A Film Unfinished: For half a century, we thought the footage the Nazis shot in the Warsaw Ghetto was truth, but now we know it was staged. Sometimes we need to be reminded that cinema can be a powerful tool—and that we shouldn't believe everything we see.
Another Year: Mike Leigh's films are always deeply personal, and in his latest, the year spent by longtime married couple Tom (Jim Broadbent) and Gerri (Ruth Sheen) is just one more year. But for everyone else in their lives, especially their alcoholic friend Mary (Lesley Manville), it's something else entirely.
Carlos: A five-and-a-half hour biopic about the nefarious terrorist Carlos the Jackal is one of the most engrossing films of the year. Édgar Ramírez is brilliant in the lead role, making both smoking and evil cool once again.
Easy A: Wait, a teen sex comedy in a top-10 list? Absolutely. Emma Stone is enchanting as Olive, the girl everyone thinks is sleeping around in this loose adaptation of The Scarlet Letter. It's funny and touching, and it left me feeling like the first time I saw Sixteen Candles.
Exit Through the Gift Shop: The knock on this film, about a Frenchman trying to make the definitive documentary about street art and the street artist Banksy, is that it all might be a hoax, perpetrated by Banksy. But that misses the point, because even if the entire tale isn't true in the telling, Exit is the definitive documentary on street art and the street artist Banksy. Could anyone else accomplish all that, while also being funny, insightful and kicking our notions of art and art appreciation in the ass? In short, it's a Banksy work of art, a movie that's always two steps ahead of its audience, a hell of a good time to try to catch up to and my favorite film of 2010.
Four Lions: Armed with talented actors and the year's best dialogue, director Chris Morris created a terribly funny comedy about inept British jihadists that makes fun of terrorists and the people who make fun of terrorists.
Ondine: Colin Farrell stars in Neil Jordan's movie as a lonely Irish fisherman who casts his nets one day and pulls up a beautiful woman. When it begins, you think there's no way she could possibly be a mermaid. By the time it's done, you desperately hope that she is one.
Red Riding 1974, 1980, 1983: The three films in this trilogy about corruption and murder in northern England are designed to work as individual pieces, but, together, they make a terrific marathon, best watched on a dark, dreary day.
The Social Network: Easily the best-written film of the year, David Fincher's look at the beginnings of Facebook is far more than a status update, and Jesse Eisenberg gives a career-defining performance as main man Mark Zuckerberg, whose lack of social skills makes him the perfect person to understand how the rest of us interact.
Winter's Bone: Debra Granik's film is as bleak as its name, and 20-year-old Jennifer Lawrence is just terrific as Ree, a teenager who must locate her meth-cooking dad before she and her siblings lose their home. She's trapped by her age, poverty, the law and the intricately tangled Ozark criminal families in the region. Her only support is her Uncle Teardrop, played by John Hawkes, and that might be worse than having no help at all.
And, just for fun, the worst of the worst
Sex and the City 2: Perhaps if I'd been a fan of the first movie or the TV show, I'd have been more willing to overlook how offensive this movie is to A. women, B. Muslims, C. good taste. But I hope not.

That's how much I made after graduating from college in 2005. I aspired to work in the "medical field" but knew nothing about the clinical research. There were no mentors or advisors to guide me.
After a couple of years of hands-on experience working in the industry, it was time to move on. I wanted to be a clinical project manager. But was I ready? Did I have the knowledge and experience to be a clinical project manager?
After 7 months of hustle, I landed with three jobs offers for Clinical Project Manager positions. I was ecstatic and decided to move from Massachusetts to California. It was a hard decision because the change made me uncomfortable and nervous. Looking back, this was the best decision I've made.
I believe that your network can change your life. Thanks to my college friend and roommate who helped me secure the Clinical Project Manager job. Since then, I've cultivated many friendships that have taught me valuable lessons along the way. Aside from the skills needed to be great clinical research professional, I've learned a lot about empathy, self-awareness, and gratitude.
Platforms such as LinkedIn are a great way to connect and communicate with co-workers, professional connections, potential employers and more. LinkedIn also allows us to see how someone progressed in their career.
But how did they get there and what have they been doing differently that others can benefit from learning?
This led me to launch the Clinical Trial Podcast to understand what it takes to be the best-in-class clinical research professional. My goal through this project is to help you accelerate your career in clinical research and clinical trial management. Through a series of interviews with industry experts and blog posts, you'll get valuable insights and hear first-hand on the daily routines of successful clinical research professionals.
This podcast and blog is for students interested to pursue a career in clinical research and clinical trial management, clinical research assistants, associates, and coordinators; clinical project and program managers, clinical data managers, statisticians and programmers, clinical quality associates and managers, clinical safety and medical monitors and clinical scientists and medical writers
My goal is to create valuable content that people can use to grow personally and professionally. It's exciting to ask questions that I would otherwise not be asking. The interviews provide me with a new appreciation of different perspectives. Everyone has a unique worldview and looks through a different lens.
Most importantly, I want to inspire people to take action and improve the industry as a whole by creating a platform for shared learning.
If you have any feedback on this project or my vision, I'd love to hear from you.

Ethiopian astronomers bring IYA2009 to the masses
15 December 2009
The Ethiopian Space Science Society (ESSS) has been celebrating IYA2009 throughout the year. In the case of Ethiopia, it is considered a prime way of promoting astronomy by stimulating interest, especially among young people and as well using the appreciation of the inspirational aspects of astronomy.
Several high-profile activities have been run. The first was a one day open nationwide conference of celebration held at Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia. More than 400 people with different backgrounds including government higher officials, higher educational institute representatives, school community, artists and many of the young community participated. The event was highlighted with an educational seminar, history of Ethiopian Astronomy and culture, and public discussions on space science and astronomy in Ethiopia.
Public sky tours have also been operating, entertaining and educating visitors. Around 250 people have celebrated astronomy through sky observation with four portable telescopes at Entoto Mountain, just on the outskirts of Addis Ababa, where ESSS is constructing an observatory.
ESSS has been helping communities in different regions by encouraging activities and providing seed funding. Other initiatives have been conducted with financial support from the International Astronomical Union. Many brochures in English and Amharic (one of the Ethiopian languages) have been distributed, outlining the aims of IYA2009.
This is just a sample of Ethiopian IYA2009 projects. The Secretariat would like to congratulate all those who have been involved in making IYA2009 such an unforgettable year in Ethiopia.

