It's been an incredibly pleasant term, despite a harried week here or there, so we'll be prayerful that our final week of Term is lovely & calm too despite being a short week.
This week we had a lot of reading happening around our home & at one point I simply could not read another word aloud my throat was so incredibly sore! Maybe it was a cold attempting to latch on, all I know is it brought a quick end to our day.
We should wrap up this lovely poetry book next term at some point! We had some tongue twisters inside this week which caused a bit of a stir. One child disagreed about their appearance in our poetry book while the other didn't really care as long as I'd read them again as fast as I possibly could. We're in Matthew 10 with our 90 Day Devotional. Despite it missing from the photo, we wrapped up Genesis & moved into Exodus this week with the boys reading from the OT.
William Bradford & Planning were in our Christian Character Traits for Kids this week. I didn't look for a match-up in Portraits Of Integrity this week, & I rather missed having that addition. This was an interesting Character Trait to look at because I have one who's a planner {to some minor degree} & one who flies by the seat of his pants.
Forward progress in grammar this week, the boys are still enjoying their grammar programme, & I have to say so am I. I love that it's simple but to the point & that after we go over the expectations on the page they set about the work on their own. I bring up the page they are doing on my computer incase anyone needs help with something. Generally, though, they don't need help.
I went to grab the next book to read with Jayde for science & discovered it wasn't on the shelf. Whoops! We decided we'd order it in time to use next term & in the mean time, as the book was about elements, I pulled one off our shelf. We've really enjoyed this lovely book, all though it's had a few quips here & there about evolution. The graphics are alluring & the rest of the information is straight forward. I pulled out the magnet Periodic Table & as we read about the elements we put them in order on the board!
Morgan & I are still making our way through this book. Our objective is to finish this book prior to term break. We may have to read a chapter or two on the coming weekend in order to accomplish that goal though as we missed a day this week due to that crazy wild sore throat I had!
Morgan continued forward with his one step outlines via Writing With Skill, I was really hoping to find this as an audio book via Learning Ally; at this time, though, it's not. For now I read the lesson to him & he goes off & uses Dragon to complete the work. The notes & plans he makes are jotted on blue paper so he can copy it over without any issue.
Both boys continued with their geography. It's a slow & steady progress for them. Jayden prefers the days when he's only got one state to do vs the days when he has 3, but when he has more then one it generally makes sense based on the way they are linked together on the map.
Jayde & I finished The Adventurous Life Of Myles Standish. Such a lovely read! We really enjoyed adding that book in & hearing about the Pilgrims from another perspective. We also added in Life In A Longhouse Village this past week & read that whole book as well. Jayden's favourite Native Americans are still the Pueblos with the Aztec coming in a close second. He was so excited when we were able to see some Hopi artefacts on tv this very same week. We're crossed the halfway point with The Story Book Of The USA Book 1 which was a bit of a surprise considering we are only in our first term, but we do have the second volume to accomplish in the year as well.
We'd read, a while back, about Joan's stand against the English, in Our Island Story. This week we read about it in SOTW & Kingfisher. Knowing it was coming up I wanted to expaned on it a little more, but our library was lacking. I ended up purchasing both of the books above which we read this week. We read You Wouldn't Want... first as it takes more of a light approach in regards to depth, & then we read the second book. It was interesting to hear her tale told from the variety of perspectives, & we were astounded to learn that the trial she went under can still be read! As in, the notes that were taken {every word spoken just like a court clerk now} are how the author of the second book was able to gather the information for her book.
Morgan wrapped up week 27 in Bookshark 6 this week. That puts him through Chapter 27 in SOTW, which was lovely & exciting for us considering how long we feel we've been at it. We've added in a lot of extras to this study so it's taken a while to get us here! We still have a few books in there to finish up as well as the remainder of SOTW Vol. 2, all of which we'll finish up next term, or so goes the plan!
Morgan finally tested out of Lesson 17 in his math book. Hoorah! He's ready for the Unit Test this week prior to our upcoming break. His lessons after that should be reasonably downhill for him in regards to finishing the book, all though his eyes can play up on him if he has to work with too many digits without enough aids to help him out.
I divided up a lot of what was left of Lesson 19 for Jayden in the week having him do fronts or backs of pages, odds or evens in regards to problems. I'm planning to have him start back to math in our second week of Term Break just with a couple of problems a day to be sure he stays fresh as it took him a while to build up this confidence!
We repeated the spelling lesson that managed to get chopped up over the past 2 weeks. I just felt it was best to repeat it due to the lack of retention which hadn't happened in any other lesson. The boys were a bit surprised by the repeat of words, & when one mentioned something about it I pointed out he should have no issue getting all his words correct then.
We had an outing at a museum up the coast from us, but I ran off without my phone or a camera & opted to keep going once I realised my mistake. Poor Mr S was distressed all day that I didn't answer a single one of his messages & was hitting panic mode when we got home 6 hours later & reported we were all safe & sound. The exhibit we saw is headed to other areas around Australia before hitting Canada & the USA. While we didn't dislike it, we were disappointed it how it was set up compared to how it was portrayed on the website. Basically it was an interactive town/railroad display. The kids enjoyed themselves & certainly didn't complain about the opportunity to play for a couple of hours in the park with friends.
No science lab this week {again} as Morgan's book doesn't have experiments with it & neither did Jayden's stand in book.

