We Do Have a Baby!
August 16, 2010
Myles Grady Robertson was born July 15, 2010 -- 7 pounds 4 ounces. I got thrush in the hospital and am STILL sick and trying to get used to my new sleep schedule. My mother was in town for a week from California and so I have been running around like a crazy person, still sick, schlepping the baby everywhere. So far his blood work is back and he's HIV negative!!!
Parenthood: Expecting the Unexpected
July 13, 2010
People want to know what it's like to be pregnant and have HIV. I really don't know. Not to be a smartass, but I've never had one without the other. I'm not sure if my mood changes, tiredness and nausea are pregnancy related or HIV medication related.
Stronger Than It
June 23, 2010
Most of us made one bad decision and BAM -- we got it. Acceptance is just another step in life for us. I have no idea who I got it from. My husband is negative. My ex-boyfriend before him, who I was with for 3 years, is also negative. I have had it more than 7 years and really don't care who I got it from.
Intro to Me
May 20, 2010
I am a straight woman. I have never tried IV drugs. I've only slept with guys who were my friends, thinking that would save me somehow from the dirty outside world. Apparently I was wrong. It doesn't matter who you sleep with or what they look like. Every time you hook up with someone condom-less, it's like playing Russian roulette.

New Website Under Construction
New! Promotional DVD about AV
Although new changes may happen quickly in the Arab world, causing our new promo to be outdated soon again, we launched our new 7 minutes video on the Arab world and the ministry of Arab Vision. You can watch it here and download it. Please feel free to use it to share our ministry with your friends, family and your church. To cover the cost of the production of this promo, your (small) donation is welcome!
Missiology for Arabs
Arab Vision is the owner of a webzine for missiological thinking in the Arab World, called St Francis Magazine. You may want to go there regularly for the great articles that we publish. This magazine is a project that we share with Interserve.
24/7 Arabic Christian TV on the Web
Over the last few years, the number of Arabs with access to satellite TV has grown immensely, and along with it, the number of Christian TV channels covering the region. Governments and religious groups in the Arab World are aware of this, and there is a good chance that availability of Christian channels through satellite TV will be curbed or placed under censorship. The broadcast charter agreement last year between the Arab League countries may well be the first step towards tightening the control on satellite TV.
So what other option do we have to make our programs accessible
to the millions of viewers in the Arab World? The answer is becoming increasingly obvious: the Internet. The number of people in the Arab World with access to the Internet has grown exponentially the last 5 years. The Gulf region leads in this, but also poorer countries like Egypt have made good progress. Overall, it is estimated that 24 million in the region have access to high speed Internet.
Popular sites, like YouTube, have become direct rivals to satellite and cable television. Internet broadcasts are also ideal to encourage the feedback and participation of the viewers. In fact, many viewers themselves become content providers with their contributions and video clips, taking the follow-up and interactivity with viewers to a whole new level.
There is a great need to create a dedicated website that provides live streaming Arabic Christian TV programs and establishes itself as a news portal for relevant Christian issues in the Middle East and North Africa. Arab Vision has taken on the task of developing and running this Internet 'station'.
We will utilize many of the programs we have already produced (over 1000 hours worth!), but also produce tailor-made programs with specific style and content for the Internet. One of the benefits of this project will be the empowering of young Arab Christians to easily be involved in this Internet-based media opportunity.
The Internet Broadcast project will proceed as follows:
- A 24/7 Christian program website will go online by the end of this year, offering a daily 4-hour block repeated during the 24 hours. Effectively, this means that anywhere in the world, Arabs can watch our programs at any time. The programs will be available as streaming video, and also as video-on-demand. From January 2010, we will also begin integrating newly produced programs into these Internet broadcasts.
- The second stage comes after we have had the Internet station up and running for a year. We will then begin to include live presenters as hosts of the station. This will greatly enhance the quality and attractiveness of the broadcasts.
- Finally, by the summer of 2011, we plan on introducing a news program especially geared for male and female Arab youth (16 to 21 years old). The news programs will feature the latest news from the Arab World, with some extra attention to church news and Christian comments on the news.
Click here to support a full day (24 hours) of this project - it only costs $186. If you have further questions or would like to donate a different amount, please write to us by clicking here.
Please pray for sufficient and timely donations we need to produce a series of evangelistic Christmas programs.
You make the difference!
Your decision makes a difference in the Arab World. Your financial support for our ministry impacts Arab Muslims. How to do this? You can find all necessary information HERE

