November 26, 2014
8-1-05 - Funeral plans have been set for 52-year-old David Estes of Sherman, who was killed Saturday afternoon when the small plane he was piloting crashed into the waters of Lake Texoma.
A funeral service will be held Wednesday at 2pm at the Wynne Chapel on the Austin College campus.
DPS investigators say David Estes died on impact around 3:15 p.m. Saturday. Estes is a well-known businessman and the owner of Sherman's 'Tactical Tanks.' The company opened about a year ago and specializes in leadership and team-building activities.
Witnesses say there was a sputter of the engine, then a puff of smoke before the plane went down. Federal Aviation Administration spokesman John Clabes says Estes' body was pulled from the lake by witnesses in boats after his aircraft lost power and fell into the water. Clabes says the crash, which occurred near a marina, was
videotaped by several people in and around the lake.
Clabes says Estes did what's known as a hammerhead stall and nosed over. He had performed one maneuver successfully but the engine sputtered on the second attempt and he did not recover.
Estes leaves behind a wife and two daughters.
State patrol and FAA investigators are investigating the crash.

Despite the name, the Oakley Women's Power Two Tights won't cause exponential muscle growth or exponentially increase the arduous nature of your exercise regiment. These sleek performance tights move freely whether you're running, hiking, or powering through a fast-paced circuit workout at the gym. O Hydrolix technology takes your sweat and sends it elsewhere so you don't wind up cold and clammy. Odor-causing bugs won't be pleased since these tights refuse to let them feel at home. Hide your emergency cash and house key in the small zip pocket, and take to the streets for some running fun.

We are officially announcing the launch of our Indiegogo campaign to raise money to help improve the programming of SwampCon Total Annihilation!

We've used almost everything to make sure we can maintain a two-day convention and give everyone who attends an opportunity to make memories.
Our event is and always has been a FREE multi-genre convention, but our costs and limited budget prevent us from providing all the features that we believe a quality convention needs.
Thus, we are launching this campaign and asking everyone everyone who wants to make SwampCon better to offer their help. Your support will go toward bringing more(and bigger) guests, bringing more main events, printing more con guides, and including more features to SwampCon Total Annihilation.
SwampCon is in no danger of ending or not happening. All we want is to make SwampCon as big and great you want it to be!
Remember that every donation counts and with every donation comes a cool perk! Check it out!

tech in the spotlight
Posted by Barry Silverstein on January 8, 2013 11:16 AM
The annual International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) that's now underway in Las Vegas is not only the world's biggest trade show, but a snapshot of how the fast-moving world of technology innovation is impacting sectors. Witness automotive, such as Ford's just-announced mobile partnerships to enhance the brand's in-car connectivity platform as part of a bigger CES push by car manufacturers this year.
CES is also a soapbox for competitors to one-up one another as they spit out product announcements and flaunt new alliances. This year, the rivalry is particularly fierce in the web TV/digital streaming arena.
"As new Internet TV players look to invade the living room, some cable and satellite operators are stepping up their embrace of Web technology to jazz up aging interfaces and head off subscriber defections, the Wall Street Journal reports from the show.
CES attendees include DirecTV and Dish Network on the satellite side, Verizon (FiOS) and AT&T (U-verse) touting Telco TV, and U.S. multi-system operators including Comcast, Time Warner Cable and Cox Communications are at CES to recast themselves as web TV purveyors and shake off the dreaded "cable operator" moniker. No wonder the U.S. National Cable & Telecommunications Association is reportedly considering dropping "cable" and rebranding to the U.S. Internet and Television Association (but, oddly, keeping the NCTA acronym).
AT&T's U-verse platform is introducing "Screen Pack," a $5 per month addition to existing subscriptions which enables customers to stream some 1,500 on-demand movies. AT&T plans to add more content in the future in an effort to thwart the flood of video streaming competitors in the space.Continue reading...

