Sad Quotes and Sayings - Page 6
Life is nothing without love and a good relation.
Tears can be trusted more than smile. Because there will be a true reason behind every tear.
I wish I never saw you in my dream. Because in reality, I am reaching for someone that was never there.
I am mad for her but why am I not made for her?
Loving you is the wonderful thing that ever happen in my life. Your eyes can make every girl melt. I never thought that we will best best friends when I met you for the first time. But why did I fall in love with you? You always hurt me. Why can't I stop thinking about you? It's hard for me to admit to you that I love you. Because we were best friends. Why do you always make me jealous? It's hurting me. I hope you will realize that I love you. And I hope you will have the same feeling as I do.
The hardest part in ending a relationship is not the feeling of letting go, but going through every damn day and remembering it.
Feeling of leaving the world comes when no one understand our pain, not even our love.
You broke my heart when you lied to me but I took you back you broke it again when you moved in with her but I took you back. You broke my heart when she became pregnant and had your daughter but I took you back. You broke my heart when you lied and said there was nothing between you and her but your child and I heard you on the phone saying I love to her. I will always love you but can not let you break my heart anymore my heart is in pieces millions of them and it will never be whole again.
He will never realize how hard it is for me to see him with her everyday. To walk down the hallway and see him look into her eyes the way he used looked into mine. To hear him tell her the things he used to tell me. To hear him call her the nicknames he made up for me. But the worst part of it all is knowing I still love him and always will when he never cared for me at all.
Why do we love, when at the end. . . We just hurt.3
The funniest people are the saddest once.
- Confucius
Be sad, it's an emotion. But don't ever feel it. You'll be cursed by everyone.
Tears are the only warmth in pain.
I have learned now that while those who speak about one's miseries usually hurt, those who keep silence hurt more.
- C.S. Lewis
There are two types of people in the world: those who prefer to be sad among others, and those who prefer to be sad alone.
- Nicole Krauss
The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected.
- Nicholas Sparks
The sun stopped shining for me is all. The whole story is: I am sad. I am sad all the time and the sadness is so heavy that I can't get away from it. Not ever.
- Nina LaCour
I feel like a defective model, like I came off the assembly line flat- out f***ed and my parents should have taken me back for repairs before the warranty ran out.
- Elizabeth Wurtzel
I don't want any more of this try, try again stuff. I just want out. I've had it. I am so tired. I am twenty and I am already exhausted.
- Elizabeth Wurtzel
That is all I want in life: for this pain to seem purposeful.
- Elizabeth Wurtzel
I cry and cry until I finally stop, thinking I'm going to die in the end, tears stop flowing from my eyes cos I have no more tears left to cry.
Why can't you just love me for who I am?
Have you ever lived my life, have you ever spent one minute in my shoes? If you haven't, then tell me why you judge me like you do.
Every morning you get up and put on a fake smile…but what if one morning you didn't? Would anyone notice?
Words hurt more than anything else can, because they last, sometimes forever.

The oil sands in Canada and oil shale deposits in the Rockies are examples of major oil spills that have been resolved by nature. Japan has built modern cities populated by numerous citizens over the sites of the two atomic bomb blasts that ended World War II.
Total reliance on wind and solar power would be nice in a utopian world. However, reality needs to set in at some point. Both forms of electrical generation are not economically competitive with other electricity-generating processes.
If the wind doesn't blow, or the sun doesn't shine, no electricity is generated. Building enough windmills and/or solar panels to supply the U.S. with its electricity needs would be cost-prohibitive, not to mention the ecological damage they would cause. How many expensive windmills and how many square miles of solar panels would be required to be built in eco-sensitive areas?
Both forms of electricity generation are more expensive to maintain as compared to a larger, more efficient, fossil fuel or nuclear plants, and the kilowatts generated are much more expensive to produce.
One writer worries about the fate of his children due to the increasing pollution in our air and water. I submit that our air and water are cleaner now than they were several decades ago. Also, if our environment is so bad, how come our life expectancies are dramatically increasing year by year?
With regard to my children's and grandchildren's futures, I am much more concerned about the massive, and ever-increasing debt they will be faced with paying that our government is incurring due to environmental and "feel good" entitlement programs.
I am also extremely concerned about the loss of personal freedom we, and future generations, are experiencing due to the current liberal mind-set.
We need to get out of "la la" land and be pragmatic for a much-needed change!

