sorry for the delay in responding.
you need the AloftVisibility module enabled (under "Modules"). then, under the "Visibility" options, disable the "Show Neutral Units" option.
if you want this to work in combat (Blizzard does not allow hiding of nameplates in combat), you need to enable the AloftAlpha module (you need this module even if you leave all of the "Alpha" options disabled). then, back under "Visibility" options, you need to enable the "Use Nameplate Alpha In Combat" option.

|"Brewer of Ghent"
For our last full day in Europe, we drove a short distance from Antwerp to Ghent. The morning's business would not be plants, it would be art. We parked the car in the old center, the very old picturesque center, and were immediately greeted by an impressive statue of Jacob van Artevelde, the 14th century "Brewer of Ghent," also known as the "Wise Man." He was a political leader, having made his fortune in the weaving industry. Well, he wasn't so wise after all; he pissed off the pope and was excommunicated, then eventually was murdered by a mob.

|Saint Bavo Cathedral
Anyway, Ghent is a beautiful old city, still vibrant after many centuries, with old buildings and pretty canals. Our destination was the Saint Bavo Cathedral, over a thousand years old and home of the "Ghent Altarpiece," also known as the "Adoration of the Mystic Lamb." This altarpiece by the van Eyck brothers in the 1400's is considered one of the greatest works in western art. I longed to see it for many years, then found it to be more wonderful in person than I ever could have imagined. Obviously no photos were allowed, but those unfamiliar with it are encouraged to google and see what the fuss is about. There was a lot of additional art in this old building, including a sprawling "Saint Bavo Entering the Cathedral" by Rubens.
Honestly, the primary motivation for me to attend the International Maple Symposium was not maples and other trees, it was the art. I should confess that on day one, en route to the nurseries in southern Netherlands, we stopped at the Mauritshuis Museum in The Hague to see Vermeer's "Girl with a Pearl Earring," a number of Rembrandt's, a van Gogh and much more. It was all housed in an elegant building with Vermeer's beautiful girl pictured in front. So while Buchholz Nursery paid for a plant trip, a little fun on the side was irresistible.
Strangely enough, even after seeing blood pouring out of the mystic lamb in the Ghent Altarpiece, we were hungry. Crossing the cathedral square, we entered a little café where Phil fulfilled his tourist's requirement and ate a plate of Belgian waffles. Then we went in search of the Ghent University Botanic Garden.

|Cornus hongkongensis
|Pinus nigra ssp. maritima
The climate in Ghent is clearly more mild than in Oregon. Throughout the trip, and also here, I would see happy trees in the USDA zone 8 category. New to me were two Cornus: hongkongensis from SE China and tonkinensis from Vietnam. Actually, most everything was new to me, since my photos are now sorted alphabetically, I can't remember for sure what was taken outside in the small garden, and what was taken inside the fascinating greenhouses. Certainly from outside was Pinus nigra ssp. maritima, the "Corsican Pine," with fantastic bark. So was the ubiquitous Sorbus alnifolia, which we saw in nearly every arboretum, and Sapindus mukorossi with its butter-yellow leaves, native to Asia. Also outside was Celtis laevigata, the "Mississippi Hackberry" in the Ulmaceae family, notable for its gray furrowed bark. First seen in Wespelaar, I encountered again Styphnolobium japonicum 'Pendulum' which graced the walkway. I've never seen this plant in America, and just as well since nobody can pronounce it anyway.

Inside it was warm and muggy with plant smells strong and heady. That putrid odor was coming from…which plant? And keep your hands close, as many trunks were guarded with spines, like Opuntia neoargentina. Encephalartos horridus really was horrible. Flowers were nearly finished on Crinum asiaticum, but I loved the leaf pattern, and also the leaves of Neodypsis decaryi. Ferns and strange things like Salvinia auriculata were in the pool, and I imagined piranhas could be swimming beneath. Podocarpus macrophyllus displayed lush foliage and Philodendron x 'Lynette' was in flower. What an amazing, smelly world this was, about which I know so little.

Food plants were fun to see. Vanilla, coffee, tea and others make you realize that we take so much for granted with what we eat and drink. Theobroma cacao, the chocolate plant, is thought to have originated in the Amazon region, then transported by humans into Central America and Mexico. Theobroma is from Greek, meaning "Food of the Gods," and was first encountered by Europeans in 1502, by Columbus and his crew. Indeed, before leaving the Bavo Cathedral square, I entered a chocolate shop to purchase a mixed box for my most worthy (and addicted) wife. The sweet proprietress assisted me to choose the proper assortment, then announced that "now you will be safe to return home."
|Theobroma cacao
Back outside Aloe speciosa showed off its nice trunk, as did Yucca carnerosana, I was appreciating the Agapanthus and nearly stepped on interesting mushrooms on the lawn. Really, nothing here, including the mushrooms, had any value for Buchholz Nursery. However, my appreciation of Flora's infinite bounty was greatly increased by visiting this special place. I could imagine to live in Ghent, probably alone as an old man with regrets and bittersweet memories, with my ashes finally tossed into a canal, or secretly spread throughout the botanic garden.

Discovering Ina Boyle.
Help us to bring the music of this important Irish composer to a new generation.
Please help raise £10,000 to record a landmark CD of orchestral music by Ina Boyle. This recording by the BBC Concert Orchestra will be conducted by Ronald Corp with soloists Nadège Rochat (cello) and Benjamin Baker (violin), currently a young artist of YCAT (Young Classical Artist Trust).
Ina Boyle (www.inaboyle.org) composed a huge body of work. She is recognised as one of Ireland's most important composers and all her music, largely unperformed, is preserved in Trinity College Library, Dublin, awaiting rediscovery. She was a pupil of Vaughan Williams and travelled regularly to London for lessons with him. He thought very highly of her music. However, despite early success, (one of her works was conducted by Sir Henry Wood at the Proms in 1927), she has been largely forgotten. Her great friend, the composer Elizabeth Maconchy, encouraged her to relocate to London but she would not leave the home she loved and family who needed her.
When they died, she lived alone, composed everyday, inspired by the beautiful Wicklow countryside. At last, as predicted by Vaughan Williams, the music of Ina Boyle is now beginning to be recognised intertionally. This landmark CD with the BBC Concert Orchestra will launch the composer in the UK.
It will include the first complete CD recording of the "Glencree" Symphony (In Wicklow Hills) (1924-27), which reflects her deep attachment to the Wicklow countryside. The atmospheric Pastoral "Colin Clout" (1921) was first performed in 1922 at the Royal College of Music by the Queen's Hall Orchestra conducted by Adrian Boult. "Psalm" (1927) for cello and orchestra has never been performed. The Violin Concerto (1933) is very special as she dedicated it to her mother who had died three years earlier. "Wildgeese" (1942) has become one of the most frequently performed of her compositions; in 2013 it featured in two Europe Day concerts played by the European Youth Orchestra. "A Sea Poem" (1919), one of Ina Boyle's finest early works, will be premiered on this CD.
Ina Boyle inspires us, both through her music and as a person. Poignantly because she lived a very reclusive life, she heard little of her work performed. We very much hope that you will help bring her music to a new generation. We have a range of awards to say "thank you" including an acknowledgment on the website www.inaboyle.org, signed copies of the CD and an invitation to a special reception to meet the artists.

The Republican Technique.
I have been watching this for years. Republicans cut taxes on the rich which will be paid for by the incredible growth in the economy predicted but never happens. Then when the democrats win back control, they insist on cutting the deficit, never by rolling back tax cuts, but by taking money from the so-called entitlements on which the poor and middle class survive. This year is the worst yet because they have no shame. What they want it treasonous, to wit their piece of shit called a health care bill and their budget. They should all be tried and since they are so hot on the death penalty, they should all be shot, well most of them anyway.

