Kenyan and African women have fought many battles in their pursuance for equality and respect in society. Theirs has been a rocky path filled with tearful tales of brutality, dehumanization and even death. From the beaches of the Indian Ocean to the shores of Lake Victoria, women have risked their lives for the liberation of their gender.
From the legendary Mekatilile Wa Menza to the late Nobel Laureate Wangari Mathai; from the elderly Phoebe Asiyo to the brave Martha Karua, Kenyan women have struggled to defeat negative cultural practices that dehumanize them.
As Kenyans prepare for the 2012 general elections, women must strategise to win more elective positions since the constitution has expanded their space for gaining power. .........
Women in Kenya
Greetings, I agree that women need to be in the government, representing all women who have no voice. I am praying for Kenya's women daily and Leah. May God bless you.

Hi Wanjala,
I'm very glad to read a new post from this Through His Eyes group. I strongly believe that in every aspect of our society, the role and participation is extremely important. For a better society which will bring about positive change, we really need women politics, woman innovators, woman ministers, woman leaders, woman media icons, woman journalists and reporters and so on.
Best Regards,
Insha Allah

| No one should ever have to choose between her job and the health of her pregnancy.Unfortunately, that's exactly what many women find themselves facing. When employers refuse to accommodate pregnant workers with medical needs, women can end up without a paycheck at the moment they need it most.Stand with pregnant workers.When Peggy Young, a delivery driver for UPS, found out she was pregnant, her doctor recommended that she avoid lifting more than 20 pounds. But UPS refused her request for "light duty" — even though the company provided accommodations to people with disabilities or on-the-job injuries, and even though it gave breaks to delivery drivers who had lost their drivers' licenses as a result of DUI convictions.
Peggy was pushed onto unpaid leave for the duration of her pregnancy, and lost her UPS-provided health benefits.
In a few weeks the Supreme Court will hear Peggy Young's case, Young v. UPS, to decide whether UPS violated the Pregnancy Discrimination Act by refusing to offer her the same accommodations it made available to non-pregnant workers with similar limitations.
How the court rules in Young v. UPS will impact working women across the country. And because many families rely on mothers' earnings, when pregnant women are forced off the job and lose their paychecks and health care, their families suffer as well.
Send your message of support for Peggy Young and all pregnant workers today. We'll collect your messages and present them to Peggy Young on the day of the Supreme Court hearing, Dec. 3.
Thank you for all you do for women and their families.

In this week's edition, learn about amphibious dinosaurs, frozen bison mummies, and hummingbird combat.
While reading about and studying the processes that gave rise to this astonishing world, please don't forget that it is beautiful. It is not merely mechanics, but poetry.
Wright reminds us that robust Christian faith takes evidence on board, but fuses reason with faith, hope and love.
Read about the death of Wolfhart Pannenberg, still debating creation and evolution, and a really big dinosaur discovery.
This week's news features volcanoes, skeletons, and stars, as well as a thought-provoking new book from InterVarsity press.
While it is true that Goodwin and others believe that their discoveries pose a major challenge to neo-Darwinian orthodoxy, this does not cause them to abandon their belief that the history of life can be explained as the outcome of biological processes!
Musician Michael Gungor talks about the recent controversy over the evolution of his views on evolution, science, and biblical authority.
The purpose of Jesus's art was to give verbal, visual, and dramatic forms to those complicated and confounding relationships, symmetries, and harmonies between himself, the father and spirit, and between the triune God and the world… Such creative expressions did not and do not make everything clear, but rather resist simple clarity, forcing their hearers to come at the whole complicated truth from a position of intellectual and spiritual humility.
Everyone is so worried about success and getting this or that honorable diploma—the people here are smart and understand many complex things perfectly—but it's a long distance from the head to the heart.
Children's books are more than stories. They can become familiar narratives children listen to over and over. So it's worth asking - Are the books we're reading doing a good job of portraying God and His Creation?
We now take for granted an understanding of the Christian story that was largely worked out by Paul and later theologians. Even though the Gospels were composed after Paul's letters, they were concerned to tell the story itself in all its strangeness as it had been preserved by the first generation of Christians. And what we find in the stories themselves is the shock and wonder and surprise that the resurrection caused.
When you are in church, do you act and speak differently than when you are in school? Do you tend to compartmentalize what you learn about in Biology class from what you learn about in Sunday School?
Russell Crowe as Noah was no superhero. He was very human—perhaps too human for those who'd prefer he remain in the flannel graph world of our Sunday School stories.
The Psalmist is saying that when we walk outside and look up, the heavens are telling us two things about God: they tell us about his glory, and they tell us about what his hands can do.
Scripture gives us multiple ways of looking at things, and a classic example of this is the parables of Jesus. Many of these involve looking at nature. For example, natural events like seeds growing—and what Jesus seems to be saying is look there is a surface reading of nature—and then there is the deeper reading, where you begin to realize there are levels of meaning that we don't pick up on our first acquaintance.
As a Christian, I can't think of a more beautiful process for God to have blessed the production of the elements that we need for life than the beauty of stars. In fact, we are told that we shine like stars in the universe.
We can understand why man, modern man in particular, would like to mop the floors and bleach the walls. We might not be able to tame reality, but we can tame our perception of reality. We intellectualize in order to feel in control.
"For a few moments, it felt like our little church community was surrounded by glory. The wisdom of Christ in the hypothalamus was illumining the wisdom of Christ in the prophets and gospels."