Lady Vikes move to 2-0 in Conference
Wednesday, 28 September 2011 11:22
It was a successful week on the road for the Ventura volleyball team, as they picked up two wins.
Ventura vs. CCE
The Lady Vikes topped Clay Central-Everly Tuesday night, Sept. 20. Ventura won a close first game, 25-21. They dropped the second game, 25-20, before going on to win the next two games, 25-22 and 25-18.
"We really came together tonight as a team," said Coach Abby Roenfanz. "I am very proud of how well they played and were able to adapt. They kept their heads up even when down and fought for every point."
Lady Vikes top the Raiders in conference showdown
Wednesday, 21 September 2011 12:21
It was a week of ups and downs for the Ventura volleyball team, as they easily handled Ruthven-Ayrshire, but had trouble in a triangular meet against Northwood-Kensett and West Hancock.
Ventura vs. R-A
It was a quick night for the Ventura volleyball team on Tuesday, Sept. 13, when they downed Ruthven-Ayrshire in three games for a conference victory. The scores were consistent at 25-16, 25-16 and 25-15.
"We had some great moments," said Coach Abby Roenfanz. "We are excited about the win, but always strive to be better and improve on our weaknesses as both individual players and a collective team."
Four strong hitters led the team at the net. Morgan Ames was 13/16 with six kills; Shelby Rayhons also had a good night, hitting 14/15 with five kills. Emily Mathews was 10/17 hitting with four aces
Rough week for the Clear Lake volleyball team
Wednesday, 21 September 2011 12:18
It was a rough week for the Clear Lake volleyball team, as North Central Conference foes Humboldt and Hampton-Dumont swept the Lions, then North Iowa teams battled at the Forest City Tournament.
Humboldt 3, CL 0
Humboldt came to town Tuesday, Sept. 13, and swept the Lions, 3-0. The Wildcats posted scores of 25-13, 25-14, 25-19.
"Humboldt came over to Clear Lake with a lot of good athletes and height. They were well coached, too," said Clear Lake Coach Scott Swenson.
Lions tally up 42 points in victory over Algona
Wednesday, 21 September 2011 12:10
Clear Lake's new scoreboard got quite a workout Friday, as the Lions scored six touchdowns in a 42-20 victory over Algona. The win kept the state's longest regular season win streak going at 36 for Clear Lake and propelled the Lions to the number one ranking among Class 3A teams in the Associated Press poll announced Monday. Another District 3 team, Webster City, is currently ranked second.
Friday night the Lions broke open a game tied at 7-7 after the one quarter by scoring three TDs in the second quarter. They added scores in each of the remaining periods. Five different Lions provided the scoring and Matt Bieber had two touchdowns.

PART I Critical Vulnerabilities Part I for this issue has been compiled by Josh Bronson at TippingPoint, a division of HP, as a by-product of that company's continuous effort to ensure that its intrusion prevention products effectively block exploits using known vulnerabilities. TippingPoint's analysis is complemented by input from a council of security managers from twelve large organizations who confidentially share with SANS the specific actions they have taken to protect their systems. A detailed description of the process may be found at http://www.sans.org/newsletters/risk/#process
Description: As part of its Microsoft Patch Tuesday program, Microsoft has released patches for vulnerabilities in multiple products. The vulnerabilities include a problem in the way a Windows component loads DLL files, five memory corruption vulnerabilities in Microsoft Excel, a problem in the way an Office component loads DLL files, and a memory corruption vulnerability in the code Microsoft Office uses to handle Word files. By enticing a target to open a malicious file or load a malicious DLL file, an attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities in order to execute arbitrary code on the target's machine.
Status: vendor confirmed, updates available
Description: Adobe has released patches for multiple security vulnerabilities affecting its Flash Player software. The vulnerabilities include many memory corruption and buffer overflow vulnerabilities. By enticing a target to view a malicious site, an attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities in order to execute arbitrary code on the target's machine.
Status: vendor confirmed, updates available
Description: ScadaTEC SCADAPhone and MobusTagServer are reportedly susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability. A public exploit has been made available for this vulnerability as a Metasploit module, but ScadaTEC has not yet confirmed the existence of the vulnerability. The SCADAPhone software is used in industrial settings to send alarms to operators via phone. ModbusTagServer is an OPC (Open Process Control) server. It is not immediately clear whether these vulnerabilities affect the client or server side of these products. By enticing a target to open a malicious zip file with the vulnerable software, an attacker can exploit this vulnerability in order to execute arbitrary code on the target's machine.
Status: vendor not confirmed, updates not available
Part II -- Comprehensive List of Newly Discovered Vulnerabilities from Qualys (www.qualys.com) This list is compiled by Qualys ( www.qualys.com ) as part of that company's ongoing effort to ensure its vulnerability management web service tests for all known vulnerabilities that can be scanned. As of this week Qualys scans for 12306 unique vulnerabilities. For this special SANS community listing, Qualys also includes vulnerabilities that cannot be scanned remotely. ______________________________________________________________________

