"Everybody's crippled," he told students at Midland High School on Thursday afternoon after telling of his experience of a school in the Australian state of Tasmania. As he watched students enter for the assembly, one boy ran into the glass of a door, and people laughed. Then, Dabbs saw he had a cane, and realized the boy was blind.

With encouragement from Reggie Dabbs, an audience of Midland High School ninth and tenth grade students give each other hugs at the end of Dabbs' motivational speech. Dabbs was brought in to speak as part of the Week of Nonviolence.
Reggie Dabbs taught students this week about domestic violence, teen sex and self-mutilation - without even saying the words.
"Everybody's crippled," he told students at Midland High School on Thursday afternoon after telling of his experience of a school in the Australian state of Tasmania. As he watched students enter for the assembly, one boy ran into the glass of a door, and people laughed. Then, Dabbs saw he had a cane, and realized the boy was blind.
"I'm crippled 'cause of my past," he said, adding his mom was a prostitute who needed money. "I'm the result of that $20 bill."
He grew up with another family, and still remembers the night they told him about his real parents, when he was in second grade.
He also sent a message to the guys in the room.
"A girl is not some sort of porn site or magazine under your mattress," he said tersely; a real man honors, obeys and trusts, gives respect, opens doors and pulls out chairs. "I wonder how much better of a man I would have been if my dad would have been a man."
"You can't change your past but you can change your future," he added.
He told about his best friend when he was growing up - one day, yelling was heard across the street and then came a knock at the door. It was his best friend, "holding his teeth in his hands," and asking for Reggie's family to help his mother as she was beat by his father.
|Reggie Dabbs speaks to a group of ninth and tenth grade students from Midland High Thursday afternoon as part of the Week of Nonviolence.
The Master's Commission, a group of interns who travel with Dabbs, presented skits set to songs - the first was "Beautiful Day," by U2. The interns depicted Dabbs' friend, a girl teased by other students about her body and a girl who's trying to find the love she never had by dating boys.
"You have no idea what your words do to people," he said before the song began and the students acted out their parts. When the pounding beats and act were over, the students sat in chairs simulating a class, and smiled - representing the mask everyone wears to hide their pain.
After Dabbs played a love song for the students on his sax, it was time for the students to go, but many stayed behind to talk to him. They hugged him, shook his hand, told him about the things they've gone through.
Senior Elizabeth Thompson told some of her story; she lives in foster care, with an older sister serving as her foster mom. Thompson and her two older sisters were abused by their father, but she didn't want to leave the home unless her younger sister came too, which she did.
Thompson attends Midland High after getting back on track while going to Education Training Center.
"I've been getting better friends … a better lifestyle," she said.
She hugged Dabbs, and told him she first heard him speak when she was in eighth grade, right before the two years of abuse started.
"You helped me be strong," she told him.
"That's why we're here, that's why we came," Dabbs said. "You gotta take the stuff that's really bad and combine it with stuff like hers," he said of how he deals with hearing students' stories.
Junior Kurtis Frymier said the most important for thing for him out of the presentation is the lesson that violence comes in forms other than physical means.
"It was inspirational," he said.

human vice can't be treated by education. what does it take to abolish it, i don't know.
my workplace is crawled with people with high to highest education. those w/ ph. d. swamping the place like bee hive. i have nothing against them. i give education the utmost respect. i couldn't agree more that knowledge is power.
but fancy degree is irrelevant. drama is always present in office atmosphere whatever degree or the lack thereof.
one ph.d. holder i have to work w/ is very bitchy. she pretends to be nice when we're in group but v. condescending to me when alone. she observed my class but instead of talking to me face-to-face about my performance, she gossiped w/ other tutors that my teaching really needed to change. i, for the light of me, can't understand why she did such thing. how would talking trash behind my back be good for her, apart from having a good time at water cooler? isn't the whole point of this observation to give advice to new tutors? i feel ashamed and disappointed. it's so obvious that advanced degrees can't elevate your e.q.
so miss phd, you have earned yourself this hypocrite cup of the year.

Because I woke up singing it. It's a sad song but the point is that I woke up singing.
Once (Jednom) by Djordje Balašević
(translated on the spot by Manja Maksimovič)
Once they were planting a lime tree
Old Nestorov, Mr. Čeda and another guy,
I was new in that cartoon,
neighbour's little kid who was allowed to watch.
Old Nestorov, burning the weeds, said to me:
"You're young, you'll be here for the shade."
Once I loved for real,
I mean love as in true, silly and immense,
I drove a thousand miles
like that ugly Frenchman in a beautiful movie,
rails were pulling me under the wheels of the machine
but she saved me,
she switched off all the rest.
Hey, everything comes to its place,
I've known the rules since forever:
only sadnesses are counted.
Hey, church bells are tolling on St. Luke's day
it's the autumn, it always brings me down, grey as it is.
Once she passed me by
with a guy who I knew, I almost said hi.
She lowered her eyes in time
but it was enough for tumult in my mind.
A meaningless hello and a nod
and everything that follows,
there there, dolly, it's all right.
Once they were burning the leaves off that lime tree
the smoke was pillowing skywards
where there are – since they have passed –
Old Nestorov, Mr. Čeda and another guy.
Who doesn't understand the tree first
and only plants it after,
accomplishes nothing
and he'll realise sooner or later
he has no idea what shade is.

