With dozens of eyes fixed on my back, I slowly crept to the end of the dock and wiggled my toes over the edge. I could feel my heart beat in my chest and butterflies take over my stomach. I was 10 years old and I had been dreading this moment ever since I arrived at camp: the swim test.
I was never a very strong swimmer, but with the squeal of the lifeguard's whistle, all my swimming fears came to a harsh reality. Halfway through the test, my legs and arms felt like Jell-O, and I soon found myself struggling to stay above water.
Dozens of campers and counselors watched as I hopelessly tread water in a panic. I shouted out to the dock, beckoning the lifeguard for help. I could see and hear my older sister pleading with him to go get me. After what seemed like an eternity, the lifeguard finally dove into the murky lake waters, effortlessly swam over with a life float and pushed me back to shore.
As I lay on the dock trying to catch my breath, I realized that I was just like my mother … terrified of the water. I was humiliated. My eyes swelled with tears as I realized that friends and strangers had just watched one of the most terrifying and embarrassing moments of my life.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 10 people die every day from unintentional drowning. Of these 10 deaths, two will be children under the age of 14. While drowning is the fifth leading cause of unintentional death in the United States, non-fatal submersion injuries are also a predominant issue. More than 50% of non-fatal drowning patients treated in emergency departments require hospitalization, and consequences of a near-drowning experience can be as severe as permanent loss of basic functioning.
At highest risk for drowning are males, who make up 80% of drowning deaths. Minorities also suffer a significantly higher rate of drowning. According to the CDC, "The fatal drowning rate of African-American children ages five to 14 is almost three times that of white children in the same age range." This could be attributed to limited access to swimming pools, lack of interest in learning how to swim and lower rates of choosing water-related sports as a recreational activity.
Research shows that formal swimming lessons reduce the risk of drowning for kids ages one to four. However, older generations report having less swimmi
ng ability than younger adults. Ability to swim also decreases with lower levels of education. Some other factors that influence drowning risk are a lack of barriers to bodies of water, lack of supervision, failure to wear a life jacket, alcohol use, and seizure disorders.
Unlike many animals, humans aren't born knowing how to swim. It is something we must be taught. However, we shouldn't go through life without knowing how because of a fear of water or fear of failure. Swimming is a skill that is vital for our own safety and the safety of others. Therefore, children and adults of all ages should make it a point to learn.
You don't have to go far to begin. There are many places where you can learn how to swim for beginners of all ages! The Athens YMCA has two pools, one indoor and one outdoor. Swimming lessons are divided up according to age. According to Ben Schultz, the aquatic director of the Athens YMCA, pediatricians recommend that you introduce infants to water under close supervision as early as six months of age.
"Six months to three years is a great time to get children accustomed to the water as well as parents comfortable in the water with their children," said Schultz. This age group takes classes with the help of their parents. The goal is to teach the infant basic movement in water as well as control over their breathing. The course also seeks to make the child comfortable in water.
The next age group, ages three to five, learns fundamental swimming skills as well as boating safety and rescue skills. Youth swimming lessons for ages six to 12 build on top of the basic skills already acquired. Students are taught the different strokes and diving fundamentals while also developing an appreciation for swimming as a lifelong sport.
Adults are sometimes embarrassed if they never learned how to swim as a child. Some have avoided water at all costs after a dramatic experience that made them fear bodies of water. However, the Athens YMCA offers swim lessons to adults age 13 and older that cater specifically to this group.
According to Schultz, adults tend to be more apprehensive about taking swimming lessons. "An adult may have spent their entire life not knowing how to swim or even feeling comfortable in the water. They carry these fears with them into the pool. As adults, we tend to over-rationalize our fears. Children typically have not spent much time building fears. They are often very excited to jump right in," says Schultz.
Schultz emphasizes the importance of learning how to swim, even as an adult. If you're nervous around water, he recommends taking a deep breath and relaxing. He believes it is important for an adult beginner to feel comfortable at the pace in which they learn how to swim. "Learning to swim is very important; adult lessons can be at whatever pace the adult would like," says Schultz. Getting started is easy! All you need to learn how to swim are goggles, a towel and swimsuit.
The importance of learning how to swim is undeniable, and whether you are looking for swimming lessons for the kids of for yourself, Athens has all the right facilities and instructors to cater to your needs. In addition to the YMCA, swimming skills can be acquired at the Athens YWCO. For more information on both locations, visit their websites at www.YWCO.org and www.AthensYMCA.org.

Okay any who have been following me for a while know that I make muffins at least three times a week. Sometimes I run out of fresh fruit to toss in so I have to adapt.
You will need the basic muffin recipe:
1 c sugar
1 1/2 c flour
2 t baking powder
1 t salt
1 egg
1 c milk
1/4 cup oil
And now the difference. Yesterday I put up the recipe of the Banana jam I made. I hadn't realized we were out of muffins till after I made the jam so I decided what the heck toss in some of the jam.
2 T banana jam
Mix it all together and bake for 30 minutes in a 350 oven. Let cook and taste. Not knock you out banana flavor but quite nice. Just another use for all the jam you have hopefully been trying!

