What a surprise to receive an email from a CCX recipient wanting to hold a gift card drive to help others. This letter will be going out soon to her and 3 of her co-workers' friends and family. The chain reaction of kindness continues to grow.
Feel free to copy and edit this letter to send, email or post via social media.
People are good,
Emily Thomas
I am a breast cancer survivor and I would like to tell you about a nonprofit that helped me during my illness.
The Cancer Card Xchange is a small 501c3 nonprofit in Tennessee that collects gift card donations and sends them to verified cancer patients, simply to brighten their day. Since 2011, CCX has sent over 1,000 people gifts totaling $100,000+ in gift cards. The Cancer Card Xchange depends 100% on donations. Please see their website www.cancercardxchange.org and their Facebook page for more information.
My first meal out after surgery was paid for by a gift card from The Cancer Card Xchange. Had it not been for these gift cards sent to me, my family and I would have had soup and sandwiches. AGAIN!
For me, it wasn't just the free meal with the gift cards that got me out of the house. It was the unexpected kindness and generosity shown by strangers which reminded me that other people cared and understood what I was going through. I was not alone. It lifted my spirits and I decided to get out of my pajamas, eat a real meal and carry on!
Since my diagnoses and treatment, three of my co-workers also have been recipients of gifts from The Cancer Card Xchange. Each one of us was touched by these gifts and felt truly grateful. We'd like to help others get that same feeling and you can help. We are holding a gift card drive for The Cancer Card Xchange.
Please help us brighten the day of others who are facing cancer.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Province orders SaskPower to remove all smart meters
The Saskatchewan Government is pulling the plug on every smart meter installed by SaskPower due to public safety concerns following a series of fires.
In a news conference on Wednesday the Minister responsible for SaskPower, Bill Boyd announced that all 105,000 smart meters will be removed and replaced with the old meters. At least eight smart meters in the province have caught fire.
Smart meter swap out
It seems with more reports coming out about SaskPower smart meters starting on fire, more people are wanting to get rid of the smart meters on their homes.
According to SaskPower, as of the end of Tuesday, 150 people had requested their smart meter be removed. And another 30 people since the middle of July had requested the installation of their smart meter be pushed back; 150 people have made that request since the program began.
Tyler Hopson, media leader with SaskPower, said at this point the number is manageable.
How to stay sun safe in a prairie heat wave
In a prairie heat wave like this one, it's the perfect weather to grab a beach blanket and spend some time in the sun, but the Canadian Cancer Society is also reminding people to take care of their skin.
Brett Estey is a Cancer Control Coordinator with the Canadian Cancer Society Regina branch. He says protecting yourself is not about hiding from the sun completely, it's about being aware of the risks.
Repair backlog cancels two bus routes
I lineup of buses needing repairs forced city transit services to cancel two bus routes on Tuesday.
"We do apologize to our customers it's certainly something we take very seriously and we're taking steps to eliminate this issue," transit manager Bob Howe said, adding the extreme hot temperatures caused overheating in some buses.
Hot days ahead for Saskatoon
Get out your sunscreen, water and hats because it's getting hot in Saskatoon.
Environment Canada forecasts temperatures around 30 degrees from Tuesday until Friday.
For Bus Stop Refreshments owner Laurel Beaumont, the heat is welcomed.
"I love it, it's something that we all wait for and it's a beautiful thing."
Meewasin Valley Authority thanks donors
The Meewasin Valley Authority (MVA) took the opportunity Tuesday to thank four families for chipping in to help extend the pathway system along the South Saskatchewan River.
Altogether, Janet and Art Postle, Jack and Sylvia Vicq, Terri Lemke and doctors Ivan Jen and Suzanne Yip contributed $400,000 to Meewasin's latest fundraising drive.
The MVA has raised just under $7 million of its $8 million goal since October.
The money is going to extend the Meewasin Trail between Wanuskewin Heritage Park in the north and Chief Whitecap Park in the south.
SaskEnergy assuring customers in wake of SaskPower smart meter fires
Many people are voicing concerns about the new smart meters SaskPower has been installing after several reports of fires, and some of those concerns are extending to the new technology SaskEnergy is installing, but SaskEnergy says there's no need to worry.
