I missed my stop to get off the struggle bus and now I've landed to still drunk in the morning ville.
— Chloe Ashworth (@CloverMarie214) August 6, 2013
And half of it doesn't even make sense so obviously I was still drunk. Yesterday sucked. Especially when I had to work. But it was good times and completely worth it. I got to hangout with my wife and we got trashed, like the light weights we are. I only consumed 3 longs islands, 2 bud light platinums, and a shot of patron. But it worked it's magic.
We started off at Applebees because they have 2-for-1s and half price apps after 9. I even took my new friend Cooper, who I created at build-a-bear, and he enjoyed some long islands too. I took to instagram to prove it. I don't usually bring stuffed animals with me everywhere I go but I knew it would get laughs so I did. Or wtf looks and that worked too. And brought me laughs.
|yes, he wears cowboy boots
I know we all just want to be skinny but I love food so much. So much. But I've decided that unless I'm eating my parmesan and shrimp sirloin from Applebees, I don't need to order food. We ordered too much and it was just ok.
|those pretzels aren't the greatest and they were a lot bigger than expected!
After that we came back home and continued to drink some more. Only this time we did it on my front porch while it rained. That was some of the loudest, most bangiest, thunder I've heard in a long time. It gave me heart attacks on occassion. We took too many selfies, laughed way to hard, and had in all around good time. I'm ready to do it again.
|only decent one and we still can't get it right.
|that's rain, not beer.
Sorry about the shitty quality, I don't have a good steady hand when I've been drinking. Just some of the classicness that is us. Wanna come hang out?
p.s. Drunk Chloe came out, she made me pee outside. More than once.

Today's issue of Broadcast focuses on what the various commissioners at ITV are looking for. Most of them say they don't want to be too prescriptive. The drama controller thinks there's room for more crime, as long as it doesn't include grizzled detectives, dead prostitutes and abused women.
Producers, publishers, and agents are often asked what they're looking for right now, and the only genuine answer is rather formless: something fresh and character-led. 'Character-led' means that the characters are well drawn, and we like them enough to care what happens to them. It's also important that what happens to them is interesting.
You have to take a conservative view of 'fresh': this often means a fresh angle on a well-known genre. It must not so far away from what an audience has seen recently that no one knows how to market it, but not something we feel we've now seen a hundred times. It's a tricky balance. 'Fresh' doesn't mean gimmicky, for instance, a grizzled detective who also happens to be in a wheelchair. One example might be Emma Adams' play, Ugly, about climate change. You'd think that commission was career suicide, but Emma looked at the issue from the point of view of how people treat each other when resources get scarce. Still bleak, but a dimension we haven't looked at much.
In this competitive world, a thoughtful creative choice means a writer is much more likely to get a commission.

Iran Arrests Entire Newspaper
In your overwhelmed Friday media column: Iran just arrests everyone, for reporting, Conde Nast's September prayers will not be answered, a new chairman at the FCC, and the Mark Sanford source remains at large.
The Iranian government is taking the direct approach to censorship: They arrested the entire staff of opposition candidate candidate Mir-Hossein Mousavi's newspaper. Reporters Without Borders says about 40 journalists in all have been arrested in Iran since the protests began. The Iranian government is run by jerks.
Conde Nast would really like Vogue to have a very strong September—traditionally the fattest month for fashion magazines—to help rescue the flailing company's finances. But Keith Kelly says that it doesn't look like it's going to happen this year. Vogue's biggest September issue ever came in 2007, when it had 727 ad pages; this year, the publisher's predicting "over 400 pages of advertising." Buy more fashion for the sake of the media!
Julius Genachowski has finally been confirmed as the new chairman of the FCC. He's a former venture capital guy, a close friend to Obama, a supporter of net neutrality, and generally not a moralizing wingnut, as was the standard at the FCC during the Bush years.
The South Carolina paper that broke the story of Mark Sanford's Argentinian affair spoke on how the hell they sat on the love-letter emails for six months without publishing: They emailed the addresses back and never got a response! So they couldn't confirm it. And we thought that level of investigative malaise was solely confined to the blogsphere! They also say they still don't know who tipped them off originally, which is really the most interesting remaining part of this story until the XXX photos come out.

Now You Can Wear the Queen's Lipstick
Our appetite for the royal family has certainly been whetted this week, just through adorable photo after adorable photo of Prince George and Princess Charlotte during a much-buzzed-about state visit to Canada. And yet, if it still doesn't feel quite enough in the way of vicarious living, Charlotte Tilbury has you covered. The makeup guru's newest lipstick launch is inspired by none other than Queen Elizabeth II herself.
Part of Tilbury's beloved Matte Revolution range, The Queen lipstick aptly feels both powerful and timeless. And of course, it's right on par with a shade that the monarch often wears herself—though perhaps this newest tube will somehow find its way to her royal vanity. (How meta would that be?)
But now for the most important question: What does the new hue actually look like? Keep scrolling to see.
The stately hue is a blue-based cerise, a color that happens to be universally flattering. (We can all be royalty!) And as with all shades in the Matte Revolution collection, the formula is fortified with oils and antioxidants that pamper your pout as you wear it—without ever drying it out.
What do you think of the new shade? Sound off in the comments below.

Oh those words that let us know that others care
Funny how they have different thoughts each year
I thought of a friend that is celebrating today
And wonder what each that messages has to say.
When we are a child, people pinch our cheek and smile
They wish us a birthday wish and care, no denial
The wishes mean they care so much that we are to grow
No other care in the world except to let us know.
Middle aged we find a slight change in the meaning
As if the wishes are there to help us in reasoning
They wonder "Did you have to bake your on cake?"
With family and friends coming, you have dinner to make.
At my age it seems that they are in wonder and awe
"Wow, you made another year" is what it feels they saw
So as you think of me…