"I thank God for unanswered prayers." Perhaps you've heard the country song, perhaps you believe that statement from experience. I just wanted to share with you one reason why I am thankful for a prayer that was answered—just not in the way I wanted.
Several months ago I was given the opportunity to fly out to Liverpool to attend a friend's wedding. Her parents were going out there, so they could accompany me on my first flight, and I would be able to stay with my friend's new in-laws to get an immersion experience of real British culture. It sounded like the perfect opportunity; things were fitting together like the pieces of a puzzle! My family was enthusiastic, friends were congratulating me…it looked like my long-time dream would finally come true.
And then I started taking other things into account.
· There would be a wedding going on, so there probably wouldn't be anyone willing to gallivant around the country with me, so I would be confined to Liverpool.
· The airfare would take a huge chunk out of my "Britain Fund", which could not be quickly replaced and so a big trip to England would have to wait for that.
· Perhaps there would be awkward dynamics of being a shy person in with a lot of wedding guests and people I didn't know.
So I asked for advice, weighed the options, and then set aside an evening for heavy prayer. I'd never done something like this before: sitting down to pray with the intention of not getting up until I'd gotten an answer to the question, "Go to the wedding, or wait?"
To tell the truth, I had an agenda. The more I prayed the more I realized how much I wanted to go, and now! The thought of actually getting on a plane bound for England was so big and so wonderful that I cried. But then I had this thought (I wouldn't really call it a vision) of Jesus sitting beside me, and we were laughing together, and all of a sudden He said, "Abby, do you trust me?" Of course I said, "Yes!" He replied, "Then don't go."
That was crushing, but it was such a fleeting thought that it was fairly easy to convince myself it was my imagination making something up, desperate for an answer after hours of praying. I decided that I would go to the wedding, at least that would be the plan until I learned more.
Then I learned more! After about a month of thinking, asking, and listening, I realized that things wouldn't be as cut and dried as I'd thought at first. To make a long story short, I kept considering, questioning, and double-guessing, until I actually felt surety and peace in declining the invitation.
Months later, after the wedding has come and gone, I am so thankful that I didn't go after all. My friend's parents only got to stay there for about a week, they remained in Liverpool practically the entire time, and most of that time was spent in wedding preparations, not sightseeing. I probably would have had fun, and I would have loved to see the wedding, but the truth is that it would not have been the dream trip I've been waiting and wishing for.
So I do thank God for "unanswered prayers". He didn't write Don't Go! in big letters on the wall; He even let me deceive my desperate little self into planning to go despite my qualms. But in the end I'm sure it was all for the best, and that's a very comforting thought.

From Lena Groeger at Digg
Discriminatory design and decision-making affects all aspects of our lives: from the quality of our health care and education to where we live to what scientific questions we choose to ask. It would be impossible to cover them all, so we'll focus on the more tangible and visual design that humans interact with every day.
Groeger offers a number of legitimate problems, but then:
Industrial design plays a role as well, by steering human activities. For example, benches designed with prominent arm rests or shallow seats discourage homeless people from sleeping on them. This phenomenon is known as "hostile architecture" or more broadly, "unpleasant design."
As one critic points out, it says a lot about a culture when its solution to homelessness is to put spikes on public surfaces. Not to mention the practice of setting sprinklers to go off in the middle of the night to douse unsuspecting sleepers in cold water, which one San Francisco church did. Maybe the better solution to the "design problem" of homelessness lies more in designing better policies and services than in making it harder for the homeless to find a place to sleep. More.
Reality check: Anyone familiar with the homeless knows that it is a no-win situation. If they are locked up in institutions, that is a violation of their personal liberties. If they are offered shelter, some become homeless because they abuse others in the shelter. These people may present a danger to passers-by if they sleep on park benches.
A common short circuit in progressive thinking is the tacit assumption that problems like homelessness can somehow be "solved," consistent with a free society. They can only be managed, and sometimes there are saw-offs. One can only hope it's not the worst of both worlds.
The world would certainly be worse without public facilities design or with design, one of whose primary goals was to make it easier to live on the street.
See also: Sensitivity training to cope with student traumas You know the sort of thing: The horror when the little asshat discovers that he must learn from a prof who has no use for his conflicted barrel of inner merde. (Fortunately, he can always get a job writing screeds about "discrimination" for some level of government.)

Answer to: Why is my laptop overheating?One thing that works great is if you get a little fan thing that attaches to the bottom of your laptop, they can be found at best buy or any other computer store.
Answer to: Loud banging during spin cycleWell Phil, my washer had the same problem, what worked for me was to just push up or over on the barrel. Then do your wash, after that load is done push up or over on the barrel again. Repeat this process every time you do your wash for at least 2 weeks. If that doesn't solve the problem, stop the washer will it is spinning, push up on it, or over on it. If none of these work, I am sorry I couldn't help you.

WOW RESULTS after just EIGHT to TWELVE weeks!
Nicole A.
Sumer S.
Linda D.
MaKenzie D.
"I have noticed significant changes in my body. I have more energy, my waist is smaller, and my confidence level increased dramatically. Also, I could say my clothes fit better, but I actually had to go out and buy a whole knew wardrobe, because nothing fit! BONUS!
The best feature about WOW is the support group. Ok, so I can't pick just one… Laura being there and answering so promptly to any questions I had. Knowing how busy she is, she never made me feel like I was bothering her. I also love the workouts and the recipes! All together it was a lifestyle change, it changes the way you cook and the way you think about what you are putting in your body.
I highly recommend WOW to family and friends. The testimonials speak for the program itself. If you put in the work, you will see results."
Clarissa C.
It's a blast!
Lauren W
I loved the videos! I used them everyday in the gym. If you stick to the plan it will work. Schedule your workout into your day just like you would anything else.
Chelsea C
At the end of this program, I was 100% happy with my results. I had never felt better, or so accomplished. I had done something for myself to better myself and it was a great feeling!
K Leigh
I'm so happy!
Annette S
My biggest challenge before WOW was not making the time to take care of myself. I've learned that it's okay to take care of myself and make time for me because I am just as important as everyone else is in my life. Now I make the time to eat well and stay fit. I feel great because of my choice and commitment to me! One struggle I dealt with was being a slave to the scale. I was on it everyday! I let it determine if it was a good day for me or a bad day. I no longer give my power to a battery operated metal device. Whenever I find myself being negative or not painting others in the best light – I tell myself to stop that, it's not very WOW- ful to do so. 🙂
Julie T
I loved everything about the challenge. I loved the accountability, the conference calls, the WOW classes, the menu and definitely the grocery list. What I didn't love was that is wasn't longer! I wish it would have been 3 months. I would encourage anyone to do this challenge especially moms who have a busy home/work life. It really takes the pressure off for meals and grocery shopping.
Rachelle H
Inspiring, Rewarding, Fun!
Claudia T
My biggest workout challenge before training with Laura was properly combining exercises. After working with her for a month, I saw results right away. For nutrition, I was always following fad diets and I thought I shouldn't eat carbs. But Laura taught me the right way to incorporate carbs into my diet and that I could eat every three hours. And it worked! I was satisfied with my food AND with my body.
Valerie C
Thanks for all your help & support, I feel amazing!!
Cubby J
It's a HIIT!