- Cheats: On GameFAQs
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 5 out of 5
Mixed: 0 out of 5
Negative: 0 out of 5
Nov 3, 2011This is an easy recommendation to make and a far more satisfying experience than the previous Legacy DLC.
Oct 18, 2011A neat little expansion, well formed and surprisingly well-paced; if you enjoyed the main game, it's definitely worth a download.
Nov 7, 2011The only serious drawback of this DLC is that you cannot change the outcome of its story.
Nov 23, 2011A fine add-on offering diverse and fun gameplay variations, some of those never before seen in the series. [December 2011, p.92]
Nov 15, 2011You never know what to expect from Bioware when they create a new DLC. Sometimes they are decent, more often not. Legacy and Mark of the Assassin are pleasant surprises in the continuum. The adventures are well written, Tallis is a compelling new character and the combat is challenging enough. The add-ons are solid work, but not extraordinary by any means. [Nov 2011]
Score distribution:
Positive: 8 out of 17
Mixed: 2 out of 17
Negative: 7 out of 17
Oct 11, 2011Bioware does it again! A truly worthy addition to what PC Gamer crowned the "best RPG of this decade" Dragon Age II Mark of the Assassin surpasses everything gamers have come to expect from DLC. The lovely Felicia Day comes alive as Tallis in a performance so convincing and immersive it as if you were actually exploring the world of Thedas with the actress herself. The new stealth based mechanics are simply amazing and add hours of replay value to an already incredible game. Now not only can you think like a General and fight like a Spartan, but you can now sneak like a Ninja as well. Bioware has shown that they are the modern day masters in the gaming industry, providing in a DLC better stealth based combat and avoidance than seen in the Metal Gear Solid and Assassins' Creed series. Truly this is a must buy and one can only marvel at what next exciting chapter awaits Dragon Age II.… Expand
Oct 13, 2011I just have to say this Dlc is good, interesting, stealthy, misterious and a big diamond as a present. I just hope that there will b more DLC for Dragon age 2 until Dragon age 3 Exiting date will be reviled!… Collapse
Oct 12, 2011Let me start with what's bad. The biggest issue here is, of course, the price. Ten bucks is a lot of money to ask for a single-player DLC that can be finished in less than five hours. To top it off, it does not add much to the core game, without any real impact on Hawke's saga as a whole. The second issue is the stealth-gameplay. While I can appreciate the effort Bioware put in to this section, it feels out of place, and can be very frustrating. How do my stealth skills not work here? I've crafted a guile and shadowy Hawke, yet he's unable to use the abilities I purposely gave him. Lastly, the puzzles are a mixed bag, while challenging and engaging at times, they also become tedious. There addition feel a bit heavy-handed and superficial. It's also a bit unrealistic that a manor's vault and treasure will be protected by color-coded magical doors and pressure plates, when I'm sure locks will be more efficient (I know this because the outside locks cannot be picked by either you or Tallis, meaning they work better at protecting your stuff than puzzles do).
Now for the good, while I cannot recommend one to pay this much for the game, I can certainly tell you there is a beautiful and complex story here, one worth hearing and experienced. Packed with numerous exploratory elements, with more sidequests than I thought they can put in a typical DLC, this part of Hawke's tale is the most interesting and most involving I've come across. There is a personal sidequest for all your companions, there is significant interaction between who you take with you. They aren't just staring into blank space at all times. There is much you might miss if you rush it, and what you might miss feels so personal, that I would implore you to try again with another character with different companions. No matter the gameplay flaws, Bioware remains the king of videogame writing, and Mark of the Assassin is a shining jewel in the crown that king wears. And for this, I don't regret the purchase.
In the end, the DLC is almost a return to form in Bioware's legacy. It has its awkward and sometimes forced gameplay mechanics, muddling a well-told, immersive, and engaging tale, which is the right balance of linearity and open-endedness. So buy it, if you want to play a subtle, endearing, and personal gaiden in Hawke's life; otherwise, RSVP "No" to this party.… Expand
Aug 24, 2013Once bitten twice shy. I bought played and disliked DA2 immensely. When offered this DLC it was a no-brainer to absolutely ignore it. I remembered buying all the DLC for DA Origins and yet every single but of it was rubbish. So I will avoid every DLC Bioware ever cooks up from here on out. Suggest that if the broad community of players refuses to buy their bad DLC they will have to adapt and start making DLC that actually enhances the game and represents true value for money.
THE GROT REVIEW CRITERIA: After a long time writing reviews like an anus, think its time to set a few bad habits straight: Stop insulting designers. Show some respect for the design process and getting games in circulation. Hence (1) No Red scores. (2) Game scores as follows: Bad Game 5/10. Poor Game 6/10. Mediocre Game: 7/10. Good Game 8/10. Great game 9/10. Stella Game 10/10. To get 10/10 it must be a game that can be (theoretically) play-able for 1000+ hours. Not only great but near endless fun. Games may be bad or poor but making them should earn respect. Thus even the worst POS will still be a 5/10. 0/10 no longer exists in my vocabulary. Yellow is the new red. For the sake of accountability: you can reply if needed: Orctowngrot: Tim Rawlins: firstname.lastname@example.com… Expand
Oct 27, 2011Sigh. Another failure from Bioware, something we've become all too familiar with lately. This DLC has much promise but in the end leaves off all substance. Conversations with NPCs are virtually non-existent and the ones that are are cut short. The ending is infuriating as Bioware continues its penchant for removing all choice from the player's hand, turning their games into the adventure genre rather than role-playing despite claiming to have listened to their fans who have repeatedly complained of this kind of laziness from the writers. The only positive to this DLC is the new scenery and enemies, but when looking at it objectively, it only looks good in comparison to how bad the original game was. One NPC even comments on that, saying that it's a nice change of scenery since all of Kirkwall looks exactly the same, a tongue-in-cheek reference to the developer's reuse of maps in the original. Guess what? Not funny. Kind of like this DLC. It's a bad joke.… Expand
Dec 4, 2011"Cities always teem with evil and decay. Let's give it a good shake and see what falls out!"
so i tried to shake DA2 and it's boring city, nothing fall out
"Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, watch it! I'm huge!"
so i avoided buyin DLc for this game, still i was curious, so went to a friend of mine and tried it...
i'm happy i didn't pay for this, Felicia Day is good in the Guild (or in Buffy etc..)leave her there and out of DA
if you loved DA2 (there's something wrong in you?) you can like also this money milking content, if like many others you didn't like DA2 avoid this stuff at all costs.
" I hit, to no effect!? I need a bigger sword!"
Minsc comes handy again, stop buyin their games if they don't make games that suit you… Expand
Apr 10, 2014Yaaay this DLC is total garbage. Well at least it is not 100% copy pasted like dragon age II, but story and everything in this DLC is boring. Mark of the Assasin is also very short . It is same cash in garbage lik half of the original dragon age DLC, but Original Dragon age was superb RPG, where dragon age II is total trash.… Expand

