I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. I'm a little cranky, kids. It'll pass.
In the meantime, you can read a sunnier post of mine on Burt's Stache. You know you want to.

Equal portions of joy and sorrow fill my life bank, each precipitated by decisions made at specific moments in my personal history. Mid-life arrives in due season with wisdom-miles traveled and tolls paid. How might such wisdom have impacted my youthful choices were I able to advise me?
Dear Young Me,
Embrace this truth: You are not of this world.
You are made in the unique mold of an artist. A poet. With eyes to see things often missed by others. You know you are different in the innermost parts of your soul and spirit. This is a treasured gift from God who created you for greater things.
Contrary to a misguided appraisal of yourself, you are not a misfit. You are, in fact, perfectly fitted to the call God has placed on your life. Seek Him in your youth! Settle for nothing less than that which nurtures His call. You have permission to fill your life with things to produce the fulfillment of His purposes for your life. Never doubt that Divine permission, even when voices of convention try to undermine it.
I am proud of how you stick to your vision as a creative communicator – though you have had precious little in your young life to mentor you in the fullness of your raw gifts. You have endured ridicule and been passed over socially in your steadfastness to the passion of your calling. Even so, in secret you nurse open wounds, finding little relief from the cuts and scrapes of disapproval your peers use to rate you. Meditating on their condemnation, you learn to wear a smile on the surface, bandaging the fear and shame within. Anxiety becomes your companion.
I do not recommend this as a lifestyle. It delays joy and binds liberty, the platform from which your call to creativity is to be fashioned. It steals the fullness of your gift from developing with purpose earlier in life. You learn to hide your light, playing the games others require of you – even when you don't believe in them.
Seek the face of God! His approval is all that is required of you. Such a choice in the early years fortifies you against Shame, Anxiety and Fear, and provides direction for your life.
Choosing direction in life is a huge responsibility. But remember, you seek an elusive treasure – something you can't yet grasp. It's a good thing to cautiously commit to the convention of higher worldly education. Meandering about on the fringe as a part time student taking random classes, you allow room for on the job training and one-on-one mentoring experiences in other venues – Divinely appointed.
Take heart – you may not know what you're doing, but God does. Follow His lead, though it sometimes looks foolish to others. Endurance and hurdles force creative responses. You'll grow on this path, and in the journey, whether you know it or not, you'll be used to God's glory.
This circuitous route may leave you with little to show for it in earthly coffers. In God's economy, this earthly weakness makes you strong. Stand firm in that strength. Seek Godly mentors and service. Nothing can replace such richness in your life. Hold fast to creativity in every facet of living. Share the fullness of whatever God gives you with other kindred spirits struggling to walk in the same calling. You will know them when you see them.
In all things know Christ before you, Christ behind you, Christ beside you – on your left and your right. He will bring to pass a satisfied heart and peace in your purpose.

Fever Ray at the o2 Academy
Whilst it wasn't exactly music to bounce around the dance floor to, there's no denying just how inspiring the Fever Ray live show really was. For those not in the know, Fever Ray is Karin Dreijer, lead singer and one half of Swedish brother /sister duo The Knife. If you've spent many a night down at Wonky you'll be familiar with The Knife (naturally) and although the sounds of Fever Ray are a little darker at times, they are just as beautiful, although we are bias as we adore anything produced by the Dreijers.
Anyway, meanwhile back at the 02 Academy it was lasers, sinister costumes and smoke machines that made for a gig that made us feel as if we were front row at an abstract performance piece and that's exactly what Fever Ray has to offer. Like early Bjork if you will, this is music that comes complete with its own, warped little world and we couldn't stop thinking how lucky we were that Bristol had been blessed with such a radical presence. After all, we don't get to the theatre much so it made a rather delightful change from sweaty, drunken gigs that we seem to frequent.
It wasn't the busiest gig the academy has seen but that made it even more special. It was all about Fever Ray fans getting intimate for a show they knew they'd never forget and for those who'd been dragged down to the gig on a whim, it was a totally unforgettable experience. Fingers crossed for a second album or a new offering from The Knife soon. We want more.

Estimation of the effect of nonisotropically distributed energy on the apparent arrival time in correlations.

