"You're so sensitive, geez!"
I can't begin to count how many times has a coworker said this to me. Or the equally affirming, "You need to have a thicker skin! Don't let them get to you."
I am too sensitive. I admit it.
I have at various times trembled, flushed profusely, and cried at comments from colleagues that were intended as constructive criticism. It's hard to describe how exposed and raw I feel sometimes, especially in work-related settings. Most of the time, it sucks.
I also empathize intensely with people I care about when they are experiencing strong emotions. Listening to someone describe grief or loss makes me grieve as well, and sometimes it's almost like my emotions mirror those of people close to me. This can make it rough to hear about traumatic experiences, but it also makes me the person who cries with a friend with true compassion.
There is scientific evidence that this reaction is part of how sensitive people are wired. In a recent experiment using functional MRI scans, participants who identified as sensitive demonstrated activation of the brain regions involved in awareness, integration of sensory information, and empathy. (Bianca Acevedo et. al., The highly sensitive brain: an fMRI study of sensory processing sensitivity and response to others' emotions.) This is why, despite my efforts to "get thicker skin," my sensitivity stays with me.
Sometimes this weakness becomes my superpower.
Over the years, I've discovered that being highly sensitive has distinct advantages as well, and this trait has helped me to be better at my job. Here are four of the advantages of being sensitive I've personally experienced.
- People share more with me. They tell me about the challenges they have faced, the trauma they have overcome, and the fears they have. I've been able to connect more profoundly with students, alumni, and clients because they sense I'm open to a deeper relationship.
- I can win over antagonists. I've been privileged to interview a reluctant Holocaust survivor, mend fences with alumni who were discriminated against as students, and bring detractors on board as enthusiastic supporters. My ability to listen and really understand someone's hurt or anger makes me better able to meet them where they are, and hopefully move them.
- I'm aware of my own emotions. Like most sensitive people, I have had to work hard on emotional self-regulation in order to cope with the highs and lows that come with being sensitive. When I face a challenging situation, part of me is observing, cataloging, and managing the emotions that I experience. (Learn more about self-regulation on Elaine Aron's web site, The Highly Sensitive Person.)
- My writing resonates strongly with other sensitive people. When I write about the challenges of being sensitive, I get comments from people who sincerely appreciate my words. Some folks in my network have let me know that my writing has helped them navigate challenges. It's a good feeling to connect with people who get what it's like to live with "thin skin."
By thinking about the ways my sensitivity is a strength in my relationships, it makes it easier to take the advice from my well-meaning, thick-skinned acquaintances. It helps me get through the days when I feel so raw and touchy. On another day, I know I'll be able to connect deeply with someone, find common ground with a rival, or write a post that strikes a chord with someone in a meaningful way.
If you're sensitive, I'd love to hear what characteristics you've discovered - both positive and negative - that are related to sensitivity. Please drop me a quick comment, and share your take on being sensitive in this thick-skinned world!

A new series of miniature, frameless, tantalum polymer SMD capacitors from AVX Corp., the F38 series, utilizes proprietary FRAMELESST technology, which is characterized by a unique lead-frame-less and facedown structure, precise dimensions, and low-stress packaging. The surface-mount capacitors provide high capacitance in miniature M and S cases for high volumetric efficiency. Featuring conductive polymer cathodes, which can handle high ripple currents, F38 Series capacitors also exhibit low ESR, low ESL, and low, flat impedance over a wide frequency range, and are ideal for use in a broad range of consumer applications, including: smartphones, tablet PCs, portable gaming devices, and wireless modules.
Impervious to capacitance variations resulting from fluctuations in temperature or voltage, the new F38 Series tantalum polymer capacitors provide design engineers with a high-reliability alternative to the noise-emitting MLCCs in mobile phone and other handheld consumer device applications.
Rated for use in temperatures ranging from -55 C to +105 C, AVX's new F38 Series tantalum polymer capacitors are RoHS-compliant, halogen free, and available in two case sizes: M (1.6 mm x 0.85 mm x 0.8 mm) and S (2.0 mm x 1.25 mm x 0.8 mm). Currently, M-case F38 Series capacitors are available rated for 10 V and 2.2 F or 10 V and 4.7 F; however, the following ratings are in development and slated for introduction later this year: 6.3 V and 22 F, 6.3 V and 47 F, and 10 V and 10 F. S-case F38 Series capacitors are currently available rated for 6.3 V and 47 F. Two additional S-case ratings, 4 V and 100 F and 10 V and 22 F, are also in development and slated for introduction later this year.

Lincecum loses matchup of aces as L.A. wins 1-0
Major-league records are easy to check. A few taps of the keyboard revealed that Tim Lincecum had not lost a 1-0 game in the majors before the Dodgers got him Wednesday. Lincecum had to think hard when asked if he took a 1-0 loss in college or high school. He could not remember one.
This one could have been predicted. Pablo Sandoval was out with a quad injury. Newest Giant Jeff Keppinger was supposed to start at second base but had a flight delay from Houston. Miguel Tejada, whose bat had been simmering, was on the disabled list. The lineup card filled out by manager Bruce Bochy was not particularly scary.
Oh, and the Giants were facing Clayton Kershaw, one of the filthiest left-handers in the game.
"You knew it was going to be a close game, a tough game," Lincecum said. "I flinched first."
His flinch was a seventh-inning fastball to Dodgers catcher Dioner Navarro that was supposed to be down and away. Lincecum threw it over the plate and it wound up in the hands of a kayaker in McCovey Cove, the first splash home run by a visitor this year.
"Just a mistake," Lincecum said. "Late in the game, a crucial game, that's not what I'm supposed to be doing."
Lincecum should not beat himself up. He was fantastic. Kershaw was just more fantastic against a depleted lineup, striking out a season-high 12 and demonstrating why Bochy used him for an inning in the All-Star Game.
"It stinks for Timmy because he pitched so well," said Cody Ross, whose .264 batting average was the highest in the Giants' lineup by 22 points. "It's a tough loss for us, but at the end of the day, we won the series two out of three. But you want the last game, especially with your ace on the mound."
