Something very triggering happened to me on fb...I knew better
than to post my view on religion where a nutcase...religious one
was on! Bad move! She is mutual friends with someone I thought was
my friend who know I see kinda of being twofaced! It was about
abuse in the bible...how women are called whores...who I believe
are just victims of sex abuse and gays as well as also being
victims... Well...she told me all these phds and professional
people who tell kids that their parents are abusing them, who
meddle in innocent partents lives are the ones to blame and
basically told me that since I am not god, I have no right to judge
the bible. Ist off she has little education, and is not very
smart...not to be rude, but she lives off the system and has five
kids... Our mutual friend...who is suppose to be my friend
too...has sinced starting ignoring me...she is the most racist,
most hateful person I met and gives her opinion on everything but
clams up now?

that this happened you, bfgirl!
Religion is such a
touchy subject. I am baptized Christian, but I have not gone to
church for a long time. I always felt like I was being judged.
Especially when I was going thru my divorce.
There were some
ladies that did not agree that I was going thru with the divorce,
because my ex-h was asking for reconciliation. I said I could work
on forgiveness eventually, but I refused to go back to him. He had
tried killing me twice, I was not going to give him another
These ladies said
I was "going against God" because I was not wanting to "restore my
First of all, he
left me. And then he got together with another woman. I guess he
wanted me back when things didn't work out with her? These ladies
said nothing about his adultery...which by the way, according to
the Bible is also a sin, but yet I am the one they are putting
judgment on? They had the nerve to say that I would be the one who
commits adultery, even if I re-marry, because my ex-h and I took
vows to be married for life, and I would be "cheating on him" if I
ever went with another man. What?!!
I was tempted to
ask them, if they think he's so great, how about they take him? And
then they could get the mess beaten out of them, and yelled and
screamed at every day, and see him having a temper whenever he did
not get his way.
So I just look at
it this way, people are going to say whatever they want, it doesn't
mean I have to agree, it doesn't mean I have to change the way I
see things, and it doesn't mean I have to let what they say affect
me. I was really bothered by it all for quite a while. But then,
they did not have to walk in my shoes, so they really don't have a
right to say what they think is best for me.

Maybe get
healthier friends and friends of friends? That lady sounds like she
is not very openminded and I don't see where she benefits or add to
your life. The friend that you know the nutjob through sounds like
someone that isn't benefiting or adding to your life
It sounds like you
are reaching out for intelligent, open minded discussions. Based on
this post, it sounds like you are trying to make chocolate milk by
squeezing lemons. Unless you are sharing something that you know
you have in common with either of these ladies, I wouldn't share it
with them. Unless you are seeking out conflict or drama, which they
seem to provide in abundance to anyone who is different than they
There are as many
bibles as their are religions and as many interpretations of each
bible as their are religious leaders and idependent
Maybe reach out to
groups where open mindedness is common. Maybe a philosophy group?
or religious tolerance group? or college students?
There is probably
forums for this type of discussion online too.

Chinadoll, I am so sorry. I been around people like you have, what
church did you used to attend, if you mind me asking? These people
really are abusive and I am glad you GOT AWAY! I think it is not
healthy for me to talk to these people, so much that I had deleted
them this morning, was not going to do that but I seen them talking
bout "oh we know how has real issues on here! Haha!" I am who they
meant cause i am very open about talking bout my abuse on fb...for
many reasons and I know its not commonly done but I feel its my
chance to have a voice, to address the bullies who hurt me in
school and others to an extent...I can only say so much, too much
is probably not a good idea. My one former friend was someone I
barely knew but who frieWhnded me and and we starting to talk alot
bout abuse and the church...seemed we had ALOT in common, she was
pretty much in agreement with me on things but after a hour of
talking with her, this other side of her came out...she started
telling me horrible things bout her friends and enemies, things I
should not have known! I have to wonder what her motives were or
think that maybe she is just a hateful angry person who feels a
need to trash people...for four hours I sat kinda of trapped
listening to who was a whore, who was doing who and what not...It
was kinda of hard to leave, not that i enjoyed it, but I just felt
kinda of trapped, nervous, laughed and did not say much else, I
really had no idea what to do...I know... i know! Her and i had a
mutual friend who is into a very weird kinda of church, she is not
wrapped too tight...she told me that I was not GOD and had no right
to say that the bible abused people, got angry and said it was
nosey people who call cps who were the problem and all these PHDs
who were making problems were there weren't any... anyhow...I seen
then laughing bout me on fb...eliminated them both off my list. now
the one friend who I did actually meet for lunch is VERY
vindicative. I think she lies alot too and she is very very
verbal...she knows that I know all the shit she told me, so afraid
she will now start trouble and say i said these things... I don't
want drama but I do not want trouble and lies to be spread bout
me..she also knows about my issues, alot cause we shared a very
common story of abuse...:( This town is not huge, everyone is kinda
of related to someone there and things get around fast. I just
trust too soon the wrong people and I KNEW better! i did...but I
got sucked in, and I got comfortable maybe. Chinadoll, what is
comes down to is that we have to choose not to allow people like
this to hurt us, maybe the reason why they do is because something
in the back of minds is uncertain, maybe deep down we are scared
that we are wrong...not saying we are, but what I had learned in
the past is that if something hurts me alot, maybe there is some
truth and maybe not too, I am where you are, stuck with you
friend... one reason why I love to come here, so many open minded
people, yes battles happen, but overall it is a nice place cause
you can have your say and be sure it is ok, even if others do not
agree, most of the time no one will call you a nutcase, most
anyhow! I am glad to hear from you Chinadoll, your one of the few
people who actually talk to me on here, so thank you!

Mydas, no religious or spiritual guides what not for me, i am done
with that lie in my life...want to wash my hands of it...but I know
you mean well bout it too. I feel there are very few people in this
world who i can connect with and feel safe with...very very few. I
guess some would say that I am closed minded but I say it is cause
I am a realist and that I had enough of pretending there are fairys
in the sky who want to save me ungrateful ass... nope, just don't
buy it, not angry at god or whoever else is up there, just do not
care anymore. done with it all. my problem is that I don't fit into
our society, I am not in denial bout my abuse, like most people who
go on and act and pretend all is well to get the family money, I do
not go around being the good volunteer and hoping someone will pat
me on the back and hand me a brownie. I am just sick of people and
their bs and their lies to me and themselves...that is how i
honestly feel, I am sorry, I know I prolly offended every single
person here, i honestly do not mean any harm, I don't ...its just
my thoughts, my feelings and its hard to swallow bs. i have to sit
by everyday and hear how god has saved me, or I am renewed and I am
new person and i have something you don't have and blah blah
blah... well I tried god, and he ignored me, so its must be ME,
right? I am just soooo done with it all.

have one friend who is pretty much ok in my book, she is agnostic
like me, and we can talk bout feeling lost, being prescuated and
that we both did try but it never worked for us...I am glad she is
in my life, she is really well off which kinda of sucks, always has
money and I am always broke, so we eat at panera and places like
that...I am trying hard not to judge her, its not her fault she has
money...and she has been a real true friend. I have the other
friend who I ditched and then went back too...we have a kinda of
rocky friendship, she is a roman catholic who has some very strange
ideas, I told her that I did not want to talk religion and she said
that is part of her and I had to accept that bout her and that
faith to her means much and she is going to go there from time to
time, so I kinda said ok...see i try to understand others and be
accepting! Never said I would like it, but i do! Just the two of
them and some people who talk to me on fb who seem ok, just talk to
them on fb and nothing else...now after what had happened, I am not
sure if i want to even meet anyone, cause I honestly did not see
that coming, hit me like a ton of bricks.

