Photo from our visit at King's Mountain National Battlefield.
We stopped at a nice little RV Park just north of Columbia, SC in a small town named Kinards called Magnolia RV Park and Campground. The park is a "mom and pop" park that appeared to have been a KOA in its prior life. There are a few resident campers on the lot but the spot the owner escorted me to was so level I didn't need to put the levelers down. This park has close access to highway 26 and is a Passport America park so our rate was under $18.00 with all taxes included. This is an excellent overnight stop as it is quiet and has a nice pool for a refreshing dip.
Photo from the Blue Hose softball field.
We didn't get too far down the road from Gaffney, SC since the Freightliner service folks were unable to finish the wiring our toad needed. Apparently it is hard to to ensure the signals all work when it is being towed. So we made an appointment with Campers World in Columbia, SC to get this work done.
But since we were in Kinards for the day we drove around to see a a few of the small town nearby. We drove into the small town of Clinton, SC where we saw signs for Presbyterian College. This is a small Division1 College that belongs to the Big South Conference. As we drove around their athletic facilities we noticed that their mascot was the Blue Hose – yes I said that right – the Blue Hose. Now googling Blue Hose will tell you that they were once fierce Scotch-Irish warriors but lets get real – Blue Hose – who wants to be called a Blue Hose?
The next morning we were about one hour north of town so we headed out just before 8:00 to make our 9:00 am appointment. It took a bit longer than I had hoped, but by 1:30pm we had our toad hooked up to our motorhome and were about to make our maiden voyage towing a toad. Not to mention this would be the the first time Sharon got to ride with me rather than follow me. It was a blast!
So with limited driving time we headed towards Savannah Georgia and pulled into another Passport America park (Hardeeville RV park) where once again I didn't need to put the levelers down. This park has about 12-13 miles off of the interstate but was only 10 minutes from Savannah. Another nice rate of $21.00 per night so we are probably going to stay 2 nights so we can go to Hilton Head, about 30 minutes away, and spend some more time in Savannah, a town we both like a lot. This park is an excellent overnight stop as it is fairly quiet and is one of the closest ones to Savannah.
So from here we head south where our next stop will either be in the Jacksonville Florida area or the Flagler Beach, Florida area. We are still about 430 north of our destination in the Florida Keys but we are getting closer… Ahhhh, life is so grand!!!
Is this the mascot of the Blue Hose or just a rolled up tarp????
P.S. I posted our bread recipes and how we make bread on the road in my other blog Road Treats!

Dear Family and Everyone
This is the last week of transfers. It has gone by really fast, i feel like i just got here. Its crazy to think that in this up coming transfer Paul will turn 19, go on his mision, i will turn 21 and finish 3/4 of my mision. And the way things are going this coming transfer will go by faster then this one. They just keep getting faster and faster. My guess is that i will be staying here in Lomitas Ensanada and i am fine with that. My companion is probably going.
You say its super hot in mexicali... i actually wouldnt mind going back and seeing how bad it really is. Its pretty hot hear too, or maybe its just the humididy and the constant climbing hills.
So this week we have been working really hard and finding new people to teach and setting baptismal date for them. Everyone in my district baptised this month which is great but now we are all without people who have set baptismal dates. So that is what we have been focused on for this week. We are teaching a family that could get baptised and actually have desires to get baptised but they are not married and the husband still has to fix some things with is devorcement papers from his last marrige... If they work hard in getting that stuff fixed they should be able to get baptized this month.
In other news i finally took pics of the house so you guys can see what it looks like. I just so happened to take pics when it was super dirty though. Its not usually that dirty. The othe pic is of that family that i just mentioned in the paragraph above and some extended family of theirs and out ward mision leader. If this was facebook i would just tag them all so you could know who is who but because this isnt facebook i will just have to leave you guessing. We took this pic right after a family home evening we had with them. It was their first FHM ever! It was pretty fun.
Well i hope you all have a great day
love you all

Circulating Steroids in Male Rats Following Inhalation of n-Alcohols
The effect of inhaled methanol, ethanol, n-propanol and n-butanol on male reproductive function as measured by the serum concentration of circulating T (testosterone) and LH (luteinizing hormone) has been investigated. The animals were exposed to concentrations of these alcohols equal to the current threshold limit values in industry (methanol: 200 ppm, ethanol: 1000 ppm, n-propanol, n-butanol: 50 ppm) 6 h a day for up to 1 week. A significant depression in the concentration of circulating T was found after the first 6 h exposure to the respective alcohols with restoration after a recovery period of 18 h, except in rats exposed to n-butanol where a depression of 48 could still measured. The concentration of LH was within the normal range in all experimental groups whereas corticosterone was increased after exposure to nbutanol. Exposure for 1 week was not associated with any significant inability of the rat testis to produce T.

Hey everyone!
Exactly half a year ago I decided to start this blog. I can tell you, it was already a slightly crazy road!
I realised after 5 complete months about 75% of my posts were crap. utter crap. At some point I hardly got any comments anymore and I noticed that I couldn't even stay focused on my own posts.
As you might have noticed, I have changed my writing style a bit from then on. I decided to make my posts shorter and easier to read. I found that a kind of poetic style was the best way for me to express my feelings and experiences in words.
I also decided that I should post less. I used to do two posts per week, but I changed my mind after a few weeks. The new writing style cost me a little more time to write, even though they are shorter, but I thought they were a lot better than what I used to write. I decided that I would only post if I was entirely proud of the post. Now it takes me about a week to write one post. I write it in my notebook, wait a few days, re-write it on my computer, combine them and then I wait a couple of days to see if I still like the post.
I also found that if I only posted once I felt more excited when I logged in on my blog. I missed it and I was more excited and inspired to write a new post.
Having this blog has also kind of helped me at school. Whenever we had to write some kind of essay I would think about how I would write it on my blog and go on from there. I didn't really need it though, because writing has always been one of my better qualities at school, but I never really realised untill now.
Starting this blog has been one of my best decisions ever. I love the way I can see myself grow. Because of this blog I started to think more about everything and nothing and it has helped me to grow as a person. I got more respect for myself, got to know myself more and started to realise what exactly I am worth. Looking back at my first post, I see that the second resolution is accomplished!
I definitely will continue posting and I am not even thinking a split second about quitting this blog. Thank you for all the lovely people who have decided to tag along past six months! And new supporters are always welcome!

