Mindfulness...it's quite the buzzword lately, with it being talked about as a way of dealing with everything from trying to lose weight to addiction recovery. The subject of mindfulness has come up in a lot of addiction Twitter chats I've been a part of lately and I will admit that I've struggled with the concept. What exactly does mindfulness mean?
I did a Google search and the definition that caught my eye was: "a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique." - Google search engine
As someone who likes to plan ahead as much as possible, the idea of focusing on the present moment does not always sit well with me; I don't always appreciate the moment I'm in because I am trying to stay at least one step ahead. While I don't necessarily think this is always a bad thing in general, it is a problem when it comes to my recovery.
I've written before about going back to Al-Anon after 14 years, and I am proud to say that I now have 2 months in the program. Al-Anon has taught me a lot about myself in these two short months and one of the things I've learned is that I am a bit of a control freak. I think this goes back to the fact that I had to take care of everything while my husband was in active addiction, so I never really had time to enjoy the moment. I was busy working to make sure that our daughter was taken care of and that her life and routine was as normal as possible so the absence of her father wouldn't be as glaring, but I also think that I didn't want to be in the moment, because at the time the moment was very difficult for me.
Fast forward to today and I'm being told that mindfulness or "living in the moment" is very important when it comes to recovery. In my mind I'm thinking "why, I've been doing just fine up to this point so I don't need to change now." Classic addiction thinking right? Just because I'm not an addict, I am the spouse and sibling of addicts and it is very easy to pick up some of their ways of thinking.
I had to get honest and ask myself if I was really fine, why was I going to Al-Anon? Obviously something was off or I wouldn't feel the need to attend meetings and it was at that point that I started to really pay attention to the concept of mindfulness. As if to drive the point home even further, mindfulness was the topic of one of our recent meetings; okay Higher Power, I get it :)
Although I am still finding my way in terms of fully grasping and practicing mindfulness, I am starting to understand why it's so important when it comes to recovery. Thinking about how things were rather than how they are now, is robbing myself of the joy of how good things are at the moment. The past is done and over with, and dwelling on it will not change anything; all it will do is bring up bad memories and hard feelings and I don't want to do that to myself or my husband.
It was a very hard, very long journey to get to where we are now, and where we are now is happy! My husband and I are in a healthy, strong, loving relationship; our daughter is closer than she's ever been to her father, happy and doing well. My husband has 14 years of sobriety, went back to school and got his degree and recently celebrated a year of working in the field as a drug & alcohol counselor. I am finally able to address my need of dealing with the issues of his addiction by attending Al-Anon meetings and I can honestly say that it is one of the best things I have ever done for myself.
Right now the moment is pretty darn good and I intend to be mindful and cherish every minute!

A funny thing happens with time. When you start to accumulate too much of it: whether it be in a job, a relationship or in recovery, you start to get comfortable. Your routine starts to slip and you start taking things for granted. It's only natural, and it's happened to all of us at some point; as a matter of fact this happened recently between me and my husband, which led to a very interesting conversation the other day.
Whenever you've been in any situation for a long time, in this case a relationship, you start to take things for granted and just assume that everything is fine. My husband and I have known each other for 27 years; we met at a very young age and basically grew up together. Though we weren't together that entire time (he spent 11 years in active addiction) we've been together as a family and he has been clean and sober for the last 14 years.
When you've been with someone that long, you tend to develop a shorthand when it comes to communication because you know each other so well. You can just look at each other and know exactly what the other person is thinking. It's a wonderful feeling to be so connected to someone that you don't even need words, but there's a danger in that as well.
Communication is needed in all aspects of life; and when it comes to relationships, it is vital. When you're in a relationship with a person in recovery, it's essential! So that brings me to the conversation I had with my husband the other day…
My husband went back to school, got his degree and recently celebrated his first year of working in the field as a drug & alcohol counselor. It is a very demanding, stressful job that doesn't pay a lot and he absolutely loves it. It is his way of paying back the gift of recovery and honestly, it's what he was meant to do. If you can't tell, I am very proud of him!
Because his job is so demanding and emotionally draining at times, there are occasions when he will come home and just need some time to decompress and then he will be fine. Lately, the amount of time that he needs to decompress has been getting longer and frankly I was starting to feel a bit ignored.
Usually I would talk to him about this, but I've been in my feelings a bit lately (my issues, not his) and instead of saying something, I've been quiet and letting the resentment build. Finally it came to a head and I sent him a text while he was at work which basically said 'I don't know what your problem is, but you need to get it together!'
When he got home, he told me that when he got the text, he wanted to respond but couldn't and that he thought everything was fine and didn't know what the text was about. In his mind he's thinking 'what did I do now?' and was thinking I should be thankful that we have such a great relationship after all we've been through, so what exactly was my problem.
I will admit when he said that line about being thankful, I looked at him like he had two heads, but in actuality he was right. We have been through the depths of hell together with his addiction and we have been able to come out the other side stronger than ever, with a real respect for what the other has been through to get to where we are today. So what exactly was my problem??
My problem was rather than communicating my feelings about being ignored, I let them build up to the point where I started to feel resentful. I expected my husband to read my mind and fix the situation when he didn't even know there was a problem! For his part, he just assumed everything was okay even when he knew I was being quieter than usual and instead of asking if I was okay, he just let it go.
The bottom line is we both made assumptions that we shouldn't have because we are so comfortable with each other and didn't communicate. All it took was a 20 minute conversation to smooth things over and see where we were both wrong and come up with a simple solution, which we have and things are much better.
This isn't the first, nor will it be the last incident like this because I can be stubborn (smile) but I've learned that communicating my feelings and/or problems with my husband will go a long way to ensuring that any future incidents are few and far between!