Maybe my memory is tricking me, but I seem to remember a long battle laced with filibusters to get the health-care bill passed in Congress. I remember that even the Democrats dared not mention "single payer health care" (also referred to as "Medicare for all"). I remember more liberal Democrats unsuccessfully trying to include something called "the public option" in the final bill. I thought at the time that they were all scared to mention the control the insurance companies seemed to have over the whole process.
Then there was a supposed victory for Obamacare at the Supreme Court, with only one small problem: Individual states with nutty governors, like ours, could opt out of the plan.
I think that the final bill was a compromise between timid Democrats, obstructionist Republicans and the insurance companies (the silent partners to them all).These are the same insurance companies that have been making life miserable for so many people, for so many years, in so many ways. People were now going to be required to purchase insurance from them.
Of course it's complicated. Of course it's unwieldy. Of course it's hard to figure out. Of course it's a mess, but it's dishonest to lay the blame for this solely on Barack Obama. The three branches of our government all failed us.
Now compare it to Medicare. Are you hearing anything about people having trouble signing up for Medicare or Social Security? What we needed was a government that wasn't kowtowing to the insurance companies. What we needed was a simple government-run program that gave medical coverage to everybody. We needed "Medicare for all."

The NLRB's Social Media Guidelines a Lose-Lose: Why the NLRB's Stance on Social Media Fails to Fully Address Employer's Concerns and Dilutes Employee Protections
[Excerpt] The expanding use of both personal and professional social media sites has resulted in its growing impact in the workplace. Recently, many examples have emerged where an individual's use of social media for communicating frustrations or sharing personal information resulted in significant conflict between the individual and their employer. Employment actions arising from an employee's social media use have become so contentious that a number of employers have been charged with unfair labor practices for overly broad social media policies or implementation of unfair policies. Following several important Board decisions the NLRB issued guidelines, identifying acceptable employer-initiated social media policies. As social media's popularity will likely only continue to grow, it is important to understand how employer policies impact employees' social media use and the potential invasion these policies may have on employees' rights.
This article concludes that the NLRB's issued guidance fails to adequately address social media concerns raised by employers and dilutes employees' rights to communicate workplace concerns. This is because even though the guidance permits employer developed social media policies, the NLRB's stance permits employers to monitor and analyze employees' social media use and does not clarify when an employer can act on social media information.

A familiar story: small town girl becomes infatuated with traveling. Moves to big city (Washington, DC) to take job that allows her to travel the country. Sells car to fund trip to Paris. Keeps saving money for a new couch but instead continually uses it to, yes, you guessed it, travel.
I am a US Sailing certified sailor (basic keelboat – I am certified to take out a 27' daysailing sloop-rigged keelboat, but that doesn't mean I will yet… still getting hours under my belt, usually zipping around on a Hobie Cat or Sunfish). Lover of all things on and about the water. Passionate about sea turtles. Very lucky to have a family timeshare to beautiful St. John, USVI (every week 10, just when we're getting weary of the March cold in Northeast US).

Kalen Sand, Braavosi, and Haskell Ullvetten continued on into the southern fringes of the Reach, and at the mouth of the Prince's Pass can clearly see where a vast number of riders on horseback have passed recently. Anxious to make up some lost ground on what they assume to be their quarry, they ride hard to follow the tracks east-northeast, skirting the northern edge of the Dornish Marches. A day's ride in, they still see plenty of clear sign of the passage of mountain clansmen from the Vale, with the occasional discarded item bearing marks that identify the clans as Milk Snakes and Moon Brothers. Haskell can confirm that these clans do not generally work together for any reason, and neither is known to raid outside the Vale at all in his experience.
Late in the second day of their travels in the Reach, the group can see a contingent of hoofprints moving apart from the main group to the north. Haskell and Kalen follow this smaller trail, whilst Braavosi continues to trail the larger group. In short order, Kalen and Haskell find themselves in a small nameless village that appears to be devoid of life. They search the village to find virtually all supplies and provisions have been stripped from the houses and the bodies of what they assume to be the entire village population piled up in the millhouse. Kalen burns the mill with the corpses inside, dedicating the nightfire to R'hllor. The pair of adventurers makes camp for the night within one of the small homes in the village. During the middle of the night, they are set upon by three clansmen, who the overcome and question. The survivor can confirm that they were the ones who ambushed the Dornish strike force and that Attagga of the Milk Snakes commands, with Hurras of the Moon Brothers as his second. Kalen executes the last clansmen and consigns their bodies to the flame along with the villagers.
Early the following morning, Kalen and Haskell set out to rejoin the greater trail, and travel hard until they see a massive sign of humanity ahead of them, at which point they take to the foothills of the Dornish Marches in the hopes of getting a better vantage from high ground without approaching too closely. They can see that the clansmen's trail has narrowed considerably, skirting the edge of the foothills as they travel further east and north, and they can see why. An army numbering in the thousands is encamped between the Blue Byrn river and the Greatwood, and it is flying the seven-pointed star of the Faith of the Seven, marking them as Andal invaders. The clansmen have clearly sought to avoid them by directing their path into the Greatwood, and Kalen and Haskell, not seeing nor as far as they can tell being seen by Braavosi, follow the trail into the forest primeval.

Update: Tanks in the streets as Venezuelan electoral council declares Hugo Chavez victory
8:10 PM 10/07/2012 Matthew Boyle
Update 10:50 p.m.: According to the Associated Press, Venezuela's electoral council has declared that Hugo Chavez beat Henriques Capriles in Sunday's presidential election with about 54 percent of the vote, despite exit polls showing otherwise.
Venezuela Twitter users have claimed Chavez's victory was wrought with election fraud, and that the socialist incumbent president sent tanks into the streets of his country as those exit poll reports showed him losing. A picture of the tanks surfaced on Twitter Sunday evening.
The British Guardian newspaper reported that Chavez also sent troops armed with AK-47s into Venezuela's streets to fight against any protests in case unrest came as a result of the news.
A Spanish news outlet reported earlier on Sunday that exit polls showed Capriles defeated the socialist president by a narrow margin.
According to an English language translation of the local report, based on Google Translate, Chavez is headed for defeat:
The candidate of the Democratic Unity Table (MUD), Henrique Capriles, is leading against Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez in the presidential elections held on Sunday … according to exit polls by consultancy Variance prior to the closing of polling stations. The time set for the closing was 12:30 a.m. Spanish time, however, and because of the long lines in some of them, polls have remained open without a definite closure time.
Despite the fact that Venezuelan law expressly prohibits the publication of polls, the Spanish outlet was free to conduct its polls. Its exit surveys indicate that Capriles won 51.3 percent of the vote, compared to Chavez's 48.06 percent.
Variance director Rafael Delgado explained to Caracol Radio that the exit poll surveys were conducted in the Capital District and in the states of Zulia, Lara, Aragua, Miranda, Carabobo and Anzoategui.
If this data is confirmed in the final vote tally, Delgado said, it would end Chavez's thirteen year reign as Venezuela's leader and usher in a new political reality for the country and region.
Official results haven't yet been announced.

