Getting your company involved
We want to work in partnership with companies and their employees from across Bath and B&NES to support our services for older people. Why not choose us your Charity of the Year, encourage your staff to run an event, volunteer or attend an event at Fairfield House.
Supporting a charity like BEMSCA through the workplace has a number of real benefits to your company.
• The 'Feel Good Factor' of involvement with a well-known, respected and liked local charity and positive feedback from customers and staff.
• Spin-off marketing and PR opportunities resulting from their support.
• Team building within the workplace by working together to support BEMSCA.
Alternatively, help us meet the costs of funding our vital services by giving a Corporate Donation or through Employee Fundraising.
But there are other ways you can help BEMSCA.
1. Sponsorship. We always need Corporate Sponsors to help cover the cost of specified projects, events and services run by the charity. What better way can there be to promote your company than having it mentioned as one of our corporate sponsor on our website, through the media and on printed material where appropriate.
2. Gifts in Kind. We are always grateful to receive gifts in kind that we are able to use as auction or raffle prizes, or pop into goodie bags at events.
3. Enter a Company Team in a Fundraising Activity. Encourage your employees to support one of BEMSCA's events or to run their own.
4. In lieu of Christmas cards appeal. What about giving a donation to BEMSCA instead of Christmas Cards this Christmas?
5. Volunteering. Talk to staff at BEMSCA about how you and your staff can share skills and time to support the charity.
6. Give as You Earn. Support BEMSCA through a monthly gift through your salary. Talk to your employer to see if this is possible within your company. If you don't have one already, talk to other staff to see if they would be interested in supporting BEMSCA in this way.
BEMSCA relies on voluntary donations to support its vital services. Supporting our work could not be simpler. You can give a one off donation or set up a monthly gift.read more
Organise your own event
We provide a luncheon club service for Caribbean, Asian and Chinese older people at Fairfield House.read more

Team Murtha Update: June 23, 2017
Dear Team Murtha,
Many of you received news via Facebook…if not…
Greg is face-to-face with his Savior. In Greg's words, he "moved to the front of the line" yesterday evening while resting comfortably with family and friends. For the past seven days Greg has battled pneumonia in the Vanderbilt Hospital ICU until his body could battle no more. The Vandy team of nurses and doctors are world-class practitioners and people—thank you for taking such good care of Greg.
Greg has laid the plans for what is to come next. The body that once housed Greg's soul will be cremated while a team of people finish the book that has given him life and purpose for the last year. We will also plan a celebration of Greg's life—a life so worthy of celebrating in a big way. The party we host in Nashville will be in late August. We will work to set a date in the next several days so plans can be made. We will email you again once we have the exact date.
You know Greg, he would never want you or anyone to be left out. Come one, come all.
In the meantime, keep Tracey and Jackson in your prayers along with Kelli, Zac, and Mr. and Mrs. Murtha.
Alongside, Derek Bell
Chairman of the Board, Leading With a Limp (most of all, Greg's friend)
PS. If you need to hear Greg and Tracey's voice. See this great interview done several weeks ago.

"He loved her and that was the beginning and end of everything." - F. Scott Fitzgerald
Immediately after photographing Melonie & Louis's engagement in the Fall, I became super excited for their wedding this Spring. We instantly connected and photographing them was like spending time with old friends. Their wedding was Great Gatsby-themed, (both of their favorite book), incorporating fun and elegant 1920s style details. It was an absolutely stunning wedding for an amazing couple.
Congratulations Melonie & Louis! So happy for you two!
Melonie and Louis each had the sweetest pre-wedding gifts for each other, hand-delivered by the Maid of Honor and Best Man.
So much first look excitement! :)
Louis's reaction to seeing his beautiful bride walk down the aisle....literally melts my heart.
We snuck away from the dance party for a few romantic bride and groom portraits at dusk.
At the end of the night Melonie and Louis were picked up by a time period Rolls Royce - ahhhhmazing!

Huge shout out to my second shooter Rachel Dennis - thank you for helping me capture this special day!

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers attended the Wisconsin Badgers-Arizona Wildcats NCAA Tournament game on Saturday to cheer on the Badgers. After the game, Rodgers found his way on the court as the Badgers cut down the nets.
CBSSports.com's senior college football columnist Dennis Dodd took to Twitter to complain about Rodgers after he declined to partake in any interviews:
Aaron Rodgers in one of the biggest moments in the state's history — ignoring how media has shaped his image — "I'm not doing interviews"
— Dennis Dodd (@dennisdoddcbs) March 29, 2015
Rodgers later responded to Dodd's tweets, telling him to take it up with Wisconsin's athletic director and that he attended the Wisconsin game to watch basketball, not to do interviews.
Also with interview requests, sometimes the answer is yes and sometimes it's no. I'm not there for u, I'm there to support my friends n UW. — Aaron Rodgers (@AaronRodgers12) March 29, 2015

