Sena kin claims suitcase of memories
September 23, 2004
Pete Sena's memories are going home.
A suitcase full of mementos found by sorority sisters at the University of Northern Colorado was claimed on Thursday by Sena's stepdaughter and niece.
Marie Tucker, Sena's niece who lives in Lakewood, was flipping through television stations Wednesday night before she went to sleep when she saw a picture of her aunt on 9News.
The station ran a story about the Alpha Phi sisters who found the suitcase and were looking for relatives.
As Tucker watched, she saw a picture of her uncle, her relatives and then a picture of herself riding a pony: "I was all excited like a kid ready to go to Christmas. It's a big deal to us."
Tucker was only 10 when Sena died in 1959, but she remembers him as a vibrant, outgoing person: "We hadn't thought about my uncle for a while, and this just rekindled the childhood memories."

The suitcase contained an Army uniform and Tucker confirmed that Sena was a veteran. He fought in World War II and was captured by the Japanese and placed in a war camp in the Philippines.
While there, he was a part of the Bataan Death March, when the malnourished prisoners of war were brutally forced to march 100 miles to a new camp. Prisoners were denied food and water and, if they fell behind, were executed. Upon his release, Sena was selected to testify to Congress about the atrocities of the march.
Tucker's mother was Sena's sister. Tucker has an album that her mother kept with pictures of Sena.
"It would mean a lot to my family to have those pictures," she said.
Holly Markley, a 20-year-old junior and member of the sorority, plans to take the suitcase down to Tucker's house because her parents live right down the street.
In fact, when Markley had her mother trace the genealogy of Sena in Lakewood a few weeks ago, the suitcase was only two minutes from Tucker's home.
Tucker and Sena's stepdaughter will decide how to split up the memorabilia.

Thankful Thursday
Exactly one year ago today, I enjoyed a day completely free of pain. I know this because it was so remarkable that I made a note of it on my calendar. Why? So that I would be able to express my thankfulness to God—every year on this day—for that special, pain-free day in 2012.
And to remember that it is good for me to be thankful for everything in my life.
Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name. —Psalm 100:4
Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe. —Hebrews 12:28
While I'm in this thankful attitude, I'd like to update you a bit on my ongoing health issues. The new medication I started in December did absolutely nothing except make me feel worse, so I ended that trial run in mid-February. This is typically the way Rx meds work for me—they don't! I believe that is part of the many sensitivities I have from FMS, which include light, sound and chemicals.
I was very discouraged by the failure of this medication, but more so because even though I was no longer taking it, I started feeling much worse—and I didn't know that was even possible. Since last May, I have been eating gluten-free and dairy-free, and slowly discovered that I also cannot tolerate soy and peanuts. These foods cause extreme GI distress plus nauseous migraines.
My most recent gut-wrenching (literally) allergy discoveries were onions and garlic. Both my parents were born and raised in Italy and immigrated to the USA in the late 40's. I was raised in an Italian household where tons of garlic and onions were included in the wonderful food Mom made for us. So I was very sad to have to give up these savory foods. How does one cook great Italian food without being able to add onions and garlic anyway?
Around that same time I had a very bad reaction to eating popped sorghum, which is very similar to popped corn but much better for me according to the glycemic index. And then I had a light bulb moment. I had been having several really bad days, so I searched through my food diary and realized I had eaten the popped sorghum for a snack two days in a row. And then on a hunch, I checked out the ingredients list of a crunchy cereal I have been eating practically every day since last May.When I saw that sorghum was the main ingredient, I knew I had been slowly poisoning my body with sorghum.
You see, sorghum flour is slightly sweet and a good addition to many gluten-free foods and baking mixes, and I had been adding a crunchy sorghum cereal to my regular cereal—I absolutely love me some major crunch in my cereal!
Most people who have to eat gluten-free can easily tolerate sorghum, but apparently not yours truly. I like to have cereal for breakfast because it is easy and doesn't require any cooking—a must for this definitely UN-morning person! And the only time I vary that routine is if I'm away from home, which is not that often.
So I had been consuming some sorghum almost every single day for a good 10 months! Plus I had eaten the popped sorghum as a snack for several days in a row.
My body was absolutely rebelling, and now I know why.
It has been about 3 weeks since I stopped eating any kind of sorghum and I had to give away about a dozen different gluten-free baking mixes that contain sorghum. BUT what a huge improvement in how I feel! I still have migraines when we're experiencing a nasty weather front up here in the mountains, but my energy level is improving and I am not sleeping as much of my life away these days.
I'm starting to feel like I have the "new normal" me back—you know, the one with those chronic illnesses but who is still able to get through most of my days without feeling like I am constantly being run over by a semi.
Thank You, Lord!
Rejoice always; pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. —1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Beloved, how about you? What are you thankful for today?

