Insider-Outsider... Part Deux
I am not one of those people who could proudly say that there have never been any regrets in their lives. In fact, I had many. One of them was to do with not being able to apply to L'Oreal's graduate recruitment programme when I was fresh out of university.
I went to their recruitment fair with a couple of my college best friends, and we were all very impressed by their presentation and by the down-to-earth personalities of their senior managers. It really seemed like a fun and decent place to work.
For me especially, I was very heartened by one of the qualities that this French company looked for in their applicants: biculturalism. I was mentally jumping up and down with joy when I read that in their graduate recruitment brochure, thinking to myself, "How cool is a company that not only appreciates, but actively promotes, the value of its staff having multiple cultural backgrounds?"
My friends and I all vowed that we would apply to the company. But things turned out differently for all of us.
I ended up with a full scholarship to America, something that I only applied on a lark, but it turned out I hit the jackpot. My friend decided to pursue a Masters at a prestigious local school before hitting the job market, and the other friend decided to go travelling for a year before settling down into the world of work.
In short, none of us applied to L'Oreal in the end.
When I came back from the States, I just missed the milk round, so I applied to whatever openings there were and ended up working for a German company. We spent weeks training in this remote picturesque town in the middle of nowhere in Hessen (which was three long train-rides from the Frankfurt airport!), where one of the trainers was especially fond of telling off-colour, even border-line racist jokes about people with different cultural backgrounds.
Thankfully he was only a trainer, not my actual superiors. But the fact that a person with that kind of attitude could be put in charge of training thousands upon thousands of staff from all over the world, spoke volumes about the actual corporate values of the company.
It was since then that I occasionally couldn't help but wonder, what if I have given up my scholarship and have worked for L'Oreal instead? What would my life path - and with it, my perspective on life - have been like instead?
* * *
Before I went to the States, all my friends said I would have an absolute ball in New York, and a couple of them were planning for trips to come visit me, so envious were they of the opportunity I was going to have to experience the Big Apple. Needless to say, my own expectations were extremely high also.
I remember stepping into the streets of NYC for the first time. I was gobsmacked. So many Chinese people. So many skyscrapers. It was almost like I stepped into Hong Kong. During the first orientation session, I befriended an Australian woman and a Japanese girl, and I was already loving the experience of being an international student in a foreign land.
Over time, I made friends with people from all walks of life, with all sorts of cultural backgrounds. But I noticed certain things. I began to realise that there were two different types of young Chinese college students in New York: the first group consisted of those recently immigrated from Hong Kong, and they tended to socialise among themselves and seldom used conversational English in their day-to-day life; the other group were American-born Chinese, who jested with each other easily and naturally in English, it being their mother-tongue.
The curious thing for me was this - these two groups didn't really mix socially. I couldn't help but wonder why, but to this day, I still don't quite know the answer.
But I do remember feeling a bit cheated in life somehow, as I couldn't (still can't actually) believe that people could live in an English-speaking country but manage to survive (even thrive) without having to grasp the dominant language.
In fact, my long-held impression that Hong Kong people have a superior command of English vis-a-vis other East-Asians was shattered after my stay in New York. Based only on a convenient sample of my friends and acquaintances at that time, my impression was that Taiwanese, Koreans and Singaporeans have much better English than Hong Kongers.
I was feeling so envious, thinking to myself, Geez, if only my parents have decided to move to America instead of Ireland, then I wouldn't have to spend so much time - more accurately, blood sweat and tears - mastering the English language...
But of course, English became my new love, despite the fact that I still believe proper Chinese to be the most beautiful language in the world. And on reflection, I am grateful for my parents' decision to bring us here.
Before I moved to the States, I idealised the Big Apple and other big cities like it. But afterwards, I realised that, despite all its faults (and there are many), Ireland suited my temperament much better than any other country I have come to know.
* * *
When I came back to Ireland after my sojourn in New York, I was in for another shock: all of a sudden there were many Mainland Chinese people in the streets of Dublin.
The difference between before I left and after I came back was startling - suddenly cafe counters were manned by young Chinese students, the girl behind the coat-check in the night-club was Chinese, pint-glasses in pubs were cleared away by young Chinese fellows, and there was even a Chinese woman busker on Grafton Street!
I was shocked, and I have to admit, dismayed. Not so much because of the fact that there are now many Chinese people who make Ireland their home, but because they were mostly - and still are, to a large extent - represented in low-ranking, menial and casual jobs.
For instance, for the longest time, I was embarrassed to come upon the Chinese woman busker on Grafton Street at night, whose routine consisted of doing a Chinese dance wearing very flimsy clothes even when it was freezing cold at night (I mean, it wouldn't have been so bad if she busked in broad daylight like the majority of buskers, but her flimsy dress and the fact that she chose to perform only at night seemed to indicate that she was "selling" something else). It was demeaning to watch the drunks jeered at her admittedly dismal performance.
As a person who has for years been mentally carrying the responsibility of being a quasi-ambassador for Hong Kong, I feel both shame and anger at the Chinese woman for reducing our culture to a mere sideshow for drunks and selling it for a pittance. (Even though I know she couldn't help it as it was probably the only way she could scrape a living in rip-off Dublin).
Prior to the waves of immigration from Mainland China in recent years, the small Chinese community in Ireland for decades past was mostly originated from Hong Kong. They were mainly in the restaurant and takeaway business, but, unlike their counterparts in the UK, they did not choose to stick with each other and congregate together to form a Chinatown.
No, they scattered far and wide, opening a small family-run take-away or a restaurant here or there, in small towns and villages across the length and breadth of Ireland. Apparently this made good business sense, as it meant that they wouldn't have to compete with each other for customers.
But on a deeper level, there was also another logic at work here: that the Chinese families would by necessity be integrated into the local Irish community.
When I first came here, I was the only foreign student in the entire school. This had tremendous advantages -- my school friends got to know me, rather than knowing me as just "one of the overseas students"; my teachers saw me as their pet, and gave me special treatment out of indulgence, rather than because they were mandated to support a group of foreign-born students with special needs in an already crowded classroom.
In that environment, my younger brother and I were given room to explore and develop our personalities in tandem with our peers as we grew up. We weren't simply conceived as "one of the others", precisely because there weren't enough of "us" to be considered as "the others".
It was the same kind of environment that allowed John Rocha to be thought of as an "Irish" designer, even though he came originally from Hong Kong.
However, for better or for worse, that seems now to be a quaint, bygone age...
* * *
Perhaps I should round off my musings above with this passage from Peter Hoeg's "Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow":
On Disko Island in 1981, I helped test the corrosion effects of sea fog on the snaplinks used for safety lines on glacier crossings. We simply hung them up on a cord and came back three months later. They still looked reliable. A little tarnished, but reliable. The manufacturer claimed the breaking strength would be four thousand kilogrammes. It turned out that we could pull them apart with a fingernail. Exposed to a hostile environment, they had disintegrated.
It is through a similar process of deterioration that you lose your language.
When we moved from the village school to Qaanaaq, we had teachers who didn't know one word of Greenlandic, nor did they have any plans to learn it. They told us that, for those who excelled, there would be an admission ticket to Denmark and a degree and a way out of Arctic misery. This golden ascent would take place in Danish. This was when the foundation was being laid for the politics of the sixties. Which led to Greenland officially becoming "Denmark's northernmost county", and the Inuit were officially supposed to be called "Northern Danes" and "be educated to the same rights as all other Danes", as the prime minister put it.
That's how the foundations are laid. Then you arrive in Denmark and six months pass and it feels as if you will never forget your mother tongue. It's the language you think in, the way you remember your past. Then you meet a Greenlander on the street. You exchange a few words. And suddenly you have to search for a completely ordinary word. Another six months pass. A girlfriend takes you along to the Greenlanders' House on Lov Lane. That's where you discover that your own Greenlandic can be picked apart with a fingernail.

