The point of my journal is to explore the different parts of my life, not to become its own part. Starting a separate blog called Acceptance which I've written in for the last two months, I realize that I have separated a part of myself into something else which I think "should be." The very title indicates that I feel like I should be accepting a certain lot for myself, as a doctor, as a medical school student, as a pre-medical student. Why do I feel like this? There are a lot of reasons of course, a lot of different reasons that I am working through. Partly, I am working through those feelings in my journal, a system that incorporates my feelings, thoughts, hopes and dreams about my life, part of which are my considerations about medical school. Medical school and the whole medical field is a consideration in part of my life, my life isn't centered around it and my life isn't a part of it. Similar to how Stephen King wrote about writing. He used to have a desk in the center of his study so that he could go in and write for hours at a time. The huge problem with that, which he wrote about in his book On Writing, is that he was using life as a support system for writing. It's the other way around, he said. Writing is a support system for life. Life is the goal, the adventure and the journey. Medical school isn't, writing isn't, cars aren't, music isn't, none of that stuff is. I am living to live, to experience life fully in my own way, to grow in my own wisdom, and to learn to love better. I won't be writing in a separate "journal" for acceptance, my acceptance of who I am will begin with me. If I feel like writing about it for any reason, it will go in My Journal just it always has. And as far as the rest of My Life is concerned, whether it's adventures, random wisdom, classes, friends or whatnot, if I feel like writing about it and giving it it's own blog then so be it. It isn't meant to become a center of my life, a category that completes me, or even some elaborate system to that is meant to make me more interesting, a better person or gain some kind of inner peace. Improving myself starts with myself, my motivation, my principles and my values. My value starts there too. So, while all that is going on, I will keep writing in my journal, if I want to put it up it will go here on my central blog and it will remain named Advance Humanity. That, after all, is the catch phrase which I kept coming across as I used the thesaurus to conclude on this whole acceptance issue. I think it helps to define my principles, my values and in someway it helps define me. That's my story for now and I'm sticking to it…for now.
Advance: exploration, searching, probing, studying, understanding, discovering, voyaging, journeying, learning, insight, wisdom, harmony, inner peace, perception, acuity, observation, awareness, sensitivity, knowledge, discovery, advance as breakthrough, discovery, new idea, revolution, development, growth, improvement, expansion, increase, training, education, enhancement, change, enrichment, excellence, fulfillment, completion, realization, rightness, progress, fortification, strengthening, further explanation, elaboration, clarification, explaining, elucidation, revelation, advance.
Humanity: humankind, civilization, human race, people, kindness, charity, compassion, sympathy, mercy, care, empathy, consideration, thoughtfulness, contemplation, respect, reflection, community, nation, intimates, family, ancestors, relations, introduce, development, evolution, progress, refinement, gentleness, kindheartedness, humanity.

HAMPTON � A Hampton man was aided by the Coast Guard yesterday after his sailboat began taking on water.
HAMPTON � A Hampton man was aided by the Coast Guard yesterday after his sailboat began taking on water.
Coast Guard boat crews responded to assist two people on Thursday, June 26, when their 30-foot sailboat began taking on water and flooding 4 miles northeast of Gloucester Harbor in Gloucester, Mass., at 12:40 p.m.
The sailing vessel Pooka, owned by Hampton resident John Muxie, was headed to Boston, Mass., to Rye. Muxie called for help over his VHF radio and Station Gloucester immediately sent a 25-foot response boat and a 47-foot motor lifeboat to assist the sailboat, homeported in Hampton.
�There were about 50 gallons of water on board, and there was water in the cabin,� said Petty Officer 2nd Class Gary Fleming, a crewman on the response boat.
Fleming went aboard the Pooka, where the water was rising above the deck plates, and with the help of Muxie used a Coast Guard dewatering pump and buckets to remove most of the water while the Pooka continued to transit into Gloucester Harbor.
�Initially they couldn�t get to the on-board dewatering pump because there was too much water in the bilge,� Fleming said. �But, once inside the harbor, they got it started and pumped off more water.�
The response boat escorted the Pooka to the Gloucester harbormaster dock, where it safely moored.
Petty Officer Lauren Jorgensen said the problem appears to have been with the boat�s pumping system.
�It looked like based on what he and the Coast Guard members who went on board that it was a problem with the pumps,� she said. �Normally they pump water out of the bilges but it was backing up.�
Jorgensen said no one was injured. She didn�t know if the sailboat had returned to New Hampshire.
�Once we make sure they�re safe at the pier, our involvement pretty much ends,� she said. �They were safely moored but I don�t know what their plans were from there.�
Muxie could not be reached for comment.

Bitter cold sets in, guaranteeing snow on ground for Christmas
Now that the messy winter storm is past, here comes the next threat: bitter cold temperatures and wind chills.
At least the frigid weather in store for the Kansas City area today and Tuesday guarantees snow will remain on the ground for Christmas Day.
"Very cold air is moving in," National Weather Service forecaster Dan Hawblitzel said Sunday. "We don't expect it to rise above freezing until Wednesday afternoon, at the earliest."
He said the metro area received between 1 and 5 inches of snow Saturday night into Sunday morning, with lesser amounts the farther south you went and 5 inches close to Kansas City International Airport.
That winter wonderland will now freeze in place, thanks to plummeting temperatures. Today was expected to dawn with a low of 5 degrees, which would feel more like 5 to 10 degrees below zero because of the wind chill from winds of 5 to 10 mph.
Today's high probably won't get above 14.
Christmas Eve morning isn't expected to get above 0 degrees, with a wind chill of minus 15. Highs Tuesday will be in the mid-20s.
Christmas Day is expected to see a high in the low 30s. Hawblitzel said temperatures well above freezing aren't expected until Saturday.
No more measurable precipitation is expected soon. There's a slight chance for snow Tuesday night, but it's more likely north of Kansas City to the Iowa border.
The wintry mix Kansas City received over the weekend was part of a pre-Christmas blast that delivered a bit of everything across the country, with freezing rain, snow, ice, flooding and even tornadoes in area that stretched from the Louisiana Gulf Coast to eastern Canada.

