"Gangs in the Garden" - Black Moth Super Rainbow
Between school, two student organizations, an almost full-time job, a newspaper, and being in the midst of an especially great slate of new albums (as well as all the time spent bragging about business, as well as the time taken to call oneself out for business bragging), new music falls through the cracks - even new music people are specifically asking me to listen to.
Black Moth Super Rainbow strike one of the chords of bizarre I love to listen to, regardless of where my opinion of the album falls (though this one is pretty high). Upbeat, weird pop teeming with electronic shenanigans - if you enjoy music of that ilk at all, yet somehow missed the new Rad Cult-released BMSR album (I mean, it's called Cobra Juicy).

In 1997, I was a senior in college at Florida State University. I had been excited to hear that the president of Asbury Theological Seminary, of which my pastor was a graduate, was coming to give a series of messages over the weekend at our church, Killearn United Methodist, in Tallahassee, FL. At that time, the president at Asbury was Dr. Maxie Dunnam.
Our whole college group, several of whom would eventually go on to work in a variety of roles in churches and other ministries–including some who would eventually go to Asbury and become pastors, eagerly filed in for the Friday night session. It was an inspiring night for all of us, and we looked forward to more throughout the weekend. Saturday morning was even better.
However, on Saturday afternoon, our lives changed. Read the rest of this entry »

Standard Definition Video
These 2 ladies are excellent as to their work and this video demonstrates this and their techniques, I was glad I bought this.

While the information in this video is very well done and the presenters very well prepared, I found myself often saying, "Eunny Jang already covered this information on Knitting Daily..." I watch Knitting Daily as often as I can, and I had already picked up all but one of the techniques demonstrated in this video directly from that show. Again, I found this a very useful video for anyone who has no idea how to start knitting Fair Isle or Stranded Knitting in the round, but it is not appropriate for anyone who already has experience in this area.

Coming Out Queer and Brown by Naomi Littlebear Morena
"i agree, me and my 'brother' both been screwed by the system, but when he starts screwin' me he is the system and when white liberals start telling me to 'take it but don't shake it' they're the system too."
(via girlsandgifs)
(Source: medusasseveredhead)

"Heterosexuality has been forcibly and subliminally imposed on women. Yet everywhere women have resisted it, often at the cost of physical torture, imprisonment, psychosurgery, social ostracism, and extreme poverty."
01 5 / 2012
"Without (hetero)sexual abuse, (hetero)sexual harassment and the (hetero)sexualization of every aspect of female bodies and behaviors, there would not be patriarchy, and whatever other forms or materialization of oppression might exist, they would not have the shapes, boundaries and dynamics of the racism, nationalism, and so on that we are now familiar with."
01 5 / 2012
"A vital part of making generalized male dominance as close to inevitable as a human construction can be is the naturalization of female heterosexuality. Men have been creating ideologies and political practices which naturalize female heterosexuality continuously in every culture since the dawns of the patriarchies."
01 5 / 2012
"Female heterosexuality is not a biological drive or an individual woman's erotic attraction or attachment to another human animal which happens to be male. Female heterosexuality is a set of social institutions and practices defined and regulated by patriarchal mores, values, and law."
01 5 / 2012
"Being a Lesbian means ending identification with, allegiance to, dependence on, and support of heterosexuality. It means ending your personal stake in the male world so that you join women, individually and collectively, in the struggle to end your oppression. Lesbianism is the key to liberation and only women who cut their ties to male privilege can be trusted to remain serious in the struggle against male dominance. Those who remain tied to men, individually or in political theory, cannot always put women first. It is not that heterosexual women are evil or do not care about women. It is because the very essence, definition, and nature of heterosexuality is men first. Every woman has experienced that desolation when her sister puts her man first in the final crunch: heterosexuality demands that she do so. As long as women still benefit from heterosexuality, receive its privileges and security, they will at some point have to betray their sisters, especially Lesbian sisters who do not receive those benefits."
30 4 / 2012
"Life can be better for women — economic and political conditions improved — and at the same time the status of women can remain resistant, indeed impervious, to change: so far in history this is precisely the paradigm for social change as it relates to the condition of women. Reforms are made, important ones; but the status of women relative to men does not change. Women are still less significant, have less privacy, less integrity, less self-determination. This means that women have less freedom. Freedom is not an abstraction, nor is a little of it enough. A little more of it is not enough either. Having less, being less, impoverished in freedom and rights, women then inevitably have less self-respect: less self-respect than men have and less self-respect than any human being needs to live a brave and honest life."
30 4 / 2012
"I'm here to say that the war against women is a real war. It's real. There's nothing abstract about it. It's not ideological, although it includes ideology. And people fight on the ground of ideas, yes. But this is a war in which his fist is in your face. And that's real. And that's true. And freedom means that that doesn't happen. You see, we walk around saying it didn't happen today or it hasn't happened yet. Or I've been lucky for the last three months. Or, oh I found a good one now. Nice one, he won't hurt me too much. He may insult me a lot, but he won't hurt me. And maybe it's true and maybe it isn't. But we have to find out how to stop men from hurting women, at all. Under any circumstances."
30 4 / 2012
"Everything that didn't happen to you — I apply this to myself as part of the way that I survive — everything that didn't happen to you is a little slack in your leash. You weren't raped when you were three, or you weren't raped when you were 10. Or you weren't battered, or you weren't in prostitution, whatever it is that you managed to miss is the measure of your freedom. And the measure of your strength. And what you owe to other women. I'm not asking you to be martyrs. I'm not asking you to give up your lives. I'm asking you to live your lives, honorably and with dignity. I'm asking you to fight. I'm asking you to do things for women that women do all the time in political struggle for men. Right? Women put our bodies on the line in political struggles in which both sexes are involved. But we do not do it for women. I'm not asking you to get caught. I'm asking you to escape. I'm asking you to run for your life. If you need to run through a brick wall, run through it. If you get some bruises on your arms, it's better than having him give the bruises to you because you were standing still. None of us has the right to stand still."
30 4 / 2012
"The only way we can come out of hiding, break through our paralyzing defenses, is to know the full extent of sexual violence and domination of women. It is knowledge from which we have pulled back, as well as knowledge that has been witheld from us. In knowing, in facing directly, we can learn how to chart our course out of this oppression, by envisioning and creating a world which will preclude female sexual slavery. In knowing the extent of our oppression we will have to discover some of the ways to begin immediately breaking the deadly cycle of fear, denial-through-hiding, and slavery."
30 4 / 2012
"The fact is that men need women more than women need men; and so, aware of this fact, man has sought to keep woman dependent upon him economically as the only method open to him of making himself necessary to her. Since in the beginning woman would not become his willing slave, he has wrought through the centuries a society in which woman must serve him if she is to survive."
28 4 / 2012
Queering Women Invisible
"My interest with regards to this post is on queer identity, why taking T has become popular and mainstream within queer culture, how the gender queer ideal has perpetuated the mainstreaming of T consumption and why this is problematic on a number of levels, including making women and lesbians invisible and the impact of body modification substances and surgery. Aside from the physical harm caused by body modification substances and surgery, the transitioning of women causes serious harm to our identities as women and as lesbians, invisibilises and erases our experiences and undermines our ability to organise collectively against male supremacy.
As women, we are socially conditioned to be perpetually concerned with our bodies and our image and constantly bombarded with messages about how we can change our image and our bodies to fit male constructed ideals. There are a range of body modifying substances and surgeries presented to women to apparently make us look hotter, cooler, thinner and younger.
Most of these body modification measures in the mainstream heterosexual world have been sold to women to enhance patriarchal femininity, that is men have defined what women should look like to suit their needs and keep women subordinate."
28 4 / 2012
"Feminists who want to dismantle gender, because they see it as a product of male dominance, do not "trans" gender, they simply get over it. Transgenders are so attached to the notion of gender, albeit to a different one in which they were brought up, that they spend huge amounts of time, energy and money to acquire the gender of their choice. Transgender politics are fundamentally conservative, dedicated to retaining the behaviours of the dominant and subordinate classes of male supremacy - masculinity and femininity."

