A Widows Last Day - Poem by Brittney Pennington
lifeless eyes
forgotten smile
she walks through the familiar world
grey sky's wilted flowers,
sound of laughter long extinct,
her heart once filled with love and joy
now drained of all hope,
she sits on a cold stone bench
next to the ghost of her forever,
she turns her back on the light
blaming everything good for her pain,
feeling guilty for being able to feel the
gentle rays of the sunlight on her cold face,
she sits there most the day,
her mind wandering to happier times
yet none of the joy can reach her
broken soul, the chill of the night forces her
back into her drafty old house,
she goes about her routine,
cooks her stew for one butters her bread,
and sits at the table staring at
an empty chair longing for conversation,
a stray cat meows at the window
she kindly lets him in and puts down a
bowl of milk, she stirs the restless fire,
and walks up the stairs to her bedroom,
climbs into what once was her marriage bed,
and closes her eyes for the last time and
after many years of sadness her soul
is finally at peace as she stands next to her love
Comments about A Widows Last Day by Brittney Pennington

I do like the way you describe the situation- it is mind-blowing.
I love this......
she goes about her routine,
cooks her stew for one butters her bread,
and sits at the table staring at
an empty chair longing for conversation
It makes me be able to reach the feeling you are trying to convey.
In short, your poem is very glorify :) (Report) Reply

Nice description of the widow's last day. The imagery stirs the heart.And finally when she is at peace next to her lover soothes the troubled mind.
At so young an age when you can write so wonderfully I think you'll rise to great heights in the poetry world.
With all best wishes for the budding poet. (Report) Reply
Josiah Decker (12/4/2012 10:38:00 PM)
Love it! I myself love a more melancholy poem myself, but you ended it in way that a person couldn't help but smile a bit after reading it. Again great job, keep on writing! (Report) Reply

Environmental Risks Of Drilling In Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
January 24, 2001
Environmental opposition to opening the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) to oil exploration ignores the history of ecologically safe oil drilling in Alaska and the considerable benefit that ANWR's vast oil reserves would provide, says the National Center For Public Policy Research.
- Environmentalists contend oil exploration would turn ANWR into a vast landscape of unsightly derricks, roads and pipelines that would irreparably harm the refuge's scenic attractions.
- They also claim that oil drilling poses unacceptable risks to the polar bears, caribou and other ANWR wildlife.
But experts say it is possible to drill for oil in ANWR without hurting the refuge's environment.
- At Prudhoe Bay on Alaska's North Slope, 60 miles west of ANWR, companies recover 1.4 million barrels of oil per day; yet drilling rigs, production facilities and gravel roads cover only two percent of the 250,000 acre Prudhoe Bay field.
- Due to advances in drilling technology, oil companies would only use as little as 2,000 acres of the 19 million acre ANWR to recover huge amounts of oil, estimated to be as much as 16 billion barrels.
Although there is not one species of animal from either the North Slope or the ANWR coastal plain that is listed as endangered, wildlife would be protected.
- For example, the Marine Mammals Protection Act protects the polar bears in the North Slope oil fields, and not a single polar bear has been killed or injured due to operations at Prudhoe Bay.
- Likewise, there is little reason to fear that caribou at ANWR would be harmed given that the Prudhoe Bay caribou herd has actually grown in size since the 1970s.

Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit
Hey All
I am having the same issue with this WINDOWS Explorer finding a problem and restarting continuously. I can operate the PC in a rudimentary way by using the task manager to kill the explorer process and then start a cmd prompt. However anything that involves browsing for a file in a directory (inlcuding some of the control panel tools) fires up windows explorer which then dies with the same error !
This started occuring on 15 Feb 2010. A couple of windows updates were automatically downloaded and applied over the preceeding few days which is the only thing that changed... I think on the 12th there was a bunch of 7 updates and then on 13th or 14th another one. Perhaps my bug is a valentines gift from MS ??haha
So far I have tried a number of things, including registry cleaning, CMF scan, starting in safe mode and restoring to restore points. Nothing has any effect.
Anyway I am just considering doing a repair install and then if that does not work a clean install. Before that I will also try out the free recommended registry fixup program linked from this thread.
The clean install is probably a good option as its a secondhand PC (less than 1 year old and good spec gear) and the previous owner seems to have been keen on loading all sorts of stuff. I will update my profile with PC details when I get home but its a Core 2 Quad processor - I think 2.33 gHz. 4G DDR3 ram. Asus motherboard (forget which) with NVIDIA video card. Previous owner was a gamer who works in a PC store :-)
However here is my question (finally !) - I have a couple of older software packages that I am used to for processing photos and running my Sony HDD walkman. I'd rather not find alternatives (I can't for the Sony one) however I am not sure if there are any issues with these programs that could have clashed with the recent updates and if I should reinstall them or not
Programs are
Sony Sonicstage 4.3
Nikon Picture Perfect 1.5
I did do a bit of internet search about these before installing. Sony one is reported to be okay for Vista/Win7. Nothing I could find about Picture Perfect and Win7 issues.
When installing PP windows told me it needed to run in compatible mode and I accepted without too much thought (opps). Prior to the windows explorer issue PP did crash 3 or 4 times which it had not done before. I think this may have been an early symptom of the windows explorer issue rather than the cause tho...