FORT MYERS, Fla. - The seven-year winner of the annual Veteran's Day Midpoint Madness 5k, John Biffar, came in second... but Biffar is the official winner again. Here's why: the first person to cross the finish line never registered to participate.
A WINK news photographer shot video showing as the "winner" crosses the line, beating Biffar, race organizers spot he doesn't have an official race number.
And he wasn't the only unregistered runner who joined the 847 officially registered runners.
"There were out of the first 20 finishers several people who didn't register, not just that first finisher," said Vice-president of the Fort Myers Track Club Kim Davis, "We don't have an exact number."
Those runners did something called "running bandit" - when you don't pay the race fee but run anyway.
"Some people will say 'Well you don't own the street so we can run where we want.' But especially with the Midpoint Bridge, it's not a place you can normally run on. The only reason they can run on it is because the Fort Myers Track Club and the YMCA did everything they needed to do to get the permits to close the road and get the police and sheriff's officers to close the roads," said Davis.
Even though the bandit was disqualified, the Fort Myers Track Club says the real losers are the charities the race fees benefit - which last night included the YMCA, United Way and PFC Corey Kent. Kent is a Cape Coral soldier who lost his legs from a roadside bomb in Afghanistan.
"That's who you're hurting," said Davis.
The Fort Myers Track Club learned the bandit is a member of the Florida Gulf Coast University men's cross country team. The coach contacted the club Friday afternoon to apologize on behalf of two runners who participated but did not pay. Those two runners are sending written apologies and have offered to pay the race fees.

