Have you ever been lost in the bustle of the big city? Ever wondered where that "somewhere" was that people were always rushing to? I have, especially when I vacation in New York City, but not once have I felt like I had a purpose in the chaos, until I started my internship. I now have a place in this crazy morning rush, I know it sounds strange but I enjoy cursing the morning traffic, I enjoy complaining in Starbucks line about frivolous things like a tigers game, just as a child would mimic a parent, not knowing why, but just because your "supposed to."
When I arrive at the courthouse, I have a sense of importance and pride mostly because of my distinctive ID badge. The badge is almost like a superhero costume, when you put it on people treat you with a sense of respect. At work the days are always the same but always different, like I stated in my last blog, however they're always exciting. I emphasize this point because it is so very true. The fast paced process of interviewing clients, gathering helpful information, looking through Capias files, and going on the record is the same, but the people–the people are always different, and this brings the thrill and excitement to each day. I've been at the heart of all the action, from consoling uncontrollable relatives of the jailers, defendants having unruly outburst, and even a fight or two in the hallway, but these are the type of things that cannot phase you when you have on your "poker face."
I have begun to take on more responsibilities during the court days, and thankfully, because I was getting bored just recording the docket and other little things. I recently started to type of case briefs, which is amazing because I feel like I am doing real work. Case briefs are basically, summaries of the case that the lawyer needs to read through quickly before they go on the record. I have also started to build relationships with the team, one of the attorneys took me upstairs to the 5th floor, which is felony court. This was a scary day for me not only because of the felons that were right before me, but because I realized that I had started to become numb to seeing people go to jail. In felony court during the examination I had seen some gut-wrenching cases, that you only hear about on shows like 60 minutes or Criminal Minds, I had finally seen the "dark side" of the law. Keeping my "poker face" during some of those trials was extremely hard, but it helped me come to the conclusion that I would never want to work on the "5th floor." But there were also happy times, I was invited to Hon. Judge Paula Humpries retirement party. This was a big deal. I really admire this woman who served in the army while being a judge at the same time, yes, amazing. She even took the time out to speak to me at her party and gave me advice about my future, she even told me to add her on Facebook. It took an entire day to fix up my Facebook getting prepared for the big friend request. It is mind blowing how growing up with social media can be both a blessing and a curse.
I can easily see myself doing this work while in law school and actually being a part of the rush instead of being the child mimicking a parent. Every time I go to work I find myself molding into quite the lawyer, I find myself belonging more and more to this discourse community we call politics and I enjoy it.

These roses in vintage French yogurt jars came from this arbor below.
Unfortunately they are already done blooming with all this heat we've been having this year and since they are the old fashioned variety they only bloom once. I got some starts of these many years ago from my sister who had some growing next to her old farmhouse. They smell heavenly and are my favorite roses. The pathway here leads you out of the garden where straight ahead is our house and if you turn to your right you will see the Garden House.

It may seem a little much to be teaching young children about money and it's value but I think it's important to make them aware of certain things at a young age and hopefully they'll avoid getting in to difficult financial situations as adults.
According to child psychologist Dr Elizabeth Kilbey:
"Having tough conversations with your children is part and parcel of being a parent and money can be a subject many find particularly hard to cover, especially if it is an area which they struggle with themselves. One of the key reasons for many parents is that they feel children shouldn't be burdened with adult responsibilities, like worries about money. But it can in fact be very empowering to give your children skills and confidence with money, so that they don't have to face money worries in the future."
Five Tops Tips from Dr Elizabeth Kilbey on talking money with your children
1. Subtly integrate it into your child's life. You don't have to have a big 'money chat' to bring up the idea of good money management. When you go shopping for example, encourage your child to make a choice between two items so they understand they can't 'have it all' or explain to them that whilst two products are very similar, one is cheaper and it can be sensible to go for that one.
2. It's never too young to start. My own experience backs up the Money Advice Service's academic study which shows that money habits begin to be developed prior to the age of seven. Children shouldn't have to worry about family finances, but you can help them understand money without doing this.
3. Be confident. This is your opportunity to help your children develop positive, beneficial habits. Even if you aren't the best at money management, you will still have lots you can pass on to your children.
4. Have a go. Money is a very practical subject and children can be very hands on learners. Find ways for your children to handle and use money whenever possible and having pocket money can be a great way of doing this. In younger children, role play can be used – for example playing 'shop' using pretend money.
5. It's ok to make a few mistakes; it's how we all learn, and that applies to money as well. It's far better for children to be making mistakes with little or no consequences than them facing bigger money issues when they are older which could have a bigger impact.