Three distinct department buildings have been refurbished and extended around a new shared four-storey space
Following a limited competition, CSK Architects was appointed to create an integrated science faculty with full accessibility provided at all levels for the three departments, biology, chemistry and physics, which have been reorganised horizontally across the whole complex.
The three existing buildings, which sit within the Eton Conservation Area, are collectively known as Queen's Schools. These consist of a Victorian building designed by Arthur Blomfield, a 1950s building by Lord Holford and a 1980s Ove Arup building, all three of which are now linked by a new four-storey central foyer, incorporating exhibition and display space, and across which concrete and glass bridges connect teaching spaces.
The project included the fit-out of 27 laboratories and the addition of two new laboratories in a new-build chemistry pavilion. Front and rear courtyards were also remodelled to create external teaching spaces and a new rooftop pavilion on the Holford Building creates a space for experimental teaching, with a focus on renewable energy and biodiversity.
Architect's view
One of the main ambitions for the new science buildings at Eton College was to create a shared 'critical space' at its heart – a space of social encounter and informal discourse that brings together the three separate science departments, and creates a sense of identity for the faculty as a whole. This has been achieved in the form of a dramatic vertical foyer that splices together the three horizontally structured science departments, comprising concrete and glass bridges, display cabinets and natural history exhibits, a triple-height hanging mobile, multiple new views into surrounding classrooms, and selected fragments of the original buildings from which this quadruple-height space has been wrought.
The proposals at Queen's Schools, the remodelled entrance courtyard, the new atrium and the new roof pavilion have all been developed to create an inclusive sustainable architecture which provides the opportunity to achieve a greater connection to place, and so change the way in which students study, experience the department and interact with one another. Careful consideration has been paid to the process of how students move through the department and the improved circulation has driven the design of the proposals. The central atrium creates areas for different speeds and levels of activity, from quiet contemplation to the dynamism and excitement of larger exhibition areas.
Throughout the building the passage of time is celebrated not masked. The very nature of science charts progress developed over time, and in the same way the history of the buildings and the way in which the college has evolved should be evident. The passage of time adds a sense of delight, not decay to architecture through weathering, patina, adaption and use.

Client's view
We had wrestled for a number of years as how to make the frankly rather dowdy science department buildings more contemporary and stimulating. Not only did they seem stuck in the Victorian era but they also struggled to meet the demands of a contemporary science curriculum and the capacity demanded by the many more boys opting to take sciences. CSK met the brief wonderfully and we now have a building that has a palpable sense of excitement right from the point of arrival.

Tomorrow is St. Valentine's Day. For some it used to be a time to send a greetings card with a soppy message.
I have only ever received one and inside was a little poem in very florid handwriting.
Thankfully, for me at least, it says here that the "custom of choosing and sending valentines has of late years fallen into comparative desuetude."
I had to check that last word in my dictionary, although the context makes the meaning clear. It reminded me of a recent article in the Jakarta Post which describes a walking tour of historical sites in Cikini, central Jakarta.
The group lingered a while at the European-style post office. The guide Candha told each of the participants to send a postcard to anyone [if] they wanted to "experience the sensation of sending physical letters."
Rather than selfies?
You might not have known that in Estonia, February 14th is known as Friend's Day (Sõbra päev). Unless it's become an over-commercialised occasion like St.Valentine's Day, I like that. Of course, I'm not referring to the 5,000 Farcebook 'Friends', but to the notional five, maximum 15, which our brains can cope with. Friends are there when you need support, or to discuss life, the universe and everything.
Perhaps Carole King expressed it best …
There are folk who are isolated from society and lonely, and others who are happy, preferring to be alone. Most of us though gather acquaintances, discover things we have in common, and, lo, we have a new friend. However, few, if any, relationships run smoothly all the time, and that's what this compilation of songs I've put together is about.
To whet your appetite, listen to this wonderful song.
01. Ollie Halsall – You Need a Friend
02. Barry Dransfield – Be My Friend
03. The Fleetwoods – Ask Him If He's Got A Friend For Me
04. Ian Matthews – Please Be My Friend
05. Andrew Gold – Thank You For Being A Friend
06. Arrival – Friends
07. Aqualung – New Friend
08. Robert Wyatt – Was A Friend
09. Emilie Simon – My Old Friend
10. Robert Johnson – When You Got A Good Friend
11. Nguyên Lê – Don't You Go Away My Friend (in Vietnamese)
My main site has a mini-rant about how certain friendships are persecuted in the name of a misogynist religion.

All-College Writing Contest winners announced
The All-College Writing Contest winner for 2018–19 is Maria Civitello '20 with honorable mention going to Kristin Rawlings '19.
Civitello wrote her winning essay, "Perspectives of Self-Actualization in Austen's Emma," for the Happiness and the Nineteenth-Century Novel course taught by Associate Professor and Chair of English Carla Arnell.
As a double major in psychology and French, Civitello said her paper's topic "allowed me to relate Austen's novel to my love for psychology."
After graduation, Civitello plans to pursue graduate work in either psychology or speech-language pathology. "This opportunity to consider the relationship between psychology and literature was valuable," she said.
This year's honorable mention goes to 2016 First-Year Writing Contest winner Rawlings. She wrote the essay, "Depictions of Damnation in the Beautus Manuscripts: Painting Adoptionism as Heresy," for the course Hell, Damnation, and Romanesque Art, taught by Visiting Assistant Professor of Art History Beth Woodward.
Rawlings is an English and religion double major. She's also pursuing a minor in print and digital publishing.
"Having this recognition will demonstrate to potential employers and graduate schools that I am a capable candidate and will hopefully benefit me in these future endeavors," Rawlings said.
The All-College Writing contest encourages students to excel as scholarly writers and gain further interest to write about their learnings.

