The Symptom of Being Tired – Alzheimer's Video by Rick Phelps
This is the 7th video by Rick Phelps that I have posted. Rick is the founder of Memory People, an on-line support group for patients, caregivers, family members, and advocates who have been touched by Alzheimer's. Rick was diagnosed with Early On-Set Alzheimer's Disease in 2010 at the age of 57. Since then he has devoted himself to raising awareness about this terrible disease.
Today's video was made on November 9, 2012. In it Rick talks about how tired he feels and tells caregivers not to worry if their loved one sleeps a lot. He also talks briefly about nightmares and driving, and he talks about Sam, his companion dog. (more…)

"You're unique, and needed. While the rest of the universe may weigh heavy on your shoulders your existence matters every single second of every single day. You deserve love, you deserve life. You matter."
Share this
INSTAGRAM: PersoNatalie
1. Where are you from and where do you live now?
I spent my tiny human and youth days in the bustling metropolis of Odessa, Texas. Now I'm a gypsy between Dallas and Denton, Texas after a very brief stay in Boston, MA.
2. Tell me a little bit about what you spend most of your days doing.
I spend most of my time over analyzing, daydreaming about the ocean, writing post it note confessions, or educating myself on the world. I've been an activist for many moons now, and when I'm not working for the people, and with the people, I'm still working for the people by working for a group of suregeons in Dallas, TX.
3. Give us a little insight into your backstory/upbringing…
I am the granddaughter, niece, great granddaughter, and cousin of multiple southern baptist pastors. I was raised to love Jesus, and worry about the after life more so than the present. My father was physically and emotionally abusive and since my mom sang Sunday morning solos, and was a pastors kid, we lived a very phony life to the outside world that didn't reside in my home. I was homeschooled most of elementary because it was another way for my father to control me. I was at church any time their was an event, revival, or even a strangers baby shower. My Mother was the only sane one, literally, but also took the abuse from my father, as well as knowing about affairs he was having, because christians don't get divorced. Eventually he left us, and life changed for the better.
4. What is your religious background?
5. On a scale of 1 – 5 how supportive was your family when you came out?
6. Do you have a message to kids out there who come out and might not have the support of their families/friends?
My message to all of you would come in the form of a jolly, warm, southern hug honestly, but with words, I'd want others to know that you aren't alone. Even at 30 I feel alone often, misunderstood, misrepresented, but there is always hope. Sometimes the word hope is cliche, and we find it in greeting cards or splashed on bumper stickers. There is authentic hope in you and in our community. You're unique, and needed. While the rest of the universe may weigh heavy on your shoulders your existence matters every single second of every single day. You deserve love, you deserve life. You fucking matter.
7. Why do you feel that the simple message of the Promote Love Movement is important?
Love is the final answer in life to all we do. I have worked for and with many organizations, I even started my own. I've put on pride events in Denton, I've traveled with my best friend Tempest, all over this state and others for our community, I've put on extravagant events in Dallas for HRC, spoken in schools, I went viral for buying some homophones dinner, I was nominated, Texan of the year in 2016. I recently have helped my girlfriend face and fight cancer and THAT has been the greatest honor of my life. No award, no newspaper clipping, or magazine. I even turned down a position in activism I desperately wanted, so that I could be with her, for even the small details like rubbing her feet or making up ioidine free recipes and watching her face light up when she laughs. I have learned how to love in the most real way I ever have. Selflessly. It's the greatest form of activism and love. Never underestimate your actions, even when they seem minuscule, or it's just another sucky Monday at work. Silence cannot overcome when our truth of love is loud.
8. What kind of person do you want to be remembered as when you die?
When I pass away, I would only like to be remembered as someone who wasn't a hero, beautiful, or smart, but someone who authentically lived true to themselves and fought for the people around them. I'd also like to be remembered for my sick JFK memorabilia.
9. How do you feel like growing up in church played a part in shaping who you are?
I could rant here for an extended amount of time, but my experiences in the baptist church were pretty awful and there were so many churches with having family in the ministry. I went through hell with some of them, but I learned how to defend myself and question what wasn't fair. I played guitar in a Christian band in high school so churches were where you could find me, playing praise and worship. I got to play for, and interact with girls who needed to see a female influence I think. I also got to take the pieces of Christianity that are beautiful and apply those to my life and leave the rest for the birds.
10. Do you still attend church/religious gatherings?
If it is an LGBQTIA function at a Unitarian church, I'm front row.

HI- I've had this client now for many years. She has chosen to use the services of others for various aspects of her business and it has worked out until recently. There is a lack of communication and a lack of role definition on the part of my client. So, I shared with her that I would like her business and would be interested in knowing how best to do that and at the best rate for her so that I can get some of my roles in the project back because it has become quite convoluted with two other people involved. For instance I created a pdf form and it was rather painstaking. My work was then handed off to Person A who was to make aesthetic edits to the Word document (after I transformed it already to a PDF and added the form elements on some 30 pages(!). Then I get the new PDF back from Person A - minus any form elements but with the aesthetic changes and the Word doc, and am asked to make some more edits to remove some text. It's a mess. First off, all edits should have been complete in the Word doc BEFORE it ever went to a PDF and form fields were added. My client doesn't understand that is how it works, plus I got no communication from her about the aesthetic changes, just an email from Person A asking me for the original documents. I thought Person A was going to ad the form fields back into the PDF as would be expected but no. Person B is handling the website. I built the original website which my client was happy with for many years. She asked me if I could redesign it and I enthusiastically replied yes. Then poof, I find out Person B got the job. Person B works with or for Person A so that is likely how that transpired. But now I have to add blog posts to the website and because Person B did not do some things correctly, the formatting on the posts is off. I tried to get this cleared up to no avail. I do "work well with others" and am fine with others doing their part, but the overlap has caused problems and there is so little communication and we have never had a conference call or any kind of role definition. I would like to tell my client: no more tasks that I do not get to work on start to finish because under these circumstances that seems like the only solution. I'm on the verge of saying this is just not worth it any more. The above examples are not the only ones. Thoughts?

