1.Here for yet another day; remembering to be grateful.
2. ***: Hello, I wasn't sure you would be coming.
Adams Rubble: I thought it was mandatory after one of your readings posts.
***: Well no, but it is good to see you.
Adams Rubble:The lists that Paul puts together are interesting especially when considering the Buddhist kleshas, the mental states that cloud the mind such as attachment, anger, ignorance, pride.conceit, doubt and wrong views or greed, hate, conceit, delusion, wrong views, doubt, restlessness, shamelessness or the "three main kleshas": passion, aggression and ignorance.
***: Now that you have started to list kleshas, there also are the five poisons: ignorance, attachment, aversion, pride and envy.
Adams Rubble: Hmmm, and the seven deadly sins: pride, envy, wrath, sloth, avarice, gluttony and lust.
***: Emotions, defilements, poisons, sins, kleshas and passions, mental afflictions, and for Paul, activities of our lower nature.
Adams Rubble: I thought it was most interesting that Paul noted the laws were created to deal with these things.
***: Yes, what did you think of his antidote, i.e. living in the spirit.
Adams Rubble: That is the controversial part I think. On the ultimate level, yes, absolutely. On the relative level it takes lots and lots of work and effort. Some Christians think that you just accept Christ and everything is fixed. The Buddhists emphasize the great effort needed to get there.
***: Yes, even many lifetimes for most.
Adams Rubble: Still I thought it was interesting that your post called Paul's exercise an empowerment. For the exercise, I would use thumb tacks to symbolically crucify my lower activities rather than post-it notes to be kind to the environment :).
***: Ha, it is a mental exercise.
Adams Rubble: : It still requires a certain mindfulness (to use a Buddhist term) to identify these "activities of our lower nature" as they arise.
***: Maybe that is what the confession of sins does in the liturgy every Sunday.
Adams Rubble: OK, but that is once a week.
***: Daily prayer?
Adams Rubble: I guess we are getting closer. There also are the 9 seconds every fifteen minutes 🙂
***: I think that was after Paul's time.
Adams Rubble: Yes, and all of us forget to do it without an alarm bell. That brings us to meditation; maybe you can try Paul's empowerment the next time you meditate.
***: OK, now for something to remind me to meditate more often.
Adams Rubble: You need more discipline my friend :).
***: Yes, I guess I do. Time to go off to my other activities. Bye for now.
Adams Rubble: Bye. See you soon for our next installment..