Gulf Oil Spill
We've all been following the environmental disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. It looks like the "Top Kill" method has worked...lots of fish, birds and other animals are being killed by the oil. Oh, and by the way, since when does shooting mud into a GUSHING oil well stop the leak. I am no engineer, but that sounds stupid. The powerful gush certainly will drive the mud right back out. That reminds me of high school physics. So now we will have oil-soaked mud. Great. This whole debacle caused by BP and the US government makes me think of creating an award for bone-head moves.

Consider the summer conditions your customers will expose your products to. Sun, water, and winds. Winds won't impact your label unless you need an adhesive upgrade, but consider how customer needs change as the seasons also change.
First, consider why customers will expose your products to summer conditions.
For food products, customers will bring them outside to enjoy in their backyards, at picnics, or at the beach. For beauty items, shoppers will be bringing them on vacation in a hotel room, on their campsite, or even leave the items in their car. Other products are likely to be left outside for extended periods of time as well. All industries should consider the impact of customer engagement.
Use Proper Inks
No ink should fade in the sun. The Resource Guide To All Things Inks & Coatings to keep your graphics looking sharp and timeless. It's a simple consideration that goes a long way.
The WetStick™ Label
If your product will sit by a pool or on the beach, make sure it withstands moisture. The WetStick™ label uses advanced adhesive chemistry so no matter what, your label will last. It's an invisible upgrade, but one that dramatically improves the customer experience.
Add Some Reflective Shine
Once outside, your labels should shine in the light. Enhance your label's features with foiling, and use MiraFoil specifically for intricate details. It creates a haptic experience which creates subconscious, positive associations, even nostalgic associations. For example, If your label features water elements, add foil to mimic the reflecting aspect of water. It may just mentally bring your customer back to the pool.
Learn more about the labeling solutions Great Lakes Label offers. We offer a variety of inks and coatings that create a label that excites customers. Download our e-book, The Resource Guide To All Things Inks & Coatings.

Petbuddy Services is a smaller family daycare and dog boarding that's currently working on expanding their facilities as well as services. Before they accept your dog, they require a trial day that costs $25 and can last all day. If your dog passes, the daycare costs $40 a day (including transportation) and they are open from 8 AM until 8 PM.
Previously I wrote about a different daycare that we also used for Smiley that unfortunately didn't work out. He was anxious at the other one and needed one-on-one attention otherwise he would spend all day trying to escape. The staff told me that while they could handle him because they had enough experienced staff to give him the care he needed, he clearly didn't enjoy being there. So I tried taking him to Petbuddy Services instead.
After meeting Oscar only twice, I am convinced that he has supernatural dog whispering abilities. Him and his dad are dog lovers and are great at keeping up to 20 dogs calm and content throughout the day. The only time the dogs bark at PetBuddy is when someone new is coming or leaving, otherwise they are just hanging out! That's an amazing feat with so many dogs!
Since Smiley didn't enjoy the first daycare, I was worried that he would hate all daycares. But he did really well at PetBuddy for 12 hours, two days in a row. He was still crazy at pickup, but when they went to get him for me and put his leash on, he was chilling with the other dogs. It was a huge relief knowing that there's a place to take him where he was safe and happy.
Although Smiley will be spending most days staying at home where he is more comfortable (we have cameras set up to watch him to make sure that doesn't change), we will definitely be using PetBuddy again the future. Probably for boarding a well as daycare, since we trust them and know that he is happy there. In the mean time, he gets a 30-minute social walk through his old daycare that is more than enough on our average work day.
Anyway, back to PetBuddy. Starting November 12th, they finally completed their move from Wilson Avenue to 54 Noll Street, Brooklyn. Their new location offers a rooftop playground, pet grooming (through their new partner Pet Wash N'Go and they will be selling organic dog products. Their prices are going up a little with the new facilities, so now cage-less boarding will be $59.99 for 24 hours and $40 for daycare including transportation ($5 increase, but transportation used to cost that much anyway.)
I wholeheartedly recommend Petbuddy Services and vouch for Oscar and his dad. They do cost a little more than other daycares in the area, but it is 100% worth it. I am excited to visit their new place and see how much they have grown.