This post was inspired by a number of recent and not-so-recent posts/discussions on other blogs. In all cases, the bloggers concerned have been extremely kind to indulge me spouting nonsense or spilling my guts on their comment pages. I'm humbled by their politeness and tolerance, as I am not sure I would be similarly patient if I have been in their shoes. I shall learn not to do that again in future - in fact, I shall even put it as one of my new year's resolutions.

Being an INTJ and a Cancer
The Cancer introvert is a very private individual that enjoys time to themselves relaxing and introspecting. They have a very imaginative mind and enjoy taking time to explore their inner world. They tend to prefer to have a small knit group of friend and family that they support and cherish.
The Cancer intuitive is highly imaginative and is constantly found with their head in the clouds or thinking about the future. They tend to be big picture thinkers, and take into consideration ways to enhance and enrich the lives of those around them. They can have big goals and ambition and fight for ways to achieve them.
The Cancer thinker tends to be a bit less outwardly emotional than most Cancer types, but that does not mean they don't have strong feelings internally. They tend to have an intriguing balance of logic and emotions. The Cancer thinker is usually able to set this aside and direct focus to their work and are good at being frugal and managing finances. This type likes to make logical decisions, but they definitely can find themselves in a tug of war with their strong feelings.
The Cancer judger tends to be focused and organized. They understand that having their life in order is important not just for them, but also their family. They can be very tenacious about their course of action in life, and pursue it with conviction and purpose. Cancer's tend to prefer a relaxed lifestyle and this one may benefit from someone in their life that makes them feel a bit more at ease.

I have only seen WWF wrestling by flipping channels...and then I continue to flip. I guess I am not the target demographic. But given my thorough love of Japanese culture this seemed appropriate.

A listers battle it out!
Celebrities have always vied against each on who is the most beautiful, wealthiest, has the most attractive husband / boyfriend / girlfriend / wife and now Curvy Christiana Aguilera, Bootiful Beyonce and Racy Rihanna have just been battling it out on stage for the title of America's sexiest singer.
The Divas were out in force in their best bib and tucker – or lack of costume as the photos will show. Very raunchy, very minimal and very tight – what a combination. All three performed in a series of sexy outfits at the American Music Awards in Los Angeles.
Christiana arrived in a very demure stunning dress and soon changed to black clad vamp!
Christian vamped up in lace, lycra, zipped, fishnet tights and a hat undergarments!
She only had a baby 10 months ago and I can't say that I can see any sign of baby after bulge, can you ?
Arriving in demure white! and later…….
Rihanna put on sexy performances for the star-studded crowd at the American Music Awards last night
Whilst Beyonce Knowles put on an energetic performance of her latest release Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It). But what a face crikey, it looks like she may have either stepped in something or is sucking a lemon!!
Also going for the fishnets tights and hotpants look was Beyoncé, who showed off her cleavage in a revealing black and white puffball waistcoat. Together with two doppelganger dancers, Beyoncé performed a high energy routine to her latest track Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It). Ever the individual, Rihanna put her own sexy take on the biker look in a leather corset dripping with 'heavy metal' and skin-tight leather trousers and thigh-high boots. The raunchy outfits were a change of pace for the singers, who looked demure in couture on the red carpet prior to the ceremony.
More shots!
Thigh high boots !
Eye eye captain: Rihanna performed her song Rehab in a biker outfit and silver eye-patch
Rihanna, who won Favourite Soul/R&B Female Artist and Favourite Pop/Rock Album at the bash, wore an unusual ivory coloured strapless mini dress. It was a double celebration for Rihanna, whose singer boyfriend Chris Brown ended up the biggest winner of the night with three trophies. The three solo stars weren't the only sexy performances of the night, the Pussycat Dolls brought their raunchy stage show to the awards.
Pole-dancing: Nicole Scherzinger managed an energetic performance despite wearing a figure-hugging PVC outfit and I bet Lewis loved it.
Kisses for the crowd: Scherzinger (centre) joins her Pussycat Dolls bandmates (L-R) Melody Thornton, Jessica Sutta, Ashley Roberts and Kimberly Wyatt. Lewis Hamilton watched from the audience as his girlfriend, Pussycat Dolls frontwoman Nicole Scherzinger pole-danced with her bandmates.
Lewis Hamilton and Nicole Scherzinger So when do you think they will get wed? A perfect pair
Hangin' Touch again: Reformed New Kids On The Block (L-R) Danny Woody, Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg, Jordan and Jonathan Knight performed