You are too self absorbed, now I see why I was getting nowhere.
It's not about the your or my idea, I couldn't care less. It's about responding to the strongest case made in the game since we began the day and maybe before against any player (Maddy no less which you wanted to vote for as you claim) and all you cared about was that tiny, irrelevant line or two about you and your idea. You don't see the problem?
If that post on the third day wasn't enough for you to see that it's a little better than your Idea to randomly vote someone then you seriously have an ego problem
Yeah went over the link again, point stands just the same
- - - Updated - - -
In a situation like this you should have helped me and get the other C's to cooperate so we can have a discussion on who is more likely G. Monty.Maddy or Klin. Having a discussion like that is exactly how you smoke out the G's. It was the best chance we had since the start since we had 2 G's in there out of 3 possible candidates.
I hope you agree that this was the most detailed and logical acquisition made in the game at that point unless I'm missing something. It was the best we had to work with and it frustrated me I had no one to exchange arguments with cause you were busy with the jailer thing and there was basically no one else. Can you at least understand why I found it extremely frustrating and tried so hard to convince you to let the jailer thing go? it was a waste of time cause it gained no traction, just like my idea then but I let it go just as fast' it wasn't at that point your Idea or mine. You didn't let go of yours which is also why almost everyone though you were a G.
If you and me at that point could have come to an agreement on Maddy we would had the power to pull all C's where we wanted to. I did it almost by myself but I didn't believe I wold mange to do it against Maddy so I had to choose you someone else.
In retrospect I could have gone for Monty but it's water under the bridge, I wasn't thinking straight at that point anymore cause I wanted to win but was exhausted from trying to convince everyone to vote together logicly. I had to do it cause no one read my post and gave me a hand voluntarily trying to get everyone on board.
To win this game you need at least 2-3 players who are willing to work together, even at the risk of one of them being a G. You just can't get anything done as a single player and I thought you would understand that, when it seemed like you didn't in my mind you were doing it on purpose and only then I added you to the vote. Do you see why it was an understandable mistake by me and everyone else?
I had Kiln but it was too late, we both wasted too much time suspecting each other.
I might been hard on you but looking at the way you played I assumed you do know how to play, I could be wrong as I don't remember how many games we played. Please, please tell me any of this is making sense and i didn't just completely wasted my time, although I love the challenge as you can guess.
I'm just generally more pessimistic, at that point where we went for C vs C for 2 days straight and Fr3sh lynched himself, I didn't believe in this particular group of Cs being smart enough to turn it around with normal measures, that's why I wasn't interested in cooperating and trying to figure out a target. for me that was futile, 40% chance that a whoever a jailer was would pick a good target seemed like a 1000 times better bet than hoping that the Gs won't swing the Cs again.
I got that feeling from most players after the second day, was super frustrating personally since I was super sure I had 2 G's at least and I couldn't do anything about it since I was jailed the 2nd day and the 3rd day was almost to late.
your expirance might have been the problem in our communication I think since I regarded you as a somewhat veteran player, especially at that 3rd day context when not alot were around and you doing well on the 2nd day. And that group that was left definitely wasn't the strongest but we still had some good players there.
Don't give up so quickly next time though things can changes fast, have a little faith
- - - Updated - - -
Sorry about my tone btw if I offended you
I wouldn't spend so much time worrying about it postgame.
I'm sure its just that Pitbull has been raised to NEVER trust a jew like Tomice. When reading Tomice plan, all he saw were the words of a serpent. It isn't personal.
I never understood this logic to be honest; As a G, I rarely think that I want to whack a good player. Priority #1 is always fishing for special roles and especially the detective with your whack targets; that IMO should always be what you look for when choosing who to whack. Something you guys did well btw, first day you whacked the detective, the second day you initially chose to whack the lawyer, but then he was jailed and you guys had to change. So from that perspective, your whack targets were almost perfect in this game.
for every action there is a reaction equal in magnitude and opposite in direction
ps i got caught lying.. but i honestly didn't wrote a single pm..im sure all g's had invisible mode on. this post is for all players, all C's who voted me
Un cavaliere non lascia mai una Signora

Dealing with unsatisfactory care
David's story
David is in his sixties and lives in London. He and his brother in Durham suddenly had to arrange care for his aunt in Manchester.
"We got a call out the blue saying, 'Your cousin has died.' She had been looking after her 85-year-old mother who had suffered strokes and developed vascular dementia. We said, 'What do we do now?!'
My aunt needed 24-hour care. We talked with her and she wanted to stay in her own home. We saw it as a family duty to respect her wishes and give her the best life possible. Fortunately, enough funds were available, though we had to work out her finances from scratch – it was a bit like being a detective, searching through her house looking for clues.
Finding care providers
Round-the-clock care paid by the hour is phenomenally expensive. But we did that for a short time because we had no other option while we looked for live-in carers, and the firm was brilliant – a charity.
It is very difficult to get Trip Advisor- or Amazon-type reviews of care providers. Social services just send a list and are so stretched they can barely answer the telephone. There is a total absence of good online information and the CQC reports don't tell you very much.
We checked out care companies to get a sense of how they balanced caring and making money. In the end we found a good firm, with national reach, so they were big enough to afford to employ trainers and people dedicated to sourcing, and managing vetting carers – the last being especially important.
Living with live-in care
The company placed carers for eight weeks and then they had a week or two off. We found that was a bit too long – six weeks is about the limit. Where possible, we requested the same relief carer. The big lesson for us was that you cannot just pay the bill and forget about it; you've got to take an interest, get to know the carers as human beings. When we needed a new carer, the agency would send us CVs and we'd discuss them with the local manager, and I'd do a quick telephone interview with them. We also made a 'Welcome' document with background about my aunt and the family together with her preferences and contact info, which we kept up to date. That was really valuable.
We called the carers every few days and someone would pop in regularly. We learned to ask 'how are things?' and look at their expression. We'd ask what they'd been cooking – whether they took the easy way out and just re-heated frozen food – and if they'd been able to take my aunt out at all.
Care Needs Care Now Campaign
The care system is failing to provide the support that we and our loved ones need. We're calling for action on care. Help us confront the care crisis by backing our campaign now.
Home care: the good and not so good
Some of the best carers had often been nurses and they loved my aunt and the job. We could tell the ones who simply thought of her as a patient. They just needed the money and often became very frustrated and did things for their own convenience. You must be alert and ready to take action – even good people can snap under stress. We had two carers removed because they became abusive to my aunt.
It settled into a very good system, and at the end, a carer – a wonderful 19-year-old from the UK – sat with my aunt through the night so that she wouldn't die alone."
Help us improve care
Have you had experience of a care home behaving in an unfair, unclear or misleading way? Have you had reason to complain about a care home and been discouraged, unable to complain or experienced problems as a result of complaining? Which? wants to hear about it.
We are helping the Competition and Markets Authority with its investigation into adult residential care to uncover any underlying consumer problems with the care home market. If you want to help, visit our campaign page.

