Pep Talks and Positive Thinking
Wednesday, April 10, 2013
So yay another day, another blog. Sorry I'm rambling so much in this one guys! When I get flustered I tend to just carry on, kind of like in this video. Does anyone have tips on positive thinking or are there any pep talks you give yourself that you're willing to share with me? I'm interested to know your thoughts on this one. Anyway, thanks so much for checking this out and taking time to talk to me :)
Oh...here's the link to the positive bloggers group http://www.sparkpeople.com/mys
?gid=25555. I'm checking them out right now. I'm thinking of joining, maybe they'll have some assignments for me so I can work on my positive thinking skills.
Till next time!

First off, you're not a loser! Look how hard you're trying. Most people - I mean, really, nearly all people - do not do the things you are doing. They might do it for a month or so - like you mention in the video - but they do NOT keep on doing it for an extended period. So for that reason alone, you are a winner!
What you said about not wanting to die prematurely is exactly the way I feel about it. That's why I'm trying to be healthy!
I like to workout to techno, too. Keeps you moving!

Up until recently, I don't think I could have come up with one positive thing to say about myself if someone had asked me! Honestly, for the longest time I thought I was the only person out there who literally hated myself all the time. I started working with a mentor, and everything that she said to me was positive. She loved me - everything about me - and helped me to recognize the beauty in myself. It wasn't a miraculous, overnight change, but I very SLOWLY started to change the way I thought and talked to myself.
Surround yourself with positive, optimistic people. If you have to be around others who are negative, tell yourself that you won't let them take your power from you and drag you down.
Look in the mirror for a few minutes each day, and every time you start thinking something negative, or you start critiquing everything that's "wrong" with your appearance, take a deep breath and loudly say "SHHHHHHH" (out loud) to quiet these thoughts. This made the world of difference for me. The first time I tried this, I immediately started thinking things like, "This is stupid" or "Why am I doing this? There's no point, it won't change anything." But I stuck with it, and the first time that I did it and had a positive thought about myself was so rewarding and powerful. It brought me to tears!
You can change this, it just takes work, but it is worth it. YOU are beautiful and YOU are awesome!

That's cool that you have Spark Coach. I'd def. do it if money wasn't an issue. I chose Spark People because it was free though as an alternative to an expensive Weight Watchers membership so I have to keep Spark People free by not buying Spark Coach. HAHAHA.

My therapist told me last week, if you continue to be negative, your going on and on with a cycle of hate, if your mind is negative towards yourself then u wont lose and do what u need to do to loose. She said its a proven fact that when you train yourself you will eventually believe it. Might take some time but u will get there.
Every day, I post in the status update bar. some thing positive. A few days ago or some examples I use, I put I am beautiful - I AM WORTH IT, I am strong I am worth it, Im determined im worth it. I always end it with Im worth it because I am!
Im supposed to say it once in the morning and once at night. Ive been more of a once a day type of person. But it HAS helped. Ive noticed my spirit much higher, and I like that. Ive been sort of down the last few days because my back has been in a lot of pain, and who can be positive when they r in pain?!
God bless those that are!
But anywho- im gonna add u, id like to follow u on ur journey!

On my first trip to PDX, I fell in love with Bunk Sandwiches, so I told my companions for this trip that we had to go there. We didn't make it. Because we first ran into Lardo.
Lardo – Portland – A Best Sandwich Candidate24 Jul
LAX International Terminal — Impressively Redesigned with LA Flavor27 Mar
The big upgrade to LAX is the concourse at the international terminal. What's actually interesting is that they chose to highlight local LA restaurants, rather than just putting glossy new ubiquitous brands. Honestly, they did a great job, selecting real LA places that should appeal to people visiting, as well as locals passing through.

Top Round Roast Beef — A Better Phillippe's12 Mar
Top Round opened to fanfare last year as a cool "better version of Arby's." Even people who grew up on the east coast, where roast beef sandwiches like those at Top Round are common, said as much. But c'mon — talk about damning with faint praise.
These are really much more like the roast beef sandwiches at Phillippe's, except better. Simple. Quality ingredients. Tasty.
But I'm not from the east coast, so this doesn't really dredge up nostalgia. On its own merits, the sandwich is good, but not life-changing. This place is mostly notable for its retro style. So enjoy the pictures after the jump and take a quick nostalgia trip.
DTLA Cheese – Holy Cow! That's a Great Sandwich!8 Feb

Fruit Farm – a Juice and Sandwiches Place in Little Tokyo26 Oct
Another new place opens up in Little Tokyo, this time in the fortress of solitude — the Little Tokyo Galleria Center. The owners are doing their best to turn this ghost town mall around by bringing in a bowling alley, a Koreatown coffee shop, a high end dim sum place, etc. The newest opening is on the sadly half-vacant first floor, next to the froyo place, Boba on Top, and the Beard Papa.
Fruit Farm is a juice and sandwiches place — the kind of healthy, fresh place that is abundant in the Financial District, but not in Little Tokyo. So is it any good?

The Sandwich Smith – Is Little Tokyo Ready for a $15 Sandwich Lunch?6 Mar
Little Tokyo has been a neighborhood in mourning. Since the Spice Table stopped lunch sevice, the neighborhood has been bereft of a truly great sandwich. Mike's Deli came to try to fill the void with quantity, but the quality angle was still lacking.

The humble cliché. Bane of the writer's life, or so we're led to believe. My book: In Too Deep has a fair amount sprayed inside its pages. Hell, even the title's a cliché!
But seriously, I thought about it. My book is written from a first-person point of view and I don't think it would be authentic if there weren't clichés in there. If you actually listen to how we speak, we use them all the time. We're all living, breathing, walking, talking clichés.
I admit I used to hate it if one cropped up in my writing, but I've mellowed. If a cliché says what I want to say, in the best way possible, then I use it and sod the consequences.
I've probably shot myself in the foot for writing this post. But let's face it, at the end of the day, if we don't grab the bull by its horns and run with it, once in a while, then life just wouldn't be worth living.
Well, you know what they say: 'that's life …'

School bus drivers: Is trust enough?
The message should be framed not as "this monitoring device is here to make sure you don't break the rules" but as "this device is here to protect you as well as the students."
Expanding discipline policies to cover both transportation and campus life, providing crisis intervention training to staff and sharing relevant student information with the right personnel will help minimize student violence on the bus and in the classroom.

