"Where y'at?"
I was supposed to be back to work yesterday, but I was way too tired from traveling (I swear, I need vacations from my vacations) and decided I needed a day to re-group, so I took an extra day to get myself organized. I slept in, visited my sister and CJ, bought much needed groceries (all healthy) and went to my parents to pick up my kitty.
Pictures from my New Orleans trip are now on Facebook, for those of you with access. California pics will be up soon!
I loved being away, but it's great to be home! My own bed, my own stuff, my complete wardrobe…My closet was excited to see our new additions: five pairs of shoes, a pair of jeans, a few tops and some items from Victoria's Secret. I think they'll all get along swimmingly!
Also purchased was Season one of 30 Rock and Season one of Mad Men. I think these will be perfect to work out to! I really need to get back on the healthy wagon. I loved being away and eating all the yummy food I did, but the five pounds I packed on were the penalty. But that's the fun of being away, and I think that just getting back into my normal eating and work out routine will get me back to my previous form toute suite, so I'm not overly worried.
It's not only the healthy train I need to get back on. It's time to really get back on the dating train! Yes, I was dabbling before I left, but now it's time to get serious. I've already sent a message to a guy I was chatting with before I went away to see if he still wants to get together. And I've been investigating speed dating. I may need to wait a couple of pay days before I can do that though. My poor VISA took a beating while I was gone, and she needs to recover, poor thing. She's going to be going back in her drawer 😦 It was good seeing you old friend!
I'm going to put up some new pics, revamp my profile a bit and see what happens. I think for now I'll focus just on Lavalife, Plenty of Fish and Yahoo Personals. The other sites are just too particular and require you to have a subscription to even view images. I also have an aversion to Match.com after the whole 'can you send me food to Africa' business. Honestly.
I'm already thinking about my next vacation though. I think a trip to Newfoundland is in order. It's my relaxation destination 🙂

Triple-S country study Burkina Faso.
The financial sustainability of drinking water services : the case of Zorgho, Burkina Faso : paper presented at the IRC symposium ' Pumps, Pipes and Promises: Costs, Finances and Accountability for Sustainable WASH Services' in The Hague, The Netherlands , The Hague, The Netherlands: IRC. Available at: https://www.ircwash.org/sites/default/files/Zoungrana-2010-financial.pdf., 2010.
The funding of water services delivery in rural and semi-urban areas is twofold encompassing the creation and development of infrastructure; and the operation and maintenance of the water schemes and customer management. In Burkina Faso, public action in the field of drinking water supply is supported by bilateral or multilateral aid through various channels such as ministries, local authorities and international non-governmental organisations (INGO). Burkina Faso has adopted the program approach to assess financing needs. Funding for building and developing drinking water supply facilities is ensured by the following four key sources in decreasing order of importance : development aid (subsidies and loans); state budget; internal funds (local authorities, private sector); users' contribution to the investment. It is hard to assess all the financial flows as the data originate from various sources. The statistical monitoring mechanisms as a result are inefficient. In the field of capital expenditure, the financing needs for drinking water supply and sanitation during the decade 2005-2015 have been summarized in a single document. The total cost of the National Plan for Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation in Burkina Faso (PNAEPA) is estimated at €829 million (€620 million for rural areas, € 209 million for urban areas). With regard to service delivery, the strategy for implementing the drinking water supply policy in rural areas and semi-urban areas in Burkina Faso indicates that tariffs will have to cover the costs of operation and maintenance, customer management as well as the renewal of the infrastructure which has been amortized within the ten-year period. As a social adjustment, tariffs are cross subsidized between the institutional and commercial consumers and households. The experience of Zorgho, a small town located at 110 km from Ouagadougou, shows that the "development fund" is a dynamic tool to increase water access and the sustainability of water services.' In a five-year period, access to water services has increased from 25% to 58% using a fund collected at system level to develop the network and household connections. Four key lessons can be learned throughout the water service delivery in Zorgho: the involvement of local governments has improved the effectiveness and the alignment of interventions in rural and semi-urban areas; financial flows need to be increased towards local level in order to allow local government to play its role; the "development fund" collected at system level and its wise use could increase the financial sustainability of drinking water services in semi-urban areas.

