IT WAS 1.30! its like theres no such thing as school anymore, or education! i learn about the importance about having a good education at my course, so this stuff kinda pisses me off. ha.

05 June 09Today was spent running some errands. I got some things done, and also had time to do a cardio workout in the gym in my building. I was talking to a friend, who told me about a friend of his who lost a bunch of weight. She had to have surgery to remove the excess skin that was on her body. Then I started to think about my own body. I've heard of people having cosmetic surgery, but is this something on my horizon? I noticed that I ate more today than I usually do. I was feeling lonely. I was angry because of the way I felt I was being treated at a local store. I thought the woman was condescending. I know that I am supposed to find other ways to handle these feelings, today was just a day where I chose differently. I've been having headaches, which has been hard for me, especially when I try to fall asleep. It's hard when I get into that lonely space, because it seems like I'll be lonely forever. Anyway, I hope that you are having a nice visit with your family in Florida. 6 Jun 2009 Today was not a good day food wise. I chose to have two hamburgers at In-n-Out with my cousin. I know that it was not the best choice, but I ended up going over to see him at the last minute and did not pack a snack. By the time we got there I was starving. What with feeling not so great the day before and feeling nervous about an event I am going to this evening I tried to "white-knuckle" it at the burger joint, but I failed. I came home after being in the East Bay for most of the afternoon and had a TJ's popcorn. I know that there will be blips on this road. I am sorry that I disappointed you. I want to figure out what is eating me right now. I hope when I get home from this event I can do some writing. I know it has to do with feeling lonely and scared, and figuring out new ways of handling those feelings without food. I have to let go and move forward, but I feel stuck at the moment. 07 Jun 09 Today I got up early and went out to enjoy the beautiful day. I am doing OK, but still feeling bad about my recent food choices. This morning I was able to have my usual breakfast, but I thought I could get home and have lunch on my own before going to Israel in the Gardens. But I never did get home, and I ended up going out with a friend to a Vietnamese restaurant and then went over to my cousin's friend's home where they cooked a pretty nice dinner. There is nothing worse than still carrying shame around when it's time to learn, let go and move forward. I feel like I need to re-tune where I am at right now. I did a bit of writing about what my triggers are, and know that I need to continue expressing those feelings on paper and sharing them with you as well as with my therapist. I am on the right path, I just think that I took a wrong turn. I hope that you are having a nice time in Florida, and I'm looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday. 10 Jun 2009 Thanks for a good meeting today. I am feeling OK. Still dealing with the headaches, and will call my doctor in the morning about my meds. I ended up having coffee with some friends of mine in the afternoon. Then I came home and went to the gym in the building and did some cardio. I got a copy of the pictures that Billy sent. My word, I've changed a bit, huh? I posted on my Facebook profile that I've lost 80 pounds. I've got a lot of support, and I am grateful for that. I just have to remember that it's there for me. I'm working out with Billy in the morning. I hope that the rest of your week goes well. I am grateful for your love and support. 11 Jun 09: I did something today that I thought I could never do. When I arrived at the gym for my session with Billy, I did my normal stretches. When I was done, Billy said to get my things, we were going on a field trip. I thought to myself, "OK, where are we going?" So we get into Billy's SUV and head downtown. We pull into the garage at the Four Seasons, and I'm thinking that we're going to Sports Club LA. No, we walked out of the parking garage and across the street from my apartment building when I realize where we were going: I was going to do the stairs in my building, all 84 flights. We dropped off my stuff at my apartment, and we started up the stairs. All 84 flights! It took about 20 minutes or so. I took breaks, had my water and for the last 6 stories I did double stairs. When we finished, I took Billy up to the rooftop to show him the Sky Club. It's a very cool spot, with cabanas and tables, and an unbelievable view! Then we had iced tea at my place and then I walked Billy back over to SportsClub LA, where Billy gave me a tour. That place is enormous, and quiet,(no music playing). The rest of the day went pretty well. Food was OK. 12 Jun 09: I started the day at 7:30AM with some breakfast. My friend Andrew and I went to Soup Freaks for lunch. I had the soup and turkey sandwich. We then came back over to my place for hot tea and conversation. For the past couple of days I've been taking naps in the afternoon. I took one yesterday and today. I then had a snack before doing some cardio in the gym in my building. I wanted to make sure to burn at least 300 calories. (which I did) I had a POH meal and a salad for dinner. I'm going to a benefit with my cousin tomorrow. I'll tell you all about it then. 13 Jun 2009 I just had a very upsetting experience with my cousin at this very high brow event. Basically I thought most of the people there were white snobby Episcopalians. My cousin thought I painted the whole lot with a big brush. When my cousin informed me that he paid $50 for my ticket and that he, my cousin, was getting upset, I told him that I was getting mad and I left. I took the bus right to Safeway where I bought some 30% off steaks weighting .87 pounds. I ate those and also bought a box of Entenmans donuts. I have not eaten them yet. I called people that are on my call list but everyone is out for the evening or not answering the phone. I thought of calling you but that was not part of our agreement and did not want to disturb your weekend with my drama. I'm still angry about it. And the only way I can think of to calming myself is 8 donuts. I have listened to my cousin and have been there for him, but when I have some issue come up he thinks I'm crazy. Not sure what I am going to do with the donuts.

The day you realize you're a writer
"Where did it start, this bizarrely complex meshing of my sense of self-worth with my ability to express myself in writing? I don't remember any classic "aha" moment, but I do know that as far back as my earliest school years, I hit on a pleasure unlike any I'd known when I wrote papers or "creative" pieces for my teachers. Hunched over my school binder, I had my first sensations of words coalescing into sentences I liked." -- Sven Birkerts

On 13/Nov/42, the Brazilian Corvette Cananeia rescued 23 survivors off Fernando de Noronha Is. Other 22 survivors were rescued by one Brazilian Destroyer when performing her last day of tests, two days after the sinking of veerhaven and landed them at Natal in the following day.
At 22.41 hours on 1 Oct 1942 the unescorted Achilles (Master Klaas de Jong) was hit on port side aft by one torpedo from U-202 while steaming on a zigzag course at 8 knots about 110 miles southeast of Trinidad. The explosion ignited the ammunition for the stern gun and blew off the stern completely, killing one of the six British gunners (the ship was armed with one 4in, two 20mm and four machine guns) and seriously injuring another.
The second engineer and two crew members were also wounded. After the crew abandoned ship in a motorboat and a lifeboat, she was hit on starboard side amidships by a coup de grâce at 23.01 hours. The second explosion caused the ship to break up and sink rapidly. The survivors were not questioned by the Germans. The motorboat then took the other boat in tow and made landfall in the evening of the next day at Moruga, Trinidad.