It was love at first sight when I saw this blush tone lace dress at Tar-Jay a few months ago . I was a little surprised to see it in the store in late November but I loved the feminine detail and decided to style it for the colder months by added a long sweater and my animal print booties because after all leopard is a neutral . I love the fact that I can carry this piece into the spring and summer by losing the sweater and changing the shoe to a great sandal or pump. I know for sure this will be a regular in my rotation.
(here), Booties -Ann Taylor , Sweater (sim), Bag -Kohl's (here)
What about you are you a fan of the neutral pallet ? How you do incorporate that into you wardrobe?
I want to thank you for stopping by it means a lot to me.

Centralized interim storage of irradiated nuclear fuel at Eddy-Lea Energy Alliance site in southeast NM would lead to reprocessing!
As reported by the Los Angeles Times:
Holtec officials say that WCS' problems haven't deterred their plans for an underground storage site, saying interim storage could save the federal government billions of dollars, particularly if the Yucca Mountain plan is again postponed.
The company has strong support in New Mexico, which already has a dump for nuclear weapons waste, a uranium enrichment plant, a nuclear weapons armory and two nuclear weapons laboratories.
"We are very well-informed," said Sam Cobb, mayor of nearby Hobbs, rejecting arguments by antinuclear groups that the industry preys on communities that need money and don't understand the risk.
"It is not a death grab to get money," he said. "We believe if we have an interim storage site, we will be the center for future nuclear fuel reprocessing." (emphasis added)
Thus, Mayor Cobb, a top proponet of commercial irradiated nuclear fuel centralized interim storage in southeastern New Mexico, has come right out and admitted the reprocessing is in the plan.
In fact, the logo for the Eddy-Lea [Counties] Energy Alliance, which would host the CISF, is a recyling symbol surrounding an atom!
The Statement of Principles for Safeguarding Nuclear Waste at Reactors includes explicit opposition to reprocessing:
The Obama administration has determined that the Yucca Mountain site, which has been mired in bad science and mismanagement, is not an option for geologic storage of nuclear waste. Unfortunately, reprocessing proponents have used this opportunity to promote reprocessing as the solution for managing our nuclear waste. Contrary to their claims, however, reprocessing is extremely expensive, highly polluting, and a proliferation threat, and will actually complicate the management of irradiated fuel. Nor will reprocessing obviate the need for, or "save space" in, a geologic repository.
The Statement concludes with the following:
Prohibit reprocessing: The reprocessing of irradiated fuel has not solved the nuclear waste problem in any country, and actually exacerbates it by creating numerous additional waste streams that must be managed. In addition to be expensive and polluting, reprocessing also increases nuclear weapons proliferation threats.
The Statement was signed by many hundreds of groups, representing all 50 states, including such anti-reprocessing groups as the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation, as well as the Council for a Liveable World.
See Beyond Nuclear's pamphlet about Nuclear France, to learn more about the ravages of reprocessing in northwest Europe.
And also see Beyond Nuclear's pamphlet highlighting the many dangers of reprocessing, from its astronomical expense to taxpayers, its nuclear weapons proliferation risks, and its inevitable radioactive ruination of the environment and public health, wherever it is done.

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, which was released to gamers across the world on 1 September, comes with multiple hidden features and customisations that require tactical unlocking. Now, a new cut scene called the Nuclear Abolition Event has surfaced, along with tips to unlock it.
Fans can unlock the event on Metal Gear Solid 5 by following the steps below:
Step 1: Finish Mission 31 titled "Sahelanthropus".
Step 2: Rid yourself of nuclear weapons and stop developing them.
Step 3: An exclusive requirement will surface, which needs to be met on the game's version server. This is applicable to all Xbox One, PS4, PS3 and Steam enthusiasts.
Step 4: After meeting the secret requirement in step 3, decommission all nuclear weapons on the game version server.
Step 5: Then, navigate to the mother base or finish a main mission.
Gamers need to remember that after step 4, the secret in-game requirement needs to be performed once again. Repeat step 4, after meeting requirements in step 3. And the Nuclear Abolition Event will get unlocked automatically.
A video regarding the Nuclear Abolition Event has also surfaced. Gamers can check out the video below:
Recently, a new update that lets players safeguard Forward Operating Bases (FOB) by warding-off attacks by possessing nuclear weapons was released. To guard FOBs more efficiently, gamers would have to spend more time and effort in collecting and integrating nukes. Do let us know, if the above steps helped in unlocking the Nuclear Abolition Event, in our comments section below.

