- NEW YORK — As President George W. Bush prepares to give his sixth State of the Union speech, a new FOX News poll finds that Americans want to hear him to talk about the situation in Iraq, the economy and terrorism. The president's approval rating is 41 percent, which is about where it has been for more than two months now.
The poll shows that Americans are most interested in hearing the president speak to the nation about the situation in Iraq (26 percent), the economy (20 percent) and terrorism (11 percent). (Respondents named topics without the aid of being read a list.)
Of course, the liberal Washington Post and liberal New York Times want us to believe that everything's great in Bush world.

The Shire is a pleasant, peaceful land about 120 miles long (west to east) and 150 miles wide (north to south). Divided into four quarters or farthings, Northfarthing, Eastfarthing, Southfarthing and Westfarthing - it is a densely settled land of fields, farmlands, woods, streams, and villages. For the last 1500 years, it has been the homeland of most of the Hobbits. The original settlement was a land-grant from one of the last kings of Arthedain to refugees entering Eriador from Wilderland. It was later expanded through the addion of Buckland to the east, a narrow strip along the far shore of the Brandywine some 20 miles long but only about seven miles wide.While well populated, the Shire has no true cities, the folk being dispersed across the whole country. The largest settlement, Michel Delving ('Great Burrows') in the chalky White Downs of Westfarthing, serves the seat of what government the Hobbits have. It houses the home of the Mayor as well as the headquarters of the Shirriffs, the Bounders, and the Post. Michel Delving also includes the Mathom House (the Shire museum) and is the site of the Free Fair (a septenial event). A town of some size, it is unusual for the Shire in that, extensive as the namesake delvings are, a large portion of the town is aboveground.Most of the other large population centres owe their numbers to being the home of a large and prosperous extended family, such as the Great Smials at Tuckborough. The Tooks live in Great Smials, while Tuckborough itself is largely populated by servants and workmen employed by or dependent in some way upon them. Similarly Brandy Hall in Buckland is the home of the Brandybuck clan, with the rest of Buckland serving as home to their friends, followers, retainers, and more distant relations. Most of the villages that dot the landscape are home to only one or two hundred Hobbits. Bilbo's grand birthday party, with its 144 invited guests, included virtually everybody in the nearby village of Hobbiton and the neighbourhood once the cooks, servers and other party staff were added in.For such a small country, the Shire has a great variety of terrains: hills, river valleys, bogs, woodlands (thickening to forest toward the northen border), marshes, moors, and open downs. Aside from its unique native architecture, few other points of interest to a stranger passing though, except perhaps the Three-Farthing Stone, near the centre of the Shire just southeast of Bywater.Early in the Fourth Age, King Elessar declares the Shire off-limits to Men. A second expansion, Westmarch, is added a generation after the War of the Ring (one of the original pioneers being Sam Gamgee's oldest daughter), extending the western border of the Hobbits' land from the Far Downs to the Tower Hills. The Shire prospered greatly during the Fourth Age, not just sharing in the general improvement of conditions the rest of Eriador experienced with the renewal of the North-kingdom, but also establishing new ties with other realms as the result of friendships that grew during the Quest of Erebor and the War of the Ring.

Its most notable spot is an isolated house standing back from the lane in the middle of a wide lawn. It is surrounded by low trees inside an outer hedge, and there are no other dwellings nearby. This house is occasionally occupied with Brandybuck Hobbits who grew tired of the often crowded Brandy Hall.

Rokugan: Shadow Creeping
Usagi Oda
Oda always wears the traditional red and white colours of the Hare Clan. His clothes are normally very plain. He is slender and a little short.
Hare Clan Daimyo
Hare Bushi Rank 1
Akodo Bushi Rank 2
All stats 3
Void 2
Battle 2
Defense 2
Iaijutsu 2
Kenjutsu 3
Oda was a good man put in a tough position; being the daimyo of a minor clan situated between the Crab and Scorpion clans. His clan sword has been missing for two centuries, and his lands have been constantly plagued by an ogre.
Oda is quite old fashioned in his adherence to Bushido, but he is not too formal or stuffy. He is down to earth, takes his duties seriously, and is earnest in almost everything. He never jokes, and will hestitate when laughing to make sure he understands the joke.
Oda has two children, his son Usagi Ozaki and his daughter Usagi Tomoe.
He knows his daughter Tomoe is a beautiful girl, but Oda can not afford a big dowry. He decided to send her along with Ozaki to Otosan Uchi to find her a suitable husband, preferrably an influential Crab or Scorpion. The most interested suitor was Yasuki Nokatsu, but Oda does not want to entrust her to a man who floggs slaves for a living.

