Foxes Farewell, June 24, 2009
Hi All,
A neighbor said he saw an adult fox, with four kits following behind, walking along the ranch road. I am nearly certain this little family is our family of foxes. Foxes use a wide territory and mark it very carefully. The road is well within the range of the male fox. I have seen him crossing this road on his way into the pastures up the hill. He seems to do so quickly and is alert when a car comes along. The last time I saw the little foxes, they had already picked up some of dad's survival skills. Their brains must be like little sponges right now, soaking up everything they can about hunting and basic survival. I hope they can navigate roads and traffic fairly well by now. The highway is a different story. I think it is a rare animal that figures out speeding cars and bright lights at night.
The foxes are definitely gone from the den. There is still a hollow feeling to the garden even though they have been gone for some days. I still run to the window every time I hear a sound. My source says that gray foxes are clannish, and even when the young do leave the parents in the late fall, they associate with each other on a limited basis. This species can live in the wild for 4 to 8 years, so I hope they have long, healthy lives. Below are some photos, more like formal portraits, taken last year by my wildlife photographer friend, Ron LeValley, just before those little foxes left the den. These show what our foxes look like today. (To see more of Ron LeValley's fabulous work and to sign up for a photo of the day emailed to you, go to http://www.levalleyphoto.com/gallery/omw.php and www.levalleyphoto.com/gallery
In any case, I wish the little foxes well: stay away from roads, don't get caught in headlights, never go near dogs, watch out for great horned owls, avoid humans, and don't eat anybody's chickens.
Love, Erica

Well I made it home safe and sound from Philadelphia. I've got to say the flight wasn't too terrible. Except for the person who obviously ate a truck load of beans and proceeded to stink the plane up for the first half of the treck. GROSS! Either way we made it there at almost the exact time the ticket said we would. The trip to get our luggage was quick, and almost as quick to get the rental car. Then I proceeded to beg my boss to head to the historic district so we could do a crash course of history (i.e. Liberty Bell, Independence Hall and whatever came in between) However, first on my list was CHEESESTEAK!!!! Since I've had them at home I had an idea of how wonderful they are, but when you get one in Philly, it's a bit different, and A LOT more tasty...Here's a picture of the momentus occasion:
This weekend is going to be some good fun. Steve has taken off to Cadillac for the weekend with some buddys for a bachelor party weekend. There are staying at a cabin and going to do some fishing, and card playing, and whatnot. I was all for him going on this trip (mainly because it involves fishing and nature, and not VEGAS and DEBAUCHERY)and I'm glad he gets to go. It wasn't an expensive trip, so it was doable. When he gets back he is going to get his school stuff taken care of, and I'll get getting ready for the end of the semester and our trip to Florida.
3 weeks (AHHHH, 3 WEEKS!!!) to go until we are on white sandy beaches!! I can't wait! Plus we get to see the Tadlock's and Collier's (and all the babies in between that we haven't met yet!) who live only minutes from said beaches. Steve and I are driving straight through down there, and will be spending some quality time with each of our friends, then taking our time coming home. We haven't made any set plans which is a HUGE CHANGE for me, since I'm anal and like to plan everything ahead of time. The only things we have figured out (but not set in stone) are:
1. TNT Firework Seminar June 13th
2. Mammoth Cave
3. Nashville
4. Dollywood
5. Unclaimed Baggage Warehouse

Topic Page: Mutual funds
in finance, investment company or trust that has a very fluid capital stock. It is unique in that at any time it can sell or redeem any of its outstanding shares at net asset value (i.e., the price of a share equals total assets minus liabilities divided by the total number of shares). A mutual fund, also called an open-end investment company, owns the securities of several corporations and receives dividends on the shares that it holds. A closed-end investment company differs from an open-end company in that the number of shares is limited and the price of the shares may fluctuate above and below the net asset value. The earnings of a mutual fund are distributed to the holders of its shares. It is hoped that a loss on one holding will be made up by a gain on another. The holders of mutual-fund shares thus gain the advantage of diversification, which might ordinarily be beyond their means. Common mutual funds, which often provide skilled management for security holdings, include stock, bond, balanced, index, and money-market funds. Stock funds mainly invest in common shares, and bond funds in bonds; such funds may specialize in a particular category of stocks or bonds (such as Internet stocks or municipal bonds). A balanced fund might invest in preferred stocks and bonds in addition to common stocks. Index funds invest in a portfolio that mimics a given index, such as the stocks that make up the S&P 500. The forerunner of the modern mutual fund was established in Belgium in 1822, and the use of these closed-end investment companies soon spread to Great Britain and France. They became popular in the United States in the 1920s, but from the 1930s the open-end mutual fund became more popular. Mutual funds experienced a period of tremendous growth after World War II, especially in the 1980s and 90s.