Parent Information Workshops
Andrew College has a unique approach to orientation. All parents are encouraged to attend an "InSpire Day," where students receive PRIORITY REGISTRATION while their parents are introduced to college life from the "adult perspective."
As freshmen are meeting with faculty advisors and registering for classes, parents will meet the President of Andrew College and learn about the rich heritage of our institution and participate in informative sessions about campus technology, financial aid, residence life, and academics at Andrew. You'll also have an opportunity to discover if you are a "Helicopter, Lawnmower, or Blackhawk?" — in fun-filled and informative workshops. Lunch will be served in Turner Dining Hall for students and parents. After the day is over, parents and student will have an opportunity to meet and ask questions with the Financial Aid Office and Business Office as well as tour one of the four residence halls.
Here are some of the comments from our Andrew parents:
"I knew I was a 'Helicopter parent," but now I understand how to help my daughter transition to college life without attempting to "do it all for her."
"The Office of Student Affairs make the parent information workshops fun and entertaining … I'm more excited about my kids going to college now than they are!"
"I was really worried about sending my daughter off to College, but now I feel so much better knowing that she's in a place where people care!"

Vermont bill would hold nuke to shutdown promiseThe Associated Press | February 07,2013MONTPELIER — Vermont lawmakers are looking to firm up a promise made by the owner of the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant that it would take extra steps to clean up the plant's Vernon site after it shuts down.
Entergy Corp. promised when it bought Vermont Yankee in 2002 that it would take steps beyond the minimum required by the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission to restore the Vermont Yankee site to a green field after electricity is no longer being made there.
The move comes against the backdrop of what the state says are a series of broken promises by Entergy relating to Vermont Yankee.
Chief among those was a promise that it would shut Vermont Yankee down if it had not been able to obtain a new state permit by last March.MORE IN This Just InRutland City Police said Friday evening the department's phone lines were down.