re: Gerardo
Dear Colbath Family and boys, I have intended to write ever since we returned home to NH. The time just flies by. Leaving you all is so hard and even now when I am at work I often think of you and the many challenges you face. Adam gave a great slide presentation of the missions trip at church on Sunday. Seeing the photos again really tuggs at my heart. I still haven't forgotten that I need to forward pictures to you. Unfortunately I am really not sure how to do it even though several have tried to teach me. I will keep on trying and who knows one of these days you may recieve them. Gerardo is always in our prayers. I have spoken with one of the doctors who retired and he has been in contact with a group called Heal the Children. This is a medical missions organization who will provide for getting a sick child to the states for surgery etc. Perhaps this might be an avenue to help Gerardo. I'll keep you posted on any developments on this end. Hannah- Happy belated birthday. Your chriastmas ornaments travelled well. Only one cracked. I intend to give them to family & friends as we always exchange ornaments. They are a beautiful reminder of a creative and special young lady. May this be an exciting year for you. I've got to get off to work. Not everyone has Veteran's day off . I am thankful though for a job in light of the economy. Two gas stations in the state are selling gas for $1.99. I hope that trend continues. Love to you all!! Brenda

Moving Day is here...
Yup it's moving day again. I wonder how many posts I have made about moving day in the nearly 4 years now that I have been blogging, perhaps 4?

One of the biggest takeovers in the European space industry has just got approved. On July 20, the European Commission (EC) informed that it has cleared the way for the acquisition of Arianespace by Airbus Safran Launchers (ASL), after both companies agreed to conditions imposed by the European Union's executive body.
In February 2016, the Commission opened an investigation to review the merger process, after it received information about the upcoming transaction. EC halted the acquisition due to the concerns that a possible flow of sensitive data could take place that would harm rival companies. The Commission is worried that this flow could result in less competitive tenders and less innovation in the space industry market.
"A well-functioning satellite and launcher industry is important to guarantee that European companies and institutions can gain access to space at competitive terms. The commitments offered by ASL ensure that after its takeover of Arianespace, all players in the industry will continue to have incentives to innovate," said Margrethe Vestager, European Commissioner for Competition.
In order to proceed further with the takeover, ASL and Arianespace agreed to EC's insistence by offering to implement firewalls between both companies to prevent information flows that could harm competitors.
"In particular, the companies committed not to share information about third parties with each other save for what is normally required for the everyday operation of the business," EC said in a press release.
The Commission also ordered both sides to create an arbitration mechanism in future deals with third parties that will ensure the effective implementation of the firewalls.
ASL currently has 27.4 percent of Arianespace's shares. In a deal expected to take place within weeks, ASL plans to buy a nearly 35 percent stake from the French Space Agency (CNES). ASL is currently controlled jointly by Airbus Group, a Dutch-based aerospace company and Safran, a French venture, supplier of systems and equipment for aerospace, defense and security.
Based in France, Arianespace offers launch services to the European Space Agency (ESA) and private as well as institutional satellite operators. The company currently uses three different rockets to provide its services: Ariane, developed by ASL, Vega, built by ELV of Italy and Soyuz, manufactured by the Progress State Research and Production Space Center (TsSKB) of Russia.
Arianespace in the future will mostly rely on the Ariane 6 launcher, currently being manufactured by ASL. It will be 207 feet (63 meters) tall and 18 feet (5.4 meters) in diameter. The booster will operate in two configurations: Ariane 62 and 64. The "62" variant will weigh around 500 metric tons at liftoff and is intended mainly for government and scientific missions. It will be capable of launching up to five metric tons into geostationary transfer orbit (GTO). Ariane 64 will have a liftoff weight of around 800 metric tons and is intended for commercial dual-satellite launches of up to 10.5 metric tons into GTO.
The upcoming takeover of Arianespace by ASL, is seen as inevitable privatization of ESA's launch providing services. As the French government sells its shares in Arianespace, the influence of the country that contributes the most to ESA, could be shrinking in the future. However, the consolidation of satellite manufacturing and launch providing services in ASL's hands could help Arianespace become more competitive in the space industry market.

