Using Stoicism to Overcome Adversity: A Short Guide to Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy
The ideas presented in this book are based on the ancient wisdom of Stoicism and the more contemporary Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). By putting the advice into practice, you will be able to more easily overcome adversity and better control your emotions.
When we experience intense emotions such as anger, depression, or anxiety, we assume that something outside of ourselves caused our feelings. But, according to REBT, it is our underlying beliefs about our circumstances that control our emotions. By changing our underlying beliefs, we can change how we feel.
According to Albert Ellis, founder of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), we make an error when interpreting our emotions. When we experience intense emotions such as anger, depression, or anxiety, we assume that something outside of ourselves caused our feelings. But, according to REBT, it is our underlying beliefs about our circumstances that control our emotions. By changing our underlying beliefs, we can change how we feel. The therapy presented in this book is based on the ancient wisdom of Stoicism and the more contemporary Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT).
By putting the advice into practice, you may be able to get better control of your emotions. By following a simple, common-sense approach to confronting your unwanted beliefs, which influence your emotions, you may begin to get a hold of the underlying cause of your unwanted feelings. At its core, REBT is the idea we make ourselves miserable, most of the time. We are the cause of our unwanted feelings, and we can change our feelings by changing the underlying philosophy behind our feelings.
REBT is based on some of the philosophies of the Stoics, especially Epictetus, who said: "Men are disturbed not by things, but by the view which they take of them." For Ellis, achieving tranquility of mind was not about changing what was going on in the external world, but rather, changing our underlying philosophy of life. Events themselves don't cause us to be miserable, it is our beliefs about the events that control our emotions. By changing our underlying beliefs, we can change how we feel.

The Air Quality Index can warn you about wildfire smoke and pollution in your area. Here's a step-by-step guide.
Editor's note, June 7, 2023: Wildfires in Canada are causing widespread air quality issues across the eastern United States. Our story on the Air Quality Index, originally published on September 17, 2021, follows.
The United States has faced nearly 44,000 wildfires this year alone, and altogether they have burned an area the size of New Jersey. Every one of these fires kicks up tiny particles of liquids and solids, each a fraction of the diameter of a single human hair. These particles can travel for thousands of miles and remain suspended in the air for weeks. Fires in California have polluted the skies as far away as New York City.
Microscopic particles in the air, whether from wildfire smoke or other sources of air pollution such as industrial and automobile exhaust, are dangerous: Their size allows them to penetrate deep into the body, even entering the lungs and bloodstream.
"It triggers some inflammation in the body that can do everything from destabilize plaques in our blood vessels and cause heart attacks, or even cause inflammation in our neurons," said Aaron Bernstein, a pediatrician who leads the climate center at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. "The more we look, the more we realize that pretty much no part of our body is spared from this exposure to air pollution."
Air pollution is one of the biggest modern threats to human health, and scientists have learned that small particulate matter, or PM2.5, can cause damage even in small doses. Although US air quality has improved over time due to legislation like the Clean Air Act, a recent report found that global air pollution reduces global life expectancy more than terrorism, alcohol and drug use, unsafe drinking water, HIV/AIDS, or malaria. Other research suggests wildfire smoke increases the chance of death from Covid-19: A recent study estimated that 17 percent of Covid-19 deaths in the US may be linked to long-term exposure to air pollution.
In short, air quality is often a more accurate indicator of the dangers to public health than the weather forecast alone, but many people pay much less attention to it. One measurement aims to change that by distilling all of this high-stakes information: the Air Quality Index (AQI). Understanding the AQI can help you plan your day and protect yourself, just as rain in the forecast tells you to bring an umbrella with you when you leave home.
"It's a way to flag for folks the basic precautionary actions — to say, 'The air quality is not great, I still want to go outside and do this, but I'm going to set my alarm so that in an hour I'm going to take a break and make sure I'm not running into trouble,'" Bernstein said.
Here's a step-by-step guide to understanding the importance of the AQI, including several resources from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to help you track the AQI in your community.
