missemilysmom commented in my last post that she would see me on Friday when she gets back from her conference. And I just put $100.00 on my Visa. I shouldn't be charging anything right now and missemilysmom is not going to see me on Friday. Nor is anyone else near and dear to my heart.
The only one who will see me is my old friend, Dr. DeSade, DMD (not his real name, dontcha know...). Bright and early Friday morning I will be clenching the arms of the chair of doom whilst the good doctor continues his painful and pricey correction of The Sheep's choppers. Dr. DeSade is not near and dear to my heart.
And thus we come to the charging. It all hit me today as I was heading home and running my usual Thursday school errands a day early. I panicked. I needed to drop some cash...and fast. It's the only form of indulgence I have left. I pulled the truck into a hard right and headed to my local Kohl's to rummage through the clearance racks and try to bring some solace and peace to my shattered soul. In my panic, I somehow managed to purchase thongs and belts. I know. I'm confused by this, too. There is little logic associated with these purchases. I'm not logical right now. Sue me.
Speaking of blood from a stone, Dr. D's office left a message for me today claiming that they don't have a correct address through which to bill The Sheep. Could I call to correct this little matter right away? Why certainly. It's at the top of my "to do" list. Right after huddling in the corner in the fetal position and trying to find something with which I might conceivable wear a belt. (I sort of don't really have a waist...)
At the heart of this panic attack is a rather horrid realization. This whole dental process has been a nightmare. One which friends and coworkers have patiently tolerated throughout the gibbering and moaning to which they have been subjected. I have written enough blog entries to warrant spam from various and sundry dental sites. I have laid all the blame firmly and squarely at the feet of my dentist. But here's the thing:
Deep, deep down where the floss gets stuck between my too-close-together teeth I know the truth. This mess is really all my own fault.
There. It's said. For a variety of reasons, some good, some not, I put off getting the old ivories checked out as regularly as I should. While I admit, Dr. DeSade and I are never going to be mani/pedi buddies, he's probably just doing his job and is, in fact, not actually the antichrist. The vote is still out on whether he was hugged enough as a child, but that doesn't necessarily make him evil incarnate.
I'm sure he's just some dude who mows his lawn and signs his kids report cards like everyone else. It is highly unlikely that he devours the souls of small children for breakfast and strategizes ways to make my appointments as painful as humanly possible.
It is not his fault that I am one of the small majority for whom traditional pain blockers are less effective. He probably has poor hearing in the ear that was closest to me when I mentioned that in the first appointment. Since the root canal from hell, he has actually tried to inject enough of the sweet stuff into my hapless jaws. Give the man some credit. It's not his fault. It's mine. And it is highly unlikely that any dentist could be doing this level of work without causing a wee bit of discomfort. He makes it easy to blame him. That's probably a good thing, because hating a super sweet dentist who agrees with all my opinions and thoughts on world matters would probably give me a case of the guilts that Freud himself couldn't work through.
I still think he owes me the hundred bucks, though. I only spent it out of dental stress. Who do I call about that?

Logan spit up in his crib this morning so I decided to give him a bath. When his bath was done and he was all wrapped in his towel I put him in the rocking chair so I could change his sheets. As he was sitting there he looked so cute I had to take a picture and I kept thinking I could use these for his 6 month picture in his baby book. Yes, my little guy is half a year old now. It's hard to believe all of that time has gone by and it makes me think that in the blink of an eye we'll be taking the Christmas tree down and getting ready to celebrate his 1st birthday in January. Here are some of our favorite things about our Little Champ:
- His smile - not showing it here but he usually has a huge smile on his face.
- His big blue eyes...the left one has a little brown spot in it so I think it's cool he's a little unique that way.
- How good he sleeps.
- His laugh
- How content he always seems to be. He seems to epsecially enjoy watching his brothers play.
- The way he chews on his toes. Babies are so flexible.
- His loving personality. He can be with anyone and warm up to them immediately.
- The way he knows all of us - he gets a look on his face when he sees me or his dad or brothers that tell us he knows us and he's happy to be part of our family.

Can't help you out with the scary stuff. There's not much I'm scared of except maybe a snake pit. I used to be deathly scared of bees but that fear just disappeared. I have no idea why. I embrace ghosts. Think I have been visited several times. Course, I might feel differently if they had been scary ghosts. I got lots of stories I could tell you about them.

Stepping back for awhile was a great idea. You need to unwind and just live in the house for awhile.

You will so enjoy your craft room once its done. I keep organizing and reorganizing my crafting goodies and its still not working as efficiently as I would like. Lack of space is one factor.

Scared of something - I HATE spiders and I'm severely claustrophobic but that's about it.

It has zapped so much of your energy, finances, and artistic talent for so long, I think this is a welcome reprieve. And having your roll top desk back in order to write each day is a wonderful way to break the old habits and take up new ones.

I LOVE that cup. I wish we had that company where I live.

Valerie is beyond generous, isn't she? She is such a sweetie and packs her envelopes fill of wonderful and thoughtful gifts. You are one lucky gal. And yes, that is two pages of handmade paper, although the screens have degraded so badly, I won't be able to make more until I make new frames.

