|Illustration by Valenti Angelo for Heritage Press edition of The House of the Seven Gables, 1935
Dr. John L. Idol, Jr. explains in his lecture delivered at the Turner-Ingersoll House on September 14, 2000, "No doubt the most celebrated illustrator asked to prepare a set of pictures for The House of the Seven Gables was Italian-born, California-raised, Valenti Angelo,whose colored drawings appeared in the Heritage Club edition in 1935. His oval-shaped and colored illustrations stand at the head of each chapter, each illustration meant to convey the principal mood or event in the chapter it introduces. Here there is no minuteness of detail, nothing resembling Dutch painting at its most realistic. Rather almost ghost-like figures and indistinct structures bring out the gravity and melodrama of Hawthorne's blend of New England Gothicism and the emerging elements of realism in American fiction. One is inclined to say of these broad strokes and the melancholy feelings evoked is that they haunt the book. One is also inclined to say that Angelo wanted to project in his illustrations those qualities which Hawthorne associated with the romance as a distinct form of literature. Here are words that Angelo must have seized upon as he read the romance: If [the writer] think fit … he may so manage his atmospherical medium as to bring out or mellow the lights, and deepen and enrich the shadows, of the picture. (xv) Angelo's illustration, in their dark hues of reddish-brown and sage and their lighter hues of yellow and blue, never let us forget that we are reading another of Hawthorne's Americanized Gothic tales."

We live in a bit of a 'go to an expert to fix all my problems' kind of culture and because of this, there can be a tendency to stay with a therapist longer than necessary or worse yet, stay with one that doesn't help at all. The thing is that because we've handed all our power over to said therapist then we can ignore our intuition when it's telling us to get rid! Here's the trick – only you can heal yourself. and it's up to you to take that responsibility, find those tools (from the right expert) and commit to doing that difficult work, yourself.
I know this because I've experienced it first hand in my own trauma recovery process (heartbreak, post-traumatic stress and grief all in one difficult year, ouch). It wasn't easy and in the midst of such emotional turmoil (not to mention all the shame around admitting such intense emotions), it was difficult to know what kind of therapist to go to and whether or not they helped.
I've found that in order to really steer my recovery I had to keep asking myself a series of questions so that I didn't get lost in the wishful thinking that x, y or z therapy was going to 'heal me forever' because that my friends, is delusional thinking. These are the questions that I use to sense-check my therapies and whether they are currently working for me
Has this session made a positive influence on me?
If you read my therapy reviews you'll notice that I do a physical and emotional sense check before and after each therapy review. By doing so I allow myself to check in with my current state and write it down, then I can go back to what I've written and objectively see whether or not the therapy was beneficial to me, rather than just rely on my (often rose-tinted) memory. If no positive difference has been made then you can choose to persist and see if you need a few more sessions to really get into it or consider that it may not be the one for you. If it's positive, great! Stick with it for as long as you continue to get what you need from it.
Am I still getting what I came here for?
Firstly what are you going to the particular therapy for? If you're going to have your symptoms treated then regular sessions may be useful and necessary, that's how I use sports massages – a good way to manage the problem of my tense shoulder that can sometimes become unbearable. However, if you're looking to heal then it might help if therapy is seen as an opportunity to receive tools that help you solve your problem, which is how I view the sessions with my counsellor. Of course sometimes, I just need a non-judgemental space to release some pent up emotion but I also need an objective perspective to point me towards new ways of thinking or to train me to reflect (an immensely useful tool in trauma recovery).
I found that after quite a few sessions I reached a point where I felt like I'd attained all the tools that I needed from this counsellor and that particular therapy. It was the signpost that I didn't need any more sessions because I was no longer getting what I went there for so I decided to thank my counsellor and call it a day. I take comfort in the fact that I know a good counsellor who knows my story and can be there for me as and when I need more sessions, for now, though I feel quite capable of processing on my own.
What does my intuition say?
Ultimately all therapists are only human and are still susceptible to human traits, such as mistakes, misjudgements and their own emotions. The most important role of a therapist is to create the security for you to be able to get what you need from them, whether that is emotional security in a meditation workshop, physical security in salon environment or psychological security in a counselling session. If you don't feel safe then you won't be able to indulge in the therapy. I found however, that the fear can either be a resistance to the therapy for fear of expression (usually because of the shame that our society associates with expression of emotion) or that it's a legit message from my intuition that is telling me that this person/therapy isn't right for me at this moment. I always air how I feel to the therapist and give them the opportunity to make me feel secure, just in case the feeling is fear based, rather than my intuition. If the therapists answer fills me with integrity and security then I know that it was a fear of vulnerability/expression popping up but it's always worth sense-checking this because I have had a few experiences where I've not been satisfied with the answer and I've upped and left the therapy altogether.
For example, my first experience with a counsellor after being violently attacked was not positive but I fought my intuition and went back a second time and told the counsellor of my expectations – of being able to get on a boat in 4 weeks time and sail from the UK to Mallorca, in winter, with three men I'd never met before. The answer I received rang my alarm bells "I would never recommend for any young woman to get on a boat across tricky waters with three strange men, let alone in the state that you're in" she said to me. What happened here was that the counsellor had measured me by her own limitations when in reality our risk factors and capabilities are completely different. As a trained counsellor, she should have been able to extract her judgement from her professional opinion but in that moment she couldn't. I can't control what judgements are passed against me but I can, choose to leave a therapist that doesn't understand me and find one that does, which I did because ultimately I am in control my healing, no anyone else.
For the record, I got on that boat and sailed across those 'tricky' waters with those three 'strange' men.

