Smish Mosh Monday on a Monday!!!
It was a mess that weekend. Grandpa's funeral was the day after graduation so we had more family at the graduation than expected and a small party that we hadn't planned on. It worked out.
$100.49 Google(blog writing)
$72 Pinecone research
$25 Amazon gift code that I won from Donna Freedman at Surviving and Thriving!!!!!
Total $350.04 for our 2014 Christmas!
Cutting and pasting is so much easier than writing something new!
Even with all of the craziness, we managed to get the plants in the ground. So that makes me happy and gives me more work to do. ;p
Don't look at the terrible crack between the stoop and the sidewalk. Did you ever look around your home and think I will never get it all fixed? Den started rattling off things that needed to be fixed/replaced and then he looked at me and said, "let's just move." Yup, I think that everyday! It seems as if all of our hard work never gets us anywhere.
So do you see what I see?
DJ's car is still with us. The check engine light is on. Den's windshield if a mess and the brakes are bad on Anna's car. Whatever-we will be walking soon.
Oh and the super posh gardening center is only slightly more expensive than Walmart or Menards for flowers and the flowers are so much healthier. See I splurge.
Also, I did a little digging-literally. I was poking around on the inside of one of the baskets at the gardening center to see what they lined it with and it was just thick plastic. I used a Jewel bag. See I'm still cheap.
And there is a row of cherry tomatoes planted in the lopsided bricks. I say its a job for DJ to straighten them. Maybe that's why he isn't here very often, the chores!
Plants and projects,
Sonya Ann

If your salad bowl sprouts weeds, just throw them into the dinner salad and go ahead and eat them. Most weeds are eatable - just slap on some dressing!

GENEVA (Aug. 18)
The Israeli negotiators who have been working here on a deal to exchange Shi'ite prisoners for Western hostages have expressed satisfaction with the way U.N. Secretary-General Javier Perez de Cuellar has handled the delicate negotiations.
For the first time, they said, the United Nations has shown a real understanding of Israel's position, which in this case is to not agree to any exchange before receiving tangible evidence about the fate of seven Israeli soldiers missing in action in Lebanon.
The three-member Israeli delegation left here last Thursday without receiving any concrete information about the seven MIAs. After returning to Jerusalem, the team briefed Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir and Defense Minister Moshe Arens about its talks with the U.N. secretary-general.
Perez de Cuellar continued to voice optimism, saying he was "really hopeful" an agreement would be reached soon on a prisoner-for-hostage exchange that would result in the release of Western hostages held by Lebanese Shi'ites.
Whether it took days or weeks would depend on how quickly the parties responded, the secretary-general told reporters last Thursday before leaving for Lucerne and then Portugal.
But in Jerusalem, Uri Lubrani, the head of the Israeli delegation, said, "I don't believe that the matter will be over in two weeks.
"I wish it were so, but so far, nothing should be expected," said Lubrani, who is the Defense Ministry's coordinator of operations in Lebanon.
The other members of the Israeli delegation were Yohanan Bein, deputy director general of Israel's Foreign Ministry, and Ori Slonim, who is Shamir's special adviser on the hostages.
Slonim said he, too, saw no grounds for optimism at this point and predicted the process would take a long time and require much patience.
Here in Geneva, intensive talks involving U.N., Israeli, Iranian and various Western representatives, have apparently ended for the moment.
The Israelis agree with Perez de Cuellar that the time has come for quiet diplomacy. Their experience has shown that delicate negotiations must be conducted in complete secrecy, away from the media limelight.
The U.N. secretary-general also said he now needs help from Western diplomats, because the job, which requires a lot of traveling, cannot be a "one-man show."
The Iranians are the key to the whole hostage imbroglio, Lubrani said before leaving Geneva. According to him, the Iranians are trying to play the "good guys" with the U.N. chief because they need his good will in their forthcoming peace negotiations with Iraq.
As soon as Perez de Cuellar has any information from them on the fate of the Israeli MIAs, he will be in touch with Israel.
Before leaving Geneva, the Israeli delegation visited the headquarters of the International Committee of the Red Cross to meet with Angelo Gnaedinger, head of its Middle East desk.
Bein of the Israeli Foreign Ministry told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that Israel would like the ICRC to take charge of the actual hostage exchange when it occurs.
The Israelis also met with U.S. officials here, as well as Swiss Deputy Foreign Minister Klaus Jacobi. The Swiss, who are masters at quiet diplomacy, have been very helpful in this delicate matter, the Israelis remarked.
Jacobi was reported Sunday to be in Teheran, meeting with leaders of the Iranian-backed Hezbollah, the Shi'ite group with which the kidnappers of the Western hostages are affiliated.

I went to Dr. Brunno Ristow in Sa Francinsc, CA. He is the best! I had my eyes done (upper and lower), my mid face and neck, and a fat transfer to my lips. It turned out amazingly well. I am 63 and its been five years now. People still think m n my late 40's.
I will have a touch up in a few years, definitely by Dr Ristow. He did a brow lift last June with another excellent result. If you are looking for a natural look, Dr. Ristow is the surgeon for you!

