accounted for their repute of formidable handling. This craft is easy to fly."
The Diamondback served her nation until 1958 and afterwards went on to seem in atmosphere races, winning a 1984 Unlimited Gold Race during a Reno Air Races with a speed of 437.621 miles per hour, underneath a name Stiletto. Peterson bought and renamed a craft in 2005 and shows it during fly-ins any year.
Lessons are accessible during Joseph Airport, and it's deliberate one of a cheapest places to learn to fly.
Andy Mckee of Eagle Cap Flight School offers full instruction. Call a airfield and leave a summary during 541-263-2665 or email email@example.com.
High propagandize module gaining speed
The North East Oregon Aviation Foundation is a new nonprofit dedicated to compelling aviation in northeast Oregon, quite among high propagandize students. This year's Fly-In lifted $2,000 for advancing that work and for scholarships. The initial grant was given to Sebastian Hobbs of Lostine, who attended a Treasure Valley Community College aeronautics stay this month.

Israel Day 9
Well unfortunately our time in Jerusalem has come to an end. This is especially sad because that means that we lose our amazing driver, Moshe, and our more than amazing guide, Abraham. This is not high on our list. But we still have more to see so we must move on.
Today we started off bright and freakin' early again. We loaded up the bus and made our way to the Israeli/Jordanian border. By the time we got there we were ready to be out of the bus and see some stuff, but we had to go through all the Israeli security and then load up on a new bus on the Jordanian side. Upon arriving at the border one of our girls and my uncle took some pictures and film of the guards and were immediately pulled out of the bus and had their cameras examined and were questioned about what they were doing! It was pretty intense for us, especially since we didn't know we weren't allowed to take pictures. Good times. Finally we all made it through the security, got our Jordanian stamps in our Passports, said goodbye to Abraham, and got on the bus headed into Jordan.
The first real stop of the day was Mount Nebo. For those of you in rural Oklahoma that may read this, no, that isn't anywhere near the Nebo that you know. Mount Nebo is the mountain that God brought Moses to the top of to show him the Promised Land that he would not be able to enter. The view here was amazing! Unfortunately for us it was a pretty hazy day, but it was still really cool. From the top you can see the Dead Sea, Jerusalem, Jericho and the Jordan River Valley. Pretty amazing. Also off to the side outside of the Promised Land you can see the Spring of Moses where God told Moses to speak to the rock and water would flow but he struck it instead. I would have loved to go down and and drink from that one too!
Next up after a not so brief stop at a hand crafted Mosaic place where they were all car salesmen about their items we went to an old crusader castle called Shobak Castle. This was really cool because they basically let you explore all the dark rooms and such but at the same time warn you about the snakes and scorpions that may be in there as well! Ewww. I don't do snakes or scorpions. That's just not good times for me. This was the perfect day to view this castle, too, because the breeze was blowing and so the sun beating down on us didn't feel as hot. My favorite part was a staircase that led down to what we are told is the dungeon, but I couldn't find the bottom. Flashlight and all, and I still didn't reach the bottom before the parents started freaking out because they didn't wanna have to come down and save us! It was crazy! We went so far down that the stairs basically hadn't been excavated and became just a ramp. So cool!
Then it was off to the hotel in Petra to have some dinner and crash for one more day in the Holy Land before we had to get on that dreaded flight home. Enjoy the pictures!

Once signed in, they can also browse through various problems, or just ask around for tips by other users. All you need to register yourself on the site is a valid email address.
There are many chess players who also like to keep themselves updated on the various chess tournaments around the world. The Week in Chess is one of the best sites which provides you with extensive coverage on all major chess tournaments worldwide. For those who are looking to learn the latest tactics and strategies to improve their game, this is one resource that will definitely help you. There is no easier way of learning to play chess then by learning from the masters of the game.
Stand Alone Software
For those who are looking for basic instructions on chess, the following are considered to be the best options when it comes to learning how to play chess.
This is probably one of the best known softwares for learning how to play chess. The software is widely sold worldwide and contains a game module and three sets of lessons to help users learn the game. The software is also available in several editions such as, the Grandmaster Edition and a version called "The Art of Learning." There's also a less expensive version called "The 10th Edition" for those who wish to spend less than ten dollars. What makes ChessMaster unique is that it offers all the bells and whistles that learners enjoy. This includes, various display options where users get to choose the type and color of the chessboard they are going to play on. The huge array of options coupled with informative lessons on how to improve one's game makes ChessMaster a great tool for beginners.
The lessons that are provided by ChessMaster are divided into three segments, the ChessMaster Series, the Larry Christiansen course, and the Josh Waitzkin course. For those who are just starting out with learning the game of chess, the ChessMaster Series will be a good place to start. The lessons you will find here are systematic, clear and to the point, making it one of the best chess resources. Younger students also get to take advantage of exclusive ChessMaster features, especially the one where all the basic rules and tactics of playing chess are read out to the user. Also, after each lesson, students are asked to solve various problems by choosing their moves on the board. This level of interactiveness allows players to progress at their own pace through lessons that are set according to their skill set.
