You've done your homework, made your plan, tossed out all your cigarettes and now the big day is here: Day One of your plan to quit smoking. You've probably heard that nicotine withdrawal is unpleasant and that most people need to quit several times before they reach their goal. But the good news is that, if you can make it through this first day and this first week, when nicotine withdrawal symptoms are at their worst, you will be on your way to success.
One of the most important things you can do right now is remind the people around you that today is the day you are quitting cigarettes and ask for their help. This might mean asking some people not to smoke around you, so that you aren't tempted to give in to a craving.
You may experience a range of nicotine withdrawal symptoms today or during this first week. It's not unusual to have four or more of these reactions:
Cravings for cigarettes (nicotine)
Weight gain
Increased appetite
If your doctor has prescribed nicotine replacement products, such as nicotine patches, be sure to use them as directed to help relieve symptoms. If he or she suggested antidepressants, which are sometimes helpful, make sure you understand how and when exactly to take them.
Here are no-cost or low-cost strategies for meeting today's challenges:
Plan a new morning ritual. If smoking was a big part of how you started every day, create new positive habits, like making a healthy breakfast from scratch. Ideally the activity should last an hour or more and keep you busy and distracted.
Plan activities. Schedule activities that you enjoy (but that you don't associate with smoking) to stay occupied and avoid feelings of boredom or frustration. It's OK to bribe yourself a little bit, too — reward yourself after you get through the afternoon without a cigarette by going to the movies or getting a manicure.
Lean on others for support. Ask friends and family to help motivate you, and reach out to support groups available both in person and online. Don't be afraid to contact them — you want to create a network of cheerleaders who will keep you on track.
Drive differently. If you smoked in your car — on your way to work or just the supermarket, for example — you might need to change your route, listen to new music, or find another way to drive without smoking. You might even consider joining a carpool or taking a train to shake up your daily commute.
Get physical. Taking a walk or jog or engaging in any kind of physical activity that you really like can reduce feelings of anxiety, anger, frustration, and stress that are often part of nicotine withdrawal.
Fiddle. If you enjoyed the feeling of a cigarette in your hand, find a small object, such as a paperclip, pencil, or even a squishy stress ball, that you can play with instead.
Keep your mouth busy. Try chewing sugar-free gum, sucking on hard candy, or chomping on fruits and veggies whenever you get a craving — have all these choices handy at all times.
Take a deep breath. Do deep breathing exercises as often as you need them to relieve stress, and every time you exhale, remind yourself that the urge to smoke will pass.
Seek out smoke-free distractions. Take advantage of public smoking bans by enjoying smoke-free places in your community. Savor the fresh air filling your lungs.
Create a plan to manage triggers. You probably have favorite times and places to smoke or certain stressful (but predictable) events that cause you to want to light up. Plan your day so that you avoid as many of your trigger situations as possible; have an alternative activity you can do when a trigger is unavoidable, such as drinking a glass of water rather than smoking during scheduled coffee breaks.
Cut back on alcohol. Not only does alcohol weaken your resolve to follow a number of healthy lifestyle options, it also often acts as a trigger for smoking. In particular, avoid any specific drinks you used to enjoy with a cigarette.
Distract yourself. If you find you have time on your hands, keep those hands busy with an interesting book or magazine to read or a puzzle to solve.
Know key contacts. If you have a weak moment, call a friend, a loved one, the American Lung Association helpline (800-548-8252), or the National Cancer Institute helpline (877-448-7848) for encouragement so that you do not reach for a cigarette.

November 26, 2014
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -- Tim Tebow is getting his first New York close-up.
At his introductory news conference Monday, the New York Jets backup quarterback, acquired from Denver last Wednesday, says he's grateful and excited to be with the team.
Tebow is speaking at a massive gathering that's being held at the Jets field house because the overflow of media was so great the session couldn't be hold in the team's normal press room. That's a first for any Jets player -- including starting quarterback Mark Sanchez.
The Jets No. 2 QB says he and Sanchez have known each other for three years and have a "great relationship."
Tebow is coming off a season of incredible comebacks with the Broncos, and the Jets are hoping he has more surprises left in him.
Coach Rex Ryan, general manager Mike Tannenbaum and owner Woody Johnson are not at the news conference. They're down at the NFL meetings in Palm Beach, Fla., far away from the wild scene at the team's headquarters.

