Looking Inward / Looking Outward: Part 1
This scene from Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei takes what Lucky Star is doing a step further. Here the trope being parodied is the cliche of the onsen resort episode which always involves one tedious example of someone going into the wrong bath and getting embarrassed. Here the situation is turned on its head as only the male teacher is embarrassed whereas his female students are uniformly unbothered. It ends with him feeling that his masculinity has been debased by the unflinching response of his students (foreshadowed cleverly by the distinctly feminine way he is shown getting into the bath to begin with). They top it off with Kafuka actually parodying Lucky Star itself and by parodying something that is in itself a parody, Studio Shaft stake their claim to being teh no.1 133t p05tm0d3rn15tz, until someone can parody them.
Of course, the critical rejoinder to this is that regardless of the irony and self-parody, knowing that your gag is cheap and lazy doesn't make it any less cheap and lazy. The creators also can't stop fans from consuming their work unironically if they choose to. A friend of mine who I usually trust to give me the heads up on any new trends or memes in otaku culture alerted me recently to what he called "the most dangerous anime ever" (NSFW) and suggested that he felt that the show in question, Strike Witches, represents the birth pains of a fourth generation of otaku. Whether this is true or not is hard to say, but at least it represents the extreme development of much of what third generation moe culture represents. The characters themselves are designs constructed directly from the moe database complete with cat ears and tails. None of them wear trousers or skirts ever, for reasons spuriously rationalised as having something to do with the mechanical propellors that they attach to their legs in order to turn them into anthropomorphised representations of World War 2 fighter aircraft.
In Gainax's Otaku no Video from 1991, based in part on Gainax co-founder Okada's own life, an early scene showing the main character, Ken, undergoing his otaku training specifies Star Trek, Doctor Who and John Wyndham's Day of the Triffids as required knowledge. On the other hand, in Strike Witches every aspect of the show is designed to reflect some recycled aspect of Japanese anime culture. The story is entirely subservient to the database and the database is something that has been compiled purely by refining fetish elements from previous anime. Inevitably, as fans turn inwards, the creators of the shows follow them and in all creative aspects Strike Witches shows precisely the kind of inward looking tendency that Okada seems to be criticising in his book.
The otaku's rejoinder to that would be that Okada is criticising them for failing to do something that they never intended in the first place and that he is merely confirming that he is out of touch with what is really happening in fan culture. Putting aside the disturbingly extravagant panty fetishism for a moment, the whole girls=aircraft aspect is a radical and interesting reassembly of two standard base elements. Otaku aren't confusing these girls with real live females and would think you were weird if you implied otherwise. These girls aren't even meant to represent human females: they are a nominally female creation from an entirely different evolutionary model -- children of the database, if you will. In the modern otaku's view, Okada is like Tem Ray, the scientist who created the Gundam Mobile Suit and witnessed its birth, but who ends up a madman, crawling around a junkyard and making useless suggestions to improve a machine he no longer understands.
Part 2 is now up.

I really can't divine authorial intent or creative process so I'm skeptical about your take on how the shows you mentioned speak about how lazy or unoriginal the creators are.
That said, it is an interesting theory, how one can just slap together a bunch of popular memes and tropes, wink at the audience and profit.
What I think is that these shows will hit some kind of peak - at the moment I can think of Kannagi as the wink wink, nudge nudge otaku panderer du jour. But the jokes will get old, as most jokes do.
What are the unironic, non-self parodying shows that are truly humorous in your opinion (that contain the minimal amount of reference to other anime or otaku culture)?

I think laziness isn't so much a matter of authorial intent, it's more a matter of authorial talent. The example I link to from Lucky Star is a bad joke, albeit a useful one for illustrating my point about how that particular kind of humour works (although I chose it because it was the only one I could find, not because I liked or disliked it).
Thinking critically (although remember this article wasn't initially intended as a critical piece), a lazy writer makes a joke that repeats a predictable trope in a funny voice and the audience says, "Oh, I recognise that! It's like XXX anime! That's funny!" and the show's creators think, "Ahh, job well done". A less lazy writer is a bit more devious.
Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei is sometimes pretty devious and I like it for that, but the jokes fly so thick and fast that inevitably a lot of them fell flat with me. The one I link to here is sadly another example of one that I think is pretty lame.
I think both Lucky Star and SayZetSen do that sort of self-referential humour quite well sometimes (the latter more often than the former) and they both also spend a lot of time just pandering, which is especially sad in SayZetSen's case, since it initially seemed to set itself up as an antidote to that sort of thing.
Kannagi is a show I've so far avoided seeing, but if I feel strong enough some time in the future, I might give it a go.
"What are the unironic, non-self parodying shows that are truly humorous in your opinion"
Tough one. Honestly, I have a pretty low opinion of Japanese comedy to begin with, so I might be a bad person to be talking about this.
However, I think Niea_7 is brilliant; it definitely plays with otaku references (the character Chiaki exists largely for such purpose) but it manages to balance social comment, character-based humour and an all-pervading sense of pathos and alienation very well without resorting to cheap otaku gags for the most part.
- 10 February 2009 at 12:29
Hmmm, laziness as an occurrence resulting from lack of talent rather than hard work and guts. I'm not sure I agree, but I'll go with you to a degree.
Somehow, I feel that Lucky Star has a lot to say. I either be overestimating my own intelligence and/or reading waaaay too much into the text, but it's one of the few shows I can watch randomly every day (and I'm not alone in this).
None of what it says changes my life or belief system in any significant way, but I do credit it for cleverness. I didn't feel that the jokes were particularly cheap.
I'm thinking now that this is a case of the trope called 'first girl wins.' If I see subsequent shows using the same humor, I feel that I wouldn't be as accommodating.