I wanted to thank you for your help designing my pool deck. You were completely right about the color choice as well as the pattern. The deck actually looks like an extension of the house instead of a pool deck. The look is very different from a traditional pool deck. My girlfriend that just had her pool deck re done (she did not use Flagstone) stopped by and said that she liked mine better than her own, should have insisted on Flagstone. Have received lots a compliments from the neighbors as well. Thanks again for your input on this project.

Delusion and Buddha Nature Are Not Separate
One recent morning while meditating, I was reflecting on the nature of delusion. 2017 started off as a difficult year for me, and having struggled with a multiplicity of challenges, I felt at times as if I were drowning in delusion. Then, a moment of remembering and I was at peace: the awakened mind is nowhere but here, right in the very midst of seemingly impenetrable delusion.
This is my reflection:
Delusion and Buddha Nature are not separate. Our human nature includes delusion and clarity. When delusion is fully seen and known, this is enlightenment. What allows this alchemy? Letting go of identification with a fixed "self." A simple shift in perspective and the seeming duality of delusion and enlightenment dissolve.
When we think we have a self that we need to endlessly polish, hone and improve, we get caught in the illusion that awakening is elsewhere. Yes, we need our practice to help us remove what clouds the clarity of mind. As Suzuki Roshi said, "Enlightenment is an accident. Practice makes us accident prone." Yet in the very midst of delusion, if we see it fully, we are free.
How does this happen? As the mind and heart become still, desire and grasping fall away and there is only this moment and no one needing to do anything, change anything or even see anything. Here there is no self to fix , no self to enlighten. Here is the place of peace. I'm reminded of a quote from Albert Camus: "In the midst of winter I found there was, within me, an invincible summer. And that makes me happy."
Shortly after I wrote this reflection, I vaguely remembered this teaching from my very early years of practice in the Zen tradition. At that time, my understanding of this teaching was beneficial to me, but it only occasionally extended beyond my meditation practice into daily life. A google search brought me to Dogen's Genjo Koan. Here's a short piece:
"Delusion and enlightenment are originally inseparable. What is called delusion is as it is and what is called enlightenment is as it is. Delusion should not be detested and enlightenment should not be devoured. They are as they are and they do not get in the way at all. They are inseparable. This is what is reverberating beyond words and you should not overlook this.
If Buddhas recognize themselves as enlightened there is polarization of self and other. This is not enlightenment. You realize enlightenment through delusion and you are deluded through enlightenment. At the place of seeing, knowing perishes and the mind is stilled."

Birdsong Retreat Center, Ashland City, TN
Led by Lisa Ernst
"Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions." – Rainer Maria Rilke
Please join us at a beautiful, rural retreat location for a day of practice.

During this day of practice, we will have the opportunity to practice opening our hearts to our unresolved questions and inner dilemmas. These questions contain a rich source of insight; learning to live them brings about a radical shift that opens the door to clarity and equanimity.
This retreat is appropriate for all levels of experience.
Led by Lisa Ernst, the retreat will include sitting and walking meditation, practice instructions, and a dharma talk. Cost is $50 plus dana (donation) to the teacher. A scholarship option is offered.