The ChessMaster Series is divided into three segments, beginners, intermediate and advanced. The beginners lessons offers those who are new to the game clear and detailed instructions of how each piece moves on the chess board, what are the basic tactics one can use in a game, and how a player can learn to be strategic. The best thing about using ChessMaster Series is that the interface is interactive and easy to use. The ChessMaster Series also tracks student progress and helps them develop the skills that are thought in each lesson before they can progress to the next.
The Intermediate lessons provide tips from Bruce Pandolfini, a famous chess coach. There's also a rating exam designed by Pandolfini that helps users assess their overall progress based on a series of challenges. The Advanced lessons allows users to review the moves in famous chess games and make the correct move, before showing the user the actual move that was made by the grandmaster.
The software offers a great module where students get to play against dozens of opponents according to their skill set. This exposes them to various styles of playing and enables players to learn new tactics and strategies. There is also a coach who will warn players if they are making a bad move, and then suggest an appropriate one for them. The ChessMaster software also offers other specialized tools and resources that are aimed at the more experienced player. The software also includes analysis of various famous games for users to study. But these are only for students who have been playing chess for a while and are familiar with the basics of the game.
This is another software that is available for PC and Macs. TLAK offers exceptional quality when it comes to the language being used and the instructions that are given. The software offers a treasure trove of informational content for beginners and advanced players. This is also the reason why Think Like a King is the only scholastic software that has been endorsed by the United States Chess Federation. The only difference between TLAK and ChessMaster is that the former does not use snazzy visuals, but prefers a clear and simple chess board interface for their lessons. There's also no soundtrack included in the lessons unlike ChessMaster. This may be a good thing since it allows the player to concentrate more on the lesson rather than being serenaded by the music. To be fair, the soundtrack in ChessMaster is an optional function.
Think Like a King offers seven electronic books (or volumes) where chess has been explained in the form of text and interactive exercises. These lessons are referred to as 'Workouts' and provide the user with in-depth information on the various tactics and strategies that they need to know of while playing chess. Volume one offers beginner's guidance, volume two covers the basic tactics, while volumes three and four teach students how to focus on openings and develop a mindset that enables them to play keeping the endgame in mind. The last three lessons offered in TLAK are focused on advanced players and covers additional topics that are more complex in nature.
Those who are new to TLAK get to take a tour of the tutorials and other game workouts before getting started.
Chess Tactics for Beginners by Convetka
This software is based on a book by Sergey Ivashchenko. Like the best-seller it is based on, this book focuses more on the different tactics that one can use during game play. The program features around 1,300 exercises that focuses on various tactics and strategies in the game. The program also generates statistics and bar graphs that shows users of their progress. A build in chess engine and visual hints are two other major features of this software.
Learn To Play Chess with Fritz and Chesster
This software program is targeted to beginners and mainly kids between the ages of 6 and 12. The software features various programs that cover the rules of the game, such as pawn promotion and castling, and some common checkmates and ways to finish a game. Since this is a program that has been developed mainly for kids, the storyline is told in a cute cartoon, and revolves around the efforts of two children (one the son of the white king) who must learn to play chess by going to a chess training academy to pick up the skills needed to face a challenge posed by the black king. This program is a solid introduction for beginners who want to learn the basics of playing chess. The program is fun and interesting and can engage students for hours, you can see the chess video here:

I work with a man named Mike at the pizza shop who is probably in his late twenties, early thirties but has a good amount of gray hair already coming in. It's usually just the two of us behind the counter talking about pointless and random things to pass the time. He tends to mumble a lot so most of the time I'm stuck smiling and nodding and saying "oh yeah?" as he continues. He tells me the craziest stories that I can't help but think are not actually as true as he tells me they are. Like the time he said once a lady put her cat in a microwave to dry it; I made him stop before he could continue but he only laughed and proceeded to tell me the poor cat's fate. He's not really the type to show emotion, so whenever I would say something that is meant to be sad, he kind of laughs nervously and looks at his feet. He's a strange guy, but he's nice. I've realized he's actually very smart and whenever I ask him how he knows that or where he's heard it he almost would always reply "the Discovery channel" or "the History channel". I guess he watches a lot of TV because his stories always shock me in the most random ways.
One slow day at the pizzeria brought us into a conversation about cars. It was the day I got sent home after driving all the way to the DMV. He laughed as I continued on.
"It's not that big a deal I guess, it's not like I have a car to drive yet anyways." He looked down at his feet and then smiled and took a couple seconds to respond.
"I saw a car for twelve hundred, big van, Chevy. Like mine." Out of curiosity and sheer boredom I decided to ask him what kind of van.
"Where's your car? Parked in the back?" I pointed out the back door where his brother and my boss, Mario, was standing just outside talking to an old man.