Ice, Ice, Baby
The Game Ready has a compartment where you put ice water, and it pumps the liquid through a tube that circulates it through a sleeve surrounding the injury, keeping it nicely cool. Medical technology has certainly been improving. The control panel shows the temperature of the water and lets you set how long you want it to run. The only thing it doesn't do is carry itself to the sink to dump out the melted ice and replace it with new cubes, which is kind of a heavy and messy process.
The whole family loves to solve problems, so everyone got into the plan. My dad suggested scooping out the water, which eliminated the hauling/lifting problem. My mom brought rubber gloves, which were key because dealing extensively with ice water gets painful to the hands. SwingDaddy thought that maybe we could freeze small containers of water, which would be easier to replace.
In the end, I bought a dozen 8-ounce bottles of water, poured out a bit from each one to leave room for expansion, and froze the whole set. Now I just don a glove, retrieve the bottles containing the melted water from the Game Ready compartment, replace them with frozen bottles, and put the original set back in the freezer. We're rotating though three sets of bottles, which means the fresh ones are frozen solid and last for a couple of hours. It's a tidy and pleasing system, which could only be made better by not having an injury in the first place.
Q-ster also contributed by bringing his Leapster to set by the bedside so that his dad would have entertainment, as well as doing some fetching and carrying. Buster helps by being cute. The first week has gone well, and we're all looking forward to when SwingDaddy can walk without crutches again.
(No disclosures to make: The Game Ready is a rental for which we're paying. This FTC stuff is kind of tiresome, but I guess it's better to be safe than sorry.)

Should e-mail this to Game-Ready, it's almost a patentable idea.
great problem solving! I use the same technique for the Burning Man cooler, and drink the refreshingly cold water as the ice melts in the bottles.

The FTC disclosure made me laugh. The idea of a mommy blogger being recruited to pump a device like this is sort of funny. Can you imagine?
"My kids give me SUCH a headache. And a knee ache, too. Thankfully, Game-Ready is here to help!"

Amber - You're brilliant! They should have a headache model with a headwrap.
- mayberry said...
I would buy the headache model in a heartbeat!

I've always just used bags of frozen peas as ice packs. They work beautifully, and since I hate peas, no fear of accidentally eating them (after constantly un/refreezing).
Hope his knee heals quickly. I had open knee surgery once and woke up on a perpetual motion machine. Oh the joys... not.

I have come to the conclusion that a whole new brand of evil has been unleashed on the world when almost every week you have innocent children being shot in one of the few places they should feel safe, their school. There have always been bullies in schools. Even back in the 70s, I was picked on--even once beat up--in the semi-urban public school I attended...the big difference was that the weapon was words, a fist, or a stick to do the damage. I'm not justifying that, but it now seems mild compared to what the hell is happening now.
I'm sick of hearing these stories. Literally sick. As I listen to the news about the little girls in the Amish community who were shot execution style by a grown male (I refuse to call him a man), my stomach is turned. All I can think about is my little girl, and wondering what she will have to face in the next 10 years.
It pains me to know that I will probably have to teach my daughter how to react if someone busts into a classroom with a gun. It has come to that.
What has caused this? Parents neglecting their kids? Hours of video games desensitizing kids to violence and death? The daily reports of suicide missions by psycho religious zealots? Blood and guts on TV and in the movies? Depression, anger, and despair?
I submit to you that there is one common denominator to all of the above: the root is evil. The only way to overcome evil is with good. Therefore, my prayer tonight is that God will comfort those who have had to go through the worst day of their lives today, and that somehow we will have the determination needed to fight back for our kids with as much GOOD as we can possibly muster.

Amen. People wanna call it other stuff, but you have hit the exact bottom line.
- Jodi said...
I am speechless, Geege. I don't know how you can begin to explain to your child that school is no longer a safe place.
Sadly, it's times like these that I am glad that I don't have any children.
I not only wonder how to explain it to my kids when the time comes, but I think about how to keep the kids in my classroom safe. It scares the heck out of me.
I wish I had the answers.

Staten Island Motorcycle Accident Leaves Two Men With Serious Injuries
Posted on Apr 28, 2010
A Staten Island accident involving a car and a motorcycle leaves two men with serious injuries after the vehicles collide on the Martin Luther King Jr. Expressway. The incident took place at approximately 1:00 PM on Saturday afternoon, April 24, 2010.
According to authorities, a four-door blue Dodge Neon, traveling southbound, lost control and struck the right guardrail. The force of the impact sent the sedan back across the road and into the left guardrail causing the Dodge to flip over. That is when a motorcyclist riding a Harley Davidson, unable to stop, slammed into the car between exits 12 and 10E.
"It was just horrific," said Jose Rodriguez, who witnessed the incident.
Rescue crews transported two male victims to the hospital where they were treated for serious injuries. The extent of their injuries as well as their identities were not immediately made known.
The Staten Island motorcycle accident is still under investigation by local authorities. Police have yet to determine the reason why the driver of the Dodge lost control of his vehicle and hit the guardrail.
Accidents involving motorcycles can be serious. Our thoughts go out to both victims as we with them both a speedy recovery during this difficult time.

All Films.All Above Board.NOW INCLUDES TV SHOWS & TV LISTINGS
Early 1970s pseudo-documentary from acclaimed writer-director Peter Watkins. A group of activists opt to be punished for their crimes by spending 72 hours in the desert instead of serving a prison sentence with a minimum term of seven years. However, the prisoners' stint in the desert proves difficult as they must travel 53 miles in three days with little provisions to gain their freedom. Their situation is made worse by the armed National Guardsmen escorting them who become increasingly aggressive as the hours roll by.