Thanks for sharing your gifts, your craft room, your new hobby, your roll top desk, and your Insomnia coffee mug with us for T this soon-to-be Tuesday.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5094918988417537594.post-54727987808048768442017-07-31T18:35:21.261-05:002017-07-31T18:35:21.261-05:00Great that you are taking time out from working on...Great that you are taking time out from working on the house and doing your own creating

Dan Lungren
I just sent a few bucks to the Lungren for Congress campaign -- You can do it online. I met Dan almost 20 years ago, and he's always been a gentleman, the kind of person you can be proud to have represent you. He's running against Rico Oller, who I think is nasty, and Mary Ose, who's probably nice, but I've never met her.
Dan once said that his favorite movie was Braveheart, which was mentioned in the Scotsman today as one of the best speeches in movie history.
Wallace: Sons of Scotland, I am William Wallace.
Young soldier: William Wallace is 7 feet tall.
Wallace: Yes, I've heard. Kills men by the hundreds, and if he were here he'd consume the English with fireballs from his eyes and bolts of lightning from his arse. I am William Wallace. And I see a whole army of my countrymen here in defiance of tyranny. You have come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What would you do without freedom? Will you fight?
Veteran soldier: Fight? Against that? No, we will run; and we will live.
Wallace: Aye, fight and you may die. Run and you'll live -- at least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom.
Wallace and Soldiers: Alba gu bra! (Scotland forever!)
Why not send a few bucks to Dan? It's easy and you'll be glad you did.

Watch Last Week's Sermon
Evan R Smith 2018-07-15T16:04:09+00:00
Become Known
It was by the ministry of the disciples that Jesus' name began to be spread across the land of Israel, even reaching King Herod. Even now, Jesus becomes known, for good or bad, through the actions of Christians today. This is an enormous responsibility and pressure. In this message, Pastor Evan discusses how a follower of Christ can live out this responsibility in a way that conveys grace and not legalism.

Arrrrrr, matey!
Hi Kevin!
Here's my Halloween costume, I'm a pirate! I'm going to hand out candy later on when it gets dark. I'll sit out on the porch with Grandpa Rock and Bre and we'll wait for the kids to come around. Do you think my costume will scare the kids?
Do you know why pirates wear a patch over one eye? It's so they can see better in the dark! What they do is put the patch over their eye before they board another ship. That way, one eye gets used to the dark (behind the patch your eye doesn't get exposed to the daylight).
Then, once they board a ship looking for gold, they have to go down inside the ship into the cargo hold. It's dark in there. The eye that isn't covered can't see going inside from the bright daylight to the dark. So that's when they take the patch off. The eye that was under the patch is accustomed to the dark so they can see immediately in the dark cabins beneath the ship's deck.
You can try this yourself in the house, or, if you have a garage that doesn't have a lot of windows. Even a closet will work! Get something to make a patch, even a scarf or a hat you can pull down over one eye will work. Wear the scarf or hat over one eye for 30 minutes, make sure it is very bright where you are, outside or during the daytime near a window. (Make sure Mom doesn't need to go anywhere while you're experimenting.) When the 30 minutes are up, open the closet or the garage door and step inside, close the door behind you. Can you see anything with the eye that didn't have the patch? Probably not. Now, take the patch off and you should be able to see the shapes of things in the closet.
In case you were wondering, there's an official 'Talk like a pirate' day. It's September 19th, every year. Maybe you can remember that for next year. Arrrr.
Here are some pirate jokes:
What do pirates drive when they get on land?
A carrrrrr.
Why don't pirates go to the moon?
It's too farrrrrr.
What do you get when you cross a pirate with a zucchini?
A squashbuckler.
What's a pirate's favorite cereal?
Cap'n Crunch.
Some folks think that Blackbeard the pirate buried his treasure on the Isle of Shoals (off the coast of Maine & New Hampshire). If he did, it's still there today.
When your Grandpa Rock was in the Navy, he learned how to 'repel boarders' which is a fancy way of saying he learned how to keep pirates off the Navy ships. All of the sailors had to learn how to do this to keep the ships safe.
Happy Halloween!

I would be very interested in comparing the results of the two methods, but I won't be able to pursue it myself.