In 2007, I joined Ancestry.com. It never occurred to me that online, unsourced trees were inaccurate. I essentially "copied" my entire Acadian family from potentially erroneous public trees and never looked back. Although my newer entries are sourced, a visit to Stephen A. White, at Moncton University's Centre d'Études Acadiennes [Center for Acadian Studies] in 2014, revealed a number of errors. I am determined to start from scratch, and verify that I have all available records beginning with the 30 direct ancestors, connected to my maternal grandmother Yvonne Marie Roy. This includes her parents, grandparents, g-grandparents and g-g-grandparents.
To keep the project manageable, I will write of one each week for the next 30 weeks.
Click on any photo to see a larger version.
Generation 1 – my grandmother – Marie Yvonne "Yvonne" Roy
1. Marie Yvonne "Yvonne" Roy, daughter of Pius/Paul Roy and Laura Marie Melanson, was born on 16 Aug 1912 in Ste Marie de Kent, New Brunswick, Canada. She was baptized at Eslise du Mont-Carmel four days later. Her godparents were Dosithe Roy (her grandfather) and Domithilde Roy (likely a relative).
Ste-Marie de Kent is located on the north side of the Buctouche River; in 1898 St. Mary's was a farming and fishing community with 1 post office, 4 stores, 1 cheese factory, 1 church and a population of about 1,000. Pictured is the cemetery/Mont-Carmel Church and Bouctouche River at Ste-Marie and the view as we arrived during my 2014 visit.
Yvonne likely immigrated to Gardner, Worcester, Massachusetts with her mother, when she was almost four, on 17 April 1916 (the immigration date reported in her mother's November 1932 border crossing documents when she returned to Canada for an eleven day visit and also the date which Yvonne's father's claimed to enter the US in his Declaration of Intent to become a US Citizen). The 1920/1930 censuses further supports this 1915/1916 arrival.
The family moved frequently.
In 1920, Yvonne (age 8, attending school, can read and write), was living at 244 Parker Street, Gardner, with her parents and four of her siblings (two siblings were born after 1920). There were five families at this address, all French Canadian.
In 1930, Yvonne (age 17, not in school or working), was living at 5 Moran, Street, Gardner, with her parents and five siblings (brother, Leo passed away in 1929), likely all in one room. There were nine families at this address, all French Canadian [photo not available, but in 2015, it was described as "a 4,968 square foot multi-family home which sits on a 0.26 acre lot and features 9 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms"].
In 1934, Yvonne first appears in city directories living with her parents at r 91 Regan, Gardner. She worked as a toymkr for Royal Manufacturing Company at rear 58 Main.
According to her sister Alida, Yvonne was a big drinker/party girl who had many boyfriends. On 20 August 1934, Yvonne gave birth to her first child (1) Living Female. Based on DNA testing, her father is unknown but he was likely Eastern European.
A few months later, Yvonne married at the Holy Rosary Church, in Gardner, 6 October 1934, Charles Billings, who was born 27 Jun 1904 in Pittsfield, Berkshire, Massachusetts, son of Juozas (Joseph) Baltrūnas (Billie) and Salomėja Markevičiūtė (Morris) of Stanioniai and Preibiai, Pasvalys, Lithuania. The first in her line, since the late 1600's, to marry a non-Acadian.
Yvonne gave birth to three children while married to Billings: (2) Elizabeth "Betty" b. 1935, (3) Ralph b. 1938 and (4) Charles b. 1941 [DNA testing reveals Billings was Betty's bio-father, he was not the bio-father of Ralph, whose father had Finnish origins; child #4, Charles, is deceased, with no issue, and thus his paternity could not be tested].
From 1935 to 1936, the family resided in Gardner, Massachusetts. In 1935 on r 91 Regan (with Yvonne's parents) and in 1936 on 63 Parker (# 14); Charles worked as a cutter and assembler for FSCo. By 1937 directories indicate they had removed to Baldwinsville in the town of Templeton, Worcester, Massachusetts.
By 1939 they were back in Gardner, at 103 Pine and Charles was an inspector for FSCo. In 1940, they were renting 16 Willow Street where they paid $16/month. Charles was an Insulator who had worked 50 weeks in the prior year and made $1,250.
The 1941 Gardner city directory notes that Mrs. Yvonne Billings removed to Athol, Massachusetts. Charles is not mentioned. Did they separate? (Charles' sister Connie resided in Athol; Yvonne's parents relocated to Athol about 1947).
In the early 1940's, according to Yvonne's daughters, the family moved to Lynn, Massachusetts, where Charles was employed by GE [General Electric]. Yvonne was hospitalized for tuberculosis (a deadly epidemic for which there were no antibiotics until the 1950's) and the children, infant to about age eight, were left alone, with agreement that the upstairs neighbor would watch them, so Charles could work. Another neighbor reported the situation and the state stepped in and placed the three eldest in foster care. The youngest, Charles, was placed in an institution, unbeknownst to his siblings, who were told their little brother had died. Sadly, I never met my uncle; but he was an amazing man, read of his life by "clicking here". The remaining children were placed in Malden, Massachusetts (the girls together at 167 Main Street with Joseph and Margaret (Daley) Galiack). My aunt Alida and other relatives recall that both Yvonne and Charles were raging alcoholics and likely not fit for parenting.
In later years, my mother obtained case files from the state of Massachusetts to learn more of her parents. She choose to destroy the documentation and noted "they were full of lies". The last memory my mother had of her father, was him sitting at the kitchen table, crying and begging them not to take his children. My mother never heard from her father again and contact with her mother was sparse.
The state files read:
8 Nov 1944 – Essex County Superior Court
Lynn police complaint of neglect, parents attended hearing. Mother Yvonne, born in New Brunswick 1912 was found in a rooming house in Lynn, nude and intoxicated, she had been away from home for several days. The father stated that Yvonne had not been "well" since the birth of her youngest child.
The four children were verminous, undernourished and school attendance was irregular. They had been observed in the Lynn City Home for two weeks and given outfits of clothing.
The parents had been in court previously on 4 Nov 1941 on the charges of neglect and both were on probation.
Yvonne was found guilty of lewd and lascivious neglect, she was sentence to 30 days at the reformatory for women in Framingham (which she appealed) and was fined $100.
Charles was found guilty, placed on probation and was to pay $10/week.
Charles and Yvonne separated sometime after the children were placed in foster care, I do not believe they legally divorced. Her husband Charles is listed alone in the 1945 Lynn, Massachusetts city directory – r 14 Munroe, "Libson the lodging house" [court records indicate he may have gone to Bridgeport, Connecticut to reside with relatives there]. No later city directories have been located for Yvonne or Charles, but photos indicate that by 1945 Yvonne had a new boyfriend, Tony Thibodeau. In May 1950 she told social workers that she hoped to marry him and was vague on the status of her marriage to Billings.
When my mother was a young adult she and her best friend Pat would, on occasion, take a train to Boston and visit the bar where Yvonne worked.
In 1950 Yvonne claimed to have been working at the Franklin Café, Boston (as a bartender and/or a waitress) with her sister Lena Cummings, 2278 Shawmut Ave., making $12/week plus tips and meals. Her boyfriend, Tony, an alcoholic, was not a nice man; he unsuccessfully attempted to sexually molest Yvonne's eldest teenage daughter (she left foster care and moved in with her mother for a short time).
State case file:
Sep 1950 – Yvonne was charged for visiting without a permit. This very much disturbed the eldest girl. According to the foster mother, Yvonne told the girls they could wear cheap jewelry, lipstick and rouge and could visit her anytime in Boston and she would pay for the cab.
12 Nov 1951 – Yvonne requested permission to take the girls to visit their grandmother in Athol for Thanksgiving. Permission was granted with hopes that this would eliminate any longing the children have to live with her.
15 Nov 1951 – Yvonne resides at 10 Taylor Street, Boston and is working at Walton's restaurant on Massachusetts Avenue. She makes $50/week plus tips. She was asked to help support the children. She stated that she was not interested.
10 Oct 1952 – Yvonne's eldest daughter was discharged from foster care. She went to reside at the home of Yvonne on 10 Taylor Street, Boston. Soon after her arrival, Yvonne went on a 12 day drinking binge. X [living daughter] is having a hard time with her mother being drunk and promiscuous.
Yvonne is having an affair with a taxi driver. On three occasions they drove to Malden, picked up Betty and X [living son] and took them to Revere Beach.
14 May 1953 – Yvonne admitted to Rutland State Sanitarium, Maine with advance pulmonary TB, prognosis poor.
July 1954 – the hospital reported Yvonne improving, expected to be ambulatory soon.
Yvonne's sister Alida recalls Yvonne appearing at the door in Athol exposing her children Tuberculosis, an infectious bacterial disease characterized by the growth of nodules (tubercles) in the tissues, especially the lungs. Alida was angry, but drove her to the hospital and visited. Nothing more is known of Yvonne's life.
By 23 August 1960, Yvonne was again hospitalized with Tuberculosis. Her daughter, Betty, was listed as her "next of kin", which made her quite angry as her mother had not been a part of her life. Betty did visit at least once, on 31 Aug 1960.
Yvonne died on 14 Jul 1961, age 48 (almost 49), in Mattapan (Boston) and was buried three days later in Athol, Worcester, Massachusetts (Gethsemane Cemetery, Plot: St. Matthew, Row TB, Lot 2) with her father and later her mother and son Charles. Her death was recorded in Boston, her daughter Elizabeth "Betty" Billings was the informant.
She spent 10 months and 21 days in the Boston Sanatorium (a historic tuberculosis hospital at 249 River Street in Mattapan) prior to her death which was caused by "Far Advanced Pulmonary Tuberculosis" .
Prior to her death, Yvonne had been residing at, 624 Tremont Street, Boston (a section known as "The South End", where buildings here were tenements and in the 1960s absentee landlordism was rampant and the neighborhood was one of the poorest of the city ). She was a waitress at a restaurant (she was not found in Boston city directories at any address under the name Billings or Roy).
It seems that the only family members who attended the funeral were her daughter Betty and sister Nelsey (many relatives lived out of state, including Yvonne's mother who was almost 70). The funeral was held in Malden at Leo Norton's (a very good friend of my grandfather Dr. Charles G. Hall). Betty paid the $511 in fees, noting that Yvonne had not been in her life since she was five.

