Holiday pushes fed market up
Fed cattle trade got started mostly $1 higher last Thursday. Trade occurred at $126-127 dressed in the north and a few live sales at $79, steady with the previous week. Packer demand increased as they upped the harvest level and were looking to procure cattle to fulfill the Memorial Day demand. Packers came out early in the week offering $74-75 live and $124-126 dressed. However, projections for packer margins at a positive $60 per head, combined with good boxed beef trade and lighter fed cattle weights, helped feedlots gain the upper hand last week. Support was added to fed cattle trade by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) which traded mixed last Wednesday, with June closing up seven points at $77.72 and August closing lower at $78.77. Thursday, CME trade in the live cattle pit was higher across the board with a gain of eight points on the June contract, which closed at $77.80, and a gain of 32 points on the August contract, closing at $79.10. Markets have been gaining strength on solid retail demand. Last Wednesday, retail movement of boxed beef was near 700 loads. That movement pushed the Choice cutout value slightly higher to $145.05. Select cutout values were 70 cents lower, at $124.71, at the end of last Wednesday. The Choice/Select spread continues to hover near $20 as a result of limited Choice product availability. Movement of boxed beef weakened slightly on Thursday although volume was still considered good at 548 loads on moderate demand and offerings. Beef trim was sharply lower on moderate demand and very heavy offerings. Last Thursday's Choice value declined 44 cents to $144.61, while Select closed the day down 55 cents, at $124.16. Packers were doing their best last week to take advantage of the good demand and higher cutout values in an effort to move through some of the front-end ready supply of fed cattle. Harvest levels for the week were estimated by USDA at 708,000 head last Thursday. That number is well above the previous week's estimated harvest of 627,000 head and the previous year's harvest of 654,000 head. The higher kill level is good news for cattle feeders who need to work through large numbers of fed cattle in an orderly and rapid fashion to avoid a backlog of slaughter-ready cattle as a result of heavy placements over the past several months. The cattle on feed report due out last Friday was expected to shed light on the state of the industry. Pre-report estimates were for another monthly record number of cattle on feed for May 1. Prior to the release of the USDA report, Andy Gottschalk at HedgersEdge.com estimated the May 1 cattle on feed numbers at 11.512 million head, 8.2 percent ahead of May 1, 2005. If his number is correct, the May 1 number will be 342,000 head above the previous May record set in 2001. Gottschalk estimated placements would be 6.6 percent lower than May 1, 2005 and marketings, with one fewer marketing days than the prior year, would be 1.9 percent below 2005. Last week's higher cash fed trade could be difficult to sustain once the Memorial Day demand is met. According to Mike Roberts, commodity marketing agent at Virginia Tech, most traders expect these markets to top out soon as Memorial Day buying is completed among lower-than- expected exports. Roberts said U.S. cash cattle are expecting pressure for the rest of the year because of plenty of meat supplies in general, with beef carrying a large portion of the increase. Feeder cattle CMA and auction market feeder cattle trade shrugged off reports of continued dry weather, record high temperatures and higher commodity corn prices last week to trade mostly higher across the country. Last Thursday on the CME, feeder cattle traded in a narrowly mixed range. Nearby May and August contracts closed five and two points lower, settling at $103.50 and $106.45 respectively. September gained 25 points to close last Thursday at $106.12. Much of the positive trade was attributed to a lower close for the day's corn market, which slid to close the day at $2.85 a bushel on the December contract. At feeder cattle auctions across the country, cattle prices moved decidedly higher last week. Even in drought stricken Texas, markets gained momentum after some locally heavy rains fell across the southern portion of the state alleviating problems slightly. In Abilene, TX, feeder steers and heifers under 500 lbs. sold $2-3 higher; those over 500 lbs. sold $4-6 higher last week. In Oklahoma City, OK, much of the spring run of feeder cattle has already been marketed, although last week's auction saw good numbers of cattle in good condition. According to market reports, two weeks of good precipitation in the area added optimism and brought buyers back to the market. That optimism helped move prices higher last week. Feeder steers and heifers sold $2-4 higher, while stocker steers and heifers moved $5-10 higher last week. Yearlings and short yearlings coming off of wheat that was rapidly maturing are actually carrying less flesh than the runs that occurred a month ago, according to reports. In Missouri, at Joplin Regional Stockyards, buyers seemed content last week with the current weather pattern, as it was not a major topic of conversation among those on the seats. It was noted, however, that most purchased cattle were loaded on trucks bound for pastures farther north. Feeder steers over 500 lbs. sold steady to $3 higher with those weighing under 500 lbs. selling $3-5 higher. All weights of feeder and stocker heifers traded $2-4. Demand was called good for all classes with competitive bidding on every weight group. West of there, in Dodge City, KS, lightweight steers and heifers from 350-600 lbs. were in short supply and no comparison was available although a higher undertone was reported. Heavyweight steers from 650-1,000 lbs. sold $1-4 higher, with most up $2-3. Heifers from 650-900 lbs. were called firm to $2 higher. In Bassett, NE, 3,000 head of mostly light to moderately fleshed fall calves were met with good demand, although no recent comparable sales allowed for a trend. Market reporters noted very strong demand for 500- 650-lb. cattle in grass ready condition. At Sioux Falls, SD, last week, feeder steers and heifers sold $2-4 higher. Demand was called very good on all classes, with several load lots of high quality steers in the offering. It was noted last week that dry conditions throughout the central and southern Plains were contributing to a sell-off of cows in areas which won't currently support grazing through the summer. This sell-off could slow national herd growth, which will have an impact on both cow slaughter and the cattle cycle as a whole. How significant the impact, and how long it will last, is unknown. However, if drought persists in many areas, buyers are likely to increase the number of cattle headed to northern pastures during the summer.