{shannon + shannon + surprise}
Last night my friend Megan came over and we watched The Bachelor: The Women Tell All. We had comments for everything and I totally enjoyed recapping on all the awkwardly funny events thus far. I so wanted Chris to ask Shannon, So, how was your french kiss with your dog? Because if you remember {and honestly, who can not?!} she did say she was going to go home, brush her teeth and give her dog a french kiss.
Now that I've cleared the throw up out of my mouth I can continue.
After The Bach was over Megan and I talked for hours. It was soooo nice to have girl time :)
I tell you the truth when I say I don't even remember what time I went to bed. No clue whatsoever. And then, just like yesterday morning, I woke up around 8 a.m., opened the curtains for my sweet, precious plants and went back to bed!!! Who does that? I know I got my green "I love plants" thumb from my mom, but I know I didn't get the "go back to bed" thing from her. I feel like I'm in college again, skipping class, I mean taking a break from class ;)
Well whatever. I have a semi-interview tomorrow and so I needed my rest. Please pray it goes well and whatever God's plan is for me + employment it will be shown to me LOUD and CLEAR. I like loud and clear messages.
I am pretty excited about this next Gussy story. I ordered some special tags for my Etsy stuff and I heard they are in the mail... Hopefully I'll be able to share the surprise with you all this weekend :) I also designed and ordered some business cards. I was at the dentist today and the hygienist was basically asking if I had a business card {to match my business-like excitement over my shop!}. If you are looking for HIGH quality prints in MEGA FAST time, head on over to OvernightPrints.com. Zack and I ordered our save-the-date wedding postcards from them. And now I'm ordering business cards from them. You can have them design your work or you can upload something you've designed. See, fun for both sides of the design spectrum ;)
While I was at the dentist I felt a bit like Shannon from The Bach. Every time I saw her on TV she had mega globs of lip gloss on. Ev-rey-time. Well, I'm {not-so-excited} to announce that I actually had the hygienist apply Vaseline on my little mouth because all that moving around with the tools and such was really starting to crack my mouth. I remember is asking, You're not video taping this, are you? {Because I looked ridiculous.} In this day of age, you never know when you're getting taped and/or recorded of some sort. I just had to ask.
She said no, by the way.
And... another dentist story:
I have my first cavity ever. I didn't even make 24-years of age :(
I can't talk about this right now...

Are you kidding? By the time I was 24 I lost a tooth (in the back, obviously) because it was too rotten to be saved, and THREE crowns with root canals. The only teeth that never had cavities are my front ones.
Cry me a river, Gussy.
Anywho, maybe I should start being obsessed with my teeth like Shannon, and my mouth will be in better shape. Or maybe I should start taking care of my teeth the way you take care of your plants. Whatev.
Yey for business cards! Now you're REALLY legit.
- February 25, 2009 at 8:35 AM
- ZWhit said...
LoL. I had four cavities in my baby teeth, lost those at age 8 (totally made up that number), have had I think 3 put into my bigboy teeth, and I just had four more put in, all-at-once, on Tuesday.
Also, I had all my zombiestomp business cards made on Overnight prints as well. Don't forget about your husband, now, Gussy ;)

"MythBusters" Recap & Review - "Alaska Special"
"Alaska Special"

"Alaska Special"
Original Air Date: April 23, 2008
Stacy – TwoCents Reviewer
MythBusters is back, at least for this week, with an all new Alaska special, continuing on with the Discovery Channel's Alaska Week! They've got three new myths to debunk, all with, as you might have guessed, and Alaskan flair involving a dog, a moose and a couple of sleep deprived guinea pigs. Oh, and don't forget the yeti.
First up, the dynamite dog. Adam and Jamie, after introducing us to the beautiful, but cold, Alaskan frontier, explain the myth about the fisherman who decided to blast through the ice using dynamite and of course forgets about his dog, a retriever, who dutifully brings back the dynamite, hides under the brand new SUV and sinks the whole thing to the bottom of the lake. Okay, it's not a myth, it's more of an antidote. And it's kind of funny, if you take away the fact that the dog obviously does not survive this tale.
So, our guys do some preliminary tests. First the average out how far a stick of dynamite can be thrown (about 100 feet) and then they time how long it takes for a black lab to retrieve a thrown object (16 seconds) and, given the 20 second fuse on an average stick of dynamite, it's all looking plausible, until, of course, they try to blow up and SUV. As we learned earlier, the ice has to be over a foot thick to support the weight of the vehicle. And, the dynamite would have definitely killed the pooch, it barely dented the ice and caused only minor damage to the SUV. Officially, it is busted. However, they can't leave it there. Adam and Jamie came to sink an SUV into an ice covered lake, and that is what they'll do. Throwing out a nice Caddyshack reference (I knew I loved Adam for a reason), "gopher" holes are dug into the ice and explosives are run. It is a huge blast, and so cold that, before they can retrieve what is left of the SUV, the ice has frozen over forcing them to blow it up, again, to clean up their mess.
Outcome: Busted! The ice would be too thick for a single stick of dynamite to break through.
Next up, moose mayhem. Our three California natives, Grant, Kari and Tory, are tasked with finding out whether or not it is safer to speed up or attempt to stop, when, as we learn often happens in Alaska, a moose steps out in front of your speeding car. They do some research in Alaska, but have to return to M7 for the practical tests. They build their moose out of rubber and cables and, I admit, I'm distracted a bit because Tory seems so completely hyper. He's either really excited about crashing cars or he's had too much coffee. Has he always been like this? I don't think so, but maybe. Anyway, they head to E-Tech testing to run the test. And with several spectacular shots (Kari was right, the slo-mo is amazing!) the first hit their moose at an average speed of 45 mph, then breaking 30 feet from the moose, followed by accelerating 30 feet from the moose. When all is said and done, there is no way you should do anything other than try and avoid hitting a moose with your car. The cars are so smashed up, it's almost unreal. And, the faster you go, the more damage you cause.
Outcome: Busted! So, so very busted.
Finally, we come to what may be my favorite experiment ever: Cabin Fever! Adam and Jamie agree to spend 48 hours alone in complete isolation in two separate cabins to see if cabin fever is indeed a real thing. Kari's job is to monitor them via camera from her own cabin. While both men think that the other will crack first (and my money was on Adam), Kari thinks she's got it worse since, not only is she also in isolation, but she has to watch them being bored non-stop. It's like MythBusters does Lost – who is really guinea pig here?
So it begins. Kari is watching for signs of irritability, excessive sleep, angry eyes, etc., basically waiting to see which one goes all Jack Torrance first. And while Adam starts disassembling hangers to make toys for himself, Jamie (no joke) starts to redraft the Constitution. Both men, showing signs of extreme forgetfulness, fail to do their swap tests (for stress) correctly, forcing me to conclude that they really are trying to drive Kari crazy as she can only look on shake her head in exasperation at them. In the end, and despite a rather amusing Yeti joke, neither of them seems seriously affected, and Kari actually calls the experiment early. Adam is relieved, thrilled to hear another human voice, and Jamie claims to have just been getting into it.
Outcome: Plausible!
So ends another episode of MythBusters. What was your favorite myth of the night? Was there anything you expected to see and didn't? Who had it worse in 'Cabin Fever', Kari, Adam or Jamie? Tell us what you think!