Where to look for air quality information in your area
Experts consider the EPA's AirNow website the gold standard for air monitoring in the US, and it can be a one-stop shop for understanding the AQI in and around your community. Type in your zip code, and the website will pull data from permanent air monitors in your area, 365 days a year.
AirNow, which partners with state, local, and tribal agencies as well as the US Forest Service, tracks two main sources of pollution. One is ground-level ozone, which tends to be worse in the late afternoon on hot summer days and can cause lung damage and asthma attacks. The second is the main concern in wildfire smoke: particulate matter.
The EPA shares AQI measurements that range from zero to 500; the higher the AQI, the greater the level of air pollution. An AQI of 75 could pose a slight health risk, while an AQI of 210 means the air is so polluted that you should stay indoors and protect yourself.
The biggest drawback to the Air Quality Index is that it misses the granular picture in communities where the EPA doesn't have sensors. Since air pollution can vary widely even over short distances — think a busy highway versus a quiet, tree-lined road — the EPA may be missing some data for the places that face the worst pollution.
The EPA and US Forest Service in 2020 launched a new database that attempts to fill in some of these gaps. The Fire and Smoke Map supplements the EPA's official measurements with temporary and crowdsourced sensors (such as low-cost monitors from a company called PurpleAir) to show current measurements for the PM2.5, the biggest threat from wildfires.
The map contains a trove of information, and you don't have to guess where it's getting its information: The source is identified with symbols (circles for EPA monitors, squares for temporary monitors, and triangles for crowdsourced data from third-party, low-cost monitors like those from Purple Air). Click on your area to find local information, or swipe through to find past pollution measurements and forecasts for the day (whether the pollution is likely to get better or worse).
So where should you start? If you're interested in overall air quality, including ozone and PM2.5, the EPA recommends you use its AirNow website. But if you're worried about the smoke from wildfires, look to the Fire and Smoke Map. The EPA's mobile app, also called AirNow, has both.
A step-by-step guide to using the AQI
Let's say you open the AirNow app and type in your zip code to check your community's air pollution forecast. Maybe you live in California, which has been plagued by historic fires. If you live in an affected community — say, Northern California's Weaverville — you'll find a reading for PM2.5, or particulates smaller than 2.5 microns. You can click through for details for more guidance and information about what agency is supplying the data.
But there's more. Say you want to see more detail on the wildfire smoke in the area. On the app, click the smoke symbol, and that brings you directly to the Fire and Smoke Map.
On the AirNow website, you can click the red Fire and Smoke icon.
AQI numbers are color-coded from "good" to "hazardous": The higher the number, the worse the pollution and the darker the colors. These ratings account for whichever pollutant (ozone or PM2.5) is highest at the time, and can help you figure out the kinds of activities that are safe to do outside.
The people who have to pay the closest attention to daily air pollution are sensitive groups: young children and teenagers, pregnant people, people with underlying conditions such as heart and lung disease or asthma, and the elderly.
- Green (0–50): According to the EPA, this means anyone is good to go outside because the air is safe to breathe.
- Yellow (51–100): The air quality is generally considered okay, except for the most sensitive groups. This is a good time to watch for symptoms like shortness of breath or coughing; if you're experiencing this, it may be time to limit outdoor activity or strenuous exercise.
- Orange (101–150): Here's where it gets trickier, because sensitive groups should proceed with more caution while the rest of the public may be just fine. Sensitive groups want to reduce heavy exertion outside or take more breaks, and people with asthma and heart disease should watch for symptoms.
- Red (151–200): The air is unhealthy for everyone. Sensitive groups want to avoid being active outdoors, while everyone else should reduce their time outdoors.
- Purple (201–300): The air is very unhealthy for everyone. Everyone should consider moving their activities inside.
- Maroon (301 and above): This is the highest level — hazardous — and anyone can be at risk. Everyone should avoid physical activity outdoors, and if you're in that sensitive category, you should remain indoors.
