DETROIT (AP) -- Being a 6-foot-2 cook on a submarine brings certain challenges: There are the bulkheads and cramped quarters, of course -- to move around, you're always tilting your head.
Then there's the havoc all that diving and ascending can do to a cake in the oven.
"Really lopsided," is how CSC (that's for Culinary Specialist Chief) Derrick Davenport describes some of his malformed creations. "You either cut the larger side off and move it or put a lot of icing on the other side to even it out."
Davenport, who grew up on Detroit's east side the son of a city police officer -- himself no slouch in the kitchen -- and a mom who works for the Henry Ford Health System, has a bit more space in which to operate these days.
He's the personal chef (and an enlisted aide to) Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
As such, he spends a lot of time cooking not only for the chairman but invited brass and visiting dignitaries.
A recent menu saw a petite bacon-shallot quiche; mixed greens with a sherry vinaigrette; and stuffed chicken breast with wild mushrooms, Yukon gold potato puree, asparagus and glazed carrots with a port wine reduction. It was finished with a strawberry shortcake and pistachio brittle.
"Low-key, nothing really fancy," Davenport said.
Davenport, 36, a graduate of Schoolcraft College's renowned culinary program, has been piling up the honors lately.
In March 2011, when he was still executive chef for the chairman's dining room in the Pentagon, he managed a team that won Installation of the Year against 27 other military bases.
This year, he won the Armed Forces Enlisted Aide Competition -- a new category in the military's culinary arts face-offs -- in which he had to answer questions, put together his boss' uniform (all those medals need to be in the proper places, spaced with a ruler) and cook a three-course meal for four in 90 minutes.
He also will be the first Navy chef to compete on the Army's Culinary Arts Team -- representing the entire U.S. military -- at the Culinary Olympics in Germany this October.
"Honestly, I really like taking foods I grew up with and kind of upscaling them," he said.
That means refining comfort foods and re-creating desserts. His variation on an upside-down cake features peaches instead of pineapple and is served with buttermilk ice cream and a gelee of peach schnapps.
No one back in Detroit seems very surprised by his success.
"His work was second to none," said Joseph Mucaria Sr., who teaches culinary arts at the Oakland Tech Center and used to work with Davenport both at the Golightly Career and Technical Center, where Davenport taught for a time, and at the Harbor Beach Resort, where Mucaria was general manager and Davenport took charge of the bake shop.
"He was always looking for that next step," Mucaria said.
Joining the Navy, as Davenport did in 2000, isn't the usual next step for a chef -- not by a long shot.
But at Schoolcraft, Davenport -- who graduated from Bethesda Christian High School in Warren -- drank in the stories of some of his master chef teachers who served, and he began to think, after working in Greektown, at the Ritz-Carlton Dearborn and at Golightly, that he wanted to join.
"I don't know if it was my naval experience that inspired him but he always used to ask me questions about the Navy," said Chef Jeff Gabriel, a culinary Olympian himself, certified master chef and Vietnam vet.
It's easy to understand why the stories would stick: Gabriel talks of traveling the Far East, eating sushi at a time when it was practically unknown in the U.S. and tumbling out of bars in Taiwan to find vibrant street food.
He'd tell tales of cutting sides of beef with a band saw and baking bread and doughnuts from scratch.
"It's just something I always wanted to do," he said.
His service has come with its challenges, though. Five years as a cook on the submarine USS Annapolis taught him a whole new way of handling a kitchen.
When it came time to decorate a cake and there were no pastry bags, he used the tied-up lining of a cereal box.
He did a 14-month stint in Afghanistan, helping to train Afghan soldiers, many of whom didn't want to be cooks, how to run a food service.
But he witnessed tragedy, too: the death of one of his cooks and someone he had chitchatted with just before an attack at the base a couple hundred feet from the kitchen.
"I had to work through that," he said.

East Henderson explodes for 18 runs against HHS
Tue. March 06, 2012 at 11:07 p.m. | By From staff reports

