I discovered a passion for photography a few years ago when my husband and I went on a safari and I discovered the magic of capturing images of the amazing animals through a telephoto lens. Since then, I have been fascinated with the concept of looking at the world in a different way through the lens of a camera. You often see things differently when you are hyper-focused on details you might not otherwise notice in everyday life. Through the lens, I see joy and feel a sense of zen. Thus, the title of my website "Zen Through The Lens." After almost three decades as an attorney in a high-powered, high stress litigation practice, I find great joy and relaxation in the practice of photography.

Tyler (KYTX) -- Stores are packed with last-minute shoppers needing to get groceries for Thursday. If you have several mouths to feed, it's easy for spending to get out of hand on Thanksgiving.
Shoppers like Tracy Jackson, in charge of the family Thanksgiving meal, and that includes all the fixin's.
"I've bought dressing, cranberry, salad, broccoli, and rice," Jackson said.
She's cooking for 26 people this year and has managed to keep her bill under $200 through coupons and recent specials.
"If you take 15 minutes, sit down and look. I saved about 15 dollars in coupons last week," Jackson said.
That's a good thing because according to the American Farm Bureau Federation, the average cost of a Thanksgiving meal for ten people is up this year by 28 cents. Store managers at Brookshire's stores, recommend buying generic if you need to shave costs.
"I think our store brands are equivalent to a lot of the national brands, at a much cheaper more competitive price," Allan Bussey, Store Director, said.
It's what Nicki Wynne does."Everything I bought is the store brand. It saves you money," Wynne said. She recommends making a dish with inexpensive ingredients, like green bean casseroles.
Consumer experts also recommend sharing the load, and doing a potluck dinner, so the burden doesn't fall on one person.

Living in a home with a crawl space can be an adventure some times. And those of us that do have a crawl space know all too well the costly problems that a crawl space can bring. One of the worst of all crawl space problems is mold growth. Crawl spaces can be a breeding ground for mold. The main reason for this is because of the fact that many crawl spaces are prone to moisture and water. Reducing or eliminating…Continue

A homes crawl space is one of the few places most homeowners try to avoid at all cost, and for good reason. They are dark, nasty, wet, smelly places for the most part. Because of this, most homeowners take an "out of sight out of mind" approach to their homes crawl space. But homeowners who have issues such as standing water, mold, foundation problems, and structural wood damage do not have the luxury of ignoring their crawl space. Ignoring crawl space issues such as those mentioned can lead…Continue

Maintaining a dry crawl space is one of the most important steps a homeowner can take to help prevent costly repairs down the road. A wet crawl space can lead to mold growth, structural wood rot, musty smells, and even foundation failure. These types of problems can also be caused by excessive moisture in a crawl space. Standing water or even excessive moisture in a crawl space can be caused by a few different reasons. During heavy rains water can seep up into the crawl space from the dirt…Continue

With winter right around the corner, many of us start looking at various ways to reduce heat loss and improve energy savings. One of the most common practices of improving energy savings is by installing or improving our homes insulation. This is especially true for those of us who have the luxury of living above a crawl space. Installing or improving crawl space insulation can be very beneficial. But it can also have expensive, negative effects if not done correctly. Here is a list of a few…Continue

The implications are manifold.
Most obvious is the mantra, "Demographics are destiny."
Were America racially homogeneously white, Hillary wouldn't stand a chance in a general election. In fact, the Democrats would have lost every election since 1976. That was the last year Democrats won the white vote.
Second, it underscores the obsession of race among the predatory left.
While vociferously condemning racism, the left can't -- or won't -- shut up about it. The left has a propensity to interpret everything in racial terms. (See Kenn's Law #1). The left demands we have a national conversation about race, then bemoans any opinion that contradicts the cultural Marxism narrative. Race is the lever the left uses to manipulate the minds of Americans; all the while they insist that race is a mere social construct.
Third, it echoes the cultural Marxism penchant for dividing unto two groups: The oppressed 'people of color' proletariat and the oppressing white bourgeois.
Fourth, it reminds us that we are not the same.
Is diversity our strength?
The answer is relative.
If one is seeking the muscle to undermine Western culture, then diversity is powerful. If one is seeking to preserve Western culture, then diversity is destructive.
Fifth, it gives the media an excuse to spin Hillary's tumbling poll numbers.
Only 37 percent of white women support Hillary. That must frustrate the predatory left that has invested decades in an effort to convince us that 'women' is synonymous with 'neo-feminism.' Note the left says 'women's issues' as a replacement term of 'neo-feminist agenda.'
Hillary scores a 74 percent favorable rating among the oppressed proletariat; and that only includes females. Only the media could pretend such sour numbers are a positive.