Thank you, God, for everything.
DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own Tangled. I'm loving all the awesome feedback this story is getting ME GUSTA. Thanks for reading, all you lovely people! God bless you!
"Rapunzel, dear," Mother Gothel said the next morning, April 5th. It was three weeks until the actual concert, a Saturday. Mother was home from work and therefore Rapunzel couldn't get out to see Flynn about the plan she and Pascal had devised.
She tried not to appear too anxious, though, as she turned from her knitting and said pleasantly, "Yes, Mother?"
Mother raised an eyebrow and said, "Your hair's in a braid, again."
"I was cleaning this morning, Mother," Rapunzel said quickly after a second, knowing that she had actually cleaned this morning, ending her sentence with a quick smile before she turned back to her knitting. She had gotten into quite the habit now. It made her feel a tiny bit rebellious, actually.
Mother Gothel looked at her bowed head for a moment before she sighed and gave up on the idea, settling back into her chair as she said, "Now, dear, a very important date is coming up." Rapunzel instantly looked up at her mother hopefully. "I've got a very large business appointment coming up in three weeks that'll be taking up my ENTIRE day." Rapunzel's face fell; she had hoped that Mother might have remembered her birthday. Neither of them had mentioned it at all, mostly because Rapunzel had hoped to not upset Mother's good moods with news of a day to worry about. Still, she had hoped that she would remember it on her own.
"Sounds wonderful, Mother," Rapunzel said.
"Oh, business is business, there's nothing but talking and yelling and-and screaming, and everyone is SUCH a barbarian, Rapunzel, I only go out because I have to," Mother told her, sighing deeply.
"Yeah," Rapunzel said quietly. She then sucked in a breath and said, "You know what else is coming up in three weeks?"
"What?" Mother asked.
"I'll give you a hint; I'll be WAY older on that day," Rapunzel said.
"Rapunzel, don't play riddles with me, not now-"
"All right, I'm going to tell you: It's my birthday!" Rapunzel said, scrunching her shoulders against herself and smiling big. She waved her hands slightly and said, "Ta da!"
Mother Gothel looked at Rapunzel, almost slightly taken back, for a moment before she said, "Of course not, dear. I distinctly remember. Your birthday was last year."
"That's the funny thing about birthdays: they're kind of an annual thing!" Rapunzel said. Her smile faltered, though, and an idea came to her. Her mother was going to be gone the night of her birthday which was also the night of the concert? This could work out very well.
She straightened and said in an innocent voice, "Does this mean that you won't be home for my birthday, Mother?"
"Oh, I'm afraid not, dear. But, business meetings; you can't work around them," Mother Gothel said, and Rapunzel looked up to see that she was standing in front of the hall mirror, applying mascara for the umpteenth time that day. The subject didn't matter very much to Gothel; that much was obvious. Rapunzel turned back to her knitting with a special sort of smile on her face. She looked to the cookie jar where Pascal was hiding. He changed color and gave her a quick thumb's up, something which she returned, smiling broadly.
"Okay, Blondie. WHY are we at the Snuggly Duckling again?" Flynn wanted to know. It was a bright Monday, with nineteen days until the concert. Over the entire weekend Flynn and Rapunzel had been separate, and she had left him at the studio without an explanation but a secretive smirk that had him wondering what the heck her idea was.
Now, they were supposed to head back to the studio to work on the song, but Rapunzel had called him from the Snuggly Duckling and told him to come over.
"I've got some exciting news," she had told him, and now she was standing in front of him, wearing tan capris and a sun yellow T-shirt. The chameleon was on her shoulder, looking protective. "Come in," she said, and Flynn followed her into the bar.
It was an early to mid-afternoon, and the bar was slightly fuller than it was in the mornings. Right about the crowd Rapunzel had first sung to.
Flynn looked around, trying to catch sight of some musician, someone who stuck out of the crowd as clean and talented, but only saw the usual bar crowd.
"All right, I give up. What is it, Blondie?" he said, hands on his hips, looking to Rapunzel.
She gave him her secretive smile and then turned and waving a hand, yelled, "Hey, Hook!"
Flynn groaned as the security guard grinned at seeing the girl and came up to them. "Hey," he said. He joked, "It's been a while."
"I know! Far too long," Rapunzel said. She looked from Hook to Flynn to Hook again and said to Flynn, "What do you think?"
"About what? The decor? The hook?" Flynn asked sarcastically.
"Our new pianist," Rapunzel said happily.
"What?" Hook said at the same time Flynn said incredulously, annoyed, "Are you kidding me? Blondie!"
Hook glared at Flynn, who folded his arms over his chest, and turned to Rapunzel, looking positively elated. "You need me as a pianist?"
"Yes." Rapunzel drew a poster for the concert from her purse and said, smiling, "I'm doing the opening act. I wrote a song but Flynn wants me to add more to the music. I need a band. I'll play guitar, and I need a pianist."
Hook took the poster and Rapunzel grasped her purse to herself, saying, "Can you do it? We'll need to do practices, and work with the song, but please, because you are literally the only person I know who can play the piano." She smiled brightly and said, "You play it so well too."
Pascal nodded, agreeing, and Hook looked up from the poster. That was when Flynn sighed and said to Hook, "Excuse me for a moment." He gently grasped Rapunzel's forearm and turned her and himself away from Hook, saying quickly, "What was that, Blondie?"
"Hook can play the piano. It'll be perfect with my song! Why don't you like him?" she said, looking from Flynn to the pleased-as-punch Hook.
Flynn caught her attention as he said, "Because he hates me back, has had to wrestle me out of here when I've been too drunk, and I am NOT having him playing piano on a high end stage at a big concert, Blondie!"
Rapunzel ripped her hand from his grasp, saying in a low voice, "You're having me."
"Hey, I LIKE you, Blondie, and you can sing; now this guy, he plays piano during the morning shift when no one is dead drunk except the hung over guy at the bar!" Flynn said.
"So? That doesn't mean he isn't good. Flynn!" Rapunzel said. She added pleadingly, "Please!"
"You don't have anyone else-"
"I can find someone-"
"Who? Flynn!" and the two both sighed greatly and folded their arms, glaring at the other, though Rapunzel's face could hardly count as a glare.
Flynn finally sighed and said, turning to Hook, "Fine, we've got YOU as the pianist!"
"That's great!" Hook said.
Rapunzel, at the same time, squealed loudly, probably breaking any hearing aids that the patrons were wearing, and instantly wrapped her arms around Flynn, hugging him tightly for a moment in her happiness. He grunted, not used to affection from her, and she let go and turned, undeterred, to Hook, and said, "Do you know anyone who can play drums?"
"I got this college kid working for me. Can play the accordion a bit. I'll see what he can do," Hook said.
"That sounds so great! Right, Flynn?" Rapunzel said, throwing him a look.
Flynn sighed but nodded. "Yeah, we'll expect you at THIS address" - he handed Hook one of the studio's business cards - "tomorrow morning at ten." He looked to Rapunzel and said, "We've got a lot more practicing now, Blondie. And you need to rework your song a bit."
"And that's where you're helping me, right, Flynn?" Rapunzel said cheerfully. Pascal threw the man a look, making Flynn nod.
Rapunzel nodded and hurried to the door, making Flynn go after her. Hook waved after them, saying, "You all come back now, you hear?"
The two young adults and the chameleon walked down the dirty, cracked sidewalk as they made their way to the prestigious part of the city. Rapunzel, one hand holding tightly to her purse, which had its strap on her shoulder, and her other swinging slightly by her side, looked dreadfully pleased with herself. She was humming.
"That was your plan, Blondie?" Flynn said, incredulous, (annoyed sounding as well), as he hurried to keep up with her short, quick steps.
"Yes, and it was a VERY good plan. You agreed to it," Rapunzel said, nodding.
"You're persuasive," he said.
"Is that a good thing?" Rapunzel asked as they came to an intersection. Flynn automatically reached out in front of her, holding his arm out to keep her from going out into the busy street.
"It's a good thing you've got that purse on you," Flynn said sarcastically.
Rapunzel frowned, holding her black purse protectively, and said, "I will use this."
"Exactly what I thought."
Rapunzel raised an eyebrow, which he raised back, and then nodded for her to go ahead and cross the road. After a few minutes of walking past the patrons of Hollywood, Flynn got an idea (and as he said it, he had no idea why he had gotten it or why he was mentioning it to Rapunzel at all). He turned to Rapunzel, making them both stop, and said, "Hey, are you hungry? I know a great place for lunch."
"Um, okay. What's it called?" Rapunzel asked.
"It's a outdoors-y, farmer's market sort of place," he said. They walked on, and he continued, "It's warm out and it's out in the open. I think you'll like it. They sell ducklings there!"
"Well, I DO like ducklings," Rapunzel said, remembering.
"Yay!" Flynn said sarcastically, and after a few minutes of walking around and asking for directions from a police officer ("Flynn, you're lost! Just ask for directions!" "A real man doesn't need to ask for directions!" "Flynn!" "Ugh, fine . . ."), they arrived at a cute long bridge. They walked over it and a large, rushing river that blended in well with the grassy pastures and trees of what looked like a park.
"Ah, there it is. Corona!" Flynn said, and he waved ahead to a little place that made Rapunzel gasp with delight. It was like a smaller part of the city, with apartments that were close together and an open air market and people talking and walking everywhere on a tan rock paved road. It was like a little place from Europe, in Flynn's opinion, but as Rapunzel had never seen such a place as Italy or any part of Europe to compare it to, she just thought it a lovely little piece of heaven she had never seen.
"Flynn!" she said. She turned and started walking backwards, jumping up and down excitedly. She could barely talk, it was so wonderful.
"You're welcome," he said, walking after her. "Careful, Blondie. Don't want anyone walking on your hair."
"Good thing I've got a braid in, then, huh?" Rapunzel said shakily with a laugh. She turned around and stepped off the bridge into the market. It smelled like fresh bread and pastries and vegetables. There was stalls marketing everything right next to the apartments, where children were laughing and riding on skates and playing jacks and skipping ropes.
Rapunzel spun around, laughing, giggling, so incredibly excited. Pascal cheered from her shoulder.
She stopped when she saw Flynn watching her, hands on his hips, a curious look on his face.
"So," she said breathlessly, straightening. "Where do we go first?"
Thanks for reading! God bless you!

