Song Story
"Beautiful Things"
By Michael Gungor
With Andrea Hunter
Lisa and Michael Gungor and the musical collective that bears their name (Gungor) have had a profound impact on worship recently. Far flung creativity, expansive themes, deep reflection, playful whimsy and a conucopia of instruments and genres characterize their delightful and compelling mash of styles. Live performance with them is a total sensory experience. Michael's been leading worship since he was 12—twenty years, and singing with Lisa and releasing albums for more than half of that, but the album Beautiful Things, and especially its title song captured the heart and imagination of the Church. One could say, it was heaven sent, just when it was desperately needed. Both for a couple in the mountains of Colorado and a world in the midst of terrible conflict, cataclysmic disasters, economic, and emotional turmoil.
"Lisa and I had started a little church in Denver, Colorado." Michael begins, "As all who have been part of that sort of thing know, it's a lot of work. It can be quite emotionally draining to have all of these dreams and ideas in your heart while you also have eyes in your head. You see this gulf between what you want and the reality of what is. Aside from that, we had been trying to have a child for years, and that was quite wearing. We had also had a lot of people around us going through a lot of pain—miscarriages, divorce, and so on. Basically, we were just experiencing and witnessing a lot of pain."
Pain in the Offering
"Lisa had this little chorus come to her: 'You make beautiful things out of the dust.' And at first, she didn't quite know what to do with it. She actually had been quite affected by all the pain around us and had started doubting the goodness of God. She had a hard time even singing the phrase. She didn't know if she believed it. So she just walked away from it for a while. A couple months I think. Then she kind of had this moment where she felt like God opened her eyes to his goodness again. Like he was saying 'Don't you think my love is stronger than this pain?' She was finally ready to write the song. She brought it to me, and we finished writing it together."
All this pain
I wonder if I'll ever find my way
I wonder if my life could really change at all
All this earth
Could all that is lost ever be found
Could a garden come up from this ground at all
Lisa and Michael tapped into the deep grief echoing in so many hearts, "Pain is as common as skin," says Michael, "We all experience it. It unites us all." Fortunately, that's not the whole story. They voiced their/our need, yet didn't leave us languishing. "In Beautiful Things," they also unearthed shimmering hope. They reminded us of the truth. That when God made the earth, he said, "It is good." His creation is good and beautiful around us, in us.
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
Though the song became ours, it was written in the context of Bloom, the church Michael and Lisa founded, and like most newborns, the church, was fragile, lovely and in the midst of growing pains.
Beautiful and Broken
"Our congregational songs are primarily written for our congregation in Denver, and so yes, the 'us' in that song is referring to this unlikely bonding of people from all sorts of situations, backgrounds and ideas. We, in our pain and brokenness, are a bit like dust. But to God, we are his vessels to bring beauty into the world. This idea should absolutely have a drastic effect on how we see and relate to every human being."
If you ask Michael if he and Lisa had a sense of the powerful reach of this song when it was birthed, he simply says, "No. I'm not very good at telling that kind of thing. I sometimes write songs that I think are going to change the world, and nothing happens with them. And I've written songs that really started picking up steam that I had no idea would do anything. But I did really like 'Beautiful Things' from the beginning. And it really meant a lot to the people in our community as well as to Lisa and I. It's been cool to see others inspired by the song as well."
Taking Jesus Seriously
And just as the roots of their song began at Bloom, their music also leads back to the mission of that community of worshipers. Their website declares:
Our quest is to take Jesus—his life, his teaching, his death, his resurrection—more seriously than we take any other thing. That's pretty much how we understand what the word 'Christian' means. … We love to partner with God in His work, which is the healing of the world.
"Musically, we just finished a live album that we recorded throughout our spring tour. Almost all of the songs are songs we've already recorded, but the live thing adds an element that you can't get in the studio to these songs. We've been touring a lot these last couple years, and while I've enjoyed it and been thankful for it, I have also felt like I need to give some of my focus back to my local congregation. It's a beautiful group of people, and I see Gungor as an extension of them into the world. I guess we're Bloom missionaries in a sense. I just feel like the kind of music we make needs to stay connected to an actual local congregation rather than some nameless, faceless 'Church'"
Getting Real
When queried what Michael believes God is speaking to him, his church, and the church at large he answers "One thing I've been aware of as a church songwriter lately is that our songs can tend towards becoming band aids for our pain rather than ways of actually engaging God in honest way through our pain. I wrote a blog recently about how well over half of the Psalms are laments and how almost none of the top CCLI songs are. It seems we aren't comfortable with that level of honesty in much of the Church today. Because of this, I've been trying to write some lament lately. It's not always easy stuff to sing, but those who are sick need a doctor, not a band aid."
Newness Realized
However that plays out in Gungor's music, it is irrefutable that "Beautiful Things" has been much needed medicine. And its words have proven true for Michael and Lisa: "You make me new, you are making me new." Their struggle to have a child was rewarded with Amelie Isabelle Pearl six months after the release of the album. The new arrival has impacted (made new) almost every aspect of their life.
"It's changed everything." Michael reflects. "She's absolutely incredible, and we have so much fun. Travel, schedule, practice—all of that kind of stuff has become more complicated for sure. Still, I wouldn't trade these moments for anything in the world. Not even sleep."
Pull Quote
"Pain is as common as skin. We all experience it. It unites us all."

