In a previous report the authors and their co-workers found treated prevalence of schizophrenia in the lowest social class 11 times more frequent than in the upper class. The present paper analyzes this striking distribution. From our data it may be concluded that the difference is not due to downward social mobility. Tabulating approximate treated incidence of schizophrenics (patients in treatment for less than 1 year) we found that approximately twice as many schizophrenics occur in class V than in classes I and II combined. At the more chronic levels the ratio between upper- and lower-class schizophrenics is much higher. We found 31 times as many schizophrenics in class V as in classes I and II. This increase of chronic patients in class V appears to be related to significant differences in treatment. Our data demonstrate that schizophrenics in the upper and middle classes enter treatment earlier than those in the lower class. The upper- and middle-class schizophrenic is referred for treatment through medical channels; the lower-class schizophrenic through legal ones.The schizophrenic of the upper and middle classes is more likely to be treated by psychotherapy; the lower-class patient by organic treatment and, in far too many cases, he is not treated at all. The patient in the upper and middle classes has a greater chance of being discharged to his family and community than has the lower-class schizophrenic. Implications of these findings for the pathology and therapy of schizophrenia need to be discussed more thoroughly than space allows us here.

The Washington press corps is in hot pursuit of "Obama scandals," stampeding officials into various rushes to judgment while missing the bigger scandals underlying the excitement du jour, such as the systematic abuse of federal tax-exempt status for secret political donations, as William Boardman notes.
Tag Archive for Tea Party
The Right's 'Scandal' Funhouse Mirror
Exclusive: Official Washington is captivated by the image of Obama "scandals," including Benghazi talking points and extra IRS questions posed to Tea Party groups, but journalists are peering into the Right's funhouse mirror which for decades has made big scandals small and small scandals big, says Robert Parry.
The Right's Re-Branding, 1860 to 1776
Exclusive: A new poll says 44 percent of Republicans believe "an armed revolution" may be needed in the next few years "to protect liberties," proof of the Right's success in re-branding itself with Revolutionary War symbols and fueling paranoia about the elected national government, Robert Parry reports.
The Power of False Narratives
Exclusive: The defeat of a modest gun-safety bill in the Senate is further vindication of Orwell's cynical observation that "who controls the past controls the future" since the American Right has persuaded millions of Americans that a false narrative about the Second Amendment is true, says Robert Parry.
The Right's Second Amendment Fraud
Exclusive: The Senate has beaten back a filibuster from Tea Party Republicans to block debate on possible gun-reform laws in the wake of last December's massacre of 20 first-graders and six educators in Connecticut. But the setback won't stop the extremists from continuing to twist the Second Amendment, says Robert Parry.
The GOP Knows Power
Special Report: Today's Republican Party doesn't believe in democracy, at least not when an election is decided by the votes of blacks, Hispanics, Asian-Americans and young urban whites comfortable with multiculturalism. Then, the outcome is deemed illegitimate and deserves obstruction, as Robert Parry explains.
Making 'Other America' Fail
Exclusive: Behind today's fight over government spending is a bigger struggle for U.S. democracy's future, pitting the traditional white-ruled country against a new multicultural nation, or the Right's Real America against Other America. To win, Real America must make Other America fail, says Robert Parry.
Tea Party Extremism and the 'Cliff'
With a late-night vote, the U.S. House of Representatives approved a partial plan – negotiated by the Senate and the White House – to avert the "fiscal cliff," but most House Republicans voted no, with Tea Partiers continuing to flaunt their nihilistic extremism, as ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar notes.
The Scandal at FreedomWorks
The Tea Party sold itself to millions of Americans as a movement driven by principle and a rejection of the petty corruption that is part of Washington's business as usual. But a key Tea Party organization has descended into exactly that sort of self-serving bickering, says Michael Winship.
The Right's 'Limited Government' Scam
Exclusive: Libertarians and Tea Partiers pretend they are the only Americans who believe in "limited government" as envisioned by the Framers, but that is a false conceit. The real history is that Madison and Washington devised a Constitution with broad powers to promote the "general Welfare," says Robert Parry.

