OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The Oklahoma Senate has killed a proposal backed by Gov. Mary Fallin that would have called for a statewide vote allowing some school districts to increase property taxes to pay for safety upgrades like storm shelters and safe rooms.
The Senate voted 25-16 on Friday against the plan that had narrowly passed the House a day earlier.
The proposal would have sent to Oklahoma voters a proposal to allow school districts to exceed their bonding capacity one time over the next five years to pay for voter-approved safety initiatives, including storm shelters and safe rooms.
Critics said the measure would affect only 25 school districts that are near their bonding capacity, or about 3 percent of the more than 500 districts in Oklahoma.
Three school districts in Stephens County already have storm shelters: Empire, Velma-Alma and Comanche.

The prognosis varies from person to person. It depends on the type of eczema and its response to treatment.
Most contact dermatitis heals within two to three weeks. Most stasis dermatitis lasts for years.
About half of children with atopic eczema still have the problem as adults.

Global Youth Innovation Network
Program Participant
My name is Amos A. Avoce. I am 22 years old and live in Parakou, Benin. I've been working with Phelps Stokes for about 10 months now. My partnership with Phelps Stokes began at a Global Youth conference for Innovation in Cotonou, Benin in 2011. President and founder of GIVE1PROJECT, Thione Niang, notified me of this opportunity and I ended up representing GIVE1PROJECT Benin at the conference. The 3 day conference was a fabulous experience. This was the first time I'd assisted at an international forum of this size.
I had the opportunity to meet and speak with many young people like myself at this conference. Since then, I've opened myself up to the world. Phelps Stokes' workshop helped me realize that young people in developing countries have the opportunity to impact individuals on an international level. For example, I could utilize my skills at a local and national level. The opportunity that Phelps Stokes gave me allowed me to enlarge the scope of my skills to an international level. Since then, I'm been working with Phelps Stokes' Global Youth Innovation Network (GYIN) as the coordinator of the Youth Advisory Group. For the past 10 months, the experiences I've obtained through this position has changed my life and mentality.
My first challenge as the GYIN coordinator was the language barrier. I am a native French speaker. During my educational career, I made no effort to become proficient in English, Spanish, or Arabic. I work with GYIN, an international network whose first language is English. I am continuously collaborating with GYIN ambassadors from various regions of the world (Spain, Portugal, Egypt, Yemen). I am now attempting to become more proficient in English. Through GYIN, Phelps Stokes provided the opportunity and framework to learn this essential language.
My role in GYIN via Phelps Stokes also reinforces my skills in organization management and
youth networks. I am very passionate about organization management, a domain in which I hope to obtain a career. As GYIN coordinator, I am practically applying the skills necessary in organization management. But my experience with GYIN is different. It allows me to extend my expertise to the international level. My leadership skills and understanding of democracy and management on an international level where cultural diversity is an important fact has increased. This new position allowed me to better serve my community. With GYIN, we share successful experiences and reproduce them throughout the world.
Phelps Stokes has also given me the opportunity to expand my partnership network. Two examples include the strategic partnership between GYIN and the FIDA, in Rome on February of 2012. During this trip, I visited FIDA's headquarters, had the opportunity to meet individuals
at this institution, discuss GYIN and establish future partnerships. The second example is Pape Samb's (CEO of Phelps Stokes) arrival at Benin to introduce me to partners in Benin. Pape's arrival allowed me to establish contact with the World Bank's representative in Benin, the director of
USAID Benin, and the director of Songhai.
Finally, GYIN has given my community a success story and has encouraged many young people I know to become leaders. I always share my story in regards to GYIN and Phelps Stokes at various events, conferences, or leadership seminars that are organized by GIVE1PROJECT for youth. This inspires them and motivates them to take initiative in their communities and extend them to an international level. Phelps Stokes helped me impact the youth in my city, country, and in the rest of the world. I am very proud to work with Phelps Stokes.

Professional Leadership Development Internship
Program Participant
So much can happen in one year. It was one year ago, on May 24th 2011, that I came to my first Phelps Stokes intern orientation along with about 10 other young people. As this was my first experience interning for an NGO, I was nervous. I was hoping that I would just get through the first day without making any mistakes, little knowing that I would still be working for Phelps Stokes one year later. It might sound nice if I said that I have not made any mistakes during my time here.
However, the truth is that Phelps Stokes is a place that bestows true responsibilities on their interns and allows them to make mistakes and take chances as they tie their work to their own personal passions and interests. So I can thankfully say that, I have had glitches along the way which have allowed me to have many learning experiences, many successes, and even more opportunities to grow and develop during my year at Phelps Stokes. In summary, I have planned discussion events, helped in the creation of a website, corresponded with foreign partners, traveled to West Africa, and even represented one of our programs at the UN. While reflecting on my recent experiences, I can easily say that I am a different person than I was a year ago due in large part to my internship.
I began my internship as a database intern but was slowly given more administrative work and eventually began working on non-digital communications for the Africa programs until I recently became an assistant to the head of communications at Phelps Stokes. My co-interns and I were able to attend lunches each week with NGO professionals with diverse backgrounds and an array of careers, which allowed us to ask questions and further explore our career interests while building constructive relationships with international NGO experts. I learned much about West African and French culture, as many of my co-interns were from France and Senegal and as I participated in planning events for our programs in Benin and Senegal. In October I participated in the Global Youth Innovation Network workshop fair and conference in Cotonou, Benin and am now a GYIN ambassador and liaison to Phelps Stokes. I continue to create relationships with translators for many of our documents and marketing materials which need to be rendered in French, Spanish, and Arabic and I continue to communicate with program participants all over Africa, Europe, and Latin America on a daily basis. I know with certainty that my experience as an intern at Phelps Stokes is in no way unique in comparison to my fellow co- interns, although, as I have met other young professionals in DC who make copies and answer phones all day, it is extremely unheard of elsewhere.
This internship has given me unique exposure to international development work and the ability to pursue my academic and professional interests while also gaining hands-on, practical experience in serving marginalized communities. However, the thing that has made the greatest impact on me is the leadership and encouraging zeal of young people around the world and in the Phelps Stokes offices who are determined to empower their fellow entrepreneurs and generate positive change in their communities. Even the interns that worked for Phelps Stokes last summer have gone on to pursue their careers while remaining connected to Phelps Stokes because we have all built lifelong friendships with each other. This is one reason why I desired to continue my internship into my fall and spring semesters this past year. I realized that my internship was the best lens through which I could continue my studies in International Affairs. I have cultivated deep connections with passionate people and continued my interests through this internship. Needless to say, I am excited to see where this next year at Phelps Stokes takes me.