Markets will stay fixated Wednesday on Europe's efforts to solve the credit problems of its weakest members.
Reports that Germany and other EU members were considering stepping in to help Greece deal with its staggering debt burden helped propel stocks Tuesday, after Monday's slump. The Dow sprang back, with a 150 point gain to 10,058, while the S&P 500 rose 13 to 1070.
Treasurys sold off, driving yields higher. The 10-year was at 3.639 percent and the 2-year was at 0.827 percent.
The rally in risk assets began with news that European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet changed plans so that he could attend the European Union summit Thursday. It later was reported Trichet was previously expected to attend the meeting, but nonetheless, speculation circulated that the EU now planned to help Greece, which is struggling with implementing an austerity plan.
Investors have been worried that Greece's issues are too great for the country to resolve on its own, and that it is at risk of defaulting on its sovereign debt. The same concerns have more recently surrounded Portugal and Spain.
The euro rose and stocks continued to trade higher even as conflicting reports crossed wires during the trading day. The Wall Street Journal reported, however, in the mid afternoon that Germany was considering a plan with European Union partners to help Greece and other troubled European countries with loan guarantees.
"People like clarity," said one stock trader. "I wouldn't mind being long into that (EU) meeting."
But Brown Brothers chief currency strategist Marc Chandler, however, thinks the meeting may not turn out the way the markets expect. "Do they or do they not come up with a package? I say it's unlikely they will," he said.
He said the recent sell off in stocks explains in part why the market shot higher Tuesday in an exaggerated way. "People were itching to buy a dip as of Tuesday last week," he said.
Chandler said he doesn't think sentiment behind the selling in the euro, commodities and stocks really changed. "If the EU bailed out Greece, why is that good for stocks?" he said.
What Else to Watch
Traders look set to be long on snow Wednesday, as a major storm sweeps up the East Coast, threatening as much as a foot or more for Washington and New York. Washington government offices are closed for a third day, as the city continues to recover from its last major storm. Trading could be lighter on Wall Street. New York City was expected to feel the brunt of the storm in the afternoon.
Wednesday's markets will get a good look at how the Fed's exit strategy might work as it eventually ends its zero rate policy and winds down the programs it undertook to battle the financial crisis. Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke was scheduled to speak before Congress, but the hearing was postponed due to weather. His comments, however, will be made available at 10 a.m.
International trade data is expected at 8:30 , and the Treasury auctions $25 billion in 10-years at 1 p.m.
Earnings reports are expected from Arcelor Mittal, Sanofi-Aventis, Marsh and McLennan, Companhia Vale do Rio Doce, New York Times, Sprint Nextel and Computer Sciences.
Debt Threat
Robert Browne, chief investment officer with Northern Trust, said in a quick interview that he has been a believer in the reflation trade and remains a buyer of commodities, emerging markets and high-yield securities.
He calls himself "nervously sanguine," and he's overweight "risk." Browne said investors should not underestimate the importance to markets of the low rate policies of the Fed, ECB and Bank of Japan.
He's watching Greece though, a story that's been known to markets long before they began to react.. "Greece worries us, not on a stand alone basis...It's symptomatic of when markets finally get nervous about uncontrollable fiscal deficits," he said. The U.S. is headed toward that in about seven to eight years time, he said. The question for investors is when do markets start to react.
While Greek bond spreads tightened sharply Tuesday on the news of the country's possible rescue, it was interesting to see that California bonds did not have the same response. Raymond James managing director Peter Delahunt said the spreads on California debt moved wider recently on the Greek story and were held at wider levels through midday Tuesday. He said investors are concerned that if sovereign debt could potentially be modified or restructured in a rescue plan than state issues might be as well.
The World's Banker
Goldman Sachs was the talk of markets Tuesday as traders passed around a Der Spiegel story on how it aided Greece expand its ability to borrow by an additional $1 billion, through a complicated currency swap in 2002. The swap, or actually loan, would not have shown up in Greece's debt statistics, according to reports.
A Goldman spokesman said the firm was approached by Greece to perform what was a legitimate trade. The story was of particular interest since it followed speculation in markets that Greece had hidden off balance sheet debt.
Goldman says the type of deal wasn't uncommon and pointed to a similar deal J.P. Morgan did for Italy in the late 1990s. But the story gathered momentum Tuesday even though it was apparently reported in trade publications year's earlier.

In Israel, the IDF unit in which one serves sets a young person on a path for years to come. Just as attending a reputable university in the States can lead to better career opportunities, increase social status, and provide a prestigious resume line for the rest of one's life, so too the prestige of one's IDF service can either open doors for many years, or, in the case of low-level positions, shut those doors forever.
By providing Israeli girls with six months of studies, hiking, volunteer service, physical training, and more self-confidence, Alma paves their way into some of the most prestigious army units available. Alma advocates for them directly to the IDF, providing the IDF with a stronger base of new soldiers, substantially raising the girls' chances of desirable assignments, and changing their trajectories for a lifetime.

Saw this on facebook and it hit me, right on. How true. We often complain about how unfair life is and how terrible our life can be. We dare not dream for the sky because we are afraid of falling hard and hurting ourselves. We frown more often at the mishaps and shortcomings because it's easier to be grumpy. We seldom count of blessings because to us, it's not that many.
When i was younger, all i wanted was to be a radio DJ and to be RICH. Well, i got the first one, but am still on the road to the second one. However, along the way, i realise that being rich is not that easy. As adults, we are tied down to so many commitments. This responsibility that we undertake may kill our dreams and spirit towards what we have always dreamed of.
I've always been a dreamer. And i often get laughed at when i was younger. But it made me stronger. I have this urge to always prove to myself that i can do it. I can achieve things that people think I'm incapable of. Of course there were many moments i felt like giving up, like everything else in this world in against me. I cry, but not too long. When I'm down, i force myself to think of things that i should be thankful for. I count my blessings because it makes me feel better about things. I feel that one of the key to happiness is to learn how to count our blessings.
Count your blessings. Too often, we grumble over life's stresses, troubles, complaints and frustrations. Instead, try to look for the sweeter things in your life, like your loved ones and also a job that pays the bills.
Count the laughter. One of the greatest and simplest health remedies is laughter. Find things or people that make you laugh and smile. It takes the blues away and would definitely make you a happier person. Cos studies have shown that happier people and those who laugh often, tend to live a longer and more fulfilling life. While you're at it, laugh at your own seriousness. Whatever has you emotionally tied in knots is not worth the stress. Laugh it off! Smile on purpose, no matter what you're dealing with. It will make you feel better.
Count the moments. Spend a few minutes before you go to sleep in thankfulness. Consciously recall all the simple pleasures of your day. I practice this with my partner. We try our best to make time for small talk right before we fall asleep. Be thankful even for the littlest of things. It makes you a more contented being.
When we feel love and gratitude, it is impossible for us to be negative, so make this a habit, to raise your energy level and lift you out of the negative state. It's a matter of changing our attitudes towards a more positive one.
I'm thankful for my awesome family who are so close-knit despite our differences. My family is king for random outings. But it's the effort that i appreciate the most. Each one of us does our best to make time for random outings. Thank you cousins, nephews and nieces for putting aside time for the family. You know i love you all like crazy.
I'm thankful for having good friends who are there for me when I need their company. I knew these girls since i was 13 and i can still laugh and have a good meaningful conversation with them despite not hanging out as often.
I'm thankful for having a job that I love so much. A chilldhood dream come true.
I'm thankful for having the best husband in the world who adores me and always does his best to put me first before himself. I'm thankful for my two boys who never fail to make me smile and proud as a mother. These people are the reason that keeps me going each day.
Alhamdulillah. Life is good. But i can't wait for it to get even better.
Someday, insya'Allah.
It's ok to dream BIG my friends. You just gotta have faith in that dream. =)

It is then needle-turned applique' (new to me) and then "echo" quilted by hand. Quite a stretch outside of my box, but I really enjoyed it. I am going to turn it into a large tote bag. Others are choosing to make pillows, but I figure, one can never have too many bags (or is that diamonds, or shoes)? Hahaha.