|Now there's something right up Michael's alley (pun intended)
|Fine looking missionaries
|With the Bentley Family
This family takes such great care of the missionaries. Elder Alley adores them.
I'm so grateful for people like them!
|Elder Alley is a happy guy. He LOVES spaghetti.
|Good call to put the towel on. (We've seen how he eats spaghetti. lol)
|Lunch with some more of Elder Alley's favorite people :)
Dear Family,
First of all, I can't thank you guys enough for writing to me. I'm also truly grateful to you guys for putting our names in the temple's prayer roll. Please know that I find great comfort in knowing that my family and friends are rooting and praying for me from back home. Thank you everyone so much!
Well, as the title says, my first official transfer is coming up and the result is this: I'll be staying in Martin, Kentucky for another 6 weeks with a new companion. The Ashland Zone Leaders have told me that my new companion's name is Elder Barnie. I won't meet him until some time tomorrow, but I heard that he's a really nice guy.
Elder Buttars was a good companion who gave me some good advice and I thanked him for training me and putting up with me. To be honest, I have a lot of mixed feelings about this transfer. Part of me is looking forward to it, however, because I'm the one who is staying, that means I'm the senior companion ("senior" as in I know this area better than he does) and I'll be the one in charge. To be honest, I don't want to be in charge. I don't want to be a leader. I'm usually fine with just being on the sidelines. The best way that I can describe it is that I'd rather be the sidekick who wants to help, instead of the hero who gets most of the responsibility. Does that make sense? I'm not saying this to be negative. I'm just saying that I really don't like being in leadership positions. The fact that I survived being a Zone Leader at the M.T.C. was a miracle on its own. Oh well, it is what it is. Just please keep me in your prayers that I'll be able to make the most of this transfer. Please and thank you.
Speaking of "thank you". Could you thank Uncle Matt for me for his generous donation to our mission funds by buying the Play Station 3? I was not expecting him to give us that much. Thank you so much Uncle Matt!
To answer some of your questions: Yes, Grandpa's suit does still fit but I might send it home because I'm worried about it getting damaged out here. It is an old suit after all. I'll think about it after this transfer week settles down. As for what I was doing in that picture of me at the Christmas Conference: I was bearing my testimony of the true meaning of Christmas using Luke 2:8-20. Prior to this conference, me and a few other missionaries were asked to bear our testimonies about the true meaning of Christmas at the end of the conference. As I was bearing my testimony and reading them the story, I told them about the time when I asked mom, "Why did God send angels to shepherds?" I asked this question because during this time, it made more sense to me that God would send angels to His prophets and other chosen servants. Mom, I remember you telling me that (it may not be word for word) God loved the shepherds just as much as He loves us. Because the birth of His Only Begotten was such an important event, He wanted everyone to know about it, including the lower-class people like the shepherds. So important, that He sent angels to spread the Word about His Son. As I told this story, I testified that we, the missionaries, must be like the angels spreading the message of the Restored Gospel to everyone, including those who most people would over-look. It was a very special moment for me.
Before I end, I want to share with you one cool event that happened to me this week. I was on exchanges in Prestonsburg with Elder Wheeler and we came across this martial arts dojang after we had dinner. To make the long story short, Elder Wheeler saw my excitement when I saw the dojang and convinced me to go inside and talk to the teacher there. We did and the teacher and I had a great discussion about martial arts and its history. I wasn't able to get the gospel into the conversation, but the teacher said that we can stop by again and exercise with him if we want! I felt like I just opened up a new future for missionary work! It was awesome! I'm hoping that we can work something out where I can come back to help get the Prestonsburg Elders set up with the martial arts teacher. At the end of the day, Elder Wheeler told me that he loves watching missionaries "geek out" because that helps people to feel more comfortable around him and be more open to him. It was a great exchange.
Well, that's all for now. I love you all and miss you all. Take care everyone.
Elder Michael Alley

I think a 5 year old's response would more likely be like that Republican in Missouri that said, no fair! I don't like seeing Johnny buying steak! Boohoo!
I feel entitled? When I pay a great portion of my income in taxes to a government, then yes, I feel entitled to assistance when I need it.
The thing is that I went from lower class to upper class, through hard work and dedication. I know what it feels like to be in poverty, unlike a lot of people that I share a tax bracket with now. I now pay a much higher tax rate than I did when my oldest were babies. I pay in at the end of the year now instead of getting returns.
I do not use credit either. So I have no credit. We rented and saved until we had a few thousand for a fixer upper, and we fixed it up and then some. We have a nice home that we own, we have cars that we own (saved up and paid for with cash). They are not brand new but are newer and far from the clunkers that I drove in my early twenties. We use prepaid cell phones. We go on vacations, nothing luxurious, but we do get away with the kiddos and have a good time. We shop at the mall, but hit the sales and clearance racks. We buy what we need. We splurge when we can.
We do not live in a two story brick home, do not drive brand new cars, do not have iphones, do not wear the newest fashions, and do not have all the things that my kids' friends have. We live within our means. If something catastrophic happened and we had to drain our savings to live, we wouldn't lose our home or cars, but we may need assistance to feed our family. Would I feel entitled to help then? You bet your ass!

Well, if you consider a man making 6 figures working a technology job poor, then you are right on! Do you honestly believe that only poor people defaulted on their mortgages? Their was a little thing called a recession...you see...and a lot of companies folded, people lost their jobs, and couldn't afford their mortgages anymore.
It was definitely not just poor people that lost their homes. We have a Representative in our county that is going through foreclosure right now. Things happen.
You are obviously a troll and I am just wasting my typing on you. I just hope that you never find yourself in a situation where you need help.

We need to go back to Govt cheese.
If people want others to fund their dietary needs, then restrictions and such are very much within the boundaries.
EBT/SNAP needs to go to people getting a bag of rice, beans, cheese, milk and some beef and chicken.
It is moronic that people can walk into a 7/11 and use tax payer funds to purchase convenient store pizzas and soda.

In British Columbia they looked at the 180,000 people on income assistance in total to see how fraud was occurring. Of the 180,000, 7% were considered suspicious (12,600 people) and of that 7 percent only 1% were found to actual be legitimate defrauders (378 people).
I trust those studies more than I would an overworked, underpaid retail cashier.

On Tuesdays, we look after Caelyn's children while she goes to college. Teresa had been cranky for a couple of days and her mum was keeping an eye on her health. After Caelyn left for college, Michelle went to lock the front door with Teresa, Benny and Marley hot on her heels. Somehow in the rush, Teresa fell against the book case by the door and has a cut next to her eye. She is going to have a shiner there! Caelyn came back to comfort her and went back to college when the child settled.
But today Caelyn tells me that she took her to the Dr who has diagnosed a chest infection and put her on antibiotics, so the poor little lass has been in the wars. Get well soon, Teresa Jayne.

"Just one more minute"
I hear this one a lot.
"Time to get in the car and get to school"
"Just one more minute"
"We need to get shoes on now, or we will be late!"
"One more minute, please!"
"Your dad will be home in a few minutes, so maybe you should get your room cleaned."
"Just a minute!"
And so on and so on. My question is this…how many minutes to kids think they have? There are only so many of them in a day, and they can't reserve some for when they want more time. I do give warnings before the deadlines, so it's not like they don't know change is coming.
Should we do things when the time comes, or beg for one more minute? That is my question to you. The floor is now open for debate.