Steven LoBue was a three-time state diving champion for Ewing High School, but he never could have foreseen the heights he'd reach—or dive from—nearly 15 years later.
The EHS graduate became the first U.S. male high diver to win a gold medal at 2017 FINA High Diving World Championships in Budapest, Hungary, on July 30. FINA is the international swimming federation.
"In the moment," LoBue says, "it's a super surreal feeling where a lifetime of training and hard work and experience came together to finally come away with a big win at World Championships."
LoBue was the most consistent competitor to win the 27-meter diving event. He trailed Gary Hunt of Great Britain until the final dive. LoBue put pressure on with a successful inward five somersault half-twist dive that vaulted him to the gold medal when Hunt failed on his final dive.
"I've been on that stage and had some limited success here and there," LoBue says. "It wasn't really until this year that everything started to click together and I had a successful World Cup and was second there."
LoBue says he thought the event was a good opportunity to appreciate all the time he's put into the sport and his journey in getting to this point.
"It comes together and that's where I got that surreal feeling," he says. "I felt like I was watching a movie, like a flashback of all the training and then here's this super sweet moment."
High diving, or cliff diving as it is marketed outside of FINA circles, is held off platforms or cliffs approximately 27 meters high. The Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series has its next stop Sept. 3 at Possum Kingdom Lake, Texas.
"It's obviously terrifying every time you step on a platform, even as a professional who's now done it for seven years," LoBue says.
Unlike 3-meter or 10-meter diving, high diving competitors try to enter the water feet-first because of the force generated from such a high jump. And until he won the world championship, LoBue was most famous for a video that went viral of a dive in France in 2015 in which he hit his head but suffered only minor facial injuries and returned to competition.
"A lot of time my diving is not as consistent so I have the potential to be up there and win an event, and I have the ability to crash and burn," LoBue says. "I don't know if that plays into how I'm viewed."
He adds that he has worked hard to establish himself as a top-tier competitor, and he believes that he has achieved that, for the most part in recent years.
LoBue was never one to back down from a challenge on the board. He began diving as a 7-year-old with the Blue Dolphin Club Diving Team at The College of New Jersey.
"His very first flip, he landed flat back on the board," recalls Dolphins head coach Candace Gottlieb. "His parents sat in the stands and never moved. I tell younger divers about it. He got back up and said, 'I know I can do this.' We thought he was amazing as a young diver and he got better and better and better."
Says LoBue: "That really translates to who the successful athletes are in the sport. It's super overwhelmingly mental. There are so many physical things that go with it, but if you don't have the mental capacity, it's not even worth it."
LoBue knew immediately that he liked diving more than baseball or soccer. He grew more serious about diving in his high school years. He still keeps in touch with Gottlieb and follows the Dolphins.
"I think about that place a lot and that club holds a special place in my heart," LoBue says. "I think about the years since I graduated there. That's how I'm judging my time. It's been so long since I left that team in 2003."
LoBue, whose parents still live in Ewing, went on to a decorated career at Purdue University before eventually finding high diving and now the top of the podium.
"I'm super proud of him," Gottlieb says. "It was really exciting to watch him on TV. I put it right up on my website to let everyone on the team know how well he did. It's exciting for the younger divers to see where they could go if they put in the work. Watching him at that level and the things they do, it flabbergasts me."
LoBue won three straight New Jersey state titles from 2001-2003 before going on to Purdue, where he was a three-time All-America and named the Big 10 Diver of the Year. He teamed with another Blue Dolphins product, Kyle Mitrione, to finish eighth in synchronized diving in the 2004 Olympic Trials. After his NCAA eligibility was up at Purdue, he found high diving.
"I sort of fell into that crowd my last couple years of school where I wasn't competing any more, but I had spent such a long time in my life dedicating to a specific skill set and I wasn't ready to give that up," LoBue says. "The idea of performing where the audience won't care if you do a good dive—you perform in a competition and you have that feeling of being judged the entire time—so to get back into the entertainment aspect of it kind of reinvigorated my passion for the sport."
LoBue found the chance to dive at a live-action stunt show in China for a year. It was the first time he experienced the 27-meter height used for high diving events. LoBue left China for a job diving off a high dive on the back of a Royal Caribbean cruise ship. A friend told him that Red Bull Cliff Diving was holding an open tryout in Australia for the 2011 season, and Mitrione convinced him to give it a try.
"I flew out and qualified and it's been a full-time thing ever since then," says LoBue who was the 2011 Red Bull Cliff Diving Rookie of the Year. "Your whole life you're told there's no avenue in this sport after college, and to have it is more or less living the dream. That's pretty much been my mantra—living the dream and keeping it alive."
'Steve does the biggest dive in the world… He's got so much guts.'
Since 2013, FINA has sponsored a world championship event every other year and there is a push to make it an Olympic sport for 2024. Thanks to the support of Red Bull and FINA, the sport has made a comeback to a time like the 1980s when it was a common feature on the weekly Wide World of Sports television show.
"It's done a very good job of pushing it to the public eye," LoBue says.
The sport is big in Europe. For example, in France in 2009 there were 68,000 people watching a live competition. In the U.S., the sport has had some success but hasn't gained as much traction.
"When I first started, the same three or four guys were just trading spots on the podium," LoBue says. "Nobody else could hang with them. Now there are people coming from diving backgrounds realizing they could give this a shot, entry level dives are things people were just inventing in 2009 and 2010. The progression of the sport has been exponential in the last 10 years. Hopefully it'll continue to move that way and we can start a grassroots program and help kids realize there is life past competitive diving in college."
LoBue has been successful in a sport that has challenges beyond just those of the competitions. To meet those challenges requires a special resolve.
"We don't have a way to train from that height," LoBue says. "When the season is over, I go six or almost seven months in the winter without doing this thing. Imagine a pro baseball pitcher never throwing for however many months and then stepping up to the World Series. That's what it's like. You have all this time off and have to be able to put it all together.
He says that the thing that helped him this year was thet the world championships were at the end of a one-month road trip where they had a competition every weekend. There were two Red Bull events and then an invitational and then the FINA Championship.
"A lot of the guys were feeling that, that it had been a long trip and they were sort of worn down," LoBue says. "That's where I start to feel more comfortable because we've gone a couple weekends in a row doing this difficult program and I was able to build up to it mentally in the weeks prior."
Those that knew him as a young diver say they are thrilled to be able to follow his professional diving career. They have seen him cultivate his skills into a world championship.
"Steve does the biggest dive in the world," Gottlieb says of the 5 somersault dive. "It amazes me. I can remember when Steve did a back 3½ on the 10-meter and crashed one time. He's got so much guts. He spots extremely well. You have to be able to do it at that height, no matter what. Your dive is done so quick."
Explains LoBue: "A lot of times the diver will dive to their strengths. Some people do multiple twists. That was never really my strength. I was better at spinning. When you're up that high, you kind of do anything to create some sort of feeling of comfort, so you dive to your strength. For me, that was always the rotational type things. I always feel more comfortable doing that than a lot of twisting."
Even though LoBue can't practice off a 27-meter platform, he gets plenty of practice and has to keep himself fit year-round. The competition season runs June through October. He is in the gym four to six days per week, and works on diving three to five days per week.
"Most of the practice lineups I do from the 10-meter," LoBue says. "What was once a terrifying competition height in college is a playground, which is interesting. I do a majority of the dives on the platform and working on the mechanics of the dive, the takeoffs, the entry."
LoBue stays close to diving as an instructor for Fort Lauderdale Diving for children 5-10 years old. LoBue has lived in Florida since 2011, but he returns to Ewing as often as possible, and after his world championship gold he heard from many who knew him growing up.
"It's just super exciting," LoBue says. "I had a lot of older friends, people I hadn't kept in touch with, and people from that area reaching out and offering their congratulations. It really is amazing to see that so many people still follow what you're doing even if you're not aware of it. It's a nice feeling."
Hearing from the Ewing community reminds him of where his diving career began with the Blue Dolphins before he began to make waves on the state level, then national and finally now international level. It's been a long journey with his love for diving steadily increasing from that innocent start.
"For a while, it was just pure passion for diving and the love of jumping off the board and making your body do new things, or the feeling of joy when you take however long to learn a new skill and overcoming that fear," LoBue says. "Those are the sorts of things that keep you going."