It's been over a year since my last real blog post, so this is gonna be a long one. Grab a protein shake and get comfy.
Exactly one year ago, I started the journey that would change my life forever. I decided to stop the madness and take back my life. I had weight loss surgery.
On 11/1/12, I had a Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy. Basically, I had 85% of my stomach removed, leaving me with a banana-shaped "sleeve" of a stomach, which enables me to eat what everyone else is eating, but just less of it. I also had a hiatal hernia repaired at the same time. My new stomach size is permanent and unless I break the rules (i.e. drink carbonated beverages, drink and eat at the same time, etc.), I will not stretch out my remaining stomach.
Many people told me that I didn't need weight loss surgery. "You're not big enough to need that." But I did. I needed it desperately. I dressed for my body and fooled everyone (including myself) into believing I wasn't as big as I was. I hid it well, or at least I thought I did. I tried every other diet I could think of, mostly Weight Watchers and I lost weight – and then I gained it back, plus some. I had to stop the gain/lose/gain/lose cycle. I also had co-morbidities (high blood pressure and high cholesterol). I needed this surgery. It was truly my last resort.
Weight loss surgery isn't for everyone, nor is it a miracle solution. It's a tool that must be used properly to achieve its intended benefit and purpose. Contrary to popular belief, it is NOT an easy way out. In fact, it's the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. It takes TONS of hard work, diligence, and dedication to adapt to this new lifestyle and overcome the challenges that come with it. And trust me, there are challenges, most of them mental, but challenges nonetheless.
For the first several months, I ate exactly what I was *supposed* to eat – high protein, low carb, no cheating. I now allow myself one to two days per week, where I eat pretty much whatever I want, within reason. I still struggle with this, because I'm SO scared of going back to my old habits. True, I can't consume the AMOUNT of food I used to eat, but I can eat all the *wrong* foods (i.e. high calorie, low density foods, such as chocolate, chips, crackers, etc.). By eating high calorie foods, I can quite easily make that scale creep back up. But, I still want to live life and not worry about every single morsel. Again, this is a struggle for me mentally, and even on the days where I eat poorly, I record all those morsels, because I need to be accountable for my actions. If I gain any weight back, I need to look back at my food journal and see what I did, where I went wrong, what I was feeling, and where I can improve.
I use the MyFitnessPal app to record every single bite I take, as well as my exercise. I love holding myself accountable and I have several friends on there who help me when I'm struggling and I help them, too. It's really helpful to see other people's food diaries for ideas and perspective. We celebrate each other's successes and support each other when we're feeling down, defeated, scared, or sad. It's wonderful to have such an amazing support system, which I have found between MyFitnessPal, as well as a few online forums, full of people who have had the same surgery as I had. We understand what each other is going through on a level that cannot be understood by traditional dieters. I WAS a traditional dieter for years and years, but nothing compares to THIS journey.
I spent the first 9 months post-op working out 4-5 days/week. It became addictive in a good way. I knew I was gaining good health as I was losing the weight. I have since decreased my workouts, due to starting a new full-time job, having kids in activities, and just dealing with life in general. Honestly, those are excuses, but they DO make it harder for me to get to the gym. I make time for other things, so surely I can make time for my workouts, but I digress. I DO make a concerted effort to walk everyday, usually between 3-6 miles. I have a fairly sedentary job, so I use my entire lunch break to power walk, especially if I can't get to the gym that evening. It's a great use of my time, and makes me feel accomplished. I also went from barely being able to run for one minute to being able to run for 30+ minutes. I FINALLY ran a 5K just a few weeks ago, which has been a long time goal of mine. I continue to amaze myself with what I am capable of!
While going through the pre-surgery process, I was told I would never be hungry again. I would have to force myself to eat. I would feel stuffed with just a few bites. This has all proven to be completely untrue for me. Just another bump on the weight loss surgery road, I suppose. Granted, I am more easily satisfied than prior to surgery, but I still feel hunger. True hunger. And I don't get full in the traditional sense. Most weight loss surgery patients get what I like to call "buffet full" after just a few bites. I, however, can eat much more than that, especially if I am eating "slider" foods (i.e. anything that goes down easily and isn't dense, like crackers, chips, cereal, etc.). Even when I eat dense proteins, I don't feel full. I get hiccups and pressure/pain in my chest. THAT'S how I know to stop eating – not because I feel full. I miss feeling full. I miss the "stuffed" feeling at the end of meals. It's a feeling we aren't really supposed to feel, but rather we should just feel "satisfied." But being stuffed was something I LIKED, as shameful as that sounds. I expected my post-surgery stomach to be a surefire way of never overeating again, but as I said, I can always eat the wrong foods and for THAT reason, I have to work that much harder. Definitely not an easy way out.
"Head hunger" is a beast. Although my stomach is satisfied with a relatively small amount of food, my brain still wants more of what TASTES good. I still crave things that are bad for me. You see, I am a food addict, and I will struggle with this addiction for the rest of my life. With most addictions, if you want to quit, you can never touch the substance again. Food addiction is different, because you need food to live, so you can't just quit cold turkey. You need to choose the right foods and the right amounts to be healthy.
In the past, I've eaten my emotions. I'm a happy eater. A sad eater. A mad eater. An :insertemotionhere: eater. I want to be able to eat what I want at parties, gatherings, work functions, etc., but it's a slippery slope for me, because those events often start me down an old, dark, unwelcome path. This is where the tool is just that – a tool. It's not magically going to make me make the right decisions, the healthiest decisions. My brain needs to do that, and it's often a struggle to "do the right thing." I always felt insecure about how much I ate at social gatherings because I ate more than other people. Now I feel insecure about how little I eat at social gatherings because people expect you to indulge. It's an odd place to be, but oh so very worth it.
I hit my doctor's goal for me in less than 6 months. I hit MY goal in less than 8 months. I went from obese to "normal." Normal! Something I haven't felt for most of my life and I'm pretty sure that's still debatable. ;)
I've lost 90 lbs, but I have gained confidence, pride, and my life back.
I have been in "maintenance" for the past several months and have maintained between 88-90 lbs. lost, depending on the day. Maintenance is harder than I ever imagined. When I was in the losing phase, I was very motivated and I knew exactly what I had to do. I knew how many calories to eat, how much to burn, etc. Maintenance is a whole 'nother ball game. When I first hit my goal, I kept losing weight unintentionally. I was still working out too much and/or not eating enough. Either way, I was having a very large calorie deficit by the end of each week. I had to psych myself up to increase my calories and decrease the workouts, even just a little, to balance things out. The crazy thing is that once I started adjusting to the maintenance phase, increasing calories became easy, and it became easy to skip a workout, which is not really a good thing in my opinion. The balance is SO hard to find and the motivation isn't even close to what I felt while I was really losing. Everyone keeps telling me that I'm doing everything right and to just enjoy my new life now, but for me, there is a very fine line between enjoying and living my life (food-wise) and going completely off the deep end. Again, it's all about balance. My ultimate, long-term goal is to never be more than +/- 4 lbs. from my current weight and so far, I can say I have been successful with that goal.
Although LOGICALLY, I know I am small(er) now, I still have a very hard time believing it to be true. I take a TON of pictures, just so I can make side-by-side "before and after" collages, which is the only way I can REALLY see my progress. When I look in the mirror, I often still see the old me, which is frustrating, because logically, I know it's not true. When people who never knew me heavy tell me I'm thin or skinny, I really get a kick out of it, because they aren't just comparing my old figure to my new one. It sounds weird, but that really helps me. I post a lot of my pictures on Facebook, which to some, may come off a bit conceited. However, I am just AMAZED with how different I look, but more importantly, I'm PROUD of who I am – not just for losing weight and looking better, but for FINALLY taking control of my life.
There are triumphs and there are obstacles, but my triumphs make the obstacles worth every bit of blood, sweat, and tears I have put into this journey, and I celebrate ALL of it. Without the failures, the successes wouldn't taste nearly as sweet (pun intended).
I have learned so much about myself in this process. I've learned that I have the power to do pretty much anything if I put my mind to it. I've learned who my friends are – and who they aren't. I've learned there will always be haters and sometimes, they are the people who should be supporting you the most. I don't hate them back. I simply respect myself enough now to walk away from them. I've learned that I respect myself enough to feed my body healthy things. Not to say I don't treat myself occasionally, because surely, I do. But I eat more for HEALTH now – not as much for pleasure. I've also learned that while the number on the scale is somewhat helpful, it's not the final word in my health or how I feel. I've learned that being fit is MORE important to me than being small, although I am certainly enjoying my smaller figure! I think my favorite realization is that not only does my husband love me unconditionally, but so do my kids. My kids never ONCE mentioned my weight or how I looked when I was obese. Both of my children have told me I was beautiful from the time they both started talking and they STILL think I'm beautiful. And you know what? I think I finally believe them.
Happy one year surgiversary to me!
Here are my stats, for anyone who is interested:
Height: 5'6"
Starting Weight: 224 lbs.
Starting BMI: 36
Starting Size: 18/20, 2XL
Current Weight: between 135-137 lbs.
Current BMI: 22
Current Size: 4, Small/Medium
testing, testing…is this thing on? ;)
I know, I know, I haven't posted in over a month. My plate is fuller than full in more ways than one and I've let my blog fall to the wayside. Woops!
The kids are starting kindergarten in 10 days and I'm really feelin' it. I've had the joy of being home with them for almost 6 years and it's going to feel weird to NOT have them here.
It's not always fun. In fact, most of the time it's darn stressful. So much crying and whining — and the kids do a lot of this, too. ;) But I wouldn't trade it for the world! Never in a million years did I think I'd be able to stay home this long, and between finances and stress levels, it has been a struggle, for sure. But we've made it work because it was and still is important to us. I got to watch all my babies' firsts — firsthand. I am beyond LUCKY!
Sometimes I have to remind myself of how fortunate I am to be a stay-at-home mom. Ya know, between the yelling and all. ;) Mommy guilt is the BEST, isn't it? LOL! But seriously, I know how fortunate I am to have had this opportunity. Being a stay-at-home mom is the most stressful and most REWARDING job I've ever had. Being paid in kisses is worth more than all the money in the world. Raising twins is, without a doubt, the coolest, most emotional experience of my life.
I used to think that half-day kindergarten was silly, but now I am SO grateful for it because this will be my kids' first "school" experience since they didn't go to preschool. I really like the fact that we will ALL be eased into the new process together. Leaving my kids in someone else's care is scary and exciting all at the same time. No one and I mean NO ONE will ever care for them and love them the way Don and I do. I think I will probably have a harder time adjusting than they will. Isn't that always the way? :)
Don't get me wrong — I'm looking forward to having 3 hours a day to focus more on my business, clean out the attic, clean the house, post on my blog, and just generally enjoy the quiet. But I will miss my babies. Terribly.
So please forgive me for my sporadic posts. I promise to get back to it soon!
I've been really struggling with body image issues lately. That's partially why I've been barely blogging. The other reason is that life just happens and gets in the way sometimes. :)
I've always struggled with my weight, but lately it has really been a battle — mentally and physically. I want so desperately to lose the weight, and yet I still make many wrong choices. Human nature I suppose, but not good. I wish I treated my own body as well as I treat my kids' bodies. But for some reason, it's not that simple.
It's hard enough putting myself out there in the regular world everyday, let alone in the blogging world. But in keeping true to the point of my blog, I will continue to post outfit pix as much as possible.
And with that, here are some pix from SEVERAL weeks ago.