National Homecomers Academy
Program Participant
William T. was only 21-years old when those steel doors locked. That was in 1977 and Jimmy Carter was President of the United States. There were no personal computers or cell phones then. That was the era of typewriters and rotary-dial pay phones. The price of gasoline was 65-cents a gallon. The minimum wage was just $2.30. And William T. was in the prime of his youth with a lifetime of possibilities. All of those hopes and dreams came to a crashing end when the steel doors slammed shut.
But, on this night, William T. is a happy man. Seven-hundred fifty-two days of "deliverance" – a spiritual awakening that occurred just before he left a Florida jail cell with a heart that ached to be a better man. He believes that he is a force for good. He has banded with the other Homecomers to be an agent for change. William T. will to do everything and anything to convince at-risk men and women to "choose a different path." He can show them where the other path leads. He speaks from his heart. As he talks, he passes out his card – "William T., National Homecomers Academy, Community Change Agent." And on that card is his cell phone number. He delivers the message: "You can call me, any time. Day or night – or in the middle of the night. I'll answer."
From the corner of his eye, William T. spots a young man – reluctant, withdrawn, hanging back from the others. When the chance presents itself, William T. slips away from the crowd and approaches him. He's about nineteen years old and thin. His eyes, bloodshot with pupils dilated, reveal instantly to William T. that the young man is high. William T. has that unsettled feeling that he is looking at himself in a distant mirror.
"So, Shorty. What's your story? Why are you here?" asks William T. And the two men begin to converse. And little-by-little, they build a rapport. William T. learns that the young man is troubled – continually being prodded and coaxed by his "street friends" to participate in activities that could cause him to windup "behind bars." They talk for the next hour.
As the grill is being stowed away and the stereo speakers disconnected, William T. slips the young man his card and, with a smile, repeats to Shorty what he had earlier told the crowd: "You can call me, any time. Day or night – or in the middle of the night. I'll answer."
A little more than four months have passed since that August night. And William T.'s cell phone is ringing. He opens his eyes and picks up the phone. It's 2:38 a.m.
"Hey, O.G. (short for Old Gangster), you said I could call you any time." says the voice on the other end. "I did, Shorty. I did say that," William T. replies.
For the next two hours, the O.G. and the young man talk. Something is about to "go down," and Shorty's "friends" want him to be a part of it. But, the young man doesn't want to be involved – and William T. counsels him and speaks from his heart. William T. talks about choosing paths and about consequences. "Stand-up and man-up," urges William T.
Somewhere in the District of Columbia, that next evening, an armed robbery occurred. The perpetrators were arrested. "Shorty" was not among them.

Global Ambassador
Program Participant
My parents started the grassroots philanthropic foundation, now known as Lillian Watson Values (LWV) in the mid 1980s. I grew up witnessing their charitable endeavors, and admiring it. I took over their work a few years back, and have enjoyed the challenge. I met a lot of challenges, and desperately needed support and help navigating how to conquer these challenges. It was by sheer luck that I stumbled into Phelps Stokes, and after one meeting I knew this was where all my challenges were going to be met head on. I have been a Phelps Stokes Global Ambassador for more than a year, and the experience has been nothing but awesome.
My partnering with Phelps Stokes has led me to meet very interesting, influential and intelligent people. I have learned a lot, and my network of contacts has grown exponentially. Phelps Stokes has opened doors that were not only unthinkable, but those that I wasn't aware of. The sheer mention of Phelps Stokes name helps with the credibility factor that most small organizations like LWV suffer. The support staff at the offices of Phelps Stokes has been tremendous at giving me all the assistance I can get.
Being a global ambassador has enriched my work, my professionalism and my personal life. Phelps Stokes has taken me to heights I could not have otherwise gone alone!!!

Latino Youth Leadership
Program Participant
My name is Jorge Luque and I am from Panama City, Panama. My first language is Spanish although I am fluent in English as well. Halfway through the year of 2009, I moved to the United States of America with the hopes of receiving a higher level of education. One year later I was accepted into Duke Ellington School of the Arts as a guitar major. Since then I have been working very hard, academically and artistically, in order to become a successful musician. My ultimate goal in life is to promote moral principles and values such as unity, equality and generosity through the influence of music.
However, to accomplish said goal I need basic leadership skills which is why I decided to participate in the Latino Youth Global Leadership Program. By the end of the program I hope to have gained more self-confidence and the ability to effectively speak in public. I also hope to understand better the racial and ethnic issues currently occurring in our society and how can I improve them. Finally, I am also interested in the college preparation and scholarship opportunities that the Latino Youth Global Leadership Program offers.
So far I have enjoyed my experience at the Latino Youth Global Leadership Program. I have learned more about what one's identity means and what the differences between race and ethnicity are. I have also learned about the values, skills and characteristics that make someone a leader. Most importantly though, I have learned much from the experiences shared by the other participants of the program. Experiences and opinions which have contributed to my personal growth have made me even more aware of how people are treated differently based on their race or ethnicity. I have also shared some of my own experiences and views with other members which has improved my conversational skill and the ability to express my ideas. I am looking forward to keep participating in the program and further improve my leadership skills.