Experience Johannesburg South
The Johannesburg South Neighbourhood includes the suburbs of Bassonia, Glenvista, Lenasia, Oakdene, Winchester Hills and Mulbarton. Although the area is being developed fast, Johannesburg South still retains much of its natural beauty. With the endless hills disappearing into the horizon, and many exclusive wildlife estates, one might imagine being in a nature reserve. "The South", as it is most commonly referred to by the locals, is mainly divided into two main parts - the older part on the north side of the N12, and the newer part on the south of the highway. The people of "the South" are family-orientated and active.Find out more about Johannesburg South

- Time:
- 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
- Location:
- Kellogg Hotel & Conference Center AuditoriumÂ
- Department:
- Asian Studies Center
Networking reception will immediately follow the lecture
India is the largest producer of milk in the world today - thanks in large part to a Spartan. MSU alumnus Dr. Verghese Kurien was the architect of India's "white revolution" that transformed the country from a milk-deficient country to the world's biggest milk producer - improving the lives of millions of rural farmer families across India. His remarkable life and achievements are an embodiment of his faith in the ability of the common man to exercise control over his destiny.
In this public lecture, Mr. R.S. Sodhi, Managing Director of Amul India, will take the audience through a journey of Verghese Kurien's life and contributions, including the founding of Amul and its growth into a powerhouse as India's largest milk cooperative and food company. Mr. Sodhi will share his vision for Amul's future, and outline the opportunities and challenges in the context of India's growing middle class and the need for economic, environmental, and social sustainability.


text: So I had a few ringtones that were set exactly how I wanted them for timing etc for my iphone. Well I have Mabilo ringtones installed and it works well. (After finding out about the .nomedia thing so they dont show up in my music player.) So what I did was convert my M4R to MP3. Then I went into Mabilo and downloaded the ringtones they had for the songs that I wanted. I then copied the file name and overwrote the name for my version of the mp3 and then copied it into the mabilo folder. And voila, my ringtones are there. No need to edit and crop all over again etc on the phone. Hope this is useful for someone out there. And with my luck somone will say oh just use "X" app and it is much better. But being the android noob I am and wanting to contribute to this forum this is my first shot. JR

What's Next - 2014 Edition
Over the past couple of years I've kept a folder in my inbox called "good stuff". Whenever I've received a compliment or pat on the back, I'd always file it away in there. It started as something to help boost my personal business commitment (PBC) rating while I was working at IBM, but has since transcended into much more. Every so often I look back into that folder, of which I do equally as much on both good and bad days, as a reminder of what's been accomplished. I'm humbled to say that I've never been so proud of that folder as I am looking back at 2013. This year was big, it started with the announcement of our company, a sort of silent opening. A few short months later we revealed our grand opening, which is when it truly began. We took the plunge, made the investment, and grew our team by 50%. It was a major step, but thankfully one that has already paid itself off many times over. We created a recipe that consisted of a finance team, a sales team, and a technical team. This recipe has no doubt proven itself to be successful in just a few short months.
Our coming out party was at Innovate 2013. We showed up in June with not just a success story but a no fuss solution that could be demo'd and put to use out of the box in real world customer environments. We gushed about our technology: a utility to automate the import of mainframe artifacts into Rational Team Concert (RTC). We illustrated our training philosophy: emphasizing that progress requires change and that course work for developers must be written by developers. And finally we discussed our process: talking about how we achieved success with our clients by not shying away from how we got there, which was through calculated failure.
The year rolled on and we rode the momentum from Innovate. Keeping busy with a constant barrage of customer work, we iterated on our software, updated our processes, and ended the year having established newfound confidence among our customers and partners... adding a few new logos to our client list along the way. This success has bled into 2014 with us signing all of our customers back on for the entirety of the new year. We look forward to another year of bliss with what we believe is great software, IBM RTC.
The past year has been fantastic, fueled by our wonderful company culture, we simply can't wait for what's in store for 2014. In the upcoming weeks we'll be revealing our plans for the next 12 months, but here's a quick sneak peak of what to look out for:
- Have a customer interested in RTC? Have them come out to a brewery tour where they can enjoy a cocktail while learning about IBM solutions. Look for this event in both Raleigh and Charlotte, North Carolina in Q1.
- Tired of talking and want to start doing? Get in touch with our sales team for a free trial of our software and instantly enjoy the value of your RTC installation.
- Want to learn how to better leverage your team's ability to learn and transform themselves? Try out our convenient online training.
Happy New Year! We plan to keep doing what we like doing and hope you'll do the same. And remember not to take things too seriously :)