Welcome to the Falara Wiki
Wiki about the Priestess Falara appeared in the Korean MMORPG Priston Tale
Falara appeared in the Korean 3D Fantasy MMORPG 'Priston Tale' and belongs to the tribe of the Morions. She was born in the town Pillai, which is a floating isle high above the sea. She is a Priestess which has enormous psychic powers. Besides that she owns healing powers which protect and support the people in her environment. Falara ist the leader and creator of the 'Eternal' clan.
When Falara was a baby her parents got killed while the big undead Invasion in Pillai's Kingdom. It was a cruel and devious attack by the undeads emperor 'Valento' to spread his Kingdom. With the help of the old Navisko army, Pillai managed to fight the undeads back to the deserts. Falara's Parents were well known and had a good reputation in Pillai. Together the local residents decided to raise Falara , they taught her the virtues of wisdom, justice, mercy, faith, kindness and love. When Falara grew to a young girl, she decided to become a Priestess. As a Priestess she wanted to fight against the undead powers that threaten the whole continent of Priston and protect all the humans in her environment. Raymond, the Skill Master of Pillai, trained Falara in becoming a great Priestess, which made her control the holy spirits very well. Until today Raymond became a father role and one oft he most important persons for Falara.
When she became a young woman, Falara left Pillai for a while to travel to Ricarten and asked the king for an alliance against the undeads. Ricarten and Pillai always had differences and little fights in the past. Since Ricarten suffered by undead attacks as well and didn't have any holy defenders against undeads, they agreed on the alliance. The tribe of Ricarten that was called Tempskron, fought together with Morions against monsters until today. Tempskron and Morion decided to conclude peace and signed a peace treaty. Falara became a well liked guest in Ricarten.
To have an elite that protects the population and fights against undeads, Falara created a Clan called 'Eternal'. Eternal had some strict rules which served for the common good. Based on the virtues that Falara got teached in her youth, Eternal was a Clan that was mixed with Morions and Tempskrons. Since this braced the bound between the two Kingdoms, the Clan was allowed to move into the Bless Castle in which it got supported with provisions and resources for the war. Later Falara left the Priston continent to carry Eternal's banner and ideals through the world. In Priston a new Legendary Clan got created by old friends and members, to follow its old virtues. They were allowed to move into the Bless Castle as well.
Valento is the Emperor of the undeads. His Kingdom was spread all over the deserts and ice hills in the north. Falara hates Valento mercilessly, since his Invasion of Pillai's Kingdom caused the death of her parents. She swore to search Valento until the end and revenge her parent's death. Since only the toughest Warriors would survive the ice hills, Falara started to hunt Valento with her Clan. She finally found Valento and had a long fight until he fell. A legend says Valentos undead soul appears several times a day, cursed to spawn in the ice hills and meant to be beaten down by strongest warriors.
Magical Powers
In her education as Priestess, Falara learned some powerful magical skills that help people on the one side and give strong damage to monsters and especially to undeads on the other side. Falara is able to keep people alive in wars, she is even able to revive people that just died. With those heal and protection powers especially many Tempskrons were able to survive in the wars against monsters. Today Priestess became one of the most important professions in the continent of Priston.

South Beaches Neighbors: Lady Lisa releases summer report
Lorraine Thompson
South Beaches News
Lady Lisa, a 75-foot scientifically equipped shrimp trawler, made her summer pass from Beaufort, S.C., through local waters last week on its way to Cape Canaveral.
Pearse Webster, chief scientist for the Southeast Area Monitoring and Assessment Program (SEAMAP), was accompanied by a crew of six biologists.
The vessel worked the waters off St. Augustine on Tuesday, meandered to Cape Canaveral, and passed back through our local waters Thursday on its way back to its home base.
Webster emailed his preliminary findings:
"There are still a few spawning white shrimp from the spring spawn. But, there are also quite a few small white shrimp out here, which are almost certainly the offspring of early spring spawners. We occasionally see a few, but this is a bit early for such small ones," he noted July 17.
Surprisingly, water temperatures were a bit cooler as the vessel moved south.
"Water temperature was 74 F. when we started this morning," he wrote July 18.
"That's a lot nicer than the 86 F. or so that it was when we left South Carolina. Seems like St. Augustine was higher too, roughly 81 to 82. Catches down here are fairly light, so far, but not alarmingly so. Spot, croaker, and banded drum are among the most numerous species. We had a few more shrimp today, mostly whites that were generally very small or very large."
Lady Lisa, which was built in St. Augustine in 1980, is one of four research vessels maintained by the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (DNR). The vessel is the primary sampling platform for several state and federal projects. It works near coastal waters between Cape Hatteras, NC and Cape Canaveral. Its next pass through local waters is scheduled in the fall.
St. Augustine Beach City Commissioners gave the green light for the St. Augustine Beach Community Garden project to proceed with fencing in the area located between A and First streets on 2nd Avenue. The installation by Hardwick Fence began last week. Volunteers plan to overlay the wire fence with lattice and later plant vines to turn it into a green living fence. Volunteers include students from Pedro Menendez High School.
Nana Royer, president of the project said that 14 volunteers showed up to mow, hoe, and pull weeds and prepare the ground for the fence installation. The next step is the construction of the 4.5 x 11.5 foot raised garden beds. Two garden beds are planned to be dedicated to children's gardening. A fall gardening season is planned.
Royer reports that there are currently 45 garden members
"As soon as it is confirmed that there are enough raised beds to accommodate the current membership, remaining beds will be assigned to new members," Royer said.
Affiliate memberships are available for $10 annually which will allow admission into the garden, participation in gardening communal beds, and participation in all garden community activities and communications.
Non-members may visit the garden as long as a member is present.
Royer noted that a contribution came from a stranger in Silver Spring, Md., who somehow got on the garden mailing list and donated simply because she "thought it was a good cause."
Anyone interested in membership in the project may call Royer, 461-3541 or Dennis Collins, 806-0764. For information on making a donation toward the expenses of establishing and maintaining the garden, go to www.sabgarden.org and click on "donate."
As we head into the peak time for hurricanes, here are some reminders:
� If you live on Anastasia Island, in addition to recommended equipment and supplies, you should have an official reentry pass for your vehicle in case there is a mandatory evacuation. If you obtained a reentry pass in previous years those passes are valid indefinitely. For island residents who do not have a pass, they are available at the St. Augustine Beach Police Department, 2300 A1A South, on weekdays between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. To get the free tag, you'll need some identification showing your island address, such as a driver's license or a utility bill.
� In the event of a mandatory evacuation, without a reentry pass, you may be delayed. Those with passes will be allowed re-entry as the bridges reopen. Those without passes may be delayed pending proof of residency.
You should also know your designated evacuation route and what to do before you leave home. Some routes have changed.
� All this plus other helpful information including local shelter for humans and pets is included in the 2012 St. Johns County Hurricane Preparedness Guide which is available at government offices and libraries.

In her latest column for MI Focus, musician and freelance music and technology writer Jess Walter looks at the different needs musicians have when recording at home, and what requirements they should think about when buying an audio interface…
Home recording for sound and audio is convenient and simple with the right equipment – you just need a good audio interface. Choosing the right one for you is important though. If you are just recording one instrument at a time, the interface you choose will be different than if you need to record a band simultaneously. Mobile recording interfaces that work with smartphones are now available too, making it easier than ever to record music at home, without having to pay for the cost of hiring a studio. So how do they work?
Do I need more than one instrument input?
Even if you are recording a song with numerous instruments, the likelihood is that you will be recording these separately. For the majority of people recording at home, an interface with 2 instrument inputs is enough. However, if you are using more than one microphone, for recording vocals, make sure that you have more than one XLR input. Look for an audio interface with combo inputs for band work. It is of course possible to record a band with only 2 inputs, but you will need to work on layering the track afterwards, which can be time consuming.
The advantages of digital signal processing
Digital Signal Processing (DSL) is more often found on an audio interface that has numerous outputs. You can install this software on your computer and use it to create different mixes within the outputs. This can really help with levels if you are recording a band at home. You can listen to the balance of the musicians and adjust the sounds, or add effects such as reverb. If you make headphone mixes, it won't affect the recording of the original track, so you have the added advantage of being able to adjust the music at a later date.
What you get for your budget
An entry level audio interface can be bought for as little as £50. Alesis, Behringer, Steinberg and Focusright all offer interfaces with USB, suitable for microphones and instruments. Some include a gain knob, and are iOS ready. If you want to go a little more upmarket and have 8 channels, then you will have to look at spending somewhere in the range of £150-200. The quality of the recordings are only ever going to be as good as the quality of the components that the interface is built with. The next generation of audio interfaces move into the £500-£2000 range, and can capture some outstanding recordings.
If you are recording music at home, there is something out there for every budget. You just need to decide what your priorities are for quality and convenience.