La Toya writes of brother's death in book
NEW YORK -- La Toya Jackson writes in her new book ''Starting Over'' that the first question that ran through her mind after she learned of her brother's death was, ''Who killed Michael?''
The book is scheduled to go on sale next week, two years after the pop star's death of a sedative overdose. Dr. Conrad Murray has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter, and trial is set for September.
La Toya Jackson says her brother often predicted he would be killed over his estate and music publishing catalog.
She also says she learned a lot about Michael's well-being in the days before his death. His daughter Paris told her that ''Daddy was always cold'' and that ''he would always cry.''
La Toya Jackson writes that she confronted Murray in the hospital shortly after her brother was pronounced dead to find out what happened and that he gave her only ''evasion and excuses.''
NY library buys Leary papers
NEW YORK -- The New York Public Library announced Thursday that it has acquired the papers of LSD guru Timothy Leary, who coined the phrase ''turn on, tune in, drop out.''
The 335 boxes of papers, videotapes, photographs and other Leary artifacts will provide scholars with access to one of the most influential figures of the 20th century, library officials said.
Leary was a Harvard psychology lecturer who became notorious for advocating the therapeutic use of psychedelic drugs including LSD.
Gaga's meat dress going to Hall of Fame
CLEVELAND -- Lady Gaga made history at last year's MTV Video Music Awards when she turned butcher's cuts into high fashion.
On Thursday, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland unveiled the singer's raw-meat dress to the public. The dress -- made of layers of Argentinian beef -- was kept in a meat locker, placed in a vat of chemicals and then dried out by taxidermists in California before being transported to the museum.

Convictions and civility.
I wish I could take credit for what I called the 5 Cs of Engagement with my kids as they grew up. I wanted them to hold firmly to their beliefs (convictions) but do so in such a way that they could communicate effectively and get along well with others (civility).
I picked up the concept – and have probably butchered it to some degree – from Martin Marty's hard-to-find little book, By Way of Response, published in 1981.
In today's political landscape I am reminded that the 5 Cs of Engagement aren't just a lesson to try to impart to my kids, but a reminder of what I need to season my interaction with in a world where many people don't believe the same way I do.
Here's how simple it is. But be warned, putting it into practice is much harder.
Convictions without civility lead to conflict.
Civility without convictions leads to personal compromise.
Convictions and civility lead to communication.
Does that guarantee true dialog, mutual respect and understanding, and a fair hearing for all? Probably not in today's climate of political, cultural, and religious debate where straw men are erected and slain; ad hominem attacks (attacking the person, not debating the idea) are flung capriciously; false dichotomies, half-truths, ad ignorantiam (taking advantage of people's ignorance of a topic), and a host of other logical fallacies are the rule, not the exception. Maybe worse, is the move to preemptively silence opinions and arguments before they are even spoken with a priori claims that the uttering of the thought is illegal or immoral – usually by setting up a false dichotomy or straw man.
But ultimately, we are only responsible for our own conduct in handling debate and disagreement.
In the words of the Apostle Paul: "If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone" (Romans 12:18, NIV).

