Leptodrene is another weight loss product being marketed as superfood. Superfoods are basically foods that are important to health and fitness. This concept was concocted by Dr. Nicholas Perricone and immediately became popular and was even featured in the Oprah Winfrey Show. Initially, superfoods were basically anti-aging foods but this concept was adopted by the manufacturer of Leptodrene. Leptodrene contains 5 active ingredients, each with its unique health benefits. Leptodrene has an official website where one can find dozens of testimonials attesting to the success of the product. However, aside from these testimonials, relevant information regarding Leptodrene’s ingredients and how each one works cannot be found on its website.
Leptodrene – Product Description
Leptodrene mostly consists of extracts of garlic, acai, barley, cayenne, kefir, wheatgrass, soybeans, flaxseed, alfalfa and buckwheat, which are considered as superfoods. These supergfoods are rich in anti-oxidants, essential fatty acids and fiber. However, despite Superfoods many health benefits, a clinical study is yet to prove that it can also cause considerable weight loss. Leptodrene also promises not only to make you lose weight but also lower your cholesterol level, blood pressure, boosts your immunity against certain types of cancer, prevents the onslaught of heart diseases and improves your digestive health. Leptodrene also claims to be effective in wrinkle treatment and the removal of acne. Aside from the superfoods, Leptodrene is also made of DMAE, Idebenone, green tea, Alpha Lipoic Acid and Salmon Oil Powder. These ingredients contribute to weight loss either by enhancing the thermogenic process in the body and speeding up metabolism, fight against different free radicals and increase your energy levels. Surpisingly, Leptodrene also has Omega-3, which has many amazing properties that are good for the body.
One of the many reasons why you should consume Leptodrene is because it contains superfoods which are known to improve the over-all well-being of the body. Leptodrene is also a relatively cheap weight loss product with a 2 month supply costing only $30. There are also many positive independent reviews of Leptodrene and its manufacturers are so confident on Leptodrene that it offers a money back guarantee if you are dissatisfied with Leptodrene.
Leptodrene – Drawbacks
Despite the rave about Leptodrene’s efficient weight loss capabilities, the Food and Drug Administration is yet to evaluate the effectiveness of Leptodrene through substantial clinical tests. Another drawback of Leptodrene is that it can only be purchased online making it difficult to obtain for those who do not access to the internet. Lastly, you cannot find the full list of Leptodrene’s ingredients over the internet.
Leptodrene – The Bottom Line
Leptodrene is an amazing weight loss product that does more than just help you lose weight. It is an all-around that can also improve your health and combat certain disease. Others call Leptodrene as a miracle pill, although health experts claim that there is no such miracle pill and that exercise and a good diet is still essential to one’s weight loss objective. Despite its affordability, Leptodrene is difficult to obtaining than most weight loss products.
Below you'll find some of the most effective weight loss supplements on the market today, in our opinion.

Krista and Troy Bastin, back right and center, shortly before opening Stonekry, a new resale book shop in Anderson Township. Their children, Caleb, front left, Emily and Shaylin, as well as volunteer Ross Furtwengler, back left, helped sort books and stock shelves.
In a little more than two years Stonekry Resale Books did a world of good for the community.
The Anderson Township bookstore, 8523 Beechmont Ave., is closing its doors Saturday, Jan. 18.
"It's sad we won't have the one-on-one with the families who would come in ? because it did become that neighborhood gathering place," said Krista Bastin, who started the store in 2011 with her then-husband, Troy. ...

The gorgeous yet disremembered music of the late '80s is as much of a leitmotif here as the title itself. Possibly a nod to the double "L" in each of the Go-Betweens' album titles before 16 Lovers Lane broke the string, Universe and Villa affords
a rich introduction to Stephen Becker and his band Le Concorde.
While the band's self-titled 2004 EP had reviewers, myself included, pulling
out records and references that were as fun to see in print again Prefab
Sprout, the Lilac Time, Aztec Camera and Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark as
they were a compliment to Becker's influences, the full-length not only affirms
but somewhat broadens the above list. Sure, starry-eyed averments such as "I
Will Go to My Grave Wanting You to Love Me" wouldn't be out of place in any of
Paddy McAloon's Prefab songbooks (or Eric Matthews' lush chamber-pop for that
matter). But what about the soaring near-end of "Controlling," which would be
like Ian Hunter's "You Nearly Did Me In" if not for Becker's glitter-rock falsetto
and guarded synth?
The emotional ballast of Becker's songwriting and, likewise, musical arrangements
appears in a fuller context as well. He allows that while much of the record
is influenced by the end of a marriage, it isn't a static meditation. Instead Universe
and Villa displays not only the disquieting efforts of examination but the
hope of finding love again. A personal undertaking to be sure, but instead of
being some overtly self-aware exercise, the songs encircle the listener with
a shared awareness, like remaining alive to the moment and holding close to its
possibilities. It is a province rarely explored in contemporary pop music, at
least to the degree that Becker does here, as quietly as he does it.
You only need to look at Nick Heyward's breaking solo turn North of a Miracle for an ideal example of understated introspection in the softest of voices. "Whistle Down the Wind" floats a chorus of "Hello, hello, hope you're feeling fine" and, elsewhere, "I want to watch you bloom and breathe." I can't help but be reminded of that song or even that record when listening to Becker's "Archeology of Cruelty," where the remains of a relationship are likened to an indelicate frieze, brushed and dated by those who don't know: "Do you keep souvenirs? / My discovery's recovery's not a / Given even after years / If they ask you lie and say it was nothing at all / If they ask you lie and tell them no one can recall / The vow."
Musicians lending Becker a hand here are the Epicycle team of Ellis and Tom Clark,
Eric Chial of the Bon Mots, Ed Tinley, Kevin Tihista and ex-Psychedelic Furs
members Mars Williams and John Ashton. Universe and Villa has a very definite
feel, with very little space between the end of singing and the elevation of
vintage synthesizers. But it doesn't sound like an aspect of control more
like an ease of command. Before this Becker played with the Chicago indie-pop
band Post Office, where the influences were, of course, pop, but not those heard
on Le Concorde. Here the atmospherics include wind effects, drums and programmed
drums and the Fender Jazzmaster, the whole of which manages to transport you
back to the likes of the adventurous yet heartfelt electronics of OMD's Architecture
and Morality without diminishing the very modern pop record it is.
Universe and Villa may even surpass the approved scrollwork of the EP with pop hits like "In the Morning," where Becker sings of sleeping "hand-in-hand with the keeper of the story." The guitar line is as infectious as his declaration. "I Hate Rock and Roll" is the only not-quite-there in evidence despite the lines "I want to want the things that I was born to want/ I want to love the things that I was born to love." But when emotion comes together so easily with music like this, only then do you realize just how exceptional that is.

Letter: Funding for vision screenings is vital
When Legislators finished their budgets in April, they appropriated $96,138 to Prevent Blindness Iowa — an organization that provides vision screenings, training and financial support to help Iowans see better. PBI is particularly focused on children’s vision screenings, which provides a great return on investment.
Visual functioning is a strong predictor of academic performance in school age children. Over 80,000 children in Iowa schools have some vision problem that impacts their ability to learn. The Department of Education spends $6,646 per year to educate a student. The cost of just one child repeating a grade level due to an undetected and untreated vision problem from each of Iowa’s 333 school districts would cost the state well over $2 million. The appropriation is just a fraction of the costs to educate children whose vision impairments go undetected.
The Legislature understood this and directed the Department of Public Health to disburse $96,138 to PBI to ensure Iowa kids can see and learn. Former Gov. Terry Branstad signed the appropriation bill. However, the Department of Public Health decided to eliminate PBI’s appropriation and those of many other nonprofit groups that provide important services to Iowans.
The Iowa Legislature and Branstad recognize a child’s ability to learn is connected to good vision. We hope that Gov. Kim Reynolds will do the right thing and rectify this situation.

Pedophiles are attracted to prepubescent children and act on their sexual fantasies. It is a startling fact that the etiology of this paraphilia is unknown. Pedophiles comes from all walks of life and have no common socio-economic background. Contrary to media-propagated myths, most of them had not been sexually abused in childhood and the vast majority of pedophiles are also drawn to adults of the opposite sex (are heterosexuals).
Only a few belong to the Exclusive Type – the ones who are tempted solely by kids. Nine tenths of all pedophiles are male. They are fascinated by preteen females, teenage males, or (more rarely) both.
Moreover, at least one fifth (and probably more) of the population have pedophiliac fantasies. The prevalence of child pornography and child prostitution prove it. Pedophiles start out as “normal” people and are profoundly shocked and distressed to discover their illicit sexual preference for the prepubertal. The process and mechanisms of transition from socially acceptable sexuality to much-condemned (and criminal) pedophilia are still largely mysterious.
Pedophiles seem to have narcissistic and antisocial (psychopathic) traits. They lack empathy for their victims and express no remorse for their actions. They are in denial and, being pathological confabulators, they rationalize their transgressions, claiming that the children were merely being educated for their own good and, anyhow, derived great pleasure from it.
The pedophile’s ego-syntony rests on his alloplastic defenses. He generally tends to blame others (or the world or the “system”) for his misfortunes, failures, and deficiencies. Pedophiles frequently accuse their victims of acting promiscuously, of “coming on to them”, of actively tempting, provoking, and luring (or even trapping) them.
The pedophile – similar to the autistic patient – misinterprets the child’s body language and inter-personal cues. His social communication skills are impaired and he fails to adjust information gained to the surrounding circumstances (for instance, to the kid’s age and maturity).
Coupled with his lack of empathy, this recurrent inability to truly comprehend others cause the pedophile to objectify the targets of his lasciviousness. Pedophilia is, in essence, auto-erotic. The pedophile uses children’s bodies to masturbate with. Hence the success of the Internet among pedophiles: it offers disembodied, anonymous, masturbatory sex. Children in cyberspace are mere representations – often nothing more than erotic photos and screen names.
It is crucial to realize that pedophiles are not enticed by the children themselves, by their bodies, or by their budding and nubile sexuality (remember Nabokov’s Lolita?). Rather, pedophiles are drawn to what children symbolize, to what preadolescents stand for and represent.
To the pedophile …
I. Sex with children is “free” and “daring”
Sex with subteens implies freedom of action with impunity. It enhances the pedophile’s magical sense of omnipotence and immunity. By defying the authority of the state and the edicts of his culture and society, the pedophile experiences an adrenaline rush to which he gradually becomes addicted. Illicit sex becomes the outlet for his urgent need to live dangerously and recklessly.
The pedophile is on a quest to reassert control over his life. Studies have consistently shown that pedophilia is associated with anomic states (war, famine, epidemics) and with major life crises (failure, relocation, infidelity of spouse, separation, divorce, unemployment, bankruptcy, illness, death of the offender’s nearest and dearest).
It is likely – though hitherto unsubstantiated by research – that the typical pedophile is depressive and with a borderline personality (low organization and fuzzy personal boundaries). Pedophiles are reckless and emotionally labile. The pedophile’s sense of self-worth is volatile and dysregulated. He is likely to suffer from abandonment anxiety and be a codependent or counterdependent.
Paradoxically, it is by seemingly losing control in one aspect of his life (sex) that the pedophile re-acquires a sense of mastery. The same mechanism is at work in the development of eating disorders. An inhibitory deficit is somehow magically perceived as omnipotence.
II. Sex with children is corrupt and decadent
The pedophile makes frequent (though unconscious) use of projection and projective identification in his relationships with children. He makes his victims treat him the way he views himself – or attributes to them traits and behaviors that are truly his.
The pedophile is aware of society’s view of his actions as vile, corrupt, forbidden, evil, and decadent (especially if the pedophiliac act involves incest). He derives pleasure from the sleazy nature of his pursuits because it tends to sustain his view of himself as “bad”, “a failure”, “deserving of punishment”, and “guilty”.
In extreme (mercifully uncommon) cases, the pedophile projects these torturous feelings and self-perceptions onto his victims. The children defiled and abused by his sexual attentions thus become “rotten”, “bad objects”, guilty and punishable. This leads to sexual sadism, lust rape, and snuff murders.
III. Sex with children is a reenactment of a painful past
Many pedophile truly bond with their prey. To them, children are the reification of innocence, genuineness, trust, and faithfulness – qualities that the pedophile wishes to nostalgically recapture.
The relationship with the child provides the pedophile with a “safe passage” to his own, repressed and fearful, inner child. Through his victim, the pedophile gains access to his suppressed and thwarted emotions. It is a fantasy-like second chance to reenact his childhood, this time benignly. The pedophile’s dream to make peace with his past comes true transforming the interaction with the child to an exercise in wish fulfillment.
IV. Sex with children is a shared psychosis
The pedophile treats “his” chosen child as an object, an extension of himself, devoid of a separate existence and denuded of distinct needs. He finds the child’s submissiveness and gullibility gratifying. He frowns on any sign of personal autonomy and regards it as a threat. By intimidating, cajoling, charming, and making false promises, the abuser isolates his prey from his family, school, peers, and from the rest of society and, thus, makes the child’s dependence on him total.
To the pedophile, the child is a “transitional object” – a training ground on which to exercise his adult relationship skills. The pedophile erroneously feels that the child will never betray and abandon him, therefore guaranteeing “object constancy”.
The pedophile – stealthily but unfailingly – exploits the vulnerabilities in the psychological makeup of his victim. The child may have low self-esteem, a fluctuating sense of self-worth, primitive defence mechanisms, phobias, mental health problems, a disability, a history of failure, bad relations with parents, siblings, teachers, or peers, or a tendency to blame herself, or to feel inadequate (autoplastic neurosis). The kid may come from an abusive family or environment – which conditioned her or him to expect abuse as inevitable and “normal”. In extreme and rare cases – the victim is a masochist, possessed of an urge to seek ill-treatment and pain.
The pedophile is the guru at the center of a cult. Like other gurus, he demands complete obedience from his “partner”. He feels entitled to adulation and special treatment by his child-mate. He punishes the wayward and the straying lambs. He enforces discipline.
The child finds himself in a twilight zone. The pedophile imposes on him a shared psychosis, replete with persecutory delusions, “enemies”, mythical narratives, and apocalyptic scenarios if he is flouted. The child is rendered the joint guardian of a horrible secret.
The pedophile’s control is based on ambiguity, unpredictability, fuzziness, and ambient abuse. His ever-shifting whims exclusively define right versus wrong, desirable and unwanted, what is to be pursued and what to be avoided. He alone determines rights and obligations and alters them at will.
The typical pedophile is a micro-manager. He exerts control over the minutest details and behaviors. He punishes severely and abuses withholders of information and those who fail to conform to his wishes and goals.
The pedophile does not respect the boundaries and privacy of the (often reluctant and terrified) child. He ignores his or her wishes and treats children as objects or instruments of gratification. He seeks to control both situations and people compulsively.
The pedophile acts in a patronizing and condescending manner and criticizes often. He alternates between emphasizing the minutest faults (devalues) and exaggerating the looks, talents, traits, and skills (idealizes) of the child. He is wildly unrealistic in his expectations – which legitimizes his subsequent abusive conduct.
Narcissistic pedophiles claim to be infallible, superior, talented, skillful, omnipotent, and omniscient. They often lie and confabulate to support these unfounded claims and to justify their actions. Most pedophiles suffer from cognitive deficits and reinterpret reality to fit their fantasies.
In extreme cases, the pedophile feels above the law – any kind of law. This grandiose and haughty conviction leads to criminal acts, incestuous or polygamous relationships, and recurrent friction with the authorities.
V. The pedophile regards sex with children as an ego-booster
Subteen children are, by definition, “inferior”. They are physically weaker, dependent on others for the fulfillment of many of their needs, cognitively and emotionally immature, and easily manipulated. Their fund of knowledge is limited and their skills restricted. His relationships with children buttress the pedophile’s twin grandiose delusions of omnipotence and omniscience. Compared to his victims, the pedophiles is always the stronger, the wiser, the most skillful and well-informed.
VI. Sex with children guarantees companionship
Inevitably, the pedophile considers his child-victims to be his best friends and companions. Pedophiles are lonely, erotomanic, people.
The pedophile believes that he is in love with (or simply loves) the child. Sex is merely one way to communicate his affection and caring. But there are other venues.
To show his keen interest, the common pedophile keeps calling the child, dropping by, writing e-mails, giving gifts, providing services, doing unsolicited errands “on the kid’s behalf”, getting into relationships with the preteen’s parents, friends, teachers, and peers, and, in general, making himself available (stalking) at all times. The pedophile feels free to make legal, financial, and emotional decisions for the child.
The pedophile intrudes on the victim’s privacy, disrespects the child’s express wishes and personal boundaries and ignores his or her emotions, needs, and preferences. To the pedophile, “love” means enmeshment and clinging coupled with an overpowering separation anxiety (fear of being abandoned).
Moreover, no amount of denials, chastising, threats, and even outright hostile actions convince the erotomaniac that the child not in love with him. He knows better and will make the world see the light as well. The child and his guardians are simply unaware of what is good for the kid. The pedophile determinedly sees it as his or her task to bring life and happiness into the child’s dreary and unhappy existence.
Thus, regardless of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, the pedophile is convinced that his feelings are reciprocated – in other words, that the child is equally infatuated with him or her. He interprets everything the child does (or refrains from doing) as coded messages confessing to and conveying the child’s interest in and eternal devotion to the pedophile and to the “relationship”.
Some (by no means all) pedophiles are socially-inapt, awkward, schizoid, and suffer from a host of mood and anxiety disorders. They may also be legitimately involved with the child (e.g., stepfather, former spouse, teacher, gym instructor, sibling) – or with his parents (for instance, a former boyfriend, a one night stand, colleagues or co-workers). They are driven by their all-consuming loneliness and all-pervasive fantasies.
Consequently, pedophiles react badly to any perceived rejection by their victims. They turn on a dime and become dangerously vindictive, out to destroy the source of their mounting frustration. When the “relationship” looks hopeless, some pedophiles violently embark on a spree of self-destruction.
Pedophilia is to some extent a culture-bound syndrome, defined as it is by the chronological age of the child involved. Ephebophilia, for instance – the exclusive sexual infatuation with teenagers – is not considered to be a form of pedophilia (or even paraphilia).
In some cultures, societies and countries (Afghanistan, for instance) the age of consent is as low as 12. The marriageable age in Britain until the end of the nineteenth century was 10. Pedophilia is a common and socially-condoned practice in certain tribal societies and isolated communities (the Island of Pitcairn).
It would, therefore, be wise to redefine pedophilia as an attraction to or sexual acts with prepubescent children or with people of the equivalent mental age (e.g., retarded) in contravention of social, legal, and cultural accepted practices.

expensive fashion Page 1
The annual Victoria’s Secret fashion show seems to get a bit more ridiculous each year, but we still love it. This November, oiled-up models will strut their stuff in barely-there lingerie and big ol’ Angel wings to the tunes of Justin Bieber, Rihanna, and Bruno Mars. The show’s last look is traditionally a very fancy and expensive bra, and this year’s wearer is Alessandra Ambrosio.
Ah, the simple laws of supply and demand. Of course, we’re no economics scholars but from the looks of things, Balmain designer Christopher Decarin was paying close attention back in high-school. How else to explain that infamous $1600 t-shirt or those $2000 jeans? But hold on to your savings accounts folks, because that was just the tip of the Keynesian iceberg.