Re: Hemlock Grove - Netflix Original Horror serie
I'd say spoilers are welcome since it'll all be up at once. I'll probably work it into my rotation (I usually watch three or four things at a time on Netflix), but if other people binge and want to discuss the whole thing they should feel free to do so. I might have a mod add a spoiler warning once the show is released.
According to Wikipedia it's going to be a full 13 episode season.
Over the course of many encounters and many years, I have successfully developed a standard operating procedure for dealing with big, nasty monsters. Run away. Me and Monty Python.

The graph with my car is not the one that i got on the day?
Which is the correct one , there both 2.0 S3's!
post 107
Ive just printed the NEW plot off and i'll be going down to Awesome in a bit for some info!
If i'm not happy i'll ask for a free run!
Where is spins car?
My movie doesnt work for me, gutting!
Mine seems to be right (well it's the one I got on the day)
Just back from Awesome , the plots we got on the day are the correct graphs , worked out using DIN? the new one's are OUR plots , but worked out using another method ( they made a mistake when uploading them ) they will use the DIN plots and re-upload them to the site!
I asked them to tell me my fly wheel/BHP figure they said " we can't be 100% accurate , but between 286-296BHP " .
They know all about this Tfsi engaine making more than book , but they were still surprised when i told them it was STD.
Awesome either need to re-train their Techs or recalibrate their dyno.
Thanks for your efforts though P.
They said " your car looks chipped from the plot " i told them it's STD and Mitch78 car made the same and thats STD!
Mitch78 did you buy your BRAND new?
I never bought my car BRAND new it was a Audi reps car and it could of been fiddled with!
If these figures are correct ( only a second opinion RR can prove it ) then thats why some people can't tell the difference when they get it remapped!
As i said in the other Awesome RR day thread , when spin140 took me out in his Hammer mapped car it felt faster , BUT wasn't night and day compared to my car!
We have 2 S3's in the company, one is mine (07 with Revo) the other is a 08 standard (both identical in colour/spec etc) and having driven miles together mine is certainly faster both in feel and on the road.
As mentioned before I would be up for another RR session with the 8P S3's if any of you guys are also up for it?...I could also persude the other S3 of ours to come along.
Me three :P
I've sold the S3 but would attend anyway as long as not Awesome, what about JBS in chesterfield ?
What about here , they hold Scooby RR days all the time , and as we know there AWD/4WD so they should have the costdown/correction down pat!
Just noticed they deal in VAG servicing also , maybe a Awesome alternative? REVO anyone?:jump:
A bit of a distance for me mate, 97 miles or 1 hr 50 mins according to the supplied map.
Not out of the question though as the set up looks good.
I've used Propsort for many years for Subaru's and can utterly recommend (Pter wo owns the place) for quality and attention to detail.
They are also Revo dealers and are wanting to get into more Audi servicing etc. Will be taking my car for its oil change there when its due !
I think we need a GOOD 4wd set up or else it's just 100% guess for the boys who have quattro!
Ive had a VERY brief chat with the lady on the phone , rough costs are 15 cars min = �35 a head for 1X3 runs.
I'm not arsed where we go , but it's got to be 4WD.
I'd be interested in a dyno day depending on where and when.
Well if we can arrange to go to Prosport that would be ideal for our other car as we are looking to put Revo on that too so before/after runs on the same car would good.
Perhaps time to start another RR Day thread?
I don't mind setting it up , but i don't want people to think i'm only suggesting Prosport coz it's round the corner!
Lets put out a feeler before we go to press!
Put your name down if you fancy it!:jump:
RR day Prosport Stockport , 15 cars min = �35 1 X 3 runs
RR day Prosport Stockport , 15 cars min = �35 1 X 3 runs
S3IZZO (2 cars)
RR day Prosport Stockport , 15 cars min = �35 1 X 3 runs