Lucky Star does have a lot to say, yeah. It's a near perfect example of the way anime has changed from a modernist to a postmodernist art form. In the example from Lucky Star that I link to above, the interesting thing is not the gag itself, which is the sort of typical anime joke everyone's seen a thousand times, but the fact that Konata recognises the fan service and points it out. Kyoto Animation know that the joke about Miyuki's tits is a transparent excuse for some fan service, and they deliberately put it in precisely so they could poke fun at the cliche. My problem with Lucky Star is just that it doesn't go far enough. Too often it just seems to point out a common trope or cliche and leave it at that. It makes an interesting comparison with a show like Spaced, which plays similar games with pop culture parodies but which immerses itself in the jokes much more.
That said, I agree that Lucky Star is an easy show to just pick up an start watching at any given moment. A friend of mine calls this type of show "healing anime", which I think is a good phrase.

Lessons in Self-Acceptance
by Yumi Tomsha | Sep 30, 2014 | coping with fear, face fear, pure obsessional ocd, self-acceptanceMy journey with Purely Obsessional OCD has been marked by surprises.

There is something my wife and I are trying that you might be interested in trying yourself with your family and friends. But first know this, what do you think about and what you talk about expands whether you like it or not. You can throw a monkey wrench into that expansion by refocusing, diversion, mindfulness and ERP work, which the majority of us do anyway. But, there's another way to stop the expansion of OCD negativity. We have decided from time to time to proclaim a "no ocd day".
Now that doesn't mean I'm not going to get symptoms and work through those symptoms, but what it does mean is I'm not going to talk about it for the day. I'm going to give my mind a rest and my friends and family a rest from hearing me bitching about how awful it is. If what we think about expands, and it does, not talking about ocd for one day from time to time, is a relief for me and definitely for my wife, family, friends and even people that know me at the grocery store. I'm not kidding. We don't have to be defined by ocd, we are not ocd. I'm actually going to work at doing this more often. It's all part of taking my power back. Ya' know? JC 💙P.S.

However, it is vital to always strike a balance while wearing ruffles for they break the line between the girly girl and the fashion-forward look. Avoid matching a ruffle skirt to a ruffle top choose opposing vibes for the average day mature look. Flaunt the ruffle skirt and spruce up your fashion taste.

How Can Beard Implants Help To Eliminate Scratchy Hairs?
For many, a patchy beard is an issue that they face regularly, and it can cause a lack of confidence and irritation to the skin. Though this can be prevented by applying oils and taking supplements, some forms of hair loss require more drastic measures to resolve. In this article, we will be looking into some of the ways that a beard transplant can help to boost confidence an eliminate the feeling of scratchy hairs.
Helps to Remove Patchiness
One of the biggest benefits of a beard transplant is the removal of scratchy hairs. This helps to fill in the gaps and promote the growth of strong hair that can be styled in any way that you wish. Whether you decide to undergo a procedure such as a beard transplant Turkey can offer or you opt for a procedure in the UK, this can all help to eliminate scratchy hair and maintain growth for a prolonged period.
Can Help Aid the Growth of Natural Hair
In addition to it removing the patchiness, a beard transplant can also to aid in the growth of healthy hair. With the follicle rejuvenated by the implanted hair, you are stimulating blood flow to the area helping to encourage the growth of not only the new hair but the existing hair in the area. When the hair begins to grow, you can then apply elements such as beard oils to remove any discomfort and further stimulate the area. However, it is important to ensure that you are not allergic to any ingredients as this can lead to further irritation.
Promotes Confidence
A healthy beard is also the perfect way to boost confidence as you can feel better about yourself. When experiencing patchiness, this can lead to discomfort and even acne that can lead to many feeling uncomfortable. This can then have an effect on your confidence – not only in your career, but also in your personal life, which can prevent you from succeeding in a number of different areas. Though there are a number of supplements that can be taken to help with this, a beard transplant is a more direct way of achieving these results.
Minimal Recovery Time
Though you will experience some discomfort as the affected area begins to heal, the recovery time is very minimal. With only a few days of redness and swelling, you can return to work after as little as a week. The new hair that grows is likely to eliminate the patches in the beard – this can then be treated with beard oil or other products to soften the hairs and eliminate the feeling of scratchy hair. Additionally, you can style this any way that you wish, allowing you to benefit from a long flowing beard or a short beard. The choice is completely up to you and your own individual style.
With this in mind, there are a number of ways that a beard transplant can benefit the hair on your face as well as reduce the irritation that is often associated with the hair growing in. Will you be opting for a hair transplant in the near future?