Which offers more, a good movie or a good novel? Many would answer that a good movie offers more – pictures in motion, sounds, dialogue, close-up facial expressions, special effects, and mood-setting music.
But the viewpoint of a movie remains external, and with few exceptions the thoughts of the actors must be evoked through audible speech and visible expression or action. By reading a good novel, a person can enter the minds of multiple characters interacting with each other.
Virtual reality movies like The Matrix and Avatar bring the audience into the thoughts of characters in a science fiction landscape, but they do so by transferring the action entirely into thought-scenes, and then switching back and forth between thought-scenes and the physical world.
Our actual experience of life is an experience of (1) thoughts from within and (2) images, sounds, smells, and other sensations from without, all occurring simultaneously and without a hint of strangeness. No movie reproduces this actual experience. Words on a page can represent both inner thoughts and outer pictures, sounds, and sensations. The reader transfers into the fictional world and through the medium of words sees what the character sees, hears what she hears, feels as she feels, and discovers what she thinks at each critical moment. So a good novel can deliver reality in a way that no movie can.
In a great novel the characters make choices entirely as if multiple wills express themselves and respond to the course of events. Sometimes an author gives witness to the sentiment that the wills of the characters, not the will of the author, guided the hand that penned the book.
In life and in novels that reflect life, a new kind of will might emerge, a mutual will that is more than a negotiation between two or more individual wills. A previous blog described briefly a philosophic position called ontologic individualism, which denies the possibility of such a will expressed in groups. According to ontologic individualism, mutual decisions, whether arising from two people or from millions, always amount to negotiation, intimidation, manipulation, or some other kind of social mechanism, but they never have the primal authority of individual choice.
I see no reason to regard the individual, myself or any other, as a special ontologic category. Pragmatic thinking has little regard for ontology – the understanding of being or essence – in any case. Pragmatism opens up the possibility that will can be expressed in groups.
In War and Peace, Tolstoy did not state explicitly that free will can arise in a nation or in an army, but he did imply it. He insisted forcefully and repeatedly that the decision to invade Russia in 1812 was not made by Napoleon the individual. He cast it in terms of historical necessity, as in these words:
Millions of men, renouncing their human feelings and common sense, had to march from west to east to slay their fellows, just as some centuries previously hordes of men had moved from east to west, slaying their fellows.[1]
Compared to action scenes in movies commonly watched today, one might expect Tolstoy's description of war to seem sketchy at best. However, the thoughts and emotions of participants combine with description of movements, sounds, and chaos to make reading Tolstoy's words in many ways more real than plain audiovisual display can deliver.
In the novel Tolstoy describes battle through the sensations and thoughts of familiar characters such as Prince Andrei and Nikolai Rostov. One remarkable passage begins with a blow to Prince Andrei's head from a bullet or shrapnel, then this:
'What's this? Am I falling? My legs are giving way,' he thought, and fell on his back. He opened his eyes, hoping to see how the struggle between the Frenchmen and the gunners ended…whether the cannon had been captured or saved. But he saw nothing. Above him there was now only the sky – the lofty sky, not clear yet still immeasurably lofty, the grey clouds creeping softly across it. 'How quiet, peaceful and solemn! Quite different from when I was running,' thought Prince Andrei. 'Quite different from us running and shouting and fighting…. How differently do these clouds float across that lofty, limitless sky! How was it I did not see that sky before! And how happy I am to have found it at last! Yes, all is vanity, all is delusion except these infinite heavens. There is nothing, nothing but that. But even it does not exist, there is nothing but peace and stillness. Thanks be to God!'[2]
The climactic battle of Borodino marks a turning point in Tolstoy's War and Peace, and in history the first major failure for the Napoleonic Empire. Borodino eclipsed every other battle in Napoleon's campaigns for total casualties, over 60,000 dead and wounded counting both armies. On the following day the Russian army under General Mikhail Kutuzov abandoned the field, and Napoleon subsequently marched forward to occupy the city of Moscow. However, Kutuzov's Russian force remained intact, and Napoleon's Grande Armée was weakened too severely to compel surrender from the Tsar in Petersburg. Due to French supply lines stretched too far and a scorched earth strategy from the Russians, the fortunes of war turned quickly. Less than 2 months after Borodino, Napoleon left Moscow to retreat westward through the early Russian winter. As he left Russia, 80% of his huge army remained behind, either dead or captured.
Tolstoy introduces us to Kutuzov, the 67-year-old general who led the Russian army. He argues that the people of Russia, not the Tsar, chose Kutuzov as their commander-in-chief:
For Russian historians…Kutuzov appears…as some colorless, pitiable being, and whenever they speak of him in connection with the year 1812 they always seem a little ashamed of the whole episode.
The procrastinator Kutuzov, whose motto was always "Patience and Time", the sworn opponent of precipitate action, gives battle at Borodino, investing the preparations for it with unparalleled solemnity. This Kutuzov who at Austerlitz, before the battle began, declares that it will be lost, at Borodino, in the face of the conviction of the generals that the battle ended in defeat and the unprecedented instance of an army having to retire after winning a victory – he alone, in opposition to everyone else, persists to his dying day that Borodino was a victory. He was alone during the whole of the retreat [the subsequent French retreat from Russia] in insisting that battles which now had no point should not be fought, that a new war should not be begun nor the frontiers of Russia crossed.
– – –
How came that old man, alone, in opposition to universal opinion, so accurately to appreciate the import of events for the nation that never once throughout his career was he untrue to it?
This extraordinary power of insight into the significance of contemporary events sprang from the purity and fervor of his identification with the people.
It was their recognition of this feeling of his of oneness with them that led the people by such strange paths to choose him, an old man out of favor, to be their representative in the national war, against the wish of the Tsar. And it was this feeling alone which lifted him to the lofty pinnacle from which he, the commander-in-chief, exerted all his efforts, not to maim and exterminate men but to spare and have pity on them.[3]
The decision to select Kutuzov as commander-in-chief, early in the war after several Russian defeats, was made, per the historians, by less than 10 grand councilors, generals, and princes, against the initial preference of Tsar Alexander I. According to Tolstoy, however, a whole series of small colluding events made their deliberations inevitable. As noted in the passage above, Tolstoy's opinion was that Kutuzov was chosen by the people of Russia, not by a small governing group. The Battle of Borodino, which Kutuzov considered a victory, came to be recognized as a pivotal reversal for the short-lived Napoleonic Empire.
In the passage quoted above, the words that the narrator most emphatically wants us to remember are "his identification with the people" and "their recognition of this feeling of his of oneness with them." These are the bonds that allow a person to speak of our desire, our passion, our country. The truest leader is one who does not set himself or herself apart.
Every individual person might like more power, respect, and security, attributes that commonly belong to the elite of a region or a nation. But these attributes often conflict with the desire to connect and to belong to the general community rather than to the elite. A new word from the early 20th century – solidarity – has emerged to echo the relation of oneness with other people identified by Tolstoy and others. Every person has to decide when the call to distinguish yourself, urged by every human parent, runs counter to the goal of solidarity and then make a choice. The victory of Borodino, Tolstoy tells us, was a victory of the will exerted by millions of Russians acting in solidarity.

