Doors 8:00 PM / Show 9:00 PM
This event is 21 and over
Sent back in time from Planet Vitrus moments before the planet's destruction in the year 2776 A.D, Gabriel Starwood was created to alter the time continuum in an attempt to control the ever expanding human race: intergalactic cosmos devourers and the eventual destroyers of Vitrus. As an advanced cyborg capable of entering and controlling the human body via nanotechnology, Gabriel has inhabited historically influential Earthlings since the dawn of man, from Jesus Christ and Joan of Arc to Angela Davis and The Marquis De Sade.
Accompanied by a small, yet crucial team of Vitruvian Androids, the Propaganda Performance module of the S.T.A.R.W.O.O.D. mission has taken form as a "Cyber Rock" quintet. Raising the awareness of mankind for the sake of the cosmos, a typical S.T.A.R.W.O.O.D. performance centers on the values of the Vitruvian species, their eventual destruction at the hands of the expansionist hordes, and the S.T.A.R.W.O.O.D. prototype's mass manipulation of the human race.
The quintet is comprised of a classical pianist, an effected bass guitar, an analog synthesizer, looped and effected vocals, and drums. Theatrical in presentation, primal in execution, and psychedelic in nature, the resulting sound is comparable to that of a wooly mammoth being downed by laser-spears, falling face first into a pagan orgy.
Upholstery has been churning out its particular style of dark chamber rock since 2007. Drawing from a wide range of musical influences - from Tom Waits to King Crimson, from early jazz to post-punk - the group has developed a sonic landscape that is both timeless and confounding. Their current lineup is a monolithic septet featuring electric cello, violin, trumpet and accordion supported by a mind-melded rhythm section. When not on stage, the group can be found in the orchestra pit composing and performing original scores for theater. Like granny's favorite davenport, the group maintains a distinct sensibility for leathery integrity and peculiar - albeit comforting - odors.

Kathleen from the VISION writing group has asked for an insight into first person narrative*, particularly in the area of conveying emotion.
(*First Person — I did this, I did that).
Deciding which Point of View (POV or VP) to use might sound like a no-brainer, but it can make a big difference to your book. Why do you think mysteries are often told in first person VP?
Because the reader only knows what that narrator knows, and this heightens tension as the mystery unfolds. So if you want to drip feed information, or even mislead the reader with an unreliable narrator you could use first person. (See here for an explanation of unreliable narrator).
Many children's books are written from first person VP because it is so immediate and the reader can connect with the narrator. Another good reason for writing in first person. Deep point of view draws a reader in. (You can use third person but make it deep point of view by treating third person more like first person).
I like to use first person when the character is not human. The English language is very limited. Say you have an AI that is neither male nor female, but obviously intelligent, what gender do you use? I have come across books where the author invents a non-gender specific pronoun and uses it. But I find this jars each time I read the invented word. It feels mannered. (For a look at female writers of the 70s who challenged gender have a look at my KRK blog.)
So there are very good reasons for using first person narrative. Richard Harland has a section on Point of Viewin his writing tips, which covers the basics. He also has a section on conveying emotion here.
Trent says:
'All my books are written in first person.
I think first person is all about voice. If the voice isn't distinctive or important to the story you might as well write in a close third person. To get that voice you really need to know your character well, look at the world through their eyes, think about how they perceive things, what they feel, the lies they tell themselves. And you have to think about this in how they express themselves. What are they going to see when they walk in a room, what are they going to miss? Are they conceited or self loathing, do they think the world is against them, or they against the world.
Education, and vocab are important too. Do they have any verbal tics, that might be reflected in their thinking or, conversely or do they stammer, but their thought processes are clear. How do they think. There's so many variables that you can consider. And you don't need to consider them all, but you do need to be brave and make strong choices – it can even come down to repetition of phrases, or a certain rhythm in the way that character describes things like Holden Caulfield in Salinger's Catcher in the Rye.
As far as great first person novels go I think the best, with multiple first person points of view, is William Faulkner's As I Lay Dying. Every voice is distinctive, and clear. It's a book worth studying.
As is any short story in first person by Raymond Carver, Angela Carter, or John Cheever. "Reunion" by Cheever is amazing, and only a bit over a thousand words long. As is "Fat" by Raymond Carver. There's plenty of more recent stuff, and a lot of spec fic with wonderful powerful first person narratives, but sometimes it's good to look at the techniques of writers working out of the genre. And I reckon Margo is fabulous at creating distinctive 1st Person POVs.
'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time" by Mark Haddon is all about voice, a child with Aspergers, and what is heartbreaking are the things that he sees but doesn't understand. The tone is measured, confused, but logical – he sees the pain in those around him, but can't comprehend it. Oh and "To Kill a Mockingbird" is a marvellous evocation of voice too.'
And there are the authors who mix first person narrative with third person. Lian Hearn did this in 'Across the Nightingale Floor'. Dickens did it with Bleak House, Esther was told in first person. 'Veniss Underground' by Jeff Vandermeer uses first, second and third person narration.
Holly Lisle talks about using first person VP and how to handle time. After all, if you think about it, the narrator must be telling you what happened 'after' it has happened. She goes into great detail about how long in the past events have happened to the first person narrator. She says:
'Time is an essential part of any story, but with stories told in the first person, it takes on unique characteristics as a gatekeeper of knowledge and the controller of suspense. If you're writing in the first person, take the time to think about time.'
There are a of lot very useful writing tips on Holly's page.
According to Tansy, if you're looking for good examples of authors using first person narrative and making the narrative voice distinctive look up Sarah Monette's Melusine books, and Cherie Priest's sub press novella Dreadful Skin.
Voice, first person, time and emotion. Have you read any first person narrative recently that impressed you?