LAUREL COUNTY, Ky. —
"No, no, no. It's weak. No one's gonna buy it, and you shouldn't be selling it."
Elaine Benes to Jerry Seinfeld in "The Foundation" episode of "Seinfeld"
That's how I felt when the Paterno-family report came out, a report that was meant to discredit the Freeh report on Jerry Sandusky and the cover-up by Penn State officials, including Coach Joe Paterno.
The family released the report findings Sunday morning. This report, mind you, was bankrolled by the Paterno family and had one agenda in mind: To clear JoePa's name. Heck, the title of the report says it all: "The Rush To Injustice Regarding Joe Paterno."
Now I'm sure the Paterno family wants to believe the late coach was treated unjustly by the Freeh report. I don't. The Paterno-family report claims that the Freeh report unjustly and wrongly excoriated Paterno for his alleged role in a cover-up relative to the child sex abuse scandal involving former long-time Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky. Basically it said Joe didn't know much, and of what he knew, he told his superior, athletics director Tim Curley.
Then what? He went on about his daily business, while Sandusky was still allowed access to the Penn State facilities, where some of his crimes took place, including the incident that Mike McQueary told Paterno about involving Sandusky and a young boy in the Lasch Football Building showers in February 2001.
Right then and there Paterno should have informed the police. Not the campus police. The state police and child services. As a father you would think he would have wanted someone like Sandusky brought to justice swiftly.
But he didn't want to see his longtime friend and coach get into trouble. Neither did other officials at Penn State. No, they didn't want a scandal or black eye on the university.
But that's what they got, and much, much more.
Yes, both reports have flaws in them. The Paterno report, despite what the family wants you to believe, isn't perfect. And neither was Joe Paterno.
Now there's talk of lawsuits against the NCAA for the penalties it handed down on the university. Give it a rest folks. Take your medicine. Quit behaving like children. Own up to what happened. The whole Sandusky mess happened on Paterno's watch. Ultimately he was responsible. He could have turned Sandusky into the police; instead he turned a blind eye.

Bob Dylan
3 stars
Bob Dylan
3 stars
Not to be morbid, but every time I take a day off or leave for vacation, I say a little prayer for the health of Bob Dylan.
So large is his presence on generations of American music fans that when his heart strikes its final beat, encapsulating his body of work will require so much sorting and brainpower that the pressure to produce big thoughts on such a towering figure will no doubt overwhelm the Internet — and my ability to process his enormous influence.
"I ain't dead yet, my bell still rings," Dylan sings on "Early Roman Kings," from his new album "Tempest," as if to reassure me. On a blues that directs its wrath at the selfish rich in the same way that "Masters of War" indicted the military-industrial complex in 1963, the singer and songwriter ends the line with "I keep my fingers crossed like the early Roman kings."
You and me both, Bob.
PHOTOS: Iconic rock guitars and their owners
And not just for selfish reasons. Dylan lives in every molecule of our being, has taught us about lyrical possibility, has reveled in the joy of words and the power and glory of making things up from scratch. To learn that a new Dylan project is in the works is to know that there's a good chance your brain will be forever changed by at least one new rhyming couplet, snarling oath or graceful guitar line.
On "Tempest," out next week, there are many such moments. At their best, new songs such as "Scarlet Town," "Tin Angel" and "Roll On, John" show an artist swirling in musical repetition and the joy of longevity. Each is longer than seven minutes and each deserves to be heard again the moment it ends. He mixes these longer narratives with a few four-minute, expertly crafted gems that float like whittled wooden birds come to life — especially "Long and Wasted Years," a bitter song about a dead marriage.
And at its least successful — the 14-minute title track about the sinking of the Titanic and "Narrow Way," which rolls like "Maggie's Farm" with a flat tire — "Tempest" confirms that even a master craftsman sometimes needs an editor.
But few American writers, save Mark Twain, have spoken so eloquently and consistently at such a steady, honest clip, and the evidence continues on "Tempest," Dylan's 35th studio album in 50 years of recording.
Yes, a master storyteller is at work, and he's got an attitude, but that's not news. It's been pounded into our collective brains for half a century now. He is officially an antique, a relic and the last of his kind in a world that has little time or patience to focus on a 14-minute song about the sinking of the Titanic when everybody already knows how it ends. This is the big, grand miscue on the record. In an Irish-tinged tune that repeats virtually the same 16-bar melody throughout its quarter-hour, Dylan in poetic verse recounts the sinking and the fate of its passengers with a singsong phrasing that grows tiresome.
Few appreciate his outsize legend more than Dylan, who produced this record under his pseudonym Jack Frost and has long tired of his renown. "People today are still living off the table scraps of the '60s," he once said. "They are still being passed around — the music and the ideas."
"Tempest" is more concerned with the scraps of the '20s, '30s and '40s, as Dylan continues to explore the various strands of early American roots music that he internalized as he matured, sticking to basic instrumentation: guitar, drums, bass, violin, banjo and the occasional accordion. You can hear a touch of Charlie Christian guitar in the opening bars of "Duquesne Whistle," suggesting an old 78-rpm record; Hank Williams' sorrow sneaks in, as does Dylan's long fascination with string bands of the 1920s, such as the Mississippi Sheiks.
Coupled with a deeply wounded voice, he sounds deadly serious throughout, especially so in "Roll On, John," his tribute to his friend John Lennon, even though he slips in many wry one-liners. The first time I heard it, it bummed me out. It seemed treacly, unnecessary. But as the song settled into my head, it became not a song about the death of a Beatle but about the passing of a friend and peer.
Stories told by a man in his 70s are taken with more weight than a man in his 20s. And when said man sounds like he's been eating nuts and bolts for the past half-century and he's a born storyteller, a living legend and trickster, said weight gets even heavier. At this point, Dylan could write about the shoe selection at Bloomingdale's and it would be construed as a commentary on America.
But finally, the record underscores his real strength, as a musical storyteller. This is a man, after all, who can smoothly transmit the notion of being tongue-tied as such:
"I'm searching for phrases/To sing your praises," he admits in "Soon After Midnight," a perfect little Bob Wills-informed, slow-swinging vignette involving a gal named Honey who took his money, a narrator with a cheerful, "never fearful" life, Charlotte who's a harlot and dresses in scarlet and Mary who dresses in green. In 31/2minutes he sets a memorable scene — one that turns black when Two Timin' Slim's name comes up.
"I'll drag his corpse through the mud," Dylan jealously declares, wallowing in his voice's decrepitude. "It's soon after midnight, and I don't want nobody but you."