203 Tasting Notes
Good ol' Adric. The saddest thing about his departure, to me, isn't so much that he was a totally awesome dude, but that he was young enough to have so much potential to have matured into an awesome grown-up and he never got the chance to. That's the tragedy.
I might be a touch biased about Adric because one of my very dearest friends, as a fresh-faced youngster, was the dude who wrote Adric's introductory serial, so I think it's fair to say my soft spot for Adric stems at least in part from the fact that he always makes me think of lovely Andrew, who's been such a supportive presence for me since we met. And what a talented fellow he is, too. Do check out the latest audio drama he's done for Big Finish. It's intense.
But I digress, as this isn't meant to be a review of the amazing friends I'm blessed with knowing (though I could gush for ages because I AM BLESSED WITH SOME OF THE MOST AMAZING FRIENDS) so I suppose I should say something about Adric blend tea and why I love it so.
I've said it before, and I'm sure I'll say it again: Adric is a snotty little brat, but I still kind of love him. You might think the combination of flavours seems a tad off-putting, but in reality, the blend is redolent with fragrant summer fruit, like a bumper crop of peaches and rhubarb ripening in the garden. They're definitely not quite ripe yet, though, as the flavour that hits you immediately on first sip can be best described simply as green. It's not terribly grassy though, or particularly vegetal either; rather, it's reminiscent of that green, slightly dry astringency of a peach that's quite pale and still crunchy. A decided sweetness follows closely, however, and is enhanced by a little sugar. At times, the interplay of flavours seems almost as complex as Fermat's last theorem: it is brisk, tart, fragrant, and thoroughly engaging. This is a tea that definitely seems a bit odd at first, but very quickly grows on you.
Ok, I don't know what it is I did differently this time (I think I might have underleafed slightly?) but this is the best cup of this tea that I've had. It's a lighter tea, as befits a Darjeeling, but there's a distinct raisiny flavour that comes through just before the end, when it goes a little leafy/earthy and it's actually really nice. Bumping the rating accordingly. I'm glad I bought this one. I still don't trust Darjeelings that don't stipulate whether they're first or second flush (it makes such a difference) but I'll happily drink this one in the meantime.
And it ought to give me enough of a boost to push through day two of this wretched headache and finish this painting of the Ninth Doctor!
Flavors: Autumn Leaf Pile, Raisins
My face hurts. I think the day's stress has aggravated my TMJ. At least I don't have to go anywhere or see anyone until Tuesday. Unless I run out of milk and have to dash to the supermarket, which I will. Let's pray that I can get away with wearing a sweatshirt and won't run into anyone I know.
I need resiliency tea. This'll do nicely. It's one of my absolute favourite teas in the entire world ever.
Nyssa is such a wonderful combination of restraint, strength of character, complexity, and sweetness. The leaves' fragrance is unassuming at first, but a little attention reveals layers of earthiness, maltiness, a very very delicate sweetness, a little bit of fresh hay, and just a trace of something nearly reminiscent of fresh dates. A little sugar and milk elevates the caramel flavour, but it is never cloying, and does not overpower. The balance is such that each flavour – the earthy pu erh, the malty assam, the rich, sweet caramel – is allowed to articulate itself in all its dimensions, with quiet strength. I could drink this every day and never tire of it.
I wasn't sure whether to put this note under this tea, or Irish Breakfast, as I was craving something with a bit of caffeine but not full-on, as my head hurts and I'm a bit sad, and also not totally plain, so I split half Sarah Jane and half Irish Breakfast in this cuppa.
And it's good. It's a more gentle spice than Sarah Jane on her own, which suits my mood perfectly, but it's still lovely and cinnamon and ginger and rich and delightful.
Turns out my phone plan ran out of credit last night, and I didn't realize until mid-morning. Which wouldn't be a huge deal except that Gentleman had been texting from the airport before flying from Melbourne to Tokyo, and I missed getting to be with him in the airport (at least via text). I just thought there wasn't free wifi and that's why I hadn't heard from him, and it turns out he'd been texting me all kinds of updates about how much he misses me and just thought I was having a lie-in. I miss him a lot. My heart hurts.
Tea helps. Stupid emotions. I think I aggravated my sinuses with that 15 minutes of sobbing, and now my voice is shot, so so much for recording a few podcasts tonight. Yippee! Bring on the tea!
I cosplayed as Sarah Jane from Planet Of The Spiders last month. It was AWESOME. I was speaking on a panel about classic female companions next to Paul Cornell, so I felt I needed to channel some of that adventurous journalista energy.
Guess what I've been doing today? If you guessed filling out job applications, writing cover letters, and emailing my CV, you'd be correct! Spot-on! Somebody put me out of my misery!
I also registered for next year's Gallifrey One convention in LA. It sold out in just under 2 weeks last year; this time, it sold out in 75 minutes. Glad I decided to put off picking up groceries until after tickets went on sale. What a relief! That was a stressful experience, to say the least.
I'm still holding out hope that one of these years, I'll be invited as a guest. What are the chances you might be invited as a guest if you've already bought a ticket? Maybe I could use the ticket for a plus-one and bring somebody who couldn't get one. Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself because unless you're one of a handful of people who've written for Big Finish, nobody knows me because of Who yet. I intend to correct this.
Oh yeah, and I'm drinking Susan Foreman blend tea.
Susan, like the early seasons of Doctor Who is definitely worth getting to know. Opening the bag, I am met with the light and perfumed sweet-tart fragrance of bergamot and red berries. As befits a green tea, the flavour is delicate and balanced, without a trace of bitterness or astringency. Whereas raspberry black tea tends to have a bit of weight and that tannic undertone, there's none of that here. The hint of vanilla softens the tartness of the raspberry and citrus, and it's all just rather nuanced in a very agreeable way. An understated and very pleasant blend, delightful at any temperature.