the meantime, my child is very sick with asthma and maybe streph or
mono, we have to wait for tests to come back, she has always had
this, It makes me a basketcase, makes me angry, I hate when she is
sick, makes me cry.... I hope i did not offend anyone, I am good at
that sometimes so just be warned that I mean nothing personal to
hurt anyone, I am just down beaten, worn out and ready for the
pasture maybe...lol! I appreciate you guys posting, I do not feel
so lonely anymore...so thank you!

sometimes wonder, is it obvious i was abused and will i ever fully
heal or will i always be on self help boards looking for help,
encouragement? I hope not. But i think that some things in a person
are just broken and can't be fixed or healed, not all of it, I feel
like a defect, sorry to have my pity party so much on here today,
yes I am having one...

Just to start off,
no offense is meant by my post here. I find this subject
Again, China I
admire you for integrating good sense and spirituality with your
Christian faith.
Chelonia made good
BFG, sorry to hear
that your child is suffering. I hear you about posting - someday I
would like to be healthy enough to leave these posts. However, I've
been posting for about a year and I must say it has helped me sort
through a lot of issues.
I had just read an
interview with Anne Rice. She was raised Catholic, became agnostic,
went back, and left again. This time she said that the church's
stance on gays and women go against what she believed so she left.
My own relative that has been raised in a very strict religious
home, is thinking about going to a less strict practice.
I have a couple of
really religious friends. This year is the first time where I am
feeling better about myself and I'm able to not feel hurt about
their beliefs.
I had lunch with
one of them yesterday. She likes to talk about the chip that she
believes is being instituted in Obama's healthcare plan.
It is amazing to
me that this educated woman takes such an interesting view of
things. I had sent her the part of the plan that clearly states
that no such thing is intended.
However, I am also
starting to understand her line of reasoning ( the "mark of the
beast" relays back to the time when Christians were literally
tattooed on their foreheads, etc.).
Anyways, instead
of engaging her - it just goes in circles - I excused myself and
went back to the buffet table.
I've also dealt
with this situation by using sweetness and humor. When a friend
said a man she dated wasn't up to par being a Christian and
prefaced it by saying that she wasn't being judgmental, I laughed
and said how cute she is.

I think there is a
huge difference between religion and spirituality. I have become
far more "spiritual" than religious in the past 2 years.
Funny that this
all took place AFTER my baptism! I went to church to share in
worship with others who I thought were similar in my
I have found that
I am much more open and compassionate. A majority of them have
proved to be far more judgmental than I am comfortable
So, even though I
identify with my religion for purposes of classification (I suppose
for whatever type of religious service they will provide whenever I
have my funeral), my spiritual identity is far different than the
people I attended church with.
So, I don't get
hung up on "religion" anymore. I worship in my own way. It might
not be the "acceptable" way, but it works for me.

I see what you both are saying. I have, in my experience, come
across more of those who scorn and judge, unfortunately.
And I have found
that some who claim to be "moral" (for the lack of a better word)
don't really walk the walk.
For example, I
went to an elder's house for Bible study a while back. We began
discussing about relationships, for whatever reason the subject
came up.
The elder's wife
admitted that when she argues with her husband, she refuses to see
his side of the argument, and will not hear him out or speak to
him. She would rather be "left alone". In other words, she
stone-walls him. He ends up giving in, just so she will speak to
And they are
supposed to be teaching us? They are supposed to be the
I understand that
we are all human and none of us are perfect. But I was deeply
Firstly, because
my boyfriend and I have never had an argument. We TALK. We
communicate. We don't always agree. But we listen to each other. We
allow the other person to have their say. We come to an
understanding. Sometimes, after hearing the other's view, we might
change our view, or at least be more open to the other's
If either wants to
make a choice, and we both know that it will have a huge impact on
our relationship, we talk about it. It's not about "my way or the
highway". It's about what is in the best interest of him, the best
interest of me, the best interest of us.
If I don't allow
him to feel safe to speak to me about his hopes and dreams and
everything on his heart, it is quite unlikely that he will open up
to me. And then that defeats the whole purpose, doesn't
He and I have an
agreement that each of us is free to say at any time, "I am not ok
with this", if we don't have a good feeling about
It made me sad for
the elder, because I could see the hurt in his eyes when we were
all having this discussion. It was clear that it was more important
to her to be "right" than to be loving to her husband.
I'm not an expert
on relationships, but my boyfriend and I have known each other for
nearly a year, and we have never had any drama, and have never said
any mean or hurtful things to each other. I think that's pretty
12:00 am
January 5, 2011
chinadoll, you just gave a great example. A teacher who is
teaching people to do as they say and not as they do is a
hypocrite. You said that this troubled you. Trust your inner voice.
It might be telling you that what this couple is doing not
practicing what they preach is unhealthy for you. You said you are
in a long distance relationship. How many days have you spent with
your boyfriend in the past year?
12:00 am
September 24, 2010
The thing about
this couple, the elder is a very sweet man. He is also in the
military, so I always felt like I could relate better with him. We
talked easily about things and he could always see my
I think this made
his wife jealous. I am sure she saw me as a threat. I was never
interested in her husband in that way. The thought never occured to
me. When my Mom suddenly passed away last year, the elder hugged me
at church when they both saw me. His wife did not approach me or
say a word. But she called me "her sister in Christ?" The elder, he
had lost his own Mom not long ago, so he knew what that felt like.
So, I would say she is the hypocrite, not him, and I see how he
struggles to hold their marriage together.
Our church sees
divorce as a bad thing, I am sure as an elder, he is afraid that
they will take that annointing from him.
My boyfriend and I
have probably spent less than 30 days together if I had to count
them. We talk nearly every day, so this way it does not seem as
bad. Sometimes we are on the phone for 30 mins, sometimes 2 hours.
Between his work schedule, my work schedule, my school schedule,
and his training classes, it makes it hard to find time when we
both have any free time.
Once I am done
with school, I am sure that will change.
He and I are both
in the military. Either of us could be deployed at any time. I have
a feeling I will go first. We make the best of it each moment that
we can share together.
I prefer to see
the quality of the relationship, rather than quantity (amount of
time together). Yes, I know that's important, too, but we are
making the best of a less than ideal situation.
Neither of us
tolerate infidelity. Both of our previous marriages, we were
cheated on. So, that is definitely a deal breaker.
We know each
other's schedules to the minute (despite a 3 hr time difference).
We are either at work, at school/training, at the gym, or asleep.
Or he is with his son. If his schedule changes or if either of us
has to travel for work, we let each other know right away. I can
always count on him to be there for me if I need him. He always
makes time for me if I ask. I might not get that time right away,
but he will make it work.
I've been in a
couple of LDR's in the past, where the guy would just start an
argument on the phone for no reason except to create drama. I would
say, "I'm hanging up now. I won't talk to you if you want to
argue." I refuse to argue. If it's an in-person argument, I walk
away. If the person wants to yell and scream by themselves, have at
it. It takes two to argue, and I don't have the time or energy for
Then the guy would
immediately call back after I hang up. --Like he didn't think I
would actually do it--and start in with "oh, baby, baby, I'm sorry,
don't be like that, etc. etc."
One cannot build
trust with someone when they don't feel safe. You can't feel safe
when someone is playing mind games and being confusing.
My boyfriend and I
are very similar with our personalities. We are both good-hearted
and honest. If I feel like something will hurt me, I know it will
hurt him, so this way I stay aware on how I interact with
He appreciates
that I am not controlling of him in any way. He is free to do as he
chooses. If he wants to go and see friends or do something on his
own, even when we are together, I let him go. Since he feels he has
this freedom, he usually chooses to spend the time with me instead.
There is no "I'll show you!" or "you can't tell me what to
When I have
traveled to see him, and there is something I want to do that he is
not interested, I will still go. We just catch up with each other
later that day. He doesn't make me feel like I have to give up
anything just because I'm there to see him.
I stay true to
myself, and encourage him to do the same. Just because we are in a
relationship does not mean we stop being individuals. Our
relationship is inter-dependent, as opposed to
I tell him I can
live without him, but I don't want to. =)