Spoiler warning: these reviews reveal plot twists.
Washington, 1971. Just as the owner of a major newspaper is attempting to float the parent company on the stock exchange, its editor wants to publish hugely controversial material…
Seen before? No.
Best performance: Tom Hanks (here playing legendary Washington Post executive editor Ben Bradlee) is very watchable as always. But it's difficult to look past Meryl Streep as Katharine Graham. Graham was the publisher of the Washington Post, an unusual position for a woman in the early 1970s; her father had built up the company's legacy and she'd inherited her job after the suicide of her husband. So in The Post she's a woman with a weight on her shoulders. The way Streep plays Graham's development from someone who nervously fumbles a board meeting to someone who takes brave and bold decisions is wonderful.
Best scene/moment/sequence: The movie is encroaching onto some sacred cinematic ground. In several ways, The Post could be considered a prequel to Alan J Pakula's masterful thriller All the President's Men (1976). It's set soon before the Watergate scandal dramatised in All the President's Men, features some of the same characters – Ben Bradlee is a big presence in both films – and the two newsroom sets are uncannily similar. The connection is made obvious in the final scene of The Post, which Rogue One–style leads directly into the opening of the earlier film. And as in All the President's Men, the sequences in The Post that feature journalists working on their stories are thrilling. Whether they can – whether they should – publish the expose is the central question of the film and, even if you know the real history, it never loses its jeopardy.
Review: A mid-range Spielberg film is still a thing to behold. It's doubtful that, in years to come, The Post will top any polls or be remembered as one of the director's best. But it's still an immaculate, impressive and incredibly engaging piece of filmmaking. Rushed into cinemas to capitalise on our current obsession with 'fake news', the movie concerns the Pentagon Papers. In 1967, US Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara commissioned a study of America's role in the Vietnam War. He intended it for academic posterity rather than political analysis but it contained some incendiary conclusions, not least that successive Presidents had continued the carnage even though they knew an American victory would never come. The Post tells the story of how the report was leaked and published. The movie ticks all the usual boxes for a film about journalists cracking a massive story, but it ticks them with such a rich, stylish flourish that you don't mind that things are often predictable and occasionally a bit schmaltzy. The well-cast ensemble is led by Hanks and Streep but contains numerous good performances. The attention to period detail is fantastic. And the script never assumes the audience needs hand-holding. Actually, it's not just the presence of Bradley Whitford and Sarah Paulson in secondary roles that makes this film remind you of Aaron Sorkin. His TV shows, such as The West Wing and The Newsroom, lived and breathed by scenes of clever and principled people arguing about important issues, and that's what The Post is all about too.

The Police have arrested six men, aged between 54 and 76, for their suspected involvement in illegal horse betting activities.
The Police have previously mounted several operations at the location. On 19 November 2017, officers from the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) conducted another operation at Block 65 Circuit Road, resulting in the arrest of the six men. During the operation, cash amounting to S$3,500/- and an array of documents including betting records were seized.
Preliminary investigations revealed that the six suspects are believed to be performing various roles including bookmakers, runners as well as punters, and are involved in illegal horse betting activities.
Three of the suspects, aged 58 to 66, will be charged in Court on 22 November 2017 for offences under the Betting Act as well as the Common Gaming Houses Act. Investigations against the remaining suspects are ongoing.
Under the Betting Act, any person who bets with a bookmaker shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $5,000, or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months, or both. Any person who is found to be involved in bookmaking shall be liable on conviction to a fine of not less than $20,000 and not more than $200,000, and shall also be punished with imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years.
Police take a serious view against all forms of illegal betting activities, especially those that display a blatant disregard for the social order of Singapore. Police will continue to take tough enforcement action against anyone involved in illegal betting activities, regardless of their roles, to face the full extent of the law. Members of the public are advised to steer clear of all forms of illegal gambling.

Switzerland has made it illegal to throw live lobsters into boiling water to kill them.
The practice of boiling lobsters alive is common in seafood restaurants around the world, and stems from the belief that the crustaceans can't feel pain.Parents, four kids and their pets found gassed to death in garage 'murder-suicide'
However, scientists are increasingly agreeing with animal rights advocates that crustaceans' nervous systems are sophisticated and complex enough for them to feel immense pain when boiled alive.
As part of a major overhaul of animal protection laws, Bern has now said that 'the practice of plunging live lobsters into boiling water, which is common in restaurants, is no longer permitted'.
From March 1 this year, the government order said, lobsters 'will now have to be stunned before they are put to death'.
According to Swiss public broadcaster RTS, the only acceptable methods of stunning the animals will be electric shock or the 'mechanical destruction' of teh lobster's brain.
The Swiss government also said that people will be forbidden from transporting live marine crustaceans, such as lobsters and crabs, on ice or in icy water.
Instead, they should 'always be held in their natural environment'.