Why did you reject out of hand the claims of the Mad Revisionist? Do you perhaps have some personal stake in the matter of the Irish Conspiracy? Coming from a Jewish background myself, I can well appreciate such a personal stake. I myself was once thoroughly a part of the Programme.
My Jewish relatives explained to me that it has been quite an effort to co-ordinate the testimony of hundreds of thousands of "Holocaust survivors," and their co-conspirators, the Soviet, British and American armies (who "liberated" the so-called "death camps".) Why, I have many relatives who have informed me, "six million didn't die, they just went out for pizza."
Your exposure of this Conspiracy is an effort which should, I believe, be lauded with a Nobel Peace Prize; for by showing that in fact very few people have ever been deliberately killed by anyone, you will heal the rifts between the races, and subvert the Conspiracy and its nefarious ends.
Nonetheless, I do wonder why you fail to even consider the possibility of the truth of the Irish Potato Famine Fabrication Conspiracy. I have examined this carefully, and I note the same level of historical analysis being used in the articles of your journal, and that of the Mad Revisionist.
I also seek to know the names of those who've been imprisoned in Europe - by your account - for their expression of Revisionist views. I'm a member of Amnesty International, and I believe that such people would definitely qualify as "prisoners of conscience"; I feel sure AI would campaign to free these innocent questioners of Conspiracy.
I remain, sir, your Humble Servant &c,
Kyle Schuant, former Grand Mazeltov in the ZOG
PS. What is "informal peer review," anyway? I often sit at a bar, and with one arm leaning on the bar holding a beer, and the other one waving about energetically, I hold forth on my views. Then my mates tell me I'm a dickhead. Is this "informal peer review"?