11 Worst Things You Can Get Trick-Or-Treating
written by Sam Greenspan
It's been many, many, many, many (pause, take a breath), many, many, many years since I trick-or-treated. And yet, like so many seemingly innocent childhood events, I still bear the scars of Halloweens gone wrong.
Call this list cathartic, call it timely and informational, call it seasonal web traffic baiting, call it filler... to paraphrase Culture Beat in "Mr. Vain", call it what you like, as long as you call me. Or something.
Here are the 11 crappiest, most terrible, most disappointing and flat-out worst things you can get while you're trick-or-treating on Halloween. (Ten of the 11 come from personal experience.)
The scariest part of Halloween.
Milk Duds.
This is quite simple:
Milk Duds are universally acknowledged as the worst candy in the history of mankind.
To quote Bart Simpson, describing a girl: "She's like a Milk Dud: Sweet on the outside, poison on the inside."
Every year, my elementary school would do a day after Halloween candy drive, where you were supposed to bring in your excess candy, to be donated to less fortunate kids. Everyone would just bring in the worst of their candy, though. And by the end of November 1st, the mountains of candy in the front hallway of Belvoir Elementary School in University Heights, Ohio, looked like a Milk Dud salt mine.
This was a full two decades ago. And I'm willing to bet that nothing has changed.
Mary Jane Peanut Butter Kisses.
What are these?
They're those candies that come in plain, generic orange or black paper wrappers.
That should ring a bell.
The taste shouldn't, though... because most people have tried exactly one of these, around age six or seven... then spit it out instantly because it was bootleg nasty... and never ventured down the road again.
According to the Internet, they're molasses-flavored taffies with a "dollop of concentrated peanut butter" on the inside.
Yikes. People haven't relied on molasses for dessert since the days when you had to get all dressed up to go on an airplane.
An apple.
Twenty years ago we were already at the point where kids were taught not to ever eat anything they received on Halloween that was unwrapped.
The world has gone even further to shit since then, so I really can't imagine that today's parents are going to let you eat the apple from your candy sack.
And that's not even venturing into the debate of whether there's any place for healthy fruits on Halloween. Unless apples are being bobbed for or dipped in caramel, the answer is "no, there's no place."
Double Bubble.
Bubble gum is a placeholder on Halloween
... and Double Bubble is the foremost example of plain, boring bubble gum. It fills up your bag, but draws zero excitement, holds zero trading value, and generally just keeps sitting there and sitting there while you eat all the better candy. Eventually, circa Thanksgiving, your mom finally just makes you throw it away.
It's the equivalent of the whole grain pieces in Lucky Charms... you know it's going to be there, but you're going to do your best to eat around it to get the instant gratification of the better, sweeter stuff.
There's nothing lamer than someone (who, let's be honest, is probably your neighbor who's a widow age 74+) dropping between one and four pennies in your Halloween sack. It's almost insulting.
Even in today's economic climate.
A little box of raisins.
Raisins are a terrible giveaway.
They have all the sugar of candy... but they're not candy.
That's lose-lose.
Werther's Originals.
It's OK for old folks to give these away when you're under duress and need something sweet. Less than a year ago I was home in Cleveland and I visited my great aunts... and found myself completely satiated by an emergency butterscotch candy.
in the face of real candy, these simply can't hold up.
Who would've guessed that putting wax in your mouth would taste waxy?
Wax fangs.
I can't guarantee these still exist. There used to be these wax fangs that also doubled as chewing gum.
Two major fundamental flaws with passing these out on Halloween. One: They tasted SO waxy that no one really liked them. Two:
It's just a little bit late in the game to give out a prop for a Halloween costume
at 8 P.M. on Halloween itself.
Religious pamphlets.
Is there ANYTHING more obnoxious than using Halloween to bait-and-switch kids into reading about your anti-witchcraft views?
Today's kids are narcissistic, greedy sociopaths. You give one a religious pamphlet instead of a mini Kit Kat and they're liable to set your cat on fire.
A toothbrush.
Don't push your anti-cavity, pro-oral hygiene agenda on Halloween. Everyone gets it. There was a dentist who lived in my neighborhood who thought this was cute or something. Every year he'd give you some kind of low-sugar candy... and a toothbrush.
So naturally,
we used the toothbrushes for a makeshift baseball game
... we'd swing them at Double Bubble and peanut butter kisses, trying to swat both as far from our lives as possible.
Razor blades.
It's just so cliche.

Give your character desire up front. The motivation of the character motivates the reader. But the first revealed desire oughtn't be the important one.
Le Carré gives Smiley an obstacle—Martindale—and some problems—Ann & Lacan. Then he introduces the mystery. But by then Smiley has already been well-characterized. We're comfortable with him, so the mystery can be more interesting and spacious. [Note: It's not simply that the character's first revealed desire should be distinct from the driving motive or question behind the plot, but that the character's first navigated difficulty ought to be superseded by the main difficulty with which the novel is concerned. First, a vignette which illustrates the character; then afterwards a foray into the real problem.]
Start not so much with a motive as with an irritation.
The nice thing about irritations is that they characterize more than the average goal, and with less effort. [Note: less effort on the reader's part.] We needn't ask so much about the context of an irritant, because the context [of the irritant] is less important for understanding why it annoys [than the context of the character being annoyed, which we care more about anyway].
[Harry Potter] begins with the comic characterization of the Dursleys and then adds the tantalizing introduction of Dumbledore and Harry. Then we get the hyperbolic childhood of Harry with its own oddities, which blossoms neatly into the mystery of the Hogwarts Letters, and then into the excitement of discovering that world. [Rowling] has so many interest-engines going simultaneously that a reader will almost certainly keep going. [And these multiple "interest-engines" enable Rowling to constantly reward the curiosity of the reader with answers, but answers which change the immediate focus of the story, rather than being a simple breadcrumb trail that becomes monotonous and boring.]
Once the "discovery" theme has done its work, it lingers as a tool for exposition, and new mysteries and challenges present themselves.
Technique in Tinker Tailor — Guillam is perforing a difficult task, which is interspersed with bits of remembered monologue by Smiley instructing him about how to do it.
"Wheels within wheels."
Karla (& Voldemort)
"Decades of his life were unaccounted for, and probably never would be, since the people he worked with had a way of dying off or keeping their mouths shut."
[Note: The villain conceals his background and activities . . . But "Control" is similar.]
In his account of the interview with Karla, a good fraction of the conversation is between Smiley and himself, and not a simple dialogue, but the rehearsal of old pains and doubts. How is this conveyed to the reader?
"Few men can resist expressing their appetites when they are making a fantasy about themselves."
Know the world of the story very well before you attempt to tell a story in it. — Stories emerge out of a world, and especially a known world. The Chemist knows what to expect when two elements are combined, knowing the laws that govern their probable interactions. The better the laws of the world are known, the better a storyteller will be able to construct the winding or unravelling of a thread within that world.
"Know the facts, then try on stories like clothes."
Get to know your cast of characters before you describe their behavior.
What happens to people is often improbable and irrational, but their responses to it tend not to be.
Layers of the Planning Process:
—The context (impersonal)
—The characters (personalities, problems, background)
[Note: Something right in Heidegger's suggestion that person and world are co-dependent. In narrative, it is by relating things to characterization or intention and background that worlds are most easily characterized.]
—The plot (immediate occasion of events, pattern in which they unfold, the order in which information is disclosed to the reader)
—Characterization of events and style of exposition
Suppose you have infinite resources and can simply build something. What makes it interesting? Evidently, after a while building you would begin to repeat yourself, and this would make both the act and the object tedious. [Unless of course you find the mere [quantitative] increase repeated forms appealing, . . . but this is an enjoyment not of the object of the act, but of the indeterminate potency of the object . . . a different thing.]
So what *keeps* it interesting once one reaches this point? The introduction of a new dimension of complexity or a new form, which either subsumes the prior form (triangles -> tetrahedron) or alternates with it (a tessellation involving multiple polygons). In other words, one must either make something else or make something [new], using what you have made as the matter. In fact, the mere idea of an infinite series of repeated forms is extremely tedious.
There are no general cases, only particular cases.
Note: What I like best about the Smiley novels is Smiley. The thriller spy framework parts are enjoyable enough, but they're not where the magic is. Analogously, the coolest thing about the Miyazaki documentary was Miyazaki.
Miyazaki wonders if it is possible to make films that are important anymore. I assume by "important" he means films that make an impact, make a difference to people. Why would it be so difficult? Supersaturation, perhaps. Same problem as in publishing. If you choose a medium which speaks to everyone, you will not be compensated and will be little heard. But if you choose a small venue and limited medium you can make a greater impact. [By speaking to fewer people, you can accomplish more, and be better-compensated.]
In other words, not just the medium, but the target audience ought to be tightened, to increase impact. Tightened geographically.
How do word-images differ from pictures? Pictures are limited by the imagination of the artist more than [the imagination of] the viewer?
Listen—you could make it. You could do well. But you have to make something you want a shot at making it.
Story told as dialogue between narrator and listener. Listener interjections set as freestanding italicized paragraphs.
One of the keys to storytelling is not explaining. You have to keep facts and explanations in reserve to keep the reader interested. If you give everything up in the way that's easiest to follow, you won't be followed. One advantage of time [as an ordering principle for narratives] is that the temporal order of events is constructed by chance and accident, with constant intervening complications and distractions. You explain things as the occasion arises . . . But the occasions arising are various and have only incidental significance to anything you might want to relate. So you value the occasion and enjoy it, not just for its importance to the story, but also for its own sake.
Enjoy your memories! Let them return in full color and let them be saturated with detail.
"I want to know about you." — Collecting other people's stories.
The habit of writing with one's hand, with a pen, differs significantly enough from the habit of typing (by typewriter or by computer) . . .
The imagination of the writer is based on his experiences. If someone only has . . .