East Henderson won its third straight baseball game on Tuesday at The Den, as the Eagle bats came alive for a five-inning, 18-3 win over homestanding Hendersonville.
The Eagles improve to 3-0, while the Bearcats slip to 0-3.
East jumped out to a 9-0 lead after the first inning and was never threatened the rest of the way. Hendersonville was able to put up a couple runs in the third, but the Eagles answered with two more runs to make it 11-2.
East then added seven more in the top of the fourth to enforce the 10-run mercy rule after the Bearcats could only manage a single run in the bottom of the fifth.
"Our guys did a great job hitting today," East coach Jeff Frady said. "We've been stressing to the guys that it's not always about getting hits to score runs, it's about being sacrificial. If it comes down to getting a walk to get a run, the guys understand that."
Leading the way for East was Jonathan Maybin, who was 2-for-4 with a double and three RBIs, Avery Sneed, who was 2-for-3 with three RBIs, and Thomas Waddell, who was 2-for-4 with four runs.
Andrew Case (2-0) got the win after his three innings of work.
Chris Rice led the Bearcat bats, going 2-for-3 with a double and an RBI.
The Eagles were coming off a hard-fought 8-7 win over Asheville on Monday. In that game, East held an 8-0 lead before the Cougars stormed back with seven unanswered runs in the final two innings. On Tuesday, the Eagles didn't allow a comeback.
"I was glad to see the guys finish the game," Frady said.
East returns to action at 4 p.m. today at Enka, while Hendersonville hosts North Henderson on Thursday at The Den.

cubcadet 104
I just bought a cubcadet 104. The guy repainted it but left the engine the way it was. It runs good but the bearings in the deck are going bad. The transmission and breaks are good and the stearing has average play in it. It has good tires and chains. The one thing that I found most interesting is that it has a factory cigarette lighter. I have been told that this is not that rare but I have never seen one before. If I knew how to put pics on I would, I have tried multiple times with no success.

Re: cubcadet 104
I parted out a 105 with cigarette lighter. Cigarette lighters' are listed in the operator's manual. But dash photos in the operator's manual does not show the cigarette lighter.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: cubcadet 104
Yea, I've had a couple of 124s and a 105 that had cigarette lighters. One of them actually worked, but the wires were not hooked up on the others. There was a hole in the dash of the Cadets all the way through the mid 1970s for a lighter.

Re: cubcadet 104
from what I heard the cig lighter is very rare!
Re: cubcadet 104
The correct lighter is what's rare. I don't know if they made more than one style so it's haard to say what is the one that the CORRECT POLICE approve.

Re: cubcadet 104
All my int154's have lighters.
My cc 104 is one of my favorites in the narrow frame series cadets. Mine was parked after a few years of use when the gas went bad. After cleaning her up and getting her fired up again i got a brand new tractor. Its funny how people just give up on these machines.
I'm technically misunderstood at times i guess its been this way my whole life so why should it change now.
Re: cubcadet 104
Here is a picture of Ray's (48cub) 104. Overall it is a good tractor and is hte best looking of the three Cub Cadets that we own currently. It even has the best seat lol.

Cigarette Lighters on ANY equipment is beginning to be sort of rare now! I guess when you are a smoker, you just can't go an hour without lighting up or just can't use your regular lighter in the wind while the tractor is moving...
I am an ex-smoker, so I guess I can relate!!

It's finally here. Brand-spanking new Charlotte Hornets gear. The apparel goes on sale Saturday at the team store at Time Warner Cable Arena.
Super fan Scotty Kent can't wait to get his hands on the new apparel.
"I'm ready to stop wearing the old logo and start wearing the new," he said.
Decked out in vintage Hornets gear -- from his hat to his T-shirt down to the purple and teal sneakers -- the co-founder of the grassroots campaign, Brink Back the Buzz says this unveiling is a big moment for fans.
"It's kind of the rejuvenation of Hornets nation," said Kent. It's a rebuilding of the city's support for this team."
Support he has been instrumental in galvanizing since the campaign to bring back the Hornets name first started in 2010. Kent just hopes the store is ready for the demand.
"I hope they're anticipating what we're anticipating based off the feedback we're getting from our followers, it's going to go right away," he said. "This thing is gonna be sold out."
Dave Cromar who runs the team store says the demand for the old logo was big.
"We'd open a box, put it on the shelf and it would be gone the next day," he recalled.
So he is certain even more fans will be clamoring for the new stuff and added, "we've been waiting for this day."
So have fans like Kent who say the new apparel is just the beginning.
"This city is on their heels, you know on the edge of their seats, waiting for a good franchise to support."
Season ticket holders will get first dibs on the merchandise. The team store will open at 3 p.m. Saturday for them. It opens to the general public at 6:30 p.m.
It will also be open on Sunday -- special hours -- from noon to 5 p.m.