Sound familiar? If you're the family member of an addict/alcoholic it will…
I can't tell you how many times either myself, my parents, or my sisters have said any of the above and more to my sister, who is a former addict with 10 years of recovery or my brother, who was an alcoholic and died from the disease. Each time we said it, we meant it and each time without fail, we backed down... why?
I'm going to speak for all of us and say that whatever we did or didn't do, it was always done from a place of love.
My sister suffered from her addiction for many years, and would steal from whoever and wherever she could to feed her habit. Not only had she been arrested many times for shoplifting, but in some cases she would put herself in great danger by stealing from the wrong person. I can't tell you how many times my sister would come to my parents, especially my father, crying saying that she needed money for food or to pay a bill, and in order to make sure she was okay, my parents would give her money. My parents knew exactly what she was going to do with that money but they still gave it to her.
My brother was actually a high functioning alcoholic, but there were times when he would have to borrow to pay his rent or bills. He would rarely take money from my parents, but he did borrow from me and my sisters on occasion, and while he usually paid us back, sometimes he didn't and we never pressed the issue.
We saw our sister, brother, child in need and did what we could to help them; what we didn't know at the time was that we were actually 'enabling' them to continue in their addiction. Knowing what I know now about addiction and enabling behavior, I can look back and see very clearly what we were doing wrong, but at the time, we were just trying to deal with the situation the best way we knew how.
Nobody ever told us that our desire to help was actually driven by our own anxiety, guilt and shame to save my brother and sister from their predicament and spare them from the immediate consequences of their actions. Truth be told, I think we were trying to meet a need of our own, rather than what they needed, and we didn't even realize it at the time.
Without the knowledge, understanding and tools needed back then to handle the situation, we made so many mistakes that not only hurt them, but ourselves as well. You see by constantly coming 'to the rescue', we didn't allow my brother and sister to learn how to correct their own mistakes. They knew one of us would always be there to save them, so there was never a need for them to learn how to save themselves. There was no pressure for them to get it together and as a result, their addiction got worse. Our enabling behavior became so ingrained that we were always on alert waiting for that phone call either asking for help or telling us they were dead; still we swore we would never help them again. The addiction had taken hold of us as well and we felt compelled to help.
The result of all this enabling behavior had devastating results. I can't speak for my sisters or my parents, but for me it destroyed the extremely close relationship I had with my siblings, and led to a lot of resentment and mistrust that has only recently begun to get better with my sister. My brother moved out of state and I didn't talk to him much because each time I did, he was drunk and as a result, I found out too late that he was in the ICU and died before any of us had a chance to see him. I will never forgive myself for not being there to say goodbye; he was my only brother and the oldest and I miss him every day.
For family members who have a loved one suffering from addiction or alcoholism, I beg you to find out everything you can about the disease and the issue of enabling. Not only will it give you a greater understanding and the tools you need to deal with the addicted love one, it will help you as well, because addiction is a family disease and we would all benefit from the ability of knowing how to deal with it.

