Surname Saturday – Government Approved, Part 3
Sorry for the long delay, school has been absolutely out of hand! But the summer arrives a week from now, so hopefully there will be more time to write here. I believe I've caught up on my email correspondence recently as well, so if you haven't received a response from me, please resend your email, just in case technology made emails vanish somewhere along the way.
Onto the names! These follow earlier posts of Government Approved, Part 1 and Government Approved, Part 2. Part 4 still to come!
This week's category: Names from Nature – animals, plants and anything "from the earth". I'd consider this the most common category of Latvian surnames. Though if you don't see your exact name here, don't panic – the authorities did not recommend diminutive forms, but most often people disregarded that and went with them anyway. So if your surname looks like a name on this list, but ends in -iņš or -ītis instead, it will have that same origin. As before, modern renditions in brackets. If I am not familiar with a name, I've made my best guess as to how it would be rendered in modern spelling.
The book divides these names into separate categories, based on animal/plant category, so I will do the same.

Very gentle, with no discernible fragrance. I always remove my make up with oil first, and use this with my Clarisonic to remove any traces of residue. It is also perfect for the morning time, when I just want to wash the dullness of sleep off my face. Starting to really love this brand.
I have super sensitive skin and this product is pretty good. My face is still a little dry after use but not as bad as some other products.
I use this as my first step in my nightly cleansing routine. It took me a while to realize its best to rub the product in your hands then wipe all over the face. Then rub off the product using a cotton pad.
This does a wonderful job getting my face makeup off but I need to use another product to get my mascara off.
Good product but I feel there are better out there
I thought this cleanser was very gentle on my skin and felt very nice. Unfortunately it didn't remove my tough eye makeup like I had hoped. This was nice to use with my clarisonic when I need a gentle cleanse. It's great for travel, but not effective enough for my daily use.
Many cleansers dry out my face, especially during the winter. I can use this one every night and it doesn't dry out my face at all, but still makes it feel clean, even during the dry winter months.
I have very dry skin during winter. This cleanser did not dry out my face like other cleansers. Definitely recommend for people with dry skin.
This is a great facial cleanser for when your skin is a little too dried out to use something stronger. I use it with my ultrasonic brush so it cleansed my skin really well but also left it feeling soft. Perfect for the winter time!
This didn't cause me any problems at all with sensitivity or fragrance. My skin felt soft after using. I agree with others that it's not enough for a full face of makeup. I only used it for a BB cream & some blush. I don't think it would get the whole work days worth of makeup off.
I did like the wash, it was gentle on my face. Smell of product is nice and not overbearing. Soap did not dry out my face.
This is a really cool idea and great to use when I don't have time to wash my face with water. It smells really great, but I am not sure that it really cleans that well. My face does feel refreshed after using it!

Duel is between Alonso and Vettel, says Barrichello
Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel will be the last two standing in this year's title race, according to Rubens Barrichello.
With nine races remaining this season, five drivers stand a realistic chance of winning this year's Drivers' Championship although with 225 points still to play for there are more who are mathematically still in the hunt.
Alonso is leading the battle with 164 points, 40 ahead of Mark Webber who holds a slim two-point advantage over his Red Bull team-mate Vettel. Lewis Hamilton is five more off the pace in fourth place with Kimi Raikkonen one point behind the McLaren driver.
However, when the season draws closer to the final race in Brazil, Barrichello believes only Alonso and Vettel will be left standing.
"Alonso is in the form of his life," the former Formula One driver told Auto Motor und Sport.
"He's not in the fastest car but he makes the most of it and now his pursuers are taking points off each other.
"In the end it will result in a duel between Alonso and Vettel."
Barrichello was also asked to weigh in on his former team-mate Michael Schumacher who will contest his 300th grand prix in Monza next month.
"I like the way he has decided to approach the matter and I knew that it would be difficult after a three year break to immediately regain a foothold," said the Brazilian.
Speaking about Schumacher, prompted Barrichello to give his thoughts on F1's other returnee World Champ, Kimi Raikkonen. "It has really surprised me then how many fewer problems Kimi has had with it."