Plan II Honors Associate Director, Alexandra Wettlaufer, Awarded Guggenheim Fellowship
Wed, April 9, 2014
In its ninetieth annual competition for the United States and Canada, the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation has awarded 177 Fellowships (including one joint Fellowship) to a diverse group of 178 scholars, artists, and scientists. Appointed on the basis of prior achievement and exceptional promise, the successful candidates were chosen from a group of almost 3,000 applicants.
With the support of the Guggenheim Fellowship, she plans to complete her manuscript entitled Reading George: Sand, Eliot, and the Novel in France and Britain, 1830–1900. Perhaps the most influential women writers of the nineteenth century, George Sand and George Eliot were consistently compared to one another by critics and readers of their day, and from book reviews to obituaries the two were linked not only as popular female authors, but also as avatars of the ethics and aesthetics of their respective nations. Yet despite these long-standing connections, surprisingly little critical attention has been focused in recent years on the textual relations between this pair of pseudonymous Georges. This study seeks to examine the transnational context within which their works were first produced and consumed in order to come to a better understanding not only of Sand's and Eliot's individual bodies of work, but also of the ways in which nineteenth-century artistic identity, reading, gender, and the novel were constructed in a dialectic conversation between France and Britain."
Often characterized as "midcareer" awards, Guggenheim Fellowships are intended for men and women who have already demonstrated exceptional capacity for productive scholarship or exceptional creative ability in the arts.
Fellowships are awarded through two annual competitions: one open to citizens and permanent residents of the United States and Canada, and the other open to citizens and permanent residents of Latin America and the Caribbean. Candidates must apply to the Guggenheim Foundation in order to be considered in either of these competitions.
The Foundation receives between 3,500 and 4,000 applications each year. Although no one who applies is guaranteed success in the competition, there is no prescreening: all applications are reviewed. Approximately 200 Fellowships are awarded each year.
During the rigorous selection process, applicants will first be pooled with others working in the same field, and examined by experts in that field: the work of artists will be reviewed by artists, that of scientists by scientists, that of historians by historians, and so on. The Foundation has a network of several hundred advisers, who either meet at the Foundation offices to look at applicants' work, or receive application materials to read offsite. These advisers, all of whom are themselves former Guggenheim Fellows, then submit reports critiquing and ranking the applications in their respective fields. Their recommendations are then forwarded to and weighed by a Committee of Selection, which then determines the number of awards to be made in each area. Occasionally, no application in a given area is considered strong enough to merit a Fellowship.
The Committee of Selection then forwards its recommendations to the Board of Trustees for final approval. The successful candidates in the United States and Canada competition are announced in early April; those in the Latin America and Caribbean competition, in early June.