What Experts Say Mothers Have Wrong about ADHD
ADHD (attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder) is a very common diagnosis among young children these days. Adults are also diagnosed but not quite as often. There are myths about ADHD that you may hear from time to time. Here are five myths and the real side to each:
1. Only kids have ADHD symptoms: While the average age that ADHD symptoms can develop is 7 years old, there is no age cap on how long those symptoms last. Studies have shown that children who have ADHD carry symptoms on into their teen years and at least 50% carry the symptoms into adulthood.
2. ADHD isn't a real disorder, it is just a way to prescribe medication: Yes, children with ADHD are hyper and many teachers and parents have a hard time adjusting to the symptoms. However a diagnosis of ADHD is not just a way to push medication on the children so that they are easier to deal with. ADHD is recognized in the DSM as a disorder and has been shown to be a disorder that is genetic. It is recognized by the U.S. Surgeon General and the National Institute of Health.
3. Adults who have ADHD aren't usually successful: Adam Levine of Maroon 5 has ADHD. Solange Knowles has ADHD. Olympic Gold Medalist Michael Phelps has ADHD. These three people are proof that you can do amazing things even if you are struggling with ADHD symptoms. Many adults find coping mechanisms to help them lessen the impact that the symptoms have on their lives. Some find that medication is helpful, but this is not always the case

A Case of Folliculosebaceous Cystic Hamartoma: DISCUSSION
Clinically, FSCH is an asymptomatic, slow-grow- ing, small papule or nodule usually occurring on the head or neck areas, but other uncommon locations such as the upper back, forearm, labia majora, and the scalp have been reported. The tumor size is usually 0.5-1.5 cm in diameter, but 2 cases of a giant variant have been reported. One was a 7.5 cm in diameter, exophytic, lobulated mass on the back and the other one was a 15 cm-sized multinodular plaque on the arm.
Originally, the term hamartoma meant a benign tumor-like nodule composed of an overgrowth of mature cells and tissues which normally occur in the affected area. It usually presents at the time of birth, and does not show active growth after birth. Hence, hamartoma used in FSCH is actually a misnomer. However, the term "hamartoma", Kimura used in his original article, is intended to convey the fact that a jumble of tissue elements is normally present at the site of the lesion. Thus, FSCH is thought to be just merely one of the epidermal appendage tumors appearing in postnatal life and also having a potential for size enlargement. The tendency of tumor enlargement might be stronger in unusual areas such as the back, the labia, and the extremities and can result in morphologic changes including polypoid, plaque- like, or multinodular growth.
Although it was not a giant lesion and had none of the above morphologic changes, the tumor in our patient had continuously grown to 3 cm in diameter by the time of diagnosis. Because of its rarity, the importance of a large or giant variant is still unknown except for the cosmetic or therapeutic aspects.
Since FSCH carries no specific clinical characteristics, various tumors may be suspected prior to histopathologic examination. While intradermal nevus, neurofibroma, pilomatricoma and other adnexal tumors are clinical differential diagnoses for a typical FSCH lesion, pilar cyst, epidermal cyst or lipoma were suspected for our scalp lesion. Whatever the clinical impressions may be, the correct final diagnosis of FSCH can be made without difficulty from the well-known histopathologic features.
We report an unusual case of FSCH showing a relatively large, 3 X 2.5 cm sized, smooth, subcutaneous nodule on the occipital area of the scalp, an uncommon location for FSCH.

PM Modi likely to receive French President in Chandigarh
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to receive French President Francois Hollande in Chandigarh on January 24.The French president, who will be the chief guest at the Republic Day Parade in New Delhi, will land in Chandigarh first to begin his India tour.india Updated: Jan 12, 2016 12:30 IST
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to receive French President Francois Hollande in Chandigarh on January 24.The French president, who will be the chief guest at the Republic Day Parade in New Delhi, will land in Chandigarh first to begin his India tour.
Police sources said that Modi will receive Hollande at the technical area of the Chandigarh Air Force Station (AFS). Both leaders will spend next few hours in Chandigarh before leaving for New Delhi in the evening.
Hollande had expressed his desire to visit Chandigarh, one of the few planned cities in the country, designed by famous French architect Le Corbusier in the 1950s and 1960s.
President Hollande is likely to visit Chandigarh's 'Capitol Complex', Rock Garden, Sector 17 Plaza (the city's commercial and business centre), Tagore Theatre and the Le Corbusier Centre in Sector 19 (where the master-planner and his team worked and conceptualized the city).
The exact itinerary of Hollande's visit will be finalised on Wednesday and Thursday (January 13-14) when the advance team, including security officials, of the French President arrive here, a senior official of the Chandigarh Administration said.
The French Ambassador to India had recently visited the city in preparation for the president's visit.
Preparations are in full swing and security arrangements are being worked out for the French President's visit. A conference is also likely to be held at the hotel.
Sources said the French President will stay at the Taj Hotel in Chandigarh's Sector 17 area for the few hours that he will be in the city.
Last year, when Modi made his first visit to the city after becoming prime minister, the city's administration was reprimanded by the union home ministry for going over-board on the security part and virtually locking in the entire city.
The over-zealous administration had ordered shutting down of schools and sealed certain roads and parts of the city. Even the city's cremation ground became out of bounds for city residents.
All these measures, which harassed residents, drew considerable flak, forcing Modi to tweet and apologise for the same and even order a probe into the matter.

Hello again peeps!! I am back on the blog to continue from where I left last.
As we set upon our quest to explore the mansions nestled in the neighbouring villages, out first stop was Athangudi. The beautiful palace here more than deserves its own blogpost! It is a fitting example of maximalism at its absolute best!
The stunning ceiling and entrance give one a glimpse of the view that awaits.
Stepping into the main hall, one really needs to pause and take a moment to appreciate all the intricate details of the ornate craftsmanship that surrounds. There is so much beauty to take in that its almost overwhelming and hard to put into words, so I will simply let the pictures do the talking!
The way to the palace was lined with many small Athangudi tile factories…crafting these geometric beauties out of bright paints, local sand and some good old cement. It is almost impossible to believe that a process as simple as this can produce something so very exquisite and durable, capable of making the most expensive marble floors pale in comparison.
As no holiday to the south of India is ever complete without a customary visit to a temple…so with traditional flowers in hair and coconut in hand I then walked into Pillayarpatti, a rock cut temple that houses a much revered Ganesha deity, 6 feet tall and growing!!
And because my old unending love for antiques refuses to fade, ignoring the very vocal protests of my four year old, I religiously marched into all the antique shops of Karaikudi one after the other!
These were all packed to the rafters with old wares from Chettiar homes. Ceramics from China and Japan…row after row of enamelled cookware from Czechoslovakia, original Belgian glassware…traditional Indian brassware. Most were once gifted as dowry to the brides of the time! This crazy mix of antique odds and ends originally sourced from around the world can put any modern day shopaholic to shame!
On our way back we visited the Mahalakshmi Weaving Centre at Kanadukathan. To see and buy soft cotton saris being woven on the traditional loom by friendly elderly women of the village, who have been doing it for over 3 decades!!
Come day 3, and we set our sights on the nearby villages of Kothamangalam and Kadiapatti.
The former is home to a beautiful and quaint heritage home called Saratha Vilas, run by two very pleasant French men and their three friendly dogs! Their potent coffee, sweet pies and tastefully done up quirky interiors turned out to be an absolute visual and sensorial treat!
We then ambled along to the town of Kadiapatti, which houses many heritage homes. It heartbreaking to see that most lie in ruins today except for the glorious Chidambara Vilas, which has been immaculately restored to its former glory and turned partially into an upscale heritage hotel!
We savoured one of the most memorable traditional Chettiar spreads of our trip here, though I must say that food anywhere in the Chettinad is lipsmacking and does not disappoint!
And so with our bellies full and hearts joyous we called it a day!
After 3 full days of having walked the long winding bylanes of many of these villages steeped in rich history…the Chettinad for me turned out to be a opportunity to experience a lost piece of our beautiful heritage and practice some slow living…and slow travel…offering a much needed departure from the daily chaotic humdrum of city life!!
I left the place, mesmerised with the immense beauty of a bygone era and a heartfelt wish that more of these beautiful homes find people or enterprising
partners to care for them…and stop these once bustling villages from turning into ghost towns.
Till next time then…I will show up again when I have something beautiful to share with all you lovely folks. Sending everyone much love!!

