I've had so many thoughts flying around in my brain this past week. It's interesting being in this position- the one where I've counseled many couples preparing to begin life together. My mantra for true and lasting relationships is simple and impossible: serve humbly, suffer well, and love fully. When I stop to reflect on those things I realize the overwhelmingness of this statement. The necessity for knowing/accepting oneself and then being able to confidently and securely keep that separate all the while joining it with another. The reflection of the mystery of the Holy Trinity is the only way I can begin to comprehend (if that's possible) how this union occurs.
Here's an image that depicts this paradox: The Scutum Fidei – or Shield of the Trinity- which was established within the Athanasiun Creed in the 6th century. In the Center is God (Deus) and the external are the Father (Pater), the Son (Filius), and the Holy Spirit (S. Sanc or Spiritus Sancti).
I give you this chart and this history lesson because I think it's a core element not only to those who profess to believe in the Christian faith, but because the ramifications and the presupposition that faith beliefs and convictions are beyond human logic (that…or we are truly crazy). That's not to say someone without faith beliefs cannot live those three statements I made earlier about marriage: serve humbly, suffer well, love fully. But if you are seeking a relationship, the sacrament and process of marriage as expressed in Christianity, then this reflection becomes not only a union of two, but a union of Three. And considering one of these Three is a deity, well, yes, that makes it rather impossible.
Bear with me as I change paths for a minute. These past several years my near constant companion has been molasses in my bones and gray cotton balls in my brain and the occasional meltdown of whatever is chemically/mentally unbalanced in my brain. I hate to use the "D" word but Depression has been my reluctant friend. It's seeped into every aspect of my life without my encouragement and yet most days I've been able to "therapize" my self enough to make some semblance of peaceful coexistence. (Well, that and some meds :). I consider this in some way a blessing in that it allows me to see the world rather practically at times. I'm rarely taken to whimsy and giddyness and I'm too practical for my own good.
Fast forward to this past spring and the realization that I wanted to seek out a mate, but didn't have time for dating around much less the energy to put on a dazzling smile and act all energetic and what not. I have been content in singleness for quite some time. I value my naps and cat lady tendencies. I don't want to have to shave my legs unless I want to. And mostly I enjoy being selfish and I'm a bit afraid. Let's be really honest- I don't want to let someone know EVERY detail about my life because then I'm no longer in full control. I have to account for my actions to someone else. And maybe they'll get mad at me because it's not what they want or I'll hurt their feelings. Or maybe even I'll become bitter, cold, and unloveable because I'm unable to budge from my own notion of right or wrong.
I'm also sad about the change of no longer being the single working girl. There's been a sort of personal pride in struggling to make it on my own. And truly my single lady friends are some of the most dedicated, hardworking, and phenomenal women I know. I had pride about being one of them. And now I struggle with feeling like I didn't quite make that goal as a single woman- to prove to myself and the world that I don't need a man to survive and be happy. This in itself is ridiculous but it's how I feel. When you send out holiday cards with photos of you and your spouse it kind of makes me barf inside. Sure it's a pretty picture and I will hang it up on my fridge. BUT single ladies don't {usually…kudos to the exceptions!} send out cards at the holidays with their cats/dogs/latest knitted scarf. It's a reminder that our society still emphasizes that you're lacking something if you're alone…
So here's really the crux of pulling this all together the best I can with only a cup of coffee and not much sleep the past week…and I've forgotten to take my meds most days (oops, guess I should take those so Nathan doesn't think I'm a frigid stone of a fiance.
Love isn't pretty or easy. Or beautiful except the kind that takes fragments of broken glass and turns them into a mosaic. I'm fully expecting marriage to be hard and due to my line of work I see that all too clearly more often than not. I'm already grieving the luxury of crashing at my friend Amanda's place whenever I like and staying out to the wee hours of the morning (or 11pm…that's late for me). I'm worried about if I'll be judged for buying another pair of shoes. I'm worried that I won't be as strong and that the characteristics of living and struggling as a single woman will fade away and I'll become reliant on him- this interloper on the continuum of the inane through most intimate areas of my life.
I recognize why they call marriage in the Catholic Church a vocation. Singleness too is a vocation. And both are HIGHLY valued. I appreciate that a great deal and perhaps it makes me feel less like I'm abandoning ship and more like I'm jumping to another one that's just as potentially as incomprehensible and destructive if left to my own devices.
The little girl in me who watched too many Disney movies is excited. The therapist in me sees a checklist of strengths and weaknesses, goals, and treatment plans. The single girl in me is angry at myself for succumbing to this supposed weakness while having a tinge of jealously. The skeptic in me wonders how in the world someone else could love me when there are days I'm not even sure I really know or can love myself. I'm going to leave you with a picture of a heart, because I don't like warm fuzzies, and a popular quote from my favorite German philosopher.
…I would like to beg you dear Sir, as well as I can, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.