Man, I can't believe I'm contemplating (employment permitting) a move down south. I've become really attached to Manchester, and the friends I've made here, and baking cakes for XS Malarkey, but I think I'd like Oxford too. Plus, it's within easier (and cheaper) distance from London, which could be useful.
I just woke up craving Mambo today. I haven't had it in over a month, and man, it just makes me feel good. It's got enough character to keep me interested, but it's really smooth and I'm getting lots of the sort of stone fruit notes and minerals today. Mmmm.
I wish I was as cool as Ace McShane. She gets stuff done. I accidentally took a nap this afternoon when I fell asleep by mistake in the middle of a job application form. Blerg. That would never have happene to Ace McShane. She's fierce.
Aaaaaand, BOOOOOOOOOOOOM! The scent of Ace blend is like an explosive blast of sweet, nutty caramel, with a trace of smoky green lurking in the background, and a surprisingly buttery, lingering finish. It's a bit of a flavour bomb when brewed, too. in spite of this, though, it still never fails to taste like tea, accented by caramel, with rich hazelnut following at the end. I think it's the gunpowder that mainly serves to keep the sweet flavours in the tea from veering into cloying territory and lend a fascinating complexity. Seriously, I'm fascinated by this tea: it's dark and bright, rich and sweet. It's fierce, and absolutely delicious.
I have watched DW forever and I had no idea that Ace's last name was McShane!!! I'm glad that it has an explosive taste. That certainly describes her well! Yeah for nitro9! Fav quotes …It's just… I don't feel properly dressed without a couple of cans of nitro 9… Do you feel like arguing with a can of deodorant that registers nine on the Richter scale?
I forgot I owned this one again.
I'm glad I remembered. There are serious high winds out there, and it's cozy and has that nice leafiness. I'm having one of those days where I'm trying really hard not to nap and I should really be doing art and finishing job applications. Blech.
Oh hey guys, which Doctor Who character should I paint first?
Unless I have missed some of your paintings… how about River Song? or Madame Vastra, Jenny and Strax? It's the first day of Spring and we woke up to snow! I am soooo tired of winter!
Cool! I basically need to paint all of the people from 2005 onwards because my focus has always been Classic (if that's not, like, dead obvious) but MAN does Classic not sell. And I know that as an artist it's probably really gauche for me to think in crass commercial terms, but loads more people care more about new stuff, which I kind of always left to other people, because Classic is kind of proportionally underrepresented. But dammit, a girl's gotta eat, and so long as the working world doesn't love me…
Remember that job I interviewed for last week? Got it! Aww yeahhhhh. Alternate weekends at the IWM, here I come!
(Here's hoping something with an actually sustainable number of hours actually pops up soon though, I can't live on alternate weekends. I'm scarily poor.)
Tea, though. Tea is good. And while I'm not big on most white teas on their own, I do enjoy a good white tea with the right kind of stuff. Yay, white tea and stuff! First of all, they're really not kidding when they say the TARDIS pouch is dimensionally transcendental – there's definitely an extra ounce in there. Well played, Adagio! Secondly, once I'd opened the pouch, the first thing that hit me was a wave of clean and bright peppermint. On closer inspection, I found the fragrance to be underscored by the presence of subtle, soft blueberry. The taste is light and clean: there's a sort of floral delicacy that sits behind the mint, and a quiet blueberry sweetness that follows. Because it's so delicate, this is the kind of blend that even an unstoppable sweet tooth like me can enjoy with or without sugar, though I do find that a little sweetening teases out the blueberry flavour just a little bit more. It's beautiful warm, but also an excellent candidate for drinking on ice. Clean and comforting, and just makes me feel all happy inside, like the familiar hum of the TARDIS console room itself, the hatstand by the door, the incomprehensible collection of buttons and lights and levers, and that bit that goes 'vworp vworp' and moves up and down to tell you you're currently travelling through time and/or space. Tastes like home.
I am a big dork.
Sami you do such a great job describing the tea that I feel as if I am there with you drinking the tea. I did finally get some of the DW teas from the Adagio sale, so I won't harass you anymore about your huge varieties of DW. I haven't tried any of them yet. I'm waiting for the perfect time when I can really sit and enjoy them. I don't want to just throw them in a tumbler and go. :D Oh BTW, congratulations on the job!
I love that the tardis teas have bonus tea!
Also congrats on the job! Fingers crossed that something else turns up, but maybe it'll lead to something steadier?
I made this to go with my early evening meal of strawberries (impulse clearance purchase at Tesco, and they are GORGEOUS) and rhubarb yoghurt (which I overbought because it was on multibuy special and I don't mind at all because it's my favourite, and turns out it's Gentleman's too – good Gosh, we're nauseatingly cute) and it seemed fitting that my tea should be strawberry lemonade with such a meal.
This is also the last of my new Bluebird teas, so it'll be a while before I get to try another Bluebird flavour for the first time.
And I have to say that this is probably my least favourite of the teas I've had from them. That's not to say it isn't good by any means, but just a bit less exciting, I suppose. There's something in the flavour that almost reminds me of tart apples, and the more I think of it in that way and the less I look for full-on fresh strawberry flavour, the more I like it, actually. I'm bumping the rating up a bit before I post this because of that, come to think of it.
It's got a bit of a jammyness and a tart finish that befits a tea with lemonade in the name; indeed, it's tart enough that I feel the need to offset it with a bit of sugar, though that's not unusual for me and my ravenous sweet tooth anyway. There's definitely a presence of hibiscus, which is something I dig. I'm like 2/3 of the way through this cup of tea and I've decided I like it. Yep.
Mmmm strawberries…I had the pleasure of living within walking distance of the strawberry fields the summer I lived outside of Dublin. They are still the best commercially produced strawberries I remember having.. It's neat how teas change as you drink down the cup and cool. Sound like a nice meal.
Oh man. There used to be a pick-your-own strawberry farm between my old house and my grandmother's. I miss that. Beautiful, isn't it? :)