Scott blames himself to what happen to Derek; he thinks it was his fault of why Derek and Ennis fell and that cause for his wound not to heal in time. So, Stiles decided to do something about it and call Lydia and Allison asking for their help. Later on Stiles manages to get Scott out of the bus and to do something about his wound.
Lydia thinks that because Scott blames himself to what happen to Derek, she guess that it maybe psychological and it's all in his head that's why it wouldn't heal. So, they decided to stitch him up for him to think that he's already healing.
With Scott, worrying and the thought that Derek is already dead yet it seems that he'd able to stand and ask for the help of Jennifer.

Rabbi Levi teaches that students of Torah impose their will on the upper (Angels) and lower beings when they are living in purity 34 taking part in the creation, as Rabbi Yehoshua of Saknin teaches that the supreme King of Kings, the Holy One, blessed is He, sat and took counsel with the righteous before creating the world.35 Even in the beginning the righteous were taking an active part in the forming of the creation.
Rabbi Yudan said in the name of Rabbi Meir that the Holy One says to Israel, "Follow My oath and I shall make you like the Heavenly Hosts" 36 This all helps us to understand how Rabbi Yehuda states in the Zohar that the B'nei Elokim (Sons of God; see Genesis 6:2) are the Great Beth Din (Supernal Court).37
Not only in this world does one find a place in the unfolding of Heaven from the Torah; all the more so in the World to Come. We learn from Rabbi Shimon ben Lakish that in the World to Come a porter will not dwell with a Torah scholar. Only like craftsmen dwell together and there are infinite levels of each type of craftsman. 38 As the sages teach in tractate Avot d'Rabbi Nathan, if two men dye a fabric in the same vat, the one who is greater in righteousness gets a deeper color. He even enjoys his food more. 39 This is because, as our sages explain, the Holy Blessed One does not deprive any creature of its reward. Whoever labors with self-sacrifice will get his reward.4o The more one gives to God, sacrificing himself beyond his own nature, the more God will have nature itself favor him-even above the laws of nature, if needed. All is in His control to do as He sees fit. We know, as is taught in tractate Kallah Rabbati, that the Torah that is acquired through forty-eight distinctions crowns its owner with health to the flesh and bones, peace to the heart, life with honor, protection, and the World to Come,41 but the actual benefits with which the Creator rewards His creatures are too diversified to number because of His infinite nature.
In the Midrash, Rabbi Meir teaches us that God gave the Torah to the Elders of Israel, just as the Sanhedrin sits before Him on high. The sages teach also in the Midrash that all who direct their courses forthrightly in His Presence shall be among the men in His council 42 The Torah is the Law of God by which He rules over Heaven and earth. Like the Beth Din below, the one above is ruled from God's Torah. The holders of the Torah, the ones who hold the Tree of Life, are, as Rabbi Meir says, the Sanhedrin above.43 The spiritual forces become subjugated by such a man, as the sages state:
When a man performs one precept the Holy One, blessed is He, gives him an angel to his charge: if he performs many precepts, He gives him half his camp.44
Rabbi Chaninah ben Avohu teaches, concerning man's angels, that God provides each man one thousand angels to his left and ten thousand to his right. He must sustain them, but they do not request that he feed them.45 If one brings divinity into the Earth through Torah and mitzvot, then the angels are nourished, and then, the sages say, the Torah guards those who possess it.