"Hahyeah," he said in almost one syllable. I started making my way to the back and I glanced out the door as I waved to Mario. Mario is very friendly and has much better people skills than Mike. I guess that's why Mike sticks to making the pizzas and Mario does just about everything else.
"Hey Lacey!" He said with a warm smile and big wave. Mike still thinks my name is Stacey.
"Mike! Are you talking about that huge dark green van on the left?!" I said as I laughed in disbelief. As if it would be even a remote possibility that I would ever consider driving around that huge thing!
"No the one over there- wait yeah that one!" I laughed and just told him how ridiculous it was; the thought of me driving to school in a big sketchy Chevy van. We laughed.
"I'll get a car someday I guess.." I said.
"Better late than never."
"You got that right." I stared out the shop window at the cars passing by and did one of those laughs that kind of came out as just a breathe of air. I leaned on the counter and held up my face with my arm, deep in thought.

Chindi in Karsog Valley, is only about 100 kms from Shimla. Away from the buzzing sound of city, this small village sits quietly in the lap of nature. Packed with apple orchards and blessed with divine beauty of nature, one can also find several small temples near the village.
The name Karsog is derived from Kar Shok (mourning). Local folklore says, the Pandavas spent their Van Vaas in these parts. Numerous temples that dot the region dating back to about the same era, somewhat corroborate this theory.
The place is off the beaten track yet many tourists who have an urge to explore a hidden destination visit this stunning place and enjoy the glimpse of the wide Karsog Valley which lies below Chindi. This place is surrounded by Apple orchards, which looks even more beautiful during winters. Some of the important temples that you can visit during your visit to Chindi are Mamleshwara Mahadev, Kamakshya Mata, Mahunag, Ardhnarishwara, Aledi Mahadev, Palinag at Nalagali, and Churag temple.
If you want to feel the beauty of nature and peace of mind than this place is a perfect destination for you, it will revitalize your heart and mind out of its astonishing climate and terrain. Summer time in Chindi is mild and one can wear Cottons and light woollens. In winter, the sunny days give pleasant feeling. Night time is cold, therefore heavy clothing is preferred.

wow I can't believe you have kids right through to 10.30pm - no wonder you need those lazy days. You must be worn out.

hi presious! oooh, allergies, or not, i'd surely need a break after a day with kids until 10:30 p.m.!! you are woman, hear me roar!!
thanks so much for your sweetness on my blog! i saw your inquiry about my books, and i must admit that no one has ever mentioned what they do when their journals are full! i think that most just keep them together for future reference...to maybe see how they've grown with their art skills, or writing skills, or maybe spiritually...i guess it all depends on what type of journal it is. also, many people have asked about my stamps...i'm considering making them for sale in my etsy shop, and i'll let you know if i decide to do that. thanks for your nice comments about my artwork...i really appreciate it! :)

You're right, all this introspection is good for us after all!

Yes, I am quite exhausted by the end of the day. It is so very important that I stay balanced as much as possible. That in itself can be a challenge, lol! I'm thankful I have work in today's times! :)
At one time I did write in a journal. I had forgotten about them until we moved. Well, I took the time to read them and I did not like my life at the time I wrote them. It was pretty scary and sad. I was so depressed and anxious. It did show how much growth I had achieved.
Today, I would feel much better and much different about journaling. I just wouldn't want anyone to get a hold of it. One should be able to put the best and the worst of "anything" in their journal.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Presious aka Lori ;)

"But we don't love them hoes" ~ Snoop
Recently one of my homies was telling me about his (first time) encounter with a prostitute. I'm not talking about no street corner hooker here…I'm talking high-end whore…big bucks…classy…on some "how can I service you this evening, sir?" type shit…the kind that might even be smarter than you (you get the idea). In short, homie was a happy customer. Of course, this isn't the first time one of my dudes has acquired services.
I remember some years ago I was having a conversation with a disgruntled friend about how difficult this one particular woman in his life was, and he remarked how "no wonder so-and-so have started paying for sex". The crux of his argument was that it's becoming too arduous to get it done the old fashioned way. You meet a girl, you talk to her for a bit, then you ask her out. She says yes, so you take her our for a fancy dinner to impress her. You pay for this fancy dinner, listen to her ramblings, acting interested and engaged, when really you just want to get to it already. If you're lucky, she comes back to your place. But god-forbid you say ONE wrong thing, or do the slightest thing to put her off — it's game over.
So now you've spent the money, wasted the time, and still no ass. And this is why so-and-so are relying more and more on ladies of the night…because you're guaranteed to get the bang for your buck. It's a tough situation, because one can argue both sides. My disgruntled friend had a point insofar as how hard it can be, and how some women can lead a man on or just play games. There's a fine line between playing hard to get and being impossible to please. But on the other hand, taking a woman out to dinner and listening to her ramblings is a normal part of interacting with the opposite sex. In some circles I think it's called 'courting', and it's how you build the comfort level that eventually (hopefully) results in the intimacy. However, being the microwave generation, we want what we want, when we want it and just how we want it. And anything outside of those parameters inevitably becomes a problem.