HP expands digital imaging category of devices
HP, the world's top computer maker, has just introduced five more point-and-shoot digital cameras alongside a trio of camcorders for the masses, where they will come with a range of features including LCD displays, up to 5X optical zoom and fashionable colors. Among the digital cameras and camcorders on offer, selected models will boast touchscreen LCD displays for that added touch of modernization. With a new intuitive user interface to make things even more idiot proof than ever before, you will also find that a high color contrast does a whole lot in helping one experience better visibility when browsing through menus and faced with a choice of more than 25 scene modes to snap the best quality images possible.
Take for instance when you select a scene mode – the display will show off a couple of images, where one is how the photo will look in auto mode while the other depicts how it looks in the selected scene mode. This offers one the ability to make the best shooting choice possible thanks to this smart preview option, but it ought to cause a hit on one's battery life in the long run, not to mention being slower in snapping photos since you will need to do a double take each time round. As for the premium HP CW450t and HP PW460t point-and-shoot digital cameras, they come with a 2.7″ and 3″ LCD touchscreen displays, respectively, alongside a newly designed touch interface, sharing a 4X optical zoom and SDHC memory cards. You will need to fork out $109 for the CW450t, while the PW460t is going for $149.
As for the newest HP touchscreen digital camcorders, the V5061u and V5560u will come with easy-to-view 3″ LCD touchscreen displays, 1,080p high-definition (HD) recording and motion-detection capabilities. Not only that, the V5560u goes one up with 5X optical zoom and a lithium-ion battery, while the V5061u relies on the SDHC memory card format to store all of your favorite digital memories. Should the lithium-ion battery remain uncharged, there is always the alternative of shoving in AA batteries to keep the camcorder running. Interested? The V5560u and V5061u will retail for $199 and $169, respectively.

Oil Paint on Canvas
9" x 12"
During my short time back in my hometown, when I went to help my father set up his social media sites, I was able to spare a bit of time to visit my cousin Christiane and her family. Christiane and I have been close my entire life. She was four years old when I was born and she just fell in love with me. She would drag me around everywhere and we've been best cousins ever since. Nowadays, with me living in Toronto, we barely get to see each other. It was so nice to see her, her husband Calvin, and OF COURSE my two nephews Simon and Jeremy! The cost of travel is too high so this was my first time meeting Jeremy; what a treat! They are such a beautiful family. :)
You can imagine how excited I was when Christiane and Calvin commissioned me to paint a portrait of my nephew Simon! He is such an adorable "little man"; as I like to call him. So smart and mature. Absolutely adorable. I believe originally Christiane hoped to have a series painted of all her children to be put up in the bedroom and I think that is such a lovely idea. I hope they love their portrait!

Weirdly enough all my stuffed animals are in my old room with me. It feels a bit odd to have them here, because they belong to my current room. Well, they needed some washing so there is that. Now they smell fresh and will be travelling back with me in two days.
In the mean time I did some writing on the book he and the TV show he showed me inspired. I've been able to sense the perfume I'm wearing all day. It's not the same as the one I think of right now but it brings me back to a time when you decided weirdly enough to pick my favorite one and spray it on your black T-shirt. Then we watched a movie and you made me lie close to you or directly on you so that I'd be able to sense my own damn perfume on you. Whenever I smell it, it always brings back the feel of the soft cloth under my fingers warmed up by your skin underneath and the taste of coffee that I got from your lips. You know, I don't remember much of the movie but hiding for the (not so) scary part and having your hands in my hair was one of the most vivid memories I get. And the weird way you made me kiss you by asking me if I'd do everything you do and kissing me. No, it was actually proving that I won't do it. Then you pulled back and kept watching the movie as if nothing happened. Well, it did. So I kissed you back, of course. I can't decide if that's how it all started or if it was when we first met and you threw sugar at me and I noticed the way your eyes gave that spark of fire I told you about. They still do sometimes like in that favorite picture of mine which you refused to upload.
It feels a bit strange to be remembering stuff that happened half a year ago as vividly as if they happened yesterday and I won't be able to ever forget what sleeping in your arms felt like for that first night and how happy and scared I felt when I got up the next they, told you goodbye and started to get ready for work. I remember smelling the perfume again and remembering it all over again, wondering if it actually happened. I know we talked back then and I knew how scared and uncertain you were. I wish I'd stopped it all back then. But I also remember how I didn't actually start it. You did. An interesting idea comes to my sick and twisted mind at the thought of this. You were the one who kept it going and who also kept saying it's nothing. What if I did the same to you? I wonder if that will keep you up at night thinking of me the way I think of you more often than I'd ever care to admit. You wanted me not to trick you, which means I can easily do that. Otherwise you wouldn't have warned me. And trust me, I'd never do anything to hurt you. But this... Well it could fix us both if you have enough faith. I know I do.
I'd have already started drinking coffee just to remember what kissing you felt like if only it wouldn't make me crazy. Well, not that I am too sane now.

NovelOpinion's Review of Sue's Fingerprint0
Please take the time to visit Tammy's review of Sue's Fingerprint at her NovelOpinion Blog. Her review is spot-on!
Tammy correctly understood my intent in writing my book and it's message. Here's an excerpt from her review:
This type of story is my favorite type of Science Fiction. An event that produces extraordinary results which could prove disasterous. A team of scientists experimenting, speculating and debating the purpose of the event and the government trying to conceal and control it. In the case of Sue's Fingerprint, the presence of the clones poses the obvious risk of panic. The unknown is an automatic enemy and the people closest to these clones are rightfully wary however, with time, they cannot see anything other than human behavior and emotion from them.
The story becomes a type of analogy to human rights. Rights of the innocent. In the case of the clones, are they genetically different from their original counterpart? If not, then do we have the right to lock them up and treat them as the enemy?
I have to give the concept of this story a 4+ star rating. The 3.5 star final rating is due to the lack of complexity in some of the characters. I also found the telling of the story to be a bit simplistic as well.
Having said that, I have worked with several people in the scientific community. Oftentimes these men and women tend to dumb things down a bit for us regular folk. Andrew D. Carlson has an extensive background in science and there is a possibility that that is the case.
In conclusion I like where Mr. Carlson is going. This is his debut novel, there was meat in the story. I am going to be watching him because I have a feeling he is going to be one of my favorites.
I recommend this to all fictions lovers, science and other!
Please visit Tammy's blog and follow her reviews. Thanks!