In 2001 I went to my first Al-Anon meeting and didn't go back until May 23, 2015. What happened? Why the long break? Let me explain…
14 years ago, my husband had just finished an intensive 6 month inpatient stay in rehab to battle an alcohol and drug addiction that kept him away from our family for years. He finally realized that he was ready to change, stop drinking and using, and get help.
When he left rehab, he had all the tools he needed to deal with his new found sobriety and I had none. He was staying with his mom, working, going to every meeting he could, had a sponsor and was working his program. I didn't know how to deal with this new man and make no mistake he was a new man: he was alcohol and drug free for the first time since I had met him at the age of 17, and I had absolutely no idea what to do!
So it was suggested, I forget by who, that I check out Al-Anon and see about attending some meetings. I ordered the One Day At A Time and How Al-Anon Works books and started reading. After getting a quarter of the way through the books I decided I was ready to attend my first meeting, so I found one nearby and went.
Now I will admit that I was very apprehensive and nervous about attending my first Al-Anon meeting. By nature I am a private person and am known in my family as the 'strong one', so going to a meeting where I would have to talk about an extremely difficult and personal matter and admit that I needed help dealing with it was incredibly hard for me. Maybe that colored my experience, maybe not, but that first meeting was a complete and total disaster.
When I got to the meeting place, in this case a senior living facility, I couldn't find where the meeting room was so I was wandering around the building a bit. Then when I get in the room, there were only a few of us there, so I was asked to help set up the refreshments. Okay...I don't know anybody here, I haven't had a chance to introduce myself or have others introduce themselves to me and I'm being asked to make coffee, which by the way I don't know how to do because I don't drink it. Go with the flow Nay, I tell myself…
So now refreshments are set up, people grab their coffee and take a seat so the meeting can start. They say the Serenity Prayer, we go around the room and introduce ourselves and they go right into the topic; I guess it was a topic meeting, I really have no idea because nothing was explained. Again I tell myself, go with the flow…
The meeting is going and it's just one sad story after another. People are saying how miserable they are and how horrible their lives are because of the alcoholic in their lives. It is all I can do to not shout out "shut up and stop feeling so sorry for yourselves, suck it up and just deal with it, I did"! Honestly back then I was just so angry and resentful, I didn't want to hear what sounded to me like a bunch of people whining about their problems. At the break, I didn't say anything to anyone; I left and vowed to never go back and I didn't for 14 years.
Fast forward to May, 2015. Our family has been back together and thriving after a VERY rough start. My husband now has 14 years of sobriety, has gone back to school and gotten his degree, and now works in the field as a drug and alcohol counselor to pay back the gift of sobriety. You would think all is well right? Yes, but…
Recently things have started bubbling up under the surface for me, and I didn't even realize it until my husband and I had several discussions and I finally said I think I need to go back to Al-Anon and he agreed. It was finally my time to work on me after all those years of worrying and dealing with his addiction and taking care of our daughter on my own. It was now MY turn!
I went online and found an Al-Anon meeting in my area and went. The first meeting was okay...it was a large meeting and everyone seemed nice enough. I listened as they went over the structure of the meeting and the steps, which I appreciated since they didn't do that before and I had a much better understanding of how the meeting was supposed to work. During the break no one came up and introduced themselves to me, but then again I didn't introduce myself to anyone either. I stayed for the whole meeting and after, the GR (group representative) came and introduced herself to me, asked if I was new, talked to me for a bit and gave me some literature. I decided this was way better than my first meeting and told myself I would come back next week.
The next week came and I didn't feel comfortable from the moment I came in and sat down. I sat in almost the exact same spot next to the same person from the first meeting, and for some reason I just felt extremely uncomfortable. At the break, the people sitting on either side of me turned to the people sitting next to them and started talking; no one said anything to me: not hello, NOTHING. I felt extremely uncomfortable and I just did not want to be there. I knew I wouldn't last the whole meeting and sure enough I ended up getting up and walking out before the meeting was over and again vowed to never come back.
I talked to my husband about it and he told me not to give up and to try another meeting. I went online, found another one and I am so happy that I listened to him because I have found my home. I've attended two meetings at the new location now and from the moment I walked in, I felt so at ease and welcome that I shared at both meetings! It feels so comfortable here and the people are so open and engaging that it feels like I've known them for years. I feel very safe opening up in these rooms and for someone like me, sharing information like this, that is not an easy thing. Funny thing is, some people from the meeting that I left are in this meeting as well, so maybe I'm just not ready for a large meeting right now. This meeting is everything I could want and need in an Al-Anon meeting; I am so thankful that they have accepted me with open arms and I definitely plan to keep coming back!
For anyone that may be on the fence about Al-Anon or may have had a bad experience, I urge you to give it another chance like I did. It is so important to focus on YOUR recovery and self-care and Al-Anon can help, you just have to find the right meeting because it works if you work it; so keep coming back!

