Wow, the end of last year was completely manic. I was busier than I'd been all year, work took over my life and brain and bed seemed like my only reprieve, sometimes. Thankfully, I had some time to shake that off!
Despite me not posting my empties online – still such a weird concept – I did keep track of (mostly) what I finished/liked/disliked/whatevs, so here we go… A little late, but oh well:
Creighton's Coconut and Honey Indulge Bath and Shower
This was alright. I liked that it was a huge bottle and lasted a pretty decent amount of time, considering I'm not super shy when it comes to the amount of product I use. The smell got a little boring every now and then, so I did switch it up with Creighton's Lime and Grapefruit Energise Bath and Shower. Probably won't repurchase – not because it wasn't nice or hydrating, just that there's a billion other things out there which could be more exciting than this.
Tony Moly Changing Magic Mask Sheet Mask (Tea Tree)
Loved this! Looked like a serial killer, but it's all good. Thanks to AwkwardPurse (hi!) I now have allll the masks. I can't wait.
The Body Shop Vitamin E Overnight Serum-in-Oil
Another product I love-love-loved was this stuff. Now, I have oily/combo skin and initially thought that maybe this wouldn't work so well for me. Lies. All lies. I used this in evenings, like 5 out of 7 days a week and every morning, my skin felt amazing. It has a bit of a dry oil consistency (it's not a wet oil, if that makes sense), absorbs very quickly and gives me a glow! I haven't repurchased this because I cracked open the Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate that I got from a blog sale – which is working amazingly as well. I will get this again, though, cos Kiehl's is a bit more of a splurge.
Creighton's Lime and Grapefruit Energise Bath and Shower
Into December, I finished this 500ml bottle. I must admit, I loved the zingy fragrance of this shower gel over the coconut one especially in the hot weather. Again, would I repurchase? Maybe, but probably not.
The Body Shop Camomile Waterproof Eye Make-up Remover
I got this as a gift in May, I think. So it took me forever to finish it up. To be fair, it was a decent size tube… This is a weird one for me. I liked it but it wasn't immediately effective. What I mean by this is that with an oil cleanser, you don't have to work for it. You slap it on, rub and your makeup is off. This required some time, especially when it came to removing mascara. Due to that, this makeup remover was relegated to the makeup shelf where I used it to clean up mistakes or if I was desperate, to take an entire face of makeup off. I won't get this again. I've replaced it with my first micellar water ever (woot! Garnier, btw)
Neutrogena Visibly Clear Oil-Free Moisturiser
Ugh, this is another weird one for me. When I first started using it, I loved it. It worked so well for me. And then it just stopped. I felt greasy and gross and it made my face feel dirty. I stopped using it and moved onto something else. Then, when I had run out of everything, I went back to this. It worked again! And then didn't again. So frustrating. I managed to finish the tube (I loved that it was in the tube. I don't like tubs for my face cream) but it was a struggle. Didn't go out and buy this again. I'm using Sampar Pure Perfection Barely There Moisture Fluid – really liking it…again, thanks for the heads up, AwkwardPurse!
Dermalogica Multi-active toner (50ml/travel size)
This. This stuff is lovely. I've never been a toner person. I've never felt like I've needed a toner. Early last year I was at my wit's end with my skin. It wasn't spotty, just really oily and after tweeting for some suggestions, One Stiletto at a Time told me I should give this a go. Now, Dermalogica is a scary place. They have all this amazing skincare but the price (especially earlier last year) gives me heart palpitations, so I settled on giving the travel size a go. Oh yes. It's love. I haven't repurchased this year, but I will soon.
Essie Ridge Filling Base and Mavala Super Base Coat
Both good products. Both went rock solid before I'd even finished the bottle. Oh, and with the Mavala, I encountered endless nightmares despite it being a really good product. If there's even a tiny bit of product on the lip of the bottle or on the screwy bit, it is like super glue. Every time I wanted to use this stuff, my dad had to get the wrench out. I'm not joking. Pity. As a base coat, I'm using Sorbet's basic base coat.
Here's to spending less and using more. Or something like that.

I am a bad person; at least I FEEL like I am a bad person.
I presently feel this utter… dislike for someone in my life. In fact today I felt so angry, I borderline felt like I hated them, and that's a very strong emotion.
I feel like this person is so toxic in my life that I will never, ever progress past the person I am today until I can say I have separated myself from them. To remove their pathological lying, their negativity, their emotional abuse, their childish behaviour.
I will not have my beliefs ignored simply because you enjoy doing things to piss me off.
I will not judge my abilities because YOU don't like what I do – everyone else does, so clearly that's YOUR problem, not mine.
I will now allow you to use your fluctuating moods to dictate the running of the house. You can sulk, puff around like you're dying, or refuse to do things – I will work around you. You will not guilt me.
I will ignore your put downs. I will not believe that I am the person you paint me out to be. I understand that the things you criticise about me are aspects of yourself that you don't like that you are projecting on to me, or simply things about me that are better than you and you feel the need to 'knock me off my high horse'.
I will not lose faith in myself because you tell me I can't do it. I am smart enough. I am good enough. I can do it. I understand that by holding me back from my potential, you can keep me under your thumb where you can see what I'm doing and dictate my life, but this isn't fair. It doesn't matter what YOU want in my life, I am my own person and your controlling ways are not healthy for me. But you don't care. You only care about yourself.
I am the bigger person. And it's very sad that the rest of the household have to put up with your shit.
But all of the above doesn't stop the fact that I feel like a bad person… when you feel this way about your own mother, what does that say about you? Does that make me the bad person she paints me out to be? The older I get, the more I realise no… it doesn't. It just means I got lumped with a bum deal for parents.

PHILADELPHIA — The opponents differ and the cities change.
But the results remain mind-numbingly consistent for the
By now the numbers are as familiar as they are freakish:
— 41 wins in 49 games, the best stretch by a major league club in seven decades.
— A 24-3 record since the All-Star break and a 14-1 mark in August
—18 wins in their last 19 road games. In fact the last time the Dodgers lost twice in the same city was June, when they were still last in the National League West.
They're in first place now, of course, by 8 1/2 games, which is the only number Manager
"I played on a team in high school that won 59 straight games. So I want to win every day," he said. "And I think it's possible. Sometimes you can get caught up by saying, 'Oh, we're not supposed to be doing this. We play .500 on the road, that's good enough. That's a good trip.'
"Not necessarily."
Especially not if your pitchers are as good as the Dodgers' have been. When
Yet in Greinke's mind, the relievers, three of whom combined to get the final five outs without yielding a hit Friday, have been even better.
"The bullpen has done the best job. It's been pretty incredible," he said. "It feels like they've got 200 straight scoreless innings."
Close. Dodgers relievers have given up only one run in their last eight games.
"We expect to win and we have been," said Greinke (11-3). "That's kind of how it's been. It hasn't crossed anyone's mind that we're going to lose."
Greinke's latest gem ruined the managerial debut of Hall of Fame second baseman Ryne Sandberg, who took over on an interim basis Friday after the Phillies fired
But Sandberg didn't get a chance to do much managing in his first game because the Phillies, who have lost 20 of 24, didn't get a runner to third until the eighth inning. By then the Dodgers had the game in hand, scoring the only runs they would need on
They added a pair of runs anyway, getting one in the seventh when catcher
After which Mattingly set his sights on winning again Saturday. Because when he looks back on his time at Reitz Memorial High in Evansville, Ind., Mattingly doesn't remember the 59-game winning streak as much as he remembers the loss that ended it.
"I was on the hill," he said. "It sucked."