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011) – Revenge Flick Meets Scooby Doo….
[This review contains major spoilers]
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is in trouble right from the start. Anyone going into David Fincher's fast-tracked remake of the Swedish hit will be aware of current 007 Daniel Craig's marquee presence, and the flashy CGI title sequence seems like a Fight Club-esque, torture porn piss-take of a classic James Bond intro. It also features a horrendous cover of Led Zeppelin's Immigrant Song, one of two disastrous music choices in the movie.
Superficially a grungy, modern thriller with controversial scenes of rape and sexual degradation, the sordid details providing a smoke screen for what is actually a very pedestrian old fashioned locked room mystery. Some of the creaky, cliche-ridden plot revelations wouldn't look out of place in an episode of Scooby Doo.
Daniel Craig plays Mikael Blomqvist, a Swedish journalist who just got clobbered in a libel case brought against him by a powerful and corrupt businessman. After an intrusive background check perpetrated by punk cyber hacker and researcher Lisbeth Salander (Rooney Mara), Blomqvist is approached by magnate Henrik Vanger (Christopher Plummer) with a special assignment.
Ostensibly summoned to Vanger's island home in the north of Sweden to write the elderly tycoon's biography, Blomqvist is tasked with solving the disappearance of Henrik's grand-niece Harriet forty years before. She vanished from a family gathering while everyone was distracted by a car accident on the bridge, the island's only link to dry land.
Moving into a cottage on the island, Blomqvist begins sifting through Henrik's old files in search of clues, and turns up the missing girl's diary, and is intrigued by a list of names in the back, with mysterious numbers next to them.
Blomqvist hires Lisbeth as a researcher after learning of her sterling work researching him previously, and she soon helps him crack the case.
The mystery element of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo moves the film very quickly into B movie territory. For starters, there aren't many suspects, and one of them is played by Steven Berkoff. Berkoff has made a career playing baddies, so surely he can't be the baddie in an intelligent thriller such as this? Unless it's a double bluff, of course…
Once Henrik falls ill, the list of suspects shortens further, but it doesn't take a lot to work it out. In an earlier scene, Henrik is showing Blomqvist about the island, pointing out where each of his family members lives – the Vanger politics are rather dysfunctional, and although they hate each other, they all still live on the same little island.
If horror and mystery movies have taught us one thing, it is: if you are looking for the bad guy, try the house on the hill first. Perhaps his lights will be burning eerily through the night, a la chez Bates in Psycho, or even MacMurphy's shack in The Thing. But if you're looking for the baddie, head for the high ground.
The island only has one entrance, and it seems for a while that Blomqvist will be thrillingly cut off from the outside world. After all, it's snowing and he can't get a signal on his mobile.
That idea is quickly discarded as Blomqvist and Lisbeth dive into their investigation, which involves a lot of looking up things on the internet and sifting through old photographs. This is hardly exciting, and stretches credibility further, as they pick up clues which no-one investigating the case over the previous forty years has noticed.
Once the killer is rumbled, the film is locked so fully in to B-movie cliches that the psycho can't resist a good old fashioned expositionary speech before gutting Blomqvist in the custom built abattoir in his basement.
This is made doubly amusing by the fact he's making an expositionary speech to the man currently playing James Bond, something Austin Powers lampooned so brilliantly. And trebly amusing by the villain putting the gun down, right where the audience can see it, presumably because he needs more hands to gesticulate with.
The killer dallies further by putting on his Enya CD, perhaps the least terrifying music choice for a murder scene ever, although Orinco Flow does qualify as torture. At least, I think that's what I heard…or did I just dream it?
There is one final pause before the killer slices Blomqvist up, as he reveals that he too was abused as a child…he couldn't just be a sick nutter who enjoys murdering people. And before he gets chance to say, "No Mr Blomqvist, I expect you to die…after I've told you about my childhood…" Lisbeth sneaks up behind him and buries a seven iron in his mush.
Other gripes include a distracting level of product placement. We're all familiar with character in Hollywood movies using Apple Macs for everything from solving murders to hacking into alien motherships, but this goes above and beyond. Coca Cola, Epson Printers and even Marlboro cigarettes are blatantly plugged during this movie.
My more serious concern about The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is the muddled approach to the disturbing sexual violence in the film. The abuse heaped on Lisbeth by her legal guardian Bjurman simply isn't equaled out. I've read Lisbeth being hailed as a feminist hero, but she's only that as a counterweight to what looks distressingly like someone's rape fantasy.
The film's anal rape scene is lingered over with leering, hairy-handed, lip-smacking detail. Even when Bjurman has Lisbeth handcuffed face down on the bed, he has to say: "I forgot to ask – do you like anal sex?" just to make it absolutely certain which hole he's planning to violate.
When Lisbeth exacts her revenge, it feels like we've skipped back a couple of decades to Michael Winner's grubby feminist revenge fantasy, Dirty Weekend. The film chickens out at this point. While we quite graphically get to see the rapist eating Lisbeth's ass, the camera coyly shies away from showing any male nudity other than chest and belly.
Later, when Lisbeth finally gets to enjoy some consensual sex with Daniel Craig, the film gets it wrong again. It tries to be smart and reverse the roles – after Blomqvist suffers a traumatic moment, Lisbeth suggests he gets out of those wet clothes – yes, that old chestnut.
Blomqvist obliges, but primly keeps his underpants on. Next thing, we get a gratuitous eyeful of Lisbeth, full frontal and riding him on the bed, slipping his pants off when she's on top to prevent the big headlining male star from having his todger on display.
It's a nice change to have the man play the damsel in distress, and you might charitably praise Daniel Craig for playing against type as the frankly pathetic Blomqvist. Or, if you're not feeling charitable, you could say he was horribly miscast.
There are two things which prevent The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo from being a laughably turgid, unimaginatively plotted, and questionably motivated murder mystery thriller.
One is the relatively unknown Rooney Mara as Lisbeth. Abused throughout her life, she is distant and haunted, and focuses all her rage into exacting devastating revenge. With her harshly cut hair and multiple piercings, she keeps the world at bay with her deliberately prickly appearance. She never lets her guard down, even when admitting to Blomqvist she likes working with him, or using him to get herself off. And Mara never once winks to the camera to let you know she's acting.
The other thing that saves the film, perversely, is it's bloated running time. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is the same length as The Bridge on the River Kwai. Not as much happens in Girl as Kwai, but the epic length at least tricks you into feeling it must have some kind of substance, some kind of weight, if it's that long.
That monster running time also gives David Fincher time to run his icy fingers up and down your spine. As usual, Fincher's camera stalks around the movie like an axe murderer looking for his next victim, creating a sense of palpable dread. His usual palette of murky blacks and tobacco browns completes Fincher's usual filthy worldview.
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, despite its reprehensible failings, is still a must watch – it's the perfect film for a pub debate.