You Are Known
Yesterday I was having one of those "I want everybody to like me" moments, and unfortunately some of it has crept over into today.I mean, who doesn't like to be liked? This unfortunately is one of my weaknesses. I want everyone to like me, and if someone doesn't (or I get it in my head that they don't) I begin trying to figure out just why they don't like me. I often create scenarios in my head that never took place, nor will ever take place. (I over analyze things sometimes.) Maybe I didn't smile enough. Maybe I gave them a look that I didn't realize I was giving. Maybe I didn't…….Oh, the "maybes" are many.
But today, as I sat on my bed this thought came to mind. "Those that know me, KNOW me. Those that think they know, don't know me. And those that don't know me, think they know me." Those in my circle of friends and my family, KNOW me. Those that just want to say they know me and might even wave at me in passing, are the ones that don't really know me. And then there are those who don't take the time to get to know me (for whatever reason) yet speak about me to others as if they know me, but in all actuality don't know me at all. We all have these different people in our lives. And we all would love to have everyone be the first kind of people, the ones that really know us. The real us. Not just the us that is displayed on the outside, but the us that is within.
The wonderful thing though, is that we have One who does know us, and REALLY knows us. God knows who we really are. He knows us better than we know ourselves. He knew us before we were even born. He knows the "us" from the inside out. And He wants us to know Him that intimately as well. So, the next time we encounter the people who fall into the category of not really knowing us and we get all in a tizzy; we can remind ourselves that God knows us. Even if no one else on the planet knew us, we would be known by the One who really matters. That should put a smile on our face! We aren't made to make everyone happy and have everyone like us. We were made to know Him and make Him known! And by doing that, we are known by Him!
Grace and Peace