I think somewhere along the line, we lost the ability to communicate, tolerate and empathize with the opposite sex. We want the object of our affection (or just desire) to be one-part mind reader, one-part robot. Man or woman, I think we're all guilty of this to a certain degree. There's a lot to be said for why prostitution exists, and the reason it's called the oldest profession in history. And perhaps in many ways its definition, role and boundaries have broadened quite a bit these days.
Everyone has their opinion on the subject — mine is that prostitution should be legalized (or decriminalized…whatever, I'm no damn lawyer) like it is in Europe. And not because I think it'd be such a great statement of our society, but rather for the advantages that would come with regulating it – socioeconomic and health-wise… But beyond the politics of sex (industry), I'm just wondering what all this means for my generation. Yes, it's great that we have so many options at our disposal, but the bad news is — we have so many options at our disposal. And really, how much of ourselves are we losing in the process of always trying to get what we want? Perhaps in skipping some steps, we're missing important parts of the journey. And could it be that the more "equal" men and women become, the more distant we grow? I don't know…but the more I listen and watch, the more it seems like something is lacking. Balance? Acceptance? Maybe a bit of both…or maybe a good start would be having fewer taboos.
by : third rail
One Response to "Reflections External"
You make a good point about the "convenience" of prostitution and yet when you look around on the weekends, you can see that men(and women) also enjoy the anticipation/chase/conquest drama. So in that regard I think we already have balance…I see acceptance as the next great frontier. Nice post.

FINALLY....a marathon result that I'm fully satisfied with AND where I didn't have to take any pits stops! Man, it's so much easier to keep a good rhythm and pace when you don't stop.
I didn't have high expectations at all for this race. I have been sick probably 40% of 2014 so far with that terrible cold/flu and then last week with shingles. My knee has also been bothering me and caused me to miss some mileage in the buildup. So, before even hearing about the bad weather forecast I was set on lowering my expectations (2:20) and shooting for the best place I could get (hopefully a win). But once I saw the forecast I was even more set on not worrying about time at all. I wanted a conservative start and just go from there being ready to race late in the race.
The forecast was basically a monsoon with 15 MPH headwind. It sounded awful. Luckily when I woke up the wind wasn't 15 MPH (although it was still a 5-7 MPH headwind the entire 26.2) and it hadn't rained yet. Dave picked me up and we met Jason and were off to the start line. I had 4 pre-race bathroom visits and an emergency 5th right before the start. Certainly that would be good enough right? No warm-up.
Minutes before the start, it started raining hard, and the rain continued through mile 5 or so and then it wasn't really a factor after that. For the first 5 miles or so Jason, Clyde, and I were trading leads in the wind every half mile or so. But, there had to be like 15 guys still right on our tails up to the hills at mile five. Splits 1-4 (NOT garmin splits; I knew from last year that garmin would measure this course 1/4 mile long, so I switched my autolap to 2 miles and just hit the split button on the mile marks) 5:30 5:23 5:27 5:17
Jason and I got a little separation at five on the hills, still switching leads to break the wind. Jason got a bit antsy on mile 6 on the hill and I advised him to relax and conserve a bit of energy. I nursed a GU for 1.5 miles on this stretch. Miles 5-6 5:40 5:49
Now you have two more miles of good downhill and then it's relatively flat (actually downhill, but so little downhill that it seems flat). Jason and I still switching but at 8 we hear footsteps and have company before 9. Miles 7-9 5:13 5:37 (this split had to be long and the next short as this miles was good downhill - garmin had this split as 1.04 miles and the next as 0.99) 5:06
I lead for a good deal here thinking Jason was tired and wanting him to stay with me as long as possible, but after awhile he was like, "Hey dude, I can take it now". So I was happy to oblige; meanwhile third place guy is drafting like mad off us, but also breathing hard enough that I wasn't overly concerned. The three of us came through together at the half in 1:11:17 I think (haven't checked for sure). Miles 10-13 10:42 (no 10-mile marker on course so 10 & 11) 5:22 5:28
At 14 I went to pull Gu number two from my pocket and dropped it...dang. Luckily, I had a third I had packed and I pulled it out and nursed it for the next 1.5 miles (my new nutrition strategy, just a tiny bit at a time). Also at 14 we run by Jason's family and he gets a shot of andrenaline and drops me and third place guy. This strung us out and Jason had 8 seconds on me by 15 and I had 10 or so on third. Mile 14 5:23
The Gu started to kickin and I felt a resurgance. I thought, "Only 12 to go, I can do that at this pace. That's just barely further than a 10-mile aerobic builder at a slightly slower pace". I measured gap to Jason at 8 seconds and set out to lessen it. I think I caught up to him by 16.5 or so and said, "Let's go buddy!" After that though I think I put 5-10 seconds a mile on him for the next few miles. Miles 15-17 5:21 5:19 5:18
Now I was thinking, "I'm winning a marathon! Just keep this pace and it's yours. Don't let up. Keep on it, it's just a 9-mile builder". I just kept clicking off 5:20s give or take a few seconds and I felt pretty good. My pace was fairly constant the rest of the way.