World Superbike Championship
Round 12: Oschersleben (Germany)
10 September 2000
Michelin heads Superbike with Edwards, and Supersport with Casoli
Texan rider Colin Edwards (Castrol Honda-Michelin) was able to make the very most of his new Michelin 16.5in rain tyres, pulling off a superb victory last Sunday in the first leg at Assen. This brings him to Oschersleben at the top of the provisional World Superbike Championship ranking, with a 20-point lead over Noriyuki Haga (Yamaha).
"I was determined to get off to a good start at Assen, and slip ahead as soon as possible," he declared. "When Troy Bayliss was riding out in front, I was happy enough to tail him, but when he came off I decided to go ahead and widen the gap. That strategy worked fine, and the new 16.5in Michelin rain tyres were just excellent. Obviously, it was a great thrill to get back up there on the highest step of the podium". Edwards, who hails from Conroe, near Houston, fared less spectacularly in the second leg, finishing fifth: "That was disappointing because it cut back the lead I'd built up in the overall championship ranking, but I'm intent on improving my performance next Sunday in Germany, where my sights are set on two first places!"
With excellent performance earning him second and third places at Assen, Juan Borja (Ducati Infostrada-Michelin) looks in top form, as indeed does team-mate Troy Bayliss, who is standing in for Carl Fogarty. Of course, the main worry for all teams is that this is the first World Superbike Championship race to be run at Oschersleben, which means that they will have to adapt quickly to determine optimum settings. Troy Bayliss, who is new to almost all the tracks this year, has already proven beyond a doubt that he can adapt quickly to new situations and therefore be amongst the favourites.
In the manufacturers' ranking, Ducati-Michelin leads (with 369 points), closely followed by Honda-Michelin (with 332) and Yamaha (with 323).
Paolo Casoli (Ducati Infostrada-Michelin Pilot) leads the World Supersport Championship ranking since last Sunday, with the final decision just two races away. The Ducati 748 bikes are currently delivering peak performances, as Ruben Xaus (Ducati Infostrada-Michelin Pilot) demonstrated very clearly in Holland. Paolo Casoli can expect a difficult time in Germany, with a lead of just six points on Jörg Teuchert (Alpha Technik Yamaha), who will be racing on home ground at Oschersleben. And at just 13 behind the leader, Christian Kellner (Alpha Technik Yamaha) also stands a definite chance. Current champion Stéphane Chambon (Team Suzuki Alstare Corona Extra) is 14 points behind, but his second place at Assen brings sound proof that there is no lack of motivation.
Paolo Casoli has the advantage of familiarity with the racetrack. In 1997 he not only won here but also set the best ever track time, starting from pole position.
Track challenges and Michelin solutions
The track is 3,667 metres (2.285 miles) long and 11 to 13 metres wide. It has 14 bends (seven rightward and seven leftward) and is run clockwise. The longest straight is 680 metres long. Spectator space is designed along arena principle, with around 70% of the audience having visibility over half of the track. Trackside space is large enough to afford good rider safety, and spectator safety is ensured by stands raised up to six or eight metres above the track.
The Motopark Oschersleben track, south-west of Magdeburg, around 150 km from Berlin and Hanover, was opened in July 1997. Construction involved shifting three million cubic metres of earth. The centre has 29 stands along a straight stretch measuring 280 metres.
The track has already hosted two legs of the World Endurance Championship. In 1999, Sylvain Waldmeier, Bernard Cuzin and Jérôme Couturier won with the Yamaha R1 entered by Team Endurance Moto 38. And this year Sébastien Scarnato, Nicolas Dussauge and Christophe Guyot won with the GMT (Guyot Motorcycle Team) Kawasaki.
Jean-Jacques Chatelier, Michelin Competition Superbike technician, knows the Oschersleben track from 1997: "It's a good, even track with the same number of left-turning and right-turning bends, most of them fairly slow. Because there are no immense straights, the rider's first impression is that overtaking will prove tricky. But in fact, right from the opening trial in the German championship it became clear that this was not actually the case."
Undoubtedly a more serious problem is that the need for adaptation to a track configuration that is very different from Assen, where the runners rode last week. This becomes strikingly evident when we realize that the fastest Supersport track speed at Oschersleben stands at 141.410 km/h (Paolo Casoli with Ducati), compared with 164.691 km/h at Assen (Iain MacPherson with Kawasaki).
The track surface is not highly abrasive, so tyre endurance is not a major concern here. Without going into too much technical detail, the fairly strong riding emphasis on the front wheels will probably lead the engineers to fit medium-soft tyres at the rear and medium-hard at the front.
Trackside logistics
For this German race, Michelin is bringing in a total of 2,000 tyres, covering wet-track and dry-track conditions.
For Superbike events there are four tyre sizes in all: 18 / 67-17 (17in) or 19 / 67-420 (16.5in) for the rear wheels; and 12 / 60-17 (17in) or 12 / 60-420 (16.5in) for the front wheels.
Trackside supplies run to 800 dry-track tyres, 200 wet-track tyres and 100 mixed tyres.
For the Supersport category, Michelin will be bringing 900 Pilot Race tyres in 120 / 70 ZR 17 and 180 / 55 ZR 17 sizes. Dry-track tyres are certified for road use and wet-track tyres are certified by the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme. This year, over half the riders in the World Supersport Championship are fitting Michelins. On-site Michelin personnel include one manager, four technicians, seven fitters (including three Germans), one motorcycle Competition Manager, one communication manager and one press officer.