Chinadoll, a career in the military has to be the most challenging
lifestyle when it comes to trying to maintain an intimate
relationship with someone. The fact that both of you are active
duty helps. With your level of education I am guessing that you are
an officer. How many more years do you have until your contract is
up? Even though this elder is kind and understanding you did say he
is having marital difficulty and his wife is jealous. With all that
going on do you still feel comfortable associating with
12:00 am
September 24, 2010
My contract is up
in 5 years, but by that time I will have 16 years of service. I'm
going to try to do at least 20 for retirement, I may as well at
that point.
I don't associate
with the elder and his wife very often. I don't want to cause any
more issues for them that they already seem to have.
The wife did
contact me not too long ago, to ask me to join some kind of group.
That was another reason why I stopped going to church. There were
all these home fellowships and ministries and Bible studies they
wanted to get me involved in.
I would tell the
elders and the pastors, I have just enough time to attend services
once a week. I am very busy and I am a full-time graduate student.
My living arrangement does not allow me to have people over all the
time and have meetings. They were trying to get people to take
turns having meetings at their homes.
I tried joining
the singles ministry and that didn't work. They made it clear when
you sign up that it's not for dating. Well, there was a guy at
church that joined it when I did because, guess why, he wanted to
date me. Of course he did not *say* that at first, but when you are
at meetings, and he tries so hard to sit next to you and talk to
you at every break, and wants to walk you to your car, it's pretty
obvious, isn't it?
And then it was
the Women's ministry. They want to have you attend meetings to
study passages in the Bible, so that you can "mentor" another
newly-baptized woman who joins, and teach her about scriptures.
Well, they didn't like it when I said, I don't know scriptures very
well, because if I want to know something, I talk directly with
God. You can imagine how that went over.
So, because I was
not available to volunteer for a bunch of stuff, to give my time,
more like be at their beck and call, I was seen as one who was
"selfish" and "uncaring". Many times, I could not make it to church
on Sundays because I have to work. People would tell me that "the
enemy (the Devil) is going to come after you because you are losing
your faith". Umm, I'm sorry, Uncle Sam owns me. If they say I have
to go, I have to go.
They have chapel
service available at work for those who want to attend. The
military will never deny you from worship. I have never seen or
heard anyone say no to whoever that asks. How can they, when we are
the ones who fight for everyone's freedom of religion and right to
12:00 am
January 5, 2011
chinadoll, you are darn near close to retirement lucky you. The
church must have made you feel obligated to the point you did not
enjoy it any longer. I know what you mean about getting scolded if
you say something a church member does not agree with, makes you
feel ashamed. Then of course causes you to want to avoid going to
church and associating with people who are so rejecting. According
to these folks hospitals should close ER's, stop tending to the
sick, triple A should not pick up stranded motorists, 911 operators
should refuse to work all out of fear of the devil coming after
them. Hope they do not go to a hospital, call 911, etc. on Sunday
so as not to cause someone to have the devil come after them. Do
you think that it has anything to do with the fact that lower
church attendance might mean decreased tithing? I wonder who and
what people are really concerned about.
12:00 am
September 24, 2010
As for tithing, I
gave what I could afford. If it was not 10%, so be it. They got
what they got.
If I didn't have
extra money to give, I brought extra food for the food pantry. I
know what it feels like to be hungry, to be out in the field for
days, and having to wait until the chow wagon came with the food,
always late. Food getting half-cold. There's no microwave out
there. Even if the food was yucky, you ate it, because it was
I felt like that
was more important than money. Especially when you have homeless.
Homeless families, homeless veterans. But then again, you have
those that want to criticize. Saying "that's all?" Or to look in
the basket to see how much money you put in--and give you "that
Sometimes, a
bakery would donate day-old loaves of bread to the church that the
bakery could not sell past the date. Even when I was low on funds,
I did not take the bread. I felt like there was probably someone
else who needed it more than me, I'd go without and make do with
what I had. And then you would see someone carrying 2-3 loaves of
bread, to put in the back seat of their Mercedes-Benz. Like,
Not knocking
Mercedes-Benz, by the way. I've been telling myself ever since I

myself thru college. It's still gonna be a while! A long while!

Hi Penny
We recently booked an Alaskan cruise vacation for our family of 14 through Penny at Bon Voyage. Penny did an amazing job - over and above! She covered every detail so we didn't have to wonder if we were missing anything. She researched and booked a family excursion in Juneau as well as our ride to and from the Canada Place cruise terminal and all went very smoothly. At the last minute, we needed an upgrade for our family's needs and Penny came through with more than we asked for. Along with her many special touches and her attention to detail, she displays professionalism and gives very friendly service. We will definitely be calling Penny for our future travels and highly recommend her to anyone planning a vacation!
Thanks Penny!

Meals on Wheels needs volunteer drivers, and if you have time for lunch - you have time for this beautiful ministry! Bring your kids, bring a friend, even share the fun with co-workers for 90 minutes on Tuesday or Wednesday every other week. Commit to a day and route or simply be a sub when needed. So many people rely on meals though this program and we need to make sure their needs are met. Can you find the time to help twice each month?
Every October we collect items for low-income families in Kentucky. All items donated must be NEW and our collection location is the church gathering space. Click here for this year's list. In early November, through the efforts of the St. Paul and Minneapolis Council of Catholic Women, the donations are delivered to poverty-stricken areas in eastern Kentucky (five of the ten poorest counties in the nation are located there). People here experience epidemics of prescription drug abuse, chronic obesity and toothlessness, high rates of diabetes and cancer, chronic depression, more than three times the national poverty rate, and shortened life spans for both men and women. Money and jobs are scarce and every year we receive letters of thanks from the families that receive gifts from members of our parish. Thank you for being so generous year after year!
Email Sarah for information.
On the second Thursday of every month, SEAS serves a free meal to anyone in the community who comes here to dine. Seton Hall is the dining rrom, teams of volunteers take turns planning the menus, preparing the food, decorating the room and greeting the guests. What a wonderful service this is for the people of our local community who may not have enough to get by. All are welcome and there is never a charge to eat. Click here to email Faith and find out about volunteer opportunities with Be Our Guest.
We collect new and gently used blankets the first weekend of every month to distribute to agencies working with the needy and homeless. Donations can be dropped off on the table in the gathering space or near the parish kitchen. Monetary donations are welcome; please reference this outreach mission on your check. Email Faith for information.
Provide clothing, food, gifts, toys, household goods and more for local families in need in our community. Donations are collected every November and delivered in early December to Hastings Family Service, Lewis House, Franciscan Brothers of Peace and TLc of Hastings. Click here for more information.
Contact Sarah in November for information or to help prepare tags or deliver donations.
The Brothers minister to the daily needs of the inner city poor and homeless, those in crisis and those suffering with HIV and AIDS. They provide food and clothing to thousands of families in St. Paul every year and SEAS collects for their Thanksgiving and Christmas drives.
At Gather4Good events, people of all ages assemble care kits that are distributed locally to homeless and domestic abuse shelters, and to those receiving help through the Catholic United Response Program.