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. — A northeastern Pennsylvania woman is heading to trial on animal cruelty charges for marketing "gothic kittens" with ear and neck piercings over the Internet.
Thirty-five-year-old groomer Holly Crawford is scheduled for trial Tuesday in Wilkes-Barre.
Prosecutors say she inflicted pain on the cats to make money. Attorneys for Crawford say she didn't act maliciously.
Crawford's home outside Wilkes-Barre was raided in December 2008 after the SPCA of Luzerne County received a tip that she was marketing the animals online for hundreds of dollars.
Crawford said she used sterilized needles and made sure the kittens were healing properly. She said she wasn't trying to hurt them.

A recent U.S. Supreme Court decision made it illegal for police departments to track people by use of a GPS device. (United States v. Jones, No. 10-1259). Naturally with that ruling the question of whether employers can track employees by the use of a GPS, especially in a smart phone, was raised. The consensus of many attorneys was if you are tracking employees by GPS you had better have a good policy in place.
In a SHRM article writer Allen Smith says "An employer is on safer ground using GPS devices to track employees if it has a policy that instructs employees that it may use tracking devices to monitor employees' whereabouts during work hours and will not monitor them outside work hours." Attorney Phillip Gordon of Littler Mendelson took it further and said "The more prudent practice would be to have the employee sign an agreement permitting the installation of the GPS device or activation of the GPS capability on a smart phone." Naturally I believe it would also have to be a company issued smart phone.
A further step would be to explain to employees that the device would be to the benefit of the employee in that it could be used to corroborate an explanation of presence at a customer's location when the customer disputes something like a service call. I can think of a situation where a customer might dispute a service technician presence when in reality it was the customer who was not present. It can also be used as a safety mechanism for traveling employees.
In a situation where the employer may be using the GPS device to impose discipline, Gordon said, he "would recommend that the employer be candid about it but also assure that employment decisions will not be based exclusively on location information. Doing some investigation is important because GPS devices are accurate only to between 50 and 100 feet and an employee could have an innocent explanation for having been at a particular location at a particular time."
There is potential for abuse in having GPS tracking capabilities, however, these are potential landmines of trouble for employers if this tracking is done after hours. The potential problems include invasion of privacy (which will vary state to state); violations of the National Labor Relations Act if being used to track potential union activity; and even violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act if tracking employee whereabouts could be considered compensable time.
As with any policy, any company moving to GPS tracking needs to communicate, communicate and communicate more the workings and benefits of this policy.
If you currently have a GPS tracking policy please let us know how it is working. What other benefits or pitfalls should the rest of us know about?

Department of Education (DepEd) Secretary Armin Luistro was glad about this favorable development in PH education. He said that with the President's approval of this law the efforts of those stakeholders who worked on this didn't come in vain.
Senator Ralph G. Recto, principal author of the Senate version of this bill said that the use of "mother tongue" as the medium of instruction for lower years could "better facilitate and expedite learning." He added this will make possible in "quicker comprehension."
The following are series of advocacy seminar/workshops on the implementation of K-to-12 basic education curriculum conducted by the Division of La Carlota City since the time of former SDS Juliet A. Jeruta and to the present in the leadership of acting SDS Portia M. Mallorca:
- Opportunity to succeed
- Ready to implement K to 12
- K-to-12 Education Curriculum Rolls Out
- Let's do it
- Community's Role in K-to-12
- La Carlota DepEd Advocacy Orientation on K+12
La Carlota Division Can Do It
The acting SDS Portia M. Mallorca declared at the recent closing of 5-day seminar-workshop of 62 grade teachers in the division of La Carlota City, "We can do it. We're doing it for the future of the children, of our city, of our country." "Since We're the only chosen few, let's do it!"
All the participants committed themselves for the implementation of K to 12 in a simple but solemn ceremony.

- England
Hodgson fires warning to Cole ahead of World Cup
Ashley Cole's place in England's World Cup squad is by no means certain, according to manager Roy Hodgson.
Cole is set to win his 106th cap in either Friday's friendly against Chile at Wembley or against Germany at the same venue four days later, but the emergence of several rivals for his left-back role mean his place on the plane to Brazil is not yet confirmed.
Everton's Leighton Baines, Arsenal's Kieran Gibbs and Southampton's Under-21 international Luke Shaw will also be in contention for next summer and Cole - who has not played in Chelsea's last two games - is not getting any guarantees from his international boss.
"From an England perspective, I'm still very happy to consider Ashley Cole as a potential English left-back," Hodgson told reporters ahead of the Chile match.
"But as you know the competition for that spot is particularly fierce.
"Baines is also playing well and on top of that we have Gibbs and Shaw - two younger players but who I think can definitely put these more senior ones under some pressure.
"I would definitely not be concerned, if there were no Ashley Cole or Leighton Baines, about Gibbs or Shaw playing."
Shaw's Southampton team-mates - forward Jay Rodriguez and midfielder Adam Lallana - set to make their England debuts following their first senior call-ups, but Hodgson warned that the strong competition for places means second chances to impress are rare.
"It's going to be a big night for them if they get their chance and unfortunately if they do fail spectacularly and do really badly, it will be held against them," he said.
"I would like to think that, if a guy gets a chance, he'll be good enough to take it and confirm that he deserves his place in the squad in the first place."

