This summer, I went back home to the place where my parents and grandparents are from. Ilocos Sur. As my 2 grandmas passed to the otherside, they pulled me to return to where they once walked.
There are different kinds of industries in Narvacan. Farmers sell their vegetables in the palenque and in the market.
Others work for the government. In the town, there are various electronic and cell phone vendors, and also an Internet Cafe. The latter was helpful in getting some work done. In Narvacan, going online is not as accessible because wifi isn't ubiquitous as it is like in other cities in the U.S. Although, some people have Internet on their phones if they can afford it. In the Internet Cafes, I saw a lot of youth gamers, especially in Vigan, the capital of Ilocos Sur. It seems that its mostly young folks use the Internet Cafes. Young adults are also managers of those cafes. They use Microsoft XP systems. I wonder how the introduction of technology is changing the cultures of the generations.
A common saying among some of my mestizo family members is that "farming is never fun." But, I found that a sad comment as it meant a disconnection from the way that Ilocanos are connected to the land. Ilocanos plant rice. It is wet-soil agriculture. It is what connects Ilocanos to the Southeast Asian and Pacific people's land based agricultural practices. There is a science to wet soil agriculture. My uncle mentioned how in Sagada, the people plant rice and also grow fish in the waters. The fish eat the bugs that would otherwise be a pest to the rice. When the fish grow, they are also a secondary form of food to complement the rice when harvested and cooked.
I kept thinking about the disavowal of farming among certain Ilocano classes. Half of me comes from a line of people who still farm, and another half of me comes from a line that disavows farming. These contradictory ideologies is a microcosm of the Philippines at large. There are the structural inequities that produce huge gaps between the privileged and the poor. But, there's also this drive of economic development and technological modernization that serve as a hope for the privileged and the poor. The mestizo side of the family that lived in the ili have almost all gone abroad, expect for one of my maternal side's sibling and his family. They have landed jobs in the U.S., and their money has power when they come to the PI, reinforcing their classed position when they were here before. But, this is of course a temporary power, as they will once again leave their family house empty again in the care of a fisher folk woman and her family. The farmer side of the family are in the barrios, and only a few have been able to go abroad. My paternal grandpa was among those in the barrios who was able to trailbraze my grandma, my dad and uncles, to have a chance abroad, to achieve a material advantage of the U.S. currency, to produce me, where my immediate family is today, and thus, in a privileged position here in the PI. Now, more of the women of my paternal side of the family are trying to go abroad.
Its so easy to fall into those black and white assumptions that going abroad is a reproduction of colonization, and staying in the Philippines is a resistance to it. Although, it is true that the phenomenon of the brain drain is symptom of colonization, and people who choose to stay to use their knowledge to build the Philippines helps to counter the brain drain. But at the same time, going abroad doesn't have to be all problematic. Just like engaging in economy, technology and modernization doesn't have to be all problematic. Sometimes engagement with the flows of power is needed in order to use it, to understand it, and infuse it with memories of what one feels is important, of what one values.
For example, the city of Vigan has become a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The discourses of historical monuments and urban design of the city builds upon the Spanish contact as the moment of progressive development. The Spanish-Native Filipino-Chinese cultural mixtures in architecture, historical characters, religion, business, food become what is praised. Never mind the fact that native Filipinos were brutalized by the Spanish, especially during the Basi Revolt, when the Spanish prohibited native Ilocanos from brewing their own basi (sugar cane wine) so that the colonial government could monopolize it. Nevermind the abuses of high ranking Spanish military men, soldiers and friars on native Ilocanos. Nevermind the executions of Ilocano freedom fighters Diego and Gabriela Silang and their crew. It seems that the UNESCO touch has monumentalized the history of Ilocano resistance, mixing it within a narrative of western favortism, in which time has since improved the primitivity of the Ilocanos, toward a more progressive, mestizo, western, modern, possibility.
But at the same time, the modernization process in the Philippines has not been all foreign controlled. Local peoples, natives, to mestizos with native values, have also built that city. Prior to the Spanish, Ilocanos were already trading with Chinese, Japanese, Malays, and others. The Pagburnayan (place to create jars) is evidence of pre-colonial trade in the Ilocos region. These jars were used by early Ilocano and Asian traders to transport goods between countries. Pagburnayan continues to exist, but not at the commercial peak it used to enjoy before. When we visited and spoke to the owner of the Pagburnayan says that many youth are more interested in jueteng than learning this native Ilocano craft of making clay jars. Although, he has been able to pass down this knowledge to just a few people in order to continue this trade to satisfy the local heritage market.
Ah, the local heritage market. If the land was the archive, the UNESCO sponsored monuments are records of a postcolonial history. Problematic narratives that praise the hispanicization of the Ilocos region, which mirrors internalized Eurocentrism in certain Ilocanos with access to, or glimpses to pastures of, privilege. But, also in those monuments, there are evidences of Ilocano resistance through literature,
survival through repression,
technological innovation,
through engineering development.
Early Spanish cathedrals in Ilocos were supervised by friars, but built by native Ilocanos. This was also true for the cathedrals in California, such as San Francisco de Asis, or Mission Dolores church, in SF. Many architects did not want to go to far flung colonies during the Spanish colonial era. So the missionaries would employ the labor of native people to build the cathedrals.
Santa Maria is a Spanish catedral used for evangelizing the indigenous folks in Abra, as well as in the lowlands. This picture is a part of the handrail going up lots of steps. The steps and height of the church's location was supposed to incite the power and glory of that building, as part of the evangelizing effect on the native people. In the background of this picture is a classic Vigan house with capiz windows.
The Vigan postcolonial archive was woven together through the calesa. The calesa service is also regulated by the Vigan touristic services because they take patrons to the various historic and cultural sites of the city, such as the ones I mentioned above. People can go to Salcedo Plaza, in front of Vigan Cathedral, to catch a ride with the calesa for 150 pesos. This method of expressing history and culture, through experience, seeing cultural sites, which also provide some form of income for local people, reveal Vigan as a postcolonial city. The contradictions of each record, which are the buildings, the places, the businesses, the people, the cultures, the histories we encountered, are inter-related to each other through the calesa ride that weaves them together. The whole city becomes the archive. The structures, the government that made it be, the people. It cannot be denied that there's an issue of commercial exploitation of culture. Ilocano culture and history being commercialized through tourism. But at the same time, Vigan has been able to create jobs for locals, as well as communicate information about the place. Is it possible to self-determine Ilocano history through the records that were made accessible in the landscape?
There was a deep saying by an old Chinese guy we met on a jeepney today: "Filipinos grab the dagger by the blade for a chance to survive."
Ilocanos, among other native Filipinos, have encountered colonization, and are still embedded within infrastructures left behind by imperial powers. But, at the same time, Ilocanos, among other Filipinos, need to engage with what is available to them, in order to survive. It means learning to create and use technology and business, within a commercializing and technologically modernizing society. Vigan is a place that has the opportunity to include culture and history into the mix of contemporary development. My experience in Vigan has inspired me to imagine possibilities of what the Philippines can be, if the history and culture is taken to heart and honored, if the values can be read in a way sensitive to issues of social and economic justice, and infuse this way of thinking into using the tools we use to build today and the future.

Siege Campaign
An island in political flux and the setting for Ian's first campaign. Aoteroa is a recently discovered island containing multiple ruined cities and a humanoid population consisting only of lizardmen and a few strangely civilized orcs. The human nation of Brixton, the planet's elven contingent, dwarves from the mainland and the island's settlement of gnomes all struggle for political domination over the island. The reality of the situation is that of a political stalemate, though the recent addition of orcish interests to the political landscape may cause some uncomfortable changes.
For the time being, each race is represented by a councilman in the Aoteroan Interim Council. This council rules the island with the tacit approval of the Arbiters, the island's magical automaton guardians. The Arbiters have also instituted the Clan System — a form of deputization of adventurers on the island — to police the island for them.
Aoteroa's ruins are many and varied, seeming to originate from no fewer than three different civilizations. As a result of the presence of these civilizations, many magical items and other treasures are often located in the ruins, giving both governments and adventurers cause to lay claim to as much of the island as they can.
Aoteroa is also home to the recently discovered white steel and red silver, metals with magical properties that are especially prized by gnomes and dwarves for everything from weapons to cookware.
Also interested in the magical properties of red silver, two years ago the Cult of Setesh attempted to capture and ransom the king of Brixton in an attempt to gain some measure of control over the island. Their attempt was thwarted by individuals serving in the Clan System, mainly The Unusuals.

Several oil companies this week cited lower US refining margins for a drop in third quarter earnings.
ExxonMobil Thursday, for instance, reported an 18% drop in earnings, while PBF Energy reported a Q3 operating loss. On Wednesday, Phillips 66 reported a fall in Q3 earnings, which included a refining segment loss of $2 million. All three blamed the earnings decline on a drop in refining margins, with higher crude prices and higher RINs prices eating into profits.
However, margins have been bouncing back in October, and while its too early to tell how the fourth quarter will shape up as a whole, margins are more favorable this year for refiners processing North American grades.
In the US Gulf Coast, for instance, the Light Louisiana Sweet cracking margin averaged $10.22/barrel in the third quarter, but in October to date has averaged $11.53/b.
That may not seem like a substantial increase, especially compared to the high margins achieved in the Midwest for Canadian grades.
But compare the LLS margin to the margin for an imported grade, like Nigerian Bonny Light. The two margins historically have run pretty close, but recently the LLS margin has held up while Bonny has faltered. That's because Bonny Light is priced off Brent, and is thus relatively more expensive. (And LLS has failed to keep up with the price of Brent, as we noted the other day in this blog entry.)
The Bonny Light cracking margin averaged $8.58/b in the third quarter, but for October to date has fallen to average just $4.09/b.
Blog entry continues below…

Platts margins reflect the difference between a crude's netback and its spot price. Netbacks are based on crude yields, which are calculated by applying Platts product price assessments to yield formulas designed by Turner, Mason & Co.
You could argue that LLS crude is unusually weak because of pipeline constraints at St. James, or Bonny unusually strong because of supply has been halted so frequently. But the same pattern can be seen with the Mars and Urals coking margins.
The Mars coking margin averaged $6.62/b in the third quarter, and the Urals coking margin averaged $4.88/b. In October to date, Mars has risen to average $8.19/b and Urals has fallen to average $2.69/b.
You could argue, correctly, that the current margin strength in the US is more the result of refinery maintenance — that is, lower demand for crude — than the result of high demand for refined products. Once refiners return we will likely see crude differentials narrow, which could deteriorate margins.
But the point remains that USGC margins for North American crudes would likely be lower if current increases in crude production were not providing insulation against supply disruptions overseas, say in Libya and Nigeria.
It should come as no surprise that US refiners are actively working to increase their domestic crude runs. Phillips 66 said Wednesday it was adding rail unloading capacity at its East Coast and West Coast plants to bring in more Bakken crude from North Dakota, and was also looking eventually to barging Eagle Ford crude from Texas to its Bayway, New Jersey refinery.
Eagle Ford crude is now making its way to Canada. Valero said it was increasing its Jean Goulin refinery runs in Quebec City, as it pulls in 35,000-50,000 b/d of Eagle Ford crude, with US government approval.

A GRIEVING mum is appealing for the return of her lost dog that helped her through the death of her daughter in a car crash.
Pauline Conville and her nine-year-old son Nathan have been heartbroken since their Staffordshire bull terrier Bella went missing from their Gorton home in April.
Pauline bought Bella as a pup only weeks before her 16-year-old daughter Nicola Donnelly died in a crash while travelling in a taxi in January 2004.
Since then Bella has been a constant comfort to single-mum Pauline in her darkest hours and has been a loyal companion to Nathan after his parents split up.
A two-month hunt for Bella has so far drawn a blank despite Pauline and Nathan scouring the neighbourhood and distributing 5,000 leaflets through doors, shops, pubs, and at bus-stops.
Pauline, who visits Manchester Dogs Home in search of Bella at least once a week and is in regular contact with Manchester Dog Wardens, is convinced her dog has been picked by someone who has claimed her as their own.
Pauline said: "Our Bella is so special to us. We have had enough loss in our lives. Our home was mum, dad, Leanne, Nicola and Nathan then the last few years our lives have been hell.
"Nathan's dad and myself split up, Leanne is now 20 years old and she has left home, then there is Nicola. She would have been 18 years old.
"We got Bella in December 2003 so our home, that was filled with a family, is now left with Nathan, Bella and myself. We are heartbroken and doing everything possible to find her.
"Bella has been with me all through these difficult years. Nathan goes to his dad's three days a week. That's when I have my cry and Bella has always been there for me. I really miss her and Nathan is fretting."
Bella, who has black and brindle markings, escaped when the back door was left open. Her collar had broken a couple of weeks before and she had no identification.
In the last two months Pauline has had her hopes raised three times when she has been contacted by people believing they have found Bella but on each occasion it has been the wrong dog.
Pauline said: "I'm sure Bella has been taken in by somebody. They may not realise that she belongs to someone else. We just want her home and I'm not going to give up looking for her."

Addiction Rehab Treatment Programs Centers
Opiate drug rehabs provide treatment to patients that are struggling with heroin, morphine, oxycontin, and vicodin addiction. Using opiates for a short period has effects like pain suppression, slow down of cardiac function, drowsiness and euphoria. Not to mention these drugs are very addictive. When used for a long time, opiates cause different medical complications. These include collapse veins, liver disease, bacterial infections which affect heart valves, kidney disease, arthritis, clogging of blood vessels and decreased hormone level production. Don't worry, if you or your loved one is addicted and dependent with severe opiate addiction, you can get help from the best opiate addiction cure center. Make sure the facility you choose has the best results and highest success rate. The Best Opiate Addiction Rehab will not get you addicted to suboxone of methadone, instead they will reset your brain to a pre addicted state, cure the withdrawals and reset the dopamine receptors.
Who needs the help of opiate addiction treatment centers?
Opiates have been abused for many years especially because of their ability to provide pain relief. However, some people use opiates recreationally due to the rushing pleasure sensation that they provide. There are people who start using opiates habitually so that they can continue to enjoy the pleasure that they provide. However, when this use becomes a habit, a person feels like he or she has lost control. This is when using the drugs becomes impossible without professional help. If you or your loved one has reached this point, you need help of an opiate addiction treatment center. Although there are several opiate addiction rehabs, it is important that you seek treatment from the Best Opiate treatment rehab.
What happens during opiate addiction treatment?
When you arrive at our opiate addiction treatment center, we will take you through the intake process. This process entails being examined by our doctor to find out more about your history of using the drugs and whether you have sought treatment in the past to see if we can help you. This evaluation or examination will form the basis of developing your treatment plan. If our experts find that you require detoxification, the process will start immediately. Since opiates can have intense withdrawal symptoms, we ensure that you have medical supervision while undergoing detoxification. Opiate withdrawal can last for up to 30 hours. However, it is only after undergoing complete detoxification that you can start the rehabilitation program. The time that the rehabilitation process will take varies depending on several factors. These include the duration over which you have been abusing drugs and whether you have underlying health conditions or other addictions. An inpatient opiate addiction treatment program can last for at least 28 days. However, you can undergo treatment for up to 90 days. The time that you stay in our rehab center depends on the recommendation of our physician or counselor. Generally, when you stay in a rehab center longer, you have better chances of overcoming your addiction. Therefore, avoid rushing the treatment process.
Stay sober and clean
Staying sober and clean after being addicted to opiates is not easy. As such, people from The Top Opiate Drug Rehabs and those who have left the rehabs after completing their treatment programs need support from friends and families. This is why we encourage friends and families of the recovering addicts to attend meetings with the recovering individuals and to encourage them to go through the treatment process and to remain sober and clean after completing the treatment program. Friends and family members learn how to detect relapse signals and to encourage their loved ones to seek help whenever they detect these signals. Usually, staying sober and clean is challenging to people that have been using opiates even after undergoing treatment. However, it is not impossible. You just need to attend appointments as well as group meetings. If you are faced with triggers or cravings, seek help from a rehab center immediately. Remember that recovering from drug addiction is a lifelong process. As such, be proactive in the rehabilitation process.
If you need an opiate rehab center for you or for your loved one, get in touch with us today. We are one of the opiate addiction rehabs that provide effective programs to individuals who want to overcome opiate addiction. With our treatment approaches that have been proven effective in treating opiate addiction as well as cognitive behavioral education, encouragement and guidance, you are bound to overcome your addiction to lead a better, healthier and successful life. Contact us today for more information about our opiate addiction treatment.

|Looks great!
|My conures would not touch it. But since they were hungry...they ate all their veggies!
|My seed junkies make it hard for me to feed them healthy foods but we will try something else.
|Awesome blend! by Hotrod101 on 2015-03-18 15:25:57
|5 of 5 - Excellent
|I had been ordering the Goldenfeast brand of this for a while, but I was really excited to see this new Golden Gourmet line come out, because I buy everything else for my conure here besides the Goldenfeast products I was ordering. I have to say,I am super pleased with this product! It is cleaner and even a little bit cheaper than the Goldenfeast line, and seems to have more carrots in it, which I think is great for conures because it contains vitamin A. You get more bang for your buck with this product and just ordered it a second time for my baby! I also believe that it is healthier. Highly recommend if you are looking for an alternative to the Goldenfeast products. (My conure Hotrod approves too! :-)
|I would also really love to see more varieties come out in this line!!
|Awesome! by Bobbie on 2015-02-09 19:30:56

|I used to purchase the Conure blend by Goldenfeast. What was pictured and what they sent were two totally different things. I questioned Goldenfeast on this and they told me their pictures are enhanced. I got a bunch of junk! What you see is what you get here. My birds have had their beaks in their bowls for over an hour!
|Hope to see lots more blends from this new food line.

It's not exactly been a season for strikers this year, with a number of big names performing well beyond expectations so far as some of the top teams in the Premier League and around Europe seemingly perform best without fielding one at all.
Is the traditional centre-forward now an endangered species? Have this new generation of super-savvy managers and defenders worked them out? Or is this all just a bit of a blip not to be taken too seriously?
Diego Costa certainly isn't reading the script as he sits top of the Premier League scoring charts (on 7 goals) after some fine form, but up there among the best goalscorers in England this term are also this new breed of 'false-9' attackers increasingly deployed by top flight managers: Alexis Sanchez and Son Heung-min (4 each); or versatile winger-forwards such as Theo Walcott, Michail Antonio (both 5) and Eden Hazard (4).
But who are the ones meant to be providing the goals who are struggling…and why? Here's a look at five big-name examples from the Premier League:
Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Two stats perfectly sum up Ibrahimovic's time in a United shirt so far, and they are:
Ibrahimovic decline
First 5 games – 5 goals
Next 9 games – 1 goal
Perhaps this should be expected from a player who's just turned 35, but it's also an incredibly rapid decline by a world class player who seemed to be loving life in Manchester at the start of the season.
Not short of playing time and trust from his manager, Ibrahimovic's form may be best explained by the dip of those around him since the shell-shock of that home defeat to Manchester City at the start of September. Jose Mourinho has reverted to type and arguably gone too cautious since then, with creative players like Paul Pogba and Juan Mata perhaps too shackled to exert the kind of influence they'd like, while arguably the top playmaker in Europe last season, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, has barely got a look-in at all.
Ibrahimovic could still be doing better with the chances he's had – with various stats showing he's guilty of the most 'big misses' in the top flight – but that could be explained by the overall negativity in the squad and in Mourinho's tactics.
Sergio Aguero
Even more so than Ibrahimovic, Sergio Aguero was absolutely on fire at the start of this season as he bagged an incredible eleven goals in his first six games.
Since then, however, it's six games without a single solitary strike for the Argentine, who has lost confidence after being taken in and out of the side by manager Pep Guardiola.
Like Ibrahimovic, Aguero seems to be the victim of his manager's tendency to cling to a philosophy of football: while Mourinho has starved service to his front-men by putting an emphasis on defence, Guardiola has responded to some bad results by tinkering with his side and perhaps trying a little too hard to reinvent the wheel with Kevin De Bruyne in a false-9 role.
As Mourinho has a strong record to point to with his parking-the-bus football throughout his career, Guardiola will feel he has done this before to great success with Lionel Messi at Barcelona and, to a lesser extent, with Thomas Muller at Bayern Munich.
Football purists will wonder, however, what the point of it all is if the effect is alienating one of the best strikers in the world and one of your squad's most deadly weapons.
Daniel Sturridge
Daniel Sturridge has just four goals all season, all of which have come in the League Cup. In the Premier League, he is without a goal since April.
Where has it gone so wrong for one of the best strikers in the Premier League? A superb natural talent, Sturridge has obviously suffered with his numerous injury problems down the years, but now that he's fit, why has he not won his place in the starting XI back?
Liverpool currently sit level on points with Manchester City and Arsenal at the top of the table, and like these two, they seem to feel the future is playing without a recognised striker. For all of Sturridge's qualities, he certainly lacks the speed, fluidity, work rate and selfless play of the Reds' current front three Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Philippe Coutinho.
The former Chelsea man may be a joy to watch on his day, but he isn't ideally suited to Klopp-ball, and in the managerial super league that the Premier League has become this season, it seems that decision will be final. No one, not even players like Sturridge and Aguero, are untouchable.
Vincent Janssen
A hugely disappointing summer signing, Vincent Janssen has only managed two goals for Tottenham so far this season. Both of those have been penalties in the League Cup.
Compared to Ruud van Nistelrooy for his prolific form in the Eredivisie, one wonders if that kind of penalty-box poacher can cut it in the modern Premier League, with this Dutchman failing to reach anywhere near the same heights as the former Manchester United hit-man.
Janssen's struggles
Last season – 49 games, 31 goals
This season – 14 games, 2 goals
Clearly an accomplished finisher, as his stats from last season at AZ Alkmaar show, Janssen doesn't have any other obvious strings to his bow – not particularly fast, not particularly skilful, nor blessed with the kind of creativity and link-up play expected of modern forwards.
As such, the 22-year-old perhaps hasn't seen as much playing time as expected, even in the absence of Harry Kane. Maybe he will turn things around, but for now the mere fact that Mauricio Pochettino has preferred moving Son Heung-min up front (with great results) speaks volumes about what this crop of managers want their strikers to contribute on the pitch.
Michy Batshuayi
Lastly, and in a slightly different situation at Chelsea, Michy Batshuayi looks to have arrived at Stamford Bridge under slightly confusing circumstances.
The prolific young Belgian impressed a host of top clubs this summer after scoring 23 goals in all competitions for Marseille last season, but it was Chelsea that beat others to his signature as they feared what then looked like a likely departure for Diego Costa.
As it happened, the Spaniard was kept around by Antonio Conte, and is one of the club's most revitalised stars this season, bucking the trend by showing that a lone man up front can still be a vital part of a modern title challenging-team.
Still, for Batshuayi, that has meant a lot of time on the bench and a lack of opportunities to be the focal point Costa has been for the Blues this term. Whether or not he'll stick around to try and prove he can be a better option remains to be seen, but almost any striker would struggle to displace Costa in this kind of form.

Phew, it's done. My son submitted his first college application this week. He still has more applications to complete before January 1, but getting that first one done is a big accomplishment.
Especially because turning in an "early application" usually means you have to fill out the Common App, which goes to most of the other schools you'll be applying to later. Filling in data like test scores and extra-curriculars isn't so bad, but the essays . . . . The typical teenager doesn't enjoy WRITING about himself — especially if he's a boy and would rather be doing anything else – for example, in the face of college application essays, cleaning his room starts to look appealing.
College applications and frequent flyers?
Wouldn't it be great if colleges had something similar to the TSA PreCheck or Clear? These programs, available to frequent flyers, allow you to submit personal data ahead of time, in some cases paying a fee, but they guarantee quick passage through airport security. If such a thing were available to speed through the essay portions of college apps, kids could just affix electronic stamps of approval to their applications: "I'm pre-certified to be fantastic, seriously!" It would save so much stress, both for them and their parents.
That's the other thing. There's no way the strain of this doesn't spill over to the parents. In some cases it even starts with us. Yes, of course I know it's my child who's going to college and not me. Sometimes I just have trouble acting accordingly.
For example, when it gets to be late at night and he's trying to figure out which version of a sentence sounds better, he may as well ask me. But at the same time, it's easy to do too much, to get caught up in my child's process. I've seen how hard he's worked through high school. Like any parent, I want the best for my kid — yet this is his deal, not mine. I have to keep reminding myself.
You'd think that, since my two older children made successful transitions to college, I'd be confident and familiar enough with this season of life that my child's senior year wouldn't feel so traumatic for me. Ha!
College application dejà vu
If I've learned anything from going through this before, it's a recognition that I can't stop the pace of change. It's almost comforting to be back in this place again – I know it so well. I recognize the emotions we stressed-out parents have. We know our kids will be fine, but we still can't stop worrying. Hopeful, we watch them reaching out to grasp their own brass ring. At the same time, though, we remember: wasn't it just a few years ago that we were standing guard beside them on a real merry-go-round?
If it weren't enough to think about my youngest starting college, today I received the first official notice from my eldest child's school regarding his upcoming graduation — parents are urged to bookmark the university's "GradZone 2013" webpage for up-to-the-minute news on accommodations, Class Day festivities, Commencement, and so forth.
Too much is spinning by me, and too fast. I think I'll take a day off. Maybe go for a carousel ride.

When I first met Mo + Jon… I knew right away that they were my people. They literally overflow with love and happiness and were just so excited to be planning their forever.
Their engagement session was nothing short of crazy, unpredictable magic. When we got to Horsetooth Reservoir just west of Fort Collins, Co, the WIND WAS BLOWING. . . not just soft breeze, but knock you over, blow your shirt off your head… WINDY. . . so instead of getting worried or rescheduling… we ADVENTURED! Hiking up and down the hills, dragging motorcycles into fields, and then trekking down to the water while these two snuggled up was absolutely magical. And I LOVED that they brought buddy, the old pup, who has such a special place in their lives. I love that we got to include him in both their engagement and wedding photos.
So their adventure began. Windy kisses, crazy hiking, and all the love mushed into one beautiful and edgy engagement session.

The series of public consultations on the five sub-policies of the National Energy Policy are generating a lot of interest from the private sector.
Minister of State in the Ministry of Energy and Mining, Hon. Laurence Broderick told JIS News that overseas investors are now more confident in coming to Jamaica to invest, because a policy is now more clearly enunciated.
"Once you have the institutional, regulatory and legal capacity in place, this offers the investor the comfort that he's not in a free fall situation. Jamaica is going to look very attractive," he said.
Jamaica's first National Energy Policy was recently tabled in the House of Representatives in draft form, and public consultations are being held to get the input of citizens on five sub-policies.
These include Energy from Waste; Trading of Carbon Credits; Energy Efficiency and Conservation; Bio-fuels; and Renewable Energy. The sixth sub-policy – Electricity Generation – has not yet been drafted as discussions are still in progress.
Mr. Broderick said that with the five sub-policies currently receiving attention through the consultations, the country was way ahead in the process. "We're sufficiently on the way. An investor can come to Jamaica and confidently look at us as a potential place to invest," he said.
The State Minister pointed out that since energy had a bearing on every aspect of economic development, including manufacturing, agriculture and transportation, Jamaicans need to be more aware of the efforts being made to have a policy in place.
Mr. Broderick said that the turnout at the consultations, particularly by stakeholders in the private sector, was a clear indication that they are interested in opportunities that will be available for investment.
"It clearly shows that they are keen on the opportunities for our local businessmen to invest in waste to energy, solar and bio-fuels. We also had a number of participants who are involved in aspects of renewable (energy), by way of investment," he said.
Six consultations have so far been held on the draft policy.
The series of public consultations on the five sub-policies of the National Energy Policy are generating a lot of interest from the private sector.

November the 21st saw the formal launch of a report, 'Listening to Fathers', which was the result of a Knowledge Exchange Fellowship involving the University of Edinburgh and Circle Scotland, a Family support organisation.
Knowledge Exchange Fellowships are designed to promote collaboration between voluntary, public and private sector organisations and the University. It provides Fellows with an academic mentor and allows them access to University resources to work on a project of mutual interest.
'Listening to Fathers' considers the experiences of fathers involved in the child protection system. It was undertaken by Nick Smithers, Fathers Support Worker at Circle supported by Mark Smith, senior lecturer in social work. The launch was attended by around 60 policy makers and practitioners and also three of the fathers who participated in the research.
The report received front page coverage in The Herald newspaper and on BBC Radio Scotland.

2 top Dems demand public hearings on Trump Cabinet travel
WASHINGTON (AP) — Two top Democrats on a House committee are demanding public hearings to force top Trump administration officials to explain their costly plane travel.
In a letter Tuesday, Reps. Elijah Cummings, the top Democrat on the House oversight committee, and Raja Krishnamoorthi, a subcommittee chair, complained that federal agencies and the White House had repeatedly resisted the committee's requests made last fall for information on the extent of senior officials travel. Their request to Republican chairman Trey Gowdy cites recent reports of travel by Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt involving military aircraft that cost taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars.
Open hearings are needed to air out government spending before U.S. taxpayers and ensure "their hard-earned money is not wasted," Cummings and Krishnamoorthi wrote.
A spokeswoman for Gowdy did not have immediate comment.
The lawmakers' call comes amid growing questions over Trump Cabinet members' spending and travel following Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price's resignation last fall over his pricey travel. Last week, Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin was ousted, in part over ethics violations during an 11-day trip to Europe in which his staff doctored emails to justify his wife traveling for free at taxpayer expense.
In their letter, Cummings and Krishanmoorthi complain that federal agencies have yet to fully respond to the oversight committee's requests last September that sought information on the use of government-owned aircraft for personal travel or private aircraft for official travel. They point in particular to delay from the White House, which they said had issued a series of "evolving and bizarre refusals" to avoid disclosing the extent of its private travel.
Last month, the watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington released documents showing that Mnuchin had taken eight trips on military aircraft last year that totaled nearly $1 million, including a trip to Miami that cost more than $40,000.
Pruitt also has come under fire for a flight to Italy to attend a G-7 summit that cost taxpayers more than $120,000; the trip included a private tour of the Vatican. The Associated Press reported that the known cost of Pruitt's previously reported trip grew last month after the agency disclosed a heavily censored document showing expenses for Pruitt's security detail cost more than $30,500. That's on top of nearly $90,000 spent for food, hotels, commercial airfare and a military jet used by Pruitt and nine EPA staff.
Other Cabinet secretaries being scrutinized for their use of government or private flights costing tens of thousands of dollars are Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke and Energy Secretary Rick Perry.
The Cabinet secretaries have generally denied wrongdoing and defended their travel as pre-approved and appropriate for their work.

Qigong Power Training System
Posture in qigong is also called regulation of the body or adjustment of posture. It is especially important for the beginners of static or dynamic qigong to have a good command of proper posturization.
Four postures may be assumed in qigong exercise-sitting, lying, standing and walking. Static qigong usually requires a sitting,lying or standing posture while dynamic qigong often needs the standing and walking. The formal training of outgoing qi therapy often needs a strict posture; however, the skill can also be trained during walking, standing, sitting and lying in daily life.
(1) The Sitting Posture
1) Upright Sitting
Sit upright on a large, even square stool. Ground the feet apart at shoulder width. Bend the knees to form an angle of 90
degrees. Keep the trunk erect, the angle between the trunk and the thigh being 90 degrees. Rest the palms gently on the thighs with the arms bent at the elbows naturally, look straight forward, draw in the chin a little, let down the shoulders and draw the chest slightly inwards to keep the back straight, close the eyes and mouth gently and apply the tongue against the palate
Fig. 4-1 The Upright Sitting Fig. 4-2 The Cross-legged Zi-
2) Sitting Cross-legged
Sit cross-legged on bed steadily with the two feet under the legs. Cushion the hips to raise them a little, with the body leaning slightly forwards, overlap the hands before the abdomen with the left above the right and the thumb of the right hand pressing Ziwen (the crease joining the palm and the ring finger) of the left hand and the thumb and the middle finger of the left hand jointing together to form a Zi-Wu Jue Shi (a cross-legged Zi-Wu sitting posture) (Fig. 4-2). Or close the —158—

Wu Sitting Posture
Wu Sitting Posture two palms in front of the chest to form a Fo Zhang Shi (a cross—legged Buddha-greeting sitting posture) (Fig. 4-3). Or put the two hands on the two knees naturally to form a Jin Gang Shi (a crossed—legged Buddha's-warrior--attendant sitting posture) (Fig. 4-4).
(2) The Lying Posture 1) Lateral Recumbent Posture
Lie on bed in lateral recumbent posture (usually on the right side but either side will do ), the trunk being kept slightly bent. Rest the head on a pillow and lean it towards the chest a bit. Keep the eyes and mouth slightly closed and the tongue against the palate. Put the hand of the lying side comfortably on the pillow with the palm upwards, and place the other palm on it, the tips of the little, ring, middle and index fingers of the upper hand on the metacarpophalangeal creases of the corresponding four fingers of the lower hand, the thumb of the upper hand resting on the outside part between the thumb and the
Fig. 4-4 The Cross-legged Buddha's-Worrior— Attendant Sitting Posture index finger of the lower hand. Or place the upper arm of the above side naturally on the same side of the body (Fig. 4-5). Stretch the leg of the lying side naturally, with the above bent and resting naturally on it.
2) Supine Posture
Lie on bed in a supine posture with the face upward and the neck straight, stretch the extremities naturally with the two hands at the sides of the body or on the abdomen, overlapping one another (the right above the left in male and vice versa in female), keep the eyes and mouth gently closed and the tongue against the palate to form a Die Zhang Shi (a supine lying posture with hands overlapped) (Fig. 4-6).
Fig. 4-6 The Lying Supine Posture with Hands Overlapped (3) The Standing Posture
Stand with feet apart as wide as the shoulders. Keep the —160—
Fig. 4-6 The Lying Supine Posture with Hands Overlapped (3) The Standing Posture
Stand with feet apart as wide as the shoulders. Keep the —160—
head straight, the trunk erect, the chest slightly inward,the knees at ease and the arms raised and bent a little. Keep the fingers apart naturally, and hold the two hands close to the chest or the lower abdomen as if holding a ball (a ball-holding standing posture) (Fig. 4-7); or close the two palms in a way as if doing Buddhist greeting ( a Buddha's greeting standing posture ), or press the palms downwards (a palm-pressing standing posture)(Fig. 4-8)); or get the right (left) hand upwards with the left (right) palm held erect with the root of the palm pointing at the midpoint of the medial side of the root of the right (left) palm to form a Zhan Zhuang Fang Yuan Shi (a square-round standing posture) (Fig. 4-9). The two hands can also be overlapped against the lower abdomen. The mouth and eyes should be closed gently and the tongue should be propped against the palate during practice.

(4) Essentials of Posturization
So far as the requirements for posture in qigong are concerned, Zun Sheng Ba Jian - Yan Nian Que Bing Jian (Eight Annotations on Health Preservation - Annotations on Longevity and Disease Prevention) by Gao Lian (Ming Dynasty, 1368-1644) says, "Sit on a thick-padded cushion, loosen the clothing, keep the back straight up, get the lips close to the teeth, stick the tongue against the palate, keep the eyes slightly open and stare at the apex of the nose". Although there is a variety of postures in qigong exercise, the essential requirements for them remain the same.
1) Loosening the Clothes
This step is essential to ensure a smooth flow of qi through the unobstructed channels and collaterals.
2) Picturing Supporting an Object on the Head
Also called "Suspending the Crown of the Head", it is neccessary to prop the head upward gently, pull in the chin slightly and lift the neck a little to get it straight and relaxed.
3) Relaxing the Shoulders and Dropping the Elbows
This should be done with ease; avoid stiffness of the elbows.
4) Drawing in the Chest and Straightening the Back
The practitioner should not ease his back at will or lean it against anything. Instead, he should keep it erect, and on this basis, draw in his chest a little.
5) Keeping the Waist and the Abdomen Relaxed
The waist and abdomen are two important parts in training and guiding qi. The abdomen is usually taken as the furnace for refining qi and the waist, as the residence of the kidneys,the gate of life and the important pass of qi and blood circulation. Relaxation of the waist and abdomen without slackness is helpful to the training and circulation of qi.
6) Contracting the Buttocks and Relaxing the Knees
Contracting the hips a little helps to straighten the spinal column; relaxing the knees permits free flow of qi through the Three Yang and Three Yin Channels of Foot.
7) Keeping the Toes Clutching the Ground
When the standing posture is taken,stretch the feet and let the five toes of each foot clutch the ground to keep the body as firm as Mount Tai (as stable as possible).
8) Curtain-falling and Inward Vision
It refers to dropping the eyelids to create inward vision on the spot where qi is trained or circulates. Yin Fu Jing claims that "the functional activities of qi are determined by the eyes";
Ling Shu - Da Huo Lun (Miraculous Pivot - on Elusiveness) holds that "the eyes are the messengers of the mind, and the mind is the home of vitality". Eyes are of great importance in qigong exercise. Curtain-falling and inward vision can keep mentality undisturbed, turning off hallucination as well as sunlight. The eyes should neither be tightly closed nor left wide open; in the former, drowsiness may occur because of darkness and in the latter, vitality may be deranged because of too much light.
9) Closing the Mouth and "Stopping the Ears"
Laozi (Laotzi) once said " Close the mouth to shut the gate". Shutting the gate here refers to closing the mouth slightly without clenching the teeth or tightening the hps, while stopping the ears means to focus one's hearing to oneself so as to be free from outside interference (inward-hearing).
10) Sticking the Tongue against the Palate
Traditionally called "propping the palate with the tongue tip" or "tongue propping",it means to apply the tongue against the palate naturally and gently to join the Ren and Du Channels. In the course of practice, the strength of the tongue sticking against the palate will increase automatically and the tongue substance will be gradually pulled backward in accord. This is a phenomenon occurring in the course of qigong practice and should not be pursued intentionally.