DRAFT I Gotta leave now. Will be back for more. I havent said anything that millions of CCTV viewers dont already know more about than I do...
gotta go. remember, I pdf to make sure no one changes my legal writings. and we are very close to disclosure and currency deval... black ops money is almost gone that funds your organizations.
One more thing... odd and peculiar computer behaviors will not let me upload a bbc web online photo available to public (is only 215k).
Here is link http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisda.....013143.stm I am on right in black bandana. I will not post the odd error messages so the magical computer genie should play ball. Hell... you got this zipped up so that no one in the real world gets to see it and it will be like arfcomm where ONLY FEDERAL AGENTS, CONTRACTORS AND INFORMANTS SEE ANY OF MY POSTING AND RESPOND TO THEM (the public already knows what you have done to the hero of the day for 40+ years) Its like Luke Skywalker destroys the death star, gets his medal, should be hero of the day and goes back to a planet full of satanic storm troopers.
Dear FBOp, I will post nothing controversial... I guess we can call it that. Note: Fictional Thoughts - I have never posted to any forums or started a website because 'PTB' could possibly go in and change posting to say something illegal and I will never know. So I will make sure that I print and save to pdf to document (and everyone knows how I love to document). Currency issues could be coming. Rest assured that my off world protection (more fictional thoughts) is the reason I am here (as you so well know). Why am I so valuable to EVERYONE?
John,hope your server does not get overrun (like arfcomm did when I posted porky pig on wall photos) and if the Feds cause you problems let me know we can go offline with email. (Might be better to start that way).
You know... this is all so f'd up. I have been a golden monkey making money (of which I receive none) for CCTV, I believe I have a sizable fan base who like me and a fan base that feeds off my loosh. At least half of the country and probably many parts in the world at least have an idea of who I am. All of these people and Foreign Intel (per sources) and the media and sports and Hollywood all know more about me than I know about me. I have been told that Star Wars is real and that some kid was the Last Starfighter and he blew up the Death Star and received the medal (like the last scene in Star Wars) and on and on... and I cant post to a forum asking for FOIA help without a sea of 'interested parties' coming in. Am I connected to Progenitors? Time will tell.
Note on military records. It is highly illegal to claim to be in the military and not have any records to prove it (even though I have photos and videos). If my VA type paperwork was burned up in the vault at age 6 or 7 think about what they would do with my real paperwork. I want to stay with 'military type unit'. I dont know if I was in the military... I do not even know if I was paid a check (another FOIA) because most super soldiers do not get paid because they are under mind control. It could be that I was at home going to high school and college (I have an accounting degree. I can see the shock on your faces) and then drugged and off to run a mission across the world and then back when mission is done. Everyone reading this can answer... except me. I dont know how I was in 2 places at same time (ex 1992 Somalia Beach Landing yelling get that light out of my face while watching it at home in Shreveport) except for clones or screen memories.
Codename Haynesville told me that I flew out of Barksdale, Shreveport Regional (after runway extensions for me, spec ops c130s and spec ops c5 galaxy's) and after 1992, Carswell (now NAS FTW).
Age 2 - parents put me in Monarch Project, then to Project Mannequin (Super Soldier I have a couple of web photos and some vcr tapes clips off of youtube). Back in 2011, I was told many times that my military records were burned at the St Louis? VA records fire. My records were in the 6th floor central vault area that was burned up. Fire looks suspicious to me. I told guys, 'I was approx 6 or 7 years old... I could not have been in the military at that age and you are stuck on stupid'.
I only know what I was told by others. I have ZERO brain memories Project Monarch/Mannequin, any space activites, any Super Soldier military type activities or
I will skip over possible approx 6 year old 20 and back activities. Mars Defense Force is not covered by FOIA. Earth Defense Force is probably not covered either... or maybe.
1983 - possibly in Yosemite Secret Service wreck. Was told I was only survivor because I wore seat belt and 3 others died. I only know what I was told. I was 16 I replied and thought they were stupid.
1983 - Grenada - told by others I was in group dropped on wrong side of runway and they couldnt figure out if I was both the commander and guy who hot wired bulldozer and drove bulldozer blade up down runway as cover to get to other side of runway. I was 16 years old. How was I in Grenada. They said I did other stuff on the video, too.

You know... this is the only thing I need to post up here. Everyone already knows all the other things I post.
Not allowing me to try to get my military records online will be dealt with after disclosure by a new legal system setup just for this.
New information for many of the feds...
Golden Rule Life Statement Read to Walter George
I am documenting what was repeatedly read to me over the years.
Over the past few years these 3 groups of people
-Federal agents / contractors / informants who were gang stalking me
- Friends / handlers / private gun range members
- Honeypot dates paid for by the FBI sent to me
have repeatedly read (at least 30 times) Preston James' Golden Rule statement from http://www.veteranstoday.com below:
The Ruling cabal's greatest secret is that they are unable to infect and control those Americans who refuse to violate the Golden Rule (except in self-defense) know and keep a strong commitment to the US Constitution and Bill of Rghts and refuse to be compromised or accept the lies and evil of the Ruling Cabal or its representatives or agents. These researchers believe that individuals cannot become infected with this Cosmic Parasite or demon unless they have been somehow compromised to believe that it is okay to violate the Golden rule.
Those born with a lack of conscience, extreme narcissists or psychopaths can obviously become infected quite easily if this is true. So as this narrative goes, the Cabal recruits by searching for those that are easily compromisable. If someone has strong character, deep integrity and refuses to harm others unless in self-defense, the cabal is not interested in these folks. Cabal wannabees must be comfortable pedophiling and sacrificing young innocent children and creating mass-murder and mass suffering through the pre-arrangement and provocation or wars and mass death and destruction.
When this was read to me I had no idea what a cabal or elite or anything like that was and I just didn't care. FBI 'black ops' told all these people to read this for a reason that I can only speculate about. I did not stumble across this article until Dec 2014.
Honeypot dates (paid for by FBI and were Monarch betas) would read this long statement to me from their cell phone and go, 'Awwwwwww. You live by the Golden Rule and dont do any of this stuff'. In other words, I am a solid, good guy and they know it.
What were the possible reasons this statement was read to me over and over again?