Hello. And welcome!
There are so many exciting things happening with this year's festival, I hardly know where to begin. We better start with the dates. It's official. The 2009 (and 2nd annual) Wine Country 'Ukulele Festival will run from Oct. 9 – 11. So far we have the following instructors and performers lined-up: James Hill, Ralph Shaw, Victoria Vox, Kimo Hussey, Faith Ako, Steven Espaniola, the Dominator, Michelle Kiba, Liko Puha, the Makai Gents, and I'm sure we'll be adding more.
We also have two Napa Valley wineries on board–Judd's Hill and Flora Springs–both with a couple of 'ukulele enthusiasts on staff. ('Ukuleles pair very well, it turns out, with most wines. ) I've got a couple of other wineries on the line who also want to be a part of this, so stay tuned. We're still finalizing the different events and sorting out who's going to be where and when, but in the meantime, rest assured that the workshops, held again at the Upper Valley Campus of Napa Valley College, will be top-notch, and if there's enough interest they will extend into Sunday morning.
I know a number of you are anxious to get your room reservations and the earlier the better; it's a very popular time of year here in the Napa Valley. Harvest is generally still in full swing and the Valley is ripe with the smell of fermentation. Calistoga would be a great place to stay and is just about 10 minutes up the road from St. Helena. And you can take a soothing mud bath after (or before) your busy 'ukulele day. At this writing, there seems to be availability in all price ranges. Check out Calistoga Fun for all the options.
And don't forget: the deadline for our logo design contest is Friday April 24. We're looking for something bright and colorful that will convey all the fun and friendship we will enjoy at this year's Wine Country 'Ukulele Festival. The prize for the winning entry is a lovely koa soprano 'ukulele, SK-300G, generously donated by Ohana. Send your entries to me at email@example.com and put "WCUF logo contest" in the subject line.
Leave your Slippahs at Our Door
And while we are having fun making music and new friends, we will have a chance to do some good as well. This year we have teamed up with a couple of charitable affiliates and will probably be adding more as the festival unfolds. The first is Soles4Souls, a 501 (c) (3), based on a very simple concept: get shoes and give them away.
Over 300 million children in the world are without shoes–roughly the same number of shoes that we in the United States throw away every year. And some 1.3 billion hookworm infections (transmitted through the feet when walking without shoes) have been accounted for world-wide.
Well here's a chance to make a huge difference in someone's life with a very simple act. Bring those gently-worn shoes cluttering your closet to the Judd's Hill 'Ukulele Extravaganza on Friday, October 9, and turn them in for an opportunity to win some fabulous raffle prizes. The more shoes you bring in, the cleaner your closet, the more chances you have to win, and the more shoes we can send. Win, win, win. How simple is that?
Not only that, the Wine Country 'Ukulele Festival is a Daniel Pearl World Music Days event, part of an international network of concerts, featuring 3,100 performances in 84 countries, all using the universal language of music to encourage fellowship, raise awareness, and affirm our commitment to tolerance and humanity. Daniel Pearl is the Wall Street Journal reporter who was kidnapped and murdered in Pakistan in 2002. October 10 is his birthday. We will celebrate it in style.
Be sure to check out the Scenes from 2008 and Festival Store pages above. And don't forget to Subscribe so you can be notified automatically as we update information about the festival on this site.
Stay tuned. There's lots more to come.

Allergy is a condition in which the immune system reacts to harmless particles like dust and pollen, causing symptoms like sneezing and congestion. Allergies and sinus symptoms often go hand-in-hand and can cause much misery for sufferers. Because different locations have unique climates and plant life, certain places may be more conducive to an allergy-free lifestyle. Understanding the root cause of allergies can help determine the best places to live for allergy and sinus sufferers.
In order to determine which places are best for allergy and sinus sufferers, you must first be aware of your specific triggers. Factors to consider when choosing a new location include climate, average pollen count during each season, prevalent allergens in the area and access to quality allergy and immunology clinics.
While some cities have naturally lower levels of allergens like grass pollen or mold spores, moving to a new location can trigger symptoms even in those without a history of the condition. According to "The New York Times," changing homes, moving to a new city or getting a new pet can all serve as triggers for sinus and allergy symptoms.
In many cases, repeated exposure to new triggers can result in sensitization to those substances in people not previously allergic to them. This is because allergies are thought to result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors, with genetically predisposed people being more prone to development of new allergies.
Time Frame
The best places to live for allergy sufferers changes from year to year and season to season. According to Beyond Allergy, three basic factors are considered when determining the best and worst cities for allergies, including pollen scores, number of allergy specialists per person and the number of different medications taken by each patient.
The American Academy of Allergy Asthma and Immunology ranks cities based on these factors each year due to fluctuations in climate, pollen count variations and other changes. For instance, some cities may have high allergen scores in the spring and significantly lower scores in the fall or winter.
The best way to prevent allergies is to reduce your exposure to known triggers. According to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, indoor air often contains more allergens than outdoor air. Using an air cleaner with a HEPA filter, vacuuming weekly and keeping pets out of the bedroom can help lower your exposure to indoor allergens.
In general, people with severe mold sensitivities fare better in dry or desert-like climates, while those with dust allergies have fewer symptoms in areas with high precipitation and humidity. Other factors that can affect one's overall allergic burden include food sensitivities, skin allergies and other immunological conditions.
Moving to a new location to escape your allergies is not an effective treatment in itself. Allergy testing is vital for choosing the best course of action, which may or may not involve moving to a new home or city.

It's true, I can't sit still and despite how much I complain about not throwing down some roots I still refuse to do it.
Last week I left NYC, and while I learned more than I thought I could in a few short months, I'm headed in a new direction (well, a few new directions). I decided that I would take everything that I've learned in the last 26 years and apply it with all my heart and soul. This adventure is going to take me beyond just my travels and lifestyle–And it will definitely be abroad. It's bigger than I thought, and I'm ready for it! I can't wait to share with you all where it's going to take me!
For now, I'm going to enjoy the California sunshine ahead of my next adventure. x

blog about this two years ago but by then Dr. Teo had already passed away.
His greatest impact on others was when he had that few months left. I am glad it was not too late for him.
Two years later, unless we have something like this published in the papers, he is mostly forgotten. You can simply go to YouTube and check up when someone left a comment for his talk to the aspiring dental surgeons.

