Sometime I look in the mirror and "DANG I AM GETTING OLD" But I guess I am young at heart. Last night some young ladies my wife and I know came to our house bearing a gift. The gift was a painting of Batman.
They have a friend names Logan Caudle who is an artist and they had him paint the picture of the Caped Crusader. I thought it was awesome and I can't express how much I love it.
That happened on Monday night and today at 5 am I am looking for some fun stuff to do during the morning show when I came across this from a 50 year old woman for advice to a 20 year old and thought wow that is good advice so I thought I would share it with you.
Be kind, or at least courteous to other people. It doesn't really require much effort, and it makes you happier in the end. So, compliment people whenever you can, and try to be as understanding and patient as possible.
- Don't try to fit in too much or dwell on other people's opinions. Just think of them as suggestions, and stay true to yourself. Also, never make a major life decision just to please someone else, like your parents.
- Never stay in a bad relationship. Even if it's hard to leave, it's worth it in the end.
- Don't focus too much on money. And remember that all your stuff is replaceable. In the end, it's not as important as the people in your life, or the relationships you have.
- Don't make snap judgements about people. You never know the true context of what's going on in their life. So try to give people a break now and then.
- Don't beat yourself up too much. Do what you can to fix your mistakes, then move on. Holding onto guilt for too long is toxic to your own happiness.
- Don't worry about getting older. Life can be better at 50 than it is at 20.
I would only add one more piece of advice that I have learned in my life to any 20 year old. This advice will make sure you go through a lot less pain than I did. The advice is .
You ARE welcome

Report: Mick McCarthy set to return as Ireland manager
Mick McCarthy is set to return as manager of Ireland's national soccer team, national broadcaster RTE reported on Thursday.
McCarthy led the side from 1996-2002, taking them to the World Cup last 16 in his final year, although the build-up to the tournament was marred by a public row with team captain Roy Keane in Saipan. McCarthy resigned in November 2002.
RTE reported that the 59-year-old will arrive in Dublin this weekend to negotiate a contract to take over from Martin O'Neill, who left the role on Wednesday.
McCarthy has been without a club since he resigned as manager of English Championship side Ipswich Town in April after six years in charge.
He started his managerial career with Millwall and also led Sunderland and Wolverhampton Wanderers after leaving the Ireland job.

Mesotherapy For Women Hair Loss
Women suffering from hair loss and thinning hair thus seek treatment to overcome the problem. Mesotherapy is a baldness treatment option that allows women with reducing hair loss, promoting hair re-growth. It can also hold up male pattern baldness. It is a procedure that controls the vitamins, proteins and other nutrient levels and growth features in the scalp of the woman suffering from balding. This process is done by inserting in the least sensitive manner, nutrient boosters with the help of an injection gun to support in the hydrating and nourishing of the scalp. It also incorporates promoting cell metabolism, discarding infections and initiating and speeding hair growth, recuperating blood circulation, strengthening, and stimulating hair follicles to develop voluminous, dense, long, strong, and healthy tresses.
Mesotherapy is comparatively faster treatment than others as it helps to gradually restore the hormonal balance that accelerates the growth of new hair strands. This procedure is used in U.S. with great success. When done by our professionals it is safe and virtually painless. No local anesthesia or dressing is required, and you can just go back to your work once the treatment is done.

Meg Read your article from your journal in the journal. I worked in the North unit for 15 years. you circled the best habitat for the Mtn Plover. I have seen them in the areas you covered but not so common. To get to the most concentrated habitat cross the John Dunn bridge and head north on the dirt road between Pot and Chiflo. The area where I almost always observed them starts about .5 mi north of Pot continues North for about 5 miles and also west for several miles. Granted, I have not been out there since the severe drought. Don't know effects of that. Good Luck.

Hi, Meg – this morning I read an article you wrote several years ago about your experience with Hawk Watch International in the Manzano Mountains. I live in New Mexico, a bit northeast of Santa Fe. Yours was a wonderfully inspiring piece. I'm just coming to my own love and passion for hawks. Because of your article, I'm strongly motivated to connect with HWI and volunteer with them next year. In fact, I can't wait! Thank you very much.

He was a member of the writing group of the ESC/EAS guidelines for the management of dyslipidaemia.
There have been marked changes in the epidemiology of cardiovascular disease over the last decade. In Western Europe, cardiovascular mortality has been steadily declining as a result of advances in acute clinical management. However, the rapid ageing of populations in these countries and the escalation of metabolic diseases including obesity and diabetes have raised the prospect of reversal in health gains.
In contrast, there has been an escalation in premature cardiovascular mortality rates in Eastern Europe, which may reflect the high prevalence of traditional risk factors, such as smoking and excess alcohol intake, as well as less than optimal management due to financial restraints. Local risk factors in Eastern Europe also need to be identified with more specifically targeted prevention programmes in the individual countries.
These trends have important implications for healthcare systems and policy makers and warrant an urgent re-thinking of priorities in the management of cardiovascular risk.