executive decision
Posted by Mark J. Miller on January 4, 2013 04:49 PM
As America's economy climbs back from some brutal years, plenty of folks are still looking for work. No matter how desperate they are, though, there are a few companies that they might want to avoid.
One of them is satellite TV provider Dish Network. It already has 26,000 employees, but the word is that not too many of them are happy. Last August, 24/7 Wall Street named it the Worst Company to Work for in America. Now that's an accolade to put on your LinkedIn profile.
What makes it so bad? "Long hours, lack of paid holidays, and way too much mandatory overtime," Bloomberg Businessweek reports. And it's all because of one man: the 59-year-old legendary founder and chairman of Dish, Charlie Ergen, who maintains 53.2 percent of the company's shares and 90.4 percent of the voting rights.
Ergen has never met a penny he didn't pinch. And while that sometimes means making shrewd business decisions, it also means making such choices as installing fingerprint scanners at the doors to company headquarters that are rigged to send emails directly to HR if an employee is late. The company only put in the scanners after Ergen noticed that the key/badge system was being circumvented by employees badging in for coworkers.
And the renowned cable-hater certainly has an eye for such detail.Continue reading...

Somebody at AT&T likes to see the company's logo around town. Dallas was named as the location for its new headquarters in 2008 and, since then, the telecommunications giant has put its name on the AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic and the AT&T Performing Arts Center there. Now, they are adding another local sponsorship: the AT&T Byron Nelson golf tourney, which serves as a fundraiser for both Salesmanship Club Youth and Family Centers as well as the pocketbooks of a few big-name pro golfers.
This will actually be the second PGA tournament that AT&T will sponsor, having signed on with the inaugural big-bucks National event held in the D.C. area every Fourth of July weekend since 2007. AT&T will have to wait till 2015 to get its name on Byron Nelson, though, since HP has its name there till then (and has had it there since 2003), according to PGATour.com.Continue reading...

Aretha Franklin has a new album out, did you know that? It's called Aretha Franklin Sings the Great Diva Classics and it already debuted at #13 on the Billboard 200. On the album, Aretha covers some classic songs, like "I Will Survive" and "Midnight Train to Georgia". She also mixes it up with some "modern classics," like covers of Adele's "Rolling In the Deep" and Alicia Keys' "No One." To promote the album, Aretha has been giving some interesting interviews (I didn't know her inaugural bow-hat was in the Smithsonian), and one interview (with the Wall Street Journal) in particular has gotten a lot of attention lately.
Here's the WSJ video – if you just want to listen to her IDGAF dismissal of so many of the younger girls, skip ahead to about 3:30. But the whole video is pretty good. She's fiesty and she's not going to talk about stuff that she doesn't want to talk about.
Nicki Minaj? "Hmmm. I'm going to pass on that one." Taylor Swift? "Great gowns, beautiful gowns." She was nicer about Adele, calling her a "good singer" but the way Aretha says "I haven't met her" makes me wonder if Aretha even wants to meet Adele. About Alicia Keys, Aretha says: "Young performer, good writer, producer."
So… the shade. I'm actually starting to feel a little bit sorry for Minaj. It feels like a lot of people have been yelling about or at her lately. Minaj just wants to sing about butts, it's not that controversial! As for Aretha's complete apathy towards even recognizing Swifty as a singer… that's beautiful. It really is. Taylor isn't much of a vocal talent and I get the feeling that Aretha is old-school about that kind of thing. If you want to call yourself a singer, you better have a VOICE. So, failing that, Aretha just said something nice about Swifty's gowns. Ha!

DEFINITION of 'Accelerator Theory'
An economic theory that suggests that as demand or income increases in an economy, so does the investment made by firms. Furthermore, accelerator theory suggests that when demand levels result in an excess in demand, firms have two choices of how to meet demand.
- Raise prices to cause demand to drop.
- Increase investment to match demand.
The accelerator theory proposes that most companies choose to increase production thus increase their profits. The theory further explains how this growth attracts more investors, which accelerates growth.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Accelerator Theory'
The accelerator theory was developed early in the twentieth century by Thomas Nixon Carver and Albert Aftalion, among others. Although this theory was conceived before Keynesian economics, it emerged just as the Keynesian theory came to dominate the economic mindset of the twentieth century. Critics argue that accelerator theory should not be used because it eliminates the possibility of controlling demand through price controls. However, empirical research on the accelerator theory has supported its use.
The accelerator theory is interpreted to create economic policies. For example, would it be better to use tax cuts to create more disposable income for consumers who would then demand more products, or would it be faster to give those cuts to business, which will then be able to use more capital for growth? Every government and their economists create their own interpretation of accelerator theory and the questions it can be used to answer.