Anne Bradstreet and her time/Chapter II
THOUGH the long engagement which Mr. Ruskin demands as a necessity in lessening some of the present complications of the marriage question may not have been the fortune of Simon and Anne Bradstreet, it is certain that few couples have ever had better opportunity for real knowledge of one another's peculiarities and habits of thought. Circumstances placed them under the same roof for years before marriage, and it would have been impossible to preserve any illusions, while every weakness as well as every virtue had fullest opportunity for disclosure. There is no hint of other suitors, nor detail of the wooing, but the portrait of Governor Bradstreet, still to be seen in the Senate Chamber of the Massachusetts State House, shows a face that even in middle life, the time at which the portrait was painted, held an ardor, that at twenty-five must have made him irresistible. It is the head of Cavalier rather than Roundhead—the full though delicately curved lips and every line in the noble face showing an eager, passionate, pleasure-loving temperament. But the broad, benignant forehead, the clear, dark eyes, the firm, well-cut nose, hold strength as well as sweetness, and prepare one for the reputation which the old Colonial records give him. The high breeding, the atmosphere of the whole figure, comes from a marvellously well-balanced nature, as well as from birth and training. There is a sense of the keenest life and vigor, both mental and physical, and despite the Puritan garb, does not hide the man of whom his wife might have written with Mrs. Hutchinson: "To sum up, therefore, all that can be said of his outward frame and disposition, we must truly conclude that it was a very handsome and well-furnished lodging prepared for the reception of that prince who, in the administration of all excellent virtues, reigned there a while, till he was called back to the palace of the universal emperor."
Simon Bradstreet's father, "born of a wealthy family in Suffolk, was one of the first fellows of Emanuel College, and highly esteemed by persons distinguished for learning." In 1603 he was minister at Horbling in Lincolnshire, but was never anything but a nonconformist to the Church of England. Here in 1603 Simon Bradstreet was born, and until fourteen years old was educated in the grammar school of that place, till the death of his father made some change necessary. John Cotton was the mutual friend of both Dudley and the elder Bradstreet, and Dudley's interest in the son may have arisen from this fact. However this may be, he was taken at fifteen into the Earl of Lincoln's household, and trained to the duties of a steward by Dudley himself. Anne being then a child of nine years old, and probably looking up to him with the devotion that was shared by her older brother, then eleven and always the friend and ally of the future governor.
His capacity was so marked that Dr. Preston, another family friend and a noted Nonconformist, interested himself in his further education, and succeeded in entering him at Emanuel College, Cambridge, in the position of governor to the young Lord Rich, son of the Earl of Warwick. For some reason the young nobleman failed to come to college and Bradstreet's time was devoted to a brother of the Earl of Lincoln, who evidently shared the love of idleness and dissipation that had marked his grandfather's career. It was all pleasant and all eminently unprofitable, Bradstreet wrote in later years, but he accomplished sufficient study to secure his bachelor's degree in 1620. Four years later, while holding the position of steward to the Earl of Lincoln, given him by Dudley on the temporary removal to Boston, that of Master of Arts was bestowed upon him, making it plain that his love of study had continued. With the recall of Dudley, he became steward to the countess of Warwick, which position he held at the time of his marriage in 1628.
It was in this year that Anne, just before her marriage recorded, when the affliction had passed: "About 16, the Lord layde his hand sore upon me and smott me with the small-pox." It is curious that the woman whose life in many points most resembles her own—Mrs. Lucy Hutchinson—should have had precisely the same experience, writing of herself in the "Memoirs of Colonel Hutchinson": "That day that the friends on both sides met to conclude the marriage, she fell sick of the small-pox, which was in many ways a great trial upon him. First, her life was in almost desperate hazard, and then the disease, for the present, made her the most deformed person that could be seen, for a great while after she recovered; yet he was nothing troubled at it, but married her as soon as she was able to quit the chamber, when the priest and all that saw her were affrighted to look on her; but God recompensed his justice and constancy by restoring her, though she was longer than ordinary before she recovered to be as well as before."
Whether disease or treatment held the greater terror, it would be hard to say. Modern medical science has devised many alleviations, and often restores a patient without spot or blemish. But to have lived at all in that day evidenced extraordinary vitality. Cleanliness was unknown, water being looked upon as deadly poison whether taken internally or applied externally. Covered with blankets, every window tightly sealed, and the moaning cry for water answered by a little hot ale or tincture of bitter herbs, nature often gave up the useless struggle and released the tortured and delirious wretch. The means of cure left the constitution irretrievably weakened if not hopelessly ruined, and the approach of the disease was looked upon with affright and regarded usually as a special visitation of the wrath of God.
That Anne Dudley so viewed it is evident from the passage in her diary, already quoted; that the Lord "smott" her, was unquestioned, and she cast about in her girlish mind for the shadow of the sin that had brought such judgment, making solemn resolutions, not only against any further indulgence in "Pride and Vanity," but all other offences, deciding that self-abnegation was the only course, and possibly even beginning her convalescence with a feeling that love itself should be put aside, and all her heart be "sett upon God." But Simon Bradstreet waited, like Colonel Hutchinson, only till "she was fit to leave her chamber," and whether "affrighted" or not, the marriage was consummated early in 1628.
Of heavier, stouter frame than Colonel Hutchinson, and of a far more vigorous constitution, the two men had much in common. The forces that moulded and influenced the one, were equally potent with the other. The best that the time had to give entered into both, and though Hutchinson's name and life are better known, it is rather because of the beauty and power with which his story was told, by a wife who worshipped him, than because of actually greater desert. But the first rush of free thought ennobled many men who in the old chains would have lived lives with nothing in them worth noting, and names full of meaning are on every page of the story of the time.
We have seen how the whole ideal of daily life had altered, as the Puritan element gained ground, and the influence affected the thought and life—even the speech of their opponents. A writer on English literature remarks: "In one sense, the reign of James is the most religious part of our history; for religion was then fashionable. The forms of state, the king's speeches, the debates in parliament and the current literature, were filled with quotations from Scripture and quaint allusions to sacred things."
Even the soldier studied divinity, and Colonel Hutchinson, after his "fourteen months various exercise of his mind, in the pursuit of his love, being now at rest in the enjoyment of his wife," thought it the most natural thing in the world to make "an entrance upon the study of school divinity, wherein his father was the most eminent scholar of any gentleman in England and had a most choice library. . . . Having therefore gotten into the house with him an excellent scholar in that kind of learning, he for two years made it the whole employment of his time."
Much of such learning Simon Bradstreet had taken in unconsciously in the constant discussions about his father's table, as well as in the university alive to every slightest change in doctrine, where freer but fully as interested talk went on. Puritanism had as yet acquired little of the bitterness and rigor born of persecution, but meant simply emancipated thought, seeking something better than it had known, but still claiming all the good the world held for it. Milton is the ideal Puritan of the time, and something of the influences that surrounded his youth were in the home of every well-born Puritan. Even much farther down in the social scale, a portrait remains of a London house mother, which may stand as that of many, whose sons and daughters passed over at last to the new world, hopeless of any quiet or peace in the old. It is a turner in Eastcheap, Nehemiah Wallington, who writes of his mother: "She was very loving and obedient to her parents, loving and kind to her husband, very tender-hearted to her children, loving all that were godly, much misliking the wicked and profane. She was a pattern of sobriety unto many, very seldom was seen abroad except at church; when others recreated themselves at holidays and other times, she would take her needle-work and say—'here is my recreation' . . . God had given her a very pregnant wit and an excellent memory. She was very ripe and perfect in all stories of the Bible, likewise in all the stories of the Martyrs, and could readily turn to them; she was also perfect and well seen in the English Chronicles, and in the descents of the King of England. She lived in holy wedlock with her husband twenty years, wanting but four days."
If the influence of the new thought was so potent with a class who in the Tudor days had made up the London mob, and whose signature, on the rare occasions when anybody wanted it, had been a mark, the middle class, including professional men, felt it infinitely more. In the early training with many, as with Milton's father, music was a passion; there was nothing illiberal or narrow. In Milton's case he writes: "My father destined me while yet a little boy to the study of humane letters; which I seized with such eagerness that from the twelth year of my age I scarcely ever went from my lessons to my bed before midnight." "To the Greek, Latin and Hebrew learned at school the scrivener advised him to add Italian and French. Nor were English letters neglected. Spencer gave the earliest turn to the boy's poetic genius. In spite of the war between playwright and precisian, a Puritan youth could still in Milton's days avow his love of the stage, 'if Jonson's learned sock be on, or sweetest Shakspeare Fancy's child, warble his native wood-notes wild and gather from the masques and antique pageantry', of the court revels, hints for his own 'Comus' and 'Arcades'."
Simon Bradstreet's year at Cambridge probably held much the same experience, and if a narrowing faith in time taught him to write it down as "all unprofitable," there is no doubt that it helped to broaden his nature and establish the Catholic-mindedness which in later years, in spite of every influence against it, was one of his distinguishing characteristics. In the meantime he was a delightful companion. Cut off by his principles from much that passed as enjoyment, hating the unbridled licentiousness, the "ornate beastliness," of the Stuart reign, he like others of the same faith took refuge in intellectual pleasures. Like Colonel Hutchinson—and this portrait, contrary in all points to the preconceived idea, is a typical one—he "could dance admirably well, but neither in youth nor riper years made any practice of it; he had skill in fencing such as became a gentleman; he had great love to music and often diverted himself with a viol, on which he played masterly; he had an exact ear and judgment in other music; he shot excellently in bows and guns, and much used them for his exercise; he had great judgment in paintings, graving, sculpture, and all liberal arts, and had many curiosities of value in all kinds; he took great delight in perspective glasses, and, for his other rarities was not so much affected with the antiquity as the merit of the work; he took much pleasure in improvement of grounds, in planting groves and walks and fruit trees, in opening springs, and making fish-ponds."
All these tastes were almost indispensable to anyone filling the position which, alike, Dudley and Bradstreet held. "Steward" then, had a very different meaning from any associated with it now, and great estates were left practically in the hands of managers while the owners busied themselves in other directions, relying upon the good taste as well as the financial ability of the men who, as a rule, proved more than faithful to the trust.