Hazard Hall
Cliff, thanor updating Hazard Hall.
Don't forget I had updates for his wife where I used the new Edit feature. If you are not familiar wiht that, you go to your home page, where you see this message. Look at the top, and you should see a goup of tabs. On the left side you will see 2 tabs labeled:
Profile, Messags.
On the right you will see 3:
Edits, Contributor Tools, Edit my profile.
The one labeled edits is what is new. If someone has sent you a new edit request edit will be labeled something like "Edit(#)" where # is the number of updates you have received. So if you were to see "Edits(2)" means you have two new update requests...
Anyway, if you click on the tab, then you see what the requests are. If you click accept, then the system makes the updates for you..
Anyway, in the case of Mary Hall, you should see 2: One to link her to Hazard her husband, the other to include her maiden name.
Let me know if you have questions.
Thanks again for updating Hazard's bio.

Update 12/20/2012: JoJo has released her 13-track Agápē tape. Download it over at Audiomack.
JoJo follows up July's "Demonstrate," produced by Noah "40″ Shebib, with "We Get By," a track taken from her newly-announced mixtape Agápē (the word for spiritual love in Classical Greek), to be released next month. The song's got a dusty jazz beat, some flute, and the sound of JoJo's panting as part of the percussion. If you celebrate the winter with cranberry Stoli, this is perhaps a bit of a holiday song.

State Sen. Art Torres (D-Los Angeles) has raised nearly $1 million, almost twice as much as City Councilwoman Gloria Molina has collected in the 1st District race that will put a Latino on the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, records show.
Nearly $1 out of every $4 donated to the Torres campaign has come from organized labor, including many unions representing county employees whose salaries are set by the board. The biggest county union has raised more than $100,000 from unions as far away as Michigan.

Two similar looking shelf fungi, the turkey tail (Trametes versicolor)and the false turkey tail (Stereum ostrea) are most easily distingushed from each other by the presences or absence of pores on the lower surface of the mushroom.
Lichens are actually two differnt organsims in one....a fungus that has contained within it a small photosynthesizing organism, usually algae. Sometimes instead of algae the complex contains cyanobacteria, giving it a dark, bluish-gray appearence.

Age: 28
Family: Married to Jamie with two daughters, 5-year-old Anastasia and 3-year-old Ainsley. Expecting a baby, due in September
Occupation: Public relations marketing assistant at Blount Memorial Hospital.
If the windows are rolled down in Caroline Lamar's car as she and daughters Anastasia and Ainsely are out driving, listen for showtunes. Caroline has been addicted to Broadway for a long time. It all began when she was 9 years old and her parents took her to see the stage show "Les Miserables."
"We loved every minute of it," Lamar said. "My sister became very involved with performing arts."
Lamar says her parents taught them to enjoy the arts. "They exposed us to different types of things and gave us a love of the arts in general."
Lamar's mom was a kindergarten teacher, and her dad was a minister. Even though each had demanding jobs and both of them were involved in the community, Lamar said their children always knew where they stood.
"We were always a priority, and we never felt we were second fiddle. We always knew that on the pecking order, we were No. 1. They were busy, but we did neat stuff with them."
Lamar says she and her sisters didn't get to go to Disney World until she was 16, but they still had interesting vacations as a family. "We went to Gettysburg and Yellowstone - cool places. We spent six weeks in Yellowstone. It was wonderful. Talk about family togetherness. We are very close knit."
Lamar loves sharing how she and her husband, Jamie. met while at the University of Tennessee. She was moving into the 15th floor at Andy Holt Apartments. Jamie was a resident assistant, and Lamar's father went downstairs to borrow a hammer. Jamie was the R.A. at the front desk who loaned the hammer to Lamar's father.
"My husband jokes that, 'If your dad only knew what that hammer began,' and that was 10 years ago this summer."
Lamar also enjoys running marathons and half marathons. She ran high school track at Seymour High School and was always outside because her father enjoyed hiking. "Being outdoors is a big part of our family's life and the biggest draw of running is being outdoors. It is a great stress reliever. I have a husband, a house and two kids. Running is my time."
Lamar has done two marathons and three half marathons since 2007. "When I finished my first marathon, I was more proud of my marathon than my college degree. Anybody can study. Running that marathon is something I had to do all on my own."
She has done all of her marathons since her last child was born in April of 2007 and now she has a baby on the way due in the fall. She credits her family, especially her husband, for helping her train. "I want to set a good example (for my children). They may not be into running but health will be a big part of their lives."
Lamar says she excited about her new position with Blount Memorial Hospital and a big reason is her concern with living a healthy lifestyle. "Since I've become a mom, healthcare and overall fitness has become a important part of who I am."
Being able to live and work in the same community is also an added benefit. "It's nice to live and work in the same place. I'm very excited."
25 Random Things About Caroline Lamar
1. My parents are my heroes, and I am trying to raise my kids as well as they raised my sister and me.
2. Many people think my sister and I are twins. I'm the older sister by about four years.
3. I've been a mom for a little over five years, and my daughters have taught me far more than I will ever be able to teach them.
4. I love to sing Broadway tunes in the car with my daughters. We can perform the entire soundtrack to "Wicked" on demand.
5. My husband, Jamie, and I met at UT when we were both resident assistants at the same dorm.
6. Jamie is an amazing dad and has been extremely accommodating as I have needed Cinnamon Altoids, Fruit Loops, raspberry lemonade and various other things at all hours of the night to satisfy my pregnancy cravings.
7. I love to run and make use of Blount County's greenways whenever I can.
8. I ran the Disney Marathon in January -- four days after I found out I was expecting my third child.
9. I have a tattoo of a winged foot on my ankle to remind me of my commitment to running and to my health.