Last week, the White House began installing American-made solar panels, which will help demonstrate that historic buildings can incorporate solar energy and efficiency upgrades, reports the Washington Post.
In 2010 President Obama pledged to install solar panels on his official residence as a sign of his commitment to renewable energy, and White House officials told the Post this was part of an overall energy efficiency effort.
But the building has had solar panels installed on it before, only to be taken out later. In the 1970s, President Jimmy Carter had 32 panels installed to heat water, but President Ronald Reagan had them taken out in the 1980s. Later, President George W. Bush had solar thermal units and photovoltaics installed on a maintenance building to heat the swimming pool.
Climate activists who lobbied Obama to go solar welcomed the news. The Solar Energy Industry Association (SEIA) lauded the announcement, stating that installing solar panels on America’s most famous building would underscore the technology’s growing popularity.
According to SEIA, the US has 30 utility-scale solar projects under construction now that deploy either photovoltaic technology or concentrating solar power. Installed solar electric capacity totals 8,500 MW, and half of all new generation units added to the grid in 2013 come from solar sources, SEIA says.
Part of Obama’s second term climate change plan involves having the federal government and the US Army, Navy and Air Force rely on 20 percent or more of renewable energy by 2020, reports the Post.
In January, the US Army dedicated its largest solar photovoltaic system at White Sands Missile Range. Developed in coordination with the US Army Engineering and Support Center – Huntsville, Siemens Government Technologies and Bostonia, the 4.1 MW White Sands Missile Range solar energy system will generate 10 million kWh of electricity annually and provide an estimated annual savings of $930,000.
Complemented by a 375 kW solar carport, the solar array deployed at White Sands will supply approximately 10 percent of the total power used at the installation.

The clean up is now done and I have time to relax a bit.
Friday evening St Charles County, MO got hit with a smallish EF-3 tornado. The hardest hit area was just a few blocks from my house, we were just on the edge of the vortex. The tornado seemed to skip around a bit as they sometimes do touching down in several neighborhoods. It then crossed the Missouri River into St Louis County hitting a large business park, including one of the casinos packed with people. Cars and trucks were tossed around and flipped over on the interstate highway and in parking lots.
The twister moved on to hit Hazelwood, MO, still recovering from an EF-2 tornado that hit just 2 weeks earlier. Then on to Ferguson, MO. More tornado activity was reported in Illinois but it has not been determined if it was the same super cell that spawned ours.
Several homes were destroyed, their lives turned upside down in just a matter of minutes. Businesses were heavily damaged, windows blown out of office buildings and garage doors blown out of warehouses. Flooding followed and debris is scattered everywhere.
Closer to home the two very large maple trees in my front yard had several large limbs broken off. One limb pulled the electric lines and meter box off the house. The electric for several blocks around was out anyway so it really didn't matter. One neighbor and I walked around to asses the damage. Not bad for either of us, he had a few willow branches down. I had large maple branches down, the electric and some minor damage to the roof. Others in the neighborhood were not so lucky. Many very large trees were completely uprooted. Other tree damage was rampantly severe. A couple houses had trees leaning on them, others the trees had cut through them.
Within a few minutes I had extension cords plugged into the RE inverter and snaking through the house. The fridge was plugged in and I had power for the TV, U-verse modem, lights and got some circulation pumps going on the saltwater aquarium. Checked the Kill-A-Watt and everything was only drawing about 450 watts. Not bad at all, most of that was the TV and the fridge will stop in a few minutes. We were able to watch some news about the damage, what areas got hit and how extensive it was.
Everyone was asking questions about how I still had electricity when everyone else was out, even days afterward. They didn't hear a generator screaming away. Of course, a couple neighbors were aware of the 1400 watts of solar panels on the roof of the garage and 735 ahr of batteries. My wife even admitted she was thankful I had put in the solar RE system.
And suddenly I didn't seem to be so crazy after all.

Memo to Baltimore fans still bitter over the Colts moving to Indianapolis: Get over it! While most football fans outside of Indiana have been sympathetic to you, your continued venom directed toward the Colts no longer looks sympathetic. It looks pathetic.
It's been 28 years.
Assuming you were at least an age where you were cognizent of the Baltimore Colts (say 10 years old), you're well into your adulthood now. Most likely, something worse and more tragic has happened to you during that time, yet you're going to hang your "anger hat" on a pro sports franchise relocating?
Your childhood tears and young adult outrage was one thing. Now that you're older, it's downright bizarre. Get professional help and move on with your life!
Robert Irsay is dead.
The person you're really angry with died almost 16 years ago. Yes, his son is now the owner of the team, but are you going to carry out your vengeance over multiple generations like the Hatfields and the McCoys? Should we send word to the Irsay girls that they shouldn't be out in public while in Baltimore? Even if Bob Irsay is deserving, your chance to loathe left this planet in 1997.
You have another team…and they're good!
It took 12 years, but the NFL did the right thing and gave Baltimore another team. And you didn't even have to struggle very long. Unlike expansion franchises who take a decade or more to reach a Super Bowl, the Ravens won one for you in 2000. This year marks the eighth time since then that your team has made the playoffs. That puts you in some elite company like New England and yes, the Colts.
Since leaving Baltimore, the Colts have been in exactly one more Super Bowl than the Ravens have and have won the same number, despite having 12 years of playing football when there wasn't a Ravens team. Are you mad that you missed the Jack Trudeau and Jeff George eras?
You did the same thing to Cleveland!
And there's a reason why you didn't struggle that much. You weren't given an expansion franchise. You stole the Browns from Cleveland! That's like going out and stealing another guy's girlfriend after having your old girlfriend stolen and then complaining forever and a day about how the first guy wronged you! That's not sympathetic, hit's hypocritical.
Now if there's a fan base that deserves to be carrying a grudge over their team leaving town, it's Cleveland toward Baltimore.
"But, Cleveland got to keep the name and all records," you object. Yeah, what a prize. Ask a Cleveland Browns' fan whether he's satisfied with uniforms and Jim Brown's records. He'd much rather have the Super Bowl won when the team left for Baltimore. The Browns have only even qualified for the playoffs once since re-entering the league in 1999. Would you have felt better if Indianapolis had given you back the horseshoe logo and Johnny Unitas' records, but you sucked for over a decade? Didn't think so.
Come on, bitter Baltimore fan. You live in a wonderful city rich with history and culture. You've got a great team that has built its own legacy in a short amount of time. You've successfully transitioned from the old to the new…if you'll let go of the past.
Let the good folks of Indianapolis enjoy the Colts and you revel in your love of your Ratbirds…err Ravens.

Because of these highly-talented and trained men and the razor-sharp senses of their German Shepherd companions (K-9's), countless American GI's are alive and well today rather than having been killed or wounded in action alongside a rice paddy or forgotten jungle trail because the courageous men from the 49th Infantry Platoon Scout Dog (IPSD) were on point, giving an early warning signal that gave young American men an edge to survive in battle.

Know more about this business than we do? Cool! Please submit any corrections or missing details you may have.Help us make it right
I am the biggest fan of this nail salon. Service and products are way better than other local shops. Price is slightly higher than other local nail salons, nevertheless you get what you paid for. I would totally recommend this nail salon to anyone. Clean environment, excellent service and easy to communicate to their employees.
I always thought this was a great place until I witnessed the owner yelling a someone over an appointment misunderstanding...The lady was right and the Cindy was wrong...you never treat a customer poorly. The lady was just explaining that the owner must not have misunderstood the date that she wanted and was replied to in such a manner that I was dumbfounded. Makes me think twice about staying loyal to this salon.

Just squeaking in before the end of November with this one!
In terms of “not being in a state of emergency”, the last month or so has probably been the best part of the year for me. We’re free of COVID at my location, and my country as a whole is doing well. Bushfire season is just starting, but we’re hoping it’s going to be less awful than last year (although there’s some suggestion it’s floods that we’ll have to watch out for this summer).
I’ve been having trouble writing over the last few weeks though (which is to say, the month of November). Delayed reaction to the year so far, or response to new stresses? I’m not sure. It will pass in time. But that’s why you’ve been seeing less new chapters of ongoing serials over the last month. I’m relying more on my backlog of one-offs until my brain recovers.
On the other hand, members got more new stories in the month of October than at any time since I started my website, so there are swings and roundabouts, I suppose.
I’m still (effectively) wholly financially supported by this website, so every purchase you make really helps.
What did members get in October?
In October, I made the following available to members through Dropbox:
- 32 all-new stories (all members);
- 15 reblogs (all members);
- 4 premium chapters of Impregnating Layla (Premium Members only),
All members received four new e-books in October:
- A Woman’s Work – Stories of Workplace Degradation (3rd edition) (view in shop) plus audiobook edition (view in shop)
- Obey The Rules – Stories of Degrading Boundaries (2nd edition) (view in shop)
- Lessons In Lust – Stories of Classroom Erotica (2nd edition) (view in shop)
- Sisters – Stories of Sisterly Lust and Sibling Rivalry (all new!) (view in shop)
Premium Members received access to an additional library of 18 e-books (see below).
Premium Member library schedule
As previously notified, here is the schedule of e-books available to Premium Members in November, and the scheduled rotation for December and January. All members, including Premium Members, also gain access to all new e-books released each month.
October site sales were up a little from September, but still fell considerably shy of the peak I saw in August.
That’s a reassuring figure – I would have been worried to see them continue to decline – but it means I’m still below where I want to be to be meeting all my financial obligations over the holiday season.
At this stage November looks likely to be comparable to October. It was showing a decline for most of the month but Black Friday sales have given me a late-month boost to bring it back to even.
Paid advertising experiment
Over late October / early November I experimented with running some paid advertising at WarpMyMind. It cost me a (USD) dollar a day and generated about 215 direct clickthroughs over 30 days. I can’t quantify how many of those clickthroughs resulted in sales, or what the indirect value of the raw impressions was, but I’m inclined to think that it probably made me more money than it cost so I’ll likely continue the ad buy.
(WarpMyMind’s own stats suggest the ad delivered about 29,000 impressions and 391 clickthroughs, but all I can say is that if that’s correct then about half those clickthroughs didn’t deliver data that enabled my site to recognise them.)
For those wondering, I’m generally wary of buying paid advertising because most of the key adult advertising networks are really shady. I can’t control what sites my ad will appear on, and a lot of the other ads on those networks contain or link to malware, or are otherwise designed to exploit and annoy users. I don’t want to support that and I don’t want my brand attached to it. But if you know of sites whose users may be interested in my books that manage their own paid site advertising, please let me know at email@example.com.
I am active and posting content on the following sites. As always, all new free content goes to BDSMLR, so if you’re following me there you’re not missing out on anything.
- MCStories (The Erotic Mind Control Story Archive)
- Reddit (on r/rapestories and r/sexystories)
- Warp My Mind
The following sites still host content posted consensually by me, but are no longer receiving new content:
- XNXX / Sexstories
If you see my content on any other site, it’s been stolen – please don’t support those sites.
If you know of other sites that might enjoy my work, please feel free to let me know at firstname.lastname@example.org. However, please check first:
* that their terms and conditions allow stories featuring non-consent and incest; and
* that they allow writers to include links to external sites, so that I can direct readers back to my shop page.
October saw the release of the first ATR audiobook, A Woman’s Work. (View in shop.)
In early November I followed it with a second, Laid Bare. (View in shop.)
At this stage I’m intending to release an additional audiobook each month for the foreseeable future.
These books are read and recorded by me. I’m satisfied with the result, and all the reviews I’ve gotten so far suggest that readers are very satisfied with it too. These audiobook versions offer all the usual benefits of an audiobook, in terms of the ability to listen instead of read, and consume my books while driving, jogging, etc. But I imagine the main attraction is for people who would like to hear the books read to them by a male voice (me).
The audiobooks are selling well enough to be worth my time. It takes me about a full working day to record one from an already-written book, so they really only need to generate a day’s worth of pay to justify themselves. But they’re not exactly flying off the shelves, so I’ll continue to consider the future of that product line.
I’ve had some enquiries about the possibility of a female-voiced version of the audiobooks. Unfortunately, the current sales just don’t justify the time and cost of creating and advertising that option, even if I were able to get a suitable female performer willing to do it for cheap or free. If my sales grow substantially in the future I’ll revisit the idea.
I am eager for any feedback on these audiobooks, including comments as to quality, pricing, or any ways to make them more professional, attractive, or useful.
On occasion, I offer Premium Members the chance to request a story, or a continuation of a story. These offers are made on a complimentary basis and are not formally included in a membership purchase. I am currently working through story requests from people who were Premium Members in August 2020. I have six stories to go in this queue before moving on to September 2020.
As part of the process of writing gender-degradation and non-consent erotica in a responsible way, I have committed to donating at least 5% of the site profits each month to a women’s charity combating domestic violence, unsafe housing and/or sexual assault. (See this post for more info.)
At the start of November I donated an amount of $160 AUD (about $1170 USD) to a registered charity providing free legal advice to women in need.
COVID-19 is putting a lot of pressure on domestic violence services right now, due to new stresses in relationships, and increased impacts on victims in abusive relationships having to spend more time with their partners. Now is a great time to make a donation to a domestic violence charity in your area if you have the ability to do so.
Thank you to everyone who reads, supports and purchases my work. My livelihood now literally depends on you, and every interaction is appreciated!
Remember – buying my products is the best way to show your appreciation, but you can also support me by:
* reblogging my content on BDSMLR and newTumbl;
* upvoting and commenting on Reddit;
* talking about and linking to my stories or website in communities of consenting kinky adults;
* spotting typos in published stories or e-books and reporting them to me by email or on BDSMLR.
Plus if you have a professional skillset that could help me or improve the ATR experience, I’d always love to hear from you.
Thanks again! And keep enjoying!

Selva R represents the “state-of-the-art” of custom tuning for MTB forks. The 2Air technology allows a very precise tuning of the air side. Thanks to the two separate air chambers, you can set the pressure of the positive chamber (Silver) according to weight, like any traditional forks, in addition to that you can also change the pressure of the negative chamber (Bronze) in order to fine-tune the response of the fork in the first part of the travel.
With the CTS Technology the possibilities of customizing the damping are potentially infinite. With the Selva R you get two CTS valves, Gold (installed) and Blue (in the box).
Thanks to the Neopos (one is already included into the Selva R) the air spring is further refined, a riding experience that’s not possible to achieve with a traditional air fork.
Selva R creates a tuning potential that has been unachievable until now. Every single parameter of the Selva R can be modified according to your own specific needs. There is no setting you cannot reach. Your riding style is already built into the fork, it’s up to you to unlock it.

freepost per copy – national & international
From your memories I will make
a prayer so as not to see you
With your steps I will fashion
a map so as to lose my way
In your shadow I will learn
the body that my hands desire
Thus in the dance I will not be with you
but you not being there
will follow me submissively.

Invocations to Pincoya in the Country of Rain
with translations from Spanish by Cola Franzen
Softcover chapbook, 28pp
Invocaciones a Pincoya was written in 1983. The manuscript was lost, then rediscovered in 1992, & revised in 1993. This is its first English publication. The poems are addressed to Pincoya, a legendary mermaid, beautiful & alluring, who lives in & around the waters of Chiloé –forest Chile– a romantic landscape between the 42nd & 43rd parallels south of the equator, with virgin forests, huge lakes, many rivers, & heavy rainfall several months of the year.
Juan Cameron was born in 1947 in Valparaíso, Chile. Members of his generation were just starting their literary careers when the Pinochet dictatorship began. To circumvent draconian censorship laws that forbade any criticism of the regime, they resorted to a coded language that could be understood by anyone familiar with the situation. A charismatic reader & an inspiration to the younger generation, Cameron used black humor & irony, with absolute devotion to the cause of poetry & freedom. Not belonging to any official group, he could not earn a living for his family, & after some years of struggle, emigrated to Sweden, where he lived for ten years. Now back in Valparaíso, he lives within earshot of the creaks of the cable cars, with his wife & collaborator, the graphic artist Virginia Vizcaíno.
Cola Franzen has translated 22 books – poetry, fiction & scholarly work from Spain & Latin America, along with essays on art & photography. She regularly translates work by Argentinian-born Alicia Borinsky, & Antonio José Ponte, a Cuban now living in Spain. Her Poems of Arab Andalusia (City Lights 1989), still attracts readers, & recently, composers.