The first two years of marriage were passed in England, and held the last genuine social life and intellectual development that Anne Bradstreet was to enjoy. The love of learning was not lost in the transition from one country to another, but it took on more and more a theological bias, and embodied itself chiefly in sermons and interminable doctrinal discussions. Even before the marriage, Dudley had decided to join the New England colony, but Simon Bradstreet hesitated and lingered, till forced to a decision by the increasing shadow of persecution. Had they remained in England, there is little doubt that Anne Bradstreet's mind, sensitively alive as it was to every fine influence, would have developed in a far different direction to that which it finally took. The directness and joyous life of the Elizabethan literature had given place to the euphuistic school, and as the Puritans put aside one author after another as "not making for godliness," the strained style, the quirks and conceits of men like Quarles and Withers came to represent the highest type of literary effort. But no author had the influence of Du Bartas, whose poems had been translated by Joshua Sylvester in 1605, under the title of "Du Bartas. His Duuine Weekes and Workes, with a Complete Collection of all the other most delightfull Workes, Translated and Written by yt famous Philomusus, Josvah Sylvester, Gent." He in turn was an imitator; a French euphuist, whose work simply followed and patterned after that of Ronsard, whose popularity for a time had convinced France that no other poet had been before him, and that no successor could approach his power. He chose to study classical models rather than nature or life, and his most formidable poem, merely a beginning of some five or six thousand verses on "the race of French kings, descended from Francion, a child of Hector and a Trojan by birth," ended prematurely on the death of Charles IX, but served as a model for a generation of imitators.
What spell lay in the involved and interminable pages the modern reader cannot decide, but Milton studied them, and affirmed that they had aided in forming his style, and Spenser wrote of him—
"And after thee, (du Bellay) 'gins
Bartas hie to raise
His Heavenly muse, th' Almighty to adore.
Live, happy spirits! th' honor of your name,
And fill the world with never dying fame."
Dryden, too, shared the infatuation, and in the Epistle Dedicatory to "The Spanish Friar," wrote: "I remember when I was a boy, I thought inimitable Spenser a mean poet, in comparison of Sylvester's 'Dubartas, and was wrapt into an ecstasy when I read these lines:
'"Now when the winter's keener breath began
To crystallize the Baltic ocean;
To glaze the lakes, to bridle up the floods,
And periwig with snow (wool) the bald-pate woods.'
"I am much deceived if this be not abominable fustian." Van Lann stigmatizes this poem, Le Semaine ou Creation du Monde, as "the marriage-register of science and verse, written by a Gascon Moses, who, to the minuteness of a Walt. Whitman and the unction of a parish-clerk, added an occasional dignity superior to anything attained by the abortive epic of his master."
But he had some subtle, and to the nineteenth century mind, inscrutable charm. Poets studied him and Anne Bradstreet did more than study; she absorbed them, till such originality as had been her portion perished under the weight. In later years she disclaimed the charge of having copied from him, but the infection was too thorough not to remain, and the assimilation had been so perfect that imitation was unconscious. There was everything in the life of Du Bartas to appeal to her imagination as well as her sympathy, and with her minute knowledge of history she relished his detail while reverencing his character. For Du Bartas was a French Puritan, holding the same religious views as Henry IV, before he became King of France, his strong religious nature appealing to every English reader. Born in 1544, of noble parents, and brought up, according to Michaud in the Biographic Universelle, to the profession of arms, he distinguished himself as a soldier and negotiater. Attached to the person of Prince Henry "in the capacity of gentleman in ordinary of his bed-chamber, he was successfully employed by him on missions to Denmark, Scotland and England. He was at the battle of Ivry and celebrated in song the victory which he had helped to gain. He died four months after, in July, 1559, at the age of forty-six, in consequence of some wounds which had been badly healed. He passed all the leisure which his duties left him, at his château du Bartas. It was there that he composed his long and numerous poems. . . . His principal poem, La Semaine, went through more than thirty editions in less than six years, and was translated into Latin, Italian, Spanish, English, German and Dutch."
The influence was an unfortunate one. Nature had already been set aside so thoroughly that, as with Dryden, Spenser was regarded as common-place and even puerile, and the record of real life or thought as no part of a poet's office. Such power of observation as Anne Bradstreet had was discouraged in the beginning, and though later it asserted itself in slight degree, her early work shows no trace of originality, being, as we are soon to see, merely a rhymed paraphrase of her reading. That she wrote verse, not included in any edition of her poems, we know, the earliest date assigned there being 1632, but the time she had dreaded was at hand, and books and study went the way of many other pleasant things.
With the dread must have mingled a certain thrill of hope and expectation common to every thinking man and woman who in that seventeenth century looked to the New World to redress every wrong of the Old, and who watched every movement of the little band that in Holland waited, for light on the doubtful and beclouded future.
The story of the first settlement needs no repetition here. The years in Holland had knit the little band together more strongly and lastingly than proved to be the case with any future company, their minister, John Robinson, having infused his own intense and self-abnegating nature into every one. That the Virginian colonies had suffered incredibly they knew, but it had no power to dissuade them. "We are well weaned," John Robinson wrote, "from the delicate milk of the mother-country, and inured to the difficulties of a strange land; the people are industrious and frugal. We are knit together as a body in a most sacred covenant of the Lord, of the violation whereof we make great conscience, and by virtue whereof, we hold ourselves strictly tied to all care of each other's good and of the whole. It is not with us, as with men whom small things can discourage."
By 1629, the worst difficulties had been overcome, and the struggle for mere existence had ended. The little colony, made up chiefly of hard working men, had passed through every phase of suffering. Sickness and famine had done their worst. The settlers were thoroughly acclimated, and as they prospered, more and more the eyes of Puritan England turned toward them, with a longing for the same freedom. Laud's hand was heavy and growing heavier, and as privileges lessened, and one after another found fine, or pillory, or banishment awaiting every expression of thought, the eagerness grew and intensified. As yet there had been no separation from the Mother Church. It had simply "divided into two great parties, the Prelatical or Hierarchical, headed by Laud, and the Nonconformist or Puritan." For the latter, Calvin had become the sole authority, and even as early as 1603, their preachers made up more than a ninth of the clergy. The points of disagreement increased steadily, each fresh severity from the Prelatical party being met by determined resistance, and a stubborn resolution never to yield an inch of the new convictions. No clearer presentation of the case is to be found anywhere than in Mason's life of Milton, the poet's life being absolutely contemporaneous with the cause, and his own experience came to be that of hundreds. From his childhood he had been set apart for the ministry, but he was as he wrote in later life, with a bitterness he never lost, "Church-outed by the prelates." "Coming to some maturity of years, and perceiving what tyranny had invaded in the Church, that he who would take orders, must subscribe slave, and take an oath withal, which, unless he took with a conscience that would retch, he must either straight perjure or split his faith, I thought it better to prefer a blameless silence before the sacred office of speaking, bought and begun with servitude and forswearing."
Each year of the increasing complications found a larger body enrolled on his side, and with 1629, Simon Bradstreet resigned any hope of life in England, and cast in his fortunes once for all with the projected colony. In dissolving his third Parliament Charles had granted the charter for the Massachusetts Colony, and seizing upon this as a "Providential call," the Puritans at once circulated "conclusions" among gentry and traders, and full descriptions of Massachusetts. Already many capitalists deemed encouragement of the emigration an excellent speculation, but the prospective emigrants had no mind to be ruled by a commercial company at home, and at last, after many deliberations, the old company was dissolved; the officers resigned and their places were filled by persons who proposed to emigrate.
Two days before this change twelve gentlemen met at Cambridge and "pledged themselves to each other to embark for New England with their families for a permanent residence."
"Provided always, that, before the last of September next, the whole government, together with the patent for the said plantation, be first legally transferred." Dudley's name was one of the twelve, and at another meeting in October he was also present, with John Winthrop, who was shortly chosen governor. A day or two later, Dudley was made assistant governor, and in the early spring of 1630, but a few days before sailing Simon Bradstreet was elected to the same office in the place of Mr. Thomas Goffe. One place of trust after another was filled by the two men, whose history henceforward is that of New England. Dudley being very shortly made "undertaker," that is, to be one of those having "the sole managinge of the joynt stock, wth all things incydent theronto, for the space of 7 years."
Even for the sternest enthusiasts, the departure seemed a banishment, though Winthrop spoke the mind of all when he wrote, "I shall call that my country where I may most glorify God and enjoy the presence of my dearest friends."
For him the dearest were left behind for a time, and in all literature there is no tenderer letter than that in which his last words go to the wife whom he loved with all the strength of his nature, and the parting from whom, was the deepest proof that could have been of his loyalty to the cause he had made his own.
As he wrote the Arbella was riding at anchor at Cowes, waiting for favorable winds. Some of the party had gone on shore, and all longed to end these last hours of waiting which simply prolonged a pain that even the most determined and resolute among them, felt to be almost intolerable. Many messages went back carried by friends who lingered at Cowes for the last look at the vanishing sails, but none better worth record than the words which hold the man's deep and tender soul.
"And now, my sweet soul, I must once again take my last farewell of thee in old England. It goeth very near to my heart to leave thee, but I know to whom I have committed thee, even to Him, who loves thee much better than any husband can; who hath taken account of the hairs of thy head, and puts all thy tears in his bottle; who can, and (if it be for his glory) will, bring us together again with peace and comfort. Oh, how it refresheth my heart to think, that I shall yet again see thy sweet face in the land of the living; that lovely countenance that I have so much delighted in, and beheld with so great content! I have hitherto been so taken up with business, as I could seldom look back to my former happiness; but now when I shall be at some leisure, I shall not avoid the remembrance of thee, nor the grief for thy absence. Thou hast thy share with me, but I hope the course we have agreed upon will be some ease to us both. Mondays and Fridays at five o clock at night we shall meet in spirit till we meet in person. Yet if all these hopes should fail, blessed be our God, that we are assured we shall meet one day, if not as husband and wife, yet in a better condition. Let that stay and comfort thine heart. Neither can the sea drown thy husband, nor enemies destroy, nor any adversity deprive thee of thy husband or children. Therefore I will only take thee now and my sweet children in mine arms, and kiss and embrace you all, and so leave you with God. Farewell, farewell. I bless you all in the name of the Lord Jesus."
"Farewell, dear England!" burst from the little group on that 8th of April, 1630, when at last, a favorable wind bore them out to sea, and Anne Bradstreet's voice had part in that cry of pain and longing, as the shores grew dim and "home faded from their sight. But one comfort or healing, remained for them, in the faith that had been with all from the beginning, one record being for them and the host who preceded and followed their flight. So they left that goodly and pleasant city which had been their resting place; . . . but they knew they were pilgrims and looked not much on those things, but lift up their eyes to the heavens, their dearest country, and quieted their spirits."