Micheal Martin joined Sean from our Dáil studio.
On September 29, 2013, Emmett Connolly, a 32 year old qualified archaeologist who had just returned home from travelling in Australia was stabbed 17 times on a night out in Cootehill in County Cavan.

Gabriel Keaveny of the Prison Officers Association spoke to Sean with the breaking news that two prison officers have been hospitalised this morning following an attack at Mountjoy Prison.
Remarks made by a judge in Britain days after Karen Buckley was killed have caused outrage. British Judge Nigel Cadbury was warning of the dangers of drunkenness when he was sentencing a young woman for assault. He went on to link the warning to Karen's killing saying it was 'very, very worrying how young girls put themselves in such very, very vulnerable positions'. Karen's friends have told the police that she was not drunk on the night she disappeared.
Joining Sean was Ellen O'Malley Dunlop, CEO of the Rape Crisis Centre.

Ciaran Hancock, Irish Times Finance Correspondent, joined Sean from our Dáil studio with the latest on what has been heard so far this morning, day two.
Currently, Ireland is one of the few countries in Europe that does not offer some form of paternity leave. New fathers have to rely on the kindness of their employers or take annual leave to be able to spend time at home with their brand new offspring.
However, surprise-surprise, things are rather different for our Scandinavian brothers. In Sweden, companies actively encourage and support dads to take paid leave of two months.
There is a possibility of two weeks paternal leave to be included in the family leave bill… a move backed by ministers. So why should Dads take it and what are the benefits to us as a society with fathers learning the ropes and bonding their babies?
Joining Sean was David Robbins, a lecturer and PhD researcher in DCU – and father to Grace – and from Stockholm was journalist, father of two, Philip O'Connor.

This project explores networks of women strengthening community resilience as they respond to a diversity of different kinds of social crises. Through an interdisciplinary cross-scalar collaboration, the research team will focus on understanding the how women's networks respond to disruptions. This pilot project will focus on the following 5 case studies:
- Mothers Out Front – An advocacy organization founded in 2013 to promote clean energy and advocate for local, state, and federal policies to address climate change.
- Moms Demand Action - A group founded in 2012, in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, to reduce gun violence and advocate for stricter gun control laws.
- Mothers Against Drunk Driving – An organization, founded in 1980 by a mother whose teenaged daughter was killed by a drunk driver, that has been extraordinarily successful in its mission to implement federal and state policies to eliminate drunk driving.
- Mothers of the Movement – A group of women whose African-American children have been killed by police or extrajudicial gun violence. Several members, including the mothers of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, and Sandra Bland have made appearances at key political and cultural events to speak out about violence against Black Americans.
- Women's Movement – A grass-roots response to the election of and inauguration of Donald Trump, dedicated to advancing intersectional women's political issues.

Not Your %@$#*^! Consumer
Many marketers are realising that in a world where companies are trying to get closer to people who engage with brands, using the word "consumer" may not be appropriate anymore. While some people will argue that this is just a matter of semantics, whole idea of consuming-that is using up or devouring- run against the grain of what brands want to do these days. Jim Stengel the marketing chief of P&G believes that marketers have to make a mind-set shift from 'telling and selling' to 'building relationships' ."We need to think beyond consuming … and to really directly understand the role and the meaning the brand has in people's lives." Lisa a consultant from Forrester was stumped at a recent conference, when one of the questions revolved around the casual use of the word consumer. "Having been steeped for years in classical marketing, I use the term "consumer" naturally and unthinkingly. However, terms like consumer, eyeballs, click throughs serve to distance us from the actual people who are out actually trying to connect and relate to others online." She wrote on her blog. More from the Forrester Blog. Also interesting thinking on a concept of Organic Branding.