The Good,the Bad,and the Ugly: Game 34 vs the Knicks
|Posted by shawn cassidy on January 8, 2013 at 8:00 AM
The Good
Green shines in the "Big Apple"
We never know when Jeff Green will show up, or even show up big. But when the Celtics needed him most he stepped against the Knicks. Jeff played a key role when Pierce was hit with foul trouble early. Green stepped with 16 points, and 6 rebounds, and amazing on defense guarding Melo. If this is what we get out of Green, than so be it. As long as he gains confidence. It was nice to see Green when it mattered.
Bradley the Savior
Avery was a menace against the Knicks, and they didn't want any part of it. But Bradley knows what he's doing, and Doc needs the best defense he can get. Bradley has been struggling to find his shot. In New York Avery was 6-of-11 finding his jumper, and many cut plays to the basket. We know what to expect out of Bradley on defense. But when he gives you 11 plus points. It's all gravy. The Celtics have been themselves since the return of Bradley. It must feel good for the ego.
The Celtics second half defense
The Celtics seem to be putting on the clamps in the second half. Especially in the third quarter. The Celtics allowed just 9 points against the Hawks, and 16 against the Knicks. That's big since the Celtics gave up 35 points in the second quarter. The defense is back, and the credit has been given to Bradley. He's shown so much to everyone, and he sets the tone.
Barbosa sighting
With Rondo out the Celtics had to dig deep. Barbosa was big early in the season with big scoring games. Barbosa had 8 solid points in 13 minutes. Barbosa is quick easy points.
The Bad
Chandler active on the offensive glass
Chandler had 8 offensive rebounds, and he helped the Knicks with second chance points. The Celtics did a lot of things right, but they didn't control the offensive glass, and they lost overall on the rebounding totals 42-36.
The Ugly
Three points bombs
The Celtics could have lost this game if the Knicks made a few more three's. They made 14 3's against the Celtics. And the Celtics this season have struggled guarding the three-point line. The Celtics were trying to cut off the driving lanes, but the Knicks took advantage of it by hitting three after three. The Celtics seemed to fix the problem.

Asiatic Lilies: Star-shaped flowers bloom earlier than other Lily varieties.
Tiger Lilies: A garden staple in all regions, known for uniquely-spotted blooms.
Trumpet Lilies: Large, incredibly-fragrant flowers illuminate the summer garden.
Wild Lilies: Easy to grow and some of the world's most magnificent wildflowers. Hailing from North America all the way to China, these are the granddaddies of them all--the ones from which all the beautiful new lily flower bulbs were created. Many carry legendary stories about how they were "discovered," many are even more hardy than the hybrid bulbs, and some people think the originals are also the most beautiful.