Reynolds American Inc.'s (RAI) second-quarter earnings rose 4.1% on higher prices and increased demand for smokeless tobacco.
The nation's second-largest tobacco company behind Altria Group Inc. (MO) has seen its top line challenged by an industry-wide decline in cigarette volumes and a weak economy that continues to pressure consumers' disposable income. Reynolds has been shifting its focus toward a few key cigarette brands while also expanding into smokeless tobacco. The company is also reducing its U.S. workforce by about 10% by the end of 2014 in an effort to save on labor costs.
Reynolds reported a profit of $461 million, or 84 cents a share, up from $443 million, or 78 cents, a year earlier. Excluding items such as a gain from nonparticipating manufacturer partial settlement, litigation charges and other items, adjusted earnings rose to 84 cents from 79 cents. Revenue edged up 0.1% to $2.18 billion, thanks in part to higher pricing.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had most recently forecast per-share earnings of 83 cents on revenue of $2.19 billion.
Operating margin improved to 36.6% from 33.7%.
At American Snuff, the smokeless-tobacco unit that makes Grizzly and Kodiak moist snuff, total volume increased 9.4%.
Total cigarette market share narrowed to 26% from 26.3%. Meanwhile, growth brands--which include Camel and Pall Mall--improved their market share to 17.6% from 16.8%.
Shares of Reynolds American, which also backed its full-year guidance, closed Tuesday at $50.79 and were inactive premarket. The stock is up 23% so far this year.

Wow! Big changes afoot on The Real Housewives of Miami! (Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo). The season 2 premiere introduced four new ladies: Lisa Hochstein, Joanna Krupa, Ana Quincoces and Karent Sierra. Already they appear to be irritating the three original cast members: Lea Black, Alexia Echevarria, Adriana de Moura and Marysol Patton.
Among the newbies, Joanna stands out. She is already somewhat famous as a supermodel (who's graced the covers of Maxim, Shape, FHM and Playboy) and as a Dancing with the Stars contestant (she was paired with Derek Hough during season 9). Her involvement in the show allows viewers entry into the life of a top-tier model, and her hunky, probably-cheating boyfriend, Romain, certainly spices up the proceedings (especially when he fights with her live-in sister, Marta, also a model).
But from the start, it's clear that this show continues to belong to Marysol and her mother, Elsa. (New to RHOM? You must meet Elsa, a psychic whose face is disturbingly disfigured from a plastic surgery-related accident, and who drifts through life in what appears to be a drug haze, dispensing psychic readings and riling up Marysol and her friends.) Here's a little taste of Elsa -- take a look at this web-exclusive Bravo video:
On this show about money and yachts and Botox, Elsa is the freakish comic relief. In the season 2 premiere, she's utterly distraught about losing her Yorkie, Napoleon, but after Marysol canvases the neighborhood with Lost Dog posters, Elsa finds him in the closet. (She claims he ate her Xanax and passed out in there.) Later, she attends a party with the Housewives and upstages them by fainting, thereby getting to make a dramatic departure in an ambulance.
Next to Elsa, it's tough to appear interesting. But the Housewives give it their best shot. Two of them, lawyer Ana and celebrity dentist Karent, are already fighting over a man (the sexily named, Spanish soap star, Rodolfo). Lisa, whose husband is plastic surgeon Lenny Hochstein, says she lives in a house built on breast implants. (Her own, impeccable hourglass is a walking advertisement for his work.) Lea instantly hates her, and is unhappy to learn that they are neighbors. Lisa is none too pleased, either -- after the chilly reception Lea gives her.
Catch a glimpse of what is to come!

Savory recipes using MINT?
- p
- paul steinberg Feb 27, 2006 12:10 PM
i have a bunch of mint at home and would like to make something with it...can't think of anything, besides recipes involving yogurt (which i'd also welcome).
A bit of finely julienned mint is excellent on scallops that have been seared in olive oil and some red pepper flakes with s&p. The mint cools the heat of the pepper flakes and both flavors play out well against the texture of the scallop.
re: Dommy!
As in albondigas?
re: Neta
Actually the meatballs are more like Kibi's... the Kababs are more like Koobideh. Several Parts of Mexico, especially in the Yucatan, the cuisine has strong influence from the Lebanese and Persian Immigrants. Instead of Parsley though, we use Yerba Buena, which as you know, is a type of mint. :)
Here's a fabulous, easy recipe from the NYT using a skirt steak and Vietnamese chimichurri. You will have to buy some extra herbs, but if mint's what you're after just add extra of it. I have played around with the mint:cilantro proportion and it tastes great no matter what.
Also, if you don't have a grill, just use the broiler and sear the meat a couple of minutes per side. It will cook quite a lot after you remove it from the heat, so absolutely no more than 5 minutes per side, and less if you like it rare.
Not exactly what you've asked for, but don't forget Moroccan mint tea for dessert. Here's a web page with a very nice description of the tradition. And, yes, all my former in-laws in Morocco used gunpowder tea with the mint.
I love mint mashed with potatoes, peas and butter (as in recipe linked below). The recipe I use is from one of my Jamie Oliver cookbooks, but the one below is nearly (actually?) identical.
Add mint (lots of it) and goat cheese to black beans and mash a bit. It makes excellent refried beans for service with grilled meats.
Since no one has mentioned it...Mint Pesto.
I use my basil pesto recipe, minus the parmesan and subbing walnuts for pinenuts. It's great on anything from bruschetta, to lamb, to grilled calamari.
i know you have gotten quite of number of suggestions for using mint in savory dishes, but i just had to add my favorite -- a dish that uses fresh mint in a salad/vegetable dish of green beans cooked until crisp tender,shocked in ice water, drained and then mixed with finely diced red onions, toasted walnuts and feta cheese, all tossed in a dressing made with a good quantity of mint, garlic, white wine vinegar and evoo. the dressing is made in a blender and actually looks like a pesto (although sans the nuts and cheese). delish.
In Nigella's "Forever Summer" book, she mashes up feta w/mint and hot pepper and spreads on grilled eggplant slices and rolls 'em up...sounds good, i use it in zucchini fritters from a Taverna cookbook -- here's a link to the recipe (which is AMAZING, as is the accompanying yogurt dip - i always drain the yogurt overnight and it makes such a difference. enjoy!