RENEE MONTAGNE, host:
This is Morning Edition from NPR News. I'm Renee Montagne.
ARI SHAPIRO, host:
And I'm Ari Shapiro. Steve Inskeep is on assignment. Today in "Your Health," we return to a study on heart disease that made big news this week. It shows that older people with perfectly good cholesterol levels can sharply reduce their risk of a heart attack or a stroke by taking a drug to get their cholesterol really low. NPR's Richard Knox looks at who needs to be on cholesterol-lowering drugs.
RICHARD KNOX: Annette Convery(ph) of Framingham, Massachusetts, is one of those people who didn't seem in danger of a heart attack, says cardiologist James Alderman.
Dr. JAMES ALDERMAN (Cardiologist): She has an excellent HDL level of 62. LDL level, excellent. This lipid profile is not one that would shout out someone being at risk for a heart attack or an acute coronary syndrome.
KNOX: But last week, Alderman cleared major obstructions from one of Convery's coronary arteries. That pulled her from the brink of a heart attack. This Tuesday, she was back for a checkup with Alderman's colleague, Dr. Elizabeth Asher(ph).
Dr. ELIZABETH ASHER (Cardiologist): Mrs. Convery, how are you? Lovely to see you.
Ms. ANNETTE CONVERY (Clerk, Framingham Police Department): Hello.
KNOX: Convery's in her 70s, but she looks much younger.
Dr. ASHER: Now we've fixed the plumbing. So how are you doing?
Ms. CONVERY: I'm doing fine. I feel quite well and...
KNOX: She works as a clerk in the Framingham Police Department. Her brothers had heart trouble in their 60s, but not her sisters.
Ms. CONVERY: I have a family history, but I never thought it was going to concern me. I have plenty of energy. I thought I was quite healthy.
KNOX: Asher explains the plan to prevent another cardiac emergency. She prescribes a high dose of a cholesterol-lowering drug called a statin.
Ms. CONVERY: Is it possible that if I had been taking a statin, this might not have happened?
Dr. ASHER: It is possible.
Ms. CONVERY: And that's the ultimate goal, isn't it?
Dr. ASHER: It is possible.
KNOX: The study that came out this week increases that possibility. Participants with desirable cholesterol levels, like Convery's, had nearly half the chance of a heart attack, stroke, or cardiovascular death if they took a potent statin for less than two years. Dr. Lori Mosca of Columbia University says for men over 50 and women over 60...
Dr. LORI MOSCA (Director of Preventive Cardiology, Columbia University): This trial really shows us that it's quite reasonable to consider using statin therapy and that getting our cholesterol levels really to levels we've never seen this low before might actually really be beneficial.
KNOX: This adds up to millions and millions of people. So which ones should be on aggressive statin therapy? The new study implies those who have an elevated level of a chemical in their blood called C-reactive protein, or CRP, using a highly sensitive test. That may mean there's inflammation in the arteries that sets the stage for a heart attack or stroke. The study has intensified debate about the CRP test. Some doctors are enthusiastic, but Mosca says she usually doesn't need a CRP to tell who's at risk.
Dr. MOSCA: If you have an increased waist size, you almost always have a high C-reactive protein. It's highly correlated with belly fat. So, you know, measuring someone's waist size doesn't cost anything.
KNOX: And doctors already measure other things that go along with high CRP, such as high blood sugar and high blood pressure. All this talk about unsuspected disease made me want to know my risk of heart disease. I'm in the age bracket the new study covered. So I asked another Framingham heart specialist, Dr. George Kinzfogl, to assess my risk. Most of what we know about cardiovascular risk factors, after all, comes from Framingham. Thousands of residents have participated in the famous 60-year-old Framingham Heart Study.
Dr. GEORGE KINZFOGL (Cardiologist): If we put your numbers into the Framingham risk calculator...
KNOX: Which you have on your cell phone?
Dr. KINZFOGL: Yeah. Your total cholesterol again?
Dr. KINZFOGL: And do you know what your last blood pressure reading was?
Dr. KINZFOGL: Do you smoke?
KNOX: No, I never have.
Dr. KINZFOGL: So based on the Framingham risk score, it says that your risk of developing a cardiovascular event in the next 10 years is 12 percent, which puts you into an intermediate risk category.
KNOX: That's a bit of a shock. I always thought I was one of those lucky low-risk people. Dr. Kinzfogl says if I were his patient, he'd order a CRP test on me. If it were high, he'd start me on a statin drug. But I think I'll take Dr. Mosca's advice. I'll tackle those extra pounds of abdominal fat. After losing some, I might want to ask my doctor to test my CRP, just out of curiosity. Richard Knox, NPR News, Boston.

Teeth Whitening
Why Teeth Discolor
As we age, our teeth often become darker. This can be due to changes in the mineral structure of the tooth, staining by food and drink, and even by hidden disease or certain medications. Your genetics play a role, as well. For those and other reasons –possible allergies and sensitivities, prior dental work, etc., it's important to have qualified dentist evaluate your oral health before you begin any whitening program.
Your Best Teeth Whitening Options
At Baymeadows Family Dentistry, we perform an oral examination, review your medical history and any allergies, and recommend the best cosmetic dentistry option for you as an individual. Many times we will suggest the ease and simplicity of an in-office procedure. In-office whitening procedures are the safest and quickest ways to whiten teeth and can give you a whiter smile in less than an hour.
We strive to make your whitening experience carefree, protecting sensitive soft tissues and making sure there are no obstacles to success. Our professional whitening options are safe, effective, convenient and long-lasting, compared to over-the-counter teeth whitening products.
Whitening Alternatives
If bleaching and whitening are not good options or can't get your teeth as white as you'd like, veneers, Lumineers, or Snap-On Smile are good alternatives. These cosmetic dentistry procedures are long-lasting and resist discoloration or staining. In addition to whitening your smile, veneers and bonding can cover cracks, chips, and slight misalignment's.

Skooba DIY Laptop Sleeve
DIY Laptop Sleeves: Love It or Leave It?
I like doing art projects and scribbling on the weekends to balance my time spent in front of the computer during the week. It's not that I don't love the Internet, because I always enjoy time spent cruising websites and stores, but I do think it's important to strive to be creative away from the computer — even for geeks like myself. That's why I love the DIY Laptop Sleeves, $39.99, which are made of bare canvas. Sure, the designs will never look professional and completely polished, but it's a fun idea and art project for kids of all ages.