Centenary Celebrates the Life of Trappist Monk Wednesday, Dec. 10
Thomas Merton
SHREVEPORT, La.—Centenary College's Religious Studies Department and Christian Leadership Center, in partnership with Shreveport's All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church, will present "Thomas Merton: An Interfaith Celebration of His Life" Wednesday, Dec. 10, in the Kilpatrick Auditorium, located in the Smith Building on the Centenary campus.
The program commemorates the 40th anniversary of Merton's death. Dr. Peter Huff, T. L. James Associate Professor of Religious Studies, calls the event "a multi-faith tribute to the enduring relevance of Merton's spiritual legacy."
The program begins with a brown-bag luncheon discussion on "Mindfulness Meditation and Centering Prayer" from 11:30 a.m. until 1 p.m. and features local meditation teachers Larry Androes, Alan Prater, and Ben Riggs.
The program continues later that evening with a 7 p.m. showing of Morgan Atkinson's documentary film "Soul Searching: The Journey of Thomas Merton," followed by a panel discussion led by Dr. Huff and members of the area interfaith community: Buddy Landry, Deshae Lott, and Sr. Anna Grace Madden.
Author of the classic autobiography The Seven Storey Mountain, Trappist monk Thomas Merton (1915-1968) inaugurated a contemplative revival in international Christianity and sparked a revolution in Christian attitudes toward materialism, racism, and war. A pioneer in interfaith dialogue, he died in Bangkok, Thailand, on a pilgrimage through Asia.
The program is free and open to the public. For more information contact Dr. Huff at 318.869.5049 or email.

BEIJING — Jackie Chan crimer "Shinjuku Incident" has secured theatrical distribution in the U.S. and will open Feb. 5, followed by a Sony Home Entertainment DVD release on May 25.
Pic's producers have partnered with Barking Cow Distribution to release the film in Chinese with English subtitles on 20 screens in 10 U.S. markets with large Chinese communities.
The DVD will offer a choice of either Chinese or English-language and subtitles.
In the pic, which was exec produced by Chan and helmed by Derek Yee, Chan plays an illegal Chinese immigrant trying to survive on the gangster-run streets of Tokyo in the 1990s. Pic also features Daniel Wu, Xu Jinglei and Fan Bingbing.
Pic was nixed by censors in mainland China for its violence and depiction of malcontent mainlanders fleeing to Japan.

New Zealand director Sir Peter Jackson's film company has acknowledged several animals died while it was making the Hobbit movies, including two horses and a steer in what it called "unfortunate accidents".
The company is being criticised by the international animal rights organisation PETA, which claims 27 animals died because of mistreatment over the course of the two-year production.
A Wingnut films spokesperson Matt Dravitzki says any animal that died, did so off-set at a training farm in the North Island.
He disputes PETA's claim of 27 fatalities but says there were several animal deaths, including two horses which fell over a bank and had to be euthanised because their injuries could not be treated.
The American Humane Association, which monitors the welfare of animals on movie sets, visited the farm following the deaths and made safety recommendations.
Mr Dravitzki says significant upgrades have been made to animal houses and fencing on the property.
He says the production company strongly rejects the claims any deaths were due to mistreatment and is speaking with the animal wranglers who worked on the films.
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is the first film of Sir Peter's latest trilogy based on J R R Tolkien's books and opens on 28 November.

Typical survey analysis services
Analysis only package
An organization sends details of a questionnaire.
Data entry is handled by its in-house or contracted clerical staff, for which I design a spreadsheet validated for their input.
After receiving the results, I write an interim report some days in. If this suits the commissioners, more in-depth analysis is conducted, followed by the final report.
Reports are written to fit the context of the survey, using clear charts and plain English. Statistical niceties are only included where they make sense.
As well as the report, you receive additional files with the collated raw data and summary data with related charts.
Full survey service
In collaboration with expert consultants within your field, your organization's requirements are ascertained, and the entire process is managed, including questionnaire design, statistical and qualitative analysis and a written report.
Bespoke services
In general, most organizations have specific requirements that fit somewhere in between the above, or require additional services. I do not charge extra for 'unusual'; my fees are based on the amount of time that is likely to be taken, the level of expertise involved and actual operating costs.