No one can really appreciate the beauty of the island while traveling by car or bike. You have to walk yourself around it, in order to fully understand its beauty. Let's discover some its most known and enchanting routes!
Ainos (Antennas) – Megas Soros:
Ainos is the highest mountain in western Greece and the view is one of a kind. Drive up to the antennas in the top of the Mountain and walk to Megas Soros. During that beautiful walk you can see the mountain's rare plant life and its untouched beauty. If you drive a Jeep, you can enter the dirt road and reach the beginning of the path that leads to Megas Soros. From there and then, it is 20 minutes walk in a low gradient and well-signposted path, which makes it rather easy. The 360ᵒ view will be rewarding every step of yours since you will be seeing every part of the Ionian Sea, the surrounding islands and Peloponnisos. This is definitely the point with the most breathtaking view in the whole island, yet few people know it.
Antisamos Beach – Koutsoupia
Get yourself ready to be charmed from the surrounding environment in Antisamos beach. It is an amazing beach surrounded by vivid green mountains. Equip your backpack and walk the path after the beach, pass through the dense plant life. It's about 6 km of hard walk, you will need 3 to 3,5 hours to reach the hidden beach Koutsoupia. Your efforts will be paid back, since you will be feeling in another world!
Fanari Circular Walk through pathways
This walk is rather known up to a certain point. Then, less people know it. Walk the main road to Fanari (Lighthouse), pass Katavothres and the Lighthouse until you meet a clearing in the street, which leads to a path. As long as you walk it, keep going by the waterfront. This is a rather hard 5km route but it's worth it since you will have the chance to admire parts of the coast that few people have seen. The way back begins where the path ends. On your return from the main road, you can visit the Memorial Acqui Division, a Monument to the Italian soldiers.
Drapanitika – Assos: The hike starts from the old village of Drapanitika and through the beautiful village of Assos, continues to the peninsula with the Venetian Castle. An area adorned with pine trees and cypresses, beautiful view, steep cliffs and deep blue sea. The castle was built on this strategic point in 1593 for defensive reasons. It is a typical sample of the Venetian fortification technique. This is an easy walk in a beautiful area full of natural beauties and signs of the past.
Agios Eleftherios – Agrapidies: Walk through a part of the National Forest of Ainos. The major length of this easy hike is through a dirt road and another small part of it on a path. The high altitude and the kefalonian fir forest compose a breathtaking scenery. The view is really unique.
Koulourata – Sami: Starting point is the village of Koulourata, most of the walk is on a dirt road and an approximately 2km distance on a path. Pass through the old village of Mouzakata (where we can still see the remains of the village that was destroyed in World War II), and the old villages of Grizata and Zervata that had been devastated by the 1953 earthquake. At the beginning of this rather easy hike, enjoy the view of the mountain core of Kefalonia and towards the end, watch the gulf of Sami and Aghia Efimia from above.
Themata – Karavomilos: Most of the walk goes through a dirt road with few parts of asphalt. Begin from the Monastery of Themata which is built on a beautiful spot in the Mountain Agia Dynati. Continue our walk through Vlachata, an old village with ruins from the earthquake of 1953. Keep on walking through Poulata and catch a glimpse of the residents' everyday life. Give yourself the chance to see some of the lake caves of Kefalonia, before reaching Karavomylos bay. This is an easy walk.
Monodendri – Chaliotata: Explore the mountainous core of Kefalonia starting from Monodendri village. The deserted scenery gradually changes to green mountains with a panoramic view towards all the directions of the island. The whole route is on a dirt road. Don't miss to visit the aeolic park of Evmorfia at the highest point of the road. Pass through a small canyon towards the end and arrive at the village of Chaliotata. This is a long hike timewise, but not that difficult except a few parts.
Antisamos – Poros : Starting from Antisamos beach and ending at Poros, walk through the most distant part of Kefalonia (SE). The greatest part of the route is a narrow path under the tree shadow. Some open spaces offer view towards Ithaca and the east. Half way of the hike we meet Koutsoupia, a beautiful beach with crystal blue water. The last part of the walk is on a dirt road. That is our hardest walk not only because of the long distance, but also because of the partly difficult path.
Caving Tours
Kefalonia has various different caves of interest including Melissani, Agalaki and Drogarati. Drogarati cave, which is 37 metres below ground and is said to be 150 million years old, has huge stalactites which hang from the roof like a veil. The red colour in the rock is from the iron content and the white from the chalk and limestone. Discover a mystical underground world on a caving adventure under the supervision of experienced guides and equipped with the latest safety equipment. Organise these trips based on your level ranging from caves of 20 metres deep to 120 metres deep.
Jeep Safari
Be closer to nature and the elements with alternative ways to see this fantastic island. Get off the usual Tourist Trail and experience archaeological sites, old villages, ancient ruins, various caves, ancient tombs and pre-earthquake architecture. Drive through vineyards and olive groves, drive through the National Park and its black fir tree forests to the top of Mount Ainos where you will have breathtaking 360 degree views of Kefalonia and the nearby islans of Ithaka, Lefkas, Zante and the mainland of Greece. See rare black fir trees (Abies Cephalonica), the Viola Cephalonica, a flower that is unique to Kefalonia, and 2000 year old olive trees. Search for the wild horses of Mount Ainos and view other bird and wildlife in their natural habitat. While experiencing all this you will also learn about the history, culture and traditions of the island from our professional and knowledgeable guide. These jeep safari trips run daily and can be organised to meet your needs, time and level.
Sea kayaking
Sea kayaking is the perfect way to enjoy the beauty, diversity and sheer magnificence of the Kefalonian coastline. It is an activity that is relaxing, low stress and suitable for ALL ages. The right equipment, the international experience, the LOCAL knowledge combined with the passion for the island, will ensure that your adventure will be an unforgettable experience. Are you looking forward to knowing the ELEMENT OF IONIAN WATER?
Have you ever imagined you could fly over one of the best beaches in the world?
Paragliders will certainly get their adrenalin high in Kefallonia. You're in luck, because the island's ideal paragliding location is right above Myrtos beach, one of the most beautiful in the world. Wind conditions here are perfect for this sport and you'll be privy to stunning views.
Although not a popular sport in Kefallonia, die-hard paragliders have documented a number of successful flights in the region and are searching for other lesser-known spots.
A breezy favorite among paragliding lovers, the stunning Myrtos beach is always lively on land, sea and air, yet manages to keep its status as one of the island's most scenic shores.

Exciting news, Star Wars fans: The next, next chapter in the cinematic galactic saga has a release date.
The Star Wars: Episode IX release date is slated for May 24, 2019, the Walt Disney Company and Lucasfilm announced today. The as-yet-untitled movie is the final film in the third Star Wars trilogy.
Episode IX's theatrical arrival is a break from recent Star Wars movie tradition; the two newest films in the anthology both came to theaters in December, and the upcoming Star Wars: Episode VIII release date is scheduled for December 15, 2017. This year's episode is titled Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
We know little about Episode IX other than its release date and director, Colin Trevorrow. His best-known film is a little thing called Jurassic World, which you may have heard of. We'll likely have a better idea of where the final chapter is headed after watching Episode VIII.
Disney and Lucasfilm also revealed the fifth installment in the Indiana Jones franchise lands in cinemas on July 10, 2020. Steven Spielberg will direct, as he has every Indy movie, and Harrison Ford is signed up to return as well.
Catch the official teaser trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi below:

Hello everyone, I thought I'd do a little round up post today as I've been posting a lot of reviews so I thought it might be a good idea to break things up a little! I thought I'd chat about the things that have literally been in my makeup bag forever, the things I don't have any intention of changing any time soon. We all have the products we love and then forget about, but these lot have been around in my life for quite some time now.
First up, the Mac Prep + Prime Skin Base has been my primer of choice for a good while now. In fact since I first purchased it, I actually haven't used anything else!
It has a lovely consistency that smooths out my complexion, brightens it up and makes my makeup last all day – I'm not sure theres anything else I could ask for. It also doesn't have that silicone feeling on the skin which I used to love, but now I prefer something like this. Also from Mac, I'm onto my third tube of the Upward Lash Mascara. I'm usually one who once I finish one mascara I'm all for trying something new, but I just can't get enough of this. It gives me amazing volume and length and it doesn't flake all over my face – its a winner. When it comes to my eyes, a lot of the time on an every day basis I don't have time to go all out with the eyeshadow. The Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Creamy Beige not only makes an amazing eyeshadow base, but also looks great on its own too. For my face, I'm probably onto my millionth tube of the Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer – I don't know what it is about it but it covers so well without looking crazy or heavy on the skin, not to mention the fact that the colour match is ah-mazing. My brows have also been blessed with the Brow Beater from Urban Decay, I don't hear people talk about this much but its a wonderful little pencil thats super fine and makes my brows look fabulous. Lastly I've been keeping my contour game strong with the Clinique Chubby Cheeks Contour Stick, its so easy to apply and blends out in seconds. This is one of those products I cannot be without anymore! Cheekbones in a tube. These are some products I've been using a lot but let me know what your staples are too!

2 Muslim Kills Unborn Baby Because Wife Saw a Male Doctor...
A Muslim punches his pregnant girlfriend several times in the abdomen because she was examined by a male doctor.
Thanks to the heavy punches the unborn baby suffered cerebral haemorrhages while still in its mother's womb. It was possible for it to be delivered later through emergency Caesarian section, but it died of its serious injuries two days later in the hospital.
As the child was not born at the time of the action, the indictment against the 21-year-old refers only to "abortion" and not to murder.
The starting point for the fateful event was a routine gynaecological examination of the pregnant woman. As the female doctor who was usually responsible for her was on holiday, the examination was performed by a male substitute on an exceptional basis. For the then 20-year-old boyfriend of the heavily pregnant woman, a practising Muslim, this was horrific.
When the Rheine resident learned of the examination by the doctor, a major row broke out between the couple. In this the perpetrator is said to have struck his seven-month pregnant girlfriend forcefully several times in the abdomen, so that she had to be taken to a hospital, where the foetus died after an emergency birth.
Source: Web.de
UPDATE: The Muslim got 2 years and 9 months for this. His name is Ahmad Sherzai, of Afghan origin but with German citizenship. His girlfriend was of German origin and from a Catholic family.
Both Sherzai and his father ("a devout family") have had a long history of trouble with the police. Why are our governments allowing these savages into our countries then not deporting them when their criminality is proven?

Ok, so maybe Craftsman yellow, but you get the picture! After the boys so diligently mowed the lawn, Hasten loaded up Bailey and drove around with her for at least 30 minutes, if not longer. She had a blast and kept trying to drive!

Talk About Being Caught with Your Hand in the Cookie Jar!
May 28, 2011
We took a drive out to Bellflower to see how bad the damage was from the tornadoes that came through this week. Bailey got real quiet all of a sudden (she had been jabbering the whole trip) and when I turned around, I found this:
She was so tired that she apparently fell asleep right in the middle of digging out a Teddy Graham! It made for a too cute picture that I just couldn't pass up!
Modeling Already?!?
May 26, 2011
Whenever we go anywhere with Bailey, people always comment on how cute she is. I've always thought so, but then I might be biased. 🙂
Today, however, I received a request from the wonderful photographer, Angelique Hunter, that took Bailey's photos regarding a business associate who made one of the hair bows Bailey wore during part of the shoot. Her friend wanted to use Bailey's photo on her website as a model!
I wonder if it's because Bailey is just so darn cute or if it's just because Angelique is such a great photographer? Maybe it's a little bit of both!
See for yourself here: Bailey's first modeling job!! Addie Bella Boutique
(she's second from the end)
School's Out!
May 24, 2011
Today was the boys' last day at school and they had their elementary school awards ceremony this morning. Since I was late getting Bailey over to Steph's, she got to go along with us. For the most part, she watched and clapped, but towards the end she was definitely tired of the sitting. She did get really excited when she saw Tristan up on the stage for his reading award. YAY, Tristan!
But her highlight seemed to wait until all the fuss was over and Hasten was waiting with the other award recipients to have his picture taken for the paper. He won the 6th grade Citizenship award that is presented for leadership in the classroom. YAY, Hasten! But, while he was waiting, she got to sit in his lap and meet all his friends and be the center of attention. Something tells me she's going to think this is the norm soon!
Plus, Bailey picked out a skirt to wear this morning and Johnny TRIED to put pigtails in her hair, but gave up and settled on barrettes instead (you can see she's chewing on one of them). He posted on Facebook that he's come the realization she's a GIRL, like it or not! HA! And, big surprise, he's worried what the next 10-12 years will bring. I think he needs to worry more like 15-16! 😉
All in all, a wonderful day with our wonderful family. I'm proud of them all!
May 23, 2011
With all the crazy hours Johnny was working last week, he didn't get his first morning Bailey smile every day this week since he had to go in before she woke up. And we are so fortunate that she wakes up every morning with such a wonderful grin!
So, I took this one for him so he'd have his morning smile! All I had to say was "smile for Daddy" and she simply grinned from ear to ear!
Look at all those new teeth!!
I'm a Big Girl

It clicked today in Bailey's head that she can move that faithful blue stool around the house and use it to climb up on anything. We're in some serious trouble now!!!!
Here, she's climbed up on the couch and you can see by her expression how very pleased she is with herself for this latest accomplishment.
After the couch, she moved it over to Johnny's recliner to climbed up in it! But, alas, competition for the stool is fierce and Bella kept knocking her off as SHE wanted up there!
Turtle Time!
May 20, 2011
Got another wonderful surprise couple of pictures from Stephanie today. Apparently, a turtle wandered up to the patio and the kids had a field day with it, especially Bailey.
I'm guessing if I hadn't picked her up today (she has another ear infection, so off to the doctor we went!) I just bet Johnny would have brought the poor little thing home along with her! I know where she comes by her love of animals, but did she have to also get Johnny's love of creepy crawlers?!?!?
May 20, 2011
Being the wonderful grandma she is, my mother-in-law brought over a great big toy box for Bailey to stuff all her stuff in. So far, it contains a whopping 2 books and Quackster.
So, with Bella locked up in her cage, Quackster can come out of the toy box and play. (Bella and Quackster don't get along because Bella thinks he's a giant dog toy made just for her!) This means, of course, Bailey can joyously flop onto him and burst into giggles in the process. It's truly a great time to be had by all.
Well, tonight, she took her flopping to a new level. Since I accidentally sat too close to the toy box (on which Bailey had already placed it's very sturdy lid), Bailey came up with the bright idea that she could climb onto my folded leg and use me as a step stool to get up on top of the toy box. She'd then scoot over to the edge and carefully slide off to the ground. Mind you, it's probably a good 2′ high, so it's quite a slide for those little legs. Needless to say, several slides ended in a facedown splat. But, being the trooper she is, she never once cried (she laughed each time!) and got right back up to do it again.
On one particular feat, however, I happened to glance off just for a split second and she scooted too far to the BACK edge of the toy box and toppled right off the back, conveniently onto Quackster. And you could literally SEE the lightbulb go off.
She jumped up and ran back to the step stool (I was tired of being a human one and dragged that faithful blue one over there!), climbed up on top and THREW herself off the top of the toy box onto Quackster. Again. And again. And again, accompanied only with tons of giggles.
All i can say is she's obviously gotten Johnny's daredevil spirit because God knows I'd never do anything like that. Oh boy, are we going to have our hands full as she gets older!!
Cookies for Breakfast?!? You KNOW it's a Good Day!
May 18, 2011
When I was dropping Bailey off at Stephanie's this morning, one of the other kids had chocolate chip cookies he was sitting there eating. Since it was a quiet morning with just a few kids, Steph allowed them to share and have a cookie each and some milk.
Bailey, of course, tried to cram the cookie in her mouth vertically instead of normal. So, Steph says, "No Bailey, take a bite this way (turning the cookie flat). No, WAIT, not THAT big of a bite!!"
What can I say, she's her Daddy's girl! So, as I walked out and she's waving goodbye, cookie in the other hand, she grins and I see she's already covered in chocolate. So, I naturally had to grab my phone and snap this cute picture!
Of course, she's such a good girl, after I took the picture, Bailey immediately offered to share the gummed up nasty mess with Stephanie. Big surprise that Steph politely refused! 😉
Jack's Big Music Show
May 17, 2011
Monday morning was Johnny's off day and so he interrupted our morning ritual to turn on Nick Jr. And he stumbled upon Bailey's new reason to wake up each morning: Jack's Big Music Show.
Johnny said, "I think she's just a musical baby." Not sure where she got that from, although God knows I sing at the top of my lungs to the car radio thanks to that positive upbringing of Mama AND Daddy! Maybe it is me. But, for the record, Johnny sings, too!!
Well, she sits there spellbound until she tries to start singing AND dancing along with them. It's hilarious. If you haven't heard of it, give it a google…maybe you'll be spellbound, too. Or, maybe like the dance they taught today, you'll just "wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, STOP!" Bailey found this uproarious!!