Attending the "Idol" taping last night made me feel like a first-hand witness to the beginning of the end.
Not so much on "Idol" itself, which is having ratings woes but still dominates the competition and isn't going anywhere anytime soon, but on Paula Abdul, who hit a new low — even for Paula standards.
Sure, the format was changed when the kids did five performances in a row before hearing from the judges. And, yeah, it was somewhat difficult for the judges to compile their thoughts on all the songs in a compressed time period.
But when Paula started commenting on Jason's second song, before he had even sung it, well, it just sent the in-studio audience into a kind of "what just happened" moment. When the show went to a commercial break right after, Paula scurried out of her seat, head down and left the stage without saying a word.
She, obviously, knew she had screwed up big time, but the episode didn't come off as an easy and forgettable laugh or just another "Hey, isn't that Paula wacky" scenario. This seemed far more serious; at least if felt that way at the time.
While there's little question Paula's antics can make for a ratings bump — in the way rubberneckers like to slow down on freeway to get a look at an accident — doesn't producer Nigel Lythgoe owe it to viewers, and especially the contestants, to use the most qualified judges as possible if the show is to have any credibility at all?
Simon, as good and honest as he is, can carry the load on his shoulders for only so long.

Hello everyone!
Welcome to a brand new Community Collab, where we raise ideas and interact with each other for the benefit of Club Penguin. Today's topic is about Card-Jitsu.
Card-Jitsu is a game that is original to Club Penguin. There are two skills – for you to hone – to be able to succeed in Card-Jitsu. First you need strategy. Strategy is an advantage in Card-Jitsu because the rest is luck. To be able to have a higher chance in succeeding, strategy is your mate. You need to know your elements and their strengths/weaknesses. If someone chooses snow, you choose fire. That is basic strategy. However, if you're on your way to become a ninja, you need to think as if you were in the other penguin's shoes. For example you need to take in consideration that your opponent may be tricking you and leading you to a trap. By doing this they can pretend to pick their last element required to win and the other penguin's instinct would be to go against that element to stop them winning. Keep thinking strategy and you can master Card-Jitsu in no time!
That was a basic guide to Card-Jitsu. As you can tell, the game sounds different and awesome! Club Penguin are lucky to own such a great game. Though when are they going to spotlight it?
Over the years, Card-Jitsu has become increasingly popular due to the expansion of different elemental games, making it vast and more interesting. Near the early stages of Card-Jitsu, Club Penguin released CJ Trading Cards to help promote it. Since the game itself uses cards to present a particular element, Club Penguin thought it may be a good idea to do this in real life. I remember the days when I used to collect these and trade them with my friends. I still have them in tins! They still sell these cards however they aren't popular anymore and this is because there hasn't been an update to them. Card-Jitsu has been updated online since there is now water, snow and fire to master but the classic cards still remain.
I love the CJ Trading Cards but it would be nice to see more ways to play. Maybe Club Penguin will be working towards this since the game is planning on being revamped soon. Also they are trying to bring it on the app as well!
Overall what are your thoughts on Card-Jitsu? Do you think is has been forgotten in reality? Comment your thoughts on this post and I would appreciate your reactions to Card-Jitsu. It would help as well since all of this collaboration will be noticed and maybe forwarded on to the team. Polo Field makes often visits and forwards some ideas so please feel free to say something.
Thanks for reading!

Barbara Baylis is this year's recipient of the Mary K. Ousley Champion of Quality Award. She will be officially presented with the award at AHCA/NCAL's Annual Convention & Expo on October 10 in Tampa, Florida.
Each year, AHCA presents the Mary K. Ousley Champion of Quality Award to either an individual or organization that has strongly exemplified efforts to enhance quality performance in long term care as well as advocating for quality approaches. Furthermore, honorees have to also exhibit leadership in the implementation of quality improvement initiatives. Previously known as the Friend of Quality Award, the award was renamed in honor of Mary K. Ousley, a licensed nursing home administrator and nurse who has dedicated her life to quality improvement programs in long term care.
Barbara has been a leader in the industry for championing quality care ever since 1992 when she introduced Continuous Quality Improvement to 200 nursing centers at Living Centers of America. Her areas of expertise include clinical practice, clinical and nursing administration policy and procedure, quality improvement and regulatory compliance. In addition to being Senior Vice President at Clinical and Residential Services at Kindred Healthcare, she currently serves as a member of the Quality Award Board of Overseers as well as the CMS Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement Technical Advisory Panel.
"Thanks to Barbara's hard work and commitment to quality, our nursing and rehabilitation centers have shown improved patient outcomes, patient satisfaction, and have established a reputation for quality care," said Benjamin A. Breier, Kindred's President and Chief Operating Office, in a press release.
"I enjoy the work that I do," said Barbara. "I'm a nurse, and I believe in making it better for the patient. It is a great honor to receive this award."
Watch Barbara speak at Medline's 2010 LTC Quality Summit here.