Compassion For All
This dharma talks explores finding ground in groundlessness and why its important to keep our hearts open to compassion for all. This includes lessons from my own personal experience and from spiritual and civil right leaders such as Thich Nhat Hanh, Martin Luther King, Jr and John Lewis.
You Don't Have to Get Rid of Your Discomfort
Since the election many people have reported feeling edgy, angry, unsettled and uncomfortable and the feelings are not going away. Most of us have been taught since childhood that these are not good feelings and we should try and get rid of them. Even as meditation practitioners, we may feel that these feelings are something to "meditate away." But that's not a skillful outlook.
It's ok to feel uncomfortable right now, it's a completely appropriate response that doesn't need to be assuaged or mitigated. The problem comes when we are at odds with it, when we feel we are "wrong" in some way for these feelings or if we act out in harmful ways to ourselves or others because we don't know what to do.
Since the election, I have felt acutely uneasy for over a week. I had to avoid the mindset that I should be at peace and at ease. Growing up I experienced a significant amount of trauma and it stayed with me many years into adulthood. My father was an alcoholic and when he drank he was often violent and engaged in bullying, sexual abuse. and body shaming. After the election this trauma reemerged. But having spent years in therapy and with a meditation practice, I have the capacity to recognize and meet old trauma so that it doesn't engulf me. I spent time with this response until it eased. Some may not have this capacity and discerning that is important. If you are continuing to feel traumatic discomfort, you may need to get help.
The discomfort I feel now is not traumatic but it brings me to an edge where I need to be awake to it, to continue cultivating my willingness to be present in the midst of it and not tell myself I should change the feelings in some way, or that there is something wrong with me. This is all about changing my relationship to what's arising, not getting rid of it. This discomfort keeps me from feeling complacent; it keeps me awake. It is an edge that I have come to welcome and trust. When I have a welcoming relationship to the discomfort, I am in a better position to discern wise and compassionate action that is in alignment with my values.
I invite you to welcome your discomfort and let it be a teacher to you.


text: I just got my DS lite not even a month ago. Under the touch screen if I apply enough pressure it makes a screeching noise. When I look at it from the side where the volume and earphone is visible, it appears the piece of plastic shell are separating. Is this me being paranoid or is my DS already breaking? Should I exchange it while my policy is still good? I have three days left for that policy.

Look for an accommodation close to this path!
The "Grotta del Lago" (Cave of the lake) is located on the north Mount Etna side, at 2200 meters above sea level, in the "Sciara del follone" area. It was created during the eruption of 1620, its name is due to a puddle used by shepards to water the sheeps. It is not easy to reach: here we describe the path from the Grotta del Gelo, its about 1,5 km one way. It'is probably possible to reach this cave also from the Timpa Rossa refuge.
Let's start from the Ice Cave. Turn your back to the cave and start walking on the left, after a few meters there's a recent magma field on the right, with some red signs indicating the path. This section is a bit difficult to walk on, but after this the trail become quite easy until you get to the cave entrance.
Although we are at the end of August, the entrance is still full of snow. Inside the cave the are many ice crystals, but the "lake chamber" is dried. We don't know whether this is due to the season or to some change in the cave structure, Mount Etna caves evolve continuously. A new opening on the ceiling could cause an air flow, or a fissure in the ground could generate a water leak leading to this result.
The cave is very long, within it the ceiling collapsed in many points. We suggest you not to go too further inside, but just observe the lake room and the ice crystals in the first section.

Major Health Benefits
Your female pet will be able to live a longer, healthier life with spaying. Spaying can prevent uterine issues and breast cancer, which is a fatal disease in 50 percent of dogs and 90 percent of cats.
Spaying or neutering your dog can prevent unwanted litters and keep the pet population controlled. Furthermore, spaying or neutering helps reduce cancer if completed before eight months to 1 year of age.
Spaying or neutering your cat is recommended at five to six months of age.
Better Behavior
Neutered cats and dogs are much better behaved. Dogs and cats that are not neutered may attempt to mark their territory by spraying throughout your home, creating issues for you to clean up.
Neutering can also avoid many aggression problems and ensure your pet remains calm. Fight overpopulation with spaying and neutering services.
Fight Overpopulation
Spaying or neutering is a cost-effective option. You won't have to worry about having to care for an entire litter or about having your pet get into fights with strays.
Many cats and dogs of all ages and breeds are euthanized or live life as strays. Unplanned litters can be prevented by spaying or neutering to keep the population down.

|October 2007

October was another busy month for us, as most of them are and I can't believe that it's gone arleady. Cadence spent the month checking enjoying her new talent--walking! She's been all over the place and enjoying her independance. We had beautiful mild weather at the beginning of this month and we had a nice time getting outside into the sun.
Our first big event of this month was the girls' baptisim. We were so happy to be joined by our family and friends for this very special event. Emily was a little bit disappointed that Father Gerry poured water over her hard attained curls, but they both look beautiful and we're so glad to have finally gotten this item marked off of our 'to-do' list.
It was a very hot day that Sunday, but our trip to Luther the next weekend was the xact opposite. It was really cold; winter coat and hat weather. It was pretty warm around the fire, but away from it, it was freezing. Eric, cadence and I had planned to sleep out in our tent, but Aunt Margie took pity on us and we got to sleep in the house with the baby. That was a great thing, becuase it really was cold and Cadence really doesn't like to be covered. it was a bit stressful for me because I know she doesn't sleep very well and I was afraid she'd keep people up. It turned out okay, though.
we also made a trip to Traverse City, one of my favorite places. We got a coffee and walked around and had a great time. We were surprised to see a lot of dead fish in the river, but it turns out they were spawned salmon. I didn't take any pictures of those.
After our great weekend in Luther, it was time to start getting ready for Halloween. Emily's costume was made by me and finished and Cadence fit into hers perfectly. We started out the Halloween festivities by attending my moms group's Halloween party. The girls had a blast and Emily got to smack her very first pinata. Cadence just had a good time looking at all the kids in costumes and trying to figure them out.
And then, of course, came pumpkin carving. Cadence didn't participate last year, but this year she had a nice time playing in the guts. We put down newspaper on the table the floor and let her have at it. She sniffed them, threw them and even might have ate some (Jack ate a ton since Cadence kept throwing them over). Emily designed her pumpkin and have a nice time carving it herself. She was very proud of her work.
And then of course, came Halloween. Emily was beside herself and Cadence was just along for the ride.
On our way Trick or Treating (before I dropped my camera becuase Cadence fell down and made her nose bloody. The camera, sadly, shall now RIP. A halloween fatality)
Cadence was so excited about her pumpkin. She loved it and would give it pats.