Abstract : Correlations of random seismic noise are now widely used to retrieve the Green-s function between two points. Whereas this technique provides useful results in tomography and monitoring studies, it is mainly limited by an uneven distribution of noise sources. In that case, theoretical requirements are not completely fulfilled and we may wonder how reliable the signals are reconstructed, in particular for the purpose of estimating traveltime from correlations. We present in this study a way to quantify effects of a non-isotropic noise field by estimating the arrival time error due to a particular non-isotropic distribution of recorded wave intensity. Our study is based on a theoretical prediction of this bias and we successfully test the theory by comparing the theoretical expectation to real measurements from seismic-prospecting data. In particular, we distinguish between the effects of source distribution and effects of medium heterogeneity between the sources and the region of receivers. We find relative errors in the order of a percent which may affect monitoring results especially where smaller relative velocity variations smaller than 10−3 for some applications are investigated. Finally we see that correlation of coda waves helps mitigate the effects of a non-isotropic field, hence making the estimation of traveltime quite stable irrespective of the source distribution.

"It is with no pleasure I have dipped my hands in the corruption here exposed. Somebody must show that the Afro-American race is more sinned against than sinning, and it seems to have fallen upon me to do so. The awful death-roll that Judge Lynch is calling every week is appalling, not only because of the lives it takes, the rank cruelty and outrage to the victims, but because of the prejudice it fosters and the stain it places against the good name of a weak race."
-Ida B. Wells Southern Horrors: Lynch Law in All Its Phases
Police pursued Williams for an attempted robbery. For 15 minutes Williams repeatedly told officers he was having trouble breathing, until he died. Officers ignored his pleas for assistance until finally Derek stopped breathing. The coroners initially stated Derek died from natural causes. But upon learning about the officers' excessive use of force, Williams's death was classified as a homicide. Jsonline has diligently reported on Williams story, but it has taken the national media over a year to report his story. Be sure to check out their updates and follow his story as his family and community seeks justice. Below is the unsettling video of his plea with officers before he finally takes his last breath.

Well,,,,,from the looks of the lack of response there doesn't appear to be many boiled peanut cookers out there...maybe I belong to a small club? or maybe I'm a club of one? Now that wouldn't be a first...!
I'm going to go ahead and boil them, pack 'em up and hit the road....we're going on a trip next weekend,
I'm humming "on the road again" by Willie Nelson a lot lately.....I'm thinking at this point I should learn all the correct lyrics instead of making them up inside my head while humming....
I need to check the ol' wardrobe too....it's hot in Northern California in July and a summer skirt would be just the ticket.
These are the times I wish I enjoyed sewing - or that my Mom would sew, or daughter....or my neighbor who died several years back (she was glued to her machine) was still around....
Certainly there must be women who stay home who would like to earn some extra cash and sew for dopes like me that want all the cute stuff but have zero in the talent department with a sewing machine?
Well, I don't know of anyone so I'm busting out the Singer again - I want to make some pillowcases and pendants...how hard can that be? The pillowcases are for me....the pendants? Well, not sure on that one but I know I want one (super cute colors....I'll show you tonight after I go buy them today at lunch) and if it turns out half way cute I'm sure the Sicily kids will put it to good use at their next barbeque....
I'm thinking maybe two....one for the awning on the boat at the lake....another for the front split rail fence out in the front yard - that would make it three pendants needed...see how my mind works?
It's sooooo annoying.
Most people are happy making one project and be satisfied....I don't even like to sew and so far I'm thinking I should have three pendants!!! I do this with tableclothes too....I remember shopping at The Little Traveler (GREAT store in Geneva, Ill.) and buying three because I wanted one in every color available.
Okay, I only did that once thankfully, and still have all three - never use them anymore (not sure why) but they remind me of time spent with my Grandma and shopping at my favorite store. Maybe I should cut them up and make pendants? Recycle...Repurpose....?
Nope, I've found something better....got the idea from Michael at Inspired By Charm...love that guy!!!
Check out his blog...he's so talented and fun, I hope he'll keep his B&B for another 20 years to give me time to be a guest, he's not right around the corner from California and I don't see a trip in the near future.
I've found the bandanas in a BUNCH of colors and now I'm thinking a huge summer quilt for Zoe??? Placemats and Pendants together??? Yikes,,see what I mean? My mind goes WAY beyond my abilities....I find these cute bandanas for a buck and it turns into a quilt....and you know I'm going to buy one in EVERY color available....it's the tableclothes all over again!!!!
I really need to find someone who loves to sew - I just wish it was me.

Yay for sewing projects. Simple ones are very self gratifying. It is so much faster than knitting!!!