I had a hard time with this Top 5. There were so many choices that it was hard to narrow it down. I'm still not sure I picked correctly. Is there a "correctly" for this? All these characters are fabulous, as are the books they inhabit. And when you're done with these, I have a few more for you. Just read more posts here on T Rex Reads.
Luna Lovegood – from the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling.
Luna is unapologetically weird. I love her perspective on the world around her. She believes in things that may or may not be real, she takes teasing from others with good humor. She knows she's different, and instead of letting that upset her, she embraces it. In addition, she is a wise and loyal friend.
Grover – from the Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan
Grover is silly and awkward (and he loves enchiladas!), but he's also fiercely loyal. If I could bring him out of the book and take him home, I would. He's ridiculously endearing, and I love him.
Butler – from the Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer
Butler is an unusual father figure for Artemis. His designated job is bodyguard, and he performs it admirably. But in the absence of Artemis's father, Butler has become something more. He is keenly aware of his boundaries as bodyguard, but he's also not afraid to overstep them when it seems necessary. When Artemis is not thinking things through, when he's not taking care of himself, when he's too confident. The scales of power may be tipped in a particular direction, but despite that, Butler and Artemis become strong friends.
Aunt Cleo – from A Snicker of Magic by Natalie Lloyd.
Aunt Cleo is equal parts feisty, loving, cynical and sweet in this southern charmer. The main character, Felicity Pickle, sees words around people and things, and the words that consistently come up around her Aunt Cleo are "Patch it. Mend it. Stitch it back together." This is just what Cleo does. She's the glue, or the stitches, that hold the pieces of her family's lives together.
Bartimaeus – from The Bartimaeus Trilogy by Jonathan Stroud
Bartimaeus is a demon that the main character calls up. His footnotes are sprinkled liberally throughout the books. They are sarcastic and completely hilarious. I'm pretty sure Jonathan Stroud is a genius for having come up with him. You should go read it now. Seriously, right now. Go. Shoo.

1MDB board outrage as US$700m goes to Good Star
Slightly over half a year since its conception as Terengganu Investment Authority, the now Finance Ministry-owned 1MDB made its first deal – and blunder.
On Sep 30, 2009, it parted with a massive US$1 billion after less than two weeks of due diligence – a whopping US$700 million of which went to an unrelated firm, Jho Low-linked Good Star Limited.
On social media that day, Li Lin Seet, an associate of Low whom Sarawak Report linked to the deal, mentioned feeling "the earth moving". Eleven days later Li was in Las Vegas, guzzling world's expensive champagne, Cristal.
Over in Kuala Lumpur, however, the 1MDB board was in a less celebratory mood.
"Visibly upset" was how then Felda Holdings managing director and 1MDB board member Bakke Mohd Salleh described the 1MDB board when it found out US$700 million went to Good Star.
It also had other reasons to be "shocked and angry" – it had okayed a deal with PetroSaudi only if terms like independent valuation of assets were complied to. They were not.
"Flabbergasted", Bakke decided he wanted nothing to do with 1MDB anymore. He resigned.
But the US$700 million – which then 1MDB CEO Shahrol Azral Halmi said actually went to PetroSaudi through its subsidiary Good Star – was not the end of 1MDB's generosity to the little known Saudi firm.
Oct 3, 2009 – 1MDB board is "shocked and angry" over the Good Star transfer and issues a stern warning to management for flouting their advice.
Among others, it wants the US$700 million returned and banked into the proper accounts, a written confirmation of the value of the asset, a presentation by Edward L Morse and for another independent valuation.
"Flabbergasted" and "annoyed" with management's non-compliance, Bakke informs the board he does not want to be associated with 1MDB anymore.

CU Victory: Court dismisses another ADA lawsuit
(April 6, 2018)
In another win for credit unions facing litigation over unclear website requirements under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a federal district court in Virginia again found that the plaintiff to such a lawsuit did not have standing to sue Washington Gas Light Federal Credit Union because he was not eligible for membership and would likely not use the credit union's services.

|Size: 114.10 Km?
Population: Approx. 3,000
Residents known as: Moriscos
Monuments: Church of Santiago, Shrine to the Vera Cruz (True Cross), Taivilla and Villares archaeological sites, Caves of La Hoguera and Quebrada Fountain.
Geographical situation: On the western edge of the Guadalhorce Valley, bordering on El Burgo.
Tourist information: Town Hall, Plaza Buenavista, 1. 29566. Malaga.
Phone: 952 456 561 Fax: 952 456 976
The village of Casarabonela lies on the western side of the Guadalhorce valley, although the municipal district stretches westwards into the Ronda mountains. Casarabonela itself has two peaks, Alcapara?n at 1,200 metres and Preita at 1,521. To the west and north-west the municipality is bounded by the River Tur?n and the municipality of El Burgo. The countryside is composed of a mixture of limestone rock and mountains covered with pine trees, making for exceptionally beautiful scenery. Much of the area immediately around the village is terraced and planted with vegetables and fruit trees, all the way from the bottom of the valley to the start of the bare rock. The mountainous outcrop of La Robla, with a height of 563 metres, stands right in the middle of the municipal district, surrounded by olive groves and cornfields.
Casarabonela has been inhabited since Neolithic times, but the most important remains, for their high degree of conservation, are the Roman ones, these having at one time constituted the basis of what is today the village proper. In Roman days Casarabonela was known as Castra Vinaria, meaning wine castle. The Romans built roads right across the area, the remains of two of them still being visible today: one going south towards Malaga and another going west towards Ronda. Later, the Arabic settlers refrained from destroying what was left of the Roman village, even going so far as to reinforce the old fortress and keep the same name, which then became corrupted to Csar Bonaira. The quality of the Arabic building work made Casarabonela one of the most difficult villages for the Christian troops to seize during the re-conquest. After the expulsion of the Moors the land was shared out among Christian settlers from Extremadura and other parts of Andaluc?a. In 1574 King Philip II gave the village the title of "villa" or town, recorded in a special charter that is still to be found in the Town Hall archives.