I'm reading my DNA report at Promethease.com and 23andMe, and it's fun! Here are some surprising facts:
Sprinter Gene
Better performing muscles. Likely sprinter. This genotype indicates better performing muscles, particularly for sprinting and power sports. Fast-twitch muscle fibers are able to produce alpha-actinin-3. Professional sprinters usually have this, although it is less common for endurance athletes.
Night Owl
rare genotype associated with longer sleep duration
Placebo for the win!
advantage in memory and attention tasks You are more difficult to hypnotise. Placebo is more effective
There I was thinking I was an early bird and a bad sprinter… But the placebo effect is already working and imagine being someone who gets up late and sprints 😉 No, actually… I'm sticking with my 5am morning routine for now. Onwards!

Taken from the book "The Temple" by Alfred Edersheim D.D. Ph.D. Quite distinct from the other new moons, and more sacred than they, was that of the SEVENTH month, or Tishri, partly on account of the symbolical mean of the seventh or sabbatical month, in which the great feasts of the Day of Atonement and of Tabernacles occurred, and partly, perhaps, because it also marked the commencement of the civil year, always supposing that, as Josephus and most Jewish writers maintain, the distinction between the sacred and civil year dates from the time of Moses. In Scripture this feast is designated as the 'memorial blowing' (Lev.23:24) or 'the day of blowing,' because on that day the trumpets, or rather, as we shall see, the horns were blown all day long in Jerusalem. It was to be observed as 'a Sabbath,' and 'a holy convocation,' in which 'no servile work' might be done. The prescribed offerings for the day consisted, besides the ordinary morning and evening sacrifices, first, of the burnt-offerings, but not the sin-offering, of ordinary new moons, with their meat - and drink-offerings, and after that, of another festive burnt-offering of one young bullock, one ram, and seven lambs, with their appropriate meat - and drink-offerings, together with one kid of the goats for a sin-offering, to make an atonement for you. While the drink-offering of the festive sacrifice was poured out, the priests and Levites chanted Psalm lxxxi., and if the feast fell on a Thursday, for which that Psalm was, at any rate, prescribed, it was sung twice, beginning the second time at verse 7 in the Hebrew text, or verse 6 of our Authorised Version. At the evening sacrifice Psalm xxix. was sung. For reasons previously explained, it became early common to observe the New Year's Feast on two successive days, and the practice may have been introduced in Temple times. (This of course was strictly of Jewish making or tradition - Keith Hunt). The Mishnah, which devotes a special tractate to this feast, remarks that a year may be arranged according to four different periods; the first, beginning with the 1st of Nisan, being for 'kings'(to compute taxation) and for computing the feasts; the second, on the 1st of Elul (the sixth month), for tithing flocks and herds, any animal born after that not being reckoned within the previous year; the third, on the 1st of Tishri (the seventh month), for the Civil, the Sabbatical, and the Jubilee year, also for trees and herbs; and lastly, that on the 1st of Shebat (the eleventh month), for all fruits of trees. Similarly, continues the Mishnah, there are four seasons when judgment is pronounced upon the world: at the Passover, in regard to the harvest; at Pentecost, in regard to the fruits of trees; on the Feast of Tabernacles, in regard to the dispensation of rain; while on 'New Year's Day all the children of men pass before Him like lambs (when they are counted for the tithing), as it is written, "He fashioneth their hearts alike; He considereth all their works."' To this we may add, as a comment of the Talmud, that on New Year's Day three books were opened: that of life, for those whose works had been good; another of death, for those who had been thoroughly evil; and a third, intermediate, for those whose case was to be decided on the Day of Atonement (ten days after New Year), the delay being granted for repentance, or otherwise, after which their names would be finally entered, either in the book of life, or in that of death. By these terms, however, eternal life or death are not necessarily meant; rather earthly well-being, and, perhaps, temporal life, or the opposite. It is not necessary to explain at length on what Scriptural passages this curious view about the three books is supposed to rest. But so deep and earnest are the feelings of the Rabbis on this matter, that by universal consent the ten days intervening between New Year and the Day of Atonement are regarded as 'days of repentance.' Indeed, from a misunderstanding of a passage in the Mishnah, a similar superstition attaches to every new moon, the day preceding it being kept by rigid Jews as one of fasting and repentance, and called the 'Lesser Day of Atonement.' (Again, all this is Jewish traditions and has no Biblical support - Keith Hunt). In accordance with this, the Rabbis hold that the blowing of the trumpets is intended, first, to bring Israel, or rather the merits of the patriarchs and God's covenant with them, in remembrance before the Lord; secondly, to be a means of confounding Satan, who appears on that day specially to accuse Israel; and, lastly, as a call to repentance - as it were, a blast to wake men from their sleep of sin. During the whole of New Year's Day, trumpets and horns were blown in - Jerusalem from morning to evening. In the Temple it was, done, even on a Sabbath, but not outside its walls. Since the destruction of Jerusalem this restriction has been removed, and the horn is blown in every synagogue, even though the feast fall upon a Sabbath. It has already been hinted that the instruments used were not the ordinary priests' trumpets but horns. The Mishnah holds that any kind of horns may be blown except those of oxen or calves, in order not to remind God of the sin of the golden