Pens still marveling at parade experienceby Michelle Crechiolo @PensInsideScoop / Penguins Team Reporter
A day after their championship parade through downtown Pittsburgh, the Pens players were still marveling at the turnout from the city.
An estimated 650,000 people - which is more than double the population of the city - took to the streets to cheer on the Pens as they traveled along the parade route to Point State Park. It was an atmosphere that most players called 'unbelievable,' and rookie forward Jake Guentzel said it will always be his most cherished memory.
"Yesterday was insane," he said. "650,000, I heard? That's incredible. We have the best fans here."
While the players loved the crowd support, the fans loved seeing three of the quietest guys on the team show a different side of their personalities, as no one had more fun than Guentzel, Olli Maatta and Justin Schultz.
Guentzel, 22, shared a truck with Conor Sheary and kept jumping out to run up and down the streets high-fiving fans, signing autographs and taking selfies - chugging beers the entire time. At one point, Sheary joined him to take a picture with a hilarious 'Sid and the Kids' sign.
"There were a couple funny signs. The Sid and the Kids one with the babies was pretty funny," Guentzel laughed. "That's probably the best one."
Meanwhile, Maatta, 22, and Schultz, 26, shared a truck and also downed a bunch of beers that they received from fans. Their teammates were torn about which one of the pair deserved the Conn Smythe Trophy as parade MVP.
"No. 3," Matt Murray laughed. "I bet you every guy would probably say that. He was MVP of the parade for sure. 'Schultzy,' actually. Schultzy was good out there too."
"Probably Schultzy," Sidney Crosby grinned. "Guys had fun. Everyone made it so great and the turnout was incredible. To kind of finish it off at the stage there, it was a great setting."
Maatta and Schultz were a hit on social media, with a picture of Schultz chugging a beer on the road making the rounds. He said he didn't know of its existence until later that night.
"My buddies were texting me and I was seeing all the pictures I was Photoshopped in chugging the beer," Schultz laughed. "It's pretty funny. I don't know, I was having a good time and I'd do it again."
His fellow defenseman Brian Dumoulin couldn't be happier that Schultz was enjoying himself.
"I just love the guy to death," Dumoulin said. "He's one of my best friends on the team. He's a great guy. I'll look at all the pictures of him."
Meanwhile, a photo of Maatta napping on his balcony got the meme treatment. He let everyone know today that he didn't get sunburned and he didn't get caught in the rain - "I heard the thunder and had to get up," he said.
Those photos were the only ones Crosby has seen, and he said the rest of the team received them as well.
"I saw two pictures, actually. I saw one of Schultzy, it was a pretty good one, and then I saw Olli taking a nap. That was the only two I've seen. They were on a group text. I haven't seen a ton."
What's so special about the parade is the ability to share their win with everybody. On Sunday, Monday and Tuesday they celebrated with just their family and friends. On Wednesday, they got to celebrate with the whole city.
"Just seeing how many people and the support group we have, the fans, it's unbelievable," Maatta said. "I think when you see how many of them show up, and just how excited they are about it, you see how big of a thing it is. It kind of makes you humble."
While those guys had the time of their lives, franchise goalie Marc-Andre Fleury experienced the perfect sendoff to what is likely the end of his time in Pittsburgh. There were so many No. 29 jerseys and signs in the crowd with sentiments like "We Love You Fleury! Thank You!" and "Merci, Marc-Andre!"
"That was pretty crazy," Fleury said. "So many signs, so many people. It was crazy. I think people chanted my name the whole way, so that was really emotional, but it was a good time."
He said he tried not to reflect a lot on his 12-plus years in this city as the truck he shared with his wife Veronique and oldest daughter Estelle traveled the route.
"I tried not to too much, because as you can see, I'm struggling with this," a choked-up Fleury admitted. "But I just tried to enjoy the moment, tried to remember the good times and this last parade."

LODHRAN: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan addressed a rally in Lodhran as part of electioneering for upcoming by-elections in NA-154 despite warning by the Election Commission of Pakistan here Friday.
The electoral body had prohibited Imran Khan from addressing a public meeting ahead of by-election in in NA-154 in Lodhran.
The ECP had stopped Khan to address a public meeting as part of the partyâs electioneering for the upcoming by-polls and had sent a notification to party candidate Ali Tareen, son of ousted MNA Jahangir Khan Tarin.
The PTI is set to flex its political muscle in Lodhran in connection with the by-election of NA-154 slated for February 12.
PTI Chief said no one can compete with Nawaz Sharif in his corruption tactics, adding that we can't match Jahangir Khan Tareen with Sharifs in any capacity.
Imran Khan alleged that police had killed 870 during the tenure of Shahbaz Sharif, adding that former cop Amir âboxerâ had, in a statement, confessed to killing on the orders of Shahbaz Sharif.
Imran demanded of the Chief Justice of Pakistan to form a judicial commission over extrajudicial killings.

Toms Feast - local, seasonal, organicTweet
Inspirational food hero and ethical chef Tom Hunt of Tom's Feast joined Green Union recently and we are excited to let you in on the secret...
Tom is so passionate about his food and the wedding catering service they provide, that we thought it would be best to let him tell you about it in his own words:
"I sincerely enjoy every minute of a wedding. First the planning, with animated and creative discussions about the banquets we can create, then working together to find a location, and finally the big day itself. Delivering fresh ethical food at such a merry celebration is massively rewarding.
There's nothing we like better than cooking huge communal feasts, of celebration, with abundant vibrant dishes that are great shared between loved ones. We like to bring an alfresco french wedding feel to the food, keeping it rustic and packed with flavour.
I really love cooking outside and if possible with fire! I have a beautiful wood oven and chargrill that we bring along to all our do's. It allows us to make really special dishes like authentic porchetta, wood roasted sea bass with fennel and stone baked breads.
Our green wedding credentials: We care about the environmental impact of our work. We pride ourselves on sourcing our food ethically - all our ingredients are seasonal without question and we prioritise buying local, organic ingredients from sources we trust.
"Åhow do you feed 270 people michelin-starred food in the middle of the wilderness? you call Tom and his team"Â - James Whewell, Organiser Wilderness festival.
For more information check out Tom's website and blog.
Oh, and Tom's Feast was featured last year in one of our Natural Nuptials blog posts.