Don't be silly. TOS is near and dear to my heart, and the Trek I grew up on, but even I wouldn't be so presumptuous as to assert that it's the only "true" Trek. The latter series and movies have all contributed to the vast edifice that is Star Trek.
At this point, I kinda want to vaporize the words "true" and "real" from all discussions of Trek, as they're usually just employed as clubs by people who feel their view of what Star Trek "should" be trumps any other approach.
Sorry, but Greg Bear is the only true Greg, so your contributions cannot be relied upon.
I used to joke about putting together an anthology titled THE ULTIMATE GREG, which would feature contributions by Greg Bear, Greg Benford, Greg Egan, Greg Costikyan, Gregory Frost, and John Gregory Betancourt.
I'd edit it and write the jacket copy, of course!
actually, I think I'd read that, but most of the authors' work I like are novels, not short stories.

Heads Up: 10 Fastest Growing and Declining Cities
According to Derek Thompson's article for The Atlantic, the Brookings Institute recently published a ranking of the world's 200 largest metropolitan economies. The Global MetroMonitor division of the Brookings Institute, published the report on January 2012. In this brief synopsis, he reveals the "10 Fastest-Growing (and Fastest-Declining) Cities in the World". Among the fastest growing is Santiago, Chile, the only Latin American country in the top 10. The top 10 is primarily populated by Asian countries – China, Turkey and Saudi Arabia all have multiple cities in on the list. Conversly, the tail end of the list is dominated by Western European countries most affected by the economic downturn, with just two cities from the US – Sacramento, California and Richmond, Virginia.
The survey primarily focuses on their economic development comparing income and job growth, to say nothing of the cultural, societal, and political circumstances which may or may not be contributing the dynamism of each city's economy. Thompson points out, two of the fastest growing cities in the world, Izmir, Turkey and Santiago, Chile are also among the poorest. Developing countries have the most to gain as they join the global economy but it may still be sometime before the economic growth balances a comfortable standard of living. Watch the interview with Alan Berube from MetroMonitor.
With all of that in mind, follow us after the break for a look at the list.

Chipperfield highlights that the Venice Biennale is about "what is not private, but what is common."
The architecture exhibition will open to the public August 29th, 2012.

David Chipperfield states, "I want this Biennale to celebrate a vital, interconnected architectural culture, and pose questions about the intellectual and physical territories that it shares. In the methods of selection of participants, my Biennale will encourage the collaboration and dialogue that I believe is at the heart of architecture, and the title will also serve as a metaphor for architecture's field of activity."