We have wanted to stay at the Hard Rock but due to the usual high prices and lack of flight packages from Florida, we have not been able to do so until this year. My husband & I take a trip each summer to Biloxi (this is the 6th trip over 7 years.....skipping the year following Katrina). This was our best trip! We decided to drive this year and it was actually a lot better than flying. We drove from Orlando-area to Mobile, AL, on a Saturday so we would arrive early morning on Sunday in Biloxi, getting the most out of "Day 1" of our stay!
We were in Gatlinburg in the Hard Rock Cafe in mid-July. We purchased an "All Access" pass which offers many discounts (cost is $25 but we were given a $20 credit on the card, and emailed a $5 coupon in addition to receiving a free bag and collectible pin). I called to inquire about the hotel discounts and we were given a 20% discount on the rooms for the following week!! We cancelled our reservations at the IP b/c the Hard Rock beat the price by about $7 (not a big deal) BUT we had wanted to stay at the Hard Rock and now we could afford it!!
The Hard Rock is wonderful because.........
>>The way the casino is designed & how the ventilation system is, there is little smoke smell in the casino. We didn't get hit with a curtain of smoke when we entered the casino. Unless we were sitting next to a smoker, our eyes and lungs were not affected by others smoking.
>>The pool area had three hot tubs (one could hold a few dozen people) and a large pool area with swimup bar. There was one deeper area, but most of the pool depth was family friendly with a beach-like access as well as many stair entries. The clientel of the pool was mostly families. When we stayed at the IP, the pool seemed to be very full of unattended children who seemed to be family members of employees. Pool hours are 8am to 10pm, with music playing (you can hear it in your room on that side of the building) from mid-day until 10pm or a bit later. If you have kids or grownups that nap, be sure to ask for a room on the OTHER side of the building (the even number rooms). The front desk will say pool is from 10-10 but it was open at 8. Thick Hard-Rock-Purple towels are available down at the pool.
>>The rooms are fabulous! We had room 903. Perfect view of the pool, Gulf, Beau, and city. Bathrobe in the room. Safe. Wet Bar (did not use). Large flat-screen tv. Floor to ceiling window. Closet with doors. Large shower. Drawer liner in the drawers. Bathroom drawer. Two sinks. Three shower heads in shower. Front desk uses guests' names when answering the phone. The bed is wonderful!!!! Levels of bedding: great mattress, THICK down comforter, mattress pad cover, fitted sheet, flat sheet, thin quality blanket, another flat sheet, thinner down comforter.
>>Great service! I called for extra towels at 11pm and within three minutes I was presented with a stack of various towels. The Bell Hop almost beat us to the room with our luggage! Our car was ready for us each time within three or four minutes of us calling or scanning for our car. Our room was made up promptly and correctly each day, with the maid asking us (in passing in the hall) if we needed anything else. We asked about a frig for juice and water---a complimentary frig was brought up within five minutes.
>>Coke establishment in the 24/7 Grill, Pool Bar, and Buffet. Also self-service Coke machines in casino. However, Pepsi products were sold/offered at the Hard Rock Cafe and Hard Rock store. Juice/Milk is for sale at the Starbuck's in lobby.
Be sure to try out the bathrooms at the back of the casino!!
In addition to the Hard Rock Cafe (which offers smoking areas), you can eat at the 24/7 Grill or buffet (both all non-smoking). The entries at the 24/7 Grill are large enough to share and very reasonably priced. The buffet is pretty nice and includes many items.
Here's some info on other casinos in the area:
Island View Casino (Gulfport). Pre-Katrina was The Grand. The Island View now has a hotel and casino but no pool, and certainly not the marvelous lazy river The Grand used to have. The dessert area of this buffet was the best of any of the other casinos we visited in Biloxi this time. We had received some special new club card member offers, which gave us each $50 in free gaming, a free hat, and a BOGOF buffet coupon. Coke establishment.
The IP (Biloxi). Previously was The Imperial Palace. We stayed there in 2008 and 2007. The rooms are three star (in my opinion) despite the hotel being a four star. It is pretty smoky in the casino, even in the morning when we went there July 2009, as well as the previous two years when we stayed there. They have a very small, but unmarked, non-smoking slot area. Their buffets are the most expensive. Pepsi establishment. Extremely small game room for teens.
The Boomtown (Biloxi). No hotel. This Wild West themed casino is very nice inside. It looks small when you walk in but you originally will just see one area. The buffet area was Wild West town themed---very cute! They have hand-dipped per-request Blue Bunny ice cream (sundaes, shakes, cones, etc) and wonderful steaks on the reasonably priced buffet. Coke establishment (with self-serve soft drink machine located only inside front door.)
The Palace (Biloxi). Hotel but NO gift shop or place to buy "necessities." They offer $10 to be put on your player's card if you buy lunch ($10.99) or dinner. We did that three days. They have a very small buffet in a bland environment, but it is a good deal. They offer $3 table games during the week in the day time.. The smoke smell is not too bad at the Palace. Coke establishment. We gambled there a few hours each day of our five day stay. They do have a walk up counter to buy premade sandwiches and salads.
The Grand (Biloxi). We did not go there this year. Post-Katrina, their gaming area was small and cramped feeling when we tried it in 2008.
The Isle (Biloxi). Previously The Isle of Capri. We did go there once. The gaming areas are spread out so it would be possible to find an area that is not too smoky. Their buffet is the least expensive of any in Biloxi, but also it is terribly small (you can view it from the hallway). Coke establishment with self-serve machines throughout casino.
The Beau Rivage (Biloxi). Beautiful hotel. Many small shops in the promenade area. Very smoky inside. Their casino feels very small and tight. Even the short time we were in the casino this year, we felt very smoked out. Modest size game room for children.
We thought the Hard Rock was the best hotel of The Grand (now the Island View), The Beau Rivage, and the IP.