Despite the loss, which ended a six-game win streak against Los Angeles, the Giants have started 5-2 after the break. Their immediate task gets tougher.
They face five playoff contenders over their next 19 games, starting with Milwaukee. The stretch includes all seven games on the schedule against the Phillies, the consensus pick for best team in the league.
And, of course, the Giants' NLCS foe last year. You know Philadelphia is on their minds.
"If things go well," Lincecum said, "we can put a little more credibility in our corner about last year not being a fluke."
Lincecum now has lost twice in his career when allowing only one run, and Kershaw is the common denominator. The other game was this year's season opener in Los Angeles, a 2-1 Dodgers victory.
Lincecum called Kershaw "ridiculously good." Bochy, asked if he feared a game like this given how many Giants were hurt, said, "I've seen it before. Even when our guys are healthy, he's shut us out, more than once."
Nothing illustrated Kershaw's brilliance more than the eighth inning, when he struck out the side for the second time. His 102nd pitch was a 94-mph fastball that he fired past pinch-hitter Nate Schierholtz on the outside corner for strike three. His 108th pitch was a hard, bending curveball that Andres Torres whiffed for strike three.
Kershaw then finished his 111-pitch afternoon by shooting a high fastball past Mike Fontenot, who shot his bat toward the dugout with equal determination after striking out for the third time.

US automakers warn of catastrophe without bailout2 min read . Updated: 19 Nov 2008, 09:59 AM IST
US automakers warn of catastrophe without bailout
US automakers warn of catastrophe without bailout
Washington: A proposed $25 billion bailout of US automakers failed to gain traction on Tuesday in the Senate despite pleas from industry that failure to act could result in wholesale liquidation.
There is strong sentiment to help General Motors Corp, Ford Motor Co, and Chrysler LLC, with loans, but doubts surfaced about the amount requested, whether Detroit companies would be healthy enough to repay it, and a general resistance to spending yet more taxpayer money on corporate rescues.
"We're not there yet," Christopher Dodd of Connecticut, the Banking Committee chairman said after a four-hour hearing on the auto bailout. "Trying to jam something through would be a mistake."
Dodd and his colleagues grilled Rick Wagoner of GM, Alan Mulally of Ford and Robert Nardelli of Chrysler, who said he would work for $1 if it would help sway reluctant lawmakers to sign off on a bailout.
Nardelli said Chrysler explored bankruptcy and other options before appealing to Washington. He said Chrysler was was fragile, while Wagoner warned of a "catastrophic" shock to the US economy if insolvency struck the industry.
Ron Gettelfinger, United Auto Workers president, said inaction by Congress could result in GM, Ford and Chrysler liquidating. The three companies employ nearly 250,000 people and affect millions of other workers in related industries.
The executives did not balk at proposed bailout conditions, including Wagoner, who said GM would agree to the government taking an equity stake. GM said it needs between $10 billion and $12 billion in bailout cash, while Chrysler and Ford said about $7 billion each would help them.
But executive assurances of loan repayment, transparency, exclusively investing bailout funds in the United States, and promising to pursue fuel efficiency, did not appear to move their allies in the Senate any closer to success.
Barring an unexpected breakthrough in talks between Democrats and Republicans, who favor another option also backed by the White House, no votes are expected on the bailout before Thursday or Friday, Senate aides said.
Senate Democrats are still short of the 60 votes needed in to overcome procedural hurdles, aides and lawmakers said on Tuesday.
Reid was hopeful a deal could be reached with wavering lawmakers but raised the possibility the bailout plan would not succeed during the brief, post-election session.
Although they believe the Treasury Department already has the authority to help, Democrats have proposed amending the agency's $700 billion rescue fund for financial services companies to include auto companies.
The White House adamantly opposes that approach, saying the fund is for businesses central to the financial system and for unfreezing credit markets.
The administration, and key Republicans like Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, support amending another law - one passed in September extending $25 billion in Energy Department loans to Detroit to help it retool factories and make more fuel efficient vehicles.

Thank you for finding your way here! EVEN MORE for your curiosity! You've arrived here for a reason... I bet it's a cool one! Our team is here to help + we want to hear about your project!
A majority of my clients come looking for work for their new project, often too late, to do something really unique. Weather it's your new home, garden, villa, or hotel... show me what your building or plan too!
The unique result for my work is getting involved at the ground level of your project, working in concert with your builders to architecturally, integrate works of art.
I have a long history of mixing antique and alternative photographic processes with cutting edge manufacturing techniques. My industrial design degree and my life time passion around art and photography is best put to test in this equation. The result is a truly unique and one of kind application that could be the soulful center point you didn't know you were missing.
Industrial Design is a focus on the duality between FORM and FUNCTION. How something looks vs. how something works. Typically a sensibility given to running shoes or automobiles. Functional Art being a category not well understood or considered. Your architect has hopefully been able to create the perfect form to house your life's functions. The distance however between an architects vision and the decorators can be oceans apart. There is a vast difference between design between design and photography too.
My work intentionally breaks the barriers between art, design, photography, and sculpture. I have a number of photographic works in clients sculpture collections, and many more towering glass sculptures encompassed various photographic collections around the world.
Art and architecture represents an infinite world of imagination; areas or moments where they can functionally and aesthetically come together and become one. Is not only incredibly unique, but beautiful in the way the ocean meets land. Waves of light, color, memory and materials that can make your dream truly envisioned and manifest in a way you might not have ever thought possible.
These functional art concepts are what I would like to propose to you. My art carries these ideals via the memory of photography and the ever expansive availability of modern materials. It is this goal that has set me apart from the framed photographers in my field and the industry focused on product designers and mass produced consumer photographs.
My hope is to find those of you out there who are building your lifelong dream. Looking for that centerpiece or solution to a focal point that defines you and who you are. A wall of illuminated forests cutting through your interior, or the fantasy of figures swimming beneath the oceans surfaces straight into your living room. This is the activation which I am most inspired and intrigued.