The deadline for placing an advanced catering order is 4 business days before your event by 1 pm. If you miss this deadline, you may order off the limited selection day of event menu inside your suite.
Once you purchase a suite for an event in Mercedes-Benz Stadium, your planning is not quite finished. Don't forget to order catering to be served in your suite to complete the luxurious experience you crave. The experts at SuiteHop can assist you in crafting your dream event with gourmet dining and premium beverage options that are brought to you and your guests throughout your event.
The Levy Restaurant chefs are experts in in-suite catering and have created an extensive selection of choices when it comes to dining in one of the private suites in Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Since you are in Atlanta, you will love the local, southern fare available. No matter what you and your guests crave, you can design your personal event menu ahead of time. Suite catering is such a luxury because you just arrive and are taken care of without ever leaving the suite.
Make the best choices for your event with the help of SuiteHop. We are all about making sure everyone can live the "suite" life and catering is a big part of that. So check out the Catering Guide for Mercedes-Benz Stadium and make your selections. You can use our pre-filled catering order form to get started right now.
|Ordering catering is a complex and confusing process. To help extend your catering budget, we recommend selecting family style items (such as pulled pork) instead of individual portions (steak). Most catering menus, including those at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, require a minimum order of 6 portions. You do not have to order portion for every guest you are expecting to attend. Desserts often come with multiple items per person, and a full 20 person order may mean you have three times as many cookies as you need. There will always be options available for reorder when you are in the suite, so do not worry about not having enough food!
|Recommended Menu: Feeds 20 guests
This menu is based off the 2017 Mercedes Benz Stadium Catering offerings. Items are subject to availability.
Don't be left in the dark about the complexities of a catering order and end up with a surprisingly expensive bill at the end of the evening. We've put together a list of our top Suite Catering Tips for Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Important note: There is no refund for food or drinks that is not consumed. We recommend ordering conservatively and paying attention to what your guests are consuming before reordering.
The deadline for placing an advanced catering order is 4 business days before your event by 1 pm. If you miss this deadline, you may order off the limited selection day of event menu inside your suite.
Having a concierge in the suite can make your event so much less stressful. SuiteHop's team of trained concierge's can ensure that your event flows smoothly and provide a day of logistics resource so you can focus 100% of your attention on your guests and the event. Your concierge will help keep track of alcohol and food, serve guests, and clean up the suite throughout the event. Make sure you enjoy your night as much as your guests and take advantage of our concierge services. Request a Concierge

Mood is holding steady
My mood has been holding steady at a mildly depressed state. I can feel all this tension below the surface though. Building and building until something triggers an eruption. Wish I knew how to let it out a little at a time instead of having it all come out in one raging explosion. I wonder how "normal" people handle their emotions. How do they identify and work through them in a healthy way.
Ms. S asked me during our last therapy appointment if I was worried about digging deep inside myself and addressing issues from my past. Letting out the emotions I'd never allowed myself to feel. Told her I was scared shitless to do it and that I wasn't sure I'd be able to.
I don't know if it is a good idea to dig into the past. While I know that what I suffered through as a child helped make me the person I am today, I don't see how reliving the abuse by talking about it is helpful. I know my promiscuity was a result of the sexual abuse. I know the physical abuse made me afraid to trust anyone. I know the verbal abuse made me feel I was worthless and didn't deserve to live. I just don't know how to take what I know and make things better for myself.

Media Center News
October 2015
From School Library Journal
Gr 5–7—A mystery set at a sumptuous estate, featuring a courageous female protagonist entangled in a hair-raising adventure. It is 1899 and 12-year-old Serafina lives with her Pa in the basement of the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC. Pa had come to Asheville years ago to help with construction and stayed on as a fixer of all things mechanical in the 250-room mansion. For reasons unknown to Serafina, they must keep their nightly lodgings in the basement a secret as well as the existence of Serafina herself. She has developed catlike skills in exploring the vast Biltmore estate and enjoys sneaking through heating vents and other small spaces in order to eavesdrop on staff and inhabitants. Her quiet existence is shattered when she witnesses a strange man dragging a tearful young girl down into the bowels of the vast home. The man is wearing a large black cloak and reassures the young girl that everything is okay. Suddenly, the captive struggles to get away from the man and his cloak appears to come alive. It wraps itself around the terrified child as she calls out for help. Serafina is frozen with fear and before she can react, the girl has vanished. Serafina escapes, thanks to her agility, and discovers the next day that a visitor of the Vanderbilts by the name of Clara has disappeared during the night. More children disappear and it becomes increasingly obvious that Serafina's new best friend, Braeden, is the man in the black cloak's newest target. The story drips with suspense, wrapping readers into the narrative just as easily as the man in the black cloak binds his young victims. Serafina's friendship with Braeden is heartfelt and believable. The ending is tied up too neatly, but that's a minor quibble; most horror and mystery fans will enjoy this book. VERDICT A creepy, suspenseful read that's not quite as dark as the works of Neil Gaiman or Adam Gidwitz.—Julie Shatterly, W. A. Bess Elementary School, Gastonia, NC (review refers to the galley of Serafina and the Black Cloak by Robert Beatty)