White Fluffy Clouds

Posted in WikinutWritingPoetry
Inspired by photo 12 of Cassia's. About remembering the small things and little things around us.
White Fluffy Clouds
White fluffy clouds,
Stretched across the sky,
Reaching out to all the sides,
The sky seems so endless,
Where there is no beginning,
Or end,
Where all there is the vastness,
Of the world around,
Lost in the moment,
Looking at the wonder,
As the white fluffy clouds,
Roll slowly across the sky,
White fluffy clouds do not care,
What is going on in the world below,
They just roll across the sky,
Not knowing how much time has passed,
Or what matters to us,
They keep on rolling right above us,
Time is endless,
Time flies for the clouds,
Because time means nothing,
To something that lasts,
Day upon day,
Moment upon moment,
Century upon century,
White fluffy clouds,
Stretched across the sky,
We can look up at the vastness,
Wonder with beauty,
Wonder with delight,
Wonder with the depth of our being,
What wonderful sights we see every day,
But do we truly take notice?
Do we truly try to even understand?
For just a moment?
For just a second?
Do we look up?
Do we look around?
Do we realize the beauty?
Of the vastness around us?
Or are we too busy?
To see how white fluffy clouds,
Stretch across the sky,
Rolling through,
The sky of our world,
Above us high,
Take a moment now,
And be thankful for the little things,
All around us every day.

It's that time of year when children's minds turn to thoughts of costumes and candy! Throw a Halloween party that's more treat than trick with our family-friendly Halloween party tips.
What to Wear to a Halloween Party
Make sure you invite guests to wear costumes! Nothing adds to the magic of a Halloween party like costumed party goers. If young children will be attending, you may want to request that costumes not be too scary; you don't want preschoolers crying at the sight of a teenager in a Freddy Krueger mask.
Halloween Party Decorations
Kids love Halloween decorations! You really can't overdo it. Copious twists of black and orange crepe paper streamers make a great start. For a not so scary Halloween party, use lots of pumpkins and paper plates with smiling jack o'lanterns. For slightly older kids who don't mind a little spookiness, drape fake spider webs from corners and use poster putty to stick fake spiders to the wall. (The more the better! Clump them or place them one behind the other in a curvy trail.) Hang rubber bats or paper ghosts from the ceiling. Have fun with it!
Halloween-Themed Food and Drink
There are plenty of festive Halloween snacks you can serve that aren't candy! Make deviled eggs creepy by topping them with spiders made from olives—half a black olive for the body, plus halved olive slices for the legs (recipe).
Add more spiders to your buffet with cracker spider sandwiches! Spread peanut butter (or sunbutter, for guests allergic to nuts) on a Ritz cracker, place four pretzel sticks on each side for legs, then top with another Ritz cracker. Use more peanut butter to attach raisins for eyes.
For an adorable fruit platter, peel clementines and place a celery stick inside each so it pokes out the top to make little pumpkins! Banana halves with chocolate chips for eyes and mouths make healthful ghosts (recipe here).
Impress your guests with super easy monster doughnuts! Place plastic vampire teeth in the doughnut hole and candy eyes above. The vampire teeth make a fun party favor as well!
Make any punch spooky by getting creative with the ice. Freeze water in a latex glove, then remove the glove to create a frozen hand. Freeze plastic spiders in ice cubes and toss them in as well (recipe here).
Fun Halloween Party Games and Activities
Guests young and old will enjoy the classic touch and feel mystery box game! You likely remember this one from your childhood. Place innocuous items in bowls, then cover each with a box with a hole cut out through which party-goers stick their hands, and tell them they're touching something creepy.
Try peeled grapes for eyes, fresh green beans for witch's fingers, a soft flour tortilla for skin, a boiled tomato with the peel removed for a heart, cooked and cooled spaghetti for worms, and twisted chenille stems for spiders. (This may be too scary for the very young. Use your judgment.)
Don't forget another classic autumn party game: bobbing for apples! Make sure to use apples with stems so your guests have a fighting chance, because this game is hard. An easier version that children in particular may appreciate is bobbing for doughnuts, where you tie doughnuts to a tree branch so they hang below, and guests try to eat them with their hands behind their backs!
Elementary school aged children will enjoy a mummy relay race. Teams split in half on either end of the racing path, and teammates at the starting end wrap one player's limbs and torso in toilet paper so she looks like a mummy. Once the "mummy" is thoroughly wrapped, she runs to the finish line, where the teammates on that side unwrap her and start to wrap the next mummy. This game makes a great photo op! (game instructions)
Even younger guests will enjoy a broom and pumpkin relay race! Each team gets one broom and one pumpkin, and the players use the broom to "sweep" the pumpkin to the finish line, where another teammate takes over and "sweeps" it back.
Pumpkin decorating is another fun, cheap, indoor/outdoor activity for all ages! Provide small pumpkins for each guest (the tiny ones work fine) and an assortment of art supplies with which to decorate them. You may want to include paint, wiggly eyes, glue, colored feathers, chenille sticks, glitter, Sharpies, and stickers. You could even have a contest with categories for "scariest," "cutest," "most colorful," etc. Young guests will love taking these home as party favors.
Whether you're throwing a Halloween party for preschoolers or middle schoolers, there should be some party ideas on this list that your guests will enjoy. Have fun making a Halloween-themed buffet (and hearing your guests ooh and aah over the cute snacks!) and take plenty of pictures of the party games. This will be a Halloween party to remember!