Cliff Avril looks at his teammates this time of year and thinks, you don't even know.
Seattle begins its fifth consecutive postseason run Saturday night against the Detroit Lions in an NFC wild card game at CenturyLink Field. Russell Wilson, Doug Baldwin, Richard Sherman, Kam Chancellor, Bobby Wagner, K.J. Wright, all they know is playoffs, playoffs, playoffs. Every year, year, year.
Not Avril.
As a rookie he played for the 2008 Lions. That team went 0-16 — the most unplayoff-like NFL indoctrination possible.
"I think a lot of younger guys, they've been in the playoffs four straight years, five straight years, so you can get spoiled in it and not understand how special it is," the Seahawks Pro Bowl defensive end said this week.
"For me, personally, I embrace it, because I know what it's like to never have been.
"I think I went one time in Detroit in five years."
Playoff experience is the big advantage the Seahawks are counting on this postseason. They believe because they've been here before, and have won big in the playoffs, they can instantly flip from a regular season of concerning inconsistency.
This Seahawks core not only has made postseason appearances as common as winter coffee in Seattle, it has made two of the last three Super Bowls. Seattle is 7-3 in the playoffs since 2012.
But these Seahawks aren't the same as the previous playoff ones. That playoff experience only runs so deep.
Which is to say, not that deep at all.
Seattle has eight guys, 37 percent of the starting offense and defense, making their first postseason start Saturday. That includes four-fifths of its iffy offensive line: undrafted rookie college basketball player George Fant at left tackle, second-year man Mark Glowinski at left guard, rookie first-round draft choice Germain Ifedi at right guard and former guard and tackle Justin Britt at center.
The newbies include the starting backfield of veteran fullback Marcel Reece, signed late in the season after eight years in Oakland, and tailback Thomas Rawls. Rawls was out with a broken ankle last January, as a rookie, when Seattle won at frigid Minnesota in the wild card round, then lost, 31-24, at eventual NFC-champion Carolina in the divisional playoffs.
The defense has three starters making their playoff debuts against the Lions: rookie defensive tackle Jarran Reed, strongside linebacker Mike Morgan and free safety Steven Terrell.
Defensive tackle Ahtyba Rubin and Avril have been telling these Seahawks — those in the playoffs for the first time, and even the postseason veterans — to prepare and play with an extra appreciation for where they are.
"To see 'Rube' enjoy it like he does, and Marcel Reece to feel it, and Cliff, too — he was on one side of it, now he's in where he's winning and having playoffs and stuff like that — those guys really understand it," Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said. "I don't know that Kam and 'Sherm' and those guys can sense it the same way. ...
"The messaging is strongest when it comes from the guys who have not had it before and now they feel it. They can tell you what it's like, and I want them to tell the young guys. The young guys don't know, the second- and third-year guys, they don't understand sometimes, which is OK. Part of this is feeling comfortable in this setting, comfortable winning, comfortable with expectations, comfortable with division championships … the way you perform in playoff time and the expectations of that. It needs to be normal if you're going to do it consistently."
And as much as the Seahawks are a team with different pieces, they are a team with a different style. The top-ranked running game that has been Seattle's calling card during the playoff seasons slumped to 25th this season.
Quarterback Wilson picked up the slack despite being sacked 41 times and injuring his knee and ankle, throwing for a franchise single-season record of 4,219 yards, breaking the record he set last season.
Even the defense has slipped from its prime. This season was the first time since 2011 that the unit did not lead the NFL in fewest points allowed, falling to third in that category.
Terrell's first time in the playoffs is the most potentially problematic for Seattle's quest for a third Super Bowl appearance in four years. He's replacing Earl Thomas. The Seahawks' three-time All-Pro broke his tibia on Dec. 4 against Carolina.
Expect the Lions and quarterback Matthew Stafford to attack Terrell much as Arizona did on Christmas Eve in Seattle's last loss: with crossing routes in front of him and deep post and seam routes at him.
After all, Detroit is the first Seahawks playoff opponent since Thomas entered the league in 2010 to not have to face No. 29 in the middle back of Seattle's defense.
Offensively, the Seahawks' task will be the same it's been all season: Get the line to play well enough, and for long enough, to establish even a semblance of consistency in the running game and pass protection.
Detroit is 27th in pass defense and 30th in getting sacks, which suggests Wilson will continue his throwing that set a Seahawks record. But all that will equal another wasted opportunity if Seattle's offensive line — with those new playoff participants — doesn't protect Wilson.
What are veteran line coach Tom Cable and the Seahawks going to learn about the lowest-paid and one of the youngest lines in the league this postseason?
"How much fun they can have," Cable said.
"Really," he said. "They've earned this, so this is an opportunity to enjoy what these coming weeks bring. We've trained them all year, so it's nothing new to us. Not different. Our culture is championship culture, and every week has been a championship game. So can you truly relax and enjoy it, because you've worked so hard to get here."
Rubin never went to the playoffs in his first seven seasons in the league. Those were all with Cleveland — which is exactly the opposite of Seattle in recent playoff pedigree.
That's why last January, the 310-plus-pound Rubin was running around during the Seahawks' wild card win at Minnesota like he weighed 110 pounds. Despite wind chills of minus-20 degrees, the thankful Rubin played possessed. He had a sack, then ran down the field and recovered a fumble by Vikings star runner Adrian Peterson near the sidelines. That set up the winning points in Seattle's 10-9 victory.
"Oh, man! I was wiggin' out. I was happy as hell," Rubin said this week. "Everybody was like, 'Why is this guy so (fired up)?'
"It's exciting. But it's normal here. … It's a blessing. It's just indescribable. And just to get the chance again this year to keep climbing in the playoffs, it's just a blessing. I'm not going to waste this opportunity."
The Seahawks hope they have eight other players feeling exactly that way Saturday night.