We're always skeptical when products promise the sun and the moon, but Dr. Jart's Premium Beauty Balm truly delivers. A four-in-one primer, moisturizer, sunscreen, and treatment serum, the formula helps you cut down on the beauty cabinet clutter. Plus, this BB cream has advanced brightening properties and anti-aging benefits. Even Martha Stewart can't boast multitasking skills quite like this.
I can not say enough about how amazing this product is. It has evened out my skin tone and I finally said farewell to those annoying dry patches.
I don't typically wear any type of liquid makeup or foundation, but once I tried this I absolutely fell in love with it. I usually have dry skin, but this moisturizes and covers amazingly! I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who wants quick, light coverage.
I love this product for the coverage and the UV protection, definitely one of my favorite samples and purchases from Birchbox!
blends on skin well, conceals blemishes and dark spots at the same time as healing them. not crazy about 45spf but great protection. matched my skin tone spectacularly
I love this product a a base before I apply my make-up. This product makes my skin look hydrated and healthy. I love the way my skin looks after I apply.
I absolutely love this product! It works great for a moisturizer and foundation. The balm lasts all day. The only thing that I did not like was the packaging. The bottle is not squeezable which left a lot of product at the bottom hard to get to. I was able to use q-tips to get enough out for quite a few days. Would buy this again, though.
I normally wear foundation but this new BB creme makes my face look flawless and I can hardly feel it on my skin unless other thick concealers. Great buy!
I love this cream! I have been using as a coverup for many months now and can't wait to get more! I highly recommend this cream. It really evens out my skin tone.
I absolutely love this product! I love the SPF, the coverage, the brightening, smoothing of this product! Definitely adding to my arsenal
I bought this on the recommendation of my sister...who has never been a huge makeup junkie. She swore by it and promised that I would love it.
Well...I do. It offers excellent coverage, but is very light...not sticky or greasy in the least.
When I first saw the color, I worried because it looked a little "ashy"...but I put it on, rubbed it in and somehow it matches exactly to your skintone.
There is something about it that makes me skin just feel healthy while I'm wearing it too. It feels softer, cleaner and not like I'm wearing anything.
I will never, ever be without this product!
P.S. A little goes a long way, so if you're concerned about the price, don't be.

When I first saw
Blazing Angels
on the Xbox at E3 a few years ago, the game looked impressive indeed. The environments were impressive and the amount of planes on the screen invoked the feeling of a grand aerial battle. With the transition to the Xbox 360 though,
Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII
gives the next generation console owner an above average game.
Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII
puts you in the seat of various WWII fighters and bombers commanding an elite squadron of four pilots including you. Along for the ride in most missions are Tom, Joe, and Frank. Each pilot has a specialty that will help you through the game. Tom can draw off any enemies on your tail. Frank's the Max Sterling of the group in that he can take out enemies left and right and now break a sweat. If you're in need of repair, you call on Joe to help patch you up. When available, each pilot can be called upon by a push of the directional pad. After you use them, you won't be able to call on them again for a short period of time. You can use them as many times as you wish so long as you wait for the requisite amount of time to pass.
Because Frank and Tom are so effective, they sometimes make the game too easy. When a few Germans are on your tail, calling on Tom will always result in any enemy aircraft to break off their attack on you. It would've been nice to have some randomness in terms of if the chasing airplanes would stop following you and go after Tom. Frank's an even bigger advantage in that he'll take down three or four fighters before he's done. I almost felt cheating when asking Frank to take out a few fighters because he was so deadly.
If you're in need of repair, you'll be treated to a mini-game of four button pushing sequences when Joe is called upon. No matter how badly damage you are, a successful completion of the button sequence will result in a fully repaired and operational plane. Messing up in the sequence will cause you to waste your repair and you'll be forced to wait until you can call on Joe again. Since you can use it an unlimited of times, the repair feature can make certain levels really easy thus allowing you to relax a bit. I also found that the father you get into the game, the easier the sequence gets. No two buttons repeat in the later levels so when the symbols pop up, you know they won't be displayed again as you finish off the sequence.
Your squadron is pretty much invulnerable so you won't have to worry about them. I've always found relying on NPCs to be a lot better in games when you aren't spending too much time trying to protect them. The developers took that variable out of the equation so you can concentrate on keeping yourself alive and there will be times in the second half of the game where the action's hot and hectic and you'll be glad the other three can fend for themselves. I did say pretty much invulnerable as there's a mission or two where you have to protect Joe but that's about the extent of keeping your buddies alive.
Ubisoft has made the controls pretty easy for anyone to pick up. The left stick is used to control the pitch and yaw while the right stick controls the speed and roll. By combining the two, you'll be able to perform some impressive maneuvers when dog fighting. Pressing down on the right stick will also activate any secondary weapon such as bombs or missiles. Some missions will simulate spinning the propeller by having you start the plane via rotating an analog stick. Overall, it wasn't too hard to get used to so you shouldn't have too much trouble picking up the gamepad and flying under control.
Enemies encompass ground, sea, and air units. You'll be asked ot take out a convey in some missions, ace German fighters in another, and even some ships with your missiles. Thankfully, the enemies are pretty well labeled so that you're not going to be firing on your allies. Each type of enemy is also represented by a different symbol so you can easily tell what type of enemy unit they are. This can help in some missions where you're equipped with missiles and need to take out some ground targets: just line up and fire away before you are in their range.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Dirty and True
Your Rating
Local comedian/actress Melanie Dahling's one-woman show certainly seems intent on living up to its title — the hour-long mix of monologue and musical is equal parts comedy, confessional and self-focused crisis counselling, as the writer/star plumbs deep into her checkered dating history and speaks frankly about her evolution as a sexual being.
Her love life, it turns out, has been underscored (and largely defined) by her deep affection for Canadian singer/songwriter Hawksley Workman, whose smouldering looks and romantic insights set a bar too high for any non-Hawksley male to reach. Dahling's ease as a standup performer keeps her rambling and sometimes distracted dirty/true musings entertaining, but the musical elements — backed by onstage musician/co-star/line prompter Lukas Thiessen — don't always hit the right notes. Overall, this work in progress is an exhaustive emotional history which threatens to become exhausting.
— Brad Oswald
From the Fringe program:
One night when Melanie Dahling was up late with insomnia and a bag of chips, she made a life changing musical discovery. Hawksley Workman was base and vulgar and made her feel new kinds of "down there feelings." Watch as she follows those feelings into a series of thoroughly unsatisfying relationships with starving artists and comedians.
Dirty and True is a story of love, betrayal, and dick jokes.