With three to go, I started really getting encouragement from the half-marathoners I was passing. Grabbed a gel from aid station 23 and took 1/3 as a precaution, though I felt pretty good minus some calf fatigue. The last few miles dragged on but the pace stayed pretty good. I felt I could've gone another 3-4 miles if someone put a gun to my head, but obviously was more than happy to be done.
As I came through the last 2 tenths my parents stepped out a bit and I high-fived my Dad. I was so happy! I let out a scream as I crossed the line and was really elated. 2:21:42! Are you kidding me? I really didn't think that was in the cards at all today. Miles 18-26 5:20 5:20 5:22 5:19 5:19 5:26 5:29 5:16 5:31 (another garmin 1.04) and 5:07 pace for that last .22.
The Ogden Crew:
My biggest fans and support crew (Amy won Women's 10k!)
And the top three men, all with baby in hand
No running - my legs but especially my knee could use some off days. I felt pretty good immediately after the race but that 5 hour drive to Vegas, sleep, and then 7 hour drive the next day really tightened the legs up a ton. And by Sunday afternoon in the car almost home my knee was pretty sore and tender.
I am the most confident I've been to date that I don't HAVE to qualify for trials via half marathon route. I used to think if I wanted to go I'd have to break that 1:05, because 2:18 seemed out of reach. But now both seem obtainable.
I am anxious to get going again but really need to exercise patience and caution this week and get healed up. I'm historically terrible at taking downtime after marathons but I will try my best.
2.15 very light miles to get some blood flow to the leg muscles followed by another mile of walking, abs, stretching (which happens like once a year for me), and some pushups.
1 mile walk, 1 mile jog, and another 1 mile walk with Dave on base. Legs feeling a lot better and I'd consider resuming running tomorrow lightly, but I think the knee still needs time. We'll see tomorrow...play it by ear.
3 miles easy with Dave. We were planning on a walk, but it was pouring rain and we would've gotten way too cold. My legs weren't sore, but they were TIRED. Also my knee is not back to 100%.
So, with that in mind I think I'm shutting it down completely the rest of the week. I was going to pace Amy in the 10-miler, but now I don't think it's a good idea. I've had a few miles of easy jogging that has brought blood to the muscles and helped with recovery. But for the rest of the week I don't see a benefit anymore to slow jogging. So, nothing until Monday I think is going to be the plan and I really hope the knee is better by then.
If you're looking for some good reading material check out Bryant Jensen's race report of the Woodlands Marathon last Saturday. The race didn't go anywhere near as well as he hoped but he keeps a positive attitude and it sounds like he's learned something too:
Bryant's Report
No run - resting knee.
No run. Resting knee. I had a fun time spectating the Strider's 10-Miler and taking photos. Here's a link to the pictures.
My knee is more sore now that it was any other time this week. This is the first day that I can feel it when not running. Boo. I will continue to nurse it and see how I feel on Monday.
5.1 miles easy. Plan was 12-15 miles to get back on track for Boston training, but knee HURTS. I had to cut run short. I went to gym after and did a long core workout.
I would say with how much my knee hurt I may have to take the rest of the week off again and really hit the therapy hard. If I can't get a decent week of workouts next week I think I'll have to call off Boston.
I'm frustrated, but am looking at this as optimistically as I can. The timing isn't terrible. If you're going to have to layoff for an injury, right after a marathon is as ideal as you can get, as it lets the rest of the leg fully recover and rest up as well. Also, imagine how much more frustrating it would be if I was coming off a bad marathon race. At least I was fortunate enough to run a really good race before this. For that I'm grateful.
I can't think of any cross training I could do that doesn't affect the knee, as it hurts when it bends. So I guess I will stick to some core workouts in the meantime and really buckle down in eating well.
No run - knee pain. It feels much better today over yesterday. Lots of ice and compression lately oh and ibuprofin.
More great reading at our ogdencrew blog. Bret Ferrier has made a splash on the trail runnng scene in the La Sportiva Mtn Cup. He won the Hillbilly Half in Olympia, WA this last weekend and is in 2nd place in the cup overall standings. You can read his race report here. Also, on the blog Bryant gives an update on his training six weeks out from Boston.
Tried testing the knee and it failed the test. Turned around after a mile and then out of frustration ran the last 0.85 at 4:33 pace. Finished up with about 20 minutes of core at the gym.
I'm not going to attempt a run today, going to give the knee a day off. I got a massage from Sariah yesterday and hopefully that helped loosen whatever may have been pulling on the tendon and making it inflamed. If so, another few days and the inflammation should be gone. If not, I may have more serious issues at play.
I'll do some core work tonight while watching tv.