Recently, the obsession with beauty and colour palettes have given the rise to colour filters – from Instagram to Facebook to Snapchat, all of our social media platforms are consistently working on providing the perfect shade or colour.
In a world where filter-less pictures cease to exist, here are the 11 most colourful and beautiful places in the world where nature has painted the world, and no expertise in Photoshop can even come close.
1. Tulip fields, Holland
The tulip fields of Holland aren't known for just one flower, they are also famous for their daffodils and hyacinths. But the tulips are the creme de la creme of these fields. The colours along the water and the Dutch countryside remind you of an innocent colouring book with splashes of colourful crayons. These fields are best explored on bicycles.
2. Cinque Terre, Italy

I'm always grateful for being a born-and-raised Miami local. Even as an everyday girl there are perks! This weekend I had the pleasure of spending the day with some of my city's best fashion bloggers at Bella Beach Club. I'm proud to name drop this list of fashion connoisseurs: Simonette Pereira – Co-Founder of Miami Style Mafia, Ginger Harris – also known as Electric Blogarella, Maria Tettamanti – also known as The Wordy Girl, Annie Vasquez – also known as the Fashion Poet, Daniela Ramirez – also known as Nanys Klozet and Ana Ortuno from Chic Streets and Eats.
Danielle, my co-worker, and I met the girls at Bella Beach Club on Sunday for a fun-in-the-sun try on party. When the ladies arrived they were truly like 6 kids in a candy store. A Willy Wonka candy store I feel. He is, after all, the master of his craft. The most coveted looks: the Basket Weave Maxi Dress, the Honey Comb Midkini and basically anything from The Collection.
I actually own the Basket Weave Maxi myself, so I'll tell anyone who's listening how comfortable it is, even if it means gaining a dress twin. Personally, I feel like our resemblance is uncanny.
We had a great time watching the ladies wrestle over looks… Fine, they had civil discussions about them. Let us know your favorite styles!

When it comes to vacationing at a ski resort, you might as well choose one with soul -- and a really cool town.
If you're jonesing for the ultimate ski getaway that's filled with big mountain history and local flair, there's a chance you'll be gravely disappointed when showing up at certain resorts. Ski resorts, we've found, develop in one of two ways: they (a) grow in a "purpose built" manner, where the town and village develop as a result of the ski resort or (b) develop after the town has already grown its roots. The latter resorts are where you'll find authentic mountain town culture steeped in tight communities and a consistent hum of love for the mountains. They're the resorts with eco-conscious entrepreneurs, craft beer loving hipsters, unpretentious art enthusiasts and local kids who can ski circles around any tourist that loads the lift. And be warned: a ski vacation to any one of these places may very well cause you to pack up your bags and make a swift exit from the rat race to a permanent home in the mountains. Here are our top 8 ski resorts for mountain town culture:
Jackson Hole Mountain Resort
Jackson, WY
Jackson Hole Mountain Resort was founded in the mid 1960s by Paul McCollister and friends. In 1966 the aerial tram began taking skiers to the peak of Rendezvous Mountain, and extreme skiers started taking note of the vastness and challenging terrain of the resort. The resort itself lies in Teton Village, which is 12 mi from downtown Jackson. You won't find a "hole" in the valley: this is the term that trappers who passed through the place in the late 1800s had for a flat area surrounded by mountains. What you will find are hardcore big mountain skiers, gorgeous mansions owned by wealthy vacationers from across the globe, a quaint downtown with old fashioned town square and plenty of wellness buffs sporting yoga leggings and locally woven beanies. Jackson is a beautiful place full of beautiful people; drop into one of the local bars at après to get a glimpse of the "my life is your vacation" vibe.
Best For: The slightly casual, very refined ski vacation to (sort of) Wild West.
Nelson, BC
We're not surprised if you've never heard of Whitewater: all the more reason to go ski it. Average annual snowfall of this small Canadian resort regularly tops out at 40 ft, and because it doesn't maintain the high profile flair of more popular Rocky Mountain range resorts, you're guaranteed faceshots every single run. And then, of course: there's Nelson, Whitewater's hometown. Nelson is home to climbers, bikers, skiers, dancers, artists, and holistic health enthusiasts. It's an old mining and lumber town dotted with historic and colourful Victorian buildings that look almost too picturesque to be real. But real they are: as much so as the good old Canadian friendliness. Just 30 mi north of the U.S. border, it's an easy (and beautiful) drive from mountain west cities.
Best For: An under-the-radar phenomenal ski getaway.
Steamboat Springs, CO
I first passed through Steamboat on my original migration out West. I was on my way to Jackson Hole and dropped off a friend who would be spending his first winter there. It took serious willpower after a weekend in the hot springs and indulging in delicious craft beer to keep driving. Steamboat is unique to Colorado resorts in that it is set in a valley of its own, and therefore maintains its own character away from the rush of the I-70 corridor. The resort is known for its mellow tree skiing and overall relaxed vibes. Steamboat Springs is an old cowboy town that maintains a regular working schedule: most downtown shops and restaurants have been operating for many years under local families. For the best glimpse into the spirit of the community, attend one of the winter festival events – like the mid-winter ski joring competition through the main street.
Best For: Classic Colorado mountain town stay, minus the major resort vibes.
North Conway, NH
Attitash is largely a local's mountain, but with all the amenities of a major resort. The Grand Summit Hotel, located slopeside and boasting a variety of ultra-modern rooms, draws ski vacationers from across New England. The snowmaking system is consistently ranked in the top 5 in the region, ensuring skiable terrain regardless of temperamental New England winter weather. Before western resorts were developed, North Conway was a mecca for recreational skiing, and continues to be a top destination for New Englanders looking for a quick getaway. An easy 7 mile drive from Attitash, North Conway boasts an historic (and very cutesy) downtown, with pubs boasting live music, fine art galleries, craft stores with New Hampshire made goods, and an award-winning cupcake shop. Stroll the streets with gourmet coffee, then take a horse-drawn sleigh ride through the countryside. Oh, how New England.
Best For: the local New Englander ski weekend – especially with families.
Bridger Bowl
Bozeman, MT
Bridger Bowl is truly a locals' hill: The Bridger Bowl Association was granted 501(c)(4) nonprofit status in 1971, and the ski area runs on direction from current members. The mountain is small but fierce, with delightfully slow lifts servicing beginner terrain on the lower half of the hill and more modern infrastructure serving the advanced, off-piste slopes towards the top. 16 mi down the pass is Bozeman, home to Montana State University, an historic downtown, and suburban sprawl that adds a touch of eye soreness as well as a sense of reality. Bozeman is a city first, and a ski town second: major live music acts swoop through beautiful performance venues, you can now find a craft brewery around every major street corner. You can also find a solid core of die-hard local skiers: drop into the Saturday morning stoke by picking one of them up at the corner of Rouse and Main on the way to Bridger.
Best For: the non-resort ski vacation.
Mt. Bachelor
Bend, OR
We love Mt. Bachelor for its 3,700 ac of terrain, 360° views from the summit, and low-density powder very non-traditional for the Pacific Northwest. Bachelor was established in 1958 by founder Bill Healy with a rope tow and single lift; today it serves as a modern destination resort skiers and riders across the West. It's a local gem for those from Bend, and Bend is a gem for those who travel to ski Mt. Bachelor. At a population of 76,000 and growing, Bend is hardly a small, traditional mountain town – but it's a beautiful small city for the hip at heart. Stay in Bend for easy day trips to Mt. Bachelor, and nights filled with fine craft beers from homegrown microbreweries. Farm-to-table restaurants are popular, and accommodation for every budget is available.
Best For: budget-conscious lodging, small city culture, craft beer on every block.
Taos Ski Valley
Taos, NM
Taos Ski Valley popped up half a century after the town of Taos became popular with bohemian artists and writers. Founder Ernie Blake recognised the potential of the peaks 18 mi outside of downtown Taos in 1955. Still family owned and run, Taos Ski Valley boasts expert terrain that attracts professional big mountain skiers as well as a ski school that caters to skiers just embarking on the sport. You can stay at the resort itself or in downtown Taos, which offers visitors an eclectic mix of restaurants, art galleries, and museums in Native America, Hispanic, and Anglo traditions. The food is known for its spice: beware the (in)famous green chilis.
Best For: the best ski getaway in the Southwest, delightful bohemian flair.
Squaw Valley
Truckee, CA
Squaw Valley helped launch the movement of recreational skiing in North America after hosting the 1960 Winter Olympics. The resort became an icon for recreational skiing and the mountain town lifestyle. Today, Squaw and co-owned resort Alpine Meadows boast 6,000 ac terrain with Lake Tahoe views, 300+ days of sunshine per year, and average annual snowfall of 450 in. The local town is Truckee, where much of downtown is still dotted with original buildings and an historic clapboard train station actively runs 2 Amtrak trains per day. Truckee boasts a sense of laid-back California style and a mix of ski bums, young families, and old time locals.
Best For: a central spot for the skiing, hiking, yoga, and other adventures of Lake Tahoe.