This past week I got to see one of my favorite people- Mary! She left the comforts of America and her family to explore love, adventure and knowledge and lives in Switzerland. She has learned French and works for a major international corporation as their Online Communication Manager. Oh, and she isn't even 30 yet! We met her for dinner with our friends Judy and Andrea. We all worked together a few years ago.
L to R: Judy, Mary, Andrea and I
Mary wanted to see us, but also to eat Gourdough's. We have all eaten there a handful of times and posted about it on Facebook and she had to be a part of it. And, she did! They girls ordered the blue balls and this is how blue those bad boys were. I can only imagine what that is doing to their innerds. Yikes!
We had a super fun night of real conversation and I loved it. We are secretly planning a trip to see her next year. Oh how much I would love that!

A Proclamation
Yesterday, I was driving in the truck with Isaiah, Laila, and Sam. From the back, where he sits, Sam proclaimed to me, "Mom, I like my brother now." This is a huge deal. He has always been drawn to Laila, but he and Isaiah have had their moments. It was touch and go for a while there, but I am glad to announce that Sam has decided he likes having a little brother. For that I am thankful.

Hope you enjoy this recipe. I don't eat broccoli. Jean says it's good for me.
It's slowly getting warmer here. Hope it is warmer for Easter.

This is a recipe that my husband will like. We love broccoli, and I think it would be great with my ham dinner on Easter Sunday. We don't use Cheez Whitz, but I would use cheddar cheese instead.

my fellows would love this. I only eat broccoli raw in salad. I think my grown son would inhale this (grin) straight from the oven. I have never used cheez whiz, but think I need to try this for my fellows! thank you Jean!

So, September 20, 2008 was my 6 year anniversary at Prosper, Inc. WOW. I started out as some girl doing data entry and filing in the accounting department, then worked in compliance for about a year before doing what I do now (which my job has so many different aspects that I wouldn't know what to call myself anymore!) Here are some reasons why I am still working at Prosper:
- The pay (haha, ok that one is a huge joke and I'm laughing out loud right now!)
- Free lap top
- Can work from home
- I've been through four name changes of this company (EPMG, PMG, Private Marketing Group, Prosper, Inc)
- Flexibility
- I know exactly what I'm doing and love that I can give my input from years past
- I've worked here long enough to have plenty of paid time off
- The health benefits work for me
- I can joke about how some of our meetings are like church meetings and everyone gets it
- I love going to the corporate office and talking to friends over there who have been at Prosper almost as long as I have
- The fact that I'm always given a window no matter where we move to
- I hate finding and interviewing for new jobs (in fact, I didn't even interview for this one)
- I have my own name plaque, which is currently being held up on my cubicle with clips
- I wear jeans and a sweatshirt to work four out of the five working days
- I can choose when I want to do hardcore work or if I'm tired I can do mindless work
- I can joke around with the people I work with and enjoy them
- Talking to the IT guys about guns and making fun of the accounting girls about Twilight
- One of the owners of the company knows my name, the other one refers to me as "buddy" (yeah, Candra, me too!)
- I hate traffic, and therefore leave slightly early from work so that I'm not stuck in it
So, that's why I'm still at Prosper. Many friends have come and gone in the 6 years...totally miss figuring out how to hide Jodie's CD in Charlotte's side of the office (although Charlotte topped me when she broke into my car and made it so the CD would turn on when I started the car), lunches to Chilis with Karlie, river walks with my BPFF Candra, finding random stuff on my desk from Jessica, and hearing all the compliance gossip from Shauna!
Here's to another who knows how long of Prosper, Inc!