Celebrating East African Writing!
As promised, I was looking out for a winning comment. The following comment wins 1 season Ticket to Storymoja Hay Festival on September 19 – 22, 2013 for daring to question a decision, and for justifying the question. Your comment doesn't really change the decision of the judges but we hope it can open up a conversation on style, taste and execution of creative writing. Thank you, Henry.
Henry Juma Said:
For the first time since I started reading this blog, I disagree with the choice of winner.
i. Contest rules: In announcing the contest, it was stated "Double extra points if your story is completely unrelated to the photograph.".
Stories like "Miss Independent" and "Vicar" executed this perfectly, going very far outside the confines of this carnival/festival setting, as did "Touch".
"Almost Family"? Not so much.
ii. The reason stated for "Almost Family" winning was memorability. In writing style alone, "Touch" stayed with me, because it's outside the norm.
"Almost Family" was fine, but it swayed towards generic: the narrative format, plot progression and such were just…ordinary.
A month down the line, one is more likely to remember "Touch", if just because it made me more aware of random touch for the rest of the day.
Please understand, I'm not saying "Almost Family" was a bad story, it was well written. I'm saying to me, "Touch" stood out, it was above average and honestly deserved to win.
I have stated my discontent, ladies and gentlemen, I hope the authors will take a stab at the next contest as well.
Henry's comment is in relation to this decision here. So, what does everyone else think?

Is this Busan? It seems so 🙂
Yup, it's Busan. Was flying from Jeju Island that time. 😊
I love mid – flight photos. I've never flown that airline before! I don't recognize the paint.
It's Jeju Air. One of Korea's lowest fair airlines. 😁
XD Can't say I've been a passenger! Thanks for the reply. =)

To the nearly 1700 people who have filled out my questionnaire so far, a huge thank you. And to those of you who kindly passed it on to others, an even bigger thank you! (See my original post on the questionnaire.) I'm thrilled to have received so many responses. The questionnaire is still live until 1 October, so if you haven't done so already there's another month to fill it in or forward it around and about.
As there is, not surprisingly, rather a large skew towards the younger, tech-savvy end of the scale, I'm particularly after older people – and people who are less than impressed by the influx of English in the Netherlands!
Many of you were curious about section III of the questionnaire, where you had to complete a grammaticality judgement task. In short, people were keen to know whether they got the answers 'right' or not. As the questionnaire is still live I can't post anything about that yet, but I'll be sure to at a later date, along with the results from the other sections too.
Thanks again for your participation!

Medical Mary Jane - Cure-all for what ails ya?
I'm sympathetic to those who believe and have experienced the benefits of medical marijuana. Yet, I still have serious reservations about the way the law was rushed into being here in Rhode Island. There still seem to be a lot of gray areas. And the examples put forth by the ProJo's in-depth look at Colorado's medical marijuana landscape don't do much to alleviate some of my suspicions regarding those who actually, really do need it and those who are, well, taking advantage of the seemingly inherent benevolence of the new system. For instance, the piece opens with a sympathetic look at 67 year old Richard Collins, who we're informed was a "Marine Corps veteran" who "never had a brush with the law."
But you would be hard-pressed to find anyone who smokes more marijuana than this Montana native. He tokes "all day, every day," to ease a host of ailments including depression, back pain, headaches and arthritis.Then there's young Steve Horowitz, owner of the Ganja Gourmet who:
grew up on Long Island, started smoking pot at age 17. He said it helped him cope with attention deficit disorder.First we heard of the benefits of marijuana when it came to helping alleviate the nausea associated with chemotherapy and the like. Then we heard of its benefits regarding the mitigation of severe pain. Well, I can believe that. But now, we learn that it is being prescribed to help with arthritis, depression and ADD. I wonder what is more dangerous: a person with ADD driving a car who is taking his regular medicine or one who smoked a little pot to, you know, get more focused. Regardless, it seems like we have a genuine wonder-drug here, folks. Either that, or people might, just might, be abusing the system.
I prefer a good right wing drug: Bourbon. Try Makers or Red Stag on the rocks or in a Manhattan.Posted by: Tommy Cranston at March 13, 2011 1:24 PM
Careful Marc, you're risking an attack from Gang Ganga. This topic creates as much vitriol as illegal immigration or gay marriage. I suspect the future will create even more controversy when because of a lack of accountability, it becomes prevalent in the workplace.Posted by: Max Diesel at March 13, 2011 1:54 PM
I have no idea why marijuana is illegal for any adult when cigarettes and alcohol are legal. Completely legalize it!Posted by: Patrick at March 13, 2011 4:55 PM
Roger that, Patrick, it's a weed for goodness sake, albeit, a weed that packs a whallop when cultivated properly, but I wouldn't know about that.Posted by: michael at March 13, 2011 5:52 PM
I never thought I would, but I agree with legalization. By some of the projected revenue of the applicants for licenses, we could create a lot of jobs. Agricultural, processing, wholesale and retail, for a start. Why let a few people make all the money - legalize it for all, open it up for all, and make it affordable while we're at it. If kids get into it early,what's the difference, they are all drinking and having sex qand babies as "tweens", and those whose parents from the 60s and 70s never stopped smoking it learned it was ok to break the law. Let's just do it now and give the economy a boost.Posted by: riborn at March 13, 2011 7:04 PM
My 90+ year old grandmother who goes to church everyday just tried her first brownie last week.
She has stomach pain and nausea. She had a half brownie, and for the first time in years although she still has the pain she doesn't feel like she is out at sea.
She can't believe how good she feels. This woman has been on all sorts of meds since having a cancer 15 years ago and a tumor removed from her throat.
She doesn't have a card, but is getting it from my brother who has a card for something like back pain or whatever he said when he went to the doctor.
With the new tax on barbers people may grow their hair longer and get with the green. Now let's get back to some of the music of the 60's and 70's. Can I get an Amen.Posted by: Phil at March 13, 2011 7:32 PM
I have never smoked marijuana, and it is insane for any state to keep it illegal. Colossal waste of tax dollars both in enforcement and foregone revenue.
From everything I've read and every doctor I know, it is a by-and-large harmless substance with a number of legitimate medical benefits.Posted by: Dan at March 13, 2011 8:13 PM
Amen, Brother Phil, Amen.
Funny this article should come up. I'm not a pot smoker, but I've been known to drop my guard on occasion.
Anyway, I -do- have a chronic pain issue with a slipped disc. It's usually fine, but I need to take a few Advil before I go to bed just to keep from waking up from pain.
So a few weeks ago, I took a tumble off a hill at the dog park (my dog is better at king-of-the-hill than I). By the time I got home, things had tensed-up to the point where I couldn't turn my head and my hands were numb (yay, pinched nerves).
Normally in this situation, I'd call out of work the next day, and immediately start a regimen of bed rest, prescription muscle relaxers, and pain killers. Anyone who's taken those know that the knock-on effects last for a few days, and involve nasty gut-related issues ('relaxed' muscles don't move food).
On the advice of a friend, I walked to her house and took, literally, a pencil's eraser-sized bit of pot (market value $3). I smoked it, drank a glass of water, and went to bed. Eight hours later I woke up bright-eyed, bushy-tailed, and feeling like nothing had happened at all. The only side effect was that 'brushing my teeth felt really cool' and I had a few vivid dreams.
So for some things, I have to say, the MJ might actually be the best solution. Is the medical marijuana system going to be abused? Sure, but no more than the current prescription system is (ever wonder how many prescription painkillers end up on the black market or are prescribed directly to addicts?). Overall, I think the whole medical marijuana issue is sort of stupid anyway, the stuff is more ubiquitous than decent beer. We may as well decriminalize the possession and production of it, slap a tax on it, and issue fines for selling it without a tax stamp.Posted by: mangeek at March 14, 2011 11:46 AM