The Miami Heat defense fell below par again, this time giving up 121 points to the Atlanta Hawks in a 121-114 loss Monday night.
With a team-wide effort, the offense wasn't the problem. LeBron James scored 30 and Chris Bosh has 21 points and seven rebounds in the defeat. Shane Battier made all three of his three-pointers and Ray Allen was a perfect 4-4 from downtown. Chalmers also booted in 17 points.
That same effort wasn't shown on defense.
Spoelstra on D: "A through Z, there just wasn't a lot of pride on that side of the court."
— Ethan J. Skolnick (@EthanJSkolnick) January 21, 2014
Some of the problem could be Miami's shaky rotation. Without Wade, the Heat often experiment with some funky lineups. Tonight, for example, Miami played with Allen, Norris Cole and Roger Mason Jr. on the wing–not exactly a stellar defensive front.
However, effort and focus is the self-admitted problem (see quote above).
There is no excuse for allowing seven Hawks players to score in double-digits.
Tomorrow night against the Boston Celtics, the Heat will have a chance to avoid back-to-back losses for the third time this season.
"We have to play much better tomorrow night. We have to defend the way we're capable of," said coach Erik Spoelstra after the game.
The Heat have the sxith-worst defense in points per possession since the New Year.

text: Truck Crash Injures Two Illinois State Police received a call just after 3pm Thursday to a reported accident North of Galesburg. A truck tractor was traveling Eastbound near mile-marker 42 when the vehicle crossed over the right shoulder and struck the guardrail. The truck continued its path until striking the 2200 North Overpass four miles north of Galesburg. 54 year old Kenneth Berry of Carmichael, California and 51 year old Mario Morgan of Turlock, California were taken to the hospital for undisclosed injuries. District-Seven Trooper Jason Wilson tells WGIL the wreck is still under investigation."Due to the injuries of the driver the investigating offers didn't have a chance to speak with him before he was transported from the scene so they're hoping to get a hold of him today to actually find out what happen to cause this crash."According to Wilson, the scene had been nearly cleaned-up as of Friday morning. Wilson says investigators still need to measure what initially caused the vehicle to lose control. No other parties were injured in the crash. 11 30 12 by Newsroom News management powered by Xpression News

I found this man on 7th Avenue in Park Slope. He was leaning heavily on his cane, looking down, wearing a grimaced face. I felt bad for him, so I smiled and waved when I walked past. His face changed completely. He lit up, smiled wide, and gave me a cheery greeting. There was nothing forced about it. He seemed like a man who went through life looking for the smallest excuses to be happy.
I walked 50 feet down the sidewalk, turned around, and walked back to him. "I want to take your photo," I told him, "because of how big you smiled when I walked by."
He said: "Well I saw someone smiling at me who I didn't even know. So I thought: 'By God! I Better do something!'"
Love everything about this

Yeah, what can be better than banging in the shower early in the morning! Astonishing clip!
This booty teen deserved a massive facial cumshot. She sucks this dude's cock to get his cock deeper in her ass.
This brunette is so fucking skillful. Look how she sucks this dick! It is something amazing!
Since Megan's parents were away, she decided to spent a fucking afternoon with her boyfriend. First she stripped to her panties and gave him a sloppy blowjob while he cupped her big natural tits, and then she got banged and received a facial. Check her out!