everyones a someone
so many things i want to write about at the moment.. Not much in the mood to organize the past month (awesome)..much less try articulate via typos and unmapped thought patterns how grand things can be(and without a doubt how completely peculiar and 10 sheets to the wind fucked up they can be) i will write only a tad. honestly i promised myself i'd get a sketch pad or blog daily to get the gears running. And surprise! ive no sketch pad in site.. ( BUT......# 2 pencil check!)i'll just post a quickie. a rant. a message. to anyone who cares: please don't say anything remotely awkward or haphazard to me..even if it can somehow can be twistered into some sort of back handed compliment..just don't say it. i don't have the energy to read anyones neuropathways at the time, and i'd rather hear something put on the table, loud and clear. But only if its nice. that's all i can handle. and that's all i really need to hear. so thank you. cuz i'll seriously cry if i hear anything else. and then whoever said it feels bad and then i feel weird for being emotional. and yes admittedly im being over dramatic right now. but that's my right and i'll exercise that shit till its dead..or till i get my spark back. so yeah, just don't think too hard and play it cool. thanks for hearing me out ya fuckies.

Been digging on Utagawa Hiroshige since I saw one of his prints hanging on a friends wall, and considering the amount of Japanese and Chinese poetry I have been reading lately I felt instantly drawn to it. Anyway I hope you all enjoy these as much as I did. The first print is the one I saw at my friends house. The others are ones I have found and liked since.

I am currently working on a two-year Royal Society of Edinburgh Network on 'Relations between Britain and France in World War Two', with Dr Rogelia Pastor-Castro.
The Network
The network will contribute substantially to understanding the wider long-term significance of the relationship forged between the UK and France during the Second World War. It will inform current debates about contemporary international, diplomatic, military and security challenges, offering a source of expertise to interested stakeholders.
The central theme of the network is to explore the tensions, influences and experiences that shaped and defined the relationship between the UK and France during the war. As allies in the First World War and as states with similar democratic traditions, levels of military and economic strength and global interests, the relationship between Britain and France was critical to the survival and future of both countries. The network's distinctiveness lies in its close engagement with officials from the foreign policy community, including serving and past diplomats, the Foreign Office, as well as French and British defence policy-making and military staff.
- To challenge existing historical approaches to the Second World War by engaging in research relevant to contemporary international challenges.
- To promote more effective engagement between historians of Franco-British relations and those involved in diplomatic relations and foreign policy, developing knowledge exchange activities with diplomats and officials from the foreign policy community to better inform policy-making.
- To develop new understandings of the history of Franco-British relations at times of war in light of the 2010 Lancaster House Treaties on defence and security cooperation between the UK and France.
- To promote debate about Franco-British cooperation by exploring how the two states responded to the challenges of reconstruction at the end of the Second World War, including humanitarian relief efforts, refugees, displaced persons, the occupation of defeated countries and rebuilding democratic institutions.
- To connect historians working in the fields of transnational, international, diplomatic, intelligence and military history in order to develop more nuanced understandings and methodologies.
- To explore the wider implications for Scotland of the historical and contemporary challenges of Franco-British military cooperation.
- To develop the next stage in a wider project on Britain and France in War and Peace that includes a major international conference on 'France and the Second World War in Global Perspective, 1919-45' at the University of Strathclyde in July 2015 and a colloquium on 'Britain and France in World War Two' at the British Embassy in Paris in October 2015, hosted by the British Ambassador to France.
Key questions:
- How were Franco-British relations shaped by the experiences of the Second World War?
- In what ways might historians' understanding of diplomatic relations be informed by engaging with serving and past diplomats, and how might officials from the foreign policy community benefit from working with historians?
- How did the experiences of the war shape the cultural dispositions and world views of French and British diplomats?
- In what ways did experiences such as the fall of France in 1940 shape British and French perceptions of each other's capabilities as Cold War allies and fellow NATO member states in the postwar period?
- To what extent were Franco-British relations during the war shaped by their colonial interests?
- How did the experiences of war inform British and French responses to the challenges of postwar European reconstruction and the occupation of defeated countries after 1945?

It is 22 years since I have associated myself with computers and software. So what?
The key point to make is my recent move from "Grid Control" to "Smart Grid" ...
Having worked for past 4 years with Oracle working with computing grid management software, I have moved over to IBM into consulting solutions around the power grids!
It is just few weeks into the new role, and currently focusing on the domestic market. A new role, in a new place with only thing common to my immediate past role is "GRID" but in the both contexts, this same word means completely different!
With a new learning experience everyday, "Grid" is going to keep me active for several more cycles...
Is it??

