Asia is the biggest continent on Earth, a darling little gem floating around in space.
Hm, what is Asia? Who's in on it?
China and India are safe bets for Asian nations. Korea, Japan, Thailand, you're fine.
Europe? No. Europe would sort of be on the "Asian continent" if not for those pesky Ural mountains dividing things up in the middle, and then also the whole lineage of kings and wealth and nations and the EU and all that "give me my respect" stuff.
Russia would probably be happiest as its own continent, so for now we'll leave it in "Eurasia" and just hope the natural gas supplies keep flowing.
Pakistan and Afghanistan are dang close to Asia, but politically they show up in "Middle East" news stories an awful lot. Verdict: Eurasia.
I guess we'll actually have to consider everything from Turkey on eastward to be "Eurasian", although the moniker seems overlappitory of the territory.
The Asian economy is now officially raging like a wild furnace of lava that consumes everything in its path. Japan has had the largest individual economy in Asia for decades, but it is forecast that both India and China will outstrip Japan within twenty years.
China is the largest holder of United States debt and is positioned to become the world's next superpower, provided that Godzilla doesn't return and decide to stomp everybody back into the Shang Dynasty.

Karlsruhe Business Masters Challenge 2009: Part II
This weeks blog is Part II from last weeks blog where I told you about seizing an opportunity and against odds making it into a reality, namely entering the Karlsruhe Business Masters Challenge 2009.
To our delight a number of weeks later we received an invitation to the Karlsruhe Business Masters Case Competition Final in November 2009, along with eight other teams from across the globe. The international flavor of the competition was set with a team from Finland, Denmark, China, USA, India and four German teams. The competition was to last three and half days, and no one was quite sure what we would be asked to do during those days. There was respectable prize money and prestige to be competed for. We were put up in an extremely comfortable 4 star hotel and were wined and dined on the first evening. Fun was had by all, but the anxiety level rose slowly too as we had no idea what kind of case we were going to be given the following morning to solve. Settling down to sleep I closely browsed through the itinerary for the next couple of days and realized that, goodness gracious me, we had a mere 24 hours to solve the case! Certainly a well-constructed pressured situation indeed.ööö The following day we had the case debriefing; we were to choose a mega-city and solve one of the citys problems in the areas of energy or transportation. Our solution again was to take the form of a business plan with all the relevant financial statistics, marketing plan, sustainable essence, feasible realization and uniquenessincluding a presentation of our conclusions. WOW!
Our team was given a room and all the necessary stationery to work on a solution. After much discussion we finally settled on an idea and worked on it at an intense pace until 3:30 am. After a couple of hours sleep we were back up and racing to meet the deadline with our presentation. Shortly before lunch we had to submit our presentations to the coordinators of the competition and pick up the presentation slots list. Low and behold we had been given the first slot to present our solution to the panel of judges. After a mere 45 minutes of practicing our presentation and grabbing a quick lunch, we lined up in front of a panel of five judges. The pressure was certainly there; all credit must be given to my team as we presented well and convincingly.
And then we had to wait and wait
In next weeks blog I will tell you what happened

The Portland Institute for Contemporary Arts (PICA) needed a temporary theatre for its second annual international arts festival — Time-Based Art — last fall, so it called upon BOORA Architects, who could spend no more than $10,000, plus the theatre was to be housed in an empty warehouse.
While the budget and the locale were both challenges, Michael Tingley, principal in charge and lead architect, BOORA, says that the builders were not exactly skilled labor; they were local volunteers pitching in. "It changed the process of how we worked," he explains. "Rather than producing a set of drawings and thinking through every detail, we had the scaffolding framework installed and created a couple of mockups ourselves from the kit of materials that the volunteers could work from."
That kit of materials Tingley mentions included 200 five-gallon plastic buckets, 70 half-inch MDF boards, Visqueen plastic membrane, and 200 recycled carpet tiles. The buckets were purchased from Home Depot with the understanding that they would be returned after the festival. PARR Lumber donated the MDF boards, Interface Flooring donated the carpet tiles, R & H Construction donated professional labor to build-out the space, and eight volunteers from BOORA donated their time to create the Machineworks Theater in a vacant warehouse loaned to PICA by Machineworks, LLC.
The buckets were the base of audience seating in the 200-seat theatre, and Tingley marvels at how they well they worked in the project. "Since we understood the technical and dimensional requirements of a theatre in terms of audience comfort and seating height, we were able to take these pieces and make something that had the right dimensions to it for the seating foundation," he says. The seating platforms were secured on top of the buckets and then covered with the carpet samples thus creating a comfortable theatre for performers and audiences alike.
While audiences were delighted by the novelty of the one-off theatre, the performers found that the venue was exactly what they needed, especially considering that some of the performances could be considered "experimental." For instance, a dance group wanted to perform one night in a shallow pool of water and the next night in a massive bed of flour. "Not many official theatres wanted to take the risk and challenges of clean up," Tingley says.
To overcome the vastness of the warehouse, the design team used one bay of the building's structural system for the stage, allowing the four steel columns defining it to frame the stage. Volunteers used an overhead crane that was left in the space to rig the theatrical lighting. Designers separated the remaining space within the warehouse by a long scaffold wall faced with pegboard and Visqueen plastic. Since the wall's interior was built of scaffolding, it provided an ideal location for technical equipment, transformers, cabling, and even an elevated control room. The remainder of the warehouse space was used for the TBA Festival's after-hours programming, including a cabaret stage, a bar, and café.
Since the theatre has been disassembled, BOORA Architects has received a number of awards for the project including an Honor Award and a Juror's Choice Award from the International Interior Design Association, a Merit Award and the People's Choice Award from the American Institute of Architects, and an Honor Award from USITT.