8 miles easy. I was actually able to run. The knee pain was still present but the pain was much much more tolerable. Now ice ice ice!
15-mile run from my house with Ben and Jason into Uintah and back. We did a 3-mile fast finish with a gradual uphill mile one, big climb mile two, and long grinding climb in mile three. The paces were marathon, but the effort was more threshold to be honest. 5:19, 5:24, 5:27.
My knee felt pretty decent for first 7-8 miles, hurt pretty badly from 9-12, and then went away with the fast push and doesn't hurt now either (30 min later). Hopefully with tomorrow off it will heal even more.
17 miles at a moderate pace with Jason, Jon, and Bret. Plan was 20 but my knee was done at 16, I jogged to 17 and then walked it in (another mile). The pain on the knee moved from inside to outside this morning. So I'll work the IT band tonight and hope to get this under control soon. I'm getting really close to pulling the plug on Boston. Avg pace 6:40.
No run. My knee hurts, but not at all where it was hurting before. It's in a completely new area and it feels like I twisted/sprained it or something. I do remember a step on the run yesterday where it kind of gave out a little and I stumbled a bit. I wonder if that is the cause. It was a half mile later that I couldn't run on it anymore. Hmmm. Anyway, letting it rest/heal today and maybe tomorrow.
No run - resting knee. It feels way better today than yesterday, but better safe than sorry.
No run - still letting knee rest/heal. Yesterday my knee was pain-free 99% of the day. I can only feel it when I swing my leg in and then back out (swinging right leg over my left leg and then back out...hurts when going back out, so lateral movement). So once I can do that motion with no pain, I will give a light run a try and re-evaluate at that point.
No run - see yesterday's remarks.
No run - I will try a couple miles on Monday. At this point I figure I may as well take today off too and give it two more days (with tomorrow off also) before trying a run. That will be a full week off with no running, so hopefully it'll feel ok when I run on Monday.
3 miles easy to test my knee after a week of no running. Result = no bueno.
It's not as bad as last week, but it's also not nearly as healed as I had hoped. I guess it's another week of no running and if it hurts when I get back in town I will have to go get it checked out.
I'm basically going nuts not being able to run lately. Tomorrow I will give it a try for a few miles and hope the knee responds.
Strider's Half Marathon is this upcoming weekend and I've written a post on how I feel is the best way to pace that race. Check it out here.
Keep your fingers crossed for my knee tomorrow!
4 miles on base perimeter. Felt ok for first two (minus breathing like a fat kid) and then the knee flared up a lot on way back and was sore after.

Objective: To estimate the prevalence and outcome of symptomatic internal carotid artery lesions in young adults.
Design: Multicentre hospital based observational study with five year follow up.
Setting: Seven neurological departments in northern and central Italy.
Subjects: 240 patients (115 men) aged 15-44 with a recent transient ischaemic attack or stroke in the carotid territory.
Main outcome measures: (a) Prevalence of symptomatic internal carotid artery stenosis or occlusion detected by continuous wave Doppler ultrasonography at entry; (b) incidence rates of cerebral, cardiac, and non-vascular death; non-fatal stroke; and non-fatal myocardial infarction.
Results: Carotid stenoses of 50-99% and occlusions were found in 38 patients (15.8%). Both conditions were significantly more frequent in patients aged over 35 and in those with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and stroke at entry. The standardised mortality ratio at five years was 10.5 (95% confidence interval 5.0 to 19.3). Survival of patients with stenoses of 0-49% and occlusions was significantly better than that of patients with stenoses of 50-99%. Carotid stenosis of 50-99% was an independent predictor of death (hazard ratio 7.9; 95% confidence interval 2.2 to 29) and non-fatal stroke (hazard ratio 7.4; 1.5 to 37.4).
Conclusions: The prevalence of carotid stenosis or occlusion in young adults after a cerebrovascular event is low. Though patients with high grade symptomatic carotid stenosis are at risk of non-fatal and fatal events, patients with internal artery occlusion apparently have a benign prognosis.
Key messages
Key messages
Young adults with a history of transient ischaemic attack and stroke have a low prevalence of high grade symptomatic carotid artery stenosis and occlusion
The five year prognosis is apparently benign in patients aged 15-44 with internal carotid artery occlusion but poor (in terms of fatal and non-fatal events) in the presence of high grade carotid stenosis
Primary and secondary medical prevention of cerebral ischaemia based on routine Doppler examinations should be initiated early in subjects at risk
Endarterectomy should be considered even in young adults with ipsilateral carotid artery stenosis of 70-99% to halt the progression of arterial lesions and improve prognosis
High grade stenoses and occlusions of the internal carotid artery occur in 30-50% of patients with cerebral ischaemia in the carotid territory.1 Both are commonly associated with age, male sex, family history of stroke, obesity, smoking, hyperlipidaemia, diabetes mellitus, and coronary heart disease.2 3 The prognosis of severe stenoses is worse than that of the less tight lesions, with a 14% annual recurrence rate of stroke and a 9% mortality.4
Patients under 45 have a low prevalence of carotid lesions.5 6 7 8 9 Early atherosclerotic disease is the cause of most such lesions, though rare non-atherosclerotic causes are seldom represented.1 5 6 7 8 Long term follow up studies of young adults with focal cerebral ischaemia show the good outcome of patients without atherosclerotic lesions of neck arteries.5 7 10 11 In the presence of carotid stenosis the stroke recurrence rate increases to 20% after an average of 5.6 years of follow up.12
This report describes the prevalence and outcome of symptomatic internal carotid artery stenoses and occlusions, assessed by continuous wave Doppler ultrasonography, in a prospective hospital based series of young adults (age range 15-44) with either transient ischaemic attack or stroke at entry.