Students in the Houston Community College Culinary Arts program serve pastries to attendees of the Consumer Arts and Sciences Center of Excellence grand opening at the HCC Cen
HOUSTON [March 31, 2016] – Everyday, our lives are touched by art, design, and fashion. We live in a visual world in which aesthetics influence how we feel, how we think and how we act. For that reason, industries like fashion design, cosmetology, and interior design have become multi-million dollar empires searching for new talent. Much of that talent can be found at the Houston Community College (HCC) Consumer Arts and Sciences Center of Excellence (COE).
Fashion design student Alan Romo never imagined he could achieve his dream of being a fashion designer until he came to HCC. The former Wal-Mart cashier recently landed a job as a production assistant for a Houston area luxury jewelry company.
"The Fashion Design program at HCC is innovative, cutting edge, and skillful. It has opened many doors for me and changed my life," said Romo.
Fashion design, interior design, culinary and pastry arts, hospitality administration, and cosmetology are among the internationally recognized, award-winning programs offered at the HCC Consumer Arts and Sciences Center of Excellence, which held its grand opening at Central College. HCC officials, industry partners, faculty, staff, and students joined in the celebration highlighting present achievements and the future.
"The Consumer Arts and Sciences Center of Excellence is a great opportunity to serve our industry leaders, our students, and the city of Houston," said Adriana Tamez, Ed.D, chair, HCC Board of Trustees, District III. "We are making sure that we prepare everyone who walks through our doors to play a key role in the future success of our city, our state, and our nation."
During the event, culinary arts students served tasty samples of their work; fashion and interior design students displayed their creative creations.
"I find the students who graduate from the HCC Interior Design program are more mature and better prepared than the students I see from other institutions," said Kip Allsteatter, The KipCo & CS Gulf Coast. "The professors prepare them more from real life experiences It prepares them to be a leader in the industry."
Central College President William Harmon, Ph.D., and COE Director Anthony Hancock, Ph.D., believe the programs are dynamic and lend themselves to the entrepreneurial spirit.

|Fast Facts on Sonic 3 and Amy Rose
Version: 1.4
Sonic 3 and Amy Rose is a fan-made hack of the game Sonic 3 & Knuckles for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis, with character Amy Rose as playable character in place of Sonic the Hedgehog. The games' sprites (modified from Sonic CD) use Amy's initial design prior to Sonic Adventure.
The game was modified by Sonic Retro member E-122-Psi with additional programming and coding by other members including Tiddles, and additional sprite work by ChelseaCatGirl and MotorRoach.
Amy's abilities mirror those she utilized in the Sonic Advance series. She is slower than Sonic and can't use spin attacks, however has a number of abilities (mostly using her Piko Piko Hammer) to gain manueverability and access areas Sonic had difficulty reaching:
In addition, Amy can use her hammer attacks to enter Knuckles' blocked pathways, allowing her to proceed through the game with either Sonic or Knuckles' routes.
Amy also replaces Sonic in Competition Mode. Her game play and abilities are identical to that of the 1 Player mode.

Our Wedding: invitations and cake toppers!August 6, 2009
Now that, for the most part, our guests have received them, its finally safe to blog about our wedding invitations. This invitation suite was designed by me (why yes, I DO also do wedding invitation design! Check out the design gallery on the portfolio site and click here for more info). Our wedding will have kind of a carnival/circus/county fair/summer barbeque theme and I want to reflect that in the invitations. Also Geoff and I are pretty untraditional so loopy script typefaces were thrown out the window. I'm really happy with the outcome of the design.
With the business Geoff and I run together, elephants hold a soft spot in our hearts now. Plus they go along great with our theme!
Next up, our elephant cake toppers! I LOVE these! They are handmade by the amazing Hilary, the artist/craftslady behind Bunny with a Toolbelt. Check out her Etsy shop here, she makes the most adorable wooden sculptures. Well, when I saw these I knew they would be perfect!
Two weeks to go, people. Geoff and I are so excited! We have lots of little projects to finish up and so many more little details to share! Excitement!

Decision over racism allegation against Luis Suarez pending, but Liverpool manager focused on game against Wigan Athletic.
Kenny Dalglish keeps his eyes on the prize
Kenny Dalglish, the Liverpool manager, has not contemplated what his team would be like without the influential Luis Suarez.
The Uruguay international is the club's top scorer this season with eight goals, and his impact since arriving in January has been pivotal to the club's form.
Suarez is awaiting the outcome of a decision from an independent panel over an English Football Association charge that he racially abused the Manchester United defender Patrice Evra.
It has been suggested should he be found guilty he could face a lengthy ban, but with an announcement pending, Dalglish said it was not an issue he had given much thought to.
Asked whether he had considered what being without Suarez would mean the Scot said: "We don't have to unless he is injured and fortunately he hasn't been injured so we don't have to consider what the team would be like.
"We will just wait and see what happens."
On whether the team would play differently if Suarez, who has featured in all but one of Liverpool's matches this season, Dalglish replied: "We'll cross that bridge if we have to cross it."
Liverpool travel to Wigan Athletic on Wednesday night and Roberto Martinez, the Wigan manager, said not knowing whether Suarez would be playing was affecting his planning.
Dalglish pointed out there were other dimensions and changes to his team that opposition managers should also be considering.
"If he is identifying Luis as a danger man, then fine, but I don't see how it prevents him from planning," Dalglish said. "I don't think Luis is the only player that has to worry about whether he is playing or not. It has not affected us particularly."
Hugo Rodallega, the striker, is Wigan's only fitness concern. The Colombian suffered a knock during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Chelsea, which was his 100th appearance for the club.
The defender Emmerson Boyce (hamstring) is back in training, but is unlikely to play any part.
Dalglish has no new injury worries. The midfielder Jay Spearing serves the final game of his three-match suspension while captain Steven Gerrard (ankle) is still not ready to return from a two-month lay-off.
Craig Bellamy may be rested, having played 89 minutes of Sunday's win at Aston Villa.

One of the exciting things about marketing through the internet is watching your traffic increase over time. But this is more than an nifty thing to check out on the weekends. It's essential that online businesses know exactly where their traffic is coming from and what those visitors are doing when they get to your website. Why? So you can deliver exactly what your visitors are looking for.
Your visitors will often come to your website and perform searches for the specific information they are looking for. The truth is, the days of simply surfing the web out of boredom are long gone. The internet has quick become a resource for targeted information. When you are able to effectively track and measure the traffic that is coming to your site, you are one step closer to harnessing the power of the internet.
For example, if you have a site that sells artwork and your tracking software tells you that most visitors are looking at paintings that are predominantly blue in color and that those visitors are coming from the U.K., maybe you should put some blue paintings on the hompage or gear your online marketing toward that specific group of buyers. Maybe you should find more blue paintings and survey your past customers to see if the are interested in buying more blue-toned paintings. There are paid and free tracking softwares out there. Find a good one that delivers detailed information and put it to use.