And did those feet…
Nope, I'll have to stop you there. I can't really tell you what my feet have been doing. Yes, I signed them up to walk on England's mountains green, but if we're relying on visual evidence alone, any time from last Wednesday-or-so until Sunday is a blank. They could have hopped a flight to Tel Aviv and opened a string of nightclubs.
To be sure, until late last Wednesday-or-so their alibi is iron-clad: they were with me in Derbyshire, walking up hill and down dale as I and my chum Axl Rose tramped the Peak District. But Wednesday marked the fourth day of the toast, the pikelet, the pasta, the sandwich, the Derbyshire oatcake and the potato three ways. Those days took their toll and, like the sun slowly blocked by a planet during an eclipse, my feet gradually disappeared from view. It's a remarkable testament to the greed of their owner that they disappeared in spite of doing a minimum of eight hours' walking a day.
Luckily for us, the sun shone magnificently on each day but one, which is what brought Axl Rose to the party. It was the hat, see? It was supposed to channel Ali McGraw, explained my walking chum, leaning on a lamppost, weak with laughter after catching her reflection in a cottage window. But somehow hair, hat and sunnies had convolved to produce an unmistakeable-once-she'd-said-it Axl impression.
A sizzled scalp precipitated a fashion crisis of my very own. I needed to cover up but once we'd seen and rejected the titfers on offer in Bakewell market ('100% polyester? You'll get trench-head') I was forced back to my underpacked suitcase and a silk scarf, which I fiddled about with helplessly until getting cross and doing the only scarf hat I can manage that isn't Les Dawson in drag. I'd been hoping for funky vintage 1940s factory girl but ended up with crap village fete fortune teller.
Our walks were mostly around the gentler, cosier White Peaks, though we did manage a day fringing the edge of Kinder Scout.
Ever since I really got into this tramping-about lark I've wanted to go to Kinder simply to pay silent homage to the mass trespass of 1932. That's just the sort of brave thing I wish I had the gumption to do. We were there on Wednesday, the day before another case of wilful law-breaking for the public good. Bravo, Edward Snowden.

Brian Stauffer / University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign U of I Provost Andreas Cangellaris apologized Monday after criticism of his actions during the recent strike by graduate student workers. The apology came during a meeting of the Urbana campus's Senate and several days after the Graduate Employees Organization, or GEO, called off an 11-day strike. Cangellaris says he was criticized by faculty and students over his handling of the negotiations. GEO Strike Ends with New Five-Year Contract By Christine Herman • Mar 12, 2018 Graduate Employees' Organization-UIUC / Facebook Members of the Graduate Employees' Organization, or GEO, voted Friday to ratify a new five-year contract. The contract puts an end to the nearly two-week-long strike that cancelled hundreds of classes and caused dozens more to be relocated. GEO co-president Gus Wood says they weren't going to give up until they got guaranteed tuition waivers for all graduate workers. What's In The New GEO Contract? By Brian Moline • Mar 9, 2018 Graduate Employees' Organization-UIUC / Facebook Graduate workers on the University of Illinois Urbana campus are voting Friday whether to ratify a new five-year contract with the University of Illinois. The Graduate Employees' Organization sent WILL information about what is in the tentative agreement. Tuition Waivers U of I Graduate Workers Strike Hinges On Tuition Waivers By Lee Gaines • Mar 7, 2018 Lee Gaines / Illinois Newsroom Hundreds of classes have been canceled and dozens more relocated as a strike by graduate employees at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign continues into a second week. On Tuesday night, graduate workers occupied the office of university president Tim Killeen. Strikers have a variety of demands, but one of the most contentious points focuses on the future of tuition waivers — and whether some graduate workers will have to pay tuition while employed in academic positions on campus. U of I Graduate Employee Strike Enters Second Week By Brian Moline • Mar 5, 2018 GEO / Facebook The graduate workers' strike on the University of Illinois Urbana campus enters its second week today, after talks with a federal mediator Sunday yielded no progress toward an agreement. Both the U of I and the Graduate Employees' Organization, or GEO, released statements last night after the talks. Patrick Kimutis with the GEO's bargaining team says the university did not propose anything different than in the last session, so the strike will continue.

yesterday was 'dumping day'. it's officially the day that lobster fishermen on the south shore can set their baited traps so they can start hauling them today on the first day of lobster season.
i like lobster. i also like watching all the action from inside where it's warm.
yeah that's the view from inside my living room!
anyway, i live in a fishing village & i have prime real estate for watching all the 'goings on' of dumping day. there were a few helicopters out, the coast guard was there is full force inspecting permits, and as the day progressed i watched the number of traps on the docks dwindle.
as far as i'm concerned, lobster fishermen are some of the hardest workers out there. the seas are pretty dangerous at this time of year, the water is cold and the lobsters are unbelievably vicious before they have their bands on.
yesterday the fishermen were blessed with awesome weather.
calm seas & no wind make for a pretty amazing dumping day. but alas, the north atlantic is not always so forgiving & cooperative. today the wind had picked up, but at least it's not cold yet.
this is still pretty tame, but the lobster fishermen brave seas all winter that are completely ridiculous.
as a business owner, i'm always concerned with the bottom line, but at the same time i think people should be rewarded for risking their lives and harvesting one of the best local products around. it's such a shame that the lobster market has bottomed out - these folks deserve more for the work they are doing and the risks they are taking.
buy local & buy direct whenever possible... & don't complain about the price of lobster - it's totally worth it.