|Levonorgestrel Intrauterine System For Emergency Contraception: a Randomized Control Trial
|Brief Summary
Unintended pregnancy rates in the United States are among the highest of developed nations. These high rates can largely be attributed to incorrect or under contraception of women. One focus of decreasing unintended pregnancy and abortion rates has centered on expanding access to and use of long acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) methods which include intrauterine devices (IUDs), and subdermal implants. Emergency contraception, or post-coital contraception, offers significant reductions in the chance of pregnancy following an act of unprotected or under-protected vaginal intercourse. The most common method of emergency contraception used in the United States is the oral levonorgestrel regimen which reduces pregnancy risk by up to 89%. More effective, but rarely used, is the Cu T-380 intrauterine device. The intrauterine device has the added benefit of providing extended contraceptive use beyond the single episode of unprotected intercourse. The Cu-T380 has been associated with heavier and more crampy menses however, likely dissuading women from use. Among all IUD users, the levonorgestrel IUS has gained popularity over the Cu-T380, perhaps because it offers the potential to improve menstrual related symptoms. There is no data however on the efficacy of the levonorgestrel IUS as a form of emergency contraception. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the LNG-IUS as a method of emergency contraception. Participants will be randomized to receive either the most common method, oral levonorgestrel, or the LNG-IUS. Participants will then be evaluated 5-6 weeks following method allocation for pregnancy. Lastly, participants will be asked to complete a telephone survey 6 months following method allocation assessing their use of a consistent contraceptive method, their satisfaction with their contraceptive method, any use of emergency contraception since their enrollment in the study, and lastly any unintended pregnancies experienced since enrollment in the study. If we could show that the levonorgestrel IUS is as effective as the most commonly prescribed method of emergency contraception, we would be introducing another opportunity for LARC initiation and subsequently impacting unintended pregnancy and abortion rates.

Vikings Sign WR Walker, Waive RB MoatsPosted by on August 24, 2010 – 10:04 am
With Sidney Rice sideline because of a hip injury and Percy Harvin having missed extended time during training camp and the preseason, the Vikings WR position has gone from one of the deeper spots on the team to a position in need of some depth for the time being.
To address that situation, the Vikings have signed WR Javon Walker, a 9-year veteran who's been with the Green Bay Packers (2002-2005), Denver Broncos (2006-2007) and Oakland Raiders (2008-2009). With the Vikings, Walker is re-united with QB Brett Favre. The tandem was successful in Green Bay, hooking up for TDs 20 times.
Walker has played in 83 career games, including 46 starts, over the last 8 seasons and he was originally selected by the Green Bay Packers in the 1st round (#20) of the 2002 NFL Draft. He earned a Pro Bowl berth following the 2004 season, a campaign in which he had 89 receptions for 1,382 yards (15.5 avg.) and 12 TDs.
For his career, Walker has 267 receptions for 4,011 yards and 31 TDs.
To make room for Walker, the Vikings waived RB Ryan Moats.

"Vanilla" Will Be The Preseason Buzz WordPosted by on August 11, 2010 – 4:13 pm
We hear it every year about this time; it's the word "vanilla" and it's used to describe the types of schemes NFL teams use in the preseason. Rather than spending several days preparing a detailed game plan filled with complex ideas and adjustments, teams typically strip the playbook down to basics in the preseason.
One reason for this is teams don't want to give away any tendencies or secrets in exhibition games; they want to save that for the season. But another side-effect of the vanilla strategy is that it allows coaches and scouts to evaluate their players more effectively.
"We are going to intentionally make it as vanilla as it can be because you can say what you want, but guys that may be playing for the first time in the NFL, [they] are going to be excitable," Childress explained to reporters after Wednesday afternoon's practice. "So, hopefully there's not a ton of thinking involved.
"Now, do they have to make checks? Do they have to convert routes? Yeah, they have to do that in our offense. Vanilla, and then with a premium on guys playing fast, so you don't see a lot of thinking and gears grinding. They can just play football and if they're making a mistake they're making a full speed mistake but you can see their football prowess."
The Vikings will practice 2 more times in Mankato and they'll likely have a walk-through on Friday morning as they prepare for the 1st preseason game against the St. Louis Rams, which will kickoff at 7:00 p.m. CT on Saturday evening in St. Louis. Wednesday afternoon's practice was held inside Blakeslee Stadium and it was steamy, with temperatures and humidity at high levels.
Here are a few other notes from Childress' meeting with reporters…
Childress on WR Logan Payne: "He's getting more than maybe he expected, for a guy that we signed late in the process. He made a roster, then got knocked off that roster because they had another need. But yeah he's benefited by his turns and he's shown that he can make plays when called to."
Childress said QB Tarvaris Jackson will play with the 1st-team offense on Saturday evening and that he and the 1st team offense will leave the game "pretty quick."
Childress was asked about WR Percy Harvin, who has yet to return to the team after his Grandmother passed away and after Childress said his migraines have resurfaced. Asked if he's communicated with the 2009 AP Offensive Rookie of the Year, Childress said that he did on Wednesday morning and that there is no timetable for his return.
"I will say this," Childress said, "just as you guys saw him in our very first minicamp (in 2009), he has an A football IQ, he did a bunch of those things at Florida, so it wasn't completely foreign to him and every game plan that we have we have plays that may be his where he's touching the football. So it's not as if they're not going to be re-installed. I'm happy he's been around the block one time so he knows some of the types of things that we're trying to do."