"About seven years ago I found some gay porn links on my husband's computer. No straight porn. I confronted him and we fought and cried. He apologized and denied that he was gay. I have tried to let it go because he is a good person and a great father, but I keep thinking that maybe he is hiding something. I don't feel like I can suggest counseling without him being mortified and hurt that I have been harboring resentment."
Do you think this confession is a big deal?

I understand what you are going through, my mans choice is transsexual porn. I am at the point that I am going to leave. I don't bye the Bi-Curious, it is strange to be in a marriage with someone who would prefer to have only anal sex with you and if he could ignore the parts of you that make you female. I don't know how your sex life is but if you are still worried about it after seven years something isn't working.

If the fact that he is 'a good person and a great father' isn't more important than what he wanks to, then you need to think about who has the problem. I totally agree and Janine comment is based on nothing but a guess of a situation she doesn't know anything about. I sugguest talk to your husband in a helpful matter. You both need to just open up more.

My views may be a bit different. Enjoying watching men have sex while also enjoying sex with you (a woman) does not have to mean anything much. I don't want sex with women but I enjoy seeing women (tastefully!) naked or sexual together. Be open is my view, being fearful to communicate about it with him just leads to anxiety. It is up to him to work out his own sexuality and what he does or does not want to act on. Making something "forbidden" only leads to emotional distance, lying or personal repression. It took me many years to get to this way of understanding things. Some people are definitely gay/straight but I think most people have a natural curiosity and interest in human beings being sexual..male or female. This might sound impossible..but I think I would ask him to show me what he likes looking at and embarrassing as it is discuss both your sexual tastes...maybe you will discover there are "resources" out there or in your mind (fantasy) that will enhance your sex life together and your relationship. Men like women to be direct and so many of us fuss around and worry too much. Just my opinion!

To everyone that told this woman she couldn't 'fix it' with counseling, you should go re-read her story. There was nothing in her testimony that said she wanted to 'fix' anything. Plus, even if she did say 'fix', why would you assume that she meant turning her husband from gay to straight? Maybe she could have meant 'fix' the marriage (or even just figure out if such a thing is possible/ good for both parties). Or 'fix' her anxiety about the porn and the identity issues it brings up for her husband by getting some more information. 'Fix' the communication gap, at the least. Also, maybe she just wanted a controlled setting to discuss whatever feelings he may have. Maybe he is bisexual. Maybe he used to experiment in college. Maybe he just likes gay porn (I do and I'm a female, so go figure that one out). Obviously she is too worried to ask these questions on her own, and counseling might provide a more controlled (and informed) atmosphere to obtain this information. As a gender and women studies major, I'm always appalled when people base their advice off homo/heteronormative assumptions. Jumping to conclusions about what the 'religious extremist' would do, or completely ignoring other forms of sexuality, or labeling people based off of 'criteria' (aka 'he has a lisp, so he's toootally gay). Do you know that there is a whole group of men out there who have sex with men but still call themselves straight (broadly known as MSM)? Some just like the sex. But that's just some, and who am I to hypothesize on their reasoning? Sexuality is not binary! The binary sexual categories (gay and straight), and the shaded middle area of the gay/straight ven diagram (bisexual)... they're all just names people created because people like to label things (and because of neoliberal politics), and really, just because you don't fit into a specific socially constructed category does not mean you're not a sexual being. Honestly, if you think the marriage is moving smoothly all these years after 'the incident', then I would try to forget about your anxious thoughts. But if you just can't let them go and you really love him, I think counseling is a good idea. Go to someone that specializes in sex therapy, or someone that is well versed in gender theory. Your marriage is not necessarily a sham, but if it's bothering you, you should obviously talk about it. Just keep an open mind! Sexuality is fluid and complicated at times, most people just don't want to acknowledge it (and are too ignorant to give advice on it).