This is the second time that someone leaves the show without being eliminated.
Challenges, West 6, East 2
Fights, West 6, East 2
There was no challenge this week as the match was already decided.
This episode title is unofficial.
The other players vote for Sergio Mora to win a brand new truck. This is the first time that Sergio has ever owned a new car.
The fight in this episode is fought much earlier than usual. The fight ended about half an hour into the episode, so Sly and Sugar Ray could take the remaining competitors to the Caesar Palace in Las Vegas. There, the boxers receive a taste of their ultimate award: a visual of one million dollars.
Juan De La Rosa becomes the second person to quit the game due to injury or illness.
Sugar Ray: This ring is your path to greatness.

Harlem Children's Zone and the Fired Public School Teacher
A public school teacher, who claims her limbs swell up due to an inflammatory disease, asked her fifth-grade students to rub the allegedly affected areas. Although her request, made openly and during instructional time, may have been relatively innocent in the sense that there probably was less likelihood of lewd intent since it was not done in secret behind closed doors, it no doubt, at the very least, reflected horrible judgement and warranted the proportional disciplinary action of termination.
The conclusion that she should be fired was cemented by aggravating evidence of gross past indiscretions that displayed her unfitness to work directly with children. According to the Department of Education , she once called a child a "liar and a thief" ( whether or not this categorization is accurate is irrelevant), and on two other occasions threw an object at a child and hit a child on the head. She calls the latter incident a "tap."
All of the above occurred around 2007. Some of it may be "hearsay, which emanating from the DOE sometimes wrongly carries the legal weight and moral authority of incontrovertible evidence. But much was substantiated by investigators who are often former police detectives who are familiar and bound by the legitimate protocols of law-enforcement inquiries.
Although the teacher is remorseful and pleads for another chance to pursue her profession with rectitude, she continues to be banned permanently from any Department of Education position, including with any of the Agency's vendors.
Since most of the story is old news, why did it make the New York Post just a week ago?
Because the teacher is now suing for $100,000 and to have her eligibility to work restored. She has been banned for life by the DOE.Though harsh, most folks wouldn't disagree with that punishment.
What took the teacher so long to seek what she deems her deserved restitution? Perhaps she figured the DOE had forgotten her and that she could just pick up from where she had left off years ago. But when she applies for a job with a DOE-affiliated after-school program, the red flags popped up and she was rejected with no option of appeal.
There is no exit from the trap door through which she had fallen because of her own ill-considered actions.
But wait! Charter school to the rescue!
Long after this teacher had been cut loose from the public school system, the Harlem Children's Zone, a charter school that is often touted as a champion among quality educational institutions, gave this same teacher a gig working closely with kids. Charter school acolytes often ostentatiously brag about practicing superior standards in hiring, because unlike public schools, they are not saddled by union rules.
They would admit to their mistake were they capable of shame.
Even if the Harlem Children's Zone were unaware of the teacher's tainted history and would not have retained her on staff had they known, they clearly didn't bother with "due diligence". Using conventional means, they could easily have accessed her background.
The Harlem Children's Zone, like many other privately-run, tax-payer-funded charter schools, has a lot to learn from our public schools about accountability and the protection of students.
And also about the nature of tenure and how it works. The charter school hawks are avid subscribers to the fallacy that tenure guarantees life-time employment even to teachers guilty of serious wrongdoing.That was disproved by the case of the tenured teacher who was canned immediately upon the allegations being properly checked out. Tenure is about due-process according to culture, tradition and law.
The public schools are a hospitable environment for tenure. No apologies for that. Charter schools? Not so much. They apologize for nothing.

Hey all, new news…
Karazhan on saturday evening, I'm thinking we'll do this at 8 PM server time. Message Dezaras and/or Davlin if you'd like to partake, otherwise, we'll just guess…and horribleness ensues when we guess…
In other news, Davlin's writing a new Guild story! This one will be another tale of Davlin's misadventures, with some focus on all his new gadgets and their ability to constantly backfire on him (seriously, Davlin was lit on fire yesterday after stepping out of a teleporter…he then fell dead in a smoking heap and had to walk back to his body…this happens on a regular basis).
Um, I'm working on raising money for my first flying mount training. I've got the mount already. Its the Engineer Flying Machine. (That's more personal pride than guild news, if you don't like it, tough, its my blog).
Other than that, this week will be groups of folks getting keyed for Kara, feel free to message Mustafah or Meleah if you want in on getting keyed.
Other news: Furyen is still MIA. He's hurrying back to us, but there's only so much hurrying he can do. I encourage everyone to read the rules page, especially if you are new.
That be all from this end. Peace out Guildies.

When you marry or partner up for life, you collect memories along the way of a whole new story, sometimes radically different from your own and after years of hearing those treasured memories which belong uniquely to your husband, wife or partner's childhood and growing up years, you begin to relay those stories yourself to others along the way because you know them so well…
This is the case with me and my hubby and his story of the friends he bought to me, the stories from Elm Street.
We belong to the second generation of Elm Street, the first being our parents who settled there and raised their children. My husband is one of those children and the eldest of six of one of the families who grew up on this unique street. Alongside his house were other houses full of children who would become lifelong friends of my husband and I. These were days where the children would be down the end of the street in their mate's houses or playing footy or cricket in the street for hours on end and only came inside when dinner was served, usually at someone else's home. When I arrived on the scene, these friendships were already very solid and the memories of New Year's Eve parties thrown by the parents of Elm Street were of legendary quality, parties which were talked about for decades after.
The bonds which were forged between the families of Elm Street are a tribute to the wonderful group of people that they are and I witnessed again, yesterday the incredible closeness of this group of mates who will forever have each other's backs. The fitting motto which was placed on the wall hung in full view of everyone in the hall yesterday said it all "You'll never walk alone"
Over the years, our generation has grown up, had families of their own, moved away and some have lost contact. Some of our wonderful parents have passed on now including my own dear mother in law who I miss each and every day, but even more tragic is the realisation that the next generation is beginning to be separated through illness much, much earlier than any of us expected.
Earlier this year we all attended the funeral of a very fine young man, far too young to be taken from his loved ones. Our hearts broke seeing the pain this family was in and still are in trying to make sense of it all. Over 24 years of being friends by association to this amazing group of individuals I have forged lifelong friendships of my own with this group and our hearts are aching again as one of our closest is slipping away from us. Yesterday we attended a fundraiser for this family whom everyone adores; just as they all do with each of the families who came from Elm Street.
To watch this group through the eyes of someone who did not live those early days, but learned over years of the legendary stories and joined in on many of the parties once I was inducted through marrying, I have since forged some incredibly special friendships of my own with this group of wonderful people.
I have heard my husband say many times, he had the best childhood because of these people and although they never had much, he would not change it for all the money in the world. Watching him and others from Elm Street all console each other yesterday who were bought together through the saddest of circumstances but vow to honour solidly one of their own was truly inspiring, and I was incredibly humbled to witness it.
I guess as time moves on, and we all become older, the inevitable will happen and this group will begin to shrink. The Elm Street spirit will then live on in the lives of the third generation who already connect through their parents and grandparents before them. But no matter how small this group becomes, the hearts & love from the Elm Street friendships will never diminish as they have forged a lifelong connection which I witnessed yesterday & know will never be broken.