Today was the last "Lunch and Learn" at the Health Resource Center. For so many in our community, it was a sad day. The center was a valuable asset to Kershaw County and will be dearly missed. A big thank-you to the wonderful staff.
I am compelled to write this letter after reading the letter that was written by Officer Christopher Phillips in the Chronicle-Independent on Friday, May 20, 2011. He was writing from the standpoint of being a member of the Kershaw County Sheriff's Office staff. I'm writing from a citizen of Kershaw County's view. This has been a hard week for a lot of people, especially our law enforcement officers. I was really grateful, happy and sad after reading his letter.
My wife and I have been volunteering for more than four years at KershawHealth. On Tuesday, May 17, 24 working people were let go. Through no fault of their own they were released of their jobs. My wife and I immediately resigned because we think we are taking jobs away from those workers. The hospital is very happy with their volunteers because it doesn't cost them anything. I loved volunteering at KershawHealth but volunteers should be suspicious that they are not being used by the hospital instead of the hospital hiring workers.
"We the People." These important words are celebrated as the opening salvo in a historic experiment in constitutional democracy, an experiment that we in this state live every day. We are partners in this strong process.
At the Town Green event a couple of weekends ago, I had a lengthy conversation with Councilman Pat Partin about council's vision to grow Camden. He suggested that I get a copy of the Camden vision plan, so I would be informed. At his suggestion, I got a copy and I studied the plan recommendations which, as Mayor Jeffrey Graham stated in the Chronicle-Independent, "It encapsulates hours of citizens input along with the opinion of professional city planners. It is a combination of where our citizens said they want our city to go and what steps we should take ...
I was very disappointed in your recent Noted and passed comments criticizing Gov. Haley for being insensitive in not making appointments to minorities in the proportions that you felt appropriate. I would have thought that you, as I, would have wanted her to choose the best available for the job regardless of the category into which they fell. Whether she did or not, only time will tell.
The Kershaw County Ministers Association is proud to sponsor the annual community Lenten services each year. This has been a tradition of long standing.
As a concerned citizen of Kershaw County who wants and expects strong law enforcement, I am extremely disappointed in Kershaw County Councilman Sammie Tucker's actions toward our newly elected Sheriff Jim Matthews. Not only has Councilman Tucker voted against everything our new Sheriff has requested, he has recently taken his animosity towards Sheriff Matthews to a new level by blaming him and the Kershaw County Sheriff's Office as the culprit behind the necessity for the countywide pay scale. If I recall correctly, Sheriff Matthews instituted his own pay scale prior to the development of the pay scale now ...
I would like to commend Kershaw County Councilmen Jimmy Jones and Bobby Gary for opening up the idea of reviewing the public comment period of County Council meetings. This "public" period, I think we can all agree, is not open enough. At present, citizens can only make a statement and there is no interaction between Council and the public. The tenants of our Constitutional Republic are violated when government attempts to eliminate dialogue and open debate. Instead, government is intended to be questioned with public debate in open forums. Public discourse is critical to Representative government and to holding politicians ...
As a taxpaying citizen I am upset with the standards the city of Camden accepts. The new concrete work at the corner of Greene and Broad is so sad. The catch basin on the southwest corner is above grade and does not catch one drop of runoff. Yesterday we had a heavy downpour in the afternoon, and not a drop was going in the drain. All the water went downhill towards town.
Enough is enough. How much more can we take from this city council? They all need to go. We need to find a common-sense way to keep our rates at a reasonable rate. People in the city of Camden have paid the price too long.
I have just returned from the downtown post office. I spent all of three minutes going from the Tickle Hill and Black River roads intersection to Fair Street downtown. The next 15 minutes were spent from Rutledge Street to the post office parking lot. This was at 2:30 p.m. on Thursday afternoon. The point of this letter is not to complain about the time spent, but if I were a downtown merchant as I was until 2008, I would never want Broad Street changed to a two-lane street. The backed-up traffic will be horrible, and unless you meet ...
The debate over school vouchers; public vs. private sectors nothing new
Recently the Camden/Lugoff areas suffered greatly with the loss of an irreplaceable human being, Leonard Allen Proctor. After a long time serving the God he loved so well, Mr. Proctor joined the saints in glory. Mr. Proctor and I were members of New Life Christian Outreach Church in Lugoff, whose pastor is Rev. Richard Cameron. Mr. Proctor served as the building committee chairman. He was a former member of Bethel Worship Center, where he served as a deacon, Sunday school teacher, and building committee chairman.
Hooray for the animals and workers at the Walter M. Crowe Animal Shelter. Thank you, Ms. Thiel, Sharon and Meredith and other sponsors of the shelter, for providing such a generous gift. Now that a concrete facility is a fact, I see a real path to making this a dream come true for our furry friends.
I am writing this letter about the concerns of the Walter M. Crowe Animal Shelter. Our animal shelter has its pros and cons. The benefits of an animal shelter is it provides protection for those individuals that cannot afford the proper care for their animal. Think about it: what would our city look like if we did not have an animal shelter? There would be dogs and cats running around freely. Every day I ride down Hwy. 1, I see a helpless dog on the side of the rode with its ribs sticking out from lack of nutrients.
Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on immigrants and being an American in 1907:
I want to voice my support for Jeffrey Graham in his pursuit of a seat upon Camden City Council. I think Jeffrey is a unique candidate with a perspective we need. He is a family man with young children, and because of this I think he can represent the needs of many other young families in the Camden area. While all of the current council members have important and impressive qualities, the direct representation of our younger generations is imperative, and with Walter Long leaving, we do not have such a voice on the council if not for Jeffrey Graham.
I am supporting David Reuwer for probate judge in the coming election. In any election, voters must ask a couple of things: does the candidate know what he or she is doing, and does the candidate possess the proper attitude to best serve the people of Kershaw County. Well, Mr. Reuwer is a practicing lawyer and Elgin municipal judge experienced in probate matters including the new, revised probate code. Mr. Reuwer is a hardworking man dedicated to the protection, conservation, and celebration of the historical legacy of Kershaw County. He has a strong need to help others; it seems to ...
I see signs appearing throughout the county imploring you to "Vote Yes Twice" regarding the school referenda. If you favor tearing down perfectly good schools and Camden High's football stadium, construction new ones to replace them, to the tune of $130 million plus interest; and if you want to pay higher taxes on everything you buy, then by all means vote yes.

great post about infertility...
got this from a friend this morning....
got this from a friend this morning....
(7) Comments
perfectly said.
She captures some of the most heartbreaking and frustrating feelings of this seemingly endless journey.
Thanks for sharing...
Wow, I love that article. Thanks for sharing.
I have heard "Maybe this isn't God's plan for you" several times lately. This is my favorite comeback so far- Are YOU God?! DO you know what his plan for me is?! Perhaps this IS his plan for me because he knows that I am strong enough to handle it and the struggle will make me an even better mother than I would have been before.
It amazes me how insensitive people can be.
I love this article Jackie... thank you for sharing!! There are so many levels of this issue, but everyone who is ever told they are infertile or have a medical condition that causes infertility hears the same things. I was LIVID a few weeks ago when someone made a comment about people with infertility to stop worrying about it and just let it happen. I felt like reaching through my screen and bitch-slapping that woman into next week... Just because you ended up with kids unplanned doesn't mean the rest of the world will too. Sorry to put a negative spin on this post, I'm still irked about it now, so you know how much that must have gotten under my skin... back to the good stuff. I love how she compared it to saying those things to people with Cancer, it's so true! Because no woman dealing with these issues has any control over it, and it is so frustrating to be given all kinds of unsolicited advice from people who have never dealt with the same things. Hugs and baby dust to all of you, and thank you ladies for your kindness, understanding, and support through my own journey!! <3
I dont have PCOS but when we lost our baby people said the worst things(two of my bridesmaids who are now pregnant don't even talk to me anymore and another one got upset about a post I made on facebook and decided to text me at 1 am the night we found out our baby stopped growing three weeks ago to bitch me out about it. I havent had much support at all to say the least.
Our journey has just started and the charting and the tests are already overwhelming. Thank you ladies for being supportive.
Great article. It is very exact about every emotion and stuggle we go through while dealing with this. I would love to send a link to everyone I know but think that would be pretty rude. The one thing I have heard lately that gets me the most is my SIL's keep telling me that I can use them as an "oven" since I can't get pregnant. They think that will be the easiest way for us. I know they are just trying to help but really, you don't think I want to experience pregnancy for myself, and its not like I can't carry a child, I just have trouble Oing.......
Thank you ladies for being there for me! I love having a place to go to share all my experiences with people who understand. <3
great article!
Thank you SOOOO much for sharing this article with us! I can completely relate to how this blogger felt when interacting and communicating with family & friends. I've heard all kinds of comments relating to how adoption is NOT the right choice for my husband & I, how "doing it" naturally is the best way to go, how we need to be patient, and so on. It is just ridiculous how some of the people in my life have just overlooked the fact that I lost my first baby and I'm exploring all of my options including IVF & adoption.
With all this being said, this article gave me soooo much hope for the future! And it reassured me of the fact that I'm NOT alone :)