Enduring severe pain, bone marrow transplant needed from teen's sister
- Last Updated on 06:03 AM 08/09/13
- BY Tiffany Hudson
It was only a 25 percent chance. Fifteen-year-old Zoi Bailey was diagnosed with Sickle Cell Anemia at birth and suffers from severe pain crisis.
Her visits to the hospital once were two to three times a year, once a month and currently are every two weeks.
According to her mother, Lisa Morris, when the trips to the hospital became more frequent doctors suggested a bone marrow transplant to lessen the pain and give her a better quality of life.
"It was a blessing," said Morris of the news of a match.
"She has an amazing team of specialists at MCV," said Morris.
However, when Zoi's brother and sister were tested doctor's warned Morris it would only be a 25 percent chance that either of them would be a match and it would be a possibility that she would have to be added to the donor list.
Zoi's parents both had the trait, which was passed to her but none of her siblings have Sickle Cell Anemia, said Morris.
"When they called to tell me the news she asked was I standing or sitting down and we were both almost crying because it was just such a blessing," said Morris.
Her brother, Zion and her sister, Zolae were both a match.
But doctor's felt more comfortable going forward with the procedure with her sister, 11-year-old Zolae.
So the long road trips to Richmond to MCV medical center began, where the two sisters have been undergoing all the necessary testing to make sure they're healthy enough for the procedure to take place within the next month.
Morris said the process began about four months ago and it has been challenging for the family.
"Even though she struggles with her health, we don't struggle with our faith because God is who brought us through and will continue to every day," said Morris.
Zolae said she isn't scared to do the procedure and she knows that she, and her sister will be in the hospital at the same time, which is comforting.
"I just wanted her to stop having crises. I didn't like her being in pain all the time," said Zolae.
"Sometimes they see her in pain and they all end up crying," said Morris.
Young Zoi is in constant severe pain. When she has a severe pain crisis she curls up in pain, can't walk, has to have IV fluids, oxygen, medication and breathing treatments.
With Sickle Cell Anemia, the red blood cells can become sickle shaped and stick together and during a pain episode it can affect the entire body and last from a few hours to a few weeks or even be ongoing.
One of the biggest concerns Morris has for Zoi is infection.
"She can't swim in pools or certain water because it's so easy for her to get an infection," said Morris.
Through it all her mother said she has had some true friends who will come and sit with her at her doctor appointments, in her hospital room and just hang out.
"Brianna Parker, Christian Coleman and Tyasia Owen have really been there," said Morris.
Along with friends, Zoi has had support from her family especially her "devoted aunt" Jackie Morris.
"Anytime she is in the hospital, Jackie is going to make sure Zoi gets a teddy bear," said Morris.
And even though Zoi is limited to what activities she can do because of her condition, she still enjoys being with her friends and even looks forward to taking a trip to Myrtle Beach, S.C., after the procedure.
Following the transplant it will be a lengthy recovery process for Zoi but she hopes to be more active afterwards.
In an effort to offset medical expenses a musical benefit will be held for Zoi Sunday at 3 p.m. at the Mount Olive Baptist Church. Musical guests and speakers include Jeter Chapel Youth Choir, Crystal Hill Youth Choir, Genesis, soloists, Elder Brandon Smith, the Rev. Antori Brown, Minister Larry Burrell II and Overseer Myra Lykes and other invited guests and guest speakers.
For more information or to give a donation contact Jackie Morris at 434-446-8116 or Renee' McCargo at 434-222-6406.
Zoi is the daughter of Lisa Morris and Melvin Bailey and close family friend Marques Walker. She has two sisters and two brothers, Zolae Bailey, Jasmine Daniel, John Daniel and Zion Bailey and she resides in South Boston.