Janine's comment is completely full of misinformation. Unprotected sex of any kind with someone who is having unprotected sex with other people IS a common vector for STDs, but it's not specific to gay men by any means. Also, just because he is looking at porn doesn't mean that he is out having gay sex. Many, many people (of /both/ genders, I note) watch porn. The 'straight men are horrified' comment is just plain stupid and based in homophobia and intolerance, where anything different is Wrong. It is entirely possible to be bisexual, and still be in a commited and monogamous. Bisexuality is quite real, and not just a 'stepping stone' or a 'way of denying'. I know plenty of bisexual people, some in relationships with MotOS and some with MotSS. It was never stated he only looks at gay porn, just that this 'stash' was all gay. Probably because she reacts like this, so he knows he has to hide things from her. There are many men who have to hide their porn collections from their partners, because People are Dumb. Your entire rant about 'always use condoms' is basic fearmongering. You have NO reason to claim he's been unfaithful. None at all. I think if this woman is worried about it, she should be talking to him (Openly and honestly, and not accusatorily), or seek couples counselling about it.
Janine22 5 years
Yes, he is gay. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind. I have known at least 8 male friends in my life who were gay but all claimed to be bisexual when they first came out because it was too difficult for them to admit they were gay. I am really shocked that so many women here think that this is not a big deal. Being sexually active with a man who is also having anal sex with other men is a very common and easy way for a woman to contract HIV. Anal sex is a high risk activity because of tearing and bleeding in the anus and (if the man is even using a condom) the condom is more likely to slip off or break. OP please, please get tested for HIV as soon as you can and always use condoms with this man. And no, he is not bisexual or bicurious, ok. No straight man would ever, ever look at gay porn. They are completely grossed out and horrified by it. If he is looking at exclusively gay porn (and no straight porn) then there is no doubt in my mind that he is gay. BTW, he probably is acting on his impulses and hiding it from you. Does he 'work late'? Does he often go out with people that you do not know? I hope that you find the strength to leave him and please get some counselling for yourself. Good luck.

also i wouldn't be confrontational. if you start accusing, and crying and arguing with him, i'm sure he's not going to be open to communicate. just tell him that this is something that has been bothering you for years, and just tell him that you feel like this is something he's hiding, and that you just want him to be honest with you. ask him why he was looking at the gay porn, and tell him that you'll still accept him either way, and that you still love him but need him to answer the various questions you have so that you can have some peace of mind.
TidalWave 5 years
Unless he is acting on it, I doubt it's anything to worry about.
MissJules5x 5 years
i think its really important that you tell him NOW how you feel and ask him "WHY" so maybe you can finally have some piece of mind? this is something you should have done 7 years ago instead of living with this... are there other reasons that you feel like he's hiding something? if there is, thats another thing you should discuss with him. you won't just get over it and you will always build resentment for not confronting him with your suspicions and telling him how you really feel. this is the man you are married to, not someone you just met and started dating, so you should be able to communicate with him.
POPSUGAR-Beauty 5 years
I vote no big deal. And anybody who's still concerned about something that happened seven years ago might want to look into therapy. It isn't healthy to carry that much stress and mistrust for so long.
Symphonee 5 years
If this has been bothering you for seven years, get a divorce. You are using this as a vessel to pour your insecurity into. If it wasn't this(although I can marginally understand why this would bother you), it would be something else. Looking at one or three gay porn sites out of curiosity and boredom is one thing. Seven or eight sites and giving no real reason as to why you looked at them is something different. He may have taken even more drastic steps to deal with his curiosity or inclinations since then. Either way you need to put your big girl panties on and calmly talk to him about the things that are still bothering you.
lemamike 5 years
I agree w/ Hiding. Straight men don't look at gay porn. He is probably gay or bi. You need to decide what you want the outcome to be. do you want to know the truth? if so, try to talk to him calmly - no yelling or crying and hope he can be honest with you about his feelings. If you want to stay happily married and pretend like nothing happened then just keep doing what you've been doing for 7 years.
Smacks83 5 years
Hmm, you confronted him with screaming and crying...oh yeah, I'm sure he really wanted to have a serious talk with you and not just tell you what you wanted to hear to make you stop being so emotional. Maybe if it bothers you, try to talk to him. Sit him down and TALK to him gently, let him know you support him no matter what (don't scream at him or accuse him of random things...who knows, maybe he's just really afraid you won't let him still be in the child's life if he does turn out to be gay).

Straight men do not watch gay porn. If she hasn't found anything new it's because he is hiding it. If my guy was looking at gay porn I would be really concerned and I would still be thinking about it seven years later. If it was something that he just accidentally stumbled upon while surfing the net it would not be multiple sites and it wouldn't have turned into a huge crying argument.

hypnoticmix 5 years
"He apologized and denied that he was gay." Well first of all he doesn't have to be a full on homo-sexual to be sexually attracted or stimulated by other men. His denial that he is not gay is simply using the extreme as a defense because he knows he's attracted to women too. In her case her love blinded her to the facts of the matter. He watches gay porn and reason would have it that he watches it because it does something for him. There is an article in (Scientific American Mind) it discusses a study that scientifically proves that human sexuality is on a continuum. People are either solidly hetero or homo but they are also varying degrees of bi-sexuality. I wrote a blog about it on (citizen 4.0) http://teamsugar.com/group/3040631/blog/3277583 I am a gay man pushing forty and in my experiences I can tell you that I've met many men who were once married and raised a family only to finally come out in their mid thirties or later. They knew they were gay all along but it just wasn't lifestyle they felt they were free to live.

