Now, I reject the idea that people who oppose abortion rights are "anti-woman," as the media drumbeat these days would have it.
The anti-woman suffrage women get deeper and deeper into politics year by year in their determination to keep out of politics.
late Old English wimman (plural wimmen), literally "woman-man," alteration of wifman (plural wifmen), a compound of wif "woman" (see wife) + man "human being" (in Old English used in reference to both sexes; see man (n.)). Cf. Dutch vrouwmens "wife," literally "woman-man."
The formation is peculiar to English and Dutch. Replaced older Old English wif and quean as the word for "female human being." The pronunciation of the singular altered in Middle English by the rounding influence of -w-; the plural retains the original vowel. Meaning "wife," now largely restricted to U.S. dialectal use, is attested from mid-15c. Women's liberation is attested from 1966; women's rights is from 1840, with an isolated example in 1630s.

The Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, says the constant rumours about his death were part of a grand plot by detractors to discredit him.
Rumours about the supposed death of the Ashanti king spread like wild-fire on social media, when he had travelled to South Africa for medical check-up.
He, however, dismissed the rumours with a visit to the Local Black Black Stars, who were then taking part in the CHAN tournament hosted in South Africa.
On his arrival from South Africa, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II was in tears after thousands trooped to the Kumasi Airport to welcome him. He said at the right time, he would comment on the matter.
In an interaction with the National Chief Imam, Sheikh Dr. Nuhu Sharubutu at his palace, the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu said the rumours of his death were nothing but the evil works of his detractors.
He said the allegations suggesting he bribed judges to influence the outcome of the 2012 election hearing at the Supreme Court, and other acts of impropriety linked to him are part of a plot to discredit him.
The National Chief Imam and a delegation of Zongo chiefs had paid a courtesy call on the Asantehene at the Manhyia palace on Friday.
The Asantehene said as a public figure, he has developed a tough skin for such outright untruths having been the centre of many such fabrications.
Additionally, he noted that before and after his ascension on the throne, there were fabrications about how he had duped people in the UK, as well as an alleged cocaine scandal linked to him.
The Asantehene said his call to duty has been to serve Asanteman, and that he has done to the best of his ability.
On rumours about his death, the Ashanti king said it is only God, who can determine that.

The Coed & The Professor
Featuring: Beverly Paige and Tony D'Sergio
Date: July 5th, 2011
Duration: 20:00
The ultimate GND (girl-next-door)? If there is one such perfect delight, she is Beverly Paige, a luscious, voluptuously stacked curvy cutie who could be that college coed you see heading off to campus every morning. "I love to dance and play Twister," says Beverly. This comment alone qualifies Beverly for college coed status because students have proven that is what 99% of today's busy, busty students like to do, when they are not Tweeting or distracting their instructors with low-cut sweaters and tank-tops. Today, young, 20-year old Beverly needs her SCORE U college admin to jack up her grades. Persuasion is easy. Older Mr. DeSergio could use a hand and a soft, smooth tit-runway to land his meat-missile and Beverly, a clever, industrious coed, has the right scholastic skills for the job. The Tits & Tug job. It's still rare to meet coeds as stacked as this green-eyed, black-haired beauty. No one will blame him for exploding all over this confident, sexy go-getter.

Edward Elgar
Henry Purcell
William Byrd
Thomas Tallis
Ralph Vaughan-Williams
He uses distinctly Ravelian harmony in most of his music. Symphony No. 5 and the Phantasy Quintet as well...
Si vos agnosco is tunc vos es quoque erudio
Yeah, but far more clumsy and - well - I don't think Ravel would have been too thrilled..
Si vos agnosco is tunc vos es quoque erudio
Oh dear.. Bruckner, what a ghastly vulgarity. Let us not speak of such a foul individual again.
One only need use their ears to hear the clumsiness of RVW's orchestration when pitched against Ravel.
Si vos agnosco is tunc vos es quoque erudio
I had to go with Tallis.
It was really close with Byrd, though.. I agree about the Masses being absolutely fabulous..
But there's something about Tallis that really strikes a chord with me..
Anyway, I've never been way into Elgar or RVW, and Purcell is only really great when considered within Baroque music, imo..
Life is a long lesson in humility.
I haven't see many German, French, Russian, Italian, Spanish orchestras playing RWV. A composer who doesn't exist outside his country's border cannot be called representative in any way. Britten is a far, far more representative English composer.
Anyway, your opinions are exactly what they are: opinions. I'd like to see your orchestration for a 100 piece orchestra. Let me and Tapkaara look over it and I'll tell you if it's good or not. How about that? Let's see your masterful orchestration.
Why pathetic? Show me a German conductor in awe of RVW, please.

Famous names from 1980s and contemporary chart-toppers will be sharing the spotlight at Tring's first ever live pop concert this summer.
Headlining the music festival will be X-Factor starlets Little Mix, who became a household name when they won the 2011 series of the TV talent competition.
Chilfest, which will be held in Pendley Meadow on July 5 and 6, is the brainchild of Steve Butcher, managing director of Pitstone-based company Universal Event Production.
Steve says it is a celebration of the company's longevity in the live events industry, as well as a chance to support local charities.
He told the Gazette this week: "We're very fortunate to have been in the business for 15 years. It's a milestone so we wanted to do something really cool for the community to celebrate and raise money for charity at the same time."
Steve, 47, is hoping to bring in £30,000 for good causes Iain Rennie Grove House Hospice Care and Aylesbury Women's Aid through the sale of around 14,000 tickets.
The event promises to be a family-orientated weekend with something for everyone, offering contemporary pop on the Friday followed by 80s nostalgia on the Saturday.
Artists that will be part of the 80s revival include Ultravox frontman Midge Ure, Spandeau Ballet's Tony Hadley, synthpop star Howard Jones, Never Gonna Give You Up crooner Rick Astley, 1980s icon Hazel O'Connor and T'Pau frontwoman Carol Decker.
Youngsters will be excited to hear that there is a star-studded line up for the Friday evening, including Britain's Got Talent stars Loveable Rogues and new-talent-on-the-block Tich, who Steve says has an "incredible voice".
Excitement and interest is mounting in the market town as Steve admits they had 1,500 email enquiries since Chilfest was announced last Friday.
The businessman, who lives in Tring with his wife and son, said: "We've had an amazing reaction.
"I've had quite a few sleepless nights, wondering whether we'd made the right decision and booked the right acts, but after two months of research, we're as confident as we can be now that both nights will sell out."
Adult tickets are currently priced at an 'earlybird rate' of £26.50 for each night, with children's tickets priced at £15 each. A family ticket, for two adults and two children, costs £76, but ticket prices will rise after April 9. They can be purchased from Iain Rennie shops in Tring and Berkhamsted, as well as the Chilfest website, www.chilfest.co.uk.
When questioned about the origin of the name Chilfest, Steve said: "Quite simply, Tring is in the heart of the Chilterns. But we didn't want the name to have Tring in it, because we thought that might make it sound quite insular and Tring-exclusive. We really want to encourage other people in Hertfordshire to come to Chilfest too.
"Everything's so doom and gloom at the moment, so we wanted to do something upbeat and hopefully bring the community together."