Patients and methods
Between April 1984 and March 1988 all patients aged 15-44 who had their first transient ischaemic attack or stroke in the ipsilateral carotid artery territory within eight weeks before admission were investigated in seven neurological departments in northern and central Italy.9 The study protocol included a clinical and laboratory evaluation of vascular risk factors, brain computed tomography, cardiac evaluation with chest radiography, electrocardiography, and transthoracic echocardiography. Selective carotid angiography of the symptomatic vascular territory was performed in most cases.
The presence of internal carotid artery stenosis or occlusion was assessed by continuous wave Doppler ultrasonography (DUD 800, Delalande, France). On the basis of the results patients were divided into three categories: 0-49% stenosis (<6 kHz) of lumen diameter, 50-99% stenosis (6-20 kHz) of lumen diameter, and occlusion.13 Carotid occlusion was diagnosed in the presence of low flow velocities in the common carotid artery and no detectable Doppler signals distal to the occlusion. Interrater agreement among the trained examiners (verified before the study) resulted in the substantial range ((kappa) index 0.75; 95% confidence interval 0.48 to 1.00).
All patients were followed up for five years with an annual clinical evaluation or a complete phone interview by means of a semistructured questionnaire. Hypertension was defined as diastolic blood pressure over 90 mm Hg (when measured out of the acute phase); diabetes mellitus was noted from the medical records before or at recruitment; obesity referred to body weight exceeding 20% of ideal (Lorentz formula).9 Primary end points included cerebral, cardiac, and non-vascular death; non-fatal stroke; and non-fatal myocardial infarction.14 Details of all deaths were assessed from hospital records, necropsy reports, or general practitioners' reports.
Cerebral death was defined as that occurring within 30 days after a severe qualifying stroke with clinically proved deterioration. Cardiac death was defined as death occurring unwitnessed or without any preceding symptoms (sudden death) or associated with cardiac symptoms suggestive of myocardial infarction, severe congestive heart failure, and acute pulmonary oedema. Stroke was defined as a focal neurological deficit of sudden onset persisting beyond 24 hours in a surviving patient.15 Myocardial infarction was diagnosed by the presence of at least two of the following: characteristic ischaemic chest pain for more than 30 minutes, typical increase in serum enzyme activities, and new pathological Q waves on electrocardiography. The only secondary end point considered was transient ischaemic attack, defined as a focal neurological deficit resolving completely within 24 hours.15 Its recurrence was evaluated only in patients with transient ischaemic attack on admission.
During follow up no compulsory treatment was adopted. Strict medical control and optimal treatment of the recognised vascular risk factors were encouraged.
Statistical analysis—Univariate statistical analysis was by Pearson's χ2 test. χ2 Test for trend was also performed to emphasise the linear relation between vascular risk factors and severity of carotid disease. Patients' event free survival was assessed by the Kaplan-Meier method according to the degree of carotid disease. Comparisons between the survival distribution for the different subgroups were performed by log rank test. Survival rate was also compared with that of a standard population, matched for age and sex, according to Italian life tables,16 the standardised mortality ratio being computed with exact 95% confidence interval. Univariate hazard ratios were calculated separately for death, non-fatal stroke, and non-fatal myocardial infarction by the Cox proportional hazards regression, stenosis of 0-49% being taken as the reference category. Adjusted hazard ratios were obtained with age, sex, cardiac disease, and transient ischaemic attack or stroke at entry being included as covariates.
Two hundred and forty patients were included (125 women, 115 men; mean age 36.0 (SD 7.3) years). Most (n=138) presented with stroke as the first episode. Thirty eight patients (15.8%) had ipsilateral internal carotid artery stenosis of 50-99% (n=30) or occlusion (n=8) detected by Doppler ultrasonography. Seven stenoses (23.3%) were bilateral. Selective carotid angiography was performed on 175 patients (73%). In 144 (82%) cases there was agreement between the angiographic and ultrasound findings. The coefficient of agreement adjusted for chance ((kappa) index) was 0.62 (95% confidence interval 0.48 to 0.76), indicating substantial concordance between the two methods.
