Do not use your energy except for a cause more noble than yourself. Such a cause cannot be found except in Almighty God Himself: to preach the truth, to defend womanhood, to repel humiliation which your Creator has not imposed upon you, to help the oppressed. Anyone who uses his energy for the sake of the vanities of the world is like someone who exchanges gemstones for gravel. There is no nobility in anyone who lacks faith. The wise man knows that the only fitting price for his soul is a place in Paradise.Ibn Hazm
Of Love--may God exalt you! -the first part is jesting, and the last part is right earnestness. So majestic are its diverse aspects, they are too subtle to be described; their reality can only be apprehended by personal experience. Love is neither disapproved by Religion, nor prohibited by the Law; for every heart is in God's hands.Ibn Hazm
If you are proud of your descent from virtuous ancestors, how empty their virtue will leave your hands if you yourself are not virtuous. How little pride your ancestors will have in you in this world and the next if you do no good! All men are children of Adam whom Allah created by His own Hands, giving him paradise for a dwelling place and letting His angels bow down before him. But how little is the advantage from this since all the vices dwell in mankind and all the wicked impious people are among their number.Ibn Hazm
If there is someone in need whom you wish to help, whether the initiative came from him or from you, do no more than he expects of you, not what you might personally wish to do. If you overstep the mark, you will not deserve thanks, but blame from him and others and you will attract hostility, not friendship.Ibn Hazm
Two kinds of people live a life without care: one kind are extremely worthy of praise, the other kind are extremely worthy of criticism. The first are those who care nothing for the pleasures of the world and the second (i.e. those who are deserving of criticism) care nothing for haya or modesty.Ibn Hazm

There are many suspension mods like 7.3 powerstroke mods that you can make, but one is the incorporation of Traction or lift blocks with the traction bar that is great.
With the bar connected to the block and the U-Bolts running through blocks, this will ensure that there is no twisting and the leverage amplification from the higher block is removed by traction bar. This provides a soft ride and factory load capacity with higher ride height with no loss in connection, no loss of wheel travel and no noise transmission to a frame.

MINSK, 2 February (BelTA) – Parliament Speakers of Belarus and Pakistan will exchange visits in April-July, Chairman of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly of Belarus Vladimir Andreichenko said as he met with the Pakistani parliamentary delegation led by Senate Chairman Mian Raza Rabbani in Minsk on 2 February, BelTA has learned.
All the necessary conditions have been created for the two countries to develop full-fledged cooperation in the areas of interest, Vladimir Andreichenko said. "With a view to continuing the state and inter-parliamentary dialogue I am planning to make a visit to your country on 10-13 April, at the invitation of the Chairman of the National Assembly of the Parliament of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan Sardar Sadiq. Mr Sadiq also expressed his willingness to visit our country in July," Vladimir Andreichenko said.
According to him, the current level of trade between Russia and Pakistan does not match the existing potential. Vladimir Andreichenko believes that the two countries can increase the trade up to $1 billion by 2020. The MPs of the countries especially relevant committee should work harder to promote economically viable projects.
The Pakistani parliamentary delegation is in Belarus on a visit on 1-4 February.

The Woman In Black
A lovely, surprisingly effective and intelligent ghost movie starring Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter to you), Ciaran Hinds and the formidable Janet McTeer. This is a scary movie about unendurable grief. Radcliffe plays Arthur Kipps, a young widower lawyer who is sent by his firm somewhere to the marshy north of England to settle some defunct lady's estate. When he gets there, the villagers won't help him and horrible things start happening to children. Radcliffe is affecting in an almost silent performance as the young man.
Most scary movies have flimsy premises and are lazily written, rarely bothering with character. This film is an exception, with a solid screenplay, adapted from a novel, that sets and pays everything off beautifully. Director James Watkins relies a lot on slamming doors and pounding sound effects, but he does make you jump many times. He also sustains tension and suspense chillingly and, rare for the genre, has tremendous empathy for his characters. The Victorian atmosphere feels authentic, misty and cold, with scary looking windup toys, sinister dolls, and the terrible sight of innocent children destroying themselves. It's such a pleasure to watch a horror movie that looks beautiful, and not shot in cheap, apoplectic video, for a change. Watkins is stylish, restrained and wonderful with shocking apparitions. He also has a bit of a sense of humor.
The plot has a couple of excellent unexpected twists, and one of the reasons it works is because we are invested in the character, who for once, is not an idiot, but a susceptible young man in mourning, with a young child himself and therefore open to the apparitions of ghosts. I wish there was more of an intimation that perhaps all of these ghastly scares are happening only in his mind (this movie is very reminiscent both of The Innocents and The Others), and that he had more of an inner conflict, because once he becomes unafraid of the ghosts, we become a little less afraid ourselves. The story could go further and raise the stakes much higher, but it opts for more emotional grounding than just scares. Still, this is a mature, poignant film that truly sympathizes with unendurable grief, grief so monstrous that it wishes the worst kind of harm in those fortunate enough not to harbor it. More importantly, The Woman In Black delivers plenty of scares, which is all that matters in this kind of films, most of them extremely well earned (the audience kept tittering and laughing from sheer nerves), yet with a very touching aura of unfathomable sadness.

St. Anne's Park Walk
On Saturday 27 April we had reasonably good mixed weather for a walk in the park. St. Anne's Park in Clontarf, to be precise. Or Raheny, depending on your point of view. Local guide Gerard O'Rourke took us on a tour through the park and all it's significant points. Starting at the base of the former Guinness family home and visiting many other notable places and points, such as the pond with boat house, a historic well on the ground and many more. Gerard also brought us to the famous Tree of Life by artist Tommy Crags.
Gerard also had with him a folio of historic pictures of the house and ground, which allowed us get a great impression. After a total of 2 hours walking up and down the park, we concluded our walk in the Cafe at the Red Stables.
It was a thoroughly enjoyable and fascinating walk and tour.

On a beautiful warm and sunny day, we got a guided tour through the gardens, learning about it's general history as well as specific items such as the Viking house and garden, Rag trees, specific tree species and much more. One particular interesting piece of information we picked up relates to Austrian-British Philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951). A plaque in one of the glass houses informs us that he "Stayed in Dublin in the winter 1948-1949 and liked to sit and write at these steps".

