Champagne and Strawberries above Jackson Island
February 4, 2014
- Oil on Canvas
- 9″ x 7″
- $595
In listening to Dennis Dutton's Ted Talk on Beauty, I found that he describes my landscapes very accurately, except for the food part. According to Prof. Dutton we are all, no matter our current location in this world, attracted to the Pleistocene savannah on which our ancestors evolved. His description of an appealing landscape includes open grassland, stands of trees (apparently we also prefer them with forked trunks low to the ground), a body of water and a path, road or shoreline leading to the horizon.
Valentine's Day is soon upon us. It's a time to salute love, beauty and a sense of adventure. This little painting gives a nod to those and in one of my favorite parts of the world. Mark Twain placed Tom, Huck and Joe on Jackson Island for one of their adventures. The viewer sits above the Mississippi River at sunset celebrating the moment.

I love the painting, particularly the blues and greens. Not so sure that I agree with Professor Dutton.
Thank for posting more beauty for me to see.
Love, Janet

Dr. Kermit Gosnell, 72, ran the Women's Medical Society in West Philadelphia, which served mostly low-income women and teens, and went years without a state inspection. Gosnell also faces hundreds of abortion-law violations, for allegedly performing third-trimester abortions and failing to counsel patients.
The jurors could return a verdict of first- or third-degree murder in the four infant deaths, and third-degree murder or involuntary manslaughter in the 2009 overdose death of a patient, Karnamaya Mongar of Woodbridge, Va., a 41-year-old mother of three and recent refugee to the U.S. who died after an abortion at Gosnell's clinic.
Co-defendant Eileen O'Neill, 56, of Phoenixville, a former employee of Gosnell's, is charged with billing as a doctor when she did not have a license.
Eight former employees have pleaded guilty since the 2011 indictment, and all but Gosnell's wife testified against him. Four others have pleaded guilty to murder charges for either "snipping" the babies with scissors after they were born, or helping sedate Mongar despite a lack of training.
The jury heard nearly two months of graphic testimony and arguments before deliberations began Tuesday afternoon. Jurors appear focused, but friendly with each other. They include several transit workers and a water department inspector.
Gosnell's lawyer argued that there were no live births at the clinic and blamed Mongar's death on unforeseen medical complications. O'Neill's lawyer said she worked under Gosnell's supervision.
Infanticide in this case applies to a doctor's treatment of a baby born alive during an abortion. That charge here applies to only one baby, born to a Delaware teen and estimated to be as old as 30 weeks gestation. Gosnell allegedly joked the baby was so big it could "walk to the bus."
Gosnell has been in custody since his 2011 arrest, while O'Neill remains free on bail.

If you're clueless, the gym can be a dangerous place. But even if you've been training for a while now, more than likely you would have been injured in some way shape or form when at the gym. Injuries can come about in a number of ways, some spectacularly or some just build up over time. Check out our top 5 list of most common gym injuries, ways to help prevent them, and remember to respect the iron.
1. Foot injury from dropped weights
According to an American study, injuries related to the foot or toes from dropped weights are more common for women compared to men (Quatman et al, 2009). Often, a lack of focus can be to blame. Other times, sweaty hands/poor grip, or a lack of knowledge on proper machine use can also be the culprit. These types of injuries are quite painful given the delicate nature of your feet. This is a reason why most gyms enforce a "must wear shoes" policy, but to be honest, some soft fabric over your feet is not going to provide much protection against many kilos of falling iron.
If you find that you often drop things, it may be a good idea to not listen to music when at the gym. Instead, focus attention on your surroundings and equipment you are using. Always use collars if using free weights to ensure plates do not slip. Gym gloves or chalk are also a great way to improve grip.
2. Hitting your head on equipment
Have you ever tried to get into position for a bench press, only to hit your head on the bar? Don't worry because you're not alone. This author has even experienced a situation in which his bench was placed too close to an adjacent squat rack, and he hit his head on a resting barbell when standing up. When there's a fight between a skull and iron, iron always wins. Lesson learned.
Always take your time when getting in and out of position when at the gym. You should always have a mindset to not rush a workout. Take your time to rack and unrack. This would give you the best time under tension, the best results, and the best safety.
3. Slipping or tripping on the treadmill
If you do a quick YouTube search it won't take you long to find hours of footage of "treadmill fails". Tripping over or slipping on a treadmill is a common occurrence and is hugely embarrassing. But worst of all, it can cause grazes and even sprained ankles. A relatively common scenario is as follows. You're running on the treadmill, you feel tired, the burn is just too much, and want a quick break. So you grab the handles and try to hop onto the extrusion (the frame that surrounds the belt), but you miss, and you end up face planting, then being immediately whipped backwards onto the floor of the gym. Classy..
As unpopular as it is, the safety clip should be used. It will stop the treadmill the moment it feels you are falling back. As silly as it seems to say, but make sure your shoes are well tied before jumping on. There's nothing worse than tripping on your own laces.
4. Strains and pulled muscles
Muscle pulls, strains, and overuse have been found to be more common among men compared to women (Quatman et al, 2009). The reason for this is partially to do with poor form and "ego lifting". You might get away with poor form in the occasion session but eventually, doing it over the long term would eventually have you end up at the physio's office, or worse, on the surgery table.
Check your ego at the door. The gym is a place for you to make gains, not a place for you to show off. Always work within your limits, and when you decide to push it to a new level, a spotter is always a good idea. If you are benching or squatting, make sure you take the time to set the safety pins (if available) to the right height. If you are learning more advanced lifts such as the snatch or clean, make sure you learn how to dump the bar safely as a priority.
5. Chronic muscle imbalance
Chronic muscle imbalance can result in some pretty life changing problems, such as poor flexibility and mobility, bad posture, muscle pain, increased susceptibility to injury, and chronic pain. Imbalances do not happen overnight, instead they come from months and even years of poor exercise programming. Simply put, when you exercise one muscle, you need to also exercise the opposing muscle to prevent your body from becoming deformed and dysfunctional. A common example includes doing too many bench presses, without enough pulling exercises. What happens in this situation is that the chest and anterior (front) parts of your shoulders become tight, pulling your shoulders out of alignment and causing a hunched-over look.
To prevent muscle imbalances, proper programing is a must. Training only a single muscle group is a good way to develop imbalances, so training your body in a balanced and holistic fashion is recommended. Remember to train all sides of your body, the back and the front. For every dumbbell curl you do, you should also do a tricep extension. For every squat, you should do a deadlift. For every bench press, you should do a barbell row. You get the idea.