World Cup quiz book sees Hull City author Phil Ascough call up Kevin Kilbane and Niall Quinn
Posted: May 30, 2014|
By Danny Longhorn
A QUIZ book that draws on the World Cup heartache of a former Hull City player is the latest work from a Cottingham-based author.
Never Mind The Penalties – The Ultimate World Cup Quiz Book is the work of Phil Ascough, who has previously released a quiz book on Hull City called Never Mind The Tigers.
After working with former Hull City player Kevin Kilbane, a patron of the Down's Syndrome Association, Mr Ascough is also hoping to raise awareness of the DSActive Down's syndrome football team in the city.
Mr Kilbane played in all four games of the Republic of Ireland's 2002 World Cup and knows the disappointment of getting knocked out.
Related content
Mr Ascough said: "Can England get to the final in Rio? Who knows? But you don't need to be an expert to know that the history of the World Cup is full of shocks and surprises, and maybe England might just get lucky."
Mr Ascough began to think about writing a World Cup quiz book after spotting a dusty old volume from England's World Cup-winning year of 1966 while browsing round the Duveen Gallery in Humber Street, Hull, a year ago.
The book was not for sale but Geoffrey Rhodes, the owner of the gallery, agreed to loan his personal copy of World Cup '66, edited by Hugh McIlvanney, to help him begin his research.
The next step was to find someone to write the foreword, and Mr Ascough came up with an idea after former Ireland international and current Sky Sports pundit Niall Quinn walked into one of his signings at Waterstones.
He said: "Niall was in Hull to work at city's home game against Stoke City. We had a chat, he bought one of my books and he said he would help to put me in touch with Kevin Kilbane. Kevin made more than 100 appearances for Ireland, including all four of their matches at the 2002 World Cup, and he tells of the thrills and ultimate heartache of that tournament.
"He only spent a couple of seasons with City but he became a favourite with fans and has shown himself to be an accomplished broadcaster.
"He didn't hesitate when I asked him to write the foreword, and we came up with the idea of using the book to promote the work of DSActive, the Down's syndrome football team that operates out of the Hull City Tigers Trust."
The book has been published by The History Press.
Mr Kilbane said: "It is a great opportunity to raise the profile of DSActive, which is run by the Down's Syndrome Association and is the only bespoke football and tennis programme for people with Down's syndrome in the UK."
• The book costs £6.99 and is available from Waterstones, Amazon and The History Press.
A few questions for starters
A FEW teaser questions from the Never Mind The Penalties – The Ultimate World Cup Quiz Book.
• Which star of the 1953 FA Cup Final who later played for Hull City scored England's first goal in the World Cup Finals in 1950?
• Which star of the Brazil World Cup teams of 1982 and 1986 spent a month as player-coach of Garforth Town in 2004?
• Which Ghana striker missed the penalty awarded after Luis Suarez punched the ball away from Uruguay's goal line in a 2010 quarter-final?
• Who finished as the top scorer for Bosnia Herzegovina during the qualifying campaign that took them to this year's finals?
• Which pop superstar made a comical hash of a penalty attempt during the opening ceremony of the 1994 World Cup?

Have You Seen Jay-Z's "Online Magazine"
Its essentially a blog dedicated to the hip hop moguls interests. It will provide fans an opportunity to see Jay in another light. He has all ready given 11 number one albums, a NY Times best seller, and the a clothing line, yet he always finds ways to connect with his fans and create more, while avoiding direct tabloid and gossip media exposure. We all know of Sean "Jay-Z" Carter, but I think his blog will give a deeper look into his interests, hobbies, and inspirations.
Don't get it twisted, of course the Jay-Z brand will reap direct benefits from this venture. This is capitalists America, Mr. Carter is able to capitalize by simply being himself and expressing who he is.
If he can make it, I know I can……#matchmyhustle…..#respect

Operation Easter Freedom
My first covert operation has been declassified.
Too long has the dictatorial Easter Bunny maintained his complete monopoly of the chocolate and peanut butter egg sector while maintaining a tyranical reign over the peep population. Well, this year, I am proud to say that I have usurped his fluffy throne and secured this year's Easter basket.
And it was delicious. I can't wait to do it again next year.

Don't Leave Me
"Baaaabe don't leave me," Justin groaned. He blindly reached his arm out and wrapped it around Selena's warm stomach to pull her back into bed.
"Justin!" Selena screeched playfully as she was dragged back into their dark warm cave. They turned to face each other underneath the sheets, unable to face the sunlight just yet. They could just make out the contours of each other's faces that they had grown to know so well in the dim light. "I don't wanna leave either," Selena whispered as he cupped his hand around her face.
"So don't." He leaned forward and closed her protesting mouth with his soft lips. They started to get lost in each other again. He swiftly moved his body on top of hers, pinning her into the mattress.
"Jay," she said out of breath, "I'm gonna be late."
"So what? Are they gonna fire you?" He moved from her lips down to her neck, sucking hard.
"No no no," she muttered pulling his head away from her sensitive skin. "We can't do this now, I seriously have to go." She carefully slipped out from underneath him and felt the cold air hit her exposed skin as she got out from underneath the covers. She immediately wrapped her arms around herself and ran towards her dresser for clothes.
"Just come back to bed, babe. It's nice and warm in here…" Justin said, his voice drifting off. His eyes were closed and he rocked back and forth in the huge, soft bed, absolutely loving the fact that he had the day off.
"Stop teasing me. You know how much I wanna get back in that bed," Selena said as she reached behind her to clip her bra.
"I'm not teasing you," he laughed, heavy with sleep, "I'm just informing you of the temperature of –"
"Shut up!" She snapped.
He stopped rolling around the bed and propped himself up on some pillows to get a good view of her. She was in just her bra and panties, holding up a shirt in each hand, her mouth in a hard line.
"You okay?" He said softly.
"No." She said as she pulled a shirt over her head. When she got her head through and looked back in the mirror, he was behind her. Without a word, she turned towards him and practically fell into his embrace. They stood there for a long time as tears ran down her face and he tried his best to keep himself together. Justin steadily rubbed circles on her back and smoothed her hair as she silently sobbed into the shoulder of his shirt. After some time, she finally calmed down.
He took her head with both of his hands from its spot on his shoulder and guided her to his eyes. "I love you," he said as he wiped the tears from her eyes with both of his thumbs.
"I love you too," she nodded.
"So what's wrong?"
She held his hands on the side of her face and gently put them back at his sides. "I can't take leaving you like this," she said, wiping her face. "All the time."
"Selena," he laughed gently, "I'm seeing you tonight."
"I know! It's just," she walked away from him and started pacing the room, "sure this time we're seeing each other again soon. But what about those three months we were away from each other? What happened to all that lost time? Why can't we make up one of those days today? Why do I have to go to a meeting? Why do you get to stay here? What happens when you go on tour and I don't see you for who knows how long?"
She was running across the room at this point and he caught her around the waist and sat her down on the floor with a thud. "Selena, I'm not going anywhere. We're fine. We have more obstacles than other couples but that doesn't change the fact that I love you so, so, so incredibly much." A hint of a smile appeared on her face. Her eyes had returned to their normal color and her face had become less puffy.
"Don't wear that shirt," he said as he got up and walked towards where they had discarded their clothes the night before. He picked up his striped shirt, the one she had complimented him on last night, and brought it over. "Wear this."
She got up from her place on the floor. "Really?" She said smiling.
"Hands up," he said softly. She complied and he gently pulled the shirt she was wearing over her head and replaced it with his own. "Perfect," he muttered as he rubbed his hands against both of her arms.
She caught a glimpse of the clock behind his head and gasped. "Oh my God! I'm actually late!" She rushed back to the mirror, put on pants, and quickly some make up.
"You look beautiful," he assured her as he watched, slightly amused, as she hurried to put on her mascara. She smiled back at him and rolled her eyes. So he went and opened the door for her. Taking the stance of doorman, he held the doorknob with one hand and put the other arm behind his back, straight posture, and looked as serious as he could without wearing any pants. She threw her bag over he shoulder and realized that the door was already open.
"Why thank you, kind sir," she laughed.
"You're welcome, my lady," he said. "A tip for the kind doorman, miss?"
"Oh how could I forget?" She took his face with her hand and kissed him with all the passion she could in the five seconds that she had. When their lips pulled away from each other, their faces stayed close.
"I love you," she whispered.
"More than anything," he responded.
With that, she rushed out the door. He smiled and stepped out into the hallway to watch her run towards the elevator with her hair blowing behind her and his shirt on her skin.