how could i resist?
Photos don't do these lovely, framed needlepoints justice...
I found them during the last hours of a church rummage sale
in a nearby town.
They're all signed and dated (1957 & 1960).
It was stuff a bag full and pay $3!
How could I resist?

rummage sales
let the soups begin
After a quick inventory of my refrigerator doors and drawers,
it was obvious to me that it was Soup Time!
I boiled a few potatoes from the bottom of the bag, sliced some zucchini,
and diced some onions. Covered them with water and boiled awhile.
I beat them with my hand beater right in the water.
Added some left over fresh corn, some tomatoes just little past slicing prime,
a handful of shredded cheddar cheese and a few pieces of bacon I'd browned in the microwave.
I had a partial can of evaporated milk so I added that to the mixture along with
a bit of salt and pepper.
The flavors will blend as it warms on the stovetop this morning.
Then I think I'll serve it in one of these tureens from my collection--thrifted, of course.
(Or maybe we'll just dish it up straight out of the saucepan.....)

parting is such sweet sorrow
Yes, it really is (such sweet sorrow),
but I really MUST.
The time is w-a-y past due.
I need to begin somewhere.
I hope to find a buyer who will get as much enjoyment from them as I have...
After my husband removed a rope inset in this wood frame,
he sanded it and I gave it a coat of white paint.
Frames "make" a picture, I think.
So when I found this one at a garage sale on the way to a thrift store this past weekend,
I snatched it up!
With or without a picture, it will find a place SOMEwhere.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas' wife Virginia Thomas is starting a nonprofit lobbying group to promote activism and conservative principles, the Los Angeles Times reported, setting off a debate about whether it is fair to question Virginia Thomas' influence on her husband's court decisions.
The group Liberty Central Inc. will fully launch in May, Virginia Thomas (who goes by Ginni) told the Times. It will issue score cards for members of Congress and be involved in the November midterm elections. The group will also accept donations from various sources, including corporations.
Virginia Thomas' work does not violate any ethical rules, but New York University law professor Stephen Gillers, an expert on legal ethics, told the Times that Clarence Thomas should be wary of any conflicts of interest that may arise.
"There is opportunity for mischief if a company with a case before the court, or which it wants the court to accept, makes a substantial contribution to Liberty Central in the interim," he said.
The new nonprofit can raise unlimited amounts in corporate donations and can largely avoid publicly disclosing its donors, the Times reported. Additionally, it can also freely spend corporate money to campaign for or against a candidate for office because of the Citizens United Supreme Court case in which Clarence Thomas ruled with the 5-4 majority.
Some conservative bloggers said linking Virginia Thomas' activism to Clarence Thomas' court rulings held a double standards against both women in politics as well as conservatives.
"According to a piece in the Los Angeles Times today, being married to Clarence Thomas should really prohibit a woman from being involved in politics," writes Kathryn Jean Lopez of the National Review. "They even include a shocking photo of Clarence and Ginni in public together at a conservative event. 'How can this happen in America?!,' it seems to ask."
Thomas herself asked the Times' reporter whether Democratic Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell and his wife Marjorie Rendell, a judge on the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, come under the same scrutiny.
The newspaper points out that Marjorie Rendell has stayed away from political events, campaign rallies and debates in Pennsylvania.
Ed Morrissey at the conservative blog Hot Air also defends Virginia Thomas' activities, comparing questions of the unfair conflict of interest her role may pose to the criticism aimed at former First Lady Hillary Clinton in the 1990's.
"Counter-critics called it a form of gender discrimination, and Hillary famously responded to it by defiantly noting that 'I suppose I could have stayed home and baked cookies and had teas,' but decided to have her own career in law and politics," Morrissey notes.
Thomas' new endeavor is no different, he says.
"Liberty Central aims to give grassroots activists a broader understanding of the philosophy of conservatism rather than doing a lot of organizing themselves," writes Morrissey. "I'm not sure why that gives [L.A. Times reporter Kathleen] Hennessey such heartburn, but it hardly sets up any conflict of interest for Thomas ... unless Hennessey and the LAT want to argue that wives should do nothing but bake cookies and hold teas."
Michael Kieschnick, president and co-founder of wireless company CREDO Mobile, argues at Huffington Post that there is indeed a potential conflict of interest. CREDO donates a portion of its revenues to progressive groups.
"Justice Thomas has been a reliable right wing, pro-corporate vote since his first day on the court. He can hardly be described as a swing vote whose vote could be bought," Kieschnick writes. "But perhaps he could be rewarded for services rendered. Or, if service on the bench becomes tedious, he might be persuaded to extend his tenure if important cases are looming on the horizon."
Kieschnick offers a solution for the potential problem: "Liberty Central could simply voluntarily disclose all of its significant contributors in a manner much like, say, the Clinton Foundation. And Judge Thomas could simply recuse himself from any case involving a significant donor to his wife's (and thus his own) financial well being."

Snodgrass, who lives up the creek a short distance from Sophia, gives a very unusual account of his cabbage not gathered from the garden last fall.Especially is it unusual for West Virginia cabbage.At the time he gathered his main crop and stored it last fall, some heads had not matured, but consisted of loose leaves.These Mr. Snodgrass left standing in the ground, not expecting anything from them, but during the winter these loose heads have been taking on new growth and the heads becoming firmer, as a result of new growth, and Mr. and Mrs. Snodgrass have gathered several heads that had developed in this way until they were well fitted for table use.