What are the differences between our pizza crust choices?
1. Original Hand Tossed Crust: Freshly-made dough that we stretch with our hands and cook on a special pizza screen.
2. Pan Style Crust: Freshly-made dough pressed into a specially seasoned pan that fries the bottom of the crust as it cooks making a blackened darker crust. Note: It's not burnt -- just cooked a bit differently.
3. Atkin's Style Super Thin Crust: Exactly like it sounds. You actually get more items with this choice as we don't leave much of an edge to this crust.
4. Gluten-Free Crust (only offered in 10" size): If you cannot have gluten or wheat, order this delicious treat. We cannot guarantee 100% gluten-free due to our environment, but we take every precaution by using separate and/or sanitized utensils.
5. Whole Wheat (only offered in 14"): A delicious, hand-tossed, sweet, whole wheat crust.
6. Square Pizza Crust: Same as our Pan Style Crust but it has 4 crunchy corners. The crust turns blackened, but it is all part of the flavor.
7. Stuffed Crust Pizza: We use two crusts, stuff all your ingredients in between and cover them up with double mozzarella cheese. The pizza is then topped off with our fresh pizza sauce and Romano cheese. The top crust melts into the cheese creating a soft top layer of crust, while the bottom is blackened as it bakes and fries in the pizza pan.

Margin of Safety is a term that is more or less owned by value investors, whose central aim is to buy stocks that they believe are undervalued by the market. The difference between the market price and the intrinsic value is the Margin of Safety. If the shares of a company currently trade for 75p, but the intrinsic value of the shares is £1.00, then the Margin of Safety would be 25%.
Determining a company's "true" worth (its intrinsic value) is highly subjective. The way that Benjamin Graham calculated margin of safety years back was highly asset/NCAV-based, and probably quite different from how analysts today might make the calculation. We provide a range of models to allow you to easily run your own valuations and margin of safety calculations. The pre-defined values are simply a starting point based on global assumptions that we have applied across the market - you should amend them as you see fit depending on the specific circumstances of the stock.
For further reading, see this article or Seth Klarman's classic book, "Margin of Safety" (if you can find a copy as it's famously hard to get hold of!).

Good Bye, October. Hello, November.
Does anyone else feel like this year is going by just a bit too fast? I can't believe it's almost November! However, November is one of my favorite months. It is now firmly appropriate to wear boots and scarves every single day until the snow melts. Drinking hot coffee at all hours of the day is equally appropriate and staying home and watching The Holiday and Love Actually (probably the only two rom-com films I will watch - ever) on repeat.
Oh, and it's my birthday month. More on that later.
Here's a little recap of October and what I'm looking forward to in November.
October Recap
This past month was a whirlwind. October brought a mountain of changes and change's best friend, anxiety. If you remember my post on breaking busy and doing more by doing less, I had to make some serious decision regarding my business. I realized that nobody can work 100 hours per week and give 100% to every task on the to-do list. I worked myself to a near breakdown. I made these decisions to create space and margin in my life for what really matters. I'm taking this focus into the final two months of this year, and throughout my 25th year.
I attended Leftovers Calgary Harvest Fundraiser, which was incredible. We were treated to bottomless kombucha from True Buch, delicious scoops from Village Ice Cream, fantastic coffee from KaffeeKlatsch and some great local musicians. It was great to see so many people come out for an amazing cause and help raise enough funds for a much-needed truck for Leftovers. I encourage you to learn more about this great organization and what they do to combat food waste in Calgary.
I had the opportunity to attend Next Big Thing on October 15. This one-day event was an incredibly inspiring and educational experience. Creatives, including branding strategists, photographers, graphic designers, influencers, artisans and entrepreneurs, gathered at The Commons, a gorgeous coworking space in Ramsay. The day was packed with speakers, breakout sessions and a constant supply of coffee. Huge thanks to Kait Kucy and Mike Morrison for curating such a fun event with a fresh take on social media, marketing and business. Here are some highlights for me:
- The best way to get better is to fail over and over again. (Fairgoods)
- There are WAY too many photo and video editing apps than my brain can handle. (Chris Dowsett)
- There's a lot to know about budgeting for your freelance business, but it's doable and extremely important. (Janine Rogan, tax specialist and blogger at My Pennies, My Thoughts.)
- Your inner critic is a big jerk. Learn to make friends with him or her. (Danielle Krysa of The Jealous Curator, keynote speaker)
- Creative entrepreneurship is really, really, really hard. But worth it. (Panel discussion featuring Kyle Chow of Plant, Sarah Ward of Sarah Ward Interiors, Ian and Lisa Davies of Fresh Laundry and The Uncommons, and Jeremy Ho of Monogram Coffee)
Finally, my parents came to Calgary and we celebrated my mom's birthday. We met up for some dinner and drinks after the Stampeders game. (I didn't go...sad face.)
October Best Of