I'm going to do a "365" - where I take and post at least one picture a day either of me or mostly by me. It's a wonderful way to explore photography and catalogue what happens on a day to day basis. I started a few days late, but I'll just go for it anyway. I'd love any and all comments.

Getting a little bored of City of Heroes, and need something to add variety to EVE Online, so I decided to try out Funcom's new The Secret World.
First impressions created by the account creation and download page are all strongly negative.
First, the "Buy Now" page doesn't appear to work in Internet Explorer. Given market-share numbers, it's surprising to me that they didn't test this, but they obviously didn't.
Second, when you fill out the account creation form (got to it by using Chrome), you have to fill it all out, click "Create Account", and then and only then does it validate any of your data. If your password has a punctuation mark in it other than a hyphen, you get an error, and have to fill out about half of the form again. (I think the allowed piece of punctuation is a hyphen. The error message was far from clear on the point. Poor font-choice being the problem.) If the username you want is already taken, you have to fill out the form again. And so on. No "check availability" on usernames, no "password must be X to Y length, and cannot contain punctuation" on the page before you even begin typing it, nothing. Just keep trying till you get one that works. Filling out about half the form over and over again each time.
Not a big deal, we're not talking a 1040 form here, but definitely a poor user-experience, and a barrier-to-entry no serious business should allow.
So, after six tries, I finally got what they wanted and my account was created. In the spirit of helping them and their future potential customers, I then clicked their "Contact Us" link on their official website, and filled out a detailed e-mail telling them some things they could do to make the experience better. A few minutes after sending the e-mail, from their official "Contact Us" page, I got an auto-responder reply that said they no longer accept e-mails as a means of contacting them, and please go fill out a form on their support website.
The client is downloading now, and I'm worried that I may have just burned fifty bucks for a crap experience. Conan (their other game that I both beta tested and played) was launched with serious bugs and playability issues. I was hoping they had learned from that, but I'm now worried they probably haven't.
These guys aren't serious about making things easy on their customers, aren't serious about their sales process, aren't serious about their software QA, from what I've seen so far. Hopefully the game itself will change my mind. We'll see.

Ann's Story.
I have been a journalist in Ireland for so long now.I worked for over twenty wonderful years with Independent Newspapers, Dublin, Ireland with the Irish Independent and Evening Herald covering every news story under the sun, including crime.
Probably the most exciting time was when I worked and lived in India. Now, that is a country that makes you sit back and think about life.
I have always loved writing and in my school days wanted to be a writer. I think I got diverted in to many happy years in journalism. I now work with the Irish Examiner newspaper,a great newspaper with the old traditional values of accuracy and integrity coupled with top class reporting in a modern age.
The Ballroom Cafe is my first novel and I am now beavering away on the second. I live by the sea in Ireland with my husband and two children.
I love to keep in touch with readers or book clubs.
You can always catch up with me here or get me on email.

I didn't blog last night. I have a hard time getting my blog done on date night and by the time Ben gets home and we put the kids to bed, I'm just ready to sit down, eat our dinner and spend time with my hubby. The biggest damper to the whole evening was our sighting of THREE mice. We saw one come in under our front door during devos. We managed to catch that one fairly quickly. Then Ben and I went to our bedroom and saw one run behind our bookshelves...we put sticky pads on either side and finally caught that one. And before I crawled in bed I checked email and I saw one scurry behind a box of tracts in the office!! That last one we still did not catch. I have NEVER had so many mice in my house. But, it seems to be a season or something. The Sanderlins, missionaries about an hour away from us, emailed us and asked us how we catch mice b/c they have a similar problem. Ben said that there are boys all over town selling homemade sticky pads for "arratas" (roll the "r" when you say that - it is pidgin for rat as I'm sure you already guessed). They are all so tiny and really dumb and if you happen to spot them, fairly easy to catch. Because of their size they can sneak in our house any ol' time. We leave our doors open a lot and there is just no getting around it I guess...but it has never been this bad! I'm thinking we need one more cat.
Well it is late and I am heading to bed. It is pouring rain right now and I'm loving the sound and want to fall asleep to it! :)