The fair in honour of St James is held in the last week of July, when open air dancing in the decorated streets continues late into the night. There are several other interesting feast days during the year. On November 7th the Romer?a in honour of the Virgen de los Rondeles takes place. The May Cross Festival is held on May 7th, while the feast of the Virgin of Rondeles is celebrated on December 12th. The whole village comes out into the streets on New Year?s Eve to eat their 12 grapes to the striking of the Town Hall clock.
|The most traditional dish in Casarabonela is the sopa perota. This is a soup made by frying chopped tomatoes and peppers in a frying pan and then adding water and boiling all the ingredients together. When ready to eat, breadcrumbs are added. In recent years many handicraft workshops have sprung up here in order to revive traditional crafts such as pottery. Rush and esparto grass articles are also made in the town.
The flora is typical of Mediterranean woodland, with holm oaks and pine trees, many of which have been planted in recent years, and scrubland covered with esparto grass, fan palms and gorse. Rosemary, juniper and rock rose also grow in the countryside around the village. The municipal district, especially around La Robla, is notable for the many species of large bird found here, such as booted eagles, goshawks, kestrels, harriers, buzzards and eagle owls. At ground level there are foxes and occasionally mountain goats and roe deer.

I finally got my husband back this morning for all my early mornings. My husband is a work – a – holic. If the boss says be there at 7 we are there between 6 and 6:30… IN THE A.M. PEOPLE!!! I don't have to be at work until 8 or 9. We have one vehicle so I have to get up and come to work early.
Yesterday morning Jeff and Dj got up to go to work at 3 A.M. They got home bout 10 then we went back for a Fourth of July party in which there was much drinking. We got in bed just after midnight. The boss told Jeff and Dj to be at work at 10 A.M. today. I had to be here at 8. As I was dropping them off at work (they were tired and hung over) I just laughed and said payback's a bitch ain't it!
I'm not sure if I've talked about my stalker on here before but I had one for a while last year. He quit working here right after I shut him down and told him I wouldn't go out with him. A few months later I married Jeff and right after he came back to work here. Two weeks ago he saw my wedding ring for the first time. He just called me today to get a fuel number. I gave him the number and he said "Thank you Bitch!" and then hung up on me.
Maybe next week I will dig out all the creepy letters he wrote me and type them up for your viewing pleasure.

Munchie came into the branch's care through no fault of her own following a change in family circumstances. She is 13 years young and in good health and has been with her foster family for a few weeks now and is getting them used to her ways.

A spokeswoman for West Lothian Cats Protection said: "Munchie loves to look out of the window watching the birds and the neighbours' passing cats, followed with a nice nap. She also enjoys sitting on your lap being stroked. We are looking for a home with safe access to the garden for Munchie to explore in a home with no other cats so that Munchie can receive 100 per cent of the attention.

Skip to comments.H.O.T. Chapter of FR Heading Back to Crawford (Special 8/17 PM Update pending)
Posted on 08/16/2005 5:38:10 PM PDT by basilEdited on 08/17/2005 11:26:07 AM PDT by Lead Moderator. [history]
The Heart of Texas Chapter is planning a return to Crawford on Saturday, August 27. Our purpose this time will be to team up with the Move America Forward Caravan, which will originate in California, and pick up supporters from across the country. More can be found about Move America Forward here:MAF
We hope that with this much advance notice, more Freepers will be able to join us this time.
I have spent most of the day trying to contact someone at MAF, but they are so busy they haven't gotten back to me yet. However, it shouldn't be hard to notice a caravan of buses and cars in Crawford, so we will be able to jump in with them with no problem.
I spoke with Police Chief Donnie today, and he really seemed happy to hear that we were coming back. We won't need a permit this time, as we will be a tag on to the MAF permit.
Everyone with suggestions for signs, tactics, etc. please chime in. This will be another Support the Troops Rally--but MAF will probably get in a little Sheehan bashing--which is fine with me!
I watched Melanie Morgan on Hairball tonight...and Chrissy just totally dismissed everything she was saying..
and was totally buying into Cindy Sheehan's like of thinking (?)....
I did hear him say "Good luck on your caravan"!
She claims that Casey didn't want to go to Iraq...We need to counter that! He volunteered to go for a second tour, and he volunteered for the mission that he was killed on.
You have a good idea, but don't count on them to make any difference..
Last night, Chrissy Matthews had on an Iraqi woman, who is down in Crawford with the pro-troops protestors...when she couldn't understand his questions, or didn't answer his questions fast enough...(remember she is Iraqi, and spoke English, but not perfectly)...he YELLED AT HER...He was insulting to her when she said that the Iraqi people appreciate America, and want our help...
He jumped down her throat on that comment, asking her HOW LONG she expects Americans to be over there spending OUR money and stuff...she said she didn't know..
and he said "yeah, that is the problem, no one know..and 10 years is way to long"...
I agree with a little bashing. The Little General needs to hear the truth! I'm coming with my "bashing" poster.
I'd love to see some "street theater" from our side. We need to get creative - like we do in Dallas for *You Know What* every year. FREEPMAIL IDEAS.
I'm sure the media and the leftists have become good friends since they're all spending every minute together over there so we need a "hook" to draw the media's undivided attention, IMO.
Keep up the great work.
Isn't it great that the "MSM" is not longer in charge!
Is there any chance one of the other ranchers nearby would allow HOT FReepers and MAF on their land for a rally? Or will you again be at the park where you rallied last Saturday?
Good luck to you all. Thank you for being in Crawford and really SUPPORTING OUR TROOPS!
Chrissy Boy is such a jerk. Too bad the Iraqi lady wasn't quick enough on the draw to ask him when we will stop spending money and bring American troops home from Bosnia, Kosovo, South Korea, Japan, Germany, etc. And since when has Chrissy cared about the American government spending money overseas, like the billions in aid given to Africa and the Palestinian Authority, most of which probably went directly into the bank accounts of assorted kleptocrats?
What would be good is if you could get a bunch of troops from Ft. Hood to go down.
I suggest that Cindy's own wacko quotes be individually put up on huge placards, with the dates and venues she delivered them.
And then another saying "Atta Girl Cindy!" with a photoshop pic of Mohammed Atta giving a thumbs up.
I'm mildly upset that you don't include me in that list.
With our side acting with our usual high standards, and their side acting like idiots (as usual), it won't be long before some anti-war liberal dope does something embarrassing that's caught on tape.
Keep your cameras ready!
I'm delighted to know that only about a dozen people even bothered to watch little Chrissy having yet another hissy-fit! And many thanks to you for watching. That takes guts, LOL!
I read somewhere that her son Casey reenlisted 5 months before he was killed. He wanted to go back to Iraq (probably to get away from his mom...too)
WOW! GREAT idea!! I wonder how we could get a contact number? Anybody? Let me know!
I was out of town last weekend...I'm bringing a car load to Crawford for the next rally on the 27th...