Thank you for your interest in adopting one of our rescued Golden Retrievers. We are not accepting adoption applications at this time, while we work to match the families on our current waitlist with a dog. Please continue to check this page for updates. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
GRRoW reserves the right to cancel an adoption application or deny an adoption at any time during the adoption process.
What do I need to do in order to adopt a Golden from GRRoW?
In order to start the adoption process through GRRoW, you must complete the online Application Form. Once you have submitted this form, a volunteer will get in touch with you to go over the next steps in the adoption process.
What is a Home Visit?
A home visit allows a GRRoW representative to personally meet the potential adoptive family and evaluate the home environment where one of our Goldens may be placed. During the home visit, all family members that live in the home must be present, as well as any pets they currently have. The home visit also allows your family to meet our volunteers and ask any questions that you may have about the adoption process.
What happens after the Home Visit?
If your application and home visit have been approved, your application is put on a waiting list. When our Placement Team believes that your application and criteria matches a Golden in our care, your application will be sent to the foster home for review.
If the foster home believes their foster dog will fit well with your lifestyle and home environment, it will contact you to tell you about the golden in its care.
If your family and the foster home believes this could be a great match, a meeting will be arranged for you (and all household members) to meet the dog.
After meeting the rescue Golden, the adoption does not take place that same day. GRRoW requires at least 24 hours between the applicant meeting the dog and officially adopting. This waiting period is very important; it gives both parties time to process whether or not the foster dog and applicant are a perfect match.
How do I know if I have been approved?
In any case (approval or denial), you will be contacted by a GRRoW representative.
How long does it take to adopt?
Based on how many dogs (if any) in foster care closely match the specifications on your adoption application (gender, age, personality, color, etc.), your wait time could be a couple of months to a year or longer. Note: The wait time for young dogs can often be in excess of a year. Once a potential match is found, a foster family will contact the applicant for a meeting with the foster dog.
Can I adopt from GRRoW if I don't live in Wisconsin?
Unfortunately our policy at this time is not to adopt outside of Wisconsin. Golden Retriever Rescue of Wisconsin has a strict procedure for matching and placing our rescues. There are about 50 families at all times waiting to adopt a dog and the wait has become quite long. For this reason we've now limited our placements to the state of Wisconsin.
What if I have children under the age of 10?
Because one of our top priorities is safety, GRRoW is very careful about the dogs we place into families with young children. Children living in the adoptive home, full or part time, must be at least nine years old.
Where are your foster dogs?
Golden Retrievers in GRRoW's care are fostered in volunteers' homes. We do not have a kennel facility.
Are all the photos of Goldens awaiting adoption on your website?
All GRRoW dogs that are available for adoption are on the Dogs Currently in Foster Care area of www.grrow.org. The status' of the dogs are in each of the dog's profiles.
If I see a dog on your website that I am interested in, can I adopt that dog?
We match our Goldens in foster care to each applicant based on criteria noted on your application and home visit report. It is very easy to fall in love with a picture or a story but that may not truly match what you are looking for in a dog. For this reason, we do not allow applicants to select the dog they want to adopt.
A great testament to this policy is the low rate of returned Goldens that were adopted from GRRoW. Check out the Success Stories page on www.grrow.org and read about adopted dogs that are happily living in their forever homes.
What is the fee for adopting a Golden from GRRoW?
Please reference the Adopt page on our website (www.grrow.org) for a listing of current adoption fees.
Have the dogs seen a veterinarian while in your care?
All dogs in GRRoW's care have been examined by a veterinarian and have had:
The following vaccinations: DHLPP (or DA2LP-P) Leptospirosis, Rabies and Bordetella.
Snap 4Dx test. This test checks for Lyme, Erlichia, Anaplasma and Heartworm disease. If results are positive in any area, the dog will be treated prior to adoption.
Monthly heartworm preventative (if the foster dog is not heartworm positive).
Monthly flea and tick preventative (April – October).
Fecal. If the fecal test is positive for worms, the dog will be de-wormed prior to adoption.
Ear swab. If the dog has an ear infection, he/she will be treated prior to adoption.
Complete Blood Count (CBC) and Chemistry Panel for all dogs ages 7+, all dogs prior to spay/neuter and/or all dogs prior to any surgery.
Aspiration of any suspicious lumps. If aspirate results are of concern, further steps are taken prior to adoption.
Thyroid Panel (if needed).
Microchip. For identification purposes, all GRRoW foster dogs are microchipped prior to adoption.

LONDON (Reuters) – Britain is not certain to hold a parliamentary vote on taking military action against Islamic State forces in Syria, Defence Secretary Michael Fallon said, as it would become "difficult" if opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn orders his MPs to oppose it.
Fallon, in an interview published in the Sunday Telegraph, said he hoped lawmakers from all parties would consider the arguments, with Labour deeply split on the issue.
Labour leader Corbyn wants his lawmakers to vote against air strikes. But many of his MPs, including some in his top team, are demanding a free vote rather than one in which they are directed to vote against the strikes.
With a slender majority, Conservative Prime Minister David Cameron wants MPs outside his party to back extending air strikes to hit Islamic State in Syria. Britain has already carried out air strikes targeting Islamic State in Iraq.
Cameron's drive to win support in parliament has taken on fresh urgency after the Nov. 13 attacks in Paris in which 130 people were killed. Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attacks.
Asked if a vote on action in Syria was certain to go ahead, Fallon said: "No. We are committed to building a consensus, seeing whether there is a majority there."
Fallon added that it would "certainly make it more difficult" if Corbyn directed his MPs to vote against action in Syria.
Cameron lost a 2013 vote in parliament on carrying out air strikes against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's forces. On that occasion, Labour did not give its lawmakers a free vote and ordered them to vote against the government.
Former Labour Prime Minister Tony Blair's decision to join the U.S.-led Iraq war in 2003, in which 179 British service personnel were killed, remains contentious in Britain after questions were raised over intelligence that was used to justify the invasion.
Corbyn came under further pressure this weekend to allow his MPs to vote freely on military action after his deputy leader Tom Watson told the Independent he favoured a free vote. Finance spokesman John McDonnell, one of Corbyn's closest allies, has also backed a free vote.
Most Labour lawmakers did not support Corbyn's leadership bid but he was backed by an overwhelming majority of grassroots party members.
An opinion poll released on Friday indicated 48 percent of British voters supported extending air strikes to hit Islamic State in Syria, with 30 percent opposed.
The poll, conducted by polling firm Survation for the Daily Mirror newspaper, also showed 49 percent favoured diplomatic and non-military options before committing Britain to anything more than air strikes.

I came across lots of different globes back in school. I liked looking at all of the differences between them. They all had some outdated names on them. I think the Belgian Congo was my favorite. One of my history teachers had a globe that was black with white writing on it. We always joked that it was the earth at night.