I first saw this cottage at Campagne Decoration and this little place got stuck in my mind, I kept thinking how wonderful it would be if I was enjoying a sunny day in a pretty place like this one. Every cottage should be as simple and comfortable as this one. The lighter the better! Natural light should be a priority. Windows and doors galore so the breeze can come in at all times. My favorite kind of cottages are shabby-chic and if I had one, I'd be looking for great finds only at garage sales and flea markets — where we can always find items with character and some history.
When it comes to this particular place it wasn't hard for it to become this magical, because the best presence here is the ocean. I truly believe that nothing makes a place more beautiful than having the ocean right beside it!
Really beautiful and romantic.
So comfy and welcoming! I'd sit here and stare at this view for hours. Don't we all need moments like that? Where all we do is look at something relaxing so we can let go of anything that's bothering us. I hope you have a spot in your house where you can just sit and find yourself again.
Open To The Sea
This beautiful Swedish table and chairs were originally purchased in an auction.
Dining Room
Simple yet beautiful furniture keeps your eyes where it should be: on the view! The chandelier brings some charm to this dining room.
Vintage Beauty
I'm in love with this cabinet. It's simply stunning!
Before throwing anything in the trash, think twice. A little bit of creativity is essential to have an unique home.
Family Living
The laid back rattan furniture is perfect for a cottage.
Master Bedroom
Comfy, cozy and stylish. I love benches, especially vintage ones like these in the picture. This bench comes from a Chinese antique shop.
Drink By The Waves
Perfect scenery and a perfect table for some drinks on the sand.
Just by seeing this place I feel a little bit warmer and I just can't wait to walk on the beach again!
I'm wishing you a day filled with blessings! See you tomorrow! 🙂

Luciane, I love that cabinet too! Let's build one! I love the color tto.

Oi, Lu!
Sou fã do estilo dinamarquês quando se trata de decoração, eles são mesmo fantásticos.
Usam muito branco e preto, as casas são claras, leves e suuuper aconchegantes.
Esta casa é linda, perfeita, parabéns!
Oh, it takes me home – to the place I once belonged….life was simpler and calmer there – shared with real (down to earth) people who always have time for family and friends. I can hardly wait to share some of my August with all of you. 🙂
This is my kind of place!!!!!!!! Love it 😉
Beautiful cottage and the views are unbelievable! I would love to curl up in any of those rooms and watch the ocean lap in and out. Thanks for sharing.
What an absolutely lovely and refreshing cottage! It has such a relaxed vibe. Oh to live so close to a beautiful beach…
And my goodness, that cabinet! SO gorgeous!
Meera xx
I could move right in there. just beautiful.
So beautiful – I love it! Yes please 🙂
Just loved the way to the beach !

There is a large variety of orange flavored liqueurs available for a number of different applications. Triple Sec, Blue Curacao, Cointreau, Grand Marnier, X-rated, and Solerno all have an orange flavor. Each one of them is a bit different, of course.
The most abundant style of orange liqueur is triple sec. You will find a cheap brand of triple sec in the well at most bars. Brands like Jacquin's, Bols, Hiram Walker, Dekuyper, and many others all make a triple sec orange liqueur. Triple sec is called triple sec due to typically being distilled three times and tending toward a drier (sec) orange.
Cointreau was seen as the original premium orange liqueur. The original orange liqueur was a product called Combier. Distribution of Combier is fairly limited, however. Cointreau is seen as one of the best, widely distributed, premium orange liqueurs on the market today.
The direct counterpart to Cointreau is Grand Marnier. The two products have almost exactly the same price point depending on your region. Where I live, they both cost $35 a bottle. Grand Marnier is quite distinct in that it is an orange liqueur that is blended with cognac. This changes it to having a brown color and creates a fairly unique blend of flavor that some people will drink straight.
Curacao is another style of orange liqueur. Curacao takes its name from the island of curacao off the coast of Venezuela. The oranges used in curacao tend to be those from the island, but there is no such legal requirement. The fun thing about curacao is the color palette available. Americans have blue curacao everywhere. There is also green, red, and orange curacao. This is literally just food coloring and dye added to the liqueur. We like the blue color because bartenders are creative people and people love pretty drinks. We already had other liqueurs in all the other colors, so when a blue liqueur came to be available it caught on like wildfire.
There are a few other orange liqueurs worth mentioning quickly. Solerno is a premium liqueur made from the blood orange. Campari is a bitter liqueur that uses just the peels of oranges as one of it's many flavors. Campari should not be used as a substitute for any other orange liqueur. X-rated is a liqueur made with french vodka, blood oranges, and passion fruits. Many other recent liqueurs use orange and other fruits as well, like Gran Gala and Patron Citronage.