"At Topeak, exciting new ideas for accessories are spinning at full speed and driving us ahead in a never ending cycle of innovation."
"Since Rokform was founded by veterans of the power sports industry, we get to draw on their expertise of high tech materials and manufacturing methods which you'd normally find in aircraft and high performance racing vehicles. These methods and materials make up the really cool, award winning phone cases and accessories you see today."
"For more than 20 years, creating and selling useful cycling products with an innovative difference has been our mission. We work very hard to make our products better and deliver superior value to what else is out there. If we can't achieve either, we don't do it. That's why we offer only a small, concentrated product line that represent the best there is in each category"
"Bicycle use has changed greatly in the last 10 years but we see a bright future in cycling and stay committed to developing products that everyone can understand. MINOURA will continue to enhance product development and planning to keep our 80 year promise of delivering great, well-built products."
"People ask, "Why Banjo Brothers?". The name was born over beers one night while we sketched photos of co-joined hillbilly twins while making "Deliverance" themed jokes. This is still our idea of a productive meeting. The point is, we probably weren't cut out for the cube farm.
We had a good name for the business but the niggling question was, "now what?" A trip to the local bike shop was the spark. On the shelf was a thinly-featured, over-priced, totally underwhelming seat bag. The rest kids, is history"
"A touch of this, a hint of that, it takes a lot of webbing and weave to make a Timbuk2 product. But each material counts. We evaluate the performance and durability of our materials by testing their tensile strength, seam slippage, water column, tear abrasion, ball burst, mullens, colorfastness, and other sexy things. Only materials that meet and pass our rigorous testing earn the right to be integrated into Timbuk2 products."
"At Birzman, our mission is simple, keep riders riding, exploring and living boundlessly. In doing all we can to keep you riding, we make commitments: We are committed to producing tools that are more functionally efficient and durable. We are committed to producing tools that share the same pride of place as your bicycle."
Out on the trail and on the open road is where enthusiast, pro-teams and pro-riders get to experience the Birzman difference.
"Lezyne's mission is to create the most advanced and beautiful cycling products, ever. Bicycle hand pumps, floor pumps, digital pumps, shock pumps, multi-tools, tire repair, bags, bottle cages, CO2 inflators, tool kits, saddle bags, organizers, shop tools and more."

There are a handful of people that actually know who I am. I suffer from depression and want to check out of Hotel Life. Now that number of people just got quite a bit larger.
The world might not be against me, but my world is against me.
I am doing this narrative as an exposé on myself and the physical and emotional struggles of depression. Depression is different for everyone. I want to show you some things that I have gone through to get where I am today. I will show examples on how the effects of medications take their toll on me, how individuals change their view of me once they have the knowledge of my feelings and lack thereof, and how my life is a daily war of attrition to not give up on everything.
I am shifting my focus onto this vulnerability project rather than be stagnant in my own feelings of vulnerability. I am not succumbing to the fear of uncertainty, but rather I am choosing to be open and share this process in a way that I haven't done before in hopes that it will resonate with others who may be experiencing similar struggles.
Vulnerability, to me, is sharing the actual truth of my mental and emotional experience to people I know, people I do not know and to people I will never meet. Vulnerability is giving the answers to the questions of what I look like, how I feel and how I think every day. Vulnerability, to me, is this project.

Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert: "In the night between Thursday and Friday, when the secretary of state wanted to lead the vote on a ceasefire at the Security Council, we did not want her to vote in favor.
I said 'get me President Bush on the phone'. They said he was in the middle of giving a speech in Philadelphia. I said I didn't care. 'I need to talk to him now'. He got off the podium and spoke to me.
I told him the United States could not vote in favor. It cannot vote in favor of such a resolution. He immediately called the secretary of state and told her not to vote in favor.
She was left shamed. A resolution that she prepared and arranged, and in the end did not vote in favor."
By Noora Ahmad
Islamic Post Staff Writer
Israeli Prime Minister, Ehud Olmert, openly told of his influence in American politics during a speech made in Israel on January 12, in which he claimed to have directly influenced the United States vote on the U.N. Security Council, which instance was reported by both The Agence France Press (AFP) and The Associated Press: "I told him [George Bush] the United States could not vote in favor. It cannot vote in favor of such a resolution [U.N. 1860]. He immediately called the secretary of state and told her not to vote in favor."
Condoleezza Rice, however, countered to the Bloomberg news agency: "I don't know if the prime minister was – I hope – quoted out of context, because the story that I read in the newspaper is fiction."
Regardless of the veracity of Prime Minister Olmert's account, AFP continued its report by noting the outgoing U.S. President, and his administration, to have "consistently placed the blame for the conflict on Hamas, telling reporters… that while he wanted to see a 'sustainable ceasefire' in Gaza, it was up to Hamas to choose to end its rocket fire on Israel."
The Congress, a branch of government initiated to represent the American people in an independent manner from the White House in the system of democratic checks and balances, upheld the position of George W. Bush in this scenario by passing a resolution on January 9 with a 90% majority vote expressing "vigorous support and unwavering commitment" for Israel, laying the "blame both for the breaking of the `calm' and for subsequent civilian casualties in Gaza precisely where blame belongs, that is, on Hamas;" but quoting but Prime Minister Olmert, not the former president, when the Israeli head of state asserted: "The operation in the Gaza Strip is designed, first and foremost, to bring about an improvement in the security reality for the residents of the south of the country."
Only five members of Congress (10%) seemed to have represented the flood of Americans who protested against the Israeli aggression. The representatives who voted "Nay" included Representative Dennis Kucinich (Democrat- Ohio), Rep. Gwen Moore (D-WI), Rep. Nick Rahall (D-WV), Rep. Maxine Waters (D- CA), and Rep. Ronald Paul (R-TX).*
In a stroke of irony, according to recorded numbers of those protesting the Israeli offensive (for or against), the American people would have voted almost exactly the opposite as did Congress. Out of the 60,100 people recorded to have protested in the United States regarding the Israeli bombing of the Gaza Strip, only about 10% (6100) protested in favor of Israel, whereas 54,000 are on record as having protested against Israeli policy and for Palestinian human rights in various U.S. cities. Approximately 90% of the protestors 'voted' against Israeli excesses, whereas 90% of Congress felt the actions of the occupying forces to be correct.
United Nations Human Rights Council passed a resolution condemning the Israeli offensive wholeheartedly, and demanding a return to the 1967 borders with the Palestinian capital being East Jerusalem. Shortly afterward, the U.N. headquarters in Gaza were bombed by Israel.
*(Whereas the Congressional numbers include the abstentions, making the actual percentage of "Nays," in comparison to our study which does not include abstentions, 13%.)