Instead, it is more productive to think of them as a product of some of metal's earliest and most defining bands, like Black Sabbath and Slayer. While their retro-tinged, classic metal sound and propensity to use a combination of Norse mythology and fantasy literature and source material for their lyrics has attracted a lot of attention since their debut in 2006, with Apocryphon The Sword have hit their stride.
While stoner metal implies (at least to me) something more down tempo and psychedelic in flavour to what The Sword play, Apocryphon borrows heavily from the genre's billowing riff structures and thick, ooozing sound.
The riffs are also incredibly hook-laden and catchy, making this record and easy listen that can be enjoyed just as well as a distant background soundtrack or an intense and focused listening experience. There's also just a little bit of a darkened atmosphere that adds just a bit of spine-tingling ominousness.
The vocal performance on the record is a highlight. The lyrics are insistent enough to be genuinely interesting while remaining easy and engaging to sing along to. The songs also have a catchy structure centred on powerful choruses that make the stirring, at times anthemic vocals even more of a central focus.
But while Apocryphon is certainly a sing-along record with solid vocals, that is not to diminish the contribution of the groovy, cleverly deployed drum assault and the smart, searing guitars. The production is also spot-on, accentuating the fat, fuzzy ruffing with just that perfect bit of smudge without declaring its presence or being too heavy-handed.
The more that The Sword fully embrace their quest for epicness, the more successful Apocryphon becomes. While grooving, exploratory pieces like "Seven Sisters" are enjoyable, it is the deep, fist-pumping stadium numbers like "Hawks and Serpents" where this record really shines. With this release, The Sword are finally unsheathed.

HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL: Lady Roos fend off Maidens
Lake View grabs early lead in upset bid
SAN ANGELO, Texas - The Lake View High School girls basketball team started strong and finished strong against the favored Killeen Lady Roos on Tuesday.
But it was wasn't enough for the Maidens to pull off the upset.
Despite grabbing an early lead and closing the game with a furious rally, Lake View fell 65-63 in a hard-fought, entertaining game at Ben Norton Gym.
Against a team that beat them 43-22 in Killeen, the Maidens jumped out to a 17-8 lead on their home court Tuesday, showing this meeting would be much different.
Led by a 28-point performance from 6-foot-1 post Jasmine Goodwine, Killeen came back to take the lead, but the Lady Roos could never put Lake View away. The Maidens were within 34-30 at halftime and 46-42 entering the fourth quarter.
Killeen appeared to finally take control with a 58-47 lead with less than three minutes to go, but Lake View guard C-Anne Bendanillo hit back-to-back 3-pointers, then had a putback and a steal to help spark a late comeback.
Sophomore guard Shayna Pittman then hit two 3-pointers in the final 15 seconds, including one at the buzzer, to get Lake View ever-so-close to getting a much-needed win.
Lake View dropped to 7-16 overall and 1-5 in district with another tough loss, while Killeen improved to 15-12 and 4-2.
The Maidens had four players score in double digits, led by 14 points each from Pittman and Katie Perez, who had 11 points in the first half. Celeste Silva and Bendanillo each chipped in 10.
Goodwine's 28 points, especially the 18 that came before halftime, killed the Maidens' early momentum, Lake View head coach Sharon Beam said.
"I felt like we pretty much allowed one player on their team to beat us," Beam said. "We didn't stop her early enough, and that kind of hurt us as far as not defending her the way we should have. We did play well and fought until the very end.
"We just had to hope they missed their free throws, and they did a good job of stepping up and making them."
Esha Atkins also had 19 points for Killeen, doing most of her damage with five 3-pointers. But it was Goodwine who pulled Killeen out of an early deficit.
After Killeen tied the game in the second quarter, it was back and forth the rest of the first half.
The Lady Roos went ahead 44-34 midway through the third quarter, but Pittman came in off the bench with some big baskets to keep Lake View within striking distance.
Pittman also had two of the Maidens' six 3-pointers.
"We knew San Angelo could shoot very well from the outside," Killeen head coach Latisha Williams said. "It was almost like the more we were in their face, the more they'd make it. We knew it'd be a tough game, and we were just glad to pull it out. ...
"(Goodwine) was absolutely huge. Thank goodness she was shooting very well in the first half. She kept us in it."
Bendanillo said she was proud of her team's effort, especially after losing by 21 points last time. The Maidens' offense produced 41 more points than in the last meeting.
"We knew what to do now," Bendanillo said. "We wanted that one bad. We played hard and played as a team. We just came up short."
Lake View will play again Friday at Waco University.

A New Castle County Superior Court jury convicted James Cooke of the rape and murder of a University of Delaware student in 2005.
A federal judge is set to hear arguments on whether sex offenders' use of social media constitutes free speech protected by the U.S. Constitution.
Monday's hearing in San Francisco federal court comes after U.S. District Judge Thelton Henderson preliminarily blocked part of a voter-approved ballot initiative related to human trafficking.
Proposition 35 requires registered sex offenders to give authorities a list of their Internet providers and screen names.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California and the Electronic Frontier Foundation sued, arguing that the rule restricts offenders' rights to free speech, due process and equal protection.
Proponents say courts elsewhere have rejected similar challenges.
The lawsuit does not affect provisions in the measure that toughen penalties on those convicted of human trafficking. Voters overwhelmingly approved the initiative last month.