Spoleto House Rental Photos and Description
House, 2 Bedrooms, 3 Baths, (Sleeps 6)
Casa Cristina
Nestled in a hidden valley in the foothills of the Apennine Mountains, lies the tiny village of Vallocchia a short drive from the city of Spoleto. The village is a quiet and friendly outpost where one can enjoy the peace and beauty of the mountains. Vallocchia offers a serenity and a way of life long forgotten in most parts of the world today.
The house itself offers the utmost privacy. The house was originally an old farmhouse/tower that was lovingly restored by an Academy Award winning Italian art director a decade ago. The top floor of the tower is the master bedroom, with a second bedroom a floor below, at street level. There is also a small bedroom off the living room with a twin bed.
The kitchen and living room are on the ground floor (one floor below street level) and both open onto their own terraces. Only Gioia and A.D., the village horses grazing in the pasture, impede the idyllic view of this stunning valley and the mountains surrounding it. In the basement is a third bathroom with shower and laundry facilities. The kitchen and bedrooms are connected by a circular staircase. The house has thick walls that keep it cool in the summer. You can also opt to close the shutters to keep out the heat of the day and then open them to let in the cool evening breezes.
Vallocchia offers many wonderful hiking opportunities, from treks to the nearby ancient chestnut forest - Vallocchia is legendary for its chestnuts - to spectacular hikes up into the mountains offering breathtaking views of this glorious mountain region. Also, the beautifully preserved medieval town of Spoleto is just ten minutes away by car. Here, one is centrally located for day trips to all the wondrous history, art and nature Umbria has to offer.
Keywords: House
- Suitability:
- Long-term Renters Welcome

About Kristine
We always wanted to give our daughter a second language and fantasized of doing it in Italy. One day the stars aligned, making our dream a possibility. Three weeks later we came upon Casa Cristina. It seemed too rich an experience to not make the leap. And what a leap it was. We were city folk unused to the quiet rhythm of nature but, looking for adventure, it didn't make sense to trade one city for another. And so we came to this historic mountain hamlet for a full year and fell in love. Our neighbors immediately embraced us. When the moving van couldn't make it through the narrow pass by Mimma's house, Lando called Aleandro in from the field. They hitched a flatbed up to Aleandro's trailer and made several trips, depositing all of our belongings onto the car park. Thus began what has been a decade of experiences rich beyond recounting. Pictured here is our daughter just before we took her down to Spoleto for her first day of school at the age of nine. She is now in her second year of college and working on her fourth language. Sharing our life and home here with other adventurous travelers has been a wonderfully rewarding experience.
Kristine and John
Kristine purchased this house in 1999
Why Kristine chose Spoleto
After visiting friends in the area for many years, we came to view this part of Italy as home. We fell in love with the house when we first saw it! The village is a protected historic site and one of the best preserved villages of its kind in all of Umbria.
Guestbook comments from the owner
Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your perfect Italian home. Daily we visited local towns and returned to relax in the hammock, sit by the fire, and eat around the family table. Our little one loved feeding the horses carrots and chasing the gray cat. We all enjoyed the Star Wars videos late at night. The perfect ending to another perfect day!
We hope to return some day.
Best regards,