Vikings Sign RB Ryan MoatsPosted by on June 15, 2010 – 9:42 am
The Vikings have bolstered their RB stable by signing free agent Ryan Moats, a 6th-year player out of Louisiana Tech who was recently released by the Houston Texans. Moats adds a veteran presence to a position group that includes Toby Gerhart, Ian Johnson, Adrian Peterson, Darius Reynaud and Albert Young.
"I watched them last year get so close to achieving the ultimate goal," Moats said of the Vikings. "I'm honored to be a part of the team. I look forward to being a member of the team and working hard to help us get to the Super Bowl."
Moats began his career with the Philadelphia Eagles, where he was selected in the 3rd round of the 2005 NFL Draft. Vikings Head Coach Brad Childress was Philadelphia's offensive coordinator at the time and he saw Moats score 3 rushing TDs during his rookie season, including 2 TDs against the NY Giants on December 11 and another the following week against the Rams. During his rookie season, Moats flashed with long scoring runs of 40 yards against the Giants and 59 yards against the Rams.
After limited action for the Eagles in 2006, Moats was injured in 2007 and was eventually waived in August of 2008. He then signed with the Cardinals for a few weeks before the Houston Texans signed him to their practice squad in October of 2008.
Moats, who stands at 5-8, 210 pounds, was eventually elevated to Houston's 53-man roster and he actually got his 1st carry of the '08 season against the Vikings in Week 8. An injury to Ahman Green gave Moats more playing time and he broke through with a 3-TD game in place of regular starter Steve Slaton; Moats' 3-TDs tied for the most single-game TDs by an NFL RB in '09. Moats also had 126 yards on 23 carries during that game.
In 2009, Moats led the Texans in rushing TDs with 4 and he was 2nd – behind Slaton – in carries (101) and rushing yards (390). For his career, Moats has averaged 4.1 yards per attempt on 201 career caries and also has 9 TDs (8 rushing, 1 receiving).

the anime i would like to live would be rurouni kenshjin or Vampire hunter D or ufo ultramiden valkyrie thos would be my choise
Probably, I would like to be in BLEACH world.
Because the adventure there is great. There's a mixture of a normal world (go to school, modern clothes) and a feudal world (Soul Society).
And if I ever get to be in Bleach world (before Ichigo rescues Rukia from the execution), I'll expose Aizen, Tousen and Gin before anyone else. And I'll expose them in a very stupid way.
Also, I'll tell Ichigo that his father was once a shinigami. *Laughs*
well, in my days before Soshi i practically lived in the Lucky Star world except the people weren't as happy or funny...
but if i had to choose, i'd want to live in the Yu Gi Oh world with Soshi... why? cuz all problems are solved with card games, you get to wear a cool outfit, and no one makes fun of you for playing the card games. it seems to be a prequizite of life there. ^_^ yep, i'm a loser!
Definately Hellsing (manga version) as long as I'm some badass werewolf-Nazi. Not that I'm a Nazi or anything, but werewolves kick ass and the Hellsing Organization didn't really have any... and they were only found with the Nazi's.
I wish i were in the world of Eureka 7, probably as Holland or Renton.
Only cause they pilot kewl LFOs.
The way they pilot the LFOs. Being able to lift/ref would be so awesome.
Joining the GekkoState and stuff.
Only down side to this would be having to battle the military.
I would want to live in the world of the Gundams. It would be amazing to be able to pilot a Gundam or heck even a normal Mobile Suit. It would own!
my guy side would pick a hentai.lol but other than that i would say DBZ, i think that would just be awsome, i mean in that show when u die, ur not even really dead, u just come back like whenever(exadtrating) but it'd be awsome