The best result of my art and that which excites me most, is to produce functional works that go well beyond what hangs on your wall.... but rather a piece that becomes your all, room divider, stairwell, or even ceiling. Perhaps freestanding in your garden, entrance or just bringing life to a corner otherwise lacking energy; each piece requires lighting and conduit installed specifically to it.
I take great pride in building "Hurricane-proof" artworks. Installations that have survived (so far) decades unprotected in the harshest of Caribbean destinations. Photography and Fine Arts are typically forbidden in any proximity to deconstructive powers of sunlight or weather of any kind. I see this as more of an opportunity, not a dilemma. Problems create solutions....and Art can be the ideal path of resolution to any area of design.
My hope is to connect with you and learn about who you are... and what your building. Ideally, before or while still in construction! Understanding your sensibilities and who you are is essential to understand how to complete your vision in a personal way that not only houses your life but reflects, mirrors, and narrates its purpose. Setting a stage for the memories it will most surely procure.
To receive a proposal of works and/or ideas: Submit your project, plans, or CAD renderings to me below and my team. We will look over and begin communicating with you to understand your interests and goals. Let us explore for you the universe of creative possibilities. Doing so will enable us to offer complex ideas and solutions that very possibly you have not considered. Come by my studio in Katama, MV or on Warren St. Hudson NY to see in person the possibilities. Thank you for your interest and we look forward to hearing from you.

We live in a world of convenience at every turn. Information and entertainment is available on demand. Thanks to streaming video and Connected TV, you can view the content you want when it fits in your schedule with the click a button or voice command. The landscape for viewing has changed immensely having not only an enormous effect on traditional television advertising, but also how marketers are adjusting their budget to accommodate the rapidly changing landscape.
With Connected TV users expected to exceed 190 million in 2019, the need to adapt to this growing platform as another vehicle to tell your story is becoming more imminent by the day. Digital video now accounts for an average of 25% of a daily video viewing for the average person, which is only projected to increase. However, many marketers are not adjusting their budget distribution accordingly and are missing a valuable opportunity to get in front of their target audience. Auto dealerships specifically have been one of the slowest adapters to this increase in video consumption, many of which are still spending 100% of their video advertising budget on traditional television versus digital video.
So what makes it different and why should dealerships care? Unlike cable ads, Connected TV (CTV) and video campaigns can be measured and optimized as part of your overall digital strategy. Ad effectiveness can be tracked by views, clicks and video completion rates (VCRs). This data enables more insight into the customer journey and car buying experience. In addition, the power of view-through data can help you attribute users who saw your ad and later took action to get more information or contact the dealership, furthering your ability to measure your return on investment.
Interested but don't know where to start? We have broken down the basics to help you better understand how video and Connected TV can help your dealership accelerate past traditional television and begin transforming your market presence.

Perforce Announces 2014 Predictions for Software Development
Key Points:
- With concerns of falling behind their competitors and learning from the challenged launch of the HealthCare.gov website, more companies will migrate to Continuous Delivery as the preferred method of software development and release
- The uncovering of the clandestine PRISM online surveillance program will lead to a surge of private clouds. More global organizations will use in-country public clouds, but the biggest growth will be in private clouds
- With every company becoming a software company to a degree, the work of developers will be recognized as the key to competitive differentiation in a broader span of industries
ALAMEDA, Calif. (Dec. 4, 2013) – Perforce Software today released its predictions for software development and deployment in 2014. The overarching theme of the predictions is the rise of Continuous Delivery – a design practice used to automate and speed up the process of software delivery – and the impact it will have beyond the technology industry.
"Software is no longer something only technology companies produce. Leaders in retail, household goods, aviation, healthcare, education and financial services are all relying on software to keep their organizations at the forefront of innovation," said Christopher Seiwald, founder and CEO of Perforce. "This has a profound impact on the people working for these organizations as well as industry standards in place today."
Perforce's predictions for the coming year include:
Continuous Delivery will become the new normal: Companies relying on software to stay in business won't risk a potential disaster by relying on big, annual releases only to find the requirements or the market has changed. Through the adoption of Continuous Delivery, software release cycles will become more frequent and problems will be spotted before they reach critical mass. With the practice gaining more traction, industry thought leaders will come to a consensus on specifically what Continuous Delivery entails and what it does not.
The coming of age of the private cloud: Global concerns stemming from the discovery of the PRISM online surveillance program will spur rapid adoption of private clouds around the world. New, in-country service providers will create solutions with enterprise-grade security built in from the ground-up.
King once and king to be: With software playing such a key role in organizations of all kinds, developers will become the most in-demand employees, and will drive rapid innovation through Continuous Delivery. As software delivery pipelines shrink to reduce the lag between concept and delivery, developers will assume more responsibility for quality, performance and operational monitoring.
"With adequate planning and preparation, forward-thinking organizations can begin the process of implementing Continuous Delivery ahead of their competitors to obtain or maintain industry leadership," said Seiwald. "We believe there are tremendous opportunities for companies to improve the quality of their products and their responsiveness to the market. We're excited to partner with the early adopters that the rest of the software industry will soon follow."

Healthy Homes Housecleaning provides house cleaning, laundry care, cooking, and related household services. When homeowners are absent we can provide plant care and a routine check of their house.
We strive to create a lifestyle change where the homeowner is given the opportunity to relax and enjoy their homes. For example one client is a mother of two young children and works full time. She is so appreciative that we clean her home routinely so she can invest her time with her children rather than spending time cleaning. She literally said we changed her life by providing housecleaning.