"SaskEnergy has no concerns with natural gas module technology that's being installed throughout Saskatchewan," said Vanessa Beaupre, supervisor of communications for SaskEnergy.
Food Council looks to fill Saskatoon pantries
A local organization continues to work towards the perfect recipe to bring better food to Saskatoon residents.
The Saskatoon Food Council will host an official launch party on Aug. 15 at Osler School, about 25 minutes north of Saskatoon.
The group, which began to form in early March, wants to encourage collaboration and conversation about making healthy food more accessible in the city.
City boosts budget for sidewalk repairs
A budget boost will hopefully make for some smoother sidewalks in Saskatoon this year.
Pulling from the 4.29 per cent road levy and property tax increase, the City of Saskatoon increased the sidewalk rehabilitation budget to $1.8 million, up from $500,000 in 2013.
The increase means six kilometers of sidewalk should get fixed in 2014, up from last year's 1.7 kilometers.
Saskatoon currently has around 1,900 kilometers of sidewalk, enough to pave the Trans Canada between Saskatoon and Calgary three times.
STC increases bus fares
As of August 1st it's going to cost more to travel around the province with on Saskatchewan Transportation Company buses.
STC fares are increasing 5.5 per cent on average. For a fare like Regina to Saskatoon that increase will mean a ticket goes from $46.35 to $49.00.
Candace Phelps, executive director of strategic planning and communications for STC, said the increase is, in part, due to higher costs.

Stobart Group's Carlisle Airport plans set to be given go-ahead again
Last updated at 14:36, Friday, 15 August 2014
Stobart Group is poised to again get the go-ahead for its £20m Carlisle Airport overhaul – without the pressure of proving it can make commercial flights a success.
Councillors are being recommended to approve the transport giant's proposals for a massive freight distribution centre and a revamped runway at the airfield at a special meeting on Monday.
They are also being advised that a legal agreement obliging Stobart to keep the airport open is not necessary.
That advice comes on the back of new case law, which has emerged since a High Court judge quashed a previous planning permission decision, which means the need to take into account the viability of the airport when considering the distribution centre is no longer relevant.
Stobart Group chief executive Andrew Tinkler, however, insists the firm remains committed keeping the airport open, running passenger flights in tandem with its other operations and that its plans are based on a robust business case to make the airfield a success.
He said: "Nothing has changed for us."
Mr Justice Collins stopped the development in March after Gordon Brown, a farmer who lives opposite the airfield, sought a judicial review. He found a defect in viability forecasts.
When it tabled information for the revived application, Stobart offered a £250,000 subsidy for scheduled flights to London Southend and Dublin through Aer Arran – now Stobart Air, the airline in which Stobart Group has a 45 per cent stake.
But, in a new twist to the long-running saga, success for the scheme may no longer be dependent on whether the Carlisle-founded company can prove the flights will be profitable and keep the airport open.
And a new set of independent consultants commissioned by Carlisle City Council to look at the case afresh believe Stobart's plans for passenger flights could secure the airport's future in the short to medium term.
Opposition, however, remains and viability of these operations is heavily disputed by experts employed by Mr Brown, who has described the weight of evidence for refusing the application as "overwhelming".
A report to councillors states: "Based on the likely estimate of passengers, the council's aviation consultant considers that there is a realistic prospect of developing a public transport/commercial route, with particular regard to Dublin, for both the operators of the airline and the airport in the short-medium term."
On the issue of whether legal conditions should be attached to the future of the airport, if the distribution centre is given the go-ahead, the report adds: "In these circumstances it is not considered reasonable for the council to require the applicant to enter an agreement obliging them to keep the airport open."
Airport Planning and Development, the consultants employed by the council, described projected passenger demand for flights from Carlisle as "realistic"
York Aviation, acting for Mr Brown, however, says Stobart's projections for passenger numbers are out of date and that any subsidy would have to be greater than the 250,000 promised by the firm.
The consultant concluded: "I remain of the view that air services are unlikely to be operated or, if operated at all, not sustained for more than a year or so."
Stobart's first airport scheme was passed by the council in 2008 and the third planning application was approved in February last year.