Communities of Practice (COP) are formed by people who engage in a process of collective learning in a shared domain of human endeavor: a tribe learning to survive, a band of artists seeking new forms of expression, a group of engineers working on similar problems, a clique of pupils defining their identity in the school, a network of surgeons exploring novel techniques, a gathering of first-time managers helping each other cope. In a nutshell:
Communities of practice are groups of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do and who interact regularly to learn how to do it better.
Etienne Wenger (2013)
PCt2U is a (COP) our learners all meet up on our Moodle LMS and we form such a community. We all learn to teach or assess learners or to manage the quality cycle of an education project. But the main thing is that we all converge in one place and work together to learn something. Yes we define our identity as professionals by engaging in our educational studies and as we progress along our learning journey we leave a lot behind for the community and for those new to the community to engage with in the future. Yes we do help each other out and this is a part of our communities ethos in that we interact with each others work, with each other in discussion and the learning process and we move forward in what we want to do and achieve. At PCt2U we might not be able to be seen, we cannot boast large fixed assets, student bars, floodlit playing fields and huge monolithic libraries, but we do have a big community of learners that has grown exponentially since our inception. Be a part of our learning community today and let us all learn together via our shared experiences and without you having to leave the house or office to meet us. We are all looking forward to sharing our experiences with you @pct2u.

Our Accommodations
Boarding at ICS means that you live with other pupils and teachers. There are several boarding houses at ICS ranging from primary to Middle School to High School boarding. Each student from Primary to High School is assigned to a HOUSE TEAM under Nelson Mandela, Kofi Annan, Rosa Parks or Yaa Asantewaa. Students in the boarding house are responsible for support of their team with their talents, knowledge, skill, morale and creativity to make their team a winning one. Girls and boys stay in separate accommodations.
In each boarding house, there is one house parent who lives on the premises. Their job is to look after and care for the student's needs. Some are teachers, and other workers, are full-time caretakers.
Young boarders share a bedroom or dormitory with up to four children. Each pupil has his/her own area which can be personalised with photos, a lockable cupboard, and wardrobe for possessions. Sharing in this way is great fun! The child might be tempted to stay up all night playing games and talking with their roommates, but so they don't forget about their classes the next day, lights-out is at 8:30pm.
Older boarders share a bedroom or dormitory with up to ten pupils. Each pupil has their own area which can be personalized with photos, a lockable cupboard, and wardrobe for possessions. Lights-out is at 9:30pm
The boarding house has comfortable communal areas where the child can relax, socialise and watch television with their fellow pupils.
Our Foods
Healthy and nutritious food is very important – for happiness and well-being. The ICS canteen puts a lot of effort into making meals healthy and tasty.
For breakfast, there is a choice of a hot breakfast, sandwich, pie, cereal, porridge, and beverages. For lunch and dinner, there is a very wide choice of excellent food ranging from continental to Ghanaian local dishes including fruit for desert.
We cater for any food allergies. Contact us for more information on what we offer. If you visit ICS, see our food and drinks section and ask the pupils what they think of the food.

Buying an iPad: Of course I'm buying an iPad. I'll have one the morning of April 3.
It won't replace the {nook,kindle}. These days, I'm reading on the Kindle and the nook is sort of languishing. I've still got $75 of B&N credit and a few books that I can't read on anything else, thanks to the DRM.
The Kindle fits in my jacket pocket and weighs less than the giant biography of Nixon that turned me onto ereaders in the first place. 1.5 pounds is too much to hold up in front of me for 4 hours at a stretch. At least I think it is ;)
I usually use the kindle in amazon's default leather cover. I like having the flap and the textured leather backing. That's about the right compromise between portability, protection and comfort for me. At least this week.

Lloyd Christmas Update
Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. The little guy now has a FULL SET of front teeth! I was able to get him to the dentist early the next morning and they fixed him up as good as new. After bragging about his brilliance to pretty much everyone I know I found out that this is not as rare as I thought it was. Huh! This whole time I thought my kid was super unique in his 'tooth breaking' abilities. I'm sure he shine in some other area yet to be discovered and probably more expensive. We'll just call this "Chapter I" for those of you making a scrapbook about this.