Is Donald Trump the great businessman he claims to be?
After my last post some of you might be wondering: Just who is Donald Trump? Where did he come from and what is his personal history? Unfortunately there's a number of false narratives that surround this topic, particularly with regards to how Donald Trump amassed his fortune and his skill as a businessman. In this article I will focus on the facts surrounding his background.
Childhood & The Draft Rumor
Donald Trump was born and raised in New York. His childhood was fairly uneventful and he graduated in 1968 with a Bachelor of Science degree in economics. However, this was during the same period as the war in Vietnam and from 1964 to 1968. Trump avoided the draft using student deferments. However, when Trump graduated in 1968 he could no longer use student deferments to avoid the draft and was deemed fit for service by a military medical examination.
Even so, he ended up getting a medical deferment from his family doctor on account of heel spurs, which started a long-lasting rumor that the doctor in question was paid to give Trump a deferment since there was no record of Trump having suffered from heel spurs before this point (and in fact, was considered quite an athlete during his time in college). This was a problem across the US at the time, where those families rich enough to afford a family doctor were able to get deferments for their sons. Meanwhile young men who couldn't afford their own doctor but still had significant health issues would be approved for military service and get sent off to war.
Accusations of Racism
Trump began his career working at his father's business, Elizabeth Trump and Son (later renamed The Trump Organization), which among other things owned middle-class rental housing in New York. Though he and his father were financially very successful, this era of Trump's history is tinged with allegations of rampant racism. In 1973 he and his father were both sued by the justice department for, among other things, stating different rental terms at his locations to African-Americans who applied or telling them that apartments were not available when they were. Though they ended up settling this lawsuit, the allegations resurfaced 3 years later as evidence had surfaced that The Trump Organization continued to discriminate against minorities.
Trump Casinos
In the late 70's and the 80's Donald Trump was seen as one of the saviors of Atlantic City as he planned to invest heavily into the city's hotel and casino scene. To this end he first opened Trump Plaza, followed a year later by Trump Castle. In addition, he also bought an unfinished casino from a competitor, the Thaj Mahal. Once he finished the Taj Mahal's construction it became the most expensive casino in the world, costing him over 1 billion dollars. Unfortunately, Trump infamously mismanaged these businesses so much that his casinos filed for bankruptcy no less than four times.
Most investors had little faith in Trump's casinos making a profit due to them directly competing with both each other and other casinos in the city and the exorbitant cost he spent in constructing them. Thus, Trump instead took high-risk high-interest loans to fund them. According to the New York Times the cost of these loans made it impossible for his casinos to be profitable. He also shifted many of his personal debts onto the businesses themselves and took money from the casinos to pay himself enormous salaries with added bonuses. This shifted the risk for when the businesses failed to his investors (and later, stockholders). To top it off, Trump also ended up not paying a great deal of the small businesses that helped him construct his casinos, many of which went bankrupt. Trump did not just disappoint his investors, but Atlantic City as well.
A Damaging Legacy
Infamously, his investors sued Trump as part of the bankruptcies of his casinos. He had promised them far more than what he delivered and helped destroy the businesses he created with their money. However, Trump and his lawyer were able to weasel their way out of the allegations, thus creating a dangerous precedent. Since then several businesses have used the precedent set by this lawsuit to protect themselves from legal action.
The Mar-a-Lago
Trump was also able to buy his famous Mar-a-Lago golf course at a bargain price of 8 million dollars. Originally he had offered 28 million for it, which the owner had rejected. She already had plans for the property and didn't want to sell it. However, Trump bought a separate beach front property near the location and threatened to build a house on it. This would have taken away the Mar-a-Lago's ocean view and would've dramatically reduced its value.
Trump University
Then there was also Trump University, probably one of the most egregious examples of Trump's business practices. Trump University advertised itself as a place where participants could learn about real estate from Donald Trump. The university even going so far as to advertise that Trump himself would be teaching some of these classes.
However, this institution did not serve to educate its participants. It was all one big scheme to cheat participants out of their money. Instructors behaved much in the way of telemarketers. They did not teach their students, they only tried to sell them ever more expensive premium courses. Despite it being advertised as such, Trump himself did not hand pick any of the instructors, did not create or review the university's curriculum and never taught any of the classes. Trump was, however, the sole owner of the institution and therefore responsible for what it did. Trump University was shut down indefinitely in 2010 in the face of several lawsuits.
Granted, Donald Trump has made money throughout his career through legitimate means. Trump renovated several hotels throughout New York. He sold his "Trump-brand" for use on products and buildings throughout the US. Trump co-hosted a successful show in the form of The Apprentice. However, most of these examples don't require the immense business savvy Donald Trump is often credited with by his supporters. One could argue he was just left a fortune and an already successful enterprise by his father. The vast majority of his successes came from selling his brand, and let's be honest, it doesn't take a genius to be famous.