Touted as one of the top five adventure sporting events in the world, the Himalaya 100 Mile Race 2014 will be held from October 18 to 22. The stage-wise race organised by the tourism department of the Gorkhaland Territorial Administration will start from the picturesque hamlet of Sandakphu. The running course has been widely described as the most spectacular one in the world as runners are treated to stunning views of four of the five highest peaks in the world, namely Mt. Everest, Kanchenjunga, Lhotse and Makalu.
Five daily stages comprising 24 – 20 – 26 – 13 – 17 miles are for middle distance runners. The first phase consists of a 24-mile trail along the Sandakphu National Park from Maneybhanjang (6,600ft) to Sandakphu at 12,000 ft. The first stage covers more than 10,000 feet uphill. The second stage is a 10-mile trail to Molle that offers spectacular views of the four peaks, while the 26-mile third stage starts from Molle downhill to Rimbik (6,350 ft). The fourth stage is a 13-mile stretch and the fifth stage is a 17-mile trail along scenic rural roads.
The 100-mile course traverses through isolated jungles, pine forests, small settlements and villages and across many streams and rivers. This year's race will be flagged off by GTA tourism department assistant director Deepak Sonar. Race director CS Panday said there are 21 male and 14 female participants from 10 countries in addition to national and local adventure racers this year.
"The race will also promote the 'Swacha Bharat Abhiyan' started by Prime Minister Narendra Modi by giving special attention to cleanliness. It will be a great boost for tourism in the hills," noted the director. He also said the Himalaya 100 Mile Race 2014 is the 24th edition and like always, aims to promote peace and unity. (HS)

Virgin offer £50 cashback on broadband
Virgin Media are playing hardball in an attempt to lure customers to them. They're doing this by announcing the return of a £50 cashback offer for new broadband bundle customers... but you'll have to be quick.
You've got 'til 14th of March to sign up for the ISP's Triple Play service, which is a package which includes broadband, telephone and TV. Sign up, and they've promised to bang your first bill with a credit of £50. If you want, you can combine this promotion with Virgin's six month discount broadband offer and free installation offers.
From then on, an entry package which combines broadband, TV and phone will cost £10 a month, increasing to £20 after the first six month discount period.
Will they sort out all the faff of telling everyone your new phone number and all that as well? Probably not.

- TeflonManVirgin Media?? Not ever again, even if THEY paid ME every month! How they didn't scoop the Worst Company in Britain Award is a mistery to me.
- PokeHerPeteThank God its not through Quidco, you'd never get it!
- zacspeedI got £165 last year through Quidco (and I DID get it)
- james d.wow plus £120 cashback today, thats a lotta moneys!!.
- klingeltonok - their offshore call centres aren't the most customer friendly, and rather alot of their processes are kinda rigid - however underneath it all is a pretty reliable cable internet service and a good TV package for less than sky. At least with vermin media, you will get close to the 10Meg they promise, if not over (not unheard of for me!)
- Another A.Why are you republishing another press release?
- zacspeedI've been with them about 8 months now & no probs so far. I get 9.8Mb every day - morning, noon & night. I suppose they're like every other provider out there, only showing their true colours when things start to go wrong.
- blablabla500Great! how do I sign up. Oh, thats right - I can't. Of course, if I lived on the opposite side of the street, and not in an apartment complex, then I would be fine. Sadly Virgin ignore me
- Gary M.My neighbour bought the triple play service last June and I live in a 3rd floor flat and I get free virgin broadband for the next 2 years! Beat that?
- PokeHerPete@zacspeed - But how many years did it take for you to get it?
- klingeltonlet's face it, the strongest selling point for vermin media is the very decent broadband. compared with most ADSL services, it really shits on them. I couldn't be happer with vermin media's service thus far. they seem to be on a par with all the other incompetant fuckwits around the country with regards to customer service at the moment.

Colomiers: Day One
Categories: News, Unemployed Man
Had a great first day here yesterday at the Festival BD Colomiers wearing full Ultra Chômeur costume! Really cool group of people here.
At the table, folks who had already read Les Adventures d'Ultra Chômeur came up and were very complimentary and awesome. Several people said it was a book that young people could really relate to (the young are the most effected by chômage here). The irony was that busloads of high school kids from local schools were there, and many of them approached me because they had an assignment to interview an English-speaking author. One of the questions was: Why did you write this book? I answered, "I wanted to tell the truth about the unemployment crisis."
I signed copies with the phrase, "Bon Courage!" and took many photos arm-in-arm with people (will post some soon).
On several occasions, when people told me their occupations, I showed them the corresponding character in the book, and they got a real kick out of that. A librarian stopped by (who looked like the brother of Jean Luc Picard) and I showed him Librarion from the Good Grief origin story. He liked the image of The Invisible Hand's Budget Axe laying waste to the school. He said the book would be added to his library immediately.
Day Two begins shortly. Time to get up, go to the elevator, press the 0 floor button (something we don't have in America), walk to the breakfast room, press the mocha button on the machine, and say the one French word I've gotten really good at saying: merci. That reminds me, I discovered that in Français, it apparently sounds strange to answer merci with your own merci, the way we do in English when someone says "Thank you" and you reply, "Thank YOU." There's no second word to emphasize. Maybe I can sort that out today: How to say thank you to a thank you.