Smokey The Rabbit Died Last Night
Now, you may wonder why I am telling you about Smokey the rabbit. He was seven years old or thereabouts and that's apparently a good life for a rabbit. Smokey was a well-loved rabbit and he was looked after with great care. Smokey belonged to a teenager called Jack, but I am told that he received most attention from Jack's sister Sammie.
The passing of Smokey the rabbit marks another milestone for the parents of Jack and Sammie. Sammie is Sammie Osborn, who left her family home in April 2007, aged just 15 years and has not returned. She is now 16 and is living in Bristol with the man she met on the internet.
While you've been gone, Sammie, your brother has become a young man. He has probably grown a few more inches in height and a few more bits of fluff on his chin, but to look at him you'd still see that brother you knew and lived with for the whole of his life until April 2007. You would recognise Jack anywhere, I am sure, because he won't have changed outwardly beyond all recognition. Inwardly, though, Sammie, your brother has done years of maturing emotionally since that day you left the home he now shares on his own with your parents. Jack has faced the kind of challenges that most young men of his age don't experience and those challenges have produced a mature young man of your kid brother.
Now, I am not telling you this to make you feel guilty. I am telling you because people's lives don't stand still. Your image of your home and your family may be frozen at April 2007, but things change and people grow and move on, especially young people. Your friends have taken their mock GCSEs and I'm sure they're going to be very busy now getting their coursework out of the way and revising for the real exams. They will all leave school in June and move on, mostly I imagine into further education, studying for their A levels and hoping to go to university. I have read some of the letters your friends sent to you and I can tell you there is still a gap where you once were. But Sammie, that gap will gradually be filled as your friends' lives change, as they meet new people in Sixth Form College and move on to other things. The experiences you should be sharing with them, they will share without you. You will not be forgotten by your friends, but the Sammie they knew will have gone forever, changed by time and circumstance as they are changed.
And now to Smokey. Another change since you were last at home. Your frozen image of your home may include a snapshot of Smokey in his hutch. Alas, Smokey died last night and I am sorry to tell you that Silky has also gone. The hutches are as empty as your bedroom. Another gap and another little bit of grief for those who love you.
I hope you are well and happy, Sammie, because if you ever decide to return to your family, I hope that you go back as a happy and more mature person who has benefited from all the experiences you have been through and that the changes in you are positive changes that you are really happy with. Nine months is a long time in a young person's life and you must have changed a great deal in that time, emotionally and physically. Sammie, please don't let the gaps grow too wide between you and your family and your friends. We only have one family, one mother, one father and you have one brother. There isn't another, ever. Please don't let them go, Sammie. Hold onto them. Please don't be in the position where you look back in a few years time and wish that the changes in your life had been changes you shared in the heart of your family.
For now, Sammie, I wish you well. Take care and whatever you do, be safe.

That is so true Anna...I really think for Sammy and her family its time to built some bridges, Life is too short, gaps are getting bigger and no one will benefit from it..I hope Sammy won't let go of the most important thing in her life right now..The love of 2 caring devoted parents,the comfort and protection of the family home, last but not least.. A good education that leads to a better standard of living...I hope and can only hope Sammy won't throw that away!

Mom's fever was around 103.9.
Her blood pressure continued to drop. The meds given brought it back up to a more reasonable level.
No word on heart enzymes.
Once MICU opens back up this morning, I'll be with Mom for the day shift.
I will continue to post updates throughout the day.
Please pray for her to improve as quickly as is God's plan. I want her to recover so that she will be well, even if it takes longer than we really want.

Internet is down at our office - so I'm in Starbucks. Wonder how many folks I'll bump into when I'm here. Starbucks is the center of the East Palo Alto universe.
As if I don't need more things to distract me, Jason sent me this. It's the top worst album covers. Swing your gospel axe! (a quote from one of the albums...) Man, this is great stuff. Jason says he has four of the records, he's an '80's music nerd.

2009 SAFF Cup: Sri Lanka Score Six Against Bhutan And Qualify For Semis
Sri Lanka took a giant step towards semi final qualification after thrashing Bhutan 6-0 at the Bangabandhu National Stadium, Dhaka in a Group B match of the 2009 SAFF Cup on Sunday afternoon. The goalless draw between Bangladesh and Pakistan in the evening game, confirmed Lanka's place in the last four.
Striker Kasun Jayasuriya scored a hat-trick, Ediri Channa bagged a brace and midfielder Chathura Gunaratne also got on the scoresheet.
Sri Lanka opened the scoring as early as the eighth minute when Ediri Channa got on the end of a lovely through pass from Sanjeev and slotted the ball past Bhutan keeper Leki with a very good finish.
The Lankans were dominating possession however Bhutan did have a great chance to level the scorers when Nawang Dhendup got a clear sight of goal but the striker failed to find the back of the net.
A few minutes later, midfielder Passang Tshering had a one on one situation with the Lanka custodian Lankasera but he delayed in taking the shot which allowed the Sri Lankan defence to clear away the danger.
Bhutan were punished for not taking those opportunities as Channa scored the second in the 25th minute after converting a pass from Issadeen.
Lanka striker Jayasuriya should have made it 3-0 in the 33rd minute but he uncharacteristically lacked composure in front of goal.
Bhutan could have pulled one back through Gyeltshen but the striker failed to hit the target after being well setup by Sonam Tenzing.
Jayasuriya finally managed to score the third five minutes before the break after finding the back of the net from a narrow angle.
Bhutan started a bit cautiously in the second half and there were not too many chances in the early stages. The Bhutanese boys improved their game and were threatening to score a goal.
Sri Lanka keeper Lankasera had to produce two good saves to preserve the clean sheet as both Gyeltshen and Nawang Dhendup were denied in quick succession.
Jayasuriya finally put the game to bed in the 66th minute by scoring his second of the game after some confusion in the Bhutan defence. Twelve minutes later, he got his hat-trick after finishing a pass from Issadeen.
Sri Lanka were hungry for more goals and Channa nearly scored the sixth seven minutes from the 90 but he blasted his effort wide of the target.
In the dying minutes of the game, midfielder Chathura Gunaratne scored his second of the game to make it 6-0 in favour of the 1995 champions.
Bhutan are now out of contention for a semi final place so their game against Pakistan on Tuesday will only be for pride.
Sri Lanka need a draw against Bangladesh to win the group but coach Sampatha Pereira might be tempted to rest a few key players considering the difficult fixture schedule.
Goalscorers: Ediri Channa (Sri Lanka) 8', 25', Kasun Jayasuriya (Sri Lanka) 40', 66', 78', Chathura Gunaratne (Sri Lanka) 90+2'