During our recent stay at the Hilton Omaha, my husband and I found the location, staff, and overall quality of the room to be more than adequate. Our issue with the Hilton, however, is that the hotel does not provide free WiFi access in the rooms. To use the free WiFi, we had to go to the lobby with our computer or use the computers provided. That may seem like a small issue, but in this technology driven society, I was stunned that I was expected to pay an additional fee for WiFi in my room or pay to join the Hilton Club so that I could enjoy 'free' WiFi. Honestly, even simple motel chains such as Super 8 provides free WiFi in the rooms. Fortunately, we were in Omaha for pleasure. If I had been there on business, I would have been greatly disappointed. And in fact, in travels since then, we have chosen to stay at a competitor because they do offer free WiFi service in the rooms.

Cadillac engines in hot rodding
Everyone on the racing/street performance front in the early '50s recognized the big Cad motors for their potential, yet the price kept these engines out of the hands of tinkerers until enough of the big cars found their way into wrecking yards. When these engines showed up, hot rodders were right there. They were still more expensive than an Olds or Buick and more costly than a Flathead by a big margin, but the Cad motors represented a major power source without requiring much hop-up equipment beyond dual exhausts. The adapter companies jumped right in and the Cads became one of the most swapped brands. The Ford shoeboxes were a very popular receptacle and complete kits for Cad to early '50s Fords were available from Detroit Racing Equipment, who also offered dual-quad manifolds.
Cadillac engines soon found their way into numerous racing boats and more than a few sports car specials. In fact, most of the popular British Allard K-3 roadsters sold without engines and designed for '50s road racing were fitted by their American importers with Cadillac engines.
Wealthy racing enthusiast Briggs Cunningham made two entries at the '50 24 Hours De Le Mans with two cars, a stock '49 Coupe de Ville, and another new Cad stripped to the chassis and drivetrain and fitted with a hand-fabbed sports body. The car was unattractive (the French called it "le monstre"), but the stocker came in 10th and the special right behind it. He later installed 331s in a team of Austin-Healey Silverstone sports cars for next year's race. The practice of stuffing hopped-up Cads in specials went on until after 1955 when the smaller, lighter Chevy small-block V-8s were proving their worth.
The Cad as "sleeper" swap material became something of a cottage industry, with the Fordillac and Studillac being the most well-known. Bill Frick had a speed shop and conversion center in New York, and dropped a 331 into his new '49 Ford for towing his race cars. The response from other racers, rodders, and eventually the general public was so strong he started doing this full time. Partnering with racer Phil Walters (aka Ted Tappet), they built and sold at least 200 of these Fordillac conversions, calling the shop Frick-Tappet Motors. When industrialist Briggs Cunningham bought out the shop and took Walters to build his Cad-powered race cars for LeMans, Frick started again alone and specialized this time in installing Cadillac engines into the Loewy-aero Studebakers, which of course he called Studillacs. The Studebaker V-8s shared some dimensions and design features of the Cads, but were only 289 ci and didn't come close to providing the performance that matched the swoopy hardtop and coupe Studebaker bodies. This was no chainfall-from-an-oak-tree operation; Frick had a list of options you could order with your Fordillac or Studillac such as bigger brakes, 12V electrical upgrade, and Hydra-Matic transmission. Despite the three-day conversion costing $1,000-$1,500, Frick sold several hundred Studillacs before Studebaker improved their engine's performance and there was less customer interest.
Were they sleepers, you bet! All that Cadillac power under the hood of a "common" car, like a Ford or Studebaker made for a perfect medium for shaming stuffy luxury car owners on an on-ramp, even those with Caddy emblems on their hoods. The production swap cars from Frick-Tappet were offered with chrome Fordillac or Studillac emblems for non-street-racing customers who didn't care about who knew what was under their hood.

How to Revive an Aromatic Cedar Closet
Everyone likes the woodsy smell of a new aromatic cedar closet or chest. But the fragrance diminishes once the cedar oils evaporate and dust clogs the wood pores. You can revive much of the aroma by sanding and cleaning the paneling.
1Start by emptying the closet, laying down floor protection and draping the area with plastic sheeting to control the sanding dust.Ad
3Clean the paneling by vacuuming and then wiping it with tack cloths. Avoid using a damp cloth or sponge to remove the cedar dust. Wet-cleaning may raise the wood grain and leave a rough surface and water stains.
4Leave the wood unfinished and fill up the closet again.
We could really use your help!