The trickiest aspect of the color-coded system is knowing how to act in those middle yellow and orange ranges. It's ultimately a judgment call that should factor in your overall health, based on any risk factors you may have and how you feel.
"If you're really coming through a rough stretch with your lung disease, today is probably not the best day — even if it's yellow — for you to be working outside," Bernstein, the pediatrician, said as one example. "If someone has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and their symptoms have been really well-controlled for a while, if it's a yellow or even orange day, it might be: 'Let's go outside for a fixed amount of time.'"
What to do when the air quality is bad
On a bad air day, it's important to take additional precautions besides just limiting your time outdoors. Here are some recommendations from the EPA and public health experts:
- Use HEPA air filters indoors and avoid smoking or using your fireplace; you might even want to reconsider candles.
- Wearing an N95 mask, if you have one, outdoors can protect the medically sensitive or people in the worst zones because it filters out PM2.5. Cloth masks do not work for filtering fine particulate matter.
- No heavy exercise outdoors on days that are particularly bad. Consider spending less time outdoors altogether, and getting away from busy roads if you are able.
- Don't dose yourself unnecessarily with pollution: Bernstein says people do this in ways they don't realize. They might idle their cars in an attached garage or buy fragranced and ozone-forming products, or run wood- or gas-burning stoves that pollute indoor air.
- Consider talking with your doctor. Bernstein acknowledges that medical providers can be "wildly undereducated on the subject," though the CDC has programs to train medical professionals on how to use AirNow.
Your lungs and heart really depend on what we do about climate change
Not everyone has control over their outdoor activities, and some communities and outdoor workers face astronomically higher risk from pollution than others. White Americans contribute more to air pollution through their consumption of goods and services, yet Black and Hispanic Americans tend to live in neighborhoods with lower air quality — one reason for the pandemic's disproportionate toll on these communities.
While more informed citizens and health care providers would go a long way in taking sensible precautions — in the same way we'd wear masks to reduce Covid-19 risk in public spaces — it isn't enough on its own. The scope of people affected by air pollution is hard to fathom: A Harvard study published in Environmental Research Letters in February found that global air pollution from fossil fuels was responsible for one in five deaths worldwide in 2018. That's about 8 million people, roughly the population of New York City.
These numbers suggest the problem of air pollution is bigger than any individual's choices. The United States passed the Clean Air Act in 1963, and the air is cleaner today than it was in the 1970s, when the environmental movement to regulate pollution was in its infancy. Just as it took decades to appreciate the benefits then, the quality of air we'll breathe for decades to come depends on what we do about it now.
The United States can cut pollution by cutting reliance on fossil fuels. This would expose fewer people to the other types of pollutants that come from burning and refining coal, oil, and gas. It would also help prevent runaway global warming, which is causing lengthier and more damaging wildfire seasons.
"My hopeful vision of the future is that we make this transition off of fossil fuels, and most folks are going to have very little exposure to air pollution for much of the year in the United States," Bernstein told Vox. "That would be a much better future than all of us needing to have yet another thing to worry about on a daily basis — because we don't have to. We actually have a choice."

President Donald Trump's approval ratings may have reached historic lows in record time, but even as 40 percent of the country wants him impeached, supporters of Trump seem mystified by the fierceness of the opposition he faces — even as individuals on the fence often admit to feeling turned off by that same hostility.
"They're stonewalling everything that he's doing because they're just being babies about it," Patricia Melani, a 56-year-old New Jersey transplant who attended Trump's campaign rally in Florida on Saturday, told The Washington Post. "All the loudmouths? They need to let it go. Let it go. Shut their mouths and let the man do what he's got to do. We all shut our mouths when Obama got in the second time around, okay? So that's what really needs to be done."
She later added, "There's such hatred for the man. I just don't get it."
The Post also quoted a 28-year-old car salesman named Tony Lopez, who said "It was hilarious to see him give it to the media. The media's problem is that they keep wanting to make up stories so that he looks bad. It doesn't work. He's talking right through you guys."