Startup Burn Rates:
A Game of High Stakes Poker
Yesterday, over on Quibb, I commented on an article about the alarm sounded by Bill Gurley in a recent Wall Street Journal article, then echoed by Fred Wilson and Marc Andreessen. They warn how the increase in startup burn rates could lead to spectacular flameouts. I've decided to join the conversation and share my view on what I speculate is happening.
As a pure spectator, entrepreneur and investor, I've witnessed changes in early stage venture capital and the startup liquidity cycle. These changes have been widely reported by Mark Suster from Upfront Ventures and other notable VCs. To summarize, investing has changed because startups have changed.
Here is how:
1 — What once took $3 million and 20 engineers to build, now cost $30k and only requires two good engineers to build. With 100x cost reduction comes 100x more startups. Most startups don't fail because they weren't successful at building a product, they fail because they aren't successful at gaining traction and growing users and revenues.
2 — When companies are successful at #1, money becomes a commodity. When you can show that customers in a large or rapidly growing market are adopting your product, and your customer lifetime value (CLV) exceeds what it costs you to acquire that customer, you can almost always raise capital to fund growth.
3 — For startups, the market values growth, not profitability. As a result, startups that are successful at #2 choose to grow at unreasonable rate, as opposed to growing at a reasonable rate that keeps them borderline profitable. Since the market values growth, startups are in an arms race to gain marketshare. Consequently, they're driven to raise money on a near continual basis to invest in customer acquisition to "own their market."
The cycle goes like this: raise a round; invest in growth; show growth data to VCs; then let them compete to fund your next round - which leads to a much higher valuation. Rinse and repeat! When you're successful, your startup is on its way to the unicorn club.
With the above mentioned changes in entrepreneurship, venture investing has changed accordingly:
1 — Early stage VCs that make initial investments in companies at Series A or Series B typically reserve 50% of their investment funds for follow on rounds. Historically this has been enough to maintain a decent pro-rata percentage ownership to limit dilution as portfolio companies raise later-stage rounds to accelerate growth. Many venture funds are now finding that their reserves aren't nearly enough to maintain pro-rata in the wake of multi hundred million dollar late stage rounds. Some early stage VCs have raised additional funds reserved specifically this purpose.
2 — Due to the changes in startup growth described above; a significantly larger growth opportunity due to a growing market of mobile consumers with credit cards on file; and the propensity for startups to remain private longer, the funding landscape has changed accordingly. Many large institutional investors that historically invested only in public equities have now started investing, pre-IPO, in unicorns. Uber's recent $1.2 billion raise at a $17 billion pre-money is the premier example of this — but not the only example.
3 — If I were an early stage VC trying to maintain pro-rata as my portfolio companies doubled down on fundraising due to the arms race for growth fueled by a new crop of eager late stage investors, I'd be very uncomfortable as well. Growth for most companies typically requires more headcount. In addition to payroll growth, increased headcount almost always requires more office space — leading to significant long-term lease commitments and other fixed expenses. When and if this new crop of late stage investors retreat back to public equities, the late stage funding bubble will pop. Massive layoffs and in some cases insolvency will ensue, resulting in spectacular flameouts.
For early stage investors like Bill Gurley, Fred Wilson and Marc Andreessen who have lived through the dot-com down cycles of the past, follow-on investing to maintain pro-rata in the current environment must feel like a game of high stakes poker.

In the summer I will be going to London for a week to do a course in Fashion Design at world famous Central Saint Martins! While I want to do journalism as a career, I still love fashion design and just getting a taste of life there will be just as useful and oh so exciting! Frankly I'm quite happy enough just being able to go to the same university as Stella McCartney, Hussein Chalayan and Matthew Williamson (just to name a few!) went to.
I will also be going to the industry day of graduate shows on the Saturday. I'll be sat with all the journalists I aspire to work with, with my little black book making notes for Parade... aahh!
I will be posting a diary entry every night for the whole week telling you what I've got up to during the day. Plus there'll be plenty about the shows and who I think are the new designers to watch out for!
Hopefully I'll have plenty of time for shopping too so no doubt I'll have tons of outfits to photograph and write about for here as well!
In the meantime watch this space!

Embrace of the Serpent
Tracking two parallel odysseys through the Amazon, this historical epic offers an ethno-botanical adventure, mysticism, and a heart-rending depiction of an indigenous culture ravaged by colonialism.
Inspired by interviews with Mayan people, Jayro Bustamante's beautiful debut film is a moving drama that shows a world where nature is preeminent and rituals daily life. With an indigenous cast and the power of a classic fable, Ixcanul tells the moving story of a Mayan family living in the shadow of a volcano in the Guatemalan highlands.
The Pearl Button
Combining metaphysical speculation with an intimate approach this documentary explores the human connection to water through the indigenous peoples of Chilean Patagonia.
The Second Mother
An excitingly fresh take on some classic themes and ideas, The Second Mother centers around Val, a hard-working live-in housekeeper in modern day Sao Paulo.

Just a few observations and rants about this crazy planet we all share.

Christmas: Crucified by do - gooders
Now correct me if I am wrong, but shouldn't Christmas cards portray Christmas greetings? Often I am confronted with "Season's Greetings" on a card. So am I meant to be having a happy winter then? It seems that the PC brigade are at it again, in their efforts not to upset ANYBODY unless of course you are a white, English law abiding citizen. I truly believe that we are now an ethnic minority within this country, therefore why are we not entitled to all the benefits offered to all other ethnic minorities?
I gave up enjoying Christmas years ago. Ask most kids of what they think Christmas is all about and they will scream at you, "PRESENTS" and not just two or three either. Doing our weekly shop this morning was a pain. Got there nice and early (I thought) about 8.30 but already the shop was filling up with Christmas shoppers pushing trollies with mounds of food of which most will get ditched. And there is still two weeks to go.
The stomach churning adds depicting a CD with some little angels singing Christmas carols for only £10.99 make me want to vomit. No correct that. Projectile vomit.
I am going to have to stop now, because I am winding myself up to a full blown rant and I don't think people are ready for that. Maybe after fucking Christmas, eh?
Bah bloody humbug.

calm down, krip. but then, have you read about that swimming pool in Croydon imposing the women-on-weekend-only rule recently? so that Muslim men can have the entire pool to themselves? just because "Islam dictates its followers not to expose any part of their body".
yeah, but there's always the sea for them to go swim innit? that's what muslims over here have done - they go to the beach to have fun not imposing their beliefs on the majority. but then being Malay and peace loving, they just don't want to stir the hornet's nest.

