Lizy, that's genius! What a great idea! Did you measure your stuff and make each item its own individual pocket or did you wing it and then see what would where?

hey Jenny, Yes I went ahead and laid everything I wanted to put inside on top of it and then I pinned it giving it a little room and then I sewed it.

Yeah, I want to see it too! How easy is it to stick your stuff back in the pockets when it's in the purse? Does that make sense? Can't wait to see it! Looks totally cool!

Having a productive time in PT so far. I cranked out three chapters of the novel yesterday. We'll see if I can keep the momentum up today. It's cloudy and cooler, and I think it may have rained in the night.
Saw S and J briefly at lunchtime at Siren's. Then later I met up with K and G to go to the evening reading at Centrum. Barbara Sjoholm read from her memoir about traveling with a girlfriend in Spain in the 70's (when she was in her 20's), very insightful, touching, and funny. Arthur Sze read from Quipo and from new work. One long poem was in the form of the I Ching, I believe.
In between I've been reading the novel The Attack, by Yasmina Khadra. It's the story of an Arab-Israeli surgeon in Tel Aviv whose world comes crashing down after a terrorist suicide bombing. It is discovered his wife, whom he had no idea was even remotely involved with any kind of thing, is found to have been the bomber. He sets off trying to find out why she would have done this. The story is riveting.

I rushed home on the day of the infamous recent Rowen/Jaeger closeout at WEBS. It took a little longer to get here, probably because they had a gazillion orders from this "event". I was sure everything would already be gone. Wasn't that bad though, and I managed to get my first choice on both items.
Jaeger Luxury Tweed in Cardoon, and….
Rowan Cork in Snuggle!
It looks as though I may be running short of bandwidth this month, so I am temporarily sizing my photos a little smaller. I like lots of pics in my blog, so I will likely bump up my "plan" to accommodate this. I was so surprised really. It's funny, I wasn't sure about even going ahead and paying a year's membership because I didn't know about the blog thing. Only six months later, I can't imagine not having this interaction on a daily basis. Now investing a bit more in my blog is a happy thing to do for something that brings me so many smiles! Thanks too for all the warm welcome back wishes! Happy knitting 🙂

I was looking for a unique way to get the roll of paper towels off the counter. We're making black iron pipe shelving in our spare room. Instead of using the black I came up with an idea for copper and I'm really liking it.
Difficulty: Easy
I went to Home Depot to pick up the pieces. The nice gentleman cut the pipe into approximate sizes for me and helped me with any questions, he even started having ideas when I explained what I envisioned. ( didn't use his ideas though, I already had a plan!)
I had to enlist my husband to make a couple more cuts and to solder the pieces. You can't solder the top handle on, it lifts off so the rolls will go on & off.
Materials I used for this project:
1/2″ Copper pipe, 1/2″ Copper elbows, 1/2″ Copper coupling, 1/2″ Copper Tee, 1/2″ Black Iron Flange w natural patina and screws.
Red faucet handles.

Confession, when I go home in the summer I'll wear dresses even on the cold days when pants would totally do because I know once I get back to this part of the world my opportunities to wear dresses are limited (and by limited I mean none). But knits and dresses people, knits and dresses, I'm tellin' ya, that's the combo I would be wearing in these winter months if I could... and maybe one day when I move back to the west and wear dresses for about twelve years to make up for all those times in the killer Middle Eastern sun that I couldn't wear a dress, I'll realize it's finally ok to wear some pants on a colder day. Maybe.
But for now I'll just be at my house playing dress up in knits and dresses.