Que Ambient background music: OoooOOoOOooo
Now that I've set the mood…
A while back, when I was still breastfeeding the twins in the lounge room, with lights dimmed so I could only just make out the outline of the bouncers on the floor in front of me, my skin prickled. My eyes darted fearfully around the room, and I swore that some ghostly apparition was about to show themselves to me. I squinted into the darkness and then… nothing. Surely, if there was a ghost in my house, it would show itself in the middle of the night, amid silence that was complete save for the clock ticking in the other room. It didn't, and to be honest, I was relieved.
Ghosts and the paranormal have always fascinated me. I've lost track of the number of times I've gotten myself so worked up by horror movies and You Tube videos of paranormal activity that I've had to sleep with the light on! Am I a believer? Perhaps. I've never officially met a ghost but I do get a skin-crawling sensation when I'm in a place where I think ghosts may reside.
One of the more frightening experiences was the ghost tour at Port Arthur, Tasmania. On top of viewing the eerie penitentiary by lamp light and walking into a basement used (in those days) as a place to disembowel dead bodies, the guide informed us that there's a type of ghost that can hurt you. The poltergeist can actually inflict pain and pressure on your body. I barely slept a wink for the next fortnight!
I did have a small episode in our last home that can't be completely explained either. I woke to find myself paralysed in my own bed, my arms crossed over my chest (nope, don't usually sleep that way) and heard the drawer next to me fly open with force. Of course, I tried to convince myself at the time that it was my puppy (impossible, since he was just over the size of a tennis ball back then). Fortunately, my husband also heard the loud noise, so he didn't think I was completely insane. There were no other unworldly stirrings after that so it must have been the wind … right?
Incidents like this have inspired a plethora of legends and myths. Ghost stories litter our cultural history, from campfire tales, to the apparition of Hamlet's dead father, to Moaning Myrtle of the Harry Potter series. Why not enjoy the feeling of raised hairs, clammy palms and goose pimples.
So, have you met or experienced any ghostly visions or feelings? Come on, scare me!
I'm a creative person, I can sing, I can dance and I can draw. I'm lucky really, I have a bunch of little talents, none that could ever bring me close to a professional level though (bummer!) but something is better than nothing, right?
When creating the cake for Miss Possum's first birthday, I thought I'd be fine with it. I honestly thought I could put a decent cake together. The cake would be delicious and it would look spectacular.
I'll freely admit that I wanted to impress other mums at the party (silly, I know).
Miss possum's first birthday theme was The Very Hungry Caterpillar and although I'd made some adorable decorations, the cake was a fizzler.
Okay, I know it wasn't that bad but I was very disappointed with the outcome. It looked so much better in my head.
Bring it forward to her second birthday party, when she turned four, and I really wanted to lift my game. My own expectations told me I could do better. I was really scared about trying fondant but although messy, it was much easier than first anticipated!
I found this awesome marshmellow fondant recipe that's not only delicious but it cuts corners like you wouldn't believe (with three kids any corner cutting is a good, no, a great thing!)
So, it was a Pinkie Pie Party this year (not the new weird one but the old cute one) and I decided I'd throw myself into it.
I had a great recipe, tick.
I watched a heap of you tube clips, tick.
I bought some fondant equipment, tick.
I was ready to go.
Had I known I was going to develop this blog I probably would have taken photos of the mess, my house was covered in icing sugar. Even after a vacuum and mop there was still a wet, sugary sheen covering my tiles.
I'm not ashamed that I did a practise run. Here was the cake I made for Kindy.
And then, I really surpassed my own expectations and created this one for her birthday party.
I did tell you I was going to throw myself into it!
I did impress mums at the party (thanks for stroking my ego, girls) but the comment that really made me the happiest person alive was when Miss Possum said 'Oh Mummy, I love it!' with a big grin on her face.
Learning how to make a fondant decorated cake was not worth getting attention from other mums, high expectations of myself, or not. Really, the only reason I'll be making spectacular cakes in future will be for another look at the joy on my little girls face.
When have you surpassed your expectations? Do you have any talents that come in handy?
After a visit to a local market on Mother's day, little Miss Possum had the choice of a pony ride, a hot chocolate or her face painted. Guess which one she chose.
Since that day she's been obsessed with face painting. It started with a dry paint brush, she'd paint my face with pretend paint and I would paint hers. I became a princess, tiger and ballerina over and over and over. No paint in my hair. No washing required. It was quite relaxing, until….
I bought her some face paint!
I wasn't the only one who put my face on the line either. Daddy did too!
Putting my face on the line was worth it. I'm sure I'll be doing it over and over again.
Would you put your face on the line?
They might be easy twins but they can go a little wild! I found these adorable owl beanies at a twilight market. Do any of your children have cute wildlife clothing?
I'm linking up at the fabulous and fantastic Wordless Wednesday

"We're just creating a prescence, letting people know we're here and if there's problems we'll deal with it", said Sgt. Jeff Pike.
Most of the action they see is minimal. Festival goers forget to leave their dogs at home, or ride their bikes through pedestrian areas. There is the occasional fight, but for the most part officers don't see major problems.
The number of officers varies, depending on the event. There were four officers at yesterday's picnic at the park. 75 officers will be in place for the Block Party.