What do you do after a particularly insane conversation about dogs , drunkards and humongous lassos? But since this post has nothing to do with dogs, drunkards and lassos, humongous or otherwise you can conveniently forget about them. We'll talk about a pint sized genius, a sardonic lovable tiger, a transmongrifier, a flying time machine and the ten years of Calvin and Hobbes cartoon strip created by Bill Watterson.
I don't know about you but as a kid I positively adored the newspaper. Amidst the gore, the scoreboards, crosswords and the stock market values was a page dappled with colour which the grown ups would hand down to me. Mickey grinned back from one corner while Dennis wisecracked from another. From the Garfield and Odie days I stepped up to Snoopy, Modesty Blaise and later the rather politicized Doonesbury. But if I had to chose from this morass of puns and punchlines and bell the most endearing cat in the block, it would have to be Calvin and Hobbes.
The strip ran from 1985 to 1995 and I sorely wish Watterson could come right back and sketch some more. Appearing in 24,000 newspapers worldwide and boasting of more than 30 million sold copies of the Calvin and Hobbes books, the strip almost instantly attracted popular imagination.
This one is the first strip featuring the rambunctious kid in striped red shirt. The namesake of the sixteenth century theologist John Calvin, this six year old is ingenious, curious, pixilated and outlandishly creative. Hobbes[ nomenclature from the 17th century philosopher Thomas Hobbes] is for sidekicks, an accomplice in Calvin's imaginative escapades who swings between the extremes of being a stuffed tiger and a full grown arthropomorphic feline friend. If this schism bothers you, I suggest you read what the creator has to say about his work-
"When Hobbes is a stuffed toy in one panel and alive in the next, I'm juxtaposing the 'grown-up' version of reality with Calvin's version, and inviting the reader to decide which is truer...".
This is a medley of few of my personal favorites that I could ferret out through a google search.
This one killed me[I could not find the other Einstein strip where the kiddo says- "You know how Einstein got bad grades as a kid? Well, mine are even worse!"] What's rib tickling is the adorable way he goes around challenging established ideas, not genuflecting to theories and not letting textbooks think for him.
didn't think I would get lucky with this strip. I actually read it years back on some jhalmuri packet[btw, what do you call a thonga in English?] and was glad to rediscover it. See that grown-ups-can-be-so-stupid look on Calvin's face?
I could morph Calvin's face with mine. No further comments.
Will the victims of parental shrewdness please stand up? Whatever made you think those benign looking mortals are putty in your hands?
I wish I remembered more about Tracer Bullet, Stupendous Man and Spiff. But it's a babel up here and beyond vague impressions of amusement at various strips, I don't recall any individual piece that left me in splits. But there two jaunty, natty strips that I have to upload..
These are stuffs that drollery is made of-
By the way, did you know there was actually a strip which didn't feature Calvin, Hobbes, his dad, mom, Susie...anyone. I am trying to get this collector's piece and when i do I'll upload it. I'll leave you now with my favorite strip...
This is the last printed strip-
Ok, for those of you who didn't read it as folks who know poetry when they see one, are most welcome to post in your own favorite strips. Better still take this test, if you have time to kill-

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (KDKA) – An Ohio police officer was laid to rest Sunday on the campus of Youngstown State University.
Because of the anticipated large turnout of mourners, the funeral for a fallen Ohio Police Officer was held Sunday on the campus of Youngstown State University.
To the mournful strains of bagpipes, the flag draped coffin carrying the body of 31-year old Girard Officer Justin Leo was brought into the Beeghley Center; immediately following the casket were Leo's parents, David and Patty, and several other relatives.
Among those paying their final respects to Officer Leo, were a group of officers from Pittsburgh. "It's an honor for us to be here to represent the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police, and honor a brother law enforcement officer who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect his community," Pittsburgh Police Sgt. Lance Hoyson said.
"Justin shared a quote with me that describes the way he lived his life, 'a good life is when you ask for nothing. Do more, need less, smile often,' and Justin did just those things," Jenna Burris, Leo's cousin, said.
Leo was a Girard, Ohio police officer for 5 years; he was shot and killed answering a domestic disturbance call last weekend.
"It's at time like these that makes us wonder why we do this," Girard Police Chief John Norman said. "This is the reason is police officers, firemen, EMTs want to make a difference in their most desperate times, people want us to be there and we want to be there."

Sometimes I just feel like eating a simple pie- in fact most of the time I'd rather it without loads of Herbs, Spices & Wine.. I want a pie like they sell in the supermarket! So I make this..
Normally I use Frozen Short Crust Pastry for the base & Frozen Puff Pastry for the lid but as I had a bit of time on my hands I decided to try out Delia Smith's 'Quick & Easy Flaky Pastry' which I mentioned before in my Pie, Mash & Liquor post. It really is a good recipe & very simple- I will use it again. And I made a simple Suet Pastry for the base.. I love Suet Pastry as I love Dumplings!
For the Flaky Pastry
For the Suet Pastry (Pie Bottom)
- 350g Self Raising Flour
- 190g Shredded Suet (Atora is the brand available here in Tempo! Beef or Vegetable)
- Cold Water (use your judgement!)
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- Sift the Self Raising Flour & Salt into a large mixing bowl
- Mix in the Suet
- Add a few drops of cold Water mixing with a knife
- Keep adding water until you have a sticky dough
- Now use your hands to finish the dough- it should be smooth, neither sticky nor dry & leave the bowl clean (add a drop more water or a sprinkle of flour to correct if necessary)
- Allow the pastry to rest, covered in the fridge for 30 mins
For the Pie Filling
- 300g Chicken, Skinless Boneless Thighs (I only had Breast & it tends to dry out)- cubed
- 1/4 White Onion, Chopped finely
- 4 Standard White Mushrooms, Chopped
- 25g Butter
- 25g Corn Flour
- 1.5 Cups Milk
- 1 Tbs Heavy Cream
- 1 Tsp Yeast Extract (Marmite)
- 1 Tsp Onion Powder
- 1 Tsp Chicken Bouillon Powder
- 1/2 Tsp Glucose Syrup
- Salt & White Pepper to taste
- Heat Butter, Fry Chicken until it loses most of its pink colour
- Add Onions & Mushrooms, Fry for a few minutes until softening but do not allow to colour
- Sprinkle over Corn Flour, mix well
- Add Chicken Bouillon & Onion Powder, mix well
- Add Milk, bring to the boil till sauce thickens, reduce heat to low
- Add Cream
- Add Yeast Extract & Glucose Syrup, mix well
- Season to taste
- Leave to cool slightly before filling Pie
Assemble Pie
- Pre heat oven to 200 oc/ Gas Mark 6
- Grease Pie Dish with Butter- I used 2 Terracotta Dishes which each hold a Man Sized Portion of pie!
- Roll out Suet Pastry & Line Pie Dish- Making sure the dough hangs over the lip, trim off excess
- Spoon in pie filling, don't fill right to the top!
- Roll out Flaky Pastry, cut out a circle (or square!) a bit bigger than your pie dish
- Wet the Suet Pastry covering the lip of the pie dish with some Cold Water
- Cover with Flaky Pastry lid, seal well around the edges & prick a few holes with a sharp knife
- Brush with Milk or Egg
- Cook in Oven for 30- 40 mins, until brown & piping hot
- Either lever whole pie out of dish to serve on a plate/spoon some pie out onto a plate or eat directly out of individual dish
Leek instead of Onion is a nice alternative