When Southwest Airlines needed to make their web site, southwest.com, better able to target content to Customers, they called Metaversant. We implemented a dynamic content service based on Elasticsearch. Now the right content shows up at the right time across all of Southwest's channels.
The Marketing team continues to manage content using their legacy Content Management System, but now they can tag content as they see fit which drives which content chunks show up where. Other than their new ability to target content for any scenario, not much changed for the Marketing team. They continue to use the legacy CMS to manage content, but that content is now converted to JSON and sent to the content service. Front-end developers who write Single-Page Applications (SPA) that make up the web site pass context about the current Customer into the content service and the service returns the best content chunks for that particular page given the context.
In addition to insalling, configuring, and performance testing the Elasticsearch cluster in all of Southwest's data centers and lower environments, Metaversant wrote the content delivery service, which serves content to the front-end, the content management service, which allows people and systems to manage content chunks, and a scheduled job service, which automates administrative tasks related to Elasticsearch and the content service.
Managing all of those servers is no picnic, so Metaversant leveraged Ansible to ensure that provisioning new cluster nodes, performing upgrades, and pushing out configuration is as simple as running a "playbook".
Contact us so we can help you unlock your content that's stuck in your legacy CMS and put it to work for you across all of your web, mobile, and desktop applications.

My Own Worst Enemy is an American television drama that aired on NBC in 2008. It premiered on October 13 and ended on December 15 after 9 episodes. The series was produced by Universal Media Studios. Jason Smilovic was the executive producer; David Semel was the director and executive producer. The final episode ended with a cliff-hanger, and the major plot lines ended without resolution.
The series followed the life of American secret agent Edward Albright and his cover, Henry Spivey, who had no knowledge of his double life. Albright, played by Christian Slater, was implanted with a chip allowing his handlers to physically switch Albright's personality to that of his cover. However, in the pilot episode, there was a malfunction which caused Albright's personalities to switch at random, revealing his secret life to his alias. Henry was then thrown into the highly dangerous life of Edward, with no real way for the two to communicate except through short cell phone video messages.
General Motors was a promotional sponsor of the show, and the new SUV model Chevrolet Traverse, along with the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro, appeared as cars for the program's characters via a product placement agreement.
Edward figures a way to change identities on his own, but it may be risky. Tom meets up with a stranger who is aware of his alter ego, and Edward is sent on a secret mission by Mavis and Alistair on his own without the usual backup.
Mavis and Alistair disagree on how the American hostages in Angola should be rescued, in which Edward and Raymond found. Also, Edward's relationship with Dr. Skinner is questioned.
Edward confronts Alistair Trumbull as he continues to investigate his parents' death. In order to clear up a dangerous accident, Raymond must meddle with Tom and Mary's wedding. Henry is not happy when Jack buys himself a used car.
Edward risks national security to find the identity of his parent's killer; Angie prepares for bad news when her father visits for the holidays; Tom and his wife Mary rekindle their strained relationship.
Henry suspects his wife is a spy. Edward makes a deal which could cost him dear in exchange for information with the KGB Agent Mariam Shefer. Dr. Norah Skinner investigates Angie and in the process realizing how much Edward means to her.
Henry wakes up and finds himself in the midst of gunfire; Mary Grady discovers that her suspicions about Tom are true; a relationship between Edward and Dr. Skinner is revealed.
Edward must go to Mexico and get schematics to Russia's next generation nuclear bomb; Tom's wife becomes suspicious of his many business trips and hires a private investigator.
Edward and Raymond must kidnap a German software engineer with information about a possible terrorist attack. Henry tries to deal with the fact that all his childhood memories were made up.
Meet Henry, an average man with a wife, two kids and a dog. Meet Edward, an operative who speaks several different languages and is trained to kill. What do they have in common? They are the same person. When Henry finds out about Edward he is unsure of who and what he can believe in.

You're probably thinking all I do is play-not true-I do work. It just feels like play. In my hometown on the west coast, I take my daily strolls on bluff trails overlooking the Pacific. Dogs are not allowed on the state beaches where they might disturb endangered snowy plovers, so Lucy and I are taking full advantage of our dog friendly Atlantic community this winter. Because I'm self-employed, I take breaks on my own schedule, which admittedly is these days determined by the tide chart. At low tide, we have endless miles of pristine beach to explore. Unlike our California beaches, which are covered with sand fleas and kelp, the sand is clean and fine. I discovered a treasure today. Not something to put in my pocket and take home for the coffee table, but a transient visual treasure to file away in my memory bank of inspiration. (and yes, I also stored it in iphoto.)
As the tide goes out, it leaves magnificent patterns in the drying sand. I don't know what sea life leaves these imprints (If you know, please share with us here) but they are a source of creative inspiration for me. I want to go home and capture these patterns on fabric, etch them on glass and paint them on pottery. But I don't. I do run back to the house and grab my camera). Walking home I remember when I first realized how most if not all of the decorative patterns we see on surface designs are inspired by nature. I remember the first time I visited the American southwest in the seventies, noticing that the patterns in the Red Rocks were exactly like a textile known as "waterfall" in the home furnishings industry.
If you've ever wondered how someone gets paid to design these fabrics, there is an entire industry based on art licensing. It's a great way for an artist to do a work once and get paid over and over. Another way to leverage for passive income. To learn more about art licensing and how you can make residual income in the arts, be sure to sign up for my "News Notes" where you'll get weekly tips about making a living in the arts and in the crafts industry.

Are you under pressure from your DMS to enter into a contract that you are unsure about? Find a DMS who can step in and help you gain control over your current situation and enable you to improve customer satisfaction and dealership profits. DOWNLOAD
Hey you! Not to sound like your mom here, but don't slouch! If you've been on your feet all day selling, the last thing you want to do is sit ramrod straight at your desk, right? Whether you're cubicle-jockeying your way through the day's quota or taking a break between sales, there's an important message here. The way you sit can actually affect the way you feel the entire rest of the day.
Sitting is something we take for granted – butt, meet chair – but the way you sit can affect your mood, health, and even outlook every day. It's even got a fancy name, ergonomics.
What ergonomics isn't:
Mama Said It Best
Go ahead, slouch. It feels soooooooo good. But not to all parts of your body. Your stomach is getting squashed, your neck is overextended, and your spine is totally out of alignment. So all those times that Mom told you to sit up straight, she was right. She was gently prodding you to maintain what the University of California, San Francisco calls a "neutral posture." Neutral posture is win-win, because you don't have to exert much effort to maintain it, but it also primes your body so that its organs and structures can perform their functions with the least possible strain.
Two on the Floor
Why is arranging your office chair to enable you to sit comfortably with your feet flat on the floor the recommended way of ergonomists? Cross your legs right now and notice how your hips are out of alignment with the rest of your body, and your thighs are squished together, smashing blood flow between the two. One of your shoulders may even be lower than the other. That's no way to go about the day! Two feet on the floor, suggested by experts such as those at Tennessee Tech University, sets your legs free and puts your body back into that easy but aligned position.
Chin Check
Imagine there's a laser pointer on your forehead. Now look at your computer monitor. Is the laser beam pointing at an upward angle? Down? Straight in front of you? The University of California, Riverside's ergonomics experts suggest that your computer screen should sit at a slight downward angle. When it's up too high, you hold your neck – for 8 or more hours! – at a very straining position. Just for a moment, point your chin up in the air like you're a seal balancing a ball. (Admit it – sometimes your job tasks make you feel like that trained seal.) While you'd never choose to do this, when your computer is configured that way, your body unfortunately does it gradually, until you're doing it constantly, under the radar.
Save Money and Yourself
The biggest benefit of office ergonomics may be to your bottom line. While there certainly are products that cater to ergonomic efforts, such as specialty chairs and keyboard wrist rests, you can accomplish quite a lot toward ergonomic success without spending a dime. It's all in how you configure your existing setup – and yourself! Encourage your fellow employees to do so too, and you may see fewer trips to the doctor, chiropractor, and pharmacist!
So you've adjusted your chair, settled your computer monitor, started holding better posture positions and you're still not feeling tip top? We have some other ideas to soothe your moods. We developed a free soul-nourishing Cookbook eBook, available right here. I created it for office managers (the original target of our educational post), but think you may enjoy it too! Share it with your admins, bring it home to the family, and let me know what you think!