As a K-teacher you thought you had seen and heard all? You have got to write a book with dual chapters. Part one: your classroom, the second: your child!
OOOHHH, and we could add the "I am learning to walk and pull myself up using everything I can think of, so why don't I pull myself up with the CD rack and watch them fall on my face...and Christmas was only a few days away..." Children do not only say the darndest things, but they do the darndest things...

- 100 g (3 ½oz) unsalted butter, softened, plus extra to grease
- 175 g (6oz) self-raising flour
- 25 g (1oz) cocoa powder (we used Bournville)
- 200 g (7oz) caster sugar
- 2 medium eggs
- 75 ml (3 fl oz) evaporated milk
- few drops vanilla essence
For the milk chocolate icing
- 100 g unsalted butter
- 6 tbsp cocoa powder (we used Bournville)
- 300 g (11oz) icing sugar, sieved
- 4.5 tbsp hot milk
- 1.5 tsp vanilla essence
Grease two 20.5cm (8in) sandwich tins (not loose-bottomed as the mixture will run out) and line them with baking parchment. Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan) mark 4.
Sieve the flour and cocoa powder into a large bowl, and then mix in the sugar and ½tsp salt. Add the butter and use an electric whisk to combine until it resembles dark sand.
In a large jug, beat the eggs, evaporated milk and vanilla essence with 75ml (3fl oz) water. Pour into the flour mixture and beat well with an electric whisk until smooth. Divide mixture between the tins and bake for 18-20min until springy to the touch.
Leave in the tins for 10min, then transfer on to a wire rack and leave to cool completely.
To make the icing, melt the butter in a medium pan. Use a wooden spoon to blend in the cocoa powder and then the icing sugar to make a thick paste. Gradually stir in the hot milk and vanilla essence. Beat until smooth. Cover the surface with clingfilm and leave to thicken for 45min. Sit one sponge on a cake stand. Spread over a third of the icing. Put the second sponge on top and spread with icing, encouraging it down the sides and smoothing with a spatula. Use a palette knife or fork to make patterns on the cake top.
Like this? You'll love...

We were woken up by boyfs family asking us if we wanted to see the monthly farmer's market and get breakfast there. I was like "hell yeah!" a chance to visit a Scottish farmer's market and a promise of food, it doesn't take more than that to get me out of bed.
Our trip came to an end at 3pm and we had to make our way to the train station for our 7hr journey back down to London. Fun times!
1 positive thing that happened today:
When we got back to London at around 11.30pm, the next DLR from Canary Wharf to Devon's Road was in half an hour. I suggested that we get the bus but boyf is always against getting on a bus for some unknown reason. We waited for a few minutes when he started looking smug when the scheduled bus didn't bother to stop for us (like he was desperate to prove his point that buses are rubbish!) and started walking to find a taxi (which are a total rip off..I would rather wait for a bus in most circumstances..). When all of a sudden, another bus turns up!
The cherry on the top came when bus driver let him ride for free and I used my travelcard! So that's a tenner we saved right there!
3 new things you are grateful for each day:
- People who are willing to tell you the correct way when you are inexperienced–I tried a venison burger for the first time ever. When I said I was going to get some ketchup, the family friends immediately exclaimed-"No!! You don't want ketchup on venison", when I said I was going to ask for some onions they also said "no! Onions on venison? Are you mad!?".They didn't really explain why it was such an aboniation to smother my venison burger in ketchup and onion, but I was glad they did because it was so delicious and I wouldn't have been able to experience it if the family friends hadn't stopped me!I find a lot of people don't want to come across as over bearing, or pretentious or whatever and who have held back from handy tips like that. That's why I always make a point of letting my boyfriend know when he's picked a ladies drinks at bars or parties hehe 😛
- The fact that we are able to see things in hindsight– As me and boyf were walking back from the farmers market, we saw some pedal boats and decided that we want to go on them so we could say we went boating in a loch (Scottish for lake??).We didn't in the end, but in hindsight, it would have probably cost a fortune, and wouldn't have been all that fun since they usually put up a floating perimeter and force you to stay in a small corner of the loch. We went in the sauna in the lodge instead and that was way more fun!
- The fact that we experience nostalgia– Our route our train went was very familiar. We went past York as the sun was setting and I felt this huge wave of nostalgia. I remembered the good and bad times that made uni a great experience and felt so grateful. Nostalgia is probably a distant cousin of gratefullness?
1 act of kindness:
A friend Skyped me asking if we wanted to see the Avengers on Saturday. I immediately replied with a thank you for taking the initiative to organise something fun. I find it really hard to organise fun things for a large group of individuals (and they tend to fall apart in one way or another..) so I'm thoroughly grateful that there is a friend in my social support network to relieve me of this duty once in a while!
It's great there are super orgainised individuals in the group so we can all see each other despite all our busy lives.
Thoughts on anything in the post? Do you like nostalgia? Rubbish at organising? Comment below!