The record of the last three weeks, as reported by C. E. Snodgrass, enforcement officer for the agricultural department shows:
Arrests, 60; convictions, 60; aggregate fines, $600.
So far, said Snodgrass, there have been no appeals from the $10 first offense penalties.
Most of the violations have been by wholesalers, and Snodgrass estimated fully half of those haled into court have been out-of-state offenders.
Almost without exception, "fresh" labels on cold storage eggs have been the dealer's undoing.
Often the department's tip-off comes from the housewife herself, incensed at paying about 15 cents premium for "country eggs" and later discovering the deception.
"Ever since the egg law was passed more than two years ago we have been conducting an educational program," Snodgrass explained."Now we are cracking down."

10 Dec 1945 -- Jap War Crime Trial Hears Of Fatal Beatings In 1943 -- Yokohama--Japanese guards invaded the sanctuary of a prison camp hospital to administer a fatal beating to an American prisoner of war, a U.S. military commission trying the first war criminal case in Japan--that of guard Tatsuo Tsuchiya--was told today.
Pfc. Robert Gordon Teas of Streator, Ill., had been accused by his captors of taking American Red Cross supplies which the Japanese had hidden in the Mitsushima camp, said a deposition from Pfc. Charles B .Gabord of Deming, N. Mex.
Gabord's testimony was read at trial of Tsuchiya, charged with implication in the murder of Teas, who was captured on Bataan April 10, 1942.
"Sergeant Mushmouth (another of the more than 300 Japanese underlings who will stand trial) and Little Glass Eye (as Tsuchiya was known) took Teas into the open yard, threw water on him, and beat him with hardwood canes shaped like swords," Gabord testified.
"Then they put him in the guardhouse.But each day they took him out and beat him some more.The day before he died, they put him in the hospital, and I personally saw these same Japs beat him just before he died."
Gabord fixed the date of the incident as in March, 1943, one of the coldest months in Japan.
A deposition by First Sgt. Clifton Otto Snodgrass of Junction City, Kas., said one beating given Teas by Tsuchiya and another guard, whom the prisoners called "Rivet Tooth," lasted 45 minutes.
"They took a rope about an inch thick, which they doubled several times, and beat Teas around the face and head--and each time he fell down, they made him get up again," Snodgrass testified."When Teas was too weak to stand up, they picked him up and continued the beating for 30 minutes."
Lt. Col. John Dickinson of St. Petersburg, Fla., defense counsel, earlier had protested against the admission of the depositions, but he was overruled by the commission.
"An enemy belligerent," said the commission, "is without the protection of constitutional guarantees [i.e. the right to face one's accusers] and the articles of war do not apply to a commission such as this."
The trial dragged along in its second day because of the necessity of translating each sentence of testimony for Tsuchiya, who sat blank-faced through the proceedings.
14 Jul 1946:Lt. Currie, A 'Soldier's Officer,' Leaves Germany Today For Home --
Mullens--First Lt. Robert A. Currie, son of the Rev. Grover C. Currie, of Highland Avenue, will leave Heidelberg, Germany, today enroute home after nearly two years of service on European battlefronts.
In a telephone conversation with his father Thursday, Lt. Currie made known his plans to be home within the next few days.The two men enjoyed extremely clear reception in a telephone call that lasted approximately 10 minutes, the father revealed.
A member of the famed fighting 69th Division, Lt. Currie has been described by a soldier in his command as a "soldier's officer."Awarded the Silver Star for gallantry in action against the Germans, he proved to be a one-man army in a raid against German lines.
In a one-man raid he tossed a grenade into a German military vehicle killing three German officer, shot and killed a German sentry that gave away his presence by coughing, and then went on to shoot and wound two more German officers.
Lt. Currie at the time was leading a patrol around the left flank of the enemy who was holding up a column of tanks carrying 273rd infantrymen.In reconnoitering the enemy position, Currie crossed three roads under heavy enemy machine gun fire and the dashed ahead of his patrol to grenade the German officers and shoot the sentry.He then ordered his patrol to withdraw before an approaching enemy tank.
In another incident Lt. Currie is credited with saving the life of a buddy who was also a fellow student at Davidson College, North Carolina, where the two were in school at the time they entered the service.
Unknown to his former school mate, Currie shot and killed a German sniper who had already drawn aim on the other man.
The coincidence of the incident was that neither man knew the other was assigned to the same battle ground.
In a letter to Rev. Currie, a soldier in Lt. Currie's command referred to his officer as a "soldier's officer."The letter, written at Hen_gin, Germany, follows:
"The Father of Robert A. Currie
"Mullis, West Virginia
"Dear Sir:
"Perhaps you will wonder who is writing you.It makes little difference who is writing--it's what I have to say.It also matters that I am a soldier in K Company.I have next lowest rank a man can have but I was not caught napping when it comes to judging a man for what he is and tries to be.
"I am speaking of Lt. Robert Currie whom I bade goodbye this morning after eight months of the most pleasant association any soldier could wish for.Honestly, it's hard for me to explain the deep respect that I have for him.I never looked upon him as a superior.He didn't' want it that way.
"He was really a soldier's officer.Anything he could do for the enlisted man was the least, in his estimation, that he could do.His qualities of leadership were the highest of any officer I have ever known.His morals were beyond reproach.He is one of the few men that I really ever wanted to be like.I would pick him as my model man.He has everything -- personality, character, leadership, intelligence and a million other qualities that could never be enumerated because of my limited education.
"I do not stand alone in this hero worship.I know every man in the outfit and I have yet to hear a harsh word spoken about him.I've heard men say more than once, when a tough assignment was coming up, I'll volunteer for it if Lt. Currie is leading it.The men under him trusted his judgment, relied upon his leadership.None envied him of his many fine traits because they felt as I feel that he was entitled to them.The way he greeted the men each morning is another thing that I will never forget.He would always flash that toothy grin of his and say, 'How ya' doin'?'
"I don't know whether he was aware of the fact that men noticed little things like that or not.When the going was tough, he always had that smile and that pep talk for the men.That's why they would follow him through hell, and on occasions, did.
"This letter is mixed up and poorly worded but the thing that I want to get across is -- that Robert Currie is a gentlemen as well as a soldier and my association with him has given me something to aim for.I shall never attain that height but you are his father, and I want you to know that each man in this organization would like to be half the man your son is.I know you are proud of him and have every right in the world to be.
"I hope to come to West Virginia sometime to shake the had that spanked him when he was a kid,
"Sincerely yours,
"Pfc. J. Tutt Snodgrass, jr.,