The Archaeology of Knowledge ; And, The Discourse on Language
書林, 1972 - Philosophy - 245 pages
Madness, sexuality, power, knowledge-are these facts of life or simply parts of speech? In a series of works of astonishing brilliance, historian Michel Foucault excavated the hidden assumptions that govern the way we live and the way we think. The Archaeology of Knowledge begins at the level of 'things said' and moves quickly to illuminate the connections between knowledge, language, and action in a style at once profound and personal.

Where do you keep information like your will, tax returns and investments? Chances are, they're in a file or safe. These aren't necessarily bad places, but they aren't the most secure ones, either. Files can be stolen or lost, and even safes can be stolen or destroyed. Consider keeping permanent electronic copies of information in a strong, secure cloud service instead.
Businesses Have Trusted Cloud Technology for Years
Businesses have been using cloud services for years to electronically store information and keep backup copies. Cloud storage takes electronic files, like the ones on your computer, and transfers them through the Internet to super-secure electronic servers that hold large amounts of information. It saves them a lot on space and storage costs. They also know cloud services keep their records safe from hacking or accidental loss.
Businesses also like that cloud storage lets them access their records from virtually any Internet connection. Cloud storage lets users get their information through laptops, desktops, tablets and smartphones. Passwords can be changed as often as you want, and many services provide periodic reminders to change them for an additional security layer.
In recent years, cloud-based backup and security services like Mozy have focused on the individual market. While you may already scan important papers and back them up on your computer and external drive, these steps have limits, including equipment breakdown. And like many businesses, you may find that you need to access your information from other locations besides your home office. It isn't just papers, either: you can store digital photos, for example, on a cloud service and download them to your smartphone to show others.
Lock up Your Information in the Air
What's the difference between cloud storage facilities and your computer?
- Cloud servers hold a lot more information and save your computer space.
- They back up copies of all information they receive, so nothing is permanently lost.
- They are constantly maintained and upgraded to avoid system breakdowns and malicious break-ins.
- Their security is far better than anything on the market for individuals.
Best of all, you can get your information back to look over, update and send back at any time. All you need is an Internet connection on any device.
Cloud Storage is Better Than Ever
You've probably heard about credit card security breaches at big box stores, banks and other places you would think have the best security possible. To be fair, the biggest banks and stores are targeted by hackers, security expert Kevin Streff tells the online financial planning service LearnVest. "If you're hacker," he explains, "and you can go after a bank that has 1,000 customer records or a million records … where are you going to choose to invest your time?" It's not going to be on an individual.
Streff also stresses the importance of password management. As he and just about every security expert says, change your passwords often. Don't use the same one for different services. Password management tools like LastPass are helpful for this purpose.
It's also important to remember that security is not a bank's primary business. But cloud storage is all about security. These shops are where the most cutting-edge security work is developed, tested and put in place. Mozy, for example, has military-grade security, which means it has passed the strictest tests for online security. As one tech review site, TopTen notes, "Mozy keeps your data safe and secure."

HC is hearing a petition challenging the legality of the Delhi Rent Control Act on the ground it is an archaic peace of legislation violating fundamental rights of landlords.
While seeking records of the properties, located mostly in prime areas of the city, the landlords who own them receive a pittance of rent as the DRC Act 1957 places a bar on increasing rent from tenants, the court remarked it seems "tenants are smiling and landlords are crying" because of the law.
Appearing for an association of women landlords, advocate Shobha Aggarwal also drew the court's attention to a chart of minimum wage rate in Delhi.
She pointed out that about 50% of properties under rent control fetch a monthly rent less than even the daily minimum wage of an unskilled worker pegged at Rs 353 per day.
The petitioners also claimed that municipal corporations have admitted many properties in City Zone, Sadar Paharganj Zone, Karol Bagh Zone and Civil Lines don't pay tax. While the owners cannot afford to pay the tax as the rent received is negligible, the tenants also refuse to pay fearing that once they pay house-tax the property may come out of rent control.
The landlords claimed one of the culprits for financial crises of the corporations is their failure to extract house tax from such properties. They have alleged that tenants protected under the Act are determined by historical accident and not by need due to the peculiar nature of the legislation. "In fact, the poor are not getting any benefit out of the Act."
The petitioners had earlier argued that even after the 1988 Amendment, the object of expediting disputes between landlords and tenants was not achieved and cited a chart showing that, as of December 2014, 10.15% of all civil cases pending before the district courts in Delhi were as a result of the DRCA.