Regarding Secrecy, Part 1: Bill Clinton vs. George W. Bush - What a Difference a Year Makes To the Consitution:
In the dying days of his second term, as the nation was lurching towards its nightmare election day in 2000, on November 4 of that horrid year, President Clinton vetoed a bill. It was HR 4392, the Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2001, and Clinton said that there was a single provision in the bill that he didn't like.
That was Section 303, which read, "Whoever, being an officer or employee of the United States, a former or retired officer or employee of the United States, any other person with authorized access to classified information, or any other person formerly with authorized access to classified information, knowingly and willfully discloses, or attempts to disclose, any classified information acquired as a result of such person's authorized access to classified information to a person (other than an officer or employee of the United States) who is not authorized access to such classified information, knowing that the person is not authorized access to such classified information, shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 3 years, or both."
By massively broadening the definition of felonious disclosure of classified information, Clinton said that Congress "may unnecessarily chill legitimate activities that are at the heart of a democracy." Paraphrasing Justice Brandeis, Clinton continued, "[W]e must always tread carefully when considering measures that may limit public discussion." And the real kick in the head, considering the vicious times in which we live: "[I]t is my obligation to protect not only our Government's vital information from improper disclosure, but also to protect the rights of citizens to receive the information necessary for democracy to work."
And so, because of "one badly flawed provision," Clinton vetoed the whole thing and sent it back to the House. Oh, sure, it pissed off House Republicans, especially, including Porter Goss, who said, "To veto this critical piece of legislation now is disruptive, and may send a dangerous message to those who would harm U.S. interests." But Clinton believed that "in a society built on freedom of expression and the consent of the governed...this criminal provision would, in my view, create an undue chilling effect." The bill had been opposed by CNN, the Washington Post, and the New York Times, among others.
Flash forward to December 2001. The Congress, at the height of its post-9/11 obeisance to all things Bush, passed HR 2883, the Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2002. Section 305 of the bill was the "Modification of Reporting Requirements for Significant Anticipated Intelligence Activities and Significant Intelligence Failures." It was an amendment to the National Security Act of 1947, section 502, which is about the Executive branch reporting to Congress on "intelligence activities other than covert actions."
What was the big change made in 2001? To ask for the report in writing: any report "shall be in writing, and shall contain the following:(1) A concise statement of any facts pertinent to such report. (2) An explanation of the significance of the intelligence activity or intelligence failure covered by such report." That's it. Congress wanted its report in writing. And it wanted to understand what it was being told.
After the Act was passed and signed by the President, George W. Bush issued a signing statement about part of the bill: "Regrettably, one provision of the Act falls short of the standards of comity and flexibility that should govern the relationship between the executive and legislative branches on sensitive intelligence matters and, in some circumstances, would fall short of constitutional standards." Which part? According to Bush, "Section 305 of the Act amends section 502 of the National Security Act of 1947," which he says "purports to require" that reports to Congress "always be in written form, with a concise statement of facts pertinent to the report and an explanation of the significance of the activity or failure."
Bush does not explain why this act of writing the report and explaining things is so offensive, but he asserts that the section "shall be construed for all purposes... in a manner consistent with the President's constitutional authority to withhold information the disclosure of which could impair foreign relations, the national security, the deliberative processes of the Executive, or the performance of the Executive's constitutional duties." Which, you know, is pretty much everything. The same goes for the Director of Central Intelligence. Of course, the statement does not say how such an interpretation of the section will be applied, but one can guess it's something like: "Fuck 'em."
There's pretty much all you need to know about how far we've tumbled as a nation when it comes to respect for the Constitution, when it comes to the handling of secrecy, and when it comes to the rights of citizens to be informed. Clinton could have signed the bill and taken terrible retribution on anyone who leaked anything in his last two months. He chose not to. Instead, on December 27, 2000, he signed a bill that had the offensive section removed. Said Clinton in his signing statement, "I thank the Congress for working with me to produce a bill that I can sign."
Bush could have vetoed the whole bill so that we'd have a debate over what exactly he wanted. He chose not to. One way, Clinton's way, is the path to an open, real democracy. And the other, Bush's way? Why, that's a path to...well, we're not allowed to speak of such things without sounding crazy.
By the way, that December 2000 signing statement did contain some language about how President Clinton interpreted a section of the Act. "Title VIII of the Act sets forth requirements governing the declassification and disclosure of Japanese Imperial Army records, as defined by the Act," Clinton wrote. However, he made clear: "I understand that title VIII does not apply to records undergoing declassification pursuant to the Nazi War Crimes Disclosure Act." It ain't exactly ignoring a law so he can pursue whatever policies he wants, now, is it?

Here are two islands. Both are British. Off each island are good quality tidal flows. One island, however, has particularly strong tidal flows, getting on for as strong as one of the world's strongest flows, in the Pentland Firth in Scotland.
Both islands are now looking to develop marine farms harnessing those flows to produce electricity for the National Grid. Both islands need to connect to the National Grid via a subsea interconnector. One island has an existing but underpowered interconnector: the other is at an advanced state of negotiation to build a powerful interconnector that links the island to France and the UK, and links its tidal stream array programme into the grid in the process.
Both islands have got really good schemes for tidal stream power, but one, perhaps because of the enormous potential of their offshore tidal race, is much larger than the other. In fact ten times as large, with the possibility of a further tenfold increase in capacity.
So far so good, eh? Well here it stops, because one island, because of its location and history, looks like it will be denied access to the Contract for Difference it will need to get its tidal flow scheme under way, even though there looks to be scope in future auctions for 'further from market' CfD allocations. The other will not, and I hope it succeeds shortly in gaining a supportive CfD allocation.
Oh all right, that's the end of the mystification. The two islands are the Isle of Wight, British through and through, and looking to develop a 30MW array 2.5km off the south of the island in a joint development between Perpetuus Energy and the Isle of Wight council. Good for them: it looks like it will work really well.
The other one is Alderney. Alderney Renewable energy are promoting the FAB Link, one of the interconnectors identified by the Government as promoting greater resilience for the UK system, and proceeding well through the process of gaining agreements with Ofgem, National Grid and with their French equivalents. The Link would be from a site neat Cherbourg to Alderney, and then to a landing point near Exeter. Feeding into this could be the product of the Alderney Race tidal array, initially comprising a consented 150 turbines about a mile off Alderney, and coming to about 300MW but with the prospect of an eventual 3GW deployment – which would be about the installed capacity of Hinkley C power station (if it gets built, that is). In fact, its initial deployment and future potential is in some ways similar to the much more trumpeted Swansea Bay tidal lagoon, which will have an initial installed capacity in the first lagoon of about the same amount, but will benefit from larger and cheaper subsequent installations. And on the basis of the way things are going, and especially if Hinkley C doesn't get built or is further delayed beyond 2025, we surely need both schemes to get going. Alderney, by the way, could deploy from about 2020, using pretty uncomplicated technology – proven technology turbines sunk on sturdy supports to the seabed.
So what's the problem? Well I mention the two islands because, as it happens the Isle of Wight is a county authority and really 'British' (and therefore gets to bid for a CfD) whereas Alderney, not far away, counts as British but not British, in that it is a 'crown dependency', and therefore doesn't get to bid for a CfD because that privilege is reserved for, well you know, proper British places. In fact, I understand that the Secretary of State has written to Alderney Energy telling them that there is no go at the moment on a possible CfD because of the not-really-British problem. The fact that the development could have a huge impact on the UK's electricity market and that Alderney WANT the power to go to Britain because they are, well, British as far as they are concerned is, I suppose, beside the point.
I know that DECC have thought for a few minutes about the issue, and indeed, when it appeared that some developments in Ireland might produce captured power for use in Britain (but based on wind blowing in Ireland) they actually wrote a consultative document on it (here), but nothing has transpired and the issue remains in limbo. So much so that there is clear danger that one of the single most potentially beneficial renewable energy projects there is for the UK based on one of the most potent and reliable sources of renewable energy which just so happens inconveniently to be sited off a crown dependency might not happen: because it is not possible to transport the power of the Alderney race to, say, three miles off the coast of the Isle of Wight.

Twelve Foot Muzzle Loading Gun Recalls Days of '49 (Apr, 1934)
Twelve Foot Muzzle Loading Gun Recalls Days of '49
WHEN they shot game in California in the hard days of '49, they really shot game, as is demonstrated hy a 12 foot, muzzle loading gun just added to the Pony Express Museum at Pasadena, California. The gun was acquired from a pioneer at Calaveras,
The gun weighs fifty pounds. Being a muzzle loader, it used powder and ball. A huge ramrod was required to stuff in the firing material and bullets. It is easy to understand that the weapon carried a terrific kick, especially if loaded with a little more than the required amount of powder. It was fired from a rest.