He Didnt Have Money To Buy An Apartment and He Bought A Garage But Look What He Did Inside
It is apparent that people in this day have a huge prioritization for quality investments which will lead to specific enjoyment perks brought by it in later years. The biggest problem faced by almost every individual internationally is monetary capabilities. In order to obtain such investments, one must be readily-equipped with a number of resources available, that is, the specific materials that one already owns as well as one's financial statement.
Because the world is currently growing in ideas by the day and more people have realized talents that could help them improve their current quality of life, there is no surprise that a lot of individuals would resort to adding a practical touch in terms of the investments they wish to pursue.
One example is a man called Jérémie Buchholtz, a French photographer who could not afford the high prices offered by Paris apartments. After some time of decision-making, he purchased an old, 440-square-feet garage in Bordeaux and acquired help from an architectural firm, Fabre De Marien, specifically his friend, Mathieu De Marien, in order for the area to be transformed into a wonderful place of his liking.
The incredible Metamorphosis from a single, dirty garage to a beautiful work of art has sparked the attention and interest of millions, worldwide. The use of sleek furniture and minimal array of colors have given the house its very relaxed atmosphere, while maintaining its very homey vibe. It is quite unbelievable that a man could spend only as little as $9,000 dollars in Paris towards creating a very stunning home.
Overall, the aftermath of creating such ideas, thorough decision-making and the desire to turn it into reality would not have been possible if Jérémie have not properly utilized the resources he had on hand for a lifetime investment he would evidently enjoy.
SMALLER homes do not have to make everything else seem tighter and cramped for the residents. As a matter of fact they - like casitas and accessory dwelling units (ADUs) -provide more benefits compared to bigger houses.
One of the most important things to consider in buying a house is the size: the bigger, the costlier to maintain. But a smaller home, which requires a smaller portion of the lot, cuts your expenses in half and also leaves a bigger space that can be used for other purposes.
A smaller house also requires less power consumption, which means fewer lighting units and other electrical fixtures. There is also less worry on wasted space as cleaning becomes a lot easier; use of the vacuum cleaner and water is minimized, saving you money, time and effort.
Unsurprisingly, a smaller home will always lack that much needed space. But, this does not have to affect comfort and privacy. You can always change the scenery in and around your house no matter how big or small it is. And you don't even need the expertise of an interior designer to do it for you. All it takes is some creativity to make your little abode look and feel much bigger than it actually is.

When Google chose to unveil the latest iteration of their Android operating system, dubbed Gingerbread, they did it by simultaneously launching the second so-called Googlephone: the Samsung Nexus S, which comes with Android 2.3 pre-installed.
The Nexus S is, hardware-wise, pretty much indistinguishable from Samsung's best Android smartphone, the Galaxy S, so if Gingerbread works on one, it should work on the other… right?
According to Samsung, not necessarily:
"In case a new version of Android operating system is publicly announced and released, Samsung will review the possibility of implementation of such new version to the existing Samsung products with Android operating system ("Update").
Such a review will be based on various factors including, without limitation, the overall effect of such Update to Samsung products, the system requirements, the structural limitations, and the level of cooperation from the component suppliers and the software licensors"
This, right here, is the problem with Android: since Google makes it open, every manufacturer out there tweaks their own Android installs with whatever custom skins or superfluous extras they think are necessary. Fine, whatever, but then these same manufacturers lose interest in patching these same phones once they've gotten money for them.
Samsung's not saying that Gingerbread is definitely not coming to the Galaxy S, but it's testament to the stupid fragmentation of Android that two almost identically specced handsets aren't eligible for the same upgrades.

And how high will it go with Immigration Reform? 100%.
Good ol' Obama's reverse logic having devastating effects on the country.
Aren't these people paying attention to Obama's trained economists? They assure us that massive increases in the cost of labor will have no effect on employment.
If they truly want to help, they should repeal the minimum wage laws.
...change from Odungoville
As the wage being paid raises, so does the bar of competence and even the first rung of employment may become more competitive which in turn could leave a growing percentage unemployable as people who have learned some workplace skills and mannerisms start showing up to apply.
Reminds me of the young guy who left a message on my answer machine last night about my alma mater's annual fund drive - no doubt, most likely a student at the same college. He spoke in "mumble-speak" with no clear pronunciation/enunciation, no cordial, pleasant expression at all. I wonder how in the world people expect to get a $10+ an hour job when they cannot even speak properly, coherently, intelligently.
This is their intention: expand the class of unhappy people by keeping them poor. Then claim that they have to take more money from people who are earning more.
Complete misery and control is what they want.
If there has to be a minimum wage, why not make an exemption for teenagers or students so they can do something productive and make a few bucks.
Treat black kids like white kids. Hire them as interns. isn't the minimum wage for college educated interns approximately zero?
Free from "job lock". All hail King Hussein!

The Left wants blacks ALL on the federal dole except the ones who are helping the Left rule as bureaucrats and enforcers. And it gets the added benefit that blacks in the cities increasingly keep the middle class off balance with their increasing criminal activity which will be enhanced by putting more of the young men out of work.
That advice may be found here. Essays on other subjects, such as government-controlled minimum wage levels, also are available at the site.
Williams introduces the "income inequality" matter in this paragraph:
"Democrats plan to demagogue income inequality and the wealth gap for political gain in this year's elections. Most of whats said about income inequality is stupid or, at best, ill-informed. Much to their disgrace, economists focusing on measures of income inequality bring little light to the issue. Lets look at it." - Walter E. Williams
The following magazine ad was published many years ago, and utilized Dr. Williams clear message on the consequences of government-forced minimum wage laws. Since his conclusions are based on sound principles, they are as valid today as they were then.
purposly do poorly in school cause ya don't care to be called a "tom'.
Geet a few "hoes"preggers and go to jail for some reason.
Then expect a job?