To Bless Those Deserving
Chapter Seven
I really felt bad not knowing how to cook. I did all right at home, but there I had my spices in marked bottles and a recipe book. Jelnaya spoke of potential recipes for the large amount of meat we gained, but spoke of not knowing how to adjust for what ingredients she had. I believe that Mr. Eckles was expecting one of us ladies to cook, as he was the one that issued a comment about having to eat bad food.
Jelnaya asked, "Do you want to know how I cook my food?"
Mr. Eckles replied, "I would hope that some of the ladies in your family taught you how to do more than put it on the end of a stick and hold it over a fire."
"They tried, but it didn't work. Now, do you want to know how I cook my food?"
"Sure, Jelnaya. I mean, we left with rations. I thus won't go hungry if you completely make a mess of things."
Mr. Eckles began snickering as Jelnaya loaded all the meat on her horse. I think he knew what she was going to do. I however was clueless. Seeing Jelnaya disappear through a portal leaving Mr. Eckles and me all alone caused me to worry.
It really was less than a hour later that she returned with different parcels on her mount and her chewing on a hunk of some type of meat stuck on a dagger. "I believe that I cooked real well this time. Sometimes I don't do so well."
Mr. Eckles mounted his horse, then had it move over so he could look at what she was eating. "Let's see. Your process of cooking had our lesser dragon, basically reptile, meat change into pork?"
"You're obviously no judge of meat. It's raccoon."
"Raccoon?" I felt like agreeing with his less than positive expression, but Mr. Eckles then smiled. "Okay. I can deal with the magic of your style of cooking. Whatever, it looks good."
"I told you, it is."
I had to ask, "You are going to have us eat raccoon?"
Mr. Eckles said, "We are out in the middle of nowhere. You eat what you can to stretch out your rations for those periods when you cannot get anything to eat. Also, if you knew how to cook then we would not need to rely on Champion of Fergush taking on the culinary challenge."
"Out in the middle of nowhere? Where did she go to get cooked food?"
Jelnaya answered, "A camp where they had just had a successful coon hunt. Honestly, they were not too keen with eating coon either. They knew how to cook it, but considered the varmints pests. They gladly exchanged their wonderfully cooked raccoon for our lizard meat."
Mr. Eckles added, "Which they will probably now wonderfully cook."
"Probably. Come on, let us reach our camp."
It was actually a nice place for a camp. The pond was deep and clear. The water was also cold, but actually the coolness helped my aching muscles. Jelnaya dove in with me, but otherwise did nothing to challenge my privacy. She swam for a time, then used some soaps to wash herself and her hair. Getting out of the water, she basically shook herself dry before putting on a robe and heading back into camp.
It took time for me to comb most of the water out of my hair. I returned to the camp ready to eat anything. Having had to admit that I had heard of people eating raccoon, I did try some. It was good, and Jelnaya also had some bread. By the time I finished eating, I felt that I could work to put some style back into my hair before going to bed.
As I did what I could to manage my locks without a hair dryer, I heard Mr. Eckles say, "Go on to bed, Jelnaya. I can keep watch. Should anything else happen, I want you rested."
"I'm good, Steve."
"Listen, Jelnaya, I know your family. I even know the other side of the family. I have met Ferrigote on a number of occasions. If things are bad, I know that you will go the distance. Things are not bad, so I want you to get some rest to be ready when things go bad."
There was a pause before Jelnaya said, "Okay. I mean, I'm not expecting trouble anyway. The problem is, which is something both my Grandfather Terish and Great-uncle Ferrigote would consider important, is why not?"
"I'm a lawyer, Jelnaya. I consider things like that as well. Thus, you sleep on it, and I will think on it. We can compare notes later."
"Well, fill me in on what you have not told me, Steve. What about any threats? There is magic on mother's world. Surely some divination brought out the possible trouble."
I could not help but be very interested in the conversation. It took work to have me stay seated and not move closer. Luckily, neither were whispering. I thus was able to hold my position and listen to the conversation.
Mr. Eckles replied, "Doris' parents are cops, Jelnaya. As you said, we live in a universe with some magic. The police have learned some tricks in recognizing and dealing with the arcane. Considering how powerful Kallotech is, I had strings to pull in checking on matters like that. None."
"Father or one of his agents did not do anything?"
"This matter occurred to Doris before she contacted Kallotech. Still, Jelnaya, no."
I expected another question, but there was pause with Jelnaya simply making a comment. "There has to be a smell, Steve. Something should stink."
"I'm a lawyer, Jelnaya. If something stinks, I will be drawn to it like a fly. Now, go to bed and let me do the checking on aromas."
I heard some movement, then Jelnaya asked, "Are you really trying to get back with that nurse?"
"Yes. Really, Jelnaya, I had some good years with her. The second marriage did not work at all. It ended with me not wanting to go back on the prowl, and very interested in my kids. That is really why I am doing it. Yes, there is the hope to have some more good times, but I really just want time with my kids."
"Okay. For a lawyer, you're really a good man, Steve."
"Listen, you don't ruin my reputation and I won't ruin yours – okay?"
I could not say for certain from my position, but I believe Jelnaya kissed the man. Not in any sensual way, but just in a way to let him know that she appreciated him. That caused me to realize that I really did not know anything of these people. They seemed really decent. There were clearly things about them that justified the things my parents said about them, but they had lives, relationships, and personalities just like everyone else I knew. I could not say for certain, but I felt that I would not be as incriminating in my speech about the Dozzrines as my parents.
Jelnaya told me good night, then went to her gear. She had not set out a bedroll. As she did, I felt that she never intended to get any sleep. All I could think of was settling my muscles so I could relax for the night. Once Jelnaya had everything so she could lie down, she came to the fire and did some things. When she then turned to her bedroll, I had to ask her about what she did. What she told me I guess that I should have expected.
"I'm a Champion of Fergush. Besides the fight, there are little ostentatious prayers and such I need to do. Honestly, I have no shame of the guy, so feel that I speak his name and things about him enough. He is god however, and he wants things done a certain way. Whatever. I'm going to bed now."
"I hurt too much to go to bed."
"I would bet that you would just collapse into unconsciousness if you would lie down."
While I felt certain that I knew the answer, I had to ask, "You trust Mr. Eckles?"
"One thing you learn about my family and my father's business, there is a high degree of danger. Steve is high enough in the corporate ladder that he could cause trouble, but there are many in my family that have faced worse. Honestly, the thought of stepping back from Fergush's table to return from the dead in order to drag his screaming corpse to a really bad place actually feels me with joy."
From a distance came the voice of Mr. Eckles, "Go to bed, Jelnaya."
I heard her snicker, then she strode to her bedroll. I found that I liked her. She had an outwardly rough personality, but if you listened to her she was fun and easy to relate to. I found myself wishing that she had gone to the same school I did. As I snickered thinking back over some of the comments she made during the day, I heard the voice of Mr. Eckles.
"Why are you still up?"
"I still hurt. Waiting for the medication to kick in."
"It won't kick in, Doris. You are not in anything resembling normal pain. Those are your muscles speaking. You just need to lay down. Trust me. Your mind will shut down as your body works on adjusting to the work you had it perform."
I did not want to challenge him, but he was not a doctor. "You done this for a while?"
"Yes, Doris. Magic is not a dark room lit by candles occupation. Old man Kallespry basically treated it that way, but the Dozzrines have much better understanding of the arcane. When Venicht took over Kallotech, the whole attitude on magic and arcane weaponry changed. The old men in my position did not like the new policies, or the travel. I took to both, which is where I started my rise in the company. Machines cannot operate in differing physics, but organisms can adjust. You have to learn to ride a horse. I went through what you are going through, and have seen many others do the same. Now, go to bed."
Again I felt the answer was glaringly obvious, but I just had to check. "You've known Jelnaya for a while?"
"Yes. She was always an active child, and always taken to magic. She was a good kid however. Doted on her Grandfather Terish, and just would not relax when at the family estate. Worked, worked, worked both at magic and in learning to fight. That is how I first met her. I would be late studying for some court case. Since I deal with arcane law, she and I happened to have similar interests. She caught sight of some of the texts I was perusing and stopped to chat. At first it was the library, but then she would be tapping on the windows to my room. I came to know Jelnaya pretty well. She then started traveling on her own, and I lost track of her, but I would chance asking Venicht about her. Like any father, he loved bragging on his children. That is how I stayed aware of what was going on in her life."
I did start moving to my bedroll as I said, "Well, thank you for what you are doing for me."
"Honestly, Doris, take what Venicht said very seriously. You are a local kid, and you have kept your nose clean. I don't care what your parents told you. We have families and kids as well. Instead of berating those living other lives, we preach that we ar
Attempting to save face, I replied, "My parents just do not like the death your weapons cause."
"Death our weapons cause? Listen, Doris, our weapons are meaningless. That girl traveling with us could wipe out our entire city with a fork, and her grandfather, who she wants to be like, would not even need the fork. When she mentioned coming back from the dead to drag my physical body with my soul inside to Hell, she was not joking. It is not the weapons that cause the death, but the mentality to use them in a certain manner. Your parents do not know what they are talking about. I am scared that you are going to learn that. I hope that you can deal with it. Now, go to bed."
That was not the reply I expected at all. I actually felt fear as I lied down. While the words might have scared me, I had a feeling deep within me that what Mr. Eckles and Jelnaya said was correct. As they expected, I collapsed into unconsciousness.
And Doris learns more during the travel.