How Kristen Stewart, Michelle Williams, and a Broken Truck Came Together for the Remarkable "Certain Women"
Director Kelly Reichardt takes us inside her latest film, a gripping chamber piece that follows four women.
Certain Women is one of the quieter but more powerful films of the fall. Written and directed by Kelly Reichardt, it tells three tenuously linked stories about four women in present-day Montana. The first focuses on Laura Dern, playing a personal-injury lawyer whose stubborn, possibly violent client (Jared Harris) can't accept that he doesn't have a winnable case. The second features Michelle Williams—in her third film with Reichardt, following Wendy and Lucy (2008) and Meek's Cutoff (2010)—as a yuppie-ish woman building a vacation home and maneuvering to buy some valuable sandstone from an elderly man (Rene Auberjonois), who may or may not be compos mentis. The third (and, to my mind, most moving) story centers on a socially isolated Native American ranch hand, played by newcomer Lily Gladstone, who becomes fixated on a young lawyer (Kristen Stewart); whether that fixation is romantic is, again, not altogether clear.
If the complexity and ambiguity of the film's emotional transactions lend its ostensibly simple narratives a surprising, sometimes devastating depth, so too does Reichardt's deceptively casual direction. Certain Women might feel as if it were made in the offhanded vérité style common to many indie films, but the filmmaking is as precise in its way as a Golden Age Hollywood masterwork. Reichardt has a special fondness for long and wordless (or nearly wordless) takes that, to my mind, can only be appreciated on a big theater screen. She deals in a kind of intimate spectacle, if that makes sense. I'd watch her films in IMAX if I could.
Certain Women is based on short stories by Maile Meloy and opened on Friday, October 14. Given the contemporary Western setting, some of its most revealing moments take place in cars. Reichardt and I recently spoke about three of those scenes, her four stars, and about why filming with untrained animals and "shitty, old" trucks makes for great performances.
More … ….
,Vanity Fair: The way you sometimes abandon dialogue and just allow your camera to linger on performers' faces for much longer than a lot of directors would—the way you trust in the power of that—reminds me of silent film.
Kelly Reichardt: There might be no words, but I take issue with the idea of silent film. Because there is a sound design. So it's really about less dialogue, not less sound. I do think a lot about the moments between the words. Sometimes you do the scenes without the dialogue, just to see what's there—what's necessary—and then do the scenes with dialogue.
Tell me about shooting the scene where Laura Dern and Jared Harris are driving back from the consultation with the second lawyer, who also tells Harris's character that he has no case. Most of the ostensible "action" in the scene is about Harris's reactions—first his threats, then his breakdown. But I love the way the camera keeps returning to Dern's face as she's driving, then stays with her. You see her frustration with him, her empathy for him, and her fears and anxieties about her own problems, almost all at once.
It's funny, because how I had imagined the scene would go [was very different]. That's always the surprise in filmmaking: that you live with this idea of how something sounds in your head, and then real people come and do their thing and have their dynamic. I had imagined the dynamic in that scene kind of being the opposite of what it turned out being. It's hard even to think about now, because I'm so used to the scene as it exists, but I had imagined Jared being more hostile and Laura being more annoyed at him. So it just took a different turn. The trick in the moment is to not be hung up on what you imagined and to be able to roll with what the new thing is, if it's moving. Changing gears like that can be difficult. You plan everything and then there's what's going to happen—the movie you end up making.
I was also struck by the scene with Michelle Williams where she and her family are driving home after the sad, complicated scene with Rene Auberjonois's character. They're all in the car. The daughter has her earbuds in. Williams and James Le Gros, the husband, seem annoyed with each other. He's driving and she's looking out the window, with the Montana landscape going by, reflected in the glass. She sees something outside the car. We don't know what it is. But she stares at it, almost looking at the camera itself. It's an odd but powerful moment. To me, it reinforced her apartness but also her connection to something outside her family.
Michelle really just had an idea of this character, and she was so brave in not being at all concerned about the likability of the character, which I really appreciated. And again there's really a dynamic that occurs [among the actors]. And the way the rig was set up, Michelle really was trapped in the car. She could not just step out for a second. I think that that helped play with her feeling trapped. It's funny how the production can play into the feeling of what's happening in a scene. Michelle also knew she could just sort of take her time with the shot. We got on a long stretch of road, so the scene could play itself out. There was time for her to take in what had just happened with Albert [Auberjonois's character]. There's the moment where she and James are on each other's side as husband and wife, when they're sort of angling for what they want from Albert, and then there's the division of the family—how you can be trapped in a car, each in your own space.
That moment where she looks off—was that scripted, or something you directed in the moment?
That was just Michelle. The actors just know what the situation is, and they know what the dialogue is, and it's theirs to just play out. It's something that's unfolding for everyone. It's not like it's some exact science. And then you get in the editing room, and there are more ways to go. I'm still fascinated by how time plays. Like how much a moment of performance can change depending on how much time is on either side of a response or reaction, if it has time to go down and go away. Just the building of tension like that. That's true of every shot. That's what's fascinating about editing.
That leads me to the scene with Lily Gladstone, where you stay on that medium shot of her driving in her truck for two and a half minutes—I timed it!—following the scene in the parking lot where Kristen Stewart's character has kind of blown her off. And her face as she drives, the way we see her both feeling and repressing her pain, and it just keeps going . . .
That shot went on even longer than that! I was on the floor of the cab, yelling at Lily not to cry. "Don't cry! Don't cry!" We were not on a car rig. She was driving this truck that stalled out all the time, and she had to do things to keep it running.
Was that by design? Some kind of method trick you played on her?
No, it was just an old, shitty truck. But it worked in the same way that having animals in a film does. Like Lily feeding the horses in this film. Or the dog in Wendy and Lucy, or the oxen in Meek's Cutoff. I think the mechanics of animals and cars really does force actors to respond to what's around them. It makes acting go away. In this scene Lily was driving through real traffic. There were red lights, she had to make turns, and this heavy thing had just happened [to her character]. And for Lily [in real life] the movie was a big deal, and doing the final scene with Kristen was a big deal to her. She was going to go home the next day to Missoula, and the experience was going to be over for her. I mean, Lily is Lily. I have no responsibility over the magic of Lily.
You put a camera a foot away from her face and she doesn't even seem to notice it. She's just so game. She loved the whole thing. She was in a great mood every day. It would be negative-six degrees, we'd be crying, and she'd be, "What do we do now?"
The scene between her and Kristen Stewart in the parking lot is another great example of a lot going on between two actors with only minimal dialogue. Kristen's character doesn't mean to be mean, I don't think, but the way she's befuddled by Lily's character, the way she can't seem to help brushing her off, is devastating—both for the audience and for Lily's character.
It turns out that Livingston [the town in Montana where much of the film was shot] is the windiest city in America. When we did that scene in the parking lot, it was insanely windy. Kristen could not keep her dress from blowing up over her head. And I knew it was going to be hard for sound. But wind is great! I said, "Let's go for it. We can make the sound work, and the wind will add something to the scene." They started doing the scene, and Kristen just turned to me, and said, "Lily is really good today." And I think they each took each other to [a different level]. Kristen, in life, her leg shakes. She's a fast talker. To see how a scene starts and her metabolism suddenly seems different—I don't know how you perform that. The question [in pre-production] was always, "Is Kristen too big for this role? And will that be distracting?" And I was blown away by her. I just thought she was so generous to Lily [in that scene]. She had no problem being the quiet receiver of something, and making herself smaller in a way. She gives really a lot in that moment in the smallest away. She's so still. You'd worry whether someone has that in them, especially someone who's been in a lot of big productions. That scene, while we were shooting it, I was like, this is beautiful. Even with all the craziness of the wind. We were blocking them on every side—nothing could even stand up, it was so windy. But everybody felt [that moment]. I looked at the sound guy. He was like, Whoa. It was just very beautiful while it was happening.