I think we'll be fine.''

Piniella said C Henry Blanco, who is on the disabled list with a herniated disc had a minor setback that will push back his rehab a few days. He was scheduled to begin on Monday. ...

My question to you is this: is it true that your boyfriend or husband takes you for granted and only makes time for you when it suits him? Or is it that it's too easy for you to feel like you are not special? (Click here to get your "Goddess Report")
In other words; are you making up the story that he only fits you in when it's convenient for him, in your head?
Here's why I ask: feminine women seek attention; we thrive on it and we need it to feel feminine (many women will sell their souls for some attention from men) - BUT it's not always beneficial for women to seek it out because it's a dead end trap; most attention is cheap and short-lived. It can come and go as fast as it comes.
So maybe the truth is that YOU have a RULE about how much attention you OUGHT to receive in order to feel loved?
And, that is very dangerous. To you. The more rules you have for how you feel loved, the less love you will find.
How many people are you going to let go of because you are more like a 10 year old girl in a relationship who stomps her feet in fear when a man appears to actually have a life outside of you? (Why can't I be loved for who I am?)
And how long are you going to pretend that you cannot already exist AS love, radiating love and warmth, WHENEVER you choose to, and not have your happiness dependent upon how much attention other people can give you?
Here's the truth: Maybe, you have more spare time than he does. Maybe, you get bored more easily. Maybe he is more active than you are and enjoys always doing things and you're more of a home body.
Here's a fundamental truth about men: they don't have that much attention to give you. And if you want him to give you attention, you need to train him to do that by positively reinforcing him when he does give you attention.
Eg: he FINALLY calls you - what you DON'T do is say: "OMG, FINALLY you call." This is a major downer for him to hear/feel from you.
He doesn't notice the time; he's busy, he's working, he's focused, he's being a man; all those things that actually cause you to be attracted to him. Remind yourself of that.
I'm here to suggest something important to you: that you actually just want a man who is truly PRESENT with you. Who is intensely masculine, who owns himself and gives you deep attention, not cheap attention. But to GET that, guess what? You must be the other half of the equation. This kind of quality presence from a man demands a high quality and highly evolved kind of feminine energy (the type where you choose to exist as love even when you feel UNloved).
Would you agree?
If it really IS true...
There's another side to this problem. Maybe a man really IS only letting you in his life when it suits him. It happens, and it happens a lot, to a lot of women. It's happened in my own life. As I've said before, sometimes, we really are somebody else's back-up option.
But this is usually obvious; because usually what happens is he keeps other women around, talks, calls and texts other women, you guys break up and when those women are off the radar, he asks for you back, and you go back - sometimes because secretly, you don't feel that you have many other options (You DO).
I wanted to ask; do you really believe that he is only making time for you when it suits him?
If you do, and you STILL want to be with him - then it's time to make him feel a sense of loss. This is not selfish, it's something you have to do with everyone in your life. Friends, relatives, co-workers...we are ANIMALS....we are going to take things for granted, not because we are bad people, but because someone up there, or evolution (whatever you believe in), made us that way.
It's our own responsibility to train others to value us. We are not babies, we are responsible adults, aware and conscious of our own relationships and aware of our own ability to SHAPE our relationships and teach others to value us. (Click here to take the quiz on "How High Value High Status am I on Facebook?")
On the odd occasion in life, we might find someone who is evolved enough to not take us for granted, and actually values the idea of not allowing him or herself to take you for granted. These people are rarer than rare. I've only met one; my husband. But my boyfriends before him were not that way.
How do you make a man feel a sense of loss?
You stop being desperate for his attention, and fill up your need for attention elsewhere.
That's the first step.
The next step is to NOT respond when he "comes back" out of convenience. Make him work for what you guys have together.
People WILL come back to you if you are/were High Value enough in the first place. If you added enough value to their lives, they will fight for you. They will feel loss. It's natural and it's human nature.
NOTE: I didn't say" DON'T RESPOND. I also didn't say REJECT HIM. I said: don't respond WHEN he comes back out of convenience. When is he coming back out of convenience? How would you know? You may not know to start off with; but you will learn through life experience and through having the courage to be present with your own thoughts and actually looking at the situation objectively, putting all anger aside.
Look; there's a difference between doing this from a nasty, malicious place. I am well aware that 90% of women who read this dating advice will jump up and down and go 'yay!!" and think this is PAYBACK and ignore that man out of a feeling of payback for the terrible feelings they feel about not being put first.
I don't intend this advice for those women.
I intend it for you.
Do it because you KNOW something about human beings; that we will, from time to time, accidentally take people for granted, we will get self involved, that men might do that to you. and just like the mammals that we are, we need to be pulled in to line by a well-meaning lover, or friend who cares enough to preserve the value of the relationship by not being available when the other person is contacting us out of convenience.
This is what I would want my own friends to do. Indeed, my man does it for me, and I respect that.
The final part of the puzzle is: are you courageous enough to actually train others in what it feels like to lose you?
Because many of us aren't. We fear we don't have other options, if we were to be too unavailable for one particular person. We fear that they would hate us and leave us. Well, sometimes, they're going to hate us. Again, we are animals. We're not logical, ever-so-perfect mammals. Anyone can hate you whenever they want, without notice. Even you hate yourself sometimes, don't you? But you are not dying from it are you?
If you're not, then why not give this a go?
If you want to get a better understanding of how to understand men, click here to check out our Understanding Men Program. Or check out the rest of our programs by clicking this link.
Have you ever done this with a man you were dating? Maybe you've done it to a friend? Have you got any reminders/tips for other women on how to do this with dignity and self respect?