Search Supreme Court Cases
U.S. Supreme Court
Kramer v. Caribbean Mills, Inc., 394 U.S. 823 (1969)
Kramer v. Caribbean Mills, Inc.
No. 156
Argued January 23, 1969
Decided May 5, 1969
Respondent, a Haitian corporation, contracted with a Panamanian corporation to purchase some of the latter's stock for an $85,000 downpayment and $165,000 in 12 annual installments. No installment payments were made, despite demands by the Panamanian company, which thereafter assigned its interest in the contract to petitioner, a Texas attorney, for $1. By a separate agreement, petitioner promised to pay the Panamanian company 95% of any net recovery "solely as a Bonus." Petitioner filed a diversity action against respondent in the District Court and obtained a jury verdict for $165,000. That court denied respondent's motion to dismiss for want of jurisdiction. The Court of Appeals reversed, finding that the assignment was "improperly or collusively made" within the meaning of 28 U.S.C. § 1359.
Held: The assignment was "improperly or collusively made" within the meaning of § 1359, as the "manufacture of Federal jurisdiction" was the very thing Congress intended to prevent by the enactment of § 1359 and its predecessors. Pp. 394 U. S. 825-830.
(a) The legality of the assignment under Texas law does not render it valid for purposes of federal jurisdiction, as the existence of federal jurisdiction is a matter of federal, not state, law. P. 394 U. S. 829.
(b) Section 1359 applies to diversity jurisdiction arising from the alienage of a party as well as that based on residence in different States. Pp. 829-830.
392 F.2d 387, affirmed.