This week, in order to attain, maintain or regain my sense of wellness…
I will reach out to another person to talk about my day and what's on my plate every day. I will also give the other person the chance to talk to me about their day and what is on their plate at the same time. This way things will not build up for me and I will get ongoing support and access to other perspectives. If I am upset, I might get comfort and understanding.
This may take some planning, especially for those of us who are still building a social support network. On days when I do not know who to ring, visit or chat to at the water cooler, I will call Youthline, Warmline or Lifeline and utilise a pair of expert ears.
It helps to make a list of people you can call. And to start off with there's
- Youthline – Ph: 0800 37 66 33 | Free text: 234 | email: email@example.com
- Warmline – Ph: 0508 WARMLINE or 0508 927 654
- Lifeline – Ph: 0800 LIFE LINE or 0800 543 345
- The Phobic Trust: 24-Hour Anxiety Help-Line; 0800 1 4 ANXIETY
- A parent; A sibling or cousin; A friend; Another friend; A colleague
Once I am used to reaching out to someone regularly, I will add "Call Someone To Talk About It" to my Personal Coping Kete as something to do during times of stress.

Enjoyed Lisa Hix feature on Native American fashion.
This is a good example of a 1950's or 60's tourist item. The coin purse is 6"x3.5" and lined in suede. It was made here in the US. I'm not sure where it was originally from but I would guess gas stations along Rt. 66, 10 or 40.

One of the strategies adopted by people on the soft Right to oppose their destruction is to pick out the worst of all the immigrant groups and then throw everything they have at them, indeed, the other groups must be recruited into the fight. Allies can be sought, agreements reached and a plan of mutual assistance against the common enemy put into practice. The common enemy, of course, is Islam, the ''allies'' in this fight for our ''Judeo-Christian Values'' are supposedly Jews, Sikhs and Hindus, maybe also blacks but they are prone to going full Jihad while they are in jail, which is often. What white natives get out of this alliance is the precious ability to criticize a non white hostile group without being called ''racist'' the minority groups get to stand against the Islamic juggernaut and prove themselves as decent Brits who shouldn't be mistaken for Muslims. This is the Civic Nationalist road to salvation.
In any sane society the natives could question the morality of allowing themselves to become just another group among many in their own land, but this, apparently, is not allowed so we all must play along with the multiculti chess game.
The next move is to seek out an opponent's weakness and exploit it, as always this should be done by trying to not appear racist for example:
DO NOT= Explain that mass immigration from the Third World is genocidal and will destroy your people.
DO= Complain about headscarves and Burkas for no other reason than to display your own impotence on the slight chance the invaders will just bugger off.
Ritually slaughtered meat is an example of a battle the soft Right can't lose, they can dance around telling everyone its all about animal welfare and they can make claims that Halal funds terrorism. Nobody should be able to call them racists, it's a winner! The problem of course is that the supposed allies in this great battle for our Judeo Christian values, the Jews, also use ritually slaughtered meat, indeed, their process is even more barbaric than the Muslim method.
Given that Civic Nationalists such as UKIP are willing to ''tolerate'' the obliteration of their genetic code and see the land of their forefathers handed over to racial aliens it isn't really asking much of the Jews to pay a few extra shekels for their meat. Unfortunately for UKIP, it is, UKIP's agriculture minister has said they ''have lost the Jewish vote for sure'' and then throwing the ''it's all about animal rights'' line down the toilet grovelled before the Jews saying"This isn't aimed at you – it's aimed elsewhere – it's aimed at others. You've been caught in the crossfire; collateral damage. You know what I mean."
Thereby giving an open goal to the Left and the Muslims who can spot an Anti Islam ruse a thousand sand dunes away.
With the European Jewish Congress making moves to drastically increase the already ample amount of Hate Laws and xenophobia laws across the continent this game cannot play out for much longer because even UKIP's mild form of identitarianism will be banned or restricted further, and it is their supposed allies who are shutting them down. Before long it will be illegal to criticize Muslims, so what then?
The dissident Right can stop playing these silly games which see them tied up in knots and hopping and skipping across the breaking ice of acceptable discourse, until they sink. Or they can challenge Jewish power and influence, they can question just what the hell these people think they are doing in our country.