God is eternal with no beginning and beyond the principle of cause and effect of this universe. He is the one who created this universe and its principles and dimensions. This can be explained religiously and scientifically.
Religiously speaking, scriptures make it clear that God is different from the rest of the universe in his attributes and characteristics. Holy Quran gives us a lot of characteristics of God of which 99 are more popular.
Quran clearly says "there is nothing whatever like unto Him" (42:11), "visions comprehend Him not, but He comprehends all visions. He is the Subtle, the Aware" (6:103), "He is the Originator of the heavens and the earth" (6:101), and "He is the only One and Eternally Besought" (112:1-2).
Scientifically speaking there are four dimensions in this universe. The first three are length, width and height, and the fourth is time and space, which results in action and reaction or cause and consequence. We are prisoners of these dimensions. We see everything as cause and consequence in time. But time is a product of this universe and did not exist before this universe. If nothing ever moved in this universe there would be no time.
Modern physics confirms that there are many more dimensions that we cannot perceive. God transcends all these dimensions. The human mind can't comprehend this universe so far. How can it conceive its designer and creator?
Muhammad Haq, Anniston Islamic Center
The creator of all things cannot be created
What sound does the color yellow make? What does a b-flat taste like? These are the kinds of questions that have no answer because they are asking the wrong thing. To ask who or what came before God is also asking the wrong thing, at least when it comes to the Abrahamic faiths and other monotheistic religions. It assumes that God exists simply by the creative power of someone or something else.
If there was someone or something that caused God, then that being/thing must be greater than God simply because it possessed the power to create God. So, logically, we would have to recognize that being as God and then ask the question again, who or what caused God (i.e. the being/thing that caused what we previously recognized as God)? It is the sort of question that spirals out of control as one refuses to acknowledge that God was, is and always will be, that God's existence is not caused, for God is the one who causes existence.
Perhaps a word from the Apostle Paul would fit well here, for as he spoke to an eclectic gathering at the Areopagus in Athens he spoke the words of an ancient poet in speaking about the existence of God: "In him we live and move and have our being." God causes existence; therefore, to ask what causes God is to ask the wrong question.
Chris Thomas, First Baptist Church of Williams,Jacksonville