Bro's before ho's versus chicks before dicks (Monday)
Erika works on Janelle again while the guys work out in the backyard
She cites a lot of facts and common sense along with a lot of self-preservation tactics and finally seems to win out by telling Janelle that Will's called her a slut
Janelle finally agrees to the offered deal: Erika promises "on her mother" to throw the endurance comp to Janelle if Boogie bails first, if Janelle tosses out Will tomorrow instead of Erika.. bring on the inevitable yet wimpy BATTLE OF THE SEXES taglines
Willboogie get nervous because the girls are talking too long unattended.. Will attempts to remove his foot from his mouth.. inside he tries to shmooz as usual but Janelle's not having it, and goes back out to smoke some more with Erika
Boogie [to Will]: This is our fucking show and these bitches think they are gonna steal it from us
Janelle [with Willboogie]: She did say that you called me a slut
Boogie: That rhymes with 'she's got a lot of guts'
Erika's getting some satisfaction now, finally.. Janelle's having second (and third and fourth) thoughts.. Erika walks past Boogie, completely ignoring him, and he asks himself aloud if Janelle told her something he doesn't want her to know, and does this mean he has to be a nice guy now?.. Will & Janelle take showers and she keeps singing "Material Girl".. we get flames but she's still at it ten minutes later
Janelle: 'Some girls cry and some boys lie..' [cut to flames]
Janelle [10 minutes later]: I don't let them play (no way)..' [cut to flames]
Then Boogie does something that I don't get but obviously means something to them.. he peeks through the door - only Erika's inside - and says "This is my impression at the Universal Sheraton, July 1st: 'Yea Arnold, I do have somewhere to be' ".. he repeats it a couple more times too, face & limbs only thru the door.. a later version includes "Yea Arnold, I actually have a lot of other fucking places to be than this"
Arnold Shapiro is one of the executive producers.. whether he's replaying an Erika convo with him or his own or Will's, who knows? Interesting stuff nonetheless, and cuts to flames each time
Will attempts a Janelle check-in but it goes sour - she isn't playing along like she did 24 hours ago.. Boogie & Erika play some pool and it's also a bit tense - at one point she calls him Mike.. he notices and questions it.. Janelle studies the photos, like she does, maybe thinking she'd be having a lot more fun with them right now
Earlier today they stormed Diary as a foursome, demanding games or activities.. they got piggies poker or something, Chinese checkers and backgammon.. Will, Janelle & Erika settle down to play some and the camera crew goes nuts zooming in on GAMES and back to Will, then to the demon on the wall mural, back to Will, then back to the demon and Will again - THREE times!
Round two
They all bed down - Will & Janelle in the red room (redrum) again, Boogie in HOH and Erika in her platitudes room
Erika gets up first and night prowls around, like she does.. she goes back to bed and then Janelle's up and outside smoking.. Erika joins her and they compare more notes, in more detail
They finally realize they've both been offered split-the-money deals - Banana Bread for Janelle and The Big Picture for Erika, and both say they were told they're the "first female member of Chilltown" (Shannon apparently having been written off in the five years since CT version 1.0).. they each slap their foreheads and say what eejits they've been.. Janelle says she feels humiliated, and both agree the internet fans must be going nuts right now
Will wanders out too late and attempts to regroup with Janelle, but their whispery secrets have lost the touchy feely aspect that was such a big part of them.. Will goes for a very low blow when asking Erika about Alison's BB4 rep, pressuring her about how many HJs did she give and then kicked the guy out, saying "That's a true homance".. Erika doesn't respond.. Boogie sleeps thru all this
They eventually turn in.. Will chats a bit to Janelle but it's different now.. she finally asks about his girlfriend and he says "She's my best friend.. I can confide in her" which may be the truth that seals his fate.. they all sleep
We won't know for sure what happens til Tuesday's show - this is BB7 after all, and things flip a lot before Julie makes things official.. now that the editors have caught on to the Operation Double Date storyline they'll have some major last minute editing & Diaries to do now, which will be a scramble on busy live show day.. heh
While I'd like to see Will & Janelle as the Final 2 for fun last days of feeds, and for a very tough jury decision between two worthy but opposite game-style candidates, I didn't want to see it come about like it almost did.. at least if Janelle keeps Will tomorrow, she'll be doing it with her eyes open and not blinded by stardust
Give me a freaking break
Oops and gosh, now where has this section gone? Oh well - easy come, easy go
This part's still in place though: I've thrown in the towel, as announced a few days ago Hamsterwatch.com as it's existed since BB5 will cease when this season ends.. I'm tired of banging my head against this particular wall.. more on that when this mess gets wrapped up in a week
The last picture show (Sunday)
The last non-Julie, non-eviction recap show anyway.. I think tonight's show warrants feature placement since they've finally caught on to what's happening in there and are reporting it fairly accurately (who saw that coming?).. also a lot of folks will miss this ep since it's delayed til 2am in some areas, and there's not much going on in the house
We got a little piece of a Will & Janelle dual Diary but I don't think they ever aired the one replayed by Janelle awhile back, where she asked about Chilltown membership dues ("How about three alliance members?").. that's too bad, as it would have played well
This is definitely an anti-Erika show, citing "the Buxom Blonde & Dr. Delicious" opposite Erika's bikini crotch blurred out during one of her pounces on Boogie, and clips from the other night's downstairs HJ scene and her asking if it'll be shown on tv.. uhh yep
We get a replay of the HOH comp, which is a football theme - Boogie still thinks they're going to get a field trip to a game, but this was it - Erika's bad edit continues here, with her grumbling that there's nothing sexy about her referee outfit
Janelle hosts as she's ineligible to compete, and she says she's "standing in for Julie" by asking the questions.. it's a Guess The Day something happened in there, and one of my comments on yesterday's episode stands corrected now: one of the questions is which day was slop introduced - Janelle referred to it yesterday as Day 13 but she obviously knows it was Day 12 after having just covered it (so she's misleading them about what she knows).. Boogie wins, as we know
We get an Erika smoking bit that makes her look bad in a few ways.. text in number 2 for this week's $10,000 (remember to give me a cut when you win).. the bulk of the show revolves around the showmance, homance, flirtmance, fauxmance theme we've grown to love & hate
Boogie [after Will tells him he has to do Erika that night]: Of course, dude.. this is old school, bro
The show's focus is Boogie's stringing along Erika while she's seemingly really fallen for him in a big way.. we get more glimpses of their greenlight sessions that we didn't want to watch the first time, and their (bitter)sweet nothing whisperings.. they don't let on that Boogie & Erika have yet to consummate this thing in the traditional way, in spite of the cheesy porn music and accompanying (very intentional) phallic closeups
Boogie: People don't have this in their lives
Erika: I can't wait to get you out of this house