Remove Redirecting.zone (Free Instructions) - Removal Guide
Redirecting.zone is a suspicious advertising service which spams users with continuous ads
Redirecting.zone is a shady URL which interrupts users' browsing sessions by displaying persistent advertisements. It can drop its ads on all well known browsers, such as Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, etc. If you happen to suffer from continuous redirects to Redirecting.zone, it is highly likely that your computer is infected with adware[1] program.
Security experts[2] note that adware infiltrates users' machines with the help of bundling – a common distribution tactic used by developers of potentially unwanted programs. Users often fail to recognize PUPs because they often rush thru the whole installation of free software. Hence, redirecting.zone virus can enter your computer without much effort.
Ad-supported software like this might seem like an innocent marketing campaign. Generally, it is not dangerous on its own. However, it can open backdoors of the system and let potentially dangerous menaces infiltrate your computer. Besides, such apps as redirecting.zone virus can greatly decrease users' browsing experience as they show their ads, pop-ups, deals, banners, and similar offers non-stop.
Such behavior is typical to adware and is used to make users buy various good while visiting sponsored websites. That's how its developers generate monetary benefit in the process. Fortunately, redirecting.zone removal can be performed with only one click, you just need to install Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego on your computer.
Adware might cause numerous redirects to questionable websites.
Ads generated by redirecting.zone are identical to ones displayed by Click.redirecting.zone: users might find information about amazing prizes, lotteries, discounts and similar stuff that has always been tempting Internet users. In addition, some of the text can be turned into hyperlinks and similar ads.
However, probably the most alarming feature of Redirecting.zone virus is its redirecting tendencies. You might end up on phishing, malware-ridden, fake updates and similar websites. Adware creators have no responsibility for the content you might be exposed to. Hence, these domains can harm your computer and destroy system files (for example, ransomware[3] can encrypt your data and make it completely unusable).
Adware continuously runs background processes to communicate with the external servers to generate ads and redirects. Therefore, it might slow down your machine considerably and make browsing sessions a total nightmare. We can assure you that eliminating PUPs will make your browsing experience effortless and meaningful again. To stop this activity, you should remove Redirecting.zone from your machine without wasting your time.
Distribution methods of unwanted programs
As we already mentioned above, bundling is the most common distribution method for adware and other PUPs. Developers of such software are extremely aware that a considerable percentage of users are not that familiar with computers and software. Therefore, they try to conceal additional components by hiding them in Advanced settings – the mode which is rarely picked by those less experienced.
Thus, you should be extraordinarily cautious when installing free software from the internet. First of all, you should check the source you are downloading it from. Make sure it is legitimate, as some third-party websites might disguise malicious files in their installers.
Once you pick Advanced installation mode, read all the instructions extensively and make sure that all the pre-ticked check marks are disabled. Those usually offer various crapware, spyware, and adware, which can create havoc on your PC if not dealt with in time.
Eliminate Redirecting.zone and enjoy carefree browsing sessions
Some users might think that they are in deep trouble since their machine is infected with something they have never encountered before. However, do not worry, we are here to help you.

Continuous Health Insurance Coverage Incentive
Obamacare mandated that we all have health insurance or else we would face a penalty, that increased each year, when we filed our federal income taxes. This particular part of the ACA was very unpopular amongst Americans who thought that the government should not force them to do anything in relation to their medical care.
Although the new American Health Care Act (Trumpcare) keeps in tact a lot of popular pieces from Obamacare such as the pre-existing conditions and dependents can stay on their parents' health insurance plan until they are 26, the GOP wouldn't dream of keeping anything in the new law that looked like the individual mandate, but they still needed a way to compel Americans to get health insurance. Unfortunately, health insurance only works if there are as many healthy people paying into the pool as there are sick people taking money out to pay for medical bills. The GOP needed to be creative in order to find a way to compel healthy people to choose to get health insurance, even when it wasn't technically required.
That creative way was the "Continuous Health Insurance Coverage Incentive".
This requirement for continuous coverage ensures that anyone who goes without "credible coverage" for at least 63 continuous days will have to pay 30% more per month for their health insurance policy.
A couple questions stick out about this Continuous Coverage requirement:
- What kind of coverage is required?
- How long will I have to pay the increased amount?
- How does this affect Special Enrollment Periods?
- When does the continuous coverage requirement kick in?
- Who gets the money from the increased premium amount?
- What happens if I get a health insurance plan from my employer after being uninsured?
So first, what kind of coverage is required? The law just says that "creditable coverage" is required and it references the Public Health Service Act, Title XXVII, Section 2704(c), which states that creditable coverage could be: a group health plan, an individual and family health insurance plan, Medicare, coverage under the Indian Health Services or some other tribal organization, a state health benefits risk pool, Medicaid, or TRICARE to name a few.
Under the AHCA, any insurance policy under Trumpcare must also contain some very specific parts, such as it cannot deny a claim or coverage due to pre-existing conditions, but states have the option to allow insurance carriers to charge more to people with pre-existing conditions, which essentially places them into a separate high-risk pool, it must include coverage for preventative care and the essential health benefits, however states may also choose not to require carriers to offer this as a way to bring down costs, there's no annual or lifetime caps on coverage, and dependents can be covered on their parent's plan until age 26.
How long will I have to pay the increased amount? Under Obamacare, Americans only paid a penalty for the number of months in a calendar year that they were uninsured, presuming they were uninsured for longer than 60 consecutive days in a year. Under Trumpcare, however, the carrier is permitted to upcharge you 30% each month for your premium for 12 months following your plan start date. After your insurance renewal anniversary passes, your payment will adjust to the normal rate.
When does the continuous coverage requirement kick in? Under the proposed healthcare bill, you would be required to prove that you had continuous coverage during the 2018 Special Enrollment Period, which would start immediately after the 2018 Open Enrollment Period ends. In past years, open enrollment periods ran from November 1st to January 31st of the following year. Earlier in 2017, HHS proposed shortening the open enrollment period so that it would now only last from November 1, 2017 to December 15, 2017. This proposed change approved and finalized on April 18, 2017 and was put into effect, which means that all Americans would be required to prove that they had creditable coverage by December 16, 2017 or else they could be charged 30% more on their monthly premiums, presuming their lapse in coverage lasted a full, continuous 63 days.
To be more clear, if someone was uninsured from December 16, 2017 to February 17, 2018, they would be charged more for health insurance when they did enroll. After February 17, 2018, everyone must have insurance or else they will pay more on their health insurance and a person is only permitted to be uninsured for a maximum of 62 continuous days in a year.
Who gets the money from the surcharge fee? This money would go straight to the carrier. This is unlike Obamacare, where the penalty money went to the government's Obamacare pool and was used to pay for pieces of the law.
What happens if I get a health insurance plan from my employer after being uninsured? Under the bill, as it is proposed, an employer could be subjected to the increased premium amount for your insurance coverage if you were uninsured for 63 consecutive days before your group plan kicked in. This is a very controversial piece of the law because it disadvantages employers and could also be used to qualify or disqualify people for employment.
Trumpcare will change as it makes its way through the House and Senate and ultimately, what is signed into law may not look exactly like this, but it's still important to understand what is on the table.

Last night my Mister spent some time with his friends watching baseball, so I plunked myself down and recorded my first vlog in about a month. Topics include: I sleep-shopped (it's like sleepwalking, but with internet shopping) and ended up buying a semi-embarassing item off the Amazon app for iPhone, and more "Summer of 7" talk, for my YouTube crowd because they only ever hear what I put on my YouTube channel.