Go Kylie!
Kylie's cheer competition was last Saturday--again, I am late w/a post because I really wanted a picture on here with it. Anyway, they placed 5th out of 6th--and we were thrilled! This is their first competition and they were actually competing in the youth league--10 and 11 year olds! So, for a squad that's made up of mostly 5-7 year olds, beating ANYBODY was a thrill! I learned so much at this competition--these girls wear hair extensions, tons of makeup and they come to win! So, I bought Kylie a fake ponytail and the Moms are trying to scrounge up the glitter make-up and star stickers so that our girls stand a chance!

It's all very well living in a modern (ish) house but when they built this house the fashion was for no fire places. Hardy any power sockets either which is a bit surprising as electricity was hardly a new invention back in the early 70's so it must have been obvious electricity would be here to stay. Consequently the rooms in this house have a rather plain box feel about it. It's also rented so whipping out a wall and building in a fireplace isn't something I can or want to do. But winter is knocking at the door and I want to be cosy. Queue cheating in the form of a pretend fireplace. I literally popped into the local DIY store, very kind lad put it in the car and then took home and unpacked it. No fiddling, no putting together just removed cardboard and plug in. I am amazed with the result and it looks like it has been there for the last 40 years. Cosy wintery/Christmassy evenings can now commence. Though there are a few other things needs to make a proper winter/Christmas evening so here is my essential list:
Cosy Room – this can be the lounge or bedroom but no harsh lighting so we switch off the main lights and use side lights and candles. The candles (used responsibly of course) tick several boxes as they give cosy lighting, do give off some heat and if you have scented candles they give off a lovely Christmassy smell. The curtains are drawn, doors shut and huddle down around the new fire.
Soft Blankets – I just can't sit on the sofa without a blanket on my lap. It has to be soft and huge as there is often two cats fighting for my lap and one of the teens sneaking in the side for warmth.
PJ's or as they are known in our house 'comfies' – Basically the softer and more comfortable it is the better. My current favourite are red leopard print fleece trousers and any warm woolly jumper. Not exactly the epitome of sexy. I think perhaps I should put some posh pj's on my Christmas list so if one of the teens has strayed onto here I want these comfy Calvin Klein Flannel PJ's please.
A Winters or Christmas film – How the Aussies do Christmas in the sun is beyond me. As winter lashes it full force outside I want to be watching snowy scenes with the odd fir tree and snowman added in for good measure. I certainly don't want to see skimpy bodies in skimpy bikinis as I hide under thick socks and tights and jumpers.
Snacky Food and Hot Chocolate – If I shouldn't be eating it then its got to be on the list. If I can't have the odd nice thing to eat in the winter months when everything is safely hidden in big jumpers then when can I. Of course the hot chocolate has to have those diddy marshmallows too.
Now that's what is on my list, what's on your list?

Scientists Think They've Figured Out Why Green Tea Helps You Lose Weight
This article is shared with permission from our friends at ZME Science.
Green tea is one of those things that's really healthy for you, but its health benefits have been greatly exaggerated; one of the things which has been consistently reported about green tea is that it helps you lose weight, but scientists didn't know how (or if) this happens. Now, a team from Poland believe they've zeroed in on this mystery: it's all about the starch.
Jaroslaw Walkowiak of Poznan University of Medical Sciences, Poland, found that a single dose of green tea extract made people digest less starch and eliminate more of it. He gave people the equivalent of drinking a few cups of green tea every day after they had breakfast.
"Green tea is known worldwide for its beneficial effects on human health," the researchers write in the journal Scientific Reports. "However, objective data evaluating this influence in humans is scarce."
Indeed, green tea is given credit for many health benefits – it's supposed to help against cancer, but despite suggestive evidence, there is no conclusive evidence that green tea helps to prevent or treat cancer. It's supposed to level glycemic control but again, evidence is inconclusive, and it's supposed to help with losing weight. It's safe to say that green tea is quite controversial, but hopefully, studies like this one will shed some light on what the substance actually does.
"In most subjects (78.6%), the decreased starch digestion and absorption due to GTE was rapid and the aforesaid effect persisted until the last measure."
They continue making a case for using the substance instead of other weight-loss substances.
"Our data suggest that the use of GTE is a viable alternative to pharmaceutical inhibitors of glucoside hydrolase enzymes. This plant extract is widely available, inexpensive, and well tolerated, so it has potential utility for weight control and the treatment of diabetes. Our study supports the concept that pure GTE inhibits starch digestion and absorption. However, the clinical significance of each green tea catechin and the exact mechanism responsible for this action in humans remain to be determined."
The debate around green tea won't end anytime soon, but regarding weight loss, the evidence seems to be piling up: a few cups of green tea per day might actually help you lose weight.
Journal Reference: Klaudia Lochocka, Joanna Bajerska, Aleksandra Glapa, Ewa Fidler-Witon, Jan K. Nowak, Tomasz Szczapa, Philip Grebowiec, Aleksandra Lisowska & Jaroslaw Walkowiak. Green tea extract decreases starch digestion and absorption from a test meal in humans: a randomized, placebo-controlled crossover study. doi:10.1038/srep12015