I hear there is an opening for a replacement Santa Claus at that big store in Gillingham -"Poundstretcher" - the other guy was a dope-smoking paedophile. I am putting your name forward as I think your last post demonstrated that you have all the qualities required to make a kindly Santa. May I humbly advise lining your lap with cling-film as children's urination can often lead to painful rashes. Have a nice day!

Self-servicing kiosks at fast food restaurants are the newest trend with more companies jumping on board. A word to the wise: If you want an exorbitant amount of money to flip a burger, you can easily be replaced by an inanimate object. McDonald's was the first to implement the change; now a competitor is following suit.
Wendy's announced that they will be adding over 1,000 kiosks throughout the United States in their stores this year. The news came during an investors meeting Friday, in which investors were informed that the kiosks would be filling around 16 percent of stores.
Kiosks were already offered in various franchise stores last year and were a successful endeavor for the company. "There is a huge amount of pull from (franchisees) in order to get them," David Trimm, Wendy's chief information officer, said.
With the success they've seen using the kiosks so far, Trimm can see this becoming a new way of doing business for the company. "With the demand, we are seeing. … we can absolutely see our way to having 1,000 or more restaurants live with kiosks by the end of the year."
Trimm added that he sees this as a win-win for the company; they save money on labor cost and ordering is more efficient for customers.
Three kiosks put into a location is an estimated $15,000, a price that Trimm estimates the company can earn back within two years with the money saved from labor costs.
McDoanlds and Wendys are ahead of the curve when it comes to the future of fast food restaurants. "They are looking to improve labor cost, and this is a good way to do it," Darren Tristano, the vice president of a food service and research company said. "They are enhancing the customer's experience, younger people like to use the kiosks."
Kiosks don't necessarily mean that human workers will not be needed or that workers will have their hours cut. Instead, they will be able to shift labor to other areas of the restaurant.
With kiosks being used to place orders, more employees can be in the back cooking during the peak hours of business. Other companies will soon follow suit. If they don't, they can expect to spend more overpaying employees demanding $15 an hour.

No Return For The Skilbecks?
An e-mail this evening expressing disappointment that Dolly and Matt Skilbeck will not be returning to Emmerdale for Jack's funeral.
Chloe writes:
It was lovely to see Frederick Pyne and Jean Rogers with Frazer Hines and Sheila Mercier in the 5000th episode celebration programme. I loved watching them doing the scene from the 80s episode, with Matt, Dolly, Annie and Joe all sat round the farm table!
I know Joe can't return, but I thought it would have been very natural for Matt and Dolly to have been there. I'm really disappointed. Is there any chance that they may still appear?
It doesn't seem likely, Chloe. If I hear anything different, I'll let you know.

I recall Matt and Dolly watching the News At Ten and chatting before turning in for the night, Dolly making butter, helping Annie Sugden and working at the play school, Matt working on the fields, delivering lambs and acting peacemaker between Jack and Joe Sugden...ReplyDelete
And then there was dear little Sam!
The Skilbecks were a lovely family. I really don't think they would fit in as the show is nowadays.

How did Annie Sugden Brearly get on with Seth, I know he was a friend of Grandad Sam? What was the Sugden's house in the plane crash because the inside looked very much like today's Annie's Cottage? And did Jack and Peggy have make some kind of peace before she died, I know she died of something along the lines of a brain haemorrhage and what exactly was she doing when she died, because we don't know much about Peggy anymore.ReplyDelete
Sorry, one more question, is there any plans about a second volume of Emmerdale Farm (carrying on from the last one) they do have all the episodes in the archive and if they release so many crossroads and corrie i'm sure they will do it with Emmerdale Farm.

Bryan Higgins: There are rumours that are being reintroduced in the show sometime in late 2009 after a 20 year absence. Well it's certainly possible with the persuasive talents of the current producer - she's tempted back Sheila Mercier for 3 episodes in February, and ITV haven't denied it, so don't lose hope!ReplyDelete
My gut reaction even with actors of Jean & Freddie's calibre is don't go back - Emmerdale has changed a great deal over the years like life itself, but they're so good I think they would instinctively adapt to the modern day.
Anonymous: I'm sorry, I'm not sure what Peggy was doing when she died. There is a small amount of material about her on my 1972-1979 Emmerdale blog.ReplyDelete
And, sorry again, but I don't know of any plans for further DVD releases.
Annie was fond of Seth - although she lectured him sternly and called him a "great goon" after he was thrown out by his wife in 1983!
The 1990s Sugdens' house you speak of was Hawthorn Cottage, home to Matt and Peggy (briefly) in 1973.

It's a miracle!
I got three official documents from the ward office that I needed for my visa renewal and my tax return in under thirty minutes in a smooth, informative, efficient manner and I leave the office without my usual ward rage.
It might be because I've set the bar pretty damn low and today doesn't erase the trauma and distrust from the past, but I now have a bit more faith in humanity.
And now I shall walk along the river, enjoy this glorious weather, and visit the stationery store that I found out is right next to my home station.