Obesity Treatment Together with My Canadian Pharmacy
Obesity and Overweight increasing worldwide
Obesity becomes the most malicious enemy of mankind around the world. Lately this problem grew, but generally concerns rich and people with prosperity, above an average. Obesity cause significant increase in body weight in the absence of other diseases. The exception is made by small percent of the cases caused by hormonal violations. Usually inhabitants call obesity excess weight, but for experts distinction exist. It is possible to speak about excess weight at the person if the mass of his body exceeds medical norm from ten to nineteen per cent. When body weight exceeds norm for twenty and more percent, we may speak already about obesity. The normal weight of the person is calculated according to special tables and depends on sex, age, height and the constitution of the person.

It was April 14th, and Ron Ramies didn't get a call from the IRS, he got a call from the local Dodge dealership. "Dude, they just dropped off your Power Wagon!" Ron had ordered the truck, but after a month of waiting, was told it would not be delivered due to a shortage of the popular factory-built 4x4. During that month, Ron had placed an order for a 3/4-ton diesel-powered Ram that had not yet arrived. A check of the VIN number confirmed the Power Wagon was "Ron's truck," so he plunked down the cash and took the keys. So what about the diesel? He bought that truck, too.
The Diesel Donor. After a few weeks of driving both, the Power Wagon became the favorite, but ironically, it lacked the power he needed. Ron sold the diesel Ram to a buddy and started shopping for a Cummins to swap into the Power Wagon. He lucked out and found an engine and transmission from a Ram with just three miles on the odometer. It had been totaled when it fell off a delivery truck and was ripe for the picking.
The Cummins Swap. The employees at Ron's auto shop in Portola Valley, California, thought he was crazy when the Hemi wiring started flying after work one Friday night in preparation for a weekend marathon of engine swapping. The electrical system proved to be the only real hurdle and that was just because the harness used to run the differential locks and the sway bar disconnect (an exclusive Power Wagon feature) was not designed to work with the Cummins. Using a DRB3 Chrysler scanner tool he was able to work out the electrical bugs. The antilock brakes, lockers, transfer case, transmission, and all accessories are working, and the Power Wagon is not throwing codes or flashing the idiot lights. A stock diesel cooling fan and clutch, radiator, intercooler, brake master cylinder, and exhaust system were needed to complete the installation that used the original Cummins motor mounts.
With the 5.9L working happily under the hood, a Dr. Performance Stage II Predator module was installed to raise the engine output by 85 hp and 165 lb-ft of torque. Since the truck spends a lot of time on steep dirt roads during hunting trips, a Jacobs Exhaust Brake was installed. Now the extra-heavy Power Wagon can be driven on backwoods trails all day with almost no use of the wheel brakes. A Prodigy brake controller was installed to regulate trailer brakes when Ron is transporting cars on a trailer for his auto shop.
The Cummins 5.9L swap is clean and looks like a factory installation, but it wasn't easy. A stock Dodge intercooler had to be added along with a fan and clutch, radiator, brake boo. A Dr. Performance Predator Stage II power module helps wake up the transplanted Cummins engine. Dodge provides massive 13.9-inch disc brakes for all Rams, but an exhaust brake was added to help stop this heavy rig. The 17x8-inch polished forged aluminum wheels are stock and so are the matte-finish fender flares.
Off-Road UpgradesThe Dodge Power Wagon is the most capable stock 4x4 available. It comes with a suspension lift, locking front and rear differentials with 4.56 gears, an electronic sway bar disconnect to improve wheel articulation, a built-in 12,000-pound winch, 33-inch tires, and a full set of skidplates. Sounds awesome, but that was not enough for Ron.
After consulting with Kent Kroeker, the owner of KORE suspension, a Race Series kit designed for a diesel Ram was installed (instead of the gasoline Power Wagon kit KORE also sells). The soft factory rear leaf springs were the only part of the stock suspension that were retained. KORE-Fox remote-reservoir shocks were installed at each corner, and progressive rate coilover springs with billet aluminum towers can now be found up front hiding behind 37x12.5-inch BFGoodrich tires.
The Fab Fours front winch bumper is built specifically for a Ram packing a giant Warn 16.5. One-inch D-ring recovery points provide options for the attachment of tow straps and provi. A 12,000-pound winch is standard equipment on this truck, but Ron upgraded to a Warn 16.5ti. It is a favorite with off-roaders and is rated at 16,500-pounds, so it has the strength to extract something as big as a Power Wagon weighted down with a Cummins.
12,000-pound winch is standard equipment on this truck, but Ron upgraded to a Warn 16.5t Hefty Fab Fours bumpers provide serious protection in the front and rear of the truck. The back bumper includes built-in steps and recovery rings and also retains the factory trailer hitch and wiring. The front bumper is designed to match the '05 Ram headlamp contours and has room to house a Warn 16.5ti winch that provides more than two tons of extra pulling power over the factory Power Wagon winch.
The Verdict"Happy" can't describe how content Ron is with his diesel rig. He was originally shopping for a '53 Power Wagon when he learned about this modern version of the truck. Unfortunately, the gasoline Hemi engine was not up to snuff. It didn't have the torque necessary to tow his work trailer loaded with cars, and it was only getting 9 mpg of that nasty gasoline stuff.
Now that the Power Wagon is packing a 24-valve Cummins with about 775 lb-ft of torque, Ron has no trouble pulling grades, and he's getting an impressive 18 mpg in the city and 21 mpg on the highways. Ron is constantly being asked about his truck and will often find people inspecting the badges in parking lots. Just the other day, a gaping spectator commented, "I didn't know you could get a Power Wagon with a Cummins." Ron smiled and answered, "you can't."
Vehicle: '05 Dodge Ram 2500 Power Wagon 4x4
Owner: Ron Ramies
Engine: '05 Cummins 5.9L 24-valve
Power module:Dr. Performance Predator Stage II
Transmission: 48RE
Transfer case: NV271
Low-range ratio: 2.72:1
Axle ratios: 4.56:1
Front suspension: KORE-Fox shocks and KORE coil springs
Rear suspension: KORE-Fox shocks and stock leaf springs
Brake controller: Prodigy
Wheels: 17-inch Dodge forged aluminum
Tires: 37x12.5-inch BF Goodrich All-Terrain KO
The powdercoated rear bumper is also made by Fab Fours. It includes two side steps, more D-ring recovery points. The factory remote sway bar disconnect is one feature the Power Wagon does not share with other passenger trucks. The rear suspension also uses the KORE-Fox shocks with remote reservoirs, but the stock leaf springs were retained. Mopar retracting electric steps were added to provide easy entry and exit. The Power Wagon comes standard with racy white face gauges. The Power Wagon comes standard with electronic locking front and rear differentials and a sway bar that can be disconnected from the driver's seat. The Jake Brake control is mounted on the transmission shift lever for easy access. Ron says it comes in very handy when he is hunting and driving on steep off-road trails. He was hard pressed to think of any times he used the wheel brakes during his last hunting expedition. The KORE progressive-rate coilover springs are specifically designed for the weight of a diesel truck. The coilovers are topped by KORE's signature billet 6061 aluminum shock mounts.