Summary | Excerpt | Reading Guide | Reviews | Beyond the book | Readalikes | Genres & Themes | Author Bio
Quentin Coldwater is brilliant but miserable. A senior in high school, hes still secretly preoccupied with a series of fantasy novels he read as a child, set in a magical land called Fillory. Imagine his surprise when he finds himself unexpectedly admitted to a very secret, very exclusive college of magic in upstate New York, where he receives a thorough and rigorous education in the craft of modern sorcery.
He also discovers all the other things people learn in college: friendship, love, sex, booze, and boredom. Something is missing, though. Magic doesnt bring Quentin the happiness and adventure he dreamed it would. After graduation he and his friends make a stunning discovery: Fillory is real. But the land of Quentins fantasies turns out to be much darker and more dangerous than he could have imagined. His childhood dream becomes a nightmare with a shocking truth at its heart.
At once psychologically piercing and magnificently absorbing, The Magicians boldly moves into uncharted literary territory, imagining magic as practiced by real people, with their capricious desires and volatile emotions. Lev Grossman creates an utterly original world in which good and evil arent black and white, love and sex arent simple or innocent, and power comes at a terrible price.
The Magicians
Quentin did a magic trick. Nobody noticed. They picked their way along the cold, uneven sidewalk together: James, Julia, and Quentin. James and Julia held hands. That's how things were now. Quentin trailed after them, feeling and looking like a sulky child. He would rather have been alone with Julia, or just alone period, but you couldn't have everything. Or at least the available evidence pointed overwhelmingly to that conclusion.
"Okay!" James said over his shoulder. "Q. Let's talk strategy."
James seemed to have a sixth sense for when Quentin was starting to feel sorry for himself. Quentin's interview was in seven minutes. James was right after him.
"Nice firm handshake. Lots of eye contact. Then when he's feeling comfortable, you hit him with a chair and I'll break his password and e-mail Princeton."
"Just be yourself, Q," Julia said.
Her wavy dark hair was pulled back in a bunch. Somehow it made it worse that she was always nice to him.
I loved every page of The Magicians. For anyone who grew up reading fantasy, who started with E. Nesbit or The Chronicles of Narnia or awaited each Harry Potter release, who openly or secretly continued to read fantasy wondering if it was appropriate to be drawn to tales of magic as an adult, this is a perfect read.

Lev Grossman's Worlds
Lev Grossman was born in 1969, the son of two English professors, and grew up in Lexington, MA, a placid little suburb of Boston. After obtaining a literature degree from Harvard and working towards a PhD in comparative literature at Yale, he gradually turned himself into a journalist and after a few years as a free-lancer, was hired by Time and became the magazine's book critic as well as one of its lead technology writers.
In 1997 Grossman published his first novel, Warp. It concerns the lyrical misadventures of a Boston slacker who has trouble distinguishing between reality and Star Trek.

Friends have been scouring the neighborhood, more than 15,000 Sherman Oaks residents were called, but Cooper the shy 6-year-old Australian shepherd is still missing.
Gordon Carnie, 60, said he is heartbroken, and would like his "boy" by his side before he is scheduled for surgery next week, Nov. 6 for pancreatic cancer.
"We've been getting a lot of calls, but no sightings yet," said Carnie's wife, Janet on Tuesday morning. "Gordon went in for treatment today, and he's still hoping."
It was a month ago, on Sept. 30 at 3:30 in the afternoon that Gordon took his three Australian shepherds to a dog groomer. They were walking along Ventura Boulevard between Kester and Cedros avenues. In front of the Mad Bull Tavern, 14704 Ventura Blvd. Cooper slipped out of his collar and ran west and into the street. He dodged a few cars down the busy boulevard, but got away.
Cooper is described as shy and sweet, about 55 pounds, male. He has a reddish brown coat and his super white fur fully around his neck and chest, forehead and paws. Cooper has copper colored eyes and no tail.
Carnie has been fighting pancreatic cancer for four years. He is scheduled for surgery next Tuesday and wanted the company of Cooper to help him lift his spirits and aid in his recovery.
Susan Beck, a spokesperson for the family, said Cooper is skittish, but neighbors and friends believe someone may have taken the dog in without knowing that his family is looking for him.
The neighborhood is plastered with signs. They have posted on Patch, Craigslist, scoured animal shelters, sent fliers to countless vets and launched a robocall to 15,000 neighbors through lostmydoggie.com. One person thought they saw the dog in Encino at Louise Avenue, but otherwise there have been no leads.
"I don't need to tell you, this is a tough cancer to fight, and my husband is fighting with every ounce of his energy," Janet said. "It would help to have Cooper back."
There is a $1,000 reward, no questions asked, for any information leading to Cooper's safe return home.
"We believe a well intentioned family may have taken our lost dog to their home," Janet said. "We just want our dog back and there will be no questions related to his return. Please keep your eyes peeled and be on the look out for our Cooper."
Maybe, Janet wonders, people can keep an eye out for him while canvassing the area while trick-or-treating.
Anyone with any knowledge or sighting of Cooper should call Carnie's wife, Janet, at (818) 486-6895 or (818) 486-9635. You can follow Coopers search @HELPFINDCOOPER on Twitter.