What does vasectomy mean?
Definitions for vasectomyvæˈsɛk tə mi, veɪˈzɛk-
Here are all the possible meanings and translations of the word vasectomy.
Princeton's WordNet
surgical procedure that removes all or part of the vas deferens (usually as a means of sterilization); is sometimes reversible
The surgical removal of all or part of the vas deferens, usually as a means of male sterilization.
Vasectomy is a surgical procedure for male sterilization and/or permanent birth control. During the procedure, the vasa deferentia of a man are severed, and then tied/sealed in a manner such to prevent sperm from entering into the seminal stream. Vasectomies are usually performed in a physician's office or medical clinic. There are several methods by which a surgeon might complete a vasectomy procedure, all of which occlude at least one side of each vas deferens. To help reduce anxiety and increase patient comfort, men who have an aversion to needles might opt for the "no-needle" application of anesthesia while the "no-scalpel" or "open-ended" techniques help to speed-up recovery times and increase the chance of healthy recovery. Due to the simplicity of the surgery, a vasectomy usually takes less than 30 minutes to complete. After a short recovery at the doctor's office, the patient is sent home to rest. Because the procedure is minimally invasive, many vasectomy patients find that they can resume their typical lifestyle routines within a week, and do so with minimal discomfort. Because the procedure is considered a permanent method of birth control, men are usually counseled/advised to consider how the long-term outcome of a vasectomy might affect them both emotionally and physically.
U.S. National Library of Medicine
Surgical removal of the ductus deferens, or a portion of it. It is done in association with prostatectomy, or to induce infertility. (Dorland, 28th ed)

Does anyone know how I could get my hands on the game Cel Damage for the gamecube? This was a little known gem of gamecube games that one of my friends once had, basically you ran around in cel shaded cars with insane weapons killing each other. It looks like it isnt manufactured anymore but I would I really really like to get my hands on a copy. This was one of those rare diamond in the rough games that was a ton of fun.

Weeks passed. Carson ran out of milk. It was two weeks. His mom sent him to get more. She gave him her debit card and twenty dollars just in case. He was off, driving to the store on the other side of town away from the ice cream parlor. Upsetting memories there. His car had gathered a dusty feel, he was using it less and less since school had ended. He should be picking a school for after his gap year. He assured his mom he was. He wasn't. * Carson's POV*
I bought my own Fats Waller CD because it was something new and not pop. "I'm going to sit right down and write myself a letter" was my new favorite. The store was crowded. It shouldn't take so long to get milk. Where was Emily? I grab 2% by accident. My mom likes whole. I miss her. Emily. Not my mom. The checkout is populated with sorry people. Sad that they're stuck in Linda. I'm not stuck here. I choose to be here. Do I have 20 items or less? Duh. I get in the shortest line behind a grandma with bright purple curlers. I could mindlessly scroll through my phone. Someone I know enters the store. My instinct is to hide. Everyone asks me what school I want to go to. I don't end know what I want to do. I want to buy milk unnoticed. This is who could never be a celebrity like Loren or Neil. Finally my turn in line. The man gives me a bag for the milk. I swipe the card. Speed walking out the door. My phone vibrates, but I can't answer it with the bag in my hands. Speed walk faster. I finally get to the car. Quickly fish out my phone, and its Emily. My breath is taken away. I don't hesitate to swipe and say, "Emily. Hey, what's up?" "Carson. I need your help." Her voice is shaky. Like my mom when she talks about the divorce. Vulnerable. "What do you need? Money?" Cringing way to say it. I try to sound lowkey. "I've been arrested. My sister can't afford bail." And she relates the address, which I hurriedly jot onto the store receipt. Its two hours north of Linda. Time for a road trip. I'm an hour there when I realize I didn't ask what she did. She never seemed like a tweaker. When I met her in the woods she was looking for an earring. She never told me where she was from. Why she was visiting. I was desperate. So desperate for attention from someone from the opposite sex, to get my mind off Jean. And Emily was funny, and pretty, and - I knew her for four days and I was bailing her out of jail. What am I doing? Whatever it was, I bet she's innocent. Her informed sister was easy to spot when I arrived. Only blond haired, blue eyed woman there. Only one not half asleep. "You're Carson." She says dismissively. She's smartly dressed in a grey pantsuit. Too much eye-shadow but she's trying not to look as tired as she feels. I guess early twenties. "Where's Emily?" I say. It's with a newfound confidence. Maybe if I sound like I know what I'm doing she'll answer my questions. "I'm Parker.Come with me." She says, grabbing my arm. I'm dragged to a desk and an overweight woman telling me how to pay bail. Paperwork happens. I have to use my mom's debit card. I'm sure she won't mind. If I don't tell her. Emily looks pale and thinner than she was. "This is the last thing you needed after the hospital." Her sister says in a compassionate way. The color has ignited so her eyes are like blue fire. Emily avoids her gaze. "I'm sorry." She says. Biting the insides of her cheeks because she won't cry in front of her sister. That's like saying, you're right. I'm wrong. It's never fun to be wrong. "Let's go talk outside, Emily." Parker drags her arm like she did mine. I sit in a waiting chair so they can have some privacy. I shut off my phone so when my mom inevitably rang I wouldn't answer. I did text her before I shut it off, 'Going to see Emily.' Emily and Parker return to the waiting room after fifteen minutes of me tapping my fingers on the metal chair edge. Emily stares at me like I'm going to reprimand her. "Parker and I talked." She states. She's wearing a dirty white shirt, black jeans. Contrasted with her sister's sharp attire. "Emily wants to know if she can stay with you. Her court date is in Linda." Parker aggressively but calmly relates. "Yes." I speak before I think. "OK." Says Parker. Then we all walk out to my car. Parker surveys it unsatisfied, like it's pond scum. "How old are you?" She asks. "I'm eighteen." I respond. Her countenance is unchanged. I unlock the car and slide into the driver's seat. "I'll see you next month." She says to Emily. Her face is contorted in a grimace. Emily gets in the passenger seat and slams the door. Politely. Everything she does is polite. "Why were you in jail?" I ask. Parker is clicking her heels to her own car. I watch her shrink in the side mirror. "I attacked him." She uneasily spits out. "Who?" I ask, rhetorically because I have at last put the pieces together. "Loren." I say under my breath. "The court date is next month in Linda." She adds. "Why?" I ask. I'm feeling sick to my stomach. "I'll tell you when we get there. Its a long story." She plugs her nose. "Your car stinks." This is the source of my nausea, more then the bad news. The milk in the back is spoiled. I chuck it into a trash can inside the jail. The car is stalled when I get back. Fats Waller drifts in my ears. Emily is leaning on the side window, tapping the keys on the window. She swept her hair ino a bun, making her neck look longer. Elegant. We don't talk on the way to my home.