The characters of InuYasha are not mine, they are property of Rumiko Takahashi, Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, Sunrise, and Viz. I do not make any money from the writing of this story.
Chapter 1:
He sat at home waiting, it was beneath him to wait on any being let alone a human female, how he had gotten himself into this situation he'd never know. She had to have been some type of seductress, and her scent was very pleasing when they met, her body was for a human acceptable and on their first 'date' she had allowed him to bed her. He was not at all surprised to find he was not her first, the scent of other males was deeply embedded into her being and had lingered there, but he didn't care. She had turned out to be a great rut at the time, her loose ways allowing for his girthy member to slide effortlessly into her while still feeling the not so tight sheath around him, he found himself if nothing else oddly possessive of his 'chew toy', well not really possessive in the way an inu would protect a mate, more so he just didn't want to share. He shook his head at the bad analogy and his pet name for the wench, being a damn dog demon sometimes, "Demandable chew toy." he murmured to himself. Sighing he got up when he heard a knock at the door.
In his home he'd had the lights off while sitting in the dark waiting for the bitch so he could give her a piece of his mind before fucking her so hard she wouldn't be able to walk let alone leave for a week, damn the sexual frustration , he thought angrily. He didn't need them to see and she wasn't there so what was the point, beyond that it normally meant he didn't have people knocking at his door at, he checked his watch, 9:30 pm at night, for surely a being with common since would stay away from this particular home.
Opening the door with such venom and fierceness as though he might be running from fire, he was just about to bellow something rude to whom ever it was standing there when he saw her. The scent that he had smelled on his 'chew toy' when he'd first met her in that bar so many months ago, the miko, her sister, Kagome, stood before him. Now his 'chew toy', Kikyo , he had to remind himself constantly lest he actually call her that to her face one day, was shallow, vain, lustful, hell she was a walking sin in almost everyway. Her sister on the other hand was the opposite, her being exuded coolness, a soft composure even when her aura was murderous, oh and he couldn't forget about that always humming thrum of power just below her skin.
Her scent, when he finally realized it didn't belong to his 'chew toy' was divine, he wonder how these two could be almost identical but be so different. Then he remembered himself and Inuyasha --which explained exactly how two like beings could be so different--, her current boyfriend if he remembered the half-whit half demons rant correctly, hadn't he said that his bitch wouldn't put out , Sesshomaru had laughed in his face telling him about what a great rut his 'chew toy' was. He remembered the hanyou had turned red in the face, tucked tail and run, oh how he loved to goad his little half brother into feeling like crap. It wasn't that he really hated Inuyasha, it was more so what he symbolized, what his being cost Sesshomaru that made the siblings loath one another, much to their fathers dismay.
He eyed the onyx haired onna from top to bottom and then back up again, she wore a solid black trench coat, obviously because the night was cool so there was nothing to really throw him off there. Her hair was down for once, where as she usually had it up in a loose bun at the nape of her skull, secretly he had always wondered how long that black tress was, as it turned out it hung to the small of her back in long thick curly waves, rippling almost. Another thing off about the onna other then the fact that she was here in the first place, were her legs and her shoes. Her legs he had never once seen, they had always been covered by jeans or pants, she was a professional, and worked at his father's company a few floors below him actually. Her shoes too were off from her normally clad in tennis, flats, or low heels, she had on black pumps, stilettos to be exact.
He noticed her small waist and was once again realizing that he'd only seen her in t-shirts, blouses, or dress shirts, that all hid her tiny and curvaceous figure, coming up further he noticed that even through the trench coat she was well endowed. Finally he wondered what she was doing here, and voiced his question, "What are you doing here?" he asked even though he'd just asked himself the same thing. Her composure ever as cool as his own, smoky blue grey eyes locked with vibrant amber, she said nothing as she handed him a digital camera, and walked passed him into his home, uninvited, he growled to himself. She didn't turn on the lights as her powers flared to life in her eyes, allowing her to see just as well as he. She sat on his blood crimson blood sofa and watched as he flipped the camera on, the small buzz of the lens moving in and out before he started flipping through the images.
The small 4.0" x 2.75" screen gave way to a myriad of imagines of his younger half brother with his 'chew toy' whom by scent he had once assumed was with the female currently sitting on his sofa, as though she had not just ruined his night , he thought dejectedly. There in full color images was his 'chew toy', her legs wrapped around the hips of his almost hated now anyway, half brother, steam rising up, in the shower against a wall. The images moved like a movie though they were still, and almost as if to answer his question, "Its not quiet professional but it takes about ten still shots per second, its got excellent shutter speed. " she said nonchalantly. As he continued through them images of the pair together, then them noticing the camera, their shocked faces, his 'chew toy's' angry and then satisfied face, the horrified face of his half-sibling as he tried to turn to stop her.
"How did you get these pictures?" he asked as he held up her camera.
"It's a hobby of mine," she said looked at the camera. "I love taking pictures, to capture a moment in life." She sighed at the sight of his brow raising. "I came home and saw a wonderful line of cloths heading for the bedrooms, my master bedroom and another, his, share bathrooms. I walked in camera in hand ready to show him these great shots of got of an old priest at a shrine, black and white stills. I didn't notice that some of the closed were feminine, until I got to the shower and saw them, I opened the door and watched for a second before I clicked the shot a few times. It was like looking at a car crash, morbidly fascinating and yet all you want to do is look away, you can't because it reminds one that eventually all things die." she paused again as he shock his head to agree, it was how he felt eons before when bloodshed was as simple as a flick of his wrist. "She was happy that she was ruining my relationship. He and I met in college, I suppose I should be angry, but I had and still have other things in mind." nonchalantly he flipped passed the pictures of his 'chew toy' to see the black and white images, it was a shrine, and many of them were very captivating. One in particular showing an old priest, whose wrinkled face looked like dried cracked desert earth. The old man was smiling gently at a young boy who looked to be about six, they were playing a game of cards. In comparison it was an amazing analogy of human life and how short yet long it was.
"And so you came here?" he asked raising a brow. "What exactly did you have in mind?"
"Well, there are two old sayings Mr. Taishou that reflect my current mood and standing, 'Hell hath no fury as a woman scorned.' and my personal favorite, 'To error is human, to seek revenge, is divine.'" she stated as she smirked at him. He couldn't help but notice how her voice was seductive as she spoke, truly that night long ago when he found his 'chew toy' he should have found this woman instead. It was alarming to think that she was here and now, sitting like a sexed up dominatrix, her legs crossed revealing a little of her taught thigh, her lips plumped and pouty, her eyes smoky, and well her motives, he could easily see them but he wanted to know.
"Just what did you have in mind?" he asked her again while looking over her body.
"Do you dance?" she asked in a voice that was a sultry and sinful sounding as a lover in the throws of climax. He raised his brow at her in question.
"There's a small club downtown, its mostly locals that dance, not that 'shake your booty crap', but real dancing. He knows its usually the first place I go to cool off. I want to make him see red, and your at the top of the list of people he hates. So its perfect. Beside dancing with me is like sex in motion on a hard wooden floor in high heels, if I do say so myself." she said as he could smell her arousal building slowly, her dull teeth biting lightly on that plump lower lip.
"How will dancing make him see red, and how would it benefit me?" he asked though he really didn't care. If he got to have her body pressed up against his then he'd do it just because, let alone to get a rise out of his half-sibling, then it was worth it.
"Perhaps a demonstration is in order, and you never answered my question though, do you dance? It'll be much easier if you can." she intoned as she stood and began to take off her black knee length trench coat. He watched as the coat was pulled from her very curvy form, her legs he finally noticed went on for what seemed like miles, her skin was sun kissed as if she were a daughter of Ikarus. The high heels pushed her form up making her stand at attention, the pert nipples upon her breast begging for attention as they hardened due to the chill of his home, he was a demon, he didn't need the heat. The dress she wore would be scandalous if he didn't know she meant to go dancing, it hugged her figure like a second skin, leaving little to the imagination, save the color of those gumdrop nipples he was now aching to have in his mouth, and if she was bare or carpeted in her nether regions.
It was a halter dress, in his color, white. A small pattern of sakura blossoms on the longer end of the skirt that hung he now noticed right above the hem of her trench coat, while the higher side on her left hip but towards the front of her thigh came dangerously close to exposing her 'feminine charms.' His mouth went dry as he took the sight of her in, she turned from him to fold the coat neatly, he assumed so it had no foreign wrinkles in the material, and noticed the only thing holding the dress in place were two well placed knots.
One of these knots was at the top, sitting on her neck and shoulders, just below the mess of onyx mane, the second sat low on her back just above what he could finely make out were two very nice round fleshy globes. As she turned though what caught his attention was her back, her longer then modern tress had swayed in her wake, exposing taught tight muscles, every muscle she could have there was well defined, but not in a muscular or barbaric way, they were delicate, yet she had little fat on her body as most females did. Now he wondered what the rest of her looked like, he knew no matter what the out come he was going to find out.
Kagome stood in front of the youkai lord, she was no fool, not like her twin, Kikyo was fucking around on the one demon that would kill her for it, she might deserve what she got. Her older sister had always been the poorer of the two in miko skills, and natural talent, not to mention academically, and physically. Kagome herself had done many things in her short twenty four years of living, not only was she a retired gymnast, dancer, trained highly in war and combat, both in ancient methods of sword, bow, and handless, as well as modern methods of knife, and military combat, she also held a few titles of her own. She was 'the great miko' of Japan -- luckily that was a well kept secret even from her family--, guardian of the Shikon jewel which rested under her heart and rib cage, she had graduated from Tokyo U. with honors, and unlike her sister she had not needed to sleep her way into a wonderful job.
Yet for all her accomplishments in life, Kikyo had led the easier life, she had the friends and social life when Kagome had been at home or in numerous lessons to further her skills and training. In all her life she had but four true friends, who never saw her for what she could do, but whom she was, and they were all waiting for her at the dance club. Lining up her body with Sesshomaru's still standing form, she lightly took the camera from his hand and tossed it carelessly to the crimson sofa next to her coat. Taking his clawed hand on her lower back, he instinctively splayed his fingers over her skin, her left foot was placed back from their forms, her right between his shoulder with parted feet. Sending him a sultry glance she said low and sultry, "Try not to drop me." Flashing a 'mona lisa' smile she began.
He watched as her body moved to some unheard music, but easily he could tell it was a sinfully arousing dance, her own arousal was almost deafening to his scenes as it tainted the air, had he no will power, he'd have thrown her on the floor and fucked her raw right then, 'chew toy' be damned. In an instant though it was over, but not before that right leg was back in position, her thigh pressing hard against his growing stiff member, while her left leg had risen up and wrapped itself around his hip. Her lithe body was bent down, so that from his position he could see her stretched out torso, and the heave of her large round breasts. Pulled herself up he noticed now, that for a short woman, she had effectively met face to face with him, while releasing a breathy little moan that was almost inaudible. He had to bit his lower lip hard drawing blood not to take her, as he growled lightly in pleasure, she was right her dancing was like 'sex in motion.'
"As for what you can benefit from assisting me,..." she ground her thigh into his erection, kissed and licked his throat, --being a miko she had to know youkai low, body language, and protocol so as not to offend the easily offended creatures--, she knew very well that in body language of the Inu youkai she had just promised him pleasure. "I can make the night worth your wild. Also you'd get to see that pompous windbag of a half sibling watch as you get something he's wanted for years. I'm no fool Mr. Taishou, the sibling rivalry you share with that twit is legend. He's gotten the love of a mother and father while you were trained for war and to be a leader. His life has been leisurely and lackadaisical, while you have had to take care of everything, he was even given the legendary sword of destruction while you were given the sword of heaven." she paused as cool blue grey eyes locked with his own, "I know first hand what burden, duty, responsibility, and honor feels like, and how watching another live a carefree life can make you want to crush them. Now the only two questions I have are, do you want to help me, and if so, do you dance?"
Sesshomaru was at a lose for words, his brain was slowly processing all that the tiny slip of a female had offered him, he had been lost when she kissed his throat and licked him, the intimate sign that she wanted to either be pleasured by him or wanted to pleasure him, either way he wanted it. It took longer for all of her words to set in, what had she meant, that he could have something that the demandable half-breed wanted but never had, he intended to find out and ask her he did. "What could this Sesshomaru have that the hanyou has longed for?" he asked in a rather rough voice, that told her his beast was waking. Taking her hand, the tiny delicate fingers finding the thick silken fine silver tress, she pressed his face forward her as she bared her neck to him.
"What do you smell?" she asked in a slightly husky voice. He took a deep breath and processed her scent, there were orange blossoms, tea, lunar flowers, and power, but beyond that was innocence. There was no other scent on her, not make-up, nor perfume, and certainly no male, she was a virgin. His eyes bled crimson as he licked roughly against the skin of her swanlike neck, closing her eyes lightly as she sucked in a slow breath, Kagome moaned.
"Woman your playing a dangerous game." he said as his hands began to roam her body, causing a moan again.
"Perhaps, but its possible that I just want someone stable, not to mention that I would love to see the look on his face when he sees me in your arms." she answered with amazing clarity she truly did not have.
"I could have you here and now, why go to the trouble of going out, the hanyou would know when he scented you." he stated with a rough edge to his voice his eyes still as crimson as ever.
"What would be the fun of that" she pouted as she held her breath a bit "... just him being hurt? She played an equal part, she deserves to be taught a lesson just as much. But I assure you I'm not the one to look the fool when everything is said and done, if I didn't get your help I still have my innocence. While you have a wayward bitch who sought the dick of another male, you half human half brother's to be exact, the slight would roll off me, and you would still be forced to deal with it." she chided as he threw her back against the wall his hand clinching dangerously around her neck. Seething with venom he replied.
"You dare insult this Sesshomaru, lesser beings have died for less, bitch." he spat. To his credit, she had to admit he took the verbal jab better then she would have thought, it was a low blow, but she was tired of both Inuyasha and Kikyo. Inuyasha because he had always pushed her to go farther then she wanted sexually, and when she refused he found what he wanted in another, casting her away like trash. Kikyo, because she had the easier life and had not had to endure such trials as Kagome had, because she had taken Inuyasha, not that Kagome wanted him now, and because she had actually been proud of herself for doing it. What would their mother think of them both she wondered, not paying attention to the angry inu male who's grip held her fast to the wall. Sighing she returned her thoughts to the male in front of her, as a scowl grew on her beautiful face, her powers were ready to defend her from this threat, it was only her control keeping them from destroying him.
Sesshomaru never saw or felt it coming, the small onna had been in his grasp, obviously not paying attention to him, when he saw conclusion draw in her eyes before her beautiful face drew into delicate scowl. The force of whatever hit him sent him flying across the room, when he next looked up he saw the onna glowing a fiery hot pink, her whole being looked as though she had literally been set on fire, and she looked glorious for it. His eyes went back to gold, as her eyes were now a fierce white, and burned his very soul to look upon, her plump lips set in a slight frown, and her scowl darkening as she looked upon him. "You can help me if you calm the fuck down and we can have a fun time doing it. I can leave and take of the situation at hand but that was not what I had in mind. Or I can kill you leaving nothing but a pile of ash in my wake before going to deal with the hanyou. As a miko I assure you I'll be breaking no laws by killing a youkai in self defense. What would you like to do, oh overly passionate one?" she greeted out through tightly clenched teeth.
Waiting to answer her in silence he watched her, the thrum of power he'd smelt below the surface was this, he hadn't even felt her aura, now though he could see it visible, a remarkable feat in it self he still could not feel it, were he not a taiyoukai he wouldn't know what a possible danger this female could be. "Something stable?" he finally said breaking the silence.
"It occurred to me some time ago that I need a strong male in my life, as husband, a lover, a mate, I'm not exactly like other human females. I can't just give myself to anyone, when I came of age I was told that I would have to seek out an honorable male, which in this day and time there aren't a lot. I thought I had finally found him, but it seems I was wrong, but I never fully set my sites on him alone, I have always kept an eye out for the perfect male. It just so happens you happen to fit the mold. Where as I'm not overly thrilled that I don't know you very well personally, I can feel my soul literally calm around you, my skin feels like its on fire from your touch, and sadly as strong as I am I find it hard to not throw myself at you as so many others have." she answered, as he thought over his feelings.
What she said was true for himself as well. Inu could tell by scent alone if a female or male was right for them, her scent was beyond pleasing, not to mention it had his beast stirring, something that had not happened in a very long time. Could this onna be his intended, the bitch designed for him by the kami's and the great inu of the past for him and him alone? There was a possibility that she was, he would surely not take a weak bitch as his mate... weak she was not, especially because he couldn't even feel her aura which had to be massive if he could literally see it. Her scent literally had his eyes bleeding crimson, not to mention just by the slight feel of her pressed against him, his body had reacted. It wasn't that he had lacked in the rutting department, no he had had a willing 'chew toy' for months now, and the rutting had been decent enough for him to keep her, so that was not the case. He needed to taste her blood, that would be a true test to see if she was indeed made for him.
"Dancing?" he asked as he sat up and raised a brow to her, he noted that unlike other females her arousal was pleasing, not over powering, that she had control over herself and had yet to openly throw her body at him. She was modest to a point, he knew that from having spent little time with her, then there was her obvious lack of fear. A female should never fear her mate out right or without warrant, which she didn't and even his 'chew toy' feared him most of the time. This female was defiant, and willful, not submissive as all other bitches before her had been, she was refreshing and he wanted her, his beast wanted her. Could he make that commitment? To bind her life to his, to protect her, to sire her hanyou children? He did not hate humans, or hanyous for that matter, he hated Inuyasha because he was the proof that his father had broken his vows and his mother's heart to have the human woman and allow his birth to occur. Inuyasha was simply proof of the insult to his mother.
If nothing else his father would be at least a little pleased if he finally settled down, the old man had been hounding him literally to mate and produce an heir. The old lord would rest easy knowing that the West would be taken care of, he would be pleased with this spitfire of a woman as a 'daughter-n-law.' He was reminded of his sire's reaction when he met his 'chew toy' for the first and only time, Inutaishou had literally said he was disappointed, even as a plaything his 'chew toy' was loose, his father had asked him only one thing, "Your using protection correct? I don't want grand-pups from that female." he stated coldly, causing Sesshomaru to chuckle at the thought as he had then. His response was quick, "This Sesshomaru would not allow her the pleasure, and yes of course." he answered his sire.
"Mmhmm, dancing. Look I'd like to get there before its too late," she said planting her tiny fists upon her seductively wide hips and looking at him fiercely still, "... if you don't want to help me I'm sure I can find Kouga, he and Inuyasha hate each other too, though I don't think I could be with Kouga.." she murmured the last bit to herself, not noticing the slight pink edge into the whites of Sesshomaru's eyes.
"How do you know the mangy wolf?" he all but growled, causing Kagome to look at him and smile.
"He was always hitting on me, even with Inuyasha around, not to mention I've had to work with him on a few accounts at work before. Nice guy once you get past the whole 'blockhead' thing." she said waving the idea of Kouga from her mind. "Hmm, I don't think I could stand to be around Naraku enough for this to happen and well he sure as hell isn't getting close enough to dance with me, but Inuyasha does indeed loath him, though. But I'm not sure there were rumors that he's a possible rapist." she said still ignoring the slightly enraged inu. He knew Naraku, he'd worked for Taishou corp. before getting fired due to sexual harassment, he'd cost the company millions in a lawsuit with some female named 'Kagura.' Deciding he didn't like other males names running off her lips he made up his mind, though he knew how, he didn't often do it, he would be dancing tonight, both vertically and horizontally.
"You will wait while I change into something more suitable, this Sesshomaru will not allow you to be the only one to seek revenge tonight. And your offer is accepted." he stated while leaving her to get changed and showered. He smiled to himself once out of site, he would have his mate by mornings first light, and Inuyasha would be able to do nothing. He made mental notes that they would have to burn everything that the other's ex had touched, he didn't want anything she owned to smell like his half brother, and he certainly didn't want to smell the 'chew toy' now that he had his Kagome.
"Offer?" she asked aloud and still silently wondering what he was talking about, never of coarse thinking she had blatantly promised pleasure, and that he was her desired male, which in the language of inu's meant she wanted him for a mate.[color=#000080][/color]