Me and my nephew 😍
This stuffed cookie recipe is really easy to make — all you need is an extra 5 to 10 minutes so you can stuff a fun-size Milky Way inside cookie dough before baking. We make our own cookie dough, but if you're in a pinch, use a store-bought cookie dough, it will still work. (If you do use store-bought dough, watch the baking time as it may vary from what we share below). Also, feel free to switch out the Milk Way bars for your favorite small or "fun-size" candy bar.
Created By: Joanne and Adam Gallagher
Yield: 12
1 cup (227 grams) butter, softened (2 sticks)
3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated sugar
3/4 cup (161 grams) packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 1/4 cups (315 grams) all-purpose flour (we used Gold Medal Unbleached)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
10 ounces (283 grams) chocolate chips
12 to 14 "fun-size" Milk Way candy bars
Heat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large bowl, beat butter, both sugars and the vanilla extract on medium speed with a hand mixer until creamy, light and fluffy, scraping down the sides as necessary. This should take about 2 minutes. Then, add one egg and beat until combined. Repeat with second egg.
In a medium bowl, use a whisk to combine the flour, baking soda and the salt. Whisk about 10 times to make sure everything is well combined.
Now, add the flour mixture, in thirds, to the butter mixture, beating until incorporated and scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Use the palms of your hands to roll about 12 cookie dough balls, using 2 tablespoons of dough for each. Then, flatten one cookie dough ball, place a Milky Way into the middle. Flatten a second cookie dough ball and cover the Milk Way. Squeeze/crimp together the edges so that the Milky Way is completely covered. Repeat with remaining dough. This should make between 12 and 14 stuffed cookies.
Bake cookies 10 to 15 minutes or until the cookies are light golden brown. (It may be helpful to rotate baking sheets half way through baking). Cool cookies on baking sheet for 10 minutes then move to a cooling rack to cool completely. Or, do what we do and eat the cookie now, while the Milky Way is still molten.

Behind the scenes at Magnum's 25th Birthday campaign photo-shoot. Watch me celebrate their 25th Birthday by creating the White Chocolate inspired look using some of my favourite kit make-up essentials.
To see more images head to this >link<
Enjoy watching me create chocolate inspired looks! Yummy…
When I think back to IMATS London last weekend I am still lost for words and so overwhelmed by all the support from everyone.
I thank each and every one of you that came and visited me on the Temptu stand where I was demonstrating the first look from my new 'Human Emotion' Series. The series will be based on creative looks inspired by different emotions we as people encounter. The look I demonstrated at IMATS is the 'Envy' emotion, which has took many months of planning & preparation and hard work from my amazing team! I can't wait to create the look again for professional images to add to my portfolio.
I also want to thank my followers who came to my presentation on the Sunday. I thought I would never have the chance to appear as a speaker at IMATS, so to be asked this year I felt so honoured. I also overcame my fear of being on stage that day (I was a nervous wreck!). However, after seeing many familiar faces and having such amazing support I soon forgot about the nerves and it was the best feeling in the world having the chance to share my tips, tricks and experiences.
I love make up so much so its such a privilege to be able to work and demonstrate there surrounded by such talent and inspirational people. IMATS 2014 weekend was incredible and I love going as an make-up artist and a fan! My only issue is the weekend goes way too fast, roll on next year! The dream now is to attend all the IMATS around the world!
How was IMATS 2014 for you?
Many thanks to:

Blizzard Disco Make-up Creation Demonstrated at Illamasqua Beak Street Store
After winning the Illamasqua Distinction in Make-up Artistry Awards I was kindly asked by Illamasqua to do a live make-up demonstration in their Beak Street store window Thursday evening using their new 'Envy' Christmas Collection 2013, where my followers and shoppers had the chance to watch me at work using the new products.
After experimenting with their new collection and being inspired by their Blizzard Nail varnish (Full of beautiful subtle sequins) I designed and created this above look, naming it- Blizzard Disco! A twist of Christmas with a hint of glitz and glamour you would see at a Christmas which I brought into the hair, forehead and adding a violet shimmer glitter body paint look to the neck and chest area for that extra shimmering wow factor.
To create the Face make-up look I mainly used the NEW Fatale Eye shadow palette which has four very unique but complimentary shades. They can be worn individually, as well as together on eyes, cheeks and lips. The eye shadows are extremely soft without any fallout so therefore are multi use.Finally to add Sculpt to my models features the NEW Sculpting Powder Duo set was used. It contains neutral matt Heliopolis for razor-sharp definition, and shimmering champagne Lumos to highlight and illuminate.
Products Used:
Illamasqua Skin base
SugarPill Tako Eye shadow
Illamasqua Fatale Eye shadow Palette
Illamasqua Sculpting Powder Duo
Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage Concealer
Kryolan Cine-Wax
Kryolan Spirit Gum
Illamasqua Fatale Eye shadow Palette