Yup, and I've got a great friend who is the "voice of reason" and she's advised I go with a summer throw blanket instead of the pendants...thankgoodness for level thinkers!

Hello from Orlando!! Hot, humid, rains (often with thunder/lightning) every afternoon, everything is green because of all the rain. Couldn't be more different from S. CA! Fireworks every night around 9 PM, so I feel right at home in my hotel! Hope we get to talk before your trip this weekend...

Educating Rhian…
Dr. Frank Bryant: I made rather a night of it last night so they're giving me a holiday. Two years in Australia.
Rita: Did you bugger the Bursar?
Dr. Frank Bryant: Metaphorically
Educating Rita
Fredrick Hayek (not a man I like) coined the terms 'knowledge economy' to describe a system where information about anything is sold as a commodity. We can all remember the burgeoning in the 1990s of cross-over enterprises in landscaped obscurity around our universities. All grassy humps and low-slung buildings.
Where knowledge that has no immediately apparent economic value is seen a valueless, the barbarians have arrived at the gate. But there is a huge up-side to crossover research for nimble, clever nations like ours. Our own research-driven industries would offer powerful levels of control as Welsh people became essential to new technologies – not eminently sack-able from ill-paid and environmentally destructive jobs.
Some of these are already with us… In Llanberis, Euro-DPC developed medical testing kits that were good enough to attract the attentions of Siemens. More unusually, when they were bought out, not only did the company stay, but it expanded to make the most of local expertise! At Biopharm in Pontarddulais they've been breeding medical leeches for 20 years that are used worldwide in advanced surgery.
This month's unveiling of the Welsh Government's Economic Development Strategy has some important things to say about the failure of previous Labour administrations to jump start our economy. It also makes a break with the previous direction by focusing on funding research and development. But the publication of the strategy also throws into relief a huge problem in keeping and using our brain power and that is the tiny share of UK research council spending that our Universities receive.
There are 7 UK Research Councils that aim to promote good research that benefits the economy. So what does Wales gain? Of £700 million spent by the Medical Research Council last year, 2.2% was spent in Wales!
The issue is that that Research Council money is not subject to any mechanism that distributes it by head of population - or even, whisper it quietly – according to need…
Research money needs to be distributed to the most able researchers but it is also distributed to meet government priorities. We already have different priorities than England's. So why should our Welsh institutions not bid for a proportion of public money to meet our priorities and build own economy?
If just the Medical Research Council's money was subject to the Barnett formula, we would receive 5.6% of the total spend - £40 million last year alone! Compare that with the £60 million annual deficit that Welsh universities recently told the Welsh Affairs Select Committee that they face. I'm not suggesting that research money should be used for anything other than research, but we need fairness in allocating it or our Universities won't be able to do serious research at all.
The need for fair funding for research is urgent. Swansea University's supercomputer Blue C can make research faster and more powerful. It needs to be used to its full potential by talented local researchers in the next few years, before the technology is over-taken. But Swansea, like all our Welsh universities is fighting against a system that rewards previous success and that responds to priorities that aren't necessarily our own.
Did we bugger the Bursar? I'd say it was the other way around.

Raped and pillaged is probably a more descriptive and accurate statement of what often happens to Wales economically.ReplyDelete
Time after time whenever a downturn hits England, Wales suffers, England sneezes and Wales catches the cold It was ever so. Why should it change? How can we prevent the constant cycle of boom and bust to coin a phrase?
It will never change if the Welsh economy relies on handouts from England whether from the Barnett or any other formula.
Uncomfortable as it may seem making Wales artificially attractive through building or subsidisation is not the answer, although any funding should be gratefully accepted.
It is interesting to note that the Technium Project designed to attract Hi Tech business throughout Wales by providing the buildings for these companies has proved to be, I was going to say a glorious failure but that may be too harsh, disappointing in the creation of jobs for example in Llanelli 27 jobs created as opposed to 800 hoped for, but then what do you expect trying to attract jobs from a beleaguered economy?
The key is to play to our strengths and create an economy that is not only based in Wales but is also created in Wales and the wealth created is re-invested in Wales.
It is pointless to attract money into Wales and then not to use the benefits of this money by having grand building projects and then using the skill imported from outside Wales.
The prime objective must be to create jobs in the community and not just because it is the cheapest labour for miles around but because it is the best.
We all need to move away from the Consumer Led, Service Centre economics of the past and arrive at a position where Wales is the place to come to get the ideas, new industries, new inventions, re-vitalised mineral usage, new fashion, fresh design, farm produced products, financial services, top quality goods, a quality tourism experience, electricity production through solar, wind and tidal energies, engineering expertise etc., the list could be endless.
Some of this may seem isolationist but you have to be successful internally before you can be successful externally.
A question you might want to consider is how we can survive if we don't have electricity, or computers, if we run out of food, run out of water. A doomsday scenario? Not according to our scientists.
Perhaps what we should be doing is assuming that it could well happen and that we should prepare for it by creating the industries and infrastructure to allow us to not only survive but to thrive in a changing climate - saline plants, electric supply, food production etc. Wales could become a leader in this field and if doesn't happen the surplus could be sold off making the country self reliant.
So Cross Over Technology is key but it doesn't only have to be at the University Level. We seem to think that it is only at the highest levels that we need to concentrate our energies for new ideas, new efficiencies in production techniques by using the experiences of the workforce and analysing it productively.
Information Technology has been over hyped over the past 40 years and it does not create original thought.
It is however the interpretation of the data processed that is key and computers cannot do this but we can.
As with the Technium Project or the Super Computer at Swansea University, it is not good enough to only provide the environment for success you also have to drive it.
If it doesn't come from within then Wales will always be holding out the begging bowl expecting "just rights" which will not materialise.

