Today, June 27th, is the Feast Day of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Here is the Prayer of Consecration to the Sacred Heart (composed by Pope Leo XIII):
Prayer of Consecration to the Sacred Heart:
Most sweet Jesus, Redeemer of the human race, look down upon us humbly prostrate before Thine altar. We are Thine, and Thine we wish to be; but, to be more surely united with Thee, behold each one of us freely consecrates himself today to Thy most Sacred Heart.
Many indeed have never known Thee; many too, despising Thy precepts, have rejected Thee. Have mercy on them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them to Thy sacred Heart. Be Thou King, O Lord, not only of the faithful who have never forsaken Thee, but also of the prodigal children who have abandoned Thee; grant that they may quickly return to Thy Father's house lest they die of wretchedness and hunger.
Be Thou King of those who are deceived by erroneous opinions, or whom discord keeps aloof, and call them back to the harbor of truth and unity of faith, so that there may be but one flock and one Shepherd.
Be Thou King of all those who are still involved in the darkness of idolatry or of Islamism, and refuse not to draw them into the light and kingdom of God. Turn Thine eyes of mercy towards the children of the race, once Thy chosen people: of old they called down upon themselves the Blood of the Savior; may it now descend upon them a laver of redemption and of life.
Grant, O Lord, to Thy Church assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give peace and order to all nations, and make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry: "Praise be to the divine Heart that wrought our salvation; to it be glory and honor for ever." Amen.
A Happy and Blessed Feast Day of the Sacred Heart to everyone.

It seems that there has been an increase in the number of attacks against the Resistance lately. A Jewish news source recently targeted the Resistance by name, labeling them a "schismatic group refusing to accept anything from Vatican II". This is most interesting. And that's not to mention all the anti-Resistance rubbish we're seeing pushed on certain "Trad" forums nowadays. For a group which some claim is "withering away", it sure is getting a lot of attention. If it actually is falling apart as some say, why is so much attention being given to it?
Here is the answer to that question: the reason is because the enemies of the Resistance obviously feel threatened by it, which is why they are spending so much of their time and energy attempting to discredit it with their fallacy-filled arguments. The Neo-SSPX has been doing this from the beginning, and now the Judeo-Masons are firing insults at the group.
If the Resistance were such a small, weak, insignificant group, no one would give them any advertisement or waste their time fighting with them. They'd simply ignore them and let them fizzle out on their own.
But as much as some people may dislike it, the Resistance isn't going anywhere any time soon. It's here to stay, and it has become a real pest to the NSSPX leadership, who still release propaganda-filled, anti-Resistance articles on their sites every once in a while as a means of damage control.
Naturally, the NSSPX laity aren't thrilled about the Resistance's growth. The Resistance doesn't appeal to them, because they don't want to have to fight (unless they're fighting either the Resistance or sedevacantists, who, in their minds, are the only REAL enemies, or at least that's the impression they give). They don't want to hear sermons about how abhorrent the modern world is, or how rotten the conciliar church is. They want to keep their comfort. They want to pretend the conciliar church, while in error, isn't all that bad and that we shouldn't entirely avoid it. They want to persist in their delusion that the evils of the modern world should be ignored. They prefer priests who have an "ignore the evil and just seek the good" approach; priests who never warn their flock about the dangers of Vatican II or of modern society. (+Fellay supporters really do complain about Resistance sermons being all about how bad the world and the conciliar church are, and never "about the Faith". With a mindset like that, one wonders why they don't just go attend an FSSP chapel. And as far the Resistance's sermons never touching on anything spiritual, that's not true. Listen to Fr. Hewko's sermons. You'll be amazed. There's a lot you can learn from his sermons even if you're not a Resister.)
Despite all of the criticisms and hatred, the Resistance is still very relevant today. It is not overpowering in size, true. But what it lacks in number, it makes up for in quality.
In times such as these, we should be thankful that someone is standing up for the truth. Remember to listen to the sermons of Bishop Williamson and the Resistance priests. Read the writings of Archbishop Lefebvre. And, as Bishop Williamson so often reminds us:
"Watch and pray, watch and pray, fifteen decades every day."
God Bless.

Some of you may have heard several months ago the news that the formerly pro-Resistance website – "Our Lady's Resistance Kansas" – announced that it was no longer supportive of the Resistance. Now, the website has added a "Characters of Schism" page, condemning various Traditional laymen, priests, and Bishops as "schismatics" or "conciliarists/liberals". Here are all of those on the list:
Fr. Pfeiffer
Fr. Hewko
Fr. Chazal
Bishop Fellay
John Vennari
Fr. Gregory Hesse
Fr. Nicholas Gruner
Michael Matt
Bishop Pivarunas
Fr. Cekada
Bishop Williamson
Archbishop Lefebvre
Some on the list certainly are not figures we should consider reliable, such as Bishop Fellay and Michael Matt. But seriously, Fr. Hewko? Bishop Williamson? Even Archbishop Lefebvre?!
They sound like dogmatic sedevacantists, only they don't believe the Chair of Peter is empty (therefore they technically aren't sedevacantists), they think there is a true Pope… in Portugal. Yes, Portugal.
They call Bishop Williamson a "conciliarist", and accuse Archbishop Lefebvre of "trying to turn people away from the truth". They also dishonestly accuse Fr. Hewko of making a "devilish sign of the cross", pointing to a video of a sermon he gave where he can be seen making a (supposedly) "circular" sign of the cross. What they neglect to point out is that the camera was not pointed at Fr. Hewko as he began making the sign of the cross but then suddenly flashed back to him, hence making it look like he made a circular sign of the cross. But the fact is that he didn't.
I must say, the depth that the owners of this website have sunk to is almost as laughable as it is pathetic. I mean, really. Because Our Lady said that Portugal would keep the Faith, they therefore conclude that the true Pope is in Portugal? Where is the logic in that reasoning?
Please stay away from websites such as "Our Lady's Resistance Kansas", which promotes nothing but mind-rotting slush. The slander that they level against Archbishop Lefebvre, Bishop Williamson, and the Resistance priests is truly disgusting. Certainly Our Lady and Our Lord Jesus Christ will not bless the efforts of such disgraceful work.
This also, however, serves as an example of why dogmatic sedevacantism is dangerous. Again, these people technically are not sedevacantists, but notice how they condemn anyone who accepts Francis as Pope as a schismatic. If they want to merely disagree with the recognize and resist position, that would be one thing, but to treat it as an intolerable evil is quite another. For some people, the Vatican II Popes being antipopes becomes the most important issue, but as Bishop Williamson noted in a 2013 conference, it is not the most important issue. What matters most is that we keep the Faith.
The fact remains that, were it not for Archbishop Lefebvre, Traditional Catholicism would not be what it is today. And were it not for Bishop Williamson, what other Traditional cleric would warn us of the New World Order? And were it not for him and the Resistance, who would continue the Archbishop's work now that the NSSPX has abandoned the Archbishop's principles?
Let us never cease to appreciate what the Archbishop did for Tradition, and what Bishop Williamson and the Resistance priests continue to do for Tradition.
God Bless.