text: Sen. In CO Recall Attacked For Collecting Per Diem For 'Haircuts And Golf Games' Print article Send a Tip by AWR Hawkins 23 Aug 2013 post a comment IACE Action is running an ad against Colorado state senator John Morse (D) for collecting per diem for "haircuts and golf games." Morse faced an ethics investigation for this in 2011, when it was learned that of all the legislator in Colorado he was one of only 11 who collected per diem during the entire 120 day legislative session. He was also investigated for billing the people of Colorado $99 a day for leadership pay for more than 200 days while the legislature was not meeting. Because of this, the IACE ad claims Morse was collecting per diem for "haircuts and golf games." The ethics panel that investigated Morse ultimately cleared him. But on August 22, 2013, National Review Online (NRO) pointed out that the panel was comprised of three Democrats and two Republicans, and that it basically acknowledged "that a senator's word alone is sufficient for claiming legislative per diem payments." "In short," added NRO, "[Morse] said he did legislative work on those days, and that was good enough for [the ethics panel]; no need to verify that he actually did work related to his state-office duties." The IACE ad makes clear Coloradans did not elect Morse in order to pay for haircuts and golf games. Follow AWR Hawkins on Twitter @AWRHawkins

Atlanta Hawks forward Gustavo Ayon left the team's preseason opener on Monday night against the Miami Heat in the first quarter with a right shoulder injury.
As reported by the Associated Press through NBA.com, late in the first quarter Ayon was chasing a rebound and collided with Heat guard Norris Cole . Upon colliding, Ayon twisted his arm, then grabbed his shoulder and elbow. While he headed for the Hawks' locker room, he was clutching his wrist.
Ayon's preseason appearance lasted only 4 minutes before the injury. He attempted only one shot and had one rebound in his limited time on the court.
Ayon played in 54 games during his rookie season of 2011 - 2012. He averaged 5.9 points and 4.9 rebounds in 20 minutes of action per game. Last year, he appeared in 55 games and averaged 3.7 points and 3.6 rebounds per game.

Product Description
Service Dog Card
This serice dog card is a simple tool for service dog owners to assist you when entering a business. These cards were designed to ease the burden of having to remember and relay federal guidelines which go along with owning a service dog.
On one side it says "I'm a Service Dog" and indicates that your dog is a Service Dog - an animal individually trained to perform tasks for people with disabilities. It has the toll free phone number to the U.S. Department of Justice should the business owner have any questions. On the flip side of the card is a summary of the Americans with Disabilities Act as it relates to Service Dogs. It outlines the questions businesses can ask and what they can't do.
When folded this service dog card measures 3.5" x 2", the same size as a standard business card. You'll want to keep these tucked away in your service dog's vest.
Please Note: It is fraudulent to represent your dog as a service animal if it is not.

Really Comes in Handy
Posted by Unknown on 16th Feb 2014
Most merchants are familiar with the laws regarding service dogs. Occasionally I run into someone who questions my right to have a dog in a building with me. The cards are a nice, non-confrontational way to educate people without offending them or causing a scene. It is something every service dog owner should have on hand.
Service Dog Vest

looks great, quality made.
A Great Heads Up for anyone (even law enforcement)

Believe it or not, with a vest,badges etc., there are STILL idiots who insist that the law does not apply to them. Therefore, the Service Dog cards do come in quite handy. If I am not in the mood to make a scene or find that I am talking to a walking vegetable; I will hand them the card and tell them to read it carefully. Next time I come back and am harrassed, you will be sued!
very well worded

Just what I needed to educate those who does not know the law for service animals,I'm very pleased with this product

Stop harrassment
Posted by Unknown on 14th Jan 2013
I have used these cards for years and find they are excellent "educational" tools for those people who really 'don't get it' or those who do NOT want to 'get it'. Provides credibility to the Service Dog/human handler team.