Loving Lolly Chops! A Perfectly Timed Inspiration
The same day I made my last post, I got a notice from a new blog I follow of a new post. The blog is called Lolly Chops and I found it through another blogger, whose blog I follow Christine Middlecamp. Anyway, Lollychops did a video tutorial on how to crochet the edge of a paper embellishment. You can find her video here. Now, if you know me, I will use any old excuse to sit down and use the Cricut and why buy the Bazzill template when the cut file I just made could be used. I mean, can you believe it?! My Lego frame, would make the perfect cut for the crochet technique! What timing Lolly Chops! Thanks!
So, I removed the inner row of circles on the cut file and did the blanket stitch with yarn I had around the house. Don't you love it with just the blanket stitch? I hope to have time to crochet a bit on this tomorrow. I am sharing the cut file with the single row of circles, in case you want to try Lolly Chops technique. You will need George and Here is the file.
Be sure to check out her site for great inspiration! I so love the felt flowers that I bought a new Sizzix die. Gasp! I didn't think my Cricut would cut the felt!

"Let us make a pot of Tortilla Soup!" Not to worry, I have read about 28 different recipes and they are all great, but they all offered similar and different versions of the same dish. It was time to give dad a call. "Dad, how do I decide on a recipe?" "Just pick one," he blurts out. I suggested a particular ingredient I felt would make the soup memorable. With annoyance in his voice he tells me, "Look… it's time for you to make it your own way," then he hangs up on me. Continue reading 'It's Time to Make it Your Own'

Searching for a job in today's market can sometimes leave you feeling a lot like Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz — sucked up in a storm of activity and dropped smack in the middle of some foreign land, where you really don't understand what is going on or how to get back onto familiar ground.

text: Left-back Tom Williams, who enjoyed an extensive Football League career and played once for Cyprus, has been tempted to join the Cambs League Division 1B side. Williams is a close friend of Houghton & Wyton player Adam Spratt and is also known to joint player-boss Jon Brierley from his time in the Peterborough area. The 37 year-old most recently played in America for Arizona United and is understood to be hopeful of securing a new deal in the States next year. Brierley said: Ive known Tom for years since his time at Posh and weve always stayed in touch. Hes also a close friend of Adam and hes going travel up to our games with him. Tom is looking for a few games and we jumped at the chance to get him on board. Im sure all the lads will really benefit from having him involved, and he will be quality for us on and off the pitch. But there will be no special treatment - were a small club and everyone pays subs! Williams was a product of the West Ham youth system and went on to represent Posh, Birmingham, QPR, Barnsley, Gillingham, Swansea, Wycombe, Preston, Bristol City, Colchester, Walsall and Notts County in the professional game. He is likely to feature for Houghton & Wyton, who have won their only game so far this season, when they entertain Hemingfords United Reserves in a Division 1B derby this Saturday. Alconbury are the early pacesetters in Division 1B. Striker Kristien Strickson-Head has started the campaign in free-scoring form with five goals in two games. His double earned a 2-1 success at Chatteris Town Reserves for Mick Clarkes side last Saturday. Sam Phillips and Josh Turner struck as AFC Barley Mow collected a first win at this level when seeing off Fordham 2-0, while five different scorers helped Eaton Socon Reserves win 5-3 at Hemingfords United Reserves. Luke Fox, Charlie Gough, Tom Hall, Sam Ward and sub Jason Chapman found the net.

The Undergraduate Students: the 4th and 5th year classes:
UWI SCMR undertakes to teach medical students in the final two years of their undergraduate medical degree. Our students are predominantly Bahamian nationals, undertaking the advantage of the cost savings by staying at home rather than renting or staying in a hall of residence.
A. The Community Health Experience
This is a six weeks period in which the undergraduate students are immersed into the real world, people living and working in their everyday environment. The overall objective of their community health experience is
- for the medical students to appreciate and acknowledge that hospital is an unnatural and expensive environment and
- the great need to keep people from being admitted into hospital, thus emphasizing a medical practice that will keep people healthy and well.
Student education and experience is focused on:
- Public Health- the study of a population of people as a single person and is concerned with the biological, environmental social and behavioural factors that affect their health;
- Health Prevention;
- Health Promotion and
- Health Education. During this period, the students visit the Public Health Community Clinics throughout Nassau and the Family Islands and all the essential services of The Department of Environmental Health. They are also introduced to the rigors of Diseases Control and Surveillance and are challenged to undertake a research Project in the community as well. With the realization that the national burden of the non-communicable diseases and the resurgence of the communicable ones, the need for the students and the future doctors of our nation to be well grounded in the principles, skills and competencies of Public Health has never been greater.
Under the leadership of Dr. Mortimer Moxey, our tutor and coordinator of the Community Health program, our students' engagement in community Health is proving to be quite a rewarding experience indeed!
B. The Student Advisor Program
All students are assigned a student advisor. Only fulltime lecturers are assigned the responsibility of being student advisors. The advisors meet with their students at least quarterly.
C. 4th Year Student Orientation Program
Orientation program continues: the 4th year students have a week of orientation – getting to know the Medical services Chief of Staff, Hospital Administrator, Heads of Departments and University lecturers. They familiarize themselves and tour the hospital compound and the relevant hospital services.
D. 4th Year Students, Parents and Students Advisors Evening
A new addition to the 4th year orientation program, the parents and guardians are invited to an evening with the students and their advisors. The parents and guardians are informed of the students work schedules, demands, and commitments. They are requested to encourage and facilitate positive student's habits. The students make their pledge to commit to ethical medical practice.
International Elective Students
UWI School of Clinical Medicine & Research, the Bahamas campus welcomes medical students in the final year or the year their school requires to apply for placement in our elective clinical program. Medical elective clerkships are conducted at the Princess Margaret Hospital, the designated teaching hospital, owned and operated by the Bahamas Government.