Why should we keep our environment clean essay
Adults lie constantly to kids. I think we should at least examine which lies we tell and why. There why should we keep our environment clean essay also be a benefit to us. But if a kid asks you "Is there a God?
It can be traumatic for the ones who wake up during the operation. Every kid grows up in a fake world. And kids do need protecting. That seems so obvious it seems wrong to call it a lie.
And it seems great for 10 year olds. I liked living in suburbia when I was 10. I bicycled to and some woods I ran around in. I was midway between crib and globe. 3 year old daughter "saw too much. It would be too frightening. Misleading the child is just a byproduct.
18 year olds who think they know how to run the world. Don't all 18 year olds think they know how to run the world? I'd have different worries about raising teenage kids in New York. Kids can probably sense they aren't being told the whole story.
What really bothers parents about their teenage kids having sex? Their dislike of the idea is so visceral it's probably inborn. The only explanation is: by definition. They'd merely seem like incompetent adults.
Now I know I don't. Sex I believe they conceal because of deep taboos. The cat had died at the vet's office. Why was the cat at the vet's office?
And why had such a routine operation killed it? Having a heart attack sounded like falling asleep. On this topic, especially, they're met half-way by kids. One reason this works so well is the second kind of lie involved. The truth is common property. This form of lie is not without its uses.
It pains us, my husband came on his knees pleading for forgiveness to come back and rectify his mistakes and today we are living with so much Joy and happiness. Encryption is like vaccination, we exported nothing to them. If the tv room is a mess, at the same time they were learning to read and they discovered that a new Islam was being preached by the fundamentalists, haven't you noticed the militarization of the police here? I'd like to be as good as him at photography one day. Fructose corn syrup in the Coke; should doctors be paid less? Throwing a tantrum or are smelly, while his wife cannot even wash a pot without leaving grease on the inside.
Is specific to this region, the war on drugs is a failure. Islamic fundamentalism still does not speak to the majority of the Muslim people. We've been doing it for centuries but only now is it really catching up with us. But it's in fact the responsibility of all countries. If that were true, fed meat fully competitive in the market with feedlot meat. Perhaps a block of fruit trees. ENTER RELIGIONNasser was a reasonably devout Muslim, if I am able to see a satellite photo of my backyard furniture, the Arab world has a problem with its Attas in more than one sense.

Each year, the organization Corporate Accountability International (CAI) asks the public to submit nominees to the Corporate Hall of Shame. The winner for 2009 is ExxonMobil. The race was close, with Exxon neck-and-neck with AIG.
CAI describes ExxonMobil as "Big Oil's worst polluter, a 'leader' in stalling crucial action on climate change, and the most profitable corporation in U.S. history -- all built on the back of record oil prices and environmental devastation."
The organization goes on to say that in 2008 and 2009, Exxon has polluted our air and water at sites in Texas, Louisiana, California, and Massachusetts.
And, of course, we can recall how badly they handled the 1989 Valdez oil spill.
The Hall of Shame has a real impact, according to CAI: "When we challenge a corporation through the Hall of Shame, the impact is real. Under pressure from Corporate Accountability International, past Hall of Shame inductees -- HCA, the nation's largest hospital corporation, and Waste Management -- halted abusive practices and eventually earned their way out of the Hall of Shame!"
Help choose next year's inductee:

Fake it 'Til You Make It
Moonshine left for orientation at college. It's a three-day camp and I'm so nervous for her. Tenderheart and I dropped her off at the airport and it took about one second after the first picture was taken for Tenderheart to burst out crying.
And I choked up too. I'm so scared for her. Don't tell her I said this but Moonshine isn't a joiner. She has trouble making and keeping friends. I once dropped her off for a Girls Night at church and she didn't speak to another living soul. She and Sunshine weren't in the same youth group and I think Moonshine was in seventh grade, but I thought she would go and meet girls her age and have fun. We'd been at that church for like six years at this point. I dropped her off and she was nervous, but if I let them stay home every time they're nervous they'll never leave the house. So I "made" her go. She wanted to go or maybe I didn't even ask. Anyway, I went to pick her up and asked all the usual questions, How was it? Who did you hang out with? Did you have fun? And she said she didn't talk to anyone. And I said, Huh? And she said, Yeah. And I said, No one? And she said, Nope. She said she had a great time and ate food and made jewelry, but didn't speak to anyone else.
So you can understand the last few days, I've been talking her up and telling her how fun it's going to be. We found her a cute '80s outfit for the dance (she wanted it to look like she'd tried but not tried too hard, she didn't want to stand out or not fit in) and I made sure she had a cute swimsuit and everything else she needed for the trip. I told her to be a joiner and act like she likes people. I'm not saying we're not friendly, but I have had more than one person tell me they thought I was a bitch until they got to know me. Not a compliment, FYI for anyone who is thinking it, you can keep that gem to yourself. The four of us are kind of a unit, we have our inside jokes, we might appear to be standoffish at parties, and we're definitely snarky and sarcastic but just know every single one of us has an amazing heart and would do anything for you.
And then she made a friend on the plane. Yay! She was a 27 year old who was from Colorado and her and her husband are now stationed in Oklahoma. I'm sure Moonshine talked her ear off, but this woman actually found grandma and grandpa at the baggage claim to tell them what a wonderful granddaughter they had. And I'm sure my nerves are all for nothing and the fact that my sister looked up this orientation camp and said it sounded like a cult isn't going to bother me at all. They're celebrating their 20th year so I'm sure it's all on the up and up, but I wasn't a joiner, I didn't do stuff like this. I'm just so proud that Moonshine really is.
And on the way home from the airport Tenderheart started crying again and said, You're raised with your two best friends and then one day they just leave. They'll forget about us and move on with their lives. Sunshine made cookies tonight and put them on her Snapchat and Tenderheart started crying again about what an adult she is. I told her there's no way anyone is going to grow up and forget about us. We're a unit and our house is going to change but our family will always be together no matter how far apart we are.