1 big thing: 7 rough days
Another big Trump-Russia story fell apart today, with CNN forced to issue a big correction. It's the third Trump-Russia story to have issues in the past week, Axios' Shane Savitsky notes.
The details: CNN reported this morning that senior Trump campaign officials, including Trump himself, received an email from an unknown sender on September 4, 2016 that linked them to what could have been unreleased WikiLeaks documents. The Washington Post issued their own report later in the afternoon that the email was actually sent on September 14 — and linked to a trove of documents that WikiLeaks had publicly released a day earlier.
Two others over the past seven days:
- Michael Flynn's testimony: Last Friday, ABC News' Brian Ross reported that former national security advisor Michael Flynn was prepared to testify that President Trump, while still a candidate, directed him to contact Russian officials. But later in the day, the network issued a "clarification" that the direction came when Trump was president-elect. That changed the impact of the story entirely as it's a common occurrence for presidential transition teams to reach out to foreign governments.
- Deutsche Bank subpoena: Reuters and Bloomberg both reported on Tuesday that Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation had subpoenaed Deutsche Bank for information on accounts relating to President Trump and his family members — seemingly confirming that Mueller had expanded his probe to investigate the president's financial dealings. The WSJ defused that bombshell in a follow-up report stating that the subpoenas actually dealt with "people or entities close to Mr. Trump."
2. What you missed
- Dr. Nadia Schadlow, who currently works on strategy on the staff of National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster, is the likely successor to Dina Powell, deputy national security adviser for strategy. Meet her.
- A majority of President Trump's supporters (62%) can't think of anything Trump has done that they're unhappy with, according to a Pew Research poll.
- Beverly Young Nelson, who has accused Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore of sexually harassing her when she was 14 years old, told ABC News on Friday that she had written the date and location under Moore's infamous note and signature in her year book. The pic.
- 26% of startup founders say someone's "perceived or known political affiliation" would influence whether that person would be offered a job. Details.
- The U.S. economy added 228,000 new jobs in November, while the unemployment rate stayed firm at 4.1%, the Labor Department said Friday.

Giants & Pilgrims is a marriage of art & music.
Betony Coons is an artist. Tim Coons is a musician. As a married couple they create projects together.

Have you ever heard a voice that made you stop and pay attention? A voice that, no matter when and where you here it, you know who it is after only a word or two?
I love men with deep voices. They mesmerize me. Here are three of my favorites:
Sam Elliott (Roadhouse, Ram truck commercials)
Dennis Haysbert (The Allstate Guy)
James Earl Jones (Darth Vader voice, et al)
Who are your favorite voices? I know I'm picking on the guys, but are there any women's voices that draw you in and make you take notice?
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to watch these video's one more time. I think I wrote this blog just so I could listen to Sam, Dennis, and James over and over and over again. 🙂
Happy Wednesday, everyone!

Syrian Sources: President al-Assad to address the nation within coming two days…7-member committee formed to prepare for a national conference
The Italian "AKI" News Agency quoted reliable Syrian sources as saying that President Bashar al-Assad is to deliver a speech within the coming two days in which he will announce the formation of a seven-member committee in charge of preparing for holding a Syrian national conference aiming to find a solution for the crisis Syria has been experiencing for the past ten weeks.
The sources said that the committee will be led by Vice President Farouk al-Sharaa, while its membership will consist of two Baath Party Regional Leadership members, two National Progressive Front members, and three independent figures.
The committee's task is to prepare for holding a hoped-for national conference to which neutral and independent figures, who don't represent any political or opposition parties, will be invited.
According to the sources, the conference is to specify the shape of the forthcoming constitutional amendments in addition to the elections law, publications law, legislative elections law and other reform laws.
Therefore, the People's Assembly's elections, which were scheduled to be held within the coming few weeks, are expected to be postponed until the national conference concludes its deliberations.
Worth mentioning is that the legislative elections draft law has been completed and published on websites for discussion.

asddfasdf asked How does a thermostat in a refrigerator work?
Detailed please, but not too complex. It is for biology class- we have to talk about negative feedback So if you could please tell me how the thermostat works and how it controls the overall temp that would be amazing Thanks 🙂
And got the following answer:
It most probably uses a bimetallic strip to sense temperature, and closes a contact when the temperature goes above a set point. The closed contact turns on the compressor, which starts cooling the refrigerator. After a bit, the temperature goes low enough and the contact opens, turning off the compressor. This cycle continues. negative feedback, from the top of my head, is a process where an error signal is amplified and used to control a process that decreases the error. The error signal is the difference between the desired temperature and the actual temperature, which is sensed by the bimetallic strip and (amplified) used to control the compressor, which will decrease the error, ie, cool the frig. A bimetallic strip is a long thin strip consisting of two dissimilar metals soldered or riveted together, and wound into a coil. Since the two metals have different thermal expansion properties, as the temperature changes the coil winds tighter or unwinds. This causes to contacts to close or open, like a switch or relay. You can see one of these in most room thermostats.

10) Be inefficient. Make extra work for yourself. Take two trips to bring in all the groceries from the car, even if you can do it in one. When running errands, park as far away from each business as possible. Take the stairs instead of the elevator, even if you're carrying something. In short, be inefficient. "Being inefficient in this way can easily double your activity level and you'll be burning calories without even trying" (source: Fitness Rx; February 2004; page 96).
Exercise – This always goes hand in hand with diet when people talk about losing weight. The reason for that is because it is a very important part of losing weight. You don't have to do an intense workout.
There are many weight loss programs out there. If you are one of those who have tried many diet plans without much success then it is high time that you consider starting the Medifast weight loss program. What sets this diet program apart from the usual ones is the fact that it is created by a physician and also recommend highly by thousands of doctors all over the country.
This tip is really a critical one: Understand the difference between 'cheat' foods and 'junk' foods. Cheat foods have some nutritional value, so although we shouldn't eat them every day it's not the end of the world if we enjoy them from time to time. Junk foods, on the other hand, give us absolutely no benefit whatsoever. Again, we want you to make small changes that you can stick with for life. You don't have to give up the occasional 'cheat food' treat – just try to eliminate all the 'junk food'.
I read a lot of books on dieting as a part of my ongoing education. I always laugh when i find those that require you to make a part time job out of meal preparation and trips to the health food store three or four times a week. Who has the time and the energy to keep that up?
Be sure to eat a whole lot of healthy food before leaving to attend an event or gathering. Doing this will fill you up early and hinder you from to be able to over eat snacks and sweets at a party. It's a good idea to sip on a few wine, instead of sipping a beer or blended drink.
Weight has become a problem among as how best can we loose weight and still have a quench of the taste? Losing weight has become a home work for a lot of people. How can we live normal lives and not worry about our weights?
Probably the least complicated but most effective, running and jogging is an all round cardio workout, that doesn't need a fancy gym membership to get you started. A well fitting pair of shoes, and you're good to go. If you're new to running, start up slow, and keep at it, increasing the duration gradually but surely.