Pope 'led cover-up of child abuse by priests'
Related Articles
Published: 30 September 2006
In 2001, while he was a cardinal, he issued a secret Vatican edict to Catholic bishops all over the world, instructing them to put the Church's interests ahead of child safety.
The document recommended that rather than reporting sexual abuse to the relevant legal authorities, bishops should encourage the victim, witnesses and perpetrator not to talk about it. And, to keep victims quiet, it threatened that if they repeat the allegations they would be excommunicated.
The Panorama special, Sex Crimes And The Vatican, investigates the details of this little-known document for the first time. The programme also accuses the Catholic Church of knowingly harbouring paedophile clergymen. It reveals that priests accused of child abuse are generally not struck off or arrested but simply moved to another parish, often to reoffend. It gives examples of hush funds being used to silence the victims.
Before being elected as Pope Benedict XVI in April last year, the pontiff was Cardinal Thomas Ratzinger who had, for 24 years, been the head of the powerful Congregation of the Doctrine of The Faith, the department of the Roman Catholic Church charged with promoting Catholic teachings on morals and matters of faith. An arch-Conservative, he was regarded as the 'enforcer' of Pope John Paul II in cracking down on liberal challenges to traditional Catholic teachings.
Five years ago he sent out an updated version of the notorious 1962 Vatican document Crimen Sollicitationis - Latin for The Crime of Solicitation - which laid down the Vatican's strict instructions on covering up sexual scandal. It was regarded as so secret that it came with instructions that bishops had to keep it locked in a safe at all times.
Cardinal Ratzinger reinforced the strict cover-up policy by introducing a new principle: that the Vatican must have what it calls Exclusive Competence. In other words, he commanded that all child abuse allegations should be dealt with direct by Rome.
Patrick Wall, a former Vatican-approved enforcer of the Crimen Sollicitationis in America, tells the programme: "I found out I wasn't working for a holy institution, but an institution that was wholly concentrated on protecting itself."
And Father Tom Doyle, a Vatican lawyer until he was sacked for criticising the church's handling of child abuse claims, says: "What you have here is an explicit written policy to cover up cases of child sexual abuse by the clergy and to punish those who would call attention to these crimes by the churchmen.
"When abusive priests are discovered, the response has been not to investigate and prosecute but to move them from one place to another. So there's total disregard for the victims and for the fact that you are going to have a whole new crop of victims in the next place. This is happening all over the world."
The investigation could not come at a worse time for Pope Benedict, who is desperately trying to mend the Church's relations with the Muslim world after a speech in which he quoted a 14th Century Byzantine emperor who said that Islam was spread by holy war and had brought only evil to the world.
The Panorama programme is presented by Colm O'Gorman, who was raped by a priest when he was 14. He said: "What gets me is that it's the same story every time and every place. Bishops appoint priests who they know have abused children in the past to new parishes and new communities and more abuse happens."
Last night Eileen Shearer, director of the Catholic Office for the Protection of Children and Vulnerable Adults said: "The Catholic Church in England and Wales (has) established a single set of national policies and procedures for child protection work. We are making excellent progress in protecting children and preventing abuse."
Panorama: Sex Crimes And The Vatican is on BBC1 tonight at 10.15pm.

Lou Reed, Green Day, Joan Jett, N.W.A., The Smiths, Bill Withers, The Spinners among Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees
Dan DeLuca, Inquirer Music Critic
Nominees for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015 have been announced. These aren't the acts that are going in. They're the acts who are candidates to get in. Out of these 15, five to seven will be chosen.
This year, Hall & Oates went in. This year's Philadelphia connections are The Spinners and Joan Jett.
And the nominees are:
God only knows there are a lot of pop stars in the BBC promo clip of the Beach Boys "God Only Knows"
Dan DeLuca, Inquirer Music Critic
Today, on the 17th anniversary of the release of their noteworthy all-star version of Lou Reed's "Perfect Day," the BBC put out a bold faced named super lush promo clip on the Beach Boys' "God Only Knows," from their 1966 masterpiece Pet Sounds.
Brian Wilson is there, along with the BBC Concert Orchestra and Lorde, Pharrell Williams, Sir Elton John, Florence Welch, Kylie Minogue, One Direction, Chris Martin, Steve Wonder, Chrissie Hynde, Jamie Cullum, Dave Grohl, Sam Smith, Baaba Maal, Jake Bugg, Jools Holland, Brian May and Emeli Sande, among others. Bengal tigers, too.