Copper Mountain Condo Rental Photos and Description
Two Bedroom, Two Bath, Luxury Condo at the Base of Copper Mountain
The best of Copper One Lodge –and the most sought after accommodations in the Center Village at Copper Mountain. Recently remodeled and beautifully decorated, this luxurious retreat offers upscale living that meets every budget. 206 Copper One is a Ski-in/Ski-out condominium that is seconds from the ski slopes and the American Eagle lift and perfectly located in the heart of the Center Village at Copper Mountain.
The perfect ski condo. The balance between charming and comfortable accommodations and the excitement of being 'at the center of it all', allows for wonderful family vacations, while offering quiet retreat.
Moreover we travel frequently and know what's important for a great stay away from home. Beds- the beds in both bedrooms are well made and comfortable, even the inflatable mattress on the pull-out couch is comfortable. Sheets- as we're not in the rental pool we can select high quality, Egyptian cotton sheets. Pillows (the most important item for a good night sleep!)- at the moment there are at least 12 pillows in the condo ranging from big and fluffy to flat and hard to ensure everyone gets a good night sleep.
Other important items not necessarily found in other units include nice towels, a Kuerig coffee maker, nice glasses and high quality cookware to ensure your time spent here is first class.
This condominium features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, living room, dining room, fully updated kitchen, oversize ski gear closet, and two flat screen LCD TV s with high-definition surround sound. Come and share our beautiful getaway for your next family vacation or gathering of friends and you will see why we love our 'other' home more and more every year.
The kitchen has everything you need for a family meal in or a simple snack with its new stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, maple cabinets, and warm colors. The adjoining dining room seats 6. The living room features the luxuries necessary for an alpine vacation including a gas fireplace, a 42 inch flat screen LCD TV, surround sound system, inviting furnishings, and a spacious deck overlooking the Village at Copper Mountain and the ski slopes.
The master bath is graced with marble countertops, two sinks and decorator faucets accenting the warm colors and furnishings in the master bedroom. Stone floors, fresh carpet, modern light fixtures, and rich paint colors.
Sleeping accommodations are: (1) King Bed in master bedroom / (1) Queen Bed in second bedroom / (1) Queen pull-out bed with inflatable pillow top for mattress in living room (Actually pretty comfortable!)
On the same level as the condo is the hot tub, sauna, and exercise/ workout room. The exercise/ workout room is complete with showers and locker room. One floor up you will find the laundry facilities. Also on the same floor as our condo is 'secret' access to Jack's Bar and Grill. This way you can avoid the snow and/or cold while going to the 'Lefty Lucy' show at Jack's Bar, ski rentals, gift shop, and anything else you might need at the Mountain Adventure Center.
The condo is not only exceptional on the inside, but is also a part of the best Lodge in Copper Mountain. And of course, its location couldn't be better. Just head downstairs for any of the following: downhill skiing and snowboarding; technical climbing on the climbing wall; making s'mores over any of the fire pits; ice-skating and/ or paddle boats on the lake; mountain biking; sledding; and so many more fun activities that the Center Village has to offer.
Between the extravagance and comfort of the interior, to the heavenly location, this ski condominium has everything you could ask for and more!

About Kieron McFadyen
We are happy to introduce ourselves as Amber and Kieron McFadyen. We currently live in Denver, Colorado and spend as much time as possible enjoying all that Colorado has to offer.
Kieron McFadyen purchased this condo in 2012
Why Kieron McFadyen chose Copper Mountain
I (Kieron) simply love skiing at Copper Mountain and while we looked at purchasing in Keystone and Breckenridge I simply would have always regretted not getting a place at Copper- the skiing is simply the best in my ever so humble opinion.
After looking at what seemed like every two bedroom unit in Copper Mountain this unit was simply the nicest The previous owners had spent a small fortune upgrading the unit with new everything, it's ski in, ski out, has a view of the mountain and is a bit bigger than most of the other units in Copper One- simply there was nothing not to like.

Speakers Corner
Speakers Corner in Hyde Park in London is an area where open-air public speaking, debate and discussion are allowed. I used to think anyone could stand on a podium and pronounce anything–often strange crazy ideas without fear of prosecution. But it turns out that's not true. Speakers can say anything they like as long as it is lawful, and doesn't cause complaints or is full of profanity. All of those transgressions will bring on the police and arrest.
I wonder where the people at what later got called Pentecost met. Was it outside? In a public square perhaps surrounded by palm trees and fig bushes?
Speakers Corner in Hyde Park is the site of the Tyburn Gallows where public executions used to be held. People no doubt gathered to watch the convicted die–to us not at all a pretty sight and something most of us would not attend. Or would we? Don't we all want to know what is going on when we see an accident? Perhaps, if it were respectable, we'd be curious to watch a criminal for whom we had no love, swinging on the end of a rope, legs kicking, throat gurgling.
What do people who come to church expect?
Wind and fire probably doesn't occur to you.
These are powerful natural forces, especially when not contained.
Fire in a fireplace is pleasant, heats the house, keeps us warm
Fire at a campsite is primitive, primordial
Fire raging through the forest is frightening and deadly.
What about the wind? We have many descriptors for wind: breeze, crosswind, dust devil, easterly, gale, gust, headwind, jet stream, mistral, sea breeze, sandstorm, sirocco, southwester, tailwind, tornado, trade wind, turbulence, twister, typhoon, whirlwind, zephyr… do you even know what a zephyr is, or a mistral? I don't.
Those ancients, those Galileans, who'd knew Jesus when he was alive, they understood the wind to mean the spirit of God.
They were gathered together in Jerusalem–outside–perhaps in a market place. Clearly it was somewhere public. They were not hiding. People gathered to listen. So here they were, these followers of Jesus, coming together for a meeting…perhaps they came every week hoping, waiting, hoping for Jesus's prophecy to come true. He'd said they would be empowered. Perhaps one or two brave ones pronounced their expectation: Christ will come again! But nothing had happened for fifty days.
The Galilean guys and gals who met at the time of Pentecost, probably had hope they could come up with a program to get the word out about Jesus. They were perhaps looking forward to sharing their stories about what Jesus had taught them and showed them, and how their lives had changed and deepened. They were probably expecting and hoping and praying for the fulfillment of the prophecy of Jesus who'd said "Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. 5 For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit…You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Acts 1: 4-10
But it had already been 50 days since Jewish Passover–could they have misheard about the timing of their empowerment? Maybe they'd never gotten together before. Maybe they'd been hiding out, waiting for the furor of the crucifixion and the awe of the sightings of the ghost of Jesus to die down. They probably longed to see Jesus smiling at them again.
Imagine gathering for a professional meeting–perhaps another boring event you have to attend for work, or maybe it's a conference you are going to out of interest and hope that it might develop into something more. Maybe you'll make some new connections with people who can help you get a job or give you good advice. There again it could be a required meeting that is going to be boring.
I attended my share of those boring ones when I was a chemist. One particularly memorable assembly was for a talk about the safe use of gas cylinders–you know those large phallic metal tanks. The ones I used often contained highly flammable gases such as oxygen. It was an important topic–safety, but, yawn, I actually fell asleep. I probably snored and drooled. I didn't hear the program.
Churches ought to invigorate, excite, energize, challenge and grow people.
But here they were–a crowd of followers of Christ hoping, praying, doubting, wondering, hanging out in the morning.
Suddenly there is a roaring sound. What is that? a breeze, crosswind, dust devil, easterly, gale, gust, headwind, jet stream, mistral, sea breeze, sandstorm, sirocco, southwester, tailwind, tornado, trade wind, turbulence, twister, typhoon, whirlwind, zephyr…
There's no time to find out because all at once what look like tongues of fire are resting on the tops of theheads of every one of those gathered followers.
Suddenly they are empowered to speak in other tongues, using languages they did not know…and they aren't speaking gibberish. They are conveyors of truth and life.
What are people to make of such an awesome event today? How would we respond if a rushing wind announced the presence of fiery tongues which caused our ability to communicate to sky-rocket.
Would we rationalize the event? Or would we allow it to empower us in new ways? Perhaps, we'd have no choice if we'd already said yes to Christ, yes to the Spirit of God.
Have you ever tried to learn another language? It is not easy, especially as you get older. And they weren't children. Yet in a way their understanding might have been as innocent as that of a child: Wind, Biblically for them, signified a powerful force: the breath of life (Ezekiel 37: 5-7): remember dem dry bones, dem dry bones?
5 This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life. 6 I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.'"
Their hearts must have been pounding. This was no ordinary storm wind, and it certainly wasn't a gentle breeze. This was the spiritual infilling of God's presence. They knew that. They got it.
Can we ever expect such awesome power again?
When Bob Bradley, pastor who baptized me, retired, at his last gathering with the congregation he'd ministered to for twenty + years in a beautiful sanctuary, as pretty as this one, there was the sound of wind. It was a perfectly clear day. And there was the sound of wind. And rain hailed down onto the roof of the sanctuary for a few moments. We all hushed. What was that? Perhaps, it was the tears of the congregation to be losing their beloved mentor and pastor–who can say?
No fiery tongues appeared above anyone's head. Just as well. We rational intellectual people would either have had heart attacks or we would have fainted.
But those Hebrews, those followers of Christ, did not doubt what happened.
Fire for them meant many things, including God's power. Remember Moses and the Burning Bush: 2 There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up. So he went over and God spoke to him and told him to remove his sandals because he was standing on holy ground. (Exodus 3:2 New International Version (NIV))
When are we standing on Holy Ground?
Jesus, the personification of God, has taught us God is love. Love is God. Clearly the Biblical intent of the wind and fiery tongues is to convey a sense of the awesome power and nature of the experience of God.
Some churches continue to seek those experiences and perhaps they receive them–but spiritual gifts are intended for the good of the whole community, so that would mean not merely an individual, not merely a particular church, not merely a particular denomination. Spiritual gifts are an out-pouring of Christ-presence into the world to bring about the realm of God for all.
Before, though, we can hope to reach out and send out holiness, give life, to others, we must recognize that these Galileans at Pentecost who began to speak in different languages had been empowered by God, and were grounded in their understanding of Christ.
And just what might that mean in our lives?
It means we must continue to grow in understanding which translates into how we live our lives. And how we speak to others. Communication is of extreme importance. Good communication eliminates confusion and speaks truth in ways people can understand.
All people, no matter Gentile, or Jew, Arab or Israeli, Hindu or Chinese, West Virginian or Kentuckian have common soul needs. We all need to be loved and understood.
There was a young couple who'd gotten married, and the girl was pregnant when her husband was called to join the army. He was gone for three years and never got to come home. At last he did come home and his wife met him at the village gate. They cried and hugged and were joyous. For the very first time he met his son who was almost three years old. As was their custom on a joyous occasion, the young lady went to buy fruit and flowers to sacrifice to their ancestors in gratitude and joy. While she was gone the husband tried to get his son to call him Daddy, but the little boy said, "You aren't my daddy. My daddy comes every night and he sits with my mommy and they talk, and she cries and cries, and when she lies down, he lies down. So you are not my daddy."
The husband was enraged. When his wife returned, he would not look at her or speak to her. She did not know what to do and said nothing. But as the days and weeks passed, he became more and more distant, and she became more and more distraught. At last, one day, she went down to the river and drowned herself.
After the funeral, the man and the boy came home. As the man lit the kerosene lamp, the little boy shouted: "Here is my father?" and he pointed to the shadow of his father on the wall. It turned out that the young woman, because she had missed her husband so much, used to talk to her shadow every night.
This a story told by a Buddhist monk, Thich Nhat Hanh. It is apparently well known to Vietnamese people.
What a simple matter it might have been if the husband had asked his wife about this man who came every night? She could so easily have explained.
What a simple matter it would have been if the wife had asked her husband to tell her what had made him so cold and distant?
Thich Nhat Hanh teaches loving speech, giving what he calls the six mantras of good communication.
We can learn from other traditions. Here are the six mantras from Thich Nhat Hanh.
1. I am here for you. To say this and to mean it by being fully present, by listening, by putting aside distractions is to help a person feel loved.
2. I know you are there, and I am very happy. But you must really know they are there and have practiced being "present." Jesus certainly was present to others–he got it, he got them, he gets us.
3. I know you suffer, and that is why I am here for you. We often want to fix things for our loved ones–but to be there for him or her is true love. We ease suffering by being present to someone. Didn't Jesus ease the suffering of many? Can't he still do that through us?
4. I suffer, please help. This is not so easy, because we have to admit we are hurting in some way…Recently, I was upset with Philip about some minor thing. He'd been insensitive and I'd over-reacted. It was hard for me to admit. It took overnight and me pouting for a while before I stopped being foolish, and said in my own way, I suffer, please help.
5. This is a happy moment. Really notice when you are having a happy moment–a connected moment…
6. You are partly right. This acknowledges and respects another person. It opens up communication. It admits I have weaknesses in me too and strengths, and I am trying to hear you, to listen, to understand…I had to admit to Philip he was partly right in his remark…
preceding section adapted from The Art of Communicating by Thich Nhat Hanh
Jesus illustrates mindfulness in many ways. His example teaches us how to communicate–he is respectful of all people, including beggars, sick people, crazy people, children, and repressed women and minorities. He is direct, and teaches that anger must be addressed, not allowed to fester and cause us to become angrier and angrier.
The gift of fire and wind today from the church must empower us to better communicate, to have our minds grounded on what is wise, what gives life to others.
Churches have many community projects, feeding the hungry, providing housing, visiting the sick. They are places steeped in the teachings of Christ, offering opportunities for people to grow spiritually, and belong to a community of faith who are working together to be filled with fire, passion, and wind of the spirit.
What do you love to do that you'd love to share with others? Join a church community. Maybe your passion is the spark of life–what inspires you will give more life to others?
Charge and Blessing (from: http://www.laughingbird.net/ComingWeeks.html)
Go out into the world,
sent as Christ Jesus was sent,
gifted and empowered for the common good.
Dream dreams, pursue visions
and speak of God's goodness
in words people can hear.
And may God give hope to your dreaming;
May Christ Jesus set rivers of life flowing within you,
and may the Holy Spirit unite you as one body and set you ablaze with joy.
We go in peace to love and serve the Lord,
……..In the name of Christ. Amen.

Untitled Monster Poem from 2008"Go to sleep" my mother said.Untitled Monster Poem from 2008 by loveandasandwich
"But I'm afraid of monsters under my bed!"
My mother smiled, tucked me in just so.
"Not all monsters are bad, you know..
Yes, some of them are gruff and mean,
Smelly, scary, fat and unclean,
Lumpy, scrumpy, with teeth so green,
But how many monsters have you seen?"
"A couple, a few.." I cringed and lied.
"NONE! ZERO!" my mother cried!
"There are many good monsters with deeds unseen
Like the golden haired Pook, so clever and keen
Like the long toed Beem made of mango ice cream
The laughing Lungy who glows bright green
and of course the Clib who dines with the queen!
Such lovely things hate what bad monsters do
Frightening children and smelling of poo
So they take all those monsters and guess what they make!
They mash them and bake them into one smelly cake.
They chase monsters down and cover them in sugars
But no one wants cake tasting of armpit and boogers
So the monster cakes sit just

Struggles in Europe send GE stock downBy JONATHAN FAHEY
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS | April 20,2013NEW YORK General Electrics first quarter results were dragged down by deteriorating economic conditions in Europe, highlighting the danger that the regions struggles still pose to the global economy.
GE CEO Jeff Immelt said he expected results in Europe to be bad in the quarter and they were worse. Revenue from the region fell 17 percent compared with last year.
We planned for Europe to be similar to 2012, down again, but it was even weaker than we expected, Immelt said in a call with investors.
While GEs results were roughly what analysts expected and Immelt said the company remained on track to meet its financial goals for the year, his gloomy comments about Europe and the weak performance of the companys core industrial operations sent GE shares tumbling.
GE shares dropped 87 cents, or 3.8 percent, to $21.80 in afternoon trading Friday.
This even though the companys earnings rose in the first quarter, helped by the sale of NBC Universal and increased profit from selling aircraft engines and transportation equipment. GE reported net income of $3.5 billion, or 34 cents per share, on revenue of $35 billion. During last years first quarter, GE earned $3 billion, or 29 cents per share, on $35.2 billion in revenue.
Adjusted to reflect earnings only from continuing operations, GE earned 35 cents per share. That matches what analysts surveyed by FactSet expected. The analysts expected slightly lower revenue of $34.5 billion.
But sales from the companys core industrial equipment and services divisions the divisions GE are counting on to deliver growth fell 6 percent, and profit fell 11 percent.
Immelt said he thought the first half of this year would be difficult, but some customers delayed purchases and revenue came in about $200 million lower than he had hoped. He expects those customers to come back later in the year, and help improve the companys performance.
Thats not what investors wanted to hear. Investors want to see results now, said Christian Mayes, an analyst at Edward Jones. They dont like the whole wait for the second half of the year approach.
Europes struggles hit GEs sales of power generation and water treatment equipment especially hard. Revenue for that division fell 26 percent in the quarter, and profit fell 39 percent.
Profits in the oil and gas segment and GEs tiny energy management division also slipped in the quarter, offsetting profit gains in aviation, health care, transportation and home and business appliances.
Its a big company and it takes a lot to get it firing on all cylinders, Mayes said.
The companys sale of NBC added earnings of 8 cents per share, while profit rose 9 percent at GE Capital, the companys finance arm.
GE is in the midst of shaping itself into a more focused conglomerate that sells and services industrial equipment and appliances. It is shedding divisions such as NBC Universal and shrinking its banking operations. GE sold its 49 percent of NBC Universal to Comcast for $16.7 billion in the first quarter. Earlier this month, GE announced an agreement to buy the oilfield equipment maker Lufkin Industries Inc. for $3.1 billion, as part of a push to grow its oil and gas equipment division.
Orders for oil and gas equipment rose 24 percent in the first quarter. Orders for aviation equipment, powered by a new jet aircraft engine, rose 47 percent.
But GE is not expecting any growth this year from two divisions that make up half the companys revenue power and water and GE Capital. That will make growing the company as a whole difficult.
Immelt said in order to hit the companys profit targets for the year, it will have to aggressively cut costs throughout the year.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 11/8/14
OAKLAND -- Jarrett Jack suffered a point guard's ultimate humiliation Saturday night. Two minutes later, the veteran assured the night would be remembered for something entirely more gratifying, burying a 60-footer to beat the third-quarter horn and propel the Golden State Warriors to a 103-92 victory over the Indiana Pacers at Oracle Arena. "I've been due for one of those," the first-year Warrior said of what he labeled a "shot-put thingie off my shoulder" that followed a backcourt inbounds pass with 1.9 seconds left in the period. "Some guys get discouraged shooting those because it messes with your percentage. I don't worry about it." Jack was a featured spot on a blooper reel after having been pick-pocketed by counterpart D.J. Augustin in the broad daylight of center court, a play the diminutive Indiana point guard culminated with an uncontested layup. The little guy's hoop got Indiana within 73-64 after it had fallen 16 back...

I enjoy listening to great detective mysterie & also great thrillers. I enjoy books also by Vince Flynn, David Baldaci including assasins.
"Awesome! A great listen & follow up from Book 1!"
Oh yes! I do suggest you listen to Book 1 first.
Very much so!
I like the way he does the male voices. Everyone sounds different and great with the foreign accent.
Where every place needs onetime or another.
This was a great listen and Ben Coes is a great author. I look forward to checking out his third book.
Tell us about yourself!
"Much better than Power Down"
Rarely do I give 5 stars but this book was a non stop listening.
Yes, the more I listened, that better it got
Am a de Vries fan now.
"Excellent Story"
Very good. It was not up to Flynn or Thor standards but I enjoyed the story.
When Dewey kills the terrorist on the plane.
Excellent ability to alter his voice for characters.
No. It was good but took some time getting into it.
The time frames for the Coup were unrealistic and could not be carried out in real life.
"Great read"
you have to start with book 1 and read all 3 like i did, so we can pray for a book 4
"Just as good maybe better than first!"
The particular attention to minor details adds to clarify the story and enhance the mental picture
narrator did a good job, but compared to the narrator of the first book who made Dewey sound like a snarling pit bull, which by the way matched his character perfectly, this narrator made Dewey sound like a kid...not quite as menacing as I think the author intended.
"Watch out Mitch Rapp there's a new sheriff in town"
Non-stop action, thrills, and suspense from start to finish. I enjoyed POWER DOWN and recommend it highly, but COUP D'ETAT pushed the thrill level to the nuclear end of the scale as Dewey Andreas races to save us from World War III.
David de Vries' performance is masterful. Sometimes accents and gender inflections can spoil the listening experience. In this case an excellent novel is enhanced by extraordinary narration of a book that would be a test for any narrator. Mr. de Vries passes the test with an A+. I'd like to hear more novels of this genre read by him.
The book and narration are superior entertainment. If you are fan of contemporary politcal action thrillers, and you are on the fence about getting COUP D'ETAT...jump down on the side of Ben Coes. You will not be disappointed.
"Coes is stepping it up to Flynn and Thor level."
Significanlty better naration than the first in the series. I almost didn't give this one a fair shot. Well written and produced. Mr Coes and Mr de Vries kept me in play the entire novel and I'm excited for the next adventure.
This is a great alternate for Flynn and Thor fans.
"One of the best"
I love these books and this one was extra specail. I loved it, ever aspect!
Very exciting and you'll not want to stop listening.
Constant, believable excitment
It was just plain great
I enjoy counter-terrorism, westerns, historical fiction, detective mysteries, and old school comedy like "A Christmas Story".
"Fantastic intrique! Highly recommend!"
A great story. A action packed plot which gives insight into the historic and current clash between the Islamic Pakistan and the Hindu India. Shows how the US and China could get involved in a horrific war if Pakistan were ruled by a extreme radical cleric as its President, with control of nuclear bombs. This story goes beyond most counter-terrorist stories in that this story shows what might happen if the hero is too late to stop the deployment of a tactical nuclear bomb. This is an intelligent as well as super action packed novel narrated by David de Vries, who does a far superior job of narration in this second in the series starring the hero, Dewey Andreas. Helps us understand why Pakistan is not the best friend of America and why we need to view their friendship carefully. Now I understand why President Obama did not trust the Pakistani government when we staged the successful kill of Osama Bin Laden. President Obama has balls.
Baby Boomer in Raleigh NC. Faves include James Lee Burke, CJ Box, Baldacci, Flynn, Child, DeMille, Crais, Connolly, Thor, Coes, L'amour. Average two books/week.
"Move over Mitch & Jack - Here comes Dewey"
Like many, I am a BIG fan of Flynn's Rapp and Child's Reacher. I intend for them the highest respect when I say Dewey belongs on their same Mt Rushmore of outstanding modern day action heroes..... After listening to Power Down I immediately bought/downloaded Coup D'etat but was sure it could not be "as good" as the first. IT IS as good. Ben Coes' two books (a third is not yet on audio) MUST be read in sequence for maximum understanding.
Yes, this gendre has predictable plots and I have read/listened to enough of them to become quite adept at "knowing whats going to happen". That said, Coes manages to get Dewey in some unexpected situations.
I don't dissect my audio books for minute literary flaw, I simply enjoy them. I have enjoyed Ben Coes & Dewey VERY MUCH. MORE PLEASE Mr Coes.

Oh these are wonderful! Tastes like the pierogi's my mom and I make! I did make a slight change: instead of adding chopped onions to the potato mixture, I sauted them in butter, removed them from the pan, cooked the potato cakes in the butter, then topped them with the onions. We enjoyed these as a meal with some roasted asparagus. Thanks for posting this great recipe!person found this review Helpful. You can only vote others' reviews helpful or not helpful...

Oh I love potato pancakes, so this was a winner here. I served this with some smoked sausage and used leftover mashed potatoes from the night before. The potatoes already had sour cream in them, so they were creamy enough. This would be just as great with a side of scrambled eggs for breakfast. I would leave out the brown sugar and caraway seed next time as a personal preference, as I like them more savory. Next time I will chop up some scallions for it too!