Investment trusts enjoy 30% boost to inflows over 2012
by Sarah Miloudi on Dec 18, 2012 at 16:27
Nearly 30% more money flowed into investment trusts in 2012 than last year, according to analysis from Winterflood Securities.
'Whilst the environment for fundraising remains challenging, 2012 has been a better year than last year,' said the Association of Investment Companies (AIC), in response to Winterfloods' findings.
Market maker Winterfloods, which has a specialist investment company research team headed up by Simon Elliott (pictured), said investment companies attracted roughly £3.2 billion over the year versus last year's £2.5 billion, a rise of 28%.
Seven new investment companies were launched, including the Battle Against Cancer Investment Trust and the Starwood European Real Estate Fund, the biggest launch of the year after netting £228 million at its placing. This is compared to six trusts launched in 2011.
Winterfloods said £912.6 million had left investment trusts through share buy backs and £987.7 million through tender offers, looking at 12-month data through to the end of November.
Investors keen on the trust sector continue to look for income, a theme not expected to disappear any time soon.
Winterfloods found income dominated the bulk of secondary market issuance throughout 2012, with infrastructure proving a hot specialist sector.

I wasn't able to include it on my list of Best Cookbooks of 2009, due to my theme being "cookbooks that expand the repertoire" while this one is for twentysomethings just embarking on cooking from home, stocking the pantry, mixing cocktails for friends. But I really like Life After Ramen, self-published by local authors Randy MacDonald and Ann Thatcher and sold locally places like Carpe Librum. The biggest appeal to me is the simple recipes that don't shoot too low: a special tomato soup that has sun-dried tomatoes in olive oil when you're in a hurry, for example, not hot dogs--or flank steak, roasted chicken, you get the idea. I've also tried the Thai peanut noodles and a couple of the appetizers like a shrimp dip, very nice.
But my favorite recipe from the book, which I plan to use at least once this holiday, is basically: cut squares of any color bell pepper, pack on some feta cheese, and run it under the broiler until it's browned. It's an appetizer, and we loved it over Thanksgiving. I'd totally recommend the book as a gift for any newbie kitchen proprietors, or for (sorry to be sexist) guys of any age who don't cook much but would like to be able to whip up a date meal for two or just switch off from, well, ramen and frozen pizzas when it's time to cook dinner.
did get a chance to interview the two authors a little earlier this year; here's what they had to say about producing and now marketing your own cookbook.