Saw my sister in a dance show tonight. (Go Joyce! Wooo!)
Driving home, I listened to one of those 80s shows on the radio, and it took me back.
In the 80s, I was in this summer program called Teenage Drama Workshop, for all us little Theatre Geeks. The program was geared to High School students and took place at a nearby college campus. We'd rehearse all summer and perform children's theatre shows at the end of the year. We got the chance to perform (on a real college stage in front of a real paying audience!) and the little kids got some (semi-)decent entertainment. Win/win.
But the Workshop wasn't all rehearsal -- it was also CLASSES. Every morning, we'd have classes in Drama, Improvisation ... and Dance.
I am not a dancer. My sister is the dancer. (I'm the lawyer. We decided early on how to divvy up the tasks.) But Dance was a mandatory class. So (this being the 80s) I showed up every day in one of them leotards that was kinda half-suspenders so you wore it over a shirt, and some stirrup tights, and I put on my dancin' shoes.
The dance class took place on the stage of the big theatre at the college. We all lined up on the stage -- there were four rows of us. (I guess this is traditional in dance classes.) Every once in awhile, the instructor would assign us into rows, but it never stayed that way for long. Even when she'd purposely tell two lines to switch places (to bring the kids in back to the front, and vice-versa), we'd eventually settle back down into our favorite positions. People had places they liked to dance, and there really wasn't much the teacher could do about it.
I fell naturally into the second line. I wasn't a good enough dancer to be in the first line -- and even if I was, I wasn't confident enough to dance in the front line -- which, when you think about it, means I wasn't a good enough dancer, because confidence is surely a part of dance. But I was never sure that I knew the routine well enough, and I always wanted to be behind someone who DID. Besides, when I was in the second row, I was behind the really GOOD dancers, and I could actually learn something from them.
When I joined the class, my teacher -- to my great annoyance -- put me in the fourth row. I'm useless in the fourth row. There are three rows of people between me and the teacher, so I can't see her well enough to learn the combination. And there are two rows of people between me and the good dancers, so I can't see them well enough to pick anything up. When you're in the fourth row, you've really only got a good view of the third row of dancers, and they don't know what they're doing either. Basically, if you put me in the fourth row, I will become a fourth row dancer, which isn't any good for either of us.
So, the teacher would generally assign me to the fourth row, and by about ten minutes into class I would have woven my way back up to the second row. It was never difficult to do -- there were kids in the second row who preferred to be farther back, so the rearrangement happened sort of naturally. (Nobody ever said a word; we just danced on over to where we thought we belonged.)
And then, one day, we were taught a combination to a particular song (which I just heard on the radio driving home from my sister's show tonight). And it was a bit of a lengthy combination, but I got it and -- unlike nearly every other combination -- I knew I got this one. As it turned out, I was one of the only people in the class who did, and as the music played, the six girls in the front line missed beats, stumbled, and otherwise dropped out. Usually, when this happened (as it did, from time to time), everyone else stopped too, because we were all following those six. This time, I didn't stop. Like I said, I knew this combination and I knew I knew it, so I didn't really see any reason to stop dancing, even though I was pretty much the only one who still was.
The combination ended, and I stopped on the beat. My teacher -- my freakin' teacher, who had taught me for something like six weeks by now, looked at me with surprise and said, "[NZ], I didn't know you could dance."
She put me in the second row for the rest of the summer.