They make us attend the latest drunken hot tub party again, including Erika & Boogie's making a baby stuff - Erika in Diary says she'd like that and Will makes a comment about her bio clock ticking.. we get a bit of Will getting upset that his showmance with Janelle has "worked too well" with the glaring omission of him shouting at us that "the psycho blonde is ruining my life!".. we get Erika eavesdropping on Will & Janelle's makeup session and Boogie busting that up, followed up with her Diary saying she'll "teach our child spying lessons".. it's pretty sad stuff
The nominations are also sad - one key in the box looks pathetic, as does Boogie pretending to angst over whose to put in there.. yet another restaurant shirt hits the air, and Erika pretends to be surprised/upset at her nomination, referencing the BB credo "bro's before ho's" and that she'd hate that, and she'd hate going out third.. (oops, try fourth, again)
After this we have an eviction on Tuesday and start of the 3-part final HOH comp, another eviction Thursday, and the finale on the following Tuesday where they're going to cram recaps, jury questioning, welcoming back all the evictees and declaring a winner - all in one hour
I try to stay away from the derogatory nicknames, but there's no other way to describe Erika's day
They wake up late, Will & Janelle very late - around 5pm - Erika's in there visiting, enshrouded and glaring as they chatter
Janelle goes back for a deep cocoon for awhile before getting up.. Will's been asking for a haircut and we can really see why when his sleeve-dana's off - his hair is anarchy
They play some cards - Will & Janelle are chatty & friendly, right down to their footsies.. they go for their walkathon and chat about their doggies and other things.. Erika glares from the hot tub
Will tells Janelle about Boogie's drunken rampage night, how he peed into the apple juice jar but they thought he was living up to his threat of peeing in Howie's meds.. Will sugar-coats it all a bit in the telling though, saying Boogie said: "Who do they think they are? I'm gonna kill them" (both of those were aimed at Janelle).. he adds "They're gonna show it on YouTube, it's so funny" - yep, it's on there, but she might not find it so funny when she sees it.. Will's basically running damage control all day over what Erika has or might tell Janelle about - she's threatened to spill all
I still can't make new videos but it's always fun to review when this stuff comes up.. from Day 22 - warning, very explicit language:
What set off Boogie the finale of a few hours worth of stuff.. video by Aldav
Part of his rant two minutes worth out of lots of the same
"I will kill her" and assorted similar nasties
Peeing in the room into a bottle (not Howie's meds).. video by Attw x
(YouTube pulled this one.. scroll down and hit Free, then wait for download link)
Will's barber appointment arrives.. he's apprehensive and tries to direct but Janelle seems to know what she's doing.. he keeps up a running commentary - it's funny stuff
Will: What if I'm like Samson and my powers go away?
Will: Am I gonna have fly-backs like Farrah Fawcett?
Will: What's going on in the back?
Will: Why is it going up like that? It's like a roller coaster for lice
Will: Do I look like one of the Thompson Twins?
Will: Okay, think of however Nakomis would want it cut, and then do the opposite
It turns out Erika's there the whole time, glaring again/still.. naturally Will's not happy til he's touched it up himself
More wine, less hot tub
Evening booze delivery arrives, they head for the hot tub, and things are looking scary
For the most part, Will & Janelle are in one spot, chatting away happily.. Boogie's in another spot, and Erika in yet another - glaring
There's no end to the Will & Janelle touchy whispery secrets, and then more wine arrives.. hatches are battened down all over feedster land
Fortunately things don't get too bad out there and Will & Janelle head inside, where she tells him things that Boogie's told her that Erika's said.. she doesn't want to say what, as she doesn't want it to get back to Boogie but Will pressures her and she tells.. Boogie comes in (leaving Erika outside to glare alone) and Will spills to him what they're talking about.. together they reassure Janelle that Erika's history.. by the way, Will's been referring to Erika as Scrubika all day when talking to Janelle and/or Boogie
Willboogie go on to say they're definitely taking each other to Final 2 if possible, and are going to be horrid if they get there - they're going to be obnoxious, celebrate all over town, and will do their jury Q&A from the pool
Touchy whispery secrets continue through supper of chicken salad, which Boogie shakes up like he's mixing paint
They dish it up and all rave about it.. restaurateur Boogie's especially delighted and wonders why nobody thought of making salad before.. Erika spends lots of time alone outside, smoking & glaring.. Janelle shows off the evening's cookies
They play cards for a little while.. Will & especially Boogie focus on Janelle and ask her questions about "sponsors" etc but it's good-natured and complimentary this time.. Erika's clearly not pleased behind her evening shades, and doesn't make any secret of it
Will [later to Janelle]: I don't want to sit around with Erika & her glasses glaring at me
Will: She looks like an x-ray with hair
Erika startles Boogie in the shower and makes a show of peeking over the door at him, muttering something about his penis on tv.. he exits quickly and she goes in, making a show of needing a towel and showing her goodies as she grabs it.. I don't know, but the way he hands it to her seems to say something; his quick exit definitely does
Boogie hits the HOH bed and she follows (with her shirt pulled off her left shoulder, hmmm).. they share just a few smooches.. she asks how long his longest relationship was and he goes off on a long speech about his life and career and ends up saying "I know what I want in life, and I don't have to settle for less".. it's all really kinda sad, especially after tonight's show
Meanwhile the other two bed down in the red room (redrum) again, telling touchy whispery secrets for awhile before sleep, and discussing a bit of the day's events
Will: Here's the problem with her.. she just sucks
Glaring to foraging
Erika gets up soon after Boogie falls asleep, like she does most every night she starts out up there
She heads outside and starts knocking pool balls around, and talking to herself
She's definitely not a happy camper, as she asks [Big Brother and/or the air] for just one more chance.. she says things about Janelle being a shark, what kind of name is Boogie anyway? and she wishes Jack were there and wonders if he's watching, and so on
It continues as she sits down to smoke more of Janelle's cigs
The F2 camera operator jumps around picking up artistic shots & closups - empty wine glass and full ashtray, Erika's smoking hand as it bobs & weaves to punctuate her monologue, and her non-smoking hand placed just so.. it's great work that I recognize when he or she is on duty, and I've enjoyed it all season - thanks
She heads into the kitchen and starts foraging & eating in the dark: a turkey dog sandwich thingy, caramel corn, then into the pantry/conference room to stock up on Cups o' Noodles.. it might not be a binge technically speaking, but it sure looks like one
She mixes up one of the Cup o' Noodles, declares it disgusting, then takes a bite.. the bite goes back in the Cup o' and it all goes into the trash.. she finally heads off to sleep downstairs alone, again
Today's must-click special: Reviewing Will's pre-season interview
He's talked about this one often, but not this part: 'If I am in the final two I will pledge every penny of the prize money (after taxes of course) to charities determined by the evicted houseguests. I will sign the checks over on camera or take any means necessary to make it completely open and honest. I will also challenge the producers of the show, Les Moonves, and Julie Chen to match my contribution' from MediaFiends

"I don't know how to stop feeling lonely. I miss having her close to me. It feels so awful not to be sleeping in the same bed anymore."