Amalfi, Amalfi Coast, Basilica del Crocifisso di Amalfi, Duomo di Sant'Andrea, Museo Diosecano di Amalfi, Pasticceria Pansa Amalfi
After Ravello, Amalfi paled into insignificance – it simply seemed like and ordinary but extremely busy town, packed with small shops brimming with stock aimed at tourists like us. Driving to Amalfi, the coastal town promises more – it is picturesque from above but we didn't find it quite as enticing as we expected. Perhaps Positano spoiled it for us – for me there was no comparison between the two – Positano is colourful and alluring, but Amalfi held little allure for us.
We parked in a carpark with an adjacent pedestrian tunnel leading into the main part of the town which was full of visitors milling around in the mid-afternoon sun, with many people still packing out the sidewalk cafes and restaurants.
While we found Amalfi town itself a little underwhelming, for me there were two outstanding sights. The huge Cathedral dedicated to Saint Andrew which looms over the main Piazza is impressive, and I was pleased to capture a photo of yet another beautiful Italian bride as Domenico and I ascended the stairs.
Beside the Cathedral (Duomo) is the outstanding Museo Diosecano di Amalfi which Domenico insisted I see while the others went in search of lemons (and guess what – in a coast famous for lemons they were very difficult to find). The Museum is housed within the Basilica del Crocifisso di Amalfi and contains superb religious treasurs and art.
We began by walking through The Cloister of Paradise where well-preserved medieval frescoes are on view – some very eye-catching:
The museum itself contains stunning art, clothing, and even a bishop's sedan chair…
The Crypt of Saint Andrew in the Basilica is breathtaking – literally:
The Duomo itself is enormous and ornate but we had spent a long time in the Crypt so I didn't linger :
On completing my tour with Domenico he insisted I should have a photo standing on the steep stairs leading to the Cathedral and also one with Frances at the base in the Piazza del Duomo.
We managed to find the boys who had been on an unsuccesful search for both a Bancomat and lemons and decided afternoon tea was in order. Domenico took us to the wonderful olde-world Pasticceria Pansa Amalfi where we had mouth-watering cakes and excellent coffees, served by the relations of the original founders:
After our coffee-break we continued the lemon search and finally we found a place willing to sell us some rather than make us lemon slushy or lemonade…
It was late afternoon by this time and we decided it was time to return to Praiano – it was a day of two halves – we had been enchanted with Ravello but somewhat disappointed with Amalfi – however we did return (but that is another story)… today we wandered back to the car through the busy streets, stopping to investigate whatever took our fancy …
On the way back to the villa , we stopped so we could view the nativity scenes placed on the roadside near the entrance to the Praiano – we had seen the nativities for sale in Naples and now we could see them as they are meant to be –
Arriving back at the villa we had another home-cooked meal and watched a truly beautiful sunset….
Next Post- the best laid plans ….

being single for quite a while has changed me. it changed the way i think about people. it changed the way how i react to something. and most importantly, it changed the way how i look at people. especially people that are also single. because while looking at people, i'm also searching. searching for someone that could fill in the blank. haha.
but now i know. it's not an easy thing to do. yes people might say there are many girls out there. but to find the right one, its nearly impossible.
my past lover. she was kinda perfect when i first knew her. but it happened too quick. and just as i thought, she was not meant for me. i have to admit i loved her so much at that time. it broke me. even seeing her now happily with her new lover. but that is the past now. nothing i can do about her.
i'm not saying i'm giving up on searching the right one. but its a tough journey. so i'll have to search slowly and thoroughly. i dont want the same thing to happen again. i dont want to be hurt like that again. but this search is tiring me. the more i search, the more types of people i'll find. sometimes weird, sometimes freakish, sometimes a lil bit over. i dont think that i'm being fussy. its just that everyone(including me), has the right to choose, to have a particular taste on their future lover, to have specific likings.
i'm not putting mine too high. i'm not looking only from the outside. this time, i want to find the perfect one. i want to get to know the person well. but for now, theres no candidates. yet.
so now, all i have is my friends. they're the place where i tell my stories. good or bad. happy or not. everything.
but as a normal human being, i still need someone that is more than a friend. so being single, isn't that great actually for me, for the time being.
May 16, 2011