text: Random House 'Rogue' Scandal Update: McGinniss Confirms, Griffin Fumes, 'Hooker' Responds by Joel B. Pollak 22 Sep 2011 post a comment Share This: Joe McGinniss, author of Random House would-be blockbuster The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin, has confirmed the authenticity of the e-mail posted by Andrew Breitbart earlier today, which suggests that the book may have included allegations that McGinniss was aware he had not substantiated. McGinniss told Mediaite: My email to Jesse Griffin was an effort to secure Alaskan help in obtaining further corroboration of allegations about Sarah Palin that came to my attention during my research. My reporting continued beyond the date of the email, and only information that checked out to my satisfaction and that of my publisher was included in the book. Ultimately, I published only those allegations which I found to be credible. Other allegations that could not be sufficiently verified, including some of those referenced in my email, are not in my book. McGinniss did not, apparently, describe to Mediaite what new facts, unavailable to him on January 27, 2011, had emerged to justify the publication of allegations he described at that time as "tawdry gossip" and lacking "factual evidence." A close reading of the book suggests that the only new "evidence" to emerge concerned Trig Palin's purportedly "faked" birth, a conspiracy theory McGinniss admits he cannot prove. McGinniss cites "blogs" and anonymous residents of Wasilla as sources for his claim that "more and tougher questions about Trig's birth" emerged in the spring of 2011. Other allegations appear to have been published without any further verification. The recipient of McGinniss's email, Jesse Griffin, also published a response to Breitbart's post at his own blog, The Immoral Minority. Griffin denied that he was the source of the leaked email--implicitly confirming its authenticity--and defended McGinniss: Okay obviously I cannot address this issue without also addressing the story about a leaked email between Joe McGinniss and myself that is making the rounds, suggesting that Joe did not have the facts to back up the allegations in his book. (By the way he certainly does.) Yes I have seen the article, as well as the vicious attacks directed at Joe and myself. However at this time I cannot provide a comment because I believe that there is an ongoing investigation. What I can tell you right now is that I DID NOT leak, or provide access, to any e-mails between myself and anyone else. Period! I will also let you know that I will not help to provide traffic to that site by allowing a conversation about the article on this blog. I apologize, as I really dislike censorship, but I am sure you understand the decision. Finally, this morning, Shailey Tripp contacted us through our website, inquiring about how McGinniss's email had been obtained. Tripp is known to have been in contact with Griffin about her accusations relating to the Palins. Tripp is the "self admitted prostitute" who was arrested on related charges in January 2011. The National Enquirer attempted, unsuccessfully, to link her to Sarah Palin's husband, Todd. In a telephone conversation this morning following her initial contact, Tripp claimed that McGinniss had contacted her via email to ask about Trig Palin. "I didn't have anything to contribute to him, so he lost interest in speaking with me," she said. Tripp declined to provide that email, referring further questions to an attorney. Big Journalism contacted Random House earlier today, and we are still awaiting a response.

--Agricultural chemical revenues show life, other segments flat
--$2 billion payment received for failed K-Dow joint venture
--Performance Plastics net income up on packaging
(Updates with details, CEO comment)
By Ben Lefebvre
Dow Chemical Co.'s (DOW) second-quarter profit surged as an arbitration award over a failed joint venture offset flat sales.
Dow and other chemical makers are trying to capitalize on a U.S. drilling boom that has kept low the cost of natural gas--one of their main raw materials--but are struggling with tepid demand, particularly in Europe. Dow said earlier this year it plans to raise $1.5 billion over a span of 18 months by shedding non-core businesses, and it has cut jobs and shut plants in an effort to trim expenses.
Dow, the largest U.S. chemical producer by revenue, benefited in the second quarter from a payment of $2.2 billion for damages--one of the largest ever from a corporate arbitration--from Petrochemical Industries Company of Kuwait, after the state-owned firm backed out of the K-Dow joint-venture deal it agreed to in 2008.
That payment helped Dow post profits despite overall revenues coming in at $14.58 billion, only 0.4% higher than the year before.
Overall, Dow reported a profit of $2.43 billion, up from $734 million a year ago. On a per-share basis, which factors in preferred dividends, Dow's profit rose to $1.87 from 55 cents. Excluding the arbitration award and other one-time items, earnings were up at 64 cents from 55 cents.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters were expecting per-share earnings of 63 cents a share and revenue of $14.48 billion.
Still, Dow's performance pleased investors. Shares were $34.94 in mid-day trading, up 1.7% and beating the wider S&P 500.
The only Dow segment reporting a major boost in earnings was its packaging-materials segment. Food-safety concerns in China helped Dow's Performance Plastics division post $1 billion in profits in the second quarter, up nearly a third from the year before.
"There's a lot more food being delivered, as supermarkets become the predominate food sellers," Dow Chief Executive Andrew Liveris said in an interview.
Overall, Dow expects sales in China to continue growing, but at a slower pace than had been the case even a few years ago, Mr. Liveris said during a call with investors.

It is the second part of the article for those people who want to start their own payday loan or cash advance business. The article contains some common misunderstandings and advice for fresh businessmen in payday lending industry.
Although I have stated it in the first part of the article more than once, I will repeat that I can't give a quick response to the question how to start own payday lending business.
The purpose of the series of articles is to help people to escape from typical mistakes and to educate them on some basic ideas they should keep in mind when starting up a business. I hope that people, who are reading the article, will understand that starting a business in this industry is a difficult and laborious process that demands a lot of efforts and time. They should examine legislative acts in lending industry, ask for advice from a legal expert and have consultation with a person, who is experienced in payday lending in order to sort out all the necessary information. So, let's focus on further important facts about payday loan business.
1. Study the legislative acts of your State.
I recommend you to start with "brick and mortar" business model in the State, where you are a resident. Firstly, you should learn and make a copy of all the needed laws of your State. Call the State finance institution and find out how to get a license. Request for what activities the license is needed and what documents you need to provide to receive it. Ask your State advisor as many questions as possible, and don't be embarrassed by the legal language, he is using in conversation with you.
2. Study how Automated Clearing House processes.
I don't intend to explain you what ACH transaction means and how does it work. Briefly, it can be defined as a kind of withdrawal or direct deposit, by using which borrowers and lenders can transfer money to their check accounts directly. This procedure reduces the number of defaults, but is rather costly.
Find out what companies exist in your State and what prices and conditions they offer for their services. Tell them in advance that you are a payday lender, because many banks consider payday loans to be harmful to their non-sufficient funds profits. These banks forbid the clearing houses, with which they are cooperating, to deal with payday lenders in any cases. Banks are interested in holding back the operations of payday lending companies, but a great number of automated clearing houses are still cooperating with the lenders.
3. Connect with banks
Visit a bank with which you want to work and where you are going to open an account. It is necessary to inform the bank that you are a future payday lender. Learn about rules and limitations that they establish for you as a potential lender.
Follow the recent news in payday lending industry. Part 3 of the article will be issued soon.