At age 49, Scooter Edge says she wants to try something different, like working in the construction industry, perhaps for the companies developing the Kensington Mine.
Some 300 jobs will be up for grabs, not just for people with geology degrees, but for office workers, carpenters, electricians, loggers and general construction site laborers, said Ted Burke, training manager at the Juneau Job Center.
The center is helping Edge and other Juneau residents who will do what it takes to get their foot in the door at the mine.
The center was put together in 1996 with the help of the Alaska Department of Labor and federal funding to consolidate a number of job resources under one roof.
Career counselors and staff members offer free advice on resume writing and interviewing skills, plus workshops and other forms of job training. Clients ranging from recent college graduates to seasoned workers to the unemployed frequent the center.
Coeur Alaska, the company that obtained the permits to develop a gold mine near Berners Bay, has already advertised management-level jobs and, along with subcontractors, will be looking to fill several hundred jobs in the coming months.
Burke said Coeur, its subcontractors and Native corporation Goldbelt Inc., tasked with building a road out to a ferry dock to transport people and materials to the mine, have not tallied up exactly how many employees are needed in each field yet, but more job postings should follow as early as next month.
"Once these things get established, it's probably going to bust wide open," Burke said.
Coeur and Goldbelt have said they are committed to hiring as many local people as possible.
The Juneau Job Center, as well as state branch offices in Sitka, Petersburg and Ketchikan, are working to fill that desire for an Alaska work force, helping people like Edge qualify for a job.
Edge has worked in various jobs with the state, but says she lacks knowledge of the construction business. Specialists at the center are teaching her the terminology and office skills she would need for a clerical or administrative position related to construction.
"The resources here are amazing," she said.
From there, Edge hopes she can sprout into other spots on the job site, maybe even operating machinery, she said. If she makes the cut, Edge hopes to seek further employment with Juneau construction companies and one day work on the natural gas pipeline that the state is proposing to build from the North Slope through Canada and to the Midwest states.
The Juneau Job Center has been helping local residents with little to no mining experience get jobs at the Greens Creek Mine. The company recently held recruitment and training workshops at the Mendenhall Valley center, attended by 20 to 30 applicants.
The University of Alaska Southeast's continuing-education program conducted a mining certificate course during the 1990s to prepare job seekers for possible employment at the Greens Creek Mine.
University spokesman Kevin Myers said discussions are ongoing about running another certification course in the near future.
Coeur Alaska and the subcontractors will be attending the Sept. 24 job fair at Centennial Hall looking for employees.

First Artwalk won't be the last
Published 8:36 am, Thursday, October 18, 2012
The success of Plainview's first Artwalk on Broadway Oct. 5 has prompted people and organizations to come together and discuss future such events.
Nine community members representing the Plainview Art Association, Plainview Cultural Arts Council, Plainview Downtown Association, Plainview Main Street, the Plainview Convention and Visitors Bureau, the Plainview Chamber of Commerce and Texas A&M AgriLife Extension as well as individuals met at Broadway Brew Wednesday morning to talk about the potential and the problems presented by future Artwalks.
Sally Gubser of The Wall Gallery estimated that 120 people had come through the gallery during the first Artwalk, and Rick Davis actually had trouble closing Uniques & Antiques.
Artwalk was scheduled from 6-8 p.m., but "People kept staying until 9 o'clock, when I said, 'OK, it's time to shut down,' " Davis said. He added that many of the people in the shop for Artwalk the night before showed up at the antiques store and made purchases the next morning.
"The number of people who came around for the first time out was just amazing," said Joe Provence, president of both the Plainview Art Association and the Plainview Arts Council. "It's been a long time since I've seen that many people on Broadway unless there's a parade."
And while parades draw people to downtown, "People are not really doing a lot of business during a parade," said Eric Turner of Plainview Main Street and Plainview Convention and Visitors Bureau.
The next Artwalk on Broadway is scheduled for 6-8 p.m. Friday, Dec. 7. Plans are being made to schedule an Artwalk once every two months.
The group discussed possibilities such as hiring a jazz band, promoting Artwalk at the upcoming Arts and Crafts Festival, and inviting area choirs to carol in period costumes during the December Artwalk. Throughout the year, Artwalk might focus on a theme such as Valentine's Day or Cowboy Days.
Dr. Candace Keller of Wayland Baptist University raised the question of whether artists selling their work needed a tax number. The group also discussed designing a logo and flag so that participating businesses can be easily found.
The subject of getting more area towns involved and the possibility of expanding Artwalk past Highway 70 was discussed.
"What better problem to have than the need to expand this outward?" Keller said.
Possibilities for Artwalk grants and scholarships for individual artists came up.
Gubser said when she, Phyllis Wall and Rick Davis first talked about holding an Artwalk, their vision didn't reach as far as scholarships.
"But the potential was there," she said. "There are so many children with so much talent. We need to find them, give them a venue and put them out there."
Artists and businesses wishing to sponsor an artist or to volunteer may call 806-470-1021.

Do we make naming decisions considering just us WG members as its audience or that of the general public? I think the general public is well within its rights to treat Web Storage as a persistence technology that seems to be like "Key-Value" database.

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) – A 44-page report, released by the Empire Center, details the top earners by region.
In Western New York, a City of Lackawanna police officer tops the list. But there's more to this story than what meets the eye.
Paid with taxpayer dollars, nine of the 10 top highest paid public employees in Western New York are police officers and firefighters.
This new information was released by the Empire Center. Tim Hoefer is the Executive Director.
"Looking at payroll is certainly the first stop in saying, 'Where do my tax dollars go?'" he said.
Mark Cellini, a former City of Lackawanna Police officer, who's at the top of the list, has earned a substantial amount more than the others on the top 10 list. According to the report, Cellini was paid about $234,000 in one year.
"We often refer to it as your W-2 number, so this is what your W-2 would reflect at the end of the year," Hoefer explained.
On face value, the number may seem shocking. But while digging for answers, News 4 learned the officer retired earlier this year, after 25 years on the force.
Police Captain Joe Leo said Cellini was bought out. He was paid comp time, vacation time and sick time. Cellini also received three years back pay, after a contract was settled with the city.
Leo insisted Cellini did not work overtime to build his pension.
"For every person like this police officer, who retired and got a big payout, there's someone who only worked for the month of January and has 11 months on the payroll where they showed down, so this is the law of averages," Hoefer said. "This isn't the end all be all of the information but it's certainly the starting point."
Cellini's income in 2014 was about $41,000 more than what Erie Community College President Jack Quinn made. Quinn was ranked the second highest earner at $192,500.
Leo himself ranks number 10 on the list. He, too, received three-years back pay after contract negotiations were settled.