Hello all,
First time poster here...I'm an Asian American now living in Asia (go figure) and I would like to fulfill my plan of visiting Russia to do a micro-version of following in Winston's footsteps (except the mugging part).
Since I'm gonna be short on time (maybe about a week or less) proximity is a factor for me. Thus, I'd like to venture to the Russian Far East - most likely Vladivostok and Khabarovsk.
Has anyone here been to either city or to the area in general? How would you compare it to Moscow, St Petersburg, Kiev in terms of standard of living, women, crime and personal safety, etc.?
I plan on documenting this trip and all the (hopefully) lovely lasses I meet. I look forward to any help or advice anyone can offer....thanks.

Today marks the first day back to school for teachers in Volusia county. Ashley would be starting back today, but she is not. If we are moving at any point during the next school year, and hopefully we will be (sooner rather than later), she did not want to leave a classroom full of five-year-old Kindergarten babies in the dust. She does miss the kids and may tutor some during the school year, but hooray for her staying home (like it will be when we have our own little darling).
I got a new phone! Here is what happened… I got up early last Monday to for a little run around the neighborhood. I told Ashley as I got out a bed that I was going and she said "okay, but take your phone so that you can call if it gets too hot and I can pick you up." So, I did. I put it in my sports bra cause my shorts didn't have pockets. So, I went running for about six miles, and it did get hot, but not too hot to finish the run. When I got back home I forgot completely that I had the phone in my bra for about 30 minutes. Then I remembered. I pulled the phone out to fine it dripping in sweat (sorry if people are grossed out by sweat but it happens). So, I dried it off and realized that something wasn't right. The sweat had gotten inside the phone and effectively shorted out the speaker and keyboard making it impossible to use. So, I had to get a new phone. I was going to be pricey because it wasn't my time to upgrade so I decided and with Ashley's approval of course, got a cool phone: the HTC Aria. It is my first smart-phone so I am mega impressed (except with how often you have to charge it). But, I can do just about anything with it, including update my blog, check my email, look up random stuff, play addicting games (like Alchemy o.m.g. I am obsessed), etc, etc, etc. Here are a few photos that I took of the pets with the FX camera application that I downloaded (thank you Tiffany for this suggestion).
Yesterday, I spent a ridiculous amount of time organizing our files, going over financial business, and getting our taxes in order. Taxes this upcoming year are going to be most complicated due to change in jobs, additional income, the potential moving, and our non recognized marriage. Also, if we are in Vermont there is the additional issue of state taxes, which I haven't even thought about yet. One outrageous thing that I learned while researching taxes for our special situation is that if Ashley stays home in the future and thus I am providing the moneys, I must be careful not to buy her expensive things, lest it be considered a gift, and not a shared property. If it is seen as a gift, it is taxable income! How retarded is that?

The second incarnation of my blog
It certainly wasn't an official initative, but I took Zac to a client appointment today. It was (sort of) their idea as the person I was visiting is an ex-colleague and had wanted to meet my dog!
I have every confidence that the beautiful Zac did NOT disappoint your client.
Aww love dogs!

Chia Wood a Boise ION's member has wrote a book recently that covers material that other ION's members could find interesting. Below is a
A local author Chia Wood claims that spiritual truth is as discoverable and verifiable as physical truth in the recent release, Spirituality Without Religion, A How-To Book. The spiritual truths are defined as the laws governing non-material things, such as harmony and love. Anyone can devise a scale for measuring inner peace, then experiment with spiritual practices and see which affect inner peace. Although the measurements are subjective, the comparison of these measures across time is valid within the individual.
In fact, this is how we run our lives. According to the author, the clergy once claimed a monopoly on scientific truth, much as they now claim a monopoly on spiritual truth, but spiritual truth is available to all people at all times. Anyone can experiment and discover that a life in which behavior betrays values is less satisfying than a life in which behavior does justice to values. By making our lives into laboratories, we can wrest spirituality from the same hands from which Galileo wrested Science.
The author, C. Riven Wood, has used the methods described over the course of three decades to transform herself from a suicidal teenager daunted by the telephone to a public speaker, helper, and guide to those desperate to change their lives. She has assisted rape victims, alcoholics and their families, and others committed to personal growth.