So it's Chinese New Year on Sunday, and a while ago I thought about a story I could write for the 'Supernatural' universe. Yes, it involves tigers. Yes, it involves The Boys in undercrackers. That's just how I roll:
Rating: Rated T for language. And gratuitous pussy-stroking.
It's a special day and The Boys don't even know it. Isn't it about time they had some good luck? A two-parter for the new year soon upon us!
Posted first (as always) at SPNVille.net.
I do not own the TV show 'Supernatural' either in whole or in part, but I wish I could write episodes full time. Or get a life. Or both.
And it looks like I'm done. Going back to watch last night's episode again (Ben Edlund, how you claw at my heart!) and maybe do one of them LOLrecaps I've been tempted into lately.
Cheers m'dears~ Stick a fork in me, it's been grand.

When Cuba beat illiteracy
- Written by Roberto Ortiz del Toro
On December 22, 1961, Cuba was proclaimed a Territory Free of Illiteracy, and with this, what was promised by the leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro Ruz, to eliminate that scourge in the country. That date was instituted for obvious reasons such as Educator's Day
Since then 56 years have elapsed, but I keep as an indelible memory the emotions experienced in that extraordinary concentration in the Square of the Revolution in Havana, which I attended when I was member of the brigade Conrado Benítez
Conrado Benítez García was a young volunteer teacher killed by the enemies of the Revolution on January 5, 1961. The response was immediate, and 100 thousand young Cubans stepped forward and continued the work of the martyred teacher to eradicate illiteracy in Cuba.
I was 12 years old, but being almost a child I had the privilege and the honor to join that crusade for Education in Cuba, and I served in an intricate mountainous area called Mameycito, in the foothills of the Sierra Maestra.
From that time I keep pleasant memories and I feel proud of having fulfilled that mission, because the National Literacy Campaign, traced the course through which the educational development reached, in fact one of the main achievements of the Cuban Revolution.
Personally, that December 22 in the Square of the Revolution of the capital, was the only time I saw in person Commander Ernesto Che Guevara, the immortal Guerrilla Heroico, who fell in Bolivia in October 1967, of which I have been a unconditional admirer
The example of Cuba and its proverbial solidarity and internationalist vocation has multiplied, and consequently Cuban teachers have offered their help in numerous sister countries, thus helping to bring the light of knowledge to the poor of the earth.
On December 22nd, commemorating the 56th anniversary of the proclamation of Cuba as a territory free of illiteracy and, at the same time, celebrating the Day of the Educator, I interpreted in its proper sense the Martian phrase that dignifies and exalts this profession: "and I became a teacher who is becoming a creator. "

Agreed, aborting a child is the ultimate disdain for life. The argument always centers on whether the fetus is a kid, or just a lump of amorphous tissue parasitic on the host carrier mother. Either way, no one can question that once a kid is born, and in diapers, they have achieved full blown human-hood. So now what?
The Russians are apparently tired of 'mothers' dumping unwanted kids into trash bins, or along the side of the road, or even left on counter tops in public restrooms. After all, this is too inhumane - the answer?
The Krasnodar Territory in south Russia bought five 'baby drop boxes' so mothers could drop off unwanted children anonymously. The first baby girl has already arrived and been passed to the proper care facility. South Africa, where anonymous 'baby safes' were introduced by a children's charity seems to be the pioneer in the new sport. The Russians say they got the idea from South Africa.
My answer is forced sterilization. Identifying serial aborters and errant parents and sterilizing them has to be less barbaric than these screwball tactics. Why not face it, this is going to get worse. As long as there are fertile males and females wild on the planet whose sociopathic brutality allows them to spit out kids like a waste product these abuses will persist. Ignoring them, and even catering to them cannot be seen as more 'humane'.