The apartment doesn't look exactly like the photos, it needs bit of upgrading. The parking you have to pay extra at a park house and it costs us about €32 for the day. It can be bit noise at night, but if you're staying for short period it is fine.
Apartment is very spacious and in a very good spot. Could've picked it any better. Everything is there.

Washing machine is in an awkward position in the bathroom, but that's all I can find wrong.

uncomfortable without good air conditioning, but convenient location
No working air conditioning-hopeless in 30 deg plus humidity! Didn't work. Contact at Twoone did not respond when we wanted help. Flat bare, sleeps two (if you can in heat). No frills-comfort seating only for two.
good location. They helped with early check in.

Poor experience with Twoone owners, changing the apartment location t lesser one..
Property was changed to a lesser apartment by owner just prior to arrival with a story that the two one apt had plumbing issues. The alternate apartment was no where near the original location and was a very basic and odd apartment. Some lights did not work and the water pressure for the shower was very variable, done to a dribble. Overall a poor experience for us. I would not recommend staying with these people.
Very little as property was changed to a lesser apartment by owner just prior to arrival. The representative was friendly and waited to give us the key after normal check in time.

Don't do it!
Nothing. The photos have clearly been very photoshopped! The whole 'deluxe apartment' is falling apart, the painting hasn't been finished, the air conditioning was leaking and sounded like a washing machine on a spin cycle, the whole room felt damp (I say room because it's not really an apartment!), there wasn't a proper door on the bathroom. Everything felt dirty. There were hairs on the tiles in the bathroom. I could go on forever. The boiler also hadn't been left on, so we had no hot water for a shower in the morning before checking out. The cleaner arrived before check out to clean the property. No information was provided about the apartment at all, no welcome pack or instructions, nothing at all, no tea or coffee, milk etc. This property is not worth the money, i wouldn't even expect this standard in a hostel!!
The location

Forget about going there with a car. No parking available. We had to look for a spot in the streets. Although it was mentioned in the description that parking is available. That should be changed! Bathroom was more like a closet.
Location is great. Walking distance to almost everywhere.

Ok property- if you just have a day and hotels are packed
-Cleanliness -Courtesy -Access to Elevators, without climbing stairs -Attitude of the Security staff -Facilities inside the apartment like Bathroom Supplies, etc.
The location is good as Metro is accessible and so is the airport - via Bus 73, which drops to Via larga, quite close to the property. However, the cleanliness of the location and the set up is quite not what would suit a family traveller travelling with Big suitcases. The Entrance has got 20 stairs, there is no way out- you have to drag your luggage to the Lift-Lobby manually on those stairs. Secondly, there were lots of mosquitoes in the apartment. There wasn't any resolution we were able to find out, in the one day we stayed in. The Bedding is spacious and quite OK. But the problem was around the check in- you have to call the guy and then collect the keys, and even in that- we had to wait for like 2 Hours, with kids (basically spend time elsewhere) as cleaning was going on. They charged me 100% non-refundable, that's the reason I did not have any choice, but when I approached the property caretaker for early check in- flexibility was offered only till a point. So if you are planning well and don't have much on the agenda for a short stay- this can work for you, otherwise choose a city hotel. The location is good and easily accessbile to a lot of cafe's/ restaurants/ bars and grocery stores. Its in walking distance to the centre -the Duomo and the adjoining markets which is a huge area in itself. But in my trip- I was left wanting for more, from the standpoint of property. Its not as clean as it shows in the pictures unfortunately. And since its an apartment- and for obvious reasons, the security wasn't very welcome, since we were waiting for the caretaker, the security didn't allowed us inside the shelter and asked us to wait on the street with 2 kids. This was like too rude. He was Ok- once the keys were handed over to me.

Overall, it was perfetto!!!
I didn't like the fact that the couch was not prepared for the 3rd and 4th person, and that we had to do it ourselves.
The design of the apartment was really nice (the bathroom though could be better). We were 4 girls, but we had enough space. The location was amazing!

Three months after his surprise confession, K1 Group founder Helmut Kiener was formally convicted of running a €345 million Ponzi scheme.
Kiener, who had loudly, repeatedly and, at times, threateningly, proclaimed his innocence since his arrest in 2009, was ordered jailed for 10 years and eight months by the Würzburg, Germany, court. K1's accountant, identified only as Claus Z., was also convicted and sentenced to three years and nine months in prison.
"Kiener's system only worked as long as he managed to acquire fresh funds," the court ruled. "His investors' chance to earn any return was almost zero. The case is extraordinary because of its size and the number of cheated investors."
Prosecutors say Kiener defrauded some 5,000 K1 clients, as well as its banks, Barclays and BNP Paribas, which lost €223 million on the scheme.
"My problem was that I didn't have the courage to end it all earlier," Kiener said after the sentencing. "Now I have to pay for it."
Kiener's lawyer said his client would not appeal, and that he was pleased that the sentence was two years and one month less than that sought by prosecutors.