Student testimonials
This is what some of our students have to say about the LSA service.
Glenn - Graduate diploma business student
"I wish to say thanks to (the LSA) for assisting me in with my assignment...I have enjoyed working through my assignments and for the input as well."
Rachael - Third year nursing student
"I thank you for your support...it allows me to learn in a positive environment and really believe in myself and believe that I have a real chance at becoming a RN and producing good work."
Second year arts student
"I am writing to let you know how very pleased with the support I have received. I think good writing is such a complex combination of skills….The advisor was very clear and professional with his guidance. I've seen myself in continuous improvement. Also, he responded to my assignments and resume with positive attitude. We both worked hard to improve my writing skills. As I was unable to access any other support it was a life saver."
Kayasha - First year education student
"I have gone to see (the LSA) a couple of times now and every time feel a lot more confident with my assignments and that anything I was questioning, I now understand. He has been able to help me break down the assignments and understand how to answer the question from the beginning, and not during, so I am on a clear track from the start. I am very grateful for his help."

If you are looking for an effective method of losing belly fat and getting a six pack, look no further than Truth About Abs. This may sound like stale news except for the title. This is understandable considering that the weight loss market has become the playing field of fake experts and quacks who want to make a quick buck. It is important, though, to give this one a thought because of a number of reasons.
Understanding The Weight Loss Craze
The reason why there are so many products in the market is because people are rushing to lose weight. The motives may vary from one person to another. There are people who have been advised by their physicians that unless they lose weight, they should start preparing for early death. Others are uncomfortable with their weight because mobility has become a problem. Another group is tired of the stares and gossip that they are subjected to by both friends and enemies. Many more just want to acquire the bodies they always dreamed of – the type of figure they see on television with their favorite actors. Whatever your motivation is, good or bad, you will not go wrong with this program.
The Author Of This Program
Michael Geary is a certified nutrition expert and this qualifies him to talk about how diet affects your effort to lose weight. You always have to remember that your belly fat is a result of poor dietary habits. Any weight loss plan that purports to help you lose belly fat and acquire a six pack must have an aspect of nutrition. That is why you should trust Geary and try this programme.
Geary is also a certified personal trainer. There are many weight loss programmes whose creators know nothing about the human body except the lopsided idea they have about their own bodies. But for somebody who has been training others on how to exercise their bodies for weight loss for many years, this is a cup of tea. This knowledge and that of nutrition are the winning combination on burning belly fat.
About The Truth About Abs Program
In this programme, the author intends to educate you to lose belly fat fast. Belly fat is dangerous because it poses a lot of danger to your inner organs among other issues. However, conventional exercises and nutritional approaches are leading to devastating results. There are many who gain weight instead of losing it. Others find that their bodies are ugly after participating in some weight loss programmes.
Truth About Abs is about eating and exercising the right way to lose belly fat. It is a product that negates most of the conventional approaches to burning belly fat by explaining to you what you need to adopt instead. It informs you that some of the foods you have trusted to burn belly fat are actually contributing to weight gain. Some of the revered stomach exercises are also not effective as you will learn from this novel product. Did you know that some of the pills and supplements you may have used for burning belly fat fast can harm you and may be ineffective?
To ensure that you understand what this programme is all about Geary has put it in book-form. With such a book you can read systematically and from the comfort of your house the activities you need to undertake to lose weight.
The eBook is divided into a number of sections:
- Part 1 is the introduction. Here the author explains his experiences with weight loss and the rationale behind this book. You will learn what works or does not work from a person who has interacted with people trying to lose weight for a long time.
- Part 2 looks at relative leanness or body fat percentage. Geary uses this section to explain that holistic body loss can give you the six pack you desire faster that just stomach exercises.
- Part 3 delves into the issue of psychological preparation for weight loss. The author establishes from the very beginning that without the right mindset you are likely to fall along the way and opt to remain with your belly fat.
- Part 4 is all about diet. The author locates the centrality of diet in any efforts to get rid of belly fat. This is one of the longest sections in the book just to underscore why food is crucial to losing belly fat fast. Here you will find an entire food plan that details which foods to eat depending on the amount of calories each gives your body.
- Part 5 describes strategies that are safe and effective in attaining your six pack. This section is illustrated to ensure that you understand the abdomen and the exercises that you can use to lose belly fat. Photos of real life exercises in the gym are presented to ensure that you can do it yourself even without the aid of a gym instructor.
- Part 6 explains the relationship between lean body mass and metabolic rates.
- Other sections are dedicated to various exercises that you can engage in to ensure you know the fastest way to get abs.

text: Hamilton County Commission Hartmann, Portune take oath of office By Tana Weingartner • Jan 16, 2013 Sarah Ramsey Greg Hartmann and Todd Portune were officially sworn in Wednesday to serve their new terms on Hamilton County Commission. Hartmann repeated his mantra that these are challenging times for county government but says there are bright spots as well, like the county Land Bank. County throws out MSD contract hiring policies By Tana Weingartner • Jan 16, 2013 Hamilton County Commissioners are throwing out hiring and procurement policies related to the Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD). The city, which operates MSD had instituted new bidding requirements the county, which owns MSD, says were unfair- and in some cases illegal. Chief among them were apprenticeship requirements and a policy giving preference to contractors within city limits. Commission President Chris Monzel says a working group will be formed to draft a new procurement policy. Monzel takes helm at Hamilton County By Tana Weingartner • Jan 14, 2013 WVXU Hamilton County Commissioners reorganized Monday with Chris Monzel assuming the presidency. Monzel says he plans to stay the course laid out by fellow commissioner Greg Hartmann. "Definitely public safety is the number one priority for Hamilton County. And it's something that's important and especially with the new Sheriff coming on board of what the public safety needs are. So that's number one, that's always been the number one priority to me in government," he says. County orders MSD efficiency review By Tana Weingartner • Jan 7, 2013 Tana Weingartner / WVXU Hamilton County Commissioners are ordering a performance and efficiency review of the Metropolitan Sewer District. The utility is undertaking a multi-billion dollar, federally mandated system upgrade. Commissioner Chris Monzel proposed the review. MSD rates going up in early 2013 By Mark Heyne • Dec 19, 2012 Tana Weingartner / WVXU Hamilton County Commissioners have approved a 5-percent rate increase for Metropolitan Sewer District customers starting January 9. Sewer rates have been climbing for several years to pay for a $ 3.2 billion system upgrade required to comply with the federal Clean Water Act. Commissioner Todd Portune said about 780 other local governments are in the same position at a cost of more than $500 billion. Pages« first ‹ previous … 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 next › last »