In many ways, I had a bad first year of marriage. My wife was like a wilted flower, and I had sucked the life right out of her through my temper tantrums, late night lectures, and inconsistent behavior. To make matters worse, I was an assistant pastor of a church, therefore, I had a verse for everything. In fact, once she said, "You have a verse for everything." I quickly retorted by saying, "Well, the Bible says to 'let every man be fully persuaded'."
My Defensive Attitude
Seeing that my wife's spirit was closed to me, I quickly became defensive in my spirit. Not enjoying the emotional distance between us, I would try to breach the gap between our hearts by managing her thoughts and emotions through carefully constructed arguments and pleas. To be honest, it only made matters worse.
At one point, I was convinced that God had given me the wrong person. I was adamant that she was either rebellious in heart or simply closed-minded toward Biblical truth about marriage. The only thing I had not considered was that I may have been responsible for the wilted condition of my flower.
Not too long into the marriage, something happened. I vividly remember the day when the Lord showed me that I had been the problem as I was not pouring on her the sunlight, water, and nutrients of unconditional love and kindness. As I took personal responsibility for the state of my flower and started taking care of her as God would have me to, something even better happened. All of the things that I had tried to get out of her by using anger and pressure tactics, I started to receive from her. The truth is, once I began taking care of my flower in a Biblical way, her petals came back to life and she opened her heart to me as she had once done.
The Need for Outside Help
If you are in the midst of marital difficulties, then we would highly encourage you to consider obtaining some type of outside help. Though it may take humility, please keep in mind that pride is a weakness and humility is a strength. Also, bear in mind that most people do not figure marriage out on their own.
Whether you use the help of godly brothers and sisters in Christ, pastors, counselors and relationship coaches, or Christian-based marriage material, we recommend that you allow others to fast-forward you through the learning process.
Also, if you would like to consider our relationship coaching services, feel free to contact us for further assistance.

Innovative Lawyer-Focused Billing App Debuts on iTunes
Your Time Is Money uses bold interface to track billable hours
Feb 19, 2013, 09:17 EST
FREEPORT, Grand Bahama Island, Feb. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Time is money. Few professionals observe this adage as closely as attorneys. Knowing this, busy litigator Jacy Whittaker has launched Your Time Is Money, an innovative iPhone app designed to track billable hours—and convert them into invoices. The app became available on iTunes in January, 2013.
"Lawyers work long hours, often at high hourly rates," says Whittaker. "Knowing how many billable hours you've logged can be extremely satisfying. But keeping track isn't easy when you're running from meeting to courtroom, or office to taxi to dinner. I wanted to create an app that makes this crucial measurement fully portable, while creating a clear and amusing visual."
A handful of distinctive features set Your Time Is Money apart from other billing applications. The interface is simple but bold, in matte black with bright gold numbering. It tracks fractions of an hour (down to the second), in four common currencies.
Your Time is Money is the only app of its kind that does not require independent software. It can run in the background—permitting phone calls, emailing, and other functions for multi-tasking lawyers. It can also operate offline—particularly useful in signal-less courtrooms. It tracks billable time in seconds, and emails the information to the biller, his accounting department, or wherever else it needs to go.
The app turns time into money—and vice versa. The user enters his rate and currency (in Dollars, Euros, Pounds and Yen) and hits START. The hours arrive with the cheeky written message, "I just made [amount of money]. What a way to spend [amount of time]."
Your Time Is Money was designed for lawyers, but is also ideal for hourly consultants and freelancers.
About Your Time Is Money
Your Time Is Money is an innovative iPhone app from Kingston Resource Group Ltd. The app tracks billable hours to the second. Designed specifically for lawyers the app is also ideal for consultants and freelancers who bill hourly. To download Your Time Is Money, visit iTunes and search for Your Time Is Money by Loaded Response LLC.

During Tuesday's consideration of House Bill 153—a constitutional amendment that would allow voters to decide whether to reduce the state House of Representatives to 151 members—Democrats on the House State Government Committee used the legislative process to offer an amendment to the bill that resulted in the waging of a proxy war over redistricting reform.
A resolution introduced this week by Sen. Mike Folmer (R-Lebanon) urges the U.S. Congress to take action to protect medical marijuana patients who are gun owners or who would like to be gun owners.
A resolution sponsored by Rep. Steve McCarter (D-Montgomery) to designate October 2017 as "Biodiversity Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania drew derision on Tuesday not commonly leveled at designation resolutions on the House Floor.
A group of lawmakers in the state House of Representatives is looking to prioritize regulatory reform in Pennsylvania upon returning to voting session this coming fall.
After holding two public hearings on the issue earlier this summer, members of the House State Government Committee on Wednesday held a members-only informational meeting to discuss the previously submitted testimony and set a course of action for the committee to take on regulatory reform.
A bill designed to delay the proposed consolidation of four human services related state agencies for up to a year passed along a narrow margin from the House Human Services Committee Wednesday.
However, the bill has an uncertain future as more specifics about the consolidation plan become known.

Project Runway Season 2
Jan. 25, 2006
Fashion can be very tiring. Just ask the seven remaining designers on Project Runway. In Episode 8, they're all looking as though they could stand a good vacation to reinvigorate their creativity.
It's a good thing then when Michael Kors welcomes them to his studio and gives them all a digital camera and an hour to walk New York City taking photos of things that inspire them. From these pictures they will create an outfit. It's not exactly a trip to the beach, but hey, these guys seem to need all the breaks they can get.
The show is ripe for cattiness and Zulema sets the stage by asking for a walk-off among three models, shocking the rest of the designers. After the walk-off, Zulema chooses Tarah, Nick's model, prompting him to want to throw up. Needless to say, Rachel, the shunned model, is none too pleased either.
So back on the streets of New York the designers take photos of graffiti, street signs, dirty water, gleaming skyscrapers and even people on the streets. They head back to Parsons to design and next to Mood for fabric, with only a $100 budget each. Once back in the trenches at Parsons, Tim Gunn steps in to issue an even greater challenge to the designers, telling them to step it up, strive for more and be ambitious. It wasn't exactly the speech they were looking for and didn't do so much for Nick who was already pretty bummed about losing his favorite model.
It must be noted that this episode introduces us to a kinder, gentler Santino, who realizes that his days may be numbered if he doesn't really listen to what the judges have to say. He admits that his skating costume from the previous week was ridiculous and seems sincere in his new-found dedication. He also unleashes a killer Tim Gunn imitation that is so dead-on, you would think it was actually Tim talking. It was hysterical and showed a silly side to Santino. He almost got caught poking fun at Tim, quieting down right as Tim walks into the room.
Zulema is struggling with the construction of her dress and as the clock ticks away, she is having trouble completing and sewing it properly. Daniel V shines early on, drawing inspiration from two beautiful orchids.
Day Two of the challenge brings the models into the workroom where Zulema has to sew Tarah into her dress minutes before they head to the runway. Once on the runway, the designers find that Jay McCarroll, the winner of Project Runway's inaugural season, is one of the judges along with Nina Garcia and Michael Kors. As a fan of McCarroll, I was expecting plenty of sass and he dished it up once or twice. Though, Heidi Klum reminded him that he, like some of this season's designers, also had created some pretty big stories around his clothing.
Daniel's stretch tweed skirt and sculptural silk organza top were a breath of fresh air and exactly what Tim was looking for when he encouraged the designers to take risks. His look was couture and classy and with it, he landed his third win of the season. A close second was Andrae's gutter water-inspired evening gown, a bias-cut dress with a braided sash and sparkly beading representing the small stones he photographed in the gutter.
Local girl Chloe, an obvious favorite among the designers showed well and even though her usual attention to detail was missing due to time constraints, she flew right into the next round.
Not surprisingly, it was Zulema who drew the short straw, not so much for her design, but for her bad sewing skills and construction. It was an ironic ending for someone who started the show with so much drama. With six weeks left in the show, it will be no surprise to see Kara go next week in Episode 9. Anybody care to disagree?