Less Sleep, Disrupted Internal 24-Hour Clock Means Higher Risk of Diabetes and Obesity
A study by researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital reinforces the finding that too little sleep or sleep patterns that are inconsistent with our body's 'internal biological clock' may lead to increased risk of diabetes and obesity
A study by researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) reinforces the finding that too little sleep or sleep patterns that are inconsistent with our body's "internal biological clock" may lead to increased risk of diabetes and obesity. This finding has been seen in short-term lab studies and when observing human subjects via epidemiological studies. However, unlike epidemiological studies, this new study provides support by examining humans in a controlled lab environment over a prolonged period, and altering the timing of sleep, mimicking shift work or recurrent jet lag.
The study was electronically published on April 11, 2012 in Science Translational Medicine .
Researchers hosted 21 healthy participants in a completely controlled environment for nearly six weeks. The researchers controlled how many hours of sleep participants got, as well as when they slept, and other factors such as activities and diet. Participants started with getting optimal sleep (approximately 10 hours per night). This was followed by three weeks of 5.6 hours of sleep per 24-hour period and with sleep occurring at all times of day and night, thereby simulating the schedule of rotating shift workers. Thus, during this period, there were many days when participants were trying to sleep at unusual times within their internal circadian cycle—the body's "internal biological clock" that regulates sleep-wake and many other processes within our bodies. The study closed with the participants having nine nights of recovery sleep at the usual time.
The researchers saw that prolonged sleep restriction with simultaneous circadian disruption decreased the participants' resting metabolic rate. Moreover, during this period, glucose concentrations in the blood increased after meals, because of poor insulin secretion by the pancreas.
According to the researchers, a decreased resting metabolic rate could translate into a yearly weight gain of over 10 pounds if diet and activity are unchanged. Increased glucose concentration and poor insulin secretion could lead to an increased risk

Ray Cresson, the photographer and former K&B Camera Center manager, whose photographs documented all aspects of New Orleans culture, from Carnival to celebrities at the Blue Room, died Friday. He was 92.
One of Mr. Cresson's 1947 Mardi Gras photographs has been reproduced countless times and stands as an iconic glimpse of Carnival in the 1940s. It shows two masked revelers on Canal St., seemingly oblivious to the newspaper headline being displayed in the hands of two other revelers – "Rex Rules Today."
"Everything's captured in that picture, that one picture," Mr. Cresson said of his famous photo, in a 2005 interview with WWL-TV's Frank Davis.
"That's a good picture," Mr. Cresson said quietly and humbly.
It was one of the thousands of photographs Mr. Cresson snapped of Carnival on Canal St. during the 1940s, 50s and 60s.
In the 2005 profile, Cresson told Davis he first began dabbling in photography in 1938. Interrupted by World War II, his career would include more than 50 years as manager of the K&B Camera Center on Canal St. The store was a favorite of budding photographers, and known for offering all manner of camera and photo supplies, as well as photo developing.
Mr. Cresson would also become the official photographer for the nearby Roosevelt Hotel. His job there put him in contact with hundreds of celebrities who stayed at the hotel and performed in the famed Blue Room supper club. His photographs formed an invaluable archive of New Orleans nightlife at the time.
One of Mr. Cresson's two brothers, Russell Cresson, was also a staff photographer at Loyola University for many years.
Mr. Cresson is survived by three children, eight grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.
A funeral Mass will be said Tuesday, Jan. 11 at 2 p.m. at Lake Lawn Metairie Funeral Home, 5100 Pontchartrain Blvd. Visitation will be from noon until service time.

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Jury deliberations began Wednesday in the retrial of a drifter accused of fatally stabbing a 12-year-old girl in her Escondido home nearly 16 years ago.
Richard Tuite, 44, was convicted in 2004 of voluntary manslaughter in the 1998 death of Stephanie Crowe, but a federal appeals court reversed the conviction in 2011, saying Tuite didn't get a fair trial because a judge limited cross-examination of a prosecution witness.
In her opening statement of the retrial, Deputy Attorney General Alana Butler said Tuite was in the area of the Crowe home the night Stephanie Crowe was killed, Jan. 20, 1998. Investigators later found the victim's blood on Tuite's shirt and the defendant had items in his pockets from inside the Crowe residence when he was stopped and questioned the next day, Butler said.
Butler said Tuite exhibited "obsessive, delusional and rage-filled behavior" the night of the killing, knocking on doors at homes near the victim's house looking for a friend named "Tracy."
The prosecutor noted that investigators focused on Stephanie Crowe's brother, Michael, believing he was jealous of his high-achieving sister. Eventually, Michael Crowe and his then-15-year-old friends, Joshua Treadway and Aaron Houser, were charged with murder.
The District Attorney's Office later dropped all charges against the boys just before trial when Stephanie's blood was found on a red shirt Tuite was wearing the night of the killing and a white shirt he had on underneath. A judge ruled that so-called confessions from the boys were coerced by Escondido police and an assisting Oceanside officer under harsh interrogation tactics
Defense attorney Brad Patton said Tuite was not aggressive toward neighbors the night of the killing, and no one saw him with a weapon. Patton said Michael Crowe was isolated, played violent video games and was jealous of his sister Stephanie.
The defense attorney said investigators at the crime scene failed to wear booties as they walked through the crime scene and could have contaminated evidence by transferring blood onto Tuite's shirts.