Bubba Watson has his own philosophy going into the final round of this year's Masters tied for the lead.
"If I shoot 90, I still have a green jacket," he said with a laugh.
Being there before, surviving a two-hole playoff against Louis Oosthuizen to win in 2012, certainly can't hurt as Watson tries to win his second major on Sunday.
But he also will have to shake off the foibles of a third round that got away from him.
Despite making a spectacular, 5-foot eagle on the second hole, Watson was erratic for the rest of the front nine, suffering four bogeys en route to shooting a 2-over-par 74 that knocked him into a tie for first place with 20-year-old Jordan Spieth.
Friendly with Spieth and his caddie, Watson said, "We joked about it on the range today when they were going to the first tee. They said, 'We'll see you in the last group on Sunday.' And I was, like, 'You better play good.'
"Obviously, I should have played a little better."
Watson was 7-under when he teed off, bogeyed No. 1, and then rifled his second shot close on the par-5 second. When he made the putt to get to 8-under, he owned a five shot lead. But with three bogeys over the next four holes, all of his advantage was gone.
He didn't birdie either par-5 on the back despite having good chances, but suffered only one other bogey after missing the green in a tough spot at the par-3 16th.
"All in all, a good day," Watson surmised and later added, "There's a lot of people who wish they were in my situation shooting 74."
Couples' Saturday jinx
Another Masters, another disappointing Saturday for Fred Couples.
The 54-year-old with a chance to become the oldest major winner stumbled to a 73 and dropped into a tie for 10th, four shots behind. After getting in contention in the two previous Masters, Couples scored 75 and 77 in the third round.
Couples tried to look at the bright side.
"My average went down," he said. "I'm not smart enough to know what 75, 77 and 73 is, but it wasn't bad.
"It feels like when I came my first year; it's always exciting. This year is no different. I'm playing pretty good golf and I have a shot tomorrow of shooting some silly round to maybe win, but it's going to take a 65 or 66. You never know."
Jimenez, 50, shoots 66
Somewhat lost in the excitement over Couples' bid is the play of Miguel Angel Jimenez. The pony-tailed Spaniard turned 50 in January and on Saturday fired the week's best score for anybody – 66 – to match the lowest round total for a Masters player 50 or older.
Ben Hogan was 54 when he shot 66 in the 1967 third round, while Couples, then 50, matched it in the 2010 first round.
A 20-time winner on the European Tour, Jimenez has never won a major.
"Just because you are 50 does not mean you cannot play golf," Jimenez said. "I'm still flexible. I hit the ball longer than ever."
-- With Watson shooting 74 after opening 69-68, there still will not be a Masters in which a player has scored in the 60s in four rounds.
-- Tiger Woods' absence from the tournament due to back surgery likely had an impact on ESPN's ratings. For the first two rounds, ESPN reported that it averaged a 1.6 U.S. household rating and 2.2 million viewers. That was down from a 2.5 rating and 3.5 million viewers last year.

The Sunrise project, in which oil majors Shell and ConocoPhillips are partners, has been caught in a stalemate for years amid a disagreement over how to develop the 5.1 trillion cubic feet gas resource.
Last week Federal Resources and Energy Minister Martin Ferguson held a series of meetings in Dili with ministers, including Minister for Petroleum and Natural Resources Alfredo Pires. The talks covered Sunrise, as well as the bilateral treaty between Australia and Timor-Leste that covers the resource, called CMATS.
Mr Coleman said engagement between the Sunrise venture, the Timorese and Australian governments had "moved quite nicely along" in recent months.
"I think there's a 12-month window for us to make some really significant progress on Sunrise," he told The Australian Financial Review.
Under the CMATS pact, an agreement on how to develop the resource was supposed to be approved by last Saturday, otherwise either government could terminate it, throwing the whole venture into doubt.
But Radio Timor-Leste late last week cited Mr Pires saying the treaty would be continued "to defend national interest".
After meeting with Mr Ferguson, Mr Pires raised the possibility of Timor-Leste developing Sunrise without the Woodside venture, according to reports from Dili.
"Maybe we'll decide [to process the gas] unilaterally, but we have to decide with the Foreign Affairs [Ministry] of Australia," Mr Pires reportedly told journalists.
While the Woodside-led venture, which also includes Osaka Gas, has favoured commercialising the resource using a floating LNG plant, Timor-Leste wants a pipeline built to an onshore plant that would be constructed on its soil.
Mr Coleman has made efforts to repair a breakdown in relations between Woodside and the East Timorese which occurred under his predecessor, Don Voelte.
One source close to the Sunrise venture said he saw a chance for a compromise deal to start to be nutted out during the June quarter, before the Labor government goes into caretaker mode. In the best-case scenario, a final agreement could be reached by the year-end, he said.
What that compromise may be remains uncertain given the entrenched position of the Timorese government favouring an onshore plant in Timor-Leste. Woodside has previously said that option would cost $5 billion more than a floating plant, given the technical demands of building a pipeline across the Timor Trench. Funding would also be more costly, and bank guarantees more complex.
Woodside has been providing technical data to the Timorese on the project, and Timor-Leste has shared work on the pipeline option in return. Fiscal and administrative terms would only be finalised later.
"If you move from a floating solution to an onshore solution then there are certain fiscal arrangements that change and each of the parties, which include both governments, need to work through those arrangements and understand what they look like," Mr Coleman said.

BALTIMORE (Sep. 4)
The altering of the Zionist flag by the replacing of the Mogen David by the symbol of the Ten Commandments is urged by Abraham R. Gribov, a Zionist of this city.
Mr. Gribov contends, in a letter to the Baltimore Sun, that the "shield of David" being an emblem of unknown or uncertain origin and of no significance is not expressive of the history or thought of the Jewish people."
"In the family of nations with their flags, when one is displaying a rampant lion, another a snake or an elephant or a fierce eagle, it is the historic prerogative of Israel among them to display the banner of Universal Peace, Law and Order and Morality", writes Mr. Gribov.
"Amend the flag as proposed" says the Baltimorean and the nations will stand at attention before its unfurling with no less reverence than the Jewish people themselves."

From your photo it looks like the left implant is a bit high and you likely had some breast asymmetry. You may need a breast implant revision in combination with a breast lift. I would consult with your plastic surgeon.
5 Months Post Breast Implants and Left Breast is Still High - Revision Needed?
Doctor Answers 12
Implant malposition or nipple malposition? may need a breast lift or implant revision or both.