Greetings from Boston, Massachusetts!
Early in my recovery, I found myself trapped by either living in the pain of my past—or in the fear of the future. Living in the present allows us to Go! Smell the Flowers! as well as to simply enjoy the great pleasure of being alive.
I have found that if our hearts remain open, we often meet people along our journey who help to teach us the lessons we need. I have learned some major lessons in life from some unexpected sources!
One lesson happened early in my recovery from heroin addiction, when I was about six months clean. I had just returned to Bozeman, Montana, where I had begun attending classes at the University. To support myself, I found a job driving a taxi, which I had experience doing earlier in my life when I was a cabbie in New York City…..
One of the contracts the taxi company had was with a non-profit organization called REACH, whose mission is to help support adults with developmental disabilities, in hope that they might 'reach' their potential and aspirations. I would pick the clients up from their group homes and take them to their jobs (if their disabilities allowed them to be able to hold one) or to drive them back and forth from the center itself, where those who could not work engaged in activities and therapy.
The REACH taxi was not so much a taxi per se, but a large van, capable of holding up to ten clients at a time.
Onc day, I picked up a group of REACH clients to take them to the center for the day. As I arrived, I realized there was a terrible fight occurring amongst two of the clients. I calmed them down enough to get them into the van but as soon as we took off, the bickering continued. Each time I would say something, it would stop but as soon as a moment passed, it would start up again. Finally, I pulled over and told them I was not going to be able to drive unless they stopped since it was so distracting to me and their safety was involved. It continued, though, albeit on a lower decimal level. We finally made it to the center and I saw them off the van, noticing the bickering was still continuing. Since we were assigned to work for the REACH clients an entire day at a time, I knew I would also be picking up the same clients up that evening, driving them back to the group home—and to be honest, I was dreading picking them up all day. I dislike arguing or fighting of any kind and hate being brought into the middle of it.
However, an interesting phenomenon occurred when I went to pick the clients up that evening—and I noticed it right away! The same two clients who had been at each other's throats (almost literally!) were now holding hands, beaming at each other as they climbed into the van to return home. I was dumbfounded! What had happened? Throughout the drive back to the group home, I kept glancing in the rearview mirror, warily waiting to see if a fight might break out. Nothing did. They skipped out of the van and into the group home.
I sat outside the group home for a while after that, thinking about what had happened. I realized that these people had taught me an important lesson about being able to live in the present. The fight that morning was long gone. Over. They had moved on and were enjoying each other for the present. Sure, the fight had been intense, during the present of the morning—but after it had passed, it was truly gone and there was no need to dwell on the bitter feelings of what had occurred previously.
As I sat there, it dawned on me what an important lesson these folks had taught me. Not only did these clients not live in the past, I also realized I had never heard any of them worry about what might happen to them the next day, next week, or next year. They simply lived for every moment and seemed so content to do that.
I still can get sucked into the pain of my past—and occasionally, I find myself gripped in an icy fear of what the future might hold—but mostly, I learned from this amazing group how wonderful it is to really live in the present.
Where do you live? Do you live in the pain of the past? Fear of the future? Alternatively, do you live in the moment?

Well, things have been at a stand still since my last entry. I don't know when, what, where, why, and how right now. I don't have a plan for the first time in my life. It's baby steps. I think I am going to take a hiatius for right now. It's a really good thing...so if your thinking what wrong? The answer is nothing is wrong. I am great and just changing things up. I promise you'll see me around.
Remember I will always Love You,

PA to kids: Remain Refugees

PA to kids: Remain Refugees
By Itamar Marcus
To mark the Palestinian "
Day" - the "catastrophe" of the creation of Israel 70 years ago - PA TV and PA TV Live have been broadcasting special fillers between programs and have also created a new logo for all their broadcasts.
One striking message to children is that they should remain refugees. In the words of one filler:
"From generation to generation, there is no alternative to the return and Jerusalem"
[Official PA TV, numerous times daily since May 10, 2018]
Click to view video
The PA TV filler shows an old man passing a key to a child. The message to the Palestinian children who are classified by the PA as refugees is clear: Although you live within the Palestinian Authority areas you should not be satisfied with your current residence and must see yourself forever as waiting to "return" - i.e., as a refugee. Instead of telling children to be build a life in the PA areas and to embrace a future there, the PA tells them to see themselves "from generation to generation" - never satisfied, always seeking to "return," meaning to live somewhere in Israel,
which, according to the PA internal messaging, would then be called "Palestine."
PA TV's filler also states that: "Our return is certain" - again reinforcing the message to children that they should not create a life for themselves in the PA areas but remain longing for a life within the land that is now Israel:
"Our return is certain, and Jerusalem is the eternal capital of our state"
[Official PA TV, numerous times daily since May 10, 2018]
A newly released very significant
Palestinian Media Watch
video is a compilation of personal stories of refugees whose testimonies show that the Arab flight during Israel's War of Independence in 1948 was not an Israeli "expulsion," as the PA claims, but was the
result of a strategic decision by the Arab leaders and Arab armies
who demanded that the Arabs leave.
Fatah reinforced this message of a "return" to "Palestine" on Facebook with this photo and text:
Text in Hebrew and Arabic:
"The destination is Palestine"
Text in Hebrew at bottom left:
[Official Fatah Facebook page, May 13, 2018]
The new
logo used by PA TV and PA TV Live is in the shape of the PA's map of "Palestine" that presents all of Israel together with the PA areas as "Palestine." Two crossed keys representing the return of Palestinian refugees appear behind the map, and text on the map alternates between "70,"
(top picture)
representing 70 years since the
, and "The return - a right" (second picture below). [Official PA TV and PA TV Live, since May 9, 2018]
Palestinians commemorate
Nakba Day
on May 15, the day after the establishment of Israel. On May 15, 1948, combined forces from Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq joined local Arab forces in an attempt to eradicate the newly established State of Israel. The Nakba (Arabic = catastrophe) refers to the establishment of Israel, and the subsequent defeat in the war, including the killing and displacement of Arab civilians that occurred during the war.