Big Brother 13: Week 1 Saturday Live Feed Highlights| July 10, 2011 at 10:42 AM EST
Ahh. Saturdays are back for Big Brother. No competitions. No ceremonies. Just lounging by the pool, relaxing, and verbally demolishing people you've known for six days. I heart you Big Brother 13.
Rachel's nominees are not handling the pressure too well with one of them continuing to flip out at every turn. Read on to find out who lost support in the house on Saturday and who put the sun to good use.
Big Brother 13 Live Feed Highlights – July 9, 2011:
Big Brother 13 Live Feed Goes Poolside| July 9, 2011 at 5:39 PM EST
Living is easy in the Big Brother house today as the indoors lock-down ended and the HGs scrambled back in to the sun for an afternoon by the pool. It's just not fair to keep this fun only for the Live Feeds viewers, so here's today's look inside the BB13 house.
Of course, if you do want to watch then check out the Live Feed Free Trial along with the newly released Android App for mobile viewing. You know what to do.
Want to see a few more of the Porsche bikini pics? There's even some bare chested pics of Jeff and an unfortunately non-bare chested pics of Cassi. We've got those on our NSFW site for you. While these are pretty mild, there is NSFW content, so be careful.
If you're looking for Keith he's out of view, hiding in the corner and bending Rachel's ear over his betrayal at the hands of his duo partner, Porsche. Good luck with that, buddy.
Speaking of Rachel, if you're tired of the sun then maybe you should check out the moon. The moon, of course, being Rachel's behind last night as she changed.
Big Brother 13: Week 1 Friday Live Feed Highlights| July 9, 2011 at 12:13 PM EST
Here we go again. Just like the past few seasons we'll be bringing you daily Live Feed highlights of what happened the day before. Since a lot can happen in 24 hours, especially in the Big Brother 13 house, we pick out the highlights and save you some time. Some days are more exciting than others, but we'll have these Feed highlights for you every single morning to cover the past day. Enjoy!
The big news from Friday was the realization that Evel Dick, winner of Big Brother 8, had left the game leaving a void in the houseguest list and Daniele without a partner. Bookending the day was the Veto competition where three couples battled it out for the power to change Rachel's nominations. Read on to find out how it all went down.
Big Brother 13 Live Feed Highlights – July 8, 2011:
Android App Now Available For Big Brother Mobile Live Feed| July 9, 2011 at 9:20 AM EST
CBS has released the Android App to use for your Big Brother Live Mobile Access.
Update: CBS appears to have restricted downloads of the App to US-only. We are trying to get an answer on why and when it'll be available for Canadian users. I'll update here as soon as we learn more.
Here's how you can get the Big Brother mobile app and use it. First, you'll need your Live Feeds account sign-ed up and ready. Next navigate your Android browser over to the regular SuperPass site to watch the Feeds (you can use the link in your confirmation email from Real if you're new to the Feeds). SuperPass will recognize you're on an Android device and prompt you to each "Launch Application" (which you don't have yet) or "Get the Application." Select "Get." There you go. You're all set to watch the Live Feeds where ever you are with your Android device.
Keep in mind there is a monthly add-on fee for mobile device access. If you have a 3-month plan the cost is $9.99 total for 3-months of mobile access. If you have a monthly plan the cost is $4.99 for mobile access. Once you pay for use on one mobile device (Android, for example) you can then watch on another device (a second Android or even an iOS device).
Couple of things to note: There is no iPhone/iPad app. Those devices can watch mobile Live Feeds without it so just go to your regular SuperPass site. The mobile access does require an additional fee due to the licensing fees. So the app is free, the subsequent access to the Feeds is not. We have more details in our Big Brother Mobile FAQ.
Lastly, if you don't get the Live Feeds or don't want to pay for the mobile add-on then we have our Big Brother Network mobile Android App available for free with no ads. Our iPhone app is still in the queue for approval, but that will be here soon too.
Big Brother 13: Week 1 PoV Competition – Spoilers| July 8, 2011 at 11:29 PM EST
Big Brother 13 picks up steam today in its first week of action in the house and boy have things already been crazy with one HG leaving the game on Thursday. After Rachel revealed her nominations this week it was time for the Veto competition today where the nominees could fight for their chance at safety.
Read on to find out who won and what that means for the game this week.
Big Brother 13 Week 1 Power of Veto results:
BREAKING: Evel Dick Has Left Big Brother 13 – Update: CBS Releases Statement – Evel Dick Releases Statement| July 8, 2011 at 8:49 AM EST
Last night when the Live Feeds launched everyone noticed Evel Dick was no where to be seen (along with the Rachel's nominations). As the night wore on we found out Dick had been called to the Diary Room four hours before the Feeds came on. Slowly but surely Daniele, Dick's daughter, and the rest of the HGs became worried.
Now, in just the past few hours this morning, Daniele was called to the Diary Room where she learned Evel Dick has left Big Brother 13 for personal reasons. As a result, she has earned the Golden Key which will keep her safe until she is only one of ten remaining HGs but she can not compete in any competitions to help her alliance. Daniele stated Dick was already on a plane back to Colorado while earlier in the night other HGs wondered if it could be related to Evel's girlfriend. We have no other details.
Official Update – Well, it's official. Dick is gone. Here's the statement from CBS via EW:
"Due to a personal matter, Big Brother houseguest Dick Donato had to leave the game unexpectedly on Thursday. His departure will be addressed on the episode to be broadcast on Wednesday, July 13."
Evel Dick's Update Evel tweeted a couple of messages last night:
I will be releasing a public video statement on @RTVZone in the next couple days concerning my departure from the Big Brother House
But to squash the rumors, I am not in jail, don't have cancer, my mother son and girlfriend are not in the hospital & I was not kicked out
Don't bother asking me questions, I won't be answering… I will let you know when my public statement is posted on @RTVZone.
Thanks for all the concern and well wishes
Very glad to hear Evel and his friends are okay. We'll let you know when we hear more.
No word yet on if an eviction will still be held this week, but I can't help but feel it's too early to skip major game points like an eviction. I'm expecting the game to continue and production to use this as an opportunity to surprise us later.
Update: There are discussions that Evel Dick was disqualified for posting a video on his site, RTVZone.com. I've posted the video (warning: NSFW language in the final secs) below the break. I do not believe this was the cause of his departure. Evel was going to be a huge boost to the season and I just don't see production cutting off their noses over this. CBS' statement confirms my stance that Dick left by choice, not force.