AN: Well it's 2am and I read this but I may have missed so spelling/grammer errors. I really like how this turned out and I hope for reviews. XD
It had been three weeks since the attack from the giant homunculus. Riza Hawkeye still couldn't sleep through the night. She had nightmares about being killed or that the monster had somehow managed to kill her Colonel. Once again she woke up from the nightmare and decided to just get ready for work. 'I wish I could at least have one night of peace.' Riza sighed and went out the door and headed to work. She was always the first one to arrive so she could have some peace before the others got in and decided to complain about all the work that had to be done. She had just gotten the paperwork when Feury walked in with Falman.
"Hey Lieutenant Hawkeye. Good morning." Feury said as he took his seat and looked through his work.
"Good morning Feury, Falman." She got up and got some coffee for herself and Colonel Mustang. He always needs it when he comes in. Riza was beyond tired and had to do everything she could so that she didn't fall asleep. She sat down and started working and before she knew it she had drifted off to sleep.
"Hey has anyone noticed that Hawkeye fell asleep?" Havoc and Breda had finally got to work when they saw that Riza fell asleep.
"No. I wonder why she is so tired. I think we should just leave her the Colonel can handle her." Feury said since he didn't want to die yet.
Havoc sighed "I guess so besides we have errands to run. Lets get going then." With that they all got up and left the office. A few minutes after they left Mustang finally walked in. 'I wonder where everyone is.' He walked into his and Riza's office and sat down at his desk. He then saw Riza sleeping at her desk.
'I wonder why she's sleeping at the office. Oh well I'll just let her sleep.' Not five minutes later did Riza wake up. She sat upright fast and was sweating. 'It was just a dream.' She looked around and realized that she fell asleep. Riza then looked to her superiors desk and saw that he was indeed there. 'Shit! He's here.' He was looking at her with a worried expression on his face.
"Hawkeye? Are you alright?"
"Yes sir. I'm fine. Sorry I fell asleep at work." She was trying her best to not look at him but it was hard since he kept staring at her.
"I don't think you are. Did you have a bad dream?" He was worried about her since this wasn't like her. Riza Hawkeye just doesn't fall asleep at work! And she defiantly doesn't show emotions like fear.
"I am fine. I have a lot of work to do so if you don't mind I'll get to it." She really wasn't liking this. At least the others weren't here to watch.
"No Hawkeye. You need to talk about it." Roy got up and walked to the door and locked it so that she couldn't escape him.
"Sir please just forget about it."
"If your going to be difficult then I order you to tell me what's bothering you."
"Fine. I haven't been able to sleep without having a nightmare. That is all sir." She wasn't going to tell him the entire truth.
"Well that isn't so bad now is it Hawkeye? I bet it feels a little better that you told someone."
"Yes sir. It does feel a little better." Riza just wanted to get this day over with.
Pretty soon lunch time came around and everyone was getting up to leave. Everyone but Riza.
"Hey lieutenant? Aren't you coming?" Feury had noticed that she didn't get up and the others stopped to wait for her.
"You guys go on ahead I'll check on Hawkeye." Roy said as he walked over to Riza.
"Okay Chief. Well see you later."
"Hawkeye? Are you going to eat lunch?" He received no response so he tapped her on the shoulder.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine sir we have already went through this." She was spacing out when the others were leaving so she was kind of confused.
"You keep saying that Hawkeye. I know your not because you haven't acted like yourself all day."
"Sorry sir. I'm just tired is all."
"Whatever you say Lieutenant. Let's go to lunch." Riza got up and followed Roy to the mess hall. She kept thinking about her nightmares and didn't notice when Roy stopped causing her to walk into him.
"Yes sir?"
"Never mind let's keep going."
They finally reached the mess hall and got their lunch and went to sit by the rest of the team. Everyone was talking about what they were going to do since it was Friday.
"Let's go out for drinks!" Havoc and Breda both said in unison.
"I guess it wouldn't hurt." Feury said. Falman also nodded in agreement.
"What about you chief? You going to join us?"
"No. I have a beautiful blonde date tonight." Roy flashed them his trademark smirk and continued to eat his lunch.
"Wow Colonel. Hawkeye isn't doing anything. Maybe she's sick." Falman said after watching the Lieutenant for a moment.
"No. She's fine. She's just tired. I guess she stayed up all night doing paperwork."
Havoc laughed "You mean YOUR paperwork." Roy just glared at his young nicotine addicted Lieutenant.
"I'm going to get back to work." Riza said as she got up to leave. Roy also got up to leave and they headed to the office together. When they got back to their office Roy shut the doors and told Riza to sit on the couch.
"Sir I need to finish my work."
"Just sit and relax for a little while. You look like your going to pass out."
So she sat there waiting until he said it was okay to get up. Before she knew it she had fallen asleep again. This time Roy was there and he gently laid her down and took her hair clip out. 'She looks so much like an angel with her hair down.' He was staring at her and decided he better get to work before she woke up.
She was running down a dark alleyway with no means of protection. The huge monster was following her quickly and it really wanted to eat her.
'I'll be damned if I let that thing eat me!' She kept running until she reached a dead end.
'Shit what do I do now?' She turned around and saw the thing getting closer and closer to her. It was so close that she could feel its breath. It was coming at her with its mouth open and ready to eat her. She couldn't do anything. She was going to die in an alley all alone. The monster closed the space between them and started to close its mouth on her. She closed her eyes feeling the pain she screamed.
"Hawkeye! Wake up!" Roy was yelling at her because she had screamed in her sleep. She jolted upright and was panting. Riza was covered in sweat and looked terrified.
"Hawkeye? Your okay. It was a dream. Your okay." He did his best to comfort her while she calmed her breathing down.
"Sir?..I'm..sorry." She said through gasps.
"I think it's time you go home and relax."
"Thank you sir. I'll just head home then." She got up and went to get her coat when she realized her hair was down.
"Sir? Did you take my hair clip?"
"Oh yeah. Sorry lieutenant I wanted to help you get comfortable." He handed the clip back to her and she walked out of the office a little quicker than usual.
'Hmm I hope she's okay.' Mustang got up and closed up the office and took one last look before he left.
It was only a twenty minute walk to her apartment from HQ. She opened the door and was greeted by Black Hayate. She went into her bedroom to get ready for bed then went to make some tea.
'I need to calm down. How can I protect the Colonel if I'm so weak?' She finished her tea and went to wash the dishes then headed to bed.
'Please let me get some sleep tonight.' With that she fell into another horrible dream.
It was dark just like the others. She was running and that thing was after her. Only this time she had a gun. She didn't run down the alley, no there was none. The scenery was completely different. She was in Isval and it was when the war was taking place. She ran but found herself at the top of a building shooting innocent people and children.
'What the hell is happening? First that monster now this!' She took aim on the big monster and fired away but nothing worked. It came at her only this time it wasn't alone. The Isvalens were with it. They all had looks of pure hatred and blood covered them. One child held a torn stuffed animal that was also covered in blood. She was trapped. They lifted their guns and…
Riza awoke again only this time a pair of strong arms held her.
"Colonel?" She started crying and couldn't stop. Roy patiently waited and rubbed her back while holding her for comfort. When she finally calmed down enough to talk she said
"Why are you here sir? How did you get in?"
"Well for one you can call me Roy and I have your spare key remember?"
"But why are you here?"
"Well I knew you weren't all right. You haven't been since that homunculus attacked you. I came to comfort you and to get my Riza back to normal." He stated with a genuine smile.
"Roy you didn't have to do that. I'll be fine their just nightmares." She sighed and then realized he was still holding her. She tried to get out of his arms but he wouldn't let go.
"I'm not letting go this time Riza. I'm going to help you. So tell me about these nightmares." After a moment of complete silence Riza spoke up.
"Well there different. In some I'm running down an alley unarmed with that monster chasing me then I hit a dead end and it eats me. In some I fail to protect you and you die while all I can do is watch. The one I just woke up from was different though. I was running again from the monster but we were in Isval. I was killing the people again but then they came at me with that monster and shot me."
After she finished they sat in silence for a moment.
"Well I can tell you one thing I'm alive and you have never failed me. That monster will NEVER touch you again, not if I have anything to do with it. You need to start talking about these things that bother you or they will come back and haunt you. We can never forget what we did in Isval but we will do our best to restore it when I become Furher. I'm here for you Riza I will not let anything happen."
"Thank you Roy. I think that's what I needed to hear." She smiled and snuggled into his chest. He smiled and held her tight. 'Yes nothing will tear us apart my Riza.' They sat like that for awhile when he realized that she had fallen asleep.
'I guess she finally will get the sleep she deserves.' He laid her down and tucked her in. He then leaned down and kissed her cheek. 'Your mine Riza. Never forget that.'
"Stay with me."
"Of course." He smiled again and climbed in beside her where he pulled her close. She turned over and snuggled into his chest again.
"Goodnight Riza."
"Goodnight Roy."
They both drifted off into a peaceful slumber. Little did they know that their group of friends were outside taking pictures. After that night Riza didn't have nightmares because she always knew that Roy would be there to protect her from the shadows.