I know I am going to have to think about how each region is the same or different in order to decide where the object would most likely be found. I know that the fruits in the basket grow on trees and that trees need fertile soil in order to grow, as does corn. The soil in the Atlantic Coastal Plain is fertile but it is very light and airy like sand. I am not sure how well fruit trees would grow there. I have seen a lot of corn growing on my way to the beach, but I haven't seen a lot of fruit trees or orchards. The soil in the Piedmont Plateau is rocky but very fertile. I know that there are a lot of trees in that region. I think you might find the objects in the basket growing on the Piedmont Plateau. I should think about the Appalachian region before I make my final decision. I don't think you would find cornfields in the mountains. All the cornfields I have seen are on flat land. The fruit must be found in the Piedmont Plateau region. The corn could be found in the Piedmont Plateau or the Coastal Plains Region.

Books are mostly via Amazon, and there are a plethora. Just have to be able to charge your reading device - and not drop it in the water!
There is some room to spread out, but really, that's what beaches are for :)
Fresh fruit will get to me, when we are away from places that have it. But we will manage.
I'm looking forward to trails on various islands. Lot's of places that need to be hiked!
Annnd, we will take fold-up bikes with us.
There are ways around everything. It's fun to figure it all out :)

'Pork' prosecutors: Outnumbered, but not outgunned
"It's a prosecutor's dream case, and a defense nightmare," said Deputy Ombudsman for Luzon Gerard Mosquera, of the cases involving the pork barrel scam, which has implicated several high-profile politicians and lawmakers, among them Senators Juan Ponce Enrile, Bong Revilla and Jinggoy Estrada.
Despite the online bashing that the team constantly endures from a public impatient with the glacial pace of court proceedings, the head of the prosecution panel said he believed "the case will be won based on evidence, and we have the evidence."
The particular challenge they have to face, said Christine Marallag-Batacan, a member of the Ombudsman's team handling the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) scam cases, is "facing the high-caliber lawyers" of the powerful politicians involved in the cases, and being outclassed by the technology their well-funded adversaries have at their disposal.
"Imagine facing three law firms that has at least three high-profile lawyers each," Batacan said of the three-member prosecution team usually fielded at each hearing.
"And while we (leaf through) our papers, these [defense lawyers] scroll down (their tablets) to read the pleadings," she added.
"It's quite a spectacle when you see (all those defense lawyers) in court. Sometimes the court just asks them to appoint a captain," confirms Ryan Hartzell Balisacan of the intimidating scene that their outnumbered team contends with. At 31, Balisacan is one of the youngest member of the PDAF team.
But while outnumbered, they are not outgunned, the Ombudsman's team declared.
They have in fact been winning points in the lopsided court battle to try one of the biggest corruption cases that this scandal-weary nation had ever seen.
Some one and a half years since the start of proceedings, the 35-member PDAF team is counting on the strength of its evidence to cope with what is expected to be a tedious trial of eight graft, plunder and malversation cases against several accused.
Already, the team had scored victories at the preliminary stage and bail hearings at the Sandiganbayan, where the alleged brains, businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles and her cohorts, have been accused of funneling taxpayer money into bogus nongovernment organizations.
Also on trial are Napoles' alleged accomplices in government: Senators Enrile, Revilla Jr., and Jinggoy and five former members of the House of Representatives: Masbate Gov. Rizalina Seachon-Lanete, Edgar Valdez of the Association of Philippine Electric Cooperatives, Rodolfo Plaza of Agusan del Sur, Samuel Dangwa of Benguet, and Constantino Jaraula of Cagayan de Oro City.
Of the accused senators, only Enrile had been granted bail through the controversial Supreme Court ruling that cited humanitarian reasons for the exception from detention rules.
Most recently, the Ombudsman won the antigraft court's favor when the latter junked Estrada's bail plea on Jan. 7, citing prosecution evidence that Estrada was alongside Napoles "at the apex of the PDAF scam."
"We're winning these cases… The only incidents that had not gone the prosecution's way were the motions to transfer the accused to a regular jail," said Mosquera.
"But, practically, 90 percent of the incidents have gone the prosecution's way…Our evidence is strong, our witnesses are all complete, our documents are all intact. We have a very strong case, a good set of prosecutors and a good strategy," he added.
According to the website of the Office of the Ombudsman, the independent office headed by the stern former Supreme Court Associate Justice Conchita Carpio Morales, scored a
75-percent conviction rate in cases it had handled as of September 2015.
Such relative success is a little known fact to the public, said Batacan, adding that people and the media could sometimes be unfair in judging the capabilities of government prosecutors.
"It's like the public is always too quick to judge against the prosecutors. Their general impression is [that] prosecutors are slow…but they don't really see what happens in court," added the acting director at one of the Ombudsman's prosecution bureaus.
"In the court, there will be arguments. When a justice states a ruling, it's usually done in high pitch…and we cannot respond the same way. So for an observer, it might come off that the justice is angry. But (that's) normal," said Deputy Special Prosecutor Manuel Soriano Jr.
But they understand how much the public wants to see results, the prosecutors added. And already, hearings on the PDAF cases are being held thrice a week, more frequently than other cases.
"The public wants convictions because in their eyes, these (people) stole our money. But why are the cases taking too long?" asked Joefferson Toribio, another PDAF team member.
"Sometimes, the delays are attributed to us when in fact it's the usual judicial proceeding," Toribio said, adding that the defense regularly files motions for delay in court.
Personal cost
The PDAF cases have also exacted a heavy personal cost from these mostly young team members.
Soriano, a father of three, said he missed sharing quality time with his young family, while Batacan had to turn down friends' invitations to book piso-fare flights. Most of the prosecutors also have to work through the night, on weekends and holidays to finish the pleadings and prepare for the hearings.
"I've had so many sleepless nights, especially after reading the negative (media) reports," said Soriano.
Despite the hurt and the exhaustion, everything has been worth it, the team said.
"I don't want to be too melodramatic about it, but when you like what you're doing, it doesn't really feel like work," said Balisacan, who took a massive pay cut after opting out of a private law firm.
"No offense to those in the private sector, but here, our concept of 'client' is more amorphous. Because our client is the Republic of the Philippines," he added.