"The sadness is just so overwhelming. I don't know how I'll ever get through this."
I hear comments like this so often in therapy. It is my privilege to sit with people who are suffering from hurt and pain, and it is my job to help. Following each of these statements there is often another question directed at me, "How do I stop feeling this way?" I get it. That's why you're here. You want the pain to stop. You want the life you knew before the pain back. The answer I give is often not what the person I'm sitting with wants to hear, but it so important that it be said.
"Feelings can't be stopped," I say. "Emotions come and they go. Best thing we can do is get to know them."
Truth be told, there were many years that I didn't like this answer. There are still times, many times, when I struggle with this notion. Why on earth would I want to feel bad? I have a clinical supervisor who likes to say, "bad isn't a feeling." Insert eye roll emoji here. He's right, I know "bad" isn't the name of a specific emotion. However, it is one of the main reasons I don't always want to feel the feels. Sometimes it feels bad to feel sad, or angry, or jealous, or guilty, or lonely. And frankly, sometimes I just don't have time for that. I'm a busy person, so sometimes getting to know my feelings takes a back seat to picking the kids up from gymnastics, cleaning the bathrooms or writing clinical notes. Glamorous life I lead, I know.
The wisdom of my supervisor's statement isn't because he's right aout bad not being a feeling, the wisdom lies in what pushing myself to identify and name the feeling does. It helps me get to know my emotions. With most things, the better you get to know them the less scary they become and the more comfortable it feels to have them around. Since I learned that emotions come and go and I don't have much say in the matter, I've decided to spend some time getting to know my feelings. I've become friends with them...well, maybe friends is too strong of a word for some of them. I've become accepting of them.
There are some feelings that have been easier for me to accept then others. Joy, for instance. Joy and I are best buddies! I thoroughly enjoy myself when joy shows up. Joy often involves laughter, especially my children's laughter. A lot of times there's music, sometimes dancing. People seem so much friendlier when joy is in town. I appreciate the beauty in the sunset more. I feel it in my body as a long, deep breath of clean air. Gosh, I really like joy.
Then there are other feelings that I'm not very fond of. Jealousy. That's one I could do without. It starts in my stomach like a slow ache, then it moves to a tightness in my chest. I'm not crazy about the thoughts that come with it either, and there's certainly not a lot of joy around when jealousy moves in. I have more trouble getting to know this one. It just feels so...icky.
When people come to therapy they are often trying to get rid of those unwanted feelings. I have yet to have someone come in, sit on my couch and say, "Kori, I am just so darn happy all the time. There just seems to be so much joy in my life. I feel like I must be missing something. Can you help me get rid of this happiness so I can have more room for other emotions in my life?" Who would pay me to get rid of their joy? That would be silly. But people come in all the time looking to get rid of all sorts of other emotions, and that makes sense because some emotions feel bad! Sometimes, they feel so bad that we can't get out of bed, or we drink too much, or we yell at our kids, or we cut ourselves. Those are the emotions you're talking about getting rid of, the ones that keep you from acting like you. The ones that hurt so much, that feel so bad, you're afraid they'll never leave. I get it. I get it so much.
People try all sorts of things to get rid of emotions that hurt. Distractions such as work or TV. They might try to cover up the feelings with food, or shopping or alcohol. People avoid situations that bring up those feelings. They may try to control feelings with thoughts or logic, or arguments. The problem with all of these strategies is that they are a temporary fix. The emotion wants to come and go, and it will get stuck if we don't let. Get stuck and wreak havoc on our emotional brain.
This reminds me of the children's book, We're Going on a Bear Hunt. In the book, a family is searching for a bear and they come upon challenge after challenge that they can't avoid; a swamp, a river, long wavy grass. The refrain of the book becomes, "We can't go under it, we can't go over it, we're going to have to go through it." The same can be said about feelings. The only way to get through them is to go through them.
To get through them, we have to trust our ability to make it to the other side. We must have a support system in our life that says, "You can do it. I know it's scary. I know it's hard, but I also know you got this." We need to increase our knowledge and comfort with our feelings so that they don't seem so big, so that they don't cloud out all the other feelings and sensations in our world. We can do this slowly through learning to notice what goes on in our body when various emotions are present, acknowledging and naming our emotions, and breathing techniques to make space for big emotions. This takes practice and intention.
For me, though, what has been the most helpful in learning this has been patience with myself. So many times I notice myself squashing that feeling or avoiding that difficult conversation so I don't have to feel "bad." I get down on myself, I mean I am a therapist after all! I should know how to feel! Then I remind myself of a few things. I am human. Feelings are hard. They come and they will go. And I can try again.