Police say man fatally shot wife, himself
Family says they dialed 911 after husband's panicked phone call
Sheriff's investigators were trying Tuesday to determine why a man apparently shot his wife to death, then took his own life in their Nyeland Acres home Monday night.
The shooting was reported at 8:31 p.m. Monday in the 3700 block of Santa Clara Avenue. The bodies of a man and a woman were found in a back bedroom of the house.
Investigators suspect the man fatally shot his wife before committing suicide. Each died from a single gunshot wound, said Capt. Ross Bonfiglio, a spokesman for the Ventura County Sheriff's Department.
"It's quite possibly a murder-suicide. However, there could be other possible explanations, at least as to why the first person died," Bonfiglio said. Investigators Tuesday had not ruled out, for example, the possibility that the man shot his wife accidentally.
Detectives were looking into the couple's relationship and physical evidence at the scene for clues, Bonfiglio said.
The Ventura County Medical Examiner-Coroner's Office declined Tuesday to release the couple's names because investigators were still working to notify family members. The man was 30, and the woman was 27, authorities said.
The man was Julio Cesar Zavala, his parents told The Star. Zavala lived with his wife, her 12-year-old son and her 6-year-old daughter in a small house behind his parents' home on Santa Clara Avenue, said his father, Eduardo Zavala, 56.
The couple moved into the house after they married a little more than a year ago, Zavala's father said.
Both of Zavala's parents were home Monday evening when the shootings occurred. Zavala called his mother, Graciela Zavala, just before he apparently shot himself, she said.
He sounded desperate and said, "Mama, I've done something dumb," then hung up, she said.
Zavala's father then went to the adjacent house to check on his son. He found the two children sitting in front of a television in the living room, he said. They told him they hadn't heard anything.
The door to the bedroom was locked. Zavala's father knocked and called for the occupants to open the door, but no one answered, he said.
He took the children out of the house, then heard a single gunshot, he said. His wife called 911, and firefighters and police arrived shortly later.
Zavala's parents and friends on Tuesday were trying to make sense of the tragedy. His mother wept as she sat on her front porch with her husband and several family friends.
"I don't know what happened," she said in Spanish.
Family and friends said the couple appeared to be happy. "Everything was perfect," said Zavala's sister, Gladys Zavala, 24.
Zavala's father said he thinks his son accidentally shot his wife. "What else could it have been?" he said in Spanish. "He didn't run or anything."
A graduate of Santa Clara High School, Zavala was a hardworking man liked by co-workers, said Jose Manuel Ruiz, a friend who once worked with Zavala in a landscaping business. Zavala was working for a chain-link fence company at the time of his death, Ruiz said.
Zavala's wife worked long hours at a local mushroom farm, his father said.
The incident was the Oxnard area's second suspected murder-suicide in less than a week.
On Saturday, the body of Mauricio Cuevas Romero was found in a car in the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area in what authorities called a suicide. The 40-year-old Oxnard man was wanted on suspicion of fatally stabbing his wife, Olga Lidia Dominguez-Simon, 39, and critically injuring his teenage daughter Jan. 14 in the 2300 block of South J Street.

McALESTER —
The McAlester Housing Authority recently found an infestation of Fiddleback spiders in two McAlester homes.
"We had two families with apartments that had Fiddleback infestations," said Executive Director Joy Holloway during the July monthly meeting of the Housing Authority Board.
"First we made sure the spiders were Fiddlebacks," Holloway said. "We gave the tenants sticky traps to catch the spiders." When an exterminator confirmed the spider infestation in the homes were Brown Recluses, the deadly spiders were exterminated. "We paid $160 per unit to have the spider infestation exterminated from the homes," Holloway said.
There were no complaints of tenants being bitten by the spiders and since extermination, there have been no additional complaints regarding the spiders, Holloway said.
Fiddleback spiders, also known as the Brown Recluse or Violin spider, have potentially deadly hemotoxic venom. "The most recognized feature of the Brown Recluse spider is violin pattern on the cephalothorax or in other words the location on the top side of the spider near the head," according to brownreclusespider.com. "Recluse spiders are found in the south from California to Virginia. They've been found as far north as Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio."

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - The winning numbers have been drawn for the $448 million Powerball jackpot.
The numbers drawn Wednesday night were: 05, 25, 30, 58, 59 and Powerball 32.
At the time of the telecast, Powerball officials announced that the jackpot previously pegged at $425 million had grown to an estimated $448 million.
The allure of capturing such a rich jackpot has had players in a ticket-buying frenzy, further confirming Powerball players often don't get into the game until the jackpot offers big bucks.
A recent game change increased the frequency of huge jackpots, and Wednesday's third largest-ever jackpot comes only months after the biggest Powerball jackpot in history - a $590 million pot won in Florida.