What does it take to make things right?
Somehow we got it right with Conrail. Conrail took over the bankrupt Northeastern freight railroads, including the stillborn Penn Centrail (which was something like trying to put two Siamese twins back together). Bless them, Amtrak took the passenger routes so Conrail didn't have that problem.
Conrail took a massive infusion of federal cash and eventually got a good result. Conrail pared down the route structure, kept what remained profitable, and eventually sold out to private enterprise - the best possible result.
Amtrak took an arguably large infusion of cash at the outset and has been taking federal cash both intravenously and by mouth in large doses ever since. Instead of paring, Amtrak cut to the bone. Instead of keeping what remained profitable, Amtrak was stuck with no profit at all - from day one.
We argue that another massive infusion of cash is the only hope, but it must come with conditions. No, those conditions should not be that Amtrak make a profit. It should be that Amtrak regroup. Think outside the box, keep what makes sense, establish a completely new route and schedule structure, and become what it is supposed to be: A National Passenger Rail Network.
It's too late to just take what still exists and work with it. With the possible exception of the Northeast Corridor (which actually should be a separate railroad), everything needs to be new, different, innovative, smart, inviting, efficient, and Twenty-First Century. Stations should not look like skid-row housing and passenger cars shouldn't look anything like the streamliners of the 1950s. Give us something new, and we think taxpayers will welcome it, pay for it, and use it. Leave the antique cars to the tourist railroads and to the rail cruise companies. (Let's face it, all current Amtrak cars are antiques.)
This won't and can't happen over night. The lead times on something like this are years, not months. So all of the funding doesn't have to come at once. But come it has to. Congress, please listen.
Given the dismal prospect of today's Amtrak (ugh!), air travel (groan!), bus (eyuuuch!), or driving (oh, crap!), most of us will say something new needs to come of this.

Matt Smith returned to haunt Paul Dickov as his second half equaliser took Doncaster Rovers to a replay at Ashton Gate.
Smith, who scored twice for Dickov’s Oldham side in their famous FA Cup win over Liverpool two years ago, headed home to cancel out Luke McCullough’s first ever goal for Rovers.
The on-loan Fulham man sat out Bristol City’s FA Cup second round game but was given special dispensation by his parent club to play in today’s third round tie.
Rovers’ intense pressing disrupted the visitors’ passing game and it was the home side that had the better of a goalless first period.
Doncaster carried on where they left off after the break and got their rewards when McCullough hooked home from a corner.
But, to their credit, League One leaders City refused to be beaten and rescued what had seemed like an unlikely draw when Smith headed in Luke Ayling’s cross.
The hosts started brightly and the first two sights of goal fell to Dean Furman, who sent a looping header over the bar before City goalkeeper Frank Fielding had to be alert to block the South African’s effort following a clever pass from Harry Forrester.
At the other end Sam Johnstone had to turn shot round the post by Jay Emmanuel-Thomas and block a close range effort from Wade Elliott, while Luke Ayling hit a deflected shot just wide.
Richie Wellens was at the heart of Rovers’ good work and his excellent break from midfield teed up James Coppinger but his shot was deflected wide.
Rovers ended the first half on top but could not turn that pressure into goals, with City somewhat grateful to hear the half time whistle.
Furman curled an effort just wide as the second half began at similar breakneck speed.
And the deadlock was finally broken on 50 minutes when Andy Butler got his head to Harry Forrester’s corner and McCullough spectacularly hooked the ball home to give Doncaster a deserved lead.
Within seconds Coppinger tested Fielding’s handling, before Emmanuel-Thomas forced another save out of Johnstone from distance.
McCullough breathed a huge of relief just after the hour mark when his slip allowed Emmanuel-Thomas in but Johnstone denied the former Rovers loanee.
Furman then blazed a chance over before City enjoyed a better spell as Rovers gave away possession too cheaply.
And the visitors made the pressure count on 75 minutes when Smith got above his marker to head home Ayling’s right wing cross.
Substitute Kyle Bennett went close to regaining Rovers’ lead when his drilled effort from distance was just about dealt with by Fielding.
And the winger missed a glorious chance to win it in stoppage time when he fired over the bar from close range after good work from James Coppinger.Rovers (4-1-4-1): Johnstone; Wabara, Butler, McCullough, Stevens; Keegan; Coppinger, Wellens, Furman, Robinson, Main. Subs: Marosi, McCombe, Wakefield, Middleton, Main, Tyson, Bennett.
Bristol City (3-5-2): Fielding; Ayling, Flint, Williams; Little, K Smith, Elliott, Kane, Bryan; Emmanuel-Thomas, M Smith. Subs: Osbourne, Wagstaff, Richards, Freeman, Wynter, Cunningham, Pack.

Look. Your product is so good it almost got me into trouble. I needed the edge in college after 15 years of academic lapse and found your program. I take online courses so I was solving problems so fast the system questioned the time between problems as pure genius. Funny but now I must work slower to keep off the instructors radar screen. Funny heh? Thanks guys well worth the money.
Thanks for making my life a whole lot easier!
The program helped my son do well on an exam. It helped refresh my memory of a lot of things I forgot.
I recommend the Algebrator to students who need help with fractions, equations and algebra. The program is a great tool! Not only does it give you the answers but it also shows you how and why you come up with those answers. I've shown my students how to use the program during some of our lessons. A couple of them even bought the program to help them out with their algebra homework.
Students struggling with all kinds of algebra problems find out that our software is a life-saver. Here are the search phrases that today's searchers used to find our site. Can you find yours among them?

Senior health reform?
Here we go again. Insurance companies and members of Congress are trying to scare seniors with dire warnings that new spending cuts will hurt the popular Medicare Advantage program, forcing beneficiaries to pay more for less. The final numbers were due Monday from the Obama administration.
Our advice: Take the warnings with a big grain of salt. Many of these same folks said many of these same, scary things back when health reform was being debated in 2009, insisting that cuts to Medicare Advantage in Obamacare would devastate the program.
Instead, enrollment has grown steadily, satisfaction rates are high, and while some insurers have raised premiums, on average, premiums are lower than they were in 2011.
Let’s examine what’s really going on here.
Medicare Advantage, also known as “private Medicare,” traces its roots back to the 1970s, when politicians insisted private companies could deliver Medicare benefits better and more cheaply than traditional “government” Medicare. That wasn’t a bad idea. Competition could help, and maybe private companies really could do it for less.
But that’s not the way it worked out. By the time Obamacare was being debated in 2009, Medicare Advantage was more expensive, not less. It was getting a fat 14 percent federal subsidy over traditional Medicare, and insurers used some of the extra cash to gold-plate their plans, delivering goodies unavailable in traditional Medicare, such as free gym memberships, prescription glasses and hearing aids.
Taxpayers and traditional Medicare beneficiaries paid extra to support those freebies. Not surprisingly, Medicare Advantage has grown from just a tiny fraction of beneficiaries to nearly 16 million, or almost one-third of all seniors on Medicare.
The Affordable Care Act rightly included provisions to gradually cut the subsidy for Medicare Advantage to bring it closer to the traditional program. The subsidy was down to 6 percent over traditional Medicare last year, and it’s expected to be 3 percent to 4 percent above the government version this year. By 2015 or 2016, the private and public versions are supposed to be funded equally.
Well-run Medicare Advantage companies can do just fine on the same money the government gets to run traditional Medicare — just as early proponents insisted. Competition is working well enough to keep average premiums for Medicare Advantage at their lowest level in four years, according to an analysis by the Kaiser Family Foundation. While some plans are raising their prices sharply, most seniors can find competing plans that keep premiums the same or less.
Forcing Medicare Advantage plans to live with little or no subsidy over government Medicare is entirely fair, but you wouldn’t know it from the howling by Congress, where 273 members of the House and Senate from both parties have signed letters demanding that upcoming cuts for 2015 be suspended.
We’d guess that if you asked any of these politicians whether they support wasteful spending that gives one class of Medicare patients more benefits than another, they’d say no. But in the middle of an election year, on a popular program for seniors that’s especially easy to demagogue, that’s exactly what they’re doing.

CRCM IN LIBYA
OUR SENIOR LIBYA ANALYST
Jason Pack has dedicated his career to researching Libya’s history, politics, culture, and economics. Working as an academic, consultant, and commentator he provides impartial analysis on Libya to decision makers, businesses, investors and the public. Jason’s new book Libya and the Global Enduring Disorder argues that the Libyan conflict constitutes the ideal microcosm in which to identify the salient features of our new era of geopolitics and is the culmination of his two decades’ of experience working on the Middle East. It is to be published in 2021 by Hurst.
Since 2011, Jason Pack and his consultancy Libya-Analysis LLC have produced evidence-based analysis, forecasting and research on Libya
for Western enterprises and governments. With a highly skilled network of Libyan and international analysts, Libya-Analysis LLC has expertise across a range of sectors and disciplines including political risk, oil and gas, shipping, security, economic institutions, international development, and business intelligence.
In 2015, Jason founded Eye on ISIS, an American non-profit 501(c)(3) with a core mission to promote a more nuanced and accurate understanding of Islamist movements and the threat of different strains of Islamic militancy. Eye on ISIS’s flagship project is Libya Security Monitor (LSM) which tracks the activities of Libya’s armed groups and political actors, the Islamic State’s offshoot in Libya as well as the other Libyan jihadi movements.
Media and think tank presence
Jason’s articles have appeared in the New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Spectator, The Financial Times, The Petroleum Economist, The Guardian, Foreign Policy and Foreign Affairs. Jason is a Non-Resident Fellow at the Middle East Institute and writes deep-dive think tank reports for a range of institutions, including the Atlantic Council in Washington and the Istituto Affari Internazionali in Rome.
Jason is one of a handful of American academics to have been able to live and research in Libya during the Qadhafi era. Capitalizing on this unique experience and an ensuing stint administering the U.S.-Libya Business Association, he runs a widely consulted independent blog on Libyan politics – Libya-Analysis.com.
Jason holds a MSt in global and imperial History from Oxford University.
He has lived more than seven years in the Middle East (e.g. Oman, Morocco, Egypt, Syria, Libya, Lebanon), He speaks and reads Arabic and French.
Jason is also the author or co-author of

Libyan Jihad Monitor
CRCM is a proud funding sponsor of EYE ON ISIS IN LIBYA, a pro-bono repository of non-partisan, cross-checked information about the development of the Islamic State’s (ISIS) offshoot in Libya as well as the other Libyan jihadi movements from which it derives and with which it occasionally competes.
The vision for this site came in 2015 as Jason Pack (its founder and CRCM's Senior Libya Advisor) was increasingly inundated with questions by Western media and governments about ISIS’ latest activities in Libya. As Jason had previously focused on Libyan history, economy, constitutional developments, and diplomacy, he struggled to answer these questions himself yet could find no repository of definitive and comprehensive information about ISIS in Libya to recommend.
There were scholars specializing in the Muslim Brotherhood in North Africa and others with expertise about al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb or the spread of Salafism from Egypt westward, but because ISIS was such a new and dynamic phenomenon and Libya such an understudied country there were per force no experts dedicated exclusively to the study of ISIS in Libya. Out of this realization, EYE ON ISIS IN LIBYA was born. To make this dream a reality, Jason has established a team of experts who collect and disseminate information on ISIS and other jihadi groups in Libya:
Each week, this “ISIS in Libya monitoring service” provides updates in four sections:
ISIS in Action,
Other Jihadi Groups, and
The Anti-ISIS Coalition.
To receive this information as a weekly email, please go to CRCM's collaboration partner EYE ON ISIS IN LIBYA on www.eyeonisisinlibya.com and subscribe to their Newsletter.

What was advertised in a colonial American newspaper 250 years ago today?
“Bengalls, Chints, striped Ginghams, and red & white striped Holland.”
Samuel Cottman advertised “a Variety of English Goods” in the June 13, 1769, edition of the Essex Gazette. To whet prospective customers’ appetite, he listed some of the items available at his shop, though his litany of goods was nowhere near as extensive as what appeared in George Deblois’s advertisement on the same page. That advertisement extended half a column, while Cottman’s filled a single square of text (the standard unit for purchasing advertising space in eighteenth-century newspapers). Still, Cottman named about a dozen kinds of textiles that customers would find among his merchandise. In the process, he engaged readers in a conversation about consumer culture that relied on specialized knowledge of the goods presented for their consideration.
Cottman offered several fabrics that customers could use to make “Men’s Waistcoats,” including “Bengalls,” “Chints,” “Ginghams,” and “Holland.” He also supplied “Gauze” for aprons and “Persians” for other uses. While some of these patterns remain familiar in the twenty-first century, most are not as widely recognized as they were in the eighteenth century … and they were certainly recognized by average readers and consumers. Cottman, Deblois, and others who advertised in the Essex Gazette and other newspapers throughout the colonies knew that their fellow customers spoke the language of consumer culture, especially when it came to textiles. They knew that prospective customers could distinguish among the several fabrics listed in Cottman’s advertisement as well as nearly a dozen others that Deblois included in his lengthier notice. Even if they could not afford certain fabrics or declined to purchase them because the patterns did not suit their tastes, readers knew the differences among the options presented to them and could easily envision them.
By modern standards, Cottman’s advertisement seems dull. It looks like a dense block of text that would have incited little interest in the goods he attempted to sell. Yet it must be considered according to how readers in the eighteenth-century would have read it. Few advertisements included any sort of visual images. Those that did usually did not feature depictions of the particular merchandise offered for sale; instead, crude woodcuts replicated shop signs or showed generic representations of commonly purchased items. No newspaper advertisement provided color images of fabrics or other goods. Instead, advertisers relied on the imaginations of readers. They deployed the expansive language of consumer culture as a means of invoking images that printing technologies of the time allowed them to deliver only through text. Eighteenth-century readers, well versed in the language of consumption, would have derived far more from Cottman’s advertisement than just the words on the page. It would have evoked vivid images of the many sorts of fabrics in his inventory.

We all take hopping into the car to get where we need to be for granted. So when your car is off the road after an accident or having it stolen it can be a major inconvenience, but you can avoid this if you include the Courtesy Car option in your motor insurance policy because we’ll help you carry on with your normal life while we sort things out for you.
A courtesy car is provided if you use one of our approved repairers. We aim to provide a car within 24 hours of you contacting us. You’ll be able to keep it until your own vehicle is back on the road.
If your car is stolen or can’t be repaired, we’ll provide a courtesy car up to a maximum of 14 days.
If you have a comprehensive policy, we’ve two levels of courtesy car cover you can choose from. The standard option offers you a small three door 1 litre hatchback, or with the enhanced option you have a five door 1.6 litre car with room for five people. If you normally drive an automatic we can provide one. If you’re a van driver, you tell us when you take out this cover whether you prefer a car, a car-style van, a panel-style van, or a long wheel based van, should you need it.
So with our courtesy car cover you’ll remain on the move even when your vehicle is off the road.
And that’s it, insurance made a little easier.

History of the Palani Murugan Temple
The temple was believed to be constructed by Cheraman Perumal – A king of the chera dynasty. There is an interesting story about it. When the king was touring the Palani hills, Lord Murugan came and gave a darshan in his dream. He instructed the king to rebuild the hill temple. The Chera King went up the hill and really found the idol of Murugan. He with all devotion rebuilt the present temple.
Next came Cholas and Pandyas; they also expanded the small temple by adding mandapams and gopurams between 8th and 13th centuries. The Nayaka kings did their part by adding beautiful sculptures.
The edicts on the walls of the Temple stand as proof of the gifts for conducting poojas and constructions made by several kings.
The names found are – Jadavarma Sundara Pandian (1259 A.D), Sadayavarman sundarapandiyan, Sadayavarman veerapandian, Veera Nanjana wudaiyar, Mallikarjuna Devarayar II and others. Mallikarjuna Devaryar belonged to Nayaka Dynasty.
There is also mention about Palani temple in Sangam Literature where it is called as ‘Podhini’.The book is ‘Thirumurugattrupadai’.The poems refer Palani as the third Padai Veedu of Murugan in his fights against the Asuras.
Arunagirinathar makes mention about Palani and Murugan in his ‘Thiruppugazh’.
The story of ‘Pazham nee’, Idumban and Kavadi tradition are found in Sthalapuranam which explains the puranic references.
If one wants to know more about The Sthalpuranam-click here
Tamilnadu is famous for sculpture and paintings in temples. Palani temples, which were close to the hearts of various dynasties of Kings, have its own beautiful pieces.
At the entrance near the Rajagopuram one cannot miss the amazing pieces of two ladies: one standing with her child and another standing in front of her. In the front mandapam we can see deer, parrot, rishis in tapas and pillars with ‘Yalli’- an animal with the face of dragaon and body of a lion. The ‘Karpaga Vruksham’-A tree which gives everything one wants- is carved in the walls of the mandapam. In Thiru Aavinan Kudi and Periyanayaki Amman temple we can see similar beauties in pillars and walls. In the Navaranga Mandapam the dancing posture of Lord Siva and Goddess Kali attract everybody.