Submissions from consultations
During the summer of 2012, the Department of Health and the New Brunswick Health Council visited nine communities around the province. We talked with hundreds of New Brunswickers about our current health care system and they helped shape the vision of the 2013-2018 provincial health plan.
Input from stakeholders
In addition to the public consultation, written submissions were provided to the department by professional associations and community groups. The submissions can be read below.

The Welcoming Committee[1]
I lived in four different houses as a kid: city, suburbs, city and city again. I categorize my childhood based on the roof over my head: Sergeant Road ages 0-4, Walsh Lane ages 4-10, Crocus Place ages 10-14 and Osceola Ave ages 14-18. I associate each space with different physical memories. I think back to buckets of Barbies splayed across the basement floor on Walsh lane or the time my mom covered our lawn with fake pink flamingos for my 16th birthday on Osceola Ave. But, the truth is that those spaces were so much more than simply memories. The ownership of those spaces (or, rather my parents' ownership) bestowed me with certain privileges—privileges of house.
News networks talk about gentrification in simple terms. They talk about the new Target going up in Eden Prairie or the Trader Joes groundbreaking on the corner of Lexington and Randolph. They speak of gentrification in terms of fact—what is happening. But, their acknowledgement of what is happening—what is changing and why—leaves out a broader picture. Certainly, this conversation disregards who is displaced when a new Starbucks comes to town. But, another part of the conversation they ignore is what systems are in place to allow for gentrification—displacement in the name of capitalism—to happen. Those systems are important. They determine who has agency in any given situation. Ignoring them makes it seem as though this is just how the world is. It ignores that there are active societal structures in the country that bar certain individuals from the privilege of homeownership.
We need to change the conversation. We need to name injustice. But, we also need to name privilege. For me to talk about gentrification and homeownership, I need to acknowledge the ways I have personally benefitted from it. And, that means far more than recalling the memories from my childhood. It means critically looking at my life as it is and asking: what about my house has affected my agency in this world? This means naming privilege—privilege of house.
Ways I have benefited from a roof and walls that is
recognized by the government:
- When my parents signed me up for kindergarten they could list a permanent address associated with a school district.
- The electoral process. I can request and absentee ballot to vote in the midterm elections because I am a legal resident of Ramsey County.
- Health and sanitation. I have access to a shower with running water and a toilet that flushes.
- When I want to be alone, I can be in my own personal space.
- My house is in proximity to public transportation easily allowing me to get to the grocery store.
- I can apply for student loans.
- When I go to sleep at night I am not afraid that someone will be forced to leave.
- I can invite someone a friend over and give them the address of my home.
- I can fill out the form with my address when applying for a government issued ID.
- As a child I could play capture the flag with my neighbors without local authorities or neighbors becoming concerned that I was up to no good.
We are America—America where Jurgis worked harder. America where Zora Neal Hurston moved North. America where Alice Paul owned a home.
But, we are also another America—America where Ossian Sweet was tried for murder for protecting his home from a white mob in Michigan. America where Japanese-Americans were removed from their homes and placed in internment camps. America where every Indian nation has been stripped of their home and quarantined into meaningless pieces of land.
So, why doesn't anybody talk about this? Why does media fail to acknowledge the systems at place that allow for gentrification to happen?
My family owns a home. We own that home because of a legacy that has privileged white, upper class people. A legacy that means that because of my race, the bank won't sell us faulty loans. A legacy that means that because of my class, my family can pay off their mortgage. A legacy of America that mean says that if you work hard enough, you an own a home and be financial secure—if you are a certain kind of person.
Homeownership is written into American history. It is part of the American historical memory. Get a job. Work hard. Get married. Buy a home. Little Boxes.
The narrative of American history leaves out so much. It tells stories of triumph while leaving out stories of struggle. It is incomplete and crafted and artificial. BUT—media can change that. With media we have the ability to talk to real people who own homes and who don't own homes, who are displacing and who are being displaced. We can ask people about their real, true experience living in this country at this point in time. Just as the history of America only tells one aspect of the real American story, only talking to people who have been displaced would ignore the larger systems at play. Creating a social movement requires acknowledging the problem, but also recognizing the systems at play creating the problem.[2]
I demand a campaign that tells an entire story—one that looks at the issue of gentrification from all angles. One that uses the power of media as a tool of communication to acknowledge both what is happening and why it's happening. One that allows people to tell their stories—like mine of privilege and like others of marginalization.
This means talking. This means creating a brave space where people claim their privilege in addition to naming marginalization. This means actively engaging everyone. This means providing a forum where people can tell their stories and feel comfortable sharing them. Media can do that. With media we have the ability to record, preserve and share people's stories. As content creators, we have the ability to curate who's story we tell and why. As active participants in shaping the historical memory of America, we can choose to tell and share the stories that present an accurate, full representation of the issue at hand.
The image of America only tells a part of the story. With media, we can fill in the rest.
[1] I chose "The Welcoming Committee" as a reference to the character of Karl Linder in Lorraine Hansberry's play A Raisin In The Sun. It is meant to be a reference to my own historical privilege in the history of gentrification.
[2] Greg Bordowitz proved this effective in his use of silence in the ACT UP! campaign aimed at attacking the Reagan administration's silence.