Behind The Scenes Creating Glossy 1920s Make-up
Having the chance to work in Lille, France for photographer Luke Woodford's Abandoned Fashion series project once again with an amazing creative team was such a pleasure and ever so inspiring for me. I also love the fact that I had the chance once again to bring along make-up assistants to experience the project too and learn from me and the team involved.
One thing I was asked about this look was 'How do you get glossy Eyes & What products do you use?' Using the MAC Cosmetics gloss creme brillance as clear gloss—on eyelids, placed on top of NYX Cosmetics Jumbo Pencil in shade Bronze.Place it directly in the middle of the lid, and blend it up to the crease, staying away from the corners. Prep the under-eye with Illamasqua Skin Base Lift concealer to keep the gloss from migrating.

My New Make-up & Hair work! Gestural Abstraction (2) Demonstrated at Vanity X, Dublin using Crown-brushes.
I was asked by VanityX to visit their make-up school in Dublin, to give a full make-up demonstration using my Crown-brushes and to let my Irish followers into world of my make-up artistry success story with my full tips in the industry and what products I love to use when creating my make-up looks!
VanityX is one of Irelands TOP Make Up Academy's, that offer courses designed around the make-up industry with on-going student support, and REAL industry experience! The story behind Debbie Mc Quillan who set up the school a few years was so inspiring and I was so delighted and over whelmed to be asked to visit their school and to meet some of my Irish followers. It will be a day I won't forget and hope to return there next year.
Above are the Final edited images of the Gestural Abstraction Make-up look I demonstrated to the VanityX students ( I was lucky to have professional images took of my look on the day) 'Gestural Abstraction' is where I had the chance to show off the process of making art! Gestural Abstraction means you are demonstrating a variety of techniques that include dripping, dabbing, smearing, and even flinging paint on to the surface of the canvas (My Model Lyn) .
To create these techniques it all depends on actions directed by the artist (Using my Duo Fibre Crown-brushes) using a sense of control interacting with chance or random occurrences better known as Action Painting! Within this look it was all down to movement on how I was feeling, so therefore was not a planned look and isn't supposed to look symmetrical or a normal day to day make-up look. This was all down to layering and textures using the natural contours of my models features.
Many thanks to model Lynn Kelly from Assets Models and Lee from Absolute Studios for taking these awesome pictures!

Let's face it: it can be tough to be the kind of gay guy who is attracted more to meatier, hairier men in a world where lean, rippled abs and waxed backs and chests are seen as the physical ideal.
In response, a whole community has built up around these men and those who share their interest: the bear community. And it sometimes must feel like they're living in a completely different place than the rest of the GLBT community — like they're living on a different planet, or at least, well, in a different city.
A new movie, Bear City (out on DVD next month), takes bears and non-bears alike into that city.
And like The Boys in the Band (one of the first movies about openly gay men) and the 1978 French-Italian film La Cage Aux Folles (one of the first popular movies about drag queens), the hopes and dreams of many, many people ride on the shoulders of this small, micro-budgeted film.
In other words, there's a lot to live up to. And because it's the first movie of its kind (that I know of), a lot of people will be drawn to it. And some of those people will inevitably end up disappointed.
The movie lays out its agenda pretty quickly: "Admitting you like bears is like coming out of the closet twice," a character says near the beginning of the film. "It's one thing to admit you like Brad Pitt. But John Goodman is something else entirely."
In ensemble-movie fashion, it then proceeds to set up the various stories of a group of bear-friends. They include:
- A newbie character who's just beginning to explore his interest in bear culture (who also acts as sort of an audience-surrogate for those unfamiliar with bears).
- A sexually adventurous rogue who's not interested in love or settling down.
- A bear couple where one guy is considering weight-reduction surgery, to the annoyance of his partner, who prefers him the way he is.
- Another bear couple who are considering whether to open their monogamous relationship up to outsiders.
The good news? The actors are mostly very likable, and the acting is more than passable, especially by Gerald McCullouch (as the rogue), Joe Conti (as the bear-curious guy), and Alex Di Dio (as an airhead-twink friend). Meanwhile, Brian Keane and The Big Gay Sketch Show's Stephen Guarino provide able comic relief.
Keep your eyes peeled, because the movie also includes brief cameos by famous bears, including Chris
March, Michael Musto, and the cowboy from the 1970s band The Village
Much of the dialogue is clever — well above average for a film like this. "Bears can be just as gossipy and superficial as the circuit queens," one character says. And there are lots of clever expressions that seem to come straight from the community — "stroller meat" to describe hot straight dads, for example.
Mostly, the movie has a heart, made by people with no small degree of talent who clearly feel passionately about their topic.
So what's the bad news?
The stories, none of which are particularly novel, are all pretty slight to begin with, and even then, they sometimes creep along at too slow a pace. Likewise, the timing of the humor usually goes on for a beat or two too long.
It's also worth noting that this is a very low budget movie, so adjust your expectations for the lighting, sound, and music accordingly.
And can I just say? I know this makes me sound like a total prude, but I thought the movie over-did the sex part. It's not that I begrudge them eroticizing body images that are not often presented as "hot." It's just that the in Bear City the bear community sometimes comes across as something of a free-floating bathhouse.
I think this goes back to the fact that this movie is really the "first" of its kind. As such, I think it's trying to do too many things: celebrate, validate, and humanize the bear community itself, introduce newbies to the community, but also try to sexualize alternative body-types (although the movie is a tad hypocritical: the "erotic" sex scenes
mostly involve very conventionally attractive, if hairy men, while the comic sex scenes tend to involve the fat guys).
For bears or people interested in bear culture, this movie is absolutely must-see (although, as I said, some of you will probably end up a little disappointed). Everyone else? Bear City isn't necessarily a place you have to visit.