In this promotional film for Miu Miu, the female pop trio Au Revoir Simone play witches who transform Italian actress Maya Sansa into the object of her desire, a fantastic red dress. While becoming your own object of desire is perhaps the ultimate capitalistic fantasy, it's the impossibility of this transformation that aids the life cycle of consumer goods.
"The Woman Dress" is an example of how advertising promises exactly what the product can never deliver, it is the fantastic supplement to the consumer economy. In real life, you buy a dress you love, your desire is temporarily fulfilled, but then you desire something else, another new dress, and so on. If only you could, by way of a magical process, become what you want. "The Woman Dress" stages then a kind of supernatural end to the fashion industry.

Lord Norton of Louth [Philip Norton] was appointed Professor of Government in 1986 making him at the time the youngest professor of politics in the UK. In 1992 he also became Director of the Centre for Legislative Studies. In 1998 he was elevated to the peerage, as Lord Norton of Louth. From 2001 to 2004 he was Chairman of the House of Lords Select Committee on the Constitution. He has been described in The House Magazine – the journal of both Houses of Parliament – as 'our greatest living expert on Parliament'. He is the author or editor of 32 books, including The British Polity, now in its fifth edition and Politics UK, with Bill Jones, now in its eighth edition. He was elevated to the peerage in 1998.
Professor Philip Norton addresses the importance of place in terms of affecting the relationship between organs of the state, in this case principally legislatures and the courts. The importance of place here refers not to the place of the institution in constitutional terms, but to physical location. He argues that institutions of the state are studied primarily in terms of behaviour, powers and outputs and that little attention has been paid to their location and how this affects relationships between them. This article examines the effects of location through a study of the highest domestic court in the United Kingdom moving from the Palace of Westminster to a separate building across the road from the Parliament. It examines the perceived benefits of the court and Parliament sharing the same space and the consequences of separation. The move from within the Palace of Westminster has effected a shift in judicial-legislative relations from one of respective autonomy to one of democratic dialogue.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Musician Classifieds' started by WaterWorkzz, Jan 27, 2011.
Anybody want to start an internet green day cover band? I know drums to almost all of the songs.
I could do bass or guitar. Preferably bass, as they have some cool bass lines. And I have a new bass coming I'm stoked about. I think it would be fun.
I could probably do some guitars for ya
Great, do you guys have any way of recording yourselves?
Yes indeed
So now, all we need is a vocalist, and another guitarist nobody will know about until after the project's gone on for 10+ years.
Lol exactly
I could do the vocals for you.
Okay, what song to cover first?
Brain stew/jaded?
I dont know about jaded, i cant even play it on GDRB but brain stew is fine.
Brainstew Sucks. It's overly simple and bores the crap out of me. We should do When I come Around.
Edit: Or Longview
I think they are all overly simple (which in some ways is half the fun) but im down for whatever
so have we come up with a song yet?
Edit: how is everyone planning on sharing files?
I think indaba.com may work, if you don't know what it is, it's a free site that lets you collab with other users, you basically setup a session add users to it and then you can upload your parts its pretty sweet and you can setup private sessions so only we would be included if everyone wants to use that i'm already on there as trillium.
Honestly, I'm down for ANYTHING BUT BRAIN STEW, lol.
That sounds awesome.
lol ok well i'll setup a greenday session if everyone wants to join that site then we can get started
I'm signing up for it now. Just so you other guys know, it's Find People. Make Music. Online. - Indaba Music
ok you can search me as Dante gates / Trillium

Then it sounds to me that perhaps you can only understand the theist's definition from your own subjective interpretation of it?
If your interpretation of his words was on his terms, you'd be able to reflect the understanding back at him such that he'd agree it was a true reflection of his position.
I'll demonstrate how that works if you like, would you like me to reflect your position back at you, to ensure that I understand you on your own terms?
It's crucial that I do understand you on your own terms. If I don't, then by debating with you I'm debating with my erroneous pre-conceptions of you which actually means I am debating against myself.

Yes! You missed a whole layer of indirection :-)
Let me state more accurately where we presently are:
"matter of belief" can be defined as ... "descriptive of, or constituted of" that which is "relative to what an atheist means when he asserts that he lacks "belief" in god.", which in turn is relative to what a theist means when he asserts he "does believe in god."
I actually think the full "Chinese whispers" chain of meaning-making is relevant. It's not reasonable to remove a link of the chain (e.g. for me to discount the effect of atheists own interpretations and define god in this present discussion purely in terms of the theists own definition)
RE: The hypocracy of atheism
Quote:'phil.a' I personally have no fixed definition of "god", but that's fine because I'm not creating an identity for myself relative to that concept, I choose not to label myself.
Thats just a cop out Phil.a by not defining the concept of God and leaving is fuzzy so you basically dodge any definitions or critique - saying "well, thats not quite what I mean by God"
As for 'explicit' atheists definitions of God and self identity:
There are many versions of God(s) theists provide and I will make a distinction between:
1. Strongly denying & knowing the non existence of some gods (at least to a high probability if one cannot get absolute certainty for somethings non existence) This version is usually due to contradictions in the God concept.
2. Suspending belief about other versions of God - usually due to lack of evidence.
3. Not being able to know about other versions of God - an agnosticism.
In this sense I would not be some 'dogmatic' atheist but a mixture of strong atheism to agnosticism depending on the God concept precisely because their are different God concepts.
Eg I would be a strong explicit atheist [using your terminology] for God concepts like Jesus, Zeus and Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli.
(I'm sure you never prayed to Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli let alone say His glorious name - if you pronounce it correctly the first time there must be a God !!! Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli lives ! )
However for some of the Neo-Platonistic apophatic theological versions of God may leave me as an agnostic in the strong sense.
(by strong agnosticism meaning it is not possible to know whether an apophatic 'negative theology' type of God exists in which is God defined by 'what it is not' - found in some of the neo-platonistic & kabbalistic versions defining God.)
Now I am not going to go around and start breaking down all these classifications if someone asked me if I believe in God. I'm not going to spend 2 hours explaining why I am agnostic to the apophatic God of the neo-platonists and atheist to Jesus - the simple summary is I don't believe in God = atheist.
Hope this gives some insight into why definitions are important and that atheists are not defined by some single God(s) concept.