Bishop Williamson has recently claimed that a "recognition of tolerance" agreement will soon be reached by the Neo-SSPX and the Vatican. Multiple sources have confirmed this to be true, and Bishop Fellay himself mentioned it at a recent conference.
What is this "recognition of tolerance"? It is not the actual "regularization" that Bishop Fellay has so strongly desired to obtain. In the words of NSSPX priest Fr. Nely, it is a "unilateral recognition by Rome". Nothing will be signed, however. It is, essentially, Rome agreeing to simply "tolerate" the SSPX for a few years, and then they will see where things go from there.
So what, you might ask, is the problem with this? As Bishop Williamson explained in a 2013 conference:
"If you've got the truth, you should not go begging to anybody."
In other words, if you have the truth, you shouldn't go begging to those who do NOT have the truth to "recognize" or "tolerate" it. You don't need anyone's permission to keep the Mass and Faith of all-time.
But here, we have the SSPX asking Rome to "tolerate" the truth! Who cares what modernist Rome thinks? They are liars and modernists who do not have the truth, so why should we care whether or not they find us "tolerable"?
Nevertheless, Bishop Fellay will be giving quite the sales pitch to make the faithful go along with it. "Oh, we don't have to sign anything, everything will continue as it is, all that changes is that Rome agrees to tolerate us. Then, in a few years, we'll see where things go from there. It's a step in the right direction!"
Undoubtedly, most of the clueless faithful will buy his sales pitch hook, line, and sinker.
In fact, some already are expressing their support of the idea. Here is what one person stated on another forum:
"Sounds great to me. Personally I think that the SSPX should drop any "fight" and just provide the sacraments. It is time to ignore Rome. God is going to flatten the place. Kind of like Lot leaving Sodom. Just concentrate on building up the SSPX. Provide the Mass and provide schooling."
This comment is absolutely ridiculous. Archbishop Lefebvre would NEVER have approved of his Society "giving up the fight" against the modernists. He never ceased criticizing their scandalous words and actions. Even when negotiations with Rome were taking place, that did not stop him from blasting the abhorrent Assisi meeting. We must follow his example and continue to condemn error when we see it.
Dear readers, this is simply another nail in the coffin of the Neo-SSPX. It shows how far the SSPX has strayed from the path of its founder. As the Archbishop once said: "We cannot work together with these enemies of Our Lord". If he couldn't work with them, why should we think that he would have strived to be "tolerated" by them?
God Bless.

Today, May 5th, is the Feast Day of Pope St. Pius V. He officially promulgated the Traditional Latin Mass in 1570, continued the work of the Council of Trent that had been started by his predecessor, Pius IV, and was responsible for the Catechism of the Council of Trent.

(This is a follow-up post to my article "Conciliar Canonizations", which I wrote in July of 2013.)
So, it has happened: the man who started the Vatican II revolution (John XXIII) and the man who prayed with false religions, covered up sex abuse cases, and "excommunicated" Archbishop Lefebvre and the SSPX (John Paul II) are now *officially* considered "saints" in the conciliar church. Pope Francis "canonized" them this past Sunday.
The reactions to these so-called "canonizations" has been mixed. Some Trads will embrace the sedevacantist position as a result. Some will remain "recognize and resisters" but will reject the "canonizations". Those who don't wish to embrace sedevacantism but also see no way in which to dismiss the legitimacy of these "canonizations" will simply accept. There will even be those who apostatize from the Faith because of the event.
Obviously the last two options should be untenable for Traditional Catholics. I don't need to explain why the last one is to be avoided (other than to note as a refresher: "There is no salvation outside the Catholic Church"). As for the third option, we should not be willing to accept the declared "sainthood" of these men, whose actions caused so much damage to the Faith and led so many souls astray.
Which of the first two options is correct is something that each individual much decide for themselves. Either way, however, we must absolutely reject these "canonizations". They are fraudulent and illegitimate.
As I have mentioned previously, I find it interesting that the conciliar church raises to its altar men who were responsible for an unprecedented apostasy from the Faith (and it will be "beatifying" Paul VI this fall!), but someone such as Archbishop Lefebvre is considered "excommunicated" for merely wishing to keep the Faith and Mass of all-time.
But Bishop Fellay desires to obtain a "canonical regularization" from this conciliar church! He wishes to align himself with a church which recognizes modernists as Saints, while the founder of the Society that he is Superior General of is "excommunicated". Let that sink in for a while.
No, we must avoid the conciliar church at all costs, and this is one of many reasons why. I reject these "canonizations" and shall continue to do as the Archbishop did: I shall remain faithful to eternal Rome, not this modernist Rome.
God Bless.

It's 2010, a brand new year.
I've been pondering for the past few days, trying to gather some thoughts and ideas and goals, some sort of direction for this new year. I feel like a blank slate. It's as if I've been walking around with a clipboard and a pen listening, thinking, observing, reading, talking, struggling, struggling for something, anything, to write down. You know what? Zilch. Nada. Nothing. I feel completely void of ideas, goals and direction for the future past this very moment.
My Sweet Niece Lindsey posted an honest, and humbling post A New Year...A New Me in which she was asked about her and Brian's Five Year Plan. I don't know what she actually said at the time but in her post she responds with a scripture Isaian 55:8 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts neither your ways my ways declares the Lord."
Like Lindsey I am not against planning and long term goals and financial regulation to make those goals and plans happen. I admire and envy people who can form a plan and make it happen. But for me life is just not that way. I've tried but it's never happened. Not the way I planned and worked toward anyway.
I cling to Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope."
I say "I cling" but actually I stray, a lot. I get scared, tired, panicky, frustrated, and feel totally out of control more often than not it seems. Then I get back to trust - Trust in the LORD, trust in my husband, trust in myself, trust that everything will be all right.
My clipboard is no longer a blank slate. It says, "Thank you Lord for the plans, for welfare, for the absence of calamity, for a future and for hope." "Your thoughts are NOT my thoughts (thank God) and my ways are NOT Your ways (thank God again).
Life is a series of one day at a time. Moment by moment. Thank God Again and Again.