For many of us, the end of the year holiday season is the prime shopping season, so let's spend a few blog posts on "spending our money" wisely. Let's start with some tips to get ready for Black Friday and Cyber Monday after Thanksgiving Thursday. This is a great time to save whether on holiday gifts, goodies for yourself, or household needs.
Get Ready for Black Friday – Research
You can just browse the ads for your favorite retailers and I admit this is sometimes how I get gift ideas, but this could cause you to spend more on items you don't really need. Getting ready for Black Friday is easier when you get prepared. It's easier to stay focused when you start with a list. Even gift shopping could be easier if you can list a few possibilities, or at least general categories for each person on your list. Next pick the retailors that will most likely help with your listed items. Before you start shopping, do some research so you know when you see a good deal. Don't be fooled just because you see a "30% Off" sign; know what the full price, typical price, and really good sale price actually is at a variety of stores. Even when you buy something online, you can still check the online customer reviews. Regardless where I purchase something, I still tend to check Amazon's user reviews (and price) first for any major product.
Get Ready for Black Friday – Shop
Now with your solid preparation, you are ready to shop and avoid paying full price. Next do some comparison shopping. Many retailers post their Black Friday ads in advance. Thus, you can investigate who has what you need and compare prices between several retailers, both "brick and mortar" and online. Some websites offer previews of multiple Black Friday sales and ads like one of my favorites, www.dealnews.com.
Decide which items you need to go to a store and shop for with several hundred of your neighbors and which you can get online with potentially less time, hassle, and crowds. I'm leery of those really good advertised specials that seem to be out-of-stock when you get there, which is another reason I personally like online deals; at least I'll now instantly if they are out of something. On the other hand, there is something special about seeing something before you hand over your money, and then walk thru the store carrying your treasures. Remember to factor in the shipping costs and potential returns hassle when comparing stores versus online.
Not many Black Friday retailers have coupons; check your newspaper (that thing that gets printed and delivered in some people's yards every week or even every day). You can use your loyalty reward cards to get discounts or reward points, like the TARGET REDCard that gets you 5% discounts or SEARS/KMART "Shop your way" points. Don't forget the small retailers in your area that can trade the huge crowds for the personal touch you may enjoy. American Express will give you more reward points on "Small Business Saturday". When you shop online, remember to check for promo codes, online comparison websites, and cash back websites like www.ebates.com.
Of course there is an app for that, but avoid the many apps that just slap "black Friday" on the name to get your attention. Here are two useful apps:
- Black Friday app – from Slickdeals
- Black Friday 2016 – Great for searching for specific items and retailers
Don't get carried away during this shopping season or I might have to resurrect my blog posts about dealing with debt and credit cards.

Guide part 11
Walkthrough - Eastern Front
Stage - Airfield Ambush
|(Left) Get more allies by heading to the trainyard when you begin. (Right) Ju-52 transports are in hangars and out in the open. Be sure to look everywhere and refer to your HUD if you cannot find all nine of them.
The base raid continues, but the wily Wehrmacht has eluded you by retreating most of its troops on Ju-52 transports. Blow up watchtowers using the tank gun to kill the enemy within. Cross over into the train station and into the hangar area. You will need to destroy ten of the Ju-52s before moving on. Check the hangars for transport planes and destroy them. Some of the planes are in the open, but some are stashed inside the hangars (where you'd expect them to be). Check those buildings and clean up before moving on.
|(Left) The main runway is best not travelled or the Ju-52s taking off will kill your tank instantly. Instead keep to the trench on the right or near the hangar buildings on the left. (Right) Dismount at the north end of the runway and assault the control tower using old fashioned infantry.
Stop the enemy by heading for their runway while fighting off tanks and panzershrek soldiers. Head through the warehouse and avoid the planes taking off while moving down the runway destroying all the junk in your path. rach the end of the runway and destroy all the planes to get a new objective that requires you to leave your tank.
|(Left) This shot at the control tower MG42 is dangerous even with a Kar98 -- you can try taking it out from the trench since you will be less noticeable there. (Right) Head for the radar dish where a supply truck with a panzershrek is parked. Make a dasah for the truck when you think it is clear.
Park the tank and head up the road to the control tower slowly. Grab an MP40 if you can, but with two MG42s hosing the road from the control tower, you'll probably want to stay to the sides as much as possible. You may want to take a Kar98 and stick to the left side to take out the MG42 on the tower before crossing the road to the right to pick up a panzershrek from the back of a supply truck to take out the MG42 on the half-track. Heading into the trench to the supply truck without taking out the MG42 on the tower will probably get you killed.
|(Left) Blasting that half-track is tricky since you only have two shots (one on Hard). Make the best of it or die trying. (Right) Clear the control tower and take this manila folder to Russian High Command.
Once both MG42s are silenced, get back into the habit of the MP40 and PPHs41 for the final assault on the control tower. With luck, you may have some grenades around. Use them to clear each of the floors of enemies before moving onwards and upwards. All enemies in the control tower must be killed before you can do a thorough search for vital documents. Head to the bright control panel on the second floor and look for a manila file folder you can take. Do so and the mission will end.