The South Latin School Closes for War
Yesterday I quoted Harrison Gray Otis on his first day at the South Latin School in Boston. Today I quote his memory of his last day under Master John Lovell, which was the memorable morning of 19 Apr 1775.
In the morning about seven, Percy's brigade [i.e., the British reinforcement column] was drawn up extending from Scollay's building [underneath the J.F.K. Federal Building] thro' Tremont Street nearly to the bottom of the Mall [on the Common], preparing to take up their march for Lexington."Deponite libros"—"Put down the books"—was the way the Latin School masters traditionally ended the school day.
A corporal came up to me as I was going to school, and turned me off to pass down Court St. which I did, and came up School St. to the School-house. It may well be imagined that great agitation prevailed, the British line being drawn up only a few yards from the School-house door.
As I entered School I heard the announcement of "deponite libros" and ran home for fear of the regulars.
Here ended my connection with Mr. Lovell's administration of the School. Soon afterwards I left town and did not return until after the evacuation by the British in March, 1776.
By that evening, Boston was under siege by the provincial militia. On 24 April, Harry Otis's classmate Joshua Green, Jr., wrote in his diary: "Bro't my books home from Latin School"—by then it was clear that school would be closed for a while. (Joshua's diary was published by a descendant in Facts Relating to the History of Groton, Massachusetts, volume 2, of all places.)
Two weeks later, the Greens left Boston to stay with relatives in Westfield. At the same time, the Otis family went to Barnstable, where Harry's grandfather had a large estate. Most other wealthy families who adhered to the Patriot cause also departed, leaving the Loyalists.
Among those Loyalists were Master Lovell and most of his relations. But his son and assistant, James, was a Patriot. With his wife pregnant and himself suffering from diarrhea, he felt he couldn't leave. Instead, he arranged for some of their older children to go out, and tried to make himself useful to the provincials. In August, Nathaniel Appleton quoted James Lovell as saying that a return to teaching would be "spending his time idlely schooling the children of a pack of Villains."
But by that point James Lovell no longer had much choice about where he would spend his time. In late June, after the Battle of Bunker Hill, the military authorities had put him in jail on suspicion of spying for the rebels. Chroniclers say that in March 1776 the Lovell family sailed from Boston to Halifax on one ship, Master John as a passenger and James as a prisoner. The Latin School on School Street reopened later that year without them.

Baby blessing
The Woodbury Pregnancy Options Center held a blessing ceremony Jan. 24 for its new ultrasound machine, donated by members of the Minnesota Knights of Columbus. The Ultrasound machine was purchased with matching funds from the Knights of Columbus Culture of Life Fund. The machine was blessed and dedicated by Father Shane Campbell, associate pastor of St. Ambrose of Woodbury and one of more than 44,000 members in the Minnesota KCs.
The KCs reported that up to 90 percent of women considering an abortion choose to have their baby after seeing an ultrasound image. The Knights started the Ultrasound Initiative program in 2010. Matching funds are raised at a local level to supply the machines to qualified centers at no charge.
Plans are in the works to soon donate machines in St. Paul and Stillwater, with more to follow throughout the state.
If you are interested in helping the Knights of Columbus with this or any other project, call (320) 587-0747 or visit http://www.mnknights.org.
Religious educated
Women entering religious orders today are highly educated and active in parish ministries, according to a new national survey.
The results of "The Profession Class of 2010: Survey of Women Religious Professing Perpetual Vows" were released in advance of World Day for Consecrated Life Feb. 2.
It was conducted by the Georgetown University-based Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate and commissioned by the U.S. bishops' Secretariat of Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations.
Major superiors of women religious who participated in the survey reported a total of 79 women who professed perpetual vows in 2010. Of that number, 68 responded by Dec. 15, representing 52 religious congregations, provinces or monasteries, according to a news release from the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.
Eighty-four percent of the major superiors who responded to the survey reported they had no one professing perpetual vows last year. Read the complete story on the study HERE.
'The Rite' is No. 1
The movie "The Rite," a fictionalized version of the exorcism training of Father Gary Thomas of the Diocese of San Jose, Calif., was number one at the box office last weekend, making over $15 million.
John Mulderig from Catholic News Service gave the movie — which is based on journalist Matt Baglio's 2009 book, "The Rite: The Making of a Modern Exorcist," — a good review, saying, "though shaky on a few details, director Mikael Hafstrom's conversion tale resoundingly affirms faith and the value of priestly ministry." The review (click HERE to read) has been a popular story on TheCatholicSpirit.com.

World Breast Feeding Week
I am proud to say that I was able to breast feed my baby. I had six babies and it did not work out for all of them but for a few I was able to do just that. The bonding experience was like no other the reasons I could not breast feed varried from my milk not coming in right to the baby being sick at birth or me being very ill. I still stand firm on the idea that breast feeding is best for the baby.
I am thankful to work for a business that believes this as well. They also believe that it is the mothers choice to do so. If the mother does choose to do so and work they have provided a place for mothers to feed their babies
As co-workers we have supported and understood that they may need extra time. Many of us have been mothers for a bit of time and are there to help if needed. If you find yourself in such a place I hope that you can do this as well

The idea of boutique-ing programs or projects can fly in the face of what seems like big success. We often think of success as being larger, more people, more. Boutique-ing isn't so much about numbers as it is about creating something that is memorable to individuals–no matter how many (2 or 2000).
One key thing to remember when boutique-ing a program is get to know your participants as much as possible before the start date. What are their needs, expectations and reasons for putting your event or program on their calendars? How can you find more about them without being prying or obnoxious? What questions can you ask–not simply to ask questions, but to help make a connection with the person and and happening?
Be gentle, kind and real when asking questions of your potential participants. Encouraging interest can make room for humor, creating a helpful bond between all participants and those behind or in front of the scenes.
How can we make this happening more memorable, easier, more boutique-ed?