First off, I personally have no experience in this matter, as every man I have been with was straight. However, with this said, I know of girlfriends who have been with men who were closeted (and later came out of the closet). During the relationship/marriage, these girlfriends had SOME inkling the men were gay (even though the men denied it when confronted. Subsequently, the women chose to believe them, instead of themselves, and continued their relationship/marriage). Well, sadly, it turned out my girlfriends' suspicions were correct, as down the road, the men came out of the closet to them. Based on my observations on my girlfriends, chances are, your husband may be gay. If he is, he chose to stay closeted for whatever reason. I agree counseling is a moot point. What would that solve?
fuzzles 5 years
Why was she going through his links in the first place? That, to me, screams insecurity within the relationship, no matter his sexual orientation. For that reason, and that reason alone, counseling may be in order. As for what way he truly swings, I think that is a frank discussion that should happen privately between the woman and her husband. She needs to prepare herself for an honest answer from him, and to act according to what is best for her and the children.
zabrow 5 years
if it upset you that much, you should have left him seven years ago. you can't forgive someone for something & then keep punishing them for it for years on end. as far as the gay porn issue goes, it's very possible that he's gay & either hasn't come to terms with it or is using his marriage with you as a cover & going behind your back to be with men. i'd say go to counseling to see which it is, but either way, you're probably going to end up leaving him if you want to be happy.
ms-jamerz 5 years
I agree with 'Snookyx'. Maybe he was just Bi-Curious at the time? Don't drag him to counselling. How embarassing for him. If you seriously can't get over something that happened seven years ago then bring it up with him and him only.
5 years
I can't believe everyone is ok with this. I think both parties need to go to counseling so that (either together or separately) so that the cause of the gay porn can be determined. Porn is never ok, but in today's society no one really cares about it anymore. So, at the very least go to counseling to figure out if your husband is attracted to women.

Seven years is a very long time....sexuality isn't a constant thing, and he may have been curious then but not so much now. I think if she hasn't found it since, it's less troublesome.

About seven years ago I found some gay porn links on my husband's computer. No straight porn. Oh, I saw that only now. He may be gay and married you to hide his sexual orientation, then I don't know what to say because he's basically living a lie.

Yeah this is bad news. If he looked at both straight and gay porn I could see him being bisexual but the fact that he exclusively looks at male gay porn is the worrisome part. He may be a good person and father but your gay friend could also be the same and that doesn't mean you should be in a relationship. As good of a person as he is, none of that will matter when he comes to terms with who he wants to be with and you are blindsided and alone decades later.

He's probably bisexual. The question is whether or not you can live with that.

just because he looked at gay porn it doesn't mean he is gay. maybe he was curious, or maybe he is bisexual. i know plenty of straight guys and girls who look at gay/lesbian porn. also like others have said if he is gay or bi counseling will not solve the problem.

If the fact that he is 'a good person and a great father' isn't more important than what he wanks to, then you need to think about who has the problem.

Oh dear..Just because your husband looked at gay porn doesn't mean he is gay. Maybe he was curious, or bisexual. I would be more offended if I found my boyfriend looking at straight porn. And as long as he's still willing to hop in the sack with you he still loves and still thinks your the hottest thing since Jalapenos. Counseling will NEVER be able to "fix" someones sexual identity. If he isn't straight you shouldn't view him at something that needs to be "set right." Hes your husband and he wouldn't have married you if he didn't love you!

I can never decide with these whether you're supposed to comment on the attitude of the person who's complaining, or the person who did something. Apparently that lady has never heard of bisexuality, maybe she should read up on it. Oh by the way, you can't "fix" it with counseling.

Seahawks CB Richard Sherman won his appeal against the NFL of his four-game suspension for the use of performance-enhancing substances.
"Thank you (NFL) for upholding the truth!" Sherman tweeted.
The second-year corner had his appeal heard last week. He said this week that he would sue the league if the suspension was upheld. The appeal reportedly centered around the handling procedures of Sherman's sample.
Sherman has started all 15 games this season and has 61 tackles, one sack, 23 passes defensed, seven interceptions and three forced fumbles. His fellow starter at cornerback, Brandon Browner, is currently serving a four-game suspension for PEDs, but will be eligible to return for the start of the playoffs.

- Excerpt: "Bob and Matt are working to help small business owners by eliminating exorbitant fees, cutting red tape and providing other incentives."
- Cap state spending and relieve the burden on hardworking taxpayers
- Excerpt: "Families across New Jersey are tightening their belts to live within their means—and it's time state government did the same. Bob and Matt support a state spending cap because they don't want to see our tax dollars going toward wasteful pet projects."
- Prohibit politicians from accepting gifts from lobbyists
- Excerpt: "Bob and Matt are neighbors, community leaders and small business owners—not career politicians. That's why they support legislation that prohibits politicians from accepting gifts from lobbyists.