Horoscope for July 7, 2016
Related Posts
|ARIES: Maybe you'll feel a bit highly strung or wound-up now but you can make good use of your hyper-active state. You will be absolutely on the ball where discussions are concerned, having more than enough ideas of witty suggestions to keep the conversation flowing. Just make sure you aren't being too sharp at points. The main thing to remember is that Pluto around now changes life a little bit. It tries to get rid of things that are no longer any use to you.
|TAURUS: This is definitely not the time for sitting still. You will be whizzing around on short-distance journeys, or writing more letters than usual, making phone calls galore. You feel you just have to talk, talk, talk. Just watch a slight tendency to tell other people exactly what you think of their inadequacies and flaws. Needless to say that will not always go down well. Maybe you'll be looking too much on the dark side now seeing only problems and losing your normal optimism.
|GEMINI: The Sun is beside Mercury in the heavens, which will make you think, talk and move a good deal faster than usual. It's a fidgety kind of influence. Though you may get so wrapped up in one tiny obsessive detail that you won't see the wood for the trees. What'll be said by yourself or others will be important. But everyone will seem a bit gridlocked. No one will want to compromise, partly because they feel they might be humiliated if they give way.
|CANCER: IF ITS YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY your year ahead will be chatty, restless, enthusiastic, charming at times and overly intense at others. With one close partner try to soften your approach even if they are being stubborn. Being confrontational will only end you up in no-win discussions. Your positive approach at work will help open new doors and you'll need to stay alert to grasp new opportunities. From August home will be happier and you'll be more at peace with yourself.
|LEO: You may be inclined to spread yourself a little thin at the moment because you're trying to handle six things at once. Get your list of priorities straight before you start. Then tick them off as you go along and you'll end up feeling more than pleased with yourself. You may get a little too pushy or forceful about trying to bring everyone round to your viewpoint. Or someone may be doing the same. Try to step back and be a little more detached.
|VIRGO: Sometimes it's a good idea to be self-critical, particularly before other people get a chance to have a look at your pet schemes. That way you can forestall criticism or complaints and appear very efficient. You will have a great love of mystery, wanting to find out what's going on in the deep, dark and secret corners. So you will be drawn to the hidden places in life. But it's important that you sort out your own secrets before probing into anyone else's.
|LIBRA: Too many ideas are chasing round inside your head so you are at risk of getting in a muddle. You've got to have some kind of structure to what you're saying, otherwise you won't communicate clearly. Sometimes you can get a little frustrated when Pluto is around as it is now because you'll feel you're not getting your own way. You'll then tend to get manipulative which can backfire. So watch that you're not trying to influence loved ones or mates too much.
|SCORPIO: If you can go with the speed of your thinking and not trip yourself up, then you could encourage companions into joining in. They will appreciate the freshness of your approach, and way of seeing what they miss. You'll be able to solve difficult puzzles in your emotional life and elsewhere now. But down go so far down into the depths you end up only looking on the bleak side. Try to stay with one foot on the surface, and one foot deep down.
|SAGITTARIUS: A really bright, breezy mood will keep you fully stretched. You will be a positive fountain of inspiration. But trying to catch your stream of consciousness and bottle it may be trickier. You will not want to stop long enough to consolidate your thinking or come to sensible conclusions. What you are learning now you are learning at a much deeper level than usual. You'll not be superficial, or interested in anything that is too frivolous. Just don't force your viewpoint on others.
|CAPRICORN: Your mind will be leaping from subject to subject at computer speed. Unfortunately, companions may be slower-witted than you, so try to slow down once in a while just to check they are actually hearing what you have to say. Be absolutely clear about what may seem to be trivial details. You'll be able to solve difficult puzzles in your emotional life and elsewhere now. But don't go so far down into the depths you end up only looking on the bleak side.
|AQUARIUS: You'll be in mental overdrive, so you zip on so quickly that you miss out on opportunities. It may go against the grain, but if you can pause to collect your scattered wits you will achieve more. If you rush ahead too fast you may get careless or cut corners. Then nothing works well. It'll be important not to get too dogmatic or self-righteous or get yourself too wound up now. Sometimes you'll speak in a way that others find slightly difficult to follow.
|PISCES: Others may be rather unsettled because of the direct and searching way in which you ask questions. But you're full of bright ideas, chattering away in grand style, determined to get your views across. Try to listen as well, if you can manage it, since communication should be a two way process. You could pick up useful feedback. Write down some bullet points before you start and that way you won't be distracted from your main points. You'll have a penetrating quality about you.

Strapon training is often an important part of a relationship where Women are Dominant and men are submissive.
It is sometimes used in a marriage where the husband is not allowed sex with his wife while She has many other lovers.
Strapon training offers extensive pleasure for the Dominant Woman and is a way of training a submissive man to be obedient.
You must be over 21 to access Strapon Women
The strap-on is a type of dildo that is attached to a type of harness and used during different types of sexual activity. The Strapon may be used for oral, anal, or vaginal sex and is often used in relationships where one partner is a Dominant and the other a submissive. It has become a common tool within the BDSM scene.
Women Seeking Men For Strapon Training
When buying a strapon there are a number of things to consider. Women may choose to look for a strapon that may provide sexual stimulation for the wearer. A harness should be strong and not made of material that will easily break. The harness should fit easily and feel comfortable. A simple two strap harness is the most popular. The first strap fits around the waist while the second strap slides under the legs and then connects to the other strap. The three strap harness is regarded by some as difficult to fit and often not comfortable. It consists of a strap that fits around the waist, the other two straps wrap around the thighs and rejoin the first strap at the front. A strapon harness may be made from a number of different materials including, synthetic, leather, cloth, plastic, rubber or latex.
When buying a strapon most people tend to focus on the dildo part. There are many dildo sizes and shapes to choose from and sometimes couples will decide to buy two or more strapon to suit their needs. The most common dildo is the one that takes on the size, shape and look of a penis. Sometimes moulded testicles may be added to the strapon. A probe dildo is often popular with beginners. The probe is narrow and allows for easier penetration. Some dildos are vibrating and many people find greater pleasure from the vibration.
One of the most important features of a strapon that you need consider is the way the dildo is attached to the harness. The most common method is for the harness to have a hole through which the dildo is inserted. The hole is often made of a rubber ring.
A term used to describe a woman sexually penetrating a mans anus with a strap-on. Although pegging is common in many relationships between a man and a woman, it is regarded as more common in relationships involving Domination and submission. Some research has shown that the sexual practice of pegging is on the increase.
Why men love woman to use a strap-on
There are many reasons why a man loves a woman to use a strapon and those reasons will vary from man to man. For some men it is a case of sexual pleasure, but most men say it is more the act of the woman screwing the man. Men say they love a woman they will use a strap-on every day and even more then once a day. Both partners feel the strap-on has become an important part of their relationship.