Am I excited? Hell NO.
I'm sorry to start this post with such negativity but I'm gonna be somehow positive in writing this post.
I was an English teacher long time ago. Back in 2007 I taught for about 6 or 7 months. Teaching the girls was so much fun, talking with them about what they like. Lowering your mentality to theirs and sharing their likes and dislikes was such a great experience but the management and the English department was really miserable, they made me hate my life. I swear I used to wake up very depressed and cry all the way to school in my car. I looked miserable. Anyways, that was long time ago, now I'm back to teaching again. Why? Because there is no option.
I started teaching again last May 2013. I only taught for 3 weeks and only 1 class. It was pretty good even though students were out of control because the school year was about to end. I can say many things have been changed. Now, teachers teach only 2 classes not 3 as it used to be. Grading has been changed, it became much easier. Everything became much better. And the school I'm teaching at right now is good and very understanding. But now a new crazy principal has joined the team. She changed the time of leaving school from 1pm to 1:15pm. I honestly can't comprehend what's the use of the extra 15 minutes. If you don't have last period you leave at 1pm after 10 minutes from the beginning of the 7th period. Why she wants us in the school for 15 minutes extra? WHHHYYYY? This really pissed me off, I want our old principal back 😦
Teaching methods have changed alot in many schools but in our school it haven't. Many schools especially the new ones started using the iPad in teaching the students, but in ours I haven't seen anyone use it. I had a quick meeting with my bestie who's also an intermediate teacher. She gave a quick idea on how to teach using the ipad. That I have to buy a mini projector and download few apps which she gave me. Her school gave her a course and taught her how to use the ipad and she did the same with me. She explained to me that it made her life much easier, less expensive (no need to print flash cards) and it attracted the students' attentions and made them love the period.
Currently, I'm looking for pocket projectors that can be handy and not that expensive. Found few on Blink, one is kinda expensive and the other affordable. Today, I checked the website again and found the affordable one is out of stock. My kinda luck But anyways, Hawally is full of these stuff so I'm planning to go there tomorrow and search for one so I can start practicing on it. Don't wanna start my 1st day with my students laughing on for not knowing how to use the projector 😛
I've downloaded about 5 teaching applications on my ipad and I'm waiting for the projector to start using them. Not that I can't use them now but it will be better with the projector. The apps are very easy to use and they can make your teaching life easier and save more time to spend with your family and friends.
Hope this year will be a great one, full of excitement and adventures with my new studenst. And hope this new principle will loosen up a bit and make our lives easier.