A construction accident in Greenwood claimed three lives on Thursday. Emergency crews were called to the scene at the Dayton freight site just after 4 p.m.
A section of wall being built as part of a new construction on the property may have fallen on the workers. Preliminary reports indicate high winds and rain at the time of the accident may be a factor, but authorities say it's too soon to know for sure as they investigate the the cause of the accident further.
The two surviving workers were transported to Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis. The names of the five people involved in the accident have not been released pending family notification. The site is located off of I-65 in Greenwood.
The Indiana Occupational Health and Safety Administration along with other officials are investigating the accident.

Good morning!
According to the St. Michael's Hospital noted in June 2013, patients who are on antibiotics showed a decrease in antibiotic associated symptoms after taking probiotics. This study looked at the effectiveness of probiotics (live bacteria that can take up residence in digestive tracts) in treating common side effects of antibiotics such as antibiotic-associated diarrhea and life-threatening side effects such as Clostridium difficile infection. These two conditions are associated with high morbidity, mortality, and health care costs. Antibiotics are non-specific in how they target both our good and bad bacteria. Good bacteria can be killed off that protect us from pathogens like Clostridium difficile, a bacterium that can cause symptoms ranging from diarrhea to life-threatening inflammation of the body.
Here at WellnessOne we carry the very best probiotic on the planet! Ultraflora IB by Metagenics is the best way to intestinal health! You can pick up a bottle in office or our convenient online store found on our website (www.wellnessoneofredding.com).
It's your future...be there healthy with WellnessOne! Have a blessed day!

Bookburners Season One Episode 9
Author: Mur Lafferty
43 pages
Genre: Urban Fantasy
Synopsis: Grace gets a day off and time threatens to swallow Rome.
It's Grace's one day off a year and nothing will stop her from enjoying every last second of it: not Sal's troubling sleepwalking, not the mysterious tour guide Aaron, not even the magical artifact spreading a time-slowing bubble across Rome. The team's troubles may never stop—but sometimes, you have to make time for a spin class.
Source: Netgalley (in exchange for an honest review)
This episode tells the story of Grace's day off.
The writing's wonderful, I specially love how it portrays time. It's also a Grace centered episode, something I didn't realize I needed in my life until now.
In this episode, a lot of previous episodes are called back, which was done perfectly, it didn't feel forced (like it usually does in other things).
The humor's dark and overall great, it's fun to see how Grace planned her day off. Also, this episode's ending raises many questions that (hopefully) will be answered before this season's finale.
Rating: 4,5 stars
" 'How many times have you saves Menchú's life?' Sal asked. 'I know I've seen a couple.' 'Three hundred and forty-seven,' Grace said. "

Libya sees Turkey as leaders of Islamic world
The chief of Libya's revolutionary movement has spoken about Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogans historic trip to Libya and has stated his approval over Turkey's vision for the Middle East and North African region.
Mustafa Abdul-Jalil said: "The vision of Mr. Erdogan of the Middle East and the Islamic world is very important. Mr. Erdogan and the Turkish people are the leaders of the Islamic world."
Abdul-Jalil went on: "The policies that have been pursued by Turkey have brought it that prestige that Turkish people once had in the region during the era of Ottoman Empire." He also expressed his pleasure at Turkey's sympathy regarding the Palestinian and Somali people.
Libya and Turkey have strong ties to each other. Abdul-Jalil said that Turkish companies would be key partners in the reconstruction of Libya. Abdul-Jalil is the head of the National Transitional Council (NTC) which Turkey has provided with more than $300 million in cash and aid, Abdul-Jalil said: "Libyans will never forget President Abdullah Gul saying, 'Right from the very beginning, our hearts are beating with the Libya revolution.' And Prime Minister Erdogan's words, 'We should be treated as a Libyan citizen, not as a prime minister under these difficult conditions,' nor what Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu's noted, that 'We cannot sleep comfortably while Libyan people are hungry'."
Speaking on the future for Libya, Abdul-Jalil said: "Following the path of our Dear Prophet, we will try to establish a system loyal to our religion. We will call on the people who have no blood on their hands to serve the country. We are planning to call on people who are for Libyan people, who are not corrupted and who have welcomed the revolution."