Staring into the Fail
Wow. I'm typing this in OpenOffice. I know there's a lot of OO users out there but I'm impressed. As my bf says, Ubuntu is an adventure! Woo.
Man, it's hard for me to shift gears. Where does this stubbornness come from? Modeling of the parents synthesized with years of practice, compounded by a good portion of ethnic character (Dutch - "woodenheads" in the parlay of Chesterville, ON, Canada)?
Why am I typing instead of drawing? Why can I not shut off the Ubuntu and plug in the Mac? Why, why, why, do I always drag my feet – refusing to do something if I've made a plan: hell, it's as if I view myself or any plans I make as "The Boss" - the authority figure who must be hated, ignored and/or thwarted. What is wrong with me?
Do I really love that big lump of emotional pain in my stomach so much?
I cannot even now say "Malcolm, enough!" It's a fear of speed, I think: a fear that if I act without deliberation, I'll smack into a wall, or be clipped by another human being standing by the road holding a pole out at head level. I'll be fooled, taken advantage of, made a fool of, if not by myself, by someone else.
Right now, I am trying very hard not to be angry; not to force action out of myself. Does that make sense? I'm holding on to some sort of equilibrium.
I am not crying, nor am I angry. It's kind of weird because usually, when I'm trying to work, I'm annoyed by outside noises – like the music from the cars of the high school students as they park on the street in front of my house, between me and their school.
Usually, these sounds annoy me but right now, they exhilarate me! OMG, can I finally stand outside noise when I work? Is it possible that I'm on to something? (SMACK! - this would be the pole of another human being making fun of me for caring about something so inconsequential.)
"Excuse me kind sir with the pole, just want you to know that you haven't done any real damage. I'm sure you are concerned about that."
Gulp. That would be Jesus in action, wouldn't it? That dude was so fucking smart. It's too bad the Christians have co-opted him and turned him into such a doofus: "Jesus is God, while we are Not God; he is Holy, while we are Not Holy."
He's God and human, Christians - get it? So are you!
So I am thoughtful, reserved and noncommittal.
The silence in my room is quite astounding. The peace. I am holding myself still, like I did all those times growing up: listening to the blood in my veins and the sounds of my environment: there are so many, I can choose what I hear.
Well, I can't choose them all... But if you listen to anything long enough, detached and serene, you can hear a lot more in it than what the sound maker intends... You can hear echoes and tiny differences from one hammer hit to another... You can tell the man whether he's hitting with precision or whether he's sloppy; interested or just getting the job done... Hell, if you listened long enough, you might even be able to tell him what he had for breakfast and what he's thinking about.
Ok, time to start with the drawing.

But then that would mean that only physically strong people can use CoA and only agile or focus-based characters can use CoO, I want everyone to have the ability to learn them.
Also, checked out Safebooru. Nothing but stereotypical anime girls in bikinis and cat ears. Not for me.
Oh yeah, didn't think that far. ^^
Though right now I don't see why there can't be 5th stat, Haki, which could be trained and combinet in same way as Agility or Power for example.

MCI Communications Corp. may soon be ditching its 1-800 MUSIC NOW service.
Although executives at the company wouldn't comment on the future of the service, MCI spokesman Mark Pettit said, "We're not as happy as we'd like to be and it may not be the way to reach consumers at this time. We're evaluating the situation now."
Since its launch a year ago, MCI has never disclosed sales for the service, which allows consumers to sample and buy music via the telephone and a Web site. The telecommunications giant spent well over $10 million on a national print, TV and radio ad campaign tagged "You call. You listen. You like. You buy." Messner Vetere Berger McNamee Schmetterer/Euro RSCG, New York, handles.
"We're not just launching a new product or service," said MCI's President of Marketing Angela Dunlap last year at the launch party, a swank affair held at New York's Rockefeller Center. "We're establishing a new category for music retailing."
Finding new ways to sell music via interactive means is on the minds of many entertainment industry giants. The next one to make a big splash in the arena could be Blockbuster Ent-ertainment.
While Blockbuster's Web site now offers only content ranging from entertainment news to resources and custom destination maps, its goal is to allow customers to sample music and videos. By early next year, the company hopes to let customers purchase music products online, followed by videos and books, said Cici Kelly, Blockbuster's director of marketing and promotion for online.
"It's just another store for our customers," Ms. Kelly said, "and we'll continue to grow it and build it just like we would a regular store location."
Blockbuster definitely needs some help. Video rentals have flattened and sales at the company's more than 500 music stores also have not performed to expectations.
Ms. Kelly, who works with a staff of 18 in the year-old online division, believes the timing is right.
"It's a necessity in moving toward the future," she said. "If you sit back and just wait to see what's going to happen, you miss the boat. We are participating. We don't really know what to expect from a commerce site. But our goal is to offer our customers another avenue to shop or obtain information."
Blockbuster earlier this month signed deals with Sprint and Lycos to create the Sprint Internet Passport-Blockbuster Edition. The product logs subscribers onto the Internet using Sprint's connection, and uses the Blockbuster navigational site as its home page.
Blockbuster is giving away some 1.5 million copies of the CD-ROM software free with any purchase or rental at Blockbuster video and music stores nationwide. A national campaign, from Sprint agency J. Walter Thompson USA, San Francisco, began running earlier this month in 55 U.S. markets, and the promotion will last through yearend.

|IM's James Morris (hoodied) and Max Illingworth at Hjorth Memorial
However, the games that are being played are interesting and exciting. The big favourite for the event is International Master James Morris. James had a great tournament at the weekend in the Hjorth Memorial at the Melbourne Chess Club, finishing second only to current Australian Champion Max Illingworth. Max had an amazing tournament and is clearly of Grand Master level, so it is certainly no disgrace to finish second to him. James took a bye in round and then scored 7/8 losing only to Illingworth.
At Glen Eira this week, we had the match up FM Dragicevic-IM Morris. The game was a French, and it only took minor inaccuracies from Domagoj Dragicevic to allow James to blast open th eposition to his advantage. Once ahead, James is very difficult to stop, and he converted the game comfortably. The standings after 4 rounds are:
Carl Gorka (ME!!) 3/3
IM James Morris 2/2
FM Domagoj Dragicevic 2/3 (Bye)
Rebecca Strickland 1.5/3
Jerzy Krysiak 1/4
Rad Chmiel 1/3 (Bye)
Josh Moore 1/2 (Bye)
Sarah Anton 0/1 (Bye)
With a lot of make up games to play, these standings don't mean too much but I'm always happy to be on top of a tournament table. With FM Domagoj Dragicevic coming up next week, my stint at the top could well be in danger!
The Reserves event running alongside the Championship is looking like a Glen Eira Junior Championship with young talents Daniel Poberezovsky and Max Phillips leading the field. While Max has been a talent for some time now, Daniel certainly seems to be catching up, along with a bunch of up and coming juniors in the area.
|James Morris doesn't do too bad in the neat writing competition.