As many of you may have figured out, I love playing with techniques in my card making and over at JUGS this week they have a technique challenge using a great technique that was featured on my favorite stamping site, StampTV by Gina K her own self. Check out all Gina's fab techniques....just click on any one of them on the right sidebar and discover a fabulous technique world.
Here is the challenge at JUGS:
It's time for another technique challenge brought to you by Just Us Girls. I'm sure many of you are gearing up for Dad's day which is rapidly approaching. Well today's technique might just help you out with that - we'd like for you to try out the Woodgrain technique as demonstrated by the lovely and talented Gina K from GinaK Designs. Here's a link to the video tutorial if you are not familiar with this technique.
This is my for this challenge using Gina's woodgrain technique.
For my card, the woodgrain is made to look like a boardwalk (I hope). Although it was created using Gina's technique I didn't use white ink, I started with white CS (GKD Pure Luxury) and then dragged Distress "Walnut Stain" over my embossing. I then filled in the "cracks" of the boardwalk with my Copic Marker E37 marker. This is a variation on Gina's technique and it worked for me on this card.
The stamps I used are from Gina K Designs newest StampTV Kit "Vintage Chic". Memento ink "Rich Cocoa" and "Lady Bug" were used to stamp the bikes and the sentiment. After stamping the red bike I went over it with a Sukura Clear Gelly pen for a little pop. I created the background using tutorials from Theresa Momber, who is a fabulous GKD DT.
Thanks so much for stopping by,

Fighting Poverty with Passion
If May was a breeze than June was a burn. Boy did the sun make an appearance this month and it wasn't even a full month of summer. There were a lot of hic-ups with the water in systems. One of the towers was blown over and caused a lot of water to evaporate so there were a number of plants that died. The towers that weren't knocked over still loss most of their water too in the same weekend. The plants in the mobile farm wall dried out towards the end of the month because the replenishment tank wasn't turned on. All of that just means there is something new to learn. Even though I have been managing the garden since the fall, each season presents it's unique set of challenges. The summer brings the heat so watering schedule changes and how well the plants thrive. There were a lot of cool weather crops planted in the spring and winter which was fine, but they were allowed to be carried over in to the summer which isn't so fine. They need a lot of water because their heat tolerance isn't as high as summer crop and bugs are loving the out of season option. Having a diverse set of plants help but I know for future reference that I will be wiser as to which leafy greens I allow to grow in the summer. The sweet potatoes, onions, basil, chervil, fennel, tomatoes and peppers are doing really well.
Also there has been a lot of work now towards focusing on educational material. Since we are nearing the end of my term of service, I want to make sure capacity building gets the attention it deserves. After having meetings with key staff, it seems like I have a clear direction.