Film Review: Death Race 3: Inferno (2012)
SYNOPSIS: Convicted cop-killer Carl Lucas, aka Frankenstein, is a superstar driver in the brutal prison yard demolition derby known as Death Race. Only one victory away from winning freedom for himself and his pit crew.

With the help of Jill Valentine and Carlos Olivera, Alice must find a way out of the city before it is destroyed by a nuclear missile.

Film Review: Event Horizon (1997)
SYNOPSIS: A rescue crew investigates a spaceship that disappeared into a black hole and has now returned…with someone or something new on-board. REVIEW: It's quite possible that Event Horizon may be among one of the most chilling films ever created.

Dreamfall: The Longest Journey
SPOILERS whats up with the ending?!?
First things first, I actually enjoyed the game, even though I generally don't like adventure games (besides the action variety, which this isn't) Anyways, loved the story, made it feel like there was a lot more going on in the world(s) then you actually get to experience, and it set up so many questions. I love questions... but, I loath unanswered questions. Did this game answer a single one? When the credits started rolling I felt my blood boil, were they really cutting it off right when I thought the story was reaching a climax? I hoped it was some kind of joke, and waited through the credits for the cut-scene that would answer everything but NO, they had to go and dump ONE MORE question. I mean, what the heck is Westinghouse doing back in '33? Who's that Chavor or whatever his name is? Then there's everything else, I mean April obviously wasn't killed by that weak little stab, Kian was only just beginning his revelation. What was that dream storm April found? Is it connected to the DreamCore between the divide? Who was the Profit, really? I can go on and on, I suppose this is already quite the rant... but I'm just explaining my frustration. I can understand leaving some loose ends for a sequel but those games still resolve the issue at hand. This game felt like it was cut off during the build-up of the story, nothing, and I mean nothing was resolved. Considering that all the game had was story, lets face it, combat sucked and the puzzles were easy, this was major fail.
"Can't I help humanity, and wear pants?"
-Yukinari, Girls Bravo
Dreamfall is a sequel to The Longest Journey (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Longest_Journey).
"Brian Westhouse is originally from Stark who now resides in Marcuria, and had been journeying in the Tibetan winter of 1934. Cortez saved him from near death and took him to a monastery. Although he is a non-shifter, he took part in a ritual that sent him through the divide. His path wasnt easy and got stuck in the divide for nearly 300 years before reaching Arcadia. Where he went, time doesnt pass as normal so he didnt age."
So basically, Brian was orginally from Stark, but got stuck in the divide for almost 300 years when he tried to shift (with that ritual that was performed at the beginning of Dreamfall).
Dreamfall will have a sequel eventually (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreamfall_Chapters).

The tour was the high point of our trip to Rome. The tour guides on the bus were extremely helpful and informative and the guide at Pompeii was excellent. I would have liked a bit more free time to wander at Pompeii and a shorter lunch but that is a very minor criticism of what was a very long but very enjoyable day.
Doing what: Pompeii Day Trip from Rome
Worked out really well. The guides and driver helped make the day. It was a 13 hour round trip but well worth it and not too much. We had 2 hours or so round Pompeii which was OK to see the main parts and more than get the feel of the place. You could spend a whole day there but considering the trip was from Rome and included Vesuvius it was a good agenda.