"October extinguished itself in a rush of howling winds and driving rain and November arrived, cold as frozen iron, with hard frosts every morning and icy drafts that bit at exposed hands and faces." ― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
The month of November has been the month of coldness, isolation, and solitary to many of us. Especially those who have been recently left broken up and they know that all the upcoming festivals and nights will now be tougher than usual. But you know what, if you are someone who is fit for climbing, this month is the best month to go deep into the ravines, climbing beyond the minor peaks of the Himalayas, and experiencing something much greater than the temporary relationships. Trekkers love this month, as it is, the perfect month to pilgrim, introspect and experiences the best sceneries during the various easy, moderate and difficult excursions.
Let's check out more about various interesting Trekking in India in November, but in a short while. Firstly, let's have a generalized overview of India's mountain-adorned states and the general temperature across the subcontinent in the month of November.
The month of November in India is the middle month of the whole post-monsoon period that is generally found throughout the nation between October to December. Retreating monsoon cycle brings to the states, in the north especially, the mild breeze of dense air and dryness to the landscape, that is autumn. The Himalayas initiates the winds and they continue flowing till the southwest and thus, becomes the reason behind the clearing of the skies. Autumn is basically a rarely found season and occurs only in few countries, India being one of them, where although it depends on the positioning of the territory on the world map; still almost all the states experience post-monsoon. At some regions, after the southwest rainfalls peaks, the Autumn ends by the end of November. Many regions experience the transition from the wet to dry and average temperature across the nation is between 28 and 34 °C (82 and 93 °F). In the northeastern states, it only ends by March and starts earlier in September and moves diagonally towards the southwest states. Winds carry moisture and brought through the oceans, like the Bay of Bengal and Cape of Capricorn and feel different from the summer monsoon. Thus, in these states, November is the best month to experience autumn.

Will drinking lots of water in the day(s) prior to a long trek mean I will need less water on the trek?
Some of the best treks in November are:
1. Annapurna Circuit Trek, Nepal
If we have to tell you where to go for Treks to Go for in November then the first one amongst them will be Annapurna Circuit Trek. An extremely wonderful thrilling trek route of Nepal. This peak has a spiritual significance for the locals of Nepal and is revered as a pilgrimage by many. It is also one of the longest trekking paths on the globe. During the journey you'll walk through the rich green lands, number of pine trees, rhododendrons adorned ravines, remote hamlets and overall, number of attractive and scenic landscapes. You'll be walking under the autumn forests, climbing on slanting mounts and the barren terrains. The end of this trek is the end of the Thorong-La Pass. This pass is around 17,770 ft from the sea-level. It moves around the Annapurna crown. This peak is also one of the greatest ten summits in the world.
2. Brahmatal Trek, Uttrakhand
Called so due to the Brahmatal lake that is hidden amidst the ridges, and also because it is believed to have been the very peak where God Brahma meditated according to the Hindu Indian Mythology, one of the oldest treks on the Himalayas is Brahmatal Trek. The trek is enchanting as it is filled with the exquisite white snow throughout, the terrains are rugged, and the tough ridges makes it overall difficult. You'll be accompanied with the landscapes packed with sprawling trees, shades of the seemingly infinite sky above the ranges of the Garhwal and the widely spread snowfields. After you'll cover the path through the shadows of the tall trees, you'll get a sight and comprehensive view of the remote Himalayas. It's one of the most cherished winter treks too due to its excellent path, which is filled with snowfall, the spread Bugiyals on the path, astonishing landscapes, and overall pleasant composition.
3. Deoriatal Chandrashilla Trek
This trail takes you to the world's highest Shiva temple on the earth. This temple is beyond the Tungnath temple and on the rock-faced summit of the Chandrashilla peak. This is amongst the easy treks but is a remarkably thrilling one due to its difficult, uneven and suddenly turning ridges. The slopes are capped with light snow and the trail is alpine. You'll be climbing through the surreal landscapes of charming and dense forests of oak, and deodar. The mounts around you will be filled with rhododendron and you'll walk along with the shadow of rich flowering bed. You'll be able to see the panoramic view of some of the most magnificent peaks of the Garhwal Himalayan ranges.
4. Goechala Trek, Sikkim
If you wish your hiking in November to be a challenging one then, this can be the best one. The trek is compatible for the trekkers who are willing to try Goechla climbing in the months between September-November. You'll be able to experience the beauty of November month and autumn to its best here, not only due to its area but as it is a two weeks long trek, which is both challenging and unusual. One of the most favored destinations of Sikkim tourists is Goechala as the trail tests your courage both mentally and physically. The highlights of this trail are views of majestic Kanchenjunga mountains, complete view of eye-pleasing Goecha Lake, and also snow-laden Himalayan ranges. You'll walk between the rhododendrons valleys, orchards, and forested paths. It is also a beautiful peak with mist making it heavenly, giving it a magnificent view.
5. The Kanchenjunga Base Camp Trek, Sikkim
Said to be as the doorway to the third highest mountain in the world, and also the highest mountain in India is the Base Camp Trek of the Mt. Kanchenjunga. The excursion to Kanchenjunga Base Camp follows the path to the famous Goecha La Pass. You'll be trekking through the alpine forests overspread by growing rhododendrons, and colorful orchids. The trek exposes one to the challenging cold, expert traverses, and gorgeous landscapes. Opening under the poised sight of Mt. Kanchenjunga, the Kanchenjunga Base Camp trek is on the top of every trekker's bucket list, as it should be due to an unforgettable memory that the journey creates and also as it also helps one explore one's inner self.
6. Sandakpu-Phalut Trek, West Bengal
Trekking in November in West Bengal is one of the best choices you can make, as the destination provides you the best experience of the post-monsoon. The Sandakfu-Phalut trek will take you to the northern side of West Bengal, on the Darjeeling Himalayan mountains. These ranges are the part of the eastern Himalayan belt of the Indian Himalayas. At the height of 11,929 ft, Sandakfu Peak is the highest crown of West Bengal and resides remotely in the Himalayan ranges of beautiful Darjeeling. You'll be able to get the picture of eye-pleasing and some of the world's most popular mounts like the Everest, Kancho Zonda, Lhotse, Makalu. You'll also be able to see the view of the asleep Buddha, which is crafted naturally through the cluster of all these four great peaks together, resting peacefully on them.
7. Dodital – Darwa Pass Trek, Uttrakhand
Resting in the Garhwal ranges of Uttarakhand, Dodital is considered to be the birthplace of Lord Ganesha and is often referred to as the beginner's and travelers to try. You'll be climbing through dense Himalayan forests of pine and oak trees, lush green meadows and reaching the beautiful Dodital Lake. From there you'll walk towards the remarkable Darwa Pass. This trek is the most preferred trek in the month of November due to unparallel scenery that it treats your eyes with after reaching the peak of Dodital. You'll get a complete view of Dhauladhar ranges once you'll reach the peak.
Hiking in November can be best done in the northeastern parts of the Indian subcontinent as there you'll be able to best experience the most wonderful of seasons, that is autumn or technically said, post-monsoon. The showery light breeze touching your face will make you forget about all kind of coldness and struggles of your life.