I've been talking a lot about my upcoming full-day Juicy Woman Revolution retreat happening on Saturday, July 16th in Toronto, Ontario. My two big goals for you if you attend is that you have a mind-blowing experience and that you leave with tools to continue to feel that way in your day-to-day life.
Registration opens in June. I'm freaking excited and honoured and thrilled and can't wait.
Here's an "a-ha" moment I had recently.
I attended a Woman of Company conference a few weeks ago and on my way there, I was trying to sum up what I do in one sentence. Conferences are the kind of places where you have to answer the question, "What do you do?" a hundred times. It can either feel really exciting and good or it can bring up fear and anxiety. Usually, I like to talk a lot about what I do and I can find it hard to edit it down to one essential sentence. But I knew I needed to get my idea across quickly before I could go on and on about it.
Here's what I decided I would give a trial run. "My name is Sophie Luxton and my business is Juicy Woman Revolution. I help women to live more in their bodies and less in their heads."
Boom, as they say. (visualize mic drop image here)
Every time I said that to a woman, her face relaxed, her shoulders dropped and she silently nodded.
This line worked. Every woman I talked to felt that she was too much in her brain and knew that it wasn't where she wanted to be…and intuitively, she knew that being in her body, being in HER, could give her what she was looking for.
The body is it, y'all. (Dance break here.)
Everything I deeply care about goes back to the body. It is where I believe women have their greatest chance at living inside their authenticity, their truth, their power and beauty, their magnificent range of colours and emotions, their sensuality and sexuality and it is the place that a woman can live from, that believes in her 100%. It is a power source of self-love, self-knowing and self-honouring. I think that the way we live right now exalts the brain and diminishes the body. We are taught to trust either the brain (full of lots of self-sabotaging crap, as we all know) or someone else. We have a crisis of confidence – we don't trust ourselves enough. And when we live in the body more than in the brain, we start to be led by our truth and we start to trust ourselves again. You know what that feels like? It feels like your life is your own. And you live deeply AS YOU.
So, that is what we will be living in at the July JWR retreat.
Thank you to everyone who sent in their questions. Here are two questions that I got a lot:
1. The thought of doing a lot of work in my body and "deeply connecting" to my body freaks me out and makes me anxious because I am not loving my body right now and I don't know if I can do it…or want to, connect with it.
I get it. And I'm going to ask you to allow yourself to experience something different in your body. I'm going to ask you to allow for the possibility that you can love your body, just as she is, and that you can deeply connect with your body, just as she is, and that it will feel soulfully, deliciously, emotionally, wonderfully good.
2. I don't feel comfortable with getting emotional. I actually don't think I want to get emotional because I don't know what I'm going to feel and I don't want to fall apart in front of total strangers.
We have a kleenex box with your name on it. Here's the deal. Yup, this is emotional stuff. Meaning, we feel. That's it. We just feel. We don't hide anymore. We don't squish down everything and compress it and hide it under the bed or in the corridors of our soul or in crevices or in the dark somewhere. We feel it. And that can be overwhelming. And sometimes it can be uncomfortable. It can also be transformative. Beautiful. Incredibly powerful. Full of love. Freeing. Releasing. Cleansing.
Here's what one woman said on that topic – "I had only one fear, to reach a place that would make me feel vulnerable and that would make me feel emotional…and that's exactly what happened and I LOVED IT!! I usually bottle up my stress and this felt very relieving."
In other words, if what you are doing now doesn't make you feel the way you want to feel, why not try this?
In the comments below, I'd love for you to share some of your thoughts of living in the brain vs living in the body. Is this something you think about? Is it something you have explored before? Or are now?

Stephen Schwartz, the composer of "Wicked" and much more, has never been shy about discussing his struggles on Broadway. And so, when he told a friend how much he loved working on his revived — and Tony Award-winning — "Pippin," his friend stared in disbelief: "Who are you, and what have you done with Stephen?" Schwartz laughs about it now. He started writing the score as a 17-year-old student at Carnegie Mellon and kept tweaking it long after graduation. "I've always been attracted to titles that are impossible in real life," he says of songs like "Corner of the Sky" and "Colors of the Wind." He's also attracted to books: "I have all 81 Agatha Christie novels and can tell you who did it in each." Here's what else is in his library.
by James Gleick
I like books about cosmology because I have a hard time understanding it. This one deals with chaos theory, and it's not only comprehensible but a page-turner because you're following the scientists as they develop this theory. Years later, I can react to traffic and weather patterns and say, "Ah, chaos theory at work!"
Ordinary People
by Judith Guest
I'm not a big fan of heroes and villains, black and white. This book, about a family with a son who's having enormous psychological problems after his brother's killed in a boating accident, is full of nuanced characters. I stayed up reading it 'til 2 in the morning and was just sobbing, because it awakened responses about my relationship with my own family.
His Dark Materials
by Philip Pullman
My friend Raúl Esparza recommended it: He thought it was terrific. I'm fond of fantasy series — I used to read the Narnia series and "Lord of the Rings" to my son, and I'm a fan of the Harry Potter books. This deals with organized religious and its inhibiting effect on individuals. I found that very daring. Plus it's very touching, with a bittersweet ending.
In the Best Families
by Rex Stout
Rex Stout wrote a series of novels, probably the best-written mysteries I've come across, about an eccentric detective named Nero Wolfe, who lives in a brownstone on West 35th Street. Wolfe is enormously fat and obsessed with cooking, and many of the books feature recipes. This book is one of the last in the series, and bears repeated rereadings.

Items for the big four survival categories (food, water, shelter and fire) must be adequately included within your store-bought bag. Be sure they meet a minimum 72-hour requirement. This is a must. If any are missing or short packed, keep shopping.
A detailed look at the bag can reveal many imperfections that can become big problems under continuous use. A bad zipper or two, weakly stitched seams, thin outer shell material and poorly sewn strap connections can all lead to problems in the field, which can make your situation go from bad to worse. Tough fabric, double-stitched seams and high-quality hardware components are what you want to look for.
Just as you examine the actual backpack, you need to try out its included components. Check equipment for ease of operation, weight and durability under normal and extreme conditions. Try your food for taste and texture whether they are MRE meals, freeze-dried or dehydrated foods. Use your multi-tool around the house, test your radio and compass, and learn how your multi-function shovel and portable stoves work and assemble. If they meet your expectations, you are on the right path.
When you buy online or in a store, read carefully all the items that are included in the bug-out bag. What initially may seem like an incredible number may turn out to be less than you think. The descriptions they provide may list every match or every bandage as an individual item. When it's all said and done, you may have over 150 items but only about a dozen necessary main groups of products.
This bag will be with you night and day as you travel through all possible types of terrain; it needs to be comfortable. Try it out with the pack fully loaded. Does it instantly feel like a part of you? If not, why not? If you feel any rough points hitting your lower back or shoulder area, you may have to reconfigure the items within. If the pain persists, then the bag itself must be the problem. Continue to try different packs until you find the most comfortable one. Your bag should be a help when bugging out, not a hindrance.
Not all pre-filled bags have everything you would possibly need. You may have some extra food components or a bigger first-aid kit that you want to put in, so you need a bit of extra space. If your bag is already stretched to the max with their included items, it is too small and unacceptable. Find one with about 20 percent of empty space, just enough for you to add your own extras.
If assembling your own bug-out bag doesn't appeal to you, there are a number of pre-packed bags on the market. Before buying any of these bags, however, there are some tough questions you need to ask before spending your hard-earned money. Here are the keys to look for when shopping for the right pre-assembled bag for you.