November 5, 2015
And so it ends in November, with a half moon rising out beyond center field and the winds of winter building from the west. Baseball's long, unforgiving, and grueling forced march of a campaign, the 111th of the modern era, ends with the Kansas City Royals – representing the heartland – true champs.
They are as worthy as it gets, for they play this game the right way – by the book and fundamentally sound – and with much verve and little bombast. Everything's up to date in Kansas City!
In the end there's controversy, but New York's Mets need apologize to no one. This thing was over before Matt Harvey answered the bell in the ninth inning of the fifth game. It would have been swell if he'd pulled it off, but ultimately irrelevant. It was written on the wind, as they used to like to say out there where the west begins. Kansas City was significantly the better team. End of controversy!
And so we bear on.
Increasingly for many, the end of the World Series marks the beginning of a season of potentially greater import: when the hot stove burns and the bartering booms. That's especially the case if your dog was never in the hunt in the season just past and you tuned out of the Fall Classic before it even began. Such ranks this year included, once again, Red Sox Nation.
Are championships won or lost not in October, but in November and December? That's the conventional wisdom, although more often than not it proves to be a grand illusion. Just ask the citizens of the Nation, currently pondering with familiar bitterness last off-season's headline acquisitions that proved to be landmark follies.
Misunderstood, foolish, vulgar, over-rated, or otherwise, the free-agent fire sale is a heckuva show and one that keeps baseball a sizzling topic that dominates the precious media well into the winter. In this now familiar plunge from the sublime to the ridiculous, we leave the ball fields gated and pad-locked for the winter and descend into the shadowy boardrooms and backrooms where the dealmakers hang out, scheming, quibbling, badgering in the game within the game that's come to fascinate us through recent late autumns and early winters.
Hot Stove seasons have never been hotter. But might that be about to change, or at least be modified? Methinks it's possible.
Overall, this year's free agent crop is thinner than usual, so we may not see the orgiastic signing sprees of recent years that reached such ludicrous extremes just last winter. Which gives the usual pigeons – think Yankees, Red Sox, Phils, Nats, Rangers, Chisox, Dodgers, et al. – less of an excuse for making fools of themselves.
There are several reasons for this likely switch, all good. Several of the most prominent of the about-to-be- liberated who seemed prime candidates to make epic scores only a couple of weeks ago have already suffered from sudden sieges of market anxiety. That list is headed by David Price, Johnny Cueto, Yoenis Cespedes, Daniel Murphy, and maybe even Zack Greinke.
How much did Price's spotty playoff performance with the Blue Jays cost him? I'm betting roughly $50 million, although that doesn't mean some sucker won't blink and still pay him more than he's worth.
When he was tearing the National League apart in late summer and being proclaimed the Mets' savior, demands in Queens that the team open its vaults for Cespedes were downright hostile. But after a quirky post-season – fairly predictable in the opinion of those he formerly toiled for – his value may have receded to where it bottomed-out when he burnt his bridges in Boston a year ago: enough to command a Rick Porcello in trade, but no more.
Cueto was sometimes good and sometimes horrid. Did his erratic moments balance out? Greinke reportedly is about to bail out on his Dodger contract that pays him $24 million a year in a gamble for a longer deal for at least $30 million per. But at 32, with mileage on his fastball already fading, might he be overplaying his hand? Wouldn't you just love to see that.
These are but some of the more intriguing questions this now officially under way post-season poses. The whims of the market are desperate and cruel. Murphy of the Mets was riding high on his magic carpet, looking every bit the equivalent of this year's Pablo Sandoval with his improbable power hitting seemingly brinking him on a marvelous score, maybe up to a hundred million. Then, late on Halloween night, a slow roller squibbed by the Royals' Lorenzo Cain squiggled under his glove, and it was as if a giant needle had instantly punctured poor Murph's lofty balloon, making him more another Billy Buckner. On the contemporary baseball market, a player's value can rise as swiftly as a penny stock, and fall even faster.
But it's not only the celebrated who look more questionable than usual this Hot Stove season. The entire crop is tainted. The usually solid second tier of proven and more reasonably priced role players and journeymen also looks weaker than usual. And the long list of hangers-on and want-a-bes, most of them near the end of the line and some beyond it, has never been longer or thinner. Epic contracts are going to be harder to come by this time, and turning your team around overnight tougher than ever. Still, one bets there'll be few bargains.
There are decent players in this year's pool, without doubt. But there's not a one of them you can't raise legitimate doubts about, especially for the money they'll certainly command.
Chris Davis has awesome power to go with his 200 whiffs a year, and he's also big and slow, and such players age fast after 30, no matter how much his agent – Scott Boras – argues to the contrary. Once a terrific catching prospect, Matt Wieters is now hurt most of the time. Can you accept Justin Upton's attitude, Jason Heyward's inconsistencies, or Ian Desmond's steadily declining batting average? Alex Gordon is highly likeable but 32.
Among pitchers available, Jordon Zimmerman has lately been sliding backwards and Scott Kazmir only excels for non-contenders. Is Marco Estrada at 32 a one-year wonder? John Lackey is 37. Colby Lewis is 36. And Cliff Lee is 37, and cooked. On the other hand, A.J. Dickey is 41 and Bartolo Colon is 43 and both, like Lackey, are still worth a year's deal. Of the several dozen relievers available, only submariner Darren O'Day compels lusty pursuit. Maybe lefty Rich Hill, ex of the BoSox, may prove one of the few bargains. Who knows?
It's a tainted lot. For my money, the best buy in this market may prove to be a well-traveled 35-year-old utility player with a .265 lifetime batting average who excels at second but is a complete pro glad to play anywhere and at a reasonable price. That would be Ben Zobrist.
The key to this business is not so much to chase hotshots for hideous sums creating headlines, but to seek solid players on reasonable terms who meet legitimate needs. Zobrist is a perfect example. You can expect the Yankees, who most prize and most need such a player, to be ardent suitors. But then any team that fancies itself a contender would happily find a place for Ben Zobrist in its scheme of things, with the Royals, for whom he proved the last piece in their puzzle this memorable season, leading that chase quite merrily.
One suspects this thinking may just be in the process of becoming the conventional wisdom all over the game, even in places where such wimpy, if wise, behavior has long been disdained. Disenchantment with high-priced, free agent laggards is understandably acute in Boston, where embarrassment over last winter's dumb spending spree persists. The Yankees began backing away last year after spending wantonly, as long had been their custom, in the Ellsbury-Beltran-Tanaka festival the winter before. Even the Dodgers, they of the idiotic $315 million payroll, are expressing reservations.
No doubt they all noticed that no team in this autumn's Final Four ranked in MLB's list of top-10 payrolls and that the most significant free agent to cavort in the World Series itself was the Mets' modestly priced Curtis Granderson. Nor did they miss noting that the pitching staffs of both teams were entirely the product of their assiduously cultivated farm systems.
Might this be a message that's sinking in? We'll see! Welcome to the Hot Stove season. And enjoy!