This is the Platinum Riviere PTR-200 fountain pen. It was made for Daiso, a 100-yen shop, the Japanese equivalent of dollar stores, in a chinese factory. There are also Daiso shops on the US East coast that sell them for around $1.50US. More stores can be found in some parts of Australia, Canada, Malaysia, Singapore and South Korea. There is a much nicer Platinum Riviere pen but this bargain one is labeled PTR-200 indicating a retail price point around 200 yen. I found it on ebay ranging from $3 to $15. I was able to get one new shipped from California for just over $3 including shipping.
They are made in 3 colors that I know of, black, blue and red. I chose the blue version but would have been happy with any of them. The steel nib has the easily recognized "P" that is also on the Preppy and Preppy PN-900 as well as a few other Platinum pens. The nib is more of a traditional fountain pen nib shape than the clear plastic Preppy. They come with a single Platinum cartridge with ink corresponding to the clip and accents of the pen you choose.
The nib indicates it is a medium and after some work it writes as such. At first it was a bit scratchy and wrote a bit more like a fine but after a few flex sessions it opened up a bit. It's still a bit scratchy but not as bad as it was at first. The pen body is ivory with printing in blue along with the section and a tip at the back end of the pen. The clip is a lighter translucent blue. The clip also seats into the cap through an interesting opening in the top of the cap.
The cap is a snap on variety and the section screws into the body. Once you open the pen you attach the cartridge to section with some force at it will seat flush with the section as opposed to some others that seat into the section
This is a solid pen at $1.50-$5US all things considered. It is a cartridge convertor and the nib is decent. The pen plastic isn't perfectly rigid but it seems thick enough and not brittle or prone to cracks or breaking. The body is all plastic but not a single piece. That being said I have seen reports of people making these into eyedroppers. I would try to seal around the end cap and use silicone grease on the threads. I don't have a Platinum convertor but the cartridges can be refilled with an appropriately sized eyedropper or syringe. I would likely still chose the Platinum Preppy over this one but that's not a knock on this pen. At about the same price to a bit cheaper it is a good buy worth checking out.

FAMOUS BOMBERS OF WORLD WAR II. Famous Planes puts you in the cockpit of the greatest military aircraft ever flown. These all action profiles feature dramatic combat footage, thrilling close up color footage, and interviews with the men who flew these famous planes.
-- Consolidated Vultee B-24 "Liberator" Originally designed in 1939, the "Liberator" was first deployed in 1940 by the British. After successive design changes it was finally adopted by the USAAF as a long range bomber and saw extensive use in the European theater of operations. A total of 19,000 B-24s was built during the war.
--Martin B-26 "Marauder": The "Marauder" first flew in February 1940. Its first military deployment was in April 1942 in Australian theater of operations. Designed to be a medium range bomber, more than 5,000 were built and deployed during the war.
-- Boeing B-29 "Superfortress" - Used primarily in the Pacific theater of operations, the B-29 "Superfortress" was designed as a long range heavy bomber capable of reaching the Japanese islands from bases in China and the Pacific. The B-29 had a bomb capacity of more than 20,000 pounds and a range of more than 4,000 miles. Heavily armed, it was designed to operate without fighter escort.
-- North American B-25 "Mitchell" First flown in 1940, the "Mitchell" saw extensive use in both the Pacific and European theaters of operations. A medium bomber, it carried a payload of 2,000 pounds and was heavily armed. The B-25 was used in the Dolittle raid on Tokyo, the first American bombing raid on Japan.

Making the decision between sticks or stones in the garden
It started with a query from Ken.
"Donna, if I recall, you are not a fan of using cloth under stones in a walk to prevent weeds from coming up amongst the stones. I laid down some cloth, but must have bought a factory defect where they accidentally embedded grass seed in the cloth. Less than a week after I put the cloth down, grass was coming up. I am thinking of using a soil sterilizer."
Like ticks on deer, roots attach to landscape fabric with a talon grip. So, I reiterated to Ken I never use cloth or landscape fabric because germinating grass roots stick to it, making weeds hard to remove.
Instead of fabric and stones, I use a lot of cardboard and bark in my garden because I always reuse before I recycle. Also, a cardboard layer between the soil and the wood mulch slows down weeds. Over time, as the bark crumbles into compost, I add extra chipped wood.
Cardboard stops weeds because it stops the light from hitting the soil, and some weeds need light to sprout. Once weeds appear, it is simple to pull them out of the bark and cardboard because they have nothing to grab on to.
I like wood mulch, but Ken's problem is with stones. And adding bark between stones is messy. Stones are never going to break down. The trouble is soil blows in, leaves fall and become compost, and within a short period, birds drop and wind blows in weed seeds. As weeds grow, they get stuck in the fabric. Weeds don't just hang their hat in fabric. They hang on – for life.
Yet I still don't want Ken or anyone to use soil sterilizers. Adding non-specific chemicals to the soil this way is like pouring antibiotics in your salad instead of washing the lettuce.
Chemicals in soil cause problems of their own. They drift and cause trouble in the water table, rivers and gardens as they move during heavy rains. Instead of fabric or soil sterilizers, I suggest that Ken consider a permanent hard surface if he wants to use stepping stones or landscape blocks or tiles. He can simply lay a shallow skim coat of concrete in place under the large rocks, letting the cement squeeze up between them. If he likes fine rocks, or the look of gravel with the permanence of concrete, a paving company can install exposed aggregate.
It seems a bit early in the season, but Ken's email was coming from his winter home in Mexico. So, for Ken, who gardens in paradise, and to anyone who is planning to garden in Calgary, my advice is the same: Gardens are a work in progress. If you like the ongoing puttering of gardening, use products like cardboard and mulch. If you like to do a job and be done with it forever, use concrete.