She was an icon in Pryor.
First woman mayor. On every committee or board in the county at one time or another. Still on several at age 90.
All that public service was wonderful and a great legacy — but that's not what Lucy Belle Schultz and I had in common. We were kindred spirits.
She was born and raised in New Mexico, which to me is truly the land of enchantment. She was from the wide open earth-toned landscape full of the whisper of cowboys and Indians.
She was raised in the back yard of the Lincoln County range wars, in the place where Billy the Kid is a hero.
That's not all. She was raised horseback with a bunch of famous ropers. Bob Crosby stayed at her house often. She sold tickets for years at one of the biggest steer ropings of the time in Portales.
When she discovered I go to ranch rodeos in her old home country, we had serious things to talk about. She made sure we went to the bar in Portales - which used to be the post office.
Her husband was a broker of Indian jewelry. Not a bunch of junk made in a factory and stamped with a tribe's name. Real one-of-a-kind pieces fashioned in a dwelling made of adobe bricks with a dirt floor. She'd come see me and be wearing 10 pounds of the most ornate pieces — we'd discuss each one.
Before Lucy Belle and Gene ended up in Pryor, they did a stint in the Deep South. She told how she got there wearing britches, 'cause she'd worn them all her life, and immediately became someone standing on the outside. Not because she dressed differently, but because she wanted to work. "No self-respecting woman worked," she told me. "They drank sweet tea and played cards. The help waited on them."
In Pryor, she and Gene eventually owned the Sherwin-Williams store, but she was a telephone operator. "That was back when we asked for 'number please' and connected you," she said. Calls were routed through other exchanges and one of the favorite jokes among operators was if a person wanted to call the town of Maud. The call had to be routed through the town of Bowlegs - so of course they said "to get to Maud you have to go through Bowlegs."
She had the most beautiful sparkling eyes and her hair had turned that particular silvery gray so many try to achieve with artificial color. I could see the trim ranch girl she had been, who loved to dance and knew who the bootleggers were.
She'd ask me about my horses and tell stories about the kind of situations you get into when you ride as a kid. Horses that run off and horses you make run off. Rides to school in the heat remembered. Horseback was the way newspapers were delivered when she was a girl in New Mexico.
We always had something to say. She was truly interested in my rodeo travels and I was enthralled with the stories of her life.
Oh, we could talk politics and she told me lots of great stories from that realm - but that's not really what we had to talk about. What we had to talk about was the West. The land of her birth. Where she came from and how she got here.
I like to think of her now, out there riding a good horse across Lincoln County. Where the land is enchanted.
Gone to the land of enchantment
She was an icon in Pryor.

Bob Doyle, Columnist
Cumberland Times-News
Twenty months ago, a powerful automated telescope in Hawaii discovered a faint comet as far as the giant planets are from the sun.
The comet is called PAN STARRS for the Panoramic Survey Telescope And Rapid Response System that discovered it. This 70-inch mirror telescope is devoted to a continuing search for asteroids and comets that may come close to the Earth.
This comet's orbit is close to a parabola so it is likely that this is the comet's first visit to the inner solar system.
There is a possibility that this comet may become a conspicuous object once it is heated by the sun at its closest approach on March 10. Comet PAN STARRS will then be closer to the sun than Mercury.
Close encounters of comets by space probes have found that comet cores are usually dark, except for fissures in their surfaces where powerful streams of water vapor and other gases erupt.
These gases give a comet an atmosphere called the coma (Latin for "hair") that is the brightest part of a comet. The coma for some comets have been bigger than the planet Jupiter. The much smaller solid part of the comet is called the nucleus, a dark space iceberg several miles across.
PAN STARRS is now visible in southern hemisphere skies. From a close study of its brightening, predictions are that PAN STARRS should be visible low in our western dusk using binoculars starting on March 12.
The sun will then be setting about 7:20 p.m. (Daylight Time will then be in effect). Forty-five minutes after sunset is the best time to see the comet. So a little after 8 p.m. observe from a place with a very flat western horizon.
Weather permitting, you will be able to spot a slender crescent moon. Then to the left and above the moon will be Comet PAN STARRS. You will likely see the comet as a "furry star." Its tail, if visible will be pointing away from the sun.
On the following nights the comet will shift farther to the right while the moon will climb well above the comet.
On March 16, the Cumberland Astronomy Club will be setting up telescopes on the North end of the Glendening Recreational Complex In Frostburg to observe PAN STARRS, the crescent moon and the planet Jupiter.
You are advised to arrive at early dusk (7:30 to 7:45 p.m.) so you can spot the telescopes set up in a parking area just off the end of the road. This telescope viewing session can only take place if it's clear.
There should be an even brighter comet seen in our December skies. Comet ISON was discovered by two Russian astronomers who are part of the International Scientific Optical Network.
Just as PAN STARRS, this comet is named after the network that found it. ISON differs from PAN STARRS as this comet is a sun grazer, a comet that will pass within a million miles of the sun's surface.
ISON seems to be big enough so that it will likely survive this close passage of the sun. Some smaller sun grazers have come apart due to the tidal forces and extreme heating by the sun.
On Nov. 28, Ison will make its closest approach to the sun. It will then rapidly move away from the sun and become visible in our dusk skies in December.
It is possible that comet ISON may be a very bright object with an easily seen tail. The comet's path will take it into our northern sky and near the North Star. Comet Ison may then be seen all through the night hours.
In March, I give a half-hour talk with accompanying visuals on the Hooved Animals of Northern Plains each Sunday at 4 p.m. (except Easter Sunday, March 31). After the talk, visitors are welcome to tour our wonderful collection of preserved mammals from five different continents.
These talks are held in the Science Discovery Center, just off the first-floor entrance of the Compton Science Center. Close by our first floor entrance is the construction site for the CCIT building, now more than half completed.
The CCIT building will have a multi-media auditorium with a digital planetarium projection system. In early 2014, our Sunday planetarium programs for the public will resume.
SKY SIGHTS AHEAD: The moon is now rising after midnight; it will appear half full in the southern dawn skies on Tuesday. Orion and the bright stars around it are now seen in the southwestern evening skies.
To the right of Orion is the bright planet Jupiter. The ringed planet Saturn can be seen before midnight low in the East. The best telescopic views of Saturn's rings will be at dawn when the planet is well up in the southern sky.