Good call IMO. Scott has brought nothing recently. Once in a while, He gets a steal then blows the layup
About time. Scott and Craft on the floor at the same time is an offensive liability. And I think Scott provides more of a spark off the bench and changes up pace for us.
I thought this would easily be a blow out before but now seeing Wisconsin struggle too while losing at home by 9 to Northwestern, I think this will be close with a chance of victory.
Hopefully they can be competitive but after Wednesday night I believe we'll see more cold shooting and defensive moments of complete ineptitude.
Big game boys. Gotta get up and find the game you had early in the season.
Read my entire screen name....
Going to be a long day of listening to this game if they commentating is going to point out all of Amir's problems.

Agreed, we're getting good looks as well, with the exception of LSJ's drive, but at least he's trying to play aggressive and attack the basket.

The Bucks are throwing up some really bad shots right now. They seem so desperate to actually make a shot they just throw it up regardless.
I think everyone has unrealistic expectations for Amir. He's been good more than he's been bad this year. He's just never going to be Sully or Oden.
Nice defense Q.
And again Q.
If you're counting, that's:
1. One nice drive for 2pts.
2. One turnover - traveling
3. Bad position on post, foul, give up 2 FTs.
4. 2 defensive breakdowns.
4 bads, 1 good.

McDonald > Amir. No question. Dakich's criticisms of Amir are legitimate, accurate, and it's refreshing to hear them.

I'm not the one that is down voting you but I don't understand why you feel so strongly about this. On the year Amir averages roughly 9 ppg, 7 rbg, and 2 blocks per game in 24 minutes. Trey averages roughly 2 ppg, 2 rbg, and 1 block per game in 12 minutes. Extrapolate trey's numbers over 24 minutes and he's less productive than Amir.
Agreed, he was on his hip, not in front of him. Sure his were moving, but didn't beat him to any spot.

No way in hell he was squared up. BS call
I have been known on occasion to howl at the moon. - Crash Davis
They scouted Craft on that charge. He always drives hard with head down to the rack when the shot is clock running down. That charge was a result of that scouting.
I wonder if Thad ripped them in practice after PSU. You could tell he wasnt happy because he gave their coach a Tom Crean blowby handshake.
It's not Smith's fault. He beat his man. Our players are just standing in the lane, bringing their defenders in and clogging everything.
Read my entire screen name....
I am definitely willing to believe most of these Buckeyes have little idea how to play offense without the ball.
Spinning into traffic is nobody's fault but his own. Whether it should be there or not, he shouldn't drive into it.
Wow. I'm getting pretty frustrated with fouls getting called every time we touch them while they're allowed to make contact with us a their will.
Read my entire screen name....
Serious question...is Trey McDonald our best big now? Why do we have no bigs other than McDonald and Amir?
Can't stand watching basketball. The game is slowly evolving into a free throw contest. That's why teams like Wisky and Iowa are excelling
There were 3 fouls on that possession if we're playing at the other end.
Read my entire screen name....
I agree. Just feel like we're not seeing even contact and whistles. And it's frustrating because we've got guys in foul trouble and they're like 90% from the line.
Read my entire screen name....
That's sad. They haven't made a field goal in 5 minutes, therefore the refs have to start calling sissy fouls so that Wisky can hang in
was that last shot by scott not a 3? why did they change it from 30 to 29?

I hate these new rules for the hand checks and touchy fouls. let the guys play! Teams should not be at the stripe as much as they are. ruins the rhythm of the game
pat cozzens
Look for quick early whistles on Wisky to make it appear as though they are calling this game evenly.
Happy it's close...but we haven't really been a second half team of late.
The most "loud mouth, disrespect" poster on 11W.
Hey, anybody know why they only gave Scott 2 for that 3-pointer at the end of the first half? The official signaled a 3, (this was with about 46 seconds left).
Need to start bodying up better on the boards. Get them to call over the back and the contact.
Read my entire screen name....
I'm listening, undertones and all, and it seems he's calling it fairly. He's calling what I'm seeing. The only real consistent criticism he has is about Amir, and it's been accurate. He's also complimented him on good plays. There is no bias against Ohio State in the announcing of this game though.
Class of 2008
Apparently we didn't scout Hayes very well. He's drawn about 6 fouls and knocked down every shot he's taken.
Another handcheck call. It's been part of the game for years and then they make a rule against it.
Thad is our only hope here. The players can't do it on their own considering the horrible officiating.
It's unbelievable. We were playing better, had more confidence on both ends of the floor and now we are taken out of it and frustrated by terrible officiating.
Hey All! Missed first half. WTF is with McDonald? Do all our big men have hands issues? And whats with the Refs? again?!
Go Bucks!
I will hate Wisconsin regardless because their coach is the biggest douche in all of college basketball and their players are weak, consistently getting away with ridiculous flops, but the refs make me hate them that much more. It's like watching the Utah Jazz at home. The refs consistently give them mind-boggling calls. The fact that the B1G has let it go on long enough that people make comments like "what do you expect, it's in Wisconsin" is an embarrassment to the B1G.
Just like the last 3 years...Craft's strength has NEVER been offense.
Dear Lord do they miss Tank!

What's so frustrating about this team is their ability to get my hopes up by grabbing a second half lead...then pissing it away!

Just want to say, as I'm starting to see "the others" filter in. Thanks to everyone on here for being so GD positive on such a tough and frustrating game. Well done all.

the offense still looks lost but i like the changes Thad has made, a win on the road could give them the push to get over the hump.
The officiating is making the football refs look awesome!
"I can accept failure, but I cannot accept not trying." - W.W. Hayes
I wish everyone would get off Amir's di...back. He's mediocre on offense and defense. He's not the problem.
Not sure I want to get into a FT contest but I think it cud be our best shot to finish this out.
"I'm having a heart attack!"
If Bucks pull this off, should make tourney if they can avoid any more BAD losses...
"I can accept failure, but I cannot accept not trying." - W.W. Hayes
After all my criticisms about Amir...the game is in his hands. Haha. #irony HIT THESE MAN

It's bad when even the ESPN announcers are pointing out the bad foul calls.