Occasionally, we will drift into afternoon programming. Such is the case with the syndicated game show, Sports Challenge, which originally aired from 1971-79. Sportscaster Dick Enberg, currently the play-by-play voice of the San Diego Padres, was calling games for the Los Angeles (now St. Louis) Rams & California Angels (now the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim) when he was hired by independent producer Gerry Gross to emcee this series. TheWhammy83 uploaded this sample clip, which matched a trio of legendary jockeys, including Bill Shoemaker, who made the rounds of game shows back in those days, vs. three members of the Brooklyn Dodgers.
Current Jeopardy! announcer Johnny Gilbert handled those duties on Challenge, which gives you an idea of how long he's been in the game show business. Producer Gerry Gross also helmed the PBS series, The Way It Was, which, along with Challenge, eventually landed in ESPN's vaults, and periodically airs on ESPN Classic.
Dick Enberg would later host Baffle for NBC & Heatter-Quigley, and has called NFL games, college basketball, & tennis for NBC & CBS over the years.
Rating: A.

Lindsay Lohan: Facebook Sucks!!!
Lindsay Lohan has taken to her MySpace Celebrity page to complain about another social network — Facebook!
In an entry titled "Upset with Facebook", Lindsay writes, "Okay, so I love MySpace, because it is secure, and the people at MySpace don't disable your account because they think that you are a fake you… Facebook allows a lot of posers, I thought maybe they would figure out that the posers of me, (and I am sure others on Facebook) were in fact posers by looking into their accounts, or sending emails to the people that they believed to be 'posers' which ask questions. What those questions may be.. I don't know. Which is why I don't run an interactive web site. On that note, this is what happened to me earlier today… I signed onto Facebook with my new password because someone keeps hacking into my account, and when I typed my password and 'log in' name in, a red sentence came up saying..
Account Disabled. Your account has been disabled by an administrator. If you have any questions or concerns, you can visit our FAQ page here.
"Wow! I was in shock. I clicked on the link that they told me to click on and then to another link that said: my account may of been disabled by mistake. once I got to that it gave a note saying why it was disabled which stated the note saying that it was disabled because they believe that I was a fake of myself. Genius. Here I am loving Facebook (as well as myspace-hehe) but going on Facebook to talk to some of my friends and they are thinking that I AM THE 'FAKE' OF MYSELF!!! Hahahahahaha.. at first I laughed, and then I got angry. Angry because, with ALL the people that PRETEND to be me on facebook, they decide to say I AM THE FAKE- of myself. All I can think is, WHO is running this site? and how can they just "disable" my account without first, sending me a warning notice, or AT LEAST asking me some account verification questions. here they are re-designing the look on the site when they should be setting up a more secure way of allowing people to set up an account. I wasn't even under my name, I had a fake name on my account because, obviously I didn't want everyone on Facebook to know it was me.
Maybe I am just venting, but I am also writing this blog in hopes that the people at Facebook will un-disable my account and allow me to sign in the EXACT same way it was, same friends, same emails, same 'pets' and so on.
Phew! I'm glad I got that off my chest, I needed to let it out somewhere, and MySpace has always been the best place for me to do it, especially if I hope for something to change….
love love love ,
Lindsay Dee ;)
Oy vey! rumors.. Just to clear this up.. Because I have been getting a lot of emails asking me this one question. Samantha Ronson and Lindsay Lohan (me) are NOT breaking up. :) xxLL"

South Carolina tight end Jerell Adams not likely to start Thursday
Two South Carolina wideouts are already out for the season, and senior tight end Jerell Adams will also likely be missing from the South Carolina starting lineup during Thursday night's season opener against North Carolina.
Adams (hamstring) did not practice for the third straight day on Monday, and coach Steve Spurrier doubts that Adams will start against North Carolina, TheState.com's David Cloninger reports.
There's some room for optimism, though; the senior has not been ruled out of the game, and he posted positive messages on Instagram over the weekend indicating he's excited to take the field.
If the Pinewood S.C., native can't go, Spurrier has three primary candidates to take Adams' reps: true freshmen Hayden Hurst and Kyle Markway, and redshirt freshman K.C. Crosby.
This is an untimely ailment for Adams, who is supposed to step into a prominent role this season after catching only 38 passes in his first three years as a Gamecock.
"I haven't got a lot of playing time," he told GreenvilleOnline.com's Richard Breen earlier this month. "I understand. I had older guys in front of me that had been doing what I was doing, so I just waited my time."
Spurrier has been one of his loudest supporters.
"We keep thinking he's going to bust out and really have a big year," Spurrier told Breen. "He should this year. Jerell will get a lot of opportunities, and hopefully he'll have a big year."
USC's air attack will already be missing receivers Shaq Davidson (knee) and Jerad Washington (left leg), who are both out for the season.
— By Alex M. Smith, Special for The Atlanta Journal-Consitution