Meghan Casserly, Forbes Staff
Entrepreneurship. By women, of women, for women.
On a recent Monday morning, Kathryn Ferris, a 32-year-old financial analyst, had a weekly 6:15 appointment with her formal mentor at a lower Manhattan office for a 40-minute debrief of the previous work week. She spent the next 11 hours in front of three computer screens, checking in twice with the nanny about her three-year-old twins. At 6pm, when her male colleagues hit the gym before evenings out with clients, Faris caught the subway to the New York Public Library where her women's group meets for networking and advice twice a month.
Then it was back downtown to Cipriani to meet clients and colleagues. "There aren't many women in my group, and it seems to be general consensus that it's best to have at least one of us there when we're entertaining." As a result, she says she's out at least three nights a week. By 10 pm she was on the train to the New Jersey suburb where she lives, not catching a nap on the hour long ride, but working on a pitch she wanted to brainstorm with a mentor the next day. That's right, another one.
Ferris, who says she's been working at this pace since returning from maternity leave in 2009 finds it nearly impossible to compare her lifestyle with her male colleagues. "The guys come to work and go home. No one talks about career advancement strategy or mentoring with them, and yet they get the majority of the promotions." For Ferris and her female peers, however, the pressure is on. "I just don't feel like I can afford to pass up any opportunity, even if it means being 'on' way more than I want to."
"We're putting a lot on younger women," said Sallie Krawcheck, former president of global wealth & investing for Merrill Lynch at a recent ForbesWoman panel discussion. "[Telling them that] In order to be successful you need to ask for more money in this way, you need to raise your hand in that way, you need to do things that you weren't brought up to do or are not comfortable doing. By the way, you need to join this woman's network and go into that mentoring program… And what's happened is [that] we're not necessarily bringing women forward as much as we're just making them busier."
According to a 2011 report by Catalyst, "The Myth of the Ideal Worker," women are opting into career advancement strategies—mentoring, networking and the forfeiting of work-life balance—just as much if not more so than their male counterparts. However, even when women do everything they've been told to help them "get ahead," they continue to advance less than their male colleagues and see considerably slower pay growth. In other words, doing "all the right things," didn't make them "good enough" as their male peers. "This study busts the myth that 'Women don't ask.' In fact, they do! But it doesn't get them very far. Men, by contrast, don't have to ask. What's wrong with this picture?" says Ilene H. Lang, President & CEO of Catalyst.
So are we asking women to do too much? Considering the fact that even "doing it all" doesn't seem to be helping, that just might be the case. "By the way," Krawcheck added. "You're already doing three times the childcare and two times the housework so you're already busier [than your husband]. And then you've got to go to the mentoring programs?"
Seriously though: what gives?
Have you heard of the book Being Mary in a Martha World? It is based on a biblical story where one woman is running around preparing for a feast, while the other is sitting at the feet of her teacher and listening. The moral of the story is doing less is more. Probably not the message of any mentoring program, life coaching or seminars on getting ahead. But your article is staggering. The feminism battle cry "you can be more do more and have it all" is not making a difference after all these years, or , are we just too busy to notice?
I know my comments won't help but I just think it's a shame and possibly misguided effort where people, regardless of gender have to put this much effort into overcoming stereotypical issues in the office. The storyline of the woman that has a full-time Nanny to raise children so she can climb the corporate ladder. Why bother having children if they won't know their parent(s) due to being raised by someone else? It is still a male dominated workplace past a certain level of advancement and it must be frustrating to the 'nth' degree to have to compete in that environment at the expense of home life, children, relationships, etc. I'm not advocating quitting but I don't think any real gains will be made by women in the corporate structure until they are recognized and placed on merit and not considered for position (or lack therof) due to gender. Can it be done in the current world? Yes, but at what cost and more to the point, why should it be at the expense of family and relationships? What's to show for it at the end? That you adapted? That you improvised and overcame? My lord, if your children don't know you and your spouse / partner doesn't know you, was it really a success in the larger scheme of things? Regarding the sharing of the domestic duties, any woman that doesn't insist on her spouse splitting the work load is just delaying the inevitable split in the future and carrying additional, undeserving work in the meantime. Maybe I'm being pessimistic but if you're a woman and are desiring to climb the corporate ladder, and you're married, your spouse had best be someone a little more enlightened with regard to the work-life balance and participate accordingly.
"Why bother having children if they won't know their parent(s) due to being raised by someone else?" I think this is the single most important thing I have read here. All I could think reading this was "those poor kids" PRIORITIZE ladies! You can't have everything, so which is more important to you? Either work 80 hours a week and don't have kids, or have kids and accept that you may not make it quite so far up the ladder.