I never talk about politics outside of my family, but during election years people often let their views get into the conversation. Then I'm stuck with hard knots in my stomach concerning friends and relatives that I usually get along with. There are so many good reasons to be annoyed at people, why do we have to add silly reasons, choosing sides in the game of politics and wishing the worst on each other for nothing that we have actually done or ever will do. I wish I could move to another place during election years, and just come back when it's all over.
I don't know how it is for people of other types, but for an NF, who wants to feel in harmony with the human race, politics can cause a very painful disconnect from half of humanity. I have been trying my whole life to find some way to keep the good feelings toward my friends and relatives going through election years.
There is one thing that has helped a lot in recent years. It's an insight I heard from Craig Rider, CEO of the consulting firm, the Rider Group, and an ENFP. I was interviewing him for an issue of The Type Reporter with the theme, "Our Favorite Type Breakthroughs." I loved his insight so much that I made it the last paragraph of the last issue of The Type Reporter…
we asked people to get into type-alike groups and start writing down how
they would describe their ideal community. The Fs came up with things
like "inclusion," "beauty" and "diversity." The Ts came up with things
like "good infrastructure," "solid financial situation" and "low crime
noticed however, that after awhile, the Fs started writing down
Thinking-related things, and the Ts started writing down Feeling-related
things. You could draw a line at the point where they started to switch
over to the other side.
I had a big breakthrough that day. I realized that most of our conversations take place above the line, where we're talking about our priorities, and that's why we start digging trenches and getting into arguments. If you let people go for about five minutes more however, it becomes clear that they all want the same list of things; they just differ on what is most important. If we could remember that, it would make it a lot easier to keep listening to each other, and problems would get solved a lot faster.
When I showed this to my husband, John, he loved it too because he's often experienced it in his consulting work. "We tell people they are in 'violent agreement,'" John said. "They really agree, but they can't let themselves see that because they're passionate about their own priorities. They need a facilitator to put their ideas on the board and point out how they are both important to the organization's goals, and to focus the group on how they can do both.
"What it boils down to is that people need to acknowledge each other's points of view. It's as simple as that. If people could just preface their opinions with something like, 'I agree that what you are saying is important because….' the other person would feel that they were heard, and be more able to listen to other ideas."
I don't use Rider's insight to calm a group, but I use it to calm myself. When I feel myself reacting like Pavlov's dog to political differences, I try to remind myself that we all have the same items on our list for an Ideal America, but different things on the top half. The people from the "other" party, so angry and certain that the world is going to hell, are protecting things I also want to preserve, but I am not inspired to take care of myself. If I can get past the nastiness, I can see through to a natural order, very much like the type theory, where all of the work is divided and all of the work is taken care of. It's a much better place to spend an election year.
People Never Change, but Boy, Do People Change
Posted by Susan Scanlon in Basics of Type , Conflict , Personal Growth , Relationships on April 24, 2015
I went back to my hometown recently for my nephew's wedding, and I was in the company of my ten brothers and sisters. I hadn't seen most of them in about five years, so there was a lot of catching up to do.
After the wedding, when I was back home, there were two thoughts that kept popping into my head. One was…
"People never change."
The other was…
"Boy, have we changed."
The first thought, "People never change" kept coming to me because it seemed that all of my brothers and sisters had the same virtues and vices they had when they were little kids and we were all running around that big house together. My ISTJ sister is still entertaining or annoying us with her many opinions. My ESFJ sister is still comforting or annoying us with her motherly attentions. My ISFP brother is still charming or annoying us with his gentle spirit. You get the picture, so I won't go through all ten of them. All I can say is that I kept feeling déjà vu. I'd been there before.
It disturbs me to realize that people don't change, because I'm an INFJ. My greatest joy in life is trying out new ideas for personal growth. The type theory was one of those ideas, so was learning to be a good listener, to express my needs without anger, to be self-loving, attuned to the present and content with the life I have. I feel like I have gone through tremendous changes in my life, and I'm a completely different person than I was when I was a kid.
But the truth is, I was relating to my brothers and sisters in exactly the same way I did when I was a kid, playing the role of the wise counselor or the person with big ideas for improving the world. Sometimes it was welcome, other times it was not, but I was dismayed at seeing how little I had changed.
In the type community, we talk of "type development." We make it our goal to practice the strengths of our type only when it's appropriate and to be flexible enough to call on something else when it's needed. I love that goal, and the pursuit of it takes us to exciting places.
Let's not delude ourselves, however, that our personalities are like soft clay that we can stretch and shape at will. I'm beginning to realize they are more like great hunks of granite, and although we may be able to make tiny chips around the edges, 99% of it remains exactly the same.
That brings me to the second thought that kept coming into my head after being with my family, which is, "Boy, have we changed." Yes, we all had the same virtues and vices, but there was something very different in our gathering. There was a peace, an acceptance of each other that had not been present in any of the gatherings before this.
You know the prayer: "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."
I think that after five or six decades of trying to change each other, we finally had the wisdom to know that none of us were ever really going to change, and the serenity to say, "So be it."
People talk about growing older only in terms of its bad side - the weakening body. They don't talk about the fact that there is also a mind growing stronger, a mind that can finally accept both sides of people, and best of all, both sides of itself.
Different or Difficult?
Posted by Jean Kummerow in Basics of Type , Conflict , Learning , Personal Growth , Relationships on April 10, 2015
We know that personality type helps us realize that people aren't
really trying to drive us crazy – they just see the world in a different
But does that excuse some behaviors that really are difficult, even though they are different?
And isn't it sometimes true that a strength can really become a liability when overused?
I have a friend who is an ENFJ. She is so good at making people comfortable in her presence and in getting under their skin to their essence. This is quite helpful to her as a divorce attorney. However, when a friend visited with her recently, she left feeling like she had been with a "vibe sucker." She felt absolutely drained. It wasn't a matter of a different style; those behaviors became difficult.
As an ESTJ, I value efficiency and can be pretty good at attaining it in many things that I do. When I am driving somewhere with someone else who is not efficient in their routing, I become difficult. I offer unsolicited advice and occasionally even unsolicited criticism.
An INFP friend was so focused on his values that he cut off valuable allies who could help him realize his dreams of creating an egalitarian community. He became difficult to work with.
Years ago, my friend, the late Susan Brock, came up with a STOP model to help us identify when type was being misused – and to stop it. Here it is with my modifications:
S – Stop strutting your type. Yes, you can be proud of who you are -- some call it being psychologically patriotic. But you're not the only one who does things well. And at some point in the future you're bound to have a need to try other approaches that may not be natural ones, but nonetheless are what will be needed at the time.