The Bigger Picture
A CollaborationIn my life, it seems that people come and go like seasons.But I believe that in the end, they've come and gone for reasons…Good or bad I know the waysthat people go through…
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you leave
It's way too early in the morning for my love to fall asleep
So just open your eyes, just open your eyes, please…
Yesterday, you and I walked through the park
like we do every Sunday when we take the car.
We're still young enough to have really…
Read this original poem By Autumn Echo.
When i look at her..
i have to stare.
Because somthing of which
i dont think she's aware.
Her smile, her nose,
her skin and hair
Theres something missing
i cant find it there.
Those lips, those eyes, her whole reflection.
i cannot find an imperfection.
In her favorite dress
or no make up and…
Me and Autumn's first collaborative poem.
This pain, this hurt, this sadness.
this loneliness.
This depression is madness.
This feeling of no hope, makes it hard to cope.
It's all to familiar, this feeling i feel here.
This pain is a stain on my heart and my brain.
I dream of escape but awaken the same.
Hopeless reality drives me insane.
Emotions grow cold, anticipations fold.
losing grip of myself, trying to get a hold.
Sad how dreams of once breaking the mold, are reduced to just trying to escape with your soul.
I think and i think, im temtped to pray.
I've let him down so much i dont know what to say. I could ask for forgivness and say its the last time.
But last time was the last time.
Guilt is clouding my mind.
This cycle of being happy and then being sad.
tosses me unmercifully, driving me mad.
So as you look at me and question why i do what i do.
I feel you should know.
That i do to.
I've got one rhyme for your love,
and another one for your beauty.
Im deep rooted in your life you can bet your life they cannot uproot me!
My life was dark and cold. Depressing, damp, and windy.
But you came into my life… and now the sun shines from within me!
Cuz im basking in your love, and i never wanna leave it.
See this smile on my face? you are the happiness beneath it!
I am so high off the ground, since ive met you i havent landed.
And the only thing that i will not do is take your love for granted.
So put your hand in mine, let your fingers intertwine.
And we'll fight this fight together til the world is yours and mine!
We'll take on all the evil, and we'll lead the deaf and blind.
Cuz you've showed me that theres nothing strong as love that is divine.
A ray of sun on a warm sunny day,
The embrace of The cool ocean spray
A sunset in the middle of june
Romantic light provided by a clear full moon
Man is sinful
Nature is perfect
Earth gives life
You make it worth it
Nature is perfect but i already told you
But thats why only it can help me describe you
Baby i love you
Baby i need you
Ill be there like the ground thats beneath you
Your a breath of fresh air baby i breath you
Your a flower
Your a butterfly
I dont deserve you but i kno theres not another guy
Who can love you
Like i love you
Your my blood my heart cant beat without you
Im not obsessed
Your just impressed
On every one of my brain cells an no less
I will give you my all an baby no less
No drugs cuz you melt away my stress
You have the grace of a gazelle in its prime
And the power of the hunter baby girl thats a lion
You are the roots that give a plant life
An the beatiful flower that see's the light
U gave me hope now i see the light
So baby i make an oath to always treat you right
Oh music how i love you
I see nothing above you
Its crazy how i need you
I wish that i could breath you
You get me thru the rough times
And ur there in the good times
Ur a beautiful melody
U are a witty rhyme
I give you all my time
If u wer a woman i'd make sure ur mine
You match my every mood
I choose you over food
You made me who i am
Yet i make you all the time
You nurish my soul
You lift my spirit
I can even travel time when i hear it
You are my forever
You are my now
You are my sky
You are my ground
Your my sanity
My profanity
I consider you a part of my family
Your the blood that flows thru my veins
Ur my smile ur my stress ur my pain
I wish i could hug u right now
I am a philosopher and u are my tao
In my next life i hope i become you
When I'm scared your the door that i run through.
Its a cold world
You warm me up
Its getting dark now
Ur light shines down
Ur are my circle
I keep u around
Keep my chin up
Frown upside down
Yes I'm head over heals
I am just a car and u are my wheels
Its hard to describe you
There Nothing else like you
But i tell u what i will do
Stay true, blue.