The following is a letter from Elder Macarius of the Optina monastery in Russia to one of his spiritual children on the topic of death and suffering. Enjoy.
On the 20th of January, the letter announcing to me the sad news of my esteemed grandmother, A.P., reached my hand. Thanks be to the merciful God, Who allowed her to leave this world when she had reached her declining years, in the white garments of sincere repentance and confession of her sins, bearing the seal of Holy Unction upon herself, and having Christ within her by partaking of His Holy and Life-giving Mysteries! I thank you for the detail of her death, for they all give hope for her future well-being. I thank you also that you did not conceal from me the feelings of your saddened heart, because I like to share grief with the grieving. I owe you the greatest sympathy, since your love inspired you to look for me in this distant, silent, and unknown corner.
Having lost a person we realize his actual value, dearest Paul Joachimovich, and maybe even overestimate him. The law of destruction was imprinted since my conception; on each newly developing member, death applied its menacing seal, saying: "This is mine." The links of my days are a chain of greater or lesser suffering; every new day of my life is a step that draws me closer to decay. Sicknesses come, and my trembling heart asks them: "Are you just the forerunner of my death, or have you already been given the authority to separate my soul from my body with a dread and terrible parting?" Sometimes my spiritual eye, distracted by the cares of life, abandons the contemplation of my sad destiny. Yet, as soon as an unexpected sorrowful event strikes me, I quickly come back to my favorite teaching, like a baby to its mother's breast, i.e., to a discourse on death, for in sincere grief is hidden true consolation, and the wise remembrance of death breaks the bonds of death.
Thou, Who by Thy unspeakable goodness hast created us, tell us, why didst Thou fill our lives with grief? Dost not Thy mercy make Thee pity our sufferings? Why dost Thou grant me being and later take it away through a painful death?
I do not enjoy, says God, your illnesses, O man. But, out of the seeds of your grief and sorrow, I want to bring forth for you fruits of eternal and majestic joy. I imprinted the law of death and destruction not only in your body, but also in every object of this visible world. I commanded the whole world, together with your body, to cry out to you that this life is not the true and real life, and thee is nothing permanent here to which your heart should become attached through justifiable love. When you do not hearken unto the threatening voice of the entire universe, then My paternal mercy, which always wishes you unlimited good, compels Me to lift the scepter of chastisement. WHen I torment you with temptations, wear you out with illness, with pangs of remorse, it is that you might abandon your folly, become wise, cease seeking after shadows and return to the path of truth, and at the same time to the path of salvation. My unutterable mercy and unlimited love for human beings compelled Me to take your flesh upon Myself; through My abasement I have revealed the greatness of God to the human race (cf. John 14:9) By suffering on the Cross for the salvation of men, whom I desire to draw to Myself, I first afflict them with grief, and with these arrows of affliction I deaden their hearts to temporary pleasures. The scepter of punishment is an emblem of My love for men. Thus, I first afflicted the heart of My servant David, and when a torrent of temptations separated him from the world, then some unusual thought arose and took possession of his mind. He writes; "I called to mind the years of ages past, and I meditated," i.e., I glimpsed the past days of my life and they appeared to me as a momentary dream, an apparition that quickly disappeared, dead to life. Then I thought about eternity and compared it with the brevity of my past life, and comparing the eternal with the short and temporary, I came to a conclusion. What is this conclusion? "Man like a shadow shall pass away and disquiets himself in vain (Ps. 38:6.)" That is, no matter how much a man may bustle about, no matter how much he may care for acquiring different passing goods, all this has no value for he does not cease being and incidental brief apparition, a guest and wanderer in this world. Such feelings and reflections made him retreat from the world of the passions, and he began to study the law of the Lord day and night and to strive toward knowledge of himself and of God, as the thirsty hart runs toward a stream of fresh water. Being a King, David had opportunities for temporary pleasures, but after he tasted the sweetness of inner blessings, he even forgot to eat his bread.
I have written you, my dear uncle, of my feelings. If they do not correspond with worldly thinking, at least they are sincere, and this sincerity might be a consolation in this time of grief.
Your late mother, before her death, exhorted you to be a good Christian, and I wish this for you with all my heart. Then in your eyes death will lose its threatening aspect and will become a most pleasant transition from temporary affliction to unending delight. It will carry you to the chambers where, as we may almost certainly suppose, your mother now dwells. Grief for the dead, in the light of the right way of thinking, disappears, and is replaced by a good hope that consoles you and makes your soul rejoice. Fanaticism hinders man's thinking-true faith gives it freedom. This freedom reveals itself through a man's steadfastness in all possible good or unpleasant events. The sword that severs our bonds is a purified mind., which recognizes in every circumstance its true, hidden, mysterious cause. Anyone who strives toward this goal may reach it by examining his own nothingness, and reverently asking for divine protection and help.
Glory be for all things to the most merciful God, Who pours out His ineffable blessings upon us in every circumstance. For the Fount of Goodness can produce no other waves but waves of goodness. Man, often not recognizing this, murmurs against the All-Gracious One.
-Hieromonk Macarius

Simple ideas for Preppies to Young Adults
With the new year begun it is time to start to familiarise yourself with the media your children are using and may begin to use over the next year or two.
Happy learning – it is no longer an acceptable excuse for adults to feign knowledge of the sites our children visit. We must be ahead of the game!
Regardless of the age of your child there is always a place to start. Here are some age appropriate suggestions.
If your child is entering Prep they will be starting to use the internet. Perhaps they play a few games, perhaps they search for things on Google. Have you protected your child from accidently coming across inappropriate sites by adding the right software (see our drop down menu on Filters). Talk to your child about what they should do if they see something that they don't like. Try it for yourself…type Barbie Doll into Google and see what comes up.
Grades 1 to 3
If your child is entering Grades 1 to 3 start to proactively share values and expectations about using technology. Set family rules about access and length of access. Talk about the importance of keeping Passwords secret and not sharing personal information on line. Viewing materials found on the http://www.mediafamily.org/ web site can be helpful when talking with your child.
Grades 4 to 6
If your child is in Grades 4 to 6 they might ask if they can have a Facebook account. You have to be 13 to do so or lie about your age. There are good reasons for this. You might think it is lovely for your 10 year old to share photos and chats with their 10 year old friends, but consider the fact that many of their 10 year old friends have teenage brothers and sisters – do you want your 10 year old to see the photos, language and concepts shared by teens? Actively engage and monitor household technologies to learn about the latest and greatest. A method of staying up to date is by subscribing to www.iCybersafe.com – just enter your email address in the box at the top right hand corner of this page and you will receive the latest articles as they are posted.
Year 7
If your child is entering Year 7 it is likely, for instance, that they will ask (or not) to set up a Facebook account when they turn 13 (the legal age for a Facebook Account). Have you used Facebook? Do you understand how to set the Security settings to ensure that your child is safe and protected? This term is a good time to begin exploring this. Our Social Media drop down menu will give you quite a lesson on how to navigate Facebook.
Provide them with strategies if they do see cyberbullying or are victims of it. Tell Mum and Dad, tell your Big Sister or Brother, your Level Manager or Form Tutor. Email them if that feels more comfortable but don't put up with it or accept it.
Check that your filtering system is up to date and covers all your computers and mobile phones. There are several filtering programs that can be downloaded for free or are fee-based that can filter mobile phone and computer data. See our drop down menu on Filters.
Year 8 and above
If your child is between 14 and 17 emphasize that NOTHING is private and EVERYTHING is permanent on the internet. We all believe that we have a certain level of privacy with our individual technologies. This is not the case. Every day we are leaving a "digital footprint" that will last indefinitely. Remind them that employers, real estate agents, and anyone interested in them will search the internet for photos and information about them. Get them to 'google' their name and see what is there already!
Discuss respectful etiquette and the negative impacts of cyberbullying. http://www.cyberbully.org/ can provide information on the negative impacts of bullying with technologies. nomorebullying.com
Limit TV viewing and screen time. Develop family contracts about screen time. Link it with a consequence and be strong and stick to it. Obviously, the more time our children are in front of a screen on Facebook, the less time they are reading, playing outside, or engaged in HOMEWORK!

Wedding Bells
Wedding Bells is the first level of the game and serves as a tutorial, as is often the case with first levels.
There is an achievement on PC for using a controller. The game controls much easier using a controller and is highly recommended.
The first thing Octodad needs to do is clear off some space. Flail your arms around until nothing but the cushions remain. From there, remove the cushions in any order to reveal a key. Use the key to unlock the medicine cabinet. The wall will collapse and open up the path into the next room.
From there, grab the first tie of the game and head into the reception hall. The tuxedo is in a room to the left, along with a key needed to unlock the exit.
Before getting the tux and key, however, go ahead and get the second tie of the level.
Leave the reception hall and make your way through another hallway, this one with an air duct and some banana peels. You can avoid them, but it doesn't really matter. The door will open up to reveal a Cthulu stained glass window with your bowtie.
There are two ways to get the bowtie. The first involves picking up a gift and throwing it at the window, to shatter it. The second method is simply walking over the table and up to the window, which will also smash it.
Grab your tie and put it on. Head down the hall and lift up the gate. There are two more rooms to pass through, and then the doors open up into the chapel.
The aisle is lined with vases on pedestals. Knocking them down will decrease your ink meter, but there is an achievement to be had. You'll notice a fish flopping around on the groom's side of the church. The fish is a key part of another achievement.
Carefully make your way up the aisle to Scarlet and grab the final tie of the level. The ring is located in a crate to the right. Grab it and place it on Scarlet's wrist, or go for yet another achievement. The opening credits will roll.