What strikes me is that studies show that women can help a business thrive yet the corporate culture has not changed, still expecting those women to play the "man's game". The companies that will shine in the 21st century are those that change their culture to be more … feminine: collaborative, holistic, community-oriented. Little girls have tea parties and little boys shoot each other. World hunger could be solved at a tea party but I don't see it happening at a shoot-out. Men (or women) who bring the qualities of the hunt to work don't need help getting ahead, it just comes naturally. But women (or men) who bring qualities of the tea party to work need help learning the hunt. So if corporate culture changes to embrace some qualities of the tea party, seeing them as agents of change and growth, women won't need to work so hard doing what is unnatural to them to get ahead.
This seems like a lot of generalizations. Not ALL companies will "outshine" by being "feminine." The "tea party" or the "hunt" way isn't always better. If my partner's business were to suddenly decide to be "feminine" they'd be out of business so fast… And why does this have to be a masculine vs feminine way of looking at things anyways? Doesn't this lead to a very "us vs them" on the part of both men AND women in the workplace? Oh, and actually hunger is solve MUCH quicker by animals that live by "only the strong survive" than it EVER has by negotiation.
To answer the question you posed, I would say that it is not necessarily one over another. I would never absolve myself of the responsibility to take responsibility for my own career, reputation, learning, etc. However, I wholeheartedly believe that there needs to be a fundamental shift in how women's leadership attributes and capabilities are viewed in relation to their male counterparts. Not that those attributes are deficient, but that they are different and in the end, reach the same goals as those that their male counterparts focus on. So the goals and results are the same, but the method is different — and that should be okay and recognized as okay.
I think that changes should be complemented, by first starting with changes at home by delegating the most exhausting activities to someone else/service company. Then if their corporations want to add a complimentary benefit to help absorb the cost, it will be the best scenario. But 'til that happens, women must resolve the delegation of household chores to a service company who are technologically adapted to fulfill their demands. This way women will be able to devote more time to focus on their careers and take their best path in their career success.
Great article about a discussion that must be held more often. Let me start off by saying that there is nothing that we, as women, are doing wrong to keep us from advancing – it is just the way it is – and that's the problem. We don't collectively challenge the status quo nor effectively support women who do. Let's be honest, corporations at large discriminate against women. Not one, two, or three, but thousands. The courts are bombarded with discrimination lawsuits claiming systemic discrimination against females. Do we honestly believe the "big lie" that "we" are not qualified? First we were educated enough. Then we didn't have the experience. Next, they compare us to a male counterpart and find that "we just don't measure up." Typically, the comparison is against a male who is mediocre, at best. Not to mention, he may be very junior in his role.
Do we really consider what it must take for women to get fed up and ban together to file a lawsuit – to lay it all on the table? When the brave women of Walmart came forward, and I used to be a loyal WalMart shopper, women should have stopped shopping at WalMart until they demonstrated equal pay and better opportunities for women.
There is nothing wrong with the way we dress, our hair, our walk, our personality, or the fact that on one line we're giving instructions to the nanny or daycare while on the other, we're leading a merger. We have a responsibility to make it better for the young women coming behind us. They live in a world that makes it a necessity for them to build wealth. There are more single women who must be self sufficient. Where once the man was the breadwinner, women are competing for the same jobs – and losing.
Let's be clear: we work at a company, on a job to make money. Period. It's not enough for me to be successful or you to be successful, but for "us" to break those barriers. The next time a WalMart presents itself, women need to be ready to make a statement. The next generation is depending on us.
If you take the gender variable out of the equation (in purely mathematical terms, recognizing that sociologically that is an extreme proposition), the question becomes how do you choose to respond to potential experiences in your life: spending your time and energy on corporate career advancement, on learning, on creating art, on creating family, etc etc. Someday, maybe, we will have the freedom to decide what experiences we want in our lives independent of what experiences we are expected to want in our lives. And this goes both ways. It would be great if during work/life balance conversations in the workplace, men felt more readily comfortable considering the option of slowing career advancement in order to spend more time during a critical growth period for their kids. To me, that would be a truer indicator of real progress in taking the gender bias out of corporate culture. Women have made it to a lot of tables they didn't have access to before. There are many more we want to achieve, but until our culture does not make a fuss about men coming to more tables traditionally considered women's, then we will still have to "do it all" in order to reach more tables ourselves.