Hickory Mayor Rudy Wright will face Joseph "Jody" Inglefield in the Nov. 5 general election, after voters narrowed a field of six candidates in Tuesday's election.
Wright, who has held the mayor's office for 12 years, received 1,505 votes, and Inglefield won 822 votes to advance, in complete but unofficial returns Tuesday night. Catawba County saw 12.48 percent voter turnout.
Other mayoral candidates included Ernie Masche, with 432 votes; Jeff Brittain, 291 votes; Candice Harold, 226 votes; and Terry Revels, 28 votes.
In the Ward 4 City Council race, Anetia Ramseur Wright, with 331 votes, and Hank L. Guess, with 160 votes, will advance to the November election.
In Ward 5, David P. Zagaroli and Joe Brannock will oppose each other in November. Zagaroli won 567 votes and Brannock won 137 votes in Tuesday's election.
Ward 6 incumbent Jill Johnson Patton ran unopposed.
Wright worked as a CPA for 24 years and has run a family business since 1995.
Inglefield, a physician who specializes in allergy and asthma medicine, campaigned on the need for new blood in city government. He advocated term limits and the need for senior city staff to be more transparent and accountable.

So I just have to say this….
Please don't steal my writing guys..
It's not specifically on Tumblr, but on other websites where I'm seeing my preferences word for word, as in people are just copying and pasting. At least give me credit if you're going to put it on another website? (Yes I do have a Quotev, and I see them..) If you link me or give me credit, okay thats cool. But when I go on and see someone who has taken over 20 of my preferences and claimed them for their own, I just…I don't know guys. It makes me pretty unmotivated knowing that someone is just going to copy and paste them onto their own profile.. I hope I'm not out of line by saying this and that you guys will support me..
If you see anyone doing this, either tell me or just ask them to kindly give me credit? Thanks to the people who've been with me, even when I took breaks. I appreciate you guys so much.

Why are People Nasty?
A life experience made me look at this question differently.
A few years ago I was harboring suspicions that I had unwanted guests. There were some signs that I might have mice in the house. I saw nothing that convinced me that there were mice, but a suspicion never the less.
Then one day I walked into my kitchen and spotted the rear end of a mouse disappearing into the burner of my stove. I couldn't deny it any longer and I had to take action. Following some advice from a specialist, I went and bought some mouse traps. I know I should have worked that out for myself, but I didn't.
I carefully placed several traps baited with peanut butter in the kitchen and waited. Then waited some more. After a few days I was starting to wonder if I had dreamt the sight of the mouse I saw. The next day however, I was able to send out the following announcement to my friends.
Fast on the heels of other great personalities came the announcement of the death of Beauregard the Mouse. He died suddenly early Friday morning while eating some peanut butter. Evidence at the scene indicated that foul play may have played a part in his death. Police have not been notified. Authorities are currently seeking any surviving relatives. Beauregard will be disposed of later today.
I was glad to be rid of the mouse. It hadn't occurred to me that there might be more than one, but I left the traps out anyway, just in case. The next morning I found another mouse in a trap. I decided to call him Eugene, in the hopes that he was Beauregard's gay lover. All the same I got more mouse traps.
Not long after I caught a third mouse. I didn't give this one a name. I reset the traps. I was troubled now, because I didn't know now how many mice I had. I was down in my basement office working on some e-mail when I happened to turn and notice a small mouse sitting in the corner of the room looking at me. I don't know why I hadn't thought of the mice being in the basement before.
I laid more traps in the basement. I ended up catching about 15 mice altogether over the next few weeks. There have been none since, so I think I am free.
Liked it