One Monday morning in August 1877, the atmosphere at Littledean Police Court was lightened considerably by the appearance of two "respectable-looking" married women, Sabrina Cole and Susan Phelps, who were accused of assaulting a Lydbrook grocer by pouring tar over him, then pelting him with clods of turf. Another woman, Maria Phelps, was also charged, but did not appear in court. The case was, according to The Citizen newspaper, "of a most amusing character".
The complainant, James Cook, worked for the Lydbrook Store Company, and would go round houses to take orders and collect money for goods which had been bought on account. He had become unpopular with the local housewives through persuading them to buy groceries on credit, then demanding payment soon after the goods had been received.
On 23 July, Cook had gone out on his rounds as usual, and while he was inside the house of his second customer, he heard two of the defendants calling in a hostile manner for him to come out. He went to the gate and persuaded them to go away, but while he was visiting his next customer, an invalid who was lying in bed in a downstairs room, the three accused women came inside and caught hold of him. As they tried to drag Cook outside, he clung onto the bedpost, much to the consternation of the poor lady in the bed. The description of this scene caused outbursts of laughter in the courtroom.
After a struggle, the women got Cook outside, where he was met by a small crowd, one of whom was a boy holding a kettle containing cold tar. One of the Phelps women dipped a brush into the tar and gave Cook a good coating. The other Mrs Phelps then poured the remaining contents of the kettle over his head. To finish, a tar-covered rag was tied round his neck. As he left the scene as quickly as he was able, the women and some boys pelted him with turfs and – according to Cook – with stones.
Sabrina Cole, who had helped to drag the grocer outside, but hadn't taken part in the tarring, was fined five shillings and costs, while the two Phelps women each had to pay ten shillings and costs. The court also awarded Cook damages of 30 shillings for his ruined clothes, the payment of which was to be shared between the three defendants.
The newspaper reports on the case ended with the women being led away, protesting at their treatment, while their husbands stepped forward to pay their fines. However, it transpired later that one of the men, George Cole, refused to pay, and as a consequence, his wife was sent to Gloucester prison. A few weeks later, Sabrina Cole found herself in court again, this time on a charge of attempting to poison her husband. This part of the story is told in my next post, Poison in the Pepper Box.

New owner to take over Aiden O'Reilly's in Allenton
May 9, 2018 – Allenton, WI – It's still a couple weeks away yet but watch for Mark Merten, 56, to take over Aiden O' Reilly's in Allenton.
Merten, a native of Slinger and 1980 graduate of Slinger High School, said he was looking for something new and found it in the bar/restaurant, 402 Main Street, in Allenton.
"I like the woodwork in the place and the back bar reminds me of an old soda bar from the 1800s," said Merten.
While O'Reilly's has the atmosphere of an Irish-pub, Merten said that can easily be changed.
"We're going to call it Slippery Rail," said Merten. "We were thinking about The Whistle Stop but we were looking at the LLC list and there is already a campground with dib's on that. My wife started looking at old railroad terms and the Slippery Rail seemed to stick; the names got a nice kick."
Merten grew up in the food business. He spoke fondly about his memories of working alongside Joe and LuAnne Schwai when they ran Schwai's in Cedar Creek.
"I'd help them butcher deer and run the restaurant," he said. "When the County Fair was still in Slinger I'd work with them at their booth. I know Tommy and Mike well and I worked with LuAnne and Joe and the sunshine thing and all that."
Merten's mind raced with memories of Schwai's and the old country store with cases of beer, people coming in on the weekends, the meat counter, and the old terrazzo floor.
"I really missed all that and that's what I liked about this restaurant/bar is the big back bar, the décor, the changes made since the fire, the upstairs hall is nice; there's a lot of quality in this old building it's nice to see it maintained," he said.
Along with the name change Merten said he will be adding real broasted chicken by Trademark and once he's situated he'll explore adding take out to the menu.
"The big thing is I want to maintain the current customer base and keep everybody happy," he said.
Merten expects to close on the deal with owner Mike Duchelle on May 29.
On a history note: The brick building that sits to the east of the Canadian National Railway dates to 1912. It used to be the old Central Hotel. Over the years the name changed to Side Track and later Grand Central Station.