Allow me to remind you of the same. You are human. Feelings are hard. They come and they will go. And you can try again.

It is pouring rain today and promises to do so all day...so I visited my photo archives to see if I could find something worth looking at. These were all taken last Wednesday at Margaret's Garden in Herndon, Virginia. This endangered piece of heaven beckoned me last week to come discover all the shades of red I could see.
It is my hope that through my blog-friends at Ruby Tuesday, Margaret's Garden will receive a reprieve and if not, at least you will all have been blessed by photos of her lovely home.
Thank you to Work of the Poet for the Ruby Tuesday photo meme.

There I was, helping my mother in law onto the train. No, it was not the kind of gentle assistance that one normally extends to people of a certain age, the train had pulled into the station but not at the platform. The first step was at the height of her waist and she has had two hip replacements so her agility is somewhat impaired. With the best possible intentions and as politely as I could manage, I had to place my shoulder under her arse and push. The conductor had opted for the more sociable end and grasped her by the wrists to pull her and us other slightly more agile passengers up into the train. This glorious moment in my dutiful life as a daughter in law, was at Tyulkubas station near Shymkent and we were coming back from Aksu-Zhabagly nature reserve.
As avid gardeners four of us had been to see the home of the tulip. For those of you from this region it is normal, of course it is, it's what you grew up seeing, tulips in the wild. For me a tulip was a bulb that you buy in a garden centre, all the shapes and colours you can now get that add such beauty to the spring time garden. Tulips, they caused the first ever financial crisis and having lived through our own more recent one here, I was especially interested to go see them in their oldest habitat.
My friend and I had been planning and organizing our first adventure without the husbands and children in Kazakhstan, instead in our wisdom we were taking my mother in law and her mother. My Russian is still appalling but I had booked the guest house and felt confident about our itinerary. The only thing we could not get a clear answer on was, were the tulips in bloom or not. So travelling friend and I guesstimated and decided to go. A week before our appointed departure my husband returned from work and, in what he thought was a helpful manner and I took as a, showing off and inconsiderate manner, told me that according to a colleagues brother, all the tulips had already flowered and there was not much point in going. So after a meaningful marital row that started with the blooming times of wild flowers and ended with "I'm going to Shymkent and I may never come back". I was doubly determined to go find the wild tulip.
We arrived at our charming guest house in Zhabagly and went for a walk around the outskirts of the village. The sun was shining, the wind was blowing, but we were so excited to set off into the mountains the following day. After enjoying a carefully transported bottle of wine we sat watching the cowboys return the cows to the village after a day's grazing. I was so surprised to see the whole herd returning down the central street of the village and the that each cow with no prompting went into it's own house. Amazing! After a very filling supper of gretchka with a strange gelatinous meat… no way I could identify what animal it came from. We tucked ourselves up into bed to be well rested for the full day ahead. We had been promised a trip in the Uaz out into the reserve, so when we woke up, we were excited to set off. Our great adventure to see the famous tulips, which I truly hoped were still in flower, was about to begin. Well that was the itinerary, however the Uaz was broken. The other Uaz was broken too and no one could find a car that was permitted to go into the park! But it would be fixed for the next day. We even volunteered to ride on a tractor but that was not allowed…. so it had to be horses.
By this time the weather had turned, the glorious spring sunshine had gone behind rather dark clouds and as we were hoisted onto our trusty four legged friends the heavens had opened and the rain was coming down horizontally. We had barely made it out of the village and even the Kazakh horses were in revolt. So we turned back and dismounted. Soaking wet and dejected we went back to the guest house. Were we ever going to see a tulip? Never give up, as true Brits we borrowed some very unfashionable coats and set off on foot. Before we even got to the start of the mountains we were soaked through and not a tulip in sight. At the foot of the mountain a small hut with a ranger in it beckoned for a brief respite from the rain. We took refuge and great solace from the fact he assured us there were some of these now mythical flowers not too far away. So after a short rest we ventured out and set off into the mountains. Before long we saw a tulip then another, then another. A whole three tulips, large red beauties which we scrambled up the side of the mountain to take a look at. It was hardly the fields of wild flowers I had been imagining but we had at least seen some. I had started to loose hope completely and the last thing I wanted was for my husband to be proved right!!! Satisfied that we had at least seen the ever elusive Greig's Tulip we went back to the guest house, stuffed newspaper in our boots, pretended everything was wonderful. Cold and tired went to bed, hoping the Uaz had been fixed and our final day would be more a little more flower filled. To my immense relief we awoke the next day to sunshine. After breakfast my mother in law was especially eager to take a ride in the Uaz into the park. Of course the Uaz was still broken as was apparently every other vehicle permitted into the park. On the bright side, it was sunny. So off we went on the most amazing walk into the mountains to a waterfall. We enjoyed a picnic with breathtaking views into the valley and climbed a long way up the mountain to view a stunning waterfall. We met some very adventurous Russian tourists who had been camping and stuck out in the awful weather all night, however they were very nonchalant about it and made me feel like the townie that I am. But what we did see were tulips. Stunning big fat red tulips, growing in the wild with incongruously large garish blooms, dotted all over the mountainside. There were also small star shaped white beauties and yellow pink apparitions nodding their heads in the breeze. These native Kazakh jewels decorating the mountainside were a wonder to behold. Exhilarated we returned down the mountain ready to catch the train home to Almaty.
After the elegant arrival into the train carriage we found our beds which had been temporarily squatted by a rather smelly young man who politely moved out when we came in. A liberal spraying of Chanel No.5 instantly made our bunks much more agreeable as did the final bottle of well-travelled wine. We chatted to our fellow train companions and tucked ourselves up for the night. As we pulled into Almaty the next morning I was so pleased to be home. The warm shower when I got home was one of the best I've had for a long time. Putting on freshly ironed clothes and sitting down to a piping hot cappuccino is what coming home is all about. It was great to be back.