When a bug is filed in a free software project's bug tracker, a social exchange takes place. Bug reporters give their time and attention to describing, debugging and testing, in exchange for a fair chance that the problem will be fixed. Project representatives make the effort to listen and understand the problem, and apply their specialized knowledge, in exchange for real-world testing and feedback which drive improvements in their software. This feedback loop is one of the essential benefits of the free software development model.
Based on the belief that this exchange is of mutual benefit, the people involved form certain expectations of each other. When I report a bug, I expect that:
* the bug will be reviewed by a project representative
* they will make a decision about the relative importance of the bug
* project developers will fix the most important bugs in future releases of the software
When I receive a bug report, I expect that:
* if more information is needed, the bug reporter will supply it
* if I can't diagnose the problem independently, the bug reporter will help with the analysis
* if I need help to test and verify a fix for the bug, the bug reporter will provide it
Naturally, everything works best when the system is in equilibrium: [2]

As a decorator who entered the field after a full career as a photographer, I never had the opportunity to intern or work with another designer. I often wondered how other designers conducted business. How did they structure their day? What was their contract like? What procedures and steps did they follow once a job was secured?
Over the past few years I have run my business the best way I knew how but in all honesty, I have been somewhat loosey goosey as far as procedure goes. Well that is a thing of the past because last week I flew to Atlanta to learn from the super successful, top designer Kimberley Seldon.
Kimberley has made it her mission to change the way the majority of designers conduct business (too many hours logged for not enough money earned). The core of her program is a 15 step client process to guarantee a project will be completed on budget and on time. Shocking right??
I highly recommend you check out her next class but in the mean time, you can pick up her new book which is the next best thing.
On a side note, travel is my biggest source of inspiration and I always look for colors, patterns, subjects or light that catches my eye. Unfortunately, all I saw of Atlanta was the airport and hotel but here are a few things that I thought were photo worthy.
Love this color palette and lighting I saw late afternoon at Atlanta airport.
Looking down from the 9th floor was this wonderful image of color and pattern.
Early morning when the sun came streaming through the window there was about 10 seconds when the elevator door opened and you could see all the way through. I thought it was cool but maybe it is just me.
On a design note, my favorite thing about the Embassy Suites (besides the free cocktail hour) was the black and white graphic wallpaper and these red leather slipper chairs. I don't know how I feel about the carpet as it made me a little queasy (of course that was after cocktail hour) but I am sure it would hide just about any stain you could spill on it.
If you have a project you would like finished on time and on budget, give me a call…I have a great 15 step process!

Official tourism organization for British Columbia, Canada. Come #exploreBC with us!
Build your campaign around an international event.
The 2015 #FIFAWWC was hosted in six cities across Canada, with the exciting championship match played in Vancouver, British Columbia. The 30-day tournament attracted a live audience of over one million fans and nearly 10 million viewers worldwide. @HelloBC leveraged the popularity of the international women's soccer tournament to drive mass awareness of the province as a desirable tourist destination, and to encourage #FIFAWWC attendees to further explore the destination while there.
Maximise engagement with live video streaming.
@HelloBC maximised a media-forward Twitter strategy through engaging photos and a live Periscope stream that allowed users to #exploreBC hot spots. To maximise engagement and drive views, the brand partnered with local influencers to host the Periscope feeds. By doing this, viewers were able to virtually visit the Pacific-rimmed @MyVancouver or watch playful otters toss around a mini soccer ball at the @vanaqua. Periscope also allowed @HelloBC to seamlessly stream video from a variety of locations outside of the city, including the lush rainforests of @GoWhistler and the breath-taking @seatoskygondola.
Maximise awareness with a Promoted Account and relevant targeting.
@HelloBC also achieved their goals of follower acquisition by running a promoted account campaign to capture global attention and quickly gain relevant followers. To reach this captive audience, they used multiple forms of targeting such as keywords (#FIFAWWC, #CAN, #USA, #JPN), interest targeting ("travel," "soccer"), and relevant @username targeting (@CanadaSoccerEN, @coachherdman, @TripAdvisor, @lonelyplanet).
Tapping into an audience who was watching the FIFA Women's World Cup provided us with the opportunity to reach consumers through an innovative channel. By using Periscope we were able to profile some of BC's remarkable experiences in a new way to a new audience.

FRANKIE VALLI's 'ROMANCING THE '60s' NEW CD IS IN-STORES NOW[VIDEOS](New York, NY) In his amazing sixth decade of stardom, FRANKIE VALLI remains as visible and authoritative within American pop culture as ever, playing dozens of live concerts yearly, and drawing rave notices for his role in the landmark television drama The Sopranos.
Now, with applause thundering nightly all around the country for the quadruple-Tony winning Broadway phenomenon Jersey Boys – currently in a twelve-city national tour, and setting up new companies in Las Vegas and London – Valli, the singular original lead voice of the iconic Four Seasons song score, has returned to the studio to create the perfect companion piece to the stage show.
On the new Universal Motown album, Romancing The '60s, the legendary Valli has chosen 14 immortal love songs from the songbook of the 1960s, leading the cream of New York's musicians and background singers, with album production by Bob Gaudio, fellow Four Seasons founder and co-writer of the group's many hits. No one will be surprised to find that in this album, the songs of pop-rock's greatest generation are honored with all the insight, joy, musicianship and magic one would expect from the man who was originally co-credited on Four Seasons records as "The 'Sound' of Frankie Valli." "I've always been a romantic in my art," says Valli. "The secret here was to try to make the songs mine."
Frankie Valli released his first solo hit, "(You're Gonna) Hurt Yourself," in 1966, and the following year originated the Gaudio/Crewe classic "Can't Take My Eyes Off You," one of the most successfully-covered songs in history, with its most recent worldwide smash versions by Pet Shop Boys and Lauryn Hill.
Born in Newark, New Jersey, Frankie Valli began his recording career in 1952, joining the group the Varitones in 1954. His trailblazing journey with The Four Seasons has resulted in estimated sales of 100 million records throughout his group and solo career, with two U.S. No. 1 solo hits, 1975's "My Eyes Adored You," and the two-million-selling title song from the movie Grease in 1978. Now enjoying an incredible sixth decade as a seminal force in popular music, he continues to be one of the most in-demand live performers on the road today. Frankie also drew accolades for his recurring role as wily mobster Rusty Millio on the much-lauded HBO series The Sopranos. Jersey Boy star John Lloyd Young won the Tony in 2006 for Best Leading Actor in a Musical for his portrayal of the young Frankie Valli.
Romancing The '60s is a rare and exhilarating meeting of geniuses: a joyous, heart-driven, vital and fascinating redefinition of the already-definitive, and a musically timeless treasure for every fan -- whether old or new, who sock-hopped to "Sherry," or gave the standing ovation at tonight's sold-out performance of Jersey Boys.