I checked out the recently opened Elephant Bar on Thursday night. Stockton's newest bar/restaurant is a fitting spot from which to toast the city's 2007 developments.
I checked out the recently opened Elephant Bar on Thursday night. Stockton's newest bar/restaurant is a fitting spot from which to toast the city's 2007 developments.
The Elephant Bar is a fun room, upscale casual, with pleasing use of space and lighting, a round bar, big dining area, fusion menu and jungly African décor including a full-sized elephant head. It was packed and lively, standing-room only, with servers scurrying through the hubbub. Funny how restaurants, unlike homes, thrived in 2007.
The club scene blossomed, too. Perhaps the coolest new spot is the 500-capacity Stockton Empire Theatre, which fills a need for a mid-sized venue for bands.
Da Candy Shop, an urban dance club for youths, joined other downtown venues, as citywide the scene picked up speed.
Of one July weekend I wrote, "There's an R&B and hip-hop festival at Stockton Arena, jazz at Barnes & Noble, a battle of the bands at the American Legion hall in Lodi, indie bands at the Stockton Empire Theatre, rockabilly at the Blackwater Cafe and two rock shows at Fat's Grill and Bar. ... Social Distortion at Stockton Memorial Civic Auditorium ..."
The arena was finally able to line up a string of big acts: Josh Groban, Ozzy Osbourne, Gwen Stefani, Chris Brown, Avril Lavine and el jefe, the biggest show of all, Vicente Fernandez.
"Are we getting more acts?" Jacqui James, who manages city venues, asked of the fledgling arena. "Are they considering us more? Yes. Is it still a struggle? Yes."
The value of music was shown by a young Manteca man lured by Social Distortion. "I used to live in fear of the city of Stockton," he later wrote in a Manteca paper.
But, "Instead of murderers and thieves, we discovered that there was a whole other world in this strange town," which "has become a vibrant place where you can go out and enjoy yourself ... and not have to worry."
Police Chief Wayne Hose: "There's just a different attitude about not only just downtown, but Stockton." An attitude that Stockton's hard-won potential as an events destination requires responsible management.
"I think it helped us realize we've got to work a little better with people to figure out how you're going to make this work," said Hose, who then broke about every Stockton chief's policy since the Summer of Love.
"We are more tolerant now," he declared.
It might seem unrelated at first, but the approval of the General Plan might help the success of downtown's comeback.
It was little noticed, but the General Plan says new developments must pay for themselves. They must pay the cost of police, fire, underpasses, etc.
This is a huge, smart departure from decades of bad land-use policy of subsidizing sprawl with tax dollars. That policy undermined downtown's ability to compete.
What downtown needs, "First and foremost, more than anything else, is a level playing field," said Steve Pinkerton, the redevelopment director. "That's what the general plan does, I think."
Of course, planning is logical, but its implementation is political. The public will have to watchdog to ensure new developments do not wriggle out of their obligations.
To their credit, Mayor Ed Chavez, most of the council, as well as top city staff, appear serious about this new policy. If so, flash the applause sign.
Other good omens: a downtown business group voted to create an entertainment district; the city created new rules designed to cut red tape and help events happen. Those things may seem wonky, but that is how cities transform from dead to the sort of place where kids can mosh and adults can clink martini glasses.
There's a good chance to build up the scene and complete downtown's resurrection when the mortgage meltdown stops and homebuilding resumes.
"If they build 2,000 a year the next real estate cycle, and 200 a year downtown, we can have quite a downtown," Pinkerton predicted.

The Rebuild: Judging and Boasting sermon notes
Judging and Boasting
Passages: James 4:11-17
Sunday, March 12, 2017
Pastor Paul L. Davis
Key Goals: (Know) Understand that there are enemies to our rebuild. (Feel) Feel compelled to fight for our relationship with God. (Do) Obey the commands of James 4.
Introduction: Have you ever heard of akrasia? It is a philosophical word that describes something that we often do. Take Sue, for example. In January she started a diet in order to lose a few pounds. At work she is confronted with a double chocolate birthday cake brought in by a co-worker. She immediately finds herself drawn to the rich, dark, velvety cake and although she tries to resist, knowing that it will destroy all of her hard work, she eats not one slice but two. Ever been there? Philosophers since before Christ have been fascinated by this behavior. Sue chose to eat two pieces of cake knowing full well that she ought not to eat even one. Ancient Greek philosophers called this akrasia, which literally means a lack of control over one's self.[1] In order for an action to be akratic, the person has to know what they ought to do and then purposefully choose to do otherwise.
This morning James is going to help us rebuild our lives by pointing out how we can be dangerously akratic. Let's read the passage together and get our bearings, then we will look at what I mean.
James 4:11–17[2]
Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. 12 There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?
13 Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit"— 14 yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. 15 Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that." 16 As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. 17 So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.
In our passage this morning, James grapples with arrogance, specifically in us—even though we know we are not God, we act like we are. We do this is two ways. The first, in verses 11-12, is speaking evil of and judging people; the second, in verses 13-17, is presuming upon the future. At first blush, these two issues may not seem like a big deal. But if we look a little closer, we will find that both spring from a deep-rooted arrogance that is antithetical to the gospel.
Everyone knows arrogance is dangerous. We have all heard Proverbs 16:18. Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. Yet even though we know arrogance and pride lead to falls, often we still purposely choose to act in arrogant ways. Classic akrasia. The problem with this is how destructive pride can be. We talk about a "fall" like it is no big deal, when in fact the falls of arrogance are usually devastating. Why? Because arrogance always seems to have a "plus one."
Arrogance plus: another woman
Arrogance plus: alcohol
Arrogance plus: laziness
Arrogance plus: prescription pain medication
Arrogance plus: zero accountability
Let's look at the "plus ones" James warns us of.
Arrogance plus: Slander and judgment (v11-12)
Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. 12 There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?
One of the most important biblical truths about God is that he will judge. He is the creator, the law giver, the determiner of right and wrong, and he will judge every single person after death. Hebrews 9:27…it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment. In 2 Tim 4:1 we are told specifically that it will be Jesus who judges, as the Father has given him all authority (John 5:26-27). This is critical for us to understand. There is no person you have ever met who will not be judged. Every one of us will humbly stand before the Lord and give an account.
Enter arrogance. When a person begins judging another person—and the idea here is separating or evaluating (this person is a believer/good/holy and this person is not)—they first must sit down on God's throne. In their mind, a judgmental person has determined that they omnisciently know a person's heart, motives, and actions. An arrogant person knows that they are not God, yet they willfully choose to sit on his throne and judge the world.
Instead, James warns us to refuse to "katalaleo." Do not speak evil against one another. The Greek word for "speak evil" is katalaleo; it is hostile and malicious speech directed at or against one's neighbor,[3] with its goal being to bring someone down. Arrogant people are known for this. From their lofty perch they look for the faults and flaws in others so that they can bring them down. This is the opposite posture that Jesus wants us to have. In John 8, a woman who was caught in an adulterous act was brought before Jesus. The Pharisees said, "Teacher, this woman has been caught in the act of adultery. Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?" Jesus could have judged her right there, and his judgment would have been perfect. But instead he said, "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her." Every one of the Pharisees walked away, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. Jesus stood up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned[4] you?" She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more."
Arrogant people are so worried about other people's sin that they never humbly deal with their own sin. Jesus never condemned that woman, but he did deal with her sin, didn't he? Humility is looking deeply at the areas in our own life that we need to repent of and not worrying about the faults and failures of others.
Arrogance plus: presumption (v13-17)
Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit"— 14 yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. 15 Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that." 16 As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. 17 So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.
As I read this you might be thinking, "What is the big deal here? It's wrong to make plans for the future?" No, let's go back to our theology. God is not only the creator of the universe, he is its sustainer and sovereign. In other words, nothing happens in God's universe outside of his control. Scripture is abundantly clear on this:
· The LORD has established His throne in the heavens; And His sovereignty rules over all. (Psalm 103:19)
· But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases. (Psalm 115:3)
· For I know that the LORD is great, And that our Lord is above all gods. Whatever the LORD pleases, He does, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps. (Psalm 135:5-6)
If God is sovereign, then we are not. The problem James is addressing is not this man's plans for the future, but his arrogant assumption that he will make it happen. An arrogant person knows they are not God yet they live as if they have his sovereign authority. They don't seek the Lord's will or even acknowledge his presence. They delude themselves into thinking they control their own destiny.
Jesus shared a parable that touched on this in Luke 12:16–21. Jesus said, "The land of a rich man produced plentifully, 17 and he thought to himself, 'What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?' 18 And he said, 'I will do this: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19 And I will say to my soul, "Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry." ' 20 But God said to him, 'Fool! This night your soul is required of you, and the things you have prepared, whose will they be?' 21 So is the one who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God." This man had big plans; he just wasn't in control.
King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon was one of the most powerful monarchs in history. While walking on the roof of his royal palace one evening, he said to himself, "Is this not Babylon the great, which I myself have built as a royal residence by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty?" Daniel 4:31-32 goes on. While the words were still in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, "O King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken: The kingdom has departed from you, 32 and you shall be driven from among men, and your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field. And you shall be made to eat grass like an ox, and seven periods of time shall pass over you, until you know that the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom he will."
One of the most basic lessons to learn in life is: God is God; I am not God! He is sovereign; we are not sovereign. He controls the future; we do not in any way control the future. Humility will naturally flow from a heart that understand this.
How should we be different? If arrogance is the problem, what is the solution?
1. Instead of speaking evil: Let us encourage others with our words. 1 Thessalonians 5:11 Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.
2. Instead of judging: Let us support the growth of those around us. Galatians 6:1–3 Brothers, if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted.
3. Instead of presuming: Let us affirm the Lord's sovereignty as often as we can. Deuteronomy 4:39 Know therefore today, and take it to your heart, that the LORD, He is God in heaven above and on the earth below; there is no other.