Gentle Giant Weighing 130-Pounds Steps Into A New Home For The Very First Time
Mar 07, 2019
When searching for a new dog to bring into their home, most people keep their online searches local. Yet when Jayne's husband noted a 130 pound Saint Bernard in an out of state shelter, the couple did not hesitate when Jayne booked a plane ticket from upstate New York and flew to Nebraska to pick up and drive home their new companion, Cosmo.
The no-kill shelter, Hearts United for Animals, located in Auburn, Nebraska, did not have a lot of history on Cosmo. They noted on his file that he was a breeder drop off, but did not have a reason behind his abandonment.
Yet they knew the handsome giant with his charming Saint personality would find the right home eventually and that home just happened to be located out of state.
Shelter workers were moved to tears when Jayne first stepped out of her car and met Cosmo in the dog yard. Carrying a little green stuff alligator as a toy for her new pooch, Jayne approached Cosmo with love and gentleness.
She sweet talked the dog as he lolled in her lap and happily wagged his tail back and forth at the attention. It was apparent from the first moment that Jayne was meant to be Cosmo's new owner.
With Jayne's sister, Maggie, as an assistant, the two women packed up the Saint and began the long drive back to New York. Cosmo was hesitant about the car—an obviously new experience—but was a good driving companion once he settled in.
Finally arriving at Jayne's home, the giant pup had all new adventures waiting! From meeting the family including the couple's children, two other dogs, Poppy and Grendel, and household rabbits—Cosmo had a lot of exciting experiences.
Perhaps the most exciting, however, was moving into an actual home—as Jayne suspects Cosmo lived outdoors with his previous owner.
With a lot of patience, Cosmo learned how to navigate stairs, get up and down out of the family vehicle and began accepting treats from his new owners. Within a few days, he was playing with the family dogs and learning table manners (as the family table is the perfect height for a Saint to swipe a meal from time to time). Jayne and her family are devoted to Cosmo and it is obvious Cosmo is smitten with his new family members as well.
Have you ever adopted a rescue animal? What was your experience like? Tell us about it in the comment section! If this story about Jayne and Cosmo has brightened your day, pass it along to your friends and family—they may need a smile too!

A San Diego judge indicated he will throw out a lawsuit filed by three patients and a doctor claiming that California law authorizes the medical practice of aid in dying.
The hearing Friday was to establish whether the lawsuit filed on behalf of Christy Lynne Donorovich-O'Donnell and Elizabeth Wallner merits a trial.
O'Donnell, who turned 47 on Friday, is battling lung, brain, spine, rib, and liver cancer. The civil rights attorney and former sergeant in the LAPD, lives in Santa Clarita with her 21-year-old daughter, Bailey.
In a clip posted to YouTube, O'Donnell said she spends time fearing the pain she's going to endure when she dies.
"All of that time that my mind spends thinking about that, I am not living," she said.
San Diego Superior Court Judge Gregory Pollack said it's not the court's decision to change the state constitution and said "maybe legislation should fix this. Not the court."
He added that he will issue his ruling on Monday and that he expected the ruling to be appealed, according to the Associated Press.
Wallner, 51, of Sacramento has stage IV colon cancer that has metastasized to her liver and lungs.
Outside court, she said she was disappointed in the ruling but hoped to see the issue move forward.
"If we shed some light on it, it actually makes it easier for the patients, easier for the families and a lot less likely for abuse," said Wallner.
"The change the plaintiffs seek is something that the legislature needs to address," said attorney Darin Wessel, who represents the Los Angeles County District Attorney.
A bill stalled in an Assembly committee earlier this month, due in large part to opposition from religious organizations that say allowing doctors to prescribe life-ending drugs is assisted suicide and goes against God's will.
The Assembly Health Committee includes multiple Democratic lawmakers from heavily Catholic districts in the Los Angeles area, where the archdiocese actively opposed the legislation.
The issue garnered national attention when 29-year-old Brittany Maynard moved from California to Oregon to legally end her life following a diagnosis of terminal brain cancer.
Her mother, Deborah Ziegler, lives in Carlsbad and recently told NBC 7 she is committed more than ever to fight for an individual's right to die.
O'Donnell's attorney said they intend to appeal.

LEEKS are in season at the moment and my brother dropped by to give me half a dozen. I was delighted and set about making a big saucepan of Leek, Potato and Bacon Soup. This is a real winter warmer - tasty, substantial and filling.
I still had some leeks left over so for a delicious lunch the next day I rustled up Riverford Rarebit, one of my favourite dishes, the recipe for which I found on the Riverford Organic Farms website. Take a look - there are lots of wonderful recipes there.
Riverford Rarebit
A little oil for frying, e.g. vegetable or sunflower
3 leeks, finely chopped
2 skinless chorizo sausages, diced (the skins will peel off if you dip the sausage in cold water)
4 slices of sourdough, workers white, or malted bloomer bread
In a frying pan with a little oil (you won't need much as the chorizo will provide some fat) sauté the finely chopped leeks and a couple of diced skinless chorizo.
Toast four slices of workers white, malted bloomer or, even better, sourdough and place on a baking tray. Cover with finely sliced strong, dry cheddar. Slicing seems to work better than grating.
Put in a hot oven or under a not too fierce grill until the cheese has melted.
Spread on the leek and chorizo combo and grill/bake for another five minutes.
If you are the proud owner of anything akin to a George Foreman Grill you can scoop some of the crumb out of a bap and replace with the mix. Give it five minutes with the lid down for a crunchy panini/toastie.