"What is man, that You should exalt him, that You should set Your heart on him, that You should visit him every morning, and test him every moment?" Job 7:17-18
Who are we?
Job asked this with belabored passion after months of being tested of God. "Just who is mankind that You uplift him, set Your heart on him, visit him every morning and inspect him continually?"
I would say mankind is certainly most unique in God's eye. Stop processing for a minute and think about it. God exalts us above all His earthly creations, giving us power over every living thing. We are His cherished beings. We are accompanied every day with His presence. He hovers over us like a concerned mother, taking note of our status.
Now . . . why would He do all that? He loves us! As we go about our daily lives, perhaps we should use a lot more reciprocity. Exalt Him in our lives, set our hearts on and in Him, commune with Him every day and continually focus our spirits on Him.
How about it? Will you join with us?
Psalm 148
Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
Praise him, all his angels: praise him, all his hosts.
Praise him, sun and moon: praise him, all stars of light.
Praise him, heavens of heavens, and waters that be above the heavens.
Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.
He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
Praise the Lord from the earth, dragons, and all deeps,
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapors; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
Let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
He also exalts the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise the Lord.

Italy is not known for its quality sparkling wines. Prosecco and the sparkling wines of Asti are pleasant enough, but both are produced using the inexpensive Charmat method, in which secondary fermentation takes place in large stainless steel tanks rather than in the bottle. With limited yeast contact, a fruity nose, and loose, plodding bubbles, it does not make great sparkling wine.
The only region in Italy known for making sparkling wine in the traditional method is Franciacorta in Eastern Lombardy. And this is a relatively recent development—the first sparkling wines were developed there in the 1960's. Despite being newcomers, they are serious about quality. The appellation regulations are very demanding. Non-vintage (NV) Franciacorta must age at least 25 months after harvest, with at least 18 months in contact with the yeast in the bottle. (Champagne requires only 15 months). The result is a delicious sparkler at 1/2-1/3 the cost of a passable French Champagne and with more interest and finesse than the typical Cava from Spain.
Chardonnay is the base of this wine blended with small quantities of Pinot Nero and Pinot Bianco. The mousse is lovely and vibrant. The nose opens with lemon hiding almond notes in the background. The palate is rich, soft, and creamy with a long finish that gave subtle hints of smoke and the characteristic Italian bitterness. Much less austerity, a touch more fruit, less bread, and less minerality than a Champagne. The lovely mouthfeel makes this work.
At this price point, it is worth tracking this down.
Serve with a bowl of potato chips. There is nothing better than salt and champagne

Very picture-intensive post!
I've been trying to do an art project of some sort with A each week for the past few months. In February, the month we started, we wound up doing things along a Valentine's theme - so hearts. In March, we wound up doing a rainbow and it kind of inspired the thought of doing a Spring theme for the next month or so. We have now completed several projects related to spring :) My next thought is to go with a garden type theme and do projects and trips related to that. So visiting different types of gardens in the SD area.
Here are some pictures of our spring themed art so far
The rainbow that started it - a background colored with crayons. And I cut up paper into little squares for the rainbow, then A helped us glue them on. She finally added her little frog sticker. When it didn't come off, she was a bit sad, so we will have to do sticker art another day :)
After the rainbow, we did a cloud and umbrella. Daddy did both of these with A. He drew an umbrella and they painted it with watercolors. The cloud was cotton balls, spread apart and glued down.
Next we made raindrops! I cut out raindrops and A painted some and colored some. I also painted some :)
Of course, A always helps me clean up after a project :)
The theme wall :)
After that, we started on flowers and butterflies. For the flowers, I cut out petals and we glued them together, A was more interested in carrying the gluestick :)
I had a conference in New Orleans in early April, and A came with me to visit our family in Mississippi. There, we went to an Insectarium and saw a butterfly garden. It was so amazing! A loved it, and I really wanted to visit another one with daddy. Turned out that there is one that goes on at the SD Safari Park (formerly the Wild Animal Park) but for only one month a year - April :) So we went to visit that last weekend, and it was just wonderful. It was much more crowded than New Orleans, but still so awesome to watch the butterflies.
In New Orleans,
At the Safari Park, they have a children's discovery area with puzzles, toys, plushies, books, and coloring pages. It is all themed and this month it was insects and butterflies, of course :) So A got to color a page there, and then we went to go visit the butterfly garden :)
Just beautiful! I hope to find some permanent ones around here that we might be able to see more than once a year, but I'm finding they're pretty rare!
Of course, to go along with our butterfly art and trips, we have also been reading The Very Hungry Caterpillar with A, who is a huge fan of Eric Carle :)