2015 Scion TC
The 2015 Scion TC is refreshment on the market. This vehicle might not be the best performer in the class, but one thing is making it different – it is fun to drive. Performance and engine are average, but it doesn't make it less interesting. This coupe, with new gearbox, delivers quicker downshifts and better acceleration. McHenry-area Toyota dealer will be first to get this vehicle, and it is announced that all enthusiastic will be able to go there and try new 2015 Scion TC. Not many changes from the current model are expected, but few additions will be made to boost its interior.
2015 Scion TC changes
Styling of the 2015 Scion TC will be modern, with bold features, unlike the looking of the cars from same class these days. The 2015 TC will take angular accents and details derived from high-performance luxury cars and in combination with standard and unique Scion's flair, will make this car special. For 2015 year, this car will look more sporty and aggressive, probably because of its redesigned fascia. Exterior will take minor changes, and we expect more upgrades inside. Cabin will also be styled sporty, with sport seat and flat-bottomed steering wheel. To finish complete feeling, there is new cockpit dash design. Even if 2015 TC looks like some of the race cars, at the end, it is really safe and versatile compact car. There will be enough head- and leg- room on the back seats, and rear door will be easy to open, which will bring less difficulty in packing and unloading cargo.
2015 Scion TC engine
The 2015 Scion TC will be equipped with 2.5L four-cylinder engine. That drivetrain will be capable of producing 179 hp and 173 lb-ft of torque. The engine is mated with six-speed manual gearbox and six-speed auto because is an option. The performance is good for this vehicle, and numbers say – 2015 Scion TC will sprint 0-60 mph in 7.3 seconds with manual and 8.3 sec with auto transmission. Its EPA fuel economy rates will be 23/31 for city/highway drive. Fuel economy is above the average for vehicles in same class. Also, suspensions are upgraded, which will bring better handling and cornering.
2015 Scion TC release date
It still hasn't been confirmed, but arrival of the 2015 TC is expected until the end of the year. Price is still unknown.