The heart of a warrior
by, 21-Sep-2009 at 04:40 (951 Views)
All my life I have been looked down upon becuase of my looks and disbalities and that is how I become the man you see today. Cold, calculated, and sometimes void of any emotion except anger. In my bodie beats the heart of a warrior that just wants to prove himself to the nay sayers that think i'm to delicate to train because of my disabilities. I sometimes think I was born in the wrong era and the wrong part of the world. I would have made the perfect Pharaoh or the perfect manslayer at the end of the Togagawa reseam.
I did this to create a wall from the igorance in my school days but now I must look past that to the future. I must cast away the evil in my heart. Unforchanetly, I know I will have to carry such a spirit until I die.

About Monarch Mania
In the 1960's the number of bald eagles was so low that biologists feared they might be headed for extinction. There wasn't a single bald eagle nest in Iowa. Today bald eagles are one of our greatest conservation success stories. Why? Because law makers, public and private conservation agencies, and American citizens took action to protect this iconic bird, which now nests in nearly every county in Iowa and has been removed from the endangered species list.
Today another iconic species needs our help. The monarch butterfly, once common across the countryside and in everyone's backyards, has decreased 90% in numbers since the 1990's. A drastic reduction in milkweed plants, especially in the very important monarch breeding grounds of the Midwest, is believed to be one of the main causes for this decline.
Everyone knows what a monarch is, and everyone can do something to help. The only plant monarch caterpillars will eat is milkweed. Without it they cannot survive. So the solution seems relatively simple – PLANT MILKWEEDS!
Fortunately, there are numerous species of milkweeds that are native to Iowa and all are eaten by monarch caterpillars. In addition, they are relatively easy to grow and maintain in backyard gardens and habitat plantings. So, like the bald eagle campaign decades earlier, a massive effort to save the monarch butterfly is underway and gaining traction throughout the Midwest.
The Lime Creek Nature Center is joining this effort with our Monarch Mania! program. The goal of this program is to assist citizens, schools, businesses and communities with planting native milkweeds on their properties to provide critical habitat and help turn the tide for monarchs. In addition we are promoting planting nectar plants for bees and other pollinator species, many of which are also struggling. These pollinators are a very important component of our food supply and their declining numbers should concern everyone.
Components of the program include this web site full of resources with the section to share monarch pictures, videos, and observations; public training sessions on creating pollinator gardens; assistance to schools and communities for planting pollinator gardens; Monarch Mania! signs to post at registered gardens; utilizing schools and volunteers to start milkweed plants from seed; pollinator demonstration plots; monarch and pollinator expert guest speakers; and monarch tagging programs. REGISTER YOUR GARDEN TODAY!
The Monarch Mania! program is being funded by the Lime Creek Nature Center's Maxine Sanberg Memorial Fund. Maxine was a long-time volunteer, nature center board member, and strong supporter of the Lime Creek Nature Center. She was also an avid photographer and took many pictures of monarch butterflies over the years.
Restoring a struggling wildlife species almost always starts with restoring their habitat. Establishing milkweed and pollinator plant gardens in backyards, fields, and roadsides throughout the Midwest will make a huge impact in reversing the alarming decline of our beloved monarchs and pollinator species.
More information on the Monarch Mania! program will be available on our Facebook page and this web site as the program develops. Please get involved and help make the return of the monarch a conservation success story equal to that of the bald eagle!
The Lime Creek Nature Center
The Lime Creek Nature Center opened in 1984 as a conservation education facility serving North Iowa. It was funded exclusively by donations from private citizens, businesses, organizations, and foundations. The nature center programs are not tax funded; we rely on memberships and donations to continue our mission.
The Cerro Gordo County Conservation Board
The Cerro Gordo County Conservation Board (CGCCB) was established in 1958. The CGCCB currently manages four county parks, twenty five wildlife areas, the Shellrock River Greenbelt and Preserve, the Lime Creek Nature Center and three multi-use trails, Trolley trail, Railroad R.O.W. corridor, and the Sisters Prairie Trail. The CGCCB is also responsible for environmental education and the management of roadside vegetation in secondary road right-of-ways throughout the county.