Holy Scripture and the Church August 13, 2011Posted by The Prodigal Son in Christianity, Orthodox Christianity.

By New Hieromartyr Hilarion (Troitsky),
Archbishop of Verey
~~~ ~ † ~ ~~~
Editor's Note: The following article was written in 1914, when St. Hilarion was an archimandrite and a professor of the Imperial Moscow Spiritual Academy. Its message is especially pertinent for our times, when there is widespread confusion and ignorance about the true nature of Christ's Church and about the right approach to Holy Scripture. It can provide invaluable help to Orthodox Christians in understanding their Faith more deeply, and in defending and giving an account of it when confronted with heterodox—especially Protestant—claims. At the same time, it can serve as wake-up call to Protestants, who separate the Bible from the Church, as well as to those Orthodox Christian scholars who have been unduly influenced by the modern "higher criticism" of the Bible which originated within German Protestantism—the fallacies of which are profoundly demonstrated by our modern-day Orthodox apologist, St. Hilarion.
~~~ ~ † ~ ~~~
In the Church there are no stone tablets with letters inscribed by a Divine finger. The Church has the Holy Scriptures, but He Who established the Church wrote nothing. Only once, in the Gospel of John, was it said of Christ that He stooped down and wrote something; but even this one time Christ wrote with his finger and on the ground, it may even be that He did not write any words at all, but merely drew with His finger pointing to the ground. And yet the Church has Scripture, which is called by her Holy and Divine.
Christ did not write anything.
It seems that if one reflects enough on this fact, one can somewhat understand the very essence of the work of Christ. As a rule, other religious leaders of humanity, founders of various philosophical schools, have written readily and in abundance, and yet Christ wrote nothing at all. Does not this mean that in its essence the work of Christ has nothing in common with the work of any of the philosophers, teachers, or leading representatives of the intellectual life of mankind? Furthermore, has the Church herself ever viewed her Founder as one of the teachers of mankind? Has she ever considered His teachings as the essence of His work? No, with the utmost exertion of her theological strength, the Christian Church has defended as the greatest religious truth that Christ is the Only-begotten Son of God, One in essence with God the Father, Who became incarnate on earth. For that truth, the greatest Fathers of the Church labored to the point of blood.
They were unbending in the battle for this truth. They did not yield a single inch to their adversaries, literarily not even a single iota, which in the Greek language differentiates homoiousion, "of similar essence," from homoousion, "co-essential." "Those who call these men [i.e., Arians] Christians are in great and grievous error," writes St. Athanasius the Great. Thus did this adamant of Orthodoxy argue definitively about the impossibility of being a Christian while denying the Incarnation of the Son of God, Who is co-essential with God the Father.
But was the Incarnation of the Only-begotten Son of God necessary only in order to write a book and entrust it to mankind? Was it absolutely essential for Him to be the Only-begotten Son of God just to write a book? If the Church insisted with such determination on the Divine dignity of her Founder, then obviously she did not regard writing to be the essence of His work. It was the Incarnation of the Son of God that was necessary for the salvation of mankind, and not a book. (more…)

add a comment
The One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Orthodox Christian Church is:
(a) The Body of Christ
(b) The community of believers and followers of Jesus Christ since Pentecost — that point in time at which that community has been guided by The Holy Spirit, as had been promised by Our Lord prior to His Crucifixion and Resurrection:
[John 16:13: "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come." Matthew 16:18: "And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it."]
(c) The same yesterday, today and forever, just as Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever [Hebrews 13:8]
(d) One, as Jesus Christ Himself is One and Indivisible
(e) Holy; sacramental; liturgical – as opposed to being merely some sort of club for social networking, or activism, or community organizing, or debating, or …. whatever is the trend of the week
(f) Catholic; universal; The Church for all of humanity in all places at all times, and also with each "Church" — each place of Orthodox worship, and each Autocephalous Church — complete in itself as the nexus between time and eternity, between Heaven and Earth.
(g) Apostolic; in continuity — both temporally and in terms of teachings and tradition — with the Apostles, who themselves were guided by Our Lord and Saviour, and who were in continuity with the teachings and traditions of the Israelite people prior to the temporal ministry of Jesus, the Messiah
(h) Orthodox; of correct teachings, correct worship, correct glorification. Lex orandi, lex credendi.