Stanton, Marlins knock off Diamondbacks
After double-digit scoring wasn't sufficient the night before, the Miami Marlins again surpassed 10 runs and kept the Arizona Diamondbacks from clinching a postseason berth.
Giancarlo Stanton's 57th home run helped lead the Marlins to a 12-6 win over the Diamondbacks on Saturday night.
Unlike Friday, when the Marlins scored eight runs against Arizona Diamondbacks starter Zach Greinke but Marlins pitchers allowed 13 runs in a 13-11 loss, Miami took an early lead and relievers surrendered one run through the final five innings.
Stanton went 3-for-6 and was a triple shy of the cycle. Stanton drove in four runs and became the Marlins' season RBI leader with 124, breaking the previous mark of 120 set by Preston Wilson in 2000.
"RBIs are cool, too, because I'm always known for homers," Stanton said on the Marlins' postgame TV show. "To get up there in RBI you have to be a good hitter, too."
Justin Bour homered for the fourth consecutive game as his two-run opposite-field shot in the eighth gave Miami an 11-6 lead. Bour's shot bounced off the left-field foul pole for his 25th home run.
Miami (73-81) took the lead for good with a five-run third and withstood home runs from Arizona's J.D. Martinez and Paul Goldschmidt. Martinez now has 43 homers and Goldschmidt connected for the 36th time this season.
The loss kept Arizona (89-66) within one game of clinching a wild-card berth.
"We didn't close the deal the way we wanted," Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said. "We are very proud what we accomplished at this point, but we got to reload for (Sunday) and make sure we do this thing right."
Brian Ellington (1-1) pitched two innings of relief for the win. Ellington struck out three around Martinez's solo home run.
"This ballpark you just don't feel comfortable," Miami manager Don Mattingly said. "You know things happen fast. The ball jumps. It's an offensive ballpark. It's not like a regular place where you get a couple of runs lead and start feeling comfortable late in the game. You don't feel comfortable here."
Neither starter reached the fifth inning. Arizona's Taijuan Walker (9-9) allowed six runs and six hits, walked three and struck out six in 3 2/3 innings.
Despite enjoying four- and three-run leads, Miami's Dillon Peters was lifted for a pinch hitter after four innings. Peters surrendered five runs, six hits, walked three and struck out one.
Martinez's solo homer off Ellington in the fifth put Arizona within 7-6. Stanton leaped and attempted to catch Martinez's opposite-field shot before it landed over the wall in right-center field.
Stanton's solo homer and Bour's RBI single in the fourth gave Miami a 7-4 lead. Bour's single to shallow center scored Christian Yelich from second. Yelich originally was called out on second baseman Brandon Drury's throw to catcher Chris Ianetta, but Miami challenged the play and a video review overturned the call.
"It's tough, but I got to try to keep putting good barrel on the ball and the rest takes care of itself," Stanton said of his pursuit of reaching 60 home runs.
The Marlins erased a 1-0 deficit with a five-run third keyed by Stanton's two-run double and a fielding error by Walker off Dee Gordon's short dribbler that scored Miguel Rojas from third. Bour drove in a run with a single and Brian Anderson's sacrifice fly to deep center scored Miami's fifth run of the inning.
"Offense did a really good job putting up runs," Walker said. "I just didn't do my job and have that shutdown inning. I have to do my job — make the plays and get that shut down inning."
Goldschmidt's three-run homer off Peters in the bottom of the inning cut the deficit to 5-4.
Drury's home run to lead off the second gave the Diamondbacks a 1-0 lead. Drury drove Peters' pitch above the wall in right-center field for his 13th homer of the season.
NOTES: 2B Dee Gordon favored his right leg as he attempted to beat out a grounder in the fourth inning. Although Gordon limped on his way to the dugout, he remained in the game. ... 3B Martin Prado, sidelined since mid-July because of a right knee injury that required arthroscopic surgery, is traveling with the Marlins on their road trip to Arizona and Colorado. Prado took batting practice before Saturday's game and is targeting possible pinch-hit opportunities the final week of the season. ... J.D. Martinez has 27 home runs since July 19, second behind Stanton. Martinez also drove in his 28th run of the month, tying Luis Gonzalez for the one-month record he set in March-April 2000. ... Saturday's crowd of 39,259 at Chase Field pushed the Diamondbacks past two million in home attendance for the season. Arizona has never drawn less than two million at home in the club's 19-year history.

I used to have an uncanny ability to handle disorder. This was so because it wasn't disorder at all. It was more like a deep-seated desire to piss my Mom off as a teenager; why of course I could find anything in my room, despite what she might think. "You want me to prove it," I'd say, "well just ask me to find something?" Guess she never did and I'd have to "clean up" my room anyway, her way. Uhhhg!
But I always kept to my orderly way, in a way. Take my books for instance. I could find any book I wanted from any pile whenever I wanted. There was order in my apparently disordered piles. I mean it. I could go from shelve to shelve, from horizontal to vertical stacks, and find the title I wanted as though I knew the exact locations with photographic memory. I'd get this sudden urge to read, whatever, say, Notes from the Underground -- yes, I was a strange kid, an angry kid -- and I'd find it on the fourth pile on the left. Just like that.
That ability has gone. I still have piles: in my office, on my desk, on my night table, but I no longer know where that particular title is to be found. (And you know that you always need that book, the one, the one you can't find.)
This is somehow connected to bicycles. No, let's not exaggerate. I do know where I park my bike at work and it is difficult to misplace my Piglet it in my garage – almost. But it happens most often with my bike tools and gear and I have but very few of those, mind you. But damn I had the screwdriver right by the rear wheel! Where did I put the light? My vest? The pump? What's the pump doing in my wife's bike when I needed it just on this ride?! (Not to mention the spare tube with the wrong valve to fit my pump; or was it the right pump to fit the wrong tube?)

I agree with Micheal Widlake's rant on Why is "Dave Unknown" Trying to Social Media With Me? on LinkedIn.
Widlake compares garnering LinkedIn contacts with stamp-collecting (except the latter requires more thought and planning):
Over 500 contacts? Really? Really? And you know all these people? No, you don't Dave. You are just collecting stamps. I'm as important to you as that. So now, though I know nothing much about you, I know I am unimportant to you, I'm just a stamp. I definitely do NOT want to be LinkedIn with you.
Occasionally it is worse. I'm not a stamp, I'm a little bit of potential collateral, a maybe-bit-of-income for them. The person is a recruitment consultant or a salesperson or a company representative who has figured out that for every 200 hundred people they bother they get a lead. So they contact thousands of us. Well, you can really stuff your invite up where the sun does not shine.
But most of the time it is stamp collecting. This seems very common with our South Asian friends. I don't know why, maybe it is a cultural thing, maybe the universities there tell their students that this is a good way to progress (I can't see that it is but I'm happy to be corrected if I am wrong), I don't know – but 75% of LinkedIn invites I get from people with 500+ contacts are from that part of the world.
Despite being much further out on the long tail than Widlake, I still get similar invitations. Obscurity does not entail safety in the online world.
But I see as a price I have to pay to use the LinkenIn service for free.
One thing I have noticed recently is that LinkenIn have removed the Ignore button on their invitations. Maybe we all wore it out!