There is no confusion in what I mean by my lack of belief in God/gods.
I do not believe any of the claims of existence for gods I have ever read or heard.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

No we do not. The fact you cannot handle reality is not our baggage, anymore than throwing a fit over Santa being fiction is the fault of adults who accept reality.
You accept that Thor does not make lightening. You accept that Poseidon does not cause hurricanes. You also reject the gods and religions of others rightfully so. The only difference between you and me is that I simply reject one more god claim than you do.
You "The Yankees won the Superbowl"
Atheist, "No, the Yankees play baseball, the Superbowl is football"
You, "YOU HATE ME!"
That is how fucking childish you sound to us. Same ignorant reaction the church had with Galileo when he told them the sun does not rotate around the earth.
It was understandable when humans didn't know better to hold such beliefs, but insisting on ancient books of myth and invisible friends now in an age of scientific knowledge makes YOU, not us, look stupid. Do not blame us for the claims of the past we had no hand in writing. Otherwise you might as well believe the computer you used to type this on is made of cotton candy and runs on pixy dust.
Now grow up for a second and see if the following examples would make sense to you.
"Allah exists because the Koran says so"
"Yahweh exists because the OT says so"
"Vishnu exists because Hindus say so"
"I am a billionaire because I say so".
Now are you willing to blindly accept those examples without evidence? No? Good, now you know why we reject your claim as well.

Chas made a good point which I missed out.
I would also add disbelief in Gods I have never heard of - another form of atheism.
This might fall under agnosticism because I have no idea what I have not heard of, however the fact I dont believe would make me atheist. (I'm not going to quibble about definitions for Gods I have not heard of)
I just found out about:
Centzonhuitznahua & Chalchiuhtlicue. I'll now add them to my atheist list.
Chas: What do you make of Centzonhuitznahua & Chalchiuhtlicue - are they on your list ??? Maybe they existed and today you now have an opportunity to find out about their manifestations, miracles and worship rights. Careful with your kids ! I hear they like children.

House Update
Quick update folks-- we are closing on the house tomorrow morning. I know for some people this is no big deal at all. For me, this is huge. I feel the need to celebrate and freak out all at the same time. We don't plan to move in for a while because we want to do some renovating to the inside and we are blessed to be able to stay in our current location until that work is done. I know the next few months is going to be filled with decision-making, first experiences, and eventually moving which may all be stressful but it will be worth it to enjoy our first home together. We are truly blessed. Hopefully as the summer moves on we will be able to post updates on our progress. Keep us in your prayers!

{This is from House #2}
This is the wonderful huge orange blob that was in my living room. It was my plan from the beginning to paint it. Although, it took me a good 6 months of living with it before I couldn't stand it anymore. I had seen so many painted fireplaces roaming around the internet and I knew that would be my solution. If you have an orange blob in your home, this may be the answer you've been looking for.
Here she is. I tried so hard to decorate her but my decorations paled in comparison to her overwhelming... well she's just overwhelming. (I was also in the middle of painting that cute little seat in front).
This project was more time consuming than anything else. But I was so excited for this transformation that I got it done in one day.
First up was cleaning this beast. I just took a damp cloth and went all over it to get any soot or cobwebs off. Then it was time to prime. I got Lowe's brand regular primer, nothing fancy. I did 2 coats of primer because I did not want any brick to show through. I used a brush for the whole process. The bricks are very porous and not flat so I wasn't sure how a roller would do.
Next I got out the white paint and also did 2 coats. Lowe's brand right off the shelf in satin. I wanted a little bit of shine but this area gets a ton of light so I didn't want to be blinded throughout the day. What a difference white paint makes!
Last up I painted the "mantle." Which is really just a heavy piece of wood so I'm not exactly sure how it can be called a mantle. I used French Linen Chalk Paint by Annie Sloan then waxed it up with some clear wax. Don't forget to buff your wax so it's smooth like a baby's bottom.
We decided to put the TV up on the "mantle" to clear up some floor space. I had been dreaming up that idea for a while but had to wait to get my husband on board. I had been wanting to spray paint the brassy surround but never got around to it before we moved.
One tip: if you decided to paint the surround, be sure to use High Heat Spray Paint. They only make a few colors - black, white, and I believe silver.
Now I can have fun decorating this space and not be taunted by the orange brick. It is definitely a focal point of this room and I'm very happy it's not an eye sore now.
Look for a new post on Friday!!

I started out my day with a shake...sounds awesome right??? WELL IT WAS! And I will tell you why! I took a little trip to Cash and Carry on Wednesday and purchased 5 bottles of Sugar Free flavoring syrups! One in particular helped make my breakfast shake amazing...Pumpkin Pie! So I blended up my shake, added 1 TBL of the syrup and then tossed in some pumpkin pie spice blend from my spice cupboard, added some ice and cha ching...one of the tastiest shakes I have ever had! This recipe could work with any vanilla based protein shake you choose!
Then for dinner, I tried a new recipe, Zucchini Fritters. I was nervous because I had no idea what to expect but they were so yummy!
1 cup grated zucchini
2 whole eggs
4 egg whites
1 tbl onion finely chopped
onion powder to taste
garlic powder to taste
black pepper to taste
fry these up in a frying pan 1/4 cup at a time. They have a runny consistency so keep an eye on them. These turned out more like a pancake so I put them on a cookie sheet and put them in the oven for a few minutes to crisp them up. This recipe made 7 fritters and I ate 3 dipped in a tiny bit of low calorie sun dried tomato dressing and served them along side the leftover pork chop I had in the fridge! They were delish, and I could totally see eating them for breakfast with cinnamon and nutmeg in them instead of onion and garlic!

Legally, don't "provisional ballots" have to be counted if found to be valid? How can there be a legal exception? Isn't any election result subject to challenge if those ballots exceed the difference in votes between the leading candidates? What court could justify refusing such a legally valid challenge? The Dumbocrats certainly have enough lawyers and funds to take every such voter-suppression case to court.