This is a hard post to write. I'm not even sure I should be sharing so much of myself, but part of me thinks it will be cathartic to do so.
25 years ago today, my dad passed away very suddenly and my life was changed forever. I remember that moment like it was yesterday, even though I was just shy of 9 years old. My memories of my dad get hazier ever year, but THAT moment is ingrained in my brain forever.
He was just 39 years old. He would have turned 40 just 2 months later.
I was about to enter 4th grade and my brother was entering high school. What should have been a fun, happy time, turned into one of the scariest times I can ever remember.
I didn't cry. Everyone thought I was weird because I didn't cry. Your dad just died, CRY! I wanted to. It just never happened. I think I was in shock — for a LONG time. My emotions came out in other ways, though, with daily stomachaches and I started writing. A lot. And I started pulling out my hair. Literally. One at a time, until I had bald spots all over my head. To this day, I still cannot stop "trich-ing".
My relationships changed all around me, too, over the next few years. Friendships ended abruptly and I didn't know why. I'll go ahead and blame myself and say I became "needy" and dependent, and maybe even a little depressing, but I didn't know it at the time. I was a kid. A hurting kid who needed friends.
Those were my formative years and everything that happened at that time made me who I am today. Those moments changed me forever. I am constantly in fear of abandonment. True, my dad did not abandon us, but the feelings of loss are still there. Coupled with ending friendships, I became introverted and scared to make new friends. I could have easily gone in the wrong direction, but instead I put myself into my schoolwork and writing. I was a straight A student because I could control that. I started a poetry club in high school because I just KNEW there were other kids like me who needed a place to go.
I dated someone for 2 years who was CLEARLY wrong for me. Everyone around me knew it. Everyone around me TOLD me. I never felt good enough. But I was lonely and he "got" me, because he had abandonment issues of his own. And even though he went down a VERY wrong path, he helped me to see who I was. And who I wasn't.
In spite of all that, I know I am a good person today. And I am THAT person because of my family. My mom was dealt a terribly crappy hand and she raised 2 children by herself because she HAD to. And being a mom myself, I cannot even IMAGINE what she went through. But she did it. And she did it WELL.
My heart hurts because my kids never got to meet the amazing man that would have been their grandpa. And he would have been AMAZING with them because there wasn't on a person on the PLANET who didn't adore him.
I wish I had some of my dad's qualities because he was truly a wonderful, adored and adoring person. At almost 34 years old, I am STILL figuring out who I am. And even though my kids never got to meet him, I see some of his qualities in THEM. They are funny and kind and that was EXACTLY who my dad was. It's funny because they say girls marry guys who are like their daddies, and I guess it's true because I married a wonderful man, who is extraordinarily funny and kind, and SO much like my dad. They would have been best buds.
I know this post was all over the place, but it feels good to get it all out.
Dad, I love you and miss you every single day of my life.
I haven't posted in awhile, but that's what happens with life and such. These kiddles, work, and the business are keeping me busy, that's for sure!
So back in my younger years (circa 1986 to 1996-ish), I would have done ANYTHING to be tan. I laid out by the town pool, slathered in baby oil, just waiting to fry. And I did. Burn, tan, peel, repeat.
But after MANY mole removals (most of them acquired over the last 2 decades), many of them pre-cancerous, I can safely say I am terrified of sunburn now and I cover myself in sunblock regularly. No tan is a good tan.
I now embrace my paleness. I'm so pale, I'm practically translucent. But that's okay. No tan is a good tan. :)