Important Considerations for Selecting a Women's Health Clinic
Women usually, need to have a facility that can help sort out their health issues because its important for them to stay healthy. The only unfortunate thing is that most women don't know where to go to find such help. Although there are several women's clinics in existence today, it is sometimes difficult to differentiate between the genuine and the fake ones. This normally means that a woman has to take special care when choosing such a facility to be assured of good services. While choosing such a women's health facility, it will be important to have in mind some basic factors. Below are outlined some of these essential considerations to have in mind.
Pay heed to your doctor's recommendation. It's possible that you already have a doctor who normally treats you and your family in case of any issue. If the personal doctor is not capable of dealing with a particular problem, they usually refer you to a place where you can be helped. Such medical practitioners normally network with their colleagues in their field and therefore are aware of who can offer the best services. It will, therefore, be a good idea to get a referral from your personal doctor on the most appropriate women's clinic to make use of.
Medical cover Medical insurance cover is a major consideration for those looking for a women's health facility. It might be quite difficult to fund for treatment of some issues because of their complexity and high cost. You should, therefore, ensure that you are covered by insurance before visiting a certain clinic. It will also be important to ensure that the clinic you are interested in has health insurance form your insurance company. This will give you confidence that all your medical expenses will be catered for by the insurance company.
Proper legal certification Its important that every women's health clinic be registered and licensed by the relevant government agency to offer health services. This ensures that such a facility obeys the rules and regulations governing their sector. You should, therefore, endeavor to confirm that the clinic is actually registered before visiting them. You can find information concerning which the accredited institutions and practitioners by visiting the local governing agency's offices.
Convenience The women's health facility you decide to use for its services should offer you convenience. Convenience can be considered in terms of accessibility, the kind of services offered as well as the payment options available. Health facilities that are quite a distance from home may prove unsuitable because they come with higher transport costs. The most suitable facility would be one that's located near you and offers good quality services. An effective payment processing option will also come in handy.

September 2nd, 2008 8:47 AM by Lehel Szucs
There are five relevant economic reports scheduled for release this week, but they are being posted over four days because the markets were closed today in observance of the Labor Day holiday.
The first piece of data this week comes tomorrow morning with the release of the Institute for Supply Management's (ISM) manufacturing index at 10:00 AM ET. This index measures manufacturer sentiment and is expected to show a decline from last month's reading of 50.0 to 49.5 in August. A reading above 50 means that more surveyed manufacturers felt business improved during the month than those who felt it worsened. An increase in the index would probably cause a rally in the stock markets and lead to mortgage rates rising tomorrow, while a reading below 49.5 should lead to lower rates.
The second report of the week is July's Factory Orders data Wednesday morning. This report measures manufacturing sector strength and is similar to last wee k's Durable Goods Orders, but includes orders for both durable and non-durable goods. This data is expected to show a 0.4% increase in new orders. A smaller than expected rise should lead to lower mortgage rates Wednesday.
Also scheduled for release is the Wednesday afternoon Federal Reserve release of its Beige Book report. This report details current economic conditions in the U.S. by region. It is believed to be a key source of data when the Fed meets for their FOMC meetings. It is usually released approximately two weeks prior to each FOMC meeting. If the 2:00 PM ET release reveals any significant surprises, we may see movement in the markets and mortgage pricing as analysts adjust their theories on the Fed's next interest rate move. Most likely though, it will be a non-event and will not lead to a change in mortgage rates.
Thursday morning brings us the revision to the 2nd Quarter Productivity numbers, which measures employee productivity in the wo rkplace. It is expected to show an upward change from the previous estimate of a 2.2% annual pace. Forecasts are currently calling for a reading of 2.9%, which would be good news for the bond market and possibly lead to slightly lower mortgage rates Thursday morning.
The big news of the week comes Friday morning. The Labor Department will post the unemployment rate, number of new jobs added or lost and average hourly earnings for August early Friday. The ideal scenario for the bond market and mortgage rates is rising unemployment, a smaller than expected rise in new payrolls and earnings to remain unchanged. If we are that fortunate, I expect to see mortgage rates drop considerably Friday morning. Analysts are expecting to see the unemployment rate remain at 5.7% and 70,000 jobs lost in the month. Weaker then expected readings would be very good news for bonds and mortgage rates.
Overall, I expect to see the most movement in rates Friday, but Tuesday s hould also be fairly active. I am holding the short-term lock recommendations for the time being as there still seems to be plenty of profit taking opportunities for traders if they choose to do so. This could lead to a spike in mortgage rates if traders sell holdings to capture those gains. This does not mean that I think rates will necessarily move higher. It means that I feel the risk versus the potential reward of continuing to float an interest rate is leaning heavily towards the risky side. Accordingly, locking seems to be the prudent position at this time.
If I were considering financing/refinancing a home, I would.... Lock if my closing was taking place within 7 days... Lock if my closing was taking place between 8 and 20 days... Float if my closing was taking place between 21 and 60 days... Float if my closing was taking place over 60 days from now... This is only my opinion of what I would do if I were financing a home. It is only an opinion and cannot b e guaranteed to be in the best interest of all/any other borrowers.

I have 3 young children at home with me. I like to work, spend time with them, and I am just looking for a girlfriend. I am kinda tired of me.
K (whom I have a very vague memory about) is a friend, nothing more and she never will be. I am sure that at the time you had a thing for K people advised you to move on.
Pretty safe to say that 70-80% of women behave like this, and its extremely unhealthy.
"I visited Holli again and she was the best of the best in sensual massage I have ever had. I also love her new pic and she is gorgeous! She takes control of you and will make you VERY HAPPY! Again 10+. Go see her!
flattire - i like her but prefer even skinnier
quite rite etu
that if she was looking for a serious relationship we shouldn't see each other anymore. She wanted to contiue seeing me and asked if that meant we could see other people. I said yes and she started crying. Found out later that she confided with her friend that night and she told her to stop seeing me but she didn't listen.
Many men want what they can't have. When they get it they don't know what to do with it.
i'm a faithful person. down to earth and easy going. very kind and outspoke.
Cheerleaders in love. Warms my heart.