Grillhute German Restaurant Patong Beach Phuket
by Keith
Here is an outside view of the Grillhute German restaurant in Patong Beach Phuket. If you love German food this restaurant serves some great authentic German cuisine. It's only a few minutes walk from Soi Bangla road.
The restaurant is located right in Soi Foodland, there is another German restaurant that is right across from the Grillhute, it's call the Landhaus and they also serve some very good German food, we dined at that one a few times, both restaurants serve some pretty good quality food at a good price.
Here is a video of the outside of the restaurant, you can sit inside or outside, its a simple video, but at least I can give you an idea.

✉ -- Yuria from Japan--✈
A Little Postal Gratitude >> Thank you, Yuria, for some very kawaii mail! I love the Hello Kitty postage stamps...super adorable! I wish we had stamps as cute as those in the US. Perhaps maybe then the USPS would make more money if they had cuter stamps- just a theory of mine, ha-ha. But- once again thank you so much, Yuria. I enjoyed this mail full of kawaii goodness!! :) xoxo
*/ Side Note: I received this mail awhile ago as I've mentioned previously I have lots and lots
of photos to upload of mail I received ages ago. So don't get freaked out thinking I'm getting a whole
bunch of new penpals in. No, not at all. This is mail from some time ago :) And no worries to my old
penpals (I hate to use the word 'old', but I used it so you guys know what I mean),
this is why I'll be posting outgoing mail posts soon. So make sure you keep an eye out here
and in your mailbox.
More Postal Gratitude >> Your comments and follows are always highly appreciated, thank you all!
To keep you posted >> So as partially promised here is a new blog post; however, as you can tell it is not an outgoing mail post. Unfortunately, I was stupid enough to have forgotten to email my penpals (those to whom the letters are going to) earlier to check and make sure they still have the same address before I mailed them out. So I'm terribly sorry about that! I promise this is not an excuse...just a silly error I made on my part. Hopefully, I'll have the outgoing post on Monday because that should give enough time for my penpals to email their new address (if they have one). The letters are done, but I just want to check up on their address, so I can send them off and post about them on the same day. Sound good, guys? :)
EDIT: Outgoing post will be posted on Friday...sorry! On Sunday, the electricity went off (autumn weather is here...yay!) and on Monday at the time I was supposed to be posting, my Nana called. Convenient, huh? Ha-ha! But I'm excited to post them and I hope my penpals will enjoy them. I thought I did fairly well. I was seriously even thinking of writing a letter to myself, lol. Not trying to brag or anything **cough, cough**. So my post will be up on Friday. I cannot promise that, but IF everything goes as scheduled- Friday it is. Let's hope nothing unexpected happens again!!
Just in case, you missed the previous post, what I'll be doing from now on is posting a new post up every Monday and Friday at 10:15am PST/ 7:15am EST / 17:15 GMT (I hope these time conversions are correct, lol) , so that you all know when to expect new blog posts :)
Have a great weekend, guys! See you again on Monday...xoxo :)
✉ -- Happy Postal Traveling! --✈

Dawn Biozyme: Prologue
"That's all Sprague said?" asked Jim-Bean, looking bored as he sipped the special protein drink formulated especially for his hyperactive metabolism. He flavored it occasionally with different powders to try to improve the taste, but it never helped.
Hammer nodded. "Take down Dawn Biozyme." He tapped some keys. "The pharmaceutical company's not hard to find. They even have a public web site."
Dawn Biozyme was established in 1985 by Matthew Lewis, a graduate of the Harvard Business School and eldest son of a family long connected to Washington politics. One share was worth $23 the day Hammer looked it up, with two million shares outstanding. Dawn Biozyme was worth about $46 million.
"Looks like Walter Morrow's suicide really screwed up Tiger Transit's plans," said Hammer.
"Walter Morrow. Morrow killed himself because he was trapped by a Hound of Tindalos, remember? Tiger Transit was trying to get him to fork over his shares, but instead they transitioned to his ex-wife, Michelle. Tiger Transit owns twenty percent. Michelle owns twenty five percent and she's not selling."
"Who owns the rest?" asked Jim-Bean.
Jim-Bean sipped his drink. "Now that name rings a bell." more

Rated 5 out of 5 by happy feet from sandals that rock We've suffered from foot trouble, so when my husband started wearing these rocker sandals, he was amazed at how comfortable they are.He was so impressed that he got a second pair; just in case he can't get them down the track. We recommend to everyone.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Nanna Bev from Rocker shape sole keeping me ROCKING ! These great walking sandals have made my arthritic feet so much easier to keep active! I have been using them for several years and they are, for their price, very resilient as I have several pairs for everything, walking the dog in the bush, gardening, in the house and particularly on the very hard floors in the shopping centres.