The short itinerary gives the opportunity to reach a naturalistic area of great value, offering beautiful views over the banks of the river Po where, above all in winter, it is possible to observe several species of ducks, and the landscapes of Rio Corno Chiaro.
From the bridge on the river Po in Verolengo, between Chivasso and Crescentino, head northwards for the SP road and, after a few hundred meters, turn right on the dirt road leading among the fields. The road turns left and shortly after right, keeping on the left a small lake and shortly leading to a recreational area at the shadow of the trees, where it is possible to stop for a picnic. Continue your tour within the recreational area and take then an excerise course, now abandoned, with Rio Corno Chiaro on the left and the fields on the right. Gradually head right and reach the banks of the river Po, exactly in front of Baraccone Nature Reserve. Cautiously getting closer, it is possible to carry out interesting observations of the birds populating the river environment, characterized here by beautiful gravelly shores and riparian woods. Following the dirt road on the left, you will deviate again from the river Po to reach a ford on Rio Corno Chiaro, where it becomes broader and forms a very charming environment. This watercourse is partly fed by Canale Cavour and partly by a reemerging spring. Long 15 kilometers, it forms along its course 3 oxbows, one of which near the ford. You can go ahead for a short stretch on the right, without crossing the ford, until you will get closer to the waters of the river Po. Shortly after, the road becomes surrounded by vegetation and the route becomes demanding (about 4 km).
Go back to the recreational area along the same itinerary, then follow the road on the right, cross Rio Corno Chiaro, and you will find another dirt road. Take it on the left and, after a few hundred meters, you will reach the SP road. Follow it turning left until you will return to the departure point, the bridge on the river Po (about 6 km).
(Text by Stefano Camanni)
The itinerary develops on asphalt and dirt roads, in some stretches in bad conditions. For the itinerary on foot, it is recommended to reach the recreational area by car.