10 Jun 1948:Whitesville Mayor Walks Out of Meeting; Accused Of Lack of Cooperation -- Whitesville--Mayor Troy W. Jarrell walked out on a city council meeting this week after charges against his leniency towards prisoners piled up.
First he denied charges by two city councilmen and Patrolman Henry Snodgrass he had repeatedly and deliberately failed to cooperate with city officials in promoting an efficient city government...
The dispute apparently started when the city council reinstated Snodgrass on the city police force after he had been discharged by the mayor more than a month ago.Snodgrass had been charged by the mayor with mistreating a prisoner.He was rehired at a special meeting of the city council.
Councilman Moses said that Jarrell shook hands with Snodgrass at the special meeting and promised to cooperate fully with the officer.Since that time, Moses charged, the mayor deliberately sought Snodgrass' release from the city payroll.Moses told the mayor that such "knifing in the back" had to be stopped.
Snodgrass told the council that Mayor Jarrell had repeatedly shoed leniency toward prisoners by allowing them to sign bad checks in payment of their fines, and by not trying them to the full extent of the charges against them.He charged that the mayor wrote checks against the Whitesville State Bank and allowed the prisoners to sign them in payment of their fines when the prisoners had no accounts with the bank.
To back up his charges Snodgrass cited specific instances in which this was done.
On the night of May 5, 1948, he said, accompanied by Raleigh County Deputy Sheriff Clyde Montgomery, he arrested in the Town of Whitesville, Norman Butcher, of Stickney, and Lundia Salisbury, of Arnett.
"I charged Butcher with being drunk, driving while drunk, and driving without an operator's license.Salisbury, owner of the car, was charged with being drunk and permitting Butcher to drive his car without a license.
"At the trial Butcher was allowed to plead guilty to being drunk and driving without a license and was fined on both charges, but was neither tried nor fined on the third charge of driving while drunk.He was released from jail after being allowed to sign a 'rubber' check in payment of the two fines against him.
"Salisbury was allowed to plead guilty to being drunk and also signed a worthless check in payment of his fine, and was released from jail without being tried or fined for the second charge of permitting Butcher to drive his car without an operator's license."
Snodgrass pointed out Butcher could not have been guilty of being drunk and driving without a license without being guilty of driving drunk also.He added the case had been disposed of without obtaining a statement from Deputy Sheriff Clyde Montgomery.
In another instance, he said he had arrested two men and jailed them on charges of drinking in a public place and being noticeably intoxicated.An hour and a half later, he said, the two men were back in town drinking again.
When he went to the jail, he said, to see why the men had been released, he discovered two "rubber" checks in the jail office signed by the two men in payment of their fines.He said he could show the council between 75 and 100 of such checks presently at the jail office.
He told the council that it was impossible to enforce the law under such conditions.
Mayor Jarrell counter-charged that Snodgrass had been over-stepping his jurisdiction and had been "meddling in the mayor's business," but he offered no comment when Snodgrass challenged him to prove his statement.
Jarrell stood up and announced that he had "listened to enough of this stuff" and that the meeting was adjourned but Moses told him that the city's business had not been cleared up.
"As far as I'm concerned the meeting is adjourned," Jarrell said angrily, and walked out.
City Recorder Dallas Andrews took charge and the meeting continued.