In both cases, the Half-Day Walking Tours well exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend them to anyone considering visiting Rome. First-class guides.

Highlight of my holiday in Rome. Fully recommended for those who love history, adventure, new experience and great lunch. It was 2 courses menu in one of local own family restaurant with wine and coffee. Atmosphere was priceless. Thanks to our tour leader Arthur

Our Cooking With Nona class was so much fun! After a long day of touring the Vatican we were able to relax with our wonderful hosts, Emma and Anatella. We were very "hands on" in preparing our meal, rolling our dough and making noodles for fettuccine, preparing sauce, meatballs and tiramisu!! Lots of laughter and enjoying meeting new friends. The class size was small (seven of us) which made it all the more intimate. Thank you for the highlight of our time in Rome. I do need to say that the instructions for finding the apartment was not complete on our confirmation. We found the address but we were missing the information on which apartment to go to. Thankfully, a couple helped us find the right place. Other than that we had a wonderful time with really delicious food. Thank you Anatella, you are delightful!!

Awesome tour from start to finish! We learned a great deal about the history, food/wine, people and geography of the area from our two professional tour guides Stefanie and Hector - Grazie! On site at Pompeii, Giorgio proudly echoed his Family roots as assistants to the archaeologists throughout the restorations. We really enjoyed the walk-through with him and this historical tour. All three guides have a wonderful sense of humour! Hector had us rolling in the bus aisles with his tips on crossing the streets in Rome, paying taxi fare/the drivers and ownership of our dinner table til we ask for the bill/how to ask for the bill if ignored. All could relate to what he was saying. Hilarious!
The pizza for lunch at Tiberious (included with tour) was frankly the best we ate while in Italy. It served us well for the Vesuvius climb! Grazie Antonnio for the amazing drive along some single lane hairpin curves up and down the mountain to the starting point of the climb. Phew! Spectacular view of the crater and the Gulf of Naples! Could even see the distant island of Capri.
It is a full day (7:30 a.m. to 8 p.m.) and we highly recommend this tour!

We did this tour the first day we arrived in Rome. It was a great way to get yourself oriented to the city and see and hear about so many of the historic sites. Our tour guide was great.
Doing what: Ancient Rome Half-Day Walking Tour
The staff at The Vatican office are fantastic. We used the hop on hop off bus constantly for the 3 days. You can hear all about the history of Rome and you are told which stop to get off at to see each site. There is also a wonderful guide and map and a Pass for transport. You get to see St Peter's, The Vatican and Sistene Chapel and bypass the endless queues. We used the Pass card to see The Colosseum and Pantheon. We went straight into The Colosseum as there is a quick queue for the Roma pass customers.
We stayed outside Rome, but all you really need is a hotel in the centre of Rome and the Omnia and Rome card. That way you can hop on and off the bus to each site and wander around Rome in the evening and enjoy the atmosphere and the sites. Would recommend the Omnia and Rome card to everyone. Well worth the money and the staff will help you with any query.

Fantastic trip the guides where amazing there knowledge and enthusiasm was first class. Well worth the day away from Rome

We found that the Rome Card and the Omnia Vatican Card was great value for money and we really enjoyed our holiday in Rome. The Hop-On-Hop-Off bus was a great asset, it got us around and about and were able to visit everywhere we wanted.
We will definitely return to Rome again in the future, as there is still so much more too see.

This tour was awesome! Our guide was fabulous. My 7 year old daughter was captivated throughout the entire tour. I was slightly worried that she would lose interest, but not a chance. Interactive games and fun was injected into this simplfied version of Rome 'back in the day'. Perfect for us adults too. Highly recommend.

The tour was fantastic and Syriana? was a great tour guide. The older chap that walked us around Pompeii was also fabulous and very interesting to listen to. There was just an ideal level of walking and we weren't too stuffed by the end. What an amazing place and we are so glad we finished our trip to Rome with a bang. I would like to also say that making this booking from our apartment in Rome two days before the trip was very simple. The booking process and meeting info that comes via email was very easy and ofcourse the e vouchers cause who has a printer on holidays?. all good from here. thanks ruth and robert from Melbourne