What is Religion?
Here is a view from the edX course I'm taking in The Ancient Greek Hero:
00§12. In the Classical period, an authoritative source goes on record to say that Homer and Hesiod are the foundation for all civilization. That source is the historian Herodotus, who lived in the fifth century BCE. According to Herodotus (2.53.1-3), Homer and Hesiod are the repository of knowledge that provides the basics of education for all Hellenes. [8] And such basics, as we will see in this book, are conceived primarily in terms of religion, which requires an overall knowledge of the forms and the functions of the gods.
00§13. Here I make two points about the historical realities of ancient Greek religion:
1. When we apply the term religion to such traditional practices as the worship of gods in the classical period of Greek civilization as also in earlier periods, we need to think of such practices in terms of an interaction between myth and ritual. Here is a quick working definition of myth and ritual together. Ritual is doing things and saying things in a way that is considered sacred. Myth is saying things in a way that is also considered sacred. So ritual frames myth.
Perhaps Arun (or anybody else) might critique this from the point of view of "Western Religion" vs. Hinduism.

KISSES IN THE WIND (The Waiting Child's Lullabye)
I hold you in my heart and touch you in my dreams.
You are here each day with me, at least that's how it seems.
I know you wonder where we are... what's taking us so long.
But remember child, I love you so and God will keep you strong.
Now go outside and feel the breeze and let it touch your skin...
Because tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.
May God hold you in His hand until I can be with you.
I promise you, my darling, I'm doing all that I can do.
Very soon, you'll have a family for real, not just pretend.
But for tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.
May God wrap you in His arms and hold you very tight.
And let the angels bring the kisses that I send to you each night.
A friend of ours e-mailed me this lullaby yesterday. I tried to find it on YouTube or anywhere on the internet that gave a tune to the song. It was sweet of her to think of us and I think right about now I need a lullaby. My friends have really reached out to me this past month which has been helpful because I've been increasingly down recently.
I go through my ups and downs. Times where I feel like I finally am OK with waiting knowing that MY baby will come to me when s/he finally comes into this world. While other days I honestly can't imagine waiting another day or even another hour. I know it sounds dramatic but its true. I looked back again this month at last Septembers posts and at that point we were still going through the intrusion of the home study process. I felt naked and examined and was worried I might not be found fit to be a parent because we didn't make enough or our house wasn't clean enough. Now a year later we wait which I thought would be the easy part. I know once I have my baby in my arms it wont be so bad because I will know its MY baby but it doesn't make the wait any easier.
I think back to when we were house hunting and we felt like we would NEVER find a house but we did and now I'd be regretful if we lived in any of the other homes we looked at. Its easy in hind sight to say well seven months of house hunting wasn't so bad now was it? but I know I shed a tear or two of frustrated tears at the time.