MOOERS — Charles Drown was a farm boy living in rural Ellenburg Depot when he was invited to attend a birthday party, something he didn't do very often.
Eva Nephew thought her sister's birthday party would be just cake and family time. When Charles arrived, he saw Eva, asked who she was and said "I'm going to marry her." So began a friendship, courtship and eventual marriage that has lasted nearly 72 years.
"We lived just five miles from each other but never knew the other existed," said Eva. "We didn't go many places back then."
Eva is the 12th of 18 children born to Albert and Emma Rock Nephew. Fourteen children survived.
"My mother worked so hard," she remembers. "We all helped. I had to bake a cake every day when I got home from school. We didn't buy much. It was all homemade."
Eva started school at the one-room Bush schoolhouse. She spoke only French. The teacher spoke only English. She learned quickly by listening to every lesson and moved up two years at a time. She started higher-learning classes at 11 because she was so advanced.
She and her siblings walked seven miles to the church in Mooers Forks, barefoot in the summer because their hand-me-down shoes left blisters.
"When we'd see the church, we'd put our shoes on and take them off again on the walk home," she added.
She wanted to be a school teacher but quit school at 16 and worked for the Harnett family in Altona to help with expenses at home. The Hartnetts had boarders, and Eva did huge loads of laundry and ironing.
Charles lived through his own hardships. His mother died when he was 9. He didn't have a good relationship with his stepmother. He attended Fernwood, a one-room schoolhouse near Cannon's Corners, but went to high school for just one day.

Since you are still viewing this thread I'll make it short:
I guess that you are facing a swarm side problem (=poor swarm speed), and not a problem on your side. But to be sure:
Which firewall are you using?
Which router are you using?
Which BT client are you using?
Do you get a decent speed when downloading good seeded torrents (Naruto)?

Parents in the Triangle watching their high school football athletes play every Friday night can rest a little easier knowing Duke Medicine offers a clinic specifically for Friday night injuries.
Duke Sports Medicine offers a Friday Night Injury Clinic to better serve the football players from all high schools that are involved in the Sports Medicine Outreach Program.
Kella Kinsey is the mother of a Cary High quarterback and said he's been hurt many times and often worries about her athlete.
"Anything can happen on the field," Kinsey said. "As a parent, you worry every time your kid's on the field that something can happen."
Injuries are all-too-common on the field, which is why Dr. Tracy Ray, medical director with Duke's Friday Night Injury Clinic, started the special program, collaborating with nine other high schools in the Triangle.
"We're going to get you in the right brace, we're going to push for the right therapy, we're going to hook you up with a surgical scheduler and get you in with an orthopedic surgeon," Ray explained.
He said injuries that happen on the field need specialized care an ER doctor wouldn't necessarily be able to provide.
"The overwhelming majority of sports injuries are actually better handled by somebody who is fully trained in orthopedics and in sports medicine," Ray said.
Because the program is so new, not many people know about it yet.
Eileen joined WNCN after years of working as a foreign correspondent. During her time off, she enjoys relaxing with her dogs, reading, and exploring the Triangle. More>>

In detail: Lincolnshire election results breakdown
A detailed breakdown of the election results in Lincolnshire. The Tories lost overall control and UKIP made big gains.
A detailed breakdown of the election results in Lincolnshire. The Tories lost overall control and UKIP made big gains.
The Conservatives have lost control of two English local authorities as the UK Independence Party (Ukip) made stunning electoral gains.
Local elections are taking place today across the region
Politics expert Dr Pete Woodcock from Huddersfield University talks about the impact of the local election results.
There has been an upsurge in support for the UK Independence Party in Lincolnshire which means the Conservatives have lost control of the County Council
As former councillors lick their wounds and reflect on their losses, UKIP announced it had sent a "shockwave" through the establishment with its tally of seats and share of the vote.
Although Nigel Farage's party upset the apple cart in Lincolnshire, their policies however didn't sway voters in North Yorkshire, and in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Labour now have control.
Voters were also being asked to elect a Mayor in Doncaster - and there'll be a new face at the town hall.
Labour have gained control of Nottinghamshire after the County Council elections.
Labour gained 18 seats, while Conservatives lost 14, Independents lost one and UKIP also lost one.
Conservatives took the majority in North Yorkshire.
John "Eddy" Poll, who was the Deputy Leader of Lincolnshire County Council until the elections
Derbyshire County Council's results are all in - with one more seat going to Labour, which makes it 43 seats for Labour, 18 for Conservatives and 3 for Liberal Democrats.
A Conservative leader has admitted a local authority coalition with the UK Independence Party (UKIP) would be difficult as he knows very little about its new councillors.
UKIP secured 16 of the 77 seats on Lincolnshire County Council, having previously held none.
The Tories fell three seats short of retaining overall control of the authority after losing 25 divisions to leave them with 36 of the 77 available.
– Martin Hill, Conservative group leader
"The trouble with UKIP is they are all new councillors.
"If we are going to work with people, we need to know what they are about and where they are coming from.
"I am not ruling it out but it seems difficult to get through those problems.
"I think David Cameron and the Coalition have got to show more that they are not just taking rural and suburban areas for granted."