Forty-Six & 2 Lyrics - Tool
Review The Song (71)
My shadow's
Shedding skin and
I've been picking
Scabs again.
I'm down
Digging through
My old muscles
Looking for a clue.
I've been crawling on my belly
Clearing out what could've been.
I've been wallowing in my own confused
And insecure delusions
For a piece to cross me over
Or a word to guide me in.
I wanna feel the changes coming down.
I wanna know what I've been hiding in
My shadow.
Change is coming through my shadow.
My shadow's shedding skin
I've been picking
My scabs again.
I've been crawling on my belly
Clearing out what could've been.
I've been wallowing in my own chaotic
And insecure delusions.
I wanna feel the change consume me,
Feel the outside turning in.
I wanna feel the metamorphosis and
Cleansing I've endured within
My shadow
Change is coming.
Now is my time.
Listen to my muscle memory.
Contemplate what I've been clinging to.
Forty-six and two ahead of me.
I choose to live and to
Grow, take and give and to
Move, learn and love and to
Cry, kill and die and to
Be paranoid and to
Lie, hate and fear and to
Do what it takes to move through.
I choose to live and to
Lie, kill and give and to
Die, learn and love and to
Do what it takes to step through.
See my shadow changing,
Stretching up and over me.
Soften this old armor.
Hoping I can clear the way
By stepping through my shadow,
Coming out the other side.
Step into the shadow.
Forty six and two are just ahead of me.