And even more to the point, you're bound to meet someone of your exact same type who might appear to be a complete jerk, turkey, wally (or whatever label you want to use). Learning to stop the strutting will likely save you some embarrassment in the future.
T – Talking about everyone's type. This is about labeling and gossiping, which at times turn can into statements like, "what do you expect…she's just a Thinking type! She doesn't care about people and what she said in that last meeting just proves it." No one likes being gossiped about. And stereotyping is not what type is all about!
O – Obsessing about type. Type doesn't explain everything. Putting the type model on every little thing that people say and do just doesn't work. Not all ESTJs love chocolate (or maybe they do!).
P – Pushing tasks on people because of type. This is the one where we might say, "Oh you're the Extravert; you should give the oral report." Or "Sensing…let's see, that means you should take the notes at the meeting." We all need skills in a variety of areas. To not encourage the Introvert to give the report or the Intuitive to take notes unnecessarily deprives them of a chance for development.
Let's try to recognize when different is different and when difficult is difficult and not get them mixed up.
Watching Feeling in Action
Posted by Jean Kummerow in Basics of Type , Learning , Personal Growth , Physical Health on February 10, 2015
To the uninitiated (in type), I suppose this title is a bit risqué. I
am not talking about being a voyeur, but about the wonderful display of
the Feeling Function.
Let me begin with a slight digression. I recently started downhill skiing again – I was never very good at it, but my beau is and loves it, so using my Feeling function to create harmony I go skiing in the Colorado Rockies once a year. We typically stay in an apartment with another couple, Kathy and Dave.
Each morning, I watched Kathy go off to the slopes with her backpack. I asked why she did so and what was in it.
She gave a one word answer…"Raymond!" And then told me the story. One day several years ago, Kathy was going up the chair lift with a friend. Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a young man lying on the snow at the side of a steep mogul run. (Moguls are mounds of hard compacted snow that take much skill to maneuver around.) Kathy is a nurse and she is a Feeling type. She and her friend skied down to the young man as quickly as they could.
He was wearing only cotton sweat pants and a sweatshirt with no gloves or hat. He was unresponsive, clearly suffering from hypothermia. Kathy sent her friend to get the ski patrol there are quickly as possible.
Kathy said to him, "Hi, my name is Kathy and I'm a nurse. What's your name?"
He mumbled, "Raymond."
Kathy said, "Raymond, you need to do exactly as I say. I'm going to lie down in the snow with my jacket open. You are to lie on top of me and put your hands between my legs. You are suffering from hypothermia and I need to get you warmed up quickly."
Raymond did as he was told. Kathy kept up a conversation with him including, "You may tell your friends whatever you wish about this."
Think about it…how many young men are invited into such a position with an older woman and encouraged to talk about it!!
Just then, Kathy's husband, Dave, was riding up the ski lift with a friend. The friend looked over and said, "Isn't that Kathy lying on her back with a young man on top of her?" They skied over.
The ski patrol was slow in coming but eventually they arrived. They took the young man down the hill, reading him the "riot act" telling him they always had extra clothing to loan out and that he could have died.
As a thank you, ski patrol gave Kathy certificates for complimentary hot chocolate drinks for her entire party at the local ski chalet.
At the end of the day, Kathy and her party walked in to have their drinks. When they did so, they received a standing ovation from other skiers who had seen the drama.
Then some of the women from the honoring party came over, and said, "Our husbands want to know where you're skiing tomorrow. They think their hands will be really cold!" Kathy just laughed. But now she carries a small warming blanket in her backpack to help the future Raymonds.
Kathy used her Feeling function (and her nursing skills) to make Raymond comfortable and she is continually invited to tell that story, forming a bond with others who join the skiing group each year. Her story draws us together. What a wonderful use of Feeling!!
Dear Type Advisor
Posted by Susan Scanlon in Basics of Type , Conflict , Personal Growth , Relationships on January 26, 2015
Every day, after lunch, I read all of the advice columns in the Washington Post. I enjoy it when a columnist can see through conflicting thoughts and feelings to the ones that are most important, and then guide people to be their best self.
Since I'm having an interpersonal dilemma right now where I'm trying to sort through conflicting thoughts and feelings, I pretended that I wrote to an advice columnist. Then I pretended that I wrote the reply. Oddly enough, it helped.
Dear Type Advisor,
My dear friend, a cheerful, loving ESFP, is having a lot of trouble in her family. She and her daughter had a quarrel before the holidays, and now the daughter is not speaking to her. At around the same time, my friend also quarreled with her husband and walked out on him for several nights.
I arranged to have lunch with my friend, but she never talked about the quarrel with the daughter. Instead, she told me that her husband is systematically trying to make her think she is losing her mind. He is stealing things from her and replacing them several days later in a different place from where she had left them. When he denied it, she told him she didn't believe him, and he got so angry he chased her down the hall. She felt she had to leave for a "safe house," a place she wasn't even going to reveal to me.
I couldn't believe I was hearing this because my friend is notorious for losing things. It's something everyone has been teasing her about for years. The husband is very close to the daughter, but why he would want to make his wife feel crazy was beyond me.
I'm feeling torn by so many thoughts. I love being around this woman, because she always makes me feel wanted and admired. I've known the family for 15 years, and from what I saw, she did the same for her husband and children. She would light up when they came in the room, and was always 100% on their side. Her daughter was her close friend, and her husband was good-natured and supportive. It really hurts to see them all demonizing each other.
The questions I'm asking myself are: Is there anything I can do to
help? Should I even try? Is my friend going crazy, even though she
sounds completely lucid? Is her husband really trying to make her crazy,
even though I've never seen him do an unkind thing? Is she lying to me,
her best friend? Should I continue a relationship with someone who
would lie to me, or lie about her husband?
An NF wanting to help
Dear NF wanting to help,
You might find some perspective on your ESFP friend in the book Survival Games Personalities Play, by Eve Delunas. It sounds like your friend feels very threatened by her daughter's anger, and that the husband is siding with the daughter. It's possible that your friend feels backed into a corner, and is playing some SP "survival games" to protect her ego, whether or not she is aware of it.
By putting the spotlight on her husband, she might be distracting everyone from the possibility that she did anything wrong in her mothering. She might be using words like "safe house" because it shocks people, something SPs like to do. Also, it immediately makes her look like an innocent victim instead of a villain, a role that she feels her daughter and husband are trying to force her into.
Some SPs who feel threatened can be great con artists, and they are especially good at conning NFs, so be careful there. It won't do much good to confront her about it, because she will probably continue evading responsibility.
The best thing you can do is to try and make her ego feel less threatened, so she can stop playing defensive games. Don't address the stories she is telling you. Just tell her all the good things you witnessed her do over the years, as a mother and a wife. Hopefully, it will help her recover her equilibrium, and deal with her problems more wisely.
Beyond that, you should resist that NF desire to rush in and save people. Watch instead as they save themselves, even if it may not be the way you would want them to.
Editors note: Another good resource is CAPT's Building Better Relationships, a "Type for Life" guide that provides type-specific insights for couples, with descriptions of the effects of each of your MBTI preferences on your relationship.