Wine store in VA
- x
- xpatticakesx Aug 1, 2008 11:07 AM
My coworker mentioned a rwine store with a spectacular selection near Tysons Corner in Virginia but couldn't remember its name. Would any of you happen to know?
I know that Total Wine has a few locations in NOVA, but I'm not sure if that's the establishment your coworker was referring to. The one I've been to in Alexandria has a great selection of wine and beer.
there's one ion Great Falls- can't think of the name, off of Georgetown Pike. not a huge store like Total Wine but excellent mid to high end selection, hard to find Brunellos & Multipulcianos.
Here in Ashburn WineSith is fantastic. Syrahtica- what a cool wine!
Arrow Wine in Arlington is very well-regarded, but I certainly wouldn't describe it as near Tysons Corner. Extremely knowledgeable staff.
Much closer to Tysons you'll find two private wine stores: Cecile's Wine Store and The Vineyard. Both are located in McLean proper. Both probably excell in quality since they can't compete with Total in square footage.
The Vineyard made someone's list of best wine store in the area, but I can't remember who was behind that designation.
There's a reasonable store in the shopping center on Rt. 123 (Maple Ave) and Beulah Rd. in Vienna, about a mile from Tyson's Corner. I can't remember the name and I've never bought wine there (how's that for suggesting just what you're looking for? <g>) but it seemed that they had a pretty good wine department the couple of times I was in there to buy an exotic beer that they carried. If you're in the area, you might pop in. Maybe that's it, or a reasonable substitute.
If you're just looking for a well stocked and well informed wine store in NoVA, I'd suggest heading for Arrowine on Lee Highway at Kirkwood Road in Arlington.
re: MikeR
I second the recommendation for Arrowing, though it's not especially near Tyson's. I also like Out of Site Wines in Vienna, at 214 Dominion Rd. NE. Their web site won't tell you much (but check the hours -- they're not open every day), but they have a really nice selection and knowledgeable staff.
Agree she was probably talking about the Total Wine in McClean, it is huge, and will get in pretty much anything for you.
The oft-overlooked Vienna Vintner in Vienna is a special place. It's at 233 Maple Ave. Kirby Pope is the sommelier and there may not be a more knowledgeable person on wine within a 10-mile radius.


text: Tablecloth checks and gothic lace? It so shouldn't work, but something about 26 year old Tara Wheeler's kooky combination really does. Maybe it's the pattern proportion –the lace H&M jacket is really small in comparsion to her turquoise checked dress (it's her Mum's FYI). Or maybe its Tara's fuss-free tan accessories and no jewellery rule. We likey. But what do you like about her outfit? Remember the most constructive comments could get printed in Grazia magazine.

I'm not sure because the cake & i...Hi Anna! I'm not sure because the cake & icing you see in the photograph is this exact recipe. Here are some possibilities. The flour and milk in the first step has to be cooked until it thickens. If it didn't thicken you may have been a little short on the cooking time in that step. Once that is thick, it has to rest and cool before the next step. Once you beat that milk mixture into the second step with the butter and sugar, you need to beat that until you reach the texture of whipped cream. It should be thick. And last, the cake needs to be completely cool and not at all warm. If the icing ran off after you put it on, that means the cake was still warm. Another option of course is to use the popular cream cheese with powdered sugar icing. It's not traditional but a lot of folks like it. I hope that helps!!

Nothing is missing in the recipe, so there i...Nope. Nothing is missing in the recipe, so there is no need to "warn" people about this recipe.

This cake uses butter - most of the heirloom, traditional red velvet cakes do, they don't use cooking oil - so there is no vegetable oil missing in this recipe, and yes, the batter as with most homemade cakes, is not thin and should, in fact, be pretty thick.

I truly don't know what happened for you, but I can assure you the photo here is from this exact recipe here, I've made this many, many times, and I think you can see from that photo, there are no bricks in those layers! In fact, I've had many compliments on this cake, some of which are right here in the comments, and, in case you didn't read the post itself, is the recipe that my mother used for all of my life!

It is a light and airy cake. So sorry your cake didn't work out, but you really cannot fault the recipe and unless I was there with you, it's impossible to pinpoint what could have caused the problem. Baking is an exact science, takes some practice to learn your mistakes so there are so many factors - other than the recipe - that can cause problems with baking, and particularly with baking cakes.

A hard cake could mean you overmixed, which creates a reaction in the gluten and makes for a hard, dense cake. Or, you may have used too much flour. A common mistake in baking is to scoop the measuring cup into the flour, which compacts the flour and increases the amount you actually use. Too much flour will make your cake dense and hard. Did you use cake flour as instructed, or did you substitute all purpose? Cake flour is a lower protein than all purpose and gives a better crumb and a lighter more tender texture versus a chewy and more dense texture all purpose gives. You can substitute all purpose with some adjustments & additions to the recipe, but it's not the same result.