'National Gallery': A look at the London museum
Frederick Wiseman has been pigeonholed as a social activist filmmaker ever since his debut, "Titicut Follies" (1967), revealed enough about the Bridgewater State Hospital for the criminally insane that Massachusetts made it the first film banned in America for reasons other than obscenity. But what Wiseman really does is make movies about institutions, which explains a filmography that includes "High School" (1968), "Welfare" (1975) and "Public Housing" (1997), as well as "La Danse" (about the Paris Opera Ballet, 2009) and "Crazy Horse" (about the legendary erotic dance club, 2011). Now, there's "National Gallery," about the London museum that houses one of the great collections of paintings in the world, a compendium of portraiture from the 13th to 19th centuries and, like all similar artistic institutions worldwide, on an endangered species list.

'Homesman': Familiar role for Tommy Lee Jones
It's probably some kind of sacrilege to say it, but over his long and esteemed career, Tommy Lee Jones has been giving basically the same performance -- the crusty curmudgeon, woefully burdened with inner decency. He's not alone among movie stars in sticking to a script: Plenty of Hollywood icons have found their groove and stuck with it/in it, wandering out only to win Oscars (Humphrey Bogart in "The African Queen"), realize they'd made a terrible mistake (Harrison Ford in "What Lies Beneath") or both (Mary Tyler Moore in "Ordinary People"). More »
'The Theory of Everything': Oscar-worthy acting
Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones play Stephen Hawking and his wife, Jane Wilde, in "The Theory of Everything," and you couldn't hope to spend time with two fresher, more fetching faces. We meet Hawking and Wilde as Cambridge students, flush with youth and promise in the early 1960s. The actors even look rather alike, with toothy smiles and nearly matching hazel eyes, giving us a sense that these two were destined for each other. More »
'Mockingjay' loses track of social insight
It's a disappointing third entry in a series that initially promised us so much. More »
'Beyond the Lights': In 'Bodyguard's' shadow
It would be interesting to watch "Beyond the Lights" with someone like, say, Rihanna. The movie's heroine is Noni, a successful but unhappy R&B starlet known for her sexually provocative videos. As a child, Noni (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) wanted to sing like Nina Simone, but today's fans want fantasies. At a Billboard Music Awards ceremony, Noni obligingly shows up wearing little more than gold chains and a massive choker -- slave-bling, essentially, that symbolically degrades her gender and perhaps her race. More »
'Merry Friggin' Christmas': Loveable Robin Williams
A few minutes into "A Merry Friggin' Christmas," hedge-fund manager Boyd Mitchler (Joel McHale) reunites with his estranged father, Mitch (Robin Williams). It's an occasion for the first of this movie's many uninspired mishaps -- a candle, a pants leg and a fire extinguisher are involved -- but Williams just about saves the scene with two little words.

'Dumb and Dumber To' will please die-hard fans
Jim Carrey, Jeff Daniels and the Farrelly brothers have aged 20 years since "Dumb and Dumber," their 1994 comedy about two dimwits sailing through life on a sea of their own bodily fluids. The good and bad news about their long-awaited reunion, "Dumb and Dumber To," is that maturity hasn't caught up with any of them. More »
'Rosewater': Jon Stewart's earnest directorial debut
Anyone who doesn't know that Jon Stewart directed a movie this year hasn't been watching enough "Daily Show": The political/comedy talk-show host took the summer off to make a film, probably doing more for John Oliver's career as a comedian than for his own as a film director. Still, the results -- "Rosewater," a credible exercise in suspense and righteous indignation -- say a lot for Stewart, mostly as an architect of narrative. More »
'Big Hero 6': Entertaining and kid-approved
A trailer for the animated film "Big Hero 6" features a 14-year-old boy, Hiro, excitedly telling a cop about a sinister figure whose Kabuki mask can control an army of microbots. The cop is one of those droll, seen-it-all types who says things like, "Let me get this straight, kid." The crazier the story, the funnier his straight-faced reaction becomes. More »
'Elsa & Fred': A worthy remake
Watching Shirley MacLaine and Christopher Plummer at work in the late-inning romance "Elsa & Fred," one can't help but get with its message -- that it's never too late to live lustily, throw erotic caution to the wind, do what you love, love whom you want. Directed and rewritten by Michael Radford ("Il Postino," "The Merchant of Venice" with Al Pacino) it's a remake of sorts of the 2005 Argentine crowd-pleaser "Elsa y Fred," but as Americanized by its British filmmaker it's also a showcase for two oldish pros, and a crowd-pleaser with just enough edge to tickle the intellect.

Here's what I have learned so far as a wahp (I'm a dressmaker):
1. line up othercare even if you think you won't need it. You just never know.
2. Set reasonable prices for your experience and talent. Don't sell yourself short simply because you don't have a fancy office/studio. But keep in mind your area's col so you don't price yourself out of business.
3. Set firm hours of operation--both for appointments and for "office" work. This is not only for family and friends but for you. Don't let others take advantage of you "being at home". You're not--you're "at work".
4. Above all--be professional. Both in your person (act and dress professionally) and in your house. If your clients will be coming through your house to get to your place of business, have the house clean and neat. Like it or not, the appearance of your house will reflect on your business in the minds of your clients. Enlist your dh and children for this part.

The thing with working from home is to be realistic and treat it like a job.
You are right, many people want to make money, but they don't want to work. That is why there is such a failure rate. When you are home, there is always something else to do, the kids need you, the house is a mess...
However, it can be done. Many sacrifices need to be made, but it can be very rewarding,

When I was looking for sling patterns online for JOy when Alex was an infant, I emailed some questions to a couble of sling websites that were owned by sahms as cottage industries. I never got any replies. Not my way of doing business. Nor is stating on the website that the owner's kids come ahead of the customers even if it's true. That's not the way to run any business; not if one wants to stay in business and make money.

Why isn't there a treatment or vaccine for Ebola?August 1, 2014 @ 12:13 pm

LONDON (AP) -- In the four decades since the Ebola virus was first identified in Africa, treatment hasn't changed much. There are no licensed drugs or vaccines for the deadly disease.
Some are being developed, but none have been rigorously tested in humans. One experimental treatment, though, was tried this week in an American aid worker sick with Ebola, according to the U.S-based group that she works for in Liberia.
Without a specific treatment, doctors and nurses focus on easing the disease's symptoms -- fever, headache, vomiting and diarrhea -- and on keeping patients hydrated and comfortable.
The outbreak in three West African countries -- Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone -- has sickened more than 1,300 people and more than 700 have died since March.
For one thing, the Ebola virus is hard to work with. The virus doesn't grow well in petri dishes and experiments can only be done in the relatively few labs with the highest

The prom to end all proms went down at the Hilton Lafayette to benefit the Lafayette Education Foundation. More than a dozen prominent community members filled the ballroom for a Fantasy Island-themed bash that included a hefty dose of tropical eats and wares from grass skirts and leis to coconut bras and a clever homage to Gilligan's Island by The IND's Laura Ketteringham (aka Ginger) for the evening. At a dollar a vote, the prom court theme was "vote early and often" — something supporters of Kelsey Corrigan and Gifford Briggs clearly did. The duo was crowed queen and king of ReProm.

NOV 26 Zach Kopplin, who we came to know and love when he was a Louisiana high school student lobbying for the continued inclusion of science stuff in science class, pens this post in The Atlantic about a "textbook" available for social studies instruction in Texas that discusses how Moses contributed to the Constitution. (Oy! Texas rednecks love Jews. Who knew?)
NOV 26 Finally, mad people on the interwebz is a good thing! World wide webby outrage has caused the village of Moreauville to reverse its plan to confiscate pit bulls and Rottweillers and euthanize them simply because of their breed, WAFB reports here. The plan? They're going to enforce the leash law. Well, that would have been a good place to start.
NOV 26 Jim Brown, like many of us Louisiana voters, seems fed up with out of town know-it-alls trying to tell us what to do. Bill Cassidy can't make it through the day without flying someone in to "tell us political retards" how to vote, he says.
NOV 26 Blogger Tom Aswell is writing about the behavior of the two finalists in the 6th Congressional District race: Edwin Edwards and Garret Graves. Edwards has come out swinging, but Graves' campaign seems bent on snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, Tom says.
NOV 26 Blogger CB Forgotston is confused, he says, because Governor Bobby Jindal said higher education wouldn't get cut, but it looks like it is being cut. CB's asking: When is a cut not a cut?
NOV 26 Unless you're in Virigina, you shouldn't count on seeing our Governor on Election Day. Mark Ballard writes in the Advocate's political blog that Bobby will be appearing at a GOP love fest of some kind there, instead of spending the day here.
NOV 26 This post on The Lens takes a look at the ongoing dispute in New Orleans over the banners about the upcoming tax election for the school system. The banners are hanging on schools, and some feel they are promotional, which is not allowed, instead of educational - which is allowed.
NOV 26 Not all college students are focused on football games and parties at this time of year. This post on DIG Baton Rouge recounts an LSU student group that tries to make sure that those who are hungry and homeless are not forgotten by those of us who aren't.
NOV 25 Edwin Edwards took off the gloves on Monday, this post on WAFB tells us. At a Press Club appearance, he wondered how his 6th Congressional District opponent, Garret Graves, could be an expert in all the areas in which he claims to be - when he has no college degree in anything. (Five years - FIVE YEARS - in college, but no degree. Huh?)
NOV 25 Blogger Mike Deshotels offers this primer on predatory charter schools and how they operate, specifically in Louisiana. They're not just profiting from our tax dollars, they're using children and shortchanging them to do so, Deshotels says.
NOV 25 Here's a link to the petition that has been created to save Zeus, a family dog who is targeted for death by the learned fathers of the Avoyelles Parish village of Moreauville. They passed an ordinance based on nothing that outlaws pit bulls and Rotweillers. As of Tuesday morning, the petition had more than 230,000 signatures - a number that's a wee bit higher than the village population of 929.

I am looking for exemplars (design examples) showing the use of objects (especially abstract base classes and/or interfaces, aka 'protocols' for you smalltalkers) to design a document management architecture in a large Word Processor, Spreadsheet, vector graphic or publishing package, or office-productivity (non-database) application with support for as many of the following as possible:
any open source project, will be ideal, and language of implementation is unimportant since I am looking for design examples, however an object oriented language with support for "interfaces" is a must. I know at least a dozen languages, and I'm willing to study any application's source.
use of "interface" could loosely be applied to either XPCOM or COM interfaces, or .NET interfaces, or even the use of pure-virtual (virtual+abstract) base-classes for OOP languages that lack the ability to declare an interface distinct from a class.
I am mostly looking for a robust, thorough and flexible implementation for a document, IDocument, various document views (IDocumentView), and whatever operations make sense in that case.
I am particular interested in cases where the product in question is a real-world product. For example, if anybody familiar with OpenOffice can tell me if the code contains a good sample design.
I am looking for design documentation that outlines the design of the interfaces for such an application. So for example, if the openoffice spreadsheet has such an interface design, then that might be the best case, because it is a widely used real-world design, with millions of users, rather than a textbook example, which is minimal, and contrived.
I know that the Mozilla platform uses XPCOM, and its design is heavily "interface" oriented, but I am looking more for a "word processor" or "spreadsheet" type of document design, rather than a web-browser.
I am particularly interested in the interfaces used to access to data and meta-data such as markup (attributes like bold, and italics, and font size), and the ability to search and look up named entities within a document.

Klitschko retains WBC heavyweight title
Submitted by Keval Sharma on Sun, 10/17/2010 - 07:15
Hamburg, Oct 17 - Ukrainian WBC champion of the world Vitali Klitschko has retained his heavyweight title with an unanimous points victory over challenger Shannon Briggs.
Although the American had said before the fight Saturday that he would knock out the champion, who boxes out of Germany, the 38-year-old was never in it and probably lost all 12 rounds.
A capacity 14,500 crowd in the Hamburg 02-Arena saw Klitschko come close to putting Briggs on the floor. But knowing that the American is a powerful puncher, who has managed to win 45 of his 51 victories by knock-out, the 39-year-old had to keep his guard.
Klitschko was so dominant throughout the fight that Briggs' corner must have come very close to throwing in the towel as their fighter was taking punishment.
Briggs, who said before the fight that he was going to knock-out Klitschko, admitted later that it was his most difficult fight.
"Klitschko is a real champion and deserves to be in the Boxing Hall of Fame."
Klitschko paid a tribute to his opponent. "I was surprised that he could take all my punches. He fought bravely and simply would not go down."
Klitschko's record goes to 38 knock-out wins in 43 fights, with two defeats, while Briggs stands at 51 wins from 59 bouts with six defeats. (dpa)

NFL free agents: Lions offer Reggie Bush full-time role
- Updated: March 13, 2013
Reggie Bush has received an offer to compete to be an every-down running back and start for the Detroit Lions, according to Yahoo! Sports NFL Insider Jason Cole.
Bush had long been a situational runner and pass-catcher with the New Orleans Saints before going to the Miami Dolphins in 2011 and enjoying success as a starter. Reportedly, he'd like to do that once again and prove he can handle the workload, and the Lions are prepared to give him that opportunity.
He will also have a chance to fill the same role in Arizona, and all things being equal, Detroit appears to be the more attractive scenario due to stability at the quarterback position that will invariably give the offense balance.
Bush was used as a pass-catcher and third-down back and kick returner for his first five seasons with the Saints. He blossomed with the Dolphins, however as a full-time ball-carrier, amassing totals of 1,086 yards in 2011 and 986 yards in 2012 while catching a total of 78 passes over the course of those two season. The same versatility that made him a household name while playing at USC could coincidentally help him reach prominence in a similar role with an offense that includes Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson, Nate Burleson and Brandon Pettigrew.
If Bush joins them, they could become as dynamic as the Super Bowl-winning Saints were in 2009.

PHOENIX (AP) - A Phoenix woman who pretended to have cancer in order to raise money for breast implants has been sentenced to a year in jail and three years of probation.
Court spokesman Kelly Vail says 27-year-old Jami Lynn Toler was sentenced Wednesday. She pleaded guilty in August to a theft charge in a plea agreement.
Authorities say Toler helped organize fundraisers and collected more than $8,000 beginning last September. Medical records obtained by Mesa police show she didn't have cancer and paid a plastic surgeon with the cash.
Court Commissioner Brian Kaiser also ordered Toler to pay restitution.
Police reports show Toler told her former boss she needed a double mastectomy and breast reconstruction but was uninsured. She told the same story to her mother and grandparents.