There are many aspects of the holidays that we look forward to. The gathering of friends and family can be heartwarming. The giving of gifts, especially for children, is anticipated all year and sitting down to celebrate the season with a table loaded with the Christmas turkey, dressing, gravy and all the trimmings is a great joy to most.
Once the Christmas meal is devoured, however, you're likely to have plenty of leftovers.
Some may view the volume of leftover food a burden, and after the feast you may not want to face that bird again, but there are some recipes that are so good your family will never complain. If you have decided to cook a goose or ham this holiday, the following recipe suggestions will work with them as well.
At the top of the list is a turkey curry served with Thai jasmine rice. Forget the curry powder most Americans seem so fond of, go for the real deal with a Thai-style curry paste. You can make this dish as spicy as you like by adjusting the amount of curry you use. It is made creamy by the coconut milk, or coconut cream you use and the simple tip of simmering the milk until the oil separates makes this Thai-inspired meal even better.
Turkey tacos may seem mundane, but if you fire them up with salsa verde, sliced jalapenos and lots of melted cheese, it becomes a feast. Use yellow corn tortillas, not the wimpy soft flour tortillas that are so popular these days, and when you crisp them in a little olive oil they are good enough to eat by themselves. Top these killer tacos with spicy rhot sauce and no one will complain.
There are lots of good things to do with leftover turkey, and if you make the extra effort a turkey filled shepherd's pie requires, your family will be asking for it again and again. A turkey sandwich, when filled with cheese, avocados or cranberry sauce and grilled like a Panini or under the broiler, will be much in demand.
So don't write off that leftover turkey, debone the bird and store the meat in plastic storage bags until you are ready to wow your family with something special.
One last thought, if your budget is tight, roasted turkey legs can be a real treat, both the first time around and as leftovers. Three can be had for just over $5 and the dark meat is moist and delicious.
1 cup jasmine rice
2 cups turkey meat
1 can coconut milk
1/2 chicken or turkey stock
1-2 tablespoons green curry paste
2 chopped shallots
1 cup cubed potato
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1-2 whole kaffir lime leaves
Add the rice and 2 cups of water to a rice cooker, cover and turn it on. Add the coconut milk to a sauté pan, add the kaffir leaves and simmer until the oil in the milk separates. Add the stock and curry paste, whisk and simmer for 5 minutes. Make sure to taste to see how spicy it is, add additional curry paste if you want more heat and spice. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer for an additional 10 minutes, or until the potato is done. Serve in soup bowls with a scoop of steaming hot rice in each.
2 cups shredded turkey meat
2 yellow corn tortillas per person
1 cup best quality salsa verde
1 cup grated sharp white cheddar cheese
2-4 jalapenos per sandwich
Hot sauce (I prefer Valentina for this dish)
Olive oil
Preheat broiler to high. Toss the turkey meat in several tablespoons of hot sauce. Place a few tablespoons of olive oil in a sauté pan and heat to medium, add the corn tortillas and cook until just starting to take on color. Load each tortilla with the turkey, jalapenos and lots of cheese. Run under the broiler until the cheese is melted. Top with the salsa or hot sauce and serve immediately.
Leftover bones from the turkey
1 quartered onion
2 carrots roughly chopped
1 head of garlic sliced lengthwise
Fresh ground black pepper
2 cups leftover turkey
1 chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 chopped bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped carrot
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup green peas
2 cups leftover mashed potatoes
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine all of the ingredients for the stock and simmer for 1 hour, strain and reserve the stock. Sauté the onions, celery, bell pepper and carrots in a little oil for 6 minutes. Add the thyme and bay leaves and make sure to season aggressively with freshly ground black pepper. Add 2 cups of turkey stock and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the peas and turkey to the mixture, stir well. Spoon in the turkey and vegetables into a large casserole. Remove the bay leafs from the mixture and discard. Add the cheese into the mashed potatoes, mix well. Top the turkey with the mashed potatoes and cover evenly. Bake for 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown. This can be made in individual servings as well.
2 cups leftover turkey
1 cup shredded Emmental or other Swiss cheese
1 whole avocado
Leftover cranberry sauce
Hearty bread, such as rye or multi-grain
Turn the broiler on high. Warm the turkey in a little leftover gravy if there is any. Build the sandwich by layering the warmed turkey and cheese, place under the broiler until bubbly, then remove and top with sliced avocado and cranberry sauce. Serve immediately, this sandwich is not half as good cold.

Amazon leveraged its ample experience managing its own enormous storage installations and rolled out Simple Storage Service (S3), which offers online storage for about $0.15/GB with an additional $0.10/GB transfer fee.
Cloud-based storage is such a fast-growing--and still largely untested--product category that storage managers might want to invoke a Mick Jagger-ism and shout "Get off of my cloud!" But a better approach would be to get up into that cloud and take a good, long look around.
Before the cloud casts its shadow on traditional storage operations, the services will have to prove that they're reliable, can weather the storm of another dot.com downturn and maintain a consistent, predictable level of performance.
But there are compelling reasons to consider these services, especially for companies with strapped IT resources or underserved remote offices. And storage managers will have to get over the security of having their company's data sitting on company-owned big iron. Who wants to tell their CEO that some key data "isn't exactly here right now, but it's somewhere in the cloud"?
There's work to do before many users are likely to hitch their backup or DR wagons to the cloud. It may seem farfetched, but there might be a silver lining for some storage shops.

As it stands, the Calgary Flames are in an interesting predicament. This is something we hear every time the Olympics rears its head - How will it impact the players who play and their specific regular season teams? The reason why I single out the Flames more than anyone else is for two reasons: First, the Flames are the team I am interested in and see the Olympics as a serious threat to the success of the franchise this year. Second, no other team, as it now stands, has the potential to have such an effect on one Olympic team position (defense) as the Flames.
With Jay Bouwmeester and Robyn Regehr as likely starters and Dion Phaneuf a good bet, team Canada could have half of their top 6 defensive group manned by current Calgary Flames. Now, don't get me wrong, Olympic hockey is exciting hockey, I love watching it and certainly cheering the boys in Red and White. My concern is this: injuries and fatigue.
Beginning Monday, Camp Canada is under way. With questions already circulating the internet on the respective health of both Phaneuf and Regehr do Flames fans have reason to be concerned? Add to this, Jay Bouwmeester , Jarome Iginla and, perhaps somewhat less likely, Miikka Kiprusoff as candidates to play some intense mid-season tournament hockey, does the Flames franchise stand the most to lose by participating in the Olympics?
Considering the NHL regular season schedule is interrupted just prior to the stretch drive to the playoffs and the NHL trade deadline, the games following the Olympic break could make for some interesting personnel changes and team health concerns. So, while we all cross our fingers and hope for a good Olympic camp showing by our Flames contingent, lets hope the guys, at the very least, come to our training camp no worse for wear. And let's also hope that luck extends right through to the closing ceremonies. Go team Calgary...er, Canada.