When you realize you're boring even yourself, perhaps it's time to re-group.
So in the meantime, I'm going to do what I do when I can't think of anything worth sharing ..... answer comment questions, and hope inspiration strikes soon, before I'm forced to resort to sharing old naked baby photos of myself.
NES asks: Forgive a stupid question - what's a crop?
A "crop" is the term for when a group of scrapbookers get together and work on their albums for any length of time. Sometimes synonymous with "scrap", but not always. For example, you can "scrap" or "crop" with friends; you can "scrap" or "crop" pages for your albums; you can attend a "crop", but you can't attend a "scrap". Hmmm. Wonder if either of those terms are in Websters yet ....
Dto3 asks: Better yet, what's WOOT!?
As far as *I* know, it's a term used when a person is excited about something, like a cheer. Think of Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman, when she so un-lady-like-ly rooted for a particular horse at the races by rotating her clenched fist in the air in circles, yelling, "Woot! Woot!". You can always go to Urban Dictionary if you need to double-check, because Lord knows I could be wrong.
Stefunk asks: Are you pregnant??
I don't even remember what on earth this was regarding, but I can answer with a resounding "Hell to the no".
Anonymous says: Ok.....I am clueless. What on earth is trash can punch?
OK, anonymous, I know you're only staying anonymous because you don't want your friends and family to know you're soliciting the recipe for trash can punch, you lush, you. Although, I thought drinking trash can punch was a rite of passage in middle America..... no? Not so much? Well, it's basically a ghastly concoction of fruit punch and alcohol --- typically everclear, vodka, or rum. In a nutshell, it's disgusting. I think it's called "trash can" punch because you normally mix it up in large quantities to serve at parties. Or at least you DID, before all the women of the world had to be suspicious of drinking anything prepared by strangers at a party.
However, if you're looking for a much more festive way to deliver a trash-can punch-type drink, do what we used to do (Mom, close your eyes.....) Buy a large watermelon. Cut a small hole in it. Buy one bottle of everclear or vodka, take the cap off, and insert neck of bottle upside down into the hole. Let sit for 24 hours. The booze will soak into the watermelon .... slice and serve at your next party. Viola!! It's the red neck way to get your liquor and vitamin C, all in one package!! Yee-ha!
And now, the fact that I've been able to type two very long paragraphs about trashcan punch and watermelon vodka leads me to my next blog post, titled "The time I checked into rehab".
Alison states: Also, "The Secret Life of Bees"--do you plan on seeing the movie once you finish reading? I loved that book, but have yet to see the movie.
Alison, I actually rented it a few weeks ago with Brayden, when we had a Mommy-and-Me movie night at home. We both enjoyed it very much.
Lisa L asks: Thank you!!! But just one question re: the meatballs...sweet chili sauce, or regular (hot) chili sauce? :)
Um, I'm assuming this is in reference to my crockpot meatball recipe. Clearly I should answer questions in a more timely fashion so I would know these things. Its definitely sweet chili sauce..... nobody in our house does spicy because we are all a bunch of weenies.
Gina gave a very helpful explanation regarding brain tumors and ended with: I hope that makes sense and I didn't confuse you any more...my intentions are good.
Gina, I don't know that I ever got around to saying thank you to you for this information. It made perfect sense and helped me to understand more clearly exactly what the doctors were saying. So, thank you.
Lollyblogger mentions: Third, Have you and Blaine ever thought about making a road trip to MD Anderson in Houston? He seems like a unique case that they would have interest in, and they are the BEST in the world. My husband did his surgical fellowship there, and it's quite a place.
Lollyblogger, Blaine has never been to MD Anderson for an oncology consult, but the Air Force did send him there back when we were researching his options for reconstructive surgery. (Right after they sent him to the breast reconstruction doctor at Emory and I made jokes about him winding up with a big nipple on his head.) As luck would have it, he flew to Texas for a consultation, and the doctor he was to see had a wife who went into labor the day of Blaine's appointment. So while it appears for now things are being handled well locally (and how fabulous it is that he no longer has to travel five hours round trip for every single doctor's visit!) it's good to know the Air Force would consider MD Anderson again if need be. But selfishly, I'm crossing my fingers there is no "need be".
Bridget from Canada wants to know: ..Just out of curiosity who is taking these SPT someone in the family or a timer? Cause they have all been really good.
Bridget, thanks. A few have been me with a timer, but my camera is too heavy for me to hold up with one little dainty butterfly hand. Plus I don't have the coordination to turn the zoom lens, hit the auto-focus button, then press and release the shutter all with one hand. I've borrowed Brayden's little point and shoot a few times, but most of the photos have been taken by my kids.
And for the record, I *did* last week's SPT "Gift a Friend" In fact, I wrote up this great (well, in my own mind, anyway) post about being a princess, growing up in an all-prince world, and how even princesses have to kiss a lot of friendship frogs before they find other princess friends they really and truly connect with. I have a group of them, sadly, scattered all over the country, and one of them turned 29 (ahem) last week and I gifted her with a drive to Dallas to take her out for brunch for her birthday. (And I gifted her with the coolest pink peace-sign purse, too, but since we're not supposed to spend money of our gifts, I guess that part of the visit is ineligible.) Anyway, I felt weird posting something the day after I got news of Thalon's passing, then just a few days later the friend I wrote about in the post lost her father in law very unexpectedly, and I felt weird posting about her, too.
So in a nutshell, the point of the post is ladies, if you have one or two or five or ten friends who you can really, truly count on in a pinch, who make you laugh and listen to you bitch and care about your family and cheer for you all the same, hang on to them. For dear life. Because the older I get, and the more I've traveled around the country with Blaine, the more I'm learning that there are some psycho FREAKS out there to be avoided at all costs, and true friends are to be cherished.