Implants asymmetric after breast augmentation
It appears that your primary problem, besides a minor asymmetry of the implants, is that the left nipple is lower. Careful before surgery measurements would demonstrate this problem.
This will not be corrected by lowering the implant alone, but by making the nipple height more symmetrical.
If the implant is moved to a position where the nipples appear symmetric, this may cause the breasts to look different in clothing.
Learn more: http://www.drbrent.com/breastliftprocedure.php
Breast implant revision
I would say the left implant looks slightly high, but the nipple on that side is probably naturally lower than the right . Moving the implant lower would make the nipple seem slightly higher or you could do a circumareolar lift to elevate the areola although you might not want the scar that is involved with that. Implants can definitely shift with time so if you aren't too displeased with them you could wait several months and see what they look like then.

Assymetry after breast enlargement?
Yes you are assymetric and likely will nee an operation to lower your left implant. Timing is variable and usually not before 6 months. It would be nice to see pre op photos. Are you the same size. The lowering of the left is very easy. Good luck
Breast augmentation revision
It appears that you have a mild asymmetry of your breasts. At 5 months you are likely not changing much. You may be ready to have a revision where the implant capsule is release on the bottom to allow the implant to descend just a very little bit.
Martin Jugenburg, MD
5 months post-op breast augmentation and one implant is still too high--what to do?
At 5 months post-op, there is not a high likelihood of enough change with additional passage of time to eliminate the need for re-operation to lower your breast pocket slightly. Although your nipple-areola complexes are asymmetrically-placed (as are virtually every woman's), they are not significantly different enough to warrant a visible scar around the areola to "lift" the areola slightly. Rather, I would suggest an inferior capsulotomy to lower the pocket slightly, decreasing the fullness in the subclavicular area on that side, and more accurately matching implant position to the other side.
This is a straightforward surgery that can be performed under local anesthesia or local with sedation in many cases, though of course, this is something you and your surgeon can discuss in detail. Best wishes!
Learn more: http://www.mpsmn.com/html/implant-revision.html
Too high implant
I agree with everyone here that at this point only revision surgery will fix the too high implant. I would see your original plastic surgeon and discuss this with him or her. Good luck
Breast asymmetry
There is definite asymmetry as most breasts do have. It will likely not change singificantly over the next few months. It looks like the left needs an areola lift and/or implant position adjusment.
Learn more: http://www.stevenwallachmd.com
Revision breast augmentation is usually successful.
I would wait another two months, and then you will need a revision breast argumentation. You can expect real improvement.
Asymmetry After Augmentation
If the degree of asymmetry which you have is bothersome to you, you will need an operation to correct it, since it is very unlikely that your implant is going to move 5 months post-op. The other consideration, however, is the degree of your asymmetry which is less than many women have who have never had surgery.

Boy Pick Up
Merry Christmas! Today we are celebrating none other than the happiest time of the year!
Here in the Philippines, we celebrate Christmas, not as an ordinary holiday, but as a very important celebration where we usually spend our time with our loved ones and eat what we call Noche Buena.
We also like to decorate our houses with colorful lights and Parols.
The traditional gift giving is also in the line-up of Christmas in the Philippines.
We also go to the Catholic tradition of Simbang Gabi.
When going out of the Church, we often eat our Suman and Puto Bung- Bong delicacies.

And our Christmas won't be complete if there is no Belen in our homes for it is true reason why we are celebrating Christmas.
Truly, CHRISTMAS IS MORE FUN IN THE PHILIPPINES! Merry Christmas!

According to Forbes magazine, Vulcan Materials moved up a spot in the S&P 500, when ranked by market capitalization. It edged out Petsmart for the 413th largest company on the ranking.
The business journal notes that market capitalization allows for a true comparison of value attributed by the stock market to a company's stock and allows an "apples-to-apples" comparison of the value of various stocks.
Vulcan's market cap is now $6.69 billion, slightly higher than Petsmart's value at $6.66 billion.

Anyone know of a product with the same or similar ingredients? The ingredients are basically bentonite clay, aloe vera juice, and essential oils. I love this product and have no plans to use any other cleanser/shampoo. That said, I'd like to find a backup product just in case the worst happens (e.g., they go out of business, change ingredients, etc.). FYI - I'm not interested in mixing my own product.

Transport Policies in Latin America
The issues of air pollution and traffic congestion in Latin America have been growing increasingly important since the end of the 20th century. The latter may help explain why several cities around the continent have tried different combination of public policies with vary-ing degrees of success. We describe the policies that outline the Latin American experience in this matter and hope to be a useful reference to subsequent research in the area.

If you're one of the early adopters of the Ouya, your video game library just got a lot bigger. Ouya, the video game console that got over $8 million from Kickstarter two years ago, just launched a program called "Ouya All-Access" that gives you access its entire 800 game library for $60 a year. The program doesn't include games that make their money off microtransactions – think of games like Candy Crush that give you five extra lives for 99 cents – but every other title in the Ouya library is fair game. The new program comes at a pivotal time for Ouya – right after Google's I/O conference, where Google announced the Android TV and video game "microconsoles" designed by Razer and Asus. Google's new products won't strike fear in the hearts of Microsoft's Xbox One or Sony's PlayStation 4, but they're direct competition to the Ouya. This new program is only in its pilot stage right now and may not stick around, so if you want to unlock Ouya's entire library for sixty bucks, you better act fast.