Families and Life Insurance
Life insurance is something that you probably don't want to think about, because if you have a life insurance policy for yourself, most of the time no one will see it until you are gone. This is usually something that is very depressing, and therefore many people don't want to think about life insurance. However, when it comes to your family , life insurance is very important because it can provide you with peace of mind, and provide them with the money that they would need if something was to happen to you.
When you have a life insurance policy, it is important to note that even though your name is on the policy you are not going to be the one who benefits from it, unless you end up selling the policy for money, or unless you get sick and your life insurance benefits kick in while you are still alive. When you have life insurance, the people who will benefit form the policy will be your family. Therefore, it is important to think about them when you are deciding on your life insurance policy and seeing what type of policy you would like to have.
First of all, if you are married, your spouse will get the life insurance benefits, as long as she is stated as the beneficiary, or as long as your will claims that she should get the money. Even in cases where there is nothing that says who should get the money, if you are still married your spouse will get the money. If you don't have a spouse, the money will go to your children, depending on the type of policy and what it should be used for.
It is important that you think about what the life insurance policy will be used for by your family as you are taking it out. This will help you to make sure that the policy is enough money and that you'll be able to be satisfied with it. First of all, the life insurance policy will take care of anything that you might leave behind. This will include any bills that you have out, as well as your final expenses. Remember that the cost of final expenses is usually going to be a lot of money, so you want to plan accordingly. Also, if you have medical or hospital bills before you die, your family can use the life insurance money to pay for that as well.
Any money that is left in the life insurance policy after you have died will be used by your spouse and your children.. They can use it to pay their own bills, to pay their mortgage, and even to pay for school. This means that no matter what happens to you, if you have the right life insurance policy, you can go on taking care of your family even if you are no longer able to do so. This is something that is very important because it will help you know while you are alive that you are doing all you can to care for your family.

August 24th: What's On Today's Show
The Political Junkie
Republican front runner Mitt Romney and his more moderate challenger Jon Huntsman remain fixated on New Hampshire. The two are not playing in Iowa though, the state with the first in the nation caucuses. Political junkie Ken Rudin and guest host Rebecca Roberts will talk with Des Moines Register pollster Anne Selzer about how the field is faring in Iowa: With Tim Pawlenty out, Rick Perry in, and the front runner 1200 miles east. Ken and Rebecca will also recap the week in politics, from Michele Bachmann's claim to bring gas down to $2 a gallon to Russ Feingold ruling out a race for Senate or governor.
Early Onset Dementia
Pat Summit, the Hall of Fame coach of the University of Tennessee women's basketball team, revealed that she's been diagnosed with early onset dementia at the age of 59. With the support of the team, she plans to keep working as long as possible. With eight national championships under her belt, she's been credited with helping to improve visibility for women's college sports. Host Rebecca Roberts speaks with an expert on Alzheimer's and dementia to better understand how early onset dementia is identified, and what a diagnosis might mean for patients.
Mormons: Faith And Perceptions
With The Book of Mormon getting rave reviews on Broadway and two presidential candidates who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Mormons again find themselves in the spotlight. Yet, many Americans know little, if anything, about the Mormon faith and much of what they do know comes from myths or misperceptions. The Church launched a media campaign this year that aims to introduce people to the Mormon faith and the lives of everyday Mormons. Guest host Rebecca Roberts talks with San Diego State University professor Joanna Brooks about the faith, experience, perceptions and misperceptions of modern Mormons.
Health From The Pulpit
Mississippi ranks first in rates of deaths from heart disease, second in rates of adult diabetes and adult obesity and ranks last on the list for life expectancy. Many in the Delta region eat fried, greasy foods that are a key part of the traditional cuisine. Reverend Michael Minor, head of the Oak Hill Baptist church in Mississippi is on a mission to change the Delta diet, establishing "No Fry Zones" in churches and teaching members about healthy eating options. Guest host Rebecca Roberts talks with Reverend Minor about his efforts to preach health from the pulpit.