VLS hosts climate change symposiumJanuary 29,2014VLS hosts climate change symposium
SOUTH ROYALTON There will be a symposium on the effect of climate change on winter sports to be held at the Chase Center on the Vermont Law School campus on Feb. 6.
The symposium, Brown Slopes, Bare Trails, will be held from 12:45 to 2 p.m.
According to a release on the discussion by Vermont Law School, the negative economic effect of climate change on winter sports such as skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing and other outdoor recreation dependent on snow is well documented.
According to a report published this month by the University of Waterloo, Management Center Innsbruck and Interdisciplinary Centre, only 11 of the past 19 Olympic host cities will be climate reliable by mid-century, and Sochi will not be an option by 2050.
According to the release, last year, the Natural Resources Defense Council issued a report detailing radically divergent weather patterns and how unpredictability and lack of snow can translate into a precipitous fall in revenue, an early economic indicator of what climate change looks like.
The panel discussion will include co-author of the NRDC report, Elizabeth Burakowski, Ph.D.; Parker Riehle, president of the Vermont Ski Areas Association; Ian Jarrett, vice-president of HKD Snowmakers, a Massachusetts company that manufactures and supplies energy-efficient snowmaking technology; and Michael Hussey, director of Rikert Nordic Center at Middlebury College.

Best Uses
As a firefighter I need a strong durable pair or shorts for the summer time. The firehose work shorts hit the nail on the head, comfortable, durable and they look great. All the pockets were designed perfectly and I no longer have to carry everything in one pocket.
Best Uses
I love heavy weight cloth for work shorts. These are the best. Although super strong material, they are still soft and comfortable. I also love all the deep pockets to hold cell phone, tools, etc. It is so hard to find shorts of this quality and weight in the retail stores, thank you Deluth!
Best Uses
I never bought anything from Duluth before. I was not disappointed in this purchase! I was searching and searching for a good durable work short. I wanted lots of pockets and the loops for the tool belt bags just sold me. I bought both the belt and shorts and have been using them daily. These are tough and I love the pockets within pockets. I can make them closed pockets or tuck the tops in for easy fast access. I always have a small wrench, technician small screw driver, roll of tape, leather work gloves,folding razor knife. I can enthusiastically say these are likely the BEST work shorts I have ever owned. I am going to buy a few more and buy them in the pants version as well. You will not be disappointed! They fit true to size for me.
Best Uses
I wear them a lot work, play, camping, hiking and dance.
Love the reinforced belt loops, pocket space, placement and flaps over the pockets.
One more big plus for DTC
Best Uses
My husband lives in these shorts in hot weather. I had to order more pairs because I was washing them everyday!!
Best Uses
I wear them to work in the summer and they carry all of the stuff I need and more. I love the side pockets that Velcro IN for use as a pouch. I also like the deep key pocket. Should have one on both sides, not just the right.
Best Uses
I have several pairs of these in different colors. These shorts wear well, hold up under hard conditions. They have some kind of treatment that prevents stains, dirt is not absorbed.
Best Uses
I love the pocket layout on the firehose cargo pants I wear to work every day and liked the idea of having shorts with the same layout. I even considered making a pair of shorts by cutting off the legs and rehemming. They run smaller than the long pants. I ordered a 38 waist, same as my long pants and had t send them back and get a 42 waist. The little inside pocket at the bottom of the right hand pocket is also missing, but I can live with this. These shorts are great.
Best Uses
Ready when you are.
By Dennis from Friendship, WI on 6/28/2014
Good Protection, Durable, Comfortable
Best Uses:
Construction, Outdoor Work, Mechanics, Working With Power Tools, Carpentry
Feels true to size
Describe Yourself:
Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
Primary use:
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I needed something tough and comfortable. These shorts do that, and they carry a lot of stuff. They are the best I have ever purchased, no matter what the job.
I would add that I have been an ASQ Certified Quality Engineer for over 25 years, so I believe I know quality when I see it. This is the real thing.
Best Uses
Wear these when I get home from work during the warm summer days. Need long pants at work, look forward to putting these on when I get home.

Club Mud is the only therapeutic red clay mud bath in California where visitors can smear themselves (or each other) head to toe in red clay, whose mineral properties help draw out impurities and exfoliate, leaving skin amazingly soft and smooth.
The dry clay is mined nearby in the Temescal Valley and mixed with water from the mineral springs to form the soft clay used in Club Mud. You can immerse yourself in the red clay pool, or use a pile of clay kept moist by a spraying mist. It's fun to slosh around in the thigh-deep pool, but it's hard to cover your legs while they're under water, so the pile of clay outside the pool is good for that.
In the summer, it's pleasant to dry out in the sun. On cooler winter days, you might want to try the Wafa drying chamber. Once dry, you brush off the top layer of mud and shower off the rest in the shower caves that are scattered around Club Mud. Don't follow the crowd. The shower caves to the left of the clay pool and just behind it to the right seem to be less crowded since they blend pretty well into the landscape.
It is recommended that you visit Club Mud after the Mineral Baths so that your pores are opened up by the heat (the sauna or steam room can have a similar pore-opening effect). It's nice to do the mud bath early in the day so you can get rid of all those dead skin cells before using all the other pools (by the end of the day, there's a scum of dead skin and sunscreen floating on the various jet tubs).