Rated 5 out of 5 by xxxxx from extremely comfortable This is the fourth pair i have purchased and I would never buy any other style or Rivers sandal. The overall comfort is superb and the cushioning in the sole/heel is the best I have experienced ( and must have! ).

Rated 2 out of 5 by George17 from Good title. Purchased the sandals as size 8, but found them to be a very small size 8. The strange soles were difficult to walk in and very uncomfortable to walk-in.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Julie21 from Bought these for my husband and he loves them. Excellent so far, but my husband is still getting used to feeling 2 inches taller :) They have excellent grip and very comfortable, with a soft supporting sole. I'm guessing that's why they're so "high". On all counts though, they are an excellent heavy duty sandal and still manage to look a little more stylish than some. We ended up buying a second pair for back up but I think it will be years before either wear out.

Rated 5 out of 5 by J B from Airforce Rocker shoes / sandals I absolutely love this type of footwear. I do some long distance walking, and bush walking, and the support and comfort i get from these Rockers is superior to any other walking or hiking shoe ( costing 2-3 times the price ) I've ever had.I just hope you continue to make and supply them , and would recommend them to anybody who loves regular walking.

Rated 5 out of 5 by littlehelenb from Great hard wearing sandals My purchase of these sandals was a huge success. If you have a bit of a propensity to roll your feet these keep you on the straight and narrow and reduce strain on knees and lower back. They are hard wearing and great to wear. Highly recommended.

I want to make a small website mainly for citizens of my city. I want to turn my computer itself into a server (as in dedicated Host).
The configuration of the computer would be like 1 GB of RAM, 500 GB Hard Disk (or an external 1 TB Hard disk), Core 2 Duo processor.
I surfed the net to find out something about XAMMP, but didn't understand it correctly. So is there any software that would automatically turn my computer into a server or web host (what is the right term?) easily and make it eligible for hosting a WordPress blog or even Joomla CMS?
Thank You!
I think you would be better off by signing with one of the cheaper web hosts out there.
The thing is it's possible to host the website on your own web server / computer however it requires that you're well familiar with server configs. Setting up everything up wont be hard, but troubleshooting stuff that doesn't work will. You may ultimately end up spending a lot more time than you're willing to allocate for the project.
I think it's not worth it.
Thanks for your help very much..
but the link that you provided for opera unite..i couldn't find the software anywhere on that page.. however i think this is what you were talking about..
http://unite.opera.com/application/192/ or
and XAMMP, how would I host the website on my own domain name which i bought?
Right now I have Mowes Portable installed in my computer and i am able to host files on htt://localhost/
but i want it something like
Hi try download the Opera Unite software and install it
now you are running a web server on your machine and just need few minutes to configure local file folders that you want to share with others over the internet.
Start the Opera Web browser (its also you web server) and enable the Opera Unite service from the lower left corner. Now double click the File Sharing link and select the folder whose content you want to share on the web. Any file or folder inside this folder can now be accessed over the internet – you can either use a public URL or specify a password for private sharing.
you can try also http://rejetto.com/hfs/
It also differs from classic web servers because it's very easy to use and runs "right out-of-the box". You can access your remote files, over the network and HFS has been successfully tested with Wine under Linux.
with XAMPP
1) Downoad XAMPP
2) after the installation you should see a command prompt which say " Should I add shortcuts to the startmenu/desktop? (y/n): " if you want the program to add a short-cut to the desktop and start menu type "y" and press enter
3) now you should see "Should I locate the XAMPP paths correctly? Should I proceed? (y/x=exit setup): " make sure you enter y" now n the next command make sure you type "n"
4) then press enter and press enter again so now you should see a list and make sure that you type 3 and press enter, then once you press enter you should see the dilaog again and this time make sure you press 1 and enter then you should see the "XAMPP Control Panel" so now just exit this command prompt and go back to the control panel
5) okay so now start apache, start MYSQL and finally start PHP once you have done those steps so you can test your server by visiting http://localhost/security/xamppsecurity.php and you should see a screen with a logo of xampp and pick your language and that it is you have your own server running
6)to upload go to my computer click on the C: Drive or the drive there you installed XAMPP and once your in the drive where you install XAMPP —-> you should see a XAMPP folder click on it and go to htdocs and delete everything in the folder and move your webpage make sure you rename your webpage to index.html
you will need also