MOm, I think feeling like a blank slate is a way of allowing God to write his goals for you. Yes, I know we are the type that DO have these financial etc. goals-but we also have to not lean on our own understanding and be open to God changing "our" plans and directing our plans. Some of us are more "goal setters" then others....along with that we need to rely on God's provision and ask Him for his plans for our life.

Good luck !

Jenny McCarthy Reveals Details About Jim Carrey Break Up
The Playboy model-turned-actress-turned-author discusses the relationship on an episode of 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' that airs Tuesday, PEOPLE reports.
McCarthy visits Oprah's couch to discuss her latest book, 'Love, Lust and Faking It,' and while there, is asked what happened with Carrey. "Tell me, when did you know it was over?" Winfrey asks.
McCarthy candidly answers, "You know, the simple word I can give – and there's a few, so let me say a few. The first thing is, when it's not fun anymore, you need to start investigating and do an inquiry into the relationship."
Winfrey asks if reconciliation is possible. "Okay, I'm gonna ask this ... Just because I have to ... Any chance you'll get back together, do you think?"
"God, another good question," replies McCarthy.
"That's sort of a simple one," Winfrey says. McCarthy responds, "I know. I didn't even think about that one, though."
McCarthy also reveals that even though they announced the breakup in April, the couple had split weeks before. "When celebrities break up, usually when people find out about it, it happened way earlier. No matter what, your heart still needs to mend. ...So I feel like we really had some time to... heal a little bit."
During the interview, McCarthy insists to the talk show host that she didn't lose her own identity while dating Carrey. "My identification wasn't caught up [in] being a celebrity's ... girlfriend," she said.
When pressed by Oprah whether she is sure, she continues, "Absolutely. I did check on that, by the way. I checked into myself. How does my ego feel? ... My ego's fine. I'm a warrior mom. I always got back on my feet, and I know especially this year who I am."
Halle Berry called it quits with her boyfriend, Gabriel Aubry, ending their five-year relationship. The couple has a 2-year-old daughter, Nahla Ariel Aubry.

The fact that they weren't bound together by marriage means she has options to move on, if the relationship isn't doing it for her, then fine, move on. It's not like marriage where you made a decision to be together for life, through fun times and boring times.

The struggle ain't over. Those who've given in to the euphoria of the moment need only speak with young people in the hood.

Ishmael Reed is one of the most read writers of his generation, along with Toni Morrison and Amiri Baraka, living in America. In 1962, Reed co-founded "East Village Other," a well known underground publication at the time, and was a member of the Umbra Writers Workshop, which helped to give rise to the Black Arts Movement. He has published nine novels, four collections of poetry, six plays, four collections of essays and a libretto. He currently lives in Oakland, and I approached him one day while he was visiting KPFA's studios to ask him what he thought about the state of affairs between the police and Oakland's Black community, with the backdrop of the police murder of Oscar Grant and, in a separate incident, the police murder of Lovelle Mixon, after Mixon allegedly killed four Oakland police officers.

Mass imprisonment is a consequence of the war on drugs. It is estimated that over 600,000 of the 2,300,000 people in state and federal prisons are in prison for nonviolent drug offenses. This does not include the other 5 million people who are either confined in county jails or on probation or parole, a majority of whom are nonviolent drug offenders. This means out of a United States population of over 250 million people, over 7 million people are in one way or another under the supervision of the prison system.
July 22, 2009
The Prisoners of Conscience Committee is embarking on a six-month tour and education campaign around the planet called "You Can Kill a Revolutionary But You Can't Kill the Revolution." The purpose is to educate and re-inform people about the 40th anniversary of one of Black and colonized people's "September 11ths," the "Massacre on Monroe," where the U.S. government by way of the Chicago Police Department assassinated 21-year-old Chairman Fred Hampton and Defense Captain Mark Clark of the Illinois chapter of the Black Panther Party, at approximately 4:35 in the morning on Dec. 4, 1969, on the West Side of Chicago.

Ever since the police murder of Lovelle Mixon, after he allegedly murdered four Oakland police officers in East Oakland on March 21, the SF Bay View newspaper website, sfbayview.com, hundreds of messages have been written in the comment sections at the end of the articles by people who are undercover cyber police and people with strong pro-police sentiments, with some coming right out and saying they are members of police departments.

T-Kash, the former local television star from KRON's First Cut turned internationally known rap star on Paris' political label Guerrilla Funk Recordings, is a very under-rated voice and mind in Bay Area and international hip hop. His international debut, "Turf War Syndrome," is a classic that not many people in the hood are up on.

Hardworking is an understatement when you talk about Acktup, who has released a new album every three months since he started releasing music. All of his albums have sold at least a thousand copies a piece, with "1000 Degrees" selling 3,000 copies. "No Competition" and "King Mentality" is currently in stores, while he is still in the lab cookin' up "Mobbin Like Me," which is due out in August.

Use of Smart Phones
I honestly cannot believe we're having this discussion. The generation of "instant gratification" is now teaching in our classroom - God love them but phone use is inappropriate in the classroom. I always ask our staff, do you ever recall one of your favorite teachers on her/his cell phones during the school day? Of course not, it is a matter of professionalism. So many of us work hard to maintain high standards within our programs and professionalism in an effort to remove the stereotype of being "babysitters" in child care, and putting phones away and focusing on the children is a big part of this.
As a parent I would be most upset if I was picking up my child from child care and staff were on their phones. I'm not paying good money for you to be checking personal emails, texts, etc.