I found a mating pair of Gatekeepers,the butterfly that can easily be mistaken for the quest specie as they flit about up high in the Blackberry blossom.
The path between the rape field and the Blackthorn bushes leading to the bottom of the reserve is shown below,plenty of Thistles,Wild Parsnip,Alfalfa and grasses are situated along each side of the path.
From this point they flew into the Bramble where the female started imbibing on the blossom-
"Charming" I must say!!!
They still made a charming couple.
The only other moth seen was one of those mysteries that need further investigation which is possibly too worn. Many thanks to Tim Norris of Hants & IOW Butterfly Conservation for the name of the below micro moth which is Celypha lacunana. Not as exciting as previously this week but at least it blew out the cobwebs.

Sometimes life just doesn't go the way you planned. I know they say when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. But it's not always that easy, and sometimes you just need to throw yourself a little pity party before you can get on and deal with those lemons. As I'm sure you can guess – things haven't quite gone my way in the past few days. So I took some time out, and Friday night had myself a lovely pity party for one.
It started out by picking up some foodie treats, just because I could.
I picked up these organic, raw, vegan macaroon type cookies at Home Sense – love the random food things you can find there.
I couldn't pass up the Pineapple Macadamia Nut flavour…
…or the classic Vanilla Almond. Yum!
I'll report back once I've tried them.
I also couldn't pass up the Lindt Sea Salt Dark Chocolate Bars – the price was too nice.
Dark chocolate is always a little bit better with a touch of sea salt.
But I didn't just buy myself a few presents. I also made myself an excellent pity party dinner.
It started with a little vino…obviously.
Nk'Mip Cellars 2008 Merlot – I had picked it up awhile back for a meal I cooked, but never ended up drinking it. I couldn't let it go to waste!
Then I assembled my dinner – what, you expected me to actually cook? Pfft – pity party also equals lazy. At least I didn't get take out!
I bought a nice loaf of A Bread Affair artisan bread at work, and toasted it with a little double cream brie.
And kicked it up a notch with a dollop of my aunt's homemade red pepper jelly.
I was really craving soup, and our store's cream of wild mushroom is amazing.
With a little genoa salami, I had myself a perfect pity party comfort meal.
What more could you need? Creamy, cheesey, salty, and wine-y(?)…
…actually, one thing was missing. Chocolatey.
My favourite cookie from our bakery – the chocolate covered almond mac. You can never go wrong.
I added the fresh raspberries simply because I had them. First local raspberries of the season. Amazing.
And although it was a party for one, technically I had a guest.
Sometimes the fur babies are the only ones you need when things aren't going your way. Especially since they won't try and drink your wine 😉
Note: Although I'm willing to share my pity party with you on the blog, I'm not going to divulge exactly what's happened. Just know that there is no need to worry, I'm going to be just fine – it will just take a little time 🙂

BlogBe abreast with the industry insights, news, technologies and trends. Make a difference
to your business leveraging on the knowledge shared by experts.
Majority of the organizations as well as the companies that want to put their signature on the virtual world of the net have the inclination to avail the best search engine optimization services at the lowest cost. It is really something that needs to be debated at the earliest. Search engine optimization is not your regular type of effort or practice. It is really something that needs a lot of insight as well as an uncanny knack of thinking unconventionally as well out of the box in the majority of the cases.
SEO Search engine optimization in short is not your regular cup of tea. Here you are not competing or trying to outperform people in a limited region or place. In the world of internet, you are competing with thousands or rather millions of companies that are involved in the same business or operating in the same territories. In such circumstances it is really challenging to get the name of your company onto the first pages of the search engines. But the question remains the same that whether you can get the same results at the minimal of prices. Cheap search engine optimization is something that in my opinion is a mirage. A company that is offering you the cheapest services can guarantee you the top rankings, but that ranking would not be durable.
Well, many people might argue that outsourcing the Search engine optimization work to some other region where the talent is abundant but the price is lowest can be your answer to cheap search engine optimization. But that again can only be taken with a pinch of salt. In countries that offer SEO services at the cheapest of prices, there are myriad of other issues that can hamper your online promotional efforts. Factors like, political stability, economic health, and social milieu along with the proper infrastructure go a long way in determining the capacity of the business investment in that country.
In my opinion it is always better that rather than looking for cheap Search Engine optimization, it is always better to search for a company that is operating in a safe and a secure environment and charging reasonably.

What a lesson.
First observe the utter disrespect with which the donors are treated. The 'victims' barely acknowledge them, push past them to inspect the offerings, and then utter not one word of thanks for what they receive. Then the scams set in. The same people coming around for seconds, followed by their rushing the van and seizing everything they can get their paws on. And get this: They then sell the excess product to other inmates in the camp.
Finally comes a vignette which really says it all. Sudanese inmates discover that the 'Best Before' date on some of the food has been exceeded. They are outraged! The pathetic donors imbibe some of the food themselves to prove that it's ok. But no, these African Muslims fling the produce on the ground, an act which actually elicits some annoyance from the SJWs.
Totally pathetic. But maybe it will turn out to be a Learning Experience for other SJWs out there. So please, forward the link to this post (or to the video) to as many people as you can.