Beans are loaded with fiber. If you are using canned beans, you can reduce their sodium content by choosing reduced-sodium brands or draining the liquid and rinsing the beans before serving them. Each 1/2 cup serving of beans has about 7 grams of fiber.
If beans give you indigestion or gas, here are some tips that will help solve this problem:
- After soaking dried beans, drain them, and then cook them in fresh water. It may also help to add a pinch of baking soda to the soaking water.
- Make sure the beans are thoroughly cooked. Adding a strip of kombu, a sea vegetable, to the beans during cooking can also be helpful.
- Drain and rinse canned beans.
- Start with small servings and then work your way up to bigger portion sizes.
- Commercial enzymes such as Beano can be added to the cooked bean right before you eat them. Adding a few drops will not change the flavor but can help with digestion.
Research published in the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry indicates that black beans are as rich in antioxidant compounds called anthocyanins as grapes and cranberries, fruits long considered antioxidant superstars.

In setting up the Global Student Embassy program at Analy High School (left), Jasper Oshun says they departed from the models of other existing student exchange programs.
Lucas Oshun says they selected the two participating South American towns, rural Zurite, Peru and and bustling Santa Fe, Argentina (below) in part because of the contrasts between them.
Created by two brothers from Sebastopol, Lucas and Jasper Oshun, the Global Student Embassy is "building leaders by connecting the world's youth to practice social responsibility and community service." The program is intended to educate and increase community responsibility amongst teens from all three participating towns.
On November 14th, the Sebastopol Community Cultural Center will host the Global Student Embassy's Fundraising Dinner. For tickets and information, click here.

When Todd Yohn looks back at his 31 years as a stand-up comic, memories of performing at famed comedy club Goodnight's rush forth from his memory bank.
"That's because I started there in 1981," Yohn says, calling from his Winston-Salem home. "I remember making $400 a month there as MC, which was pretty good money back then. It was an awesome time. It was Charlie Goodnight's back then and it was one of the three top comedy nightclubs in the country. I would work from Tuesday through Sunday. It was an incredible time since it was fun, a learning experience and that's where it all began for me."
Yohn, 56, who will perform Friday and Saturday at Goodnight's, has enjoyed a steady career. He has appeared on HBO, Comedy Central and Showtime.
The charismatic father of three adult children delivers stand-up, music and improv. Some of the most fun Yohn has is making up songs on the spot.
"It's so liberating doing that," he says. "I can take someone's name, where they're from and what they do and I can come up with a song about them hating their job on the spot. Last week in Ohio, I wrote a song on the spot about a Riverfest they never had there. It's fun to just make that stuff up and run with something offbeat."
Yohn understands that the most uproarious laughter typically is triggered by comedy made up out of the ether.
"There is nothing more correct than that fact," he says. "A lot of young guys have no idea that the crowd erupts when something happens in the moment. They're so caught up in what brilliant bit they came up with. But in the moment is when I'm most excited as a performer. I love just coming up with that funny bit as the show is progressing. That always trumps the clever prepared material."
Yohn is loose, goofy and unpredictable. "I like being the way I am. I'm not political. I know we have a big presidential election but I'm not going to talk about that. I'll leave that to Dennis Miller and those guys. What I'm about is just taking you away from all of the crazy things that are going on in the world. I want the audience to forget about everything and just have a few deep belly laughs."
His trade was honed by working Goodnights a generation ago but that seems so long ago to Yohn that it may as well have been the Paleolithic era.
"It's crazy how much has changed since then," he says. "When I step into Goodnight's, I'll think about how the Triangle embraced all kinds of humorists back in the day. They loved the observational, those who did the monologs, those who were physical comics. I fit in there somewhere and the cool thing is that I'm still grinding it out and loving what I do."

Variocele and Hydrocele
Hydrocele is a fluid-containing sac that arises in the lining of the testis. Variocele is dilation (enlargement) of the spermatic veins. Both of these conditions can mimic testicular cancer as they occur as masses near the testis.
The only clear risk factor for development of testicular cancer is cryptorchidism (undescended testis). Other risk factors that have been suggested in small reports but not confirmed in larger trials include HIV infection, viral infection of the testis, and vasectomy. We are not aware of any association between the development of testicular cancer and either variocele or hydrocele.
Small varioceles or hydroceles may allow testicular self-examinations but larger ones may obscure palpation (feeling of) the testis. In the latter situations, there are several option for men to continue careful screening for testicular cancer. One option is surgical excision of the variocele or hydrocele. Another option is yearly ultrasound examinations, and a third option is checking bloodwork for laboratory values that may be elevated in some testicular cancers (e.g., Beta-HCG and alpha fetoprotein).
We recommend that you discuss these options with your urologist.

President Lyndon Johnson traveled to Martin County, Kentucky to declare what he called a war on poverty.
He did it from Tom Fletcher's front porch and the images for that visit became a lingering symbol of hard times in Appalachia. It made Martin County a popular background for politicians touting their plans for improving the area's economy -- most recently presidential hopeful John McCain.
Things have improved since President Johnson's visit in 1964, but the region still lags behind the rest of the nation as a new generation looks to the future.