The 60-second guide to... getting your Lowcostholidays refund
The collapse of Lowcostholidays has played havoc with the travel plans of many Irish people. However, you may be able to get a refund for any money lost as a result of the failure of the online tour operator.
You can get a full refund if you booked your flights and accommodation with lowcostholidays.ie. Should you have only booked your flights through the company, you can still claim a refund - if the airline has said that you cannot travel on a flight booked through lowcostholidays.ie. You are only entitled to a refund from the Commission for Aviation Regulation (CAR) if your travel was due to commence - or commenced - in the Republic of Ireland.
To claim a refund, fill out a claim form (available on www.aviationreg.ie) and send it to the CAR. Include the necessary documents to support your claim.
You cannot get a refund from the CAR if you only booked accommodation through the company. You may be able to get money back by requesting a chargeback from your credit card company (where it reverses the transaction), or from your travel insurer. Many travel insurers won't cover losses which arise as a result of a tour operator going bust, however.
For example, the third-party insolvency cover provided by Blue Insurance's travel insurance does not cover the insolvency of a travel agent or tour operator, according to Ciaran Mulligan, managing director of Blue Insurance. "It covers the insolvency of car hire companies, coach companies, airlines, hotels and accommodation providers," says Mulligan.
"However, we have agreed with our underwriters that where our clients have attempted to seek reimbursement through the CAR or chargeback from the bank but were unsuccessful, we will review these claims on a case-by-case basis." Your last resort (if you cannot get a refund) is to lodge a claim with the firm's liquidator - though this will take time and may be unfruitful.

After being criticized for making offensive remarks while promoting TOWER HEIST last week, director Brett Ratner has stepped down as producer of the upcoming 84th annual Academy Awards show.
Making matters worse Eddie Murphy dropped out as host of the show as well. All that just 3 months prior to the big event!
According to industry news sources, it went down after Ratner had appeared on Monday's HOWARD STERN SHOW where a graphic discussion of Ratner's sex life went down. That after Ratner had been quoted last Friday at a screening at Hollywood's Arc Light Theate saying, "rehearsal's are for fags."
Who will replace Murphy as host? Stay tuned.
But insiders are predicting that J. EDGAR producer Brian Grazer may step in for Ratner as producer of the February 26th event which is viewed worldwide.

Alex Ovechkin and The 10 NHL Players Most Likely To Top 50 GoalsOctober 8, 2010
Alex Ovechkin and The 10 NHL Players Most Likely To Top 50 Goals
The 50 goal mark is one of the most important single season milestones that one can achieve. It may seem common, but it is actually one of the rarer feats seen in the NHL. Since the 2006-2007 season, the 50 goal marker has only been topped 9 times by just 7 different skaters (Alex Ovechkin has done it three times in that span.)
Last season saw three skaters hit 50 goals: Ovechkin, Sidney Crosby, and Steven Stamkos of Tampa Bay, with Crosby and Stamkos both doing it for their first time. With that, let's take a look at the 10 players likely to reach the 50 goal plateau:
#10.) Marian Gaborik
Marian Gaborik has always been a solid goal scorer (see: 2007 5 goal game against the Rangers) but he has been constantly bitten by the injury bug, most severely during the 2008-2009 season when hip surgery limited him to just 17 games.
After signing with the Rangers after that season, Gaborik quickly got back to his high scoring ways, tallying 42 goals in 76 games last season. If he can get some help from newly acquired Alexander Frolov and Ruslan Fedotenko, than 50 goals should certainly be on Gaborik's mind.
#9.) John Tavares
Surprised? Don't be. John Tavares has been a prolific goal scorer at every level he has played at so far, and after a year of adjusting in the NHL, he should be ready to explode in 2010-2011. Yes, I know the former #1 overall pick had just 24 goals in his rookie season, so 50 seems way out of his reach, but it would not be unprecedented if Tavares did reach this milestone.
Just look to last season where Steven Stamkos finished with 51 goals, just a year after a rookie season where he scored just 23 times. I know Stamkos had a better supporting cast, but he shows that it can be done, and Tavares certainly has the skill to ring up 50 goals.
#8.) Ilya Kovalchuk
The $100 million dollar man, Kovy is an elite goal scorer, having already topped 50 goals twice in his career. Based on skill alone Kovalchuk should be higher on this list, but after such a huge payday, some question whether or not his drive will diminish.
This along with the fact that New Jersey is never the most high scoring team, and usually relies more on solid defense and a certain future HOF goalie to win games, so 50 may not be in Kovalchuk's future this season. However, he has scored 40+ goals for 6 straight seasons, so you should never count him out.
#7.) Devin Setoguchi
Another surprise here, but if you look into it, its not that shocking. Setoguchi may have only scored 51 goals total in the last 2 seasons, but 50 is certainly possible in 2010-1011. It always is when you're on a line with Joe Thornton. Thornton's laser passes and incredible awareness make everyone he plays with a 50 goal threat. Just look at Jonathan Cheechoo.
In 2006-2007 Cheechoo led the NHL with 56 goals, while Thornton led the league with 114 points, 92 of those points were assists. After they were split up, Thornton has continued to flourish, while Cheechoo scored just 5 goals in 61 games for Ottawa last season and was sent down to the AHL. If Thornton can make Cheechoo a 50 goal scorer, he can certainly make Devin Setoguchi one too.
Side Note- Setoguchi could get bumped off this line and replaced by Joe Pavelski, who can also become a dangerous scorer
#6.) Rick Nash
Despite playing 7, count 'em, 7 full season in the NHL, Rick Nash is just 26 years old, and he, and the Columbus Blue Jackets, need him to step up big this year. With a young team around him, the #1 overall pick in the 2002 draft should be the offensive focal point, with Derek Brassard, Jakub Voracek, and Nikita Filatov helping him along the way. Nash scored 40 goals two years ago when the Blue Jackets made their first playoff appearance. He'll need to score 50, and he has the skill to do it, if he wants to get back there in 2011.
#5.) Evgeni Malkin
Geno, the 2009 Art Ross and Conn Smythe winner has produced goal 4 goal filled seasons so far for the Pens. He had a down season last year, but he always has the capability for 50 goals, and now that Jordan Staal will be moved onto the second line along side of Malkin, he is finally surrounded with a talented winger (yes, Stall is a center, but he is expected to move outside) who he can feed off of en route to a very memorable season
#4.) Dany Heatley
Here is another San Jose Shark who is poised for a 50 goal campaign, except Dany Heatley doesn't need to rely on his line mates to make him a 50 goal scorer like Setoguchi, he can do it all on his own. Gifted with great size and quick hands, he can always catch a goalie out of position for a goal.
Heatley posted back-to-back 50 goal seasons for Ottawa in 2005-2006 and 2006-2007. He scored 39 times in each of the last two seasons, but look for a rejuvenated Heatley to help lead the Sharks on a deep playoff run.
#3.) Sidney Crosby
With all the skating ability and stick handling that Crosby has, not to mention his laser shot and pin-point accuracy, Crosby has all the tools to put up 50 goals year in and year out. However he hasn't. That is not to say that he can't but he is usually more of a pass-first type of player. This is why he didn't reach 50 goals until last season when he put up 51, good for a tie for 1st in the NHL. Depending on his line mates and what he wants to do, Crosby could either put up 50-60 goals this year if he wants to shoot, or 30-40 if he wants to pass, just like he has for every other year he's been in the NHL.
#2.) Steven Stamkos
After his shaky first season, many prematurely began to call Steven Stamkos a bust. He proved them all wrong in style by scoring 51 goals in his sophomore season as just a 20 year old. Stamkos has all the talent, speed, amazing accuracy, powerful shot, and the pure drive to score 50+ for many years to come. He has a good supporting cast who will feed him the puck and he will be the focal point on offense for the Lightning. Stamkos may be the best young goal scorer in the NHL, well except for one guy. . .
#1.) Alex Ovechkin
I mean come on, if anybody is going to score 50 this season, it has to be Alex the Great. In his five NHL seasons he has scored 52, 46, 65, 56, and 50 goals. He is all but guaranteed to do it again as he is playing on arguably his best team so far and with a playmaker like Nick Backstrom on his line feeding him the puck, 50 should be no problem for OV this year. He could make this season very special for Washington fans.

An outfit is never complete without an accessory or two. By adding a bracelet, necklace, earrings, or other accessory, your outfit will look put together and styled. Luckily for you, it will not take a lot of money to add some expensive-looking faux leather accessories to your wardrobe.
If you make your own accessories, you can save money and create your own pieces that you love. Pinterest has become a great source for finding ideas for decorating your home, finding clothing that you like, and recipes that you want to use. Now, you can search on Pinterest for do-it-yourself accessory projects. There are a lot of options out there.
One option for creating your own accessories is to make faux leather jewelry. A leather accessory can give an outfit that might otherwise be a simple, cute outfit a little bit of an edge. Using faux leather is also very cost-efficient: although these accessories may trick your friends into thinking that they are expensive, they are anything but.

The simplest and least expensive way to create a faux leather accessory is from an old leather belt that you do not use anymore. If a belt is worn out on the ends, the middle is still going to be useful. And if you do not have a belt that you are willing to cut up, you can always search for a cheap belt at a Goodwill store or in a thrift store to make the purchase have less of an impact on your wallet than buying a brand-new leather bracelet would have.
The steps for making a bracelet are pretty simple:
1. Cut the belt to a comfortable size to fit your wrist.
2. Make holes at the end for the snaps.
3. Put the snaps in place.
4. You're done!
It is as simple as that and you have a new piece of eye-catching jewelry out of an old belt.
Leather Hair Accessories:
To jazz up your hair style for any event, a leather headband or decorative bobby pin can really draw the eye. These are fun to make, too, but they may take a little longer than making the bracelets. One idea you could use is to create leather flowers to attach to a headband or bobby pin. The flowers are typically seen as sweet and cute, so making them in leather helps you to strike the delicate balance between edgy and girly.
The steps are straightforward:
1. Practice cutting out the flower shape you want out of paper.
2. Then, cut it out in the leather.
3. Glue the flower petals together.
4. Glue the completed flower to the bobby pin.
It is not terribly time-consuming and now, you have another accessory to add to your hair ties and headbands.
There are countless ideas out there for you to find. Once you follow a couple of other people's ideas for making your own accessories, you can branch out and make your own patterns and instructions. Do-it-yourself projects save you money and give you a new hobby.

Galaxy - An Okay experience
Celebrity Galaxy Cruise Review to Caribbean - Southern
Sail Date: December 15, 2006
Ship: Celebrity Galaxy
Cabin Type: Balcony
Traveled As: Family (young children)
Reviewed: 11 years ago
Review SummaryThe Galaxy is in decent condition. She is showing her age after 11 years of service, but most of it is minor things that did not affect our cruise (i.e. - deck needing refinishing or chairs with fabric worn spots).
While the majority of our cruise was smooth, there were some staffing inadequacies we encountered. One was our dining room staff, which was not up to snuff from our prior experiences. Our glasses would sit empty for 10 or 15 minutes after we asked for refills, the food would come out lukewarm or the waiter would forget items. I believe that the service sets the tone for the cruise and with the dining room staff, it set an unimpressive tone for our week cruise.
The ports were great (St. Maarten, St. Lucia, Barbados, Grenada and St. Thomas). We did most ports on our own. The few times we used Celebrity's tours, we were disappointed.
One other problem we encountered was Celebrity's lack of communication. The end of cruise shore excursions were cancelled, but we did not receive notice until we went to the shore excursion desk to ask about changing the excursion to another tour. Since the excursions were cancelled, we decided to use the luggage valet service offered. This was $20 a person. Our whole group signed up for it and on the last night my cabin received our airline boarding passes, except that I received tickets for a person other than my husband. On our trip to guest services, we found out that the cruise line only received boarding passes for half our group. No notice was given to our group members that they would not be receiving their boarding passes and could not use the luggage service. We only found out when we went to guest services to find out about the mistake on our boarding passes. The lack of communication was quite frustrating.
These last few gaffes left a sour note on the end of the cruise.
We have cruised Celebrity several times and the experience we had on this cruise was not the quality of other Celebrity boats we have been on.

I was lucky enough to get the chance to ask costume designer Kari Perkins about her incredible work on Bernie. Here she talks Texas, townsfolk, and tongue-in-cheek… or not!! Read on~
How did you become involved with the project?
I have worked with director Richard Linklater on several films and was fortunate to be invited to design this feature.
Did you have knowledge of this case before reading the script?
When I first read the script, I thought it was the most amazing/strange story, I couldn't imagine how Richard and Skip came up with the idea. So beautifully written. A few days later, I discovered it was based on a true story. Truth is definitely stranger than fiction.
What were your initial design meetings like with R. Linklater? What was he looking for?
Richard was looking for a very realistic portrayal of the characters in this story. The incident happened in the '90's, but he wanted the costumes to be more present-day with a small town feel.
I loved the tongue-in-cheek costuming. My GOD it was so brilliant. Can you tell me about your vision, and Linklater's vision, for the general, overall look of the film?
It wasn't really meant to be "tongue-in cheek", that's just how they dress in East Texas. They definitely have their own sense of style out there, more influenced by Dallas than Los Angeles or New York. Ultimately we were trying to create a realistic feel for the film.
Did you have to present your ideas to a group of producers for their approval, or were you left alone in the design collaboration with Linklater?
The producers were very supportive on this film. Richard and I were able to collaborate freely.
What was your prep time and overall budget?
I believe we had a 5-week prep, 22-day shoot and a $30,000 budget. Very low budget, guerilla style filmmaking.
Where did you shoot? What were your facilities like?
We shot on location in Bastrop and Austin, TX. Most of our costumes were loaded into our giant costume trailer.
Where did you get most of your costumes? Rental? Thrift? Catalog? Contemporary stores? Just curious about that.
Most everything was purchased from the thrift store with some retail. I had an amazing costuming crew working with me and helping to fill the characters closets. With 72 costume changes for the Bernie character and a 22-day shoot, I rarely had time to leave the set.
How much time did you have with the actors before you shot with them?
Jack came in about a week before shooting and I was able to visit with Shirley in Santa Fe before she came to Austin, but basically we had a few days for fittings before we started shooting.
What kinds of ideas did the actors bring to the table for their characters, and how did you incorporate them?
Jack wanted to portray Bernie realistically. Shirley had many ideas along the lines of what Rick was envisioning. Ultimately we folded these ideas all together to create these wonderful characters.
I noticed the nice arc of Mrs. Nugent – from black, severe colors, blooming in color as her relationship with Bernie blossoms. Can you tell us about how you developed that arc?
We created an arc chart of Marjorie's transformation.
How game was Jack Black to "go for it" with this character? I mean, pants worn way up high around his waist, printed polo shirts, etc. – it's really a "look"!!! It's so fantastic.
Jack was delightful to work with. The costumes and the way they were worn helped shape the character. Early in fittings, we were trying to wear the printed polos in a more casual manner, it wasn't until we tucked in the shirts and hiked up the pants, did the costumes start to feel right. Jack was receptive to the look and all of his changes. There were so many, it kept things moving.
McConaughey looks so different in this film – did he do something physical, like wear pads in his cheeks? I can't put my finger on it, but something is noticeably different with his appearance. Did you collaborate with him to take the "Matthew McConaughey" out of this performance? I thought it was excellent.
We did alter Matthew's look in a few ways. He is extremely fit and we used pads to soften him up a bit.
So many different looks in this film – choir robes, jail jumpsuits, marching band costumes, little league uniforms, ballet costumes and a million funerals… how did you strategize so that you could do all this within your budget?
There are so many different looks. We thrifted, borrowed and made so many. The band costumes were found by one of my costumers in bulk from a reseller out of East Texas.
The "townspeople" characters – they were absolutely brilliant. How did you achieve their looks? Did you ask them to bring in their own stuff (jewelry, clothing, etc) or did you start from scratch, from the ground up? I noticed them in other scenes of the film, so they had changes – just curious if they brought anything of their own to the table.
Most of the townspeople were shot documentary style, bringing their own clothes. I picked out the option that worked best for the set and the scene. They were all such wonderful characters!
How were those townspeople scripted? I am just curious, because the film has a mockumentary feel to it, like Best in Show or Waiting for Guffman. However, this was actually a real case, only dramatized. Was their dialog word-for-word in the script (with character descriptions), or was it more improv?
Richard used an outline for the gossips and asked them questions in the documentary style. In some scenes, he did have a script that they would follow word-for-word.
How many of those townspeople were friends/family? I noticed that McConaughey's mom was in there, haha. They were outstanding and I just fell in love with all of them, especially Kay Epperson. O. M. G. Love her. Seriously, the audience was HOWLING whenever she opened her mouth. Amazing.
Many of the townspeople were actually from Carthage. Some even knew Bernie and Marjorie. Matthew's mom was a natural in her part and Kay Epperson, was wonderful. We all fell in love with her during filming. She was in quite a few scenes.
What was your collaboration with art department like? They did a great job with the Nugent house; just curious to know what your discussions with them were like.
We had such a amazing art department. Bruce Curtis, the production designer and I have worked together on quite a few films. We have very similar ideas as to the overall look. I also will frequently refer to the art department boards and location photos as a visual guide for color and themes.
Along those lines – what were your discussions with hair/makeup? It was a really nice, natural-feeling collaboration.
Hair/makeup was so important to the film. We worked closely together on the arc chart and Marjorie's transformation.
Can you tell me what it's like to work outside of the Hollywood machine? To base your life and work from TX? What benefits have you found? How hard was it to get started, to get established? What advantages do you have??
I love what I do. Austin has provided a very fertile ground for me both artistically and professionally. I started out designing community theater for many years and then landed work on my first film as a seamstress in 1987 through a theater connection. I was hooked. I have been very blessed to design some amazing productions, starting with Dazed and Confused in 1992. Since then I have worked in Los Angeles and New York and still travel some for interesting projects, but Austin is my home and I feel blessed to get to work here.
Thank you Kari, so much, for your insight. It's such a great film, and I hope everyone can go see it. FANTASTIC WORK!!!

I haven't done a gradient in a quite a while so I decided to see if I could meld pink and turquoise together! I started with my turquoise base and sponged different concentrations of my pink and turquoise polishes over it.
I think this is one of the better gradients I've done, I think I just needed more practice!
I'm thinking about doing a newspaper mani for one of the next days, I haven't decided which polish to use though.
Here's the polishes I used:
L.A colors basecoat/topcoat,
Wet n wild megalast candy-licious,
Jordana boy oh boy,
a sponge,
and N.Y.C in a new York color minute grand central station.
Thanks for reading!

text: Thanks to all who replied last week. My problem turned out to be a leaky vacuum line that goes from the top of the Wastegate valve to the WG solenoid. Last year I had replaced all my vacuum lines with silicone tubing. This particular line had a small tear in it. Once I replaced it, the bucking has not returned. This makes me wonder, is silicone tubing mechanically as strong as rubber? It feels very soft and pliable as compared to rubber vacuum tubing. What is the consensus on silicon tubing?

The newest issue of the Japanese publication Coro Coro is out with the latest news on the world of Pokemon. This issue shares a number of new details on the upcoming animation movie, Pokemon XY: The Movie. While most of the details are not pertinent to Nintendo gamer's, but there's something noteworthy in the latest issue.
Coro Coro magazine is teasing a mysterious new Pokemon that will appear during Pokemon XY: The Movie. The Pokemon is a large bipedal being, with wings and large claws. The Pokemon is said to be green which may connect it to Zygarde, which hasn't been explored in any meaningful way in Pokemon XY or Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire.
If I may indulge myself in speculation, the Pokemon could be a fusion between Zygarde and Yveltal or Xerneas, similar to Kyurem multiple forms in Pokemon Black & White 2. Perhaps it could be related to the known Pokemon, Volcanion. Or it could be a completely new Pokemon that we haven't seen before and was excluded from Pokemon XY's code. At this point, anything is possible and I for one cannot wait until this mysterious Pocket monster is revealed.
What's more exciting is that this mysterious new Pokemon could appear in the next entry. Pokemon Z or whatever Game Freaks decides to call the title, could potentially introduce new Pokemon beyond this mysterious Pokemon and Volcanion. Given that Pokemon XY: The Movie is releasing next year, it is logical to assume that a new mainline title is also on the works for the Nintendo 3DS or Nintendo NX.
What are your thoughts on this new mysterious new Pokemon? What do you think it is? Let me know in the comment section.
Pokemon XY: The Movie will be screening Japan next year. It's western release is still tentative.
For all the latest updates on Pokemon, stay tuned at Nintendo News Fix.

Grateful Patients
We are humbled by the hundreds of letters, calls and e-mails we receive from people who are grateful for the care that they or a family member have experienced here at Saint Francis. For every letter we receive, there are countless others who are grateful for the superb clinical care, as well as the kind and caring words of encouragement, provided by our talented staff. Many of our most generous donors have personally experienced the miracles that occur at Saint Francis every day. So thankful, in fact, that they were motivated to fund programs that offer hope for others or make gifts in honor of one or more of our caregivers, including doctors, nurses and Hospital staff. Here is an example:
Carol Martin surrounded by her loving family.
A letter from Carol B. Martin
Twenty three years ago my husband, John Martin, was diagnosed with a glioblastoma multiforme brain tumor. Although John was operated on, we learned that this is a type of cancer that cannot be completely removed. Following the surgery, John received chemotherapy and for a short while, was in remission. Regrettably, John died thirteen months after his cancer was discovered.
Those thirteen months meant a great deal to the family. Our children, who were in their twenties and early thirties, were able to spend time with their dad and let him know how much they loved him (which had not always been expressed in their teenage years.) And he was also there to tell us how much he cared for us. We had so much love and support from our extended family, friends, colleagues at work and from Aetna, where John worked.
The staff at Saint Francis where he went every week was wonderful and made treatment as comfortable as possible. Of course, it was a difficult year but surprisingly it was also filled with many good moments and lasting memories.
As we drove to the Hospital through Hartford, John would look around and comment "How lucky we are to have the emotional and financial support necessary to see us through this hardship. Others are not so fortunate." Consequently, when he died, we established a special fund in John's memory to help those who have needs above just those of the illness itself. John would be so happy to know that this fund exists and grateful to all who have donated to it. It also means a lot to our family that in some small way we are able to help someone else with this disease.

I couldn't sleep last night. I was angry about something that didn't even involve me but the injustice of it all really boiled my blood and it really bent me out of shape.
I was laying in bed wishing that the natural law of "what goes around will come around" would hurry up and happen - sooner rather than later...
wishing they would have horrible things happen to them because they are so horrible. Wishing they would get a taste of their own medicine.
I am no judge. I don't have the right to say what punishment they should receive. I have so many of my own sins to be judged. I thought to myself that one day they will get what they deserve. God will reign down with his wrath and every wrong will be righted.
And then I thought about Jesus and the persecutions he went through. People that hated him. Spit on him. Nailed his hands and wrists and feet to the cross. Whipped him. Laughed at him. Mocked him.
Did Jesus lay in bed at night thinking - You just wait - you're going to get what you deserve - just wait till my father deals with you. You ....You are going to get it!! He didn't do that.
He lived a higher life. He looked at those people and begged his father to forgive them because they knew not what they were doing. He was humble. He was merciful. He descended below all men but he was the greatest of us all.
So today is a celebration of Jesus Christs birth. I love this saying:
I have always loved Christmas. And not for the gift giving but for the traditions and time spent with family. I watched my children open their gifts today and watched the wonder and excitement in their eyes and faces. All day I thought about what gifts I was leaving my children. The gift of time. The gift of love. The gift of teaching them. The gift of patience. Gifts that I want to leave my children - helping them to become honest and independent individuals. I want them to be happy. At peace with themselves and with the world.
It was a peaceful Christmas. I wish you a peaceful Christmas. A new year filled with new resolutions and finding ways to bring peace to your heart and loved ones.

As home to supermajors, as well as a plethora of smaller, independent energy players, the US boasts one of the largest concentrations of energy personnel in the world. With its insatiable appetite for energy resources, the United States is the world's single largest consumer of oil, using as much as 20.73 million barrels per day as of 2008. Recently, interest has peaked in the vast quantity of untapped natural gas resources in the US, the reserves of which were inventoried in 2008 at 238 Tcf, with producers specifically targeting the nation's promising shale formations for this energy commodity.