A Summer Saviour Mac Studio Fix Plus Powder
Affiliate links used help me to keep my blog running at no cost to my reader.
I love the way makeup can really change my mood, a little pick me up that can change how my day goes down. I was search mode looking at every Youtube video possible to find a foundation that could handle hot Summer days without melting off my face. As a big fan of Wayne Goss I watched his videos & decided I needed it! When I finally got round to Mac on a day it wasn't swarmed with girls I picked up Mac Studio Fix Powder Plus.
Why Mac
I choose Mac over other brands I'd seen on Youtube because of their shade range. I have very pale skin which often is too light for pharmacy (drugstore) foundations. The Studio Fix Power has a massive 49 shades. I can't even think of another brand that offers that kind of choice.
Mac Studio Fix Plus
I do like that when Mac isn't so busy they have staff on hand who know a bit more about the products they offer. They will helps to shade match you or direct you to products that you might not have considered. I know this is a sales tactic but it's one that is more often beneficial to customers. I can try the makeup on before I buy it & know if it looks right or not. The shade I bought was NW10.
I've often used a powder to set a liquid foundation but this is first for me to use it alone. I always thought that a powder foundation would be too light but this is very much buildable. The brush above is the one I use with it, it's actually an Eco Tools blush brush. The smaller head means I can apply an all over light coverage then go back in where I need it most. On very lazy days I leave my cheeks with a sheer layer instead of apply blush as they're pretty darn rosy to begin with.
It's a really finely milled powder so I don't end up a cakey mess. I top up through the day with the powder puff provided that sits neatly in the case beneath the powder. This feels comfortable to wear & feels light as if it wasn't there. While I still learn what my own techniques are I find the Urban Decay Setting Spray perfect for those moments when I've gone a little overboard . I've also started applying my concealer first underneath this particular foundation like invisible coverage.
I like that it's more travel friendly even to the point of using the powder puff for full application. When on an overnight stay keeping the packing as light as possible is essential!

The 'Rock of Ages' actor ties the knot with his fiancee in an intimate ceremony and celebrates it with family and friends in an indian-themed party.
Russell Brand is married for the second time. The 42-year-old British actor/comedian exchanged wedding vows with his 30-year-old fiancee Laura Gallacher over the weekend in an intimate ceremony at Remenham Church near their home in Henley-on-Thames, Oxon.
In pictures obtained by The Sun, the bride wore a white dress with a long slit while the groom donned a three-piece suit. The guests included Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher, radio presenter Jonathan Ross, and Sky Sports presenter Kirsty who is also the bride's sister.
After the intimate service at the church, the newlyweds boarded a New Orleans style paddle steamer along with the guests to an Indian-themed reception. They were joined by staff wearing saris. Russell reportedly spent almost $3,000 to rent the boat.
"They wanted a very small, personal affair, with their daughter Mabel, family and close friends rather than a circus. It was a lovely occasion. Mabel was guest of honour," a source said.
Russell Brand and Laura Gallacher, a lifestyle blogger, have dated on and off since 2007. The couple started to get serious in 2015. Mabel, their first child, was born in November 2016.
"I feel lit up by the idea. I'm very excited about becoming a dad and I'm preparing myself," he said of fatherhood in an interview with Evening Standard. "I am just getting ready to be with a new little person and see what it is they want."
He gave up partying for domestic life with his new family. "It is very calm. I look at the chickens, they hatch some eggs. Basically I'm like a village idiot – just looking at livestock," he revealed. "I'm so much happier over the course of the day to see one or two people and a few chickens, that's a good way of living."
Russell was previously married to U.S. singer Katy Perry. They got engaged in India and married in a Hindu ceremony in the country. He dumped her via a text message after a year of marriage. They have no child together.

Do you Know What to Do?
Do you know how to recognize an anaphylactic reaction, and do you know what to do in an emergency? If you are a teacher, staff member, driver, or volunteer on a field trip, you need to be prepared. Understand the signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis and what to do. And before you leave, take some time to practise using the auto-injector with the rest of your team.
School Buses and other Transit
Since teachers are not riding on the daily bus commute, there may be little to no supervision of children, and accidents can occur. Unfortunately, some drivers may not be trained in emergency response to allergic reactions. There is a lot that schools can do to address these issues.
To help keep buses safer, school administrators can speak with the transit company to find out what emergency training in anaphylaxis they have received, and respond to any knowledge gaps with training. Many schools have a "no eating" policy on school buses because of the risk of life-threatening food allergy reactions. If you would like more information on school bus safety, please contact our office.
Field Trips
When students are in new situations, they can be at greater risk for a reaction because their normal routine is changed. School trips and special events are not part of the daily routine and may present new risks.
Before you go
- Make sure allergic students are carrying their auto-injectors. Talk to them about their needs and concerns.
- Teachers, staff and parent chaperones should carry a back-up auto-injector in case a second injection is necessary before medical help arrives.
- Another useful policy is that all teachers and chaperones carry a cell phone.
- Inform all adults travelling on the trip about which students have food allergies or other allergies, and make sure they have a copy of the Anaphylaxis Emergency Plan for each student.
- Talk to all students about keeping their classmates with allergies safe.
Food and Eating
- It is often best for young children to bring their own food from home and to have a "no sharing"policy in place.
- Teachers should consult with allergic students ahead of time (and their parents/guardians) about foods or other allergens to avoid during the trip or event.
- Any food that is part of the outing (like animal food at a petting zoo, food and materials used in craft projects) should be checked for potential allergens.
- Keep an eye on students. In a new space, new risks could be taken and students may be less communicative with adults.
Emergency Steps
- Instruct all teachers, drivers, and chaperones on how to use both types of auto-injector and have them practise before leaving for the trip. There is one auto-injector available in Canada, EpiPen® .
- Review the 5 Emergency Steps with all adults and students.