While some people foolishly say that Josef Ratzinger was a good pope in the Catholic Church, evidence to the contrary abounds! Josef Ratzinger, who claimed to be Pope Benedict XVI is nothing but a red eyed heretic who is never a Catholic and was NEVER pope!
We know this because a heretic can never become pope! Ratzinger denied Resurrection of Christ in his book "Jesus of Nazareth", He denied the resurrection of the Body, an article in the Apostles Creed, He denied that ONLY Christ can save and believes that Jews are saved without Christ, he eulogizes false religions like Islam and Hinduism thereby suggesting that these need not convert to the one true Church, He refused to believe in conversion to the Catholic Church by non-Catholics, he believes that it is possible for consecration can take place at Mass without the actual words of consecration, he rejected infant baptism, he rejected real presence of Christ in Blessed Sacrament calling it "a limiting of God".
Infact, Benedict XVI's heresies are too many that he is truly an apostate not just a heretic!
But the subject of this article is to draw attention to his latest shameless lies. As I wrote the other time, here:
showing that the Secret of Fatima released under anti-Pope John Paul II through Ratzinger and Bertone was a fake, evidences have emerged that indeed what was released back then in 2000 was a lie or at lest not the complete truth.
The web page One PeterFive (this is not and endorsement of 1Peter5) reported that a certain "Fr". Dollinger, a "priest" professor in his old age and who is a personal friend of Ratzinger revealed that Ratzinger told him that there is more to the Third Secret that was not revealed. This elicited an "I know it" response from Fatimatists world wide who have always believed that the Third Secrete of Fatima revel by the Vatican in 2000 was a fake.
As this new was sinking in, the Vatican responded and denied everything claiming that Benedict XVI himself has denied he ever told "Fr" Dollinger anything about Fatima Secrete still remaining. The Vatican called Dollinger statement a "complete fabrication"!
The Writer of the story, Dr. Maike Hickson, in One PeterFive placed a call to "Fr" Dollinger to confirm what he said earlier in the light of the response from the Vatican. Again, "Fr" Dollinger repeated himself insisting that Ratzinger told him that the secret was not completely revealed!
In the face of this claim and counter claim, who could be lying? The truth is Ratzinger is the liar here.
What "Fr" Dollinger said is not new. He had said it before telling the world that Ratzinger said that the Secret is still remaining. He said this many years ago when Benedict XVI himself was pontificating as the pope! Why didn't Vatican issue a denial statement then? Even "Fr". Paul Kramer, a known Fatima Advocate, reported the same in his article for the magazine, Fatima Crusader in 2009. Why didn't the Vatican deny it then?
Also Benedict XVI while travelling to Fatima in 2010 said that in the Third secrete there was a mention of the "passion of the Church" and this is gradually taking shape! This idea was not part of the so called secret revealed in 2000. This means that indeed there remains a part of the third secret not revealed!
Again while at Fatima, on May 13th 2010, the same Benedict XVI said "we would be mistaken to think that Fatima's prophetic mission is complete".
This means that indeed there is a secret remaining! We should remember that the secrete that was revealed by Ratzinger and Bertone under John Paul II suggested that the Secrete is about the 1981 shooting of John Paul II. If this is true, what does Benedict XVI mean by the above statement?
It simply means that Benedict XVI, apart from being an apostate, is a liar of the first degree!
First Our Lady will not come to Fatima to warn the world about the shooting of John Paul II in 1981 and said the secret should be revealed in 1960 so that the world will understand it better. This lie is known by the main propagators of Fatima worldwide.
Also, Ratzinger kept lying by suggesting that we will be mistaken if we thought the secret is complete. Yes. The secret is ongoing. But Ratinger did not reveal it making him a liar.
So, when Dollinger told One Peter Five about what Ratzinger told him personally and which was denied by Ratzinger, it shows again that Ratzinger is a liar and keep lying in his old age!
Ask yourself, how can a very old man who calls himself Benedict XVI be lying and remaining in his apostasy as he is apparently nearing his end?
This is what we do not know! Perhaps he has decided to die on the side of the devil instead of coming clean now by revealing the true secret and rejecting all his heresies publicly!
Those who keep calling him a Catholic should indeed be ashamed.

This week I have been doing so much related to educational technology. It has been week 1 of the 3D GameLab workshop; this has been a wonderfully intense experience thus far. Along with that I have been exploring subscribing to RSS feeds using Google Reader. This is a particularly helpful tool for organizing pages and web-sites worth following without having to go to each one individually. Below you can find a bundle of the teaching resource sites I have added this week to my Google Reader.
Google Bundle – Teaching Resources
This tech tool would certainly have use in the classroom environment. I can see students delving deeper into topics of study using RSS feeds to subscribe to blogs about historical findings, current event sites, National Geographic, sports news, or other topics of interest. Students could then use this to acquire weekly current events or happenings in their social studies class and report on it. I can see students where students would be excited to add their favorite sports team, fashion designer, or actor as part of their RSS feed subscriptions. It certainly would allow students to hone in on areas of interest.
I do see possible pitfalls with this as a resources. As a middle school teacher, not all students have an e-mail account in my school district. Which would mean that this wouldn't be able to be an option for all students. As a district, we are looking at using Google Apps for education. When that occurs then this could be an option for all students.