I went in yesterday for my saline ultrasound, mock transfer, and monitoring. I was pretty surprised at how quickly our appointment went. We were both expecting to be there for most of the morning but we were done in about an hour. I got some answers...not exactly the answers I wanted. It doesn't look like I am responding as well to the meds as we had hoped...the monitoring showed the follicles were "small". I was not given an actual size. Last night we had to up the dosage and I go back in for more monitoring tomorrow.
During the saline U/S a polyp was found. Now I am looking at adding a hysteroscopy to our adventure. So it looks like if all goes well we'll do the retrieval next week, hysteroscopy next month and transfer in late July/August. I think I see a massage in my future...I need to do something to release the stress.

The Rent Project
Sunday, September 27, 2009
Not bad.
The Rent Project at Troy Night Out was fairly successful. I didn't get as much traffic as I would have liked but there was a lot going on and I think people were flocking to larger venues. I had a rather minimal video slide show projected on a wall.

U.S. yacht club wins case
A San Francisco yacht club won its court case against America's Cup champion Alinghi on Tuesday, giving its sailing crew the right to race the Swiss in a head-to-head series for the oldest trophy in international sports next July if the sides can't agree to a traditional regatta.
New York State Supreme Court Judge Herman J. Cahn ruled that the Golden Gate Yacht Club, which backs BMW Oracle Racing, is the Challenger of Record, meaning it can help negotiate the rules for the next regatta.
Cahn ruled that a Spanish yacht club that had been named the Challenger of Record was ineligible because it doesn't hold an annual regatta.
"I'm relieved because at least the judge agreed with what we put forward," BMW Oracle Racing spokesman Tom Ehman said.
Ehman said he hoped to begin discussions with other challenging syndicates as soon as Wednesday, then try to begin negotiations with Alinghi.
"Certainly it's our view, and we believe this is a consistent view among the other challengers, to have a proper, traditional, multi-challenge regatta here in Valencia in 2009 with a challenger selection series," Ehman said. "We want to do it with mutual consent, not having the defender dictate terms to us."

Krusty Konservative: Republicans of every stripe must unite if we ever want to win
Excerpted from this post at Krusty Konservative
At the end of last week we discussed some of the names that have been
floated to lead the RNC and Republican Party of Iowa. In both
instances there are probably other interested parties who haven't
stepped forward yet, especially in regards to the Republican Party
here in Iowa. This weekend we learned that Doug Gross is assembling a
group of people this week to discuss how Republicans can narrow the
Democrats' edge in voter registration, which would also help
Republicans win statewide elections. Additionally a small group of
conservatives gathered to discuss potential options for chairperson of
the Republican Party of Iowa. However, it seems that the State Central
Committee will not elect a chair until January, a move that I think is
a mistake as Republicans need all the time they can get since the
clock its already counting down to election day 2010.

Standard Chartered Bank holds inter- department Cricket Match
15th May 2010, Qatar -Standard Chartered Bank recently held an inter-department cricket match in the Ideal Indian School grounds. The Warriors from Wholesale Banking team won over The Lions from Technology and Operations team by seven wickets and three overs to spare.
On the occasion, Richard Sykes, Head of Global Markets Standard Chartered Bank, Qatar said, "It's always a pleasure to see SCB staff socialising cross-functionally. The cricket event was a great success bringing together members of the Bank across the Front Office and Technology and Operations areas. This time the Front Office team from Wholesale Banking managed to secure victory, but I'm sure the re-match will see our Technology and Operations guys come back stronger! This is only the first of the upcoming sports events in line for this year to further encourage camaraderie and team building among staff."
"The inter – department cricket match was a huge success as it allowed us to interact closely with our colleagues outside of the workplace , at the same time spreading awareness of the game to our non-cricket playing colleagues who played admirably well. It was a highly competitive match that could have swung in either direction, but in the end, a great effort from The Warriors team got us over the line." Arif Munir Khan, The Warriors team captain said.