Once upon a time there was a World Cafe - the syndicated radio show hosted by WXPN deejay David Dye - but there was no World Cafe Live, the superb sounding West Philadelphia music venue housed in a former industrial pllumbing building that also is home to the University of Pennsylvania radio station.
Ten years ago that changed when local entrepeneur Hal Real, taken with the idea of "creating live music for grown ups," opened the WCL. My colleague Dan Rubin and I wrote about all about it back in 2004 . Thsi fall, both XPN and the WCL are celebrating a decade of togetherness. The radio station begins its countdown of the 885 best songs of all time - as chosen by listeners and "celebrity" voters - on Oct. 20. And the music venue is feteing itself tonight, with a multi-act evening taking palce in both the cozy upstairs and more capacious downstiars rooms.
Acts playing throughout the evening include New York based troubadour Sean Hayes, and headliner Valerie June, the terrific Memphis songwriter with the best hair in rock and roll who describes her a little bit of country a little bit of blues sound as "organic moonshine roots music." After recording three albums admired by a cult audience, she gained wider exposure with the Dan Auerbach-produced Pushin' Against A Stone, which was one of the best albums of 2013.

Next month, Forbes magazine is putting on its first 'Under 30 Summit' in Philadelphia, a confab aimed at young tech entrepreneurs that aims to be a sort of mini-SXSW, with panel discussions, interview sessions and "Shark Tank"-style competitions taking place all day long at the Pennsylvania Convention Center on October 20 and 21.
All manner of bold face names will be in town, from Tinder co-founder Sean Rad to Shake Shack restauranteur Danny Meyer to America Online boss Steve Case to supermodel Petra Nemcova to Paypal's Peter Thiel to Sixers owner Josh Harris to Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai to, for some reason, Monica Lewinsky.
And of course, there's music. On Sunday October 19, the event kicks off with the 'Under 30 Music Festival,' which is really just one multi-act show happening from 4 to 9 at the Piazza at Schmidt's in Northern Liberties. The headliners are Nick van de Wall, the Dutch DJ-producer better known as Afrojack, and Wiz Khalifa, the weed-loving "Black and Yellow" Pittsbugh rapper whose wife of one year, Amber Rose, filed for divorce from him this week.

No wonder Jack White hates the Black Keys.
Just like the White Stripes, the duo that White used to play in with his drumming ex wife Meg,
The Black Keys are a rock tandem formed around the turn of the millennium with the cojones to attempt to build a mass audience in a hip-hop-pop-country-electro world the hopelessly old fashioned way: by playing the blues.

In the Inquirer's bright and shiny new Live Life Love arts section on Sunday, I've got an interview with Jeff Tweedy of the estimable American rock band Wilco who will play the Merriam Theater on South Broad Street on Sunday along with his 18 year old drummer son Spencer (plus three other musicians). That column is here. They'll perform as a band known simply as Tweedy, the name under which the father and son will release their debut album, Sukierae, on Tuesday. Pick up a Sunday paper and read all about it.
Besides what he has to say in LLL, Tweedy, who's recently made amusing appearances on Portlandia and Parks and Recreation, talked about why he tends toward the taciturn when on stage with Wilco but can be a laugh riot when doing solo shows. "Whenever I start talking between songs with Wilco," he says, laughing. "I feel like there are five guys standing behind me looking at their watches."
When asked what he's been listening to lately, Tweedy gave props to punk rockers Parquet Courts and garage rocker Ty Segall. He couldn't share the names of the bands he's been listening to the most, however, "because I can't pronounce them." The singer-guitarist said he's been spending a lot of time listening to re-issues of 1970s Scandinavian prog-rock. "I know that sounds just ridiculously obscure," he said. "But to me, that was still a time when any shape of music music could be considered a rock song. It wasn't being made to fit into an FM radio album oriented rock format. That is still a great source of inspiration for me."

Far more clever than most Brit wit Lily Allen comes to the Electric Factory tonight, The 29 year old singer-rapper is in town for the second time in less than two months - she opened up for Miley Cyrus at the Wells Fargo Center in August - in support of her third album, Sheezus.
The cheeky set with the title that plays off Kanye West's Yeezus is not quite so artistically successful as the daughter of comedian Keith Allen's first two hit albums, 2006's Alright, Still and 2009's It's Not Me, It's You. The album made a rough entry into the market place when the video for the album's first single, "Hard Out Here," muddled the song's message about unfair double standards applied to female pop stars by employing a team of twerking dancers that led to charges of Cyrus-esque cultural appropriation.
Watch the video below, and you be the judge. Samsaya opens. It's an all ages show. Details are here.