CRICKET: Bowditch and Martin the stars for Minehead seconds

Chasing 245 for victory, Minehead were seen across the line with two balls to spare thanks to some brutal hitting from Brad Martin (63 not).
The victory was set up by Dan Bowditch who made 94 before being caught on the boundary.

"We have discovered that writing allows even a stupid person to seem halfway intelligent, if only that person will write the same thought over and over again, improving it just a little bit each time. It is a lot like inflating a blimp with a bicycle pump. Anybody can do it. All it takes is time." – Kurt Vonnegut, Palm Sunday
This has been one of my favorite quotes of all time. I use it every year when I am teaching anything related to good writing, whether that be poetry, music, essays, research, or memoirs. It reminds me that not only do my students have the incredible capacity to learn and improve, but so do I; we do it together.
This year, I coined a slogan in my building. I'm not sure my colleagues are happy with it, but the kids latched on: School is the right place to be wrong. (Learn from your mistakes.)
As I have evolved as an educator over the past eight years, I've learned to see my students in this light. They are still children and yes, they will make mistakes. Plenty of them. More than I can count! I have finally come to believe that it is a good thing for my students to make mistakes.
They weren't too sure about this idea at first (You want me to be wrong? That's ok? Are you an alien?), but it has changed the culture in my classroom. That took some time. Constant encouragement and a few brave souls to be wrong ALL the time along with seeing my reaction to these mistakes and the way I supported their learning in the classroom has transformed the learning environment. I see them taking greater risks and feeling more confident to speak their minds. What a vast difference from the year before. I can't keep them quiet, and I love it.
Translate this to the writing process and how my teaching has changed. I now accept as many revisions as it takes to hit the mark until the end of the five week marking period. I do believe that students need deadlines and they have them with other assignment. But writing is hard! To improve one's writing is incredibly difficult and can often come with feelings of worthlessness and trepidation when students do not feel successful.
Writing is also personal. How many times have you heard a kid say, "You don't like me, you gave me a C!" I've heard it plenty. They are vested in their accomplishments whether they outwardly show it or not.
To tell a student, "I accept nothing less than your best," and then walk away leaves them hurt and confused. Instead, tell them, "I accept nothing less than your best. Here are ways to improve. Now do it again and again, until you've got it."
Then celebrate the heck out of that success!!!
(I prefer a little song and dance that embarrasses me, but makes them beam. They are in high school and still love their teachers to be a bit silly from time to time.)

The Russia House
Sean Connery, Michelle Pfeiffer, Roy Scheider
Directed by Fred Schepisi
In this laudably ambitious film version of John le Carré's labyrinthine spy novel, Sean Connery and Michelle Pfeiffer attempt to make something sexy of moral rehabilitation. Well, if anybody can do it...Connery plays Barley Blair, a burned-out British book publisher more interested in his next bender than the global balance of power. Pfeiffer is Katya, a Soviet editor willing to risk her life to help her scientist friend Dante (Klaus Maria Brandauer) smuggle his vital notebooks to the West. She turns to Blair, who unexpectedly finds his ardor and his conscience stirred by her commitment to peace. Blair is then exploited by British and American intelligence agents determined to keep the chill on the Cold War, and the hell with glasnost.
Tom Stoppard's screenplay does little to uncomplicate the plot, leaving the skilled director Fred Schepisi (Roxanne, A Cry in the Dark) struggling to charge a herd of bloodless bureaucrats with dramatic life. Despite Ian Baker's stunning photography in Moscow and Leningrad and a keen turn from James Fox, as a Brit spy master, the film often lulls when it means to challenge. It helps that Connery captures the "splendid quiet" that le Carré found in Blair. And Pfeiffer, who gets more subtle and incisive with each film, is incandescent as Katya, the kind of woman to whom a man might say, as Blair does, "You are my only country now." At its best, The Russia House offers a rare and enthralling spectacle: the resurrection of buried hopes.

It was Nov. 15, 1906, when Dry Ridge hosted the birth of the Grant County News. While yet in its infancy, "The News" merged with the Williamstown Courier.

Work is less fun, fun is more work
How many times have we exclaimed, "Had I know then, what I know now...". If you, like me, are in that group of people who have been sufficiently blessed to have survived declining health and other time imposed limitations, if work is a lot less fun, and fun is a lot more work, we are known as senior citizens. We can dwell in regret for what might have been, or accept the fact that it is what it is and focus on the benefits of our longevity.
Kennedy opinion brings response
I read with interest the letter from Ron Kennedy. There's no doubt that he is a liberal who is willing to promote and accept a socialist/Marxist style of government. This is just sad—sad—sad.

Clinical Interests:
My clinical interests are in the treatment of individuals with weight difficulties and aberrant eating, specifically emotional eating and binge eating. These treatments include behavioral weight management, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques as a supplement to behavioral and CBT treatments for weight management and aberrant eating. I am also interested in interventions for individuals presenting with emotional eating or co-morbid mood symptoms.
Research Interests:
Broadly speaking, my research interests are in the associations of mood (e.g., depression, anxiety), individual characteristics (e.g., emotion regulation; impulsivity; mindfulness), and environmental variables (e.g., stress) with aberrant eating and weight-related disorders. I am interested in the implications of these associations for the treatment of aberrant eating and weight difficulties, particularly in treatment refractory and previously overlooked populations. My current work has focused more specifically on the operationalization of emotional eating and its correlates in overweight and obese individuals, and the implications of emotional eating for weight management.