Shops traditionally start to take delivery of the new autumn/winter 2013 trends now – but they're hedging their bets with more transitional pieces, using lighter materials and layers. They're also increasing the number of 'drops' of new pieces per season. While we often aspire to steal inspiration from the runways, it can be hard/borderline impossible to find trends we can actually wear in our everyday lives. From affordable beanies to figure-flattering slouchy pants, here are 10 runway trends you'll feel comfortable buying and wearing all throughout the seasons.

Hoi An is home to possibly the world's highest concentration of tailors per capita, who will stop at nothing to get you to buy clothing you think you need. Having clothes custom made for you can be highly tempting; I certainly wanted to give it a shot. I met travellers who visited Hoi An specifically to have a new wardrobe outfitted, or to buy formal wear for an entire wedding party. The bespoke tailoring offered is certainly cheaper than many places elsewhere in the world, and this fact alone is not missed by the tailors who, measuring tape in hand, descend on you. If you do want to have some bespoke pieces—a suit, or dress, or a winter coat—made for you,...Read More
Hoi an is a charming little riverside town famed for its beautiful old buildings, its narrow, quiet streets and its history as a merchant trading post. As the citizens of the town grew richer from trading with China, Japan and the rest of Southeast Asia, they spent their money on building attractive houses and pagodas. It is now one of the most popular tourist destinations in Vietnam, and rightfully so. The architecture in the town is beautiful, the atmosphere relaxed and the food fantastic. There is a long beach not far from the town and plenty of shops and Hoi An tailors within the town that encourage travelers to stay for a while. Despite the high numbers of tourists...Read More

Matthew is the new Genesis. We read about the new creation, the new life, and the new Moses (Jesus), the new law giver, and the new law (beatitudes).
Matthew starts of his Gospel with the words, the book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ. The word here "genealogy" is the same word for "genesis". We could translate this as the Genesis of Jesus Christ. Here we find an allusion to the old testament book of Genesis.