Last night I drove back to my home town to a funeral visitation for a friend of mine that had been my friend since Jr. high. She lost her daughter in a car accident. It seems the only time I ever go home is for funeral visitations but when you go back for those reason you reflect a lot on what life was , is, and what's coming. Then my daughter with her upper level questions how do you feel if you buried your kids first.? I said sweet girl I hope i never ever find out but I can't even imagine what that hell would be. I went to counseling as well yesterday and had a full 1.5 hrs of too much thinking and left with a lot more questions than answers. I'm trying to formulate how I want to talk about my counseling session to offer some advice or hope but I'm struggling with the thoughts right now.
I saw a man who coached me at 5 years old in Pee Wee football last night and after 25 years of not seeing him and catching up he said to me. The story never ends until you do. I just said yes sir I understand. I had no idea what in the hell he was talking about until about the other side of downtown Ft. Worth heading back to Denton. I realized I thought part of my story had ended a few years ago but that is still a part of me and always will be. No matter if I wish it away, pray it away, forgive it away its here. I tried to ignore it and it bite my butt. I guess my question is when does the story not jade you to life, people, situations. You can fake it till you make it but I'm talking about living and being real and transparent so you don't have to live in an internal jail cell.
I made this post on FB today:" I wish I could take away the pain from all of those I read on FB and walk with on a daily basis but I can't. I can pray and say something encouraging to someone because we have no idea the internal hell there going through. I had 50 people like it. I wonder how many read the post and said FU Tyler. Pray for me it never goes away. My story is always the same. We are the only ones that change the story but we don't believe we can so we don't. Some people get lucky enough if you want to call it that and try to make amends but then its to late. If the story never ends we actually know the outcome right now if we keep our life on the path its going. If you don't believe look at your parents you're a mirror image. If we know the story never ends and we can make one slight turn then what?
This maybe my worst ramble ever. Just my thoughts after counseling. Please though try to encourage people rather than tear them down. You have no idea what is going on behind that fake smile or fake life.

Mix of mad doctor, zombies and spy thriller in a comedy context (!) should work better than it does here. Performances are all over the map and the 'accepted' racism of the time period leaves an awful taste in the mouth as well. Strangely enough an Oscar nominee that year (score).

Look of the Day: Cupcake Princess Friday, May 9, 2008Posted by kittylamour in Make Up Looks.
Tags: colourful, look of the day, mineral, spring, tutorial
Spring/summer catwalks were filled with brightly coloured make-up looks. My personal favourite collection was John Galliano's, with a variety of looks I like to call 'Marie Antoinette meets Miss Haversham'. (Check out the looks on Style.com – http://www.style.com/fashionshows/collections/S2008RTW/detail/thumb/JNGALLNO )
In honour of Galliano's collection I have created the Cupcake Princess look.
A bit theatrical for everyday wear perhaps 🙂 but it could be easily toned down for both daytime and a night out, especially with the wig out of the equation…! Here's how to get the look:
*I try to mention a selection of products that are available in both the US and the UK so you can always find an alternative to use. Although a UK resident myself I do buy a lot of cosmetics from the US – check out my links to see where I shop*
The key to the look is a flawless, pale face. Skin was thoroughly cleansed and moisturised beforehand and the moisturiser allowed to sink in for 15 minutes before any more makeup was applied. I used MEMEME Perfecting Base Primer which has a slight iridescence to it, but there are loads on the market. Particularly oily
skin or skin with enlarged pores might want to try Benefit's Dr Feelgood or Pure Luxe Cometics' Eraser. If you already have great skin, a moisturiser with a slight shimmer like Superdrug's Vitamin E Illuminating Moisture Cream or Oil Of Olay have several whose names don't spring to mind right now!
After primer use foundation up to 1 shade lighter than your normal skintone (no lighter though, unless you want to look like a corpse!). The trick to this, and to foundation in general, is to match the colour to your NECK, not your face. Most people tend not to do this as they feel the face then ends up looking too pale and washed out. Well, I'm sorry to break it to you, but that's what blusher and bronzer are for! Better to match your neck and then add more colour where you need it than end up with a tell-tale tideline, but I'll be going through all that in my Foundation Masterclass…
For the eyes I used two palettes – LA Colours 5 Color Metallic Eyeshadow Palette – in Tease and Wildflower but any bright colours will do. I'd rate NYX's single or trio eyeshadows, Barry M Dazzle Dust, Sleek loose shadows. For this look I used pale pink over the whole eye area as a base, and added shading and countouring in the crease line and outer corner with shades of deeper pink and purple. I then lined the outer corner of the eye (upper and lower lashes) in purple, and the mid-section in turquoise. The inner corner of the eye was highlighted with a bright yellow-gold, making sure the colour was taken right into the hollow between the eye and the side of the nose. Drama was added with false eyelashes – mine are by Stargazer but many other companies do the exact same design including Elise. Just looked for 'feathered' or 'winged' lashes.
The lip look was created with 3 NYX Diamond Sparkle lipsticks – Velvet, Flower, and Orchid. Velvet was applied over the whole lip, Flower to the inner 2/3s, and Orchid right in the centre. Blend a little with a lipbrush to smudge any harsh edges, and you automatically get the cutesy rosebud look. Be careful if you already have small lips, however, as this look can make them look smaller. The best way to do this look is using a semi-sheer lipstick which will allow you to layer and blend more easily. Benefit's Silky Finish lipsticks have this kind of consistency, whilst Miss Sporty Twinkle Shine lipstick is a much cheaper alternative, but there are many more on the market.
To finish the look, use a rosey pink blusher such as NYX Mosaic Blusher in Rosey or NYC Mosaic Face Powder in Pink Cheep Glow to contour under the cheekbones, and a highlighter such as Benefit Highbeam or MEMEME Beat The Blues Highlighter in pink, on the cheekbones, browbone and cupid's bow.
What do you think?
Is the multi-coloured eye trend something you are likely to try out?

this looks so awesome! look forward to more looks from you!