If you liked Girl, Interrupted, I'd recommend Asking For It by Louise O'Neill and Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson.
Good review/"discussion"! The book seems really interesting, I've heard of it before but didn't realise that it is a memoir. I tempted to read the book but I'm a little apprehensive as you've only given it 3.5 out of 5. Do you reckon it is worth the read?
Totally worth the read! I only marked it down by 1.5 stars because of it's lack of detail at certain parts. Overall it was really interesting! XDelete
This definitely sounds interesting! I haven't even seen the movie before.
Renee | Lose The Road
I really recommend the movie if you're interested by the book! It's a very detailed adaption xDelete
I read the book a couple of years ago and it's really stayed with me. I think it's quite important that books about mental health issues are now coming out more and more frequently as these issues are often pushed under the carpet a bit
Steph - http://nourishmeclean.blogspot.com
Totally. I did a blog post a little while ago about 'Fictional Books About Mental Health' and I was surprised at how many I own! I think I naturally gravitate towards them because of my own mental health issues xDelete
This book sounds really interesting, I haven't heard of it before but I am always intrigued my memoirs. Will have to look out for it! x

If you like memoirs then I think you'll like this! xDelete

Dull and lifeless skin is quite a common problem that many people face nowadays. Having beautiful glowing skin is somewhat of a luxury in today's world. The main reason for this has got to be the high levels of pollution outside as well as the harsh effect of all the cosmetics which we use. Add to this our poor lifestyle choices and you will certainly need home remedies for dull skin to help you out. Inadequate exercise, unhealthy diet and bad skin care are not going to help you get rid of your skin problems like herbal remedies to get rid of dull skin can.
The first thing which you will need to do is to get rid of this uppermost layer of dead skin. This is the only way in which you will be able to expose the fresh skin underneath. You should always use home remedies for dull skin here instead of using hot water or any harsh chemicals as they do much more harm than good. Given below are few techniques which can help you not only get rid of the dullness but can also make you look younger:
Home Remedies for Dull Skin
Spearmint leaves are great as far as home remedies for dull skin are concerned. They are very hydrating and have amazing rejuvenation and cleansing power. All you have to do is to make a paste and apply it along with some water daily. This will help get rid of all the dead cells on your skin.
Papaya and gram flour are another great combination as far as home remedies for dull skin are concerned. You can make a paste of this and add some honey if you want really great results before applying it on your skin. The honey will help moisturize your skin while everything else will help cleanse it. Olive oil along with apricot can be considered instead of this as well.
Staying away from nicotine is another great natural remedy for dull skin. This obstructs blood flow to your skin and even causes early aging. Combine this with regular exercise so that your blood gets fresh oxygen to circulate throughout your body and make your skin brighter.
Leaving your skin dehydrated is another problem that can cause a lot of trouble. That's why you need to drink a lot of water. This is yet another of the wonderful home remedies for dull skin which you could try. Just remember to have at least 8 to 10 glasses of water every day.
Stress is another factor which can cause your skin to become bad. So you could say that eliminating stress is also one of the powerful home remedies for dull skin.
Ever heard of Cynergy TK? This is a natural substance which is used in a lot of rejuvenating creams. It can help stimulate the growth of new cells and is the best herbal remedies for dull skin. This is a great measure to start getting rid of your old, dead skin cells and replacing them with fresh ones.
Manuka honey is another natural way for you to get rid of your skin dullness. This honey comes from New Zealand and is terrific as far as dull skin is concerned. Unlike the various other types of honey available in the market, this type of honey has some really powerful enzymes that can rejuvenate your skin and bring a radiant natural glow. It also has some excellent anti-bacterial properties. This can go a long way in protecting your skin from bacteria which is responsible for a dull skin tone.
Avocado oil is another trusted favorite among herbal remedies for skin dullness is concerned. It has all the essential vitamins like vitamin A, E and D. All these vitamins can help in making skin glowing naturally. Hence, one must consume avocadoes regularly or apply a mashed avocado paste on skin by keeping it for 15 minutes twice a week.
So you see commercial creams aren't your only option to get glowing, radiating and beautiful skin. All you need to do is to try any of these natural home remedies for dull skin and you will certainly get results that are at par, if not better, than what you would get from commercial skin care products. These home remedies don't have any harmful side effects for you to worry about either. And do you know the best part about them? You will not have to pay through your nose for them. What more could you want?
Just choose any of these natural home remedies for dull skin mentioned above or a combination of them and get started on the road to a young, beautiful skin. Just remember to stick to these herbal remedies for glowing skin for at least 3 or 4 weeks before expecting to see any results. They may just appear in a week or two, but if you want permanent results then it is recommended that you stick to the routine for at least a month.


text: I am trying to restore an old aquatic pond to hold water. The pond is made from concrete and I purchased a Aquascapes kit for it a year ago. I cannot get it to seal around the rocks and the concrete to hold water. I recently took it apart again and put DamTite on the entire surface. I believe this will work and I am thinking I don't need the liner anymore. It looks good and I think it will hold water, I am going to fill it befroe reinstalling the waterfall and such. The only thing is the DamTite is white. Does anyone know if any water plants would grow in a pond that is white? I was planning on putting some decorative stone on the bottom. It is approximately 12" deep and 16x16. I hate this thing and have spent too much "free" time on it. It is for a real good customer. The only thing good that has come from it is that now they know I will not give up on something I start.