My baby girl had her adenoids removed today and as a surprise, we had the surgeon pierce her ears while she was under anesthesia.
It all started a few months ago when the allergist mentioned how huge her adenoids were and she told us to mention it to the dentist because sometimes it can affect the way the child's jaw forms. We actually had the kids' dental cleaning a few weeks later, and while I forgot to mention anything, the dentist brought it up on his own! He said because she can't breathe well and her mouth hangs open a lot, she's experiencing the beginning stages of something called adenoid facies. Basically her upper palate is VERY arched, when it should be more flat and it can enlongate the face over time from her mouth always hanging open to breathe.
So the dentist referred us to an ENT who immediately knew what her issue was and recommended surgery. He said it wasn't urgent, but it could ONLY benefit her. So we scheduled the surgery for today.
We didn't give her too much information ahead of time because she can be an "over-thinker" (like her mama). We didn't want her stressing out about this for any longer than necessary. So over the last few days, we gave her little tidbits here and there, with the bulk of the information this morning. She handled it remarkably well. The toughest part was that she couldn't eat or drink anything after midnight and her surgery wasn't until 1:30pm today! I think it's ridiculous to expect a child to go that long without even a glass of water, but they do surgery in age order and that's the time-slot she was given.
The hardest part for US was knowing our baby girl would be put under general anesthesia. Our son had two surgeries (one at 8 months and another at 14 months) and he, too, was under general anesthesia. It is SO hard to watch your child go under. Don did it for our son, but I wanted to be in there for our daughter today (they only allow 1 parent to be in the operating room until they fall asleep).
The surgeon walked us down to the OR, which was good because I think she would have lost her mind if they wheeled her down. When we got into the operating room, she got really scared and she started shaking a little and really clinging to me. She didn't really like sitting up on the operating table so they let me (fully gowned up, booties, cap and all) hold her on my lap in a chair and they gave her the mask to make her fall asleep. She cried but she went out pretty fast while I gently talked to her about all the surprises she would have when she woke up. I felt her body go limp and the nurses, doctor and I lifted her onto the operating table. They said we both did great. :) The anesthesiologist put in her IV after she was asleep, thank goodness. I gave her a kiss, told her I loved her and walked out to the waiting area.
She was done in under 40 minutes and the doc came out to tell us she did great. He said he spent more time making sure her earrings were in the right place. LOL! She'll be on antibiotics twice a day for 5 days but she has no restrictions as long as she feels well enough. So she is allowed to even go swimming tomorrow if she's up to it!
She woke up before they let us back to recovery, so I thought she'd be going insane not knowing where we were, but when we pulled back the curtain to her area, she was smiling at us. :) Such a trooper!
She was shivering so badly that I could hear her teeth clanking together. She was also super itchy, so I asked the nurse if she had been given pain meds in her IV and the nurse confirmed that she did, as well as 2 anti-nausea meds. She thought I was a nurse because I knew about the whole itching from pain meds thing, but I said I wasn't and I just remembered the feeling from some of my past surgeries.
Once she warmed up, she had a popsicle, a pudding, and an apple juice before we left. The only thing that really bothered her was the fact that she had an IV, but she was okay. Then a "touch therapist" came in and did some mild accupressure/touch therapy (Jin Shin Jyutsu), which she said is great for relieving pain naturally. Chloe played games on daddy's iPhone while the therapist worked her magic.
We were able to leave about an hour after being in recovery and she said the only thing that bothered her was a little bit of a sore throat, but nothing else. She had a little cough, but it was mild.
So back to the earrings. Back in the fall, Chloe had decided that she definitely wanted to get her ears pierced. She got all the way in the piercing chair, I signed the consents and when the girl went to swab her ears with alcohol, my daughter LOST. HER. MIND. She couldn't go through with it. So we dropped the subject and only spoke of it when she brought it up. In the meantime, she had been wearing the little stick-on jewel earrings, which were fine, but she was really torn because she wanted her ears pierced SO badly, but was terrified of the pain. She said she would love it if she could just wake up with earrings one day because then she wouldn't feel the "pinchy." And then a light bulb went off in my head. :)
A few weeks ago, I came up with the idea to ask the surgeon if he would pierce them for her while she was under anesthesia. I know, weirdest mother ever. But he said YES! See, you don't know unless you ask. :)
About a week ago, I told Chloe we were going to go buy the earrings so we could get her ears pierced when she was ready and maybe one day she would wake up with them already done. She was all about it and LOVED the idea! So we had the surgeon do it today.
She was exhausted tonight, but in such good spirits. She was less cranky than when she gets a cold. Hopefully it only gets better from here.
If you've read this far, bless you and thank you. For those of you who kept in touch via FB today, thank you so much. Your support means so much to me!
Here are some pix from today. :)
This was almost right after she first woke up. The giant mosquito-caused welt on her head looks awful, I know!
Enjoying a pudding while receiving touch therapy.
The note her brother wrote for her while we were gone. Twin love is just the best. :)
I have been working feverishly on my new line of tinted lip balms, aptly named "Luscious Lip Tints." I have reformulated my best-selling lip balm to be even creamier and glossier than before, with better staying power, and now with COLOR. And the best part? They're still vegan! Woo!
They're not for sale yet in either of my shops, as I am still gauging interest for color likeability purposes. :) I am, however, selling sample sizes (1/2 of the regular size) for only $2 each, which INCLUDES shipping. Don't be fooled — there is a LOT of lip balm in these tubes!
Here are a few shots of my new line!

I wore this to the Memorial Day parade in our neighboring town. It was 549080 degrees out that day and this was the best I could do. In hindsight, I would have stayed home in my air conditioned abode, but the kids were so excited to go to the parade that I couldn't disappoint them.
I don't handle heat well. I'm pretty sure it's a family trait. Way back in 1990-ish, we were up in Boston looking at colleges for my brother and my mom had severe heat exhaustion. I'm not sure I've ever seen her that sick and unable to walk. It was awful. Fast forward 22 years and I'm following in her footsteps. My heart races, I get cold sweats, a stomachache, and I feel like I'm going to pass out. My daughter and my niece can't handle the heat either. Cherry red, sad little sweaty faces. What's with us?
Anyway, back to the outfit. I'm fairly certain I will not be wearing this shirt again as it drove me INSANE all day. I look pregnant (and I assure you I am not) and it kept shifting all day. A-N-N-O-Y-I-N-G.
But like I said, it was the best I could do with 549080 degree weather. :)

I love mixing feminine (ruffles) with a little touch of flair (leopard). I've seen people in head-to-toe leopard, and while that's okay for some people, it's not in my comfort zone. But accessorizing with leopard is the perfect way to add it in without screaming, "Hey! Look at me! I'm wearing leopard!" :)
This might be one of my favorite looks so far!
In other news, we had an awesome weekend filled with dress rehearsals and dance recitals and lots of memories made.
Here's a shot of my tiny dancers from their photo session last week.
And one from yesterday before the recital.
I just can't get over how big my babies are getting. They're getting so tall, smart, and beautiful, and I'm just so proud of them. The growth is just astounding.
This is how they looked on their very first day of dancing school, just 3 short years ago. Look at all the curls between them!
And at their very first dance recital. I remember barely being able to get her hair up into a bun, but we did it! Now she has SO much hair! :)
Yup, I'm a proud mama. :) These babies have come a LONG way!

The first 4,000,000 digits of Pi, visualized in a single image
Pi is what's known as an irrational number, which means that its decimal representation is both infinite and non-repeating.
We've been using computers to calculate the digits of Pi for decades. In 1949, John von Neumann and his colleagues used ENIAC — the world's first general-purpose electronic computer — to calculate Pi to the 2,037th digit. We surpassed the million-digit milestone in 1973. And on October 17, 2011, after 371 days of computing, Shigeru Kondo finished calculating Pi to 10 trillion decimal places.
The picture up top is adapted from a rather simple but effective piece of data visualization, created by the folks at design studio TWO-N, which represents the first four-million digits of Pi in a brilliant mess of interactive pointillism.
Each digit, from 0-9, was assigned a color based on the legend pictured here, and then rendered as a single, 1x1 pixel. Line the pixels up in the order designated by Pi, confine them to a 4-millon pixel image, and you get this interactive applet here, which lets you soar around the entire image, inspecting 500,000-digit sections at a clip. There's even an interesting search function that lets you probe the mathematical mosaic for number up to eight digits in length. [TWO-N via information aesthetics]

The Mathematics of Beauty
The Fibonacci Sequence is a sequence of numbers where each number is the sum of the previous two—i.e., 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34…and so on to infinity. The ratio of one number to the next is approximately 1.61803, which is called "phi", or the Golden Ratio. It's not a magical mathematical equation of the universe, but it definitely reflects natural, aesthetically beautiful patterns. The ratio been used as the ideal proportion standard by artists and architects throughout history, and it's also found in nature because it's one of the most efficient way to pack things together. The human body can mostly be divided up in terms of the golden ratio, with one nose, two eyes, three segments to each limb, five fingers on each hand, and our measurements and proportions also reflect the ratio, especially the proportions of the human face—the width of the nose, position of the eyes, length of the chin. Our attraction to another person increases if their body and features are symmetrical and proportional, since we perceive them to be healthier, and so the Golden Ratio appears to be connected with humans ideals of beauty. It's worth noting, however, that although the ratio can create a beautiful face, it can't create a beautiful mind.