Little Faith Explorers is a toddler group meeting during school term times. It is full of toys, song and the all important lunch. It also seeks to support those who want their children baptized so there's some gentle Bible stories included as well as some creative ways of praying with your children.
We meet at the back of church (near the servery). All finished off with a scrummy light lunch. Everyone welcome – pre-schoolers and their parents, carers, grandparents…. – please spread the word!
All of it is free although if you wish to make a contribution towards costs you are very welcome to do so.
We believe strongly in community, looking out for each other (hence the lunch!) and know that parenting is both full of joy and the hardest thing invented to humankind. So even if church is not your thing, or you practice a different faith, you are very welcome to enjoy the stories, get stuck in with crafts as you want and make new friends.
Please come, make yourself at home and we hope that you have a great time!

GCSE Religious Studies
Click the logo or link below if you would like to view the full course specification from the Exam Board website.
|Exam Board
|GCSE Religious Studies A
The new syllabus offered at GCSE is more wide ranging than in previous years, offering a broader understanding of 2 religions, as well as studying a range of moral and philosophical issues. The aim of the RE GCSE is to build on the skills they have learnt in KS3, such as evaluating moral arguments and understanding issues from several points of view. This ability to be able to understand many sides to an argument makes the RE GCSE ideal as a starting point for many careers, such as journalism, law, the medical profession and teaching.
The topics covered are divided into the following two categories:
1. A study of Christianity and Buddhism
This section looks in depth at the core beliefs of both Christianity and Buddhism. The course looks at the key beliefs and teachings of these two religions, along with their worship and festivals.
2. Religious, philosophical and ethical studies
This topic covers 4 areas of study:
• Religion and life: this looks at the origins and value of the universe and human life.
• The existence of God and revelation: this looks at the philosophical arguments for and against the existence of God and the nature of the divine and revelation.
• Religion, peace and conflict: this looks at religion, violence, terrorism and war, along with religion and belief in 21st century conflict.
• Religion, crime and punishment: this looks at religion, crime and the causes of crime, along with religion and punishment.
There is a strong emphasis in both of these sections on evaluating issues, where students will need to be able to express their opinions, as well as understanding other points of view. These are obviously invaluable skills which are needed in a wide range of fields.
Assessment in Religious Studies is not tiered, so all students take the same exam papers and are able to achieve the highest grade possible for them.
There is no coursework. 100% of the mark is based on two written examinations, with 50% of the marks allocated to each paper. These will all be sat in the June of Year 11.
Other Information
The GCSE classes are taught in mixed ability groups.