Ride A Falling Star
D'Ann Lindun
When showgirl Ava Demassi witnesses a mob hit, she has only one thought—get away. She runs forher life, straight into the pickup of saddle-bronc champ, Levi Callahan.
The last thing Levi expects is another rodeo devotee to jump into his truck, let alone one so desperate. But when a killer gives chase, he realizes she isn't his run of the mill fan. Unable to save his fiancé from being murdered years ago, he won't make the same mistake twice.
Even when the odds seem stacked against them, will Ava and Levi find the one thing in life they've been missing, or will a hired killer cost them everything?
The last set of team ropers cleared the arena and the announcer said, "Okay, folks. Get ready for some rough-stock action. We've got the saddle bronc boys coming up next. This event is an original rodeo event…"
Levi tuned it out. He'd heard the same spiel since he'd been a kid starting out in Little Britches. Or maybe it had all soaked in when he'd tagged along after Clyde Callahan. Hell, he'd probably heard it all in the womb. His mother had been a barrel racer and she could still rope anything with hair. Rodeo was in his blood like oxygen. He couldn't live without it.
Drew was up first on Wizard.
The announcer called his name, and Drew slid into the saddle. The gray mare lunged forward, slamming her chest into the chute. When she calmed, Drew nodded and the arena guys opened the gate. Wizard lunged high and fast, her bucks wild and twisty. In an instant, Levi saw Drew was in trouble. The tricky little mare pulled him forward, out of the saddle and over her head. He hit the ground with a resounding thud.
The arena went still, then broke out in applause when Drew stood and waved.
"That's a no score for Drew Kemper, folks. Give him a round of applause, because that's all he's going home with tonight," the announcer said.
Dutifully, the crowd clapped.
Two more riders went. Then Levi's turn came.
The announcer said, "Fresh off his National Finals win just a few days ago, welcome world champ, Levi Callahan. He rides Shoot Straight."
Levi stepped across the top of the gate and onto the big bay. The gelding had to be at least part draft—he was huge, with a heavy black mane. Levi placed his feet in the stirrups and grabbed the thick halter rope. He shortened it and took a death grip on it. With a deep breath, he nodded.
The gate swung open and Shoot Straight reared in the air, then jumped sky high. Levi rocked with the giant horse, spurring as required. The horse grunted with his mighty effort to unseat Levi. Eight seconds passed in a flurry of bone-jarring, teeth-rattling jumps and landings.
The buzzer went off, signaling the end of his ride. Levi spotted the pickup man to his left. He dropped the halter rope, grabbed hold of the rider's waist, and swung off Shoot Straight onto the ground.
The crowd went wild, cheering and stomping.
Authors Bio: Falling in love with romance novels the summer before sixth grade, D'Ann Lindun never thought about writing one until many years later when she took a how-to class at her local college. She was hooked! She began writing and never looked back. Romance appeals to her because there's just something so satisfying about writing a book guaranteed to have a happy ending. D'Ann's particular favorites usually feature cowboys and the women who love them. This is probably because she draws inspiration from the area where she lives, Western Colorado, her husband of twenty-nine years and their daughter. Composites of their small farm, herd of horses, five Australian shepherds, a Queensland heeler, two ducks and cats of every shape and color often show up in her stories!
D'Ann loves to hear from readers! Please contact her at

bill-swift - July 13, 2016
Now we're talking. It's nearly axiomatic that any craptastic media project involving sextastic celebrities is invariably going to involve something special for the ogling gentleman if only you remain committed to your leering. Such is the case with Dakota Johnson filming a scene for the Fifty Shades of Grey sequel, Fifty Shades Darker. It's all such utter banality, but this silver lining o topless Dakota with her bikini off during a shooting set up, well that's divine.
The daughter of Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith took at least some risk being so super naked and revealed in this film series. So good on her for her decision to bare her sweet funbags and lean hot body for the good of all mankind. There's no reason why softcore content for the fairer gender can't appeal to all, at least for two to three minutes out of the hundred. This is an excellent sign of progress. Enjoy.

Today's saltwater disposal facilities operate within a complex network of regulatory requirements, environmental activists, and trained plant operators. But sometimes, even the most senior operators can't catch and correct every issue. Unfortunately, what they don't identify in time could cost you more than fines and downtime.
Even if you had an endless supply of resources to train up your entire staff staff you would still be left vulnerable to the unexpected.
With our SWD Systems hardware and software platform, your operators and facility managers will have the ability to remotely operate pumps, actuated valves, change setpoints, pumps speeds, and lock-out systems for safe shut-down and maintenance.
The best part? All of this can be done in real-time from anywhere you have an internet connection, eliminating the need for on-site manpower.
We pride ourselves on a depth of knowledge that hinges on being your 24/7 eyes and ears. Should our sensitive saltwater well software detect an irregularity, it leaps into action, alerting the appropriate parties. Using a highly intuitive, user-friendly interface, the remote facility control platform makes it easy to begin issuing commands wherever they are. Without the need for on-site, hands-on action, you significantly reduce the risk of equipment loss, compliance complications, and safety concerns. In fact, the more timely your initial response the more likely you are to defeat a potential threat before it leads to downtime and lost revenue.
As a review, here's a bit of what you can come to expect when you partner with our remote facility control saltwater well software:
- Identify discrepancies and inconsistencies to keep them preventable problems
- Protect your equipment from damage or outright failure
- Reduce issue response time,
- Decrease maintenance and operations costs
- Automatic dispatch for onsite issue correction
Searching for a remote way to resolve facility system issues? Start improving your performance today, contact us.