Chocolate Cups
Contains NO: wheat, gluten, peanuts, tree nuts, egg, dairy or shellfish. Note: This recipe contains soy.
Chocolate Cups:
1 (10oz.) bag Enjoy Life ® chocolate chips
2 tsp Spectrum shortening (do NOT substitute with butter, oil or margarine)
Chocolate Mousse:
1 (12oz.) package Silken SOFT Tofu (brought to room temperature)
1 (10oz.) bag Enjoy Life® chocolate chips
3 tbsp brown rice syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
8-10 balloons (water balloon size)
Hand mixer, blender or food processor
1) Blow up 8-10 balloons.
2) Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
3) Microwave chocolate chips with shortening for 2 minutes, stirring after one minute. Continue heating in 30-second intervals until chocolate is melted. Do not overheat. Stir until smooth.
4) Dip balloon into melted chocolate, coating about 1/3 of the balloon. Let excess chocolate drip off. Repeat step one additional time.
5) Place the dipped end of the balloon on the parchment paper. Repeat with remaining balloons.
6) Place baking sheet with balloons in refrigerator (about 30 minutes).
7) Release air from balloons: Pinch the balloon just under the knot and cut a small hole in the surface between fingers and knot. Very gradually release the air. Be careful not to release the air too quickly or the bowls may break. Carefully peel the deflated balloons from the chocolate bowls. Patch any holes with the remaining chocolate if needed.
8) Return the bowls to the refrigerator.
9) Create your mousse filling: Using a hand mixer, blender, or food processor, blend tofu until smooth. Set aside.
10) Microwave chocolate chips for 2 minutes, stirring after one minute. Continue heating in 30-second intervals until chocolate is melted. Do not overheat. Stir until smooth.
11) Add brown rice syrup to the melted chocolate. Mix until combined. Chocolate should "seize" and pull away from the sides of the bowl, almost forming a ball.
12) Add the chocolate mixture to the tofu. Blend until smooth and creamy. Then, mix in vanilla.
13) Chill until set (at least 2 hours).
14) Fill each bowl with approximately 4 tbsp of mousse before serving. Garnish with fresh fruit if desired.
*Chocolate Raspberry Mousse Option. For those who love berries with their chocolate, try adding 1/2 cup raspberry puree to finished chocolate mousse for an extra berry burst.
Yield: 8-10 servings

Eden Hazard has warded off interest from Europe's elite by signing a new long-term deal with Lille.
The 19-year-old is one of the most promising teenagers in the game and has previously been linked with the likes of Arsenal and Real Madrid.
But Hazard has committed his future to Lille, signing an extension to 2014 after helping Les Dogues to third place in the French top flight.
The Belgian youngster, who only turned 19 last month, has three goals and six assists from 17 league starts this season, including the only goal in Saturday's 1-0 win over Lens.
Hazard has progressed through the ranks at Lille, making his debut aged just 16.
He went on to make his full international debut in November 2008 aged just 17 and already has 10 caps for Belgium.