A new national Jewish newspaper will begin publication next Friday, its publisher announced yesterday. The New York-based weekly, The Forward, will be published in English but is an outgrowth of the 94-year-old Yiddish-language newspaper Forverts. The new paper, published by the Forward Publishing Company, is partly owned by the publisher of Forverts, the Forward Association.
''The Forward will be different from the 100 or so other Jewish newspapers in America in that it will be written for a national audience,'' said Seth Lipsky, the newspaper's editor and president of Forward Publishing. Many existing Jewish newspapers are published by local Jewish federations, but The Forward, he said, will be ''independent in outlook, a little crusty at times, and have stories that people can't find in their local papers.''
The Forward developed out of an English-language supplement to Forverts that began in 1983, but it will have different editorial and advertising content, said Howard Ostroff, the general manager of the Forward Association and a co-chairman with Samuel Pisar of the new publishing company.
The paper will be a six-column broadsheet; its 12 pages will be divided among ''40 percent news and news analysis, 40 percent arts coverage and fiction, and 20 percent for editorial and op-ed pages,'' Mr. Lipsky said. Its 16-member staff will include correspondents in New York, Washington, Moscow, Paris and Israel, and it will use freelance writers and the Reuters news service.
The Forward will be available only in New York until Sept. 14, when it will begin distribution in 13 other urban areas, Mr. Lipsky said. Its initial circulation will be about 30,000, although he hoped it would be ''above 50,000'' within a year. The paper, which will be published on Fridays, will sell for 75 cents. A year's subscription will be $27. It will have four-color printing capability for advertisers, and the basic black-and-white rate will be $30 a column inch.
During its heyday in the early 20th century, Forverts, popularly known as The Forward, was published daily and its circulation reached 250,000, mainly among Jewish immigrants. Today, its circulation is 12,000. Mr. Ostroff said, ''We needed a new way of reaching the grandchildren of Jewish immigrants who probably don't speak Yiddish but are no less concerned with their heritage.''
Tuesday, Late Edition - Final
An article on the Media Business page on Friday about the debut of The Forward, a new national Jewish newspaper, misidentified the general manager of the Forward Association, who is also a co-chairman of the Forward Publishing Company. He is Harold Ostroff.

review: broken beats
Colonel Red, Omar & Spoonface - Move Up, Young Style, She Don't Know My Name - Faada
follow up of the "BruQ Steppin" series on faada records. and this one is rightfully called as a double A-side 12". Colonel Red, one of the most featured singers at the moment in the broken soul-scene (you can await his album "blue eyed black" this summer on people records!!) again delivers soulful vocals on headshakin' broken bumping-beats in a dancehall style.
using the same beat, faada head and yin-yang-singer spoonface creates a new version of seijis "yin yang" (honest jon's) which was played up and down on gilles petersons worldwide show or benji b's deviation. but the biggest thing in my opinion is "she don't know my name" on - as you know - the second a side. soul ace "omar" (big release from himself at the moment on a whitelabel - i have wounded my fingers in diggin for it in vain) breaks it down with a track which makes you catch your girl (or boy) and dance in an offlight club (why not trying @ bogaloo...?). omar is in business for over a decade and some people say he was influenced by maxwell, jill scott, erykah badu or stevie wonder. "if it's broken, don't fix it..." @ faada

The Second International Congress on Neurorehabilitation "NEUROREHABANA 2010" started this Wednesday in Havana, with the attendance of renowned scientists from Cuba, Spain, the United States, Great Britain and Panama.
Issues as neuro-interventionism, psychosocial aspects to brain damage, and the presentation of the Cuban program on human brain mapping, are part of the first session of the event, taking place at the Havana's Conference Center.
Of particular interest is the Second International Workshop on Equestrian Rehabilitation, at "La Pradera" International Rehabilitation Center, where Cuba will present success of this kind of therapy, as well as the project to rehabilitate children with brain disability, deaf-blindness, autism, and other mental and physical disability.
Parallel to the congress is a display, where the country will present programs, systems, equipment, accessories and other material goods from the Physical Medicine in the Medical Rehabilitation process, as electrotherapy, hydrotherapy, mecanotherapy, among others.
Software and information technologies associated to bioengineering, biofeedback, virtual reality, and the reality increased in the psycho-neuro-physiological re-education of the position, equilibrium, coordination, and cognitive re-education will be also available during the forum.
NEUROREHABANA will close curtains on March 12.

Here is is, mid-April, and I haven't blogged at all this month.
Quick update . . .
The last couple weeks have gone by quickly. The boys are 10 months old!!! Ethan and Emily are doing great. Ethan will be 8 in a couple weeks. Wow . . . where has the time gone???
The house is about 3 weeks from completion. You can't imagine how great it will be to finally move in. The kids are all excited about having all their stuff back in their own rooms!!!
The boys are teething like mad-men!!! I can't wait for those little teeth to come popping through. They have also decided that staying up with mommy is more fun than sleeping. I finally got them to sleep around 10pm tonight. What stinks is that after everyone is in bed is MY time. I get to watch my DVR'd programs, get on the computer, read a book . . . whatever. I guess the boys are wanting to join me . . . :) Only a few weeks, and they will be introduced to their cribs (at almost a year old!!)!!!! They are still in the original boxes . . . never unpacked . . . that should be fun!!!
Oh, and we had pics taken yesterday. Kevin and I didn't find anything to wear. So we decided to do just kids this time. We have another 1 hour session with this lady some time later. :) Hopefully we'll get some shots of all of us then . . .
Here's one of my favorites!!!
Kevin's dad is having some medical issues. So he really needs extra prayers.

City leaders back arts centre
TOOWOOMBA'S business leaders have extended their support to the Empire Theatre's plan to develop the $4.5 million Toowoomba Regional Arts and Community Centre.
If approved by Toowoomba Regional Council next week, it is expected to become regional Australia's premier performing arts and community centre.
Toowoomba Chamber of Commerce president Geoff McDonald said the project stood to benefit businesses throughout Toowoomba.
"Accommodation houses, restaurants and retail outlets should see the direct benefit of additional visitors, but other sectors such as education and training are also be set to benefit," he said.
Clive Armitage, a member of the project's fund-raising committee, agreed the centre would do more than take the city's performing arts to new heights.
"What have been overlooked are the benefits to businesses in this town," he said.
"There is a lot of opportunity that goes beyond theatre and the arts."
Heritage Building Society CEO John Minz said that although detail was scarce, he would support any project that enhanced the world-class Empire Theatre precinct.
"The Empire is a great asset to the city and does a wonderful job in supporting the region's cultural and artistic development," he said.
University of Southern Queensland Vice Chancellor Bill Lovegrove extended the university's congratulations to those involved in the planned development.