Australia decided: Crispr instead of organic
by Leo Frühschütz (comments: 0)
The Australian parliament has sanctioned the government’s decision to exclude new genetic engineering processes from genetic engineering law.
“No other country is deregulating CRISPR GMO technology to the extent that Australia is”, comments Glenn Schaube, chairman of the Australian organic association NASAA. He fears drastic consequences for Australia’s organic farmers.
Schaube says that “Australia’s agriculture and food sector will in a short space of time be unable to reassure people that the food being produced in Australia is GM free and meets the Australian National Organic and Biodynamic Standard”. This would also have a massive impact on exports of GMO-free or organic food. This is “a disaster for Australia’s organic industry”, Schaube complained, saying that the organic industry is made “the sacrificial lamb to the deregulation of GMO technologies”.
So far, Australian genetic engineering law has stipulated that all genetically modified organisms (GMOs) require approval. In April 2019, the Australian government presented an amendment to the Gene Technology Regulations Act. According to this amendment, certain procedures, such as targeted gene deactivation, can be applied without any authorization. Organisms produced using new genetic engineering methods such as CRISPR/cas also do not require authorization, provided that no foreign genetic material was incorporated in the process.
European scientific association supported their Australian colleagues
Environmental and organic associations tried to put a stop to this legislative change by submitting a petition to Parliament. They argued that no country in the world has yet legislated such a broad exception to the genetic engineering law. In view of the risks associated with new genetic engineering techniques, the organisations appealed to parliamentarians to comply with the precautionary principle. Without sufficient regulations, these organisms could enter the food chain without any safety assessment, without clarifying possible allergic, toxic or carcinogenic effects, warned Judy Carman, Director of the Institute of Health and Environmental Research. The European scientific association ENSSER supported their Australian colleagues and also appealed to Australian parliamentarians to stop the law. There is neither a guarantee that the use of the new techniques will produce the desired results nor that it will be safe, the ENSSER letter says.
The appeals had no effect: The Green Party was alone in the parliamentary vote; the governing coalition and the oppositional Labour Party confirmed the government’s decision. Slowfood Australia pointed out that the Coalition and Labour had received donations from Bayer and the CropLife lobby.
The US Department for Agriculture (USDA) reported the find of unapproved genetically modified wheat on an unplanted field in the US state of Washington. The wheat was modified to be resistance against the herbicide Roundup.
Bayer subsidiary Monsanto has been trying to establish its drought-tolerant genetically engineered maize in Africa. It is intended to protect African farmers from the increasing effects of drought. But the maize does not live up to Monsanto’s promises. The South African Ministry of Agriculture has therefore denied Monsanto a cultivation permit.
In the Indian state Haryana, a small farmer has illegally planted genetically modified eggplants. Environmental activists fear that this is not an isolated case and demand decisive action from the authorities – so far without success.

"The lifestyle is incorporating the vintage with it, not being antique but one of a kind," Weathers said.
And Weathers should know; she's a veteran of vintage.
Weathers is owner and operator of Ruffles & Rust Square in Snohomish. She is also the promoter of Ruffles & Rust Vintage Market.
Ruffles & Rust Vintage Market takes place this weekend at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds, where more than 80 vendors and handcrafters from Washington, Oregon and Idaho will gather to showcase the frills and foundations of a vintage lifestyle.
Guests can expect to see at this year's market a new wave of "big, huge dramatic displays," Weathers said.
Some vendors will be highlighting the hot trend right now: vintage-style wedding themes.
Vintage-style weddings focus on putting the "something old" into the festivities by using a lot of vintage decor: old buffets to hold cakes and desserts; blue Ball or mason jars to hold flowers; old-timey suitcases stacked one on top of another, leaving the top one open for receiving cards and letters; chalkboards for welcoming guests; pictures in big beautiful vintage frames. The list goes on.
"Everybody is trying to do it on a budget," Weathers said. "You buy blue Ball jars for 40 tables for $100. Put flowers in them and they look great."
All the big retail stores and designers are trying to capitalize on the vintage theme, trying to appeal to the 25- to 55-year-old demographic by incorporating the retro look into all their reproductions.
Ruffles & Rust can offer the vintage look for half the price of larger retailers, said Weathers, who does scouts and scavenges herself to help fill the shelves.
"And I want the vintage," Weathers stressed. "The rusty and the crusty, and the stained and the chipped stuff. What we have is one of a kind, the real-deal stuff."
Also at this year's vintage market at the fairgrounds, guests will be reintroduced to the grow-and-eat-organic theme with food selections such as rubs and spices by local celebrity chef and recent James Beard Foundation award winner Tom Douglas; cookies, scones, jams and jellies made from locally grown products from Skagit County, and extra virgin olive oils, and blackberry and Marionberry balsamic vinegars from Oregon's Willamette Valley, Weathers said.
Shows like the Ruffles & Rust Vintage Market provide guests with the opportunity to try locally grown and organic food while also looking at beautiful displays to learn how to go vintage, Weathers said.
"You learn to incorporate the new pieces and old pieces and make it look pretty," Weathers said.
Weathers said she has been marketing her Ruffles & Rust Square store as a place where customers can buy vintage on a budget and also become inspired.
"Even if you don't find something, you are going to at least leave inspired to do something," Weathers said. "We like to watch people walk out with their eyes crossed over with stimulation."
Theresa Goffredo: 425-339-3424; email@example.com.
Ruffles & Rust Vintage Market is from 5 to 9 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at Evergreen State Fairgrounds, 14405 179th Ave. SE, Monroe.
Friday night's opening is a special early shopping event; only 400 tickets are sold for that night. Tickets for Friday are $30 at the door. Friday's ticket can be used for re-entry Saturday. Tickets for Saturday are $7.
Tickets are also available at Ruffles & Rust Square, 1234 First St., Suite No 1, Snohomish, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays, and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sundays and Mondays.

We have had an amazing experience this week. We have a secret little corner of Facebook for parents of TN patients. We share info, ask questions, and sometimes vent at the basic wrong-ness of having a child fighting this beast.
A couple of weeks ago, one of the families posted that they would be in CA for a doctor’s appointment with one of the doctors a number of us have traveled to see, would anyone else happen to be there at the same time? Astonishingly, 7 families would be there about the same time, with ~40 hours of overlap.
So coordinating went into overdrive, and literal spreadsheets of schedules were made. We unfortunately were unable to get all 7 kids together at the same time. But we did get 6 at one time, and then swap one child out and another in, and have 6 another time.
If you are a parent of a TN Kid, you need to talk to other parents of TN kids. I can not tell you how beneficial this can be. The first night when we got 6 families together, we were in an Italian cafe, and we toasted not being alone, and we shut the place down together that night. It is powerful to not be alone. To say “the pain” to someone, have them reply “I know.” And they really do. Really. They’re not comparing it to that bad headache they had last week. To meet others who are tearing up – Moms and Dads – because they have been fighting the same battle with their children.
You are not alone.
And you know what? Your child needs to connect with other children with TN. Because THEY ARE NOT ALONE. They are not the only one. They are not weird. (Well, ok, they may be weird. We have plenty of the best kinds of weird running around. But it’s not because of the TN!)
It can be awkward: texting, skyping, whatever, with far flung other kids your child doesn’t know. All of the kids who have done so have been hesitant at first. Most of the actual “texting nights” have been precipitated by one of the kids being in a particularly bad place, motivating the other kids to throw caution to the wind and jump in. And every one of them have said it was really awesome, and not nearly as awkward as they were worried it would be by the end.
They are not alone.
Don’t be alone in your fight. If you want to get more connected with other TN families, you can email us at TNKidsRock@gmail.com.

There was garbage in the garden.
It was a nice, sunny day. As there would be no lessons with Mariwa, I decided to invite Mishuli to go out to play in the garden. I had gone on ahead and just now arrived.
It had happened to catch my eye, and I was a little bewildered by it.
I couldn’t stop myself from stretching out the sound as I stared at the garbage. I looked up towards the sky in an attempt to escape this reality, but it was not likely to erase the garbage from existence.
I once again returned my gaze to the problematic object.
And then, it moved.
Apparently, this piece of garbage was just not any garbage. As soon as it felt my gaze, it began to move. Judging by the way it stirred, it was probably raw garbage. I was sure of it.
The garbage groaned. It sounded like it was in pain. I supposed that the pain was the reason that it had been squirming about until now.
“Da, damn. Who, who are you…!”
The piece of garbage had actually started to talk now.
Ah, no, I must stop trying to fool myself. It’s gone a little too far now. It is unbecoming of a lady to try and dismiss reality. I must face reality for what it really is. If I cannot accept reality than I cannot learn to deal with it.
There was a filthy garbage-like person in the Noir house’s garden.
The garbage, who was apparently a common boy, did have one thing in common with me.
We both had black hair and eyes. We also seemed to be the same age. And while I did say that he was quite filthy, it appeared to be because he had been playing. His actual clothes seemed to be well-made, considering his common status.
It was likely that his family was rather well off. My guess would be that he had well-established parents who were merchants, lawyers or doctors or any such intellectuals.
But let me be clear. I have never met this boy before.
After all, as the daughter of a duke, I would never have any acquaintances who were this filthy. First of all, none of my acquaintances would do something so queer as to climb the walls of our mansion and then fall off.
However, I did know this boy’s name.
He was one of three boys who had the possibility of being united with Mishuli in ‘Labyrinth Destiny.’
As far as the story went, he was a commoner that was brilliant enough to enroll at the Royal Academy. I am pretty sure that he was the same age as me. Even worse, he had the same hair and eye color as well. There was a scene in the game where he falls off the walls of the Noir mansion and is treated by Mishuli, so there was no mistaking that he was indeed Leon.
It was not very likely that there were many other wicked children around, who would to dare climb our walls.
Once I had accepted all of this, I looked up into the sky and sighed heavily.
“Why did you have to come…”
I complained, but in truth, I already knew the reason. If fate had been brought to a standstill because of a bug like me, it made sense that the others who I could not influence, would still continue to move as fate had dictated.
However, if that were the case, I knew an easy way of dealing with it.
“…I suppose I’ll throw it away.”
Leon looked very alarmed when he heard what I had mumbled, but garbage was meant to be thrown away. It did not matter to me if that garbage also happened to fall off a wall and cry in pain and was also a small child. I did not have the smallest shred of hesitation in throwing out this trespasser.
After all, this boy had climbed the wall that surrounded the Noir mansion. It could only have been to commit some sort of crime. Was he just testing his nerve or did he mean mischief? The fact that he would try to play with something from a noble’s mansion showed that he knew no fear. I could have no sympathy for him now.
But more than anything, I did not want someone so involved with fate to meet Mishuli.
It was my great fortune that I discovered him first. I must call the servants and have him thrown out before Mishuli arrives. If that happens, then his and Mishuli’s connection would vanish, this fateful event would not occur.
But really, I had a strong dislike for the garbage in front of me just by the fact that there was a chance he could end up with Mishuli. Leaving my fiance, Charles aside, I did not feel I could ever get along with Leon or the first prince. Fate was using them to separate I and Mishuli. I would resist this to the bitter end.
“Throw, throw away? What are you trying to do!”
If he had any ideas of what I should do instead of throwing him out, I would like to hear them. But it seemed that he at least understood that he had done something wrong. Leon’s face was full of fear. I looked back at him cooly.
“I’m sure you know what road lies ahead of you for trying to sneak into a noble’s mansion?”
By the way, the typical way for nobles to deal with common children attempting to sneak into their mansions was to rebuke them and throw them out.
Leon was clearly aware of what lay ahead of him, for his face turned pale and his body began to shake.
“I, I’m sorry… I, I was dared to by a friend…”
“Why would I care!”
I did feel like he was panicking to an abnormal degree, but I wasn’t interested in hearing excuses.
I needed to call someone and get this over with.
There was not much time left. I needed to hurry before Mishuli–
–Mishuli had come.
I turned my head with a movement like a rusty nail, and there before me was my archangel, the most adorable person in the world.
However, Mishuli’s gaze had gone past me and was looking at Leon, the intruder.
“Who is that person?”
“…It’s a person, right?”
I stated flatly, but Mishuli had rejected my answer, which was very unusual for her. I had only wanted to keep her interest away, but my deception had not worked very well.
“Uhh…yes. He is an intruder and will be gone very soon. Don’t worry about him.”
Right when I said that he ‘will be gone,’ Leon’s shoulders began to shudder. What was with him? Was he so scared of being scolded? I don’t remember his character being such a coward…
Mishuli murmured as she stared hard at the suspicious looking boy. She was paying a special amount of attention to the color of his hair and eyes.
“Are you hurt?”
Mishuli had asked the question to him. She looked at him head on, gazing into his eyes. Leon looked taken aback by this but nodded.
“Oh. So you are hurt. …Wait here a moment!!”
Saying this, Mishuli turned around to face me.
“Sister. Let us help him!”
This suggestion was most sweet and worthy of Mishuli, but it gave me such a bad sense of deja vu that I started to become dizzy.
–You’re hurt. …Wait here a moment!
That line, it was the same as the one in my memories.

Like 'DES daughters,' DES granddaughters may have an increased risk of reproductive tract cancers, an animal study published today suggests.
DES, or diethylstilbestrol, is the synthetic estrogen once used in attempts to treat women at risk for miscarriage...
Now, scientists at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences report that they have observed an increase in cancers, including cancer of the uterus, in female mice whose mothers were exposed to DES in utero-while in the uterus. The subsequent generation of female mice reported today was not exposed to DES.
While both generations had increased reproductive tract cancers, fertility was impaired only in the female mice exposed to DES in utero (the 'DES daughters') but not in their unexposed female offspring (the 'DES granddaughters'), the scientists said.
The study was reported today in the scientific journal Carcinogenesis (September, pp. 1655-1663) by Retha R. Newbold, Rita B. Hanson and Wendy N. Jefferson, all of NIEHS; Bill C. Bullock of the Bowman-Gray School of Medicine at Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem, N.C.; Joseph Haseman of NIEHS, and John A. McLachlan of Tulane/Xavier Center for Bioenvironmental Research, Tulane University, New Orleans.
Newbold and her colleagues said "the data suggest transmission of susceptibility of genital tract cancers to subsequent generations." They said this concept is supported by results in male mouse siblings in which like the females described in this study, reproduction is not affected but rare cancers are observed. A report on the effects in males is being completed, Newbold said.
Newbold and her colleagues said that although additional study of risks from environmental agents are needed, the findings "indicate that the cascade of events that lead to the appearance of a tumor may well begin before birth and perhaps before conception."
For more than 20 years, beginning in the 1940s, DES was commonly prescribed to pregnant women to prevent miscarriages, but the practice was abandoned after 1971 when investigators found an extremely rare reproductive tract tumor, vaginal adenocarcinoma, in the young daughters of the treated women. Although the incidence of cancer was ultimately determined to be low, other abnormalities - including poor reproductive outcome in DES daughters - are quite common.
Other well-known uses of DES, such as to fatten cattle and chickens, have also been discontinued.
Carcinogenesis is available on the Web at http://carcin.oxfordjournals.org/

Handmade Especially for You, a tax-exempt non-profit 501(c)3 (EIN: 26-3529292) needs crocheters who want to make a difference in the lives of domestic violence victims. Please make comfort scarves for abused women!
At Handmade Especially for You, we make and distribute "comfort scarves" for women who have suffered from domestic violence and now live in shelters. We tie each scarf with a ribbon and include a note signed by the maker. Our goal in making these scarves is to provide a gift of comfort to someone who may have never received a gift before and to show that someone cares. In 2012 we made and delivered over 12,000 comfort scarves to domestic violence victims at 60 shelters in S. CA. But we barely scratched the surface of the need. We hope to continue serving at least our current 60 shelters in 2013. We need you!
Please help by crocheting. If you want to make scarves and need yarn, we can supply kits so that you canparticipate. If you want to make scarves from your own stash, here are the guidelines (more detailed instructions in "Requirements"):
Use big hooks: K, N, or P depending on the weight of your yarn
- Use soft yarn (for comfort).
- Pick happy colors.
- Make them four to five inches wide.
- Make them at least 60 inches long.
- Use open-weave stitch if possible (so they can be used in warm weather climates).
- Add some novelty yarn or ribbon to make them special.
To donate scarves or yarn please mail to:

Do you sometimes hate finding your gadget or you charger in the most unexpected places just because you don’t have a proper corner to place them? One of the solutions I find effective is buying wall hooks to keep my personal stuff organized. I have a few wall hooks in different shapes and sizes that come in handy when I needed to hang something. So, if you own a light musical instrument probably a guitar and you are looking for a wall hook, you can check guitar wall mount at musiciansfriend.com. I think they also sell guitar stands so check it out.