The first word, ahab, seemed more like our English word love and was applicable in a lot of the same situations in which we use the word. Parents and children, spouses, and lovers all ahab each other in scripture, and, in the Law, God commands his children to ahab not only their neighbors as themselves (Leviticus 19:18) but also strangers: "The foreigners residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt (Leviticus 19:34). In the most important passage of the Law to the Jews, a passage that they traditionally commemorated on doorways and gates and bound to their wrists and foreheads, Moses exhorted them to ahab God as well: "Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength (Deuteronomy 6:4).
The other Hebrew word for love, hesed, was more puzzling. A key word of interest to Jewish theologians over the centuries—the root of a word used in Psalms for the especially devout and of the name of a group of especially pious Jews, the Hasidim—hesed is used almost exclusively in passages describing not our love but God's. Within the translation of scripture I read in those days (the NIV), hesed was translated into many quite different English words: not only love but mercy, kindness, loyalty, faith, devotion, approval, favor, glory, and grace as well as subcategories of these like loving-kindness, unfailing love, and acts of devotion. Other Bible versions, I discovered, were just as varied in their translation of the word hesed.
Jesus himself refers to the word hesed when he quotes Hosea 6:6, a rare biblical instance when the word is used for humans. "[G]o and learn what this means," He tells his audience of hecklers and disciples alike: "'I desire mercy'—hesed—'not sacrifice.'" (Matthew 9:13).
In recasting the Hebrew of Hosea 6:6 into New Testament Greek, Matthew uses, possibly echoing the Aramaic word Jesus actually used in speaking, not one of several Greek words for love but eleos, which means mercy. Having studied and puzzled over for years Hosea's and Matthew's choices of words for what God was saying, here's what I think God means.
Yes, I have given you lots of rules to follow, God was telling the famously obedient prophet Hosea and tells us to this day. I have demanded sacrifices to atone for every disobedience imaginable and even for behaviors I never specifically told you were forbidden. But what I really want from you is not merely that you obey my rules but that you love me. And not in the feeble way you love one another. Not ahab. I want you to love me the way I love you. Hesed.
~excerpted from my current writing project, tentatively titled Easy Burdens: Doing the Stress-Free, Guilt-Free Work of God
2 comments:
Very interesting. I love the idea of posting your word studies. And these words in particular. You are right that hesed is a tricky word given that we don't have a good english equivalent. Even though it is a Hebrew word I think looking at the verse where Jesus' references the passage in Micah gives us insight into the meaning of the word. The section of scripture shows Jesus eating with tax collectors and other "sinners." Throughout my years in the church many times I have heard this passage used as a lesson to show how Jesus came to save all those sinners. The use of hesed/eleos makes me believe that this interpretation is incorrect or a least incomplete. The dialog in that passage between Jesus and the Pharisees shows the dichotomy between the "righteous" and the "unrighteous," the pharisee and the sinner, those who followed the law and those who did not. In this case hesed or eleos is opposed to sacrifice. I think by Jesus referencing this scripture he is, again, turning the law on it's head. A desire to follow God is preferred to flawlessly performing the law of God. In order to show hesed one must understand the meaning behind the law and experience love to live it out. This is a reciprocal relationship between the one who created the convent or law and the person practicing it. A sacrifice is just following a prescriptive path to appease God and maintain social standing.
I think Jesus was saying that those that need the doctor are the pharisees. The righteous of the time provided sacrifice but not hesed. They missed the point and sadly, the same thing still occurs today by the "righteous."
One other interesting thing about this word is it's place in Kabbalah. In that context the masculine loving-kindness that requires no cause or response is counterbalanced by the feminine Gevurah which is restraint and judgement. And both are needed for balance.
You say that you think God wants us to love him in the same what that he loves us. But, if that is the case then wouldn't that be 'sacrificial' love rather than hesed?
Those are just my thoughts. Hope they make sense!

Been thinking about this. I think parental love is sacrificial love, largely. A sort of unintentional sacrificial love, if that is possible. Like the love of the prodigal son's father, whom I like to refer to as the prodigal dad.

Research within the Faculty
The Faculty's strategic aim is to produce excellent research that is both interdisciplinary and translational, having practical applications for human and societal benefit.
While preserving traditional disciplinary strengths we bring together researchers from different disciplinary backgrounds. Modern approaches to health and medical research typically demand expertise from scientists with depth of knowledge in specific discipline. They also demand interaction with other specialties, which broadens the background understanding, ensures the work is well targeted and develops transferable teamwork skills.
Our work encompasses a range of activities, from asking fundamental questions about pathogen biology and non-communicable disease; through to developing practical interventions for the treatment of individuals and maintaining their well-being, to informing public health policy.
Research within the Faculty is organised around five main themes:
- Ageing
- Health information, computation and statistics
- Infectious Disease Transmission and Biology
- Mental Health
- Social and Economic Inequality in Health
The work within each of these themes
- addresses issues of national or international importance in health and biomedicine
- reflects the multidisciplinary nature of our research portfolio
- delivers research excellence
Translating our research into impact in the real world has always been a priority in the faculty. Our research has had important benefits to people in the wider community; regionally, nationally and internationally.
The Faculty has important partnerships with other parts of the University that carry out health-related research. We also enjoy close collaborations and strong links with NHS and social care partners, health-related industries and the voluntary sector.
Through the National Institute for Health Research, we offer a free Research Design Service for NHS staff in the North West region to develop the statistical content of research applications. We work closely with colleagues in the NHS and other health agencies locally, nationally and internationally. We encourage proposals for collaborative work and our Lancaster Health Hub works strategically to increase collaborative research and knowledge exchange between Lancaster University, Industry, NHS partners and Social Care across Lancashire and Cumbria.
The Faculty is host to the Centre for Ageing Research, one of the University's interdisciplinary research centres.