Browse these hard drive recovery services with great ratings from Thumbtack customers in Reynoldsburg.
I highly recommend Bryce and would hire him again without hesitation. My laptop was running very slowly and in my own efforts to reformat and reinstall, I succeeded only in making it completely non-functional. Bryce and I agreed that perhaps a new (and larger) hard drive would be the best answer. Bryce ordered and installed the hard drive and then reinstalled Windows from the disk I gave him, and all of this he did well ahead of the time I thought it would take. Amazing and very commendable service. Throughout, Bryce has been great to work with, listening to my concerns and bringing to bear his considerable experience with computers. I would say that he did indeed go above and beyond to make sure I was happy. It has been a great experience and I highly recommend him. He is a very good guy to work with.
My laptop all of the sudden wouldn't boot windows. I had ALL of my pictures of my family on that computer and Brad was able to get all of my data off of my hard drive thank goodness even though my laptop is shot. He even drove my laptop to my work when he was done. Thanks Brad!
I was very happy with the response, speed and completeness of the service - which included retrieval of data from a crashed hard drive and a replacement. Court Dawkins at Rapport Connect was professional and polite. I would not hesitate to recommend this company, but suggest the user make expectations clear around warranties and replaced hardware.
I have been doing business with Richard for a few years. He and his wife are very personable, knowledgeable, and loving people! I will never do business with any other company, as long as they are around! I refer all my friends and family to them. Service is fast and efficient!
What to say about this company...everything was EXCELLENT! He came over twice just to get the job done, also sold me a hard drive. He's very nice and informative. HIRE HIM! :-).
Great service. I had was having hard drive issues, and he willingly took on the problem without complain. Affordable and efficient, and constantly in communication. I would definitely recommend to everyone.
Dan did a fantastic job restoring my lost files from a corrupted flash drive. He was extremely flexible and accommodating with the drop off and pick up. His price is reasonable and he is very professional. He saved some very important information that I thought was lost forever!
I've got nothing but positive reviews from my experience Davon! His customer service is also fantastic, very open about the process for fixing your computer (in my case hard drive), giving you an exact time frame, and calling you to check up. He had my hard drive fixed in minutes! I saved myself a ton of money not having to buy a brand new hard drive and I was so grateful for his honest professional opinion. Davon treated my computer and personal information with respect and care. I will definitely use him in the future and recommend him to friends!
Tim's customer service is outstanding. My new hard drive is working great. I would highly recommend his services to my friends and family. Good work. Good price. Can't beat that. :)
I have a couple of laptop computers in my home. One is for my use, the other one is for my grandchildren to use. My grandkids love to download games, watch videos, and they do their school projects as well on their computer. With their downloads, they have inadvertently "downloaded some problems" as well. Unfortunately, I can't blame all of the issues on the kids, I have had my fair share as well! As much as I am on the computer, I know nothing about what to do when things go wrong! Trish has worked on my computers for years. I count on her expertise every time my computers have issues. She has taken care of virus's, retrieved information that I thought I had lost, downloaded my info onto an external hard drive for safe keeping, as well as help me with downloading antivirus programs to protect my computers in the future. I always get them back in good working order, in a timely manner, with the issues fixed.
Terry had my computer back in no time and the price was so fair. These other places want 60 bucks just to take a look. However my experience with Terry was very easy and straight forward. He told me everything he did to my computer and I even specifically asked what was wrong with it. Because for over a year I couldn't play certain games on my system. Well Terry, my computer is running perfect for me! I'm a heavy gamer and I haven't seen any problems out of it. I'm so appreciative I could find someone loyal ,close, and experienced with computer systems in my area. Terry did a great job and I know if I have further problems he would even try to help before even seeing it my computer.Also he gave me helpful websites to trust to download software and helpful tips for further troubleshooting if any comes in the near future. Phoenix PC Repair did a outstanding job and hopefully I wont need any repairs in the future but if i do i know where to go. Thanks again!!!
We have been searching for a good IT guy to fix our computers at our Auto Body Shop for some while now. Lucas was exactly who we were looking for. He was on time, and able to solve ALL of our needs for a reasonable price. The support he is able to give is great, it is like having our own personal IT guy! We would recommend his services to anyone who has trouble with their computers, he really knows what he is doing!
Patrick' skills and knowledge of computers has come to my aid on multiple occasions. Patrick was able to troubleshoot and solved all problems quickly and efficiently. If I have any questions, I can always rely on his prompt, sincere and reliable answers. Patrick shows great pride in his work and you can see his passion in computers. Patrick treats each computer or laptop like his own and shows the utmost care.
Hard drive crashed a couple months ago so I decided to go online for some repair quotes. Phillip responded immediately with a great price, not only did he give a great quote, but also offered a great deal on a replacement drive. Phillip was able to replace and restore my previously backed up files in a few hours. Great Job!!!
Osaze was able to diagnose the problem and determine my laptop was not repairable. However, I forgot to ask him if the hard drive was replaceable.
My hard drive crashed - twice! Both times David took the new HD I bought and installed it in my laptop and rebuilt the operating system. He is very professional, detail-oriented and thorough. I have recommended him to friends.
Arvin worked very hard to help me with my computer problems and did a lot of research from a company all the way in China. If you need help give Arvin a call
Miracle Worker While on vacation in Myrtle Beach, my computer started acting up. It kept telling me to enter BIOS settings and to reboot my computer. Not knowing anything about BIOS settings, I restarted my computer. The same BIOS screen popped up. I left the computer alone for a couple hours and it finally said Starting Windows, but was moving at a snails pace. I went to the library and did research on computer repair shops and settled on the highly recommended Just Ask Hal. I took the computer to him and Hal himself thought my hard drive was inoperable. I shared that the computer was only a year and a half old and I was surprised that a hard drive would go out so quickly. The computer had been built from components bought from TigerDirect in May of 2013 by a fellow who was no longer available. The computer had performed flawlessly except for an LG disk drive that had gone out a month before my vacation. My son replaced it with an ASUS disk drive as I am not computer savvy. One of Hals seven technicians, Nelson, called two days later to confirm that the hard drive was bad and that I had likely lost all my data. I was crushed as I had been foolish and not backed-up my data for some time. Nelson said hed use another program and let it run all night to see if anything could be done. The next day, the results were that NO data was recoverable. I was crushed. I asked Hal what brand the hard drive was because I didnt want another one of that brand. He said they didnt recommend Western Digital, but when he opened the computer, he said it was a Seagate, the best in the business. I asked what might cause the best in the business to go bad and he thought it might be the size - it was a 2 terabyte. Hal asked if I wanted to have a new hard drive installed, but I was so distraught over losing my data, I politely declined. Hals fee for diagnosing and attempting to recover the data was only $30, very reasonable, but I had lost so many family photos and document files that I was thunderstruck! Later, when I got home to Lancaster, Ohio and had access to another computer, I started searching for more information on data recovery. I saw that many companies used clean rooms to recover data and got the impression that data recovery was a time-consuming, expensive and equipment-intensive process. I would rather use someone local, but I feared that my hard drive needed all the help it could get. Local shops, like the one in Myrtle Beach, might not be so equipped. I called Seagate and asked their fees. It was $49 initially with my shipping the hard drive to them. If they found sufficient data, the charge would be $600. Wow! I also filed two requests for online quotes from Kroll Ontrack and Columbus Data Recovery. Kroll Ontrack, the nations largest data recovery company, called soon thereafter. Their initial fee was $69 with the drive needing to be shipped to Minneapolis. Kroll provides you with a list of the files recovered (which was nice) but the final cost would be between $700 and $1300 depending on the amount of data. I was overwhelmed! I received no response from nearby Columbus Data Recovery. I really didnt want to ship my hard drive anywhere and to pay such a high price, but I was concerned about local shops having the equipment and know-how to recover any data from my dead hard drive. I called a gentleman in Canal Winchester, The Geek Guy, and he was honest and helpful, but I think he indicated that he sent out hard drives to data recovery places (maybe like Seagate and Kroll) and he estimated that data recovery might cost about $1000. I called the only local shop, other than Best Buys Geek Squad, that I could find. A friend had recommended that I not use Best Buy service even though I had bought many good products from them. I called Mobile Geek Ohio and the owner, Shane Eppley, came to my house (yes, a house call), reviewed the problem and said he would be willing to try to recover the data. I was hopeful, but expected the worst. The following day, Shane called and asked if I was sitting down. I sat down and said yes. He then told me that he had recovered EVERYTHING! I cheered! It was like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders! He came over (another house call), showed me all the files. I could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Thank you, Shane. Thank you! And the cost? $60 for data recovery! Are you kidding? Heres a tip! Thank you so much, Shane. He then installed a new hard drive for a modest price and I am back up-and-running! You will have all my computer business from now on, Shane. So much appreciated! I sincerely recommend Mobile Geek Ohio. He worked a miracle for me.
There had been several issues with my laptop that were very frustrating and time consuming. After getting my computer worked on by PC Rescue Services, most of them were solved. I had mentioned a problem with Outlook Express. I believe it was the next day that I got an e-mail saying that he believed he had discovered what the problem was. I followed his instructions and fixed it! Have been very happy with the results. The price was very reasonable and I was quite pleased.
I have had many different computer issues over the past few years and Thomas Dunn has always been helpful, quick, and professional.