Women Seeking Men For Strapon Training
Some Female Led Relationships merely involve the woman wanting control over the household and the couple's life because she is somewhat dominant and her husband is submissive and the arrangement works to create harmony. However, some couples are extreme with their dominance and submission, and women demand full and complete power and control over their submissive male. They will train their submissive to be completely obedient and powerless. One of the methods Dominant women use to train their submissive male partners is with strapon training, where they take on the traditional male role and actively penetrate the male as a show of power and total control.
A strapon is a device that simulates the male. It consists of leather or cloth straps that fit around the woman's hips and attach to a dildo. The dildo can be any size and is typically made of plastic or latex. The strapon should be strong and comfortable, allowing the woman to use the dildo with the force of her hips exactly as a man would. Dildos can often be removed and replaced onto the strapon belt allowing for variation in size, length, texture and shape depending on the Dominant's needs.
The strapon device is then used to penetrate the submissive's body. Slaves are often forced to assume submissive or embarrassing positions that reinforce their lack of control over the situation, such as on their knees to orally receive the dildo, or bending over from the waist to receive the dildo. Verbal humiliation often accompanies a strapon session, and Dommes will laugh, tease, taunt and name call their slaves while they are receiving the dildo. Many submissives do not enjoy the stimulation initially, and must be trained to receive the strapon without pain. However, once they learn to let go and submit to the will of the Domme, the strapon can become an enjoyable activity.
Strapons are used in slave training by reinforcing the slave's lowly position and showing him that he holds no power whatsoever over his own body while the Domme is in compete control. It also reinforces the gender swap of a Female Led Relationship, making the Domme the male in the relationship that is penetrating the slave. Strapon training is not about what the man wants, and is more an exercise in teaching him to accept his role as a slave to become obedient and attentive to what she wants for him. Strapon training is quite effective in this, and when paired with a male chastity device can quickly bring about obedience and submission.
Strapon training must be done slowly, and an experienced Domme will ensure that the slave receives ample acclimatization to the dildo by starting with small, unobtrusive dildos smothered in lube and progressing to larger, fuller models once the slave is capable. Strapon training requires a great deal of trust by both the Domme and the submissive, and it can bring both closer in their relationship by defining roles and creating total acceptance of those roles. It is the ultimate show of power and helplessness of any Female Led Couple, and strapon training can be one of the most effective tools in submission training.
In BDSM, strapon training is where the Dominant partner, whether male or female, forcibly penetrates the Submissive partner with the dildo both orally and anally. Typically the Dominant partner is female and the Submissive is male, making this a true power exchange activity. This type of training helps to solidify the roles of the partners in the relationship, and it can help to recalibrate the Submissive partner's emotional, physical, and sexual responses in a way that can allow them to better please and satisfy the needs of the Dominant partner.
But getting started with strapon training can be overwhelming for new couples, especially if neither partner has engaged in this activity before. Even for those with some experience, it can be difficult to fully trust a new partner with something as intimate and powerful as strapon training. So how do new couples start to trust one another enough to start effectively using strapon training in a way to benefit their relationship?
The first thing a new couple should do is to sit down and verbally discuss the idea of strapon training. They should discuss in great detail the benefits they hope to gain from this activity, the desires that each partner has for this type of training, and the limits that they wish to place on the use of the strapon. Boundaries should be defined in this discussion before the training takes place, and there should be an agreed upon way to halt any behavior that is too much. This allows the Sub to relax during strapon training, knowing that he will never be forced beyond his limits, and it will make the training more effective in the long run.
Another thing new couples engaging in strapon training should do is start slowly. Use the strapon for brief training sessions that don't push the Sub's boundaries too far. Whether this means simply presenting the strapon, touching it and fondling it or using it for very slow, very controlled penetration is up to the couple, but by starting with controlled, reserved training, both partners can start to get a feel for each other's reactions which will lead to increased trust between partners.
Finally, strapon training should only take place in an environment where each partner is ready and willing to fully invest in the emotions of the other. The Dominant partner should be 100% aware of the Sub's mental, physical and emotional state at all times during the training, and he or she should be looking for signs of stress, emotional release, or true discomfort during the training. Yes, strapon training is designed to push the boundaries of the Sub, however it should not hurt him. The Dom must be looking for reactions in the Sub to ensure the activity stays within their comfort zone, particularly when the couple is first exploring this type of training. Starting off this way, with great care and concern for how the training is being received, will ensure that the training can continue to a place where it can truly benefit the relationship later.
Strapon training can be a delicate balance between pushing limits and ensuring comfort, and the best way for new couples to proceed is by taking great care to make sure that the other is feeling safe and loved throughout the training. Clear communication, trust building, and intense monitoring of the early training sessions will help everything move smoothly and allow the couple to trust one another enough to truly reap the benefits of this BDSM activity.
For those who love Women that use a strapon.