Newcastle dish out capital punishment at Spurs
Newcastle United put in a wonderful display in the capital today as they pulled off an emphatic win over Tottenham Hotspur.
Nicky ButtâÂÂs equaliser on the stroke of half-time cancelled out Darren BentâÂÂs opener with second half goals from Geremi, Michael Owen and Oba Martins making it a terrific day for the black and whites.
KK stuck with the team that had beaten Fulham last weekend with Owen, Mark Viudka and Martins all starting the game up front in an adventurous formation away from home â and it paid off in real style.
And Newcastle made a positive start to the game with a forward run by Habib Beye on four minutes causing havoc in the home sideâÂÂs penalty area.
Abdoulaye Faye picked out his fellow countryman wide on the right with the Senegal international making an overlapping run and after bustling his way into the box a half clearance was intercepted by Beye before the defender rifled a left-footed effort off the underside of the bar.
Spurs eventually cleared but seconds later Martins sprinted through to fire in an effort low down at Robinson.
In a bright start from Newcastle, Robinson had to be switched on to claim a long range effort from Jose Enrique with the England keeper struggling to deal with the bright sunlight.
But he dealt superbly with UnitedâÂÂs next chance on nine minutes as Joey Barton made a fine run before prodding an effort at Robinson.
Two minutes later and Spurs were incensed by Steve BennettâÂÂs decision not to award a penalty when Faye appeared to bundle over Robbie Keane.
Instead the Kent official awarded a corner and former Toon man Jonathan Woodgate was unlucky not to score after Harper made a great save low down from his close pal.
On 16 minutes a jinking run from Robbie Keane saw the Eire star find a way through but his wayward shot didnâÂÂt trouble Harper.
But despite all of NewcastleâÂÂs early pressure Spurs snatched the lead with 25 minutes played.
A right footed cross from Steed Malbranque on the left was swept into the box and Darren Bent rose highest to send a looping header over Harper and make it 1-0.
Two minutes before the half hour mark a fizzing shot from Berbatov flashed just over the bar with Spurs looking to add to their lead.
NewcastleâÂÂs next chance didnâÂÂt arrive until three minutes before the interval but OwenâÂÂs low shot from outside the penalty area went wide.
On the stroke of half-time though United did hit the target.
Nicky Butt scored for the second season running at White Hart Lane via a curled effort from outside the box.
EnriqueâÂÂs initial cross was headed clear by Woodgate with Geremi then feeding the former Man U star to equalise and set up his third goal in the last two games as Newcastle went in all square at the break.
In the second half it took United four minutes to threaten Spurs with a scuffed shot from Joey Barton clipping the base of the post.
Two minutes later Martins won a free-kick on the edge of the box to hand Newcastle a superb chance.
And Geremi certainly took it as he steered the ball home from the edge of the box to grab his first goal for the club and put Newcastle 2-1 up.
On the hour mark Geremi attempted another long range strike but this time it flew over the bar.
Viduka forced his former Leeds team-mate Robinson into a fine save on 63 minutes when he palmed away his curling shot after heâÂÂd latched on to GeremiâÂÂs deflected pass.
And from the corner Martinsâ downward header was kept out by the Spurs keeper.
But it was 3-1 with 65 minutes on the clock as Martins played in Viduka before the Aussie found Owen who clipped the ball into the net and beyond Robinson to give Newcastle a two-goal cushion.
With 17 minutes left Owen could have sealed it when he latched on to GeremiâÂÂs pass from the right but prodded the effort wide of the target.
KK made a change with 78 minutes gone as Alan Smith replaced Viduka.
Newcastle made it 4-1 though with eight minutes remaining as Martins raced through to put the lid on things after a great run after heâÂÂd latched on to BartonâÂÂs pass.