Did you use buttermilk, or did you try to get by with a homemade substitute using vinegar or lemon, because I don't recommend that - for this cake, use real buttermilk. Did you mix together the vinegar and baking soda before adding to the batter? Or did you add them individually instead?

Also, it could be that your oven runs hot and the thermostat is off. That would mean that you actually overcooked your cake and that will definitely make a cake hard! Did you use the right sized pans? Did you check the cake to see if it was done before or at the earliest suggested time?

Are you sure your baking soda was fresh? Did you sufficiently cream the butter and sugar together before adding any other ingredients? Was the butter softened at room temperature as instructed, or was it too warm or even nearly melted?

Did you use large eggs? Were they at room temperature? Did you add the eggs one at a time, so that each would incorporate into the batter before adding the other?

If you are not an experienced baker already, it will take some time to perfect your craft. As you see, there are so many factors - other than a recipe - that can affect the outcome with baking.

Please don't always assume a recipe is at fault when baking and something fails. Just keep baking and learning!

Cake flour is lower protein than all purpose and gives a better crumb and a lighter more tender texture versus a chewy texture all purpose gives. You can substitute all purpose with some adjustments, but it's not the same result.Mary | Deep South Dishhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7695338129494842494.post-81603688845299046472014-04-14T20:14:12.075-05:002014-04-14T20:14:12.075-05:00What kind of flour self rising or all purpose?What kind of flour self rising or all firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7695338129494842494.post-31293157772193771022013-04-03T16:36:06.307-05:002013-04-03T16:36:06.307-05:00I know Kathie, right?!

I did not want to use the red food coloring so I subbed Kahlua because it would enhance the chocolate flavor as well. I also used evaporated cane juice sugar which is not a fine grained as regular white sugar. However I have read elsewhere that the original 1800s recipe called for brown sugar & no food coloring so maybe this is more authentic. I did not have cake flour so subtracted 2T per cup (1 & 1.2 teaspoons for a 1/4 cup). I think you could just use 2C regular flour & be ok. I had reall buttermilk too. I had never heard of this frosting, apparently it is 'boiled milk frosting' & I used half butter, half cream cheese. Tastes great.

I am into real food & have been wanting to make a cake without a cake mix. This one is awesome!

PIGEON FORGE, Tenn. (AP) - Kathy Griffin asks "Am I the only Catholic left with a sense of humor?"
She's reacting to members of the Catholic League who were upset over the thank-you speech she gave when she won her creative arts Emmy.
In accepting the Emmy for "My Life on the D-List," Griffin had said that many winners thank Jesus for their awards.
In her words: "I want you to know that no one had less to do with this award than Jesus."
She also held up her Emmy and made an off-color remark about Jesus.
Another group also is upset with Griffin.
The Miracle Theater placed a full-page ad earlier this week in USA Today saying they consider it an honor to stand for Jesus.

13 Party Clean-Up Tips from the Pros
With hosting a great summer get-together comes the less-exciting task of cleaning it all up. These party planners' tips will lighten your post-celebration load so you can let loose.

Think Minimalism
When it comes to party decorations, Carmona believes in the old adage "less is more." Overdoing it with banners, balloons, and streamers only adds clutter and means you'll have more to pick up.

One of the best I've tried Diazepam works *very* well for the physical symptoms of my social anxiety. It does so without the cognitive blunting and depressiogenic side effects of clonazepam (Klonopin). I can not recommend diazepam highly enough; though it is less used now than in the past it is still very good for anxiety. I had some ataxia while beginning therapy but it quickly subsided. Good drug.
I take holidays periodically from it to check tolerance and I find that it does not help my avoidance behaviors all that much. I am evaluating Parnate (an MAOI) for that, and so far so good.
If you tried clonazepam but didn't like the side effects, diazepam might work.

Teva Mountain Games: Kayak Freestyle
The traveling carnival that is freestyle kayaking pulled into Vail, Colo., over the weekend for the 10th annual Teva Mountain Games. Emily Jackson—no surprise here—captured her seventh-straight TMG kayak freestyle title, while the other Jacksons—Emily's dad, Eric, and brother, Dane—settled for second and third place in the men's finals on Saturday behind Colorado paddler Dustin Urban…
Girls Gone Wildwater

No Half Measures by Celliers Kruger
Hendri walked into my office a couple of years ago, asking for sponsorship. By that time we knew about each other for a while already, but hadn't met yet.