I can't believe this...well I guess I can considering we might be the WORST TEAM EVER at making layups/dunks.
"The height of human desire is what wins, whether it's on Normandy Beach or in Ohio Stadium." - Woody Hayes
Amir playing solid D on his own team grrrrrrrrrrrrr
"My idea of a good hit is when the guy wakes up on the sidelines with train whistles blowing in his head." - Jack Tatum
How is that traveling, if you jump for rebound and fall...only traveling if u have possession, with feet on floor and then fall.
Either way, Smith an Williams screwed the pooch on that one...
"I can accept failure, but I cannot accept not trying." - W.W. Hayes
Tried our best to give it away but good win despite it.
If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. ~ Bruce Lee
Wow!!!! Beat wiscky and the refs!! Lets hope it jump starts us! Did not play well and won on the road. There is life, albeit it's on life-support but it is life!
"I'm having a heart attack!"
If this team can win over those officials and in the Kohl Center, you have to like their odds going forward.
Win or lose it was good to see the boys hang in there when everything was going wrong. The team is far from perfect but at least show effort. We saw that today with craft and a few others. It was nice to see.

Peter Chiarelli says Bruins want Dougie Hamilton in NHL, not AHL
|09.18.13 at 4:19 pm ET
The Bruins' defensive picture got a little more interesting this preseason when Zach Trotman and Kevan Miller crashed a competition that was supposed to be between Torey Krug, Dougie Hamilton and Matt Bartkowski for two jobs in the Bruins' lineup. Yet Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli stressed Wednesday that Krug, Bartkowski and Hamilton have the edge in training camp and that he does not plan on sending Hamilton to the AHL.
The Bruins also need a seventh defenseman, so it is likely the B's will keep all three players on the team. In that scenario, it is likely that Krug and Hamilton would be in the lineup, as Krug and not Hamilton is Bartkowski's competition. Because there's an opening for a left shot defenseman and an opening for a right shot defensemen, Krug and Bartkowski are competing for one while Hamilton, Trotman and Miller are competing for the other.
"We're evaluating everybody," Chiarelli said when asked if Trotman's camp has him pushing Hamilton. "I think Miller's been strong, too. Trotman had a real good rookie camp, and I thought he had a good game the other night. He got lost a little bit in the middle of the game, so we're going to continue to evaluate those guys. The other D, too, but Trotman and Miller, for me, have stood out in the newcomer category also.
"As far as those D that played last year for us, no spot is guaranteed, but their body of work is greater than these other two, so I would have them ahead."
Asked whether he would consider having Hamilton start the season in Providence, Chiarelli replied, "My goal is to have him in the NHL."

It's National Voter Registration Day! Time is running thin on registering to vote, in Colorado the deadline is October 9th. Today is the day we make sure everyone is on the path to voting in this year's election. Together, with Patagonia, Vote the Environment, Wilco, and many others, New Belgium is hoping you vote for the world you want to live in.
This is a non-partisan effort to put the environment on the to-do list of American voters. Here is a nice film I lifted from VoteTheEnvironment.org:
The environment is a very important part of our New Belgium story, environmental stewardship has been part of our Core Values and Beliefs since the day we were founded. We want to lovingly care for the planet that sustains us. We try to model joyful environmentalism through our commitment to relationships, continuous improvement, and the camaraderie (and cheer) of beer. So, the Vote the Environment campaign made a lot of sense to us, and we hope it makes a lot of sense to you...
There are lots of people trying to get you to sign up to vote, so make sure you get it done. Head Count is out in this world doing the hard work to get it done too. They're reaching lots of people, and they want to reach you. Want to get the ball rolling on registering to vote? Here's the link: Head Count. Or maybe you want to do some good and volunteer... Here's that link: VOLUNTEER!
And, to be better informed on the environmental records of our politicians the League of Conservation Voters has put together a scorecard for the 112th Congress to help with our forthcoming votes. It's pretty enlightening to see the choices of those we elected. Want to see the environmental scorecard of your Congressional members? Here's the link: League of Conservation Voters.
And then, for those social media buffs out there, remember to hashtag #becauseilove. Example: I vote the environment #becauseilove brewing with great Colorado water! Or: I vote the environment #becauseilove skiing the Never Summers! Here's a link to make it super easy... It's a big ol' Twitter campaign to let the world know that the world is important to us, and we want to vote for people that it's important to as well. This is a big election, and whatever side you're on, it's high time we Vote the Environment!
Yours in voting the environment,

Hey readers! Tonight is arriving very quickly, so Simpsonic and I are going to make this quick (well, not that quick). Originally we were shooting for a 4pm posting, but then we realized that the race ends around then, and we want to include that part, so we called an audible and we're pushing it back a bit. So here we are, and here it is, last night, some Stage 1 coverage, a highlight reel and tons of awesome photos...
Let's start with the video:
And then on to the details (the words and awesome photos)...
It all started last night in Durango, after yesterday's sign off. Simpsonic and I loaded the blog up and headed into town. We arrived to an absolute pre-Pro-Challenge malee' and what do I run into first? The starting chute, all branded up:
That placement is just superb, thank you Pro Challenge.
And then we headed off to the New Belgium party on the roof-top at the Balcony, super fun, super crowded. We were giving away a cruiser bike to kick the week off right, but before we launched into the raffle the city of Durango launched some fireworks into the air. It was quite a spectacle, there were reds and blues and greens and explsions and everything. I would show you a picture, but really, have you ever seen a good fireworks picture? Probably not, and mine were no different, just awful...
After the stunning display wrapped up, we jumped into the raffle. There were two tickets pulled and then we went to a Ro-Sham-bo-show-down! Brad and Mike went head to head in rock-paper-scissors for a best of three... Mike won (no question), here he is just elated:
See the excitement on that guy's face? He's very happy...
We are giving away a few more bikes through the week (like 4 more), so if you're following the race (like curb-side) make sure to attend the New Belgium after-parties (you can Tweet at me for city specific details (@nbbprochallenge))...
After the Balcony we headed over to Lady Falconberg's, a very nice beer bar right in Durango, and that's when things got weird:
After some pig-mural interaction Simpsonic and I called it a night, the big day of Stage 1 was looming and the dorm room beds of Fort Lewis College were calling.
Stage 1!
The early bird gets the worm! We were up and at em' and at the start by 8am. It took us a while to find the tent to pick up our media credentials (that's right, full access) but we found it and headed directly off to the start line. During the call ups George Hincapie was pulled in the first group of 12 riders and got a very rousing round of applause. This is big George's last professional hurrah, retiring after the Pro Challenge, and it was good to see him on the line and pumped:
Oh, and he's parked right next to Tour de France winner and world champion Cadel Evans... Don't those boys look ready for a fight?
With all the riders called up and chomping the announcers called Governor Hickenlooper to the stage to shoot the starting pistol. He looks confident with a gun:
And then boom, they were off. It was 126 miles of racing, and they started hot, fast paced from the git-go. Simpsonic and I jump back into the New Belgium team car and headed to Telluride. We had to take an alternative route from the racers, but luckily there was an alternative route–> up through Ouray, Ridgeway, and then into Telluride, just in time for the finish. The racers covered that ground (126 miles), on bicycles, in 4 hours and 42 minutes. We covered it, in a car, with a lunch stop in just under four. That is faster than 25 mph, for almost 5 hours, those boys were flying...
We got some great shots at the finish, but my favorite was all the photographers lined up for the shot. Here's Simpsonic out in front of the assembling pile...
Believe it or not, that is only 1/4 of the total number of picture-takers that crammed into that tiny little space, pretty astounding. Then we went to the post race beer shenanigans and drank some Shift Beer to celebrate a day well spent, it tasted very good:
Then this stuff happened, and it needs no explanation:
And on that note... We're headed to another Pro Cycling Challenge function... I am tired already, but ready for stage 2. See you tomorrow with more total sports coverage...