My first exposure to Melechesh was their second album, "Djinn" which distinguished itself by a Black/Death metal mixed with a good dose of Middle-Eastern musical instruments - which would prompt the use of "Mesopotamian Black Metal" to describe the band's music. This first release here is not as distinctive as "Djinn" was, since only a few songs have that Middle-Eastern stuff thrown into them - some more obvious than the others, some where it's pretty discreet. Note that this 2001 re-issue does mention "Mesopotamian Black Metal", most likely to catch on "Djinn" momentum since it was one of the highly-acclaimed albums that year.
That said, this doesn't take anything away from this debut album which, Middle-Eastern instrumentation aside, is quite a good Black Metal album in itself. On that side, this is overall pretty much your typical BM - fast-paced (but not Setherial-fast) with screechy vocals. I can hear some of you say "Boring! Been there, done that!", but Melechesh's music is quite polished and diversified, with good riffs aplenty and some damn catchy melodies (yes, melodies - but without earning the ill-fated "Melodic BM" monicker.) Now, today this might sound "used" to some, but remember that the original release was in 1996.
The addition of the Middle-Eastern elements is what put Melechesh on the map, and they did a surprisingly good job at it - let's face it, many bands totally screw up the inclusion of different music and/or instruments in metal. Some will scream "gimmick" or "overrated", and to them I can only say one thing: Just listen to something else then. :) Melechesh have incorporated sounds that are about as far away from metal as you can get, yet managed to remain undoubtedly metal, no doubt possible. I can't say the same for many, and I do mean many bands. Alright, enough said. For a good slice of well-executed Black Metal with an unusual twist, this is a sure bet. This thing is stuck in my CD player.

The second blog celebrating Lutosławski's centenary takes us to Warsaw for performances of the Symphony No 3, Partita and Chain 2
Last week, in Warsaw, I enjoyed a rare and treasurable opportunity, literally to retrace the steps of my student self. As I wrote in a tribute piece in the January print edition of Gramophone and in the introduction to this series of blog entries, I had the great pleasure of knowing Witold Lutosławski (1913-1994) for the last five years of his life, having first met this charming, gentle, inspiring man at the 1988 Warsaw Festival.
A quarter of a century later, I am back in Warsaw for the first time, older and perhaps wiser too. I am now far too long in the tooth to participate in the kind of revolutionary fervour I encountered back in 1988 and, in any case, I am not here at the suggestion of opponents of the regime, hopping from coffee shop to coffee shop, truffling for precious Melodiya LPs and snatching a few hours of sleep each night on a lumpy sofa. I am the honoured guest of the admirable Adam Mickiewicz Institute, which works tirelessly to 'promote Polish culture around the world and actively participate in international cultural exchange'.
The city is under a foot of snow and bitterly cold, but the Poles are hardened to this and respond in a business-like manner: unlike back home, the roads are gritted and, by and large, the pavements are sanded or salted too. I arrive, late, in the bitterly wintry evening. A taxi awaits and I am rapidly delivered to a pleasant hotel, as a latest dusting of snow descends. Had I been a guest of the regime in 1988, I dare say there would have been a persistent chaperone awaiting me, but in 2013 I simply dump my case, perform swift ablutions, don my coat and scarf again, and head out to find an agreeable bar for an hour or two.
In the interim, a splendid bag appears in my room, bearing a large facsimile of Lutosławski's distinctive signature, containing a handsome and freshly-minted book about him, replete with anecdotes and photographs, the new 8-CD edition of all his major works for ensemble, a cheery guide book to Poland and its customs, an itinerary, and a comprehensive and authoritative looking DVD and book package about his friend Andrzej Panufnik.
The next morning, in the lobby of the hotel, I meet the troika of leading experts on Lutosławski from the English-speaking world: the amiable, Pulitzer Prize-winning American composer Steven Stucky (whose book about Lutosławski was published in 1981) and the writers and musicologists Adrian Thomas and Charles Bodman Rae (the latter being author of a later musical biography of the composer, helpfully revised after his death). All three of them can claim to have known Lutosławski longer and better than I ever did and there is a splendid, competitive yet genteel edge as anecdotes, opinions and insights are exchanged. My principal trump card of having been present when history was made in September 1988 gets me through – just – but I am definitely the d'Artagnan here and no musketeer.
We visit the city's splendid Chopin museum (its death room a characteristically intense and gripping Polish highlight) and we muse on whether the Lutosławski home in Eastern Poland (currently a natural history museum) might ever achieve a similar level of glory, in honour of its most celebrated scion. I find myself talking to the quietly radiant Camilla Jessel Panufnik, devoted widow of Sir Andrzej Panufnik, who studied and graduated with Lutosławski and spent the war years playing piano duets with him in Warsaw's cafes and bars, until the Uprising and the violent German response ended all that.
At a well-attended press conference, a brilliant young software expert, who also happens to be a composer, unveils an app for smart phones which is, by any token, a remarkable labour of love. This is designed to guide visitors around all the sites of significance to Lutosławski. Quixotically, it can even lead anyone who is sufficiently intrigued and ambulant on a guided tour of the embassies of all the countries where Lutosławski performed.
We learn that, in 1955, the composer grew weary of living 200 yards from a loudspeaker that blared out 'street music' and wrote to the prime minister asking for a bigger flat, in a more agreeable environment. There is also a glorious piece of simultaneous mis-translation, worthy of Joe Orton, when Lutosławski's famous remark about musical conservatism is rendered as: 'Sputnik is circling the Earth but we are still playing faggots'. Thereafter the word 'bassoon' is employed unusually emphatically by all the interpreters whenever that particular wind instrument is cited.
After a robust lunch we visit the composer's grave, next to that of his compatriot, friend and early champion Witold Rowicki. The slab is grey and imposing, the cross above it black and simple. There are flowers, many flowers, and a beautiful banner from Anne Sophie Mutter, Lutosławski's sometime muse, who is to play at the centenary concert in the evening, referring, poetically and touchingly, to the sense of Bewunderung (wonderment) that the composer induced in her. The head of the Polish Composers' Union speaks so intensely that I wonder if he might start to cry, then Steven Stucky adds a few well-chosen words on behalf of the English-speaking contingent. Cemeteries in the freezing snow have a poignancy and a stark drama that is entirely their own and, for a moment or two, we are all lost in thought. Then we tramp back through the snow and slush to our coach.
Returning to the Philharmonie in the evening after almost 25 years brings a gratifying wave of nostalgia. This time it falls to Antoni Wit to conduct the Warsaw Philharmonic in Symphony No 3. He does so with passion and the performance could hardly be less like that of the Berliner Philharmoniker and Simon Rattle at last year's Proms, who treated it as a wild amalgam of chamber music and a concerto for orchestra. Wit's way is bigger-boned and more muscular. I am not sure which 'take' I prefer, but the piece is big enough to emerge unscathed and impress either way.
After the interval comes Anne-Sophie Mutter, looking and sounding amazing. She plays the hybrid piece Lutosławski created for her – beginning with the orchestration of his Partita for violin and orchestra, and ending with Chain 2, the two linked by the ghostly, delicate interlude that he composed specifically for this purpose. The interlude seems to have neither a beginning nor an end, and it is easy to understand why Stanisław Skrowaczewski likes to play it as a piece in its own right, but twice, in immediate succession.
That clear, steady Mutter tone really is most distinctive and it suits Lutosławski's idiom perfectly. It is little wonder she became the muse for the violin concerto upon which he was working at the time of his death. I feel sure we were denied a masterpiece. At the end of the concert, awards and prizes as well as flowers are exchanged and Anne-Sophie Mutter is gracious as she runs out of hands to carry all the items that are bestowed upon her. In a speech that combines substance, economy and grace, she praises the remarkable combination that Lutosławski possessed, of brilliant intellect, superb compositional technique and a warm and generous heart. She speaks for many in the hall.
The event has been a triumph and it is a pleasure to break bread (and share a few vodkas) afterwards with the brilliant young team from the Institute, who clearly live and breathe all this. Well, the Lutosławski year has begun and this special blog has begun too. The next stop is my home city of London, where the Philharmonia launches its 'Woven Words' festival, celebrating Lutosławski, this coming Wednesday, January 30. This occasion too will be nostalgic for me – the first time I shall have heard Krystian Zimerman play the Piano Concerto live since that Polish premiere in 1988. It promises to be a wonderful occasion and an emotional one too.
It means so much that the centenary of this wonderful man is being celebrated across the world, that this music plays on and therefore he too lives on, in the music and through it. I hope this blog will inspire at least a few readers to renew their acquaintanceship with Lutosławski's music – or even to listen to it live for the first time.