FTC Moving Closer To Challenging Google-AdMob Deal: Report
There are more signs that federal regulators may be ready to challenge Google's purchase of AdMob, the mobile advertising company it bought for $750 million in November.
The Wall Street Journal reports today that the groundwork is in place for a formal government challenge:
The FTC has assembled an internal litigation team to prepare for a possible effort to block the deal, according to people familiar with the matter. It also has sent letters to several of AdMob's competitors asking them to testify in sworn statements about the potential impact of the acquisition, according to several other people. In addition, the agency has briefed Congress about its concerns, people familiar with the matter said.
The Journal says FTC commissioners haven't voted yet on whether to try blocking the deal, and that Google's lawyers continue to lobby the commission in favor of the purchase. A Google spokesperson gave this statement to the Journal:
While we're continuing to work with the FTC, there is overwhelming evidence that mobile advertising will remain competitive after this deal closes.
Today's news falls in line with our similar report last month about the FTC's request for statements from Google's competitors.

Does Light Drinking during Pregnancy Relate to Behavioral or Cognitive Problems in the Child?
Data from the first 2 sweeps of the nationally representative UK Millennium Cohort Study, a longitudinal birth cohort study begun in 2001, were used to relate drinking patterns during pregnancy with behavioral and cognitive outcomes in children at 3 years of age (n=12,495). Behavioral problems were indicated by scores above defined clinically relevant cutoffs on the parent-report version of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Cognitive ability was assessed using the Naming Vocabulary subscale from the British Ability Scale (BAS) and the Bracken School Readiness Assessment (BSRA).
- There was a J-shaped relationship between maternal drinking during pregnancy and the likelihood of scoring above the cutoff on the Total Difficulties Scale and the Conduct Problems, Hyperactivity, and Emotional Symptom subscales of the SDQ. Children born to light drinkers were less likely to score above the cutoff than children of abstinent mothers, while those born to heavy drinkers were more likely to score above the cutoff.
- Boys born to mothers who had up to 1–2 drinks per week or per occasion were less likely to have conduct problems (odds ratio [OR], 0.59) or hyperactivity (OR, 0.71). These effects remained in fully adjusted models. Girls were less likely to have emotional symptoms (OR, 0.72) or peer problems (OR, 0.68) compared with those born to abstainers. These effects were attenuated in fully adjusted models.
- Boys born to light drinkers had higher cognitive-ability test scores compared with boys born to abstainers. The difference for the BAS was attenuated after adjusting for socioeconomic factors, while the difference for the BSRA remained statistically significant.

Tim Hudson pitched 6 1/3 innings in the series finale against the Cubs on Sunday. A day after the Braves rallied from a four run deficit in the final two innings they scored four in the fifth and sixth. Hudson allowed one run and three hits while striking out seven. For much of the game Hudson was overshadowed by Cubs starter Jeff Samardzija who struck out thirteen. The Braves got to Samardzija in the fifth when control got the best of the Cubs ace. Back to back wild pitches by Samardzija in the fifth allowed Braves shortstop Ramiro Pena to score in the fifth. In the sixth a walk, a single and a hit-by-pitch unraveled Samardzija. By the end of the inning a single by Hudson had given the Braves a 4-1 lead. Dan Uggla hit a solo home run in the ninth and Jordan Walden pitched the last frame.