Disclaimer: Naruto is the property of Kishimoto Masashi.A/N: Fine, so it's not like I've broken the sound barrier with my updating speed here, but this is like a record for me.
My muse and I suffered an extremely long time-out, one that regrettably still has yet to finish. But seriously. This puppy comes on the heels of a super glorious AHA moment, in which I took a careful look at my transcript and decided that no, my major does not read masochist, and I should take a break and write something. YAY. Anyway, getting to the good(?) stuff: A Lighter Logic, chapter 4
Received a semi-snarky rag on my lack of updates and dude, I am so sorry. Really. Not angry or even bristly or anything of the like (well, fine, maybe a little -- let's not lie here) because I know I'm a dirty, dirty slacker. On the bright side, though, first semester's ass has now been thoroughly kicked (I'm still in denial about the current one. Check back in four months) so I'm taking this brief (brief. Really, insanely brief) reprieve to catch up on my multi-chaptered babies. Or at least one of them. Success is all about taking the first step, right?
You know. Just in case anyone cares.See this icon? This is my YEARNING icon. You know, for a marginal decrease in flightiness. There is no other circumstance for which it would be more appropriate.

I died when Ash commanded a Crabhammer in his sleep and Corphish obeyed...in his sleep. Comic gold.
I was confused as to how at the same time of day, the Wurmple evolved differently...but when have the writers cared about correct evolution methods?

Yeah, a pretty poor episode overall. I wasn't interested in Corphish's sickness since I had no emotional attachment to it since Ash just caught it. Anyway, the only redeeming part if this episode was Ash getting attacked by Corphish in his sleep.
Fighting for real American turtles everywhere. Pro-Turtle since 6/30/13
I liked to see an episode focusing on Corpish immediately after Ash catching it. But the episode wasn't much special, 5/10.

Misty, The Mysterious Mermaid (oneshot)

The Strange Adventure of Bayleef and the Yellow Balloon (oneshot)
The Melody of Love (oneshot)
Love Of My Life (oneshot)
I thought this episode was nice as both an elaboration of Corphish and the whole Wurmple thing with May's Wurmple evolving into an Silcoon and Jessie's Wurmple evolving into a Cascoon and mistakenly thinking it was also an Silcoon. A good episode with two mini-stories implemented in one episode, combined with humorous things like the sleeping scene at the Pokémon center.
Two great plots interwoven into one episode. The whole rivalry between the Wurmples (which became the Beautifly/Dustox rivalry) really fired up the lead females. But Ash stole the show with his endless dedication to Corphish when it was at its worst, which made the episode pretty dramatic.

I knew Corphish eating that rope was a bad omen, and Corphish's antics bothered me tbh since it couldn't control itself. I laughed when Jessie and James wore those fake Corphish claws and I was pleasantly surprised when May and Jessie's Wurmple evolved into Silcoon and Cascoon, respectively. I also giggled when TR's cage traps backfired.
pikachu's face when team rocket tried to capture it was like: "I am so done with this s**t."

Sinnoh Team coming soon
Corphish eating the rope and getting sick was just dumb on his part. He was overly active and aggravating so I didn't feel bad when he got ill. 6/10
Corphish made me lol when he was causing trouble for the cast and I laughed when Ash got attacked by Carvanha.
Wow I can't believe that Corphish just casually hate that rope. Team Rocket doing their motto with giant claws was funny tho, plus I liked how Ash braved the Carvanha stream and how the Wurmples evolved. :3
Lol, I had forgotten that we saw May's and Jessie's Wurmples evolve here. Jessie thinking hers was a Silcoon made me lol.
It was funny at the beginning how Satoshi's Heigani thought that the rope was food and ate it. The Kemusso evolution scene didn't fit too well with this episode since Heigani was the biggest focus. Still, I really loved the part when Satoshi was wading through the river, and also the part when the school of Kibanha started attacking him, and he told Heigani that he was going to help it no matter what or something. Also, I liked it when he told Heigani to use its Crabhammer attack and it lightly hit Satoshi on the head with its pincer. That was also funny.
I enjoyed this episode.
It was funny how Jessie thought her Cascoon was a Silcoon. It was great to see those two Wurmple evolve.
When Ash as taking Corphish to the Pokemon Centre, it reminded me of the way he cares for his Charmamder when he found it abandoned.
Wow, it is incredible how much this show hasn't changed since those days!
Sun / OR / Y Friend Code: 2595-4852-2744
I thought that May, Max and Brock being in Team Rocket's trap during high tide was life threatening + Corphish's illness scenes made me sad for him.
It worried me to see May's Wurmple not eating, but then I cheered when both May's Wurmple and Jessie's Wurmple evolved at the same time: I was really happy that May got a Silcoon.
I find it very odd that the two Wurmple evolutions were shoved into this episode. They would've fit much better as the climax of the "Which Wurmple's Which" episode. Despite its semi-filler status I enjoyed this episode more than the last one. Corphish is cool and I loved all of Team Rocket's lines and their motto was so weird. But when the Carvanha ate the boat, why didn't Ash run to the opposite shore, it looked like he got pretty close.
So this was the Pokemon version of the stereotypical "piranha-infested waters" gimmick. I wouldn't call it a filler because of the Wurmple evolutions and I seemed to be the only one who actually does think they fit in the episode.

This charming and comfortable house has the most perfect location in Lanjaron in the Alpujarras, Granada with free INTERNET - a quintessentially Spanish, no-through-traffic, sleepy plant-filled plaza (parking nearby).

Both pretty bedrooms have comfortable beds (queen size in the main bedroom and the second bedroom has a large single as well as a single 'sofa-bed', actually a very comfy armchair if not being used as a bed in the top bedroom. In the spacious yet cosy sitting room, with its pretty 'pueblo' fireplace, one can watch TV, listen to cds or enjoy our library of very good books - both novels and non fiction.The bathroom offers a hydro-massage shower unit (hairdryer supplied as well as hand gel and shampoo). The modern though rustic style fitted chestnut kitchen has a four ring hob, stainless steel fridge freezer and is fully equipped. Breakfast or the evening meal can be had on the roof terrace, while enjoying the views. You might also enjoy a bbq on the terrace. The house is distinguished by its successful fusion of stylish design and sympathetic restoration of traditional architecture, with tasteful attention to detail and colour.
The terrace has a small bbq, sunchairs and a mosaic table where you can enjoy and while away the hours - a great vantage point from which to watch all the too-ing and fro-ing down below in the square.
Lanjaron and Casa Santa Ana are ideally located to explore not only the best of the Alpujarras but also the Mediterranean coast and Granada. We have both the med and what the coast has to offer and the ski slopes of the Sierra Nevada mountains all within an hour's drive from Lanjaron.
The village boasts an Olympic-size municipal swimming pool with a bar, close by (also another public pool attached to a local hotel & very nicely landscaped). There is, in season, plenty of night-life and bustling cafes in the centre shaded by magnificent ancient plane trees and music groups including flamenco who come and entertain people while sipping a nice glass of wine.
At ones doorstep, you have easy access to wonderful countryside and spectacular walks. Should you want to treat yourself, the nearby historic Balneario (Spa) offers a range of treatments and massage. Massage treatments can also be arranged for you at the house.
For those without a hire car, Lanjaron has daily bus services to the coast and to Granada (only 35 k away) as well as to the mountain villages like Pampaneira, Bubion and Trevelez and a local taxi service is also available.
The town has a number of small supermarkets, a local indoor veg, meat & fish market, banks as well as ice-cream parlours, bars, cafes and restaurants. There are many 'specialist' shops selling local produce such as the locally cured ham, various cheeses and other cold meats, jams and wines - all of which are only a stones throw from the house.
There are many other activities available locally - horseriding and mountain biking, wild flower/herb tours, massage treatments and the village now has a 'water museum' and a 'honey museum' (local honey is also a speciality of the village). The Spa is open 10 months of the year and one can have a variety of treatments there including sauna at any time.
At the house over the winter months guests can enjoy our 'pueblo' style open fireplace (good for chestnut roasting!) creating a very cosy atmosphere in the sitting room. Wood is available for sale at the local petrol station.
The owners are long term residents who are very happy to assist in any way possible. We personally meet our guests on arrival to hand over the keys and answer any initial queries/questions.

My husband and I have lived in Lanjaron for 30 years (we are both Irish) - our two children were born here and are bi-lingual. I have been teaching English to both children and adults in the village for 24 years and continue to work at the school in the afternoons. I also work as a part time administrator at an alternative holiday centre in a nearby village (for the last 23 years). Brian is a massage therapist whose practice is mainly based at the same centre. We enjoy a high degree of integration in the town and are known by most of the villagers. Our home is a few kilometres up a country track where we cultivate fruit and olive trees and enjoy the tranquillity of country life.
Mary Meade purchased this house in 2005
We built and desgined this wonderful little house for its perfect location. The neighbours are very proud of the plaza and their plants which they lovingly maintain and think we have done a wonderful job of designing this house. This is a place where you can get a great insight into an authentic Spanish pueblo where the concept of community is still alive and well. And of course you will meet the ladies of the plaza while on holiday with us..They tend to speak only Spanish but are so friendly and try and adapt to 'communicating' with all our guests. The plaza Santa Ana also has it's very own Saint Ana and her nameday is celebrated every year in the square on 26th July.
I never tire of the views onto the plaza and the sound of the running water - it's quite picture-perfect. The house itself has a very cosy feel to it and has everything you might need for easy living as well as the fact that it's also very central.
Muchas gracias a ti. La vivienda es fabulosa y la estancia perfecta. La Plaza Santa Ana es de lo mas bonito que he visto.
A very well appointed house in a quiet corner of town. The house is well equipped with everything you might want for a comfortable stay. The photos do not do it justice. Mary was an excellent host, and nothing was too much trouble. The area is great for walking, with plenty of walks from Lanjaron, and also further afield. The town is a nice size, with plenty of shops. Cannot comment on restaurants as we did not eat out. If you want a glimpse of Spanish life in a little Spanish town, then this is for you.
We stayed in Lanjaron for ten weeks.😁 Mary and Brian were wonderful hosts who helped make our stay in this beautiful place a very enjoyable experience.The local people of Lanjaron were very welcoming and friendly.Casa de santa Ana is an exceptionally wonderful place to stay,very relaxing and central.We would highly recommend this property for families and couples alike who would like to experience a little bit of real Spanish life and traditions.Many thanks Mary and Brian for helping us to make some wonderful memories.
We only booked one week for the October half term holiday, to get some late sunshine before the winter sets in (in England). We had a fantastic week and only wish we could have stayed another week or more.
Mary made it very easy to book the property and provided good information about Lanjaron and how to find the property. Mary is a lovely friendly lady and called in at the start of the holiday to make sure we had settled in and make sure any problems were sorted out.
There is so much to do and see both in the local area and further afield.
It only takes about 40 minutes to get to the Alhambra in Granada and just over one hour to get to the high Sierra Nevada mountains for the more adventurous.
There are plenty of well signposted walks in the area and the town is well stocked with Restaurants. The House is well located in the town centre but away from the main road on a peaceful little square. The house was clean, tidy and well equipped with good internet connection, British TV channels, books and dvds, so plenty to do if you stay in on an evening. There is a nice roof top seating area with nice views over the rooftops to the mountains beyond.
We really enjoyed our stay and feel like there was so much we didn't see and do that we should come back in the future. Thanks again Mary.
Casa Santa Ana is beautiful, Mary and Brian are friendly, helpful hosts, and Lanjaron is a perfect base from which to explore the Alpujarras or the coast.
We had a great fortnight here - helped by the mobility that a hire-car provides. When the hire-car became unexpectedly immobile, Mary took to the phone and - in perfect Spanish - proved what a formidable asset she can be for he guests.
We would thoroughly recommend a visit!
We rarely go back to the same place but after a wonderful stay in 2013, we fell in love with the area and with Casa Santa Ana, and have recently returned from our second, equally enjoyable holiday there..
Walking back into Casa Santa Ana it was just as lovely as we remembered and we immediately felt relaxed and at home. We loved having breakfast and taking in the late afternoon sun with a glass of wine on the roof terrace - where you can find areas of shade and sun all through the day. If it gets too hot there are two very comfortable lounge areas inside. Spread over three floors (plus the terrace) there's plenty of room, and the house is equipped with all you need. On a practical level the wi-fi connection is good and there's even English TV available (not that we had much time to watch it).
The house is in a perfect location away from the road in one of the prettiest plazas in Lanjaron, complete with its own 'fuente' (water fountain) for which the town is famous, yet just seconds from the high street. As Lanjaron is 2km long from start to finish each district or 'barrio' has its own feel, and it's fascinating watching different parts come to life at different parts of the day and evening.
There's loads of choices for eating out ranging from tapas to full meals. We did not have a bad meal and compared to the UK it's amazing value. The most we paid for a glass of wine was 2.50 euros, a coffee is about 1.20 euro and you can often get a 3 course 'menu del dia' for around 10 euros. For a special meal or even just a drink make sure you find the Hotel Alcadima, with its beautiful views especially at sunset. For a lively atmosphere and people watching try the Bodega.
As a thriving small Spanish town, we really liked being out and about with the locals, not just tourists, and were lucky enough to be there at the start of one of their big annual fiestas.
Lanjaron makes a perfect base for visiting Granada and the beautiful Alpujarras villages. We love walking and there are plenty of options right on your doorstep or easily accessible by car.
Finally I cannot complete this review without mentioning Mary, the owner, who once again was a joy to correspond with ahead of our arrival, and who made sure we had everything we needed while we were there. Thank you Mary - it was great to see you again!
This has to be the best rental equipped property we have stayed in. Mary is by far the most considered owner we have every dealt with, and easiest. Nothing was too much trouble for her, even if it was'nt to do with the property. The locals in the Plaza were just wonderfully. The best part of the holiday was "People watching" in the Plaza, this could continue until the early hours if you wished, but was not intrusive. A great home to get away from everything. We would love to return in the future.
The spa town of Lanjaron with its picturesque Moorish castle has a lively ambiance and all the amenities. It boasts several public swimming pools, tennis courts and a fragrant eucalyptus park. The dramatic countryside/ National park on its doorstep is perfect for walking. Local activities include mountain biking, guided walks, horse riding, rock climbing, Spanish lessons, yoga classes, spa treatments and massage. Lanjaron, famed for its mineral waters, healthy environment and the longevity of its inhabitants, is known as the 'Gateway to the Alpujarras' offering easy access to high mountain villages. Equally accessible is the Costa Tropical with golf courses & beaches. Inland, discover Granada's lively flamenco scene & the spectacular Alhambra or ski resort at the Sierra Nevada.
At home follow the natives and pass the time in one of the many bars or restaurants or watch life go by in this traditional, unspoilt, authentic Spanish village where locally grown produce is still sold from the houses. Many restaurants in the village serve 'menu del dia' each day at lunchtime (a 3 course meal for between 8/12 euros often with a drink included) if you don't feel like cooking at home - evenings are good for drinks and tapas. You can visit the artesan shops in the village selling local produce including serrano hams, cheeses, confitures, wines etc as well as locally made wickerwork baskets.
Orgiva, 7k from Lanjaron is the administrative centre of the Alpujarras. It has been settled by a large number of expats of all types to the detriment of its local character. Lanjaron by contrast, with its wonderful location, is an authentic "pueblo" community with a long tradition of being a welcoming and attractive spa town.
Other Activities: yoga, massage, healing treatments, cyclng, horseriding, walking
Ski: the ski resort - Sierra Nevada - is very close to Granada city itself and only an hour's drive from the village of Lanjaron - you can combine both an authentic village experience with a skiing holiday.
Lanjaron's location offers the most convenient access to Granada, Lecrin Valley, the coast and the Alpujarras (Pampaneira, Capileira, Trevelez etc) and is only 6 minutes by car to the motorway

'Breakfast at Tiffany's' and 'The Right Stuff' picked for Dedham Reads Together
The Dedham Library Innovation Team is aiming upwards for this year's "Dedham Reads Together" events – to space and New York City's high society.
The two books selected for the 2013 Dedham Reads Together are Truman Capote's "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and Tom Wolfe's "The Right Stuff."
The two books are available at both branches of the Dedham Public Library and at The Blue Bunny Bookstore in Dedham Square.
All of Dedham is encouraged to read and celebrate the books, which were selected by a town survey in the fall.
"Our goal is to draw attention to our libraries by celebrating literacy as a community, making it fun and accessible and really looking beyond what happens in the books to what else was going on in the world at that time," said Kristen Overman, president of the Dedham Library Innovation Team.
The kickoff event will take place on Tuesday, Feb. 19, when the Boston Museum of Science portable planetarium Starlab will come to the Oakdale Elementary School gym at 147 Cedar St. Sessions are at 6, 6:45, and 7:30 p.m.
Each session lasts 30 minutes and is appropriate for viewers ages 5 and up. All children under 9 years old must be accompanied by an adult.
A spot in one of the sessions can be reserved at email@example.com.
Other events during the winter and spring will include book discussion groups, a screening of "The Right Stuff" movie at the Dedham Community Theatre on Feb. 28, a communitywide essay contest on the nature of courage, and a gala celebration party in April called the "Blast from the Past Soiree."
Dedham Reads Together was developed by the Dedham Library Innovation Team in 2011, with the first book being Harper Lee's "To Kill a Mockingbird."

Corned Beef Days at Big Guys
Feed your Saint Patrick's Day Craving
Saint Patrick's Day is right around the corner and I am having my annual corned beef craving. I couldn't resist picking up a corned beef sandwich from Big Guys Sausage Stand this afternoon. The sandwich is a total beauty and deserves to be put on a proper plate. Served alongside chips and pickle the bad-boy is so generous that is easily will feed two hungry people! A sandwich featuring a full 1/2 pound of corned beef on thick marble rye, dressed to your liking, will set you back just $12.50. Corned Beef Days at Big Guys continue through March 18th!

This hands-on Python course is packed with more than 25 exercises. Like many programming courses, it begins with a simple "Hello, World!" exercise. From there, students learn about literals, data types, and variables and to collect input from users. Once they have those basics down, students will learn about functions and modules, to work with the math and random modules, to format strings, to index and slice sequences, and to work with the different types of iterables. In the lesson on flow control, students will learn to write conditionals and loops and work with ranges. They'll also learn to write basic list comprehensions. They will build upon this knowledge to learn how to read from and write to files. As part of this, they will learn to create a small list maintenance application. Students will then learn to use exception handling both to catch unexpected errors and as a form of flow control. The course ends with a lesson on dates and times in Python. In addition to teaching how the time and datetime modules work, this lesson provides students with a broader understanding of how computers understand time.