- Bring home South Jersey's fair share of state resources and money
- Excerpt: ."..Bob and Matt are a powerful voice making sure we get our fair share of state resources. They've secured funding for tourism, open space preservation and economic development and will continue to advocate for critical projects, such as additional tourism funding to support the local economy in Atlantic, Cape May and Cumberland counties."
- Improve access to affordable health care and prescription drugs
- Excerpt: "Health care is a right, not a privilege—and tough economic times should not mean our children, families and seniors are denied they quality care they deserve.

The Herald Bulletin
---- — SUMMITVILLE — There's a reason it's called Indiana.
Cyrus W. Hodgin, in his 1903 article "The Naming of Indiana," explained that the name was originally derived by added an "a" to the name of the people from whom the land was obtained.
"Before Indiana became a state, there were as many as 103 different tribes that at one point called Indiana home," said Greg Grabhorn of the White Buffalo Society.
The Muncie-based group invites people old and young to join them for their 15th annual pow wow this weekend – a gathering that celebrates Native American culture and educates as well. The pow wow this year takes place in a new venue at Summitville Community Center.
"There's a lot to do for every member of the family," said Grabhorn. He said the event is geared to inform. "It's very important to all of us as a society. It is very big that hopefully you learn something… A lot of people really don't know about the culture." Grabhorn estimated about 800 people attended last year's event, although he described the White Buffalo Society's pow wow as a smaller one.
"It's really quite fascinating," said Grabhorn. "You feel the togetherness, the closeness, the feeling like a family type atmosphere."
Drumming and dancing are key parts of the two-day event, replete with the colorful regalia of tribal ceremonial dress. Grabhorn said that two different drum groups will perform, Ohio-based Thunder with the Hands, and Winter Hawk, a group that hails from northern Indiana.
"It's all native music," said Grabhorn.
Grabhorn said that different tribes are represented in the dances, including Potawatomie, Miami, Delaware, Cherokee, Shawnee, Apache, Sioux, Lakota and Dakota. Different kinds of dances, like the fancy shawl dance, sneak up dance and grass dance, are performed in a variety of traditional Native American dress, including headdresses, ribbon shirts, chaps and buckskin dresses.
"We encourage the public to come out and join the dances," said Grabhorn. He said staff is on hand to help, but, "We encourage them to dance how they feel to the drumbeat.
Everybody kind of picks up on a different vibe to the drum."
There will be fun for the kids, including native storytellers as well as the Candy Dance where kids 12 and under get inside the arena to travel in a circle while the drum plays. When the drumming stops, it's time to pick up candy.
The pow wow opens at 10 a.m. Saturday with vendors set up on the grounds. Vendors will offer things like leather products, furs, beadwork and more. Some of them also teach about the items they sell. Food vendors will have some traditional native foods available including fry bread and buffalo burgers. Dancing and drumming starts in the early afternoon.
"We hold a feast on Saturday," said Grabhorn. Following dinner, there's an evening session of drumming and dancing. That will wrap up by 10 p.m., and about a half hour later the day will culminate with a "Crazy Midnight Auction" to which vendors donate items. There will be more activities, including drumming and dancing on Sunday.
The White Buffalo Society was established in 1996. The non-profit group seeks to educate the public on all aspects of Native American culture.
"We try to do as much teaching as possible," said Grabhorn. The group also tries to make their events friendly ones.
"We want people to know that there are Native Americans right in your community," said Grabhorn, who is part Cherokee. "We want people to realize we're people that are out there like anybody else."
The White Buffalo Society meets the first Saturday of each month at 6:30 p.m. at the Forest Park Senior Citizens Center, 2517 W. Eighth St. in Muncie. For more information, contact Grabhorn at email@example.com or call 317-730-6972.

According to Richard Sandomir of the New York Times, Bob Costas will miss at least another night behind the anchor desk for NBC's prime-time Olympic coverage. Costas has been out of action since last week, when an eye infection broke his streak of hosting 157 consecutive prime-time Olympic broadcasts.
Bob Costas tells me that he hopes–emphasis on hopes–for a return to anchor desk in Sochi on Monday or Tuesday night—

Today host Matt Lauer will continue to fill in for Costas while he's out.
Here's hoping Costas comes back soon, and hungry enough for competition that he demands Lauer take him on in an on-air gravitas contest.