There is something about an older man that seems attractive, maybe it goes back to those Neanderthal base instincts, the ones which say men choose women who look like they can bear children and women choose men who can protect them.

What Would You Do with an Extra Week of Time, Compliments of Nicolet Plastics
"Change is a way of life. It is an opportunity, not a threat," says Bob MacIntosh, CEO of Nicolet Plastics Inc., a small plastic-injection molder nestled in Northern Wisconsin's Nicolet Forest.
Openness to change enabled MacIntosh, along with key player CFO Joyce Warnacut, to seize new opportunities in a foundering economy. With employee cooperation and support, they have transformed Nicolet from a firm struggling to adapt to a changing economic landscape to an enterprise that has emerged thriving, with the financial metrics to prove it.
"In 2009, some industry trends in plastics reflected the trend of major multinational firms: increasingly moving production offshore to get away from rising costs at home," MacIntosh says.
Companies producing high-volume, minimally complex plastic-injection molded parts were able to reduce overall costs by capitalizing on the low wage rates of an abundant overseas labor force. But low- to moderate-volume plastics companies were unable to take advantage of the overseas shift, party because of shipping time and costs, and partly because offshore workers lacked the technical skills to create products as complex as those Nicolet was manufacturing.
"I knew our business was complex," he confirms. "We had hundreds of tools, hundreds of material and color combinations. We accepted practically ever order that came our way. We took every opportunity to build a tool, just to keep our guys busy. I sensed that if we could control our complexity, we would be unique in the marketplace."
Sales dropped by 36 percent in 2009, forcing deliberation about a change of direction. "We began to realize that in order to remain competitive in that environment, we'd have to exploit our strengths and turn weakness into opportunity," MacIntosh says.
Manufacturing complex injection-molded parts requires sophisticated scheduling practices, efficient material management and a skilled workforce. In hindsight, MacIntosh says, "Rather than focusing on keeping busy, we should have been evaluating our equipment and ERP system; our labor, training, and workforce-development practices."
"And we should have been paying closer attention to our customer base," he adds. "It had not occurred to us that we maybe shouldn't try to be all things to all people. We needed to be more selective, deciding on our ideal market, and then working hard to better serve a smaller number of customers."
MacIntosh began searching for manufacturing philosophies that supported the needs of Nicolet's low-volume, high-mix manufacturing niche.

Today has turned into a downright beautiful day in Virginia. The dogs and I have been a bit lazy this weekend, so I decided to take them on a walk.
Walking my dogs is not something I do on a regular basis. I have no excuse other than laziness on my part. These days, I try to make an extra effort – Josie does love her walks, even if she only loves the first 5 minutes. And I'm pretty sure Bear could walk all day.
In the past, I used to get frustrated walking them. Don't get me wrong, they are really easy to walk. They don't pull, they don't have to sniff every little twig they come across, they just walk with me. However, Josie tends to fall behind. She starts out really strong and then quickly fades. Even going at a snails pace, I would practically be dragging her home as she lagged behind as far as the six foot leash would stretch. I'm sure it looked funny, with Bear keeping up and sometimes creeping ahead of me by a foot.
At the time, I thought she was lazy. Lazy dog would didn't want to walk. Sheesh! Why did she even beg to go on a walk if she was too lazy to make it all the way home?
Then I found out – arthritis. I felt horrible. She wasn't lazy – she was in pain. It all made sense.
The vet recommends still walking – just slow, short walks. This I can do.
These days when I take the dogs for a walk – it is a coordinated effort since they both walk at different paces and for different lengths of time. First, Bear and I go out and walk a good mile before making our way back to pick up Josie. By then, Bear is starting to slow down. When Josie joins us, she's full of energy and practically runs next to me for the first tenth of a mile. I try and slow her down – tell her to take her time – no need to run. But she insists. She soon peters out and drags her feet for the rest of the walk – which at that point is usually a very slow walk back home.
I don't mind the slow walk back home. It gives me more time walking my dogs on a beautiful day.

The purpose of this study was to identify the number and characteristics of latent (unobservable) language ability groups in an unclassified sample of predominantly Spanish-speaking children. An unclassified sample of 431 predominantly Spanish-speaking 5–7 year olds learning English participated in the study. The groups were identified based on (a) language sample analyses (semantic, grammatical, and sentence-length measures); (b) language processing tasks (phonological working memory and processing speed measures); and (c) non-verbal cognitive abilities based on a standardized measure. All tasks were administered in Spanish. Latent profile analysis was used to examine the number and nature of distinct language ability groups in the unclassified sample. The authors reported results indicated that a three-group model best represented the data, characterized by low grammaticality in one group, low phonological working memory in another group, and average skills in a third group. The authors concluded that classifying children into two groups, those with and without language impairment, may lead to misidentification of language impairment.