calf! The Mishnah, however, specially mentions the straight horn of the antelope and the bent horn of the ram; the latter with special allusion to the sacrifice in substitution of Isaac, it being a tradition that New Year's Day was that in which Abraham, despite Satan's wiles to prevent or retard him, had offered up his son Isaac on Mount Moriah. The mouthpiece of the horns for New Year's Day were fitted with gold, those used on fast days with silver. Another distinction was this - on New Year's Day those who blew the horn were placed between others who blew the trumpets, and the sound of the horn was prolonged beyond that of the trumpets; but on fast days those who sounded the trumpets stood in the middle, and their blast was prolonged beyond that of the horns. For the proper observance of these solemn seasons, it was deemed necessary not only to hear but to listen to the sound of the horn, since, as the Mishnah adds, everything depends on the intent of the heart, not on the mere outward deed, just as it was not Moses lifting up his hands that gave Israel the victory, nor yet the lifting up of the brazen serpent which healed, but the upturning of the heart of Israel to 'their Father who is in heaven' - or faith. We quote the remark, of only as one of the comparatively few passages in the Mishnah which turn on the essence of religion, but as giving an insight into the most ancient views of the Rabbis on these types, and as reminding us of the memorable teaching of our Lord to one of those very Rabbis. The Mishnah mentions various 'Berachoth' or 'benedictions' as having been repeated on New Year's Day. These, with many others of later date, still form part of the liturgy in the synagogue for that day. But there is internal evidence that the prayers, at any rate in their present form, could not have been used, at least, in the Temple. Besides, the Rabbis themselves differ as to their exact amount and contents, and finally satisfy themselves by indicating that the titles of these benedictions are rather intended as headings, to show their contents, and what special direction their prayers had taken. One set of them bore on 'the kingdom' of God, and is accordingly called Malchiyoth; another, the Sichronoth, referred to the various kinds of 'remembrance' on the part of God; while a third, called Shopharoth, consisted of benedictions, connected with the 'blowing of the horn.' It is said that any one who simply repeated ten passages from Scripture - according to another authority, three - bearing on 'the kingdom of God,' 'the remembrance of God,' and 'the blowing of horns,' had fulfilled his duty in regard to these 'benedictions.' (Once more, let me make it clear that all of this was Jewish traditions, and none of it has any foundation on Scripture, except of course the blowing of the trumpets - Keith Hunt). From Scripture we know with what solemnity the first day of the seventh month was observed at the time of Ezra, and how deeply moved the people were by the public reading and explanation of the of the law, which to so many of them came like a strange sound, all the more solemn, that after so long a period they heard it again on that soil which, as it were, bore witness to its truth. In the New Testament there is no reference to our Lord having ever attended this feast in Jerusalem: Nor was this necessary, as it was equally celebrated in all the synagogues of Israel. Yet there seems some allusion to the blowing of the horn in the writings of St.Paul. We have already stated that, according to Maimonides, one of its main purposes was to rouse men to repentance. In fact, the commentator of Maimonides makes use of the following words to denote the meaning of the blowing of trumpets: 'Rouse ye, rouse ye from your slumber; awake, awake from your sleep, you who mind vanity, for slumber most heavy has fallen upon you. Take it to heart, before Whom you are to give an account in the judgment.' May not some such formula also have been anciently used in the synagogue; and may not the remembrance of it have been present to the mind of the apostle, when he wrote: 'Wherefore it is said, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light!' If so, we may possibly find an allusion to the appearance of the new moon, specially to that of the seventh month, in these words of one of the preceding verses: 'For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light!' (Eph.5:8). ............... End of quotes from Edersheim In the Jewish world there has been much wrong traditions introduced on this Trumpet Feast Day. There is no Biblical support for the Feast of Trumpets as "new years day" per se, and the period from Trumpets to Atonement being days of repentance or "days of awe" as the Jews call them, was actually borrowed from the Babylonians, who had a similar religious teaching towards their gods. The true time of the year for inward inspection and deep contemplation of sin and righteousness, is during the Feasts days of the Spring Festival of Passover/Unleavened Bread. The Feast of Trumpets on the first day of the seventh month, STARTS the joyous third festive season of the year. It announced the ending of the fall harvest, when the great fruits have been gathered in. In typology, the Feast of Trumpets, announces the beginning of the GREAT spiritual havest, when Jesus shall return at the sound of the last trumpet, and when the Kingdom of God on earth shall then begin to cover and harvest the people of the earth for one thousand years. Specifically this Feast day is reminding us that SEVEN trumpets will sound on the earth as foretold in the book of Revelation, and at the sounding of the LAST trumpet, Christ will come as King of Kings and Lord of Lords, to establish God's Kingdom over all nations (Rev.11:15-19). It is a Feast of bitter- sweet. It has the reminder that troubles, war, and death, must come on this earth, if nations will not repent, but it has the sweetness that after the bitterness, Jesus will return to save humanity from destroying themselves - Keith Hunt Entered on this Website, October 2003