ok it's Thursday...
I just got done with a quick yoga session and ended it on a prayer and meditation. After which I jumped into the steamer to process the jumbled ideas that were racing through my head. Thoughts came flooding in so fast and furious I am writing this post in a robe and towel wrapped around my dripping hair. I was worried I would lose the insight I gained during this meditation. This project has been streaming in and out of my consciousness for years and its elusiveness has kept me from acting. It's time to break it down and start the process.
First.... I'm feeling this project will last a year. We are just finishing up 2014 and the new year is approaching quickly. If I don't get my act together another year will come and go and the gentle nudges seemingly from the heavens will go unanswered.
Ok...so I am a mother of 4 boys and they are my life blood, my energy, my soul. I am so grateful for them and what they teach me every day.... usually it's PATIENCE. I pray for it always as I listen to long drawn out stories of something funny that another kid said at school (funny for the kids not so much me), watching another kendama move mastered, reading with my child who is dyslexic, asking them repeatedly to do their chores, do their homework, practice soccer, attend their scouting meetings and follow through with whats been asked of them by all their teachers, leaders, and coaches. All these things are important to them so they are important to me.
I hand my children over to their school teachers for 6 hours a day, then I hand them over to church leaders (sometimes reluctantly....I'm unsure about the whole organized religion thing), sports coaches, and tutors (for my child with dyslexia). They come home..... we eat dinner..... do homework and they go to bed. How much really am I teaching them? Do my children know how to love without boundaries and borders? Because that is what I would teach them...... Do my children know how to serve? Because those you serve you love. Do my children know how very special their little voices can be? How much of a difference they personally can make in other peoples lives? I'm not sure..... I don't have very many hours in the day to show them that. I'm running like a mad woman just as they are...
2015 will be a year where I follow through with these gentle nudges, these abstract Ideas, this unorthodox way of teaching my children what I want them to be prepared with as they go out into the shining world and start their own lives. I know it sounds cliche but "Our children are our future, teach them well and let THEM lead the way." as Whitney Houston so brilliantly taught us in the early 90's.
I will be taking on social issues with love. Serving others, and finding ways to show my kids that with love in your heart ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. So, I will bring my children along (and any of you who would like to join.) We will document our journey and see how this social LOVE experiment goes. My intention is to see this project in the 2017 Sundance Film Festival. ( keep in mind....I have no idea how long it takes to film and edit a documentary, or how much it costs.) This hurdle has kept me from doing anything for years so....I'm going to TRUST it will and can work it's self out.
Now let me be totally transparent here. I have no idea how I'm going to make this happen. All I know is the direction I'm going. I will throw caution and LOVE at the wind and we'll see where this takes us.
My intention with this love project isn't just to teach my kids.... I'd also like shine a spotlight on organizations and people who are already on the ground making a difference.
We will be taking on learning disabilities. I would like to interview several local schools and see what their needs are and what resources they have access to for our children. What measures do they have in place for these students? 1 in 4 students has a learning disability and MOST go un-diagnosed. Children learn to hide, act, and fumble through school when in actuality they could thrive with a little assistance and awareness. I want to spread the word to these kids that there is hope, and assistance. Obviously this issue is close to my heart. I have a child that was just diagnosed with dyslexia. Last night he told me he'd rather be a worm than go to school. He cried and cried to have to do his nightly reading and told me he was the dumbest kid in his class. It broke my heart. It is urgent to me as a parent knowing that there are THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of kids in similar situations through out the world and they don't know their worth. It's being measured a certain way in schools and their strengths are being forgotten or unnoticed. (Opportunities for service will be available).
Child obesity and nutrition. This is a huge gigantic topic. It's an important one and one we should handle with so much gentleness and care. We will be shining a spotlight on healthcare organizations, and programs that teach children how to become healthy eaters and active adults. (Opportunities for service will be available).
Homelessness. Homeless men, women, and children is an epidemic. There is one homeless person in particular that is near and dear to my heart....my little brother. We will be tackling substance abuse this month and the affects that it has on our brains and abilities to function. I will be interviewing my little brother through out the month. Not all homeless people are alcoholics and drug attics. I just watched on The TODAY show this morning a segment on children that are homeless. It both broke my heart and melted it all at once. There is SO much we could be doing locally to help those in need. Of coarse there will be several service projects and opportunities to serve this month. So, be sure to check in with me.
We'll be traveling to Haiti to work at a friends orphanage and home for impoverished Haitian children. This month we will raise funds and supplies for this organization and spend time serving those in need.
The rest of the months are open to ideas from those of you who would like to get involved. I have several friends that have non-profit organizations that they support or have started. I want to hear from you. Maybe this can be one big divine collaboration! I'd love that.
If you find yourselves reading this...and you feel like you have an inner stirring to get involved...help, assist, donate (time, money, resources, knowledge) contact me. I'd love to hear from you.

A clear and accessible presentation of quantum theory, suitable for researchers yet accessible to graduates.
That is, a consistent theory of quantum physics, not a theory of a consistent quantum. Griffiths (physics, Carnegie-Mellon U.) argues that the primary mathematical constructs of quantum theorywave functionscan be given a direct physical interpretation, without the measurement that most textbooks use to connect mathematical objects to physical reality. The trick, he says, is to avoid letting concepts of classical physics intrude. His treatment is designed to help newcomers grasp the fundamentals of the field, but he warns that they cannot learn the field by reading it alone. Annotation c.