Turning resolutions in reality
At the beginning of the year, I made it one of my New Year's Resolutions to do a triathlon for the first time ever. A few weeks later, a colleague goaded me into signing up for the Berlin Triathlon, telling me he'd also do it. I registered eagerly only to find out three weeks ago that my colleague had never actually paid! Anyway, despite the deceit, I'm all paid up and filled with excitement and trepidation about taking my first steps into the multi-sport world of triathlon.
With today marking one month until the event itself, I thought I'd share how my training has been going so far. In June I'll be racing the "Olympic Distance" triathlon, which involves 1,500m swimming, 38km cycling and 10km running. I chose to start with this as it's all distances I'm happy to do separately, the tricky part is doing them fast and one after the other!
I've been following a beginner's triathlon plan from 220Triathlon, mostly because it seemed the least intimidating of all the online plans I could find. Life has definitely become a lot more sport-oriented with at least one activity almost every day and only one rest day a week. I enjoy the variety of training and can certainly feel that I'm improving in all three areas. To stop it from becoming too overwhelming, I like to just focus on the next workout on the plan and try not to spend too much time worrying about the next week's schedule as it invariably says scary things like "2 hours cycling in the hills" which makes my legs tired just to read it! So far it's gone well and I've yet to miss a training session (!) except the one where it said "optional" and it was my birthday.
Training has also included re-reading "Tricurious" by Laura Fountain and Katie King, which I can highly recommend for the nervous beginner triathlete. It's not only fully of useful, calming advice, but it's also so inspiring that I feel like I could take on an Ironman once I've finished reading!
Getting down to business
Because of travelling around a lot in March I could only seriously start my training eight weeks before the race, which some might say is not much time, but we'll just work with what we've got! I'm currently heading towards the halfway point so here are the vital facts and figures:
In the last 4 weeks* I have:
Running is going great! Most of my runs have been under 10km and I seem to have shifted into a new gear as I'm now able to consistently run distances of 6 – 8 km at speeds under 5:20m/km which I haven't been doing for over a year! It feels good to really push the tempo and find that I can go faster than I thought.
Cycling is my biggest worry as I've never cycled in a big group before and I STILL DON'T HAVE A ROAD BIKE! I hope to sort this out on the weekend, but it means training on my heavy old touring bike until then which is not ideal. I'm hoping a new bike will give me a huge injection of speed because otherwise this is where I'll really lose time. That said, I am enjoying riding more and doing structured cycling workouts, which is something new to me.
Getting back in the pool has been fun, I always loved swimming as a kid, but it never became a sporting habit because of all the "faff". However, I'm finding that it's really not that "faffy", especially if I go in the evening when it doesn't matter if I have straggly hair and goggle marks afterwards. I think I'm more of an endurance swimmer though as I can happily swim up and down the pool for hours, but it's turning this stamina into speed that needs to be improved upon. I'm also very aware of the need to practice open water swimming, but it's still so cold!!!
Strength training / yoga: I try to do at least 10 minutes every morning and have squeezed in a few more yoga sessions too, although this is something I want to increase in the next couple of weeks.
* There's still a cycling session and a long run on the plan for this week, which have not been included in the figures.
How do I feel?
So far I'm really happy with how training is going, I feel strong, I'm enjoying each of the sports and it hasn't quite taken over my life too much (yet). I get nervous when I think about pulling it all together to race in just one month's time, but it feels great to be turning this resolution into reality. Big dreams and hard work are what it's all about!
To keep up with my training you can follow me on Strava where I log all my workouts or on Instagram where there's photographic evidence of my triathlon exploits.

On Dec. 23, 2011, President Obama signed into law the Temporary Payroll Tax Cut Continuation Act of 2011. Included in the Act was a provision that temporarily reduced the OASDI (Social Security's Old-Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance) withholding rate from 6.2 percent to 4.2 percent for the first two months of 2012.
This change was effective with paychecks (and direct deposit) issued on or after Jan. 1, 2012. Because the law was enacted so close to the end of the calendar year, the IRS allowed employers until Jan. 31, 2012, to implement this withholding change.
For monthly paid UC employees, the change could not be implemented in time for the Jan. 1, 2012, pay due to the late issuance of the IRS instructions implementing the new tax rates. UC employees paid on Feb. 1, 2012, received a 2 percent refund in their Social Security tax because the Jan. 1 paycheck (or direct deposit) they received was subject to withholding at the old rate (6.2 percent). As a result, the net Social Security withholding for the Feb. 1 pay is 2.2 percent.

The problem is that it has become politically awkward to draw attention to absolutes of bad and good. In place of manners, we now have doctrines of political correctness, against which one offends at one's peril: by means of a considerable circular logic, such offences mark you as reactionary and therefore a bad person. Therefore if you say people are bad, you are bad.

Engineering colleges to impart skill training to 10 lakh in 3 years
New Delhi, Jul 24: The faculty of engineering colleges will provide training to unemployed youth, including school dropouts, as the government kicks off an ambitious plan that aims at imparting skills to over 10 lakh people to make them employable in the next three years.
The scheme- 'PMKVY by Technical Institutions', comes under the larger umbrella of the Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana, officials in the HRD ministry told PTI.
A key aspect of the programme is that there is no age bar for candidates who will not only be trained but also provided placement assistance and counselling. Beginning from the academic year 2016-17, the scheme aims to rope in 2,500 colleges initially to provide skills training to 100 people each.
The number of colleges would be raised to 3,000 in the next academic year and to 5,000 in 2018-19. At least 10,12,500 youth should acquire the skills and training which will help them gain employment, officials said.
The technical institutions have to utilize their infrastructure for offering various kinds of courses during the off-college hours so that the unemployed youth enrolled shall acquire adequate skills for certification under the National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF) and find placement or self employment, an official said.
Officials said under this initiative, funds would be released covering the cost of teaching learning activities directly to the institutions by the Centre. The scheme envisages colleges and polytechnics which come under the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) to be utilised for its implementation.
The AICTE has come up with the guidelines for the scheme and many institutions have applied for it. A national-level committee headed by Secretary Higher Education V S Oberoi in the HRD ministry will supervise the implementation of the scheme.
In addition, there will be state committees. The infrastructure and lab facilities of the existing institutions will be utilised for implementation of the scheme. The institutions can take the help of either their own faculty for the programme or call those from outside.
The AICTE will provide grants under set terms to institutions which participate in the programme, officials said.
According to the guidelines, admission may be done round the year, depending on the duration of the programmes, to facilitate a steady stream of learners joining the college and moving out as trained workforce.
On successful completion of training for 250 hours, the certificate for skilling component would be awarded by the Board of Technical Education or Technical University of the respective state where the institute is located.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), a member of the Senate General Aviation Caucus and certified flight instructor with more than 10,000 flight hours, today praised final passage of the House-Senate Conference Report for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Reauthorization and Reform Act of 2011 (H.R. 658). After twenty-three extensions that at times furloughed FAA employees in Oklahoma and around the nation, this will be the first FAA reauthorization since 2003. The U.S. House of Representatives passed the conference report last Friday by a 248-169 vote. Today's 75-20 Senate vote moves the bill to President Obama's desk.
The bill includes important measures for both Oklahoma and the nation. Included in the bill is a measure that will integrate unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) into the national aerospace system by September 30, 2015. An Inhofe amendment to the legislation would make model aircraft weighing less than 55 pounds exempt from this program. Opening air space for UAS will enhance public safety by allowing law enforcement, fire and emergency responders to use the vehicles. Oklahoma has a very active UAS industry, and on January 20, 2012, Inhofe led the Oklahoma congressional delegation in urging the federal agencies to select the state as a national UAS Test Range.
"Oklahoma's aerospace industry is an important aspect to our economy, and our state is an industry leader in UAS research and development," said Inhofe. "Congress directing our nation's air space to be opened to UAS is excellent news. I will continue to work with our delegation to encourage the FAA, NASA, and the Defense Department to select Oklahoma as national UAS Test Range."
Inhofe continued, "This bill provides important funding in the years ahead to modernize our nation's aviation sector, improve our nation's radar system, and make commercial aviation improvements. This long overdue legislation will enhance our nation's aviation system, and provides an important roadmap in the years ahead for the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center and our airports."
The bill authorizes $15.9 billion annually for FAA programs through fiscal year 2015, a compromise level between the House and Senate. The bill provides funding for NextGen, the FAA's effort to modernize the national air system, and $13.4 billion over four years for the Airport Improvement Program, which provides grants for the planning and development of public airports.