I've heard that many public universities are cutting back on their 2009-2010 course offerings in response to deep budget cuts. That means it will take a lot of students longer to graduate. While that's not what the parents of students and students themselves want to hear, it does represent a great opportunity to rethink ways of building your expertise and credibility.
It's surprising how many people see their lack of a degree in the field of work they wish to pursue as a handicap.
Let me remind you that my sister, who studied Painting, for goodness sake, at the University of Georgia, enjoys (most of the time) a productive executive career working with marketing of software to the healthcare industry. I don't think color coordination was a requirement for that job, but her company loves her multidisciplinarian approach to her work. Clients love her non-geeky way of explaining how the software works.
Here are two really important facts to keep in mind:
1. College degrees are overrated. Lot's of really smart people who make tons of money didn't get one at all: Bill Gates and Steve Jobs are just two of the most famous examples.
2. There are so many gazillion ways of getting the expertise you want.
I like to tell my students that everything I teach them they can learn other places as well. I never did see the point of paying $120 for a "required" public speaking textbook when there are hundreds of excellent books on the subject at the local bookstore that sell for less than $20 each. (The collusion of universities with college textbook industry is subject for another post.)
BTW, I wrote this post on Saturday and Sunday morning Seth Godin sent out his take on the textbook charade. Click here to read it.
Books are one great source. Mentors may be even better. Especially if you read the books they recommend.
Ali Brown, owner of a multimillion dollar Internet marketing company recently contracted a woman executive to be her mentor. This woman is head of a multibillion dollar empire, and Ali pays her a cool half million for a year's worth of mentoring.
You could probably find a local expert for a fraction of that -- in almost any field that interests you.
Whether you support homeschooling or not, that movement has resulted in significant, though far from sufficient, changes in our public elementary education system: charter schools, magnet schools, vouchers, etc.
Maybe it's time to recognize the value of tested expertise from non-university sources. Your own experience counts!

Isaiah 42:1-4,6-7 (or Acts 10:34-38 or Is 40:1-5, 9-11 or Ti 2:11-14; 3:4-7)
Psalm 29:1-4, 9-10 (or Ps 104:1-4, 24-25, 27-30)
My thoughts:
What do you think went on in Jesus' mind when He heard the voice from Heaven – "You are my Son, the Beloved; with you I am well pleased."?
I think He must have felt the joy and love that comes from any son hearing these precious words from their father. In fact, all of us long to hear these words… daily. Maybe your father has never told you words along the line of that you are his beloved son with whom he is well pleased. This can be a frustrating reality.
Nevertheless, God wants to tell us. Today. When we receive Christ in the Eucharist. When we abide in Him and He in us, God the Father looks at us as His beloved son. Listen to Him. Spend some time in prayer. You are His beloved son. He delights in you. He loves you deeply. As if you were his only son.
Bishop Barron's Homily: VITAE SPIRITUALIS IANUA
Scott Hahn: The Anointing
The Liturgy last week revealed the mystery of God's plan – that in Jesus all peoples, symbolized by the Magi, have been made "co-heirs" to the blessings promised Israel. This week, we're shown how we claim our inheritance.
Jesus doesn't submit to John's baptism as a sinner in need of purification. He humbles Himself to pass through Jordan's waters in order to lead a new "exodus" – opening up the promised land of heaven so that all peoples can hear the words pronounced over Jesus today, words once reserved only for Israel and its king: that each of us is a beloved son or daughter of God (see Genesis 22:2; Exodus 4:22; Psalm 2:7).
Jesus is the chosen servant Isaiah prophesies in today's First Reading, anointed with the Spirit to make things right and just on earth. God puts His Spirit upon Jesus to make Him "a covenant of the people," the liberator of the captives, the light to the nations. Jesus, today's Second Reading tells us, is the One long expected in Israel, "anointed…with the Holy Spirit and power."
The word Messiah means "one anointed" with God's Spirit. King David was "the anointed of the God of Jacob" (see 2 Samuel 23:1-17; Psalm 18:51; 132:10,17). The prophets taught Israel to await a royal offshoot of David, upon whom the Spirit would rest (see Isaiah 11:1-2; Daniel 9:25).
That's why the crowds are so anxious at the start of today's Gospel. But it isn't John they're looking for. God confirms with His own voice what the Angel earlier told Mary – Jesus is the Son of the Most High, come to claim the throne of David forever (see Luke 1:32-33).
In the Baptism that He brings, the voice of God will hover over the waters as fiery flame, as we sing in today's Psalm. He has sanctified the waters, made them a passage-way to healing and freedom – a fountain of new birth and everlasting life.

ZIMBABWE Parks and Wildlife Management Authority has lost more than US$5 million in revenue due to poaching and other indirect operations.
The director of conservation, Mr Vitalis Chadenga, said the authority has lost US$5 million through poaching.
"Poaching has become a major problem and we lost quite a number of our black rhinos and measures have been put in place to counter the problem," he said.
Areas hardest hit by rhino poachers are Lake Chivero, the Midlands, Hwange and the south-eastern Lowveld, where there are many unlicensed guns smuggled through the country's porous border with Mozambique.
The parks authority is currently exploring ways of curbing the poaching of rhinos by reviving intensive patrol zones that were successfully employed in the past to combat poaching of endangered species like rhinos.
Mr Chadenga also revealed that efforts are underway to recruit and train more rangers to beef up staff to tackle the new challenges posed by poachers.
The parks authority is also working with other stakeholders such as the police and private conservancies to come up with new strategies to combat poaching, he said.
Environmental and Natural Resources Management Minister Francis Nhema acknowledged that there has been a steady decline in poaching after the nation embarked on an intensive awareness campaign in communities surrounded by parks.
"We are seeing a decline in cases of rhino poaching after we held massive campaigns in these communities educating them about the value of the animals and their importance to the economy."
After our successive operations with the police and army we are making a lot of difference in these parks and our security forces on the ground have been assisting us to flush out poachers," said Minister Nhema
The killing of at least 70 rhinos in the past 12 months by well-co-ordinated poaching syndicates around the world has placed the country on the agenda of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (Cites) meetings scheduled for next year.
Since January this year, at least 10 poachers have been shot dead and several arrested trying to kill and de-horn rhinos around the country.
Minister Nhema added that the availability of resources has also enhanced the decline in cases of poaching around the targeted areas.
"We now have sufficient equipment and resources to carry out our operations in rhino-infested areas as this is also assisting us in nabbing the poachers."
Our rhinos now have collar bands through which we can easily track them in a given radius, therefore monitoring of the animals has become easier," he said.
Government has been making concerted efforts to de-horn rhinos so as to reduce their value to poachers, but the process must be repeated because the horns sprout after a given period.
Recently the ministry has been relocating rhinos to safe areas near towns so as to derail attempts of poaching. The surge in poaching in recent years is partly attributed to the rising demand for rhino horns by the Chinese black market.
Mr Nhema added that the security forces and the community awareness campaigns in the country's rhino-infested areas would continue until rhino killing has gone down.