With each passing Justin Townes Earle album, it seems increasingly pointless to talk about the 32 year old Nashville songwriter in relation to his well respected father Steve. Sure, they've both got the songwriting gene, but Justin has a fully developed sophisticated folk-blues-country style of his own, and his new Single Mothers come across with his usual acute intelligence and unflinching honesty without ever settling for predictable confessionalism.
He plays the Ardmore Music Hall tonight, with American Aquarium opening. Show details are here.
Here's what the Inquirer's Nick Cristiano wrote about Eearle in last Friday's Wkend section. Single Mothers' "White Gardenias," Earle's thank you to Billie Holiday for teaching him how to sing, is below.

Big Bear Lake, CA, May 9, 2014 – This week, the U.S. Alpine Ski Team announced their nominations for the 2015 roster. There are some very familiar names among the 38 athletes, like Olympians Bode Miller and Lindsey Vonn. And joining them is 17-year-old Stephanie Lebby of Big Bear Lake. She trained and began racing for the Snow Summit Race Team then the Squaw Valley Ski Team. She and only one other teenager were selected for the Women's Development Team. This makes Stephanie the youngest member of the US National Team.
Lebby will participate in the 2015 NorAms and Europa Cup with her sights set on competing on the World Cup circuit. The team will be formally named in a ceremony at the fall Nature Valley First Tracks at Copper Mountain, Colorado – home of the U.S. Ski Team Speed Center.

"The market reacted exactly the way they wanted it to, which was to flatten the yield curve. I think the point is clear: Policy makers are going to do whatever they can to help the Fed. The rate cuts that the Fed is putting through are only hitting the short curve; they're only psychological."

About Helmut Lang Deals
The Helmut Lang fashion brand was created by Austrian fashion designer Helmut Lang. Lang is known for his minimalist, deconstructivist, and often severe designs. His fashion house became famous in the late 1980s for its simple but refined designs, its slim suits in black or white, its denim collection, and the use of high-tech fabrics. Helmut Lang fashions were sold in upscale department stores and through select retailers, as well as in signature Helmut Lang stores around the world. In 1999, Lang entered into a partnership with Prada Group which resulted in the acquisition of the Helmut Lang brand by Prada in 2004. Throughout the years, both a women's and men's line existed, kept under a single name and always presented in one fashion show. Underwear and jeans lines as well as accessories, such as footwear and fragrances were launched, but otherwise the brand was kept unified to solidify its identity and strength. Today, Helmut Lang is a part of the Link Theory family of brands and is once again offered in high end department stores. Shop their extensive collection of apparel across categories like exclusives, outerwear, jackets and blazers, dresses and skirts, shirts and tops, knits and tees, sweaters and cardigans, pants and denim, and shoes and accessories. Be sure to get great additional savings, discounts and deals on your next purchase or order by taking advantage of Helmut Lang coupon codes, special promotions and exclusive offers. Past deals include free shipping and free returns on all outerwear orders and savings of 25% on your first order.