Critic Reviews for Requiem
All Critics (35) | Top Critics (15) | Fresh (30) | Rotten (5) | DVD (5)
Working from an economical and intelligent script by Bernd Lange , Schmid directs his first feature with the easy conviction that eluded the makers of the preposterous Emily Rose.
Stage actress Sandra Huller delivers a stunning, understated performance...
The nonsensationalistic results are also somewhat ho-hum -- and oddly less convincing than Friedkin's lurid mess, let alone the elegant satanism sagas of Tourneur and Polanski.
The confusion and panic and everyday interactions in Requiem feel honest and true-to-life, which has nothing to do with how factual it is, or isn't.
In lesser hands, Requiem would seem merely bleak, but Schmid makes a rigorously urgent and compelling film out of Michaela's odyssey.
Quietly devastating and unbearably moving, this is a soul-searching classic.
Audience Reviews for Requiem
a tragic clash of science and superstition inspired by the case of a mentally ill and very religious german girl who died under exorcism in the 70s. the film is understated and plays almost like a documentary
Super Reviewer
Don't see this expecting something in the vein of The Exorcist. There aren't any spinning heads or projectile vomiting and no sign of the demon Pazuzu here. Instead, Requiem is a non-sensationalized, non-judgmental look at what happens when mental illness clashes with religion. Based on the same case that inspired The Exorcism of Emily Rose, but the two films are different. Emily Rose focused primarily on a lawyer involved in a court case involving the Priest who performed the exorcism, while Requiem focuses on the woman and is a drama about what can lead someone to believe they are possessed. The topic of exorcism may be easy "go to" material for horror films, but Requiem is not a horror film and the director doesn't decide for us whether or not she is possessed, but instead lets us draw our own conclusions. Lead actress Sandra Huller is really great throughout the film and the handheld camerawork is a nice touch in making the viewer feel as if they are in the room alongside her family.
Super Reviewer
Like "The exorcism of Emily Rose" this film is (merely) inspired by the true events around Anneliese Michel in Germany of the 70s. A girl raised in strictly catholic terms battles with epilepsy as she is struggling to start a new life as University student. The grasp of her religious upbringing, especially in the shape of her mother, are pretty much choking her, creating an opposite reaction that leads to the church labeling her possessed, culminating in a series of unfortunate exorcism attempts. The film spares us the ugly details of those and reports about the outcome in a final info text. It doesn't give creed to the obsession-theory and therefore doesn't contain horror scenes of demons or anything like that. The movie also doesn't concentrate the blame on a single party involved and simply portrays a person who couldn't function under the pressure she got from many sides, despite of being loved by them none the less. It is the great acting that makes this slow and quiet film interesting and raises it above average. Especially Sandra Hüller in the main role does an extraordinary job.