This Sunday's lectionary readings and reflections
Thirty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time [a]
November 6, 2011
Wisdom 6:12-16
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 or 4:13-14
Matthew 25:1-13
November 6: Daylight Savings Time ends in the U.S.
November 8: Election Day in many places in the USA
November 11: Veterans Day in the USA, Remembrance Day in Canada
At the center of all Catholic social teaching are the transcendence of God and the dignity of the human person. The human person is the clearest reflection of God's presence in the world; all of the Church's work in pursuit of both justice and peace is designed to protect and promote the dignity of every person. For each person not only reflects God, but is the expression of God's creative work and the meaning of Christ's redemptive ministry.
U.S. Catholic Bishops, The Challenge of Peace, #15
In the Hebrew Scriptures ruah's activities include creating new life, working to sustain it in myriad ways, renewing what has been damaged, grieving over destruction, teaching people to be wise, and inspiring critique and enthusiasm, all of which have engaged the energies of generation after generation of women.
Elizabeth Johnson CSJ, She Who Is, 83
The Synod Fathers stated: "As an expression of her mission the Church must stand firmly against all forms of discrimination and abuse of women"(178). And again: "The dignity of women, gravely wounded in public esteem, must be restored through effective respect for the rights of the human person and by putting the teaching of the Church into practice."
Pope John Paul II, Christifideles Laici, 49
Flagrant inequalities exist in the economic, cultural and political development of the nations: while some regions are heavily industrialized, others are still at the agricultural stage; while some countries enjoy prosperity, others are struggling against starvation; while some peoples have a high standard of culture, others are still engaged in eliminating illiteracy. From all sides there rises a yearning for more justice and a desire for a better guaranteed peace in mutual respect among individuals and peoples.
Pope Paul VI, Octogesima Adveniens, 2
Thoughts for your consideration
The first reading refers to God as wisdom and thus gives us a feminine word or image to talk about the divine. As we broaden our understanding of what God is all about, we expand our vision of what is important and valuable in the world. We come to see that all people, men and women, rich and poor, young and old, reflect the dignity of God and are made in the image and likeness of God. Divine wisdom challenges and inspires us to work for the human rights and dignity of all – especially those who have sometimes been placed on the margins by our cultures – the poor, children, women, minorities, immigrants, etc.
Today's gospel parable reminds us not to just wait around doing nothing. If we want to enjoy the life God has given us and grow in the goodness of God, we should get into action and be ready. "We should have our lamps filled with oil."
Our lamps are ready when we wake up from sleep and engage in the problems of our world and its people, interact with people in need, dialogue on the important issues of the world, and get into action.
Our lamps are ready when we broaden our understanding and are willing see the world as God sees the world -- when we come to see that all people, men and women reflect the dignity of God and are made in the image and likeness of God. Our lamps are ready when we put this vision in practice.
Our lamps are ready when we engage in the study and learning that will help us analyze the world well and contribute to the world of renewal and justice for all.
Questions for Reflection in your Faith Sharing Group
In what ways do you find people in our culture asleep or inattentive to the important issues of the day?
In what ways do you find yourself asleep and inattentive to the realities of the world?
In what ways do you find yourself awake and attentive to the realities of the world?
Story (from the Attar of Nishapur in the Sufi tradition)
The Beloved
One went to the door of the Beloved and knocked.
A voice asked: 'Who is there?' He answered: 'It is I.'
The voice said: 'There is no room here for me and thee.'
The door was shut.
After a year of solitude and deprivation
this man returned to the door of the Beloved.
He knocked.
A voice from within asked: 'Who is there?'
The man said: 'It is Thou.'
The door was opened for him.
Rumi (Shah 207)

Vatican document calls for global authority to regulate markets

"Crazy Facts"
The following is from The Stanford Center for Study of Poverty and Inequality at
The facts are simple...
Income inequality is extreme and increasing: The top 1% of Americans control nearly a quarter of all the country's income, the highest share controlled by the top 1% since 1928.
The U.S. is exceptionally unequal: The U.S. ranks #3 among all the advanced economies in the amount of income inequality.
The poverty rate is high: The U.S. poverty rate, according to the new Supplemental Poverty Measure, is estimated at 15.7 percent. The official poverty rate stands at 15.1 percent. The United States Department of Agriculture estimates that 14.5 percent of all households were "food insecure" in 2010 (which means that at least some household members didn't have access to enough food for an "active, healthy life").
The unemployment rate is high: The U.S. unemployment rate for August is 9.1 percent. The employment-to-population ratio, which was 58.2 percent in August, is over 5 percentage points lower than just five years ago.