Oh how I wish I could remember why I asked if you were pregnant! Might have to spend some more time on my butt here on the couch and figure that one out!
Kristie.....please dont feel like you "have" to blog on any regular basis. Just blog when you have something to blog about or the mood hits you. We know that blog worthy things dont happen everyday or that you have time everyday so dont worry. I think its contributing to your writer's "block". Just keep writing when you want to or feel inspired to. I couldn't stand the thought of not keeping up with you and your family so dont stop under any circumstances!! That's an order! lol I know I enjoy your everyday "boring" to you life but dont we all have that at times? Anyway, dont pressure yourself and just blog when you want to blog!!
- Sue G said...
Well, for a "boring" blog entry that was pretty interesting, informative, and entertaining (or should I spell that intertaining to go with the i-i-i run I had going?)!
That said, now that I know you believe nothing much is going on in your life to write about, I understand the Adam Lambert love interest much better.
To mimic Kara Di whatever her name is, he is definitely an artist. But I would rather see him captured on canvas than running amuk in a recording studio.
Anyway, I digress. Keep writing about nothing. You'd be surprised how much your nothing beats most people's something.
- vgsmom said...
I love what and how you blog...so blog whatever...even just to clear your head, or wait til the spirit moves.
- Cozyflier said...
I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets writers block!!
You still make an interesting blog!
- Random said...
Just so you know, nothing you've blogged has ever been boring - and your children are bright and funny enough to keep all of us entertained on a regular basis. (Probably because we don't have to put up with the aspects of having them that only a parent would encounter...)
Don't feel like you ever have to blog (after all, what good is your blog if you aren't enjoying it?), but know that we love your posts when you do!
- Sandie said...
We called trash can punch a "Wopit too eee" or a Wop for short. The scary part was always at the end when the color was brown and nasty!
- Lissy said...
ahhh around here we call trashcan juice "jungle juice" and if you're feeling really alkie, you throw beer into it (usually natty light) and call it "man juice"
although trashcan juice is probably the most accurate thing it's ever been called!
never thought about watermelon...we used to soak gummy bears in vodka or everclear though...
- Melissa said...
We used to call it 'hunch punch' and it was made with Everclear and fruit punch. You couldn't taste the alcohol, but after a few swigs it would hit you like a bus...
- Lucy and Ethel said...
I don't think you're giving yourself nearly enough credit for your blog!!!
I agree with Bonita in Az that you shouldn't feel obligated to do it every day; goodness knows you have just a few other things going on. If you feel you have to do something, bring back old posts or something easy. We newcomers wouldn't mind :)
- Becky Smith said...
Even your "boring" stuff is interesting. Believe me!
Becky Smith
The watermelon was a great way to "sneak" liquor into the Ky Derby infield back in the day!!
Love your blog.
Your drink is called Hunch Punch in the south.....
I still like your blog. Please don't think about stopping.
Lisa C.
I always enjoy your blog. As a mom of 4 kids around your kids' ages, I just enjoy comparing notes, seeing where we have similarities/how you handle things, what your kiddos are doing in school, etc. My favorite Kristie posts are just the ordinary every day ones about being a mom of 3. Guess it is the sociologist in me, lol.
By the way...I heard a new song on the radio the other day called "Kristie are you doing OK" (By the Offspring) and thought of you, since you are the only "Kristie I know". My song would be called "Rita says please take the pins out of the voodoo doll, she has been punished enough and needs some peace!"
- Alisa said...
i am laughing and hoping I dont fall into the "psycho freak" category- and that I grow into the friend category!
Love your writing- whenever and whatever it is about-
- The Running Girl said...
Ahhh, the mention of trash can punch brought back some memories. Well, some memories of not having any memories!
And I couldn't agree with you more about holding on to dear friends. They are few and far between.
Kristie, your blog never bores me. Please keep writing when you can.
- raino said...
although i understand the feeling of pressure to post something for the world to read, i don't REALLY. this is your blog, you make the time table.
i kinda think that absence make the reader grow fonder....
enjoy YOUR blog.
Yes and Amen! Cherish all your friends because one day when you're not paying attention one may die of ovarian cancer very quickly and one may die of altitude sickness while climbing mountains in South America and when it happens a few weeks apart, you'll wish you'd never taken for granted the notion that'd you grow old together.
It's OK if you want to take breaks, but just don't disappear on us. I like hearing about your "boring" life because to me, it isn't.
- Lisa L said...
Your blog has nevah, evah, been boring to me. You are freakin hilarious and I love your intellect and humor. Keep on girl!
- Estrelleta said...
I agree with what everyone else is saying. I find your blog very entertaining even on days like this, when you may not feel you have much to blog about. If you need to, take a break (not too long, though!).
I'll have you know, though, that I have a google reader and on any day I may have 150 unread posts when I open it. If there is a new post from you, it is always the first one that I open. That is how much I enjoy it!
Wow. I'm still laughing at the Easter Bunny picture.
- Lollyblogger said...
Here's to hoping Blaine doesn't have to take a trip to Houston ever again. Maybe God induced that labor to say "Hey there! No need to come to Houston! Unless you want to go to Goode & Co for some pecan pie."
And please don't stop blogging. Some of my favorite posts have been the simplest ones. I loved seeing what was in your pantry. Or hearing about grocery shopping. Or seeing closets turned into bedrooms. Of course, mutant Easter Bunnies are always good for a laugh.
Take good care---
- lynne said...
For the record you never bore me and I think you'd be an awesome person to meet in real life.
- oneordinaryday said...
Just found your blog and have been enjoying it very much. Feels like we're talking across the kitchen table.

By Emma & Ava
Early in the morning, we took a seven-hour bus ride from Boudha to Pokhara to get to the 3 Sisters Trekking Company guesthouse. 3 Sisters is an all female-run trekking company that empowers young women and works hard to make trekking significantly safer for women travelers. On our first night, we were welcomed with lots of food (dal bhat, obviously), fun, and laughter while we got to know our guides for our upcoming five-day trek.
The first day of our trek was pretty easy going, not many leeches (YET) and we all enjoyed ourselves (especially Emma who rode up in style from the hospital in a jeep). Once we were all reunited at our first guesthouse, we celebrated Soph's 20th birthday by playing cards, eating LOTS of snacks, and having a full-on dance party with our host and assistants. Our host had some seriously deadly dance moves that would put Michael Jackson to shame.
The second day was when the leeches first hit us as we hiked uphill through the pouring rain. They were SAVAGE. (disclaimer: leeches only suck your blood for a hot second then fall off, they don't carry any diseases and their bites don't hurt.) Luckily, our trekking guides were very helpful with removing our leeches while we walked.
The rest of the trek was absolutely beautiful as we walked through villages, rhododendron forests, jungle, and waterfalls. We passed the time by chatting, playing games, and listening to Ava's scary stories. We even got to see some monkeys! On the last day, Soph had a 101-degree fever and this time SHE got the royal Jeep ride, (but don't worry she was a-okay by the time we got back to the guesthouse). After we finished the trek, we returned to the 3 Sister Guesthouse and were welcomed home with laundry and full body massages!!! For dinner, we had dal bhat (dal bhat power; 24 hours) and of course wrapped up the night with a dance party, as is Tara tradition.
We can't thank 3 Sisters Trekking Company enough for keeping us safe and entertained on our journey through the Himalayas. We look forward to our remaining time in the ancient city of Bhaktapur as our journey in Nepal comes to an end 🙁
TTYL!!!! ( Talk to ya leeches)