The Post also spoke to a 42-year-old Cameroonian immigrant who believed that Trump had saved coal miners' jobs: "If he hadn't gotten into office, 70,000 miners would have been put out of work. I saw the ceremony where he signed that bill, giving them their jobs back, and he had miners with their hard hats and everything — you could see how happy they were."
Of course, Trump supporters did not have a reputation for being calm during the 2016 campaign. One New York Times article reported rallies that included chants of "Kill her!" "Trump that bitch!" and "Build a wall — kill them all!" In that context, stories about a Trump opponent stating in a Craigslist posting for a roommate that Trump supporters need not apply seem mild by comparison.
At the same time, as The New York Times reported, people who have been on the fence about Trump often say they wind up supporting him due to the attitudes they perceive from liberals.
"We're backed into a corner," a 46-year-old small business owner told The Times. "There are at least some things about Trump I find to be defensible. But they are saying: 'Agree with us 100 percent or you are morally bankrupt. You're an idiot if you support any part of Trump.'"
As he summited up, "I didn't choose a side. They put me on one."
Bryce Youngquist, a 34-year-old salesman from California, argued that "the name calling from the left is crazy." He also pointed out that liberals "were making me want to support him more with how irrational they were being."
Ann O'Connell, a 72-year-old registered Democrat who abandoned the party over what she felt was an inordinate emphasis on identity politics, complained that "the Democratic Party has changed so much that I don't even recognize it anymore. These people are destroying our democracy. They are scarier to me than these Islamic terrorists. I feel absolutely disgusted with them and their antics. It strengthens people's resolve in wanting to support President Trump. It really does."
As the article also pointed out, a Pew Research Center poll found that Trump has a 70 percent approval rating among Republican-leaning moderates.

This canister of gumballs contains little marble blueberry gums, and there are occasional white color gums that are yogurt flavored. You can't tell by the color of the hard candy shell, but some of the blueberry gums are actually a little bit sour. You can blow bubbles with this but you gotta eat like 1/3 of the container to get a decent sized one going. This is a fun one and I really enjoy the packaging a lot, makes for a great gift.

Press Release, MOFA, NPT, 25th January 2013on 24/02/2013 at 6:39 PM
The Government of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar
Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Press Release
- The Embassy of the United States of America in Yangon issued a Press Release about the armed conflicts in Kachin State on January 24, 2013.
- The government is endeavoring in good faith to achieve cease-fire and peace agreement with all ethnic armed groups with the aim of national reconciliation and national unity. As a result, peace agreements have been achieved at various stages with all ethnic armed groups except KIO/KIA.
- The peace door remains open for the KIO/KIA and the government has repeatedly invited them to the peace talks. As the President has ordered the Tatmadaw to cease military actions in Kachin State on January 19, 2013, the Tatmadaw forces followed the instructions of the President. Likewise, the KIA/KIO also needs to reciprocate in the same manner.
- Although Myanma Tatmadaw has ceased all military operations against KIA, the KIA has constantly attacked Tatmadaw troops. Therefore,
- the Tatmadaw troops had to react for self-defense.
- Immediately following the President's instruction to cease all offensive operations, the KIA troops attacked Tatmadaw military column with strong forces near Ja Mai village in Lweje Township, and a military camp near Phakhant. Kar Mine Police Station was raided and destroyed. Two Gems company buildings in Phakhant Township were torched, civilians were abducted and a civilian vehicle was exploded by a landmine laid by the KIA near Nam-Um village on Muse-Lashio mortorway.
- As KIA troops have constantly launched such terrorist attacks, the Tatmadaw had to take military actions just to protect and safeguard the peace and tranquility of the community and for the prevalence of law and order. The Government has been issuing press releases from time to time on every account of the events, in order to provide true information to the public.