One of my family's favorite places for wings and steaks is Applebees. I should say it used to be our favorite place, but I will touch on that later. About once a month or so we would get together and go to our local Applebees on Queens Blvd in Rego Park, NY. The kids would usually order from the children's menu and my husband and I would have their 2 for $20 or 2 for $25 combos. We would get a steak or chicken dish with one appetizer. Our favorite pastime was ordering buffalo wings with blue cheese on Friday nights. My husband would usually pick the wings up and we would eat them at home while watching a movie. We really love their wings and especially their blue cheese. One thing they could never get right though in the 10 years we were ordering wings was the amount of blue cheeses we ordered. When placing the order I would tell them we wanted 5 blues cheeses. And I would repeat this request. Every time my husband would go to pick up the order there would be 1 or 2 blue cheeses but never the 5 we requested. He would then have to wait for them to get the blue cheeses from the kitchen. It was very inconvenient to make him wait each time. We eventually spoke to a manager about this issue but it didn't change things. Well let's just say that our love for their wings overshadowed this lapse in customer service. So we continued to order hoping that one day they would get their act together.
Several months ago we noticed some changes at this particular Applebees. I am pretty sure they changed management because there were a bunch of new faces running around. They upgraded the interior but they didn't upgrade their customer service.
On a recent Sunday evening we decided to all go there for wings but we would eat in this time. We asked to be seated in the bar area since they offer happy hour wing appetizer and drink deals there. At first they gave us a bit of an attitude when we asked to be seated there. They didn't say it but the hostess looked at our kids, as if to say kids are not welcome in this section. Being that this is a family restaurant I saw no problem with this. After we were seated for a couple of minutes the bar waitress came to our table. We asked her if wings were part of happy hour. She said yes but then said they had run out of wings. "Are you kidding", I said. "How does a restaurant run out of wings on football Sunday", my husband chimed in. After coming to grips with this we decided to order drinks. I ordered a Bahama Mama and he ordered a Long Island Iced tea both with little ice. We don't like our drinks getting watered down by all the ice they usually put in drinks. Anyway when the waitress returned both my husbands and my drinks were filled with ice. I mentioned this to our waitress and she said if you tell them little ice the glass won't be full. I said are you kidding we request this all the time and never have a problem. The waitress took my drink and went back behind the bar. I could see her talking to the bartender. When she came back with my drink the large & tall glass was half full with 2 ice cubes in it. I was like, "What's this?" She said that this what they give you when you say no ice. I immediately realized that this waitress was messing with me and was just trying to spite me. My husband said, "We've been coming here for ten years and never had this issue before". I then asked to speak with the manager. When the manager arrived I told her why I was upset and also included that we've been loyal customers for 10 years. To my surprise she defended the bar waitresses actions. She said sorry this is what happens when you ask for little or no ice. I said, "Since when?" I said if I ask for Glass of Coca Cola with no ice would they bring me half filled glass as well? She then offered to add more juice to the glass. They should have done that in the first place. Instead of having a bar waitress behaving rudely to good customers. At this point my husband said let's just pay for the drinks and leave. Our kids complained that we were leaving but it was the right thing to do. We are truly upset that Applebees of Rego Park treated us so poorly. Their negative and condescending attitudes will not be forgotten. We have decided that we will no longer go to our favorite place to eat any longer. After leaving the restaurant we went to TGI Fridays on Austin street in Forest Hills. When I ordered a drink and said, "little bit of ice please". The waiter replied, "light on the ice right? You got it". When he returned with my drink it was light on the ice and guess what it was filled to the rim. TGI Fridays knows how to make their patrons happy.
All opinions are mine and mine alone and may differ from those of your own.

Kayle Build Guide by Tekenu
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.

Kayle Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
I've finally decided on a Champion that I really enjoy playing and thought I'd share my build with everyone. I've read a lot of different guides and thought I'd add to the library of Kayle builds.
This build is a bit different as it's main focus is Attack Speed.
It's been pretty effective for me. I think Kayle is best used as a Hybrid, so that crazy attack speed gained by this build could allow for a lot higher kill/assist scores.
*Keep in mind this is my first guide/build and I'm only a level 15 Summoner, so this build is working great in unranked matches. Maybe someone can test it out in higher skill games.*
Open with Dagger, 1 Health Potion.
Grab Berserker's Greeves for attack/movement speed.
Pick up another Dagger or 2 to build a Stinger (Again, more attack speed).
Next go with the Recurve Bow (attack speed) and a Ruby Crystal to go towards an Ionic Spark (Probably the most farm-freindly item in the game).
Follow up with another Dagger and Brawlers Glove, than Zeal.
Than another Dagger and Cloak of Agiity to get Phantom Dancers.
Meki Pendant and Amplifyer Tome to finish the Nashor's Tooth.
Skill Sequence
Start off with Rightious Fury for range, Reckoning at level 2 for slow/damage and Divine Blessing at 3 for heal/support. Get Intervention at 6 and max last. Alternate stats in the remaining 3 skills. Reckoning gives the slow needed to immobilize, Rightious Fury gives the range (added with attack speed for big damage) and Divine Blessing helps with sustain/support.
Mostly attack speed runes all around.
Throw in some cooldown reduction and increased critical chance for added damage output.