AMY HEGGEN, Contributing Writer
PLATTSBURGH — Jonathan Waldron awakes every morning surrounded by machines, with a view of the nurse's station across the hall.
In the Intensive Care Unit at Boston Children's Hospital since May 30, he awaits news of a possible lung transplant.
"He's very close to the top of the list, and we have had offers that unfortunately haven't been good enough," said Jonathan's mother, Marlene Waldron.
Pediatric patients often can't accept adult organs, especially lungs, she said.
"It's the hardest organ to transplant; it's the only organ that interacts with the outside world," she explained.
Jonathan, 17, has cystic fibrosis, a life-threatening, chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system.
His body is rejecting the lungs from a 2008 transplant, which means he needs help breathing and ridding his body of carbon dioxide.
To help with the process, the Morrisonville teen was put on a machine known as ECMO, or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
"So now the blood is coming out of his body and is being oxygenated, the carbon dioxide is being pulled out mechanically, and the blood is being put back into his body," Marlene explained.
"Unfortunately, there's a time limit. Thirty-five days is the average a person is on it."
He has also had a tracheotomy, which makes talking difficult.
Thursday was day 27 for Jonathan, and the wait is excruciating for him and his family.
But every day is a new hope.
"The good thing is that Jonathan is ambulatory," his mother said this week. "Every day, they try to get him to sit up and do exercises. He walked yesterday and the day before, and he'll try to walk today."
Her son, she said, is a quirky guy with a wicked sense of humor, and a prankster.
"It's hard to explain without meeting him," she said.
Jonathan jokes around with his favorite staff at the hospital and plays Xbox with one of the nurses. He also enjoys playing computer games on his laptop, which helps to distract him, Marlene said.
"If you can keep your spirits up, that helps with your healing, too."
Jonathan missed part of the school year, so friends from home, and certainly family, are missing him. His two siblings, Kierstynn and Averill, hope to travel to Boston for a visit soon.
"He's a fighter, and he's not giving up," Marlene said.
Jonathan made the choice to keep fighting.
"He's always had a choice in his care, even when his first transplant came up. It's his life; it's his body. He has a say in everything," Marlene said.
Last year, Jonathan was able to join the cross-country team, but his lungs held him back, which was frustrating for him.
"He's a 17-year-old boy. He wants to go play football at his school," Marlene said.
Jonathan has lost privacy and independence during the last few months, which has been the one of the hardest parts of being in the hospital, she said.
"He went from having his own bedroom and being able to close the doors to having the doors and curtains wide open," Marlene said.
Organ donation is close to Marlene's heart, and she hopes that people are thinking about it, she said.
"There are kids out there like this who need this kind of help," Marlene said. "It's a really hard thought when you're in the midst of grief to consider it; it's the last thing you want to think about."
She said that anyone can be an organ donor, and that only a signature is required.
"As a parent of a recipient … I always send prayers up thanking the donor family from his first transplant," Marlene said. "We had four great years."
She's also appreciative of all the people who have offered their help in the past few months.
"People are great," she said. "It puts faith back into you."

MALONE — Chateaugay Democrat Billy Jones was elected chairman of the Franklin County Legislature Thursday after a little drama.
Routinely, a chairman is nominated by the majority party of the board and voted on, with all seven members typically agreeing on the choice.
But for the first time in the County Legislature's history, a second candidate was nominated for chair: Republican Paul Maroun of Tupper Lake.
Legislator Marc "Tim" Lashomb (R-Malone) made the nomination, which was seconded by Republican Legislator Sue Robideau (R-Brushton).
Legislator Guy "Tim" Smith (D-Fort Covington), who was acting as temporary chairman of the board for the election, leaned toward County Attorney Jonathan Miller, saying, 'We've never had this happen. What do we do?"
Miller said the legislators should vote, and Smith offered Jones's name up first.
In a roll-call vote, Jones was elected by a vote of 4-2, with one ballot not cast due to Maroun's absence.
"We have four votes, so Billy Jones is our next chairman," Smith said.
Jones, 38, is in the final year of a three-year term as legislator. He is a correction officer at Bare Hill Correctional Facility in Malone and has been with the State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision for 16 years.
He said being named chairman was "a great honor that I don't want to take lightly. We have a great group of individuals, and we work great together.
"There's nothing wrong with Franklin County that can't be fixed by Franklin County, and this board has proven that."
He admitted there are challenges ahead that "we will meet as long, as we're honest with our constituents. I'm very confident."
Outgoing Chairman Gordon Crossman (D-Malone) was selected as vice chairman by a vote of 6-0, with one absence.
Maroun was named minority leader, and Smith was named majority leader.