The scourge of Amalek is upon you,The seed of Amu hath oppressed you
They hath urinated upon you and made you eat feces
They know not Ra
They are the enemies of Asar,they hath defiled your tombs
Violated your women and made victims of your little ones
They hath befouled the writings of Thoth
They hath burned sacred papyri,they hath cracked open your heads
Smashed your teeth and gouged out your eyes
They hacked off your limbs and thrown your mutilated bodies
Towards the heavens mocking Ra
Let not their seeds multiply among you
Honour not their wretched little Gods
Crawl not on your bellies before them,war shall you make upon them
Plague and pestilence shall you call down upon them
You must destroy their seed utterly,you shall gash them with flints
You shall gore them with sticks,hack off their testicles
And cut their phalluses to pieces,suffer none of them to live
Dismemberment and slaughter shall you perform on them
The mighty Sekhmet will devour them
The chain of Sut is around their neck,Horus hammereth them
Nepthys hacketh them to bits,the eye of Ra eateth into their faces
Their carcasses will be consumed in the desert
The seed of Amu with perish utterly
Their filth shall never breed among you again
We shall blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under the sky.

Fire Restrictions in Effect
Due to recent hot, dry, and windy conditions, the park is currently at very high fire danger. The following fire restrictions are in effect: No open fires are permitted anywhere within the park. Smoking is only permitted inside an enclosed vehicle. More »
Pile Burns at Mesa Verde National Park
Contact: Joanie Lawrence, 970-529-5066
Mesa Verde National Park fire management staff plan to implement two large pile burns in the park. The burns will take place on Chapin Mesa near the "4-way intersection" in the vicinity of park headquarters, and near the Morefield Campground. The objective of these burns is to consume the existing accumulation of brush from the past summer's fuel reduction projects.
Fire managers plan to light the piles during the month of March. The burns will only take place when optimum weather and smoke dispersal parameters are met. For further information concerning these burns, please contact Joanie Lawrence, Fuels Specialist, Mesa Verde National Park at (970)529-5066.
Did You Know?
Contrary to popular belief, the Ancestral Puebloan people of Mesa Verde did not disappear. They migrated south to New Mexico and Arizona, and became today's modern pueblo people.