The President of Caritas Lebanon, Father Simon Faddoul says it's certain that many Syrian refugees will die from cold and disease this coming winter and all of them are suffering right now. He spoke about their desperate plight.
After the UN, Caritas Lebanon is the main non-governmental provider of aid to the estimated 1.1 million Syrian refugees who have fled to Lebanon to escape the civil war in their homeland. Father Faddoul describes it as "a very gloomy situation" for many of these refugees, saying they live "in horrible conditions."
Although the Syrian refugees face a variety of living conditions in Lebanon, ranging from rented apartments, to tents, to uninhabited buildings or shacks. Father Faddoul says large numbers of them are living in makeshift shacks or even more unsanitary conditions: " I know and visited a family of 10 who are living in a cowshed," he says, amidst the dirt and with no infrastructure whatsoever. But regardless of the quality of their shelter, "they are all suffering… and it's a very sad scene."
Father Faddoul says the arrival of the first winter weather has exacerbated those sufferings, especially for the children and the elderly, because so many of the Syrian refugees lack proper winter clothing and there is "a lack of oil and gas" for heating. He also points out that there is a huge increase in deforestation levels in Lebanon because the refugees are cutting down so many trees to burn the wood and keep warm during the bitter cold.
Asked whether the influx of refugees from Syria is still continuing, Father Faddoul replies that every day between two and three thousand Syrians are crossing over the border, putting a further strain on the already over-stretched resources of Lebanon. And he concludes by warning that with the coming of the winter cold, the refugees' already "extremely difficult" living conditions are likely to worsen and will definitely lead to loss of life. "Certainly many will die from cold and disease."

About Skyrail
Skyrail Rainforest Cableway is a Cairns attraction with a Terminal in Kuranda and is accessible from Cairns, Palm Cove, Port Douglas and the Atherton Tablelands. Stretching 7.5km through the tropical rainforests of North Queensland, Skyrail provides people with a unique opportunity, and a world first, to see and experience ancient tropical rainforest in a safe and environmentally friendly way.
Skyrail opened to the public on 31st August 1995. The cableway was originally installed with 47 gondolas, giving it a carrying capacity of 300 people per hour, however a $2.5million upgrade completed in May 1997 increased the total number of gondolas to 114 and increased the carrying capacity to 700 people per hour.
In December 2013, Skyrail introduced 11 Diamond View glass floor gondolas which seat 5 people and offer yet another amazing perspective of the rainforest below.
When construction of Skyrail was completed it was the world's longest gondola cableway at the time. The Skyrail project and construction required world first construction techniques and even today Skyrail Rainforest Cableway remains the most environmentally sensitive cableway project in the world.
Skyrail is a must do Cairns attraction for all visitors to Tropical North Queensland.

Heyy happy summer!! Since I am now on summer break I wanted to share my morning routine since summer mornings are honestly the best. I took these photos on my first day of summer break last Friday before going out with my friends (weekend in my life coming soon cause I actually did stuff for a few days in a row). I think that summer morning routines are such a classic but great post since they always get me excited about summer, I love them!!
To start off a summer morning you obviously have to wakeup… I try to only give myself a few minutes on my phone in the morning, just to respond to texts and snaps! Then I go straight over to Spotify and play my summer playlist, I'm obsessed with it! Then I (try) to get right out of bed and either go to my computer to work on a post and read blogs or I go for food. This morning I went straight downstairs to make some breakfast.
I forgot to take a photo of my breakfast but I posted it on my instagram story so here's a photo of that! I made a cup coffee using the breakfast blend k-cup and soymilk, I don't have coffee every morning but I do enjoy a cup pretty often in the summer. For my breakfast, I made the peanut butter banana toast from my what i eat in a day at school (vegan) post! This and almond milk yogurt with muesli have been my two favorite breakfasts lately.
After breakfast I head back to my room and lately I've been doing my little devotional studies in the mornings and I love it! I'm not going to get into what I do in this post but if you're interested, check out my post on how i connect with my faith! I just do this while drinking my coffee and it's so nice and relaxing 🙂
Then depending on if I took a shower the night before or not, I'll take a shower if not. Today I actually took a bath because I had more time and I just used a bubble bath, read a book and watched Netflix! I will also wash my face and brush my teeth, all that basic stuff.
For my makeup, since I was going out with my friend I did a little more than usual that was kinda similar to my ten minute makeup look just a different palette and highlighter. I just continued to play my playlist while I got ready and it was just a fun time!!
After makeup I did my hair, I already had second or third day curls since I don't always wash it when I shower so I just added to them! I use the Bedhead Curlipops (best name ever) curling wand and glove if you were wondering and it's amazing. Honestly the glove is a lifesaver since I'd probably have burned myself to death without it… I also put my hair in a ponytail to add the curls because it's easier that way and I'm kinda lazy!!
Finally I just changed into my outfit for this day! I wore a off-the-shoulder top from Target, jeans from Hollister and pink Vans. It wasn't the warmest today which was… disappointing so I wore jeans.
Today we went for açai bowls, went to the lake and walked around a little town!! But again you'll see more in the weekend in my life coming soon…
I hope you enjoyed and go make today great!!
Love, Carly Allison