More Progress for Equality in Delaware: House Approves Marriage Legislation
April 23, 2013 by Karl Bach, Senior Regional Field Organizer
We're one step closer to marriage equality here in Delaware: the state House of Representatives just passed HB 75, the bill giving loving gay and lesbian couples the freedom to marry, by a 23-18 vote.
Rep. Melanie George Smith has been a true ally in leading the fight to get this legislation passed. Next, the Senate will vote on the legislation, and then it heads to the Governor's desk for signature. Governor Jack Markell is a stong advocate for equality, and he's vowed to sign the bill into law.
We've been on the ground in Delaware working around the clock to make sure lawmakers hear from their constituents and know just how strong the support for marriage equality is. We'll make sure we keep working until all loving and committed same-sex couples in Delaware have the freedom to marry.
A strong majority of Delaware voters – 54 percent – support marriage equality. Prominent religious, civil rights, corporate, and labor leaders in the state also support the legislation.
If you live in Delaware, it's not too late to reach out to your lawmaker and encourage them to support marriage equality.
To learn how you can get more involved in the campaign to win marriage for gay and lesbian couples in Delaware, email Karl at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Brazilian low-cost carrier Gol has applied to Brazil's National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC) to expand its operations at Campinas-Viracopos International airport near Sao Paulo, the base of domestic rival Azul-Trip.
Gol says it plans to begin six new daily flights from the airport from 1 September. Five of these will be to Rio de Janeiro Santos Dumont and the remaining flight will be to Brasilia.
"With the expansion project at Campinas airport, we identified an opportunity for the company to grow in the region, absorbing the demand from cities such as Limeira, Jundiai, Piracicaba, Itu and Sorocaba, among others," says Eduardo Bernardes, Gol's commercial officer.
Gol already operates an extensive number of flights out of Sao Paulo Congonhas and Guarulhos International airports. It flies non-stop to Brasilia, Belo Horizonte, Curitiba and Rio de Janeiro Galeao International airport from Campinas-Viracopos.
"Our aim is not to get passengers from Sao Paulo to depart via Viracopos, but to make the entire network of the company and its partners available to customers from Campinas and the region," says Bernardes.
The airline is looking at offering bus services from some of the cities near Campinas-Viracopos to make it more convenient for passengers to get to the airport, he adds.
Azul-Trip, Brazil's third largest carrier, is based at the airport, where they operate more than 700 flights weekly combined, schedules in Innovata show.

Riot you need to address this quickly.
I have played over 1800 LoL games and have NEVER accused anyone of hacking. But for the first time ever I can confirm 100% that there are now hacks in this game.
I encountered a player by the name of SuJoBot. He was playing jungle amumu on the enemy team.
Everything was going fine, our team was winning, everything was normal.
Then during one teamfight in the centre of the map, SuJoBoT could not be hit. Our whole team used abilities on him but nothing hit his character model. Then he disappeared. We thought oh, maybe its weird lag from all of todays server issues. But none of us were lagging, we simply couldnt hit him.
Then he started teleporting on top of towers and meleeing them a few times, becoming immune/untargetable to all dmg (including towers) and then disappearing entirely.
He started to do it for teamfights. We would have entire areas warded, his team would start to approach us (he would NOT be visible). Suddenly, as they got close, a fully immune amumu would appear on top of us, ult our entire team, and the rest of his team would rush in on us. There is no possible way he could have come from anywhere. Midway through any/all of the teamfights he would stop moving, become 100% immune to all dmg, and disappear from our view in the blink of an eye.
His team did not speak during this entire thing. We tried getting a response from them as to what they were seeing him do on their end, but they would not reply. I suspect some of them may be friends and are involved.
Finally, as they were pushing our inhib towers, my game crashed. My game never crashes. Ever. I tried to rejoin multiple times but could not. 5 minutes later, it went to the end-of-game screen and I had a short chat with the hacker. He basically admitted his guilt, and told me he would "see me tmrw sucka".
Please Riot check into your stuff, for the good of your own game this needs to be fixed asap and I know you dont want this kind of **** in the game.
TL;DR - There are officially hacks in this game. I am not making this up, not rage posting or anything. After 1800+ games played, I've finally seen a hacker and there is no doubt in my mind whatsoever that I am correct. My entire team saw it, witnessed it, and fought against it.
Riot needs to read this.
Wieners Revenge
i'm not calling you a liar... but it seems weird that you didn't even give his name or anything... surely you took screenshots or at least wrote down his username?
Kirby Killa
Screenshots, Bro. We need them. Pics are somewhat required for haccusations of this type.
wheres your lolreplay?
You are gonna need proof bro
Junior Member
@ Wieners Revenge
I did give his name. Re-read the post.
@Kirby - I have a screenshot that I will be sending to Riot. I could post it on here, but Riot doesnt usually like it when you "call people out" and post SS's of games. If a red posts and asks me to post it, I will do just that.
fists of fury
xXCFXx Odin
Yeah, sounds like hacks to me.
There's no truth without a picture

They are everywhere. Okay, not quite. But they're working on it. The ubiquitous, St. Louis-based Pasta House chain is frequented for a lot of reasons. But, for the most part, it's a word in their name that turns out the diners: pasta. The noodles, the sauce, the sides. At Pasta House, pasta's not all they do, but it's what they do best. You think they do it a little bit than anyone else.

Macy's broadens last-minute holiday shopping program to most of its stores across U.S.
December 6, 2012-- Home Textiles Today,
Cincinnati -- Macy's is expanding its annual last-minute shopping marathon to stores nationwide, as the retailer said it plans to open most stores for 48 consecutive hours for its last scheduled One Day Sale in the final weekend leading up to Christmas.
The event will start at 7 a.m. Dec. 21 and will run through 7 a.m. Dec. 23. And though the One Day Sale offers are set to conclude at 7 a.m. on Dec. 23, Macy's stores will stay open for business for the remainder of the day - most until midnight.
Peter Sachse, Macy's chief stores officer, explained that this expansion marks the first time ever that Macy's will keep most stores open around the clock for the last weekend of holiday shopping, "an expansion of our successful marathon that began at select stores in 2006."
Macy's began its tradition of keeping its doors open 24-hours with Macy's Queens Center six years ago. Macy's added additional stores in subsequent years, and last year offered customers the opportunity to shop outside regular store hours in 14 locations that were open 24-hours and in 27 locations that offered extended hours.
This year, select stores will continue this tradition and stay open beyond the One Day Sale through store close on Christmas Eve on Monday, Dec. 24 at 6 p.m.
"We hope to make it easy for our customers across the country to finish their shopping at any time of day or night, and with the benefit of the great deals and value they count on from our One Day Sale events," Sachse said.