THE QUESTION OF CLEARNESS
Clearness I may best define as the distinguishing quality of a style that cannot be misunderstood. To be thoroughly clear, it is not enough that style express the writer's meaning; style must so express this meaning that no rational reader can have any doubt as to what the meaning is. To come as near clearness as I could, for example, I deliberately avoided pronouns in that last sentence, repeating style and meaning with a clumsiness defensible only on the score of lucidity.
And Macaulay, discussing the use of the French word, abbé, in place of the English, abbot, expresses the same rule even more forcibly:
We do not like to see French words introduced into English composition: but, after all, the first law of writing, that law to which all other laws are subordinate, is this, that the words employed shall be such as convey to the reader the meaning of the writer. Now an abbot is the head of a religious house; an abbé is quite a different sort of person. It is better undoubtedly to use an English word than a French word; but it is bet-

Touching "come back" to the roots in Gorski Kotar
AMERICAN MIHALEVICH PEOPLE HAVE VISITED A HOMELAND OF THEIR ANCESTORS
Touching "come back" to the roots in Gorski Kotar
Our roots perform a big part of what we are. I would want that my daughter also see the land of her ancestors, because if we wait any longer, a connection with these roots will be lost.But,when we`ve come here and whenwe've visited our relatives, we`ve realized the meaning of the words that we are the sameblood, no matter how many kilometers we are separated, says Jenny
Text writer: Smiljana Radovic
Cameraman : Roni Brmalj
"With stomach for the bread", in exile in 19th and 20th century went a lot ofCroats, and they were,depending how much time has passed since they've left, becomingrelatives to whom one is coming once in a lifetime or those who has stood here simply has erased them from the generationmemory. Since that time America has, until nowadays, become in popular stories a land in which honey and milk flows and from where packages with Truman eggs arecoming. Today exiles are no longer illiterate farmers and they are highly educated youngmen, but for all of them the common thing is that this land couldn't afford conditions for a decent life.
The story of parents of 86-years old John Mihalevich from the U.S.A. is one of the many similar stories that are talking about poverty and going over the Big Pond.But,why this story is different is that John has decided todiscover, together with his children, what does a land of his ancestors look like,what is hiding under the unknown name Fuzine,what kind of people are distant relatives whose ancestorsdidn't push off to a distant continent.... For the first time the land of his ancestors John met this summer,and conversation with that American man and other "culprits" for this adventure we`ve guided in a restaurant"Volta" in Fuzine,at a place that runs Renata Korica,who is also in family relations with Mihalevich people,where the reunion and companionship with music took place for american as well as croatian side of the Mihalevich family.
" My father has exiled from Croatia at the beginning of the last century, and the road has drifted him to Iowa.His first goal was to collect enough money so as to return to his homeland and find his wife,since he didn`t want to marry anyone but a croat girl.His plan has realized,they were married here and they have come back to the States.They`ve had 8 sons and 2 daughters,and the living ones are my brother Phillip and I and both sisters, Catherine and Margaret.He has settled again in Iowa and worked in a coal mine until the 1925.when he got a job in a hospital" said John. "This was one of the reasons why I later went to the medical school and became a doctor".The whole story is confirmed with data that were taken out from the arhives by Bosiljka Grubisic,an ancestor from the part of the Mihalevich family that has stood in a homeland.These data are saying that Phillip Mihalevich from Fuzine,Breg 214,on May,16,1908,married Katarina Rupe from Fuzine.
Meeting full of emotions
Besides the history of their family in the States,John and the other visitors from America have spoken much more about what was "wind out" in their hearts and soul since they`ve stepped on a soil from where a long time ago "with stomach for the bread" their ancestors pushed off.
" Tears were coming to my eyes when I`ve seen a birthplace of my parents.I am delighted that we are here;when we came to this beautiful land,to Gorski Kotar, one question has come to all of us on mouth:"why would anyone want to leave this wonderful country?"But,from the stories of my parents,and from the stories of many relatives from Croatia that I`ve met,I know that they were forced to do so because of the bad conditions,or what they simply said – bread.As far as I know,my parents had here a garden,but I don`t know whether my father has worked here,and I think if he had worked,he would be a wood-cutter",said John,looking all the time on his sons and daughter,messaging that in that adventure are all equally "ducked" with equally strong emotions when they met a land in which their parents or their grandfathers,has fell in love.
Prejudices are carburetted
All the children of John Mihalevich Sr.,Don,Rick,John Jr.,Rob and Jenny,have pointed out the great hospitality of masters of the house in Gorski Kotar,because,as they emphasized,they`ve received them as they`ve never gone.To proove that they feel here as if they are at home,on question what do they think about our victory over Italy,Rick, the youngest son of John, has pulled out the dress of croatian national team,with a remark that when he returns home he will show it to everyone. One of the good indicators how they were emotionally shaken with the visit to the ancestors`land,was when they were asked who will win in a possible game between Croatia and USA- they simply didn`t know the answer. Besides they were surprised with natural beauties of a small country as Croatia is,in talking with their relatives and other Croats, they `ve understood that many of their comprehensions about our country were wrong.But,what was the most important,in touch with pure air of Gorski Kotar prejudices were carburetted.As well as many other strangers
they also couldn`t understand at all war events and that in Jugoslavia,in a same country,have lived same people.
"This is one phenomenal experience,specially getting to know your customs and habits.American nation is actually a nation of exiles, and in honor of an american dream many of us have forgotten our roots.My family has decided to "visit" our roots because they perform a big part of what we are.I would want that my daughter can also see land of her ancestors,because if we wait any longer,a connection with these roots will be lost.But,when we`ve come here and when we`ve visited our relatives, we`ve realized the meaning of the words that we are the same blood,no matter how many kilometres we are separated.The best part of this trip was to see how my father experiences all that,specially the moment when we`ve visited the church in which his parents were baptized and married. Our two cultures are so different,because in our country there is no such a feeling of permanency,in difference from this place that seems so long lasting",said John`s daughter Jenny,once again coming back on a story about hospitality of people from Gorski Kotar because" here they gave them to eat and drink much more than they can consume" and suddenly she said that "women here are beautiful,and men look like manly".
Among twelve Americans we found the main "culprit" for the visit of " a cradle of civilization",Gaylene Mihalevich Billington,a daughter of Andrew,son of Phillip Mihalevich,for whom this has been a second visit to Croatia. Before first visit the american side of the family have already finished their ancestry,but the missing parts were data from the 18th and 19th century. The group of 6 Mihalevich people with one of their friends visited our country 2 years ago;the only thing they `ve known was that they originate from Fuzine and they were searching whether there still exist some members of their family in Croatia.They have come over the "Atlas" agency who has found a relative and it was Bosiljka Golik Grubisic,whose mother was a syster of Katarina Rupe.First contacts of family Rupe with the Americans was realized by Ivica Hus, Bozidar Kauzlaric and Ervin Grubisic with his wife Jasna.Delighted with a landscape and a reception in the family,Gaylene has decided to bring along Mihalevich people in Fuzine.Intended – realized,so in June,together with 13 members of the Mihalevich family and their 3 friends,in Gorski Kotar came also 9 representatives of families Crnic,Iskra,Frkovic and Blaskovic,originally from Mrkopalj.After they`ve seen Mrkopalj and Begovo Razdolje,they`ve visited also a birthplace of Phillip Mihalevich, father of John Mihalevich,where the descendant of family Mihalevich, Ivana Sljepcevic,in the house in Street Breg,has done a reunion.As for an introduction in reunion of american and croatian relatives that was taken its place in "Volta",there was a big tablet with Mihalevich` family tree.
Data burried in archives
"To accomplish all that,data from registers of births,marriages and deaths for the 18th ,19th and 20th Century were needed to be gathered.Now we have data for the ancestor Peter Mihalevich and his wife Maria from the year 1775.The data were found in Register`s office Delnice,State Archives in Rijeka and Croatian State Archives in Zagreb.It lasted 2 years in full,and the most informations I`ve found in State Archives in Rijeka.If it hadn`t been a comprehensive help of M.S. Mladenka Merdzanic,leader of the library,who has patiently introduced me in all that and has been always here ready to jump to help,this would have never been done.On the other side,in Mrkopalj, a poet Ankica Crnic has offered me a big help; herhusband Franjo has the relations with families Frkovic and Blaskovic"said Bosiljka Grubisic,emphasized that because of the dislocation of sources the research lasted so long.Small districts and towns have no money so it exists no possibility here in near future that inarchives, on one place,one can find the books ,in which data about forgotten relatives long ago of nowadays depopulated Gorski Kotar are placed. Leaving Fuzine,after us,we`ve left numerous Mihalevich family whose members have long into the night tried to store as much memories as they can,never again to be lost.
In family also a staged Mihalevich people
One of the curiosities connected to the Mihalevich family is that to this family belong also 2 well-knownCroatian musicians, Mario and Branimir Mihalevic,who pointed out that " there can be no more beautiful day than this one in which he has extended number of members of his family to such a big number and realize how yourrelatives are group of so many different people"
My Uncle John Mihalevich and his first cousin Bosiljka Grubisic met for the first time and he is 86 and she is 77. What a meeting this was, you can only imagine the tears. Uncle John's mother and Bosiljka mother were sisters. If you would like anything else let me know, until then thanks a million for all your help this day.
Gaylene Mihalevich Billington

At the time that I am writing this, the entire world is dealing with a global pandemic. The coronavirus is rapidly spreading to every community and impacting the lives of essentially every person on the planet. While the full impact of Covid-19 will affect each person differently, no one will be left unchanged by this.
I do not wish to perpetuate fear and anxiety, but the reality of the situation is that we are facing a global crisis that will have ramifications for months and likely years to come. With that being said, facing this does not mean that we all must suffer or be miserable in the weeks and months ahead. Even in the face of uncertainty, crisis, and massive changes to our lives, we still have the potential to thrive, to flourish, and to experience the good life. Because the good life is not a result of our circumstances. The good life is controlled by the thoughts we think and the decisions we make.
Today I want to share a few ideas that will help us to continue to thrive in the days ahead as we face this global crisis. These ideas are valid no matter what crisis we are facing, whether it be a job loss, medical diagnosis, divorce, death of a loved one, or a global pandemic. We may not be able to control our circumstances, but there are still many things we do control, and it is those things that have the most impact on our experience in life.
Savor the good things.
In every situation we face, there are always good things to notice and enjoy. Pleasures to experience and happiness to be found. The laughter of children, beautiful sunrises, delicious food, intimacy with our spouse, a garden full of flowers. What brings you pleasure? Where do you find joy? Pursue those things, enjoy them, savor them. They can always be found.
Move your body.
Some people shiver at the word exercise. I’m not asking you to go out and run a marathon (unless you’d like to), but everyone can move their body in a way that is healthy and available to you. When facing a crisis situation our stress levels are high. Moving your body helps to counteract that stress, relieve tension, and bring calm. Find a way to move your body every day during a crisis.
Fuel your body well.
The food and beverages you put in your body are the fuel your body uses to move about the world, to think, to respond, and to survive. If you put in junk you will not function at your best. You are allowed to eat delicious foods. This is not about deprivation. This is about making sure that the majority of the foods you consume are nutritious and fueling you for the hard work of life.
We are not meant to go through life alone. Relationships matter, especially when facing hard times. Find community and support to walk with you through this journey of life. Currently, we are being asked to stay home and practice social distancing, but we still need to remain in community with others. Get creative. Use video calls, text messaging, and other ways to connect through technology and from a distance to keep and build relationships. If you don’t have people to support you in life, reach out and find them.
Be generous and kind.
Helping others helps us feel good. It is scientifically proven. Offer kindness and compassion. Generously give of your time, money, resources, and talents. The less tightly you hold on to your stuff, the more goodness you will experience. Giving and helping make you feel like you have control and power in difficult situations. Find a way to make a difference.
Set and pursue goals.
When crisis comes we often panic. We think that all we can do is struggle to survive and just make it through. But that’s not the truth. We can do so much more than we think. Don’t let a crisis situation keep you from moving forward in life. Figure out something you want to achieve, set a goal, make a plan, and get busy. It will help to distract you from your crisis and it will help you to grow even in the face of adversity.
While we are all at home during the Covid-19 outbreak there is so much potential for achievement and reaching new goals. The plans you had for this year might be out the window with everything going on in the world, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t do something. Set a short term goal that you can accomplish, from your present circumstances at home, in the next couple of weeks or a month. Then get busy.
Avoid numbing activities.
Anything that you have a tendency to overdo when you are feeling uncomfortable emotions or avoiding your circumstances is a numbing activity. Overeating, overdrinking, over-social media-ing, over Netflix-ing, over daydreaming, oversleeping, overthinking. The list could go on. I’m sure you know what you turn to when things get tough and you want to escape. You’ll have lots of opportunities for these activities during a crisis. Find ways to do other things instead. Build routines and habits that help you avoid whatever you overdo and replace it with something healthy instead. Journal your thoughts and emotions instead of avoiding them. Create action plans instead of avoiding difficult choices.
Keep up with routines.
Your brain likes to follow the paths it already knows. When we face times of crisis and everything seems to change, our brains get a little freaked out. Okay, maybe a lot freaked out. Help your brain out and stick to your routines. Even if everything has changed and your old routines are no longer possible, create new routines as quickly as you can and stick with them. The consistency of routines will give your brain some much-needed peace.
There is always something to be grateful for. Make a list of all the things you are grateful for in your life. Write a letter to someone expressing your gratitude for something they have done. Acknowledge the things you have done for yourself. Take time to thank and praise God for His goodness and His presence in your life.
Know that everything is temporary.
This crisis you are experiencing will not last forever. You may not see the end. The end might bring you into a life that looks nothing like the one you had. But, the crisis will not last. You will get through this. And you have the ability to learn something from this crisis. You can choose to let this situation teach you and give you a chance to grow into a stronger, better person. Instead of fighting your crisis, embrace it and look for ways to become a better person because of it.

Elhassan: Damian Lillard could be top-five player in 2018
With a shortage of meaningful basketball being played, the NBA blogosphere has been filled with player ranking lists. Some of which, have caused a stir among some NBA players.
One of the more prominent lists is ESPN’s NBA Rank, which reached its conclusion today as we approach the start of the regular season.
One of ESPN’s NBA insider writers, Amin Elhassan, wrote an article today on their website looking at 10 players who could crack the top-five in five years. Portland’s Damian Lillard was one of those players to crack the list.
Elhassan writes about Lillard:
The reigning rookie of the year is just 23, so expect his game to refine with age. Already a dangerous threat in the pick-and-roll with one of the league’s deadliest step-back jumpers, Lillard must continue to attack the basket and get to the free throw line more often. A big part of his efficiency numbers can be traced to theenormous burden he had to shoulder for the Blazers last season. With improved depth, particularly in the backcourt, the hope is Lillard can conserve more energy and focus on efficiency. Five years from now, he’ll be in the prime of his career with a more developed arsenal, and will be in the running as one of the best point guards in the game.
The list includes Cleveland’s Kyrie Irving, Indiana’s Paul George, the Clippers’ Blake Griffin and New Orleans’ Anthony Davis among others. Elhassan also gave honorable mention to two college players, Kansas’ Andrew Wiggins and Kentucky’s Julius Randle.

GLOVERSVILLE - City resident Doris Clo, 82, is lucky. When she fell while taking out the garbage this winter, she was not hurt.
"I do things now because my husband cannot, because of his balance," Clo said, after attending HealthLink Littauer's Improve Balance & Prevent Falls program at the Fulton County YMCA on Wednesday. "So [I] was getting the garbage can out of the ice, and it came faster than I thought it would, so basically, I fell backward. I did not hurt anything."
The fall was one of the reasons Clo attended the program, along with nearly 30 other seniors and caregivers. Clo has an artificial hip and knee, she said, and her husband, Lou, suffers from neuropathy, which affects balance.

occupational therapy, Thursday.

"I wanted him to come," she said. "When I did fall this winter, it helped to be able to know how to get back up again. So I wanted to learn more, too."
Many seniors who suffer falls don't end up as lucky. According to information provided by Nathan Littauer Hospital at the program, nearly 2 million emergency room visits per year are due to falls.
"I would say 50 percent of folks that made it into a nursing home, did so post-fall," said physical therapist William Oates, Nathan Littauer Hospital's rehabilitation director and one of the presenters at the program.
HealthLink, in cooperation with the Y and the Fulton County Office For Aging, has offered the Improve Balance & Prevent Falls program for about four years now, according to Sue Cridland, Littauer's director of community education.
"[A fall] can be such a life-changing event, so anything we can do to help prevent that is really important," Cridland said.
Physical activity is the most important method seniors can use to prevent falls, Cridland said. For seniors who are frail or unsteady, she recommended an evaluation by a physical therapist before starting any exercise program.
The Y will offer a number of exercise programs in its Spring II session, which begins Monday and runs through June 8. A specific course dedicated to fall prevention, Balance & Stability For Fall Prevention, will be offered Mondays from 10:30 to 11:15 a.m.
"That kind of program that is run here at the Y is wonderful, and the other piece of that, when you have a class, is that you have the whole socialization thing going on, which is also really, really important," Cridland said. "One of the fellows that I just walked out with now that was going to sign up, he says, 'You know, I'm 92 and I just don't get out that much in the winter anymore, so I think this would be good for me.'"
Oates sees patients for rehabilitation after falls, as well as patients who come in looking to proactively avoid falling. He said he likes to focus on awareness of the aging process - slower reaction times, lowered visual coordination and other balance-affecting afflictions - when developing a balanced training regimen for seniors to do at home.
"One of the things I do like to concentrate on with someone who is beginning to have impaired balance is the strength of the ankle," Oates said. "That's the first recovery point. If you're standing up straight and you start to fall backward, the first thing the body does is lift its toes off the ground to try to get you back into a neutral posture."
Environmental factors should also be considered in fall prevention. Margaret Luck, coordinator for the Lifeline program at Littauer and Fulton County coroner, talked about things around the home that can be changed to prevent falls, including keeping walking areas in free of obstacles; installing hand rails in stairways and bathrooms; and rearranging kitchen storage so that items are more easily accessible.
"We can't go up on ladders and be as sturdy as we used to be reaching for things, so it's important that [seniors] look at their home," Luck said.
The Lifeline program itself can be an important way to avoid serious injuries from falls. The program equips seniors' homes with a box and portable sensor button, so that if the senior does suffer a fall, he or she can push the button to alert paramedics.
Littauer has offered the program for 25 years now, and the technology continues to improve. An Auto Alert system was introduced to the program about a year ago. The Auto Alert sensor will detect if a senior does not recover from a fall, and automatically alerts paramedics after 40 seconds, Luck explained.
"It's getting more popular," Luck said. "Time matters. When somebody falls, the longer they're down, the longer it takes to recover, and Lifeline has proven this fact over 25 years, that if they can get help right away to get back up, the recovery time is a lot less."
Clo said she is hoping to put the information provided in the course Wednesday to good use.
"I want to try the strengthening exercises, and I want my husband to try the balancing exercises," she said.