NEW YORK (MainStreet) -- A new report out shows that, while Canada may be eliminating its penny, Americans don't want to part with their copper. What may be surprising is the amount of money consumer save by keeping the penny.
Recurring surveys – the latest released today - by the Washington, D.C.-based Americans for Common Cents shows 66% of Americans favor keeping the penny in the nation's currency system. (The ACC is a consortium of 50 groups that are working to highlight the benefits the penny provides to the economy and consumers).
But groups like the Citizens for Retiring the Penny point to Canada's recent decision to ditch the penny and are lobbying for the U.S. government to do the same thing.
That effort may be an uphill fight, as Americans' support for the penny has remained stable over the years.
Consider the track record of support during the past 20-plus years. In 1990, a Gallup poll showed that 67% of Americans favored keeping the penny in circulation. Furthermore, 62% of survey respondents said they would oppose legislation to keep the penny off the market. In the past 10 years, two bills introduced in Congress that would eliminate the copper currency failed to generate support.
A 1996 report by Princeton, N.J.-based Opinion Research Corporation found that 73% of Americans wanted to keep the penny in circulation.
That's a strong track record in support of the venerable penny, especially amidst gathering evidence that eliminating it could cost consumers some serious coin, according to the ACC.
"These results confirm the strong and unwavering support the penny continues to receive from America," Mark Weller, executive director of the ACC, said in a statement. "Americans understand that eliminating the penny would lead to a rounding process and cost them hundreds of millions of dollars in higher prices."
The ACC has shifted into high gear after the announcement that the Canadian government has opted to eliminate its penny. The government has asked the U.S. Mint to study ways that could make production of the penny cheaper, but a recommendation likely won't be out until after the fall election season, the ACC says.
Uncle Sam eliminated the half penny more than 150 years ago, and groups like Citizens for Retiring the Penny say the cost of producing the penny means it's high time to take the ubiquitous coin out of circulation, too.
"The half penny was eliminated in 1858, when it was worth over 10 times what the penny is worth today," says the CRP in a statement. "Assuming that the timing was correct before, this means that we should have eliminated the penny 50 years ago. The penny is now worth so little that nobody even picks it up off the ground, despite the old 'lucky penny' adage."
The groups says it costs the Mint $100 million to produce 7 billion pennies annually, about 33% of which goes to paying for the zinc needed to make the coins.
But consumers may have a vested interest in keeping the penny in play. 77% of respondents in the ACC survey said they were against rounding cash transactions to the nearest nickel, fearing it would lead to higher consumer prices. "The alternative to the penny is rounding – something that Americans abhor," the ACC's Weller adds.
For now, any talk of eliminating the penny is premature, even as Canada goes penniless. With bigger economic problems on its docket, don't expect Congress to follow Canada's lead anytime soon.

Known as the most important philosopher to ever write in English, David Hume comes in as the topic for today. He was the last of the great British empiricists whose many works still remain to be deeply influential today. More noted during his time as a historian, Hume wrote a six-volume history about England. Join me as we examine his life, ideas and one of my most favorite philosophical theories.
Early Life
David Hume was born in 1711 in Edinburgh, Scotland. Originally, David Home, he changed his name in 1934 because non-Scotts couldn't pronounce his name correctly. He wasn't even 12 years old on the day he joined the University of Edinburgh, and studied many fields such as: history, science, literature, philosophy and math. David studied until he felt that he needed a change of scenery and moved to France for a few years. At the age of 26 Hume wrote one of what people today call his most important work, The Treatise of Human Nature. In this book he talks about everything from morality to space and time.
Bundle Theory
This is the theory I was referring to. Bundle theory is an idea of Hume's that states that an object is just a bunch of properties. An object is not conceivable without its properties. In other words, think of an orange. If you take away the oranges color, its taste, its smell or its consistency, is it still an orange? If you take away one property, how about all of them? The point is there is no particular substance, objects are just collections of ideas that we give names to.
Hume's Ethics
Although known more for other fields in philosophy, Hume did develop an Ethical theory. In the Treatise of Human Nature Hume laid out his idea that the foundation of ethics is in that of human emotions. As a Sentimentalist, Hume had claimed that our emotions dictate our reason. He goes into explain that some virtues are natural while others like justice are artificial. Unfortunately, there's much debate on what he means by these terms. Although, this theory is not known as much as other ethical theories such as: Utilitarianism, Ethical Egoism, and Kantian Ethics, it is still reasonable to agree that human emotion dictates our choices and ethical actions.
Later life
David Hume had a very active life. In 1763-1765 he served as a secretary to Lord Hertford in Paris, France. In his later years he also met and then later had a falling out with Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Hume lived in France for quite sometime but eventually moved back to Edinburgh in 1768. On his deathbed James Boswell visited Hume who told Boswell that he considered it a "most unreasonable fancy" that there is a life after death. He died from what many believe was bowel or liver cancer and was buried in Edinburgh on the Eastern slop of Calton Hill.
Hume was a very well accomplished philosopher by the time he passed away. He contributed to almost every field of philosophy, and left a mark on the world as the most important person in the field to write in English. This, of course, is only a short introduction to the wonderful life of David Hume. He inspired such philosophers/thinkers as Karl Popper, Immanuel Kant, and Albert Einstein. To get the best out of Hume I would suggest taking a look at The Treatise of Human Nature, like I said earlier, it covers a lot of material; it's one of the best overviews of Hume's Philosophy. Well, that's all for today! Thanks for reading, and keep on thinking!