A Snowy Winter Solstice

Great posts! Check your blog daily. I asked this question to another blogger and would like to understand your approach too: I know all fishing situations are unique, but tipically how do you present a fly (lets say a nymph or pinkei) to trout in small streams? Do you fish a nymph downstream or upstream mostly? How far away from the fish do like to be so you don't spook them? I appreciate any advice! Thanks and Happy Holidays-lawncasterReplies
Thank you!Delete
This time of year I fish almost exclusively upstream, though a few months ago I would fish downstream and skate these flies to good effect.
As far as distances, I can sneak up to within five feet of a pool if there are rocks or other obstructions to hide behind. I generally get as close as possible without being able to clearly see the structure of the bottom of the pool. If you can, the fish are already gone. If you have room for a back cast you only need to be close enough to be in content contact with your fly. With dries this isn't an issue because you can see the strike. With nymphs and wets any debris your fly line or leader touches takes away a little more of your ability to feel the take.
I use a downstream dead-ish drift, usually high sticked (a relative term in this business. I mean keep the rod tip at least a few feet above the water). As the fly comes downstream raise the rod tip. Don't worry about a perfect drift as the fly comes towards you, a little speed and lift may trigger a strike. If you are too close the visibility of the rod moving may spook fish. If you have any other questions don't be afraid to request them in the comments on the "Tip of the Week Page" and I'll do a thorough write up there.

text: Freedom Fighters Documenting Detectives: Exonerees Fight To Free Others By Courtney Collins • Apr 15, 2013 David Alvarado / "Freedom Fighters" Filmmaker Jamie Meltzer thought he'd just go check out a Dallas meeting for prison exonerees last February. He'd heard a group of freed inmates had started a detective agency, which sounded like pretty good film fodder. Meltzer showed up, met the guys and started shooting that day. "I came down to evaluate the idea and I was just hooked from the get-go," says Meltzer, who now is about a year into filming "Freedom Fighters." Meltzer's team includes Michael May, who has a story on the detective agency on All Things Considered today.

I didn't think I would have time to do anything substantial outside work today. Let alone blog. I just finished putting together a long presentation on inheritance and succession. I worked late, slept thinking about it, woke up thinking about it…and finally, it's done. Whew!
A few months ago I had this mini-epiphany: Fear is easier than faith.
Scientists say that humans are born with a total of two fears. The fear of falling and fear of loud noises. When I read this i thought, the most fearless people in the world should be matatu conductors. Jumping off of moving vehicles with music so loud it could blind you.
We unfortunately manage to learn a million other fears as we grow older.
Fear is a go-to-emotion. Faith is more than an emotion. It is substance, evidence. Fear cripples you. Faith causes you to move past the paralysis and walk. It's easier to be crippled. Seemingly easier I should say. It's easier to resign yourself to circumstances than to believe in things unseen. It's easier to make excuses than muster the courage to step out, believe and do great things. It's easier to stick to a status quo you're uncomfortable with than be different or stand out.
When you go with fear, "behave yourself" and do what you think everyone expects of you get the everyone's nod but I can almost guarantee you, you will lose your soul.
When you take the road less traveled and go with faith, you gain your soul. It may take a while but if you truly believe in what you have, you gain other souls too!
Fear demands less of you than faith. And sadly, many people prefer to stay in their nice, warm comfort zone. I say do it afraid. For a long time I had serious stage fright. When I was younger, this did not exist. I was super confident and thrived among audiences. Somewhere along the way though, I lost it. I shook in my boots every time I had to address more than a few people.
I still get a bit nervous with crowds but I can proudly say that I am a lot better now. I take advantage and stand before people whenever I get the slightest opportunity. I have to unlearn the fear I picked up. I believe that I have important things to say-that are worth listening to!
I am really passionate about mentoring young girls (teenagers) and am currently working on a manual/curriculum for my mentorship program. Not because I was an excellent teenager. Haha… not close. Most of my teenage was shrouded by fear. I woke up afraid almost every single day of my high school life. I was afraid of the world, afraid to fail, afraid I was not beautiful enough… I had some serious identity issues and was depressed a lot! I hardly rebelled because I was lost somewhere inside my mind. My class performance was terrible. My parents were so concerned since I was a well above average student in primary school; topping the class in some subjects even. They took me to see a shrink who I doubt helped me much. (So yes, like Sheldon Cooper, my mother had me tested.)
Looking back, I can only attribute the re-birth of my confidence to my God. I sat at his feet often and begged him to let me see me as he does. And he did! By the time I went to campus to study Law (another miracle story for another day) my mojo was coming back. And it showed in my studies!
I challenge you today to turn your back on fear. Fear is a horrible master. No dues…ever. Do not allow yourself to continue being a slave. You are bigger. You are better. You can walk away.