BOSTON – The three games just ended and the three yet to come would have been interesting anyway, simply because of who they're against and where they're played. Red Sox-Mets at Fenway and Yankees-Mets at the Stadium may not have the cache, the history or the tradition of Red Sox-Yankees, but both of those series are irresistible no matter what the calendar says, no matter what the standings say.
This year, they were more than that. They are more than that.
They are exams, benchmarks, measuring sticks. They are opportunities to gauge how high the Mets can reasonably expect to aim. The three-game sweep by the Red Sox that culminated with last night's 4-2 loss doesn't necessarily alter that; three more equally uninspired games this weekend might.
"We're not going to waste any time worrying about what's happened," Willie Randolph said.
"That's the first time we've lost three in a row all year. It's the first time we've been swept all year.
There's always bumps in the road, and this is one for us." No one is prepared to cede the Mets a postseason berth yet, but it's getting to the point where whatever resistance the rest of the National League East might have been able to mount in defense of that inevitability is laughably low, if not dead altogether.
The Phillies should be better than they are, but have a gaping hole where their heart is supposed to be. The Braves might have been ready for a drop-off, but not this inexplicable and inexcusable collapse.
Let's face it: When the Florida Marlins, they of the buck-threeeighty payroll, are your closest pursuer, you really don't have a close pursuer.
So far, these Mets have yet to remind anyone of the great powers in baseball history, but they do have the kind of lead only the greatest teams enjoy, an 11-game cushion that, really, could have been even gaudier if you consider the dreary dregs they're lined up with in the NL East. That's good if you want to spare your fans the gastronomical grind that a nailbiting pennant race can engender.
And bad if you want to see if you've got enough stuff to make a genuine go of things in October.
"What we have to worry about is taking care of business in the NL East," said David Wright, whose torrid bat cooled down ever so slightly across these three days in Boston, but who was thisclose to delivering the Mets with an eighth-inning gapper that Red Sox center fielder Coco Crisp tracked down, one of the great late-game catches you're ever going to see.
"Interleague games are great, it's good to play teams and play in ballparks you don't get to very often, but they're just games you need to win like any other," Wright said. "They don't mean more or less. We have to worry about the East. We do that, we'll be fine." The Mets are too good, with too many workable parts, to languish too long when they return to the comfort zone of the National League. Once they're paroled from interleague play they get four games at Shea against the dreadful Pirates, which should be more than enough to cure all that might ail them, then they get three at home against the Marlins, with the chance to send that battling band of upstarts on their merry way to fight again in 2007.
The Mets are good. No matter what happens against the American League, they are going to remain good, good enough to win the NL East, probably good enough to claim home-field throughout the National League playoffs.
But is good enough, good enough?
That's the question they were pondering as they took the field at Fenway Park one last time last night, daring to dream of a return trip here in October. That's the question they'll ponder at Yankee Stadium this weekend. And it's one they'll take with them the rest of the way, as they muddle through the business of wrapping up a playoff berth.
There are worse places to be.
But there are better ones, too.

Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.
– Anonymous
This quote is intense and yet, in a way, true. In continuing on the subject of words, as is true of anything, words are most powerful, purposeful, and beautiful, and at the same time, they can be most dangerous, hurting, and offensive. I love that we have freedom of speech, and freedom with words. I like that words, in this time of instant communication can be sent from anywhere, for anyone, with immediate purposes. Concurrently, given freedom and this instantaneous communication through words, words can be cheap, quick, not thought through, and hurtful both to ourselves and others. At times I cringe reading other peoples' Tweets or Facebook comments, thinking, "Do they know what they just said?" or "How they just sounded?" or "Who just read that?" When I read into other's thoughts through their words in those venues, I often think how frustrated they are with themselves, or how negative they are about themselves, or afraid, hurt, sad, or jealous, because if they weren't, their words wouldn't flow so negatively.
Which brings me to the point I was pondering today – we can't speak into other's lives or their use of words, but what we can do is listen to our own words. If our words are negative, condescending, hurting, judging, mean, or loose, what is going on inside of us…those are the things we can control or address. As the quote above states, our words represent our thoughts…listen to your words. Listen to the things you say about others. Listen to the things you say about yourself. Are you words critical about yourself? "That was a stupid thought." "I am so dumb sometimes." "I should be shot." "If I had a brain." Ever hear yourself saying these things? Some call these words "self sabotaging". These statements are not your destiny. Don't let them become your destiny. Stop them, cancel them, clear them, change your thought pattern so that you don't live in such vibration, such beliefs, for not only do you attract into your life such negativity, but you also attract others' similar thoughts and beliefs about you. My friend has studied the "Mastery of Words", and has taught me so much about listening to my words for what they are attracting or really saying…and sometimes they are not purposeful for moving me in a forward direction.
One who studies words, would probably have much to say about what I just wrote, in regards to attraction and negativity, I appreciate that. As my friend says, when you start to be cognizant of your words, you find yourself saying little…
So with that said, I will say little more…except that I appreciate the freedom we have with words, I appreciate others' kind and insightful words, and I appreciate the creativity in words…thank you for sharing your words…and letting me share mine.

Feature Friday: Polka Dot Madness
By the 1930's, polka dots were seen on many garments in stores with bows and ribbons. And by 1940, it even made it's way into a song by Frank Sinatra called, "Polka Dots and Moon Beams" because of it's rising popularity.
The Los Angeles Times was quoted as saying, "You can sign your fashion life away on the polka-dotted line and you'll never regret it."
The craze continued on into the 1950's with Marilyn Monroe sporting a polka dot bikini as well as the famous Brian Hyland song, "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini." It seems like from day one, polka dots had fame on it's side...
So where did the words, "polka" and "dot" come from?
In the mid-19th century, Polka dots had many other names, such as "Dotted Swiss," which referred to raised dots an transparent tulle. During the this time, a dance called "Polka" was also becoming a craze and somehow, the two got linked. However, the only thing they share in common is the time they became popular.
The word "polka" itself means "little woman or girl" which could be a reason "polka" came into play since polka dots were seen as widely feminine. However, as the print continued to gain popularity, men wore it more as well. Even comic books, like Marvel's 1962 "Polka Dot Man" were sporting the print.
"Dot" on the other hand, is derived from the Old English word, "dott," meaning "speck."
The first magazine to print the term was Godey's Lady's Book in an 1857 description of a garment. "A scarf of muslin, for light summer wear, surrounded by a scalloped edge, embroidered in rows of round polka dots."
Do you wear polka dots?

I wanted to try out some fabric techniques that differ from the standard dyeing or tie dyeing process, however when I approached the print room staff about being inducted in the dye lab they had stated that it was something they taught in classes and not until after Christmas which wasn't exactly what I wanted to hear, but this just urged me to try it myself at home. I located a craft store in town that had hand use dye and purchased some with my intentions being to see what effects i could make with different dyeing process that I'd be able to do at home.
I began by looking at some online tutorials for other fabric dyeing techniques that I might not already be aware of and found these two that I particularly liked:
For this experimentation i only used one colour dye which is why my outcome differed from the online tutorials but i wanted see what effect this would have, and get a feel for the process more than anything.
so i prepared small squares of fabric for the different methods, using the same types I had used for screen printing as I have considered the possibility of printing onto dyed fabric so wanted to see how the dye would take to these materials.
This hand stitched method is used to create vertical striated pattern in the fabric, achieved by stitching in lines and pulling the strings together and tying them at the end to hold the pleats together.
It didn't come out as best I'd hoped, a technique that is clearly better with the use of more than one colour.
for this process I wrapped yarn around my fabric which was wrapped around a bottle, pushing the fabric together slightly in certain areas to create textured lines
I really liked the outcome of this, I like the variations in tone, and the light feel of it as it seems to give a natural somewhat uncontrollable feel to it, its almost like the monoprint of dyeing.
Other techniques…
For this process I dipped a sponge in the dye and pressed it against the fabric to create a blotchy tonal texture
By dripping the dye onto my fabric I was able to create a splatter effect
By getting a spray bottle and filling it with the dye solution and spraying the fabric i was able to create a very soft tonal texture, by spraying one area more than another I was able to create the darker tones
Though I'm not sure if this is something yet i want to use within my work, I enjoyed and found the process interesting, I also enjoyed being very hands on, getting a bit messy and trying something purely experimental. I think its also been good for me to see what i could do with dyeing, how each technique is achieved and how it turns out, so that if in future I do want to use it, and can judge if I think certain techniques effect will apply to that work better I know what needs to be done to achieve that, as well as having an idea as to how it should look.

Let's Help.
You know how there was that huge snowstorm that ruined the city for a couple of days?
Well there are still a bunch of huge icebergs along the sides of the streets.
So The Burger and I set out to climb, conquer and claim the one in front of the
Boar's Head deli meat distributor.
When we got to the top He was all like:
"So you got the claim flag, right?"
"PLEASE tell me you remembered the flag! It took us an hour to get up here!"
"Well maybe one of us should learn how to put our fucking mittens on and we could have gotten an earlier start!"
"DAMMIT! I told you I don't know what the fuck a fuckin' thumbhole is!"
On and on we screamed for the better part of 15 minutes until we remembered that we had to get home to watch the Packer game. So I got down on my belly and he jumped on my back and rode me down the side of the berg.
The rest is pretty uneventful... unless you consider a HUGE Packer win uneventful in which case it may be time you asked yourself if this relationship is really worth moving forward with?