Paddling to Prague
... decided to go kayaking. Jess went and organised a two-person raft for the shorter 1-2 hour trip (the longer one takes 3-4 hours and goes to the next town), while I had a brief lie down - I wasn't feeling 100 percent - and within seconds I'd completely fallen asleep. I only woke up when Jess came back into the room to say that the raft was all ready to go. We were quickly briefed on where to start and where to finish, we jumped in the raft and away we went. The river is divided up ...
Flat out in Cesky Krumlov
... After the tour we walked down by the river to watch some of the rafts and boats come through the rapids and then took a look at some of the galleries in town.
We returned to the restaurant at the Eggenberg Brewery for an early dinner. We mixed sausage wrapped in bacon with horseradish and mustard, and grilled Camembert and cranberries with the Argentina-Belgium World Cup quarter final and another litre of the Eggenberg dark beer.
It was a good night.
Three Borders in a Day
... we arrived at the Czech border, and you can see this on the photo, the road changed from being reasonably good quality black tarmac to old grey cracked concrete. Immediately the sides of the road featured fruit sellers with rickety carts, people walking around with no shirts on, and soviet era buildings. I expected there to be a difference between the Western Europe countries and the old Eastern Bloc countries, but with the Czech Republic having been in the European Union ...
WOW is all I got!
... older than when Britain first discovered Australia. The tour ended with the dance music hall. This room was my favourite, the wood floors were amazing and the paintings around the entire room gave the hall this incredible atmosphere, it would be great to experience the hall with live music. The walls are covered by paintings of distorted people, with wonky heads or walking on their hands, one in particular had a hat on that made him look like his head was upside down on his body. All ...

... wall which would have even had the Asians giggling. Our first weir successfully in the books, we continued drinking those marvellous half litre cans of 6.5% Czech ale. Perhaps it was the alcohol but we soon found ourselves in tune. Never before has the Vltava experienced the docile tones of Kevin Bloody Wilson sung with such gusto "Do you **** on first dates, does your dad own a brewery", we beamed. One or two more weirs and seven or eight ...

The scourge of Amalek is upon you,The seed of Amu hath oppressed you
They hath urinated upon you and made you eat feces
They know not Ra
They are the enemies of Asar,they hath defiled your tombs
Violated your women and made victims of your little ones
They hath befouled the writings of Thoth
They hath burned sacred papyri,they hath cracked open your heads
Smashed your teeth and gouged out your eyes
They hacked off your limbs and thrown your mutilated bodies
Towards the heavens mocking Ra
Let not their seeds multiply among you
Honour not their wretched little Gods
Crawl not on your bellies before them,war shall you make upon them
Plague and pestilence shall you call down upon them
You must destroy their seed utterly,you shall gash them with flints
You shall gore them with sticks,hack off their testicles
And cut their phalluses to pieces,suffer none of them to live
Dismemberment and slaughter shall you perform on them
The mighty Sekhmet will devour them
The chain of Sut is around their neck,Horus hammereth them
Nepthys hacketh them to bits,the eye of Ra eateth into their faces
Their carcasses will be consumed in the desert
The seed of Amu with perish utterly
Their filth shall never breed among you again
We shall blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under the sky.

Now that the annual madness known as CES has passed for another year, it's time to focus on the next big electronics show.
And for someone who has never covered the show or traveled to Europe, I can't wait for Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2012, which takes place Jan. 31 to Feb. 2 in Amsterdam. "Wicked" excited, as we say in my Massachusetts neck of the woods.
When I went to CES for the first time, I was intrigued but I had also heard so many horror stories about how crowded it is that it colored some of my anticipation. Plus I'd been to Las Vegas, so it wasn't exactly a fresh experience.
Last year after we launched Commercial Integrator, I was pretty thrilled to attend my first InfoComm. The show was described to me as bigger than CEDIA and not quite as large as CES—but without it being a zoo. The event lived up to the billing, and was extremely pleasant as far as tradeshows go; last year it was in Orlando, and I'll be happy to head to Vegas this June for the warmer weather and less craziness than January's CES brings.
Integrated Systems Europe was billed to me as InfoComm and CEDIA pretty much rolled into one. That's fine by me, because I enjoy both shows.
And that should be even better for commercial integrators—including residential integrators who do work in the commercial space, which is becoming increasingly common. If they have the means (not counting the locals) and the time, what better excuse to visit Europe? You can go to the show, check out the latest products, take some education sessions, do some networking, and maybe build in some vacation time.
At last check, there were more than 800 exhibitors listed on ISE's website. Heck, the show is so big that even some European arms of integration companies are setting up shop there with a booth, like Electrosonic and Verrex.
There are 18 CEDIA education courses, including three certification exam opportunities, and 34 InfoComm sessions with chances to earn CTS accreditation.
If you're not already up on the latest in 3D, digital signage software, super-high-res projection, networked A/V, video conferencing and more, ISE figures to overflow your knowledge bucket with whatever you want to know.
I've been perusing the many press releases from exhibitors (we'll have a product preview slideshow forthcoming), and you can expect to see plenty of innovation. In related news, there's a dedicated Digital Signage Hall to the vendors in that surging sector.
I can already see a couple of the education sessions, like "Real World Stereoscopic 3D Applications" and "Unusual Display Applications" as potential big hits with attendees.
Plus as noted, ISE looks like a nice break opportunities for the super-busy integration community. If you're not going this year, start planning for next year. As a Europe newbie who can't be away for too long, I grabbed some extra time to squeeze in a day each in Germany, Luxembourg and Belgium (hey, wanted to christen my passport as much as possible).
The only downside? If you book extra travel time at the back end of your visit, you might end up watching the Super Bowl in the middle of the night. But if my anticipation is correct, that 12:30 a.m. kickoff will be well worth it.
Are you heading to ISE? Let us know, and why, in the comments section.