Journal Entry Day 3 of Waking (Divergent)
Weird my world and maybe the world around me has changed forever and I go and check email! This was my last email that I sent to a Canadian Prepper a fellow and his family in the North of Ontario that I have met a few times in RL, Real Life.
"Hey there long time no chat, you always post great info,
except when it is Tax sales.. LOL
So update, no work, sick still, they do not know what it is, more tests more Doctor and Hospital visits!
how have you been?"
Bet that got him thinking as the world went crazy around him! Man I wish it was a better message, wishing him and his family well, asking how he and the family have been facing the coming winter, anything more. Anything more is right.
This is my Journal since my Waking,
waking up into this strange world!
So if anyone ever reads the Journal they will wonder why start it at Day 3. Well simple answer, I still do not remember much on Day's 1 & 2. Those days are still fuzzy, disoriented, full of nausea and other groggy symptoms.
Day 1 was not pretty at all! Not at all, I woke up or came too sitting in the driver's seat of my Van. All I remember about that is I woke up fuzzy, tired, and wanting to vomit (apparently again, as outside the door was a pile as well as down the front of me!) It was not pretty at all.
Zeldy my Dog was in the back in her sleeping and travelling area with the same problems, vomit and stuff around her, vomit and stuff close to the door. It looks like we have been here doing this for a while. We both climbed slowly out, did our business outside, she walked stiffly over to her water bowl, the one I put under the corner of a car carrier trailer to catch rain water, she drank deeply from the water.
I picked up my near empty 1 gallon jug of water, which was full the last time I remember and took out the last sip. The last sip, what is going on here!
"Awe man", I was so tired and sick, I just sat back in the seat, she climbed in the side of the van and that is the last I remember until the rain started hitting me on the face.
Day 2 ish. Not sure what time it is everything is black out, the rain and wind is whipping up and I got to go again. Thankfully though right now, I do not feel like hurling again, right now that is. "Man am I parched with thirst or what." I must have said this out loud because Zeldy is now looking at me funny, that normally cute way a dog looks at you when it is trying to understand what you are saying. Normally this would be cute, but my head is spinning now so bad, I think that I will fall over, got to look at something more level. Right that's funny to me, I live at the back of a farm in my Truck Camper and the fellow that is my Landlord friend named Mick also has an Excavation Company and he brings back salvage so he can sell it when the market is high. Well right now all that scrap metal in all those funny shapes and piles are making me look rather funny as I start staggering around, looking for something to steady myself on.
Tonight there is just enough light from the Moon peeking through the night-time storm clouds that I can see not too bad, the night-time sounds of Nature are finally getting into my foggy brain as well. "I need to drink some water" This I say to her directly and she must have understood me this time, because thankfully her head is now at a normal angle and I am holding onto the side of the Van to steady myself.
My brain is still foggy and sick, I climb into my Truck Camper with Zeldy and drink lots of water, drink water for quite a long time actually! How long have I been out of it. Must change my clothes these are disgusting, full of puke and stuff, the stuff we will not get into in much detail but suffice it to say, I need to wash up badly and so does the Dog. There is Wet Dog smell then there is Yuk Dog smell, well thinking on this now, must have been Yuk Human smell too!
All I can manage is a quick spray and wipe down of both her and me, we are both so tired, sick and groggy? What is going on?
So is this Day 2 still or Day 3?
My last day before this sickness was still being sick and doing tests with the Doc and the Specialists. I remember being in my Truck Camper, wheezing again trying to find my breath the dog wheezing as well, so I gave her a puff or two that day/evening as well.
That day the Radio News Channel 680 News in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) was talking about the mysterious sickness that was hitting the area, it had started the day before in Asia and Eastern Europe as well as the Middle East! Odd I do not remember a similar news report before the Doctor day. I do remember the Doc's office was full to overflowing and I remember the Doctor saying it was going to be a very short chat as he was so overbooked today and there were so many walk-ins. He also stated they were turning most away and told them to go to Emergency at the nearest hospital. Odd I do not remember there being reports like this before this day, but then again I was sick for about 6 weeks with some mysterious Viral Infection in my Lungs.
Need to take my expensive puffer again, it is hard to breath still or again I have not decided. It is getting slowly, very slowly better, but not so much. Might as well give the Dog another quick dose, she is wheezing and having a hard time breathing, but not as much as I remember her having a hard time. Typical Fur Kid she is, hard to get to take any medications even when she knows it helps her out. Sleep again after puffer time, so tired always so tired.
Day 3 OK up and about lets call this day 3 for lack of better understandings about things.
Weird, everything was so weird today and thinking back on it, it was weird for the last 4 or 5 days. This is supper time, I am writing this on my laptop, did all 3 days right now as I think I will need to keep a Journal entry going as many days as I can do so. All electronics seem to work fine, though the internet is sketchy and my Tethering from my I Phone is sketchy too. Not surprising really since I can find no people!
Did you see that one coming, I sure as Heck Fire did not! Now let's be honest here, Heck Fire is not what I said, but trying to turn over a new leaf and not swear at all. Well at least not on paper anyways. Today has been so different and so weird and just so, I am looking for words here folks, help me out will yaw. For an ex Bushman, soldier, small business owner, then turned survivalist recently Prepper and Permaculturalist I am at a loss for adequate words, hopefully the more I write the less that will afflict me. Afflict me, weird everything is weird and afflictions seem to be what it is all about. Today's journal entry will be the chronological order of Weirdness as it happened or as close to as it happened as I am able to understand, reflect on this weirdness and write it down. I am writing in my laptop because I spell like crap, oops lets find a better way to say that, later.
Chronological order of the Day 3 weirdness of Waking.
Getting out of bed as fast as possible to pee, man I am in pain I need to pee so badly! Well so does Zeldy I think she is what woke me up, normally she is hard to wake up early in the morning, I had nicknamed her the Camel. Just try to get her up before 8-9 to go pee, yaw right.
We hop out of the Camper and both run to different spots to pee, thankfully sometimes she stands there and watches me pee, it kind of freaks me out a bit, today she barely made it to her grassy spot at all. Finally I am waking up and finally finished peeing, that felt like it took forever and the pain is lessening in my lower abdomen, so that's good. It is very quiet, is it Sunday I think to myself, I can hear the sounds of Nature, the sounds of the farm animals on the other side of the barn, chickens and Cows but no human sounds.
This is odd, I really need to clean up the messes we made while being sick. The both of us sick? That is an odd thought as well, my brain is still kinda foggy and disjointed here, so let's go look around a bit before I get the pleasure of cleaning up I think to myself.
Weird still or again, looks like nobody has been here working on the equipment for days, the drop deck float they were working on near my camper is unfinished and in fact it looks like they just left everything were it was, which is odd in itself. Normally they put things away every night! My buddy Mick, the Landlord and his crew were working on fixing up equipment before the snow flies, everything is just sitting out, tools, air compressor, the box truck and the paint guns with paint cans. Weird.
Zeldy is looking around and growling faintly I can hear the Coyotes in the near distance which is odd as this is daytime, not sure of the time, but the last I normally hear them is at daybreak and I think that was a few hours ago! Weird
As I take a look around from the ridge that the old farm sits on, in the distance I can see that there is no traffic on either of the roads, and can not remember hearing any traffic on the roads since I woke up from what I am now going to call the Waking.
We need some answers to this weirdness, so I go to the Van thinking I will move it up out of the mess and listen to the radio, hear what is on the news. Well the van barely starts, which is weird as the new battery normally fires up the motor right away. I move the Van up the drive so I can keep it running and look at the other side of the farm and down that side of the ridge overlooking the town. I work my Van slowly by the bigger Cube Van which is sitting open, the back door rolled up and everything wet inside and out. Weird again, I think weird.
I pause at the gate, put the Van in park look around and turn the radio on. Emergency broadcast on 680 news, the local rock station, Emergency broadcast, Q107 emergency broadcast, this is so weird.
Damn it Dog.. stop eating grass! The oldies station is playing music though, that's good right?
OK first thing, lets grab some clean cloths and go to Mick's house and find out what is going on and ask for a shower, which I have never done before, but then again, I have never seen them leave tools out and nobody come to check on me and Zeldy either, weird.. gotta stop saying and thinking weird!
So I grabbed some clean clothes my shaving and showing kit, some dog food and headed to Mick's house. Gate open, not locked Weirder, yuppers weirder is better now.
No smoke rising from any of the houses on the road and most are on wood heat. No cars on the side road which is normal it is a quiet street but the main road that is below, is empty! Why is the road empty? The corner lights are flashing red as in all stop 4 way stop, weirder. What day is this I ask out loud, Zeldy sort of grunts and sniffs at the same time, she does not know.
Damn forgot my watch, the time on the radio says it is 11 am, getting going very slowly today am I.
Mick's yard at his house is full of vehicles like normal but nobody is around, nobody in the shop, nobody in the house! The door is open, he might be my friend and I am friendly with the family but I do not enter their house ever unless there is someone home. The back door is always open, but I have never been past the kitchen table, we normally sit there and chat, sometimes his wife joins us, most times she does not. His briefcase is there, but nobody is home! I am going in, no answer, no answer to my calling out, even though my voice has not fully recovered yet from the weird lung infection sickness, someone should be able to hear me in the house.
Puffer before going upstairs to check, weirdness abounds! Nobody was driving on the street, there were no cars on the street either, now it is a main street and I have on occasion seen no cars or trucks on it, but that was normally only at about 3 am when I was coming back from work, nobody upstairs either. Where is Angel their dog, maybe she is out at the family farm with some of the family, well first off, I am taking a shower in the basement shower!
Well showered, and changed into clean clothes. Looked around again, Dog gets cold shower from the hose, not so nice, but damn she is one smelly
Zeldy, ha.. first time I have laughed in a few days, it sounds kind of hollow and weak in the ally between the house and the neighbour's house.
Left note on kitchen table, propped up on the briefcase so anyone can see it. Left cell phone number on it as well. Down to the corner, south of the house the four corners all have strip malls, grocery stores, pharmacy, a new WalMart in the old Zellers store and no people!
OK, look in the cars, no people! No people in the McDonald's as well, wonder if the coffee is still on, even stale coffee would be good right now, even cold coffee would be good right now!
Well there is some in the Urn and some not made in one of the coffee makers, set to go but not turned on, so I flipped the switch to on and went to get my Dog! Under the circumstances methinks she is now allowed into McDonald's at least in the lobby area. So out to the Van, put her on a leash, the last thing I need is her to Find someone and scare the crap out of them by runny up and barking in their face or faces.
Left the Van running, another strange fact, better than saying weird all the time, the fuel is almost on empty, I had filled it two days before the strange sickness overtook me, so what was I doing, how long was I out, and what did I do with the Van, run it to keep warm in my fussiness? The Drivers window and the drivers side rear window were both open up a bit, good seeing as normally the prevailing winds come from the passenger side, as I normally back my Van into my parking spot. Everything that was on my sleeping bench was piled in the passenger side seat and foot space. Anybody hitching would need to wait about 10 min while I make room for them!
Left another note at McDonald's saying sorry I made the Urn of fresh coffee, filled two large cups, left money on the counter to pay for them. Man those things are huge! My head is pounding, hopefully the Tylenol Migraine and the Two large MckyDs coffee will sort that out. The note said, "sorry can not find anyone in here or outside, need coffee for my head, left money on counter to pay for them, including enough to cover taxes I hope? Left Cell phone number for Manager to please call and anybody else to call me, anybody else!?"
Looked in most of the shops, went into the new WalMart, there is always someone in there, empty! Everywhere Empty, nobody, nobody in sight at all.
Am I crazy? Am I in some sort of medicine induced coma? Am I in my camper sleeping in some weird dream, or in the Hospital in some weird coma dream? WTF what is going on???
Scanning all radio stations now, all or most either on Emergency Broadcast stay in your home, authorities are working on the problem! Or the station is static, or playing music in some sort of endless loop or someone maybe hooked up their Ipod so the end of the world would have some music until the power went out. Is this some sort of hellish dream, seeing as on one station there is Rap Crap and on another station is Opera, man I hate those sounds, bad words in front of decent to great music!
Am I dead? Is this Hell, is this the Nether World, the transition world? Ouch, Zeldy looked at me funny again, I had just did the pinch thing on my arm and pricked myself with a knife in the finger tip. Well it must be Hell or the Nether World, there is blood! I am not sure if you bleed in a dream, even in a coma dream would there be blood? If there was a coma dream about Zombies I guess there would be blood though. This Waking Dream or Waking to a weird new and strange world there are no Zombies, yet and nobody else yet as well!
Went into Supermarket and got some food, ate from the can, damn my stomach is empty. Grabbed a large bag of Dog food as Zeldy's food was out as well. "Lets go look some more for people or dogs, or anything!" I said to her quietly.
Hwy 2 in Courtice was like a spread out parking lot, looks like people just stopped their cars in the middle of the road or pulled over to the side. Some doors were open, some closed, all with nobody in them.
I pulled out my BOB (Bug Out Bag) put my two large knives on my belt, and my favourite pocket knife in my pocket! Drove into Oshawa, more empty cars everywhere but I can still get through, looks like what ever happened most where at home or it was very early in the morning, say 3-4 ish as the streets are empty.
Time to start looking in houses now! Dangerous, but it needs to be done and that is one of the reasons that I put on my fighting knives. Since this is Canada, they are in the vehicle and shorter than 8″ in blade length except for my Kukri Machete, which is now sitting loose in the sheath beside between the passenger seat and middle console. x
"knock, knock" I say out loud and do at the same time; "is there anybody here?"
No answer, no people, no cats that I can see but they hide mostly anyways, and so far, luckily for me, no Dogs.
Picked 15 houses at random and no people, no dead people and luckily no Zombie types either. I did not have the knives out, just ready, loose in the sheath in case of sudden surprise attacks. To any future readers, remember this is Canada and permit to carry firearms is very hard to come by with way too much paperwork. Since it is Canada, no guns in the Vehicle normally and no concealed or open carry handguns either.
WTF.. Weirdness.. Strangeness all rolled up into one!
Phone, call 911, no answer, call 0 no answer, call 411 automated, so ask for police station, no answer! Damn what is going on.
Thinking on it, I had not seen any cop cars on the roads, where were they all? So I went to the Hospital, better there than go to the Police station and get shot, I thought!
Well the parking lots were full, the Emergency areas, were full of Cop Cars, Ambulances and private Ambulances as well as cars. Some still had flashing lights, some the batteries were probably dead and One Prius Car was still running, I guess they do get good fuel mileage. The smart car on the other hand was not running! Humph
This time, I let Zeldy come in with me, in case of any surprises she would be able to help me out and hopefully be able to sniff out others as well.