As usual, the Mount St. Joseph swim team faced Gwynedd Mercy Academy in the regular-season league finale, with this year's meeting taking place last Wednesday evening at the La Salle High School pool, the home venue for both schools.
Each squad recorded first-place finishes in four out of the eight individual events and Gwynedd won two of the three relays, and it was the depth of the MSJ Magic that proved to be the deciding factor in the Mount's 53-41 victory.
The Mounties produced five second-place performances and seven third-place efforts in the solo races, while securing second place in two of the relays and third place in all three of the group events. With one non-league dual meet left on the docket, Mount St. Joe owned an overall record of 4-2 and a league mark of 3-1.
Like the Mount, Gwynedd's only league loss prior to Wednesday's meet came against longtime champ Villa Maria, and after last week's event the Monarchs were 5-3 overall.
This season, Gwynedd has been able to launch a pair of formidable weapons at their opponents, namely the superstar Szekely sisters. Allie, a sophomore, appeared at the 2012 U.S. Olympic trials before even starting high school, and her freshman sister, Stephanie, is not far behind.
Each of the siblings won two individual races on Wednesday, and they teamed up to form part of the Monarchs' two victorious relay quartets. Alie triumphed in the 100-yard freestyle (52.63) and the 100 breaststroke (1:05.27), while Stephanie secured first place in the 200 individual medley (2:14.34) and the 100 backstroke (1:01.01).
On the pool deck, the focus was on the upperclassmen during a joint Senior Night celebration for the two schools. The Mount bid farewell to swimmers Jessie Dolan, Christina Formica, and Julie Sowa, and to manager Nadine Ghantous, while Gwynedd gave a sendoff to Katie Cassidy, Haley Cranch, Claire Lacon, Jamie Talecki, Lea Zaengle, and manager Maggie Gillespie.
The three departing Mounties who raced all scored in the meet. Formica, who will swim for Fairfield University, won the 100-yard butterfly (1:02.56), came in second in the 200 individual medley, and was part of two runner-up relay teams. In freestyle event, Dolan was second in the 50 and third in the 100, while Sowa snagged third in the 100 breast stroke.
Mount St. Joe's junior class was well-represented by Steph Eble, who won freestyle events at the 200 (2:03.56) and 500-yard (5:27.77) distances, and by Haley Sannem, who took first in the 50 free and second in the 100 backstroke.
Another 11th-grader, Georgia Kelly, contributed a third-place finish in the 500 free, which proved to be an important race for the Magic in the middle of the meet program. The evening had opened with Gwynedd winning the 200 medley relay with the Szekely sisters and juniors Molly Riemenschneider and Kieragh McMenamin. Second went to MSJ's Sannem, Sowa, Formica, and Dolan, and the Magic also picked up the third-place point thanks to sophomores Audrey Ezzo and Rachel Sandquist, and freshman Aly Carpenter and Katie Zimmerman. The Mount inched into the lead during the next few individual events, but Gwynedd remained close behind.
In a very close finish, particularly for the longest race of the meet, Eble edged GMA junior MaryKate Curley in the 500 free, and with Kelly touching up third, the Magic opened up a 10-point gap in the meet score, 34-24. They would keep their lead in double figures the rest of the way, following the 500 with their lone relay victory, putting up a time of 46.21 seconds in the 200 free thanks to sophomore Liz DeGroat, Zimmerman, Dolan, and the apparently indefatigable Eble.
Second in that event was the Gwynedd quartet of Cranch, junior Moira Nolan, sophomore Shannon Scott, and freshman Julia Loftus, while the Mount took third with Katherine Schafer, Carpenter and Sam Bauer (all freshmen), with Kelly as anchor.
Schafer also logged a pair of third-place finishes in the 200 free and 100 backstroke. DeGroat, a field hockey starter for the Magic in the fall season, took second in the 100 free and third in the 200 I.M. Classmate Julia Comerford was runner-up in the 100 breast stroke, and Sandquist, also a 10th-grader, placed third in the butterfly.
Gwynedd saw Curley capture second place in the aforementioned 500 free event and in the 200 free, as well. Riemenschneider was runner-up in the butterfly, and Monarchs sophomore Shannon Brown came in third in the 50 free.
As MSJ coach Janet Pudlinski pointed out, it was important for the Magic to win the races in which the Szekely sisters were not participating, and to try and pick up the second and third-place points in the contests that included the speedy siblings.
Allie Szekely had not been swimming the 100 breast stroke in regular season meets, but on Wednesday she entered and won that race, closing out the individual events for the evening. Her time of 1:05.27 qualified her for the PIAA District 1 championships; GMA mentor Heather Norman said the sophomore had previously qualified in the 50, 100, and 500 free, the backstroke, the breast stroke, and the butterfly.
Her anchor leg in the 400 free relay at the end of the night put the Monarchs into the lead for the victory (3:47.15). Racing before her in the order were Curley, McMenamin, and her sister, Stephanie. The Mount's A team, Formica, DeGroat, Eble, and Sannem, built up a lead of almost half-a-length over the first half of the race.
The younger Szekely cut down the gap considerably on the third leg, then Allie delivered the coup-de-grace during the fourth stage.
Both from the starting block and off of her highly-efficient wall turns, the super soph spends a lot of time underwater at the beginning of each lap, utilizing the Dolphin kick where appropriate.
The Magic picked up second place in the final race, and also third, courtesy of Sandquist, Bauer, Carpenter, and Schafer.

Theatre Workshop of Nantucket today announced the schedule of productions for its 2014 Main Stage Season, and a major artistic addition.
Justin Cerne has been hired for 2014 as resident artistic director, executive director Gabrielle Gould said. Cerne will begin April 1 working with TWN's production team.

Black Eyed Peas — Know for bringing good luck in the new year, if you eat them on New Years Day! Or some of you may only know them as a music group. This funky looking legume holds a special place for me going back to college – As part of our nutrition degree, we had to plan, cost out, organize "staff" and prepare a meal for 50 people. With our classmates acting as our restaurant employees, we actually served paying customers (the staff and select students could come by for lunch!). Well, my meal was the infamous lucky meal of Black Eyed Peas and ham!
What exactly are these "peas"? Actually, not peas at all but part of the legume family — And you can find them fresh this time of year at your local farmers market. They freeze quite well so buy extra and save them for January 1st. These beans do more for your health then bring you good luck. You will find them full of fiber, Vitamin K, some B vitamins and potassium.
Enjoy this cold salad at your next cookout!
Black Eyed Pea Salad
- Juice from 1 lime
- 2/3 cup of vinegar (rice, red wine, white balsamic or champagne)
- 1 cup chopped cilantro
- ½ cup olive oil
- 1 tsp agave nectar or honey (optional)
In large bowl, whisk together vinegar, lime juice and cilantro. Slowly add olive oil while constantly whisking.
- 5 cups cooked black-eyed peas
- 10 scallions, roughly chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and finely chopped
- 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, chopped (optional)
- 1 medium cucumber, seeded and finely chopped (optional)
- 2 serrano peppers or 1 habanero or Scotch bonnet chile, stemmed, seeded, and minced (optional)
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Add all the above ingredients to the bowl with the dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir and refrigerate.
For complete meal add: Cooked brown rice, quinoa or millet and sliced avocado.