That's not to say they're all doing it for noble reasons. While Ben & Jerry's actively supports GMO labeling, many saw General Mills' removal of GMO from Cheerios earlier this year as little more than a marketing ploy. But the fact that a company that previously spent $1.1 million on fighting a GMO labeling law in California would even pander to consumers in this way is an acknowledgment of how strong anti-GMO public sentiment is. And if moving away from GMO ingredients means better sales, more brands will do it—whether there's a labeling law or not.
Here's a look at some of the companies that are taking steps towards being GMO free.
The Vermont-based ice cream company was aiming to be completely GMO-free by the end of 2013, but is still completing the transition, and you can follow its progress on a dedicated blog. It's also taking the opportunity to switch to all Fairtrade certified ingredients.
Original Cheerios became GMO-free in January this year but sales did not increase significantly, reports Forbes. The company has no plans to apply the change to other Cheerios varieties or any of its other products.
Last June the chain began to label GMO ingredients on its website, and a year later is almost completely GMO free. According to Food Business News, its corn and flour tortillas are the last offending items on the menu, and the company is aiming to complete its transition by the end of 2014.
The supermarket announced in March last year that it would aim to have complete GMO labeling in all stores by 2018. It also stocks many GMO-free products—more than 6,000 according to its website—which includes any plant-derived ingredients used in its 365 brand.
This one is a little controversial: Trader Joe's says that its homebrand products are sourced from non-GMO ingredients, but does not label them due to a lack of guidelines from government agencies. And since products are not checked by a third-party, it comes down to how much you trust Trader Joe's own verification process.
In lieu of FDA regulation, the Non GMO Project is the current industry standard for GMO-free certification. It has a searchable database of verified products, including select items from brands like Kikkoman, Bob's Red Mill, Kettle, Pirate's Booty, Weetabix, Silk, Kashi, and others. It's also worth noting that 100% organic products are by definition non GMO. This is in contrast to USDA organic and certified organic items which are usually GMO free since they're at least 95% organic. However the remaining 5% could possibly include GMO ingredients.

Speaking at JSConf EU 2014
In September 2014 I have the privilege to speak at JSConfEU 2014. Here's the video:
In September 2014 I have the privilege to speak at JSConfEU 2014. Here's the video:
After reading Eric Martindale's very useful blog post on "Mitigating TLS BEAST attack in node.js" I decided to implement this for pinitto.me in order to increase security of the site.
After implementing the suggested code I then attempted to test the SSL setup via SSLLabs. Sadly the report came back showing that pinitto.me was still vulnerable to BEAST attacks.
A BEAST (or Browser Exploit Against SSL/TSL) attack is an attack where a third party can silently decrypt communications between a browser and a server. This is performed by attacking a weakness in CBC (cipher block chaining) discovered back in 2006 but with a practical exploit not found until late 2011.
BEAST attacks are not possible on TLS versions greater than 1.0 but as this version is currently the most predominant on the internet such attacks are possible on most unprotected servers.
The documentation on SSLLabs.com suggested a different set of ciphers to those suggested by Eric and so after implementing these pinitto.me is now reported to not be vunerable to these attacks, yey!
The code for setting up a HTTPS server on node.js therefore becomes:
var https = require('https') , fs = require('fs') var options = { key: fs.readFileSync(config.ssl.key, 'utf8'), cert: fs.readFileSync(config.ssl.cert, 'utf8'), ca: fs.readFileSync(config.ssl.ca, 'utf8'), ciphers: 'ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:AES128-GCM-SHA256:RC4:HIGH:!MD5:!aNULL:!EDH', honorCipherOrder: true } https.createServer(options, function (req, res) { res.writeHead(200) res.end("Hello World!") }).listen(443)

Bugatti Galibier Information
Bugatti should have known better than to let loose a supercar sedan concept without a concrete plan as to its production. Ever since the Bugatti Galibier Concept was unveiled in 2010, auto journalists the world over have been speculating on the vehicle's production form and quite possibly rushing the French car manufacturer into releasing details a little ahead than necessary. Then again, who are we kidding? The more publicity, the better, right? So let's give them some more.
Coming out of a rumor that the Galibier is dealing with a little setback in its release date of Fall 2012 because of the vehicle not being "outrageous enough," Bugatti CEO, Wolfgang Durheimer, has now confirmed that the production Galibier is "in its second half of the design phase," but will be significantly altered from the concept car originally displayed.
|Bugatti Galibier Front View
The decision to change up the car's design comes from customer clinic held by the company and approved by Durheimer. "Half of Veyron owners have been in the car already," he said. "You will still recognize the design from the concept, but now this is a design I can be 100% behind." The new design will combine elements from the Veyron and the classic Atlantic coupe.
|Bugatti Galibier Back View
The production Bugatti Galibier - name still not confirmed - will be unveiled by 2013 and will be priced at 1.5 million Euros, or about $2.3 million at the current rates.
|Bugatti Galibier Interior
When the Galibier was first shown as a concept to potential owners in fall 2009, many of them requested changes to the interior to make something more distinctive and luxurious. A year later, Wolfgang Duerheimer took over from Franz-Josef Paefgen as Bugatti president (and Bentley CEO), and insisted on major body and engineering changes. Duerheimer has since departed to run Audi's R&D, leaving Bugatti and Bentley with yet another new boss, Wolfgang Schreiber. He was brought in when transmission issues delayed the Veyron's launch. Soon after, he was given responsibility for finishing development of the whole car. He was then moved to run VW's van division. Insiders predict he might call for further changes to the Galibier. As a result, the production car that finally emerges could be very different from the original concept.