10.10.12 Advance Review [The Massive #5]
By Justin Giampaoli
The Massive #5 (Dark Horse): If I had to sum up what this issue is about in a single word? Commitment. It's really about these two female characters and their commitment to both the Ninth Wave cause and their own acute sense of survival. If you read the issue a little closer, you can even pick up on some subtle references. We see Ryan as a younger student at the University of Vermont, writer Brian Wood's home state, and then Ryan confesses to Mary that she's from Minneapolis, just like frequent Brian Wood collaborator Ryan Kelly. As a long-time fan who pays attention to details, I just eat stuff like that right up. I've seen some comparisons of this issue online to Greg Rucka and Steve Lieber's Whiteout, but aside from the bleak Antarctic setting and both being terrific in their own right, they really don't have much else in common. Mary and Ryan go on a mission to retrieve some ice core samples, which means a source of clean water unfettered by radiological fallout and whatever else it would have otherwise been exposed to on the surface. Clean water, now one of the most valuable substances on the planet. Some unexpected visitors pop up and a terrifying bit of isolated action ensues. Wood also continues an attack on our politically gridlocked and jingoistic American view of the world, stating through Mary that America is essentially just a 200 year old experiment, a "good concept" as she says. Being American doesn't really mean shit at the end of the world, in fact it's probably a liability.

Previously, I have posted the similar entry
On May 21, top K-Pop groups will be performing for free in Northern California for MBC Korean Music Wave in Google.
The complete lineup includes DBSK, Super Junior, Girl's Generation, Wonder Girls, Kara, BEAST,MBLAQ, SISTAR and f(x). The venue will in particular will be the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View California, near Google's global headquarters, and holds a capacity of 22,500.
The tickets will be made available to the public starting on Saturday May 12 on their websitehttp://www.powerhouselive.net/KoreanMusicWaveInGoogle.aspx.
Doors will open at 5:00 PM and will close ay 6:50 PM, 10 minutes before the starting time. With Google and YouTube sponsoring the event, we can almost expect the concert to streamed live or posted online.
MBC previously held their Korean Music Wave Concert in Bankok last month. SM Entertainment will also be holding their SM Town LIVE 2012 in Anaheim the on May 20.
There will be no reserved seating and saving seats for others. For more details, here is their official announcement of the concert.
Fans in Northern California are lucky to get this opportunity to see all these popular groups. For those trying to attend the event, good luck getting tickets. The site already crashed when the announcement was first made. It will likely be difficult to access once the tickets are released.
Also, expect it to get cold at night. The amphitheater is outdoors, and as its name implies, its next to a shoreline.

Watching the very first FIFA 18 Gameplay trailer at E3 2017
FIFA 18 is always to be one of many biggest-selling games during the year of 2017 because the franchise of EA Sports normally most likely to be the main charts while arriving. In addition, it is now been corroborated that the game is usually to release all by way of the planet on 29 September on the diverse consoles such as PlayStation 4, Xbox One particular, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 3, Computer and Xbox 360. There are big fans of FIFA. Certainly, it indicates that folks prefer to have some developments this year soon after slighter or primly graphical alterations. Visiting the nearest and specialist on-line gaming property, futcoin.Com helps gamers avail fut coins in the most affordable cost together with the newest news.
Most pieces of data about FIFA 18 has knocked at us during the earlier couple of weeks even though EA Sports is gaining within the mood for E3 at the massive gaming expo of Summer season. It can be disclosing that the cover star would be to be none other than Cristiano Ronaldo. It is not Brazilian genius of previous. FIFA 18 incorporates a brand new chapter, The Journey. It can be characterizing Alex Hunter and there is the introduction of a brand new gameplay trailer at E3. There's also the introduction of Nintendo Switch edition that would persuade some console and back for the game. However, the news has tempered that Frostbite game engine is just not around the big platforms. Gamer can have buy fifa 18 coins from futcoin.Com within the most inexpensive price.
overhauling referee logic of FIFA 18
If a devotee of football has an appreciation towards the real-world soccer referees, even they have not carried out effectively over the preferred group in the devotee; it would have to be managing with their digital equivalent in FIFA 17. The great news is the fact that the update of FIFA 18 would be to their underlying logic, players have to go hopefully by way of the fewer broken controllers as an outcome. This can be highly dubious choice and calls. An interview with Inventive Director of EA, Matthew Prior took spot. Per Kicker was taking the interview. The problem seems to be stemmed inside the application of Frostbite Engine in FIFA 17.