Ukrainian hand embroidered dress in honor of my babcha
My Babcha was a special woman. Her story is quite remarkable and the lessons she taught me were even more so. I only hope to be as strong as her and pass on her spirit to others.
Aside from her wisdom, her love of sewing was passed on to me. My babcha was an incredible seamstress! She was self taught and used her skills as a seamstress when she moved to America.
Before my babcha's passing in March (at the age of 93), I finished my first Ukrainian embroidered dress. My babcha was very sick and it was uncertain whether she would make it to Easter. However, she always wanted to die on Easter and we all believed she would make it to Easter day. (There is a Ukrianian myth that if you die on Easter, you go straight to heaven.) But sadly she didn't make it or see the Ukrainian embroidered Easter dress. But I'm sure she got a glimpse of it up in heaven! (And I have no doubt that she is guiding me through my current projects!)
Dress is hand embroidered (took lots and lots of time to stitch)
Fully Lined
Invisible Back Zipper
This is a compressed story of my babcha's life (Written by my aunt but modified to be in my voice).
My babcha, Kataryna, was born in 1920 in Western Ukraine. Her father, prior to World War I, voyaged to America to work in the coal mines of Pennsylvania, while he built a homestead for his family in western Ukraine. My babcha's parents settled to rear eight daughters, farming and woodcarving in that quiet, picturesque village in the rolling foothills of the Carpathian Mountains. As a child, my babcha vowed never to leave her home or her family. Little did she know of the adventures that lay ahead!
My babcha's faith in God and her spirit of selfless service were instilled early in her life. Early childhood was a happy time for her. Those who knew her thought she was a bright and precocious child. Although her father had insisted
that his daughters acquire an education, his untimely death at the age of 46 brought those plans to an abrupt end. My babcha was nine years old. Within the next year and a half, she lost her sister, Rose, to tuberculosis and her sister, Sophie, who succumbed to a virus. With the additional deaths of three nephews and a niece, life in the her family became very sad.
Her mother, unable to cope with all the tragedy, sent my babcha away to work as a companion to a Ukrainian priest's young daughter, who was recovering from a spinal injury. As a companion/nursemaid, my babcha became endeared to the family. It was during this time, living on the church estate until the age of 19, and assuming more and more household responsibility, that church became important to her.
When World War II broke out, my babcha found herself living in one of the most tumultuous areas – the geographic triangle consisting of Poland, Ukraine, and Czechoslovakia – with the Nazis to the west and the Soviets to the east. At the beginning of the war, she was sent to a school for kindergarten teachers where she excelled. Following her graduation, she managed a village program. However, as the war intensified and the front moved to her town, there was more important work to do. The Ukrainian clergy were being exterminated and the Ukrainian churches and culture were being destroyed. She spent the war years actively working to help save the Ukrainian church and her heritage. As a result, she was sentenced to ten years of hard labor by a Soviet war court, but, by miraculous circumstances, was retried and released. At that point, she fled on foot to a Czechoslovakian convent where the Sisters bought her a plane ticket to Belgium.
In Belgium, my babcha met and married her husband (deceased since 1980); She gave birth to her first daughter, my "Cha Cha Ola", in France. As a displaced postwar family sponsored by international relief, my babcha, her husband, and my aunt were welcomed to the United States by the radiance of New York Harbor's Statue of Liberty on Christmas Eve, 1950. Their sole possessions consisted of five dollars, a wicker trunk of clothing, and a radio. After living their first year on the east coast, the family moved to Flint, Michigan, seeking work at the recommendation of dear friends. My Deedo (grandfather) found work with General Motors; My babcha gave birth to two more daughters, my Cha Cha Nusha and mother; and together, the family joined a community of approximately 50 displaced Ukrainian refugee families. In addition to being a devoted mother, my babcha was a master seamstress, sewing clothing for many people in her community. She also worked in the alteration departments of Maas and Vogue stores.
It was during this time that my babcha's long relationship with the International Institute of Flint began. She was perpetually volunteering on myriad of committees from the booming postwar Flint international scene through the 1980s. Highlighting that era was her participation in the international dance exhibition, telecast from the IMA on Dave Garroway's (t's a Wide, Wide World and Flint's centennial parade. My babcha also was featured annually for her Ukrainian Easter egg (pysanky) workshops.
Whether baking her traditional bread (paska) and pastries, making pyrohy, or sewing costumes, my babcha was always lending a hand to ensure that traditions were preserved and handed down to the next generation, which, in her case, now includes eight grandchildren and three great grandchildren. Ever hardworking, my babcha lived a fruitful life, while serving her family, community, and country. Her spirit is still very present in the hearts of her daughters and grandchildren.
I love you babcha <3

Melissa - posted on 11/05/2008 ( 20 moms have responded )
Hello to all of you foster moms out there. How is everything going? I am a foster mom in Iowa. We have adopted 5 of our foster children and are getting ready to adopt another one. He is 11 months old. How many kids do any of you have? Let me know what is going on. I just put my application in to become a CASA. For anyone that does not know what that is...it is a court appointed special advocate. I figure doing this will help us to see some other sides of cases going on in our area. We will have a better understanding of the need in our community. Let me know.

To cap off our year's events for grieving children, Hospice Care Team, Inc. (HCT) is pleased to announce its special Holiday Memories events for children and teens between the ages of 5 and 16 who are grieving the death of a loved one.
Traditionally, the holiday time is special for families. It's a time when losses are felt more acutely by children and teens, just as they are for the adults who love and care for them. In response to this need, our Holiday Memories events for Grieving Children are going to be offered in two locations again this year, to reach out to youngsters who are grieving the death of a loved one during this special time.
Sponsored by a grant from YAGA's Children's Fund, the goal is to show grieving youngsters that the upcoming holiday season is a time when good memories can be balanced with sadness. By encouraging your child or teen to attend this event, you give them a special gift; permission to talk about their loss with their peers and grief counselors, and help them to honor the memory of their loved one(s) while they embrace the joy of the season.
Holiday Memories will be held at HCT's Lake Jackson office on December 10th, and at our Texas City office on December 17th, between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. With special age-appropriate activities and a time of sharing, children and teens will use their creativity to remember their loved ones in a different way this year. Led by a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, activities will include remembering holidays past, holiday-themed crafts, a fun-filled pizza lunch, and a special balloon release to help grieving youngsters find closure from their loss.
Hospice Care Team is a non-profit, community-based hospice, serving, Friendswood, Clear Lake, Pasadena, Deer Park, Southeast Houston, Galveston and Brazoria Counties and surrounding areas since 1983. The Holiday Memories event is free of charge, but space is limited. For additional information, or to RSVP, please contact Rebecca Deaton, LCSW, at (409) 938-0070 or (800) 545-8738.