Year of the (Metal) Golden Tiger - 2010
Apparently, this is my year... according to the Chinese zodiac calendar that is. The Chinese New Year falls on Valentine's Day this year (February 14th), and 2010 is apparently the year of the Metal or Golden Tiger. Born in the year 1986--the year of the Fire Tiger--I should be in for some luck this 2010.
Though I am not really a believer in such superstition, it's quite interesting to note just how accurate the description of the "Tiger" is to my actual character. Check it out...
Courageous, active, and self-assured. Optimistic, passionate and independent. Rebellious, dynamic, and unpredictable. Quick tempered but considerate. Affectionate but careless. The Tiger is a natural born leader and symbolizes power, passion and daring.
Specifically for the Fire Tiger: Eccentric and dramatic, Fire Tigers are aglow with passion and verve. They are outgoing, expressive and look on the bright side of things. They have the Tiger's natural ability to lead others and are able to excite others simply with their own gift of enthusiasm. They can be funny and have great senses of humor. Tigers are powerful speakers and have the ability to command and persuade crowds through speech. Their own seemingly endless supply of energy can make them appear a bit dramatic, and it may make them more sensitive to cautious or down-to-earth approaches in others.
People born in the Year of the Tiger are generally well liked because of their charming personalities. Often, failing at a given task or being unproductive in his personal or professional life can cause a Tiger to experience a deep depression. Criticism from loved ones can also generate this type of Tiger reaction.
Tigers are fond of competitions. They simply cannot pass up a challenge. They may appear cool and are unpredictable, and it would be unwise to underestimate their reactions. Natural leaders, they have a strong sense of their own dignity. They are intelligent, alert, and farsighted. Good strategists and tacticians, they often have a hidden agenda. As long as they do not risk their luck too often, and keep their restless nature under control, they will enjoy success and happiness.
People born in the Year of the Tiger are straightforward and uninhibited in nature. They will never give up no matter how frustrated they may become. But, they are also full of suspicion and sometimes will take hasty action.
They must be aware of how they react to and are affected by the consequences of their tempers. They should take it a little easier and learn to pace themselves to keep active longer and to prevent early burnout. They are blessed with flexibility and often recover quickly from illness or pain.
Some people born in the Year of the Tiger are gentle and full of sympathy. They are kind, love babies and anything that arouses their imagination. Others can be stubborn and selfish. Generally speaking, people born in the Year of the Tiger are fond of playing, and full of enthusiasm and sentiment. Some are mercurial. They can laugh happily one moment, and cry the next. They will be optimistic, but at the next they will lose their heart totally.
People born in the Year of the Tiger take pride in being different than others, and generally illustrate their originality best in their homes. Their homes are usually filled with exotic treasures. They are fast learners, need challenge and often work alone. Some tend to change careers more often because they get bored easily. They are natural born leaders and perform best if working towards positions of power and influence. They like to spend money, and also to share it. They can be quite impulsive spenders because they know they can always make more.
It is interesting that their two main features are rashness and hesitation, a pair of contradictions. If they know how to relax and do things according to the situation, they can become quite successful.
On another note, I and many others (including the rooster below), are quite glad 2009 has come to an end. Have a Happy Chinese New Year!

Plane Embarrassing
Phoenix's daily papers printed big color photos of America West Airlines' new Boeing 757 last week. The garish jet has "Arizona" emblazoned on its side, along with a painting of an unfurled state flag. According to the glowing press reports, the plane is meant as a "thank you" to Arizona for its support during the airline's three-year bankruptcy. The papers reported the jet was to begin flying May 1.
In fact, the craft's maiden flight got pushed up to April 21, and the debut was, to put it mildly, inauspicious. The jet's departure for Kennedy Airport in New York was delayed more than an hour. Not long after it embarked, the jet was forced to return to Sky Harbor International Airport.
"A flight attendant got on the PA system and said, 'Some of you people sitting on the left side of the plane may have noticed that shortly after takeoff, a piece of the plane flew off,'" one passenger tells The Flash.
The passengers were kept on the airliner while maintenance crews attempted to fix the problem. The riders were let off the plane about 12:30 p.m. "We got back on the same aircraft at 4:30 and thought we were headed on our way, but, no, there was a new series of mechanical problems," the passenger says. At that point, he and a couple of dozen others gave up.
"The airline seemed to be very concerned about getting the plane painted on the outside for a nice, pretty picture, but it's most important that the aircraft be thoroughly checked out before it's placed on the runway," the passenger says. "It obviously hadn't been debugged. It's sort of pathetic to have that many things go wrong."
America West spokesman Mike Mitchell says the missing part was an engine panel. He says although the jet missed the New York flight, it was flown to Chicago later that night.
New Digs for Bigwigs
The Arizona legislature could only commit $250,000 toward preventing teen pregnancy--the state's rate leads the nation--but there was enough money in the pot to remodel Governor Fife Symington's quarters, located on the eighth and ninth floors of the executive tower at 1700 West Washington.

The 1995-96 budget contains $1.7 million for "improvements in the executive tower," and a request for proposals has gone out for an architect. The RFP describes the project as having a budget of $1.2 million. There's no word on the $500,000 discrepancy between the appropriation and the advertised budget. Rumor has it that preliminary plans for the remodel include a spiral staircase.
Wet and Sticky
If paradise is the land of milk and honey, Paradise Valley must be the land of bottled water and honey.
Reports filter in about strange goings-on at two houses near Lincoln Drive and Tatum Boulevard, where the queen of Saudi Arabia continues her recovery from spinal surgery, performed in November at St. Joseph's Hospital. The royal entourage, which is renting the homes for a reported $20,000 per month each, has apparently filled a garage--floor to ceiling--with five-gallon cans of honey. The garage at the other house is equally full of Evian bottled water.

Bible vs. Quran (Kyrgyz)

he attack and subsequent destruction of the World Trade Towers in New York City on September 11, 2001, motivated me to pose this question. Does the Qur'an mention a Holy War against those who do not believe in Allah as God and in Mohammed as God's Prophet? In studying the Qur'an, I discovered many biblical events and characters that seem to run parallel. Or do they? Intrigued, I decided to bring all references together into one file and compare them to each other. The result is this work, which I want to present to the reader for his/her scrutiny.
done. What most religions don't tell you about the Bible… (Kyrgyz)