Fantastic. It finally looks like King Kev has turned things around. The only way is up from now. Howay The Lads!
I would've been delighted with a draw. Never dreamed we'd get a win. Theres only one Kevin Keegan :D
After a miserable week, in which I broke up with my girlfriend, and having been at work all day today on my birthday, thank you boys.
Well Done lads...
Must admit I feared the worst after going behind but was proved wrong in emphatic style!!
The thrashing of a london team on their own patch will help shut the mocking big smoke press up. Still want to go to spurs Zoggy?
Great result.
Were you watching, Jimmy Greaves?
Pity to hear Woodgate chose Spurs over us because he thought they were going places. Shame.
This was a wonderful performance reminiscent of the old days with KK.
Everyone played well but I must single out Viduka who led the line superbly and of course Nicky Butt who had his best game in a black and white shirt.
It's a long time since I've been so excited about our performance during a game-The King is back!!!
We have wonderful fans, wonderful owner, wonderful trainer, wonderful players. Thank you thank you thank you all. Its been so many years that i felt so excited watching my team playing like that.When Sam left i voted so many times for king kev's return that now i feel that it was really worth it and i believe only good days are to come . FROM AGHIOS NIKOLAOS CRETE GREECE YIANNIS MAZIS . NEWCASTLE UNITED FOREVER
BEING truthful,i have slated most of the newcastle players this season before today,none more so than barton....BUT, i have to say,ALL OF THEM played fantastic today,well done the lads,the mackems who i know text me saying they gave us the 3 points in exchange for a cheaper nzogbia.....i merely pointed out that this was down to one man.......KEVIN KEEGAN.
Yippee! Where did this performance come from?!! It would seem we could have scored several more but for superb saves by Robinson and rank bad luck. But who cares! We are nearly in the comfort zone and with Reading next Saturday and a similar attitude we could be twelve points clear of Bolton. Great to see MA singing his heart out at the end of the game!
KK's three pronged attack force is at last providing the results we all desperately want/needed.
Howay the Toon.
simple answer ...martins..owen...viduka...spurs couldnt handle them..what a trio
Ryder's reply: Indeed I can't get enough of gung ho style football even if it does mean conceding the odd goal or losing the odd match
Congratulations and thanks to all the players and staff. Superb. You've certainly all had your knockers lately - but matterless - you stuck your collective chest out this glorious afternoon and proved that you can't keep a good pro down for long!
The best thing was, on another day, it could easily have been 7 or 8 goals flying in at the right end - I have never been so glad to have a sore and hoarse throat (and apologies to my shocked pets who thought I was suffering several seizures as the goal haul mounted). I won't single anyone out - you were all magnificent. But I'd have loved to have seen the look on Big Bad Sam's face during that cavalier second half display. It would probably have been as ugly as the 'football' he had us playing there for a while.
So then, that's yet another 'double' over the Spurs - is it too much to think we can now look for the 'treble' - and pip them for the eleventh placed Prem finish??
Not based on this performance it's not.
Get In There !!!!!! well done lads great great performance, i couldnt believe what i was seeing, i cant wait till we expect to see things like that, Great to hear the toon fans singing KEEGAN IS BACK !! rather than the opposing fans taunting King Kev.. thanks lads, im a happy camper in little New Zealand this morning Yehaaaa !
Forget the long ball Big Sam is gone. Amazing result, simply brilliant...I am still trying to come to terms with it all! Who would have thought such a dominate performance would come about?? In London, Away and against a team with enough firepower to invade Iraq...we come out on top 4-1. Fantastic! I have been hosing Butt all season, but he proved me wrong...COME ON NUFC!!
Wonderfull team performance thanks a lot guys. Long time ago I wrote in this blog saying that we have a team at minmum good enough to be midtable and with slight possibility of European spot,our biggest problem was coahing that destroyed confidefence in our players. KK I salute you and sorry for doubting your ability to motivate the players, restore confidence and playing attractive football. It is almost like a miracle how suddenly the team looks like they can beat any body. The biggest turn around though is as result of KK removing the predictable 4-4-2 attack with 2 wingers that was not effective and introducing Martins and Viduka in a 3 pronged attack, playing like the top teams. Bring on Reading and lets keep winning.
just the tonic we needed, i'm 100% more optimistic about keegan & next season now. Southern press can stick that in their pipes and smoke it.
"capital punishment", tremendous lee.
a great result stemming from a massive team effort.no one shirking his duty butt played his socks off as did beye,enrique,owen not to forget geremi,i have bagged him in the past but he seems to have made up his mind to be the steadying influence.barton is again showing the kind of football we have been looking for and oba looks like he has a licence to terrify oppositions with his speed and tenacity all the lads need a big pat on the back good on ya you have all ...all made the toon happy
Great performance from the team. Team spirits high up in the sky even after a goal down and I swear that if Bent didnt head in one before us, the score line wouldn't have been like this.
We bounce back from behind and made Spurs' attacking like little kindergarden players. Spurs never got more than a few chances while we got some unlucky ones along with the goals that we throughly deserved.
Owen again showing good captain skills along with Butt. Owen going more defending role, passes and repossess for the two strikers waiting up front. Viduka heads up the ball as usual and showed a little more passing than he'd ever done here and Martins paces down, making the counter attack. Typical three way attack and an effective one too.
After yesterday's performance, it convince me enough to tell Zog he can go if he doesnt feel like staying put here, no point arguing over a player who wasnt going to commit to the club. He can enjoy the lights of London all he want; so long as he contribute to the war chest...
Barton have been magnificent as with Butt in midfield. Enrique needing a little more training in his crossing skills while Beye needs more training in reading the game.
Geremi have been two sided for me. He played well over the game but his weakness is certain; he waits too long with the ball under his feet before making a decision. On top of that, slow and immobile for most of the time. Overall, Geremi makes good passes and crosses but slow and can never take a corner even if he's life depended on it. No disrespect to him but definitely more room for improvement.
So now we've got a good heart of midfield, a strike force and dare I say it, a decent defense as well. What do we lack of now? A good left winger. It is understandable that 4-3-3 works is because our left side have been inconsistent the whole season. MU beats us a lot because C.Ronaldo plays more rights than lefts. The 4-3-3 formation is not a classic but it works because the players are gelling the formation. To me, the formation is actually 4-2-1-1-1, with the strikers changing the formation to 4-2-1-2 or 2-4-2-1, but that really couldnt be written down, right?
KK justified his position, now he need to prove that he can make good signing as well. Maybe he'd consider Reyes as a new left winger, or probably best to buy Bentley off Blackburn. Whatever he buys, remember that our midfield needs a lot of work so concentrate more on wingers and centrals.
Wonderful team spirit! Kevin Keegan's positive approach will now bear fruit. The entire team seemed to be enjoying themselves out there, and supported each other so well. Without buying a single player, Kevin is getting the best of his squad, having taken some time to assess. The rapport between fans/owner/ and players at the end of the game was heartwarming to see. There will be great times ahead! Well done to every single player out there - FANTASTIC!
Well cant really add much more to whats been said above, but well done lads. what a performance, didnt see the game could only listen on fivelive but for the first time in as long time stayed up to watch MOTD2 last night. We looked very dangerous upfront, i think the three strikers can take on any defence on there day and its fair to say yesterday was there day. Reading on sat which if we go by this performance should be a win and for the first time i think we can honestly look up and aim for west ham. There stuttering and we still have them to play. I am not worried about the lads getting complacent because i know KK will not stand for it. Looking forward to next season and a damn good KK reign.... COME ON THE TOON!!!!!
Did I give you stick last week fot getting carried away?
Forgive me, I apologise. Hold on tight we're in for a helluva ride.
woodgate was pulled around like a rag doll should have kept his mouth shut
Watched the game live on TV over here and couldn't believe what I was seeing. It wasn't so much the score line more the manner in which it was achieved, excellent flowing football when in possession, and true grit and determination when not. Very professional and controlled, I really didn't think this team had it in them. Let us all just hope we can maintain this standard and build on it in the close season.
Poor, Poor Tottenham Hotspur... Poor, Poor Tottenham Hotspur... Poor, Poor Tottenham Hotspur... and the Toon go marching On!! On!!! On!!!
Well it was a great day wasn't it and best I felt coming out of a 90 minutes as a Newcastle fan for a long long time.
Many of our former managers have spoken against us in astonishingly bitter attacks but it is finally being proven that having Keegan back is the best thing to happen to this club for a long long time.
We're playing much improved football and dominating posession across the whole park. With reading at home next and games against lower or middtable opposition we really can achieve the near impossible and finish top table. This would be a wonderful finish to what has basically been a waste of a season.
Well done Kev and the gang.
YouÃÅœve all reached the turning point and now itÃÅœs full speed ahead with the goal to surprise the world next season.
Viduka, Owen and Martins what a trio!
My 87 year old mother in law sitting in the same room as me, both(!?!?) watching the game, could hardly beleive her ears and eyes over my reactions and behavior during the game and after.
Did I behave well?? Honestly I dont know.