Back in the early '80s, I'd occasionally attend a regularly scheduled, Saturday night party of Capitol Hill staffers who made it a sport to sit around the TV in someone's high-rise apartment building and laugh at the McLaughlin Group.
It was a lot of yuks and a lot of flip comments and it was the first time I recall hearing what has become a pretty standard joke: Watching the documentation of one federal-government failure after another, someone asked, "Why do we even need a federal government at all?"
Without missing a beat, someone answered, "Louisiana."
Like everything else in Washington, jokes need to be explained. This one implies that if you could count on states to do the right thing you would not need a federal government. But there will always be one or two states where they believe that education and jury trials should be optional, executions and air pollution should be mandatory and that only white, landowning males should be allowed to vote.

So we talk a lot about Uncle Joel and how he is over in Iraq. We were able to say hello to him on Christmas morning and he sounded great. He is coming back in late January and we are going to go out and visit the Sgt Collins Gang in April. Uncle Joel is a great man. He is a great brother and an even better parent to his kids. I love spending time with him and talking about politics. I always enjoy seeing him and really am looking forward to him coming home.
All that being said I have built a really strong relationship with my other brother in law, Jon, over the past few years. I don't talk about him as much on this blog, partially because he is not over in Iraq, but also because he is a humble guy and I don't think he necessarily would want me to.
But, I realized this past holiday how much he means to me and my family. Uncle Jon is such a great friend and he really is one of the most humble and caring guys you would ever meet. He is someone I am so happy to know and be related to, if not by blood, by law.
Jon and I are very much alike in our interests. He loves Howard Stern also and has a great sense of humor. I love golfing with him because he is laid back and has fun. I love just sitting around with him and talking. I also love when he plays with Dryver and Stryde. They absolutely love him and love 'having pillow fights' with him as much as possible.
Jon is the young one in the family and he is just getting his groove. He is trying to find where he wants to go, and he as been very successful in all his business and personal endeavors. It will be fun to share his experiences with him as he gets older. I am excited for the opportunity to have his kids play with Dryver and Stryde one day also.
Though Uncle Joel is busy protecting us, Uncle Jon is caring for our family. That is why I love Jennifer's family so much. They really mean a lot to me and have made a big impact on me for who I am and on where we are heading!

The defunct gossip blog Gawker.com has a new owner.
Bustle and Bleacher Report founder Bryan Goldberg put in the winning $1.35 million bid for the website in an auction held Thursday in Manhattan, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Gawker.com shuttered in August 2016 after a lawsuit filed by Hulk Hogan and funded by Peter Thiel bankrupted its publisher, Gawker Media.
Hogan is reportedly entitled to as much as 45% of the sale price.
Nearly two years after a legal battle with Hulk Hogan and Peter Thiel shuttered Gawker.com, the storied and snarky gossip blog has a new owner.
Rights to the now-defunct Gawker.com domain name, its social media accounts, and its story archives will go to Bryan Goldberg, founder of Bleacher Reporter and Bustle, according to the Wall Street Journal. Goldberg's $1.35 million won out at an auction held Thursday in Manhattan, according to the New York Post.
Goldberg first came onto the media scene in 2007 when he founded the sports blog Bleacher Report. In 2012, he sold Bleacher Report to Time Warner for $175 million in 2012.
Two years later, he launched Bustle, a site aimed at Millennial women. Bustle Media Group, which is venture backed, was last valued at $181.5 million in 2017, according to PitchBook.
Gawker.com shuttered after a legal battle with Hulk Hogan
The sale of Gawker.com comes two years after a legal battled forced Gawker Media, the publisher of Gawker.com and a network of other sites, to file for bankruptcy in June 2016. Gawker lost a $140 million lawsuit against Hulk Hogan in a prolonged legal battle funded by venture capitalist and Facebook board member Peter Thiel.
According to a recent story by the Observer, Hogan is entitled to 45% of the selling price as part of the Gawker Media bankruptcy settlement. At the reported sale price …read more

What is veterans preference?
Qualified veterans may be given preferential treatment when being hired. This applies only to initial hiring into the FAA; it subsequently has no effect or application. Veterans' preference is outlined in Section 2108 Title 5 of the US code. The Department of Labor has a Veterans' Preference Advisor which will ask you a series of questions to determine your eligibility.
What does it mean to buy back my military time?
You may elect to pay a calculated sum back to the government based on your military service length. Time spent in the military and subsequently bought back, will be added to your service computation date (the "effective" date you started working for the FAA used in retirement calculations). It starts at 3% of your total military pay (interest is added after you have been a federal civilian employee for over 2 years, but stops accruing as soon as you start the buy back).
How do I buy back military time?
Please download the file from the resources page, as it contains all the instructions and documents you need.
What will my pay be after being hired?
For non-prior experience hires, there is no extra pay. They standard salary at the academy is $23,547 (2017).
For prior experienced hires required to attend the academy, you will be paid at the AG level with Washington DC locality ($49,029 for 2017). At the facility, pay will be set to the bottom of the lowest developmental level (D1, D2, D3).
Do I earn extra leave?
All federal service counts when calculating how much leave you accrue, including military service. Leave accrues as follows:
- 1-3 yrs service: 4hrs per pay period
- 3-15 yrs service: 6hrs per pay period
- 15+ yrs service: 8hrs per pay period
6hrs/pp come out to 19.5 days of leave a year. Those in this category are given an extra 4hrs at the end of the year to round it to 20 days.
GI Bill
On the job training in the FAA qualifies for the Montgomery and Post 9/11 GI Bills.
Notable points:
- You can start the GI Bill as soon as you get to your facility. If you went to the academy, you will receive back-pay for your time there.
- You can use it at as many facilities as you want, with the only limitation being the remaining benefits.
- You are paid the BAH rate of E5 with dependent pay for your locality. Use the facility zip code to search for the rate.
- This is only the starting pay rate. It is reduced in accordance with the payment plan
Please see the GI Bill SOP resource for more detailed information.
Military Leave (Guard/Reserve Duty)
120 hrs are accrued a year (15 days), and a max of 120 hrs can be carried over into the next year. Leave is only charged for the normal scheduled working hours.
Military leave and military leave without pay (LWOP) are considered creditable service. There is no penalty on federal benefits (length of service, retirement pay, etc.). See the OPM site for more detials.
Consult the OPM military leave fact sheet and this thread for more information.