Isn't our voter attendance piss poor already? Who the hell is going to wake up early to vote for a review team. Jesus, we all don't have the luxury of having a commissioners work schedule.

No no the Commission still votes for them, just concerned citizen groups nominate the candidates. No general election involvement.
- freememiami Mon Mar 19, 09:18 PM #
Cause Ms. Sorenson knows nothing will come of that and she defers her obligation to fight for the best committee…funny how she likes to help hand-picked committees like the ethics commission when it's in her favor.
Full steam ahead! Is a great term, too bad she has NEVER steamed ahead anywhere. More traffic, more taxes, more housing, more problems, never a solution other than lets study it…12 years later, she is still not smart enough to conquer anything she has promised to to.
Lets focus on the other commissioners and real solutions not "lets all decide". Take responsibility PLEASE! SHOW LEADERSHIP NOT "WISHY WASHYNESS".

A Call to Service for McCain
Ed. note: Inside Pre-K "blogger emeritus" Sophia Pappas—who was inspired to public service by John McCain's 2000 presidential campaign and later became a pre-k teacher—sent in this post from her new perch at Harvard's Kennedy School.
When is John McCain going to tell Americans what he would do to make quality pre-kindergarten accessible to all families?
McCain adviser Virginia Walden Ford, guestblogging at Eduwonk this week, gave the McCain campaign's most substantial nod yet to early childhood education, but the bar had been set pretty low. She wrote:
John McCain believes a child's education begins at day one, and the schools and centers that support early learning must be nothing less than excellent. Attention must be focused on providing access to high quality care and education in all programs serving our youngest children with particular emphasis on high quality preschool for low-income students.
Just as we have focused our attention for the past decade on the quality of K-12, McCain will look to create the same information and database for our early care and school readiness programs.
Statements like these raise hopes that McCain will offer a proposal to invest more federal dollars in quality pre-k. Perhaps his running mate, Alaska governor Sarah Palin, will encourage him to do so. Federal pre-k incentives could help Alaska start a state-funded pre-k program, and Palin has proposed increasing her state's investment in Head Start.
But, if the advice of a running mate cannot convince McCain, the smart politics of backing voluntary pre-k for all should.
With decades of studies demonstrating its lasting benefits for children and its return of up to $7 for each dollar invested, high-quality pre-k would align well with McCain's themes of reform and efficient, effective government spending. Data released in June from an ongoing pre-k study in Tulsa, Oklahoma, show that children enrolled in the state's pre-k-for-all program made substantial gains in early literacy and math skills, regardless of their family background. Remarkably, in measures of pre-reading and pre-writing skills, low-income children in state-funded pre-k improved more than their peers in nearby federal Head Start centers, who also achieved impressive gains.
Pre-k also fits well with McCain's broad education framework of innovation, choice, and accountability. At its core, pre-k empowers parents to provide their children with rich educational and social experiences during the most critical period of brain development. States are building voluntary programs that let families choose from a wide range of pre-k providers, including public schools, Head Start centers, community-based child care, and in some states faith-based institutions.
And it can't be overlooked that that voters want the federal government to do more to ensure that children are ready to learn and thrive when they enter school. Nationally, nearly seven in 10 voters—and an equal proportion of "swing voters"—favor a proposed federal incentive grant to help states make quality and access enhancements in their pre-k programs. In New Jersey, a state McCain intends to target, 68% of all voters—and 67% of Independents—support state-funded pre-k for all. Furthermore, a strong pre-k proposal could also help blunt the Obama campaign's strategy in the South. Voters there are more enthusiastic backers of a federal pre-k grant, and Obama's game plan in the region relies on winning vast numbers of votes from African Americans and Latinos, groups in which nine in 10 approve of a federal pre-k investment.
Finally, a strong statement on pre-k would put McCain in good company within his party. States as different as Alabama, California, Connecticut, and Minnesota have seen Republican governors embrace publicly funded early childhood education and work with Democrats to pass funding increases. Bipartisanship on pre-k is catching in Congress, too. In June, five Republican members of the House Education and Labor Committee joined their Democratic colleagues to approve the Providing Resources Early for Kids Act, which would establish a federal-state pre-k partnership through an incentive grant of half a billion dollars.
By unveiling a pre-k proposal, Sen. McCain could ensure more than an applause line. He could ally himself with the research, his party's most forward-thinking education reformers, and crucial segments of the electorate. Most importantly, perhaps, he could change the education debate in this election cycle from a retread of ideas from the last eight years to a vibrant dialogue about the new frontiers in education, showing voters that he has the judgment to embrace what works.

NOOK Book(eBook - Original)
Why Now?
Rose Forrester was too old to be lying on her car's front seat spying on her first love. She even had a husband and a teenage daughter waiting for her at home. But Rob MacIntyre's return had just turned her world upside down. Seventeen years ago he'd been the town's golden boy and she'd been amazed that he'd even noticed her. Well, he'd done a lot more than notice .
Now she has to tell her husband some hard truths. As she copes with the unfolding drama, Rose discovers she's not the only one in her family hiding things. Even the family dog has prior baggage. And Rose realizes that she, too, must let go of her secret so she can finally test her wings .