Updated for "The Old Hippie's Corner", Part VII of the "Weekend in San Francisco" Series:
 Preface   Part I  Part II Part III Part IV  Part V Part VI
From Part VI: "I see Sage bouncing down the trail towards me now and it will soon be time to return to my tall tale. A brief look at the odyssey of Janis Joplin from Texas to California to find her fame is perhaps a fitting way to close this brief reflection on Sixties' music."
Sage! It is difficult to capture in words the feelings of a seventeen year-old male when a second chance arises to meet a girl that has so stirred his hormones. Her departure that day from the Pacific Valley Store with Davy Crockett and Buffalo Bill had brought an abrupt end to a Big Sur big fantasy. In retrospect, that brief encounter will make the marquee of my rocking chair memories. I beg my younger audience not to scoff at this metaphor. I'm a few years younger than rockster Mick Jagger and can still rock off the rocker. But mind you, a rocking chair on a good porch deserves respect. It is an old and reliable method to slowly rewind the events of one's life from the same reel that flickers at the speed of light when you reach the final concert.
Sage now moves in slow frame, so beautiful and coming so close. The tails of her purple silk shirt dance with a faded jeans partner. Her long henna hair swings with silver earrings, sways with silver necklace. I must pause. I want to get this right. Rewind. That's it, the perspective from older eyes, a traveler's eyes that have seen the world. It is her face. A Mediterranean face at home in any neighborhood of temperate latitude, a countenance without borders.
Please rewind again. But, what is it? Is it the soft olive skin or a Roman nose that gently parts the waters of those dark liquid eyes? Is it the dramatic asymmetry of expression, a left eye at a slight elevation from the right? Oh, forgive this self-indulgent rambling! These are questions that creak underneath the endless rock of rocking chair memories. There is a tall tale to be told, hit play and let this seventeen year-old have the chance to rejoin his fantasy.
 "Hey, aren't you the guy with the freaky car?" Sage asks.
Big Molly's fly swatter weed and adolescent urges jumble my reply, "Uh…that's…my friend's…uh…Borgward."
"I'm Sage, what's your name?" Sage extends her small hand toward me. I grasp it not as a handshake but as if one was about to fall off the planet, "I'm…Shortcut."
"Shortcut! What kind of name is that?" Sage pulls me gently back to terra firma and close enough to smell a hint of patchouli.
I point down the trail, "Uh…Molly there, your friend, just gave me that name."
"Ha! Molly gives everyone and everything a new name!" Sage giggles and then passes her silver bracelets slowly past her eyes and then jingling, jingling to the sky, "She gave me my name!"
"Yeah, that's because I'm from Texas." Sage pulls me from the trail to the creek. We sit down on a big flat rock. The rock is warm and chases away any chill from the returning fog. Her patchouli, a smell I would become accustomed to later in the Sixties, brings everything a young man has to offer to rigid attention.
 "Molly thinks Texas is a big desert with sage brush and everything."
"Oh...sure, I guess."
"Well, it's NOT! I'm from Austin, rolling hill country. That's not a desert!" Sage releases my hand and gently returns me to the custody of gravity, "Do you want to get high?"
"High? Uh…yeah sure," I watch as Sage pulls a tightly rolled joint from behind her ear. Gravity struggles to keep me fixed to that rock. "Poor Molly, she's never been anywhere except here and a trip to San Francisco for her pa's funeral," Sage pulls a matchbook from her jeans and lights up.
"She told us about her father."
"Yeah. Sad shit," Sage exhales and passes the joint to me, "I'm going to take her big ass to Hollywood, you know to cheer her up. I want to see Morrison at the Whiskey."
"Cool! I'm from the Valley," I cough my toke and bite my tongue for screwing up a big chance at doobie savoir-faire.
"What valley?"
"The San Fernando Valley!" Cough.
"Is that near Hollywood?"
"Just over the hill." Cough.
"Oh yeah. So like I said, I'm from hill country. It's pretty," Sage kicks off her leather sandals and puts her feet in the creek. I unlace my Keds and do the same.
"You see, this could be the Pedernales and those California poppies over there could be bluebells," Sage swishes her feet around, pointing to the orange California State flowers on the opposite bank.
"What's a bluebell?"
"Oh man, you're as bad as Molly!" Sage places a hand on her tie-dyed shirt, "Texas bluebells, and blue as my top!"
"But your top is…purple?"
"Purple! The low vibration of blue, red and blue in cosmic embrace!"
"Heavy Duty Dave told me that."
Not in the mood to hear any more about the dubious commune guru I say, "Gee, I've never been to Texas."
"I've never been to Hollywood so we're even!" Sage jokes as her small toe collides with my big toe in a submerged tease. My senses do a high-dive into a pool of Patchouli.
"What's a Purr-DUH-nales?" I ask coming up for air.
"What's a San-Furr-nan-DUH?" Sage mocks my linguistic ineptitude and squeezes my cheeks playfully as a French teacher trying to teach a nitwit student how to pronounce deux. We roll off of the rock into the damp grass. Sage continues the lesson, "The Ped-er-na-les is a river outside Austin. Haven't you ever heard of the L.B.J. ranch?"
"Yeah…" Sage is lying on top of me. The teacher has the full attention of the student.
"The L.B.J. ranch is ON the Pedernales!"
"Oh-oh. I think he might want to send me to Vietnam."
"Ole Lyndon might be looking for you right now!" Sage punctuates her warning with a gotcha grab to my waist. She looks down on me with those dark eyes, free eyes, eyes without borders. I close my eyes and feel her face draw close to mine. Her silver necklace is cold to my chest; her cheek is warm. That first slow dance, is it possible? The closeness. I hear the Flamingos singing "I Only Have Eyes for You." I feel her lips touch mine. The Doo Wop harmonies begin, my face is in her hair and it smells so good. "I Only Have Eyes for You" goes to the bridge and this reel fades to black.
More to come…

Time to rehabilitate the Sturgeon
| Posted: Wednesday, Dec 26, 2012 06:00 am
I am in amazement that Genstar is to build residential housing for 8,000 people on the banks of the Sturgeon River. My amazement is not the housing, but the state of the Sturgeon River!
The great old Sturgeon is now nothing more than a sewer running open through the city! Building near the Sturgeon has over the last several decades caused the banks to fall into the river creating a river bottom not conducive to fish (or people). Today the city of St. Albert puts street water and accompanying chemicals into the water in some places while our historic 'dump anything' dump is leaching into the river.
The city needs to budget and plan for the re-construction of the river banks with rock sides, and the river needs to be dredged to remove the dangerous chemicals and smells from the river water. I argue that the saving of the Sturgeon for fish, fowl and people should be the highest priority for St. Albert elected officials (and the city administrators).
Sally McBride, St. Albert