I'm running from my dreaming, yet again. It's 6:50 am, but I've been up for more than five hours. I'm just gonna lay this one out and see how it plays. I can't remember how things stood when last I wrote, but the new deal is that I am making my parents miserable by my presence in their home and the plan all along was that I should be looking for a new place to live. That wasn't my understanding or the plan that I discussed with my mother. (If I ask my father for advice or to sit in on planning, he says "Oh, that's your mother's area" and walks off. Rather quickly, actually.)
My talks with my mother included a number of things: a) I need to establish good credit; to that end I got a secured credit card at my bank this month (√) b) Apply for school so that I can begin to think about working again, particularly since my social security disability insurance could be pulled next month during the three-year review (√) c) Work on my sobriety, my weight, my general health (√) d) Follow the rules of the household and try to keep separate as much as possible. Apparently this is where the breakdown has occurred and there will be no check-off mark, let alone gold star. I feel like I've tried very hard to please my parents, to be independent, and to get out of their hair by doing things (library, AA meetings, walks, volunteering at the animal shelter). From my parents' point of view, they have a moody, solitary, talks-to-herself, coffee-spilling, everything-losing, interrupting, late-night-food-sneaking, early riser living in their basement and shouting out answers to Jeopardy!—and arguing with contestants—where once it was quiet, so very quiet. And orderly. I can dig it.
My parents are technically elderly and both have health problems which are odd and are not being easily managed by their physicians. They have lived alone, like me, for some time. They have their routines, their "shows," their chairs, their everything. It's a large part of the reward of working hard, living a long time and having your children become independent and move to their own houses.
Enter the dragon.
<whinge>I had knee surgery on Tuesday, a week ago. I admit I was not the most pleasant person to be around at that time, but the pressures I think my parents put on me to somehow be a different person can sometimes be so overwhelming that I feel literally crushed inside my body. It's true that I have a perspective problem. But another problem I have is that my parents have convinced me that I have a perspective problem. This definitely works in their favor, you see. They have not considered that they, too, may have a perspective problem. I guess through their various talks with each other or maybe their friends or my siblings, it's been decided that I also have a persecution complex. To be honest, I cannot even find a reasonable facsimile of a definition of a persecution complex. My parents tell me I am overly sensitive (which was hurtful), defensive (I am at times, what about it?) and "take everything so seriously and personally." Well, this would be all very fine and good if we were, say, sitting down with a trained professional and the three of us all talking about our feelings and not having two people who have discussed you behind your back now confronting you with all your problems. </whinge>
In all fairness, I would have driven me to the train station after two days. Two strained days. Two strained days of heavy drinking. I have had some experience living with myself, you see.
Yesterday, I packed up and went to house sit for a new acquaintance. It was a perfect set-up. She's cool and she has a very nice house with just one level so I don't have to deal with stairs. Her house is centrally located so scoring rides to AA meetings isn't so difficult, and I could be alone in a tasteful environment to write my Cranky article, make a deep dent in my Fourth Step of the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, read and study the 37 children's books I have checked out from the library, have leisurely bowls of soup in the cold evenings, and sleep on her gargantuan and super-soft bed with nobody else around except a rather pleasant white with sort of tannish orange tones cat named Peter. After I dropped off my stuff, I went to an AA meeting at the library and when it was my turn to share, I unleashed more than a bit of hurt, anger, and despair: in other words, I cried and said the word "fucking" several times. After the meeting, several people tried to commiserate with me and they found out what my mother means when she says that I would stiffen as a baby when touched. I wanted to yell at them to get the fuck away from me but that's sort of frowned-upon post-meeting behavior. So I got a ride back to the house-sit and cried and whinged all the way.
It's getting late (I've been up since 1 am) and I'll have to shower soon so let me get to the point. I freaked out being alone and had to call for my mommy to come and bring me home. I took some of my pain medication, some melatonin, and my Yogi™ Bedtime tea and went to sleep around 7 pm. I'm going to make another run at house-sitting today, after my MRT (it stands for Moral Reconation Therapy for the 80th time). My mother has kindly agreed to drive me as my knee is still healing. I'm seeing the doctor tomorrow where I hope he will say "I've never before seen anything so remarkable as your recovery!" and "Let's get you scheduled for another partial knee replacement in the next few weeks! Why not get it over before the new year!"
Then my mom and I might take a look at the stores just in case they have a super cute pair of leggings for me and maybe some gloves. It's getting cold. Maybe we'll stop at the DMV and get a new identification card that shows me not so bloated with booze and without the two holes punched into it. I'm counting on getting my Ignition Interlock Device soon and on the road again with Scoobs, my car. My mother will drop me at the house where I am staying and hopefully, I'll immediately make a nice hot cup of coffee and sit down to write. Peter and I will bond again. I will work out the password for the wireless router.Then Tom might call and offer to give me a ride to an AA meeting and on the way, we can discuss my upcoming house-sitting job at his house on Livingston Bay. It's in a somewhat rustic state, but it is probably worth a million dollars. If we can come to arrangements which are mutually beneficial, then I will stay there for the three months or so while he is working on a film in Montreal, the city of my friends, The Canadians. I'm hoping they'll extend a maple leaf to him when he gets there to make him feel welcome.
I like living by the sea.
I'm registering for classes on November 20th. I am trusting in the universe aka my higher power to be sure that financial aid comes through so I can pay tuition. If it doesn't, then I will have to believe that there is a reason for that too. After first kicking some rocks dangerously close to my car.
And all along, I am going to have doubts, fears, and panic attacks. It's change, you see, and it's a bitch. But it sure beats lying next to the toilet on the bathroom floor of your filthy house in the middle of summer when you have promised to help your neighbor build a fence. Change. *shudder*
Nope. Not me. It's the Dave Matthews Band making their first appearance ever on any of my blogs. I dig this song. Heh. And it's where I'm at, yo.
Get heavy on with digging your ditch, cause I'm
digging a ditch where madness gives a bit…
I left my insulated overalls in Tiny Town. I'll have to get on to digging in regular ol' pants or maybe those cute leggings.