The plan
Posted February 7, 2012on:
As I said yesterday, I am a glutton for self-improvement. My constant desire to gain more knowledge, meet more people, be more active, and do more to make my mark is a reflection of that.
A huge chunk of my "story" up to this point involves being a member of my high school swim team. I joined post-initial weight loss as a means of remaining extremely active on a daily basis while surrounding myself with a team of friends. I don't regret the drive the swimming instilled in me; however my habit of treating my stomach as a black hole was a tough one to kick when I decided to embrace life beyond the pool, Junior year of high school. Even now, I sometimes find myself reverting back to my garbage disposal ways, especially after a nearly sleepless night or when I am feeling especially unproductive.
Overall, my diet is healthy. I tend to eat mostly vegan with the occasional cup of yogurt thrown in there. Its the weekends that murder my progress. Lack of sleep, mindless activities, and friends who know how to practice portion control better than I only inspire me to indulge in all of the things that I swear off Monday-Friday. My overarching goal for the next 12 weeks is to strengthen my ability to practice portion control, maintain my healthy lifestyle through the weekends, and ultimately reach 140 pounds for the first time in several years.
140 pounds might sound pretty big for a 5'5″, 19-year-old girl; however, at 140 pounds my body (in which muscle grows like a forest fire) is a size 2-4 and is beyond fit. I am at my happiest there. Just an aside, I believe the concept of "happy weight" is SO important. When your favorite jeans are too tight, it ruins your day; when that definition in your upper abs begins to melt, you can practically hear the gym calling; when you make it to the gym and find yourself winded after half of the workout you used to do, you spend all night google-ing "ways to get in shape fast" "calorie counters" "gym apps for iPhone". When you feel your best, all of your clothes fit, weight maintenance becomes second nature–that is your happy weight. Unfortunately, I have only been at this point for about a month during the past couple years. I am ready to embrace my happy weight!
My Plan:
1. Disclose my weight to the world and GET OVER the number. So here I go folks, I'm swallowing hard just doing this: 162 lbs. Yeah I know, I know its more than many GUYS my age. I don't like the number, I don't like it at all (It's better than the 170lbs I saw when I stepped on the scale immediately following Christmas break). But when I put it in perspective I am a size 6; I am training for a marathon; I am a fitness instructor; I can do more push-ups than probably any of my girlfriends (ok maybe not one, but I will probably do a whole post on her later); and I am driven…it is just a number. Nonetheless, I'd like to see that number at 140 and will be updating on my progress.
2. Identify the tools I will be using to reach my nutritional goals: myfitnesspal app, fit book, Chalene Johnson's PUSH, Bethenny Frankel's Naturally Thin, Awesome Note app. I will be doing specific posts on each of these.
3. Slightly reforming my fitness routine. When I first got to college, I was a workout fiend–so much so that it probably had a negative impact on my grades, a desirable impact on my waistline, but I'm at college not a weight loss camp. Toward the second half of last semester, I began lifting weights, pretty heave weights, on an almost daily basis. This was fun while it lasted and a nice addition to my well rounded fitness background; however, I added about 15 pounds of muscle to my already extremely muscular frame. After discovering this, I decided to ditch the bench and barbell (for the most part) in exchange for a more female-friendly regular attendance of Body Sculpt and Piyo class. As far as cardio goes, I am in my 5th week of training for a marathon in Kalamazoo, MI, instruct Turbo Kick, and incorporate low impact cardio like cycling or elliptical on my days off running.
I hope you still have time to study after reading all that.
Tomorrow: The fun stuff starts! Review of myfitnesspal app and how you can use it in dining courts.

Football is a sport that is watched by millions of Americans, some of which reside in New Jersey. Fans cheer for their favorite team as they battle their opponent. Sunday get-togethers in the fall are often even centered on the day's game, and party-goers dress up in their team's colors.
The NFL isn't just sport or entertainment, it's a workplace too
FLSA now defines clear employment rights for nursing moms
Whether readers of our Evesham Employment Law Blog were on board or against it, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act recently went into effect across the nation. While the main focus of this piece of legislation was health insurance, it wasn't the only area of law that was affected.
Clothing or protective gear? Steel workers argue the latter
For most employees, the uniforms that they wear at work are put on at home. If the workplace is an office, the mandatory shirt and tie was taken out of their personal closet. If the workplace is an airline, the slacks and captain's hat was put on at the house or the hotel. For servers at restaurant chains, the company shirt is one that they get to bring home, and the list goes on.
Workers over 50 having trouble finding the job they need
There are a lot of reasons that people find themselves searching for a job. Maybe they are just starting out in their career, maybe they are unsatisfied with their current position, maybe they're in a company without a lot of room to move up or maybe they want a job that provides a better work-life balance.

Danger Buds – Brought To You By The Number 7 And The Letter W
Posted June 4, 2009on:
A while back I was at a friend's house and a few of us we were sitting around chatting and having a beer. As is par for the course I was distracted by some music I was hearing and could not stop doing the ole noggin shaker while everything else started to turn Charlie Brownish. I was the kid and they were the adults and I all could hear was "wah-wha-wha-wah" and a wicked tune in perfect clarity. I decided that it wasn't proper for me to be off in la-la land whilst consuming their top notch beverages so I interrupted my daydream to ask what we were listening to. The response I got was Chris Joss.
"Chris who", I said?
"Chris Joss"…
"Moss"? ….
"No Joss"……
"Chris Joss?"
"Who is Chris Joss?"
My friend proceeded to tell me a little about the man and a little more about the music not that it really mattered at that point. I already knew I was going to rush home and download whatever I could find of Chris Joss and that's exactly what I did. I think it was 2:30AM when I crawled into bed that night very fond of his Teraphonic Overdubs CD and specifically the song Granted. I was content to have found something new and exciting to sink my teeth into musically. This sounded to me like great background party music. Dance music for people who hate dance music was something that came to mind that night as well. Images of artsy 70's movies were flashing through my mind's eye through this musical journey.
Today I am going through many of my bookmarked links looking for updates and news on artists I follow and was elated to see that Chris Joss has a new CD out recently, called Sticks. I was equally surprised to find that he has a video out from Sticks called Danger Buds. Great tune. Great music. For some reason this tune makes me think of that classic Sesame Street episode that was brought to us by the number 7 and the letter w. You know the one.
"Danger Buds" by Chris Joss is a Life of Tunes keeper and a trippy feel good funk tune to boot. A fun video too!
Enjoy and check out more of Chris Joss as soon as you can!