Trupanion Goes to CityDog Magazine's Mutt Mixer!
Last night, a few of us from Trupanion had the pleasure of attending an event put on by CityDog Magazine! It was a fun, social event at the W Hotel to which we were allowed to bring our dogs.
We got to meet lots of dogs and dog-loving people! We even met a couple of dogs that were wearing Trupanion tags, including this French Bulldog, George.
They handed out appetizers for the humans and dog bone-shaped cookies for the dogs.
The room was packed with dogs that were all well-socialized, so there was lots of sniffing, pawing, and leash tangling. There were a few minor mishaps including a dog that almost marked a lady's legs! Fortunately the owner caught him in time before anything happened.
We mingled and had a great night! See our pictures!

I have posted before on the dangers of overpricing your home. Not only will you miss prospective buyers by overpricing your home, but you will affect how long your home will remain on the market and what the eventual selling price will be.
Activity versus Timing
Timing is extremely important in the real estate market. A property attracts the most interest and excitement from the real estate community and potential buyers when it is first listed. therefore, it has the highest chance of a sale when it is new on the market. Setting a realistic price from the beginning will help take advantage of this initial period, and increase the chance of a timely sale.
An experienced agent who knows the market and the marketing process can help you determine the market value of your home. Thereby giving you the best chance of quickly and smoothly selling your home.
Timing versus Selling Price
When a home is overpriced at the start, it misses what can be the most critical time period in selling a home the first weeks after it's listed. Once this period is passed and little traffic is generated at the initial price level, it becomes necessary to seek a lower listing price. Depending on market conditions this cycle may repeat several times before a sale is made, resulting in an eventual sale price that is well below the initial listing price and possibly lower than the market value of your home.
Determining Your Home's Market Value
A comprehensive market analysis is essential to determine the value of residential property. Location and characteristics of the property are the key elements in determining value, therefore the basis for valuation is comparing similar properties in your area. The market analysis takes into account the amount received from recent sales of comparable properties and the quantity and quality of comparable properties currently on the market. The desired end result, of course, is to find a price that will attract a willing and able buyer in a reasonable time.
Once the value of your home has been determined, you can decide on an offering price that will achieve your goals. Generally, the price should not exceed the value by more than 5% or potential buyers may not even make offers.
Are you interested to know what your home is worth in this market? Please contact me for your complimentary market analysis.

You aren't alone; millions of people look at their lives the same way you do. Down inside, they know God exists; they may even realize that someday they'll have to face him. And yet they don't want anything to do with him right now.
Why is this? One reason is because they believe that living without God is a lot more exciting than living with God. But it simply isn't true! Eventually, a life of self-indulgence will catch up with you, resulting in boredom and heartache and even self-destruction. But God promises us a far better path, and nothing is more exciting than knowing God and discovering his plan for our lives. I often think of Jesus' words: "I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10).
But people don't turn to God for another reason: They hope they can do it later. After all, they think, won't God forgive me and let me into heaven even if I only turn to him at the last minute? Yes, he will, but how to do know you'll actually turn to him? The longer you resist God, the more calloused your heart will become — and the less likely you'll be to turn to him. And life is uncertain; death could strike before you have the opportunity.
Don't gamble with your soul; don't resist God any longer. God loves you, and he knows what's best for you. By faith turn your life over to Jesus Christ — beginning today.

Working exclusively in the app Paper by FiftyThree, Theo is entering his abstract period.
Inspired by Andrew's rediscovery of the thoroughly excellent archaic word "merlimewes", and taking a friend's suggestion to incorporate into a limerick with a rhyme on "curlicues", I present the following:
There once was a lady from Boston,
a city she often got lost in.
She made so many merlimewes
it put her hair in curlicues,
so none stopped for the walk she crossed in!
What, I'm an engineer, not a poet. Points for effort, right? Bonus points for pedestrian-squishing?
And yes, I do take requests.