Ciao Lettori! The title of this post is something my family is always saying – “eat, eat, it does you well!”
This post isn’t about Rome necessarily BUT it is about some delicious Italian food (Sicilian specifically) I had today. My Italian Mysterys class traveled to Schenectady to Perecca’s, which has a 100+year old bakery and an eat in dining room. We ordered Arancini, which are like rice balls. Except not really.
The outer shell is bread crumbs, then a shell of rice inside that, then in the middle is this sloppy-joe-esque mix. They’re baked so the outside is crunchy and then covered in tomato sauce. They look like this:
THEY WERE SO GOOD! The dish had a side of escarole, with lots of garlic, which I personally love. So overall, 10 points. Absolute win.
The bakery next door had the cellophane wrapped Easter eggs which my dad ALWAYS bought us for Easter sunday so of course I bought one. The shop he used to buy them at went out of business, so it’s been a while since I’ve seen una uovo di Pasqua di cioccolata (chocolate Easter egg). The chocolate is hollow and inside, there is a little toy. This discovery was easily the best part of my day. So excited to break it open on Easter.
Then we went to this bakery called Villa Italia (also in Schenectady) and they had Sfogliatelle! I almost died. They were fresh out of the oven and crispy, so of course I brought some to bring back to the dorms. If you’re unfamiliar, they look like this:
My dad loves these and always brings them home on special occasions. Today was just a huge trip down memory lane. Lots of nostalgia, especially since I can’t go home for Easter.
Overall, today was a wonderful day. Bonding with classmates and great food. Eating really does you well.
36 days til Roma. Ci vediamo!

I’ve known Peni Jo Renner for several years now (as the 17th-century was such a niche market for a while); so it is with pleasure that I welcome her to The Seventeenth Century Lady to discuss her latest 17th-century historical fiction book, Letters to Kezia!
After reading my first novel, Puritan Witch; The Redemption of Rebecca Eames, most of my readers wanted to know what happened to Rebecca’s son, Daniel. Naturally, I considered writing from Daniel’s POV, but a male perspective can be difficult for me, so I decided to make Mary Case the main character instead.
She’s your typical Puritan minister’s dutiful daughter, resigned to a predictable fate of marrying her father’s assistant minister, although the pair obviously have no true interest in each other. And then she becomes smitten by none other than Daniel Eames as he stands locked in the pillory for thievery. While bringing him his meager rations as he sits in the small Hereford jail, he charms her further. Completely enamored, she helps him escape and sets into motion a chain of events that brings about the conception of her daughter Kezia.
The story is narrated at times by snippets of letters Mary writes to her daughter, who never knew her natural father. Characters from Puritan Witch make their return—not the least of which is Riff, the epitome of undying devotion.
The novel is populated by many real-life characters but also fortified by completely fictional ones, like the good-hearted Absalom Hart. His sorrow-filled past will be revealed in the third book of the series, tentatively titled Cocheco; Raid on Dover.
It is 1693 in Hereford, Connecticut, when Mary Case, the spinster daughter of a Puritan minister, finds herself hopelessly smitten by the roguish thief, Daniel Eames. Betrothed to a man she does not like or love, she is soon compelled to help Daniel escape from jail. Suddenly, she finds herself on the run, not only accused of being Daniel’s accomplice, but also of murder.
The fugitive pair soon finds solace-and a mutual attraction-among the escapee’s Algonquin friends until two men from Daniel’s dark past hunt them down. After Mary is captured and returned home to await trial, a tragedy takes the life of her younger sister, revealing a dark secret Mary’s father has kept for months. But just as Mary learns she is pregnant, she makes a horrifying discovery about Daniel that changes everything and prompts her to develop an unlikely bond with his mother, Rebecca, who soon saves Mary from a shocking fate. It is not until years later that her daughter, Kezia, finally learns the truth about her biological father and family.
Letters to Kezia shares a courageous woman’s journey through a Puritan life and beyond as she struggles with adversity and betrayal, and discovers that loyalty can sometimes mean the difference between life and death.
PENI JO RENNER is the author of the IPPY award-winning novel, Puritan Witch: the Redemption of Rebecca Eames.
Originally from North Dakota, Peni now lives with her husband in Maryland where she is currently researching for the third book in the Puritan Chronicles series.

(The following is an excerpt from a longer work.)
I’ve been in the shower so long my fingers are wrinkled, but I’m too mad to turn off the water. Mixing with my hot tears, it swirls down the drain along with my supposedly happy life.
My stomach hurts as I sob, quiet moans punctuated with wails of anguish as the thought of each new consequence crosses my mind.
“What did I do?” I say over and over rocking back and forth trying anything to comfort myself. I have never felt so wretched, alone, and discarded.
I didn’t take my clothes off when I got in. I just needed to get clean. To cleanse myself of I don’t know what, Shame? Betrayal? None of this makes any sense, except that it’s not fair.
I glance towards the hall. The divorce papers that came earlier are now strewn on the hall floor. I didn’t get past the first page. I dropped them like they were covered with shit. They might as well be, because that’s how I feel, the victim of an ambush. A shitty heartless one.
A gust of cold water gets me moving. I stand up and turn off the tap. I am shaking from more than the cold—I must be in shock. I sit down on the toilet, a big soggy mess. I pull my shirt over my head and kick out of my sweatpants and underwear, tossing them towards the drain. So much for a peaceful day doing whatever I wanted or nothing at all. My stomach hurts like I’ve been sucker-punched, hollow with grief. I’m in the kind of pain that no amount of crying helps, like something horrible is inside me trying to claw its way out. It’s the way you feel when you’ve lost someone near and dear to your heart, someone you love. It’s the feeling of fear in the face of abandonment and treachery.
I leave my wet clothes seeping into the shower drain and stand up. I look at them, but nothing registers. They can sit there for days. I do not care. I walk toward the door and catch my image in the mirror. I check the mirror every day before leaving the house, but now I’m seeing myself differently, and not just because there’s water running down my body. Maybe I’m imaging it, I think as I give myself an honest appraisal.
I think I look fine, except for the red eyes and haunted look. I care about my appearance. Men still look at me at forty-five. I keep in shape and watch what I eat most of the time. It’s just not fair. In this fucked up world, only guys get to have a beer gut, a droopy ass, and a bald head. Men are measured by the size of their wallets and that’s it. A guy can be a complete dick and be downright ugly. If he’s got money, he can have what he wants. There are plenty of women out there who will do just about anything to a guy just to be near his money. Not only that, and they’ll step over anybody to get there. It seems like they’re more interested in successful married men. Is that what’s happening to me? Did some young bitch step over me to get to my husband and his income? A person whose sole purpose is to marry money, and to find someone to take care of them. Their focus is only on themselves, where they can shop and all the people, they can feel superior to, through no effort of their own, aside from giving fantastic blowjobs.
* * *
Two hours later, I’m on the sofa in our living room staring into space. I managed to make some coffee and poured some Bailey’s in it. I usually never drink in the morning, but apparently, things have changed. I am alone. Our big empty house doesn’t help. I feel like it’s going to swallow me up. I’ve got plenty of Baileys and my second drink is coffee-flavored booze. Fuck it anyway, who’s counting? I’m not planning to.
I will be fine as long as I stay off the phone, don’t text, email, or post crazy drunk shit on social media. Once it’s out there, you can’t delete it, it’s permanent, like a divorce. I’ve never felt this betrayed by anything or anyone before. It doesn’t seem possible or real, but it is. I need a couple of days to understand the full extent of the implications of the end of my marriage. My mind is swimming with all of the things that I will have to do and say. I’m not doing any talking or taking any actions until I am ready. The Summons includes a Notice that I have thirty days to respond under Georgia law. I’m going to respond long before that. Right now, my immediate plan is to hide out and think. I need to move my focus away from emotional reactions and begin to think rationally and clearly. One step at a time.
I look around. It seems like every room is crammed full. What about all the stuff? I assume Henry will send for his things. What a fuck. I’m not staying here, waiting for him to make up his mind about his precious golf clubs. They’re in the garage. Maybe I should donate them to the Goodwill. I suck at it, so I hate that fucking game.
I guess I get to sell the house and take care of all the crap we’ve accumulated over twenty years. Why did we need all these things? You don’t notice it piling up until you have to deal with it. If you’ve ever cleaned out a dead relative’s home, you get the picture. Every nook and cranny is stuffed with things no sane person would keep. That day has come for me. Screw it, I’ll just sell everything on Craig’s list and have the junk guys come and haul the rest. It’s lost all meaning for me. Ah shit, I can’t get rid of marital property because of the summons. The few things our sons have here, I’ll send them. I doubt a Judge would punish me for that.
Maybe I’ll just burn Henry’s shit, out in the yard and dance naked around it. That would get the neighbors talking and probably lead to a visit from the police. On second thought, it sounds like a little too much hassle, running away from the cops in my birthday suit.
Fun as that might be, though, I’m too practical to do it. They’re nice things and other people can use them and the charity that sells them can do some good with the proceeds. Besides, being destructive doesn’t seem like the right move just now, not when the last 22 years of my marriage have turned out to be wasted and hollow.
I’m huddled under a robe with a pile of tissues on my lap. I’ve gone from sad to mad and everything in between. Is this how it’s going to be? This sucks for me, but not for Henry. I bet he’s been looking forward to it for months, plotting and planning to screw me over. Now he gets what he wants and doesn’t give a damn about me. I hope he chokes on his own vomit.
I get off the couch with a groan. I still feel shaky and drained, but I’ll be able to keep my feet under me. One thing I know: I’ve cried enough for now. They say divorce is like losing a loved one with five stages of behavior that goes along with it. The first is denial. I’m past that. This shit is real. Second, comes anger. That’s coming on hard. I’ve been betrayed and abandoned. The next stage has to do with bargaining with yourself, blaming yourself for the divorce. I’ll jump right over that one. I didn’t do anything wrong. I refuse to accept fault. I could have had other lovers. Now I wish I had. I could have had an affair—I’m sure my husband did.
Though in a way, Henry seems too smart and methodical. He never seemed distant or complained. We had sex and he seemed to like it. Me too; no fake orgasms to get him off me. I know older women who were relieved when their husbands lost interest, especially the wives whose husbands rode them like rented mules. No foreplay, just rutting. That’s fun sometimes. But I’m sure after forty-odd years it wears on the woman.
Moping around just makes me feel shitty. I have to do something, even if it’s wrong. My grandpa used to say that, and his wisdom is good enough for me.

The Lord of the Rings By J.R.R. Tolkien
The Millenium Edition published in seven hardback volumes in special slipcase
with accompanying CD of Tolkien reading excerpts.
Harper Collins ISBN 0 261 10393 8
Arguably the book of the 20th century, The Lord of the Rings
is now being filmed so here is a chance for all those who have read it and
loved it - particularly all those undergraduates of the 1950s and 1960s,
who regarded it as compulsory cult reading and so many new readers,
to reacquaint or acquaint themselves with this glorious epic story.
Chance to meet the Hobbits, Frodo, Bilbo Baggins, Merry Brandybuck and Pippin;
to meet Gandalf the wizard, slimy Golum, the heroes Strider and Boromir;
and Legolas, Aragorn, the Ents, Treebeard, the Riders of Rohan and all the
epics other unforgettable characters.
Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the land of Mordor where the Shadows lie,
One Ring to Rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
The CD has great historical and literary interest for it comprises readings
from The Lord of the Rings by its author J.R.R. Tolkien in
1952 before he had found a publisher to accept his masterpiece.
Understandably then he does sound a little dispirited as he reads these excerpts
- mainly verses. Without seeming to be uncharitable, because this is an immensely
valuable recording, Tolkien does tend to gabble at times and his diction
is not always clear, proving once again that authors are not always the best
readers of their own works thats why the job is traditionally
left to actors.
Harper Collins tell me that another edition of The Lord of the Rings is imminent
in the Autumn, we will bring you news of that when it is published.
A rating for this well-loved work would be as insolent as it would be superfluous

The Oklahoma State University Division of the Vice President for Research, in partnership with Iron Monk Brewery, is excited to present an opportunity for you, the public, to meet and interact with experts from a wide range of research fields at OSU. Researchers from the sciences, arts and humanities will be joined by Dr. Kenneth Sewell, the Vice President for Research, to have a conversation regarding their work and the impact it has on you and your community. Ample time will be provided for you to interact with the researcher and questions are encouraged in this informal, but informative, setting. We hope you will join us the third Monday of each month to enjoy some of Stillwater’s own local brew while chatting about some of the impactful and interesting research happening here on the OSU campus. Each session will be approximately 20 minutes of open dialogue between Dr. Sewell and the researcher, followed by questions and discussion from the audience. How OSU Veterinary Researchers are Saving the World: Pandemics and Even Scarier Stuff Guest: Dr. Jerry Malayer, Senior Associate Dean for Research in the College of Veterinary Medicine; and Professor and McCasland Chair in the Department of Physiological Sciences In this first installment of OSU Research on Tap since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, Dr. Malayer will discuss a variety of ways that researchers within OSU’s College of Veterinary Medicine are addressing aspects of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19. He will also reveal why it is only natural that this type of research is conducted by veterinary medicine experts, given the inextricable ties between the health of humans, animals, and even the natural environment. Dr. Malayer will also describe some of his own research (the parts he can discuss in public) related to national security.
We look forward to seeing you at the Iron Monk Brewery Taproom, 519 South Husband, on Monday, August 23, at 5:30 pm.

School Bus With Sick Driver Goes on Terrifying Ride
This was no ordinary ride home.
Eleven children riding a school bus in Aitkin County, Minnesota are all okay after a potentially horrifying episode earlier this week when the driver had a medical emergency and could not drive.
A sheriff's deputy first noticed the bus weaving around the roadway before it became even worse. The deputy did what it could to protect cars in the opposite lane avoid getting hit.
The bus, traveling around 40 miles per hour, went into a ditch, but then defied logic by returning onto the roadway, continuing the trip.
A state trooper would eventually put an end to the 14-minute incident by using stop sticks to stop the bus.
The 68-year-old bus driver was taken to the hospital. His condition has not been revealed.
You can see raw video of the ride below.