Prayer - Meditation
Various local elections in the US take place this Tuesday. The following "Prayer at Election Time" is from the Sisters of Mercy of the Americas
Prayer at Election Time
Loving and gracious God, we remember that your plan for us is fullness of life lived with love, justice and mercy.
Be with us and our whole nation this year as we work together in selecting political leaders at all levels of our society. Help us keep the common good before us.
Strengthen our gifts of wisdom, courage and respect for the views of others.
Deepen in us the willingness to act in solidarity with people who are economically poor and with women seeking fullness of life in society.
Help us be persistent in testing political remedies against what they will do for people, to people, with people, and what they will mean for the health of our earth home.
Help us to support one another in exercising our precious responsibilities as citizens in a representative democracy.
After the elections, strengthen us to continue to work with our leaders, seeking an ever more just society that acts in harmony and interdependence with all creation.
We ask this in the name of Jesus in union with Your Spirit. Amen.

What to CookSalad
A Fast, Fresh, Take-Anywhere Salad For All Your Summertime Needs
The month of July makes me question my love of cooking. Because as much as I gawk and guffaw over the produce at the market (I mean, have you seen it?), I don't want to cook it, per se. Never is the bounty so great; never is my desire so meek.
Feed me pasta with slow-cooked tomatoes and garlic confit for dinner, and I'll accept it with gratitude. (Plum galette for dessert, please.) But ask me to make it myself, and I'll choose generously salted tomatoes followed by soft chocolate ice cream instead.
Where is my passion, you wonder? Camped out in the park, hiding in the air-conditioned movie theater or, frankly, prostrate on the bed, nap-drooling.
But still, the need to cook persists. It's funny that way. There are work lunches to pack, parties to attend, and weeknight dinners when a bowl of berries won't cut it. And then there are lots of people (I hear they exist, though I am not one of them) who cook meals in advance of traveling, in case there are no suitable options at airports and rest-stops. These are the most prepared people!
But we can be like them, too. This salty-crunchy-fresh chickpea salad, which comes together in 10 minutes flat, will make you feel like you're cooking with no actual cooking at all. Just throw herbs, chile, garlic, lime juice, and vinegar into the food processor, then stream in olive oil until you have a fragrant, bright-green sauce. Toss it with chickpeas (you could swap out half for a more tender bean, like cannellini), halved cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, and chopped toasted almonds.
Let the ingredients marinate in the chimichurri as long as you can stand, then serve—perhaps on a toasted bread swiped with Greek yogurt and olive oil, or over that bowl of heirloom tomatoes you were planning to eat for dinner?
The salad's as flexible as you feel when submerged in the pool. If you don't have mint or cilantro (or if you only have one), compensate with other herbs. Chimichurri typically includes fresh oregano; you could add a couple tablespoons of just-torn leaves, or a teaspoon or two of the dried herb, or forgo it entirely. Swap out the red wine vinegar for white wine or rice wine vinegar. Maybe this isn't chimichurri anymore, but heck, you've made green sauce.
Mix in cooked grains, sliced snap peas, cucumber chunks, broiled shrimp, roasted fish. In the winter (seriously, can you even remember winter?), you might add boiled broccoli rabe, roasted squash or potatoes, and tears of rotisserie chicken.
Hey, you've cooked! And you didn't even have to crank up the A/C.
For the chimichurri:
- 1 cup packed flat-leaf parsley
- 1/2 cup packed mint
- 1/2 cup packed cilantro
- 1 serrano or other hot green chile
- pinches red pepper flakes, optional
- 1 garlic clove, peeled
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 tablespoon sherry or white wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
- 1/4 cup olive oil
For the salad:
- Two 15-ounce cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 pound feta cheese, crumbled or cubed
- 1/4 cup chopped toasted almonds
- Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
- Toasted or grilled bread and Greek yogurt, for serving (optional)

Game time for Youth America's Cup:
The serene island paradise of Bermuda will have eight international teams competing June 20-21 on the Great Sound in the Finals of the Red Bull Youth America's Cup. The six-person teams aged 18 to 24 will amp the excitement in the six race series for the title.
But there's more than a trophy at stake. Launched in 2013, the Red Bull Youth America's Cup was developed by Sport Directors Roman Hagara and Hans Peter Steinacher to provide a pathway toward a professional career in sailing, and America's Cup syndicates have been watching closely.

How To Get Over Bad GCSE Results - NCS Grad, Sophie Meehan
Getting your GCSE results can be a scary time, and results you weren't expecting can be heart-breaking.
But it's really important to remember that although good grades are important, they are not by any means the 'be all and end all'. Yet GCSE's are sold in as being a defining moment of our lives, so much so that it can be absolutely shattering to find you have missed the mark. At 16, GCSE's were everything and somehow, I'd seemingly slipped off the path I felt I should have been on. However, there is so much you can do to get yourself back on track if you miss a grade or two.
I did my GCSE's two years ago this summer and had hoped to get all B/A's, but I was gutted to find only a handful of B's and mostly C's. I had also hoped on attending a well-known grammar school, but with the grades I achieved I was rejected. I got a D in maths the first time I took it. But learnt there are always people you can talk to if you need to re-sit any exams, and with support I managed to pass on my second attempt.I remember walking into school on results day with shaking hands, as my watery eyes repeatedly scanned the stiff piece of paper, desperately wanting to believe I was reading my results wrong. The letters that stared me in the face just didn't seem real. I cried seeing I'd achieved a D that was so close to being a C, but clearly not close enough. Everyone has exam anxieties and when those worries come true, everything can seem daunting. It was shattering to find my two years of hard work had seemingly amounted to nothing. Scrolling through social media to see all my friends excitedly posting pictures with their results, when I was at home crying was especially hard to stomach.
It felt like the end of the world, missing the grades I have strived for by so close a margin. Though luckily, those close to me were really supportive. I sat down with my parents and my school's head of Sixth Form and re-enrolled straight away. After having my heart set on amazing results and the prospect of studying A levels at an amazing school gone, it seemed like the end of the world. But as it turned out, staying at my school's Sixth Form was the best outcome for me.At A level, I took subjects I really enjoyed, which helped keep me motivated, as doing the work never really seemed like that much work. Because of this, it meant revising this year was made easier. Now after getting my A level results, hindsight truly is wonderful. Two years ago, when I received my GCSE results I could never in my wildest dreams have imagined getting the wonderful results I achieved this year. Or even thought I would have a place at a top university to study a subject I love and am passionate about.
Despite not getting the exact GCSE results I had hoped for, I am going to study Politics and International Relations this September, which I couldn't be happier about.
- Embrace the disappointment and remember your GCSE's are not the end of the world
- Look at all your options
- Talk to people you trust, like teachers, family and friends
- Try to avoid comparing yourself to other people – you are you
In my opinion, GCSE's are important as sometimes they can open doors for other qualifications. But by no means are achieving good grades vital to your happiness. You cannot be defined by numbers or letters or even a government statistic. Your achievements are valid and important. To summarise, in the moment of opening bad results it can feel terrible but in no way is it the end of the world. You always have options and GCSE's are not the most important thing in life.

This week, in between medical apppointments, we squeezed in all kinds of new experiences. May giggled to Last Choir Standing finalists ACM gospel choir who were entertaining folks at the hospital. (She says, "Yes!") She paid a visit to Borough Market a haven of blue cheese and free samples. Yum. (May says, "No!"). She also attended her good friend Anna's 1st birthday party. (May says, "Yes!)
Finally, May visited the Tate Modern art gallery. It is an ex-power plant; cavernous rooms a stroller can easily negotiate and high ceilings that swallow up baby cries. Mainly, we went to view the enormous canvases painted with bold, primary colors – visual stimulation for May.
Not everyone visiting the Tate Modern was happy to see May. These people fell into two categories:
Type 1: Unlike me and my fellow art aficionados – all wearing tight, black clothing draped with scarves – your baby can't possibly appreciate high art.
Type 2: What is that pretentious mother thinking? She must actually believe her baby can appreciate this high art!
As an answer, here is May's response to the all-important question of the day: "Yes May, but is it art?" (Click on each painting to link to the Tate.)
Barnett Newman – 'Adam' and 'Eve' (Which one is this? May knew.)
Moaning as if in pain. Could have been a deep, emotional response to the painting or possibly a gassy tummy.
Henri Matisse – The Snail
Not interested in the least. Sighed loudly. Tucked herself into my shoulder for a quick snooze.
Francis Bacon – 'Seated Figure'
Squeals of joy! Laughter! Giggles! Bounce bounce bounce. (I told May she should have a deeper appreciation for Bacon's dark and disturbing works, but she disagreed. Bounce bounce bounce.)

ST. LOUIS - Two St. Louis firefighters and a warehouse employee were treated for minor injuries Wednesday after a building in a south city neighborhood caught fire.
The fire started around 10:30 a.m. in the basement of Park Warehouse Services, located at 3937 Park Avenue, near St. Louis University Hospital. About 12-15 people were inside of the one-story building at the time. Between 80 and 100 firefighters responded to battle the blaze.
The fire is burning so hot and bright that there will be hot spots for quite awhile. That will make it hard for those who have valuables inside to get inside to see what it left from the smoke and flames.
We've heard from a number of people who work in the warehouse and others who lease business space and store products for businesses. It is where Reedy Press stored hundreds of books. So many of the history books about St. Louis and Missouri that you see on store shelves went up in flames Wednesday.
In the building there was everything from shampoos to sanitizers and 160,000 citronella candles stored there. One man who worked here told us hundreds of new lawn mowers were in the building.
A woman who owns Angie's Transportation says that 40 of her trucks are stored at the building. The trucks and drivers were all on the road when the fire broke out.
John Cornell says he is thinking about his business and others that lost theirs. Many employees are now out of jobs just before the holidays.
Another casualty of the fire was that the Moolah Shriners stored most of toys they give away to children at Shriners Hospital during the Holiday's were destroyed in the blaze. The Shriners will be taking donations at its facility located at 12545 Fee Fee Road, to replace the toys destroyed.
One big concern is the smoke and air quality in St. Louis. People living in neighboring homes are worried about their small children and breathing all this stuff in. The fire department says they can tell just by the color of the black smoke that its packed with carcinogens.
Late Wednesday night the injured firefighter was released from the hospital after being treated for his injury.

"i read what arron wrote about the difference between BFS twitches and ALS. Is it true that you usually don't see ALS twitches? My neuro told me when I got checked last week that if I had ALS he would see twitches all over. I hope you are right Arron. Please advise and thanks for everyone's feedback"
Well, sstine, not all doctors are up on ALS and most doctors have never even seen a case where a person had ALS. It is VERY rare, only about 30,000 cases reported so divide that by the number of doctors out there and the chances of YOUR doctor ever even seeing a patient with ALS is about as slim as winning the lottery. I must have 3,000 doctors in my phone book alone in my little area, so you can imagine the number nation wide. I'm not saying your doctor is a quack but saying he would see fasciculations all over is about as lame as saying twitches lead to ALS. That is just untrue and total misinformation.
Here's the deal with twitches in BFS against ALS. It's not a matter of being able to see the twitches or not. Yes, most people never even noticed the twitches in ALS until they noticed weakness first. Remember, ALS twitches are SECONDARY to the underlying disease, NOT the other way around. ALS twitches are usually very fine. So fine infact, that sometimes they can only be seen under a special strobe light in a neuro's office. That's a far cry different than BFS thumps and bumps, right? The deal is that ALS twitches (among many other things) are very fine and are NOT widespread at any given time. They do NOT thump one second and go the next, and do not appear in one place one minute and somewhere else another minute. ALS twitches are caused by dying muscles and nerve endings in the area affected by the ALS at that given time. ALS does NOT take-over your whole body at once in random locations. It starts in a hand, an ankle, a foot, the throat or where ever it decides to start and progresses or "spreads" from that point-on. It MIGRATES. It does NOT bump a muscle in your butt cheek, then your shoulder blade, then your finger, then your calf and then someplace else. That is NOT migrating twitches, that is RANDOM twitches, pops and thumps, NOT TRUE fasciculations of the ALS type.
As I said earlier in this thread, "among many other things", meaning there is a HUGE difference between ALS twitches and the way they present themselves compared to BFS twitches and so far, NONE, as in, not one single one of you, nada, zilch, no way, no how have ANY of you posters on this board or any other board EVER described anything even remotely like what ALS twitches are like and that is why not a single one of you... that number again is ZILCH of YOU have had ANY ALS diagnosis' from your doctors. Gee, do you think maybe they know the difference between ALS twitches and BFS twitches too? Hello??????? That is why they aren't scared but you still are. If you weren't scared, you wouldn't be here reading this, right? Honestly, have you see anybody on this board or any other board get diagnosed with ALS yet? NO. Not when they describe the kind of symptoms of BFS withOUT weakness or migrating symptoms.
I have seen only ONE, that is 1 single person present their symptoms on a board like this one and end-up actually having ALS. That is one person out of thousands that didn't, and this person said she had weakness and it was difficult to make her hand function to hold her toothbrush or her coffee cup. RED FLAG folks! That is REAL weakness and it was centralized in ONE place. NOT random twitches all over. It was slowly working it's way up her arm before she even noticed the twitches. THAT my friends, is how ALS presents itself, NOT with all of this "buzzing", "rumbling", "thumping", twitching, tremoring, shaking, aching and so on symptoms you and I have.

Labrador Man Films Rare Encounter with Black Bear Mom and Four Cubs
Seeing a black bear with cubs isn't all that unusual. But one with four little ones certainly is.
The typical litter size for a black bear is 2 or 3. So generally, if you spot a black bear mama in the wild, she will have twins or triplets by her side. Seeing one with four youngsters is quite rare, which makes this video from Labrador all the more incredible.
Dwight Lethbridge, who happens to be the mayor of Cartwright, Labrador, was out on his snowmobile May 5 while dropping off supplies at his fish lodge. To his dismay, he spotted a mother black bear and four tiny cubs out on the ice.
"First time I ever seen four was this brood. I've seen three a couple times in my life, and I often see one or two, but first time for four—and a great time to have a camera," Lethbridge told CBC. "They were up under an ice pan hauling back seaweed and kelp looking for food. Mussels and clams and whatnot."
As you'll see in this wonderful footage, one tiny bear cub made a bee-line over to Lethbridge, ending up only six or so feet from his snowmobile.
A rare sight today on the way to the lodge on skidoo with a load of supplies. Four cubs and sow, all looking healthy, and they are young and brave! May 5th, 2017
Nai-post ni Pratt Falls Salmon Lodge noong Biyernes, Mayo 5, 2017
Pretty adorable watching that little cub bounding through the snow, wasn't it? Definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
What's the most cubs you've seen with a sow at one time? We'd love to hear your stories.