Fugitive Brighton hawk lured home
5:10am Thursday 6th February 2014 in News
A pet hawk has returned to his home in Brighton three days after taking flight.
Bird, a three-year-old Harris hawk, escaped when owner Sue Davis, of Stephens Road, Hollingdean, took him into her garden.
He was sighted by neighbours several times over the next three days, but he was finally re-captured after following his owner's van back home.
"I had to fish for him," said Miss Davis, who had to put a chick on a long line and lure the bird in.
The operation last month took two hours and she was assisted by her daughters Tamara, 22, and Miya, 15.
Ms Craig said: "The storms wrecked their housing so we now have to keep them inside, so when I take them out they get a little excited.
"We are so glad to have had him back before more storms came in."
Miss Davis has kept birds of prey since she was a child. Bird is part of the hawk displays run by Ms Craig at local schools and charity events.

If these birds were 'liberated' as you seem to want, they could legally be shot and destroyed. Any non native bird or hybrid has any animal rights to the British fauna unless being flown for falconry or display work. All bird should have a transmitter fitted when being flown free; this shows the authorities that we as falconers/austringer
These birds should be in the wild not kept in a house. No wonder it gets excited when it goes out in the garden, it should be outside all the time.

s are doing everything we can should the bird go awol.
Do you have any pets? dog, cat.............budg
ie. What is the difference whether it be a bird of prey or a cat or dog. Dogs are by nature pack animals, so keeping 1 on its own is more harmful than people with birds. I could go to a vet should any of my birds need treatment and tell them what the weight of the bird is, its condition and probably what's wrong with it. Genealpet owners couldn't!!

They're extremely effective at stopping pigeons and seagulls ruining expensive buildings and rooftops and achieve that just by being regularly seen. The industrial estate where I work has 2 waste transfer stations which attracts seagulls on a grand scale. There's a very interesting guy who turns up every so often and flies his Harris around to scare them off. They've got one at the Amex too, stops people having to sit in pigeon poo.

Oak Forest's Tevin Coleman is well known on the college football recruiting circuit. He talks about his dream, that of one day playing in the NFL.
He is just now starting to gain a bit of notoriety in his second sport, track.
Coleman, a junior, placed second in the long jump event at the Class 2A boys state meet on Saturday at O'Brien Stadium in Charleston. His best leap was 23-0 1/4. Torre Harrell of Bloomington won the event with a mark of 23-3 1/2.
Coleman also blazed to a fourth-place finish in the 100-meter dash, flashing the kind of sprinter's speed that will serve him well on the football field. He was clocked in 10.86 seconds. DeVantre Whitelow of Centralia won the event with a time of 10.63.
Coleman scored 14 points and grabbed two state medals. He led Oak Forest to a tie for 23rd in the team standings. Cahokia ran away with the Class 2A state championship with 62 points.

A very insecure start with a pretty desperate stab to a good pocket gets things going on this aesthetic arete. Two more crux sections await, and there's a spicy runout before the last bolt once the real business is behind you. Be sure to save some gas for the last move though.

A stick clip is absolutely required. Nobody in their right mind would try to climb through the lower crux before the first bolt without it pre-clipped.

Hospital staff will have to wash their own scrubs
5:00pm Monday 11th February 2013 in News By Hannah White
HOSPITAL staff will have to wash their soiled scrubs at home as part of plans to upgrade the quality of their uniforms.
Staff at Salisbury District Hospital will be given better quality scrubs but as they are more expensive, nurses, midwives and ward staff will need to launder them, saving the cost of cleaning them in the hospital's own laundry.
The new scrubs will come in three different colours, according to the role and seniority of staff, and they are expected to be in place later this year. Staff have raised concerns about the spread of infection, and staff unions have this week voiced their worries over the impact on staff.
Mark Wareham, speaking on behalf of the joint Staff Side unions, said they are concerned about the "extra burden upon staff" who will face the costs of cleaning their uniforms.
"Whilst we accept that many employees wanted to take on these duties, and feel able to cope with the additional burden," he said. "We are concerned for the impact on the low paid, mainly female worker who will be most detrimentally affected by this change," he said.
"There is little good news in this proposal for them other than a possibility of some tax relief, and the hospital may be able to assist them with purchasing new washing machines."
He added: "This comes at a time when NHS staff are facing year on year real cuts in their standard of living as a result of government austerity measures and with the trust continuing to pose the threat of imposing even worse pay and conditions on staff through their membership of the south west pay cartel."
Fiona Hyett, deputy director of nursing, said the decision is based on feedback from patients and staff, who expressed a preference for better quality scrubs.
She said: "Before the implementation of scrub suits in 2006, uniforms would have been cleaned at home and this remains the case in the vast majority of other hospitals across the country without creating a risk of spreading infection and compromising infection control procedures."
Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust will now carry out a formal tendering exercise to choose a company and uniforms, with staff being fully involved in the process.