You are creepy.
There is no way around it. You are creepy by definition. You are a graduate student.
As a former graduate student, I know this first-hand. But there is hope for you. First, you must accept your shortcomings. Second, I can provide some practical advice on how to beat the odds.
Your Shortcomings
As a graduate student, you already have two strikes against you. Why two strikes, you ask? Well they have names, these so-called "'strikes.' I call them age and location.
You are creepy because of your age. You took a few years off between college and grad school, and the freshmen are highly suspicious of your strange late-20's age group. You might be losing your hair. You are too old for a goatee or a baseball hat. The college girls wonder, "Does he like the same music? Why does he keep talking to me about The Strokes? Why does he keep reciting lines to me from John Tucker Must Die?"
"Hey fellas! Where's the party?
I brought my Peter Gabriel cassettes!
You are also creepy because you live, as already mentioned, in graduate housing. It's not a dorm. It's not a fraternity house. It's not an off-campus apartment. No one seems happy. No one is stumbling around drunk. And there are lots of foreign students there.
Welcome to graduate housing a.k.a. the Land of the Walking Dead. Like some poor sucker who has already seen The Ring, these people have all seen "'The Real World.' And here things are suddenly "'unacceptable.' As a college student it is acceptable to vomit in your girlfriend's pillowcase. As a college student it is acceptable to wear your "'Hooters More Than a Mouthful' t-shirt to class. You can't even where that shirt indoors anymore.
Graduate housing is a sad purgatory-like place. Most undergraduates try to avoid it like the plague. In order to meet undergrad girls, one must venture out to the campus and follow the rules listed below.
Beating the Odds
Follow these rules to increase your chances. As a basic guideline- the less effort you make the more success you will have. And always remember that you are creepy.
1. Do not audit undergraduate classes.
2. Do not sleaze around undergraduate dorms.
3. Do not wear your graduate school sweatshirt.
4. Do not put your graduate school sticker on your car.
5. Do, however, offer to take your sister's friends out to dinner to a somewhat-nice Italian restaurant.
6. Order lots of wine.
7. Include all of her friends, guys too.
8. Do not invite the good looking guy fiend that is on the soccer team.
9. Do not try to impress them with your knowledge wine.
10. Do not reference the movie "'Sideways.'
11. Do not talk about college boys being "'so immature.'
12. Do not ask them what their major is.
13. Do not go with them to their sorority formal.
14. Stop acting so creepy.
If these rules are closely followed you might have a chance of bringing an undergraduate girl home with you. Unfortunately, you live in graduate housing so no undergraduate is actually going to enter your home.
But bringing an undergraduate girl back to the front door of your graduate dorm is in itself a small coup. You should reward yourself with a private viewing of Phoebe getting out of the pool. You are a grad student- this is the closest you are going to get to any action.

A popular template for the light footed large surfer. The large base with medium tip helps with powerful bottom turns and releasing the fins off the top. Try this laid back template in wrapping point breaks. Riding the quad rears instead of the center fin will add drive and hold.

Excellent Pilot
Posted by mr_biotic on Feb. 25, 2007
Posted by mr_biotic on Feb. 25, 2007
Interesting...: The nose gear flames seem to come mostly from the stuff on the runway burning. Notice how it flares up when scraping across the center line paint and the rubber deposition from previous landings.
Lame ass...: ..Jetblue.. lol.
Emergency landing: The story of this plane can be found here, http://www.aerospaceweb.org/qu this isn't a porn link, its about the problem that caused this emergency landing.
the pilot was rewarded by the ceo delaying his paycut: for an extra week. They also are considering not firing him before hes eligible for retirement.
They had to repaint the white line after that landing.: Nice Vid!