Read an Excerpt
The phone rings so early on Saturday morning, Rose Forrester tears herself from sleep and runs to the kitchen, the dread of dire illness or accidents propelling her down the stairs to the rhythm of the Hail Mary repeating in her head. "Yes?" she pants into the receiver.
"Rosie? You'll never guess what!" Helen Slezac's voice is squeaky with excitement. Rose hears the swoosh of washing machines in the background.
"Helen? It's only six-fifty. We're sleeping in," Rose whispers. She hopes her descent didn't waken the household. Everett has been looking tired. And Valley came in late from her date.
"I know. I know. But this one can't wait. I had to tell you." Rose tries to chase the edge from her voice. Poor Helen has been divorced so long, she's forgotten the pleasure of drowsing in bed. "Tell me what?"
"I got in early and was waiting for the dryer to quit tumbling to yank Jed Peterson's stuff before it wrinkled — you know how picky he is — when I looked up to see an old friend walking into Millie's."
Rose's heart has slowed to match the glub-dub of the washers. She pictures Helen at her usual post — at the pay phone by the Laundromat's front window, spying on the donut shop. "Who, Helen? Tell me."
"Rob MacIntyre."
Rose mouths the syllables. Her third finger finds her mouth, and her teeth search for loose cuticles. Rob's is the one name she'd hoped never to hear again when he disappeared from town seventeen years ago.
"Rosie? Are you still there? Is something wrong?"
"Everett's calling," Rose says so softly she can barely hear herself. "I've got to go." She hangs the receiver on the hook and lingers a moment, as though still connected to Rob by Helen's voice. Her mouth tastes metallic, as if she's been sucking on nickels. She tiptoes into the bedroom, looks to make sure Everett is still sleeping, slips a dress from its hanger, and hurries to the bathroom.
She must have brushed her teeth, combed her hair and zipped the dress, but she only remembers turning the car key and wanting to hush the engine.
Her Galaxy heads toward town, slowing abruptly where the speed limit drops from fifty to twenty-five. Chief Dudley waits in his cruiser behind the same bush every day, clocking all the residents. She salutes as she passes him, then coasts toward the three downtown blocks of Eden proper, lurching from one corner to the next. It's silly to have so many stop signs in a one-bank town.
In the middle of one block she pauses for old Mr.
Cockburn to cross to Millie's Dunk 'n' Sip from the loading dock at the Feed and Seed. She forces a smile and tells herself to nod and act normal, though stopping directly in front of the donut shop is last on her list. Mr. Cockburn dodders in front of her car, his left hand trailing across her hood for balance. Rose oh-so-casually glances to her left. The hunched backs of the Saturday-morning regulars show through the window, middle-aged men straddling counter stools in their John Deere caps, chugging hot coffee as if June temperatures didn't faze them. She can hear them in her head, chewing on predictable topics between swallows — whether Reagan's new agriculture secretary will favor Ohio or if the plate ump in last night's Reds game was on the take. But even squinting she can't make out one back from the next. Can't tell if one of them belongs to Rob. Helen sounded certain, but Rose needs to see for herself.
At the corner one of Eden's single mothers leaves DudsIn-Suds with a laundry basket balanced on one hip. The woman brushes the hair off her brow, and two raggedy kids with green mouths come straggling behind her, sucking on lollipops. Rose slows, remembering the days when Valley was small and wakened early, when Rose, too, had finished her housework before 8:00 a.m. The woman steps into the road, then stops to make eye contact with Rose. The children bump into their mother's back. Rose takes note of the kids' health, as though she's assigned to watch over fatherless children everywhere. Welfare brats, Everett calls them. Rose winces every time he says it, his judgment slashing at her insides.
There's a parking spot one block up where she'll have a good view of Main Street but Helen can't see her. She turns around in the alley next to the theater and parallel parks facing Millie's. Then she pulls her checkbook and a pen from her purse, so if anyone wonders why she's sitting there, she can pretend to be balancing her account. But no one is outside except for the single mom, who piles the kids into her rusty boat of a Chevy. Rose strains to see if she can make out car seats through the windshield, though maybe the kids are too old for that. The Chevy cruises by, the kids standing behind the broad bench seat while their mother flips through radio channels. "Seat belts!" Rose hollers, but then is instantly ashamed. Everett regularly reminds her what's none of her business. Luckily the Chevy radio is blaring, so no one heard.
The street is quiet for long minutes afterward, and Rose considers where Rob might stay if he were really back in town. His mother's house sold — she saw the sign — so if he's there, he can't stay long. She once heard Phil Langston mention Rob's name in Millie's. She can't remember that they buddied around in school, but those things changed, judging from herself and Helen anyway. The two of them had hardly spoken until after graduation. Helen had smoked in the woods behind the school with the fast crowd, while Rose, who didn't own her own clarinet, had stayed after school to practice in the band room. Everett had hung out in that hallway, so she hadn't really been by herself. Rob had always been on a ball field of one shape or another, with all the girls going gaga from the stands. Since Rose hadn't been one of them, their night together was all the more miraculous.
Just then Millie's screen door swings open. A bunch of the regulars ramble out, turning and talking to the person holding the door, jostling each other and laughing. Then Rob steps onto the stoop in jeans and a tucked-in T-shirt. "Sweet Jesus," comes from Rose's lips unbidden, and she fingers the rayon of her dress, rubbing its silky softness over her bare thighs. Rob stands with his hands in his hip pockets, rocking slightly from heels to toes. She'd know that stance anywhere — a man version of the boy who, in the warm water of Kaiser Lake, first freed her body from more than her bathing suit. Rob's a little broader for all these years, but so is she. Still, gravity's been kind. His hair is shorter now, freshly washed and combed, and he's grown a mustache. He turns from the doorway, waves to the guys going the other way and heads up the street toward her. Her first instinct is to duck, and Rose finds herself sprawling across the front seat, wishing the hot-pink flowers on her dress would die. The plastic upholstery grabs at her legs, and the titillating mix of exhilaration and danger that kept her awake those long-ago summer nights grips her once again. Never mind she's thirty-five and runs a household. Her schoolgirl foolishness is back. He still has that power.
She hears his boots on the sidewalk and can't resist opening her eyes. He glances down. Valley's smile flits across his mouth and eyes. Dimples pinpoint his cheeks. If she looks familiar, he doesn't let on. He walks on by. She blows the bangs off her forehead and assures herself he didn't miss a step. He smiled, yes, but anyone would smile at the sight of a woman lying on a car seat. She needn't feel foolish. It made perfect sense to lie down in your car when you didn't feel well.
But that's nonsense, and Rose knows it.
When enough time has passed that Rose is certain Rob is farther down the street, she sits up and searches her rearview mirror. She can't help noting how Rob's shoulders preside over his narrow waist and firm buttocks. Her hands cup as if around his bottom. Her palms remember.
Rob disappears around a corner, and Rose checks her reflection. She sees crow's feet, but her brow is still smooth. It's the one advantage of carrying a little extra weight. Her skin is young-looking, even if her hips and thighs make it hard to find a bathing suit. She stretches her mouth in a grimace to exercise her neck muscles, then relaxes again. Her chin looks tighter for it, she's sure, and she does the exercise a few more times. A double chin would spoil her looks.
Two car doors slam behind her. She watches Woody Mansfield and his son get out of the Mansfield Plumbing truck and jaywalk to Millie's, Woody catching the sleeve of Billy's Little League shirt to hurry him across. Everett has been working on a new house with Woody this week, making sure Rose has a good life and she wonders when she'll realize that Rob's good looks are no match for Everett's hard work. Whatever brought Rob back to Eden, concern for her welfare wasn't it. He probably doesn't even know Valley is a girl — except that he's been in touch with Phil. She wonders what Phil knows and if he has ever talked to Everett. They've never been close, she's certain of that, but there was no controlling who sat down on the next stool at Millie's. At least Everett isn't in there this morning. She needs to get home before he realizes she's been gone.
Rose starts the engine and pulls out of the parking space.