Sorry this is a step to far, or are they next goign to insist Surgeons take their instruments home to wash!

LesleyWaller says...
It can be kept down if all hospital staff adhere to good hygiene measures including the cleaning of bedding, regular cleaning of wards, etc.
Surely this must also apply to staff uniforms?
I agree with Yer Tis this is a step too far.
Lets keep Salisbury Hospital safe.

What they really mean is they can't afford to have the NEW EXPENSIVE uniforms damaged with bleach as is the case with the current arrangements ;)

Surely basic hospital hygiene, on a par with cleaning wards and lavatories, would ensure that clothing worn by staff when treating or attending to patients in a hospital environment would be cleaned regularly to a high standard.
Who will check up on how regularly these scrubs are washed if taken home? Will that be 'self regulation' which inevitably becomes a part of a target with a box to be ticked by an administrator.
Salisbury Trust is making a complete fool of itself by implementing such a retrograde and idiotic proposal.

Why The Lion MUST Lay With The Lamb
I'd like to share with you one of the many strange rituals I participate in when I'm feeling confused, ungrounded, lost… or just in need of mental / spiritual clarity.
If you've been watching my videos long enough, you understand what I mean when I say "Your Mind IS Your Body."
It has been my experience that through deep breathing and exercise, specifically exercises that elicit spontaneous movement in the body, we might be able to transcend the limitations of the ego and reach deep into our unconscious where there may be valuable pearls of wisdom laying for us to discover.
It has been through my practice of various forms of "body meditation" that I've come into contact with a powerful, non-linear intelligence that I believe guides my steps, weather I acknowledge it – or not.
These meditations, which include Bioenergetics and Yoga, remove the barrier of ego by helping the consciously-controlled striated muscular system to move into deep relaxation, while allowing the spontaneous activity of the visceral system (or autonomic nervous system) to move into my conscious awareness.
I have learned to trust that the spontaneous symbols or words that come to my attention while I'm in deep muscular relaxation arise from this powerful unconscious intelligence.
When you watch my videos, especially the ones on my Elliott Hulse channel, often times you are watching the movement of this intelligence trough me.
Because I meditate before making the videos, and I focus on deep breathing before, during (you'll notice I stop and open my mouth to let out a big sigh every so often) and in between making videos, "I" Elliott Hulse, my ego, has been dropped and whatever comes out of my mouth I can not take full credit for. (Although this is not always the case, its what I strive for in most cases)
Of course, the things that proceed from my mouth are influenced by my experiences, circumstances and physical features… just like the size, shape and condition of a flute influence the music that the musician makes though it. But the flute makes its music only by the skill, creativity and intelligence of the musician.
The musician breathes into (or inspires) the flute which brings music, in the same way that God inspires (or breathes into) us to make music, the music of our lives.
The point of my sharing this with you is not to prove anything or convince you to follow my ways. I share this only so that you might gain some insight as to how I make choices and navigate my life. All of the most important decisions I've made over the past 10 years have come by the processes which put me into closer contact with the language of my heart, my gut and The Holy Spirit.
I trust my feelings because I am deeply in touch with them.
I also trust the linear powers of my logic and analytical skills in recognizing patterns and deciphering symbols. Often I will get a feeling about a thing, then I use my analysis of a symbol or pattern to help me understand what I was feeling. For me, this has been a winning approach.
If I can make sense of what I am feeling, then I am satisfied and I simply move on.
If I can not make sense of a thing, I will attempt to go into deeper meditation and look for words or symbols that my unconscious intelligence wants me to receive.
And THAT is how this picture, from a set of tarot cards, made it's way into my consciousness last week.
Although it may come as a shock to some of you, Elliott Hulse is NOT always "above it all."
My ego (or exterior), can be fragile, just like anyone else's. There are times when my exterior is attacked and it pierces straight though to my heart, like a sword through a chest plate.
When a blind sighted ego-attack touches me deeply I have stop and ask myself, "What am I not seeing clearly about this situation?" or "What is the deeper pain that is being stimulated by this attack?".
Like I've said in some of my videos… "when someone attacks you, it is best to take responsibility and ask yourself how you might be creating this."
So, without going into details… late last week I received a blow that penetrated into my heart.
My heart felt broken.
An attack that does not penetrate deep to the heart can be easily brushed off or logically explained away. But an attack that you FEEL IN YOUR BODY reaches the deep non-linear intelligence of your visceral system as I described above.
When a feeling is visceral (in your organs and peripheral nervous system), it is SERIOUS. Not because of the content of the attack or circumstances, but because anything that touches you that deeply has the capacity to change your mood and ultimately your character. A broken heart will show up in your body, on your face, and be reflected back through the faces in your environment.