"I took this pic in 5 Star toilet during a course break!" Angeline laughs.
A working mum 24/7.
A service management manager cum business consultant, Mondays to Fridays.
And then the weekend arrives ...
And Angeline brings you Chics Closet!
Chics Closet, pioneer of non-nomadic bazaars and the infamous traders-get-traders project, is now brewing two awesome events that we'll be talking about for a long time to come! :)If you're a staunch member of the online shopping community, you'll definitely have seen the flyers around by now! :D
First up, we have Youthtopia at Tropicana City Mall!I love that name, don't you? :D "Youthtopia", I mean - not "Tropicana City Mall", haha! I might just be stating the obvious here, but it gives me the impression that it's meant to be a Utopia For Youth. :P Well, Utopia or just an awesome bazaar, it officially launches on 18th April (Saturday) from 12pm to 8pm! :D
From then onwards, you get to have a slice of Youthtopia EVERY first & last weekend of the month!
Can you say Wheeeeeeee?
Want more?
Second up - Retail Therapy bazaar at Monash University, Sunway campus!
Held for ONE DAY ONLY, in conjunction with the Monash Music Festival - 25th April (Saturday) from 12pm onwards. Don't miss it!
*Psst... Your Shopping Kaki's uni! :D*
Your Shopping Kaki was also honoured with an interview with the delightful Angeline Chin, founder and Chief of Chics Closet! :D
Q&A with Chics Closet
- YSK: Who are the people behind Chics Closet?
- Angeline: Used to be Angeline Chin (Chief…the chatty and the mastermind) and Jasmine Kee (Deputy…the quiet and deep thinker one), but Jasmine has left due to career commitment and left Angeline to man the business. Just recently Melissa Lai (the young and energetic one) joined the team as the new deputy after an SOS announcement in search of new assistant was published in the group's Facebook and website. :) And she joined after a tedious selection of numerous email application sent to Chics Closet. Melissa fits in perfectly with the eccentric Angeline due to her likeable character and intelligence :) Melissa (or Mel) reminds Angeline of the energy she once had! Hahaha…
- YSK: What started Chics Closet? ;)
- Angeline: Chics Closet was born out of a deep thought in the loo. Yes, it is a pet project of Curvychics (blogshop) after Angeline witnessed the numbers of youth traders that has grown rapidly like mushrooms – scrambling for a platform to showcase their talent/skills in business, music and art. Most of the bazaars at that time were organized once a month or once every two months and the team decided it is good to have a regular bazaars to enable youth make steady income. Chics Closet basically complements the market by providing an alternative outlet for youth traders.
- YSK: What is the purpose of Chics Closet? What is your big end goal?
- Angeline: Our objective is very simple – to provide a platform for Youth Entrepreneurs to showcase their business skills or talents. By having this platform, they are able to get close to community and eventually generate an income. Or perhaps, being spotted by companies/organizations that will hire them if their products/services matches the requirements :) It's a win win exposure for everyone! :)
- YSK: What is the Chics Closet website about actually? It's a not a review blog, it's not a blogshop... so it's obviously something different. What is that difference? :D What sets Chics Closet apart, makes it special?
- Angeline: We basically announce events and to make it personalize, we share music, opinions from time to time. We don't mind being a review blog some day. At the moment, we're working on something as we expand our horizon :) We'd like to think that everything we started, there will be a continuum to it, hence we might branch out to doing other things that is related ;-)
- YSK: When did Chics Closet start? How long have you guys been around? (A spin-off from a blogshop, if I'm not mistaken?)
- Angeline: The team has been around for more than a year now, you are right… a spinoff from a blogshop. Being a trader ourselves, we knew what traders want. But we only seriously take off with the event business mid of last year…after a series of discussion and observation.
- YSK: What events (a.k.a. successes) does Chics Closet have under its belt?
- Angeline: Our first (we were raw and green and is open to better ourselves!!) was for WiP Café, Bangsar (sister café of the famous Souled Out Hartamas. Then we moved on to Sundays Sundaes at 3rd Mile Square, Jalan Klang Lama. We were there every Sunday! We decided to move to a better place after gathering facts and surveys on every post mortem we've done with the team. We knew both traders and customers wants comfortable place to do business and shop :) We believe in the Togetherness = Unity = Sharing concept, in view of that we have extended our invite to any bazaar organizers (even performers) out there who wants to join us in our events. The ocean is wide enough for all of us, so we don't see why we cant share them with one another :)
Hope you had an insightful & enjoyable read! :)
Happy Shopping!
Your Shopping Kaki :)