The forward limped out of his side's victory over Rostov on Friday, and will now miss their upcoming Champions League tie as well as Brazil's friendly with Colombia
The powerful attacker picked up the problem during the first half of his side's 2-1 win over Rostov on Friday and was replaced by Vladimir Bystrov. The Brazilian striker then underwent scans on Sunday in order to verify the extent of the problem.
The 26-year-old is now expected to be out until late November, and will therefore miss Zenit's upcoming Champions League clash with Anderlecht as well as the Russian league meeting with Volga next Saturday.
In addition, he is also likely to be unavailable for Brazil's friendly match with Colombia on November 14th, further compounding Selecao coach Mano Menezes' selection problems after Barcelona defender Adriano suffered an abductor injury against Celta Vigo.
Hulk has struggled to settle into life with Luciano Spaletti's side ever since his much-publicized 60 million euros move from Porto last summer, having scored just three goals in nine competitive games for his new club this season.

WASHINGTON (Oct. 21)
Sen, Richard Stone (D, Fla.) said here last night that he would ask for a reassessment by the United States of all aspects of its financial support for the United Nations if the General Assembly adopts the resolution passed by its Third Committee last week equating Zionism with racism and racial discrimination. Stone said he was holding in reserve an amendment to that effect which he would seek to append to the joint Senate-House resolution due to be introduced this afternoon, condemning the UN anti-Zionist resolution.
Stone, one of the prime movers behind the joint resolution, addressed 500 delegates attending the 50th jubilee anniversary convention of the American Mizrachi Women at the Statler-Hilton Hotel. He asserted that sentiment in the Senate that the U.S. should drastically revise its relations with the UN is increasing and "we will not tolerate paying the lion's share of financial support to a biased, prejudiced organization."
Stone and Sens. Jacob K. Javits (R.NY) and Abraham Ribicoff (D. Conn.) were awarded the American Mizrachi Women's "Bicentennial Public Service Award." Mrs. Sarah Shane, of Baltimore, a third generation member of the American Mizrachi Women, was elected president of the organization, succeeding Mrs. Evelyn Schreiber.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,
As you know, I have decided--thank you for your kindness--to renounce the ministry which the Lord entrusted to me on 19 April 2005.
I have done this in full freedom for the good of the Church, after much prayer and having examined my conscience before God, knowing full well the seriousness of this act, but also realizing that I am no longer able to carry out the Petrine ministry with the strength which it demands.
I am strengthened and reassured by the certainty that the Church is Christ's, who will never leave her without his guidance and care. I thank all of you for the love and for the prayers with which you have accompanied me.
Thank you; in these days which have not been easy for me, I have felt almost physically the power of prayer--your prayers--which the love of the Church has given me. Continue to pray for me, for the Church and for the future Pope. The Lord will guide us.
Today, Ash Wednesday, we begin the liturgical time of Lent, forty days that prepare us for the celebration of Easter.
It is a time of special effort in our spiritual journey. Forty days is the time Jesus spent in the desert before beginning his public life, where he was tempted by the devil.
In reflecting on the tempting of Jesus in the desert we are invited to consider a key question: What is the most important thing in my life? What place does God have in our existence?
The temptations faced by Jesus show us the risk of "instrumentalizing" God, of using him for our own interests, for our own glory. Giving God first place in the face of temptation requires "converting," following Christ and making his Gospel the real guide of our life. It means recognizing we are creatures, that we depend totally on him, on his love; that only by "losing" our life for his sake can we gain it.

text: Greetings from France and Canada! I am a Canadian studying at the University of Paris IV - Sorbonne and I was hoping someone might be able to help. My surname is of Czechoslovakian origin: I say Czechoslovakian because my family immigrated to North America prior to 1992-3, and have thus always been told it is 'Czechoslovakian,' as opposed to Czech or Slovak. That being the case, my grandfather has done genealogical research and determined that our family originated from a village called Betlanovce, near Poprad, in what is now Slovakia. I was just hoping that there might be someone who could help clarify the meaning and pronunciation of our family name. My grandfather's family immigrated to Ohio in the North-Eastern United States, and from there my grandfather immigrated to Canada after marrying my Canadian grandmother. Understandably, with all of this moving around, over the years I am sure the pronunciation has changed from the original, or what it should be. It is spelled Marecak, and it is my understanding that in the original language it is spelled with the following accents: Marečák The Americanized pronunciation sounds like: "Mare-uh-sack" with the emphasis on the first syllable. The spelling was never changed, only (I presume) the pronunciation. My mother's father is British, and he along with every other Briton I have met pronounces it: "Mare-uh-chack" with a slight emphasis on the third syllable. My grandfather himself pronounces it "Mar-sack" with the emphasis on the first syllable. Does anyone know what the name means? How it would be pronounced in Czech or Slovak? How it should be pronounced properly in English, or how to anglicise it? I'm sick and tired of not knowing how to pronounce my own name! Any and all help would be enormously appreciated. As you can imagine, it is particularly difficult to pronounce in French and I was hoping to get a definitive answer. Thank you very much in advance for your time and consideration. : )