Hey friends.
I wanted to take today and mention that we're sponsoring the USA ProCycling Challenge (!), and then explain a few details as to what that means...
Are you ready? Alright, here we go.
The Pro Cycling Challenge is a huge bicycle race ripping the roads of Colorado from August 20th through the 26th. It starts in Durango and seven days (and 600 miles) later everybody shows up in Denver. Some of the world's top racing teams will be fielding riders and it's looking to be the paramount bicycle event in the US (beside the Tour de Fat, of course). There is going to be hundreds of thousands of thirsty fans throughout the week (some say over a million people are going to be lining the roads of Colorado for this second year event!), and New Belgium is going to be there making sure that everyone (of legal drinking age) has an ice cold beer in their hand to aid in hydration and cheering. We will have beer tents at starts towns, finish towns, along the route, everywhere. Again, it is going to be the ultimate Colorado happening (in regards to bicycles and beer and fun and stuff (outside the Tour de Fat, of course)). We are very excited to be a part of the Pro Challenge and we are excited to showcase Colorado, and Colorado beer, on an international stage.
We are doing a lot of beer serving and event shenanigans during the USA Pro (I heard some TDF fun might show up too...), and that is all super awesome, but what I am most excited about is the total sports coverage (to barrow a favorite phrase) that we will be offering to all fans of beer and bicycles. We will be on the ground covering the event: videos, blog posts, dedicated Twitter and Instagram feeds, not to mention charming personalities and rugged good looks. We will be talking about the race, but we're also looking to highlight some beautiful Colorado towns, after-race-type-parties, some of the benefitting non-profits, local personalities, and the beer drinking... It is going to be really fun and I hope you can share it with us.
Here's the sizzle clip:
And here are some very important follow-along-type-details:
See most things NBB and Pro Challenge at the Internet homebase: www.NewBelgium.com/ProChallenge
Follow along on Twitter: @NBBProChallenge
Or, on Instagram: @NBBProChallenge (I would link IG here but it's phone only and I really have nothing to connect from my desktop, sorry...)
And, To plug yourself into the conversation try some of these hash tags at the aforementioned social networking sites: #Prochallenge #NBBProchallenge #USAPRO #BikesAndBeer #EnjoyTheRide
There will also be watch parties all over our distribution areas for folks outside of Colorado to enjoy NBB beers and good ol' fashioned bicycle racing with the Pro Challenge. Keep your eyes on that (above mentioned) website to see the details of these happenings in your neighborhood...
So, on that note, get ready to follow along and have some fun in the high mountains of Colorado!
Huzzah! Bicycle Racing!

Did you know there is an IPA Day? Well there is. And it's all thanks to Ashley Rouston (The Beer Wench) and Ryan Ross (of the San Diego based, heavy hitting, Karl Strauss). These two beer drinkers felt the IPA needed its very own day, so last year they decided to give it one. And I, for one, couldn't be happier. Coming Thursday, the 2nd of August, 2012 is the 2nd annual International IPA Day! There are lots of things happening for this special day, for the most up to the minute details you should follow #IPADay on Twitter.
And, if you want to celebrate this most-wonderful of days with New Belgium there are three glorious ways:
Firstly, come to the brewery! We are going gaga over IPA Day and things are going to get awesome. There are 4.5 IPAs on tap for the day and we want you to sip them all. We got Ranger, Belgo, Matt's Cascadian Dubbel (a dark, hoppy, Belgian yeast-y bit of wonder), The Alpine Beer Co. Collaboration: Super IPA, and we are tapping some Red Hoptober (the .5 of the count, a hoppy seasonal for fall (though, not quite an IPA)). We will have hops spread about the room and when you find a variety that you like (smells nice) we will serve you up the beer that contains the hop of your choosing. Then pair it with chocolate! And then, your first sample pairing is free! The match the hops to the beer game will continue through the day and things should be really fun.
And then we're doing a Beer Stream! A Beer Stream is a live streaming event hosted on our Facebook page where anyone (with a FB account) can come join some easy New Belgium personalities talking about our beers. This will be our 4th (or maybe 5th) stream to date and we have covered everything from Shift to Tart Lychee, and (frankly) it's about time we hit the IPA's. On IPA Day the Beer Stream we will be covering Ranger, Belgo and Super IPA. Those easy personalities I was talking about are myself (the Juicebox) and Matty Smooth. Matty is a brewer/know it all around these parts and he is chocked full of beer making knowledge. So, the important details- click on the Beer Stream link on our Facebook wall on Thursday, August 2nd (IPA Day) at 5:00pm MST...
And then there is a third way to celebrate IPA Day with NBB, and this one is for those folks that can't make it to Fort Collins, nor do they have a Facebook account. The third way is to go out and buy an IPA (maybe a Ranger?) and drink it on Thursday in celebration.
Happy IPA Day.
Alright! Break...

Have you ever heard of a Tweet Up? Me neither, that is until my dear friend The Beer Wench asked me to help out with one. Turns out a Tweet Up is when a group of folks get together in the Twitter-o-sphere and use a hash-tag to talk about the same thing. What's that you say? Never heard of a hash-tag? A hash-tag looks like this: #awesomegloves and you can attach that pound sign, followed by some words (in this case: awesome and gloves) to the end of your Twitter updates (henceforth: Tweets) and everyone using Twitter can search #awesomegloves (or whatever hash-tag you like) and see every Tweet using that hash-tag and see what the whole world thinks of their awesome gloves. Using a hash-tag is like a proactive keyword search. Make sense? OK, so back to The Beer Wench, she has teamed up with Whole Foods and they have crafted a series of beer tastings to take place, live, in the Twitter-verse. Head over here for the full and mighty press release. This model is based on the Whole Foods #WFMdish Tweet Up that happens on Thursday nights talking about food and recipes and all the specifics and generalities about those things, crammed into 140 characters. It is fun and anyone can participate (assuming you have a Twitter account (if you don't you can still follow along, but not post your own thoughts on the matter)). In this vein Whole Foods and The Beer Wench have slated #WFMbeer as the relevant hash-tag and put together some American Craft Breweries to start firing away with Tweets and the hope of your participation.
The first in the series of craft beer tastings is scheduled to happen live, one week from today (on 12/20) at 7pm EST (again, using the hash-tag #WFMbeer), and the schedule for the night is as follows:
8pm EST: After party (free for all!!)
As you can see from the schedule we here at NBB HQ are participating and we're bringing Snow Day to the (virtual) table and the other breweries look to be bringing some heat as well. My recommendation is that you head over to your neighborhood bottle shop, procure these beers, get your Tweet-Deck running and get in on the fun. This Tweet Up is a really good way to hear about new beers, try new beers, hear other people's opinions about said beers and also give your opinion (and I value that). In other words, (capitol F) Fun...
I'll see you in the Twitter-scape,