Feeling are serious, and should be recognized for their alchemical powers. Always consider the deep psychological and spiritual implications of your feelings.
Again, DO NOT become entangled with the circumstances which created the feeling (ie. someone yells at you). Instead, go deep and try to discover why YOU have chosen to feel this way. The feeling belongs to YOU, so don't blame anyone else. And be sure to explore yourself, as objectively as possible, before offering a counter attack or defending yourself in any way (unless there is a gun to your head, then fuck him up!).
In exploring my broken heart last week the symbol of a lion shackled to sheep came to mind. I've seen this picture before and it seemed to explain what I was feeling, so I went looking for it.
Now that I had something that symbolized my feelings I needed to "go deep" and discover the roots of my pain.
On the surface I felt like a lion, a powerful king who happened to be laying with a herd of soft, weak, cowardly, lamb who've provoked me. On the surface, I knew that a counter-attack upon the sheep I'm bound to would be a murderous bloodbath. I have the strength and the hunger to devour them all, and leave the meat I did not eat rot for the parasites and lay prey for the hyenas!
But again, this was all on the surface. My instant reaction is too ego centered. Just because you can devour the herd, doesn't mean you should. In fact, I am going to show you why THE LION NEEDS THE LAMBS.
So, with this symbol in hand I did two things.
First, I wanted to get you (my viewers / readers) involved. I wanted to see what kind of insights I might receive back from the "mirror of my external world". I put it out there to see what you might show me.
Then, I went into an hour long dynamic meditation where I shook my body and danced for over 40 minutes, followed by a 20 minute silent pause and deep relaxation.
As expected, I gained powerfully vivid insights into the realities of life… my life.
My mind took me though a series of physical polar opposites, such as condensation (rain) and evaporation; inhalation and exhalation; and the systole & diastole pressures of the heart.
I began to experience the feeling of gratitude that comes with exhalation after a long inhalation, or holding of the breath.
I began to feel the reality that although they may appear to be complete opposites, The Lion and The Lamb are a UNITY just like crest and trough of a frequency wave.
About midway though my meditative dance I yelled out with joy, "The Lion Shall Lay With The Lamb". I continued to say this mantra out loud while continuing my joyful dance of reconciliation.
The implications of such a statement go far beyond the image of a fierce lion laying with a flock of mild lambs. It goes even further than the polar temperaments of a strong and powerful lion and the weak and mild sheep.
This statement dives deep into the heart of a PRINCIPLE for living a successful life.
Because in this case I am the lion (there are cases where I am the sheep also, not this time though), I am going to proceed with insights gained in order that they might help the lion better cope with his INEVITABLE circumstances.
1. I say "inevitable circumstances" because the lion will ALWAYS have to confront the lamb. They are as inseparable as night from day, or up from down. The coin is always two sided, and there is a spot for the lamb just as much as there is a spot for the lion.
2. The lion might choose to destroy the flock due to an infraction by a rogue clique within, but then he looses the majority who mean him no harm. He will also cause fear and confusion amongst the surviving lamb, and in their fear they may choose to pasture elsewhere leaving him without balance.
3. If the lion thinks himself "too strong" to be concerned with the opinions or going-ons of the lamb he may choose to ignore them completely. To ignore them is to check out of the relationship which in some cases might create imbalance. The lion requires the sacrificial lamb for his nourishment.
And although they might be ignorant of the fact, the sheep also need the lion for his example of strength, honor, dignity and for their protection against more sinister creatures. In fact, the lamb can become so brash and arrogant that he forgets how the lion has protected him and begins to think of himself as a lion.
I believe that this example is the most hurtful to the lion's heart, especially if he is not aware enough to rise above the details and circumstances.
4. The lion must ALWAYS initiate. He must take the lead. This is not a judgment against the lamb, or in favor of the lion's power, it's just a statement of reality. The lion moves first, the lamb follows the lead. If you know yourself to be a lion, you have no choice but to take decisive action.
Often when you take action, the lamb will defend himself with lies, or simply run and hide. But that is what lambs do, they have a responsibility to protect themselves also. The lion must recognize that this is simply the character of the lamb, to expect something else is like expecting the sun to appear at midnight.
5. Learn to appreciate the lamb. Although they may feel like a heavy burden to carry, they are an intricate part of what makes you a lion. Without the sacrifice of the lambs life, the lion would die of starvation. Even if they can not receive it, due to an overly inflated ego which creates blind spots and blockages in their character, offer them your gratitude.
Remember, it is NEVER about the other person or the circumstances. The moment comes into it's full power when you take full responsibility for your thoughts, feelings and actions.
And finally, when I posed the picture above to my Instagram account I told you that I'd be awarding a prize to the person with the best caption. Here is the one I chose:
"Become Friends With Your Food"
As soon as I read this line, I felt it in my body! So, it was right.