Every time I make the effort to get out of the city and see more of Kazakhstan I am so glad. I want to make memories. A simple picnic at the Illy river, or a trip to the petroglyphs at Tamgaly Tas can be as exciting as an all costuming tulip trip. We have world heritage sites on our doorstep and I love it. Getting out and about in the Kazakh countryside feeds the soul. The wide open spaces the crystal clear light these are very special places we have such easy access to. I am packing my suitcases for summer soon, however I look forward to unpacking them and packing up the car for an adventure closer to home.

I hope this Irish piano tune that I recorded put's you in a festive mood to celebrate St. Patrick's Day!
Twin Cities wedding and event pianist, Sharon Planer, loves the adventure of bringing events to life with her live piano music!
I hope this Irish piano tune that I recorded put's you in a festive mood to celebrate St. Patrick's Day!
Beautiful background music will provide an elegant musical atmosphere. Make sure you hire a pianist that knows how to keep the volume at the appropriate level to allow conversation. The acoustics of a room can change throughout an event depending upon the guest activity. Your pianist should be mindful of this when controlling the music volume.
Also important is the musical quality of the piano. Some venues have a grand piano on site. Make sure the venue has their piano on a regular tuning schedule. For best results the piano should be tuned just prior to your event. The expense of the tuning will likely be passed on to you.
If your pianist brings their own portable piano, you will want them to provide a good quality instrument. Equally important are the speakers they use. A beautiful piano can sound awful when amplified through cheap quality speakers.
For best results, hire an experienced pianist with a good reputation!
This weekend I performed after dinner music for an annual corporate event. The client that hired me explained that the last several years he has hired a band or DJ to provide after dinner music. The guests complained that the music was too loud and invasive. Since the guests only see each other once a year, they wanted the opportunity to visit with each other. I was delighted to be hired as their pianist. Many of the guests stopped by my piano and told me my music was the perfect touch!
I do not intend any offense to my band and DJ friends in the entertainment business. When you want to get your guests moving and on their feet there is nothing like a great band or DJ!
If you are planning an event and would like to learn how my solo piano music can enhance the experience of you and your guests with a beautiful musical ambiance, I would love to hear from you!
Did you experience excellent quality of service with particular wedding vendors when you planned your wedding?
If you are involved in wedding planning, have you worked with event professionals that wowed you with their personal attention to the client and the details of the event you were planning?

text: Chiyonosake013 4 Posted April 2 I was wanting to start using Publisher for documentation at work and would like to keep all of the generated documents looking the same even though 5-6 people will be creating them. What would everybody suggest be the best way to accomplish that? I realize there aren't tutorials yet. I created a few layouts as drag-drop assets, which will help some, but it'd still be nice to be able to have 3-4 different Master Pages that just acted like Templates that you could drag into place, then just edit the pictures or text that are on them. Does that make sense? Or does anybody have any good ideas on how to create something like this so that I could generate assembly/testing/shipping documents that all have the same formatting? I'd greatly appreciate any input Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your Housetraining Shopping List
While your puppy's mother and breeder are getting her started on good housetrain-ing habits, you'll need to do some shopping. If you have all the essentials in place before your dog arrives, it will be easier to help her learn the rules from day one.
Newspaper: The younger your puppy and larger her breed, the more newspapers you'll need. Newspaper is absorbent, abundant, cheap, and convenient.
Puddle Pads: If you prefer not to stockpile newspaper, a commercial alternative is puddle pads. These thick paper pads can be purchased under several trade names at pet supply stores. The pads have waterproof backing, so puppy urine doesn't seep through onto the floor. Their disadvantages are that they will cost you more than newspapers and that they contain plastics that are not biodegradable.
Poop Removal Tool: There are several types of poop removal tools available. Some are designed with a separate pan and rake, and others have the handles hinged like scissors. Some scoops need two hands for operation, while others are designed for one-handed use. Try out the different brands at your pet supply store. Put a handful of pebbles or dog kibble on the floor and then pick them up with each type of scoop to determine which works best for you.
Plastic Bags: When you take your dog outside your yard, you must pick up after her. Dog waste is unsightly, smelly, and can harbor disease. In many cities and towns, the law mandates dog owners clean up pet waste deposited on public ground. Picking up after your dog using a plastic bag scoop is simple. Just put your hand inside the bag, like a mitten, and then grab the droppings. Turn the bag inside out, tie the top, and that's that.
Crate: To housetrain a puppy, you will need some way to confine her when you're unable to supervise. A dog crate is a secure way to confine your dog for short periods during the day and to use as a comfortable bed at night. Crates come in wire mesh and in plastic. The wire ones are fold-able to store flat in a smaller space. The plastic ones are more cozy, draft-free, and quiet, and are approved for airline travel.
Baby Gates: Since you shouldn't crate a dog for more than an hour or two at a time during the day, baby gates are a good way to limit your dog's freedom in the house. Be sure the baby gates you use are safe. The old-fashioned wooden, expanding lattice type has seriously injured a number of children by collapsing and trapping a leg, arm, or neck. That type of gate can hurt a puppy, too, so use the modern grid type gates instead. You'll need more than one baby gate if you have several doorways to close off.
Exercise Pen: Portable exercise pens are great when you have a young pup or a small dog. These metal or plastic pens are made of rectangular panels that are hinged together. The pens are freestanding, sturdy, foldable, and can be carried like a suitcase. You could set one up in your kitchen as the pup's daytime corral, and then take it outdoors to contain your pup while you garden or just sit and enjoy the day.
Enzymatic Cleaner: All dogs make housetraining mistakes. Accept this and be ready for it by buying an enzymatic cleaner made especially for pet accidents. Dogs like to eliminate where they have done it before, and lingering smells lead them to those spots. Ordinary household cleaners may remove all the odors you can smell, but only an enzymatic cleaner will remove everything your dog can smell.

If you've found this page, either you or someone you know has a puppy that needs to be potty trained. Maybe you've tried a ton of various methods you've read about but have had no success. How can some people potty train their puppy with hardly any effort?