Since her daughter was born 15 years ago, Diane Crawford-Errington has had to fight the rest of the world to keep her safe.
Tyler Payne suffers from a collection of allergies as long as a shopping list. At school, she has to be armed with an EpiPen, in case she comes into contact with peanuts.
Every cupboard in the house has to be cleared out to make sure there is no gluten that could make her ill. Sometimes, even a hot shower is enough
to induce a breakout of welts.
So when Tyler told Diane last year that she wanted to spend six months studying at a school on the other side of the world, she was petrified.
"Tyler has suffered severe allergies since she was a baby," the Whangarei mum says.
"When she was about two, she was thought to have had leukaemia, but it turned out to be infected eczema."
Tyler has coeliac disease, anaphylaxis to peanuts, allergies to citrus fruit, dust mites, lanolin, pine trees, washing powder, grass and flowers. She can't
use certain soaps and moisturisers, and has to be extremely careful what she eats.
But she hasn't let her allergies get in the way of her dream to go on a student exchange to the United States, although it's been hard work finding a family willing to take her.
"Travel is something I've always wanted to do, and when I heard about the opportunity to be an exchange student, it seemed like the best way," Tyler says.
"But I have to live my life differently. Especially when I go to other people's houses, I need to be careful."
Tyler first applied to foreign exchange group Student Travel Schools (STS) New Zealand last May, but was told the only way she could get support for her trip was if she found a willing host family herself.
She and Diane set up a Facebook page to get the word out, and recruit foreign families prepared to deal with Tyler's allergies.
Two potential hosts were found, but in both cases their attempts to make it happen failed. In the first instance, Tyler was too young. With the other option, she would have had to go to an expensive private school, because the public system in the area already had too many overseas students.
Finally, Tyler and Diane were put in touch with Shelli and Manny Arguello in Utah. The Arguellos have already hosted 18 other exchange students.
Shelli works as a co-ordinator for Face the World, an exchange scheme in the US that heard about Tyler's plight from STS.But, despite their experience, Diane says the Arguellos are worried about catering for Tyler.
"They will have to change the house a bit, but Tyler looks after herself, cleans her own room. She's just going to be teaching them to cook gluten free."
Independent health insurance had to be found, and Tyler's packing a bag full of the only type of moisturiser and soap her skin can handle.
"It's lucky she's going somewhere warm," Diane laughs.
"She's taking about 10kg of medication – there's not going to be room for clothes!"
It's a big step for a girl who has never spent more than a few weeks away from her mum. Tyler has only been as far as Australia, but says there isn't a doubt in her mind about how much she wants to travel – and she can't wait to get on the plane at the end of the month.
"My allergies have affected my life a lot, but it's just a matter of making sure everyone that knows about them."
She's hoping that her determination to experience things will be an inspiration to other young people.
When Tyler was small, then-solo mum Diane felt very isolated, but over the years they've built up a strong network, and Tyler likes to be used as an example to younger kids.
"Already we're hearing from other parents, saying, 'I never thought my daughter would be able to do anything like an exchange,' so it's great to show that it is possible," Diane says.
And Tyler's friends are as enthusiastic as she is.
"At first they didn't believe me – I guess I didn't seem like the type to suddenly decide to leave. But now they're excited. They're all requesting I bring things back!"

text: What you need to bear in mind is that although your (and many other) property(s) may have originally been single-household residences, often for most of their lives they've been multi-household properties, so each reinstatement of original use removes a household property (or more, in the cases of the larger "villa" and "mansion"-type houses) from availability. Because of this the number of households in many London boroughs hasn't increased at the ssame rate as population, which loads further pressures onto the private rental and social housing sectors. I'm not saying "bad person, you've effectively done someone out of a home", I'm saying bear in mind that the consequence of your action is one less property available to another household.

Rams snap Little Snake River's win streakSep 9, 2012 By Randy Tucker, Staff Writer
Six man football officially came to Wyoming two years ago. In that time Little Snake River High School had never lost a game. That ended Friday in Baggs when Dubois ended the Rattlers win streak, 43-36.
The win wasn't easy as the Rams survived a furious 24-point fourth-quarter comeback by Snake River to move to 2-0 on the season and most likely secure a unanimous selection as the top team in six-man football. The battle was back-and-forth in the opening period with Mitchell Baker scoring on a 36-yard run and adding the two-point kick to give the Rams a brief 8-0 lead. Cole Gourlay put the Rattlers on the board with a 22-yard run on the following possession. Snake River's kick failed to move the score to 8-6.
Dubois tallied three scores in the second quarter with Baker finding the end zone on runs of 13 and 42 yards, and Jesse Hawk adding another on an 18-yard run. Snake River kept the Rams honest with a 9-yard run by Gourlay, but the Rams held a decisive 28-12 lead at the half.
Dubois bumped its margin to 23 in the third-quarter on a 44-yard touchdown pass from Baker to Kyle Tea, and things looked good for the Rams. Snake River didn't quite see it that way and poured in 24 final period points, nearly overtaking the Rams in the process.
"We kind of helped them out at the end by putting the ball on the ground a couple of times," Dubois head coach Dave Trembly said.
Manuel Quinteros scored twice for the Rattlers on the ground, and Gourlay found Conner Lee for the other score. Snake River converted all three kicks to bring the score to 35-28 late in the game, but Tea took the ensuing kickoff and raced 62 yards for the score. Baker's kick put the Rams up by 15, and in spite of Quinteros' final scoring run, they were able to run out the clock and remain unbeaten on the season. Little Snake River's win streak ended at 23. "It was a beautiful day, it was great," Trembly said. "The kids played outstanding and kept fighting. It was a battle. We had lots of ice on the bus, but Little Snake was using a lot more ice."