- Although the Government has been exerting such efforts for the national unity and peace, the US Embassy press release has mentioned the
- continuation of Myanmar Tatmadaw's military offensive in the vicinity of KIA's Headquarters and its strong opposition quoting sources from some media and NGOs. The press release could cause misunderstanding in the international community as it did not me ntion anything about terrorist actions and atrocities committed by the KIA against the innocent people, destruction of life and property an d abduction, but on the other hand, elaborating the events as if on ly the Myanmar Government and the Tatmadaw launched the offensive. Myanmar strongly objects and rejects such statement.
- During his visit to Myanmar on 19 November 2012, and also at the ASEAN-US Summit held in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, on 20 November 2012, President Obama duly addressed the Republic of the Union of Myanmar as "Myanmar".
- Myanmar strongly objects the usage of the words "Burma", "Burmese Government" and "Burmese Military" in the US Embassy' s press release not properly using the name recognized by the United Nations and the whole international community, which are not in line with the international ethics. Myanmar hopes that the US Embassy will avoid in future actions that may affect mutual respect, mutual understanding and cooperation which have recently been restored between the two countries.
- The Government of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar reiterates that it is ready to join hands with all nationalities including KIO/KIA to build peace and national reconsolidation.

It may seem very early to be thinking about Christmas, but the key to good child care is often forward planning, which will allow you to get the best for your kids. The last-minute rush to complete Christmas shopping is often desperately hectic, with millions of shoppers on the streets nationwide, and the price of children's gifts soars as peak season approaches. The stress of the last-minute rush can exhaust you and damage your parenting. Get organised early not only with home-made presents, but even with these great gift ideas.
Building Blocks
For young children, something that allows them to build and create, such as Duplo, wooden train track or simple building blocks is ideal. Small children can be absorbed for hours in the worlds they imagine with the help of a few basic toys like these. Instead of purchasing dozens of flimsy plastic toys, invest in a few high-quality and hard-wearing wooden presents, which can be passed down from sibling to sibling and eventually stored away for grandchildren.
Get them reading
Books make presents which are as entertaining as they are educational. Most of us remember a picture book from our early years which we still treasure, and older readers with favourite series will pounce avidly on the newest book and read it under the table at Christmas lunch. A number of really good books are available in many online stores for your convenience.
Things they need
Necessities such as new socks and underwear can be dressed up as presents, adding excitement on Christmas morning without adding clutter to your home. Think of so many necessary items to wrap up – for example, notebooks for school, toiletries or a new pair of shoes. Just make sure that these items would really appeal to kids' interests.
Creativity and fun
Inexpensive items that get used up make ideal presents, since they are easy on your bank balance and won't clutter the house forever. Bottles of bubble-blowing mixture are a perfect example. They cost pennies and children will be fascinated by the beautiful bubbles, and encouraged to play outside. Poster paints are also inexpensive and encourage children to be imaginative and artistic.
Things for you
Improve your child care abilities by buying your children presents which you can take advantage of too. For example, buy them a box of chocolates and then encourage them to display good manners by offering them round; buy them a CD of music that you will enjoy, or book tickets for a day trip that you really want to go on too. After all, all that effort means that you deserve a treat, and your children will be delighted if you seem as excited as they are on Christmas day!
Even if Christmas is still a few months away, there is no better way to welcome the season than by preparing early, as this would ensure your smooth and really happy holidays. Moreover, it would also allow you to save as much resources as possible.

The Feel-Good Guide to Sports, Travel, Shopping & Entertainment
Molten Fudge Cake
For the Fudge Sauce
1-1/2 cups hot coffee
1/3 cup cocoa powder, Dutch-processed is best regular is fine
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
¼ cup white granulated sugar
For the Cake
6 Tbs. unsalted butter
1/3 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
¾ cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
½ cup white granulated sugar
1 Tbs. pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup milk, half and half or cream
1 large egg yolk
1. Preheat oven to 325º. Spray an 8-inch square glass baking dish lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
2. For the Fudge Sauce: In a 2 cup glass measuring cup with a spout combine hot coffee, brown sugar, ¼ cup white granulated sugar and 1/3 cup cocoa powder. Stir until well combined and everything is dissolved; set aside.