Apple's success in pioneering new types of product has helped it top a global league table that assesses the value of corporate brands.
Tech firms have dominated the 2014 Brand Finance Global 500 league table of the world's most valuable brands, with Apple topping the list for the third year running.
In the annual study by brand valuation consultancy Brand Finance, eight out the global top ten brands are technology firms. Only the presence of retailers Walmart and Amazon prevent tech domination at the top of the table, though the fact that the online retailer has leap-frogged its less tech-savvy rival to take eighth spot is telling.
Apple remains the undisputed champion, with a brand value of more than $104bn - more than $25bn higher than nearest rival Samsung. According to Brand Finance chief executive David Haigh, what sets it apart is its ability to monetise its brand, generating multi-billion dollar revenues across a range of product categories.
"Some of those categories it is largely responsible for creating," he says. "Though tablets were in use before the iPad, it was the Apple brand that captured the public imagination and allowed it to take off as a commercial reality."
Apple's dominance is being challenged though, with Samsung's brand value significantly outgrowing its American rival over the past year. While the South Korean conglomerate is involved in fields as diverse as construction, chemicals and shipbuilding, its consumer electronics division is driving its brand value. An improving reputation for reliability, a faster pace of innovation and wider range of devices have seen it increase by 34 per cent to nearly $79bn this year.
After a problematic initial public offering (IPO) in 2012, Facebook has rebounded strongly adding 76 per cent to its brand value to bring the total to $9.8bn. Growing revenues from mobile advertising have boosted investor confidence, but Brand Finance senior analyst Sanjay Gunewardene thinks the world's most popular social media network needs to be wary of resting on its laurels.
"The question is if they are able to keep the pace going," he says. "I think they feel very much that they need to have some sort of plan and not rely on advertising."
Dominating sectors
Despite solid growth of 10 per cent, computing heavyweight IBM has dropped down the rankings as others post figures of 30 per cent and upwards, though it still manages to remain in the global top 10. In the IT sector Oracle is the standout success story, pushing into the global top 50 with a respectable growth of $4.5bn in the last year.
"Oracle is going from strength to strength," says Ovum analyst Steven Hartley. "It's in the background but it powers a lot of what is going on with those near the top."
As a sector IT has performed well, with every company posting an increase in brand value, but with many brands achieving multi-billion dollar increases some big players have had a year to forget. Fujitsu saw its brand-rating drop from an AA to an AA- as it posted a measly 8 per cent rise in brand value, while Adobe dropped into the bottom fifth of the global rankings.
"It's the new guard versus the old guard," says Hartley. "Those companies at the bottom are fairly old-school IT companies."
In the electronics sector it's a story that has become familiar over the last decade, with traditional Japanese heavyweights lagging behind electronics-focused South Korean conglomerates. Samsung and LG had excellent years, with LG experiencing a stunning 60 per cent increase in brand value that pushes it in to the top 100 global brands.
In contrast the five biggest losers in the sector were Japanese, with all five dropping down the rankings. But it's not all doom and gloom - Sony and Panasonic have posted increases of 29 and 16 per cent respectively and Gunewardene says Brand Finance is predicting a comeback for some of the Japanese big guns, with Sony in particular doing well in its TV and gaming divisions.
The surprise story in the electronics sector is Phillips, who posted a $3bn rise to come out as the biggest winner this year. After a decade of being undercut by Asian manufacturers, Ovum's Hartley believes the firm's attempts to re-order their business is beginning to pay dividends. "They were still trying to do everything for everyone, trying to do what the Asian manufacturers have done, but on a European cost basis," he says. "They refocused, restructured, and it's nice to see them picking themselves up again."
Conspicuous by its absence is Nokia, which has finally been forced out of the Top 500 after a rapid fall from grace in recent years. While neither Ericsson nor Hauwei make E&T's Top 50 this year, their respective fortunes show a shift of power in the networking business. The Chinese firm's brand value grew by 58 per cent while the Swedish company managed only 4 per cent.
French firm Alcatel-Lucent though seems to be doing a better job of countering competition from Asia, boosting its brand value by $4.3bn. Gunewardene says: "Their share price has tripled since a new CEO came in and started a new restructuring process."
Global successes
In the telecoms sector American juggernauts Verizon and AT&T lead the way thanks to a near 75 per cent market share of fixed and mobile connections, but Japanese provider Softbank had the highest proportional brand value increase in the sector with an impressive 82 per cent. That rise explains the industry's worst performer - fellow Japanese firm NTT. "Softbank has been incredibly disruptive in Japan, it's really shaken up the cosy relationship. NTT has been the main victim of that," says Hartley.
At the heavier end of the technology spectrum, Airbus has profited from last year's decision to adopt the name of its flagship brand, dropping the clunky EADS and seeing the value of the Airbus marque rocket by 158 per cent. The rise is almost double that of any other proportional increase by a technology firm this year.
The outlook is not so rosy for fellow defence giant BAE Systems, which dropped nearly 150 places in the rankings. Defence cuts in the US, which accounts for 44 per cent of the firm's market, saw shares plummet last month, while several high-profile failures to seal deals for its Typhoon aircraft in the Middle East also hurt earnings.
Caterpillar similarly saw its brand value fall by more than $1.5bn last year as a long-term slowing of demand in the construction sector saw it cut its workforce and implement austerity measures in 2013. But positive last quarter results coupled with a recovery in the sectors it serves indicate it should be on the road to recovery in 2014.
If Japan appears to be the sick old man of the electronics sector, it has been saving its vitality for the automotive industry. President Shinzo Abe's 'Abenomics' programme seems to be paying off as global demand for Japanese goods improves with Toyota, Mitsubishi and Honda, Japan's three most valuable brands, all increasing their values by more than 30 per cent. "The Japanese brands are starting to make a comeback after getting battered by the Koreans," says Gunewardene.
However, Fiat chief executive Sergio Marchionne so far seems to have failed in his attempts to shore up Fiat's decline, with the brand topping the sector's losers list. A deal in early 2014 to take full control of Chrysler could help by allowing the firm to share technology, cash and dealer networks, but it remains to be seen whether the merger will be enough to cut Fiat's losses in Europe.
While some big oil and gas firms have seen their brand value cut significantly, energy suppliers EDF and British Gas have posted 20 per cent and 37 per cent rises respectively.
The big shock in the energy sector is Tepco, infamous for operating the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant that suffered a meltdown in 2011, which has boosted its brand value by more than 40 per cent. While it is still lagging behind its 2011 brand value of $7.4bn, Gunewardene says: "Despite the disaster, Tepco's revenues have continued to grow and analysts are expecting forecast revenues to increase further."