New Books on the Shelf
The Librarian of Auschwitz, written by Antonio Iturbe, is based on the real-life experience of Auschwitz prisoner Dita Kraus. Dita is only 14 years old when she and her mother and father are taken prisoner by the Nazis. While adjusting to the horrific terror within the concentration camp, Dita is approached by Jewish leader Freddy Hirsch. Mr. Hirsch asks Dita to take charge of the eight precious books the prisoners have managed to sneak past the guards. She agrees and therefore becomes the librarian of Auschwitz. This incredible story of a girl who risked her life to keep the magic of books alive during the Holocaust will be shelved in Teen Historical.

Can Lose Weight With Running
Start walking, gradually add running, and build by no more than 10% per week.
Exercise will benefit all areas of your body and improvements will appear as you progress. By keeping a log of your exercise routine, you will be able to see a progression of your improved physical fitness over time. Exercise that has the most benefit for decreasing cancer risk is probably that done at medium to vigorous levels. The benefits of physical exercise are tremendous, but the American population has become sedentary. Physical exercise need not be an backbreaking or difficult chore — it can be fun, stimulating and provide great moments for families to not only exercise together but to talk and share other important aspects of their lives.
Running can minimize the odds of everything from the common cold to cancer. Your toughness will increase. Runners World magazine is a great resource and the online version can be accessed. The Chicago marathon website is one of the best that I have seen provide information, running schedules , information on running shoes and running tips for the beginner runner , route maps with inclines, water stops, energy drink stops, spectator and cheering squad stands and locations, expected weather and other information.
However, there are some dangers especially if you have been on extreme diets recently. Runners who attempt to reduce their body fat percentages to life-threatening levels run the risk of injury, illness, infertility, and at the very least, decreased performance. You may experience performance problems if you've been dieting religiously to lose weight.
When you exercise, do it at least five days a week. If you are able to make it seven days a week, it's even better. No matter whether you run five days or seven, remember to make it enjoyable. And if you are stressed, aerobic workouts, walking, cycling, swimming, or running can help loosen those tight muscles and produce endorphins, which are chemicals in the brain that can help reduce stress. Exercise in moderation may also help you control your blood pressure.
Beginner runners especially can get injuries if they set the bar too high. There are numerous books and magazines that give specific education programmes for all levels of running such as Runners World and Running Fitness. Novice runners need speed play to remind them how to run properly; all runners need speed training for running enjoyment and for muscle stimulation-especially during the high mileage training which builds base. Low level aerobic exercise is the safest way to build aerobic endurance for running.
When you've been running for a while, you'll realize that running becomes your own work of art. You'll learn how to manage your pace, your stride length, even the way you land and push off the ground. As a beginner runner, run the designated mileage at an easy, conversational pace. Use your breathing as your guide to manage your running pace.
To make your running more pleasurable and less routine, Run/Walk in different places or at different times of the day. The Sacramento area offers some amazing places to run/walk. Run more so long as it's pain-free. Always stop when you're experiencing pain. Run to the pulse of your favourite music on your next run and focus on short strides. If while running you are really tired it just means you are trying to take large strides AND keep up a faster cadence.
Take it slow at the beginning, because your goal is to build a habit and make running your regular routine. You won't experience weight loss immediately, except through water loss. However, given a period of weeks to months, you'll start to experience both weight loss AND improved health levels.
If you want to add intensity to your run, hills will obviously drive your heart rate up. But that does not mean you should do away with hill work outright. As you improve in your health and fitness levels, adding runs up hills are an awesome way to improve your strength and challenge your anaerobic system. The first thing you need to do, however, is find a hill with a fairly steep grade.
Additionally, training through extreme weather conditions in the winter or summer can be emotionally exhausting as well as physically challenging. If there's one in your area, running in the pool provides a change of settings from familiar running paths or treadmills and training at an indoor pool allows for consistency when weather conditions make outdoor running uncomfortable.
Motorized Treadmill Running
To running purists, a motorized treadmill workout might make one feel like a caged hamster spinning around a wheel, but most people quickly latch on to the advantages and pleasures that treadmill workouts offer. It's great to run on a level surface without having to worry about twisting an ankle in a pothole or tripping over rocks. Treadmills have various speeds and settings that can be adjusted to each runner's ability. Runners who worry that they will miss the feel of running on natural ground can even set the angle of the treadmill to replicate the experience of hill running.
One great feature of motorized treadmills is that the speed and timers can be set precisely to the workout that you want to do on a particular day. You can do speed workouts or you can go for that long slow run that is an important part of distance training. The precise speed and time readouts can give runners instant feedback on their workout and allows runners to measure their progress empirically over weeks and months. Some treadmills even come with a heartbeat monitor.
The running magazine Runners World also recognizes the popularity of treadmills and offers various styles of workouts for runners of all abilities. Another fantastic aspect of motorized treadmills is that they offer runners the chance to multi-task during their workout. Runners can chat to fellow runners on a neighboring treadmill machine, watch a show on TV, or listen to music. The well-known comedian Jay Leno swears by treadmills and includes a treadmill workout in his daily routine.
Can Burning Calories with Running
Running has been shown to be one of the most effective ways of burning a lot of calories in the least amount of time. Compared to activities such as walking, housecleaning, bicycling or other physical pursuits, running has come up time and time again in research as one of the fastest ways to burn calories.
Now there are a few things that burn calories more quickly than running. A recent Google search found the following bigger calorie burners: Skin Diving – Fast, Competitive Speed Skating and Digging Ditches. Now I don't know about you, but most of those activities are not something I'd be able or willing to do on a regular basis. Besides the requirements for specialized equipment and training, what about access to facilities? If you're traveling, can you fit in some quick competitive speed skating or maybe dig some ditches?
Now you may have heard the theory that – from a calorie burning point of view – a mile walked equals a mile run equals a mile crawled. That theory is based on good old Newtonian physics that states that it takes a certain amount of energy to move a certain weight a given distance. According to that theory it shouldn't matter how you get there.
However, in a study conducted at Syracuse University in Syracuse New York, researchers concluded that runners burn more calories than walkers who cover the same distance. It seems that the mechanics of running – including the increased oxygen consumption – is responsible for making runners burn more calories than their walking counterparts. Add to the that the fact that your increased metabolism after running keeps you burning more calories for hours afterward and you have a winning combination for burning calories.
So if you want to manage the balance of calories in versus calories out, take up running for weight loss. You'll start winning the waist management battle and enjoy the many other health benefits that come with running for fitness.
Improve Lung Capacity For Running
1. Breathe Deeply. What you're doing here is expanding your lung capacity and your chest's ability to take in air. Practice these steps:
Exhale completely. I mean push it ALL out. Get it all out so you can accept more fresh clean air into your lungs.
Inhale deeply into your abdomen. Breathe the way babies do. You never see a baby pumping up its chest. Their bellies rise and fall with every little breath. Do the same. Expand your belly as you inhale forcing your belly-button away from your spine.
Then hold that breath there for a count of 3 to 5.
Then you can exhale completely again.
2. Breathe against resistance. The purpose of this exercise is to strengthen the muscles that help you to breathe.
Inhale deeply. Take in lots of air.
Purse your lips. That is – hold them together with only a small opening.
Exhale forcefully. You should be making lots of noise as the air exits your mouth.
3. Inhale more than you think you can. The idea here is to expand your airways and lung capacity. By breathing in more volume than you normally do, you will gradually increase your lungs' capacity for air.
Inhale deeply through your nose. This should be a deep breath in until you cannot bring any more air into your lungs.
Purse your lips and sip in air repeatedly until you cannot take in any more.
Hold your breath for a few seconds.
Relax and let the air exit through your mouth.
4. Exhale more than you think you can. As with inhaling more than you think you can, this exercise will increase lung capacity and your ability to expel stale air from your lungs.
Breathe deeply into your lungs and chest.
Hold your breath for a few seconds.
Exhale forcefully through your mouth until you cannot expel any more air.
Place your hands on your abdomen and use them to help press more air from your lungs. Leaning forward slightly as you force air from your lungs may help you expel even more air.

ORLANDO, Fla., June 29 (UPI) -- Sixty city vehicles in Orlando, Fla., were spray-painted with hate messages against likely Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, police say.
The message, "Obama smokes crack," was painted onto official vehicles parked across the street from Orlando City Hall, WKMG-TV in Orlando reported Sunday.
Customized business cards also were found near the damaged vehicles. They reportedly contained negative messages about the Illinois senator and probable the Republican presidential nominee, Sen. John McCain of Arizona. However, the TV station said, there were business cards with positive words about former presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y.
Officials said Orlando police were investigating the incident and the business cards.