Assuming the mouse crawling over his/her brother/sister to get at the peanut butter as nasty is really nasty. You may be conditioned into thinking crawling over someone's dead body to get at what you want as nasty, the mouse may not have the same conditioning. May be that is the natural and proper way to do things in the mouse world. Chuang Tze asked "You are not fish. How do you know what they enjoy." And the respond to that is, of course: "You are not me. How do you know that I don't know what fishes enjoy."
The moral of the story is: Speak for yourself.
Come to think of it. Could the first dead mouse sacrificed itself so that his friend/relative/off spring… can get at the food ?
On September 3, 2008 at 1:51 pm
Although in the 20th and 21st centuries we have other people come to cart away the dead body first, history shows humans have the same exterior reactions.
In medievil farm houses in early spring (the time of greatests food shortage)and in concentration camps, I doubt people would let good food go to waste just because it belonged to a dead person.
Probably humans think about the morals and ethics of this more than other animals, but like with animals and antropomorphic projection, any idea we have that other humans actually think and feel is merely projecting our own internal processes onto another being.
Really, like animals, humans are just complex machines driven by experience and instinct.
On January 13, 2009 at 2:41 pm
Interesting and compelling!
On August 30, 2009 at 2:28 am
interesting! the comparison that is, (mice and nasty people) as I has written something because of experiences of my own!
Beware of the rats!
The sight of that rodent in the house
Instant thought is "trap for the mouse"
In a jiffy it is out of sight
Leaves one in fright
Well it is not the size of the rodent
Afraid, it is those deeds of that rodent
Out of sight it hides in a hole
Long term damage being its goal
Lurking in the dark seen by none
One does "smell a rat" when the damage is done
Unseen they operate, to nibble is their trait
Tattered things around, useless is any bait
Remain alert! Look for signs of damage
Take action! So that there can be some salvage
Prevention is always better than cure, a said recommendation
Early active measures will stop crumbling of foundation
Toxins to terminate are hardly of any use
Side-effects affect you, something to muse
That those rodents escape toxin-attack
But you, be aware of the subtle rodent-attack
Insecure they feel therefore do not want to be seen
Nibble is what they do as they are restless from within
Lurking in the dark, hiding in the hole
Remember long term damage is their goal
Be aware of what they can do
Stop the damage or be ready to renew
On September 8, 2009 at 10:07 pm
Interesting metaphor. When you think of mice as part of a family, and allow yourself to empathize with them, your attitude toward them changes.
Moving from mouse empathy to human empathy is a bit of a stretch, but it was food for thought (perhaps peanut butter?)
You need a cat.
On July 18, 2010 at 12:44 pm
I like the metaphor, how you compare people to mice, or mice to people. Maybe its when we don't have what we really need.

With DrupalCon right around the corner my world is barely organized chaos; but now that we're starting to see some of the things we've been assembling come together the excitement is setting in. What can I say, there's nothing better than building awesome stuff--even if I end up working till 2AM for a few weeks. There's so much coming down the pike that I'm not going to talk about it all here (I'm going to wrangle some of my guys into blogging about this stuff as well), even though I'm busting at the seams to spill the beans on some of the cool things.
You've heard all the great things about launching your website in the Cloud -- elastic resources that respond to traffic variability, scalable data storage, reduced human and capital costs and the list goes on. But is it secure? Many today have outstanding questions about data integrity, encryption, user authentication, compliance, and disaster recovery.
We offer many tools and services to help you succeed with Drupal, learn more and get started for free.

The NFL has said they will not tolerate officials cursing at NFL players, and they've dropped the hammer on one referee for doing just that last week. After an extensive investigation the league ruled that umpire Roy Ellison did indeed make profane and derogatory statements toward Washington Redskins offensive lineman Trent Williams on Sunday, and now Ellison will be disciplined.
The league has announced that Ellison is suspended without pay for one game for using inappropriate language toward Williams:
Umpire Roy Ellison won't work a game this week. Can return in Week 13. The NFL expects its officials to avoid personal confrontations
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) November 22, 2013
NFL announced Roy Ellison has been suspended one game, minus pay, for profane and derogatory statement to Trent Williams.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) November 22, 2013
It turned out that former NFL head of officiating Mike Pereira revealed this wasn't the first time Ellison had been accused of profane language towards a player. Pereira said Ellison wasn't disciplined in connection with the first incident because the league had no audio evidence to confirm the claims.

I was surprised today, to find that we are still in the dark ages. As LA and other US states ban the sale of pet shop puppies, Harrods, one of the UK's most well known flag ship stores, still sells puppies in it's pet department.
As we flew into Port-Au-Prince you could see the devastation across the city. I saw the animals living among the people of the city. A dog being carried by a child, piglets rummaging through rubbish, a goat tied to a post and cattle loose in the road.