Humpday happenings

lol Did anyone see the news about the term "humpday" possibly being banned from school?
Jean-CONGRATS on your raise!
SJ-my granddaughter goes for spinal surgery on the 24th. We are hoping to keep her well until then. I am praying she keeps the ability to walk. She is to start a special needs preschool in January so she can get therapy 5 days a week.
It's Insanity for me today and then probably some grilled chicken for dinner. The weather is going to be beautiful the next few days so I am hoping to get out and take advantage of it.
What is everyone else up to?
|Thu, 10-10-2013 - 1:56pm
That's why I love my capri sweatpants. The elastic around the bottoms make them fit lengthwise, the drawstring on top fit no matter how much weight I put on. If I ruled the world, that would be the uniform!
|Thu, 10-10-2013 - 8:52am
Women should have clothes that fit. Karla, you should get some pants either made for you or tailored to you. You are more than worth it.
|Thu, 10-10-2013 - 8:06am
LOL I totally forgot about stirrup pants. I always wanted a pair but never had any because I was too tall and could never find them in my size.
Since I have been the same size since I was 14, most of my clothes usually wear out. I have never been much of a clothes person (nothing ever fits) so I don't have that much stuff to begin with.
I need to get myself a couple of pairs of new slacks but the brand I typically get stopped making my size. Ugg!
|Wed, 10-09-2013 - 10:26pm
That's a sweet story about the police officers. I can see why some people might have problems w/ them and there are obviously ones w/ issues but I've run by mostly very polite, friend P.O. Of course, I'm the demographic that isn't the least bit threatening, being all of 5' or so. I love the piano idea, too. We have panda bear statues but pianos are also usuable.
Since I've studied the Corrective exercise curricula, I've become a big believer in foam rolling. It's often done incorrectly so it's good that there's a class in it. It is painful, though, in a good way.
|Wed, 10-09-2013 - 8:53pm
Gymrat, I just threw away some stirrup pants from the 90's...I loved them, but I needed the drawer space...plus the 'snap' had gone out of the elastic...I am trying to throw stuff out but it is very hard for me....I wanted to share what I think is a nice story..the school bus drivers in Boston had an unexpected work stoppage yesterday...so the police mobilized, rolled out the 'naughty boys' buses, drove around the city and delivered kids to school. Even plain clothes detectives donned uniforms so kids would know they were police. One officer Even had a girl send his picture to her mother so she would be omfortable with him...talk about Officer Freindly. This is the same police force tht responded so heroically to the Boston Marsthon bombing and it's aftermath....and another great Boston story...we are having something called 'the Piano Project'. There are 75 pianos scattered around the city. The ones i've seen are outside, and they are artistically painted...and every time I walk by one, some random person s playing..not some famous person, just someone walking by who saw the piano, sat down and started playing. It only lasts until next week, but I hope it returns next year, because I think it is so cool....so many people have musical talent and we don't realize it. One of my retirement dreams is to buy a piano and take lessons...and practice....I went o the gym, foam rolled, and them lifted for legs. Foam rolling is surprisingly hard. I do it because my trainer teaches he class and I want o support him but I am starting to look forward to it. Hope everyone has a good night!

Hi all! Desk shopping was successful yesterday - soon I shall have a "proper" place to do my writing. We got DH a desk too so it will finally be a nice room instead of a "crap" room.
At OP's this morning, trying to work on articles while I've got dog noses in my face. Not sure about a workout today. DH is sick so I might stay over here. Not sure yet.
LOL about hump day being banned from school. My current association with it is the camel commercial. I don't really watch commercials but I LOVE that one. There are two camels on the way to OP's new place so every time we drive by, one of us says "Hump Daaaaay!"
Jean, I say dump it. It's kind of the same philosophy as clothes... just because stirrup pants might come back in style doesn't mean you should keep them. Besides, you have exercise ADHD so at some point, someone will invent something else you'll want to do and regular gym classes will seem so 2011.
SJ, I hate waiting too. Read a good book or something to make the most of your day.
Stephanie, how awesome you can come home to walk the dog!
Karla, keeping your grandbaby in my thoughts. You are such a strong woman.
FSN, that's good news about the blood pressure.
|Wed, 10-09-2013 - 10:31am
You're here early! I'm with you on hating to wait. When I worked at New England Telephone, some manager had the bright idea that we could give people windows of time when we'd be there and charge extra for it. The judge came back and told them, if they could do it, then they needed to do it as customer services goes and not charge for it. Busted! This was back when it was a monopoly and controlled.
My daughter does want to do capoiera and aerial silks so she has other interests, plus ski season is coming up. She'll stil be dancing three days a week, just not competition team (yay, no more dance moms). She is terrible at the zumba movements and some of the moves we do are REALLY sexy. I'm not sure she needs to be doing that!
Like these:
|Wed, 10-09-2013 - 10:22am
I wonder if I can freeze it. Normally, there has to be some kind of event, injury, temporary moving, job loss. I can ask, though.