Studio Dance Photography Shoot – Ballet, Contemporary, Street Dance
Finally after scrimping, saving and general pleading with family we got our studio lights!! Today is the first day we used them. We were fortunate to be shooting in a large photography studio with large infinity curve. Due to the nature of some of the dynamic dance shots that I take a large space, with high ceilings is a must, but a large infinity curve is a luxury, which I have today Thanks to all the dancers that participated in this weekend's shoot, everyone worked really hard and the atmosphere in the studio was fun and energetic! Thanks to North Liverpool Dance Academy and Carol May school of dance for training your dancers beautifully. A full range of dance styles was evoked this weekend from Street Dance, to contemporary and ballet dance. We mixed it up and added a few fabrics and rose petals at the end just for effect. Wind Machine and rose petals is fun until you have to sweep up! Bethany and Katie were great in this shot and it only took a couple of takes! Tara's use of fabric and an amazingly flexible back hit the mark in a beautiful and simple shot. And TJ with his ability to do head stands without arms was just a little frightening to photograph!
Looking forward to getting back into the studio again, had so much fun using the studio lights and seeing what we could capture freezing motion in mid air.

Microsoft is overhauling its update system, preparing single Windows 7 and 8.1 Monthly Rollups for security and reliability issues, as well as important changes to its Update Catalog.
Currently, if you want to check out Microsoft's Update Catalog, you need to run Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later. Soon, this annoying requirement will be history as the tech giant is working to remove the ActiveX limitation, which means that Windows users will be able to access the Update Catalog using any browser they want.
Microsoft hasn't revealed exactly when the change is going to be visible on the Update Catalog website, confirming only this will happen "soon".
The Microsoft Update Catalog website is being updated to remove the ActiveX requirement so it can work with any browser. Currently, Microsoft Update Catalog still requires that you use Internet Explorer. We are working to remove the ActiveX control requirement, and expect to launch the updated site soon.
This is a very smart decision from Microsoft, one that users have been requesting for a long time. The Redmond giant has already killed support for Internet Explorer 8, 9 and 10, and it is surprising that it imposes users to run IE in order to access the Update Catalog. At the same time, Microsoft encourages users to switch to Edge, although Edge limitations exist in the company's own backyard.
For various PC problems, we recommend to use this tool.
This tool will repair most computer errors, protect you from file loss, malware, hardware failure and optimize your PC for maximum performance. Quickly fix PC issues and prevent others from happening with this software:
- Download ReimagePlus (100% safe download and endorsed by us).
- Click "Start Scan" to find Windows issues that could be causing PC problems.
- Click "Repair All" to fix all issues.
Speaking of Edge, Microsoft's favorite browser isn't running as smooth as the company had expected. Many users have complained about various Edge issues after they installed the Anniversary Update. Edge freezes, randomly closes multiple tabs, and users can't download extensions or play audio on certain websites. If you've encountered such issues, you can use our fix article to solve them.

Carl Sandburg
All Day Long - Poem by Carl Sandburg
All day long in fog and wind,
The waves have flung their beating crests
Against the palisades of adamant.
My boy, he went to sea, long and long ago,
Curls of brown were slipping underneath his cap,
He looked at me from blue and steely eyes;
Natty, straight and true, he stepped away,
My boy, he went to sea.
All day long in fog and wind,
The waves have flung their beating crests
Against the palisades of adamant.

The beauty of the description of the turbulent weather kept aside, the element of mystery stings the sensibility of the reader. Thanks for sharing. (Report) Reply

Nicely done in that it only hints at aspects of a much larger story. We are left contemplating the power of the sea, and the decision of a young man to therein venture. What becomes of him? We wonder to the rhythm of the palisades of adamant, all....day....long.... (Report) Reply

We were absolutely delighted to be able to attend the final day of this film festival and see what all the hype was about. With the festival only in its second year – we were impressed by the involvement from the local and international fashion community in terms of brands, designers, artists and of course film makers.
Short fashion films aired throughout the day as guests moved between the main viewing area, the retail area and a 'pamper space' of sorts where ghd provided stylish hair-do's, MAC did artful makeup and the wonderful ladies at Foxbox did professional manicures in record time.
Lectures and demonstrations were presented throughout the duration of the festival, offering valuable information and insight into the fundamental concepts in both fashion film making – and fashion as a whole.
As big fans and regular patrons of 15 on Orange hotel and spa, it was amazing to see how they transformed the space to create a stunning venue for an inspiring festival that we will continue to attend in the future.
Thanks for having us, Bokeh!
Thanks for checking in, lovely readers!