In Topic: walkdown linebackerbacker/stand up end
13 February 2010 - 10:18 AMJust to add on to the outside containment part, a good technique to use is what we call wrong-arming the blocker. If they're running a sweep at you, you'll most likely have a guard coming straight off of his line's heels at you, so you'll need to take him on while keeping your outside arm free. What you do is engage the oncoming blocker's backfield shoulder with your inside arm, which squeezes the inside gap but gives you outside contain.
Also if the play is going to the opposite side, don't just fly blindly after the ball, it will be your responsibility to watch for reverses, misdirection, etc. so stay disciplined.
I'm guessing with this much run support up front you'll have two deep safeties and two backers so the main responsibility of the ends will mostly be run support and pass rush, although you may be asked to take out any backs flaring to the flats.

Ugandan orphan choir wows crowd at Bolton church (From The Bolton News)
Ugandan orphan choir wows crowd at Bolton church
12:11pm Monday 24th February 2014 in News By Jeremy Culley, reporter
A UGANDAN orphan choir wowed a 360-strong Bolton audience on the latest leg of its annual world tour.
The eight to 16-year-olds attached to the charity Watoto, which arranges housing and schooling for children whose parents have died of poor sanitation or HIV, performed at the Kings Church in Millfield Road.
The Concert of Hope was a combination of music and stories from the children about their experiences growing up in poverty in Africa, before Watoto's intervention.
Watoto's founder, Marilyn Skinner, also visited Kings Church last week to tell parishioners how she came to start the charity, which is based in Uganda's capital Kampala.
Chris Case, from Kings Church, said: "I thought it would be really good to profile it and make people aware of what they are doing.
"All the children are orphans and most have been since they were very small, because of HIV and other diseases.
"It is so inspiring to see these guests that have come from such poor backgrounds, and their attitude is delightful."
Kings, which is based in an industrial unit in Millfield Road, Breightmet, has a long-standing association with the choir.
Mr Case said: "This will be the fourth time that Watoto has visited us.
"It is a nice opportunity to get a positive story in the press, and the journeys some of these children have made certainly are that."
Watoto's choir embarks on a five-month fundraising tour of the world every year, with different children in the group each time.
At their various calling points, every child in the party stays with a local family.
There was no ticket charge for the Kings Church concert, but a collection was held, the proceeds of which were donated to Watoto.

I need advice from my dog and cat people readers
Hi all! I want to research different pet insurance companies prior to Levi's annual exam this year. I know I've read about some of your experiences on your blogs, but I would love to hear recommendations for companies and any positive or negative experiences you might be able to share. Levi thanks you!

That kind of day
Here is what I brought to the check-out at the grocery store yesterday. Do you think the checker judged me? School has been really rough for the last six weeks or so and just when I thought things were getting better, they got bad again. I wish I could get into it, but better that I don't. Schnucks has the best bakery cookies ever. I would have taken an actual picture of my purchases, but I stuffed the two cookies down my mouth-hole the second I sat down in the car. Well, at least the beer was light.
What are your guilty pleasures when things get rough?

My handsome male Saturday night visitor
Before I talk about my handsome visitor, I wanted to update you guys on Levi's Canine Good Citizen (CGC) status. Or lack thereof. Unfortunately, the big man did not pass his first attempt to be a CGC. I was at a symposium all weekend, so I was unable to cheer him and Jason on. Levi actually did really well on the items we expected him to have trouble with. He passed supervised separation and did not react to a large man in a giant wheelchair. In fact, Levi passed 8/10 of the items. Which ones did he fail? Loose leash walking of all things!!! If you've ever seen Levi walk, you know that he is not a puller. In fact, we are usually way out ahead of him, especially in the summer when he's hot and lazy. So why did he fail? He was sniffing the floor and Jason couldn't get his attention. Levi knows commands like "look at me" and "touch," but apparently the floor was just too interesting. For the same reason, Levi also failed the 'come' item. Apparently he stopped short about a foot from Jason and started sniffing the floor. I'm really proud of him though because he did well with things we thought would be scary for him and the items he failed are things we can definitely work on for when he retests in June.
So, back to my handsome visitor. A few weeks ago, a frightened little pit mix named Cal came to Stray Rescue's shelter. He came from what I'm guessing is a high-kill animal control facility, where he was on death row for being aggressive and unadoptable. Stray Rescue decided to take him in and give him a chance. It was the first time I'd really met a pit bull there that was not completely lovey with people. He was very scared and barky. But he improved so much every week. On Thursday, I took him on his short walk and sat with him in his apartment. After a little bit of time, he was brave enough to take a stuffed ball from me and we played a bit. Such. A. Doll. I asked Jason if we could take him home for a sleepover to get him out of the shelter and show him what it's like to be loved.
Since we don't know anything about his history, we had to do a slow introduction with him and Levi. We took Levi to the shelter and did the side-by-side walking business and slowly brought them closer. How did it go? Well, I think this picture says it all.
Cal loved Levi. He is actually rather submissive and performed a lot of mouth-licking appeasement behaviors on Levi. And of course Levi loved Cal because Levi loves every dog he meets. Cal loved attention from us too; his tail did not stop wagging like crazy the whole time we had him. This was quite different from the reception I usually get from my aloof dog! I only get tail-wags like that when I come home! But Cal was so happy. Seriously, look at this guy's face.
Basically, they spent all afternoon, evening, and the next morning playing. And playing some more. I loved seeing Levi so happy with another dog and loved seeing Cal come out of his shell. To think that he was almost killed just breaks my heart! I mean, several stuffies might have met their demise, but other than that, fun was had by all.
This was Cal's favorite toy. It's basically an 'egg baby' that squeaks that you stuff inside a penguin for them to take out. Well, penguin died awhile ago, but we still have the egg babies.
They also chased each other around my mom's big yard
And nibbling on each other's faces, which was apparently enjoyed thoroughly by all
Seriously, look again at this face! I can't stand it!
What's that, you say? You wish you could see Cal and Levi in action for yourself? Here you go!
If you don't want to watch it all, just check out the bitch slap Cal gives Levi at around :18.
And finally, Cal doing his army crawl. So cute.
We were sad to have to take him back to the shelter on Sunday, but we gave him one of Levi's toys as a keepsake. What a great boy! He is looking for his forever home or a foster home. You can fill out an application here if you are interested. That is if we don't snatch him up first;)