The NBA playoffs start Saturday after such a short and grueling season that resulted in poor play and a lot of injuries. Now the true test of who the best team is will be determined over the next 5 weeks.
The two teams with the best records from each conference, the Chicago bulls and San Antonio Spurs seem to be the Rodney Dangerfield of the league. Zero respect. The Bulls were dismantled with countless injuries during the 66-game schedule and still managed to finish with a very impressive 50-16 record. Derrick rose missed 27 games and this team never fell apart. In fact, despite all the injures this Bulls team only lost back-to-back games once. Think about that for a second. Countless back-to-back games and even having to play three games in three nights; this team only dropped consecutive games one time.
They won so many big games without Rose; Beating the Heat courtesy a D-league drifter in John Lucas III. Then beating the Heat again when Rose returned but shot a dismal 1-13, which led to him to being benched late 4th quarter in favor of CJ Watson. Watson only drained the game-tying 3 to force overtime and then made key baskets in the overtime to secure the win.
The Bulls exude team work. Nobody is above anything head coach Tom Thibodeau asks from this unit. In fact, Thibodeau has Rose's ear and respect. Think how rare it is for the star player waning to be pushed harder. Rose then demands the same from his teammates. Carlos Boozer, who has often been questioned for his lack of effort, has shown great commitment on both sides of the court. Now while Boozer will never be confused with Taj Gibson on the defensive side of the ball, just displaying more effort on help defense has opened eyes, including mine, who was his biggest detractor coming into this season.
However, with all that said about the Bulls, somehow teams feel they matchup better with the Bulls for the Playoffs. The one thing these teams can never match is the hard work, intensity and commitment that goes into achieving the best record for the second consecutive season in spite of said injuries. Rose, Deng and even Hamilton may not be 100% healthy, but they will certainly put forth an effort that is greater than that number. If they can make their free throws in the clutch, they will be the team others will regret wishing to have played.
The Spurs have been thought of as old for a few years now. However, after being bounced in the first round last year, they dusted themselves off and just dominated the regular season while resting their aging veterans sporadically. The key was how well the new blood stepped up and carried the load. Guys like Danny Green, Gary Neal, Tiago Splitter, Kawhi Leonard and even Patty Mills.
Greg Popovich did an amazing job of incorporating youth with the experienced age that contributed to multiple championships throughout the last decade. I was even guilty of saying this Spurs team has nothing left and it was time for other teams in the West to step forward and make it their time. However, the core group of the Spurs, Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili and even the baby of the group Tony Parker all showed they still have a will to win.
With that said, I continue to hear that teams like the Thunder, Lakers, or Clippers will be the ones representing the Western Conference in the NBA finals. From what I've seen this is not the same Spurs team, and I think losing in the first round last year made them hungry again. It also helps drawing the Utah Jazz instead of a team like the Memphis Grizzlies that just created so many matchup problems for them. I think this year the rest of the conference may be in for a rude awakening if they think this Spurs team will roll over and die come this postseason.

Householter: City cares about health department, citizens
By CHRIS HUNTER | Monday, July 08, 2013 4:33 PM
Salina city commissioners said Monday that the city's decision last week to pull out of the Salina-Saline County Health Department was not made without concern for the citizens who use the department.
Salina city commissioners said Monday that the city's decision last week to pull out of the Salina-Saline County Health Department was not made without concern for the citizens who use the department.
"To assume the city did this because we don't care about the citizens is not accurate," said city commissioner Aaron Householter. "We feel so strongly that we were willing to take a risk. We cared so much were going to build them a building that would be the best use of the taxpayer money. The county said they aren't interested.
"At some point, we have to take ourselves out of the equation," Householter said. "The county kept saying it was their decision to make."
Householter and other commissioners responded to comments made by
Salinan Elizabeth Bonilla, who told commissioners "the covenant between citizens and the commission" had been broken by the city's decision to give notice to the county it intended to back out of the joint Salina-Saline County Health Department at the end of the year.
Bonilla said the decision was made in haste and without the knowledge from citizens that it was an option city commissioners were looking at.
"This decision would take Salina back to the 1950s," Bonilla told city commissioners. "We would regress instead of being the progressive city we have been."
City commissioners made the decision to give the county notice that it would back out of the agreement at the end of the year and hoped the city and county could work out a new agreement. The next day, the county rejected a city proposal to build a new $3.7 million to $3.9 million health department with the county required to pay only $500,000 -- the cost of repair of the old building.
Commissioner Randall Hardy said the Salina-Saline County Health Department is unique since most health departments are run by counties.
Bonilla said services would have to be cut because of the strained county budget.
"Remember the next time voting comes around, the county commissioners, John Price and Jim Gile, said they won't cut services," Householter said.
Bonilla urged city commissioners to work something out with the county.
"Our door is open, the county could come back and say, 'look at this option,'" Householter said.

PORRLAND, Ore. (AP) -- The Nike Hoop Summit, an annual game between the nation's top high school seniors and young international players, is set for Portland's Moda Center on April 12.
Portland has hosted the exhibition each year since 2008. Players who have appeared in the event as youngsters include Kevin Durant, Kevin Love, Dirk Nowitzki and Tony Parker.
The U.S. team, selected by the USA Basketball Men's Developmental National Team Committee, is expected to be announced later this month. The United States lost the past two Hoop Summits to the international squad.
The U.S. team fell 112-98 last year, despite 22 points and seven rebounds from Jabari Parker, who went on to play at Duke. Jean-Charles Livio of France had 27 points and 13 rebounds for the World team.

"Why is it that whenever someone says 'with all due respect', they really mean 'kiss my ass'?"In an unquestionably hierarchical situation — often with legally enforceable prerogatives — a junior argues with a senior. The junior has very good odds of being right, since he is confident despite what his senior thinks, or says he thinks. The more diffident the junior is about making the objection, the more likely it is that he is right (and objecting out of the purest sense of duty). Sometimes the junior merely keeps his complaints to himself, and his displeasure is merely manifested non-verbally. The senior may have to order him to express his views — repeatedly; he may decline "with respect" the first time. Conversely, may sometimes be used to show that the senior is about to engage in a reckless or not-by-the-books action. The Bad Boss will view this with disfavor, even if he ordered it; a Benevolent Boss will take it as a sign of good spirits and sense in the subordinate. If he slaps it down and his superior is present, the odds are good that his superior will approve, and insist on it. This can lead to some interesting tensions afterward. A common Military Trope. Fire Forged Friendship may lead to this; the junior having won the superior's respect in combat, the superior will listen. The Old Retainer is prone to it, because criticism must be delivered properly. Other servants may also engage in it. The Stock Phrase has variants, include "With respect" and "With all due respect." When followed by some slang or curse words, the result can be Sophisticated as Hell. Or, combined with an otherwise clean derogatory comment, it may be used to double as a Stealth Insult and/or Parenthetical Swearing, implying that the superior is in fact due no respect whatsoever, as shown in the page image. Compare You Are in Command Now, where a junior may accidentally give a senior an order, and Friend or Foe, where the junior does not know whether the senior is who he claims to be. See also My Master, Right or Wrong where the junior's sense of ethics (or sometimes just his sense) constantly clashes with the senior's lack thereof, though he still follows. Often said by a despairing Commander Contrarian. See also Rebellious Rebel, where this may occur in the lead up to the rebellion. Contrast Right in Front of Me. See also That's an Order.