How a 3D game differs from a 2D game?
2D games have been around us since the inception of the games while 3D games started developing as early in the eighties, but the mid 90's actually saw the real revolution in the 3D games development.2D games are as different from 3D games as chalk and cheese. The soul of the game is the same, but the experience differs massively.
2D and 3D refer to the tangible dimensions rendering in the game world. 2D is flat with only two dimensions while 3D has three dimensions allowing an object to have volume and depth. If I were to say it figuratively, 2D is like a painting while 3D is like a sculpture.
2D Game follows the linear movement. You can move the character in different directions, but finally you are taking the character forward to an ending point. The character progression is done with changing of the entire screen. Like in the ever popular, 2D Mario Bros, Mr. Mario keeps moving forward to reach the princess.
On the other hand, 3D games allow the player to go deeper and nearer to the screen. Since the landscape has more volume and depth, a player can move in different environments without changing the screen. The movement is unrestricted and free. Like the GTA: Vice City, allows the character to roam freely in different worlds.
But since the 2D games are simpler they are easier to follow and understand than its counterpart. They don't come with huge tutorials and you can just log in and start enjoying the game. However the free movements make 3D games exciting and enthralling.
Physical world environment
2D environment is flat in dimensions having a single layer. It provides a single plane where the character moves and interacts. Owing to its flat dimension it is not able to paint a real picture of the world you are interacting where the landscape remains uniform and palette feels the same.
3D world has more layers and penetration. Because of this, a 3D world is visually beautiful; captivating and mesmerizing.3D world captures the real world in its entirety making the landscape engrossing and absorbing. It lets you fancy a completely fictional world which is so above what you can ever think and imagine. Because the 3D world is dynamic, it lets the player interact in the manner he wants to perceive.
In the linear world of the 2D, a player generally strides on a single one way to reach its destination. A 3D world offers more stimulating experience to us. Sometimes we can just wander about to discover new places, spend some time to appreciate the marvels, discover hidden paths and uncover buried treasures. Like the GTA series totally lets you get mystified in its amazing world.
Due to the complexities involved in the production of the 3D games, the production cost and time taken is much higher than 2D games. The data structures, art assets, physics, animations, volume of data, are much more complex and grueling than a 2D game. While designing a 3D world, you will have to rethink and recheck for every bug that your physical world can have. Because even a single bug in the level physics can make a character stranded or go amiss in the world.
2D Games are kicking and alive because its production cost is very less. With the current hardware assets and creative talent available, it has become easy to transform a radical idea into an exciting 2Dgame.
3D games have astounding graphics making it visually appealing. The art design department consists of several visual artists, lighting artists, animators, texture and level artists, 3D modellers and many more. With 2D games, artists are given a flat palette to fill with backdrops and sprites, but in 3D world the artists have to co-ordinate constantly and carefully to balance out all the textures, animations and lighting.
It seems on the surface that 2D games have lost its place. But is it really so? Consider the most popular game of this decade, Angry Birds. Its 2D, it's Famous, and it is Fantabulous. Do we really need some high end graphics to make a game successful? All we need is an engaging gameplay to connect with the game. Graphics and everything can come and go, but if the game's characters, its game play, its replay value is impressive, it shall surely make a success.
On, the other hand, 3D games offer more genres, much longer games with exceptional scale. Even the minutest details get the in-depth attention, and overall the game looks so much cooler. Who could have imagined 10 years back that you can actually make a game so immersive that you can feel it is absorbing you in the fiction world of its own. And how we love this feeling of guns blazing over our head, the way our heart skips a beat when a monster jumps over, or how we jump over the seats to defend from the evil desperadoes!!
In a nutshell, 2D games are like radios, they are old, but they are reinventing themselves to face new age 3D games while 3D games are going to the game changers of the industry, pushing the whole industry to create better, bigger, bolder games.

Sorry guys, I've kind of neglected my blog for a while – but for good reason! I've been busy this summer, traveling (visited Taiwan and Vietnam, as well as Toronto and Quebec — which I must add, had amazing food), and also had been busy working and taking on more hours – I found out I'll be going to Madrid next month for a conference, so much preparation will be needed. As well, I had to complete some new applications for programs. May aim for a PhD or MD. We'll see what happens! Continue reading Godamba Roti

Sri Lankan Pasties
I love small hand held appetizers/pastries. Growing up, this particular pastry was made for special occasions, or really when my mom really felt like it.
Sri Lankan Spiced Custard
I'll admit, growing up I did not like this dessert compared to the (then) superior caramel pudding (which is a Sri Lankan upside-down version of a caramel flan). But now, I find that it is too sweet, and this spiced custard is where it's at. And hello? Cardamom and nutmeg – some of my favourite spices!
Cashew Curry
(Apologies again for no photo!)
Does cooking cashews in curry form sound strange to you? Believe me when I say that it is not strange. This is a popular curry in Sri Lanka, and is particularly great for vegetarians and vegans alike. This is probably one of my favourite curries to eat (if not THE favourite), and it is rich and flavourful. This isn't made all the time, and I would only remember my mom serving this on special occasions. Now that I've started learning to cook Sri Lankan cuisine, I think I can try to make this more often 🙂
Green Bean Curry
It's another one of my Sri Lankan curry recipes for you, this time using green beans! I always loved the green bean curry that my mom would make growing up. It wouldn't be soggy limp beans soaked up in curry. It would be slightly crisp beans, in a flavourful coconut milk broth. It's a great way of cooking beans, rather than the traditional boiling or roasting, or with a bit of garlic. This curry is slightly different in that there isn't a whole lot of broth. If you certainly like your curries to have broth, you're more than welcome to add more milk, however, I think you may just enjoy this the way it is!
Sri Lankan Onion Sambol
I'm sure you must be thinking, "What the heck is a sambol?". Well, friends, it's basically a condiment typically made of chillies and other spices, with whatever secondary ingredients you like (garlic, onion, or lime is common). It originates from the term sambal from Indonesia, so sambols are commonly made in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Sri Lanka. You must've heard of sambal oelek, the chilli paste. In other words, they are spicy.
Acorn Squash Curry
Squash is one of my favourite fall vegetables. I know it's not fall, but I still like buying squash at the market. It is so versatile, and you can even use it in baking. My favourite way to eat it is in a curry. I can just eat a whole container of the curry if I had it in front of me. When I was in Sri Lanka in 2012, I volunteered for two weeks in a town that was affected by the 2004 tsunami through a local organization, called Volunteer Sri Lanka. If ever you do make your way to Sri Lanka, I highly recommend volunteering with this organization! It is run by a local, who lost his parents to the tsunami, and ever since, he has done philanthropic work over there, helping orphaned children and elderly, and there's also medical placements! His large house served as the volunteer house, and for meals they often served squash curry for lunch. It was delicious!

Does anyone else get these symptoms after running: feel cold, can't concentrate, irritable, miserable, tired, need food but no appetite? For me it comes on a few hours after a run and lasts the rest of the day. It was particularly bad in weeks 2-4, got much better in 5-6, then worse after W7R1.
It seems so unfair. I don't mind feeling bad on the run itself, you expect that, but to feel bad afterwards when you ought to be enjoying the benefits is surely all wrong. Does anybody know what causes it and what to do about it?
The common-sense explanation is that I have been overdoing it in some way, but I am in good health and the programme has worked well for me some of the time. I've stopped running with Laura for a while, and I'm doing my own routine, which has been a weekly run (three times now) where I just do what feels OK, and it works out roughly equivalent to W5.
Coincidentally, I have been doing an 8-week course in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, which includes mindful movement. There they talk about soft and hard edges, soft being where something just starts to get difficult, and hard is where you reach a real limit and risk injury and exhaustion. They say you should work between your soft and hard edges, and I think on that reading I got too close to my hard edge in W7, so it makes sense to drop back.
Does anyone else know what I'm talking about?