Our Engagement Story
I don't believe I've ever shared our engagement story on here. Four (!) years ago yesterday, Jason surprised me with the most thoughtful, romantic proposal. Here's the story.
Here we are just after the proposal. I asked a passerby to take this photo.
We had been dating almost two years and we talked about getting married and had even looked at rings together. I was just waiting for the proposal to happen. I even looked at his phone once to see if there were any ingoing or outgoing calls that might tip me off. Bad, I know. I'm not usually like that, but I plead drunkenness in this case. Anyway, I kept waiting for it to happen and thought maybe when I go down to Florida with my family?
I've been lucky enough to go to Boca Grande, Florida with my family pretty much every year since college. I have a great number of happy memories from the place. Jason couldn't go on the trip with me, so we bid our farewells at the airport. I got down there that night and remember talking with my sister about when it might happen. I even said to my mom, "he's not coming down here, is he?" And typical of my mom, she exclaimed, "HERE?!?! Where would he sleep?" Touché, mom. I know she's not that good of an actress, so she and my sister totally convinced me that this was not the time.
My brother-in-law had plans the next day to have a business meeting in Tampa, so he left for the day. I spent my time with my sister and her two boys and my parents. I even took a long walk on the beach with my mom and she was very quiet. I chalked it up to me being talkative and irritating. My parents were staying in one house with friends and I was staying in a condo with my sister and her family. My sister was growing increasingly angry that her husband had not returned from the business meeting yet. When he finally met us at the pool, they had a fight that was extremely awkward for all of us watching.
I was supposed to go to dinner that night, so I got all ready. Then my sister asked if I would go to the beach with her at sunset to take pictures of her baby. Of course I would! As we walked onto the beach, she told me she had to go back for a blanket because it was chilly. So, I waited there. As I looked down the beach, I see someone approaching. Is that person Jason? I looked back at my sister and she smiled and walked away. I knew then that it was finally happening! I don't even remember what Jason said, but he proposed to me right there on the beach at sunset. I think the first thing I said after saying yes was, "who's watching the birds?" His mom, who was kind enough to do so, in case you're wondering.
When we got back to the condo, my sister had champagne waiting for us. We then went to the house to see my parents. When I flew back to St. Louis with my dad after the trip, I asked him what his favorite part of the week was. He told me, "the look on your face when I opened the door." I'm getting choked up just thinking about it. Anyway, I found out that EVERYONE knew we were getting engaged, including my parents' friends, my aunts that were also in Florida, and even my brother in Maine. The fight my sister and brother-in-law had? All an act. He had gone to pick up Jason at the airport and had driven him back to Boca, then hit up a bar for some food and drink. Then they squirreled Jason away at the house while my parents' friends gave him liquid courage. My dad was the one to take him to the beach. Everyone was so quiet that day because they were afraid of saying something to spoil the surprise.
I then found out that my parents had made reservations for us at my favorite restaurant on the island. But that's not all! My mom had purchased champagne flutes for us, tied with ribbon, and had decorated the table. And there was more champagne waiting for us at dinner. We had a great dinner, went across the street to thank my parents (who were dining with their friends at another restaurant) and then went out to the only "bar" on the island and just had fun. When we returned to the condo, I found gorgeous flowers on my nightstand courtesy of my sister. What a day. I wish I could go back and do it all over again.
Of course the proposal itself was incredibly thoughtful and romantic, but the fact that Jason incorporated my family into the event meant the world to me. There aren't words to describe how touched I was that so many people put so much thought and planning into something for me. And the fact that I lost my dad the next year makes the memories that much more special. It was the last time I was in Florida with him and what a way to remember that last trip.
So, let me share with you some pictures.
Here we are just after the proposal. I asked a passerby to take this photo.
Back at the house with my parents:
So excited to see our table at dinner
We used the champagne flutes at our wedding
And Jason surprised me by carrying them to Belize for our anniversary dinner last year. I didn't even know he had brought them until I saw them sitting on the table.
Later on in the night after more champagne than I (and Jason, obviously) care to remember
The bracelet Jason is wearing also had significance. While he was preparing for the proposal with my parents' friends, one of them gave him this "friendship bracelet."
He also wore it at our wedding
The gorgeous flowers my sister got for us
Jason didn't get to stay the whole week, but we made the most of the time he had there. It was so much fun showing him around the island and sharing with him a place that was so special to me.
Sigh. What fun it is to relive one of the best days of my life. Thanks, Jason, for making it so special for me.

Gripping Films
Forget the films honored by the Academy last night! I'm about to reveal the most riveting movies shot in recent history! These films have action, a hero and a heroine, insightful narration, suspense, and water! All this courtesy of Monty and Lola with (nasal and Midwestern accented) commentary by moi. And if you listen closely, you will hear Monty's "quacks" of delight.

Hot or Not? Adam Levine
I just assumed Adam Levine of Maroon 5 was one of those men that all women (and some men) swoon over until someone informed me (Joline?) that she didn't think he was hot. And I was like, "what, what WHAT?" So, that is how he got to be featured in our latest installment of hot or not. I'd like to hear some solid reasoning from people who do not find him attractive. The man is walking sex, people. He also writes baby-making music. He has more sex appeal in his ear wax than douchebag-extraordinaire (and voted NOT HOT by me) John Mayer has in his entire egotistical body.
I like him with long hair
But I love him with supershort hair
My one gripe is that he seems to be a big fan of the tank top. I do not approve of tank tops on men, but I'll let it slide in this case. I know some of you are going to say that he's too skinny or wimpy for their taste. But I'll use his frequent donning of the tank top to illustrate that he's very fit.
Though I prefer him in a t-shirt.
And those you still not convinced should check out the red-hot video for "This Love," which features some steamy scenes with his then-girlfriend.
So, let me know what you think. I think you know how I feel!