Most patients (73%) were taking antiplatelet drugs (n=153) or anticoagulants (n=22) during follow up. Five patients with transient ischaemic attack and four with stroke at entry underwent carotid endarterectomy because of symptomatic preocclusive carotid stenosis (n=2), ipsilateral stenosis of greater (n=3) or less than 70% (n=1), bilateral stenosis of greater than 70% (n=2), and post-stenotic aneurysm (n=1), all confirmed by angiography.
Table I shows the linear association of age over 35 (P=0.05 (χ2 test); P=0.01 (χ2 test for trend)), hypertension (P=0.0002; P=0.00006), stroke at entry (P=0.012; P=0.003), and diabetes mellitus (P=0.004; P=0.06) with the severity of carotid disease.
The five year clinical follow up (table II), based on information reported at the annual clinical evaluation (162 patients; 68%) or collected by phone interview (76; 32%), was available in 238 patients. Eight men and two women died (4.2%). Of the nine patients who underwent endarterectomy, one had a contralateral transient ischaemic attack five years after surgery, one died in a car accident, and one with bilateral stenosis had a stroke eight months after surgery and committed suicide four months later. The observed survival rate (95.8%) was worse than expected for the age and sex matched standard Italian population (99.6%) (standardised mortality ratio 10.5 (95% confidence interval 5.04 to 19.32)) (fig 1).
Table III shows the annual recurrence rates for cerebral and cardiac events in the three subgroups of carotid lesions and in the overall series. The cumulative risk of death among patients with carotid stenoses of 50-99% was higher (P=0.0012 (log rank test)) than among patients with stenoses of 0-49% and occlusions (fig 2).
Carotid stenosis of 50-99% was associated with significant hazard ratios—namely, 7.2 (95% confidence interval 2.1 to 25.0) for all deaths and 7.5 (1.5 to 37.1) for non-fatal stroke (table IV). These hazard ratios remained significant after adjusting for other potential outcome predictors.
Doppler ultrasonography has so far been formally assessed as a diagnostic tool and is likely to remain the first line screening technique for carotid lesions, while the most recently developed ultrasound methods and angiography may clarify the diagnosis in equivocal cases. The conclusions we have drawn apply to patients with continuous wave Doppler evaluation performed according to standardised criteria.13 The substantial agreement ((kappa) =0.62) between selective carotid angiography and ultrasound in 73% of patients (175/240) allowed an unbiased estimate of both prevalence and outcome of symptomatic internal carotid artery lesions in our hospital based series.
The 15.8% prevalence (38 cases) of ipsilateral carotid stenoses of 50-99% and occlusions agreed with other reports referring to younger case series5 6 7 8 but was lower than that reported in elderly patients with cerebral ischaemia.1 Bilateral severe carotid stenoses (seven of 30 cases; 23.3%) were more frequent than reported (8.5%).17 The association between the degree of carotid stenosis and the severity of cerebral ischaemia at entry was confirmed in our series.4 In addition, severe carotid stenoses and occlusions were associated with age over 35, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus.
The lack of an association with cigarette smoking, hypercholesterolaemia, and hypertriglyceridaemia, found in elderly patients,2 might be due to lack of sensitivity of continuous wave Doppler ultrasonography, which did not identify non-stenosing carotid plaques and could not rule out carotid dissection or fibromuscular dysplasia. Alternatively, some vascular risk factors might require longer exposure to act as true atherogenic determinants of carotid disease progression. Their association with the extent and severity of carotid disease was stronger in elderly than in young patients.3 Different criteria to define and assess vascular risk factors or to categorise carotid abnormalities might also explain discrepancies with other studies.18
The standardised mortality ratio (10.5) was higher than reported in other studies (ratios between 1.5 and 2.0) with a similar follow up period and in comparisons with age and sex matched population controls, reflecting the high risk of death among young adults with cerebral ischaemia in the carotid territory.14 19
Annual incidence rates of cerebral (0.6%) and cardiac events (0.5%) were lower than reported in elderly people (4.2% and 2.9% respectively)14 but close to those found in patients under 30 (0.7% and nil).2 The five year mortality was 16.7% in patients with severe carotid stenosis. This figure was roughly comparable to the 15% reported in older patients4 and 20% in patients younger than 50 followed up for an average of 5.6 years.12 The small subgroup of young adults with carotid occlusion showed the apparently favourable prognosis reported in elderly subjects with either symptomatic or asymptomatic carotid occlusion.5 20 21 22
In our series severe carotid stenosis of 50-99% contributed independently to increased mortality and the recurrence of non-fatal stroke in young adults (table IV).
This study shows that young adults with high grade symptomatic carotid stenosis are at risk of non-fatal and fatal events, whereas patients with carotid occlusion apparently have a benign prognosis. Therefore, in subjects at risk primary and secondary medical prevention should be initiated early.9 Furthermore, other workers suggest that endarterectomy should be considered, after thorough evaluation, even in young adults with ipsilateral high grade symptomatic carotid stenosis of 70-99% to halt the progression of arterial lesions and improve prognosis.17 23