Thompson, Priscilla Jane
THE EVE of Christmas had arrived;
The children were in bed,
The clock upon the mantel, chimed
The half-hours as they fled.
Aunt Lucy tip-toed 'bout her work;
For work she had to do;
I've never seen a Christmas eve
Bring aught but work,--have you?
And so Aunt Lucy tip-toed 'bout,
With heart expectant, light,
"Twould be a shame to wake the babes,
With Santa mos' in sight."
But all at once Aunt Lucy stopped;
"Laws! Whut's dat thumpin' noise?"
She had good reason to believe,
It wasn't Santa Claus.
And yet, five minutes back, had she
Not seen on pillows white,
Four little cherubs, wrapped in sleep,
Most pleasing to the sight?
With busy hands and heavy step,
Aunt Lucy fairly flew;
Admitting that they were awake,
She had her work to do.
Next, calls she stern, behind closed door,
(Too busy to pass through,)
"Now, whut's dat thumpin' sound I hear?
Paul Peters, is dat you?"
"Phil, Joe, an' Babe, I know is sleep,
An' you, to, ought to be,
Ef you don't git back in dat bed,
I'll lay you 'cross my knee!"
"But mamma, Santa Claus is come!
I seed him pattin' Ring,
He's come an' fetched his wife along,--"
"He aint cum, no sich thing!".
"But ma, he had a dreat big sack,
They did'nt make no noise,
An' when he set it down, to rest,
He kissed Miss Santa Claus."
"You hesh yo' mouf, an' git to bed!
Don't b'lieve a word you say;
Fah none has come into this house,
But Sis an' mister Clay."
"Nobody axed you whut you seed,
All bad boys see a sight;
You git in bed, or you will see,
A, whoopin' 'fore 'tis light.
So guilty Paul crept back to bed,
Most miserable of boys;
For fear she'd tell old Santa Claus,
And forfeit him his toys.
Yet mamma never "peached" on him,
For Santa brought a host;
And so he solved the myst'ry thus;
He merely saw a ghost.

I will grant you happiness and protection for life under one condition. You bring me two virgin boys and sacrifice them in the presence of Holy idols." I was really confused, but all I could say was, "Yes ma'am." She answered, "call me Aunt Jemima."

Pondering !
What's in a name.
Finding just the right name for a blog to me anyway it probably the most difficult initial part of blogging. Mine came to one day while i was fueling my Pinterest addiction.
I came across this.
Image via Pinterest
This just made me smile and that was that I had found the spark that then became Letter25.
After considerable shuffling around and searching the web Letter25 was available across many of the social media platforms. So there you have it the conception of the name Letter25.
Thanks for popping in today.

A 17-year-old girl, who was in the wrong place at the wrong time, died after a gunman shot her while walking home on Thursday night in Little Haiti.
According to Miami Police, Lexsis Ray was walking down the street at Northwest 64th Street and 2nd Avenue about 11 p.m.
The passenger of an SUV jumped out of the vehicle with a high powered rifle, and aimed for 19-year-old John Baker, who was walking behind the teenage girl on the opposite side of the street and opened fire.
When the gunfire erupted, Baker ran away in order to dodge the bullets. Unfortunately, the teenage girl was struck multiple times.
The SUV took off in an unknown direction.
Both victims were rushed to Jackson Memorial Hospital's Ryder Trauma Center in extremely serious condition. Ray died at the hospital. Baker remains in critical condition.
Police say more than 40 bullet casings were left on the scene. In addition to both victims being shot, bullets also hit a car and a house.
"I was in bed sleeping and I heard some gun shots and I jumped on the floor and I heard guns going and I told him that something went through my window and I saw the holes coming through my windows," said a woman whose house was hit by the bullets.
Police say the motive for the shooting is still unknown and they are looking for information from any possible witnesses.
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Miami Police Department's Homicide Unit at (305) 603-6350 or Miami Dade Crime Stoppers at (305) 471-8477 (TIPS

Have you been wondering what your 10-13 year old child is going to do this summer? It's a challenge when they are too old for childcare and too young to stay home alone.
"The children that are 10 and up, they don't want to be in childcare all day long," Gabrielle Moon, Executive Director of St. Luke's Children's Centers, said. "They want to do bigger field trips and better things."
That's why St. Luke's is starting a new Summer Day Camp for children in that age group. It's called "Canvas & Tunes" because it will focus on having fun with art and music.
"There is a real need for it," Gabrielle said of parents who don't want their children spending their summer watching TV or playing video games. They will be "having fun, but learning something at the same time."
Local artists and musicians will be teaching a variety of visual arts throughout the summer. "Painting, ceramics; the art we offer at Studio 222," Julie Robinson, Executive Director of Studio 222, said.
Character building is another goal. "That's what we build at Studio 222," Julie added, "self esteem and confidence."
Canvas & Tunes will also offer swimming, field trips, sports (Frisbee golf, volleyball, etc.), and community service projects at places like Rancho Village Elementary.
To enroll by May 19, please contact Gabrielle at firstname.lastname@example.com (405-600-3412) or contact Julie at firstname.lastname@example.com (405-609-1009). The camp will run June 5-August 17 and is available from 7:00 am – 6:00 pm. Limited space available. Cost is $225.00 per week.

text: It will be necessary to produce much more food, on less land, with less water. Agro-biotechnology could play a key role, if not burdened by unjustified restrictions. The outstanding restriction is 'extreme precautionary regulation' of GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms), preventing the potential of public research and development to deliver products. Progress in science presents a powerful basis for the development of crop plants being nutritionally optimised, pest- and disease-resistant, resistant to drought and flooding, saline and heavy metal environments, and with higher potential for the exploitation of natural resources. But this powerful potential will reach a dead end, if society does not solve the following problems:

The "Season of Service, Period of Peace" (Season of Service) is a ten-week period from Martin Luther King Day in January through Cesar Chavez Day at the end of March where students engage in non-violence/peace oriented service projects. The idea behind the Season of Service is that students need the opportunity to take responsibility for the culture and climate of their school campus and take a stand for the lives that they want to live. Service projects emphasize a number of issues of non-violence and peace from envisioning a more peaceful school to addressing issues such as bullying, homophobia, hate speech and gang violence. This year, a dozen different groups participated in the Season of Service, including the Black Student Union, Gay Straight Alliance, Key Club, Jefferson Service Club, Octagon Club, ASB, Art Classes, Media Academy, English Department, Business Academy, Social Justice Academy, and Latinos Unidos. In all, approximately 750 students have participated in the Season of Service each of the last two years. The Season of Service is now completing its third year.