We're sure you've spotted the gorgeous sheer skirts and tops gliding down the runways at Gucci or Michael Kors and thought, "Interesting, but I could never wear that, as I'm not a fan of showing my underthings to the public." We share the same sentiment and wouldn't be caught dead with our knickers on display, but since we love the trend - especially the peek-a-boo pieces by Dallas label Nha Khanh - we've put together a style guide to help you rock the see-through look in style.
To shop the look: Try Cusp by Neiman Marcus for sheer tops, like Alice + Olivia's sheer striped button front version. Head to Barney's to snag ultra-cool, sheer sweater dresses by Helmut Lang, and hit BCBG to shop our favorite see-through pieces such as the "Le Village" color-block chiffon tunic.
What to wear underneath your stylishly sheer items: We recommend basic tanks, slips, tap-shorts, and body-hugging underpinnings like those from Spanx. If you plan to exuberantly collect sheer pieces for Fall layering, buy a selection of each undergarment including barely-there tanks in black and nude, as well as basic slips or figure-enhancing versions in dark and light options. If you're on a budget, shop for slips at any vintage store; they all boast a good selection.
Finding fabulous underpinnings: We love the soft and versatile collaborative collection Abi & John from Abi Ferrin and John Piermarini, available at new boutique, Piermarini, in Dallas. Trousseau on Oak Lawn carries a great collection of high-end options and tap-shorts, and, of course, a wide assortment of basic slips and tanks are always available via Victoria's Secret, Gap, and department stores like Dillard's and Nordstrom.
Accessorizing your sheer pieces: We love to keep the sweetly sexy sheer look a bit edgy with bold accessories like aggressive, platform heels and studded clutches. And when Dallas' interminable Summer is over, layer your sheer items with cardigans, blazers, and jeans for a chic, eclectic style.