No, this is a serious query.I'll be in the UK probably on the tenth anniversary of 9/11 and I would like to bring a US flag with me for use at the house in Shropshire on that day.So, not wishing to offend anyone, what's the etiquette or protocol that I should observe? Do I need to fly the UK flag at the same time? Should it be flown higher than the US flag? (Well, that will set off the American patriots. ) If I need to fly both should the UK flag be on a higher pole? (Come to think of it, the US flag would be at half-mast anyway.)This is sort of important to me, since I lost several friends on that day and the portion of the Pentagon destroyed was where I worked for several years.And, given the number of Brits that also died, will there be any UK observances on that day?--Regards, Joseph V. Morris
Ah well now that's a good one. I would encourage you (not that I think it will be a problem) to contact your local council with the request. Some local authorities have rules about flying flags and it would be advisable to cover yourself - just to be on the safe side. There is probably a form you need to fill in but minimise the H&S aspects by keeping the entire thing within your boundary's (should it fall into the Highway or injure a passer by) Usually, a letter will suffice for this sort of thing.On 'event days' Royal weddings, football torunments etc, blind eys are normally turned in that 'everyone' is doing it. However, you may be a little issolated here - hence the suggestion. Personally, I cannot see anyone objecting and more shame on them if they do!My own suggestion, otherwise, would be to fly whatever flags you choose, preferably on separate poles, dipping whichever you feel appropriate to reflect the events in question. There is no hierarchy, of heights that I am aware of. I should also like to think that we, in the UK, would also empathise on the day and also fly our flags at half mast too.
Fly the flag; I honestly can't believe anyone would complain especially considering the date.IMO both the Union Flag and US flag ought to be flown at half mast so the etiquette of which ought to be flown higher is immaterial.AFAIK there isn't anything to mark the ten years but I may well be wrong.
Thanks for the responses, guys.I will check with the Shropshire Council; must admit I hadn't thought of that.Pjr, as for flying the Union Flag at half-mast, I wasn't quite clear on the protocol for doing that. Here in the US, you'll see them at full and/or half mast on 9/11, I'm sure. But I wasn't clear about the Union Flag in the UK. The wife kindly directed me to »www.flaginstitute.org/index.php?···#index21 before I got my knickers in a twist. As I read that, unless there is a Proclamation, it's sort of up to us regarding the Union Flag and I guess we'll most likely go with the local flow.Of course, out here in the Marches, one is more likely to see English and Welsh flags than the Union Flag anyway. --Regards, Joseph V. Morris
The above cover Royal and National Mourning, but flags may be flown at half-mast on private or non-Government buildings on other relevant occasions. Flags fly at full-mast on Remembrance Sunday.
You can always buy new flags for the Rugby World Cup this year. --Regards, Joseph V. Morris
There is an American who lives at Longnor (just outside Dorrington) who often flies the Stars and Stripes. I would just do it.--Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.
Thanks, John.Hmm, looks too flat. --Regards, Joseph V. Morris
Technically, what you wish to do is illegal without planning permission, only UK and EU flags are exempt. That said no one would mind and you will not cause offense so please do it. If you fly both flags then the Union Jack must either be higher or on its left to the Stars and Stripes, i.e. the opposite of what would happen in the US. Flying both flags on the same pole is permitted but the Union Jack must be on top and that may lose the effect of the half-staff. Note that the rules for half staffing the Stars and Stripes are different to half masting the Union Jack. Again if you fly both then you may half staff the Stars and Stripes but you may not half mast the Union Jack. My advice would be to fly the Stars and Stripes on its own. If you fly the Union Jack please, oh please, fly it the right way up or you may end up with deserved, adverse comment!
I did put in a query to Shropshire Council and am awaiting a reply.I have to admit that I only recently realized that there was a 'right way up' for the Union Jack. Now, . . . what about the Scottish and English flags? --Regards, Joseph V. Morris
OK clever clogs, if you know the answer to this you may know more than most Brits. How do you fly the Union Jack end on and why is doing so matched by only a very few other nations?
Please don't fly the Union flag the wrong way up! »www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk···ck7.html--los valientes no asesinan. Guillermo Prieto (1818-1897)
Finishing up on this topic, we've heard back from Shropshire Council and no permit is required as long as the flag pole is up for less than ten days. (Please note that this is in Shropshire and we're out in the Shropshire Hills area.) I think the short way of saying this is that no permit is required for a temporary flag pole and a temporary pole is defined as one that's up for ten days or less.That works fine for us as we're on a rental property anyway and it can be so windy where we are that a permanent flag pole (that had prospects of long-term survival) would be fairly expensive anyway. What we are looking at is a multi-section erectible flag pole that slides into a sleeve pounded into the earth. Basically, we'd use it and then dismantle it until the next occasion we wanted it.Next issue is how many different flags we're going to want for Rugby World Cup. --Regards, Joseph V. Morris
All sounds eminently sensible. Otherwise can you imagine the planning applications that would need processing by the respective authorities during Festivals, sports matches, games of Cricket - Oh, we seem to be not too bad at that at the moment.How about the Welsh national flag? That'll be the diagonal red cross then
Don't get me started on planning applications and approvals. Although I live in the free-wheeling state of Virginia, I also live in the planned community of Reston which is, if anything, more draconian in its requirements (and less well organized) than any local council in the UK. As for the Welsh flag, we fly the Red Dragon, thank you very much! Now if I could just think of a reason to fly the Cornish standard for the remainder of my ancestors. Hmmm . . . . --Regards, Joseph V. Morris

As we`ve now moved on to cornish pastys I must say the best cornish pasties I`ve ever tasted are in Mexico believe it or not. Cornishmen first introduced the mountain settlement to the iconic snack in 1824, when they relocated there in the hopes of making their fortune from silver mining. It didnt take long for the wives of the Mexican miners to catch on to the benefits of the pasty and start making them for their husbands to take down the mines.Today the Cornish pasty is still very much the food of choice in Real del Monte, with many paste takeaways throughout the town. They have even created their own flavors including sausage and beans, and pineapple and tuna.»www.thecornishpastyman.co.uk/?p=498The Cornish tradition in Mexico stems from miners who left Falmouth in the early 19th century to mine the silver reserves of the Hidalgo region. They settled in the small town of Real Del Monte, bringing heavy engineering equipment, which enabled silver extraction on a large scale.Since then, pastes have become a local delicacy, although they are often filled with more Mexican flavours such as chilli, beans and tingo (shredded chicken), rather than the traditional Cornish filling of minced beef, onions and potatoes. »www.meatinfo.co.uk/news/fullstor···ies.html--los valientes no asesinan.

Well, the 'temporary' flag pole is up (sort of). The question is, just how 'temporary' is it? Today, we're getting some 'light' winds (light for the Shropshire Hills, that is) and I'm checking to see if it's secure.And, for testing purposes, I've put up the English flag in honor of England scraping through today in the Rugby World Cup. Tomorrow promises to be a busy day for the other flags, given the matches scheduled.Off to check tomorrow's weather forecasts. --Regards, Joseph V. Morris