News: G-Dep Refuses Guilty Plea In Fatal Shooting Case
Thursday, Sep 22, 2011 8:00PM
Former Bad Boy Records rapper G-Dep is going to try his chances in the judicial system by turning down a guilty plea opportunity for a trial related to a fatal 1993 shooting.
According to reports, Dep will try his luck in a courtroom this November.
The 36-year-old turned himself in to clear his conscience of shooting a man in an attempted robbery, only to later learn that the attack was fatal. The DA's office said it would only offer a plea deal for the top count - murder in the second degree - which could put him behind bars for 25 years to life. It is my understanding that the parties have not been able to reach an agreement," Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Michael Obus said. "The people are not willing to offer anything other than a plea to the [top count]." A trial date is set for November 10th. (Hip Hop DX)
In June, Dep reflected on confessing to the early 1990's shooting from a Rikers Island jail.
"Thinking about that day, that whole situation, that incident right there when I went into the precinct," Dep says in the trailer. "That was a real shock. I knew I probably would have to do maybe some time or something was going to be investigated or something like that. But when the detective came back in and said the guy died, it kinda just changed everything." (XXL Mag)
Last December, Dep admitted to being the gunman behind a 1993 murder.
Apparently when Trevell Coleman, AKA rapper G-Dep, came cleanto police about shooting a man in the chest in 1993, he may not have known that he was confessing to killing a guy. He told the Post in a jailhouse interview, "I was surprised -- for some reason, I really didn't think that he died. When they told me, I was like, 'Oh, I'm not going home after this.'" He has now been charged with murder, and faces life in prison. Coleman says he didn't think much of the shooting at the time, but "started to wonder if all the bad things that happened to me in my life were karma for what I did...I thought that if I turned myself in, it might give me closure." So despite the objections of his mother and his girlfriend, he told the police. Now he says, "The only thing I regret is that I have to leave my kids." (Gothamist)
Following the publicized confession, Bad Boy Records CEO Diddy spoke on Dep's legal tribulations.
"You could always feel that if you knew G. Dep, and I can't say it was that, maybe something was troubling his soul," Diddy explained in an interview. "'Cause he was real quiet. He's the type of guy who wouldn't hurt a fly. I don't know what happened in that instance but he did the right thing and manned up to it...He had a real bad drug problem and that could have caused the situation. As a person, that wasn't nothing that he would do. Drugs sometimes make people slip up and make mistakes...Dep was definitely one of the favorite artists I signed to Bad Boy. That's something I really wanted to work out, but that was just like he had personal things he was dealing with and we tried our best with that." (Shade 45)

Trick Shots
"Aaron and I perform a live exhibition shooting show. We basically, in 45 minutes, shoot the guns in many different ways, behind our backs, over our heads, basically any way you can think of shooting a variety of targets." says Steve.
Trick shooting has been around since guns were invented, but recently a couple of men pioneered a whole new level.
"I got started as a young kid hunting and the shooting sports. Steve didn't get a love for it until we both moved back from college, we started to shoot together getting ready for the hunting season. We got inspired by Tom Knapp. We started out in the back yard with 1 target, then 2 targets and it morphed into us shooting a lot of targets with a lot of shells and having a lot of fun." says Aaron.
But all that cost a lot of money and their wives suggested they get sponsors and literally take their show on the road. They shoot all over the world and recently wowed the crowd at the National Hunting and Fishing Days. If this gets you fired up to try shooting, Steve has a final word of advice.
"If you're just getting into it, it's like any sport, you need to put in the time and the practice. one of the biggest things that can help new people get into the shooting sports is finding someone to mentor them, bring them out to the range and show them the fundamentals and getting them on birds. If you just go out and shoot, you could be holding the gun wrong, you'll miss, it can get pretty frustrating." says Steve.
But once you get it down, you have it down for life.

"Night In Day" first appeared as a painting which introduced Blackshear's unique Afro Noveau style - a style heavily influenced by Art Noveau and Art Deco. This allegorical design shows night as a man wrapped in daylight. Blackshear uses color and symbolism to create both nighttime and daytime. Swarovski crystals are used to embellish the night sky.
NOTES: Retired June 2001 with a final production quantity of 8,000.
"Night in Day is my breakthrough painting. I guess you could say that this was the first piece that helped me get in touch with who I'm becoming."
--- Thomas Blackshear II
"I wanted to create a new piece for the Society of Illustrators art show in San Francisco," says Blackshear," and Night in Day became my breakthrough. It was the first time I saw a painting in my head before I did it. I even knew the name of it. Every piece I did from that point on was different. I had a new goal, a new outlook, and a new reason for what I was doing."
Night in Day represents the nighttime wrapped in daylight, but it also symbolizes any person's emergence from the darkness of doubt into the light of love and hope. Blackshear's mastery of light and dark, influenced by such illustrators of the "golden age" as Maxfield Parrish and N.C. Wyeth, creates a timeless, landmark image.
Night In Day by Ebony Visions comes packed with a Certificate of Authenticity which affirms that this piece is an authentic Limited Edition Sculpture. The Collection Shop is an Authorized Premier Dealer for Ebony Visions.

RE: which i sonic?
Hard question to answer. Not the answer your looking for I'm sure, but I figure you'd have to say all of them, as he's won races on all 3 boards. The Ian F & the team do say that the iS101 is sweet. Mean time, check out Antoine's comments on this link.