1998 SAAB 9000 CSE 2.3L turbo from North America
Character, reliability and insane performance even with interstellar mileage
Issues with the climate control blend door stepper motor and thermometer circulation fan. Heat is stuck on, but can be regulated with fan speed (unresolved and fairly challenging in this car).
Engine mounts required replacing. Super common 9000 issue. I used cheap poly on the round transmission and torque arm, decent aftermarket solid rubber on the lower engine mounts (~$175 for parts).
Exhaust leaking in several places. Sawed it off at the resonator with a Sawzall in frustration one night. They always break between the resonator and muffler because of a weird bend around the suspension and cheap construction. I just ordered a 3" JT turbo-back exhaust from Maptun to replace ($550 after exchange).
Water pump is making some noise and leaking intermittently. Purchased an OEM replacement and waiting until it's warmer or total failure -- whichever comes first, to repair ($100 for parts).
Radiator end tank fitting broke off the radiator during inspection, spraying my face with hot coolant to the alarm of nearby friends. They hosed me off, and I purchased hardware store parts to fix ($5 for hardware store parts, $120 for a radiator, which I am not replacing for another two months to win a ghetto repair bet).
Boost control valve (BCV) is beginning to allow spurious overboost. These valves are outrageously expensive -- one of the few truly overpriced items for this car. You can change to the T7 valve for way less money, but you'll need a reflash ($270 for T5 factory replacement part).
Clutch slipping. A month of overboosting due to a flagging BCV was too much for it. Slips intermittently in 3rd, 4th, and 5th on the freeway at full boost.
Output shaft bearings in transmission are noisy. Who knows what I'll do about this. Probably buy a used transmission when I do the clutch ($640 shipped from an out-of-state Saab repair shop).
I'll preface this with the fact I'm 30 years old and owned 27 cars, mostly weird (for the U.S.) European stuff. Furthermore, I've owned 10 Saabs, seven of them 9000s. In college, when I owned a beautiful, babied 1986 951 that sustained itself on my blood, sweat, dignity and bank account, the trusty Saab 9000 was always there. You could pick up high-mileage turbo versions for $1000-1500 all day with a manual transmission. They were easy to fix, always started, drove me to work, saw me home to see family and always got me to the party. It was the cheapest manual, turbocharged car I could get my hands on to daily drive.
So I'm very familiar with these -- when you work on your own cars you develop a special relationship with certain ones. The thing is, I always viewed the 9000 as a sort of "beater" car -- a fast one, granted -- because of the open-differential/front-wheel drive, a suspension design copied from wagons on the Oregon Trail, and not having a "cool" factor around other Euro car people.
This one changed that. When I purchased this car I was about a year into Audi B5 S4 ownership, and the honeymoon was over. After that year of fairly trouble-free dependability (relatively speaking for a B5 S4), it was now in the air more than it was driving. I set up an email alert for 9000 classifieds on Saabnet a few years before, and one day at work a 1998 CSE, which has the Aero engine and suspension, came up ten miles from me for $1400 with two sets of wheels and tires -- and 251,000 miles.
The previous owner loved Saabs and bought it with 106,000 miles. He didn't work on them himself, but he had receipts for tons of major work (head gasket, transmission rebuild, clutch, turbocharger), and he documented down to every oil/wiper/coolant/tire change.
The moment I got into the car I knew this one was different. I always wanted an Aero, but never bought one because of the price premium and the fact that every one I test drove wasn't making nearly factory power. This one did. And then some. I laughed on the way home at the torque this car produced, and I noticed that it handled appreciably better than my other 9000s -- my dad drove it and remarked to a friend and me, "I always liked your 9000s, but they always had such soft handling; not this one."
I've began daily driving it to work 30 minutes+ through dense traffic patterns, using the turbo ruthlessly. From the moment I bought it I viewed it as a disposable car, just like all my other 9000s. After all, the odometer showed it had been to the Moon, and I paid the equivalent of three Audi car payments to own it outright.
Guess what? A month passed. Then another. Then I sold the Audi. Sure, the S4's performance is better. It's a legend. But you know what? Part of what makes a car great is actually being able to drive it. And that's where the Saab wins. Problems in the Audi, which occur often, generally require immediate, brutal and expensive intervention to continue driving it with any confidence. The Saab is akin to stone age technology in comparison with the S4, but from sticking to a certain simplicity through years of developing the platform, they built a car that seems almost indestructible.
The engine (B234R), the car's party piece, is so overbuilt it's currently making nearly 300 ft/lbs of torque despite the interstellar mileage. It's like the 2JZ of four cylinder European engines. It uses a very innovative approach to monitoring knock and combustion efficiency by generating and measuring an ion field through the spark plug when it's not firing, where the name "Trionic" comes from. The car's so good that I've decided to deviate from my general MO and make it both my daily and tuning car. This is despite working a job that finally affords me the option of buying something high performance that's far newer.
I've owned many manner of fast, dynamic, special cars. There's just something about the later 9000 Aero (or 1998 CSE). It's not dynamic. It's front-wheel drive. Traction is an issue -- it spins the tires in third on the freeway when it's cold out. But you know what? It starts and boosts like a banshee every day, even with some minor mechanical problems. Nobody else has one. It's faster than almost anything else in day-to-day driving. And it's just a nice place to be.
What a great car. What a shame Saab went out of business, reduced to building mid 2000s designs in China on repeat. I read somewhere that a chief engineer at Saab said "the 9000 Aero is the best Saab we ever made." It is. The 900 Classic gets all the attention, and it is good -- but where it is a fun, quirky professor, the 9000 Aero is a flawed rock star who puts on a great show every night. Soon all but the very best examples will be dead. Get one if you can.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Is a brow lift (forehead lift) better to raise sagging eyelids than a blepharoplasty?
Browlift Vs Blepharoplasty - Which is Best for Sagging Eyelids?
Doctor Answers 142
Brow Lift Vs. Blepharopasty
Aesthetic plastic surgery of the eyelids can produce a dramatic rejuvenating effect, literally taking years off of a person's appearance. Interestingly, many patients find that following eyelid surgery friends will say 'You look great!', but they usually cannot pinpoint exactly why.
If there is a facial rejuvenation surgery that is over-recommended and often overdone these days, it is without question the browlift. Look no further than the celebrity photo magazines for pictures of stars who look like they have just sat down on a plate of tacks. The goal of aesthetic plastic surgery should be to make a person look better and more youthful, not merely different, and certainly not as though one is perpetually surprised. My goal is to provide my patients with results which appear natural, and an unnatural-appearing brow is a dead giveaway that a person has had facial plastic surgery.
I rarely see a patient that has such significant brow descent that I recommend elevation of the entire brow. However, I frequently see browlift patients for whom conservative elevation of the lateral brow produces a more rested, bright, and even elegant appearance. This is very easily simulated with gentle upward traction on the skin of the lateral forehead - if you feel that this may apply to you then try it in the mirror and the improvement will be quite obvious
A youthful, feminine brow rests above the level of the orbital rim, which is the upper margin of the bony socket in which the eye resides. An aesthetically pleasing brow is somewhat arched laterally, and the lateral end or "tail" of the brow is higher than the medial end. It is quite common for the female brow to assume an essentially flat or horizontal orientation as a person ages.
If the skin and soft tissues lose enough elasticity with age and sun exposure, the lateral brow may even descend to a level below the orbital rim, producing a tired or even 'surly' appearance. The medial brow is relatively fixed in position and in most cases does not descend much, if any. In years past, a browlift surgery required an incision across the top of the head, from ear to ear. This was replaced in the 1990's, for most surgeons, by the endoscopic browlift, which allowed the same procedure to be performed through small incisions just behind the hairline.
Excessive or 'redundant' upper eyelid skin is a very typical aging change that leads people to seek eyelid surgery. In many patients, this surgery can be performed under light sedation with local anesthesia as an outpatient office procedure. In a few cases, protruding fat behind the eyelids is also removed. As with most facial aging changes, no two people present with exactly the same eyelid concerns. Surgical treatment is therefore individualized to the needs of each individual patient.
My approach to upper eyelid surgery is to be conservative with skin excision, and to reserve excision of fat for patients with significant fat excess. In my opinion, aggressive removal of upper eyelid skin and fat is a 'skeletonizing' procedure which risks making eyes appear more deep-set and aged, rather than younger. In fact, in many patients I perform structural fat grafting (using the patient's own fat, from the abdomen or hips) to help restore soft tissue volume around the eyes.
The next time you flip through Vogue or Allure (guys, just grab one at the checkout stand) take a close look at the eyes of the models. In most of them, women in their teens and twenties, you will see only a sliver of the upper eyelid, if it is visible at all. In many, the upper lid is completely obscured by soft tissue fullness between the brow and eyelashes, which I sometimes refer to as the 'brow roll'. Perusing the fashion magazines provides quick confirmation that the youthful upper lid is not a skeletonized upper lid.
A consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with excpetional training and significant experience in performing conservative eyelid surgery and lateral browlifts can help you determine the appropriate surgery for you.
Throughout one's lifetime, the four muscles that...
Throughout one’s lifetime, the four muscles that contribute to eyelid closure tighten and relax millions of times due to actions as slight as blinking to as strong as squinting in the sun. These four muscles are opposed by only one muscle that raises the eyebrows.
In time, this constant “tug of war” between the opposing forces that pull the eyebrows up and down leads to drooping of the brows and wrinkles across the forehead. The first damaging effects of this “tug of war” become apparent as early as the 3rd decade of life, and gradually worsen over time.
As the eyebrows droop, the skin between the eyelashes and the eyebrow that was once stretched smoothly across the eye begins to overlap. For women, this is first noticed as difficulty in applying eyeshadow because the “platform” on the upper lid begins to disappear beneath overhanging skin.
This phenomenon of the skin folding over the eyelid crease (known as hooding) gives the appearance of having too much fullness of the upper eyelids. Countless patients have expressed concern with this apparent excess of eyelid skin.
Classically, they pinch their upper eyelid and say “Doctor, my eyelids make me look tired. I want you to cut this skin out.” In reality, few patients would benefit by having the skin excised (cut out) since many do not truly have excess skin. On careful examination when the eyebrows are raised to their more youthful position, there is actually little to no extra skin on the eyelid.
In fact, removal of upper eyelid skin may pull the eyebrow down even further, exaggerating a tired appearance. In this case, a brow lift is fundamental to achieving an aesthetically pleasing result.
- Return the eyebrows and eyelid skin to a more youthful appearance
- Reduce forehead wrinkles
- Create a rested expression
- Anchor the brow to minimize further descent of the eyebrows
If there truly is excess eyelid skin after restoring the eyebrows to their normal position, then a pinch of skin can be removed to minimize eyelid fullness.
It should be noted that a percentage of the population would, in fact, benefit solely from removal of upper eyelid skin without a brow lift. These people do not have significant sagging of the brow and forehead and tend to fall into two categories:
- They inherited upper eyelid fullness with excess skin, usually apparent by the 20s or 30s
- They are in the 60s, 70s, or older and the skin has lost elasticity or has been stretched from rubbing the eyelids.
Significant excessive upper eyelid skin can interfere with vision. With appropriate documentation and approval, insurance may cover the costs of a functional blepharoplasty to restore vision. Eyelid surgery performed purely for aesthetics or for a condition not severe enough to warrant insurance coverage is considered cosmetic blepharoplasty.
Browlift vs. Blepharoplasty: not always "versus"
Browlift and blepharoplasty (upper) are not mutually exclusive procedures--they can be done in conjunction. In some cases, neither procedure will address your particular problem. It all depends on proper evaluation of the eyelid/brow complex, as well as a detailed discussion of your concerns and your surgeon's aesthetic sense.
In my experience, I think browlifts tend to be overutilized, and can give a surprised/startled look. On the other hand, upper blepharoplasty when performed too aggressively can make you look skeletonized, "operated", and/or unnatural (eg, kenny rogers!).
Make sure you seek a surgeon (facial plastic, plastic, oculoplastic) who is not just experienced doing eyelid/brow procedures, but also has aesthetic ideals that matches yours.
Hope this helps!

Brow lift or Eye lift - which one do I need?
This is a key decision and one that you should consider carefully before proceeding ahead. The fact is that most people with heavy eyelids have a combination of droopy brows and excess eyelid skin. The important thing is to decide whether it is a brow lift or an upper eye lift that gives you the best cosmetic outcome. In some individuals, both procedures may be necessary to get the best possible outcome.
First, let's take a look at the ideal brow position in a woman. The inside corner of the brow begins at the root of the nose, and gently climbs to higher level, reaching its peak typically somewhere half way between the pupil of the eye and the outside corner of the eye, and then dropping down at the temple. While in a woman the brow is ideally above the level of the bone and curves upward on the side, in a man, the brow is typically at the level of the bone and tends to be more horizontal.
Now that we have an idea of the ideal brow position, a rather simple test can be performed to see whether you are a good candidate for a brow lift:
- Stand in front of a mirror and look straight ahead.
- Make sure that you are not intentionally lifting up your brow.
- Place the index and middle fingers of both hands, half way between the brow and the hairline, one aligned with the center of the brow and the other at the outer corner of the brow.
- Gently lift and glide the forehead skin up toward your scalp. Go back and forth a few times, seeing the effect of the simulated brow lift on the shape of your eyes.
- Try turning your head away from the brow, toward your nose, and again glide the forehead skin up toward your scalp, seeing the effect of the lift on the side of your brow.
- If you like the look of your eyes with this maneuver and if the crease of your eye becomes more visible and the eye appears more alert and youthful, then you may be a good candidate for a brow lift.
If your brow is resting in a good position but there seems to be excess fullness and folded skin obscuring the crease of your eye, then you may be a better candidate for an upper eye lift. Results of an upper eye lift are more difficult to simulate than a brow lift. An eyelift can typically improve the excess droopy skin that covers the cease of the upper eyelids and in some people can even rest on the upper eyelashes. Eye lifts do not elevate the brow position, and, in fact, can sometimes slightly lower brow position. Lower blepharoplasty or lower eye lift can improve bagginess of the lower eyelids and the excessive wrinkling that some of us get on the skin of the lower eyelids.
The truth is that we have been doing too many brow lifts...
The truth is that we have been doing too many brow lifts. If you look at beautiful young models, most of them have low brows! Raising the brows in many women just makes them look different, not younger.
So, you have to make the right diagnosis. If the eyebrow is at the level of the bone above the eye, the patient does not need a brow lift. I just do an upper blepharoplasty which mostly consists of removing redundant skin. The inside of the eyebrow almost never needs to be raised.
So, if a patient's brows are below the level of the bone, then I perform a lateral or outer brow lift to gently raise and arch the brow. This is done with minimal scarring and a blepharoplasty is done at the same time.
It must also be said that it is a big mistake to do a blepharoplasty alone in a patient who really needs a brow lift because then, you will be dragging the brows further down.
Blepharoplasty is for sagging eyelids, Brow Lift is for sagging brow
If your eyebrow is about 1 centimeter (about 1/2 inch) higher than the bone above your eyelid at the high point of the arch of the eyebrow, then your brow is in a normal position and any upper eyelid excess is best treated with a blepharoplasty.
If the eyebrow is at or below the bone then you have brow ptosis and may need a brow lift.
Most commonly, if you have brow ptosis, you will also have excess eyelid skin and both a brow lift and blepharoplasty may be required-often in stages-usually the blepahroplasty first and the brow lift later.
Rarely, only a brow lift is needed if brow ptosis is severe and the eyelid skin is not excessive.
The blepharoplasty is a simpler operation with a well hidden scar and most plastic surgeons do the blepharoplasty first and find that that is all that is needed.
Males normally have a lower brow-oten the brow is positioned right at the level of the bone obove the eye-thus blepahroplasty is usually done first in males as the scarring caused by a brow lift is more difficult to conceal in males.
Brow lift or blepharoplsty to treat the saging upper lid
If you compare the upper eyelid to a curtain, the brow is the rod from which it hangs. Therefore the brow position will affect the eyelid and vice-versa.
When people have too much skin on their upper lids they will keep their brows up to be able to see better or even to look better. Hand someone a mirror. When they bring it in fron of their face the eyebrows move up automatically. If one operates on the eyelids to correct the upper lid excess, the brow will assume a lower position which could be unattractive.
Therefore when I see a patient for Blepharoplasty who is likely to have that problem after surgery, I will suggest a brow lift at the same time. There are time when I have refused to do a Blepharoplasty in a patient whom I thought needed a brow lift at the same time and they didn't want or couldn't do it. A brow lift alone can improve the condition of the upper lids but it would only work in mild cases of upper lid excess.
When you are being evaluated for upper eyelid...
When you are being evaluated for upper eyelid improvement, it is imperative that your surgeon make the correct diagnosis.
Excess upper lid skin either comes from the eyelid, too low of a brow, or both. If your eyebrows are too low, manual repositioning is performed. If you lose all the excess skin, then you only need a browlift. If you still have extra eyelid skin after pushing your eyebrows back into a youthful position, then you need both a browlift and a blepharoplasty.
Normal position for a female brow is roughly one centimeter above the upper bony margin of the orbit, with the peak at the margin between the middle and outer third of the eyebrow. A male eyebrow is ideally situated at the upper bony margin of the orbit. If the brow is already in this position during the physical exam and there is still excess skin on the upper lid, then a blepharoplasty is all that is needed.
How to rejuvenate heaviness in the upper eyelids
In order to answer this question, one has to know if the patients eye brows are
- brows currently droopy?
- patient male or female?
- where the brows always heavy or is this change new?
- In youth, did the patient like their eye brow position?
- Does the patient have a problem with dry eyes
In order to answer many of these questions, my patients are instructed to bring in photos of themselves from their 20's and each decade up until the age at which they present. This helps me understand the evolution of their aging eye area.
Yes, heaviness in the eye brows contributes to heaviness in the upper eyelids as it tends to push down excess brow skin over the eye lids.
In male patients who always had heaviness in their eye brows, the most natural approach is simply an upper eye lift. This avoids an unnatural feminized appearance which can result from lifting the brows in men especially if overdone.
In female patients, if their eye brows are heavy but have not changed in position, I tend to not lift the brows if they liked where their brows were positioned in youth. An upper eye lift alone is sufficient to rejuvenate the eyes. If there is a significant change in their brows, then I will recommend an upper eye lift and brow lift.
Caution: I will try to avoid performing a brow lift and eye lift in someone who has a problem with dry eyes as this can accentuate the problem. Patients are certainly warned.
Brow Lift vs Upper Blepharoplasty
Brow Lift vs Upper Blepharoplasty
An upper blepharoplasty and a brow lift achieve slightly different things.Sometimes they are used in combination.An upper blepharoplasty removes the excess skin and typically a small fat pad that makes your upper eyelid look heavy and gives you a tired look.A brow lift can lift a little of this excess skin, but the goal of a brow lift is to put the brow back into a more appropriate position if it has dropped.Your brow should be positioned at about the orbital rim (the bone you feel just below your brow).If it has fallen below that, we typically perform a brow lift to raise the brow.Many times the excess skin of the upper eyelid should be removed as well as the medial fat pad for maximal results. You should see a board certified plastic surgeon in consultation to determine which of these procedures is best for your face.

Jane writes and directs theatre. Her most recent production, an adaptation of "A Round-Heeled Woman", which she also directed, recently ran at London's Aldwych Theatre.
A ROUND-HEELED WOMAN
Jane's stage play, based on Jane Juska bestseller, starred Sharon Gless (Cagney and Lacey, Queer As Folk, Burn Notice). Jane directed her adaptation at The Gablestage Theatre in Miami, December 2010, The Riverside Studios, Hammersmith, October 2011. The production then transferred to the Aldwych theatre in London’s West End.
“Jane Prowse's stage adaptation is outrageously funny. Sections of the audience didn't know whether to laugh or scream.” Daily Mail
“Frank, feisty and funny, she takes us with her on Juska's extraordinary journey, and ensures we're gunning for her every inch of the way.” Mail on Sunday
“An adaptation of Juska's bestselling memoir that sparkles with wit and wisdom.” The London Magazine
“The smartly crafted script conveys the hilarity and cruelty of Jane’s carnal ventures with ingenious good taste and at one stage Gless performs a solo, fully-clothed orgasm to rival Meg Ryan’s in When Harry Met Sally... this is a captivating evening.” Daily Express
“Jane Prowse has adapted the memoir with skill, as well as directing a sparky production... A Round-Heeled Woman proves an unexpectedly uplifting tonic.” Daily Telegraph
“Skilfully adapted for stage by writer and director Jane Prowse. With sharp, frequently explicit dialogue and larger-than-life characters, the production... portrays an older woman's sexuality in a way that is rarely seen on stage or screen. At times uncompromisingly graphic, it’s also refreshingly honest and very funny.”
UP ON THE ROOF
Also for theatre, Jane co-wrote and directed Up On The Roof, which received three Olivier Award nominations, including Best Musical.
“Up on the Roof is a remarkable achievement. Always funny, often moving and superbly performed throughout, the play boasts an extraordinarily perceptive script and director/co-writer Jane Prowse has crafted near perfect performances from the five strong cast. This is a truly brilliant production.”
Julian Newby - ITV
“Memories are made of this”Time Out
“The brightest light entertainment I've seen this year” City Limits
“The surprise musical charmer of the year” Jack Tinker - Daily Mail
Spell-binding theatre ....If you can get a ticket, go - the show is funny, thought provoking and just what the West End needs” Stepping Out Magazine
A LITTLE LIKE DROWNING
By Anthony Minghella, directed by Jane Prowse.
“Directed by Jane Prowse, it is probably one of the best things Druid has presented. The acting is virtually faultless.” Irish Sunday Press
“The credit for its success must go to Jane Prowse. Her production is beautifully modulated and wonderfully well judged.” Irish Times
UP ON THE ROOF
Co-produced film co-written with Simon Moore for Granada Film/ Rank. Prods: Jane Prowse, Pippa Cross and Brian Eastman.