Our approach to physics and astronomy is experiential and hands-on. You work in small groups in labs and workshops to understand the laws and physical models describing interactions involving matter and energy.
Physics is taught at all levels and with many other disciplines, including animation, music, sports, sustainability studies, and philosophy. If you're embarking on an academic pathway in the sciences, you can obtain a foundation in university-level physics that also include calculus and chemistry or computer science.
At the advanced level, you can learn physics and astronomy in integrated programs that include applied mathematics and advanced physical chemistry.
How to Choose Your Path
You'll choose what you study to earn a Bachelor's degree that's meaningful to you. Some students decide their programs as they go, while others chart their course in advance.
Aim for both breadth and depth; explore fields that may be related or that may seem very distant. You'll be surprised at what you discover.
If you're new to college, look for programs where you can gain a foundation, build key skills, and broaden your knowledge (FR only, FR-SO, or FR-SR).
If you already have a foundation in this field, look for programs with intermediate or advanced material (SO-SR, JR-SR, or FR-SR). These programs may include community-based learning and in-depth research. Some of these programs have specific prerequisites; check the description for details.
Talk to an academic advisor to get help figuring out what coursework is best for you.

As part of my new year's plans, I'm finishing up old projects and so far so good. I started refashioning this shirt back in October. I don't know what was wrong with me while making this shirt. All I wanted to do was recut it for a slimmer fit. I've done it a few times before but I guess it was so long ago I just didn't remember my exact method. So it took lots of adjusting and I still made probably the ugliest bumpiest hem ever. BUT, it's done. :) And I do like the athletic shape of the hem. Just don't look too closely.
How are your New Year resolutions going so far? Are you doing any refashioning? Any other crafty resolutions?

What on Earth was Canadian Heritage Minister Melanie Joly thinking when she unveiled a much-touted creative industries policy last week that essentially treats Canadian culture as a wholly owned subsidiary of Netflix, the American digital streaming giant?
Indeed, what is Prime Minister Justin Trudeau thinking in backing up a huge Netflix exemption from collecting sales taxes that almost every Canadian business (including Netflix's Canadian competitors) have to charge?
And that's on top of an equally unfair, and indefensible, decision to exempt Netflix from a tax that rival distributors, like networks and cable companies, must pay into a government fund to support Canadian content production.
Ms. Jolie's defence of this discrimination is that she has persuaded Netflix to spend at least $500 million in the next five years producing content in Canada that will be streamed around the globe and boost our cultural exports.
But the shine has quickly fallen off this over-spun deal. There are no spending guarantees and it's not clear Netflix wasn't spending this much already. The commitment is certainly less than the taxes Netflix will avoid on Canadian sales, estimated at $750 million a year and growing. Ms. Joly is being roasted in Quebec for failing to ensure francophone production and for making it harder for Quebec to get Netflix to remit provincial sales tax. On Tuesday, the Quebec legislature voted unanimously to ensure foreign firms selling online services are paying Quebec sales tax.
Quebec is fighting the good fight here. Ottawa has no business undermining provincial value-added taxes without consultation. And letting this hugely profitable company escape sales tax just for the favour of doing business here is absurd. Its business is no more a special benefit than any firm's business. So much for tax fairness.
It's also nonsense for Mr. Trudeau and Ms. Joly to argue that, by exempting Netflix from existing taxes that competitors pay, they are keeping a promise to avoid new taxes on the middle class. In fact, other taxpayers will now have to carry the cost of Ottawa putting more money into the media production fund to compensate for a declining cable business and the Netflix exemption from contributions.
Canadians should expect more of their government than star-struck genuflection to Netflix and other U.S. digital giants. The government is acting like Netflix, Facebook and Google are sovereign states with whom it negotiates economic treaties, while Canadian firms are just subject taxpayers who must swallow whatever policy, fair on not, is fobbed on them. To make it even worse, Netflix was a much better treaty negotiator than Ms. Joly.