Also check this out. In french, its passed my bedtime, so I hav'nt translated it, soz. But its not difficult to figure out the combos etc.
Antoine Albeau
Taille : 1,86 m
Poids : 96 kg
Choix de planche n°1 : Starboard iSonic 111 car cette planche peut passer de 10 nÅuds Ã* 25 nÅuds.
Choix de planche n°2 : Starboard iSonic 87, pour faire tout le reste, même dès 20 nÅuds si le vent est établi.
Choix de voile n°1 : NeilPryde RS:Racing 9.0
Choix de voile n°2 : NeilPryde RS:Racing 7.8
Choix de voile n°3 : NeilPryde RS:Racing 6.7
La taille de ces voiles ce sera pour un gars de 90/85kg, si le gars est plus léger je conseille 8.4/7.2/6.2, attention maintenant Gruissan est quand même la seule épreuve où on peut avoir du vent très fort. Pour les ailerons, ce n'est pas compliqué, car les iSonic sont vraiment super polyvalentes, avec la iSonic 111 il faut un 42 cm et la iSonic 87 un 34 cm.

For the first time in Walker Magazine's brief history a local lady will grace its cover – Sabrina Keating. And I believe we saved the best for the final issue of the year.
Everyone knows and loves Sabrina. She recently finished her stint as president of the University of Alabama National Alumni Association. She stepped into that role in April 2012 only weeks after she and the community mourned the untimely death of her beloved husband, Dr. Mark Keating, who died from injuries sustained in a terrible cycling accident.
This is a feel-good story, however, about the University of Alabama and the tremendous year it experienced in sports, told from the perspective of one of us who had the opportunity and experience of her lifetime!
I am also excited to pen a feature story about the Hudson brothers – Tab, Steve and Phillip. The trio sharpened their respective character, personality and golf game growing up at Musgrove Country Club, where their father, Travis, was a long-time club professional.
They have many tales to tell about growing up on the banks of Blackwater Creek, which encloses what have become hallowed grounds for many area golfers.
While the three often individually return to Musgrove, you can always count on them competing as brothers the second weekend in July in the Travis Hudson/Bernard Weinstein Invitational.
Steve won the tournament six times (1979, 1984, 1991, 2003, 2004, 2010) and Tab captured three championships (1985, 1987, 1993).
Meanwhile, the summer issue of Walker Magazine will include a variety of other interesting feature stories, including:
•How baseball shaped Walker County
•The Luis Rushing Photo Collection as preserved and promoted by folks at the Walker County Library
•A historical look at the old Harbin Hotel
•Summer Fun Tips for Walker County
•Photo essay of Summertime in Walker County
Of course, the issue will include regular quarterly features like:
•Did You Know?: Fun Facts of Walker County
•Why I Love Walker County: Sarah Glover
•Local Talent: Robbie Spears-The Juliet Collective
•Multiple Sightings pages where we photograph local folks attending social functions
Walker Magazine promotes what is good in Walker County. Our staff works diligently to offer our readers something fresh every season. We hope you are as excited about our upcoming issue as we are.

MIDDLETOWN — The Middletown Public Library has announced programming for the autumn session. Adult and children's programs are open to the public.
Adults programs include:
-- Knit-Witts: For adults who like to visit while they knit. This loosely structured class meets 6 to 8 p.m. Mondays. Bring the latest project and join in the fun. Patron Lynda Wilkinson leads this class.
-- Adult Book Club: Join in with other readers who love to talk about books. This group, headed by staffer Phil Carson, meets at 6:30 p.m. on the last Thursday of the month.
-- Computer classes: This is an excellent resource for adults who feel forced into the computer age. Retired SHS teacher Jane Young teaches several series in a small setting, including Beginning Computer, Word, Excel, Power Point, and Scrapbooking. Classes include four sessions. Cost is $10.
For children, the library offers several programs for the fall semester (September through December).
-- Pajama Story Time: Children are invited to wear pajamas and bring their favorite bedtime blanket or stuffed animal as they listen to several pre-bedtime stories. Milk and cookies are served. Registration is not needed. This program meets the first Tuesday of each month, 7 to 7:30 and is led by staffer Sally Mills.
-- Story Time: A gentle introduction to a classroom setting for preschoolers who are potty trained. It meets each Wednesday. Classes are at 10:30 a.m. or 1 p.m. and are led by staffers Linda Jones and Sally Mills. Activities include Play-Doh, stories, art, and snacks. Registration is required.
-- The Adventure Zone: Much more than just a book club for elementary school-aged children, the Zone includes classic literature, art, drama, and community outreach. It meets Monday from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. Registration is required.
-- LEGO Club: Started this past spring, this club has been a huge success. The library supplies all Legos and a building topic for each session. It will meet on the first Saturday of the month from 10:30 a.m. to noon. Another session will be added on the third Saturday of the month if necessary. Registration is required.

This is my creation based on the model sold at pottery barn. My fiancé wanted one and suggest that I make one as a project, so I did. I have about 12 hours and $350 into the project. (the knobs she picked out were $5 each!) Happy wife, happy life, am I right?! In all it saved me about $700 from the retail price and is built and looks A LOT better. Plus It gave me a reason to spend a little extra time in the shop which has never hurt anyone. Thanks for looking!

Nice job, what did you use for stain and paint??

The case is maple plywood and the top is poplar (I know it's soft but just used what I had). Michagander, I used General Finishes brand stain. The case is espresso and the top is black cherry.