5 ways that creativity helps improve your health
Let's admit it. We're all a little guilty of getting caught up in day-to-day chaos and forgetting how important it can be to take a moment and do something GOOD for ourselves. No, not hitting the gym or eating better (although both are great options), but rather flexing our creative muscles.
Ask yourself. How often do you get to be creative? How important is creativity in your life?
You may not have thought much about creativity when it comes to your health, but there are many studies out there that show a strong connection between creativity and health.
Here are five of the many ways that creativity improves your health.
1. It relieves stress and improves moods
Ever find yourself getting a little salty after a long day? Don't we all. Next time you do, get creative. Research has shown that expressing creativity can relieve stress and improve your mood. So next time you're feeling the workweek blues, try challenging your cooking skills with a fun new recipe.
2. It increases empathy, tolerance, and feelings of love
We know how difficult it can be to bite your tongue when a friend tries to talk politics. Why not make it a little easier by mixing things up?
Research shows that expressing creativity releases dopamine and activates the pleasure center in your brain, enabling you to feel more relaxed and empathetic. Instead of biting your tongue, sip on a cocktail while you and your friend enjoy a fun nite out planting creating your own terrariums at Plant Nite.
3. It improves memory
Do you feel like your memory is getting worse and worse as you get older? Exercising creativity can help reverse that.
Studies have shown that getting creative increases and renews brain function, improving long and short-term memory, content retention, and attention span. Save your memories while improving your memory—try scrapbooking!
4. It boosts self-esteem and provides a sense of accomplishment
We all appreciate a little self-esteem boost every now and then. Well, researchers have found that getting creative can actually boost self-esteem and provide a sense of accomplishment.
Creativity allows for natural self-expression and the ability to produce an end product you can feel proud of—no matter how much your painting of a road may appear dangerously unrealistic. And if you're looking to improve your creative #skillz, join us at Paint Nite!
Our artists take what may seem like intimidating paintings and break them down to help you paint a new masterpiece that'll boost your self-esteem through the roof.
5. It improves immune system functioning
Constantly feeling like you're getting sick? Maybe you're not expressing your creativity as much as you should. Research has shown that getting creative can actually improve immune system functioning.
So next time you're feeling sick, resist the urge to Netflix and Chill and try a more productive way to get over your sickness. We suggest trying out some relaxing activities such as crocheting or adult coloring books.

I use Crystal Report XI and I created a report. Now I want to put sort option on 4 fields. I tried many ways but couldn't find a solution .please help me .
Hi Niloufar,
Could you please elaborate of what you're trying to do?
If you're simply trying to sort the report on four specific fields, go to the Record Sort Expert and add the four fields to the sort list.
Hello ,
I have a report based on Commodity( with Count , Amount , Margine , margine% ) , now it is sorted by Commodity but I want to give the chance to the user that sort it based on amount or even margine% when they run the report .
I made a parameter ( drop down with these three items : commodity , amount , margine%) , then I Created a formula and this is the code :
If {?Sort - COMMODITY} Then {Command.COMMODITY} Else If {?Sort - INVOICE_AMT} Then TOTEXT({Command.INVOICE_AMT}) Else TOTEXT({@Margin%})
then I went to Record Sort Expert but I don't have my formula here :(:(:(
Thank You