Rant time!
Despite the fact that I'm turning 28 in a few weeks, most people think that I look younger than I am…. which is fine by me, I don't really care too much about age…. but here's what's bugging me big time. Being asked for ID while buying alcohol may be funny, cute, flattering, whatever… happens to ladies and gents alike... but getting the 'airhead'-treatment because you look younger than you are and because you happen to be female is not just rude, it's WRONG. Some examples: I'm in a hardware store shopping for lightbulbs when an elderly guy approaches me telling me which lightbulbs I need, given the sample in my hand, because, CLEARLY, I cannot possibly know anything about the difference between watt and voltage. Or, a taxi driver in Dublin assuming that my anxiety to miss my flight to LA stems from the fact that I'm a 'young chicken'. Or, an older guy at the office assuming that I don't know how to assemble the coffee machine correctly. Or, a male undergrad student who thinks he needs to explain fundamental Freudian concepts to someone who has read Freud's books as a teenager just because he thinks I'm his age and could not possibly be as well-read as him, then reacting almost shocked about finding out that I'm postgrad and 7 years older than he thought. Or, an older male lecturer coming up to me at a conference saying 'you better cover your ass, girl' (not commenting on my clothes but on research I'm doing) etc etc etc etc. I seriously have to ask myself what (not just older) men think they are doing. I cannot recall a woman treating me in such a patronizing way. I know sometimes people just want to be helpful but when I'm constantly addressed as 'girl', 'love', 'honey', 'chicken' I KNOW that I'm not being taken seriously as a person/woman! Apparently, it doesn't really matter that I have had my fare share of pleasant and unpleasant life experiences, that I'm doing a PhD and that I have worked really FUCKING hard to get to where I am right now, that I've travelled a lot (on my own) and that I speak at least two languages fluently. So why does all of this even annoy me? I could just not give a fuck and shrug it off. But that's exactly the problem. I refuse to accept the moronic behaviour of men who keep talking and interacting with (younger) women as if they are inferior, less qualified and in general just in desperate need of help and protection by a 'strong', older dude. I say BULLSHIT! I will ask for help if I need it and I don't want to be patronized because of my gender/age group. Also, I just don't appreciate people telling me what to do! Plus, I have to ask, how many (young) men actually get into situations like I've described above???? See my point?

Feeling Thankful
For me, it's a long list. I have so much to feel thankful about, so many reasons to feel lucky. For some, it may seem like an oxy-moron - a lucky brain injury survivor??? But the truth is I'm incredibly lucky. My injury was 14 years ago. For the first 6 of those years, I fell so often that to be safe, I needed someone at home with me 24/7. When I wasn't home I was mostly in a wheelchair. My rehabilitation goals were to consistently be able to speak in full sentences, feed and dress myself and accurately make change for a $1 bill.
While I still need some support services and still have deficits , my life today is rich and full and more independent than I, my family and my enormously skilled and dedicated rehab. professionals would have dared to imagine.
I wish I could tell you I've discovered the secret to improving so much, that there was some formula I could share with other brain injury survivors. While I have, in fact, worked hard on my rehab and just as hard at dealing with the emotions that come with such a significant loss, to a large extent I think my "secret" is luck.
Yes, in the ever-expanding pool of survivors of brain injuries, I am indeed one of the lucky ones. I'm lucky in that the nature of my brain injury allowed for significant improvements and that much, although not all, of my brain damage is in the sub-cortical region of my brain (the part of your brain that's not in charge of intellectual functioning). I'm lucky, too, that at Bryn Mawr Rehab Hospital I found a remarkable team of rehab professionals led by Dr. Richard Bonfiglio, an experienced and empathetic physician who never let any of us forget that this is my life and my rehab and continues to this day to remind me that recovery from a brain injury is a lifelong process. I was lucky to have found Dr. Marcia Hochberg, an inspiringly insightful rehab psychologist who, no matter how often I lose faith in myself, never seems to tire of reminding me of my capacity to cope. Luck helped me find a Vocational Rehabilitation counselor who saw me as a person rather than an open case file negatively effecting her success rate and who was able and willing to think outside the box. I've had the good fortune to find enormously empowering case managers from Plan of Southwest Ohio who have an unparalleled commitment to individualizing services and an uncanny ability to walk the line between empowering independence and providing help when needed. Thanks to the talented staff and volunteers from Circle Tail. I have a brilliant and beautiful service dog who keeps me from falling down, makes sure I take my medication on time, and cuddles me no matter how irritable I become. And perhaps most of all, I'm lucky to have family and friends who have been unwavering in their love and support.
Yes, I have so very much to be thankful for.
So, there it is, my first blog entry. If you decide to read it once in awhile or subscribe, I promise to do my best to avoid boring you with the minutia of my daily life.

Yes, Tina, you have much to be thankful for.ReplyDelete
Uh-oh, you will be hooked now - once you start blogging, there is no stopping! But, you have much to share with others about going forward and about life after having suffered a brain injury. Much can be shared through a independently published book too!
Tina, you have always inspired me and I don't have a brain injury, It is a privilege to follow your blog....ReplyDelete

Tina, you need to know that I find you inspiring and I'm quite sure I'm just one of many of your friends that feels that way. The courage and determination you show daily and the remarkable challenges you have overcome give me reason to laugh off obstacles in my life and buckle down to acheive my goals.ReplyDelete

Tina .. I love that you decided to blog and share yourself with the world. You have such a great way of expressing yourself (or maybe it's just the wonderful way you see the world) .. You are an inspiration -- and always have been ... "It's a wonderful life". And I'm glad you are in mine. Thanks for being you! Love you Tina.ReplyDelete
Tina, you are truly an inspiration. Your positive and humorous outlook on life is something we can all learn from. I look forward to reading about your upcoming adventures! I am so happy that we are "family". Love, Laurie :)ReplyDelete

Tattoos and those who bear them continue to struggle for mainstream acceptance and legitimacy in society. While the practice has been an integral part of cultures all over the globe, here in the U.S. it's only been over the past few decades that we've opened our hearts and minds to the practice. Formerly tattoos were strictly considered a mark of criminals, sailors or other undesirables, the public perception of tattooing has come a long way.
The overall perception of tattoos as inherently unprofessional may be leaving some inksters with a lingering case of tattoo regret. Fortunately, as the tattoo industry has grown, so too has the tattoo removal industry – laser tattoo removal is more accessible and effective today than it's ever been.
Getting a tattoo is a life changing experience. You either want more or you never want go through that agony again. In the military tattoos are popular for expressing one's personality. The military is all about uniformity, tattoos are a way of showing personality. I got my first tattoo when I was 18 and I wouldn't say I regret it but I certainly wish I didn't get it. Since being in the military I now have eight and I love them all except the ones I got when I was 18 because they were on a whim. All the tattoos I got while I was in the Military all have meaning and each one was thoughtfully picked.
Tattoo Fails – This is a link to horrible tattoo fails. If you need a good laugh or your thinking about getting a tattoo make sure you do your research before permanently inking your body.
Interesting facts:
- Six percent of Americans had at least one tattoo
- Fourteen percent of Americans had at least one tattoo
- Seventy percent of tattooed millennials hid their ink
- There was an almost nine percent increase in tattooed adults from 2003 to 2006
- People aged 18-24 were the second least likely to have a tattoo
- More men had tattoos than women, but barely
- Miami is the most tattooed city in America
- Just 16 percent of people with tattoos regretted getting one
Below is a video from BuzzFeed and its about people who are getting their first tattoo and how they do during the inking process, healing process and how they feel after it has healed.