Heat Wave
We had one this past weekend! Okay, not really, but that giant yellow orb in the sky was visible for once and temperatures rose above 40 degrees. It was bliss. Levi enjoyed the weather because he got to sit outside and watch Jason work on his long-neglected bike. Although Levi might be embarrassed that I'm telling you that yesterday might have been "too hot," as he struggled up the last hill on his long walk. I even enjoyed something called running, an action I used to be very familiar with, but have been too stressed/tired/feeling sorry for myself to do as much as I should be. When is that half-marathon again? I hope all the locals enjoyed the break from the clouds and dreariness! I wouldn't know because I'm WAY behind on my Google Reader.
He also enjoyed sitting in the sun. I moved the chair after snapping this photo and put his bed in its place so that he could be comfy.
Speaking of Levi, he did great in his first CGC class last week. He aced all the tests we practiced, but we didn't get to the supervised separation. That will certainly be a challenge. Unfortunately, the two trainers are women and Levi is much more comfortable around women than men. We'll have to bribe some "friendly stranger" men to greet him between now and the test. I also realized that I have a workshop at the zoo the weekend of the test, so Jason will have to be Levi's handler that day. Hopefully Jason can muster sufficient energy and enthusiasm to keep a mellow dog like Levi on task. You can do it, Jason!
I also got some footage of Monty taking a bath for you all, but haven't uploaded it yet. I realized Monty has gotten no video love on the blog and I know you Monty fans would appreciate seeing how irritating he is as he tries to soak my sleeve by running up and down my arm, in and out of the water.

Measure P Construction Update - Montclair HS
Citizens' Oversight Committee Quarterly Update - April 2014
Dear Parents, Students and the Montclair Community:
Welcome back to Montclair High School, the home of the Cavaliers! The 2014-2015 School year is around the corner. I hope you are having a great summer and enjoying time with your family and friends. This will prove to be an exciting year as we have several facility upgrades that will occur on campus: New shade structures in the quad, pool area, and PE area. Our turf football field will be completely redone with a superior product installed. Our Montclair logo will also be placed in the center of the field. A state of the art press box will also be added to our stadium on the south side of the field along with 1000 additional seats. We anticipate the construction of a brand new swimming pool as well. In addition, our parking lot will have solar paneled covered parking. The process of installing air-conditioning for the cafeteria and auditorium will begin this year.
We continue to add more Advanced Placement and Honors courses. Along with our premier National Demonstration AVID curriculum, our students will be challenged and prepared for the future. MHS continues to have more students fulfill the A-G requirements to be eligible for UC or Cal State University admittance. Our athletic teams are very competitive and will fight for league championships! Students have a multitude of opportunities to be successful through our activities and after-school programs. For these efforts, we have been named by US News and World Report as Americas Best Schools for 2 years in a row.
I encourage all parents and students to peruse the information found in this website and to periodically check back for updates, including upcoming important school events. We are excited to continue with our web-based communication system School Loop. School Loop allows our parents and students to connect with our teachers and their upcoming assignments and grades with a click of the button. Get registered today! Please take advantage of this powerful system to ensure that our students are successful. Some important fall semester upcoming dates are:
This site contains valuable information regarding the school calendar, policies, and procedures along with important athletic and activity dates. I also want to encourage every Cavalier to attend school regularly and establish a homework routine that will foster academic success. As is the norm here, Montclair High School offers an extensive after-school tutoring program, and it is not unusual to find several hundred students seeking out assistance and working on homework after the conclusion of classes. With this in mind, students and parents need to work closely with the teachers and counselors here and keep abreast of their progress. Also, all students need to consider participating in an extracurricular activity, be it athletics or clubs. As should be noted, research shows that students that are active in activities while in high school perform better in their studies. Plus, this is a great way to make new friends and get involved in campus life.
My hope is that you will positively meet the challenges that lie ahead as we undertake this journey together. Have an exciting and productive year. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact the school at 909-621-6781. You may reach Mrs. Candelaria in the Principal's office by asking for extension 2021.

"Getting the job done"? I think a matter of perspective is in order: The Democrat party has an overwhelming House majority in their caucus -- 253 members. Yet, for this bill the best Pelosi could muster is 219 votes. This is akin to a general outnumbering his adversary in troops and guns, yet barely being able to eke out a victory. A good House Speaker should have been able to push this bill through with margins to spare, but was unable to keep her own troops in good order. In reality, the Republican party was essentially an onlooker to this process, shut out and powerless to do much except annoy. The real obstacle to the Democrats were other Democrats, which shows the Speaker's INability, rather than ability.
I'VE never been impressed by Nancy Pelosi, or Harry Reid either. In a Congress of hackish mediocrities, they seemed to get to the top by having truly sterling qualities of hackish mediocrity. But Lexington last week gave Ms Pelosi her due, as so many are doing this week (Lex had the courage to stick his neck out before the bill's passage was assured). As he put it, she knows how to count noses.
Why did I discount her, and why are most of us in the press focusing on "Barack Obama's achievement", not Mr Reid's or Ms Pelosi's? Simple: we probably over-value verbal fluency. Mr Obama is, of course, a magnificent speaker. Whatever jokes about teleprompters Republicans might make, he can be funny, professorial or soaring, as the need arises. He's as good off the cuff as he is on the podium. And he has a sense of timing; he got to soaring just in time, as the battle over health care came to a close.
Ms Pelosi and Mr Reid are both the opposite in every way. Ms Pelosi's speeches could be written by a robot programmed with the proper liberal clichés, and a robot would deliver them with more grace and charm. Mr Reid is a little less off-putting, but clumsier too, more prone to a gaffe than Ms Pelosi. They make terrible television. I've said before, and we've said many times in the newspaper, that Mr Obama's greatest mistake in his first year was giving too much of his agenda over to Congress. The institution is hugely unpopular, and with leaders like Mr Reid and Ms Pelosi, it's no wonder why.
But my lesson is this: being a good speaker is a great talent, but it's one that journalists, as professional writers or speakers, over-rate. Organisational skills may be just as important, or even more so. An unnamed source present for Ms Pelosi's thumb-breaking sessions called her "scary tough". So it seems. I'm still going to cringe every time I see her speak. But I think I'm going to try to discount every great speaker I see in future just a bit, and give the stumblebums on the stump a more thorough look.

Comments about Jabra® 100-47200000-02 Cruiser2 Bluetooth Speakerphone:
It had good sounds but I thought it would turn on and off when I got in and out of the car. It would turn off but not back on when I re entered the car.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