We strive to be a dynamic school that honors the diversity of our staff, students, and families. We offer specials and extracurricular activities that include: art, music, ballet, yoga, spanish language lessons, and piano lessons. It is our goal to meet the needs of every child enrolled in our school.
Mission Statement
Our mission as a school is to unite educators and families in a mutual commitment to nurturing the potential of our children and community. We commit to the joy of learning from our children, each other and our environment. We will continue to pursue the discovery of excellence in each child by creating and renewing a space for children to grow, learn and discover their own true nature.

We commit to ensuring that our school will thrive and prosper for future generations to benefit from the heartfelt passion that embodies our mission. Our belief in Montessori education is the foundation of this school and the philosophy that will guide us as we strive to achieve our mission and fulfill our commitments.
We, at the Montessori Academy of Colorado, believe that educational excellence is the only choice. We invite you to visit our school and become educated about our philosophy, vision, programs, and, of course, actual practices in the classroom.
Founded in 2002, The Montessori Academy of Colorado (MAC) offers programs for children from 8 weeks through 6 years old. MAC is a non-sectarian, non-discriminatory school relative to race, color, sex, religion, national/ethnic origin or family makeup and is a non-profit organization. Our goal is to provide an educational environment that serves the whole child, where he/she can grow intellectually, emotionally, socially, and physically, and our curriculum is designed on a continuum of developmental education that follows each individual child. Our educational philosophy follows the Montessori Method of education, but is constantly expanded through further studies and research in education.
The Montessori Method of education is named after its founder, Dr. Maria Montessori (1870-1952). By working with, and scientifically observing children, she brought about a new form of education. She respected each child as an individual with unlimited potential and provided an environment that allowed the natural unfolding and education of that child within the limits of respect for oneself, the environment and others. The Montessori environment is specifically designed around an individual's distinct learning style, allowing him/her to progress at his/her own pace, with guidance and support from teachers. It is important to note that Montessori education is a guiding philosophy that incorporates many different curricula. This allows specific curriculum guidelines to be developed for each individual's distinct needs.

MASSAPEQUA, N.Y. (AP) - Long Island Rail Road's largest union has unanimously voted to strike, with a walkout possible as soon as March.
Members of two locals that make up the Sheet Metal, Air and Transportation Union cast their votes Wednesday.
A labor stoppage could come on March 21 unless a contract agreement is reached or the MTA asks the White House to intervene with a second Presidential Emergency Board.
Newsday says the request for the second board would put off the strike until July at the earliest.
The MTA rejected the first board's recommendations. The agency says it remains hopeful an agreement can be reached.
Smaller LIRR unions have approved similar votes to walk off the job.
LIRR unions have been without a contract since 2010.
The railroad carries 300,000 daily commuters.

When Manchester United and Manchester City were dropped into the UEFA Europa League, they were instantly dubbed the favorites to win the competition. Though both teams were able to get through the first knockout round, they were stuffed in the Round of 16. The three remaining Spanish clubs are now the big favorites, but everyone remaining is strong and very capable of winning the competition.
The entire draw for the rest of the competition will be determined on Friday, with UEFA General Secretary Gianni Infantino conducting the draw shortly after the UEFA Champions League draw. At this point in the competition, teams from the same country can be drawn together and there are no seeds.
The remaining teams are:
Atletico Madrid (La Liga)
Athletic Bilbao (La Liga)
Valencia (La Liga)
Schalke 04 (Bundesliga)
Hannover 96 (Bundesliga)
Sporting Lisbon (Portuguese Liga)
Metalist Kharkiv (Ukranian Premier League)
AZ Alkmaar (Eredivisie)
The draw will be conducted at 1:00 p.m. CET, which is 8:00 a.m. ET, as this is the odd time of year when North America adjusts their clocks before Europe. You can catch the draw streaming live on UEFA.com.