Hi guys like its me again, writing about my friend's rather unique first sexual experience.
Just to reiterate, I'll be using fake names.
Jane's Perspective:
I never would have imagined that my first time would be in a vacant lot, gangraped by 4 strangers that that I can barely see in the dark. What's more is that I never would have imagined that I would enjoy being gangraped in the first place.
Pinatong nila ko kay guy3 habang si guy4 ay pumwesto sa likod ng pwet ko. Sabay nilang pinasok ang cocks nila. Meanwhile si Guy1 at 2 pumwesto sa harap ko at pinwersa akong isuck ang cocks nila.
AAAHHH, UUGGHH MMMM *cough*
Guy3: Tangina pre ang sikip! Virgin nga! May dugo oh!
Guy4: Hahaha ang swerte natin ngayong gabe ah!
Guy1: Hindi ko akalain sobrang libog mo pala miss, napaka cute at inosent ng muka mo.
Guy2: Onga, sobrang bata mo tignan mapagkakamalan pa kitang 15 yr old.
Sobrang bilis ng kanilang pagkantot sa akin. Masyado ko ata na lubricate cocks nila with my mouth. Hindi ako makasagot, nihindi ako makaresist. Sobrang sakit ng ginawa nilang paggangrape sa akin. Salitan ang pag pasok ng cocks nila sa pussy and ass ko, kapag lalabas yung isa, papasok yung isa. I wanted to scream in pain pero halos hindi ako makahinga dahil I was choking on cock the whole time.
And yet, even though nasasaktan ako, nakaramdam ako ng matinding init sa dibdib ko. Its as if nagka adrenaline rush ulit ako, lutang ang pakiramdam and parang bumagal ang lahat. The fact na hindi ko sila masyadong makita sa dilim made it all the more erotic. Its as if nag heighten ang other senses ko dahil wala ako masyado makita. Ramdam na ramdam ko ang sensation ng kanilang hot hard cocks pounding all my holes. Nilanghap ko ang stench ng kanilang pawis at, cum stained cocks. Wala na akong pakeelaman kung vinivideo nila to lahat.
Umangat ng konti si Guy3 para ifondle ang breasts ko. Inisqueeze niya ng malakas and then tinwist niya nipples habang hinila pabalik.
Guy3: Uugghh ang ganda ng hugis ng katawan mo
Medyo maliit boobs ko pero dahil fit katawan ko ay nagmumuka pa ring malake boobs ko in proportion. Meanwhile guy4 was squeezing and spreading my ass.
Guy4: Onga eh, grabe tong pwet mo bilog na bilog, sobrang toned.
Guy2: Hula ko athlete ka no miss?
With 1 eye closed, I looked at Guy2 while Guy1's cock was still deep in my mouth. I guess I didn't want to take it out because I only gave a moan in response.
Lalo ata sila nalibugan nung ginawa ko yun. Because the next thing I know tinanggal na ni Guy1 ang cock niya sa bibig ko and inaway ni Guy1 at 2 si Guy3 at 4, asking them to switch.
*inset me moaning in the background "aaahh ahh aahhh uughhh mm"*
Guy1: Puta tol kami naman!
Guy2: Onga!
Guy3: TEKA TANGINA!
Guy4: ANG SARAP PATAPUSIN MO MUNA KAMI!
Nasasaktan pa rin ako sa ginagawa nilang pagkantot, pero at the same time, grabe na ang libog ko. So much so that I reached out to Guy2's cock and dineep throat ko siya ng biglaan. He instantly came inside my throat and nilunok ko lahat bago dahan-dahang pinullout, making sure my lips were catching any remaining semen sa cock niya.
Guy2: uuuuggghhhh tanginaaaaa
With some cum still in my mouth I held his cock to my lips I told him.
Me: Wag na kayo mag-away, matitikman mo rin ako soon.
My mouth was still full so some of his cum dripped on to the ground as I spoke.
Natahimik silang 4. Meanwhile sinasabayan ko na ng galaw ang cocks ni Guy3 at Guy4. My hips were moving up and down, forward and back all on their own. I grinned with ecstacy thinking na ang dancing skills ko pala I magiging useful sa pagsatisfy ng cocks ng aking mga rapists. I was a virgin like an hour ago, and here I am voluntarily moving my hips to satisfy 2 cocks at once. Who would have thought that this cute, innocent, spoiled rich girl would enjoy being gangraped?
I finally came. I'm sure they felt it dahil bumilis lalo ang hips nila.
Guy3: AAAAHHH
Guy4: TANGINAAAAA UUUGHHH
Sabay nilang pinutok ang kanilang cocks inside me. One in my pussy, the other in my ass. I realized then how much of a slut I was. First blowjob, first cum drinking, first (triple) penetration, first deep throat and first creampie pero still wala pa ring first kiss? Ang dami ko nalasahan and yet I still don't know what a french kiss would taste like. Thinking this only made me hornier.
Atat na atat na si Guy1.
Guy1: TANGINA AKO NAMAN!
Meanwhile nagrereklamo si Guy2.
Guy2: Tangina naman di ko matayo!
Kaka-ejaculate lang niya kasi sa throat ko.
Hinatak ako bigla ni Guy1 and he made me go down on all 4s. Alam ko kagad na gusto niya kong i-dogstyle so inangat ko mabuti ang pwet ko while I arched my back para mahawakan niya shoulders ko. Meanwhile kinuha ni Guy3 at 4 ang phones namin at vinideohan ulit ako.
Nabigla ako, he went in so violently hindi ko na mapigilan boses ko. He rammed his cock straight into my cum soaked pussy. Ang bilis and ang rough ng kanyang pagkantot, my boobs were jiggling all over the place. Not long after, nanghina arms ko and I fell faced first into the grass. But yet again my body knew what it wanted and I was able to keep my ass up for him to fuck.
Guy3: Puta bumubula na puke mo dahil sa natira kong tamod hahahaha.
Naimagine ko just how ruined my pussy is at that moment and lalo akong na turn on. A mixture of blood sweat and cum and it felt incredible. I thought to myself, hindi na to gangrape... gangbang na to. I guess my sense / truth rin pala sinasabi nila. Pag marerape ka, enjoyin mo na lang... and I did I really really did.
(Co-Author: HAHAHAHAHA sorry, I know rape is no joke but natawa talaga ako when I read this. We mean no offense and apologize in advance)
Lumabas na ang inner slut ko. This cute 18 yr old girl, na mapagkakamalan mong highschooler, whom a moment ago was still a virgin. Is now craving the every sensation that cocks and cum provide.
A few seconds later, napansin ko si Guy2, pumwesto sa harap ko. I crawled a little bit closer, still clenching down on Guy1s cock. Wala pa ring lakas ang cock ni Guy2, I could tell na medyo may idad na siya so I fiugred I should try helping him back up (hihi).
I rested my head on his crotch. I couldn't see infront c... Read More »

I cannot tell you how often I hear someone that is 'boycotting' a brand for some reason or another. Usually it's due to a viral rumor, but that's another story… (remember the fake Oprah/Tommy Hilfiger scandal? )
I've also had couponers tell me that they organize their coupons by 'parent company'. WOW! I cannot believe that they can find anything when it's lumped into eight random groups.
The graphic above is a very easy to read diagram of parent companies and their subsidiaries. I wish I could take or give credit for this graphic, but I received it in an email and there was no name attached.
As a couponer, rebater, or just plain 'ol shopper, it's important to know the parent companies for several reasons. In one of my stores this week is a promotion: Buy any 5 Kraft products, save $5 instantly. No coupon required, the register will take care of everything. Now you can easily find qualifying items without searching the store high and low.
Save this photo to your computer for reference. It will come in very handy, I promise!

In battle is the only time a Dragon Ogre can die, so they fight with a powerful fury.
Dragon Ogres are amongst the most ancient of the world's living creatures. Their incredible longevity, as with almost all things supernatural, is the work of the Chaos Gods. Aeons ago, the elders of their race made a pact with the Ruinous Powers, embracing damnation in order to save themselves from a slow decline into extinction. They were given eternal life, and in return, the entire Dragon Ogre race put themselves at the command of the Dark Gods. Since that day, the Dragon Ogres have carved their names across the ages as immortals who can only die in battle, monstrous beings that rouse themselves only in the name of destruction.