Same-sex marriage has been legal in the District of Columbia since December 2009 and in Maryland since January 2013. Couples who wish to apply for a marriage license are granted all of the rights, protections, and responsibilities of federally-recognized civil marriage. Same-sex couples now undergo the same processes for marriage license applications, property ownership, federal and state benefits, and income taxes associated with married couples. Couples who have previously been registered as domestic partners can apply for a marriage license under the new law. It is important that these couples pay close attention to the laws of their registered state before applying for a marriage license in Maryland or D.C.
As of 2013, same-sex marriage is legally defined in Maryland and the District of Columbia as 'between two individuals who are not otherwise prohibited from marrying." Same-sex marriage is identified as occurring between two men or two women.
Domestic partnerships and civil unions both offer certain state-level rights to unmarried couples. Domestic partnerships extend these protections to unmarried couples who are living together such as hospital visits, medical decisions, and the ability to jointly own property. Civil unions specifically apply to same-sex couples and provide more (but not all) of the protections associated with marriage. Both domestic partnerships are state-level arrangements that end the moment a couple crosses the state border. The federal benefits (that is, benefits recognized at a national level) associated with marriage are not accessible to couples in civil unions.
Marital property includes anything the couple acquires while married (including retail property, vehicles, stocks and bonds, bank accounts, valuables, retirement plans and IRAs). Gifts or inheritances made to an individual by a third party are considered non-marital property along with any possessions acquired prior to the marriage.
Same-sex military couples are now eligible for military family benefits including health care, on-post housing, and survivor benefits. They are expected to become eligible for veteran's benefits as well.
Individuals from other countries are now eligible to apply for U.S. citizenship as the legal spouse of a U.S. citizen.
Spouses of federal employees are now eligible for government benefits including medical, vision, and dental coverage as well as pension plans.
There is no residency requirement to get married in the state of Maryland. Couples applying for a marriage license must present a photo ID (note: whether both individuals in the couple need to be present for the application depends on the local county). Couples can apply for a marriage license at the Office of the Circuit Court Clerk or with a Non-Resident Affidavit (available online from the Clerk of each county).
Individuals who have been married in the past must provide proof that the marriage ended legitimately with a divorce judgment or death certificate. The marriage license is valid for up to six months.
Same-sex couples can legally file a joint income tax return in the state of Maryland. Both residents and nonresidents should use the same filing status as that of their federal income tax returns. The IRS allows married same-sex couples to file joint federal tax returns.
Maryland government employees in domestic partnerships are no longer eligible for spousal health insurance benefits. Same-sex couples working for the state of Maryland who wish to continue receiving health benefits for their partner must apply for a marriage license.
There is no residency requirement to marry in Maryland, so government employees who live in a state where same-sex marriage is not legal may apply for a marriage license in Maryland if they still wish to receive spousal health benefits from the state government.
Second-parent adoption grants parental rights to the spouse of the child's biological parent. Maryland law permits all adults to petition to adopt a child, and now recognizes same-sex couples who are legally married as co-parents to any adopted children. Second-parent adoption is highly recommended to same-sex couples in order to assure legal rights extend beyond state borders.
If a woman giving birth in the hospital wishes to claim her partner as a spouse and the other mother of the child, Maryland requires both women be legally married. The non-biological mother does not have to apply for second-parent adoption in this case.
Adoption and custody rights are constantly changing, and couples who wish to adopt are encouraged to seek legal counsel to provide help for their specific situation. Same-sex adoption has been on the rise since the legalization of same-sex marriage in Maryland and is expected to continue to rise in the coming years. Certain situations (including surrogacy) are presently under policy debate and may change in the future.
There is no residency requirement to marry in the District of Columbia. Both applicants must appear in person to Moultrie Courthouse with photo identification. All applicants must bring the $10 license fee. There is an approximately three-day waiting period between applying for and receiving a marriage license. The license has no specific time frame and an unsigned marriage license can be used anywhere within the D.C. area.
Same-sex spouses in the District of Columbia can choose to file state tax returns under either "married filing jointly" or "married filing separately" status. As in Maryland, federal income tax returns must be filed under the same status as state income tax forms.
If the couple is already registered in D.C. as a domestic partnership, the $35 application fee will be waived. The domestic partnership status will immediately dissolve upon legal marriage. Couples who were in a domestic partnership or civil union outside of the District of Columbia will have to check the laws of the state where domestic partnership was granted, as some states require the couple to dissolve the partnership or civil union before they can legally marry.
Couples who have been legally married out-of-state or out-of-country are automatically recognized as married in D.C. Couples who are domestic partners in certified "substantially similar" jurisdictions will also have their domestic partnership automatically recognized by the city of D.C.
Second-parent adoption grants parental rights to the spouse of the child's biological parent. As of March 2013, adoptions can take place in the District of Columbia provided the child was born in the District. At present, lesbian couples who give birth in D.C. are able to obtain second-parent adoption. Surrogate births are not currently legal and D.C. and as such the law does not presently apply to children born via surrogacy.
If a woman giving birth in the hospital wishes to claim her partner as a spouse and the other mother of the child, the District does not require both women to be married as long as the child is born in D.C. The non-biological mother does not have to apply for second-parent adoption in this case.
Adoption and custody rights are constantly changing, and couples who wish to adopt are encouraged to seek legal counsel to provide help for their specific situation. Same-sex adoption has been on the rise since the legalization of same-sex marriage in D.C. and is expected to continue to rise in the coming years. Certain situations (including surrogacy) are presently under policy debate and may change in the future.

How can we cultivate readiness for the unexpected good?
I'd like to talk about accidentally succeeding. Or failing the right way. Or, as Buzz Lightyear might call it, "falling with style." The idea is cultivating readiness for the unexpected good, be it professional, personal or a mix of both. Using the tumultuous past year of my professional life, which started with a viral Facebook post and ended with me being published in the New York Times twice in the one week–with a layoff and a wedding thrown in the middle–I'll detail the ways that serendipity, preparedness (or lack thereof) and abject terror have propelled me and ponder the degree to which we can control our own luck.

The survey, previewed at the NAVCP's annual conference in late April, indicates that consumers who belong to stand-alone vision care plans are twice as likely to get an annual comprehensive eye exam as those whose vision coverage is "bundled" with their major medical plan. That is, 33.3 percent of the consumers surveyed who belong to stand-alone vision plans that offer coverage for both exams and eyeglasses or contact lenses got annual eye exams, vs. 16.3 percent of those enrolled in major medical plans with similar vision coverage. In the case of children, 29 percent of those enrolled in stand-alone vision plans used their benefits, compared to 12.5 percent of those children whose parents have vision benefits bundled into their medical plans. The survey included data from nine vision-plan providers that are primary NAVCP members, plus VSP Vision Care, which is an allied member through its Eyefinity/OfficeMate division. The study, conducted by an independent research firm, reviewed eye-exam usage patterns of nearly 85 million Americans enrolled in vision benefits programs during 2008 and 2009. According to the NAVCP, "The results indicate that vision plan membership has been increasing and eye exams have been utilized at a higher growth rate than membership, indicating consumers value the wellness component of their vision benefits that allows for the recognition of symptoms of chronic disease, as well as assessment of the need for vision correction." The organization added in a statement, "The study further bolsters the NAVCP's position that stand-alone vision plans should be included within the health-care exchanges contemplated by the recently passed health-care reform legislation." According to NAVCP's president, Richard Sanchez, who is also president and chief executive officer of Advantica, "Stand-alone vision plans offer a vital service and are an integral part of health-care delivery in our country. In order to ensure related improvements in overall health, and medical cost control for Americans, it is essential that stand-alone vision plans are widely available as part of the new health care landscape."