If You Permit Big Enough
Lies Long Enough...
religious and political right-wing has learned that if you repeat lies over
and over, eventually people will believe them and the mainstream media will
repeat the lies as if they are just as respectable as the truth. Especially
when the opposition is too afraid to call them lies.
How many times do we hear the lie repeated even in "the paper of record,"
The New York Times, which reported otherwise at the time, that Saddam
Hussein kicked the UN weapons inspectors out of Iraq?
How many times do we hear one of the Bush administration's biggest lies
repeated: "Everyone thought Iraq had WMD's." The UN weapons inspectors
didn't. Former inspector Scott Ridder didn't. The whole anti-war movement
How much repetition will it take before we believe one of the latest
Bush lies: "No one anticipated the breach of the levies."
Is it only Al Franken who'll label them Lies and the Lying Liars Who
Tell Them? Is the best the right-wing can do to someone who labels right-wing
lies lies to say that they're just as radical as -- horror of horrors
-- Michael Moore?
They know it works and they know that most liberals are too scared to
say so. When a Democrat does come close, the right-wing knows how easy
it is to scare Democratic leadership right back into Republican-lite.
One of the most persistent liars is critiqued in the Winter 2005 edition
of the Southern Poverty Law Center's always hard-hitting investigative
journal, Intelligence Report. He's the junk researcher whose lies about
LGBT people are repeated ad nauseam, but effectively, by right-winger
preachers and politicians looking for cover to cloak their obsessive prejudices
against LGBT people.
Two articles, "The Fabulist" and "Garbage In Garage Out," take on professionally
discredited right-wing darling Paul Cameron. It's not the first national
organ to expose the 66 year old chairman of the Family Research Institute,
who has had to pay off publishers to have dozens of discredited "studies"
in vanity journals with no peer review processes such as Psychological
The fact that he lies is not only worth repeating but demands repetition
to counter his on-going drumbeat of deceptions. We must remind everyone
regularly that Cameron, as the New Republic reported on October 3, 1994,
"is the architect of unreliable 'surveys' that purport to show strains
of violence and depravity in gay life." Otherwise Cameron's "professional
sham" will become mainstream opinion.
Thrown out of both the American Psychological Association and the American
Sociological Association for misrepresenting his findings, Cameron's gory
pseudo-statistics on gay sexual activity and death rates are still popular.
It doesn't matter to the bigoted that the American Sociological Association
determined: "Dr. Cameron has consistently misinterpreted and misrepresented
sociological research on sexuality, homosexuality, and lesbianism."
You can assume that if you hear any statistics that contribute to the
oppression of LGBT people, even from less suspect sources, they've come
originally from the pseudo-science of Paul Cameron. His latest claim is
that gay sex is more dangerous than smoking. So, expect to hear that mantra
from the religious right.
Dr. John Whiffen, the chair of the board of the right-wing National
Physicians Center for Family Resources, already has no moral compunctions
with repeating Cameron's lies. Intelligence Report quotes Whiffen: "It's
fairly well-accepted that smoking is not a good idea. It takes seven years
off your life. It appears that male homosexuality takes more than that
off your life."
Science is prejudiced, the right-wing says, but not Paul Cameron, because
he says what the right-wing wants to hear. And the right-wing is so convinced
of its religious and moral superiority that it has no interest in anything
other than what it wants to hear. President Bush isn't alone in his rejection
of any facts that don't support his ideology.
Coupled with the idea that it's okay to cheat and steal from the devil,
lying is often a first response from the religious and political right-wing.
It's often second nature.
While the world watched, Pat Robertson told his Christian Broadcasting
Network audience on Monday, August 22, 2005: "You know, I don't know about
this doctrine of assassination, but if he [Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez
who's standing against US imperialism in Venezuelan oil fields] thinks
we're trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead
and do it."
On the following Wednesday his first reaction to mounting criticism
was simply to lie about the whole thing. He was -- he thought he could
get away with saying -- "misinterpreted." He blamed someone else. It was
the fault of the Associated Prress, even though his statement was recorded
on his own 700 Club.
"I said our special forces should, quote 'take him out,' and 'take him
out' can be a number of things, including kidnapping," Robertson lied,
sporting that smile that charms the millions of supporters who rely on
his distribution network for the religious fix that makes them feel they're
on the side of the angels.
But Robertson couldn't sustain this deception in the name of his god
for long. There were too many people who knew what he had said, and who
refused to be silent. They may have covered up past offensive statements,
but he was caught. After another day of criticism, on August 25, Robertson
apologized, admitting he had said it but not apologizing for the fact
that he had then lied to the country: "Is it right to call for assassination?
No, and I apologize for that statement," Robertson said.
Politically, right-wing Republicans were elected to government office
believing government is evil, the cause of our problems, not a means of
helping US citizens. We need, right-wing operative Grover Norquist said,
"to get it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub."
From this group we'd expect lies, deception, cheating, and all sorts
of lobbying evils. They feel justified as if they're fighting a greater
But this can only happen because people enable it. They refuse to call
these lies because that's not a nice thing to say and it might offend
the liars themselves. Enablers allow even big lies to become believable

Date: December 16 2012
AS AUSTRALIA'S reinstated pace attack showed signs it has regained its menace, Sri Lanka's coach conceded its seamers did, as expected, struggle to curtail Australia's batsmen.
The bowler with the most to prove coming into the Hobart Test, Ben Hilfenhaus, recovered from an underwhelming initial two-over spell to claim the wicket of inexperienced opener Dimuth Karunaratne. Within 20 overs Australia had another three Sri Lankan scalps, with the vital wickets of Kumar Sangakkara and captain Mahela Jayawardene claimed respectively by Peter Siddle and Shane Watson.
The latter, a well-directed delivery that trapped Jayawardene in front, emphasised why Australia declined to play Watson in the series against South Africa until it was confident he was fit to bowl.
Australia's ability to claim three wickets within 13 overs, and then Thilan Samaraweera's in the last over of the day, contrasted greatly with the experience of Sri Lanka's bowlers. The visitors were unable to stymie Australia's partnerships, with four of the home team's six partnerships easily passing 50.
''We haven't got the kind of attack that just really blows batsmen away,'' Sri Lanka coach Graham Ford lamented. ''We've got to set our processes and work hard. Obviously Mahela is pretty sharp tactically and tries to work on plans, but with the kind of game-plan and that kind of attack it sometimes takes a little longer to happen.
''Obviously we wanted to try and break partnerships and get perhaps a couple of wickets in a row quickly.''
Sri Lanka's highly rated spinner, Rangana Herath, was used in only two spells, due to conditions the Sri Lankans believed were not conducive to his left-arm spin.
The main solace Ford took in his team's bowling innings was the performance of Shaminda Eranga. The 26-year-old removed Australia captain Michael Clarke early and often nudged 140km/h, which made him conspicuously faster than fellow seamers Nuwan Kulasekera, Chanaka Welegedara and all-rounder Angelo Mathews.
''He showed good pace. He was perhaps a bit nervous at the start but settled in and bowled in some very good areas. I'm excited to see how he's come through.
''Even though we only managed to get five wickets, he's given us something to be positive about.''
Welegedara was Sri Lanka's leading wicket taker but was flayed for five runs an over. Ford believed the Australians targeted him because he had not played first-class cricket since March due to injury.
''He never really got a chance to settle,'' Ford said. ''The Australian batsmen smartly put him under pressure and certainly didn't let him get away with anything loose. It wasn't that easy for him to suddenly just bounce back and play Test cricket after a long lay-off and really hit his straps straight away.''
Ford also conceded his team had been caught unaware by Michael Clarke's decision to declare at 5-450 which allowed Australia to bowl seven overs at Sri Lanka before tea.
''Fortunately we got through that period but we could understand the thinking behind it,'' he said.
''We had a mindset that they might have tried to get 500.''

What are Gas Logs?
If you’ve always wanted that cozy glow of a fire but not the hassle of a wood-burning fireplace, a gas log fireplace may be right for you. Gas logs offer all the ambience and warmth of a real, wood-burning fire without the mess and maintenance. Although they look like real wood, gas logs are usually made of ceramic, which enables them to withstand high temperatures. They can be fashioned to look like virtually any kind of wood, from handsome oak to rustic sassafras to beachy driftwood. We’ll discuss how gas logs work and cover the two types of gas log sets available to help you better understand your options before making a purchase decision.
Why are these logs a good choice for the home?
There are many benefits of using a gas log fireplace as opposed to a real wood-burning fireplace. Among them include:
- Less maintenance and mess – With gas logs, there’s no need to hire a chimney sweep to keep your chimney clean. You also don’t have to worry about keeping the hearth free of dust and soot, and perhaps best of all? There’s no need to chop wood!
- Safer – Because there is no open flame, gas fireplaces are much safer to operate than their wood-burning counterparts.
- Warmer – Gas fireplace logs produce more heat than standard fireplaces while retaining more heat, making them more efficient than standard wood-burning fireplaces.
How do gas logs work?
Gas logs are available in two different fuel types: liquid propane and natural gas. Liquid propane gas logs burn at a much hotter temperature than natural gas logs but require a liquid propane tank to operate. Natural gas logs, on the other hand, work with a natural gas line, making them an option for many homeowners who already rely on natural gas appliances.
There are two different styles of gas logs: vented and ventless. The type of logs you’ll need depends on several factors, including appearance, efficiency and whether or not you have an existing fireplace.
Vented gas logs
When it comes to a realistic looking fire, vented gas logs are your best bet. They deliver large, yellow flames that resemble exactly what you’d see in a wood-burning fireplace without all the hassle and mess. Additionally, vented gas logs can be installed in an existing fireplace, making it easy for those who want to make the switch from a traditional, burning wood.
Just like a wood-burning fireplace, vented gas logs create carbon monoxide — therefore, they must operate with an open chimney or flue damper to properly exhaust the fumes. The downside of this is that most of the heat escapes, making these types of gas fireplace logs not as efficient as their ventless counterparts. In addition, vented gas logs require more fuel to operate than vent-free gas logs, so if you’re looking to save energy, they may not be the best option for you.
Pros: Vented gas logs look more realistic than ventless logs, making them ideal for those who value ambience.
Cons: Vented gas logs are less efficient than ventless logs and require more fuel to operate.
Ventless gas logs
While ventless gas logs are typically more expensive than vented gas logs, they distribute heat more efficiently throughout the room. Because they do not rely on vents to operate, vent-free logs are much better at keeping heat where it belongs: Inside your home. They also don’t use as much fuel as vented gas logs.
Ventless gas logs do not require a functioning chimney for installation, making them ideal for that old firebox you’re not sure what to do with or newly constructed homes. All you need is a gas line and you’re good to go.
The downside of ventless gas logs? They don’t look as pretty as vented logs, but this may not be an issue if you value efficiency over appearance. Also, if your room is well-sealed and insulated, moisture can build up and create condensation — although a little bit of humidity may be ideal if you live in a dry area!
The last thing to keep in mind about ventless gas logs is that they cannot be installed in a bedroom unless they’re 10,000 BTUs or less. If you’re looking to add heat to your bedroom, consider a ventless heater instead.
Pros: Ventless gas logs are more efficient than vented gas logs and use less fuel. They also do not require a functioning chimney to operate.
Cons: Ventless gas logs do not look as good as vented gas logs.
How to install gas logs
To install gas logs, a gas fireplace system must be set up by a qualified gas equipment professional. Once that’s complete, you can install your gas logs yourself by following the included step-by-step instructions. Make sure you wear gloves while handling the logs, as they can cause skin irritation.
All of the gas logs we carry here at Total Home Supply come with their own specific set of instructions. Be sure to follow all instructions carefully to keep yourself and your home safe. If you have any questions regarding our gas logs or other heating products, don’t hesitate to contact us. We’re ready to help put you on the path to a warmer, cozier home.

The Villa Times. 25/10/05
Phillips is worried by our home form and wants to see improvements: 'It's generally the home form which sees you through a season, but we've been disappointing. There have been too many times we've sent supporters home disappointed. That's something we've got to address and I'm sure the manager will try and do something about it.'
Latest defender to be linked to Villa is Fulham's Zat Knight. The defender, who has played for England youth teams, has had several arguments with his manager Chris Coleman and is said to be on a final warning. Villa are keeping an eye on the situation in case he is transfer listed.
Huth is also being constantly linked to a January transfer window move with one report suggesting the deal had already been done. (Don't believe every report you read!) The suggestion is Huth now realises unless he gets some first team action, he won't be in contention for next summers World Cup to be held in his home country of Germany.
Well, the sack race seems to be well and truly on and the odds for O'Leary to be first have tumbled from 16/1 a couple of weeks ago to 6/1 now. Villa only have 2 wins in 8 and haven't recorded back to back wins in 33 attempts.
Mellberg said we let Wigan off the hook: 'We definitely have to improve. I really felt we could get a good run going after the Birmingham win and we started well and played well in the first half. Playing like we did today, we used to win all our home games but it can happen when you are the bottom half of the table and you have to work really hard to get wins and have a bit of luck.'
Bakke has told O'Leary he is happy to be the holding midfielder because Davis is too good to stop. On Wigan he said 'It was the first game I've played with 'Davo'. He's everywhere. He's up and down a lot and I had to sit a lot of the time in front of the back four. When you play with a player like Davo, you just have to let him do what he's good at.'
However O'Leary says Bakke is best forward as well: 'He is good at getting in the box because he is tall and can get headers. Eirik is like Jonathan Woodgate in that what he needs is runs of games and to stay clear of injuries.'
Moore is after more starts and says it is great to have fellow FA Youth Cup winning team mates Steve Davis and Liam Ridgewell playing with him because they understand each other on and off the field. Including Peter Whittingham (currently on loan at Derby) he says: 'Hopefully we can be the spine of the Villa first team for years ahead because we all want to improve'.
Aaron Hughes says Steven Davis could be a strong contender for the PFA Young Player Of The Year.
Aston Villa defender Aaron Hughes has suffered a recurrence of his hernia problem. The pitch is again being cited as the problem and it will be re-laid in the summer at a cost of £700 000. Lets hope it doesn't cost us more injuries this season?
Thought for the day: Blessed are those who hunger and thirst, for they are sticking to their diets.

D8 Monitoring & assessment
Specifications and standardised methods for monitoring and assessment
The chemical monitoring and measurement of contaminants in the marine environment depends on the availability of protocols for carrying out sampling, sample extraction, and instrumental analysis. Quality control and the testing of proficiency are integral parts of the analytical process.
Guidance documents have been developed within the Water Framework Directive (WFD) implementation strategy to support chemical monitoring:
Standardised methods for the analysis of most WFD priority substances are available on the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) website:
Commission Directive [2009/90/EC] provides technical specifications that set data quality requirements for the chemical analysis and monitoring of water status. The availability of proficiency-testing schemes, such as Quasimeme and those available through the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), is crucial for ensuring the quality of analytical data.
In addition to the chemical analysis of contaminants, the quantification of their biological effects provides information on the risk they pose to the marine environment.
For other substances, such as WFD river-basin-specific substances or marine-specific contaminants, analytical procedures are available through the Regional Sea Conventions and the scientific literature.
Guidance is also provided by RSC and other international bodies:

FDA clears study of Neuralstem spinal cord therapy
Adult stem cell developer Neuralstem Inc. said Monday the Food and Drug Administration approved the company's plan for a small, early-stage study of its treatment for spinal cord injury.
The company plans to enroll up to eight patients with a type of spinal cord injury that causes complete paralysis.
All patients in the study will receive six injections of stem cells, followed by physical therapy and drugs to prevent the body from rejecting the stem cells.
Neuralstem is studying several therapeutic uses of adult stem cells. The company completed phase I testing of a treatment for Lou Gehrig's disease in August.
Shares of Neuralstem Inc. rose 5 cents, or 4 percent, to close at $1.29.

Nandigram, April 5 : West Bengal police on Saturday arrested two anti-land acquisition forum supporters for allegedly carrying pistols while traveling through the CPI-M stronghold of Khejuri that is near Nandigram.
Angry women members of Bhoomi Ucched Pratirodh Committee (BUPC) blockaded Khejuri police station to protest against the arrest of their members.
"The women blockaded the police station shortly after the arrests," said Superintendent of Police S Panda.
District's prominent Trinamul Congress leader and Egra MLA Sisir Adhikari alleged that the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) cadres had planted the arms in their pockets.
"The arrests were part of a plan to harrass villagers going from Nandigram to Khejuri," Adhikari said.
Incidentally, four BUPC supporters were also arrested last night for their alleged involvement in arson at Nandigram last year.

Yeah I got Google Chrome. Yeah it's fast. Yeah it's slick. Yes it's better than Safari. But it's not enough.
1. It doesn't even support Google Notebook. What the hell were they thinking? Why release a new browser without Firefox's killer Google App? Makes no sense.
2. I can't change the color of the browser. It defies all of my Windows thematic settings, and I hate that color blue. It reminds me of the idiot defaults of IE.
3. No smart text stuff for Typepad. Various tabs and such don't show up.
4. No support for del.icio.us plug-in.
In these ways it is only marginally better than Safari. But it is fast and everything works. Still, I'm sticking with Firefox 3.