I know there are times when our kids feel as if they stick out like a sore thumb. That everyone on the planet (and particularly in their classrooms) knows their business. It's uncomfortable to feel like your world's on public display, and I totally get this. As someone who grew up in Navy towns, chose a huge university to attend, and fought passionately against the idea of raising our family in a town of 5,000 people you could say I'm all in when it comes to the value of privacy.
So I understood that a large part of middle school's appeal was that it gave T-man a chance to start fresh. To decide for himself how much of his personal story he would share at school and what he'd prefer to keep separate. Shoot, being in a much larger environment with kids who hadn't known him since kindergarten was one of the perks I'd talk about when T-man got nervous.
And then the teacher forms came home.
Most of them are pretty straightforward – name, address, parent contact info – usually in triplicate because apparently it's against the laws of nature for the classroom, office, and PE files to be interlinked. Covering the Code of Conduct is always a bit amusing; the look of horror on my kids' faces as I discuss the consequences for drinking, drugs, or weapons on campus is always a hoot, but I feel strongly if you're going to sign something you should know what's in it.
But it wasn't the standard forms that gave me pause this year. It was the parent survey that T-man's homeroom teacher asked us to complete. Now, don't get me wrong…she asked for parent input that would help her know our children better, and for that I'm immensely grateful. Sad to say but not everyone would take the time, especially once the kids get into the upper grade levels. So I love that she obviously cares a great deal about her students.
But some of the questions were hard.
What are my goals for T-man this year? His areas of strength? Areas of weakness? Hobbies and accomplishments? And then, the dreaded catch-all question: "Please add anything else you'd like to share. Use the back, if needed."
First off, I know I overthink this stuff. I'm sure it comes from too many years of writing IEPs, but if you ask me about goals I'm not gonna just scribble something down. Then, as if I'm in some kind of crucial job interview, I'm worrying about what the teacher will read into any goal I set for my child. If I say improve organizational skills, will she assume he's coming in a red hot mess? That she can't trust him to get things to me? What if I want him to give 100% effort on assignments – will it make T-man sound like a slacker? Ack! The pressure!
I decided to be honest (yet diplomatic) after mulling the matter over for a day. Be straightforward. Truthful. You know, answer the way I would've wanted parents to answer those questions when I was a teacher.
So I dove right in and did my best, but things got a little hinky when I hit the last question. What else did I want to share?
Well, there was plenty I wanted to add, but I also wanted to respect T-man's privacy…it was a fine line to walk, but there were certain things that simply had to be said. The trick would be in the phrasing.
First I told her how important it is that T-man have a successful first year in middle school. He'd experienced several racial incidents in fourth and fifth grade, and we're concerned that he be supported if this issue comes up again. (Translation: We're sensitive to this, and if he's dealing with it then you need to be dealing with it.)
And second? After some serious editing I found a good way to handle adoption and academics in one fell swoop. I simply said that T-man has limited information about his biological family, so there may be classroom assignments that will need to be modified. Gotta say I was pretty proud of that one – a heads up for any issues (academic or non) without revealing T-man's entire life story.
I was much more open with T-man's elementary school teachers. He was struggling with a lot of tough issues over those years and his classmates didn't exactly aim for tact, so I felt it was important for his teachers to be prepared for anything. I'm not exaggerating when I say his fourth grade teacher was a life saver. Truly.
But T-man's older now. He's growing into a young man (I'm predicting another two inch spurt this fall) who has strong feelings about, well, most everything. Sometimes he wants attention, and sometimes he would sooner die than be touched in public. Sometimes he wants to hang out together, and sometimes he disappears to plug in and watch Netflix. I've learned things are a lot easier if I go with the flow.
It's a new school year, and it's T-man's prerogative to choose his own terms. But there are still some basic truths his teachers need to be his support system.

Side Effects of Flixonase Nasal Spray
Steroid nasal sprays are used commonly to treat conditions like sinusitis and allergic rhinitis. They work by decreasing the inflammation in the nose, and are very effective in reducing allergy symptoms such as stuffy and runny nose, itching and sneezing. Flixonase nasal sprays, known as Flonase in the U.S., contain the steroid fluticasone. Long-term risks have not been reported with Flonase nasal sprays, and they are considered generally safe for long-term use. However, some patients do experience some side effects.
If you are experiencing serious medical symptoms, seek emergency treatment immediately.
Effects on the Nose
According to Drugs.com, using this spray could possibly result in nosebleeds. Irritation and itching of the nasal mucosa can occur with its use. To reduce the risk of bleeding in the nose, the nozzle of the spray has to be directed properly. The patient should aim the spray away from the wall that separates the nostrils. The patient may also experience a stinging and burning sensation in the nose. The use of the spray can result in an unpleasant smell.
Effects on the Throat
Use of Flonase spray can also result in changes in the voice. According to RxList, use of Flonase spray can cause sore throat, dryness and irritation in the throat, cough and hoarseness. Disturbances in taste can also occur after using this spray.
Allergic Reaction
Flonase nasal spray may result in an allergic reaction if the individual is allergic to any of the ingredients in the spray. The patient will have rashes, hives, swelling of the face and neck, itching and difficulty while breathing.
Growth Retardation in Children
Serious side effects with the use of steroid nasal sprays are less common. According to the National Institutes of Health, use of fluticasone spray in children may cause them to grow slowly. Use of this spray is not recommended in children younger than 4 years. Consult your doctor before administering this spray in older children.
Other Side Effects
Another common side effect from using fluticasone is a bothersome headache. Patients may also complain of acne eruptions, weight gain, vision problems, irregular menstrual periods and frequent infections. According to the National Institutes of Health, steroid sprays can cause the patient to have stomach pain, diarrhea and an urge to vomit. Patients should contact their physician if side effects develop while on Flonase nasal spray.

How does a native of Louisiana become a rock-climbing guide? A high-school rock wall, 12 years in the Marine Corps, 4 years in Arizona, 6 moves from Florida to Washington State to North Carolina, and Virginia, a realization that the world of corporate financial management isn't all that exciting, and a very patient wife. I started climbing in high school and was hooked. After a multi-year hiatus due to the Marine Corps, I started climbing again when April and I relocated back to Virginia. I love everything about mid-Atlantic climbing and enjoy spending time on the rocks in Fredericksburg, at Mather's Gorge, Seneca Rocks, and the New River Gorge. I received my instructor certification through the Professional Climbing Guides Institute (PCGI) and enjoy working with people in the vertical environment.