Here's a quote from a website I visited:
"The Gospel-
Sound complicated? It's not, really. It is simply a matter of believing that Jesus is God's only begotten Son, and that He came to Earth, was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died to remove your sin — that original sin you inherited from Adam — then rose again on the third day to assure your future resurrection.
Here is what it takes to be "born again." It is as simple as ABC:
A – Admit you are a sinner.
B – Believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died and rose again to give you eternal life.
C – Call upon Him in prayer and ask for salvation."
So… I ask you – is that the true Gospel? Or is it a lie invented in the 16th century which only serves to fool people and keep them from the knowledge of the truth and the salvation found in His Church?

Overlooked, then near the top: DeWeese flourishes as one of nation's top middle blockers at Wisconsin-Green Bay
When she was a senior at Worthington Kilbourne High School, Lydia DeWeese wasn't sure she had what it takes to play volleyball at the Division I collegiate level. This season, the middle blocker for the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay proved she did.
As of Nov. 26, the 6-foot-2 junior was ranked second nationally in blocks with 115 and fourth in blocks per set (1.63) for the Phoenix, which finished with a 21-9 record this season. Not too shabby for a player who worried she might get lost in the recruiting shuffle.
"I really didn't even plan on playing college volleyball until I was a junior in high school," said DeWeese, who led the Horizon League in blocks and hitting percentage this season. "I didn't play on any national teams, which is what you have to do to be discovered by a Division I school.
"My senior year, one of the girls on my high school team (Haley Defibaugh) said the Columbus Volleyball Academy team she played for needed a middle. I took the shot when I was given it."
At the same moment DeWeese was looking for a college, Sean Burdette, then the newly hired Wisconsin-Green Bay volleyball coach, was desperately seeking a middle blocker. The weekend after he had been hired, Burdette and DeWeese both happened to be at the three-day Mid East National Volleyball Qualifier in Indianapolis.
On the last day of the Mid East Qualifier, Burdette ended up watching DeWeese's team. After watching the first set and seeing DeWeese impact the game with her natural blocking abilities, Burdette asked Dave Chapman, the director of the Columbus Volleyball Academy, where she was playing in college. After a long pause Chapman said he was unsure if she was committed somewhere but thought she was looking at some Division II and III programs.
"I told Dave right then and there I thought she could help us at Green Bay and that we had a scholarship available for her position," Burdette said. "With it being so late in the recruiting process, it is tough to find someone that can come in and impact and be a complete player. I knew we would need to work on her arm swing and footwork but she just had this natural feel for blocking."
In a month, DeWeese went from hoping to sign with a Division II or III program to being a Division I recruit. However, that summer she began to wonder if she made the right decision. The practices were even more demanding than the workouts she went through for the national level club teams. Put it in simplest terms, DeWeese said she felt "overwhelmed."
"The biggest thing I've had to overcome throughout my career is confidence in myself," said DeWeese, a Human Biology major with an emphasis in Health Science. "I really struggled to believe I was good enough to compete at the level I was playing at. But the constant support from my family, friends, teammates, coaches as well as a strongly rooted faith in God really helped me to develop the (right) mindset."
"The game was still fairly fast for her and she was trying to make up some ground since she had not played at a high open level in club volleyball until her senior year," Burdette said. "The other players she was going up against had played at that level for four or five years."
However, late in her freshman year, Wisconsin-Green Bay was struggling at rival Cleveland State. Burdette inserted DeWeese into the lineup to slow down the Vikings' middle attack and she held her own. A week later Burdette decided to put her into the starting lineup.
"Three seasons later, she has not let go of that spot," Burdette said. "Her evolution as a person and player has been great to see. This year she has taken it to another level and been consistently one of the top players in the conference."
DeWeese said seeing her name at the top of the NCAA statistics took a lot to get used to and in many ways, put a little bit of pressure on her.
"It was really surprising and humbling at first," she said. "I probably wouldn't have believed you had you told me that was going to happen.
"I felt like there was this expectation, mostly from myself, to maintain those rankings. That could get overwhelming some days. I tried not to let it affect my performance on the court. My main goal was to do whatever I needed to do to contribute to the overall success of my team as a whole. To be nationally ranked for accomplishing that was just an extra-added, amazing blessing."

Technical Courses : Top 5 Online Vocational Courses
Given the more recent state of affairs, continuing education is always a good option to bank on. Aside from gaining an additional competency that could be used for an alternative job, it also gives recession-friendly career options that could be a life-saver should a lean time come. Trade jobs also allow people to save on some expenses because their actual trades save the need for hiring other people.
As one of the 5 alternatives to online degrees, vocational courses are designed to provide instantly-applicable skills, focusing on trades that one could practice even without employment. Without further ado, here are the top 5 training courses that could start off your vocational careers:
Home Electrician Technical Courses
If you're interested in home improvement and design – particularly in the installation and maintenance of electrical equipment – then this course might be right up your alley. Aside from providing a steady stream of work opportunities (i.e. you can work for a company or just be an independent contractor), it also allows you to have a specific trade that you could practice for your own benefit, lessening further expenses in home maintenance. Some courses also provide training in appliance repair and maintenance, furthering the marketability of the trade even more.
Carpentry and Construction Technical Courses
Home and remodeling and repair enthusiasts might consider taking a course in carpentry and construction. A general trade, carpentry and construction training courses allow the student to learn all about wiring, plumbing, and fixture installation and design of homes. These courses also allow students to learn more about construction in general – cost-estimation, legal procedures – paving the way for high-paying jobs as home construction inspectors or even for opening independent home-consulting businesses.
Plumbing Technical Courses
These courses are designed for those interested in plumbing, steamfitting, and pipefitting, which are other marketable aspects of home improvement and maintenance. These training courses usually prepare students to be independent contractors for home owners, taking considerable responsibility for the plumbing needs of clients. The same as the top two training courses, plumbing jobs are always in demand and plenty. A high degree of competence in this field might lead to further jobs in construction and home inspection.
Automotive Service Technical Courses
A mix of the mechanical, electrical, and the electronic, taking a course in automotive service prepares the student for jobs in repairing and maintaining vehicles. As a training course to become a car mechanic, automotive service prepares students for taking in responsibilities in car garages, service stations, and car-mod specialty shops (i.e. shops that enhance vehicle aesthetics, engine efficiency, and interior build). Students also trained in auto body repair and modification, wiring, installation and maintenance mechanics, and engine works. Some students might also consider training courses specialize in motorcycle service and repair.
Security Technical Courses
Courses that deal with security issues train students in the planning, design, and implementation of security protocols for homeowners and businesses. Not to be confused with courses that train security guards, these security courses cover topics in the installation of security devices (i.e. burglar alarms), lighting, landscape consulting, aspects of home improvement (e.g. wiring, plumbing, steamfitting, carpentry, construction), legal issues and law enforcement procedures. Students of security are also schooled in the foundations of criminal psychology, and the strategies that could be employed against a secure system. A starting course in security prepares the student for a career as an independent security contractor, or for a consulting business in security.

I am happy to see your blog. Its really awesome and very interesting, where I found a informative information on IT Technology. I really thankful to your both sites.
[…] to students who have previously pursued vocational courses can provide a better idea of the technical training offered. Course instructors and state education bodies are also valuable sources of information […]

What exactly is going on in the halls of power in California? On Wednesday's "Jimmy Kimmel Live," the host conducted a Skype interview with acting California Gov. Toni Atkins.
Gov. Jerry Brown, Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom and State Senate President Darrell Steinberg were all out of the state Wednesday on business, leaving Atkins, speaker of the state Assembly, in charge for a chunk of the day.
Atkins' brief tenure as acting governor -- 10 hours -- was notable because it's rare for the Assembly speaker to be called on to fill the top spot and because Atkins is the first openly gay person to serve as acting governor.
But in the course of joking around, Kimmel may have touched on an interstate war brewing on the horizon.
"It's been an uneventful day," Atkins said to Kimmel. "And I hope that nothing in this interview breaks that streak."
Kimmel then joked, "Before you go, we should do something fun. We should invade Oregon or something like that."
Instead of brushing it off as crazy talk, however, Atkins said, "Somebody already made that suggestion. And talked about a few other things."
Hear that, Oregon? Your neighbors to the south have their eyes on you. Consider yourself on notice.

To show my love of pennants, I created this simple DIY for mini ribbon pennants to stick in brownies, cupcakes and other party treats. Here's what you'll need: toothpicks, 1/2" wide ribbon, tissue paper, tape and glue.
How To:
1. Cut your tissue paper into 1" by 2" rectangles.
2. Fold it in half, then half again, then half again. Cut along the seam and well as down the center. Don't cut all the way through, you want to leave a little bottom strip to wrap around the toothpick.
3. Open it up and cut the middle any strips that you didn't get. There should only be one or two. You should have little fringey strips.
4. Wrap the bottom of the strip around the toothpick and secure with a little bit of tape.
5. Take your ribbon and cut a 3" strip.
6. Fold in half and cut a "V" through both ends at once to make a pennant shape.
7. Stick your toothpick in the center fold of the ribbon and glue.
Ta-da! You have a simple cute little pennant for your treats.
I made these brownies from the recipe in March's Food Network Magazine's chocolate issue. You can find them in their 50 Brownies special mini mag or online. They are toffee brownies.
And you can't have a treat party without a troll doll. I actually have two. But, the other one didn't bother to rsvp.

Modern office furniture is an essential requirement for any office today. There are various benefits of using modern, sleek, modular office furniture. However, there are a common mistakes that people make while buying office furniture, and should be avoided at all cost!
- Sometimes, people simply buy furniture because it "looks good". All that glitters is not gold, isn't it? Just because it looks good doesn't mean it will feel good when used. Make sure you try out the furniture at the store before buying!
For example, if you're buying an office desk, make sure it has sufficient work area for your needs. For more information on buying the right office desk, have a look at: Buying the Right Office Desk.
- Make a list of your unique needs that your office furniture must fulfill and be adamant about it! Sounds funny, but this will go a long way in eliminating the stuff that will not be of use to you. You might want to include those needs that your current office furniture setup does not fulfill.
- When it comes to furniture, impulsive purchases are always bad purchases. Make sure you have sufficient time at hand before you go furniture shopping for your new office!
- If the price looks to good to be true, it most certainly is! Do not be tempted to buy excessively low priced stuff. They will not last as long as you want them to! Remember, Quality comes at a price!
- Bright colours such as glossy reds and bright glossy greens look good at first. In our experience, such colours tend to distract attention while working. It would be a good idea to opt for sober colours with wood patterns, as shown in the picture above.
- While buying, do keep your future needs in mind. Your furniture should be able to reasonable adapt to your needs of space and storage that you may have in future.
- Avoid buying office furniture from small time manufacturers / vendors. It is always a good idea to opt for reputed manufacturers who will be able to offer proper after sales support for your furniture.
- When it comes to furniture, try to avoid refurbished / seconds stuff as they will NOT last long.
- Try to buy from MANUFACTURERS only. You get to customize your furniture according to your own needs!
At UNIQUE, we make sure that all office furniture meets the highest quality requirements of our clients. Our clients also have the option of customizing their office furniture as per their unique space and budget requirements so that they receive a complete solution under one roof.
We are committed to provide high quality long lasting office furniture to our clients. For more information on our Office Furniture, please contact us.

Could Roberto Duran movie help sell his Miami home?
Friday's release of the Roberto Duran biopic "Hands of Stone," starring Robert DeNiro, Usher and Edgar Ramirez, could send longtime Miamians back to the 1990s, at a time when Duran called the city home.
One of several properties Duran owned here was at 8510 Grand Canal Dr., in the Flagler Waterway Estates just south of Miami International Airport.
His career was in decline, but Duran bought the crib in 1990 for $315,000, according to records. He signed on the dotted line just months after his third fight against Sugar Ray Leonard, a loss in the rematch of the famous "No Mas" fight.
It's the home he used while training for some of his last fights.
It's where he lived with his wife of 45 years, Felicidad.
It's also the five-bedroom Duran lost to foreclosure in 1994, when the Panamenian puncher was so broke he couldn't make payments on his $74,000 mortgage, records show.
"Some buyers are quite impressed with the fact this was Roberto's house, and some aren't," said Realtor Cessie Sariol, who has the listing.
"Some people don't remember him. As a matter of fact, it's been on the market for six months and it's not sold. The sellers are thinking about pulling it off the market, but with the movie coming out maybe they shouldn't just yet."
According to records, Duran was hounded by lenders as well as the Internal Revenue Service in the early 1990s. Several IRS filings show the boxer owed nearly $1 million in back taxes.
The current owners bought the suburban house from the bank for $245,000. Now, it's on the market for $800,000.