Another of many indicators that there is no improvement is the terrible plight of employment among men of the prime working ages 25 -54 years old. Unemployment among men of these ages has continued to climb at rates in excess of population growth since the government declared recession supposedly ended.
It sure is difficult for Obama and the government to call a spade a spade. This is some recovery when 12% of men of the prime working ages are unemployed!

12 Nov 2018 in Match Reports
Wythenshawe Town crashed out the Macron Cup at the hands of Avro FC after they lost 7-0 at the Vestacare Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
Town visiting Avro for the second time in cup competitions this season were very much in the game throughout the open exchanges, with Brad Byrne having the best chance. After Avro goalkeeper Jordan Latham cleared the ball straight into the path of Byrne, the Town attacker struck a powerful effort, only to see it go over the crossbar.
From there on in though the hosts took control and on 13 minutes they could have taken the lead when they were awarded a penalty. Striker Regan Jarrett stepped up but debutant goalkeeper Mason Mostyn guessed right and kept the spot kick out keeping the tie level.
Jarret was in the thick of the action again just before the half-hour mark when a long ball forward from Kane Wallwork reached the Avro striker but his effort from inside the area went just over the upright. Just a minute later though Avro did take the lead after a shot was deflected on the edge of the area it fell into the path of Wallwork who ran onto and struck across Mostyn into his far corner.
The hosts doubled their lead just a few minutes later after a terrific move saw a ball played into the feet of Jake Pollard who swivelled his marker in the penalty area and fired beyond Mostyn to ensure Avro went into the break with a two-goal advantage.
Halftime: Avro 2-0 Wythenshawe Town
After the break, it was all Avro and within five minutes of the break, they had their third of the afternoon when they won a free kick on the edge of the penalty area and Kane Wallwork fires his free-kick beyond Mostyn.
Just after the hour mark, the hosts grabbed their fourth of the afternoon when a long ball forward beat the Town offside trap and found Joe Bevan before the Avro attacker rounded Mostyn and fired into an empty net!
The hosts didn't stop there as they added the fifth and sixth of the afternoon in quick succession. First, Joseph Rathbone met a terrific ball into the penalty area from the left to head beyond Mostyn and then just a couple of minutes later, substitute Duncan Knott picked up the ball and terrifically struck an effort into the corner of the net from 25 yards out!
Town were then dealt with another blow as goalkeeper Mostyn was forced off injured and after using all three substitutes meant that Ste Yarwood had to take over the gloves. Yarwood managed to keep anything out until stoppage time when Knott added a second after been picked out by Daniel Grimshaw from the left and he fired behind Yarwood.
Full time: Avro 7-0 Wythenshawe Town

This charming crochet hat sits close to the head and features a slight brim, much like the vintage cloche hats in fashion. Worked as a main beanie portion and then an attached crochet brim, this crochet hat looks fantastic in contrasting colors. Don't let the unevenness of the flap portion scare you, you'll be working back and forth in rows using crochet stitches of varying heights to achieve an unbalanced look to the brim. This is definitely an easy hat that looks more complicated than it is!

It was billed as a hearing on declaring a drought warning for much of New Jersey, but for many of those who showed up it was an opportunity to plead with officials to step up planning to deal with water issues confronting the state.
"The Water Supply Master Plan. The Water Supply Master Plan. The Water Supply Master Plan,'' said Bill Kibler, policy director of the Raritan Headwaters Association, repeating the theme often mentioned during the hearing held by the state Department of Environmental Protection. "Have you got the message today?''
The failure of the Christie administration to update the 20-year-old state water plan is a source of continuing frustration for many conservation groups, one that has taken on added significance as large parts of New Jersey are on the cusp of the first drought warning since 2001.
The declaration is imminent, just days away, according to Dan Kennedy, an assistant DEP commissioner, but a more dire drought emergency is weeks, maybe months from being announced. If so, it could lead to mandatory water-use restrictions for residents and businesses.
Eighteen New Jersey counties already are under a drought watch, an event in which voluntary conservation steps are recommended. If a drought warning is issued, it would give the DEP more authority to transfer water between areas suffering from severe deficits as well; develop alternative sources of drinking water; and complete interconnections between water purveyors.
Most of those who showed up for the hearing urged the department to waste no time in declaring the warning, with some chastising it for not doing so already. Some key reservoirs are hovering around 50 percent of normal and rainfall forecasts are not very promising.
Others suggested stepped-up water conservation efforts and more long-term planning to deal with water shortages, urging the administration and Legislature to renew a focus on investing in the state's aging water infrastructure. At least 20 percent of the treated drinking water leaks from pipes before ever getting to a home or business.
"It's way too late,'' said Kathleen Foley, a resident of Colts Neck, saying the state should have issued a drought warning already. "We're in a severe drought.''
After the hearing, Kennedy defended the department's action. The state water supply plan is still in development, he said, and will be made public when it is completed. "New Jersey has all the tools it needs to deal with the state's water resources in times like these,'' he added.
Beyond water shortages, the state also is experiencing repeated cases of contamination of drinking water supplies by various pollutants, along with the long-recognized problem of lead leaching into drinking water from older fixtures and plumbing.
At the hearing, representatives from water companies also urged the state to make sure areas where customers have invested in upgrading supplies do not end up subsidizing areas where those investments have not been made.

Compare what the US pays for a gas tax compared to the rest of the world (graph is Canadian cents per liter).
Now ask yourself this question - Should we spend our limited tax dollars (and right of way) intended for free roads, on toll roads? The answer is simple when you compare the costs.
Assuming your vehicle gets 20 miles per gallon, and the increase in indexed gas tax was 10 cents a gallon, you would spend less than .5 cent a mile for an indexed gas tax. Compare that to the 15 cent a mile toll road that would cost 30 times the indexed gas tax per mile. A 20 cents a mile toll would cost 40 times the indexed gas tax, and so on.
Nearly everything we purchase has an indexed tax - a fair form of taxation.
Some folks refuse the indexed gas tax as well as tolls. In my opinion, if you don't recognize the political fight is the toll tax or indexed gas tax you are not being realistic or reasonable. If you don't have a politically viable solution to fight for, you are wasting your time - spinning your wheels - and destined to fail.
Based on the recent Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) report, indexing the gas tax and placing the incremental revenue in the mobility fund to pay off bonds allows us to build the roads we need now, without more toll roads.
Indexing Gas Tax Costs 30 Times Less Than Tolls
Compare what the US pays for a gas tax compared to the rest of the world (graph is Canadian cents per liter).
3 comments:
While I do not disagree with the idea of indexing fuel taxes, I disagree with your comparison. It does not show the whole picture.
The 15 cents per mile would be paid ONLY by the users of this facility, while the 0.5 cents per mile would be paid by all of us drivers in Texas.
So I ask myself: why should I be taxed more for a highway that I will never likely use? Shouldn't ONLY the users and thus beneficiaries of this facility pay for it?

Compare apples with apples (driving toll or free expressways)
And, these are roads intended to be expressways - if anyone really wants to go anywhere, they will be forced to pay the freeway toll tax.
As congestion gets worse on frontage roads with stop lights, (with NO congestion solution for higher toll tax profits) driving a frontage road will not be a reasonable option for anyone.
- 3:41 PM, April 04, 2007
Should you be taxed for highways that you will likely use? Gas taxes have not been raised in years and years.
Paying an increased gas tax puts revenue into a transportation system that is audited and tracked and publicly budgeted by the State, rather than shipping mostly-gouge toll profits off to Spain, or Governor Perry's buddies.