1947 Ford Super Deluxe - $26,350.00
47 Ford Super Deluxe
1947 Ford Super Deluxe
One of the coolest things about classic cars is all of the variety you can choose from. From different makes to completely different body styles within that make. There is no doubt that the late 40's Fords have their following but you rarely see these cars out! That is probably because the horizontal grill body style was only present for 3 years before cars completely changed with the onset of the shoe box Ford. The very nicely built 47 is all steel and is extremely fun to drive. The car was built/restored approximately 5 years ago and has been well cared for and hardly ever driven since. It also just received some new upholstery work on the inside. Look around at some classic classifieds and you will see that it is very difficult to get in a built up Street Rod like this for this low price. The wide front fenders and swooping body lines give the car a really great look that is very nostalgic. The paint on it is fresh and was done in a bright solid red that looks great next to the chrome and stainless. From the side pieces to the window trim, it is all there. It has a bent style front windshield that looks great as does all of the glass. The exterior lights all work properly and custom old school blue dot tail lights are mounted in the rear. Pulling in a bit more nostalgia is the tri bar style hubcaps with thin white wall tires under each corner.
When it comes to the drive train you will find a lot of it was newly rebuilt. The 350 V8 motor came out of a 1978 Chevrolet P/U and fits under the hood nicely. These motors are very reliable and being newly rebuilt it has zero issues. It starts up with ease and has a nice smooth idle. Polished valve covers are in place with an air cleaner scoop up top. Other nice polish parts include the chrome alternator and polished radiator. Headers into dual exhaust is in place and delivers a great sound routed out of the rear. The engine compartment is very nicely done and a custom mirrored firewall is in place which always looks great for popping the hood at car shows. Backing up the motor is a 350 automatic transmission that was also completely gone through and rebuilt. The car has a power brake system in place and utilizes a dual master cylinder. Not only does the car run well, but it is a comfortable drive too. A Nova front end is in place with a Ford 9" found in the rear.
Moving onto the interior you will see that it is a very nice combination of Beige with faux Red alligator that creates a very clean look. The upholstery is very nicely done and is in great condition. The dual high back bucket seats are very comfortable and are easily adjustable. They sit to each side of a custom console that houses cupholders and the aftermarket AM/FM/CD player. On the dash are black faced gauges and the original style trim. Other upgrades include the polished Lecarra steering wheel that is wrapped in the same tan leather.
Overall, the car really has a very nice finish and would make a great classic whether your the collector or novice car guy. They marked a big change in body style for Ford and were produced for only a few years so you can bet they are only going to be harder and harder to find as time goes on.
Get this car for a huge bargain at $34,500.00!
NOW REDUCED DOWN TO $26,350.00 FOR A FAST SELL! This is a lot of car for that price.
SCAM ALERTS! Please do not get scammed by deals that look too good to be true!
If you are asked to provide money before you take delivery of the car, then you will most likely lose that money! Please do not believe the promises no matter how much you are assured.

Here is when I first spotted that bushy-tailed varmint. You can see, I have already fogged up the window from barking. Usually this tactic works and the squirrel retreats.
When this didn't work, we opened the window so that the miscreant was able to hear the full force of my barking effort.
However, this arrogant criminal was not easily deterred. In fact, he sat and watched me from a branch while I continued to bark vigorously.
Finally, after more concerted barking, the evil squirrel turned tail and left the premises. Hopefully the Evil Squirrel Cartel will think twice before invading our territory again.
I have now positioned myself so that I can maintain a constant watch on the upper tree branches in front of our house to be sure the Evil Squirrel Cartel doesn't try another attack. As you probably know, squirrels have a one hundred percent rate of recidivism when it comes to property invasion with intent to steal bird seeds, hawthorn berries, and other valuable commodities.

Spain fined leading food group Ebro Puleva nearly 30 million euros (38 million dollars) for fraud in the sugar market, the company said Tuesday.
The Supreme Court's ruling from June 25 against the Spanish company that owns food brands including Lustucru and Panzani confirmed the fine of 27.6 million euros requested in 2008 for fraud committed between 1996-1998.
Prosecutors accused 12 managers from Azucarera Ebro, which was sold by Ebro Puleva in 2008 to Associated British Foods, of falsifying documents and concealing surplus sugar production for export to avoid paying taxes.
The managers were sentenced to between nine months and four years in prison.
The company said in a statement it was "fully prepared for the economic consequences" of the decision, including the interest it would have to pay on the fine.
The decision would have "no negative effect" on Ebro's results for 2010, it said.
Shares in Ebro Puleva at the Madrid Stock Exchange fell by 0.18 percent at 13.75 euros.

Awful quiet out there in bloggerland. Methinks y'all have decided to take an extra long holiday weekend. Lest you think I'm a workaholic, let it be known that I intend on leaving early today too. Lots to do at home. I did four loads of laundry last night (it doesn't seem possible, but I can indeed go for nearly a month without running out of underwear) and have more to do tonight. It's great having three guest bedrooms, but when you fill them up, you also have to change the linens afterwards ...
Fell asleep to the sounds of a thunderstorm last night. The power dimmed once or twice but never truly went out. I had started to watch "Braveheart" primarily because I was folding laundry and hadn't bothered to change the channel, and I found myself getting drawn into it. I turned it off before it got to the large graphic battle scenes. I wouldn't say I have a weak stomach, but two throat slashings were enough for me. I don't know how (or why) people can watch these beheading videos that are out there.
If I don't see or talk to you, have a great weekend, all.