Hofstra law dean A. Gail Prudenti steers school in 'changing times'
Former Chief Administrative Judge A. Gail Prudenti held one of the highest posts in the state judicial system before becoming the new dean of the Hofstra University Maurice A. Deane School of Law.
She's not only steering future lawyers into the courtrooms where she spent decades. There are higher goals: changing the training of those lawyers, diversifying their skills and preparing them for a legal career vastly different from the one she began 40 years ago.
"I see great possibilities for this law school," said Prudenti, 64, who was named dean on May 1. "The practice of law is going through changing times. It will once again flourish — but in a different way."
Prudenti, who admits her own unpreparedness when she started her first job as a law clerk in 1978, says Hofstra's law graduates will be "practice-ready," having much more on-the-job training alongside experienced professionals before they sit for the bar exam to get their licenses.
Hofstra's law school, with an endowment valued at $47.9 million, is nearing its 50th anniversary in 2020.
Prudenti took over as the 10th dean at a key moment for the school that counts thousands of working attorneys, judicial workers, politicians and advocates in the region among its 11,000 alumni. She had been interim dean since Jan. 1, succeeding Eric Lane, who had served as dean for four years and returned to the school's faculty.
The law school has faced challenges in the past five years, reflecting a national trend caused in part by closing of some large firms, high student debt and a weak employment outlook.
Applications to Hofstra's law school had declined, effectively cutting the total class size in half. The university had to give the school an extra $11 million subsidy, while also eliminating 11 staff positions, according to university officials.
The year-to-year decline in applications began between the 2012-13 and 2013-14 academic years.
For the class entering in August 2012, Hofstra received 3,892 applications from prospective full- and part-time students. That number dropped to 2,671 in 2013; 2,343 in 2014; 1,848 in 2015; and 1,808 in 2016.
President Stuart Rabinowitz, a faculty member since 1972 who was dean of the law school for 12 years before becoming the university's top administrator in 2001, acknowledged Hofstra was among the victims when "the bottom fell out" of legal education across the country.
"I've never seen a larger downturn in student demand. It just happened so quickly and so deeply," Rabinowitz said. "Nobody was prepared for it."
Now, however, interest in applying to law school appears to be on the rise. Nationally, the number of students who are taking the admissions exam commonly known as the LSAT increased 19 percent from June 2016 to June 2017 after years of post-recession decline.
At Hofstra, the number of applications for the 2017-18 class rebounded significantly to 3,212. Enrollment numbers, though, continue to lag: The current enrollment is 819 students, down from about 1,100 before the downturn. And this year's entering class had 253 students, less than the 320 who enrolled in fall 2012.
Rabinowitz said he believes Hofstra's law school is "on the road to an upswing."
"The world is getting more complicated, both legally and otherwise," he said. "There will always be a need for lawyers — and good lawyers."
The percentage of Hofstra law students passing their first bar exam — a popular measure of a law school's success and the competitiveness of its students — was 70.1 percent in July. That was up from 64 percent in July 2016, though still below the 84 percent of July 2013.
Prudenti said she will continue to implement programs to raise students' bar passage and employment rates and continue to prioritize fundraising for scholarships to defray students' costs. The 2017-18 Hofstra law school tuition for full-time students in the juris doctor program is $56,794; for part-time students, it is $42,600.
In service of those goals, Prudenti could summon her professional network, including her relationships in the courts, government and on Long Island.
The Bellport resident grew up in Blue Point and is the daughter of the late Suffolk County Republican chairman Anthony Prudenti.
She became a judge in 1992, sitting on the state Supreme Court and serving as the Suffolk surrogate judge. She has served on the Appellate Division since 2001 and as its presiding judge from 2002 to 2011. From December 2011 to July 2015, she was chief administrative judge for the statewide court system, overseeing its $2.7 billion budget, 3,600 judges and 15,000 nonjudicial employees.
Third-year law student Alexandra Faver, 24, of Kings Park, said, "With Judge Prudenti the outreach has exponentially grown — which is just a huge benefit for the students. We are exposed to so many working attorneys."
Another plan is to create and strengthen partnerships with the university's Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine and the Fred DeMatteis School of Engineering and Applied Science.
Recently, the schools of law and medicine have created programs that would prepare medical students to be expert witnesses and law students to learn about health care law.
In July, the law school launched its newest clinic, aimed at representing immigrants facing deportation. The 10 law clinics are staffed with law students supervised by professors. The students receive two to six credits per clinic course.
With that practical approach, "when you graduate and pass the bar, no one is saying 'Congratulations, you are my first client,'" said Theo Liebmann, Hofstra law school's director of clinical programs.
Prudenti, who started on the bench in matrimonial court, says she still is committed to family law. This semester, she is teaching a course on guardianship.
While she calls herself "an adequate trial lawyer," she's eager to make her mark on students, hoping to merge her judicial life with academia and beyond.
Her mentor, former state Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman, said he believes Prudenti is the "perfect person to produce a turnaround moment for Hofstra's law school."
"The tide is turning in relation to law school and legal careers," said Lippman, 72, now at the Latham & Watkins law firm, based in Manhattan. "And you need a leader who is in tune with the times."