IN THE EYES OF AN 11-YEAR-OLD CANOEING IN WHITEWATER FOR THE FIRST TIME, the 3-foot drop of Oblique Falls on Tennessee's Hiwassee River must look like Niagara Falls. Each year, the tiny ledge on the popular beginner's stretch sparks dozens of new paddlers. It's where Matt Thomas, 25, had his first open-boat taste of whitewater, bumping and grinding tandem "coal barges" down the Hiwassee's Class II rapids with the Boy Scouts of America (BSA)-sanctioned Hubert Bennett Jr. Canoe School.
What are The Chances?
The best kayakers in the world battle Class V waters on Homestake Creek over two runs with wicked jumps and crushing rocks with a combined two-run distance of about a half-mile during the course of 31⁄2 minutes, and there's a tie down to a hundredth of a second?
It's On: Teva Mountain Games
"Everythings's flowing great right now and we've got this overcast layer, so things are on the high side of normal—but it's reasonable, it's not flooding. I anticipate things coming up over the weekend, but judging by what we're seeing, I expect it to be a phenomenal weekend for the kayak events." That was the comment this afternoon from Brad Ludden, a pro kayaker from Vail, Colo., who participated in the first Teva Mountain Games in Vail ten years ago, and every one since.
He Brought Perseverance by Ben Stookesberry
Hendri was hard. It was tough to keep up with him. He would push for 12 hours of daylight, wake up first thing in the morning and keep going. He brought so much intelligence, maturity and strength. He brought perseverance.
Ellesmere Island Update: Eureka!
We have been traveling really well so far. We have skied about 380 miles in 23 days—we could not have asked for better ice conditions thus far. Lots of adverse and dramatic weather: Really hot, then really cold, etc. We really have to be ready to throw on different layers all day long depending on what the polar environment gives us.
Virtual Coach: Tandem Basics
FOR C&K'S CANOE TECHNIQUE GURU PAUL MASON, getting on the water to film a series of skills videos with his daughter, Willa, has made for a fond trip down memory lane. Canoeists around the world still remember Paul as the plaid shirt-wearing 14-year-old paddling with his father, the late filmmaker and canoeing icon Bill Mason, in the acclaimed "Path of the Paddle" instructional series, which was produced by the National Film Board of Canada in the 1970s.
Video: 'Into the Wind,' featuring the 'Round Ireland expedition
Last week, C&K's Conor Mihell interviewed Jeff Allen following Allen and partner Harry Whelan's 25-day sea kayak circumnavigation of Ireland to establish a new speed record. Now comes a video trailer for the forthcoming film, "Into the Wind," filmed and produced by Vaughan Roberts of Romany Productions, chronicling Allen and Whelan's epic odyssey 'round Ireland.
Teaser: 'Kadoma,' a film chronicling Hendri's final adventure
In C&K's latest issue, the 2011 Whitewater edition on newsstands now, we rolled out a number of remembrances and tributes to the late Hendri Coetzee. This post is one that does not appear in the magazine—as it's a video teaser for the forthcoming film, "Kadoma," chronicling Coetzee's final adventure before he was pulled under by a crocodile on Africa's Lukuga River, in December.
Hendri's Way by Gustav Nel
The river, according to the locals, was flooded. It was higher than it had ever been, and we reached the first rapids in about three hours. You could only scout from the top, so Hendri got on Joe Henry's shoulders to try and pick a line.
Alone Around Ireland
Just as Brit Jeff Allen and Irish paddler Harry Whelan were completing a rocket-fast 25-day circumnavigation of Ireland in early May, a solo sea kayaker from Northern Ireland was getting started on her own attempt to paddle around the Emerald Isle's 1,000-mile perimeter. Elaine "Shooter" Alexander, a British Canoe Union instructor and former world-class surf kayaker…
Meeting Hendri by Joe Henry
I can't even roll a kayak, but that's how we met. In 2006, I was on a truck tour through Africa and Hendri was working as a raft guide on the Nile in Jinja. I signed up for a kayak tour.

Forecasters say Sandy is no longer a hurricane but is still a dangerous system taking dead aim at New Jersey and Delaware.
The National Hurricane Center said Monday evening that Sandy is a post-tropical storm and losing strength but still has sustained winds at 85 mph. The eye has almost made landfall.
The center says storm surge has reached heights of 12.4 feet at Kings Point, N.Y.
Gaining speed and power through the day, the storm knocked out electricity to more than 1.5 million people and figured to upend life for tens of millions more. It clobbered the boarded-up big cities of the Northeast corridor, from Washington and Baltimore to Philadelphia, New York and Boston, with stinging rain and gusts of more than 85 mph.

"Are you for real? you spend all your life on Facebook!" How many times have you heard those demeaning words (with, of course, all that follow) addressed to you as a criticism, just because one day you had the unfortunate idea to leave your browser opened on your homepage from the famous social network in plain view of everyone.
Without fighting left in you, you are wondering how to put an end to all these unwarranted criticisms when one of your colleagues takes you aside and whispers: "Well, you just need to install Facebook Messenger for Windows, like everyone else."
With Facebook Messenger for Windows, no need to open a web browser to access your account and chat live with all your friends! Once the application is installed, you just have to fill on the main window your e-mail address and password as you normally would on the website to login.
Without any unwanted extras, the extremely lightweight application can be very discreet (especially if you decide to put it on the right side of your screen) and fits perfectly in your office environment, allowing you to go about your usual activities without it bothering you in the least.
Developers had the good idea to include in this version the main features of the online version to not confuse new users.
So you always have at your disposal the usual functions such as friend requests, list of messages and notifications.
The app then displays a constant overview of the activities of all your friends as well as a list of all your contacts. Then simply click on one of these contacts to start an instant conversation. Finally, the messaging window incorporates at the very bottom a search engine and option buttons allowing you, among other things, to start new conversations and automatically minimize the window to the right of your screen.
Video calls and instant chat with multiple friends have unfortunately not yet been integrated into the application.
Foolproof, Facebook Messenger for Windows will prove a vital asset for social network fanatics who want to stay in constant contact with their contact network without attracting attention especially in its daily use.
Facebook Messenger is the official Facebook application for Windows, that lets you use Facebook without leaving your desktop or launching your Web browser. You can also enjoy all your Facebook messages on your PC while you surf the Web, play PC games or use any other software.
With Facebook Messenger for Windows, you can:
