At some point, Navy Cmdr. Sheri Snively realized she had to halt the daily martial-arts training she was getting in Iraq.
This chaplain from Jamul, the daughter of a Quaker mother and Navy pilot father, faced the intersection of her two worlds: How does someone who loves peace participate in war?
As Camp Pendleton Marines surge into Afghanistan amid divided public opinion about America's involvement in that nearly nine-year-old war, the Quaker minister discusses her inner struggle as a pacifist in a new book, "Heaven in the Midst of Hell." Four-star Marine Gen. James Mattis, who led Marines in the 2003 invasion of Iraq, wrote the foreword.
Snively is the Navy's only Quaker out of 861 chaplains, who include three Muslims and a Buddhist.
"I don't know that I could ever take somebody's life, but I also realized that I'm there for the warriors who we have asked to be able to do that for us," said Snively, 49, a reservist.
Her eyes filled with tears as she thought about recent news footage of a dead Iraqi child. During her 2006 Iraq deployment, she spent hours consoling the wounded and other survivors of violence.
"There were moments when many of us asked hard questions," Snively said, adding that in the crush of the action, there was barely time to ponder bigger themes.
Now, with the United States slowly withdrawing troops from Iraq, Snively accepts that there are bad people in the world but wrestles with the pre-emptive nature of the invasion.
"That's a tough one," she said, pausing and looking at her hands. "I don't speak for the military, but I think that the real key to pacifism is to work really hard ahead of time. Because by the time you get to the point where the bullets are flying, it's too late."
The Quakers, whose roots go back to England in the 1600s, boast a long history of social-justice work in America that helped free the slaves and gain women the right to vote. But the group is perhaps best known for its tradition of pacifism.
The Friends Committee on National Legislation is the oldest U.S. religious lobby and works to prevent war and weapons buildup.
Another Quaker organization, the American Friends Service Committee, pushes the government to allow conscientious objectors to perform alternative service during wartime. It won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1947 on behalf of all Quakers for postwar relief work in Europe.
In 2003, on the eve of the Iraq invasion, Quaker leaders issued a statement calling the war "unnecessary, immoral and unwise."
Still, an American Friends Service spokeswoman said the belief system leaves room for Quakers to serve as corpsmen, chaplains and other military jobs that don't involve bullets.
"While most Quakers say they are pacifists, most would say there are different ways of interpreting that," said Shan Cretin, the Friends' director for the Pacific Southwest region.
In recent years, the Quakers have set up scholarships and apprenticeships for young adults who might otherwise enlist for economic reasons. They also support service members who have a crisis of conscience and seek discharge. But they don't hate the military.
"As we do counseling now, we try hard not to come across as wanting to be disrespectful to someone who serves," Cretin said.
Snively arrived in the Anbar province of western Iraq in fall 2006, having volunteered for battlefield duty. Her journey to get there actually started long before, back in college when she hankered to fly, like her dad. Although she joined the Air Force ROTC as an engineering student, she only halfheartedly accepted a reserve commission after her short stature disqualified her for pilot training.
Several years later, fed up with engineering, Snively's heart took her to the seminary. Bumping into a military recruiter one day, she saw a career that merged the two sides of her life. She started as a Navy chaplain in 1996.
"You are looking at the human spirit, but you're not having to do it in a formal way," said Snively, now back home on reserve status. "You don't have to sit and wait for them to come into the office and have an hour appointment to talk about their problems."
Snively's duties took her to Iraq's Al Taqqadum field hospital, where she saw blown-apart Marines and Iraqi civilians being pieced back together. Sometimes, she put her own spin on healing. A practitioner of Reiki, a technique that involves laying hands on an injured person, Snively quietly administered that care to whoever wanted it.
Sometimes her ministry was just whispering in the ear of a wounded man to distract him from the pain.
Cpl. Damon Mulazzi was one worshipper in Snively's hands. The young Marine, now 26, collapsed and went into unexpected seizures. Rushed to the field hospital, he appeared to be in bad shape.
A call went out for a chaplain. Snively answered. Incoherent, Mulazzi started mumbling a Catholic rosary prayer. She joined him.
Mulazzi, now discharged and living in his native New York, has no memory of that prayer. But as a Catholic who values last rites, he appreciated Snively's care.
"I'm just glad they called the chaplain because if I did pass, you know, you don't want to go alone," he said.
Snively views those moments as her peace work. But as for making peace with her time on the battlefield, that job isn't done.
"I end the book with a sentence that I don't know how the bigger story of Iraq will end," Snively said. "I don't know how it will end for me. … Because you are forever changed."

My name is Kathy and I have lived in this house for the past 10 years. The house has been remodeled to maximize every corner of it for entertaining or pure relaxation. At the same time it is kid's heaven due to the fact that there is so much for them to do.
Kathy Shafagh purchased this house in 2004
This property is in the middle of the city but feels like you are traveling in an exotic destination, after you close the door behind you. Almost the entire house has been remodeled recently, so if you appreciate design and architecture, you will also be very happy wit your choice.
Amazing Location! Only 20 minutes form Santa Monica and Malibu,15 minutes form all the shops and restaurants of Beverly Hills, 25 minutes from Hollywood and Universal City, less than 10 minutes form Getty Center, at the same time, completely secluded and serene with one of the best views you can have in a city. During the day you have the mountains, Reservoir and City view and at night you can see the skyline from Downtown Los Angeles, to West Los Angeles and Century City. You will also have both sunrise and sunset views and the moon's reflection in the lake. The whole house has been designed to take advantage of the view inside and outside with 2 outdoor fireplaces and sitting areas. The kids will also have a blast with pool, the trampoline and the sport court. Despite the secluded nature of the property, the neighborhood super market is only 5 minutes away and there is also a restaurant, a hair salon, nail salon and dry cleaners and even a yoga studio in the same shopping center.
We stayed at the house during Christmas week and couldn't have had a better time! Yes, the views are spectacular (both day and night) and we enjoyed the backyard everyday -- relaxing in the heated pool, the hot tub at night, drinks around the fire pit, and the kids had a blast playing on the trampoline and basketball court. The house was very spacious and clean -- the master bedroom and bath are huge -- and the kitchen is well equipped for cooking and enjoying meals at home. We loved the beautiful Bel Air location, and it was centrally located to all of LA (the house is about a 10 minute drive up/down the hill to Sunset; there is a small market a minute up the road too). Kathy and her assistant were a pleasure to work with and they were always available to answer our questions. This was the perfect house for our family getaway and we can't wait to come back!
This is a gorgeous, serene property with one of the best views I've ever seen from a house! The house and backyard area are both very large, and the master suite is especially great. We were consistently pleased with the quiet as we enjoyed our drinks relaxing in the hot tub/pool and soaking in the phenomenal sunsets. Highly recommended - thanks, Kathy!
Had the most amazing start to our Californian adventure staying at this house for the first week of our holiday. The views are just spectacular and the pictures do not do this place justice. Would recommend this house to anyone thinking of staying in LA.
Big thanks from our family.
We had a great time during our stay. The villa and the pool was amazing with beautiful views and the location could not be better. When we come back to Los Angeles in two years we will always stay here. The assistance Vicky was so nice to us and helped us, what ever we needed. Thank you very much Kathy for the best time of our holidays that we ever have had.
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful villa. The other reviews say the pictures do not do it justice and that is so true the views from the house pool and garden take your breath away.The house is beautiful and modern and has every thing you need and more for a great vacation all the facilities in the house are top speck and a pleasure to use. It is in an ideal position for seeing the sights of LA Santa Monica and Malibu although it was difficult to leave the villa .We especially enjoyed the hot tub at night and the night views over the city, we will definitely be back and recommend it to all our friends.
This is a great place especially for those traveling with kids. Lots to entertain them with, and the views and the pool are simply spectacular. The location is secluded and quiet and yet a short drive to civilization (Westwood, beach)

The Original Nexus Graphitti Designs Limited Edition Artist Proof copy. It is signed by artist Steve Rude and writer Mike Baron. This was a signed and numbered limited edition published in 1985. This particular copy is an artist proof. T are very few of these in existence. Maybe less than 5 from what I have learned. The art is in black and white and it collects 1-3 of the original Nexus comic in magazine format. I would grade this book as VF as the cover has just a few minor indentations very difficult to see. The book also comes with a separate poster of the cover measuring 14 in by 22 in. This is a beautiful copy of an incredibly rare graphic novel limited edition. If you have nevr read this story than you are in for a treat. Nexus is currently being revived as an ongoing series. One of the best books from the 80s.

Minecraft's creator, Notch, has revealed his newest commercial game (sort of), Cliffhorse, in the process giving cryptocurrency Dogecoin its biggest platform yet (sort of).
Cliffhorse gives players control of a horse on a cliff, and gives them a horse-sized ball to push around which uses the same skin as the horse. That's… pretty much it. It is a very silly game.
"The entire thing is a joke," explains Markus Persson, better known as Notch, the creator of Minecraft. "It's about two hours of work in Unity, using standard and free assets. But maybe being a joke is ok?"
"The game started out with me hanging out in PewGeminiLive's livestream of a blind Skyrim playthrough, where I kept referring to the game as Cliffhorse because of the sometimes funny horse physics. People in the chat asked me to make that game, I said sure, and a couple of hours later, Cliffhorse was done. It's basically Big Rigs, but there's a ball, and you're a horse."
But Notch, put the game on Twitter, he also asked users who want "early access" to the game to send him Dogecoin.
"I was going to just release it to the people in the chat, but by the time the game was done, the stream had stopped," Notch said, "so I made a joke about 'early access' and accepted payments through Dogecoin, a crypto currency that has a definite joking edge to it. All the things referenced are things I love, and things that take things a little less than serious."
Gamers don't have to send Notch Dogecoin to play Cliffhorse, but enough people have that he has received more than $100 in donations – which makes it his first commercial game since Minecraft was released in 2009. It went on to sell more than 35m copies across all platforms.
"Somehow, my first commercial game after Minecraft ended up being Cliffhorse. Hopefully that will take some pressure off my next game," Notch added.
Taking voluntary donations for a joke game is hardly a killer role for Dogecoin, but it underlines its reputation as the fun cryptocurrency.
Unlike bitcoin, whose supporters are increasingly likely to be working for a Wall Street bank or preparing to declare themselves immune from the government, Dogecoin's fanbase seems to be mostly made up of people who like the idea of doing things like sponsoring a Nascar driver, sending the Jamaican bobsleigh team to the olympics, or just paying a video game developer a few cents for a ridiculous game about horses and cliffs.

Maybe to gauge the public reaction? Who knows, but I doubt that there are any real secrets in the ME..
A sustained attack against Iran may be a way to rally morale amongst the troops. I think we should have dealt with Iran two years ago. Saddam is dead, the Baathists are out of power, we need to focus on the real source of violence. If the admin. needs a legacy, this presents a real opportunity for them.
This is true. But in addition to being a morale booster, a sustained air campaign against Iran would A) Stop and or prevent the flow of support for the insurgency from Iran and B) Destroy the infrastructure of the Iranian military and industry to eliminate their war-fighting capabilities for further conflicts that will likely occur otherwise. I was disappointed about sending a mere 20,000 troops at first but then again this was the MSM line and I had to dig to see that there were additional changes to our strategy. My hopes are up since the Iranian factor is now being seriously looked at. Unfortunately, this angle won't be discussed by the dinosaurs.

Matthes Report: Unadilla
Matthes on Tomac, the MXoN and Webb.
The news dropped late Wednesday here in the USA. Despite previously saying he would be in, Monster Energy Kawasaki's Eli Tomac announced that he's withdrawing from the upcoming Motocross of Nations. It is a big blow to the USA team that was expected to be Tomac, Yamaha's Cooper Webb (450) and Alex Martin on the 250.
American fans have a right to scratch their head at a seemingly healthy, mega-fast rider like Tomac saying "no thanks" to one of the most prestigious races of the year and also the injured Ryan Dungey presumably saying no thanks to MXoN yet able to race the SMX Cup in Germany one week later. The American racers do twenty-nine races in thirty-three weeks starting in January and if you peruse the entry list for this weekend's national, you can see that Dungey, Trey Canard, Jason Anderson, Cole Seely, Broc Tickle, Blake Baggett, Justin Bogle, Christophe Pourcel and probably some more I'm missing aren't lining up this weekend because of injury. This sport chews them up like no other, there's no doubt about that. Why are we adding more races?
It's the sign of the times that the energy drink sponsors and OEM's determine what is important these days and not, say, the history of the sport. In my opinion, Tomac had enough of essentially being forced to race two meaningless USGP's and said enough is enough. Team USA is worse off for the decision, but maybe someone at the green claw company gets the memo that the MXoN is perhaps a tad more important than two races where there's nothing at stake and the rider doesn't want to be there?
The riders I've spoken to that have been forced to ride the USGP's have made various comments about hoping they have or acquire an injury so they don't have to go. There's enough racing in America with the twenty-nine races, the Monster Energy Cup, the Red Bull Straight Rhythm (just so you know that Monster isn't the only bad guy here) without Youthstream and Monster pushing the GPs onto American fans that, trust me, don't care.
One top trainer used the word "forced" about going to these races. Another top rider that's racing the two USGP's told me the energy drink companies are "out of hand". It seems that the only people happy about these extra American races are the people who profit and, here's a hint, it's not the ones putting on the shows.
Let's review here. The energy drink companies give the OEM's money and demand they do "their races" like the Monster Cup or USGP's, the OEM's give the riders money and demand they do "their races" like the SMX Cup and the twenty-nine USA races and then the riders want some money so they do "their" races like Lille, Geneva etc. The race that pays basically nothing and is just a pride thing like the MXoN is the big loser here. Things are changing in this world and I, for one, don't like it one bit.
Yamaha's Cooper Webb has been on a roll this outdoor series and with just three races left he has got a whole-race lead in the points. It's nuts when you think about the fact he almost didn't race the series when a practice crash before Las Vegas caused a broken wrist. The plan was to back down on practicing during the week, get through the first three races and salvage what he can. Then, with the first week off, come back at round four and try to win this title.
It has worked out perfectly really; better than he or his team could've possibly thought. I caught up to Webb earlier this week to get his thoughts on a number of topics including his run in with Pro Circuit's Joey Savatgy at Washougal.
On doing the Charlotte USGP, his hometown race… "It's a home race, yeah, so that'll be awesome. I'll definitely have a lot of friends and family and a lot of southeast North Carolina rednecks there cheering me on. That will be pretty exciting."
On the announcement of his new Yamaha 450F deal in 2017… "Absolutely. I'm sure a lot of people especially in the industry knew about it a fairly long time ago. I was stoked. I'm stoked with everything and the way it turned out. It was definitely a lot going on at the time, but it was cool because I actually got it done before supercross even started. It was nice to kind of go into the season not having to worry about anything except racing, so that was nice. It was definitely an exciting time.
"I actually enjoyed it, as far as getting to meet some of the people and seeing what other teams and whatnot were about. But I'm stoked with the way it turned out. Having Chad on there will be badass. I think everybody's motivated."
On having Chad Reed for a teammate… "I would just say his experience and his overall demeanor. He was always my favorite rider growing up, so I'm going to be a little biased, but I think that guy is something special. To still be doing it at this age, I really respect that. I think he looks at it a lot differently than a lot of these guys. I think he has been there and has been in about every situation you could be in. So I think to have a teammate that's willing to pass on his knowledge and make it a real team effort.
"I think he's not just looking out for himself. Obviously he wants to go out and do the best he can and all that, but I think he's kind of gotten to that point where he just wants the team to do well."
On how close he came to signing with another OEM: "At the end of 2015 outdoor season I was riding their bike at 'Nations and stuff like that and there were no talks of the factory team, even then. I was kind of like, 'well okay, do I go to JGR or whatnot?' They had just signed Barcia so it was like, 'shoot.' Obviously I like all the guys at Yamaha. I'd like to stay but there wasn't anything really there. Then basically I was talking to some other teams.
"At that time, Kenny obviously was up too but nobody really thought much of it I guess for some reason. So there was obviously a lot of talk. Once rumors spread and stuff like that and he was a free agent I think it changed a little bit, but there was still a lot going on and stuff like that."
On riding for Team USA at the MXDN again: "I don't know how official or anything it is, but I have definitely been contacted. I think, as of right now, that's the plan to do it again on the 450, which I think will be good. At first I wanted to really do it on the 250 because I just feel honestly really good on my 250 right now and I didn't want to change anything. But I think it would actually be really good, because I'll be able to get some initial testing out of the way. Just kind of give me a real new motivation. Obviously I'm motivated, but to try to tackle a pretty big challenge. That'll be good. It'll be interesting, though. Obviously I don't know how true it is or whatever, but I heard (Dylan) Ferrandis got hurt today. I saw they announced their team the other day. I was pretty surprised that it wasn't actually Marvin."
On his "incident" with Joey Savatgy at Washougal: "I can be open about it. Obviously I pulled the holeshot, which was pretty cool for me. That corner he came in very hot and pretty straight. I felt like if I would have done the corner the way the people were doing the corner every lap I would have gotten t-boned. It's racing. But the first lap when we're one and two and felt like maybe that's not the best way to start it off. I just knew he was going to try to do that just to get in my head. I just said, 'well, if you want to do that then I'm going to hit you right back'. I don't know why he left the inside open.
"I went to make the pass and then I wanted to give him a little brake check. I think he wasn't really expecting it and just hit me. Basically once he hit me I got sketchy. We both really just got sketchy and Jeremy Martin happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Obviously I didn't want to take anybody out. I meant to just kind of show him what he did to me. He gave me a little brake check. I was going to give him a little brake check and go from there, and that escalated pretty quickly."

Who Plays Lucious Mom On Empire?
There's nothing like a good mother! This article discusses an element of the Empire TV show that fans may find confusing. Two actresses have played Lucious' mother on Empire: Kelly Rowland and Leslie Uggams.
|Who Plays Lucious Mom On Empire?
Leslie Uggams has played Leah Walker in the show's most recent episodes. While Cookie attempts to calm Lucious down about his mother, the show's leading man knows better.
Kelly Rowland played the younger Leah Walker that we all thought committed suicide:

The show continues to explore issues that are typically ignored in African American communities. The show's first season did so through Trai Byers' character, Andre. The show's current season has provided a more complete look into the lives of individual's with mental disorders.
While many fans race to create memes involving some of the show's intense content, it's important for us to accept some of the lessons we are learning from Fox's hip-hop series. It may be difficult to admit it, but Cookie Lyon was mistaken when she suggested that certain conditions were "white people problems".
The African American community must make seeing doctors and specialists on a regular basis a priority as too many common issues continue to be ignored. It's easy to put off our problems and most of the time we decide they need to be fixed when it's too late! Do it today, because tomorrow is not promised!

Leadership Forum participants are busy career federal executives who seek solutions to common problems that stifle the public policy implementation process.
From Google to Genentech to the US Army, public and private sector organizations have developed mindfulness programs and are seeing results. It is being introduced to deal with stress, and develop the kind of leaders we need in today's increasingly VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity) environment. Mindfulness instruction will be given along with a panel discussion and Q&A.
Date: Thursday, December 3, 2015
This special networking forum creates an environment where federal executives can explore and discuss solutions to common challenges that can impede the public policy implementation process and hinder the success of a strong workforce.
Have you sent employees to leadership development programs and when they returned to the workplace they showed no evidence of having attended? Do you wonder whether a leadership development program will ever lead to changed employee behavior that results in improved employee engagement and increased agency productivity?
Please join us for a presentation of a team from the U.S. Citizen and Immigration Services, Department of Homeland Security as they describe their leadership development experience that led to their changed behavior.
Leadership Forum participants are busy career federal executives who seek solutions to common problems that stifle the public policy implementation process. The attendees are key stakeholders of public policy: members of Congress, political appointees, SES career executives, union and association presidents, members of consulting and technology firms, and academics. These decision-makers recognize that collaboration is critical to successful implementation.
ISPPI provides well-known experts in public policy who faced the same implementation issues that plague Leadership Forum participants. These experts provide information and reveal the strategies and tactics they used to address implementation problems.
Ideas for Leadership Forum meetings come from meeting participants, and straight from the headlines. Some of the issues previously discussed include:
The issues discussed at Leadership Forum meetings are broad-based. The lessons participants learn from their interaction with Leadership Forum experts provides participants the opportunity to learn and attain tools to be used to implement the changes necessary to improve agency performance.

Marci Babineau
For three years, Marci Babineau's backyard chickens made her the poster girl for the urban chicken movement in Montreal. Media outlets big and small covered the story all the way to Toronto. The day I spoke to Marci was the day after her chickens had moved to the Eastern Townships. She was missing them but as far as she was concerned they had earned their new country home. The chickens (they each had a name) had supplied Marci and her family with five eggs a day – a lot of work for five chickens.
Marci had grown up around chickens in Southern California and had raised them as an adult in various places in the United States, but never in the city. A food activist with a mission, a Westmount backyard seemed like as good a place to start as any. Marci had already planted her mini-food forest, a permaculture staple, in her yard, but what her garden needed to take it to the next level was a steady supply of compost. That is where the chickens came in. And it worked; Marci witnessed an "amazing change" over a period of three years. The poop and bedding "enhanced the garden two hundred percent," she told me. And then of course there were the direct health benefits for her family. Relaxed, well-cared for chickens produce better quality eggs that are shown to be lower in cholesterol.
After the neighbours were consulted and the bylaws gone over, the playhouse under the balcony was renovated to accommodate the hens, along with nesting boxes, litter, and an enclosed run. "In Westmount it is really about what your neighbours can bear." For the first couple of years they were mostly charmed. When Daisy decided to go on a walkabout one day she attracted the attention of the local constabulary. Marcia thought she was busted when she saw two Westmount security guards walking into her backyard with Daisy in tow. But instead they only showed concern. They wanted to make sure the chickens were safe. She gave them some eggs. Maybe that helped. Much to Marci's surprise, the incident only served to heighten support for the chickens locally. By this time she was already inviting the Boy Scouts, Concordia students, and other interested groups to visit her backyard coop. And the chickens loved the attention.
In Montreal it is up to the boroughs to decide who can keep chickens, but only Rosemont has allowed them and then only in a tightly controlled situation such as an educational tool for children. Chickens lived in Montreal backyards until a bylaw banned them in 1966, a year before Expo 67. It is not difficult to guess what lay behind the City's new restrictions. The world's spotlight was to be on Montreal. Chickens running around back lanes was not commensurate with the image of a modern sophisticated world-class destination, the image the City desperately wanted to cultivate.
When rats discovered the chicken feed they began to regularly dine at Daisy's coop. The next-door neighbours were not impressed and support for the chickens swiftly declined. The chickens became the "scapechickens" for other neighbourly tensions and Marci knew that it was time to find them a new home. Rats and squirrels present a major problem for urban agriculture. Marci readily admitted that there are real hurdles to having chickens in your backyard, space being another challenge, especially in the denser neighbourhoods like the Plateau. But the same kind of issues affect plants and animals wherever you raise them, nor are pests restricted to the city. The City of Vancouver allows chickens and provides instructions.
Promoting chickens in the city was only part of Marci's mission. She also worked to heighten the presence of urban agriculture more generally through public workshops and the planting of edible foods in public spaces. She was a core member of Transition NDG, a group of like-minded people looking for community based solutions to the challenges of climate warming, peak oil, and economic instability both locally and worldwide. "For the most part the reception has been amazing," she tells me. Inspired by Incredible Edibles, a movement that originated in England to plant vegetables and fruit and nut trees in public spaces, Marci convinced Westmount to install edible planters instead of the traditional flower boxes.
Marci moved to England at the end of the summer. Who is going to speak up for backyard chickens in Marci's absence in this an election year? Urban agriculture has yet to become an issue in the current municipal campaign. Although both Projet Montréal and Vision Montréal have shown support for local urban agricultural initiatives (with Projet promising a centre for urban agriculture in Outremont), no one has taken a position on chickens or on urban agriculture more generally. Food insecurity, unhealthy eating, habitat loss due to urban sprawl, heat islands, and global warming are just some of the issues that urban agriculture tries to address. Montreal has more urban sprawl than any other city in Canada and it is only getting worse as people continue to flee to the suburbs. Yes, we need to think about ways to prevent corruption in the City's administration, and expanding public transportation infrastructure is a no-brainer. But if we want to make our cities more inhabitable we need to think green and nothing encourages green like chicken poop. Think about it.

That's too bad. I really wanted to go check out her set up. We aren't allowed yet in NDG I think but I would love to try once we can!
Marci Babineau
Hey Rob, I am still lurking in cyber space, and I can only say that if you want to have chickens and have space for a coop, just do it. For a whole year having them in Westmount, I did not know if I would get into trouble. I know several people in the NDG§Cote Saint Luc area that have hens and have done for some time. Sometimes one has to practice some civil disobedience to make change. Politicians are only going to go with the flow, but will happily support things when they don't think that they need to duck and cover. Once there is a reasonable ground swell for having hens, it will be so obvious people will be gobsmacked that they ever thought otherwise. All it takes it a little leadership and some kitchen scraps.

BETHANY BEACH, Del. (AP) - The Bethany Beach Town Council has approved the purchase of a new trolley to add to its fleet for the summer season.
The town will spend about $167,000 for the new trolley. It will be the town's third trolley and is meant to compensate for mechanical problems on the other vehicles.
Officials say the trolleys are popular with children and help cut down on traffic.
Bethany purchased its first trolley in 2003 and another in 2005. They both have about 125,000 miles on them. Officials don't expect to operate all three trolleys at the same time, but that could change. Plans call for using one trolley as a backup.
The new trolley will be equipped with handicap ramps and will have a larger diesel engine.

Currently, there are no molecular probes that are specifically designed for quantitative imaging of articular cartilage health. In osteoarthritis (OA), the articular cartilage becomes degraded with loss of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) from the cartilage matrix serving as an early biomarker of the disease process. As such, there are clinical opportunities to mitigate cartilage damage in patients if OA is identified in its earliest stages. Ionic Pharmaceuticals is developing a novel cationic CT contrast agent for targeted quantitative imaging of changes in GAG content and mechanical properties of articular cartilage. Recent data demonstrates that the cationic contrast agent (CA4+) is more sensitive at imaging ex vivo and in vivo articular cartilage than currently available commercial anionic contrast agents. This superior performance of the cationic contrast agent is attributed to the electrostatic attraction between the cationic contrast agent and the negatively-charged GAGs present in articular cartilage. Two critical steps towards commercialization of this technology and the use of this contrast agent in the clinic are addressed in this proposal: 1) GMP synthetic scale-up, necessitated by subsequent pharmacokinetics studies;and 2) Characterization of the interaction between CA4+ and GAGs along with the capability of CA4+ to quantify GAG and mechanical properties in human articular cartilage. Thus, the specific aims of this proposal are:
Specific Aim 1 : GMP Synthesis of CA4+ (500 g) and establishment of analytical methods.
Specific Aim 2 : Characterize the interaction between the CA4+ and glycosaminoglycans found in human articular cartilage tissue and determine the correlations between CECT attenuation, GAG content, and cartilage mechanical properties.
Sensitive molecular probes and imaging technologies for monitoring changes in osteoarthritic cartilage are urgently needed for pre-clinical and clinical studies. Currently, there is no known cure or a sensitive imaging method that can be used to diagnose osteoarthritis at an early stage. This SBIR Phase I proposal furthers the development of a new cationic CT molecular probe or contrast agent for quantitative imaging of cartilage, by manufacturing it on a large GMP scale. Additionally, determining the relationships between GAG content, cartilage mechanical properties, and contrast enhanced CT attenuation in ex vivo human articular cartilage will extend our previous work towards the objective of developing a clinically valuable diagnostic technique.

Hi. I am planning a visit to S.E. Michigan in September. I will be staying somewhere in or around Auburn Hills. I used to visit Big Bucks, but I believe that it is now closed in Auburn Hills. Any ideas as what would be a good steak restaurant to visit? Any suggestions for good BBQ? Of course, I will be making my pilgrimage to The Breakfast Club in Madison Hts., but anywhere else in the same league?
Thanks for your help Michigander Chowhounds!

Meet Alile.
Alile is a typical 16 year old girl. She enjoys dancing, hiking and plays in her school's football team. She is a model student, works hard and dreams of one day becoming a neuro-surgeon.
But Alile's future hasn't always been bright. More than ten years ago, at the height of the AIDS epidemic in Malawi, both her parents died of AIDS. Her grandmother took over the care of Alile and her sister, but struggled to find the funds to send the girls to school.

Awesome 75% off All Japanese Pass Discount
One Month $19.95 – 33% off
One Year $7.49 a month – 75% off
The Japanese believe that by all means, we are the sole creators of our destiny. Yet, we can't, by any means, dictate the course of that destiny. You can't teach a person how to do things right by proving him wrong. It is like raising someone from the dead by killing him twice. And you don't have to wish for eternity when you fall for someone. If she turns out to be a disappointment, a bad memory is all that you need. A thing that must never be forgotten though would be all of the precious times you spent together fucking each other. Japanese love reminiscing all of their sexual times and if you are also enamored by their fervent desires, take not a single mistake and join All Japanese Pass.
AllJapanesePass wants you to suck the need for you to live and let live, or become the object of other people's loss of respect that you merit, and reasonably so. In like manner, women who engage in the porn industry in Japan are freed from prejudice at all. They all understand one another's unique needs and desires, and the different, more to the point contradicting means they may have to take. With it being a pass site, you can expect it has a myriad of niche sites injected into it, all parts of the gigantic whole that caters to every Asian porn lover's needs.
I don't give a flying freed dog fuck what you eat, until the moment you tell me off for what I eat and call me a horrible person for it. In this site, they will show you how Japanese women don't give a fuck by swallowing jizz off of the man's penis and kissing thereafter just to show that equality means that the other needs to taste what the other will. With Bukkake Now, Anal Nippon, and Public Sex in Japan are three of the most beloved niche portals in this site. Nonetheless, there are 15 more sources that create the 18,000 videos database of this perfectly crafted voyeuristic genius.
An extremely massive amount of Japanese porn you say you want to munch on? Ultimate HD quality it is that you seek? It's really hard to find this kind of combination, but luckily there's our All Japanese Pass discount to perfectly fill that spot. Subscribe and enjoy Jap porn like never before.

Birds and Sheep
IJmuiden Travel Blog› entry 15 of 17 › view all entries
We began our day with a beautifully arranged breakfast served to us. This was our first breakfast decoratively arranged on each plate instead of self-service. We rode in the van through Nijmegen to avoid the rush hour traffic. We began our ride near the Bed of Flowers B & B in Beuningen. We rode on the dijk for approximately 20 km and saw hundreds of beautiful birds (we all thought it must be a conservation area due to the large flocks.
There was a new challenge today to improve our cycling skills - dodging the sheep who were on the path as well as the poop. Our balance and reaction time was good but not perfect (tires will need cleaning)! We also created another saying "Nose in the Sheep poop" to indicate a bad day or opposite of "Nose in the butter".
The last part of the ride was beautiful in the countryside. All cyclists were quiet and a bit sad because the tour was almost over. We finished our cycling tour and disassembled the cycles in a sunny location by the church of Wijk bij Duurstede. Of course we had some cocktails to celebrate, and the final count was 27.
We did not book our hotel ahead and had difficulty finding a place near Amsterdam due to a large conference. We ended up in the port city of Ijmuiden. We had a late dinner in a seafood restaurant near the port. After climinb three flights of narrow stairs with our luggage, we were ready for some rest.
Ride: Beuningen - Druten - Amerongen - Wijk bij Duurstede

It's been a wee while since I did a fashion post, so thought I'd pop a few pics up of recent pictures. I want to do a post about my skinny leg work trousers and the new H&M t-shirts which have fulfilled a long required need, but maybe another day. Today we talk Baukjen, Phase 8 and H&M cardigans.
I do require quite a strict set of rules when it comes to clothing. Specifically that they should not be creasable, not require ironing AT ALL and (until recently) be machine washable. The last rule has been relaxed of late, partly because so many of the lovely Mint Velvet clothes I have bought all require hand washing, but when you've got 2 or 3 they can be hand washed together and I now hang them up in my downstairs shower which is never used, so there is less hassle. However, I can't be doing with ironing. If it can't be washed, hung on a hanger, dried and then put straight in the wardrobe then it will be worn once. Frankly I don't have that kind of money to burn.
So this first purchase was bought a while back (I know this because when I found the pics I had long hair). I bought it during the Baukjen sale and liked the entire outfit so bought it all. The belt had already been purchased, see here, and as I had been initially reluctant to buy such an expensive belt, it came as some relief to create a second outfit that I could wear it with and get some more use out of it. The top is a polyester material which drapes well. It's end of season, but Baukjen do many tops in a similar fabric and I'm sure this will be redesigned again. The skirt is still available and is called The High waisted Pencil Skirt. They refer to it as "heavy weight Ponte" which is Viscose, Polymide and Elastic. It's basically thick and stretchy, so perfect for winter (and summer as it turned out). I did think that getting it high-waisted would kill two birds with one stone and flatten my tummy, but I did struggle to get in the damn thing to start with. I bought a Size 10, but often the waists don't fit (well certainly not from some stores like Miss Selfridge and River Island) and I did panic that I would have to return it for a 12. The trouble was that the skirt fitted everywhere else really well and I was worried that going up a size would stop it from being clingy. As it turned out I just needed to try it on in the morning (after dinner was a bad idea) and if I hoiked it up high enough I could pull the zip up and then readjust. The look is definitely worth it and it wasn't uncomfortable at all. I've worn it quite a few times to work, although not on the days I cycle in (obviously). I wore it on this occasion with a pair of flat black heels, but have also worn with a higher heel as well.
My two second purchases were from Phase 8. A store that I have sidestepped for years because it just screamed "50 YEAR OLD" to me, but either they have started making more contemporary clothing or I'm just getting to the stage where a 2 piece skirt suit looks appealing, I don't know (I'm joking by the way. No 2 piece skirt suit for me, thanks!). Anyway, again in the sale I picked up two dresses which I would not have purchased online for fear that the hemline was too short, or it made me look dowdy. The first one is the Luna Print dress (still available) with a flattering empire line flower design in stone and white jersey. It is very flattering for me, sits just above the knee and doesn't swamp my small boobs. The sleeves are also a bonus as they cover that part of the arm nobody is that keen on when they are 40+.
The second dress is the Edith Pleat Front dress (also still available) and is a lovely soft grey jersey, gathered in the centre of the dress. Perfect to dress up or dress down and very flattering. It does bag a little around the boobage area for me, but not enough for me not to wear it. If you have more up top, then this dress is incredibly flattering. Here it is …
I have had these two dresses for a while and then we had the Brugge trip looming and the prospect of only 2 days and a night there, ending up with a meal at the Wolsely in London at the end of it. I wanted to pack very lightly and these two dresses fitted the bill. I wore the Grey one out during the day and for the evening at a restaurant and then planned to wear the flowered one the next day, through to the evening meal and changing my comfortable walking shoes for a pair of navy blue strappy sandals. I just needed to zing both dresses up with a bright cardigan and I took to twitter for suggestions on what colour.
I ended up going for the colour first suggested as I had dreamed of wearing this colour one day and I thought it would look good. Quite a few others mentioned it, but I was also suggested fuschia and yellow as other options. This was the colour…
Yep. I went with mustard. Purchased it for £9.99 from H&M which was a darn sight cheaper than the slightly more greener (and probably wrong) cardigan at Hobbs for £69.
And here it is with the outfits I wore on the two days. Both with my rather clonky but comfortable white Clarks walking shoes, but I took a photo of me yesterday wearing it for work with some black and white flats from Dune.
What do you think? I'm really glad I took the plunge on the colour. Will definitely try to step out of my comfort zone again.

Base Record Shop!
I went to the record shop in Koenji called Base. I always find good stuff in here, last time I found the spiky joys split. Fucking awesome!! And the records are always cheap compared to other places like amoeba in LA.
It's cool, they have these awesome Gauze paintings on the wall. I don't know who made them or if they are the originals that were used for their cover but they are cool though!
It's pretty small but they have a lot of stuff. I couldn't find any Spanish punk though, it's a shame. I was hoping to get some cheap Spanish punk records.
I was ecstatic when I found this Stagnation ep. I thought this was a record but it turned out to be a Cd, what the fuck man.
The store's entrance is decorated with flyers for upcoming shows and new records. It's pretty easy to find.
I also found this Gauze ep which was only 500 yen or 5 dollars! Fucking cheap! That's it for this place. I'll probably visit this place often.

Enjoying life in Japan!!! Pictures of punk, people, food, places and other cool stuff from Japan!

Songstress Zahara's legal team is all set to go after True Love magazine with a claim of R3-million damages after the tabloid associated her with drugs.
Yesterday, the Loliwe hitmaker confirmed that she was planning to sue True Love for reputational damage.
Apparently, she's not letting the magazine go scot free after publishing a "misleading" and "tasteless" article about her.
Read Also: Zahara Locks Horns With True Love Magazine
"I am tired now so I have to start with True Love," Zahara fumed.
"It's misleading because when you read inside the magazine in the article there is nothing about drugs.
The tabloid put her as its January cover girl with the headline: "Zahara – Marriage, Drugs & Selling Records". This infuriated the singer who maintained that in the interview, there was little or no mention of drugs.
Though the interview touched several parts of her life, she only mentioned drugs once when her drinking habit came up. When the interviewer brought up tabloid reports stating that her friends call her house a bottle store, Zahara replied;
"I don't drink in public because I respect my fans. I'll never lie and say I don't drink, I do. I'm of age and I'm allowed to."
She then added; "I've never been on drugs either. I'm clean as a whistle. And that's that."
However, when the issue was published, Zahara said the caption deviated from what was discussed during her interview with the magazine.
"They show everything including exclusive pictures of me and then outside because they want to make sales then they put drugs as a headline," she said.

"Some people don't have money to buy the magazine so they will just read the cover and make up their minds on me without reading the inside."
Meanwhile, a member of Zahara's legal team confirmed that the star would be taking the matter to court. She is suing for defamation of character.
A lot of people agree that the songstress has a strong case against the magazine which has refused to comment. At first glance at the cover of the January issue, one might just draw wrong conclusions about Zahara.