Jahlil Okafor recently saw a film about Lenny Cooke along with Chicago center Joakim Noah that was "life changing" and he instagrammed about it afterwards, which is much appreciated.
Okafor quite enjoyed the show and the instagram quote as well as the picture are both below.
Joakim Noah, Lenny Cooke and I last night. Lenny was the number one player in high school at one… http://t.co/a6CvpvzEK8
— Jahlil Okafor (@BigJah22) December 3, 2013
"Joakim Noah, Lenny Cooke and I last night. Lenny was the number one player in high school at one point, rated above Lebron James, Carmelo Anthony and all those guys. His story was life changing, and can't thank him and Joakim enough, learned a lot from the two guys last night. Much love and respect."
Really love Okafor's demeanor and considering going to a couple of his games this season, so be sure to keep an eye out on if and when that happens down the line. Will keep my readers posted on this if there are any updates on which games will be able to catch either live or on TV.
Okafor is a special young player and am really looking forward to watching his developement over the next couple seasons. He will be joining the Duke Blue Devils next season, but he still has a year of high school left so we will have to see if the young man can bring home state.

Salvador Dali, that great, eccentric surrealist artist, film maker, sculptor and photographer, was born May 11, 1904 and passed away January 23, 1989. He was born in Figueres, Spain and his best known work was "Persistence of Memory" which was finished in 1931 and has been in the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art in New York since 1934. He coined the title "critical paranoia" in describing his methodology.
Dali's first exhibit was held at the Municipal Theater in Figueres, Spain in 1919. He became a member of the Surrealists and his paintings exemplified fanciful or absurd images by use of uncharacteristic comparisons and combinations. Somewhat like a dreamscape. Surrealists displayed true fantasy while staying aware in the back of the mind that control of logic and will have been suspended on purpose. Some of the great surrealists were Frida Kahlo, Max Ernst, Marc Chagall, Joan Miro, Marcel Duchamp, and Rene Magritte. Dali was influenced by Joan Miro and admired Pablo Picasso.
In 1934 Dali had an exhibit in New York and was widely received and adored. He was unconventional by anyone's standards for his eccentricities. He showed up at a party thrown for him in a glass case with a bra on under the glass. At the 1936 London International Surrealist Exhibition Dali arrived in a full deep divers suit, helmet and all, brandishing a pool stick and leading two Russian Wolfhounds.
In 1939 he had earned the nickname "Avida Dollars" which is an anagram of his name that meant "eager for dollars" because some felt he had become a commercialist and was seeking notoriety through fame and fortune. The nickname was given to him by other surrealists in his crowd and he was booted from the group. He retaliated by saying he was surrealism exemplified. In 1942 Dali published his autobiography, "The Secret Life of Salvador Dali." Andy Warhol was one of the great artists influenced by the works of Salvador Dali.
Dali married Gala, his muse, and had a somewhat unconventional marriage. They met in 1929 and married in 1934. Dali supposedly had a fear of female genitalia and was a virgin when they met. Gala was highly sexual and Dali encouraged her extramarital affairs as well as having exhibitions of her nakedness amongst friends. They remained married through out their entire lives, even though Gala suffered from near-senile tendencies later in life. She had fed Dali a cocktail of non-prescribed medicines causing nerve damage which ended his art career. In 1982 Gala died and Dali lost all will to live. It was thought that he may have attempted suicide, once by dehydration and the other by fire. His close friends took over his care and he died of heart failure in Spain in 1989.

On this day (Jan. 7) at this time (9pm) last year (2007) we were hopping on a plane in Minneapolis and heading to Amsterdam on our way to Almaty, Kazakhstan.
As I was giving Emily a bath tonight I was reflecting on our past year. I can't believe how much she's grown in this past year and how well she's progressed. She was off to a shaky start when we met her but we fell in love immediately and she's come so far.
Some fun facts to lighten your reading...
1) Emily still emphatically believes that cats say "Baa!".
2) She loves to play "flutter" with her daddy... (which means putting her hand over his eye while he flutters his eyelashes on her hand).
3) She LOVES watching Elmo sing and dance and frequently joins in on the dancing and clapping.
4) Emily loves to rock in her big girl rocking chairs.
5) Emily still makes me smile every day even when she's teething up a storm.
6) There are days when I go to work with a sticky kiss on my cheek after saying goodbye to Em and it stays there until it dries up.
7) Emily is immediately drawn to anyone that vaguely resembles her RyRy.
Enough happy thoughts for now, Em's already in dreamland and now that I've given you a photo for today's entry, I'm on my way to join her there! Good night!

When you're preparing to sell your home, of course you take in
to account the typical costs – repairs, remodeling if your home is badly outdated, the agent's commission, possibly sharing responsibility for closing costs, and on and on. But have you considered what it's costing you simply to stay in your home for the duration of the 6-12 months that it can take for your home to sell?
In an average market, a home listed by an agent may take 6 months or more to sell. Homes for sale by owner usually take even longer – up to a year or more. During this time you'll be stuck with what are called carrying costs – the expenses associated with living in your own house. These include the mortgage and insurance, plus maintenance and any repairs that come up during that time. Depending upon the amount of your mortgage payment, carrying costs could run you better than $10,000.
Homes for sale by owner don't fare much better – while you won't have to pay the commission, you could be out even more money than those selling with an agent due to the longer period of time it takes to sell.
When you're deciding between selling your home yourself, with an agent, or to a real estate investor, take these costs into consideration. They could just be adding hassle to your life without much appreciable reward. An investor can close your sale within days, put cash in your pocket, and eliminate carrying costs.

Happy weekend everyone! I come to you with a guest post about one of our favorite things to do in life – travel. But not just travel…travel on the cheap!
For example, my wife and I flew up to Glacier National Park last year for $11.20 each by using credit card points and bonus offers. We stayed 100% within our budget to accumulate those points.
In this article, I talk about how to get the most value out of your traveling adventures, including how to maximize your credit cards. Also, the timing of travel is much more important than many realize, and taking your trip during the off-season can save you a ton of cash. Also, did you know that airlines sometimes make mistakes with their fares? If you're in the right place at the right time, you might be able to snag yourself an insanely low fare due to a mistake from the airline!