Spank Your Kids? You Likely Vote Republican.
While the rest of political journalism continues to parse the electorate by ways of life described by the U.S. census—
Matt Bai gets up close and chummy
with "white guys" in the
over the weekend—we at The Big Sort will consider two measures that are much more telling:
Spanking and shacking.
Yes, if you really want to know how people will vote, forget "white working class" or "single, college-educated women" and find out the important stuff—like whether a potential voter thinks it's OK to give the kiddo a swat.
Mark Hetherington and Jonathan Weiler have done some remarkable (and fun) research into the relationship between child rearing and politics. They saw that the National Election Studies surveys in 1992, 2000, and 2002 presented voters with pairs of attributes. The surveys ask, for example, if voters thought it more admirable if a child was independent or showed respect for elders. Should a child be obedient or self-reliant? Curious or well-mannered? Considerate or well-behaved?
George Lakoff described American society as being divided between "two different forms of family-based morality," the "strict father" and the "nurturant parent." The two political scientists realized these questions essentially fell on either side of Lakoff's division—and given the nature of the survey, they could see if there was a political connection between parenting styles and party choice.
There was. Republicans favored respect, obedience, good manners, and being well-behaved. They were strict fathers. Democrats, meanwhile, were nurturant parents.
Hetherington and Weiler could see this split widen over time. (Thirty years ago, after all, nearly everyone was a strict father.) By the time of the latest survey, parenting styles were a better indicator of political affiliation than income.
The two academics also measured those who favored spanking as discipline for children. They found that the "correlation between traditional parenting practices—the 'spare the rod, spoil the child' approach—and voting for President Bush in 2004 is remarkably strong."
And those styles had a geography. Massachusetts has the lowest percentage of people who favor the switch and the lowest percentage of voters for Bush. Those in Vermont, Rhode Island, and New York were also unlikely to spank and were very likely to vote for John Kerry.
Meanwhile, the spanking states—Idaho, Wyoming, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Montana, Alabama, Kansas, Tennessee, and Indiana—are, for the most part, reliably Republican even in this year's Democratic-trending election.
OK, how about shacking?
Demographer Ron Lesthaeghe was mapping changes in family formation in the U.S. when he noticed that "blue" states were different from "red" ones. White women in Democratic Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, California, Maryland, Illinois, Minneapolis, New Hampshire, and Delaware were both marrying and starting families later in life, more like women in Nordic countries than those in Utah, Kansas, and Wyoming. In particular, Lesthaeghe found, the higher the rates of cohabitation before marriage—i.e., shacking—the higher the vote for Kerry.
The demographer said that he "could find no better way to predict the vote for Bush" in 2004 than how people were creating families. The more American families formed like the Dutch, the greater the vote for Democratic presidential candidates. ( Here is one of Lesthaeghe's papers.)
Lesthaeghe, Weiler, and Hetherington aren't saying propensity to spank or to shack cause people to vote one way or the other. Their point is that family formation and child-rearing attitudes are part of a worldview. Our politics today are divided by worldview, not by demographic type. And those divisions are real and deep, as this increasingly bitter campaign attests.
"Little wonder our politics today are polarized," Hetherington and Weiler concluded. "The values of Republicans and Democrats are very much at odds. We do not agree about the most fundamental of issues."
Nor do we live in the same places. Spankers to this side, please. Shackers over here.

In a large bowl, combine flour, butter, egg, salt and 1 teaspoon water. Mix lightly with your fingertips until pastry forms pea-sized pieces. You should be able to see chunks of fat, and the pastry should be moist enough to begin to stick together. If the pastry is too dry, add up to 2 more tablespoons of water.
Turn the pastry out onto a lightly floured work surface, dust with flour, and knead it until the pastry is smooth, about 3 to 4 times. Transfer to a plastic bag and form pastry into a disk. Refrigerate a minimum of 30 minutes, or up to 3 days.

Universal Apps Trickle into the Windows Store to Save You Money
Universal Apps Trickle into the Windows Store to Save You Money is a post by Travis Pope from Gotta Be Mobile.
Microsoft only announced that it'd be introducing Universal Windows Apps at its BUILD 2014 conference earlier this month, but already users are starting to see them flow into the Windows and Windows Phone Store.
Updated listings for Halo: Spartan Assault and Skulls of the Shogun appeared overnight, with both of their pages now indicating that users can expect to purchase them once and have them available on their Windows Phone and Windows tablet, notebook or desktop.
Games aren't the only ones getting some love. Xbox Music and Xbox Video also now qualify as universal apps. That development is slightly less exciting when you consider that Microsoft doesn't require users to purchase those apps anyway. Still, it's a step in the right direction and more Microsoft-made apps are sure to follow in the coming weeks and months. Presumably, apps made by other developers will follow too.
Downloads that are universal have a small indicator underneath their Buy button that says "Made for Windows Phones and Windows PCs" in the Windows and Windows Phone Stores. The trick is simple, Microsoft wants users to understand that its consumer products will work together, especially since they're made by the same company. This new unified system makes apps a Windows-wide offering for users, and removes a big advantage that Android and iOS had over Windows. Both of those platforms allowed users to purchase apps for use on both their phones and tablets. Windows Phone and Windows users were forced to purchase the same games and apps twice. For example Halo: Spartan Assault would have cost users $4.99 on a Windows Tablet and a Windows Phone, each.
In reality, Universal apps are sort of like a mirror trick. Behind the scenes they are two separate apps, however Microsoft has unified its backend so that purchasing a version of an app on one of their platforms unlocks another version on the other. For now, developers still have to submit separate apps, but new changes to Windows Phone in

CD Reviews
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Two great country music artists. This is a must have. Everyone knows George Jones is one of the best, but Melba Montgomery has a unique one of a kind voice. With the two of them teamed up together it is awsome. This is a great buy, and I will highly recommend it. email@example.com"
Hidden Gem
gorby | Brooklyn, N.Y. | 06/16/2001
(4 out of 5 stars)
"If you're a George Jones fan but haven't heard this CD, you should check it out. He and Melba Montgomery were musical soulmates with a lot of the same hard country feel in their singing styles. The songs, while good, are certainly not the best material Jones has recorded. But the chemistry between the two singers goes a long, long way, as does the solid session players in the background. Oh, and be prepared for reverb."
Mostly upbeat traditional country
Peter Durward Harris | Leicester England | 04/11/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)
"To those who think that traditional country music is full of really sad songs, this budget compilation shows that it's not all like that. This compilation has eight duets and two solo tracks. The two solos (From here to the door by George and They bought the house next door by Melba) are sad, providing a sharp contrast the duets.
A look at the track listing is misleading. Some of the titles suggest upbeat songs but the others (apart from the solos) are also upbeat. The standout is, of course, We must have been out of our minds - the song that George and Melba are best remembered for as a duo. Other great tracks include Party picking, Living on easy street, Everybody oughta sing a song and Let's live together.
One day (I hope), somebody will put together a really great package of George and Melba's duets. Meanwhile, this serves as a reminder of just hoe great they were together. While George's recording career continued into the new millennium, Melba faded into obscurity - however, she is a great songwriter and made a career of it once her recording days were over. Her name still appears in the songwriting credits on contemporary country albums."