DAN HICKS DIDN'T want to miss the party, especially since he was supposed to host it.
Yet keeping the engagement would be no simple matter.
The 72-year-old Mill Valley resident, best known as the longtime leader of Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks, had been diagnosed with throat cancer in January and was scheduled for radiation and chemotherapy treatments.
He had to cancel a number of gigs, but he held onto one: He just couldn't dream of pulling the plug on the upcoming Fats Waller Birthday celebration, which Hicks will host Wednesday at the SFJazz Center in San Francisco.
"I always kept this Fats Waller gig," Hicks says. "I wanted that to be the goal — to get through all this bad stuff and have this (Waller concert) still in the horizon."
Hicks is a natural to lead a tribute to Waller, the Harlem stride piano master (1904-1943). Hicks is fluent in many pre-World War II musical styles, including Waller's brand of swing, and often showcases a very Fats-friendly sense of humor in his music. One can just imagine that Hicks' own "How Can I Miss You When You Won't Go Away?" would work well in a set list with Waller's classic "Your Feet's Too Big."
Wednesday's tribute concert will feature a mix of Hot Licks cuts and Waller tunes, such as "Jitterbug Waltz," "Ain't Misbehavin'" and "Honeysuckle Rose." He will be joined on stage by the Hot Licks as well as stride piano great Mike Lipskin, who is said to be able to conjure up Waller's distinctive sound with amazing accuracy. Hicks is a longtime fan of Waller and often includes Fats favorites in his set lists.
"I've always said that good stuff is good stuff — no matter how much time passes," says the Arkansas native, who was raised in Santa Rosa. "I'm still a fan of all that stuff. And it's not like I think I'm being Mr. Nostalgic when I'm listening to it — I'm hearing good music."
Hicks certainly is no stranger to good music, having made plenty of his own over the years. His heyday came with the Hot Licks in the early 1970s, drawing critical and commercial success by blending blues, country, pop, swing, bluegrass, jazz and comedy into what's best described as a "Hicksian" sound. The group delivered a number of fine albums, including "Where's the Money?" from 1971, 1972's "Striking It Rich" and 1973's "Last Train to Hicksville," which helped land Hicks on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine.
Hicks formed the Hot Licks after his time with The Charlatans, a pioneering rock band that combined with Jefferson Airplane, the Grateful Dead and others to create the psychedelic "San Francisco sound" in the '60s.
Hicks' latest offering is "Live at Davies," which was recorded during his 70th birthday bash at San Francisco's Davies Symphony Hall in 2012. That event featured such guest stars as Rickie Lee Jones, Maria Muldaur, Van Dyke Parks, Tuck and Patti, John Hammond and Ramblin' Jack Elliott.
The singer-songwriter-guitarist sounds quite positive as he talks about his health. Having gone through the cancer treatments, he is back to playing music and says he's close to a "clean bill of health."
"I feel like I'm on the other side," he says. "I can sing. I can play. I can walk. I can talk. Right as we speak, (the cancer is) not a thing of the past. But each day it gets more that way."
What: Fats Waller Birthday
When: 7:30 p.m. May 21
Where: SFJazz Center, 201 Franklin St., San Francisco
Admission: $25 to $45

Islamabad, Aug 3 (ANI): Former Pakistan pace bowler Wasim Akram has said that the Champions Trophy was a wake up call for everyone involved in Pakistan cricket, and the selectors did the right thing to drop the likes of Kamran Akmal and Shoaib Malik.
In an interview with pakpassion.net, Akram praised the national side for winning both series in the Caribbean where Misbah-ul-Haq led from the front once again in the 50 over format.
The former player said he was delighted for Shahid Afridi who yet again made another good comeback, adding that whenever he was dropped, he came back with a bang.
However, Akram said he did not approve of the decision to give Umar Akmal the gloves because he was not a proper wicket-keeper and asking him to keep wicket just increased pressure on him, adding that he did not keep wicket in domestic cricket either. (ANI)

Lucy Scholl Releasing Self-Titled EP – Exclusive Stream
Lucy Scholl is releasing her debut EP, and she's letting readers of The Boot hear it first via this exclusive stream.
While this marks her first full release, the 20-year-old Texas native is no stranger to the music business. In 2012, the National Arthritis Foundation used her very first song, 'Walk With Me,' in a campaign for its charity walks in Dallas, and the singer-songwriter has also opened for Tyler Ward, the Nashville Tribute Band, Due West and more.
Scholl shuttled back and forth from her home in Dallas to Nashville to work with producer Brandon Metcalf on her EP, which draws on the pop country sensibilities of Taylor Swift, as well as other influences like Carrie Underwood and Martina McBride.
"I am so proud of this record," Scholl states. "I am proud of the person I became throughout the writing and recording process. It was such a learning process and time of growth for me. I am honored to have worked with so many amazing people along the way."
She adds, "I wanted to write a record that was specific to me, but relatable to everyone and I love what became of that goal. I am so excited to be releasing it for everyone to enjoy and I'm so grateful that this is just the beginning of my journey. You haven't seen the last of me!"
'Lucy Scholl' is set for release on Tuesday (July 22). The debut single from the project, 'Feel Alright,' is currently available at iTunes. For more information about Lucy Scholl, visit her official website.

DECATUR, Ga. (AP) — A school bookkeeper says she came face-to-face with a gunman at an Atlanta-area elementary school and talked him into surrendering after he fired shots at police.
Antoinette Tuff, a bookkeeper at McNair Discovery Learning Academy in Decatur, Ga., told WSB-TV Tuesday that 20-year-old Michael Brandon Hall slipped into the building after a parent who had been buzzed in. She says he told her to call a local media outlet to let them know he was prepared to kill police officers and wanted to commit suicide.
Tuff says she talked to him about her own struggles and convinced him to put his gun and ammunition on the counter and surrender.
She says Hill also asked her to use the public address system to tell everyone in the school he was sorry for the disturbance.

a nice 1954R Russian SKS!!!! i've always wanted one of these now i got one!!! anyone got a Russian version? an any insight would be awsome.
September 26, 2012, 08:32 PM
an the safety on this? is down by the trigger but is it on safe when its folded up or when its down?
September 26, 2012, 09:53 PM
How much did you pay and is it matching? I have a chinese that shoots extremely well. Wish i was a little older as i missed the boat on the cheap SKS's.
September 27, 2012, 01:25 AM
is it on safe when its folded up or when its down?
When it's up, it's safe, when it's down (lined up with the rear of the trigger guard), it's set to fire.
September 27, 2012, 07:57 AM
Nice rifles. I have a Russian 1951.
Biggest word of wisdom is to clean the barrel and gas system VERY well if you use any corrosive ammo. Oh, and don't expect great accuracy and you won't be disappointed.
September 27, 2012, 01:16 PM
$150for it an it has the chrome lined barrel right an it is matching