Deciding factors: if the contribution is deductible, tax bracket in retirement versus tax bracket today, income levels today, current age, and availability of retirement plan at work.
If the question is whether you should invest in an IRA account (including traditional and Roth), then the answer is YES (capital bold yes)*. If the question is whether you should contribute to a traditional IRA or a Roth IRA, then the answer is 'it depends'.
It primarily depends on several factors. Two of these factors are the most important: whether the contributions are taxable in the current taxable year, and whether you expect your tax rate to be higher or lower (as compared to the current rate) in retirement.
The basic idea of an IRA account (traditional and Roth) is 'Money is taxed by the IRS only once' - either you get taxed now OR you get taxed when you withdraw the money in retirement.

In all seriousness, we've had a pretty mild winter. Yes, in the Northeast where I call home, we've had a few spells of down right frigid weather, but all & all it hasn't been too bad! A few weeks ago, babytooth and I had a photo shoot day planned (she runs the most amazing fitness IG | @rippedrobin go check her out!) Of course that day it was FREEZING and it snowed the whole time, but it gave me a chance to put together this #ootd for you! Stay warm, babes, xo!

Conversations With My Brother
[After overhearing some guy let out a huge belch while having kuay thiew at a roadside vendor]
JASON: Man, I can never burp.
LYNN: What are you talking about? Everyone can burp. Even babies can burp.
J: Nuh-uh. I can't.
L: Yes you can, dimwit. I used to burp you when you were a baby. Sometimes you'd hurl all over my shoulder, too.
J (shaking head): Not anymore, I can't.
L: Well, next time you feel a rush of gas coming up your esophagus, let it out.
J: I can't. Whenever a rush of gas comes up my esophagus, it ends up getting pushed back down and out my ass.
[At Foodland]
J: Why do they put the sanitary napkins and tampons next to the dog food?
L: For continuity.
J: What do you mean?
L: Because we women can be total bitches during that time of month. I thought you should know that by now.
[A week ago, while sitting around completely bored out of our skulls during a wedding reception at the Oriental Hotel]
J (completely out of the blue): Would you rather sh*t at the Den Chai train station in Prae province or on the train?
L: At the train station, of course.
J: Why?
L: Because I wouldn't want to sh*t on a rocking toilet.
J: But if you were to sh*t at the train station, you'd have to pay 2 baht just to use the toilet. I know it's only 2 baht, but why should they charge you for your sh*t. Sh*t isn't worth that much, not even my sh*t.
L: No sh*t, sherlock.
NOTE: This last conversation was held while sitting at a table with a well-known khun ying with gravity-defying hair. Later, while slipping away to the ladies' room to give my numb face a break from smiling at yet another stranger I "just had to meet," I was surprised to learn that the person barking on her cell phone whilst taking a dump in the last stall was none other than the khun ying. This isn't the first time I've encountered such a thing, but still I found it rather ironic that this should happen mere minutes after holding a conversation about, well, sh*t.
Currently Reading: My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult. This fantastic book now joins the ranks as one of my all-time favorite books ever. I don't know why I waited so long to getting around to reading it; after all, the premise is brilliant, the issues complex, and at the very heart of it all is a riveting, evocative and incredibly poignant story. Never before has a book made me weep so (well, maybe The Time Traveler's Wife, but still). Though this novel is marketed as YA, I highly recommend it to everyone and anyone of all ages. Go ahead and read an excerpt to get a taste. If this story doesn't touch you in some way, then all I have to say is that you, my friend, have a heart of stone.
Currently Playing: Collide by Howie Day. I drove my brother insane playing Collide on repeat the entire day yesterday, a weird habit I tend to have whenever I get all OCD about a certain song (pretty often). This is one of the prettiest songs I've heard in a long while and is very reminiscent of Damien Rice's radio remix version of Cannonball, another tres beautiful song.
Currently Banging: The keyboard, you perverts. On a whim, I joined NaNoWriMo again this year to see if I could bang out 50,000 words by the end of November. I've got 25,007 words so far, so I think I'm doing okay. I just have to bang out another 25,000 words, somewhere in between the exams on MY BIRTHDAY and the 26th, the four days spent entertaining family friends of ours who will be in T-Land from the 18th-22nd, and THE NEW HARRY POTTER MOVIE THAT HITS THAILAND ON THE 17TH!!!!! GAH. Either everything will work out and I'll pull a total Wonderwoman act this month, or I'll go completely insane. We'll see which happens first...
Currently Pining Over: The new Pride and Prejudice movie. It's already out in the US, so GET YOUR ASSES TO THE THEATER, AMERICA. In the meantime, I must impatiently wait two more agonizing months for dear Mr. Darcy. :( I could download the film off bittorrent, but... No. Must. Resist. Urge, even though I'm dying to see the much talked about first proposal scene. Oooh.

Disappearing Wildlife in the Jungles of Laos…
Above Photo: A Rare Sight – An Indian Civet Cat alive and in the jungle in Laos
As any traveller through Laos will know, you get to see a lot of wildlife – although most of it is unfortunately dead and for sale in rural markets. Civet cats, especially, seem to be hunted and killed in huge numbers for meat.
It was therefore with some surprise and considerable pleasure that I looked at these photos of live Civet cats in Laos (well, they were alive when they were photographed, at any rate), on the website of www.programs.wcs.org, having seen so many dead ones on my travels through the country.
The hunting of wild animals in Laos is depleting its jungles of wildlife. In almost every local market I have visited, every day, dead jungle animals are for sale. I contacted the wildlife ministry in Laos to ask some questions about the bush meat trade last year, but didn't receive the courtesy of a reply, so I assume they don't really care that much about it.
I also read a superb – if appalling – article about the hunting of tigers in Laos here: http://news.mongabay.com/2009/0420-wildlife_trade_in_laos.html
In neighbouring Thailand, where many jungles and national parks resemble animal ghost towns through over-hunting, Laos has a perfect case study in what can go wrong if the government is too weak, corrupt, unconcerned or ineffective to protect a country's wildlife over a prolonged period.
I only hope Laos can stamp out, or substantially reduce, its jungle meat trade, before it's too late.
Our new film, M.I.A. A Greater Evil. Set in the jungles of Laos and Vietnam, the film deals with the possible fate of US servicemen left behind after the US pulled out of the Vietnam War.
See the trailer for our new film, M.I.A. A Greater Evil.

I am so grateful to those who provided feedback last week in response to my weird three pound gain. Although my blog is new and I'm still learning, I've quickly come to see how much the feedback means. My spouse and friends support me because they know me and love me. But this is different - you actually understand what this feels like because you are LIVING it just like I am. So keep on talking with your fingers as often as you can. Help build each others networks, especially for new bloggers like me. Take a few extra minutes occasionally to search out a brand new blogger who might desperately need to receive that first bit of feedback. Lyn's (Escape From Obesity) Bethany McDonald Blogroll is a great place to start. I know those first comments meant the world to me (thanks, Pam and Margie).
We are back at home in East Tennessee. It is so hot, pollen count is "very high" according to weather.com, and we are under an air quality alert. So no surprise that I woke up with a sinus headache this morning. My husband teaches a summer school course during the month of July and although I was happy to put the suitcases away for a few weeks, I believe I'd get them out again in a heartbeat if I could head somewhere with cool, clean air. Getting my 12,000 steps today will require three circuits at one of our malls. I detest doing this - for me, that's when exercise becomes something I "have" to do rather than the pleasurable activity it normally is. I had planned a hike to Gregory Bald in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park tomorrow with some friends from church, but after discussing it yesterday, we decided to cancel. The hike is 11 miles and with predicted temps of 94, it neither sounded fun or safe. Hiking is my #1 favorite activity. Rest assured, it is hard, REALLY hard, for me to cancel a planned hike. Gregory Bald boasts one of the largest concentrations of Flame Azalea in the entire world and when they bloom in mid-June, it is a sight that defies description. I am sad to miss it this year.
I have some goals to accomplish this week, two of which are to do some more work on this blog and learn how to post pictures. Shouldn't be difficult for me, just need some time to work on it. Since I've been out of town most of the last five weeks, I have several friends whom I need to meet (for coffee, of course) and get caught up on what's been happening in their lives. Fortunately, mine will slow down considerably when my husband begins his class.

YOU READ IT HERE FIRST: Police from four Bergen County towns teamed up to arrest two Tenafly brothers last night and seize 3½ pounds of marijuana, four ounces of cocaine, 40 prescription pills and $16,000 in cash.
The first arrest came around 6 o'clock last night when Tenafly police — assisted by Dumont, Cresskill and Bergenfield police, along with agents from the DEA — concluded a several-month investigation by taking 28-year-old Keith Santoli into custody at his County Road home, Detective Capt. Michael deMoncada told CLIFFVIEW PILOT .
He was carrying more than an ounce of cocaine, deMoncada said.
The strike force then hit the Harcourt Avenue home of Jacob Santoli — and found him about to drive off with an extra-large duffel bag filled with six backpacks, each containing drugs ranging from pot to pills to cocaine, along with drug paraphernalia, the captain said.
"Without the investigative teamwork of several agencies and the actions of quick-thinking of detectives, these drugs may have already been sold across Bergen County," deMoncada told CLIFFVIEW PILOT .
"Although we do not believe these two drug dealers were specifically targeting school-aged children, it should be noted that they were both conducting these activities within relatively close proximity to two public schools," he added. "We are grateful that our officers could get these drugs off of the street before they did any harm.
"It was a truly great job by all involved."
The Santolis were being held on $40,000 each in the Bergen County Jail, charged with the sale and possession of the various drugs within a school zone.
"The Tenafly Police Department would like to thank the Dumont, Cresskill, and Bergenfield Police Departments, along with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency for their assistance in making this investigation a success," deMoncada said.
Anyone can report drug activity in his or her neighborhood to local police. The calls will be kept confidential, authorities said.