The call from her best friend came at o¿dark informing Rose Forrester that her former lover Rob MacIntyre was back in town after years of being away. Rose panics, as no one knows that seventeen years ago when she was a teen she made love with the town¿s golden boy resulting in a pregnancy. Her family, neighbors, husband Everett and her teenage daughter Valley think her spouse sired their offspring Rose knows better.--------------------- - She would prefer for Rob to leave, but her desperate efforts to drive him out of town fail and only alienate her spouse and daughter. Rose concludes she must tell first Everett, then Valley, and finally her dad the truth about her biological father. All she can do is pray that they are forgiving of her hiding the truth from them not realizing each one of them also has secrets that they should reveal but fear condemnation by their loved ones.--------------- BUTTERFLY SOUP is an insightful relationship drama that is at its best when readers feel the mental anguish suffered by the protagonist when the story line turns frenzied with a desperate irrational activity it adds excitement, but loses its focus of a deep psychological study when an individual struggles with difficult choices. The cast is solid and seem real (except that those times when Rose is an out of control thorn) as each has secrets they conceal, but none has the steel to reveal even piecemeal.-------------- Harriet Klausner

The Big Idea (museum)
The Big Idea was a millennium-funded, interactive museum in Irvine in North Ayrshire, Scotland.
The museum, built on the site of Alfred Nobel's dynamite factory,[1] was devoted to invention and inventors.[1] Scottish inventors featured include John Napier, William Murdock, Alexander Fleming and John Logie Baird.
When the museum opened in 2000, there were 120,000 visitors, but in 2001, there were only 50,000. In 2003, the exhibition centre closed because of very low visitor numbers. The museum building is still there, with a turf-covered roof and built to resemble a giant sand dune, but its future is still undecided.
There is a time capsule buried under the museum. The footbridge, called the 'Bridge of Scottish Inventions', can open to allow ships to pass through and, as of mid-2018, remains in the open position.

Wow, someone did a JAG for me...?
they are definitely one of the best bands in the UK at the moment
can't wait for the album
Really looking forward to this.justanothersheeldz this'd this
I was not so very impressed with "Albatross"
but keep some hope and excitement for the remaining nine tracks.
I know its a bad idea toform an opinion from what 've read rather than heard.
But it seems most people are saying its a reserved album, much in the same vein as Albatross...the aparent strength lies in the album as a cohesive whole. Apparenty

Diesel drivers could be even worse off, with pump prices up by as much as 12p a litre by December.
The forecast comes following the price of Brent crude oil increasing by £13 a barrel since the middle of this year, up by about 20 per cent.
It prompted calls for Chancellor Philip Hammond to scrap a fuel duty rise in his Autumn Statement next week.
A barrel of oil is trading at more than $ 63 (US dollars), the highest since June 2015.
It means a definite price hike at the pumps for Britain's 37 million drivers, say experts.
The RAC motoring group predicts petrol will rise by 3p a litre from its current 119p average, while diesel will go up 1p to 121p.
But George Buckley, UK economist at investment bank Nomura, predicts bigger hikes of between 7p and 8p a litre.
Simon Williams, the RAC's fuel spokesman, said: "Motorists are going to be hit by rising pump prices in the next few weeks."
If the average car uses about 35 litres of fuel a week, Nomura's forecasts would add £150 a year extra to motoring bills.
Mr Buckley estimates that petrol prices are set to rise by 6.5 per cent at a time when food prices are going up 3.5 per cent, but earnings are lagging behind at 2.2 per cent.
Howard Cox, of the pressure group Fair Fuel UK, called on chancellor Philip Hammond to freeze fuel duty in his budget on November 22.
Fuel duty has remained at 57.95p a litre since 2011, but diesel is taxed higher than other EU countries.
Mr Cox said: "Britain's struggling small traders and businesses deserve and need all the help they can get".
Further rises in petrol and diesel will boost inflation and put pressure on the Bank of England to raise interest rates again, he warned.

I am looking for a device (e.g. climbing descender) that I can use in a wall/door-mounted exerciser to provide adjustable resistance for strength development
i.e. so that increasing the pull on one end of the rope would increase the friction/grip on the rope where it passes through the device - gradually slow the rope movement but NOT jam stop.
It will be like a cable pulley machine but without the need for a weight stack to vary the resistance.
There were simple forms of this adjustable resistance exerciser used by x-country skiers and swimmers around decades ago, but as I haven't been able to locate any (for a club that now uses stretch cords), I am casting about for alternatives for the club and for individual athletes.
Does anyone know of any gear that would work in this application?

Re: Possible gear use for exerciser
Do you want it to be continuously adjustable (eg. you pull on one end while someone else is exercising to make it easier/harder?), if so, a simple pipe wrap or a belay device may be an option.
If not, then something like the Kong Kisa http://www.kong.it/doc408.htm

What's the right height for a boy? Or the right weight for a girl? How much food is right for you every day? The answer to these questions, as for that on the right dosage of fish oil, is the same: It depends.
A list of benefits from taking fish oil supplements, most related to their anti-inflammatory activity, includes protection from colon cancer, depression, asthma, menstrual cramps, diabetes, multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Fish oil lowers triglyceride levels and reduces heart disease risk.
If you are taking fish oil for the health promotion effect, then 3 grams of fish oil a day is the right dosage. It will provide you with 1 gram of DHA, a long-chain omege 3 fatty acid that's the critical ingredient of fish oil.
Omega 3 is found predominantly in fatty fish – trout, white tuna, halibut, mackerel and salmon. Other seafoods rich in omega 3 are oysters, sardines and herring. Consuming any of these fatty fish can significantly reduce triglycerides.
However, if you are taking it for treatment of a medical condition, the dosage of fish oil will differ and you must consult your medical advisor or practitioner to decide on what's right for you. An option that allows you to enjoy the benefits of fish oil, without the risks, is to take fish oil capsules.
Another alternative to fish oil for your omega 3 requirements is to take ample amounts of ground linseeds or linseed oil (1 to 2 tablespoons a day) in your diet. Plant sources, however, are a poorer source of long chain omega 3 fatty acids like DHA and EPA. Supplementary DHA derived from algae is also available as a commercial product, as Omega Zen-3.
Once you have decided on the ideal dosage of fish oil you need, you can pick from among several brands. Choose one that uses oil from fish caught in the cleanest and coldest waters, preferably those far from commercial shipping lines and industrialized countries where the highest risk of water contamination by wastes exists.
Fish oil capsules are made safer by molecular distilling, which removes any mercury or other heavy metals, dioxins, PCBs and other contaminants. So a lower dosage of fish oil will deliver all the benefits.
To learn more about the right dosage of fish oil supplements that many other health enthusiasts like you take every day for health, fitness and longevity, check out this link – click here.