The players develop into frustrated though a seeming non-issue of their group is becoming carded. There seems a question as AI update is only used to the PlayStation four, Computer, and Xbox 1 editions of FIFA 18. The Frostbite gaming engine was implemented specially for single-player campaign mode, The Journey. This isn't to become the present for the PlayStation three, Xbox 360, and Nintendo Switch editions with the most present title.
There would be applying a downgraded engine although applying only updated stars for the players other than the graphical and logical overhauling planned for newer-generation platforms. In the event the logical trouble of referee is depended upon the Frostbite Engine, it may make sense that is not to implement AI updates toward the older-platform edition with the game.

I am very excited that the Bible in 90 Days program is starting up again. If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late to join! The reading starts today but there are also two grace days built into the schedule.
Reading the Bible through so quickly is challenging but very rewarding. Sometimes it's difficult to read the Bible for 45 minutes to an hour each day, especially during some of the "hard" books like Leviticus and Numbers. But reading so quickly gave me a new perspective on how God has worked throughout history. It shows how God has had His hand guiding His people. It's really amazing to see that the God who created and taught Adam is the same God who protected His people during the 40 years of wandering. That is also the same God who guided David and the judges during Israel's rocky history.
I'm not reading the entire Bible during this 90 day period but I am going to be doing some intense Bible study. I have a list of questions from my last read through and I want to try to answer some of those during this 90 day challenge. I'm also looking forward to the opportunity of praying for and encouraging some of the participants.
I cannot recommend this challenge enough. If you have never read through the entire Bible, please prayerfully consider joining. It will be a worthwhile experience!

Lake Luzerne, New York
On our way up to Lake George this year we stopped by our old standy by with good food, and sundaes that look like little dreams. As a group of eight we had many dishes that were just so good. It is hard to find reliable diner food today. The vegetarian rueben called the Roxanne with homemade saurkraut was fabulous served with a side of fresh snap peas sauteed in garlic and olive oil. One of my travel mates had the homemade raisin bread french toast with a side of home fries. The service was fabulous, and the desert put us over the top. Try a pistachio nut and chocolate sundae with thick hot fudge and fresh whipped cream. Oh and of course a cherry on top! http://www.papasicecream.com/index2.htm

Before we start, I'm going to complain about how I'll be in San Diego for a wedding this weekend without access to a computer so I can't write anything. While we're at it, here's a pretty big myth going around, so let me clarify. Soccer isn't taking off in America. Is it just me, or is everybody doing the same thing we did four years ago?
Another thing that annoys me: Literally everything about Derek Jeter. Ok, go ahead, talk about his "class" and "professionalism" and how he "plays the game the right way" I'll concede those points. He seems like a genuinely nice guy. Here's what isn't: An all-star. Feel free to try to convince me otherwise. When someone tries to tell me he should be an all-star it usually goes something like this.
Person I'm talking to: Derek Jeter should be an all-star!
Me: No he shouldn't.
PITT: But it's his last season!
Me: And your point is....?
PITT: That is my point.
Me: So you think just because he's had a great career he should make the team, ignoring the fact that his slash line is currently .271/.325/.329.
PITT (eyes watering up): Yes, but he has such dignity, and class. He's.... The Captain.
Ok, I made up the last line, but all the others are true. While we're on Jeter, let's look at probably the two most iconic plays in his career.
The first one I'm talking about is the dive. Of course, the only still picture you ever see is this. But does that one image really tell the whole story? Not if you actually look at the play. The picture you always see is him going into the seats, implying that he dove in to catch the ball. And if everyone makes such a big deal out of it, he must have done something spectacular, right? Nope. Don't get me wrong, it's a really good play, or as Dick Bremer would call it, "a fine running grab" And if he had been paying attention to it we would have forgotten about it later. But instead, he takes three full steps and one weird mini step, and trips over the wall. Slightly different than how Yankees fans paint it.
How about the flip? Now there's a great play, from him cutting the ball off all the way until....wait. Giambi should have been safe. Look at the 40 second mark of this clip and look at when Posada tags him. He gets him on the knee after he's crossed the plate. Why don't we think of this as a bad call and instead an amazing play?
PITT: Because he's... The Captain.
Me: Hey, where'd you come from?
PITT: I'm one of the people the Steinbrenners hired to talk up Jeter to prove to society that not all Yankees are jerks.
Me: That explains a lot.