Well, I took the plunge - sort of - by purchasing some more Marvel Super Hero Figures. But really, what better way to celebrate a day Toys & Stuff has set aside for the Comics, in toy form of course. Today on Sunday Comics Sunday we have the 2011 Hasbro Comic Series #02 Captain America Paratrooper Dive. Now, this toy is supposed to represent a character which appeared in the comic but it is so close to what was presented in the movie, "Captain America, The First Avenger" that it still becomes a nice reminder of that movie experience. The biggest difference is of course the weapon the toy Captain is wielding, being of a more modern outline. The set comes with a 13 1/5" (34.3cm) diameter parachute with strings attached which in turn attaches to Captain America's harness. The idea is the fold the parachute, wrap the string around it a few times, and give it a hardy toss into the air and watch him float to the ground. Personally, I haven't yet tried it so I can't report how well it works. There is one small flaw to this set: the edges of the fabric parachute aren't finished (hemmed). If you look closely at the photos you can see where threads are already starting to separate. This is a part of the toy which won't last long - what a shame, because it's a neat toy. I'm not a seamstress, I don't work with fabric, so off-hand I have no suggestions as to how to remedy this.
Also featured in today's blog is a neat item most people will never get the chance to see. Here's the background. About two years ago, if my imperfect memory serves me well, the Army and Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES - pronounced 'A-fees') started passing out, free-of -charge at the register - mini- comics of Marvel Super Heroes. I call them mini-comics as they were only a few pages long, not full blown graphic novels. All the artwork was original and they were exclusive to AAFES customers. Now, dummy me, I have already gotten rid of these first issues, having done so prior to starting my blog. Crap! Oh well. Not all of the these freebies are comics. The cover shown below is actually from a 14pg coloring book which is essentially one long advertisement for AAFES with a few pages devoted to AAFES history dating back to the American Civil War. You'll notice the top of the cover is cut off - not the result of a bad scan, the original wasn't cut properly. If I come up with more I'll post them but today's selection was a natural as it features Captain America. So, without further ado, let's get on to the the photos - Enjoy!
An extract from the coloring book. here's something you won't see every day; Captain America, Iron Man, and Thor at a burger burn!

It's only taken poor Fefe Dobson seven years to release a follow-up to her self-titled debut. After getting dropped from her label Island Def Jam & having her sophomore album Sunday Love (which was set to include my favorite song by her to date, "Don't Let It Go To Your Head", which has since been released by Jordin Sparks) shelved, Fefe was getting her songs featured on TV left & right, resulting in her former label taking notice, re-signing her, & finally releasing a second album from the pop-rocker. Joy shows that Fefe has done a considerable amount of growing since 2003 & deserves at least as much, if not more, success than she had back then.
1. "Ghost": This infectious single had hit written all over it & the label should've made it happen! 5/5
2. "Thanks For Nothing": A fun uptempo... ya! 4.5/5
3. "Stuttering": One of my favorite writers, Claude Kelly, did his thing with this one. Catchy as it is, everyone would have it stuck in their heads... if L.A. would just have her perform it somewhere! 5/5
4. "Can't Breathe": This epic ballad is so good, it sounds like a Ryan Tedder production. I also have to point out that there are times here when Fefe sounds just like her fellow Canadian Avril Lavigne--& that's a very good thing! 5/5
5. "You B****": Uptempos with attitude = the best kind. 4.5/5
6. "Didn't See You Coming": Unfortunately, the streak ends here. This stripped-down track falls pretty flat. 2/5
7. "Watch Me Move": This was my first taste of Joy & it sure had me take notice! It may be short--& ancient at this point--but that's what the repeat button's for..! 5/5
8. "I Want You": Though not horrible, I'm not a big fan of this one. What can I say? Just not my cup of tea. 2.5/5
9. "I'm A Lady": This track has a retro vibe to it, which isn't my favorite, but I don't mind it in small doses. 3.5/5
10. "In Your Touch": Fefe slows it down with another retro track here, but one retro song was about enough for me. It's really noisy too. 2/5
11. "Set Me Free": There's a little something endearing about this slow jam... but not much. 2.5/5
12. "Joy": Cute. 3.5/5
While Joy is pretty hit-&-miss, Fefe's a talented gal & there are some hits on here just waiting to be noticed! Not to mention that even better than some of the tracks on the album are the bonus tracks from the iTunes deluxe edition "I Made Out With Your Boyfriend" & "Johnny Cash". If you're a fan of Avril Lavigne's better work or you just want pop music with the substance of rock, try Fefe Dobson on for size!
Rating: 3.5/5 Stars

text: Considering the consequences of defaulting on the US debt, and the intransigence of the modern Hitler Youth which goes by the name of the Tea Party ("T" for Treason Party: archly cynical, low-class bankers' prostitutes posing as patriots), and that of their ignorant base, it seems to me that this would be an opportunity for Obama to declare that Congress cannot be allowed to make this decision, and to impose one himself. The question then is what Congress would do, since impeachment has been off the table since Pelosi single-handedly stripped the Constitution of its protection against an out-of-control executive by simply saying, in a real bitchy voice, that it's "off the table." That's all it took. Our founders would be so proud of us.