After starring in Mistess of Spices and The Last Legion, actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is looking at a Hollywood script co-starring Will Smith.
Talking about her foundation as a model and the Miss World contest to her present day acting career, Rai spoke candidly about the freedom she had while making decisions that took her career to the international level saying, "There is an incredible power in the word 'no'. If it's your conscious decision, go ahead and make them but most of all, believe your decision and have a conviction."
Acknowledging the accreditation she received on the global platform she stated it was due to the present time being "exciting and eventful in terms of international attention."
"I consider myself very fortunate to have enjoyed a fantastic support from a widespread section of audience……..I am very thankful for that kind of love and support because it has given me the confidence and strength of enjoying myself and explore different genres, be it art, commercial or historical, I have done it all."
Rai admitted to reading scripts from Hollywood and confessed that she would leave it to destiny to resolve. Expressing her enthusiasm for the project Rai stated she was "very excited about it because the script is fabulous…"
A self confessed Aishwarya Rai Bachchan fan, Smith has affirmed that Rai was his first choice to star not only in Hancock which was released earlier this year, but Seven Pounds too. Both offers were however politely declined by Rai due to prior commitments.
Will Smith has previously stated his belief that the future of international cinema lies in the marriage of Hollywood and Bollywood, while expressing a keen interest in acting in a Bollywood film himself.
Maybe destiny is finally conspiring to bring the two stars together so the audiences can finally see them gracing the silver screen together.

New Exhibit at Casa Diana
By Carmen Gutiérrez
On Friday, July 22, from 6 to 9pm, Galería Casa Diana will host a cocktail party to inaugurate Angel Pahuamba's exhibit, "Super Heroes and Masked Wrestlers." The collection consists of a series of acrylic and mixed media paintings in various formats. "Super Heroes and Masked Wrestlers" portrays fun representations of fictitious characters from the artist's childhood, modified by his perception and imagination. The masked wrestlers are characters from the Lucha Libre, a popular sport in Mexico characterized by colorful folklore and the culture that surrounds it. Whether it is with the "mutant ant" or the "green devil vs. caveman," Pahuamba's cheerful paintings are sure to take us down memory lane to watch our imaginary friends and childhood super heroes come to life.

text: I've never seen one and may be opening a BST soon, what would your thoughts be of paying in pounds? Any of my employees and myself will be from the UK so it would definitely be one less thing to worry about; having to keep converting from dollars to pounds. Also, for many of you converting your money to pounds will get you a greater value in the current climate. If you guys think dollars is the way to go we can of course do that. I just thought I'd ask as I believe I'd be ground-breaking in the BST section. Have a nice day! I'll respond later tonight as I'm going out now. Cheers Alex

Andalūzijas Suns (Dog of Andalusia) is another great part of Bergs Bazaar (check out the Bergs Bazaar article). A very democratic place indeed, with a light touch of industrial design in its premises and a very warm and cozy atmosphere.
I've been there dozens of times but I discovered Andalūzijas Suns in a new way some years ago, after visiting an annual event – "Prose Readings". A part of this heartwarming happening was held at Andalūzijas Suns, in the style of Sunday brunch. I remember sitting there by the large windows together with other fans of literature, sipping my cup of hot coffee and enjoying the games, late morning sunlight mixed with the readings from prose authors. That was a true delight.
On the other hand, Andalūzijas Suns is a great place to have a date with friends for some nice conversations and a glass of something, and the really delicious Tex-Mex they serve.
Now I have even more reasons to pay a visit to this wonderful bar – Riga Spotters had the first face-to-face meeting with Bart & Sanne the founders of Spotted by Locals right here and when the winter has come to Riga the tree next to this spot is simply amazing (without giving away too much).

Homes, offices, apartments, warehouses, and all other personal or commercial buildings are not immune to damage during the winter. Winter weather inevitably brings freezing conditions and this can spell disaster. So therefore, it is necessary to put strategies in place to avoid such occurrences whenever and wherever possible.
Steps to take to avoid damage:
- Inspect for damaged water lines, air drafts, heating systems, and make repairs promptly.
- Keep the cold out by sealing areas with caulk, foam, insulation and use temperature monitoring devices to make sure that the measures implemented are actually working.
- Keep warmth in and keep water moving to avoid the freezing of pipes and possible breakage. Insulating pipes is always a good idea, especially in unheated areas.
- Be aware of water flow volume and make use of both "home" as well as "away" settings.
- Configure temperature settings with existing alarm system, some of which can be controlled with mobile applications.
Steps to take if there is damage:
Once there is a damage of any kind, it is necessary to mitigate the problem and to prevent further damage. Here are some suggestions regarding the type of action to take once something happens:
- Shut off the main water valve.
- Implement any sprinkler impairment program.
- In the case of a frozen line, remove any ice plug and administer heat.
- Be sure to implement any emergency response and a business continuity plan.
- Contact a water remediation contractor.
- Remove high value or water sensitive equipment and material.
- Be sure to take pictures and/or video of any damaged areas and/or equipment.
Remember the old adage from Ben Franklin - "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" - and save yourself the extra stress this winter.

Lynchburg, VA (PRWEB) January 31, 2014
Liberty Mountain Publishing recently released its first e-book, "Getting to Gold" by Heather Bradley. Offered exclusively in e-book format, "Getting to Gold" is a "grown-up parable." It's a reimagined allegory of well-known Bible stories such as the creation of man, the entrance of evil into the world, and God's plan of redemption for mankind.
"When Jesus used parables, He explained deep theological ideas with simple, easy-to-understand, relatable stories," said Bradley about her choice to write an allegorical book.
"The great thing about allegory is that the emphasis is on the big idea. Not every detail is meant to correlate directly to the biblical accounts. It's another way to look at aspects of the story one may never have considered before."
With the understanding that familiarity can often breed boredom or even apathy, Bradley seeks to place the "well-worn image" of God against a fresh background by talking about "the face and hands and heart we know so well." in a different way.
"Hints are given so that the reader can figure out the meaning of the story and infer the implications. When readers have been actively involved in putting the pieces together, they have a deeper connection to the story, as well as to the greater 'Story' it reflects."
"Getting to Gold" seeks to impact an adult audience with a gentle introduction to the Gospel story. Hopefully, it will also revitalize the reality of redemption for those who have already experienced God's love.
"I hope that it will help believers who have grown so accustomed to the message of the Gospel to see it with fresh eyes," Bradley said, "I also hope it will give them a tool to use as they explain the depth of God's genius and His love to their unbelieving friends."
"Getting to Gold" is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