The primary event rate was 12.9% with multicourse steroids compared with 12.5% for placebo (1.94 OR, 95% CI 0.77 to 1.39, P=0.83) Kellie Murphy, M.D., of the University of Toronto, reported at the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine meeting here.
"Compared to a single course of antenatal corticosteroids, multiple courses of antenatal steroids, every 14 days, were not associated with neonatal benefits," said Dr. Murphy.
Moreover, repeated steroid doses were associated with significant antenatal morbidity in secondary neonatal outcomes, she added, including significant decreases in birth weight, birth length, and head circumference.
A single course of antenatal corticosteroids reduces the risk of respiratory distress syndrome and neonatal death, said Dr. Murphy. A comparison of weekly versus single-course antenatal corticosteroids suggested that repeated administration of steroids reduces the risk of respiratory distress syndrome but also reduces in utero growth.
The trial aimed at investigating whether increasing the interval between steroid doses would preserve the benefits without increasing fetal risk. Researchers in 20 countries enrolled 1,858 women who remained at risk for preterm delivery 14 to 21 days after receiving a single course of corticosteroids.
Study participants were randomized to placebo or to intramuscular betamethasone, administered in two 12-mg doses 24 hours apart, every 14 days. Treatment continued until 33 weeks, six days of gestation, or delivery.
The primary outcome was the composite of perinatal or neonatal mortality or significant neonatal morbidity, defined as severe respiratory distress syndrome, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, intraventricular hemorrhage, periventricular leukomalacia, or necrotizing enterocolitis.
The groups were well matched for baseline characteristics, including a mean gestational age at randomization of approximately 29 weeks.
The lack of difference in the primary outcome carried over to the individual components of the outcome, said Dr. Murphy. A similar number of stillbirths and neonatal deaths occurred in each group, as did each of the events included in the definition of neonatal morbidity.
The groups also were similar with respect to maternal outcomes (gestational age at delivery, mode of delivery, and infection). However, the steroid group fared significantly worse for secondary neonatal outcomes: mean birth weight (2,216 versus 2,330 g, P=0.0016), mean birth length (44.5 versus 45.4 cm, P=0.00075), and mean head circumference (31.1 versus 31.7 cm, P<0.0001).
"What was surprising to us is that 70% of patients received only one or two doses of steroids, which one would not have thought was a large amount, and still there was a significant increase in all of those parameters," said Dr. Murphy.
In post hoc analyses of the data, investigators examined outcomes in neonates delivered less than seven days after exposure to the study drug and those delivered at less than 32 weeks' gestational age. Neither comparison revealed a significant difference between treatment groups.
|Dr. Murphy reported no disclosures.

you understand the financing your buyer will need to purchase your property, and how to evaluate the financing your buyer proposes in the contract.
In today's market this is critical. The lending environment is changing daily, and it is hard for even those of us who work in this day in and day out to keep abreast of the changes in programs, laws and the variances between the different types of lenders and brokers.
First of all, the basics... Do you know the difference of the varying loan programs available? Do you know the difference between VHDA, VA, Rural Housing and FHA loans?
Can you do seller financing, or partial seller financing? How is that structured and is it a good idea?
Can you do seller financing, or partial seller financing? How is that structured and is it a good idea?
Which of these (and other) types of financing can be used to purchase your home?
Some loans are only available in certain geographic locations.
There are requirements for some loans about the physical condition of the property.
There are loans you can't get because you don't have the "right" kinds of utilities, appliances and mechanics in place in the home.
There may be "anti flipping" policies in place, which require that you, the seller, have owned the property for a specified amount of time.
Some of the loans are "layered", which means more than one set of rules might apply to your transaction. Which ones are layered and how do you know?
Are there any quirky or less common things about your home? Believe it or not, there may be issues that can prevent certain lenders, or certain types of loans, from being used for the purchase of your home. A few examples of things I've seen come up:
Some lenders won't loan if the subject home has a well or septic system on another property, or there is a well or septic system which is located on the subject property that supports a home on another property.
If a garage (or other space) has been converted to a finished living area, there are rules about how that had to be done. If they are not serviced by the HVAC system, it could be an issue.
"Harry Homeowner" work that wasn't done to code is a common problem with loans; EVEN if it looks nice.
Things as small as rotting trim or a warped backsplash behind the sink or a missing handrail can cause loan issues and prevent you from being able to sell as planned.
Missing kitchen appliances sometimes cause issues, depending on the type of loan.
And, then there are the "rules"... like:
If your house doesn't appraise, then what? Can you get a new appraisal? A new lender? A new buyer? What if they are using the same kind of loan? Some appraisals stick with the properties for as much as 6 months. A low appraisal can taint your home and force you to sell low or wait 6 months or more, unless you know how to get it released or overturned.
Homes that don't have central heating systems don't qualify for certain loans.
There is a minimum processing time for loans now, thanks to new regulations. Do you know the soonest closing date any lender can offer?
Can you do a rent-back after settlement? For how long?
Each loan program has a different minimum down payment requirement, do you know the difference?
Are there no money down loans available anymore?
Which of these loans requires the seller to pay part of the closing cost, and how much?
Do you understand the financing and appraisal clauses of the contract? What do they really mean? In today's environment, don't assume everything will go as planned. These lenders are tough.
There are all of these things, and so much more, to consider.... and we've only discussed the requirements for the HOME and "deal", we haven't mentioned the requirements for the buyer yet! And, yes, there are requirements for the buyer... it is no longer like the good old days where you could sign a statement telling them your income and they'd believe you. Buyers are really put through the ringer to get a loan now. Will they qualify? How can you tell?
Do you know the difference between a lender and a mortgage broker? between prequalification, pre-approval and approval? Not knowing may cost you money - a lot of money.
What about rent to own offers - like rent with first right of refusal or a rental option, or a contract for deed or other variation of seller financing? What are the differences? Where can you get the right advice? Do you know and understand the potential pitfalls?
Based on the contract you might get on your house, you will make decisions - to buy or rent another home, you'll even have to move before you actually sell the house (usually), this costs MONEY....something that no longer grows on trees here in the good ol' USofA.
What protections do you have, as the seller, if the deal goes south?
While even the best real estate agent can not quarrantee you that any buyer will be loan-worthy, they can help you to minimize the risks of getting half way to closing only to find out your buyer can't get a loan. A good agent can also try to HELP that buyer get a loan, or solve their lending problem, using the resources he or she has available - which should be a lot.
Maybe you work in the lending environment...that will help you tremendously with this aspect of your sale, so you might NOT need a REALTOR....unless you need any of their other services.