Today, I get to share a few snippets from a book I love! no spoilers!
I chose Let the Sky Fall by Shannon Messenger. I was super surprised by how much I liked this book! It was interesting and supernatural and romantic. I highly recommend it!
Vane Weston should have died in the category-five tornado that killed his parents. Instead, he woke up in a pile of rubble with no memories of his past - except one: a beautiful, dark-haired girl standing in the winds. She swept through his dreams ever since, and he clings to the hope that she's real.
Audra is real, but she isn't human. She's a sylph, an air elemental who can walk on the wind, translate its alluring songs, even twist it into a weapon. She's also a guardian - Vane's guardian - and has sworn an oath to protect him at all costs.
When a hasty mistake reveals their location to the enemy who murdered both their families, Audra has just days to help Vane unlock his memories. And as the storm winds gather, Audra and Vane start to realize that the greatest danger might not be the warriors coming to destroy them, but the forbidden romance growing between them.
"You deserve to be happy," he whispers. "No matter what you think or what you did. you deserve to be happy."
― Shannon Messenger, Let the Sky Fall
"We were two broken, incomplete people. Now we're one. No one will ever understand me the way she will. No one will ever understand her the way I will."
― Shannon Messenger, Let the Sky Fall
""Screw the oath." I lean in until I feel her breath against my face, then I stop. I don't want to rush her. "You've done enough for them. You're protecting me. Who cares about the rest?"
"I do." She closes her eyes,and her jaw quivers. "I swore to get you safely through this-and I will. And then you'll return with the Gales and meet your betrothed."
"They can take their betrothal and shove it. I want you."
Audra and Vane"
― Shannon Messenger, Let the Sky Fall
"Parents: Perfecting ways to humiliate their children since the dawn of time."
― Shannon Messenger, Let the Sky Fall
"Stepping into a tornado screams This is the dumbest thing you will ever do."
― Shannon Messenger, Let the Sky Fall

When I was in seventh grade, my grandfather Bill said something to me that would change my life forever.
It was the summer I decided to read John Grisham's, The Chamber. Hey, it was cool, it was huge, and most importantly it was adult. One day I was sitting on the couch reading and my grandfather asks, "So how does it end?" I looked at him totally confused. How would I know how it ended? I had just started. Chalking him up to crazy, I ignored him. Of course that only made him clear his throat and speak louder. "Jessy, how does it end?" This made me sigh a very adult sigh and look him dead in the eye. "I don't know Pop-pop. I haven't finished it yet." (Knowing me I'm sure there was some attitude in my answer, but I don't remember that part.) He looked at me with this all knowing gleam in his eye and said the words that would forever be ingrained in my brain. The words that would change the way I live my life even today.
"You should always read the last page of a book first. That way you know how it's going to end. You see the best part of the book is not the ending. The best part is all the meat in the middle. If you don't read the end first, you are always going to be disappointed with the result. When you read the result first, you learn the most from how the characters got there."
Of course I looked at him like he was crazy and continued with my book, but you can bet the house I went and read the last page as soon as he was out of sight. Since then, that's how I read EVERY book. While I would never say it to his face, he was right. So often the ending isn't the best part. In fact, I can't tell you the number of books I have read with the crappiest of endings, yet six months later I'm reading them again. Why? Because while the ending may piss me off or seem way too anticlimactic, the journey the characters take to get there is so compelling I can't help but visit their world again and again.
Imagine if you could read the last page of everything. If you knew the ending of shows like Battlestar Galactica and Buffy the Vampire Slayer would you have paid more attention to the foreshadowing and character developments in the final seasons? What about traveling? You buy a ticket to fly from Las Vegas to New Orleans. What that ticket doesn't tell you is that you're going to get stuck for twelve hours in Denver because of snow and meet a group of students on the same trip you took back in High School.
Or let's even apply it to human life. We all know our last page will include death. The question then becomes, what will be written in the pages in between? What is your character development? Are you rich and full with the quest for knowledge and constant growth or are you just passing through life content to stay stagnant? Do you focus on the journey or is it all about the ending? Do you set goals those Big Hairy Audacious Goals or only those you know you can absolutely achieve?
My challenge to you is this. The next book you read, read the last page of the book first. You'll be surprised how much more you pay attention to the journey.