Website Design
Over the years we have developed a repeatable, efficient process for the development of websites. Website development projects for small to medium sized websites are usually completed in one iteration in the timeframe of a few day to one month. Large and complex website development projects can take several months. The develop process we employ involves considerable interaction and feedback with the client throughout the project.
The website development process can be separated into 7 key overlapping phases:
It is important to note the UI design is determined about half-way through the project. This helps ensure the design is driven by the functionality and business need instead of the other way around. Every project is unique. The website development process will be modified to meet individual goals of each project.
Now why would these companies advertise web design and development so cheaply when according to them, you can build your website in minutes and obtain professional results. Why would you ever need a professional web design and development company if it truly was that easy? Well, there is good reason why these companies make these claims. They want to entice you to design your "professional looking" website with their tools so you will be locked in with their hosting services.
Here is what they do
tell you:
You need some knowledge or experience with an HTML editing tool to be able to use the design tools they provide
You need some knowledge of how scripting languages function such as Java or Visual Basic to create cool features
You cannot customize their website template unless you upgrade to their business or professional web package
Additional web pages might cost as much as $99.00 for each additional page
Advertised special hosting prices are usually valid for a limited time, and the hosting price will go up significantly in the future.
You do
own the code and cannot take the code.
These are just a few of the tricks these internet companies use to entice you to use their web design tools and hosting services.

Senate backs $15M of aid after Joplin tornado By Associated Press • Apr 18, 2013 Missouri senators have endorsed a plan that could provide $15 million to Joplin to rebuild street curbs and gutters that were damaged as a result of the 2011 tornado. The bill given initial approval Wednesday would fund disaster recovery projects by redirecting money from other areas of state government.

'Sad Keanu' meme made into hilarious new toy
For anyone who wishes that they could have a sad Keanu Reeves permanently sit in their kitchen, today is your day. The 'Sad Keanu' meme, which exploded over the Internet in 2010 when a Splash News photographer snapped a pic of a downtrodden Keanu Reeves sitting on a park bench and eating a sandwich, has been transformed into a hilarious household toy thanks to a 3D printer.
The figure was created by the Japanese toy company idk, and it was designed by Nancy Liang using a 3D printer. The pictures below were taken by idk, and as you can see, the 'Sad Keanu' toy makes just about everything better. If you want to get meta about it, we recommend plotting the toy down on the couch while watching The Matrix. Then it will look like 'Sad Keanu' is really disappointed in his own performance. The 3D printing service, Shapeways, is currently selling the toy for $45.
Come on man, these cats are trying to cheer you up and you're still sad?
Somehow these action figures are sadder than him.
This is the worst/best Christmas.

If you are new in Game Development and don't know how 3d game characters are created and which software are used then you are at right place. In this video tutorial Bruce Buechner has given overview about character creation process. This tutorial is for complete beginners who are interested in workflow of character creation.
Game Character Creation Workflow for Beginners
This video tutorial is divided in two parts. In first part you'll learn that where to start for a character creation and up to the character texturing process. In second part you'll learn how to create normal maps for game character and what is require to animate 3d character. By following this tutorial you'll be able to find out which software you need to learn for which process.
As shown in below images there are different software used for different process at each stage. For example base mesh was created in Maya. Then Sculpting was done in Zbrush. Then for UV unwrapping and texturing he uses 3D Coat. Then he exported high resolution mesh and low resolution mesh to generate normal map using Xnormal. At the end he used Maya to rig the game character.
There are different workflow for creating game character. It may vary from people to people. And of course you can use different software too. Like you are beginner then you may try Blender for modeling purpose. You can also use Mudbox for sculpting. But the point is that the process will be same and you have to go through each stage.

Opportunity Programs
Summer Institute
For some students, the transition from high school to college life can be a difficult one. There's a different way of thinking, working, and studying. Add to that living away from home and interacting with students from a variety of backgrounds, and the experience can be overwhelming.
Utica College's Opportunity Programs offers a variety of services to ease that transition. One such effort is Summer Institute, a five-week program that acquaints pre-freshman students with the campus and campus life. All Higher Education Opportunity Program students are required to attend Summer Institute. Other students looking to strengthen their academic skills are welcome to attend as well.