What's all this talk about 1954R commie this and commie that. Where's the pictures?
Ignition Override
September 29, 2012, 06:34 AM
customaquatics. Congratulations having the original type, which has no clunky grenade launcher, a chrome-lined bore, attractive wood which is harder than the Chinese choa, and the wicked blade bayonet. You have the best combination of features, in my opinion.
If not yet convinced, maybe some remarks on the Russian forum at SKSboards can better illuminate the situation.
The minor savings on corrosive Yugo ammo, versus Non-corrosive Russian, does not make it worth the burden of so much constant cleaning to avoid corrosion of the bore, chamber, bolt face, gas tube and piston.
Most SKS owners don't realize this, but no permanent alteration is needed to install a Tech Sight. My Norinco is now much more accurate. The only regret is not buying the sight much sooner.
September 29, 2012, 08:54 AM
$150for it an it has the chrome lined barrel right an it is matching
That's a steal, I paid almost $350 for my Yugo. I'd love to find a Russian SKS in that price range, maybe some day I'll find one of those deals. Enjoy it, they're a lot of fun to shoot.
September 29, 2012, 12:06 PM
here is the pride of the Motherland!! an yes its original stock!!! with the serial numbers but it was to light outside an the cell can't pick em up.
September 29, 2012, 09:24 PM
Nice looking rifle, I'm jealous. Now you're going to have to get some cheap ammo. I bought a bunch of Wolf Military Classic ammo awhile back for I think $4.15/box from AIM. Might not be as cheap as it once was but still cheaper to shoot than anything else I own short of .22lr.
October 1, 2012, 12:22 AM
Incidentally, for a nitpicky rant, "1954R" doesn't really make any sense.
The receiver cover will say something like "1954г" so sometimes people will just substitute the Russian letter "г" for the English "r" just because they look alike. So I guess that's ok.
It should be noted however that the Russian "г" makes the "g" sound as in the word get. The "г" in "1954г" stands for "год" which means "year."
Using the upper case "R" makes no sense because it doesn't either look or sound like what's on the receiver cover!

Ratings for Dr. Catherine Hui
Worst receptionist ever!!! I don't understand why they were hired. Dr. is very friendly.
In general she's good and helpful. However the receptionists there made it very difficult for us to get help. Their voice message system is designed to turn people away. You can't leave messages, and out of 20 calls 19 of them you ended up hearing a message asking you to call back later. Numerous times we have to go to other walk in clinic to get help.
Dr. Hui is very knowledgeable and patience. She gives advices and recommendation for you to choose treatment option.
Good doctor- speak multiple languages and is patient and verifies her understanding of your symptoms. Reception staff is terrible. They roll their eyes at you, and talk about you like you're not there. Almost not worth doing to Dr. Hui because of her poor staff.
Let's be positive first. Dr. Hui has been working with me for 4+ years. She is knowledgeable, although I did not encounter any serious medical problems, just normal checks. The clinic receptionists are the worst in town. You can never imgaine somebody getting paid has such terrible and poor attitude. They are rude and very cool to clients/patients. They let later comings see doctors first and keep me who was on time waiting until later comers finished. The receptionists don't deserve the pay at all. Why the doctors keep these rude people instead of hiring somebody more qualified and more professional and nicer?
Dr Hui is not a bad doctor. She is willing to refer to specialists when you insist. But her heart does not appear to be in her practice, and sometimes I overhear her discussions with staff and find the conversation pieces to be unprofessional. The office is a get-in-get-out type of place and staff is not pleasant, especially if you are a sick patient needing help.
She is also a Obestrician, so she delivered my baby, very helpful
Dr.Hui is a patient, knowledgeable doctor. I saw her during my pregnancy and her exams were thorough. The office is crowded and messy, as she shares it with other doctors. The good thing is that if she is unavailable one of the other doctors can see you. the receptionists are not friendly, but I've never met a Chinese one that is.
I am a patient. My first 3 meetings, I found her to be somewhat of a projectionist--meaning that she seemed to form pre-conceived opinions of who I was as a person, and then project them onto me. In her favour, she's gentle. I also found that she inappropriately wore very short skirts for a doctor. In fact, I'd call the way she dressed in each meeting "unbecoming an MD".
Dr Hui is caring and interested in the patients' problems. But despite referring immediately, she should pay more attention to the medication she prescribes, especially for babies. Staff is terribly unhelpful and not nice at all. Needs to work on that. Waiting time is also a problem.

Who does Rachael Ray think she is? Do we really need to be so completely overwhelmed by ferocity, grace, lady power, and hot outfits in a single episode of The Rachael Ray Show? If that was her plan for the day, she succeeded. Rachael booked not only Michelle Obama on this morning's episode, but also Nigella Lawson in her customary jewel-toned, cowlneck-and-pencil-skirt get up. Thank god Beyonce didn't jump out of the pantry, or our hearts would have stopped.
Shelly-O stopped by via satellite to show off her FLOTUS office, talk her Oscar picks (holla Beasts of the Southern Wild!), and invite Rachael to a Let's Move initiative in Mississippi, which will be featured on an episode of the show next month. Nigella prepped a lamb slow-cooker meal, kvetched about the boys on The Taste, and revealed her hoarder tendencies. In other words: Rachael Ray won today. The rest of us can quit trying.
Check out clips of their appearances below.