3. For the Cake: Melt butter and chocolate chips together in the top of a double boiler, or in a small glass bowl set over a small pot of slow simmering water. When melted add 1/3 cup cocoa powder and stir until smooth; remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
4. In a small bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt; stir until well incorporated and set aside.
5. In a medium bowl whisk together ½ cup white granulated sugar with the vanilla, milk and egg yolk. Add the melted chocolate/butter mixture and whisk until well combined. Add the flour mixture and whisk until flour is incorporated, do not over mix at this point.
6. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Do one last stir of the fudge sauce to make sure everything is evenly incorporated.
7. Now heres a strange step, but none the less it is the key to the Molten Fudge; pour the fudge sauce evenly and gently over the entire pan of batter.
8. Bake in the center of the oven for approximately 45 minutes. It is important not to over bake it. It will not really set in the center, but the sides of the top cake layer will pull away from the sides of the baking dish and the fudge sauce will be bubbly.
9. Place the baking dish on a wire rack to cool for about 25-30 minutes. It is best served warm at this stage with your favorite vanilla ice cream. You may also reheat leftover Molten Fudge Cake covered in the microwave.
Helpful Hints:
If you have never had Molten Fudge Cake, get ready for a taste treat! This is amazing stuff. It is best described as a moist brownie served warm swimming in a pool of hot fudge with creamy vanilla ice cream. You cant get any better than that, my sweet tooth is drooling! Molten Fudge Cake has many aliases; it is also know as chocolate pudding cake, lava fudge cake, hot fudge brownie and probably many other things. Who cares what you call it; once you taste it, you will not forget it!
Molten Fudge Cake is not the dessert you want to serve when you are entertaining clients or having the boss over for dinner; this is one that is best reserved for when your favorite Aunt Dolores is visiting and you want to sit and gossip over dessert. It is a rustic humble dessert best served to people you love.

Microsoft Connect(); 2017
November 2017. New York City, Spring Studios
Microsoft hosted their three-day in-person and online developer event, Connect(); 2017, at Spring Studios in New York City.
Led by Microsoft Cloud and Enterprise Group EVP Scott Guthrie, Connect(); is a key communications event for the Microsoft developer community and functions as an annual platform for announcements and demo's in Cloud, DevOps, Mobile, Data, and AI. At Microsoft Connect(); developers are introduced to important new tools and services that enable them to build the apps and software programs of the future that will have a positive effect on people's lives. Spring Studios once again served as the ideal setting for an event dedicated to impact, innovation, and openness.
To balance the Keynote room's sun-filled space with the need to beautifully illustrate data-driven content, three large-scale, high-resolution LED screens were custom-built to fit within the existing window frames. An additional series of transparent columns were lit from within and created two "walls" on each side of the room, masking the extensive back of house space required to support the technical program in the open plan space while visually supporting Microsoft's themes of open-ness, flexibility and transparency. The same visual aesthetic was extended into every aspect of the event and incorporated radiating graphics and HUD interface elements, communicating that "information is everywhere."

Police: Man Wearing Creepy, 'Realistic' Mask Passes School Bomb Threats Note At Restaurant, In Hopes Of Robbing Local Bank
NORTH HUNTINGDON, Pa. (KDKA) - Police said a man wearing a realistic mask passed a note at a local restaurant that threatened a pair of local schools, with the intention of robbing a bank.
Officials said a man, identified as 35-year-old Luke Dell from Beavercreek's Ohio, walked into the Bob Evans on Route 30 in North Huntingdon Township on Tuesday wearing the mask.
He passed a note to a worker that said there was an active shooter threat and multiple bombs at Norwin and Jeannette High Schools, police said.
After passing the note, Dell was seen leaving the restaurant in a black Dodge Charger, which was later seen by a police officer.
Dell was pulled over and admitted he passed the note in order to get police officers to respond to the threats at the schools, officials said. Dell's license plate was stolen from another car.
WATCH: Video shows Luke Dell being arrested while wearing a realistic mask.
Police said Dell planned to rob a bank in the Circleville area. He never made it to the bank. No weapons or explosives were found in Dell's car.
The mask Dell wore made him look twice his age.
"The mask was a very high-quality mask, made him look like he was in his late 60s, early 70s when in fact he was a 35-year-old male," North Huntingdon Police Chief Robert Rizzo.
Dell is facing charges — including terroristic threats, risking catastrophe, threat to use weapons of mass destruction and left of a license plate.
As a precaution, all Norwin schools were on a modified lockdown as police investigated Tuesday morning. The lockdown was later lifted and high school students were dismissed early.
Before a suspect was located, the school district's website says the North Huntingdon Township Police Department advised a modified lockdown to be extended to all buildings in the district.
During a modified lockdown, children are not allowed to be dismissed to parents and parents are not allowed to enter the building.
Police and bomb-sniffing dogs searched the high school.

If you've been to Buffalo for an occasional sale weekend, you know that it can be exciting to have so many stores to visit. Previewing a few makes you appreciate the diverse goods and the common commitment to quality and style. Each store has a flavor all its own and you never know what you might find. Second Hand Rose and This & That have their own cul de sac on Soo Lane (a block south of Culver's on Hwy. 55) with a big alley filled with outdoor furniture and accessories. The other stores downtown are closer together for trekking around on foot. These photos are just a small sample of what you'll see Thursday – Sunday. Most stores are open 9 to 6 with shorter hours of 10 to 5 (or noon to 4) on Sunday. Please note that Patina General is offering discounted prices this weekend and next before they close their doors. Happy saling!

David Bowie
There are many things on my mind about David Bowie's passing yesterday. I am struck by the loss and the suddenness of it. Mr. Bowie knew it was coming and wanted to be private about it. Perhaps that is what makes, I should write made, him so special....Continue reading

One thing I never expected to see in the wrestling biz is the current of Christianity running through it. One of my foster families was really into Jesus and a couple of others were going through the motions, but half of them didn't say word one about the big man with the beard. It's not uncommon to see some dudes in a prayer circle before a show. For that matter neither are Christian-themed wrestling promotions – Ted Diabase had one I know, I think Sting did too. The Christian Wrestling Federation is still around I think because they blocked me on Twitter maybe a year ago.
I can understand it for the veterans – that makes sense to me. After some time in the biz you become a drug addict, commit a few sexual assaults, beat your girlfriend a couple times, get a bunch of DUIs, and eventually you either die or find Jesus. It's a pretty good deal, all you have to do is say you're sorry and Jesus forgives everything you did before. All the people you hurt – don't worry about it, Jesus saves. Faith washes all that away. Shawn Michaels is a good example of this.
But it's a little more perplexing with the younger guys. They haven't hit rock bottom yet so I'm not sure what their angle is. But what really confuses me is that some people think God has a plan and that everything happens according to that plan. And that makes them feel better. I don't get that. If I thought that this world is what God wanted, I would be fucking horrified. If you look around and think "yes, this is God's will" doesn't that mean God is the worst?
I saw some people praying before the show I worked last night. There was an English wrestler standing nearby whose accent was so weird I couldn't tell if he was participating in the religion or making fun of them right in front of them without anyone noticing. Accent isn't the right word because I could tell what he was saying, just the words made no sense to me. That's a dialect I guess. I guess that's the benefit of having an indecipherable way of speaking, no one knows when you're mocking them. But if they don't know does it matter?
I used to know this kid who would always flip people off behind their backs. I guess it makes you feel better. It's defiance of a low sort without any of the possibilities of retribution that real defiance brings. It's like when grown men shout abuse at children playing sports. I wonder how many times an adult has murdered a child because they missed a foul tip or didn't pass the ball to the right kid in crunch time at an 8th grade basketball game.