Van der Merwe called up by Boks
ESPN Staff
November 7, 2012
Heinke van der Merwe is in the Springboks mix © Getty Images
Leinster prop Heinke van der Merwe has been called up by the Springboks for the rest of their northern hemisphere tour.
When Heyneke Meyer originally announced the South African squad for the tour, he only named 31 players with a 32nd to be added at a later stage if required. There were reports suggesting that Northampton Saints' Brian Mujati was in the mix but Meyer has turned to Leinster front-rower Van der Merwe.
He has previously only played one game for the Boks which was back in 2007 against Wales and he also toured with them in 2009. And with Gurthro Steenkamp struggling with an injury, Van der Merwe may get his chance to add to his solitary cap.
Meyer commented on Van der Merwe's call up saying: "Heinke has played for South Africa before and is based in Dublin, making it easy for him to join the squad. I've been following his career and he has been playing well for Leinster, who are the Heineken Cup champions."

Google Updates AdWords Express Sign-Up Process, Ad Copy Preview And Dashboard
Google has updated the interface for AdWords Express, Google's AdWords product designed for small businesses.
Among the interface updates are a redesigned dashboard to show an at-a-glance look at ad views (impressions), clicks and calls generated as well as a pie chart that tracks monthly budget expenditures. A new performance graph allows advertisers to compare results over time.
A real-time ad creator tool now lets users see how their ad will look as they write their copy. Hovering over the icons at the bottom of the window allows advertisers to see a preview of the ad in the different ad formats available.
Google also reduced the account sign-up process to three steps: select your audience (geographic targeting), create your ad, and select your budget.
It's not clear how many small businesses Google has been able to bring on to AdWords Express, but the simplified account sign-up suggests the company may be challanged in bringing more small businesses onto the platform. The company ran a free month of advertising promotion toward the end of last year to try to lure new customers, and in January Google began promoting Google Express to SMBs on Google+.

Words by Eddie STATS Houghton
This week the Discovery Channel unveiled Marley Africa Road Trip, a new six-part travelogue following Marley brothers Ziggy, Rohan and Robbie (you haven't heard of him but he may be the best part of the show. He's a ninja.) as they tooled around the bright continent–specifically South Africa–on motorcycles last summer. Though we don't know how it ends (the first installment aired this Wednesday, Nov. 2nd) the epic road trip appears to culminate in a free concert in the black township of Soweto, the birthplace in many ways of South Africa's anti-Apartheid struggle, which finds elder brother Ziggy collaborating with local township musicians and reflecting on the formative experience of attending the infamous Zimbabwe Independence concert his father Bob played in 1980. The pics and trailer (below) which depict the brothers cruising across the grasslands behind free-roaming giraffes recall the lyric Lauryn Hill–the mother of Rohan's children–rapped on "Fugee-La": "Eatin calamari in the Kalahari / with a band of Rastafari." Or as it's known in the Marley household: Sunday brunch.

Most emcees, as they ascend to the upper echelons of the music game, take great pains to show that success hasn't changed them. Jersey phenom Voli, on the other hand, freely admits he's not the same man he was when he entered the game—judging by the transformations described in the chorus of new single Ashes ("Would you believe, I no longer breathe… I no longer bleed, my heart's drying up."), he may no longer be a man at all. Over his own majestic, guitar-laced grooves, the Booth fave chronicles his quest to conquer the music game, and his attendant personal evolution, in intense, driven verses. Fayetteville rapper/producer Ronnie C contributes a similarly epic guest 16. Though this joint isn't attached to the album, fans will be able to hear much more from Voli on forthcoming full-length The Wall, which (as he reveals in his rhymes) is tantalizingly close to completion.