Announcing the Advisory Commission Subcommittee Workshop Meeting for the Herring Cove Beach to be Held Monday December 17 2012
Contact: George Price, Superintendent, 508-771-2144
Superintendent George Price announces that the Cape Cod National Seashore Advisory Commission Subcommittee will hold a workshop meeting for the Herring Cove Beach Revetment and Parking Project Environmental Assessment.The meeting will occur on Monday, December 17, 2012 from 9 to 1 PM.The meeting will be held at the Provincetown Center for Coastal Studies Lab, 5 Holway Avenue, in Provincetown, MA. "The Cape Cod National Seashore Advisory Commission Herring Cove Beach Subcommittee will begin to discuss public scoping comments, coastal science, engineering, and policy issues.This will be the first meeting of the Subcommittee and they will also discuss their procedures and work plan. The workshop meeting will be primarily for deliberations of the Subcommittee, however, there will be an opportunity for brief public comments," Price said.
The Herring Cove Beach in Provincetown, MA is one of six life-guarded, improved beaches managed by Cape Cod National Seashore. Wave action in late December caused damage to the asphalt revetment near the bath house, sections of the north parking lot, and coastal areas near the south parking lot. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts developed the Herring Cove Beach facilities in the 1950s which include: a one-mile macadam revetment (seawall); two parking lots; and, a bath house and concession stand that will be replaced this year. Herring Cove Beach is of special concern to the citizens of Provincetown and other park visitors.
The purpose of taking action is to develop a long-term plan for the Herring Cove Beach revetment and parking in consultation with agencies and the community. The plan will identify the values of the beach and its importance to visitors to the national seashore and local residents. The sustainable outcome will be based upon sound coastal science and engineering practices, be responsive to shoreline change, projected sea level rise, and visitor use.
Did You Know?
Because of coastal erosion of 3 feet a year, the sea has threatened historical landmarks over the years. A few examples of those moved back from the edge include the Old Harbor Life-Saving Station, the Three Sisters, Nauset, and Highland Lights, and the French Cable Hut.

Ask a Question
One of the more unusual (but still fascinating) exhibitions at Bletchley Park is all about the role pigeons have played in the First and Second World Wars. Aircrews used them as rudimentary black boxes, writing their coordinates on a message and releasing the pigeon if they had to ditch or crash land.
There was also a cull of birds-of-prey all along the south coast during World War Two to ensure the pigeons could get back safely.

Yup this is pretty awesome

We've all been friends with a couple like Carrie and Brody once in our lives. The type of couple that professes their love for each other, but can't go one night without a public fight. The two might have a connection, but they are clearly better off without each other, yet impossible to separate. This week's "Homeland" delivered the much anticipated reunion of Carrie and Brody, but clearly there isn't a white picket fence in store for those two.
The action started back at the CIA safe house where Brody is suffering from symptoms of heroin withdrawal. Brody is in such bad shape that he even loses control of his bowels. Definitely not the same guy who was elected to Congress. Actually considering the recent cocaine bust in congress he might fit right in. Anyway the timetable for his withdrawals is a problem because Saul needs Brody for a mission in less than a week.
Because F. Murray Abraham always plays the creepiest roles, Dar Adal is the one who comes up with the solution to Saul's problem. There is a special drug that can speed up the withdrawal process, but the user can suffer from extreme hallucinations. Saul goes ahead with giving Brody the drug, and the worst thing he sees is Tom Walker singing the Marine Corp song. That's not a normal thing to experience, but not on the level of "extreme". Brody's response though to the drug is out there. He stabs his arm repeatedly with a broken chair before Saul restrains him. Now Carrie and Brody share another thing in common with arm wounds.
Speaking of Carrie, Saul visits her recovering from her bullet wound in the hospital. Before he arrives the Doctor tells Carrie that she is lucky the bullet avoided bone, but she knows it was due to Quinn being a great shot. The Doctor also brings up her pregnancy, and Carrie reacts like she was asked what time it is. She's still refusing to face the situation of her pregnancy. Saul arrives with news that Brody is in custody, and he needs her to convince Brody to work with them.
The plan Saul has in mind involved Brody defecting to Iran, and then getting a meeting with the chief of Iranian Intelligence. Brody will assassinate the man, and thus allowing Javadi, the CIA's mole, to take control of the Iranian power apparatus. Carrie's big appeal to Brody is taking him in a car to see his daughter Dana in her new post "my dad is the most famous terrorist ever" life. Turns out Dana is working at a motel cleaning lady. Brody reacts with anger that Carrie would bring him this close to his daughter without letting them see each other. He still refuses to help.
Even later when Saul has his super spy's throw Brody into a body of water at night, he just sinks to the bottom. His will to live has been sapped. While Carrie and Saul work on Brody the man who bugged Saul's house is revealed by Virgil and Max. Turns out the guy is not only a Israeli Agent, but he's working on behalf of Senator Lockhart to monitor Saul. The guys even get photos of the two men meeting for a lunch date. Saul orders his guys to pick up the Israeli and detain him in a dark hole.
Carrie's plan for once again turning Brody revolves around secretly bringing him to meet Dana again at the motel. Their reunion doesn't go very well, and Dana begs her father to never see her again. He's done enough destruction to her life already. Brody returns with Carrie knowing that the Iranian play is his only chance to redeem some of himself. This is his one shot to be the man he once was.
Saul buys more time for Brody by using the info he has on Senator Lockhart. Lockhart agrees to delay his confirmation hearings if Saul keeps quiet about his domestic spying. The time is necessary because Brody needs to train for his mission. In sixteen days Brody goes from a heroin addict to Captain America. He's running around the base, shooting targets, and memorizing Playboy Centerfolds. He seems ready by TV standards for a mission of this magnitude.
The episode ended with Carrie and Saul sending off Brody to begin his mission. The last parts of season three will hinge on this plan, and even though they had an exfil plan for Brody, you get the feeling this is a one way trip for the guy. Carrie had a moment with him where she could have revealed her pregnancy, but she kept quiet. I was yelling at the TV, like a terrorist Rocky Horror Show, for her to come clean. Maybe she didn't want to cloud Brody's brain before the mission, or maybe she's still not ready to admit it to herself.
Next week the mission is on to infiltrate Brody into Iran. That shouldn't be hard because with Brody's looks he will fit right into the Iranian countryside. Oh wait…

well, I think it's actually less about the lip color than it is about the texture! for school, I'd opt for long-lasting stains. they look more "low impact" than, say, a bright red lip a la Jason Wu SS12 (which was gorgeous, by the way) but still have a great color payoff and make a (subtle) statement. my favorite pigmented but sheer colors are Cover Girl Nature Luxe Balm in Anemone, Tarte Lip Stain in Coy, Amused, or Lust, and all of NYC Color's lip stain markers!
so many answers to that question! the nerd in me loves the ever-evolving science and technology; the girly girl in me loves the colors and playing with makeup; the girl scout in me loves helping people.