6 comments:
I got all 3 of the heroine products, that color is fab! I compared my old violetta lipstick to a my new one and the new one is very close to heroine except it has the sheen to it. My old violetta came off more fuchsia but the new one has more of a blue tone either way heroine and violetta are gorgeous colors!ReplyDelete
Since this color came out I have been eager to wear it out to some special occasion, you making me fall in love with this color all over again.ReplyDelete

Hello everyone! Have you seen all the new stamps available from the store? Make It Crafty, Tiddly Inks, Stamping Bella, SCACD, Some Odd Girl... Something for everyone! I am using a Some Odd Girl set today, not the very latest but a very recent one that I love - Geisha Kaylee!
I have kept my card extremely simple as you can see. Geisha Kaylee was a joy to colour - I coloured her in Polychromos this time. The little flower is part of the set too, stamped in blue ink, coloured a little in pencils too, cut out and added on a foam square. And for a nice finishing touch, I added a gem in the middle.
Thank you very much for your visit and for your lovely comments! Have a lovely Sunday! Hugs

Day 314 and Dandelion
I've been having a lot of fun lately with concrete interpretations of an idea. For instance, I wanted to make a tree, so I literally designed the image of a tree onto a scarf. Today I was looking at some of my lonelier stash bits and wondering what they resembled.
Fluffy white and off whites reminded me of a late summer dandelion head, the sort which a small child likes to pick and blow and make a wish. How shall I make this into a scarf? Nestle the head of the wearer into the fluff and make a pair of ties in a green stemmy color! GENIUS!

Publisher: Atria Books
Pages: 544
ISBN: 9781451626339Series: None

Goodreads Synopsis:
In this first adult novel by the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the unforgettable Crank trilogy, three female friends face midlife crises in a no holds-barred exploration of sex, marriage, and the fragility of life.
Ellen Hopkins has made her mark as the wildly popular author of several novels for young adults—every one of them a New York Times bestseller, and every one a hard-hitting exploration of tough-to-tackle topics. Now, in Triangles, Hopkins brings her storytelling mastery and fearlessness to take on the challenges of adult dramas.
In this emotionally powerful novel, three women face the age-old midlife question: If I'm halfway to death, is this all I've got to show for it? Holly, filled with regret for being a stay-at-home mom, sheds sixty pounds and loses herself in the world of extramarital sex. Andrea, a single mom and avowed celibate, watches her friend Holly's meltdown with a mixture of concern and contempt. Holly is throwing away what Andrea has spent her whole life searching for—a committed relationship with a decent guy. So what if Andrea picks up Holly's castaway husband? Then there's Marissa. She has more than her fair share of challenges—a gay teenage son, a terminally ill daughter, and a husband who buries himself in his work rather than face the facts. As one woman's marriage unravels, another one's rekindles. As one woman's family comes apart at the seams, another's is reconfigured into something bigger and better. In this story of connections and disconnections, one woman's up is another one's down, and all three of them will learn the meaning of friendship, betrayal, and forgiveness before it is through.
My Review:
The story is about love, more specifically about love triangles and how lives are impacted and joined like the lines of a triangle. In this book, Hopkins writes a whole poem about the lines of the triangle, and I think that was my favourite part of the novel. Also, the poem at the end of each characters chapter that sort of summed up what happened and the feelings of the characters was very interesting, and well worth it.
Triangles has so much emotion throughout it. At times it's very erotic and risky, but there was a balance so it wasn't like reading an erotic novel from start to finish. The characters, as I said have so much behind them and because of that, I felt as though I knew them, as though I was living in the book with them experiencing the things they were going through. Let me tell you, the things these characters go through is unbelievable. We have children with disabilities, affairs, relationships without love, and so much more.
In a nutshell, Triangles is a great read. It's not a YA so don't expect teenage love triangles and bitchy, catty teen girls, instead be prepared for adult topics, powerful emotions and the raw truth about families and friends and betrayal.

Teenager builds browser plug-in that allows you to see the politicians' funders
Greenhouse gives a list of the top 10 industries from which a politician receives money. Besides that, it also highlights what percentage of a politician's funds come from presumably grassroots supporters, those who make donations of 200 dollars or less. The software launched in early June and it can already be used for browsers Safari, Google Chrome and Firefox.
The creator of Greenhouse is a 16-year-old self-taught programmer named Nicholas Rubin. He explains on his website that "even though I am only 16 years old, not quite old enough to vote, I am old enough to know that our political system desperately needs fixing. I hope that this tool is one step in that direction." Rubin says he got the name of his plug-in from a desire for transparency, like the glass walls of a greenhouse. The 16- year-old boy gives some insight into his own political philosophy and mission:
"It is my hope that providing increased transparency around the amount and source of funding of our elected representatives may play a small role in educating citizensand promoting change. If you use the extension when reading about a Congressional vote on energy policy, for example, maybe you'll discover that a sponsor of a bill has received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the oil and gas industry. Or maybe you'll learn that the top donors to a member of Congress who opposes tort reform are lawyers and law firms. I use data from the last full election cycle (2012) and plan to update it as more relevant data becomes available. Special thanks to OpenSecrets.org for providing access to that data.
The motto of Greenhouse is: "Some are red. Some are blue. All are green." What it signifies is that the influence of money on our government isn't a partisan issue. Whether Democrat or
Republican, we should all want a political system that is independent of the influence of big money and not dependent on endless cycles of fundraising from special interests. The United States of America was founded to serve individuals, not big interests or big industries. Yet every year we seem to move farther and farther away from our Founders' vision."
Engadget, a technology blog, gives critique on the fact that Rubin's data is a few years old. He replied that "the information in the popup is from the last full election cycle (ending in 2012) because it is the most complete data available." Rubin gets his information from the Center for Responsive Politics Open Secrets website, which tracks lobbying and campaign contributions, and "plan[s] to update the data in the popup itself later in this election cycle as 2014 contributions are more complete."

I feel like I should start this blog post with "I'm so sorry."
Who am I apologizing to? I'm not sure. I just know that over the past several months, I very slowly fell into that horrible thing called "busyness" – you know, doing a lot of really good things that take away from what God's really asked you to do.
Without going into great detail and creating the longest blog post EVER, suffice it to say, my husband very gently sat me down and said, "You need to stop doing this and this." I was like, "Oh, yeah…you're right!"
BAM! Instant re-focus.
The devil's job isn't all that hard sometimes. He just sticks a couple thoughts in our heads and then we run with them until our vision is totally blurred and then one day we sit there and go, "So…what was I doing? What am I headed towards? I was passionate about something but I can't quite put my finger on it…"
I realized that in the midst of doing some really "good things", I lost the drive (and time) to be intentional about my home, my family, my alone time with the Creator and….the Sparrows.
I'm amazed at how down-sizing the activities of my life has immediately wiped away that foggy feeling of "What exactly am I doing?" and replaced it with "Oh, yes. I know exactly what I'm to do."
So…here we go. As a leader of the SparrowFly team, I've dropped the ball but I'm not discouraged or afraid, because I know there is a passion that burns deep within each of us and it's just waiting to re-ignite.
Not a sparrow falls without the Father knowing,