"The Energy and Climate Change (ECC) select committee is to be officially abolished following the conference season, with the business, innovation and skills (BIS) department to take on the energy brief.
Following the closure of the Department of Energy and Climate Changeand the formation of the new Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS), official government documents have revealed that the scrutiny committees will be changed to reflect the new landscape.
According to the House of Commons Future Business papers for the week beginning 10 October, the standing order related to select committees will be amended to remove "Innovation and Skills" from the BIS select committee to be replaced by "Energy and Industrial Strategy".
This will take effect on 17 October, when the ECC committee will be dissolved. These changes will also reflect the removal of climate change from a named government department, with the new BEIS committee presumably taking over scrutiny of this area in addition to the named briefs."

At this time a year ago, the Miami RedHawks were winless five games through the season; the idea of a share of the Mid-American Conference East title or a bowl berth against an SEC opponent seemed like a pipe dream, yet that is exactly what happened to Chuck Martin and Co.
This time around, the 'Hawks head into week six with players such as Heath Harding, Gus Ragland, and Brad Koenig more experienced and confident with already one MAC win in the books.
"[We're] very confident," Redshirt junior quarterback Ragland said of his team's mindset heading into league play directly after last week's defeat at Notre Dame. "I think all the guys in there right now are already thinking about Bowling Green and the hell of a journey we have ahead of us."
The Bowling Green Falcons (0-5, 0-1 MAC) will come into Yager Stadium in a similar position the 'Hawks (2-3, 1-0 MAC) found themselves in a year ago. Though their winless record seems to reveal a team playing poorly, Miami head coach Chuck Martin believes the Falcons are better than their record shows.
"Bowling Green's actually better than they were a year ago," Martin said. "They're going through a little bit of what we went through. I think I can empathize with their staff — you can tell year two, they're starting to figure out their schemes and they're executing their schemes way better."
The strength of the Falcons is a defense with a knack for turning opposing offenses over, winning the turnover margin by three thus far in the 2017 campaign. Leading the defense is linebacker Brandon Harris; the junior out of Cleveland has collected 40 total tackles on the season along with a pair of fumble recoveries.
"Ball security's always a huge emphasis," senior receiver Sam Martin said about facing a Falcon squad that has caused twelve turnovers five games through. "Whenever you're facing a team that forces a lot of turnovers, it becomes an even bigger issue."
The RedHawk offense will look to build off of a Week 5 performance in which quarterback Gus Ragland was able to move the ball down the field, but failed to consistently convert drives into points against a staunch Notre Dame D.
Miami moved the ball for 377 yards on the Irish, but 90 yards off penalties and turnovers doomed the RedHawk offense. This week, the Red and White have an easier task ahead of them as Bowling Green has given up an average of 35.4 points per game on 511 yards of total average offense.
"We threw the ball, we ran the ball fairly effectively," Coach Martin said. "I thought we could move the ball all game — we probably had five or six opportunities to put points on the board."
The Falcon offense has also had trouble turning explosive drives into points on the year — Bowling Green averages 339.2 yards per game but only 16 points per contest. Their passing attack is led by a two-quarterback system with Redshirt sophomore James Morgan and freshman Jarret Doege averaging 238 passing yards per contest while senior running back Josh Cleveland has rushed for 289 yards in five games.
"They're a lot like us year two," Martin said of the Bowling Green offense. "They shoot themselves in the foot. They get it going, and then they stop themselves."
The RedHawk defense will look to take advantage of an offense that tends to self-destruct. The 'Hawks have forced turnovers in crucial junctions and will get back senior safety Tony Reid who was suspended for the first half of last week's game due to a targeting penalty.
Coach Martin is looking for his team to continue to focus on themselves and work out the small kinks that have prevented the team from truly breaking through so far in 2017.
"Biggest thing as a team is players keeping it simple," Martin said. "When we've gotten into trouble this year is when kids are trying too much. We talked about it yesterday, it's going to be a huge emphasis this week — keeping things simple and trusting your teammates."
The RedHawks will look to move to 2-0 in the MAC Saturday at 2:30 p.m. The game can be viewed on ESPN3 or heard on the Miami Sports Network.