The Schoolgirl Murder Case (1974), Colin Wilson's twelfth novel, is the first in a projected series of a dozen police procedural novels, although only two were completed (Stanley (2006), 8). Wilson's detective, Chief-Superintendent Gregory Saltfleet, bears some similarities to Jules Maigret, the famous sleuth created by Georges Simenon (1903-89), and to Inspector George Gently in the novels of Alan Hunter (1922-2005). In contrast to Wilson's bohemian protagonists, such as Gerard Sorme in Ritual in the Dark (1960), Harry Preston in Adrift in Soho (1961) or Kit Butler in The Black Room (1971), Saltfleet is a salaried professional, like Samuel Kahn, the psychiatrist in The Killer (1970), and he …

Loving The Lord With Everything - Maddy Hosick
As my time at Link Year continues to dwindle, I find myself reflecting on all the different ways the Lord has grown me this year. He has worked in ways that were quite unexpected and He has taught me how necessary it is for me to wait on His timing. I often try and plan things out and get frustrated when He doesn't respond how I would like Him to. I have learned so much about remaining faithful to the Lord even when I'm not "feeling" His presence. My faith should not be based off of my emotions or if I feel like pursuing the Lord, but rather should be based on the truth. The truth is that Jesus came down to Earth, lived a sinless life, and died a brutal death on a Roman cross for my sin. He conquered death by rising three days later. I find myself wondering how I can live a life that loves God with all of my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Matthew 22:37 says, "Jesus replied, 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'" Jesus said that this is the first and greatest commandment, but I find myself failing miserably at loving the Lord well. Even on my best days I cannot love the Lord with all of my heart. The good news is that the Lord still loves me and will never love me more than He does right now. His love is steadfast and perfect. He knows everything about me, including all of my sin. As a matter of fact He knows me better than I know myself, and yet He still loves me. He's not in love with a future version of me, because He is in love with me now! So what do I do with this? I focus on all He has done for me and His great love and live to glorify Him, not by walking around on egg shells trying to not mess up.
I am so thankful for the lessons I've learned at Link Year, and I am so excited to keep learning and getting to know the Lord for myself.

The last Wildlife Wednesday post was a month ago. So it's time for an update. Let me do the unhappy news first.
Older Daughter took in a fawn that was in seriously dangerous shape. Even with vet care (more than once), this baby did not make it. Before she died, she was joined by another fawn. This one has some type of brain damage. Older is working hard to keep this one alive while waiting to see if the neurological problem will subside. It's more probable that this one won't make it than that he will. As much as Older tries not to become attached, it always breaks her heart to lose one of her wildlife babies. She did some research this Spring and discovered that fawns in rehab are one of the most difficult to keep alive. Heartbreaking.
Let's move on to happier news. The last time I posted, Older had seven baby raccoons and two starling babies. The starlings were close in age, but one matured more quickly. That one moved to an outdoor enclosure and was eventually successfully released.
The slightly younger starling didn't seem to mature at a normal rate. But it finally reached the point of being able to move to an outdoor enclosure where it is learning to hunt for food.
Of the seven raccoons, three have moved to the outdoor raccoon enclosure. They are learning to climb and hide and splash around in water (which they love). The remaining four are still inside, but are almost ready to move out.
Just on Monday night of this week, Older received a call from a woman who says her husband accidentally killed a mom opossum and some of her babies. There were four surviving offspring. First opossums of the year.
And speaking of opossums . . . Older has released many a possum. She usually never knows what happens to them. And it's possible that this was NOT one of hers. But it's probably likely that it was. One evening, when their dogs were outside in the fenced-in part of their yard, Older and her husband heard the dogs barking a panicked sort of bark. They went running to the door and looked out. And there was a mom opossum with a little extra. They talked about the possibility that this was a release who had returned with one of her own. They also talked about how, in the wild, even though opossum moms have very large litters, only a couple manage to survive. Still – it was nice to see a mom opossum making it out there. Older was a beaming possum-grandmom.
See you next week.