The following article is from the wonderful blog "Aruban Breastfeeding Mamas" (link above)
Why breastfeed in public
A friend of mine had glossed over a study she had read about primates not knowing how to suckle their young if they had never been around other primate mothers suckling their young before they gave birth. I went on a search for that study because, quite frankly, I think its truth extends into the human family too.
It says in part ;
Primates are, generally speaking, an exception to the general rule of easy nursing. A study of infant-mother long-tailed macaque monkeys showed that they use the same oral nursing motions as other mammals (i.e., suction - German et al., 1992). Yet most primates appear to require a period of leaning in order to successfully nurse their offspring as compared to other mammals (Smith, 2005). Hrdy (1999) has proposed that this learning may be a trade-off between the reliability of innate behaviors and the flexible power of a learning brain. Data from isolated primates provide evidence that without observing or experience nursing, monkeys face a strong likelyhood of failing to nurse succesfully (Abello & Fernandez, 2003 ; Harlow & Harlow, 1962)
This could well explain why today women just don't 'know' anymore about breastfeeding. The reason for the majority of doubt amidst new mothers' ability to nurse their young is partly to blame on never having been 'exposed' to it when they were young, growing up, or on a daily basis. You know how when you hear a story, and over some years of not having heard it anymore, you tend to forget bits if not, whole chunks of the story. Although breastfeeding is natural, and instinctual, because of it fading into the minority, it has become 'instructional'. We need books, workshops, seminars, classes, and not to mention support groups.
So what should breastfeeding mothers do? Just what a lot of people object to. Nurse in Public. Anywhere, anytime. You'll be doing other young women, children, mothers to be, a big favor

Amazing how after 50 years we are still at the same point!
Even though this is 2 years old, reviewing it again is still very dismal…
* When will black America wake up and take responsibility to teach self esteem, balance and value?
* When will black America wake up and teach their babies that black is also beautiful and just as special as being "white" even though they won't be treated as such?
* When will white America wake up and take responsibility for their contribution to this?
* When will white America wake up and give up some legislative, media, and judicial "control" to those that truly represent "America"?
* When will America just be considered America and not "blank" America?
This is sickening to see! Black babies wanting to be white because they are inundated and indoctrinated with white media, white commercials, white dolls, white toys, white posters in stores, white instruction manuals, white diagrams, white mannequins, white history and hell even a white God. The irony is, white people don't even see it thus its perpetuation. They only put a black man in play when the fed government says you have to show "Diversity".
And so we are going to just chalk this up as "ignorance" and "let's just move forward"?
In order to put sheets on the bed you have to see what size it is first. We cannot begin to address the solution until we can see how big it is, who it's affecting, and truly understand its causality.
So my contribution to a solution is opening a school however, how effective will my teachings be if all my history books are incorrect or represent a skewed perspective? All educational TV stations have 96% white actors/personalities and more than half my staff/vendors will be white? 😦

Mohammad Modarres
"I believe the greatest form of activism is in social entrepreneurship. I'm on a mission to create products and programs that bring people together and promote interfaith unity and dialogue. "
Mohammad Modarres is an Iranian-American social entrepreneur. He is the founder of Abe's Meats, the award-winning social enterprise that has produced the first-ever interfaith meat products that are both halal and (glatt) kosher. Abe's Meats is housed by Interfaith Ventures, an incubator for social profit organizations. The journey to create Abe's Meats began in November 2016 when the rising wave of anti-Semitism and Islamophobia inspired Mohammad to host an interfaith Shabbat dinner, which he called "Shabbat Salaam". But as he set about organizing this dinner, he found that endeavoring to serve only halal and kosher foods was expensive, time consuming, and a logistical nightmare. This led Mohammad to put the dinner on hold and spend the next year driving his '79 VW Bus up and down the California and Oregon coasts to meet with farmers, religious leaders, and culinary enthusiasts to learn how to bring halal and kosher meat production practices together. In addition to being the first interfaith meat and a product that is better for the environment, it was a spark that brought people together. Inspired by this, Mohammad has since expanded his efforts to include the first-ever interfaith mezuzah, interfaith tree topper, interfaith children's books, and more. His mission is to create products and programs that bring people together and promote interfaith unity and dialogue. He believes that the greatest form of activism is in social entrepreneurship. Previously, Mohammad was the co-founder of a biotechnology company in San Francisco. He is a Johns Hopkins public health studies graduate and a George J. Mitchell National Scholar.
Some of Mohammad's main topics include interfaith dialogue, social entrepreneurship, combating Islamophobia, Iran, identity, and inclusivity.

BAY CITY, MI -- The day before her trial was to begin, a 34-year-old Bay City woman accused of drunkenly crashing into another car and injuring its two occupants accepted a plea offer.
Erica L. Strickland (also known by the surname Reid) on Monday, May 15, appeared before Bay County Circuit Judge Harry P. Gill and pleaded no contest to two counts of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated causing serious injury. The charge is a five-year felony.
The prosecution did not agree to dismiss any other charges.
In a previous Cobbs hearing, Gill agreed not to send Strickland to prison on her initial sentence. However, the court "reserves the right to utilize all other available sanctions at sentencing," records state.
A Cobbs hearing sees a judge outline the likely sentence a defendant will face if convicted.
By pleading no contest, Strickland did not verbally admit to having committed any crime. Gill had to rely on police reports to enter convictions on the record.
Those reports state that at 8:52 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 18, police responded to a crash site on North Henry Street near Mosher Street on Bay City's West Side. A white 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix had been heading north on Henry as a blue 2012 Chevrolet Malibu was heading south, according to police reports contained in court files.
The Pontiac, driven by Strickland, crossed the center line and crashed into the Chevrolet, several witnesses told police. The Chevrolet was driven by James Smith, 62, and his 57-year-old wife, Therese Smith, was a passenger.
Police on the scene had Strickland exit her car on the passenger's side, as the driver's side was too badly damaged, court records show. Strickland said she didn't need medical attention, but smelled of intoxicants, had slurred speech, and glossy, bloodshot eyes, police wrote in their reports.
"This isn't me. I don't do this," Strickland repeatedly told police, according to their records. Strickland told them she was coming from a bar, but didn't specify which one, how many drinks she may have had, or how long she had been at the bar, court records show.
Strickland refused to submit to a personal Breathalyzer test. Officers arrested her and obtained a search warrant, then took her to McLaren Bay Region hospital for a blood draw. Two samples of her blood were taken at 10:32 p.m., though the results of the draws were not contained in court files.
The Smiths were transported to Covenant HealthCare in Saginaw. They suffered serious but not life-threatening injuries, court records state.
Judge Gill is to sentence Strickland at 1:30 p.m. on Monday, June 19.

I love the feeling when the sun is shining but you think, "Hmm … I could probably use some long sleeves!" It's my favorite. So I'm really grateful for this week's relief from the heat. And while I've resigned myself to the fact that cooler temperatures are not yet here to stay, I'm enjoying it while I can.
And besides the actual season change we're all observing, Kyle and I are entering a pretty "busy" season of life, it seems. And while "busy" is pretty much the only word for it, it's a very satisfying sort of busy. The kind that feels productive and not just time-consuming. And I'm amazed at how that's affecting a lot of things in a very positive way. Life is looking pretty good right now.