Here is another great meal from the pressure cooker. Pulled pork tender and tasty. This is a simple paleo recipe that cooks right in the barbecue sauce.
Barbecue Sauce
You can use your favorite commercial brand or make your own.
The sauce I made is a combination of SOG's BBQ sauce, along with some of Richard Nikoley's changes, plus a few of my own.
Start with a heaping tablespoon of bacon grease in a sauce pan, heat on medium. Add to that, one diced onion and a tablespoon or two of diced garlic.
After a few minutes, add 1 and 1/2 cups of broth (what every kind you have, I was actually out of broth when I made this so I used water but included the bone from the pork roast when cooking to add more flavor). Stir in one 6oz. can of tomato paste, 1 tsp dry mustard, 1 tsp molasses, 1 tblsp liquid smoke, 1 tblsp apple cider vinegar, 2 tblsps chili power and one small can of mandarin oranges. The mandarin oranges add some sweetness and about 30 grams of carbs to the whole thing. I didn't add any salt because the bacon grease has some in it and often times pork has been soaked in a brine. Feel free to add salt to your taste.
Let simmer while you prepare the pork.
If you don't use tomato based barbecue sauce, you could use my berry paleo barbecue sauce instead.
Pork Shoulder
I used a 4 1/2 pound bone in pork shoulder. Then I cut it up into large chunks and sprinkled with paprika.
Place the cooking rack in your pressure cooker, 1 cup of water and the cut up roast. Then lock the lid on and bring up to high pressure. Once high pressure is reached, set the timer for 16 minutes and reduce heat as low as possible while still maintaining high pressure. After the timer goes off, turn off heat and let cooker release pressure naturally.
Once pressure is released, remove the meat. Use two forks to pull apart the meat and discard the bone. This is a really fatty cut of pork, so you may want to remove some of the larger pieces of fat (whatever your preference). Then pour the desired amount of sauce over the meat, I also like to add some of the cooking liquid for more flavor – stir then serve.
This pulled pork in the pressure cooker is so fast and easy to make, but it tastes like it cooked all day.

Then go back to chute on wall. Grab capsule and put money in it and send it back.
You will get a key when it returns.
Use key on door and escape!
For fun, you can draw on the yen note with the pen to make the man look funny.
Still no key, the money just comes back. I'm giving up.
@pascale you have to call first and then send the money.
Blue Chamber Walkthrough:
Go to the desk with the phone on it and open the drawer. Take the pen.
Turn all the way around and face the chair. Click on the cushion and take the piece of paper.
Go to the pole thing on the wall and take the cylinder out of it.
Click on the paper and then keep clicking on the pen until it says "Help Me."
Put the paper into the cylinder.
Put the cylinder back into the pole and press the red button. Wait for it to come back then take the paper back out.
Make a 180 degree turn to face the picture. Click on the upper right corner of the frame. Then click on the upper left corner. Then the lower right corner. Take the money.
Click on the money and then the pen. Draw a face. Then put the money into the cylinder.
Go to the phone and dial 4357*63. A deep voice will tell you "OK."
Go to the pole and put the cylinder back inside. Press the red button. When it comes back take the key out.
Use the key on the door.
Buggy game. First time the key disappeared, the second time there was no key in return for the money. I gave up.
Yalcin...I love you man! I haven't played this in years.
Wow that 'OK' voice was creeeepy. love it. I had the speakers loud too! it kinda reminded me of the scary looking clown guy from Saw! lol. btw thanks for the WT. darn asterisk in between.
Hi everyone
I am from FGN
Love these replay games ;]
My dad had a massive problem with the number for the phone and was mad that he couldnt get out:D It took me 5 minutes XD
This game is very old
I sent the money thru the chute and it came back empty
This game seems so easy now, when it came out at first I remember thinking it was really difficult. Have a soft spot for these games as they were amongst the first ones I ever played.

If you were to ask me what was a challenging season of my life, I would have to say the baby/early-child-rearing days were some of the toughest. I know some women who are just such natural nurturers and stay at home moms. I genuinely wish I was that kind of mom. The kind that have schedules and get their hair and make-up done by noon. The kind who don't stay in their jammies until 4 PM and then quickly change before the husband comes home so you look like you did stuff all day. The kind of mom who makes banana bread and purees their own baby food, plans play-dates and makes homemade play dough. You know that mom.
I was more of the fake til you make it, hair all dishevelled, toys all over the place, too much TV and waiting until husband is home to figure out what I SHOULD have taken out of the freezer so we can eat dinner in a decent time before bath and bedtime routines begin.
If I could go back, I would embrace that season with both arms and legs, like a koala ☺ Why is hindsight ALWAYS 20-20? I would go back, snuggle my babies all day long, plan long play dates, invite people to the house more often, wear my sweat pants out and not worry about my hair or make-up ever getting done. I would make that homemade puree because I want to, not because it's an expectation. And I would dig into my Bible and enjoy the extra time being at home.
I know those seasons have purpose and a place in our life, but they can be really challenging to get through. I have a greater appreciation for new moms in this stage. It can be a very difficult season personally and usually a difficult marital season as well. It can be straining on all sides. Everyone is just so darn tired!
I don't know what season you are in right now. Maybe it's a stay-at-home-mom season, maybe it is an empty-nest season. Maybe it is a sit-and-wait season – for a job, for a husband.
Whatever season you find yourself in I want to challenge you to not waste this time. This is not a holding cell or a waiting room. There is still much to be done and you can be productive in this season. There are people to be encouraged, things to learn that you don't yet know. This can be a season of preparation.
So, what if we looked into our current season and asked: "God, what do you want to teach me in this season?"
I often wonder if God has a particular time set for these seasons or if we, through our attitude, grumbling and complaining, prolong these seasons? My season at home seemed much longer then it was. I didn't get to where I wanted to go very quickly. It was almost 10 years. I wonder had I approached my season with a different attitude could I have shaved off a few years? I'll never really know.
From now on, I am determined that I do not want to go through a particular season any longer then I have to. And if any of that is dependent upon MY attitude, I will be better. I will be positive. I will embrace it for all its worth. I will ask God what He wants to teach me, what He wants to change in me, who He wants me to encourage and how I can receive all He has for me. That is what I want. I know it will be hard, but I don't want to waste any time. God has something for me in every season. Because with God never is ever wasted.
The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance. Psalm 16:5-6
For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. Ecclesiastes 3:1
He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. Psalm 1:3