Hyundai announced Tarquini, Michelisz, Catsburg, Farfus for 2019 WTCR season
Hyundai Motorsport announced today that it will support four drivers in the 2019 WTCR – FIA World Touring Car Cup season, with defending champion Gabriele Tarquini leading the line-up.
Norbert Michelisz, who was Tarquini's teammate also in 2018, will continue to drive a Hyundai i30 N TCR while two new drivers, returnees to the World Touring Car category, will be Nick Catsburg and Augusto Farfus.
The champion of the inaugural WTCR season will celebrate 57th birthday in March 2019 but he even doesn't think about a retirement.
"After winning the FIA WTCR in the first year of racing with the i30 N TCR I am obviously very happy to be returning to the series to defend my title with a Hyundai in 2019. This year the series was very competitive. Next year I expect the racing to be even closer, with more manufacturers and more drivers – including my new team-mates – to battle with. Together we can now work over the winter to prepare for next season to make sure the i30 N TCR is right at the top of the standings once again," said Tarquini.
Both Nick Catsburg and Augusto Farfus will race in the WTCR alongside their BMW GT sports car programme. Both drivers are participating in BMW's FIA WEC campaign and both have rich experience in touring cars previously.
Catsburg was a WTCC regular from 2015 to 2017 with Lada and Volvo. On the other side, Farfus is a touring car veteran who spent seven seasons from 2004 to 2010 in the ETCC and WTCC, driving for Alfa Romeo and BMW, before switching to DTM in 2012. He then spent seven seasons in the DTM, scoring four wins with BMW.
The two teams which will race the i30 N TCRs are yet to be confirmed. Tarquini and Michelisz raced for the Italian BRC Racing Team in 2018, while the second Hyundai team, YMR, have moved away from Hyundai and become part of the new Lynk &Co Cyan Racing operation, meaning another team is set to replace them.

Hill's bestselling Book of Negroes set for film
Lawrence Hill's bestseller The Book of Negroes is set to make the leap from page to screen.
Toronto filmmakers Clement Virgo and Damon D'Oliveira announced Wednesday that their company, Conquering Lion Pictures, has acquired the film rights to Hill's award-winning novel.
"The scope and passion of Lawrence Hill's runaway bestseller makes it perfect material for an epic screen adaptation," producer D'Oliveira said in a statement.
Virgo, who has helmed such films as Poor Boy's Game and Lie With Me, will both produce and direct the adaptation.
Published in 2007, The Book of Negroes follows the sweeping story of heroine Aminata Diallo, tracking her life as she goes from her African village to being a slave in the southern U.S. and continuing on to Halifax and then London, England.
The novel, which garnered a flood of praise, went on to win the Writers' Trust Fiction Prize and the Commonwealth Writers Prize for Best Overall Book in 2008. It also won the 2009 edition of Canada Reads.
"I have great faith in Clement's and Damon's abilities to capture the heart and soul of Aminata's story and I wish them well in transforming her life from the page to the big screen," Hill said.


text: This is the type of gemstone that needs to be on its own, to impress someone. It is at least eye clean and very bright in its garb of medium toned, average pink pastel color, but that is not enough to grab the eye when it is surrounded by so many bigger and more unusual tourmalines. So if you would see this fine 2.37 carats pink round in a nice ring or other piece of jewelry, I am sure that it would grab your eye. Frankly how many other kinds of gemstones have such a great affordable pink, like tourmaline.

The U.S. Department of the Interior's National Park Service has featured Laurel Hill Park, the signature property of Laurel Hill Association, in a thoughtful piece entitled, "Laurel Hill Park in the Main Street Historic District of Stockbridge". It is filed under "Massachusetts Conservation" and details the history of the property, LHA and how its founders inspired the national civic preservation movement in 19th Century America.
For historical accuracy, we'd like to point out that in fact the Sedgwicks did not sell the property to LHA in 1853, nor did LHA give it to the town in 1878. The Sedgwicks transferred the title to LHA in 1878, and to this day LHA retains title, with the directive that the land be dedicated to the use and enjoyment of the public forever.
We think it's a great read, but you can decide for yourself by finding it here:

- Abstract:
- This paper presents a function-oriented system analysis method that gains knowledge about properties of technical systems, including system capabilities that can appear as sources of incipient failures. Such failures have a significant role in connection with process control systems, since they can cause the systems to become overloaded and even unstable, if they remain hidden. The method uses a particular terminology to contribute to the identification of system properties, including goals, functions, and the capabilities. All identified knowledge about the system is then represented by using a tailored combination of two function-oriented methods, Multilevel Flow Modelling (MFM) and Goal Tree-Success Tree (GTST). The features of the method, called Hybrid MFM-GTST, are described and demonstrated by using an example of a process control system. (C) 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Photo Link: 100 Year Old Photos of Old Russia — In Color!
As I mentioned, every once in a while, I'll link to something that I think you'll find fascinating, whether it's camera equipment or photos. This time, it's photos. And this feels almost like time travel. Note that I said "almost"; it's without that slightly nauseous, disorienting feeling one gets from time travel.
These are some amazing hundred year old photos of Russia, all in color, all from the Library of Congress! I know…all of us thought that everything was in black and white a hundred years ago. But the high quality of the photos as well as the vibrant colors make it seem as if these were taken recently, not before World War I or the Russian Revolution.
At this point, you may be asking, "Hey…that was a long time ago, but these look *incredible*! How were they photographed?"
Turns out that photographer Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii was a pretty bright apple who figured out how to create images in color by shooting three different negatives, using either a red, green, or blue filter, photographing them in fairly rapid sequence. He then recombined them, showing them in color through a projection system using the same three filters. Read about it in more detail here.