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It's a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.
Still nothing too interesting on my side of the fence. I'm attempting to start planning my travels (hopefully a 3-4 month excursion back to Australia & Asia, depending on what I can affording). Weather's not too bad, book club is still enjoyable (now that we keep adding more food to each meetings) and I'm still trying to catch up on TV. There's also a few books that are coming out soon that I'm so excited for so, I'll probably be over-indulging in some reading soon. Hope everyone has an awesome week.

Scott Lance Bennett, 26, was arrested around 7:30pm Thursday in the 7600 block of Curry in northeast Houston, according to the Friendswood Police Department. The Houston resident was then turned over to Friendswood police, where he remains behind bars on a felony theft charge.
Detectives say Bennett was one of the three masked suspects who rammed a stolen pickup truck through the glass doorway of a Walgreens at the intersection of FM 518 and FM 528 on October 8 and loaded the store's ATM in the back of the truck and fled the scene.
The men allegedly then drove to a nearby park, where they moved the ATM into another vehicle and abandoned the stolen truck.
Detectives say they found DNA evidence at the scene, and when they submitted it for analysis, the results matched it to Bennett.
It wasn't immediately known whether the other two suspects have been identified or arrested.
Bennett's bond has been set at $20,000.

Fiat Chrysler A No Show At Meeting With German Government Over Diesel Scandal0
Sponsored Links
Fiat Chrysler did not show up to an interview with the German transport ministry that was scheduled after the Fiat 500X was found to be producing illegal levels of tailpipe emissions, The Associated Press reports.
The German government accused FCA of attempted to skirt emissions laws in the country after they found the diesel Fiat 500X would enter an emissions-saving mode for the first 22 minutes after it the engine was started. The German emissions test typically lasts about 20 minutes.
Lawyers representing FCA sent a letter to the German transport ministry announcing they would be a no-show, as the automaker's vehicles are certified in Italy and thus only Italian authorities could conduct an investigation. German transport minister Alexander Dobrindt called the automaker's behavior "completely incomprehensible" and said they had "concrete allegations" against it.
The investigation into FCA is part of a broader investigation by the German government spurred on by the Volkswagen diesel emissions scandal. In addition to FCA and VW, General Motors' Opel brand has also come under fire for using emissions altering software.

At Nemours, we promise to do whatever it takes to treat children as we would our own. When your child comes to Nemours, we know you're placing your trust in us. This trust and our dedication to improving the health of your child is what inspires us to provide exceptional care and the most satisfying experience possible.
Patient Care
Patient Satisfaction: See what families say about our care.
In the Words of Our Families
We believe that your thoughts and feedback about your family's experience with Nemours are integral to helping us continue to improve our care. Here are some of the personal testimonials we've received from parents like you:
"Our Nemours physician is my child and family's life line. She goes above and beyond to ensure that my son's health and well-being are always a priority. I have dealt with this doctor for over eight years and her level of care has been consistent with two of my children. We are blessed to have her! We will always be grateful."
"Our Nemours doctor gave my son the most thorough exam my son has ever had. My son is only 8 months old and he was the sixth doctor he had seen for his condition of infant eczema. The doctor stayed in the room with us for an hour and 15 minutes. It took us 10 weeks to get an appointment with him but it was well worth it. The service he provided far exceeded any other doctor I've ever been to. I wish I should have gone to him when my son's condition was at its worst because I'm sure it would have been more beneficial than what the other doctors provided."
"We have been coming to [Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children] since my daughter was 9 years old and have never had a bad experience or encountered anyone who was not pleasant or unprofessional. Our doctor's administrative assistant has been such a wonderful part of our experience. She is professional and warm, is so informed about her job and just about anything I ask her, and I ask a lot!"
"Our doctor is an expert in his area. He is thoughtful, and he is one of the nicest people I have ever encountered. My son is very lucky to have his support."
"Our Nemours doctor is superb! I can't say enough good things about his care for our very medically-complicated child."
"We've visited [duPont Hospital for Children] many times over the past three years, and we've received treatment from many physicians, nurses, and supporting staff. Service has always been outstanding!"
"Our physician is an amazing person! She has taken such a weight off our family in managing our son's care. I have nothing but the utmost respect for our doctor and would highly recommend her to anyone!"
"Our daughter is very shy when first meeting people and often very scared with doctors. This doctor and all the staff made her so comfortable that I'm sure they never imagined her being shy!"