Eugene Kryczka Drops Out of Antioch Township Assessor Race In Face of Petition Scandal (UPDATED)
UPDATED 02/05/09: The News-sun has an article this morning. Kryczka cites personal reasons for pulling out the of race:
Kryczka said he could not afford to continue the race. He had missed too much time from work and he did not want to put his company in jeopardy in this bad economy. He had promised to self-finance his campaign and not take contributions.
The Daily Herald had only a minor note, here. As much as I like the Herald, I'm just a bit concerned about a double standard here. If it was a Republican caught up in this scandal and quit the race under these circumstances, I think the media (and not just the Herald) would be relentless in covering this story and would not be nearly so circumspect in connecting the dots.
Seriously- does anyone really believe Kryczka's lame explanation? The race barely gets off the ground, and the time commitment all of a sudden took you by surprise? Oh, and it's right after you're accused of forgery? Coincidence, coincidence, I'm sure.
Note to candidates: Once your petitions are in, if you don't want to work hard at the campaign, you don't. Maybe you'll win, and maybe you'll lose. But you are the master of your own destiny.
Well, I don't think Kryczka's pulling out of the race will have much effect on the State's Attorney's investigation. Forgery is forgery, so we'll see what comes out of this. All I can say is that the Dems need to take a class in either ethical petition circulation (with Terry Link sitting in the front row, taking notes), or they better improve their forgery skills, and stop copying names out of the phone book or obits.
7 comments:
Reading the 10th Dems newsletter online this evening with myriad pictures of horribly aging soccer moms/activists it is confirmable that Republicans truly are the better looking party.
Also good to see Lauren Beth Gash finally made it to D.C. 10 years after getting her butt kicked by Cholly, Patrick, Jim McKiernan and John McGovern. Wonder if she ran into any of the staff that quit on her before voters did.
- February 4, 2009 at 7:34 PM
Didn't Eugene pay attention when Senator Link was giving classes on how to get away with forging signatures on petitions.
The candidate IS NEVER SUPPOSED TO DO IT - Rules: 1) hire people that are desperate for money 2) DO NOT TRAIN THEM 3) tell them you will pay them cash - $1 per signature 4) when they get arrested throw them under the bus 5) become cozy (or threatening) to the Appellate Prosecutor 6) take no responsibility and play the victim
7) laugh as your campaign workers are carried off to jail 8) take the Appellate Prosecutor out for a drink (he did say you cooperated after all) 8) train fellow Democrat candidates to do the same.
Eugene - you need to pay attention at those EDDI Meetings - SNAP!

According to Ellen, Mark Kirk "hates Illinois" because he calls it corrupt and speaks out against its corruption.
The logic or lack thereof speaks for itself.
To use an Ellenism by asking her a question: "Hey Ellen, why do you love corruption so much?"

You crack me up, Foklaes! The latest piece of trash from Gill, Gash, Sheffey and others who spew their hate-filled newsletter with anti-Kirk rhetoric each month have THIS month gone way over the top. The pictures of Ms.Trash and her hubby at the Inauguration are just priceless. That will be the closest she gets to DC - ever. The more they bash Mark Kirk the stronger he becomes. Sicko catwoman becomes more and more obsessed with our congressman by the hour. It's almost humorous. But back to TA's post today.Perhaps the new order in DC is getting local folks to realize that someone IS looking at what's going on, even at the local level, and honest dealings are what's expected and perhaps even demanded. So Kryczka is OUT. That's great! Let's see how long it takes to rid ourselves of all the other dead wood in and out of the system. You almost feel sorry for our new president. The free ride seems to be ending!
- February 5, 2009 at 1:46 AM
Anon 1:46 a.m. if you read sheffey often like I do, the guy is clearly a card carrying member of the palestinian liberation organization. The way he routinely knocks Mark down for supporting Israel, you expect a column photo of him in a kaffeyah-that's the arafat headgear in the next issue.
Neil Steinberg has been a flaming out of the closet Democratic spin machine at the sun-times for years (when he wasn't drinking) so it wasn't really a surprise to see him address what looks like the del boca vista senior center but is reportedly some sort of propaganda camp for aging local liberal democrats.
- February 5, 2009 at 11:39 AM
Anon 11:39, I know this misguided jackrabbit. He is a past president of the local pro-Israel PAC, which really ticks me off, big time. You are right in saying that he's a card carrying something or other. Bottom line: Steve Sheffey is a hard core Democrat MORE than he is anything else. Sadly, there are others out here just like him. That he writes LTE's, that he spews this crap angers me more than I can say but I think you get the message. He is a total and complete disgrace, someone who KNOWS that Mark Kirk stands head and shoulders above everyone in the US House when it comes to support for the US/Israel alliance. Shame on Sheffey. One can be a hard core D but one should not write the misguided crap that he does and get away with it. As with the catwoman, I suppose it's easier and better for one's health to just ignore both of them. They speak only to their select group of 10th Dem groupies since everyone else who knows the truth understands that Sheffey and Gill have no credibility within the pro-Israel world.
- February 5, 2009 at 11:53 AM
Wretched extremists like catwoman, sheffey, gash and the pup need to be outed and exposed.
One more reason for Mark to stay in the house is that in the next term with 2 gop retirements he will be in line to control funding for Israel and the middle east. I find it HIGHLY UNLIKELY that the jewish donor community will ever want to see him challenged once he gets there given his strong support for Israel and the lack of Republicans with anywhere close to his history on Israel.

Rosie O'Donnell Miami Mansion
The comedienne television host has listed her mansion on Star Island for a $19,500,000 after originally buying her pad for $6,750,000 in 1999.
The 50-year-old's property is more than 11,000 square feet in size and is situated on a 48,266 plot of land with 203 linear foot of a southeast-facing waterfront view.
Just one day after being put on the market earlier this month, her 12-room, 6,000-square-foot house in Chicago – where the show was first filmed before being moved to New York - found a buyer.
Hours after O'Donnell listed the five-bedroom house for $2.5 million, the home went under contract according to the Chicago Tribune.
The star bought the house last autumn for $2.25 million from Erik Logan, the president of OWN.
Though O'Donnell occupied a corporate apartment while working in the Windy City, she had lived in the home for a time.
However, the Chicago Tribune reported that with her children visiting her in Chicago from their Big Apple home only on weekends, the talk-show host felt she did not need as much space.
But less than two weeks later it emerged her show was to be cancelled, reportedly sparking a feud between Winfrey and Rosie.
A source told RadarOnline: 'Oprah wanted to handle the announcement of the cancellation in a professional and dignified manner. Rosie thanked Oprah for the opportunity and ended the conversation very abruptly.'
But Rosie was apparently unhappy at the language used in the press release making Oprah's decision public.
When Oprah's public relations team at OWN asked Rosie to call Oprah directly, she failed to do so and got her own camp to act as a go-between, the website claims.

Subtitled "The Ultimate Book of Lists for Parents of Young Children," the paperback is the second collaborative effort of Persons and five other New York City women who dispense their tried-and-true advice to new mothers under the name "The Riverside Mothers Group."