I have designed a business card,letter comb and letter head for this task as this was required in the brief.Also,I think this task was quite fun and enjoyable as I enjoy designing business cards because I can easily work great on the computer.
I found some of my class mates work really interesting as the logo's seemed really colourful and simple.They had better work as they used Photoshop and Illustration techniques.However,I have learnt to produce my Mood-board better and creative as Sunny gave some ideas how to improve my business card.
The key task for this work-shop was to complete a business,letter head and letter comb as this task was to look at other peoples work.This task was quite fun because Sunny literally said my logo is quite simple and has a really lovely pattern,also she liked my business card but she thought to make the outcome a bit simpler and creative by using no flower designs

So excited for all the families getting their calls! All the pictures being posted makes the wait a bit more bearable.
China finished the placement of children for the families whose dossiers (adoption application documents) were registered on/before March 14, 2006. China has 13 days worth of dossiers to process before they get to our dossier. Currently China is matching 4.3 days worth of dossiers a month, so at this time we should hear something by September or October of this year. Maybe sooner???

Great Scott! I've got it!!!
While it didn't take me hitting my head on the porcelain of my toilet (a-la Doctor Emmett Brown), I did come up with a great idea . Like some sort of "Inception," (ok ok two movie references are enough!) the seeds were planted while sifting through my e-mail last night after a long drive to Fort Lauderdale. An old trainer of mine, Ken Bowman (here on Facebook) sent me an e-mail asking if he could use me as an example of a client he's helped. Of course I was happy to help out!
But it wasn't until this morning that it hit me…as nerdy as I am and no matter how much research I do, I'm not REALLY a trained professional. I figure…until I get my PT license, anyway…why not interview ACTUAL personal trainers for their tips and how they got to where they are now? I think it'll save you from my diatribes at least once a week and is a great way for everyone involved to get social media exposure.
Now, off to do a little cardio! I've got a "Beach Day" with my mom tomorrow for my rest day, so I'm going to make this count!
If you guys have any trainers you think I should pitch this idea to, send me an e-mail over at firstname.lastname@example.com or leave comments!

In 'The Tempest', Shakespeare subverts the social buttresses of 17th century Europe to explore the true nature of the "human" when exposed to the natural, rather than civil, world. Catalysed by the titular "tempest", the fundamental "affections" and nature of each character manifest in slavery and inhuman malignance on the island. However, Prospero finally electing the "rarer action…in virtue" rather than "vengeance" reflects a final optimistic view of human nature. Prospero relinquishing his "so potent art" also mirrors Shakespeare's move to "restore" the nobility of the human and the movement of the narrative from "tempest" to "calm seas".
Shakespeare reveals humanity's capacity for both "virtue" and "fury" through notions of servitude and by questioning what it means to be "human". Prospero takes pains throughout the play to ensure that his "spirits obey", being "in charge" over the "spirit" Ariel and the beastly Caliban. Prospero's use of imperatives such as "Go, release them" and possessives as in "My spirit", along with Ariel's deferential use of "my lord" evince Prospero's position of superiority. Prospero's "project" gathering "to a head" equates to the imprisonment of his enemies, who he seeks to make suffer through his "vengeance" and "potent art". Prospero initially measures the success of his machinations by the "King and's followers" being "penitent" and "distracted", rather than by achieving restorative justice, evincing a sense of misguided antipathy. Yet it is emblematic of Shakespeare's humanism that Ariel, "which art but air", spurs the shift in the "drift of (Prospero's) purpose" towards reconciliation. Shakespeare alters the course of the play towards relinquishment and forgiveness to enact Prospero's justice and "restore" the nobility of the "human".
As Gonzalo articulates at the end of his play, each character gains a newfound sense of understanding "when no man was his own" on the island; Prospero's realisation of what it is to be "human", becoming "tender" and "kindlier moved", reflects Shakespeare's shift towards natural and social restoration. Visibly moved by Ariel's affections, who would release and forgive Prospero's enemies "were I human", Prospero's plans now "extend/Not a frown further". A sense of humility develops in Prospero, hitherto unseen in his character, illustrated in his self-recognition as "one of their kind". Despite the "high wrongs" done against him, Prospero hence begins to seek the "rarer action/In virtue than in vengeance". Shakespeare evokes a sense of impending reconciliation through Prospero's assertion of "my nobler reason" that now quells his "fury" and his promise that "they shall be themselves", presaging Gonzalo's speech in which "all of us (found ourselves). Shakespeare signals a far more positive perspective of human nature in the narrative shift to "restore" both the natural world and the goodness of humanity.
Whilst Prospero has manipulated his "potent art" for "vengeance" throughout the play, the relinquishment of his "charms" here captures his progression towards a more "human" and "tender" nature. Prospero's "magic", akin to Shakespeare's creative power, has been an ambivalent force in the play, much like the noble aim yet "malignant" means of enacting his "project". Whilst Prospero used his "art" for the harmonious union of Ferdinand and Miranda, he recognises his use of "rough magic" for crude and violent ends. Prospero articulates the extent of his power, having "bedimmed/The noontide sun" and "oped…graves", before resolving to "abjure" his power and "drown my book"; whilst he "distracted" his enemies through illusion, he now seeks to "restore…their senses". Prospero's relinquishing of his "art" is made more significant as it was his focus on "magic", rather than his duties, that led to his exile. By sacrificing his power, Prospero restores his attention to "worldly ends" and a recognition of his own humanity. This is also mirrored in the water imagery underpinning the play, moving from "tempest" to "calm seas". Shakespeare concludes the play on a note of reconciliation, having demonstrated "virtue" in humanity through Prospero's shift in "purpose", and "restore(s)" each character to their social order disrupted by the "tempest".