This is REASON #5 of the TOP TEN REASONS NOT TO HIRE A REAL ESTATE AGENT TO SELL YOUR HOME. (Click this link to see all posts in this series.)
Stay tuned to the REAL ESTATE WHISPERER for the rest of the posts in this series.
In the meantime, if you need honest feedback about whether you should hire a REALTOR to sell your home, and if you're in the Loudoun/Dulles area, feel free to call me. I am happy to talk with you over the phone about some of the pros/cons of hiring a real estate agent.

Clemson-GT The Passing Game
|2004-09-09 11:37:40.0- -
When GT Has The Ball
The Georgia Tech wideouts come into this game with huge question marks. Nate Curry may not be able to play Saturday against Clemson. Coach Gailey would not discuss in detail, just saying he had taken a turn for the worse.
Outside of Curry, the Jackets' receivers only 14 catches for 156 yards coming into the season. Calvin Johnson, a true freshman, is the wild card in Saturday's game. Against Samford, he had 2 catches for 45 yards. Johnson is a legitimate big play threat. The Jackets will try and get him one on one with Justin Miller or Tye Hill.
The Tigers will likely counter by playing man against the Jackets. With Clemson's experienced secondary, they could play right up at the line. The Tigers could try and frustrate the young Johnson by playing him very physical.
The other wideouts that Tech will play includes Damarius Bilbo, Xavier McGuire, and Chris Dunlap. Bilbo has bounced around from quarterback to receiver, but has drawn praise from the coaching staff thus far. Clemson's experienced secondary holds a huge advantage in this matchup.
Reggie Ball did not have a 300 yard passing game last season, and he only threw for more than 200 yards four times. Offensive Coordinator Patrick Nix has talked about throwing the ball down field more this year, but if Curry cannot play it really hurts the Tech passing game.
Bilbo and Johnson will be key factors in the success of the Yellow Jackets passing game.
Clemson free safety Travis Pugh is also battling a calf strain, but is expected to play. Tavaugh Monts came in for Pugh last week, and had a key pass breakup in the second overtime against Wake Forest.
Last week, the Clemson secondary was forced to play a lot of zone. John Lovett's secondary could be placed in a lot of man coverage to challenge the inexperienced wideouts.
When Clemson Has The Ball
There were some questions heading into the first game if Chansi Stuckey could replace Derrick Hamilton. Those questions are long forgotten. Stuckey's 8 catches for 112 yards and special teams play proved to many Tiger faithful what coaches had been saying since the spring. At his size, Stuckey is a very physical receiver.
Airese Currie and Stuckey have the speed to really stretch a defense. Both are very talented open field runners, who may also become involved in the running game on reverses more this week.
Georgia Tech will counter with Reuben Houston and Kenny Scott. Dawan Landry and James Butler anchor the secondary at the safety spots.
Last season, Clemson was able to get the vertical passing game going but GT has made changes in their scheme.
Kelvin Grant, Curtis Baham, and Ben Hall could all become more involved in the passing game this week. Grant's biggest catch last week didn't even give him credit for yards. On the tying two point conversion, Grant made a beautiful jump ball catch. Grant still may have the biggest upside of the Tigers' receivers, but is waiting for the breakout game. His one catch against Wake Forest came on a sliding catch across the middle for 14 yards.
Baham is a very consistent receiver and blocker.
The offensive line will have to improve's its blocking for Hall to be a factor in the passing game. The Yellow Jackets' secondary only have combined for 11 interceptions for their careers. Expect the Tigers once again to play to their strengths and expose the weaknesses in Tech's secondary again this year.

text: Hi girls, this is officially "leave online shopping alone, please!"-week for me. Problems and problems... Two days ago I bid and won a pair of Rock and Republic jeans, the Kiedis Skull model. I looove that model, of course nobody sells it here in Italy, so I go to Ebay. Silly me, this sweet girl was selling "only one pair". Everything perfect: size, wash.. I bid, win and pay right away with paypal. The girl has excellent history and everything. After paying she sends me the nicest email: she is going to send out the jeans the next day, thank you for the prompt payment, etc. Then I go to Elux and other sites, and discover that the jeans are totally fake. I watch some pictures and it is quite evident. So I send her an email: ----------------------------------------- Hi XXX! I jist wanted to know if you sent out the jeans already. I have been going around the Internet tonight and unfortunately I am beginnig to be afraid that the jeans that I purchased from you are not authentic. I have been comparing them with the pictures I found around (like this: http://www.blaec.com/lib/rr-kiedis-stud-skull-detail.jpg) and I discovered that the color of the threads and the way the skull is sewn on the jeans look different, as well as the label on the back of the jeans. Now, I'm not an expert at all, so I do not want to misjudge you anyhow. I hope you will confirm that they are authentic. However, when I am getting the parcel, I will have them authenticated by the local reseller of these jeans. I hope that you will accept a return if the doubts I have on authenticity will be confirmed. ------------------------------------------ She replies: --------------------------------------------- Hi, XXX I did mail them out the same day as you paid. The wash is ruckus, which is hard to find and the picture you emailed me was anthrax, which is different. Also, if you want to read about R&Rs, the silver tag on the size tag is listed on a ebay guide, which these jeans do have. I understand your concerns. If you are not satisfied when you recieve the jeans, contact me within 3 days and we will figure out something from there. Thank you, XXX ---------------------------------------------- So she's so sweet that I give her the benefit of doubt. I decide to wait and see the jeans by myself. Then tonight I get this: --------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- eBay Listing Removed JM77146170) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dear XXX, Thank you for your bid on the following listing: Item number: 110046116411 Title: Rock Republic Kiedis Skulls Jeans 31 30 29 1 day only!! Unfortunately, eBay removed this listing because it violated eBay policy. We hope you understand that, due to privacy concerns, we're unable to discuss the details of this violation. All bids or offers on this listing have been canceled. Because the listing was ended, you no longer have any obligation to purchase this item. If the seller chooses to relist the item, you're welcome to bid on it again. [...] --------------------------------------------------------------- So... what am I supposed to do now? Will I be able to start a dispute if the item has been pulled from Ebay? How could they end a listing that was already ended? WTF??? Anyway, I wrote to Ebay but I am really concerned now. Has this ever happened to you?