Discovery Process in Dedham OUI Cases
The discovery process in Dedham OUI cases is mandated by statute. The Commonwealth or the District Attorney's Office is required to provide any information, exculpatory or inculpatory, to the defendant.
This means any 911 tapes, any statements by witnesses, any reports made by police officers, or booking videos. They are required to provide that to credible defense counsel. Anything that they intend to use at trial must be provided.Initiating the Discovery Process
Attorneys often begin the discovery process in Dedham OUI cases, as soon as they enter into the case. Typically, the Commonwealth will request a pretrial date and on that date they provide whatever discovery they have.
Sometimes the District Attorney's office will request a discovery in compliance date, which is a date that comes after the pretrial. If they have been unable to gather all of the evidence, they ask for this additional date to get all that together to provide to defense counsel.Requirements to Filing Discovery
The discovery must be provided by the Commonwealth. However, the defense attorney can seek out discovery in any way that it finds appropriate. A person can request additional reports from a police department if they have reason to believe they exist.
A defense attorney can file a rule 17 motion if there are documents such as cell phone records or medical records of someone involved that are not easily procured without an order from the court. Defense attorneys can do that as well.
As long as the order is allowed by the judge, they can subpoena either medical records from another party that was involved or surveillance video. That can all be done through a motion to the court. As part of the discovery process in Dedham OUI cases, a defense attorney can request witness information, medical records from the accused.How Law Enforcement Handles the Discovery Process
Typically, Dedham law enforcement will provide the discovery to the District Attorney's office rather than providing it directly to defense counsel. Some evidence that discoverable materials might include are:
- Police reports
- Witness Statements
- Photographs
- 911 calls
- Booking videos
- Distant medical records
- Surveillance videos
Most of the time, the original report will be provided to the court and to the District Attorney's Office and then upon request, they will provide additional discovery, such as the booking video or the 911 call. At that point, the District Attorney will provide it to the defense counsel.How Can a Request for Discovery be Submitted?
If the defense thinks there is possible evidence could be destroyed, that request should be made through the courts so that the Police Department is on notice and ordered by the court about whatever evidence needs to be preserved. Other types of evidence that are more routine can be requested to the government.
The government makes most of the requests. They reach out to the police department to ensure that evidence is provided in a timely way, and then they provide it to defense counsel.Defining the Role of a Subpoena in Court
A subpoena is a court order either ordering a person to appear in court or ordering the documents to be provided to the court. There are two really common circumstances in which a subpoena is used. The first is subpoenaing witnesses.
If there is a witness who might not appear on their own, they could be sent a subpoena to ensure their appearance at court. The other circumstance is a subpoena for records, which can be done for surveillance tapes that could show the area where the person was pulled over or where they performed the field sobriety test, and it can be used for medical records as well.
It is important to hire a lawyer who knows the discovery process in Dedham OUI cases and how to present that information in court. If the evidence is a booking video, often those can be really helpful for a defendant in an OUI case.

Smoked Baked Beans
May 12, 2013 § Leave a comment
I found a recipe on the internet that looked like a good start. I modified it since I was going to add it to the smoker.
—– Beans
1 pound dried navy beans
1 tbsp kosher salt
—– Other Ingredients
1 Large Onion diced
1/2 pound sliced bacon cut into about 1/2 inch pieces
1 quart water
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup molasses
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons vinegar
1 tablespoons cajun spice (The one I make has not salt)
—– Cooking the beans
Cover the beans by about 2 inches of water and bring to a boil. Add the kosher salt, reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, cover and let sit overnight.
The next day, drain the beans, cover with water, add about 1/2 tablespoon of salt and simmer the beans until until almost done (add water to pot as required). Your beans are firm but on the way to cooked through. Once you add the acid, they will not get any softer.=
—– Making the baked beans
line the bottom of you aluminum pan with 1/3 of the onions
add 1/4 bacon chunks
add 1/3 the beans
add another layer of onions
add another layer of bacon
add another layer of 1/3 beans
add another layer of onions
add another layer of bacon
add last of the beans and top with the last of the bacon
Put the sugar, molasses, ketchup/bbq sauce and a 225Ml water in 1 ltr (4 cup) measure glass in the microwave, bring to a boil and stir well
Pour this over the beans if the beans aren't covered add water until just over the top by 1cm or so.
Stick in your BBQ for a minimum of 3 hours at 225- 275, check every hour for liquid. At hour 2 give it a stir just to turn the flavours over. Don't over stir and break up the beans.
I put the beans in a 225 degree oven at about 9:00 AM. I will move them into the smoker when I start the meat. This will have them up to temperature so the smoker will not have to do that work.
There was enough liquid so I put them in the oven uncovered. They will go on the bottom of the smoker so all the dripping will fall into the beans.
I had them in the smoker for about 2 hours and then back in the oven for another three. All in all they were cooking for about 8 hours.
The beans turned out quite good. The had a nice smoky flavor and spice. This recipe is a keeper.