John A. Bell III, farm's founder, dies at 88
LEXINGTON, Ky. - John A. Bell III, founder of Jonabell Farm in Lexington and the owner of the 1987 champion juvenile filly Epitome, died Wednesday in Lexington at the St. Joseph Hospital Hospice, according to published reports. Bell, 88, had pulmonary fibrosis.
Bell was born in Sewickley, Pa. A graduate of Princeton University, Bell also attended the Harvard School of Business. He moved to Lexington in 1946 after serving as an officer in the Army Medical Administrative Corps during World War II. In 1954, he purchased the original tract of land that would become Jonabell. The farm bred, raised, or sold such runners as 1967 Horse of the Year Damascus, 1991 Breeders' Cup Mile winner Opening Verse, 1981 Belmont Stakes winner Summing, and numerous others.
Bell himself campaigned Epitome, who was bred by his daughters Jessica Nicholson and Bennett Williams, and 1983 Spinster winner Try Something New.
Jonabell later stood 1978 Triple Crown winner Affirmed, 1994 Horse of the Year Holy Bull, sprint champions Housebuster and Cherokee Run, and, in 2007, champion 3-year-old Bernardini.
Bell sold Jonabell to Sheikh Mohammed al-Maktoum in 2001. Bell's son Jimmy is president of Darley USA.
Bell was a Jockey Club member, a director of Keeneland and the Breeders' Cup, and a trustee of the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association, among other positions. A past president of the Thoroughbred Club of America, he was its Honor Guest in 1971.
"You can search the world over and not find a more respected role model in the Thoroughbred industry than John Bell," said Keeneland president Nick Nicholson. "Unmatched for his integrity and respectful of opposing points of view, he was an enlightened leader at the regional, state, national, and international level who worked for the betterment of the industry while seeking no credit for himself."
Bell is survived by his wife, Jessica Gay Bell; daughters Jessica Nicholson and Bennett Williams; and sons John A. Bell IV and James Bell. Funeral arrangements were pending at Kerr Brothers Funeral Home in Lexington.
McIngvale adds consignors to suit
James McIngvale has added seven consignors as defendants in his lawsuit against bloodstock agents J.B. and Kevin McKathan and trainer Bob Baffert, and at least two of the new defendants protest their inclusion in the suit. The original complaint alleges that Baffert and the McKathans committed fraud by collecting secret commissions. The McKathans and Baffert have denied allegations of fraud, and the McKathans have filed a suit against McIngvale, claiming he failed to abide by an agreement to give them breeding rights to stallions.
In an amended complaint filed Jan. 26 in U.S. District Court in Galveston, Texas, McIngvale added consignors Celebrity Farms, Eaton Sales, Highclere Sales, Hill 'n' Dale Sales Agency, Donato Lanni, David McKathan, and Murray Smith to the suit. The amended complaint did not include specific allegations against the consignors except to highlight McIngvale's $950,000 purchase from Smith of the juvenile Work. In that purchase, part of the original complaint filed last September, McIngvale alleges Smith paid an undisclosed 10 percent commission to the McKathans.
The amended complaint alleges that consignors conspired with McIngvale's advisers "in arranging for the payment and receipt of unlawful secret commissions and kickbacks, as well as dual or fraudulent sales" on at least 19 transactions. The amended complaint includes a list of 19 transactions, but not all of the consignors on that list are now named as defendants, a discrepancy that McIngvale's attorneys were unavailable to explain on Thursday.
Not all of the consignors named in the suit could be reached for comment. Tom Van Meter of Eaton Sales and John Sikura of Hill 'n' Dale are vigorously protesting their inclusions as defendants.
"I've not been made aware of any allegations, therefore I cannot respond to innuendo," Sikura said. "I will say categorically that Mr. McIngvale has never bought a horse that I have owned. He did purchase a horse from a client of mine five years ago, a horse in which I had no ownership interest. I was completely forthcoming with all the details of that sale."
Van Meter said that Eaton, which he co-owns with Reiley McDonald, had been contacted by McIngvale's attorneys in September and "we responded at that time that Eaton, myself, and Reiley were not involved in any way" in fraudulent behavior.