see for yourself | Reviewer: Chris | 9/4/14
The human desire to be correct in the things that speak to us goes far beyond the interpretation of these lyrics or any lyrics or writings. This is undoubtedly a creation of the ego present in our minds. Most of these people don't get it but the real reason these songs are written the way they are is so that you can use them to help you find more of you. The name Tool says it all, a tool that is meant to be used in the hands of those who care to. They are true artists to the pinnacle sense of the word. That being said none of you are wrong for having your own individual interpretations of these lyrics. in my opinion at the risk of sounding contradictory the only ones who are wrong are the ones who say that someone else is. Don't take my word for it read it for yourself in Maynard's own words at: "toolshed.down.net/opinions" this forum has been around since 2002 and for any of you who don't know about it already, its undoubtably the best site for anything that is "Tool"
P.s. thanks for sharing
Evolution, fools. | Reviewer: Matty F | 2/4/14
This song isn't about drugs at all...
As people have already said, there are 46 chromosomes in human DNA - the song is about evolving to having an extra two chromosomes, explaining the 'shedding skin'. When he says "I", he is talking about us as an entire, and unified, race. He's talking about people clinging to being the same old repetitions of classic human behaviours, and not allowing ourselves to properly better ourselves as a race (picking scabs - stopping the 'healing' process).
My interpretation of the shadow symbolism is that we have to embrace the darker parts of ourselves in order to see the light; to be conscious of our destructive paths so we can aim for a better day. It could also mean a temporary sacrificial act to secure a long term improvement (stepping through my shadow, coming out the other side...)
Letting Go | Reviewer: purpletiger | 12/19/13
Maybe it is or maybe it isn't about coming off drugs. The point of the lyrics is that there is a future ahead of us, we just need to let go of our ego and all of the hurts and misery of the past. This I have been doing and I am now starting, at the age of 51,to do what I really want to do. Whether it will lead to something bigger, only future will tell, but at least I am achieving something for myself and then I can start helping others.
How can we alter our chromosomes and evolve into a higher being. Wouldn't it be the opposite? I don't understand this analogy.
release our true selves | Reviewer: gonzo | 12/12/13
this song sings freedom to me. elavating to a higher existance and becoming enlighted to the purpose of our life. vibrations good and bad effect us is life.mjk is a genious love all his llyrics!!!!!!!!!!
Alive | Reviewer: Kuthoomi | 11/22/13
It only discribes the natural proces that we all go true as we awaken. It may feel and look like coming out of drugs, which in fact, we are all druged living like zombies... Neurosis is common
Lol, drugs pffff | Reviewer: Scott | 11/11/13
Really, drugs? What a simplistic way to interpret these lyrics. And egotistical as well, considering that you view your world through your experiences. Good job Tom with your contributions.
chromosomes | Reviewer: Tom | 10/16/13
The song is about human DNA. Human DNA contains 44 autosomes and 2 sex chromosomes. It's about reaching a state of evolution and higher actualization as in Jung and Melchizedek's theory of having two autosomes evolve so that humans would now have 46 and 2.
He is looking forward to the full potential we have inside of us. We are currently a shadow of what we can become.
Coming off a drug addiction, you reckon? | Reviewer: Arcman | 5/1/13
So Maynard has never had a drug addiction "Buddy". This could be the interpretation some people find in themselves, but it's doubtful he would base such an emotional song on a philosophy he hasn't had to deal with himself. Usually he reserves that sort of fiction for a story, like Rosetta Stoned. You're assumption isn't impossible, but is unlikely.
Drugs? Really? | Reviewer: Tyler | 3/9/13
This is really in response to the first review I read. I can appreciate their interpretation of the song, because if it helped them get to some understanding in their life with a particular issue they may have been enduring, then that is all that matters. But most of you have it correct. The "shadow" is a discrepancy; sexual, emotional, a metaphoric monkey on your back. According to Jung, the shadow stems from the universal sub conscious and it creates ego which ultimately interferes with our destiny - our intellectual evolution. With all of these negative emotions plaguing our existence, we put up walls or "armor" depriving us from experiencing true connections. But recognizing this, we can use the past-our suffering, as a means to heal. By stepping through our "shadow", we experience the full range of human emotions and grow in our evolutionary endeavor. 46&2 is when all the cells of the body are consciously aware and work in unison as one (much like the gears and mechanisms in a machine), one sending information to the other so as a whole, they are infinite in their intelligence. So far, only a few group of peoples have achieved this higher consciousness, the aboriginals in Australia and supposedly a few remote tribes in Africa. They are one with the universe according to the anthropologist who stayed with them for an extended period of time. They revealed their sacred understandings of their place on this earth and their connections - symbiotically and direct, with everything. So if drugs are you're shadow, then you are correct in a way. All in all, tool is profound and open to interpretation. If it helps the listener with an issue they may have, that is what truly matters. The band name says it all. Tool. Use tools to fight, build, and learn.
ABOUT COMING OFF DRUGS | Reviewer: Buddy | 2/6/13
This song is obviously about coming off drugs most likely methamphetamines (ice, speed etc)
I am quite taken back about how naive most of you are to this fact you really think that this song has a complete different meaning. Are you sheep cause the first person thought this or you love tool that much you cant except they have big issues with drugs.
I dont get much in to lyrics but always wondered if the lyrics of this song were about coming off drugs from the few lyrics i could understand and reading this confirmed this.
Nearly every line of this song is obvious about coming off drugs.
Taking any one verse of this song screams coming off drugs and put them all together. The scabs scratching pain feelings the morphing is back to a normal person feeling again feelings good and bad. The shadow is a feeling that alot of drug addicts get and it is what they call it not doctors its a kind of skitzo paranoia.
I think the 46 and 2 ahead of me is a way of saying life is ahead of me this is guess though.
Show any ex drug user, their family that have seen what they go through (me) people who work with them (doctors etc) these lyrics and they will tell you without a doubt it is what it is about.
No PhD, but genius IQ. | Reviewer: Kathy H | 1/16/13
So many angry words. Everyone saying their interpretation is right and everyone else is wrong.
What is wrong with you folks? Can't you just enjoy the music and not debate the meaning? Like my mom used to tell me, "Opinions are like assholes; everyone has one and they usually stink." No kidding. She really did tell me that.
So everyone, get off your respective high-horses. You are liable to fall and hurt yourself. Just enjoy Tool and MJK. And quit bitching.
the beautiful thing about Tool... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/5/12
Maynard is a lyrical genius. He allows us all to interpret their songs however we want. So therefore nobody is wrong about anything they have mentioned .
Honestly only Tool knows the real meaning behind these lyrics.
abc | Reviewer: chris | 11/10/12
I think he meant that apes are evolving and they are "ahead of us". Basically he is saying that pretty soon that movie....Planet Of The Apes....like the latest version? Yeah, It's gonna happen soon people. He is trying to send a message that we all need to get and be prepared, and remember, we fight best in the shadows. The change is coming people, It is time to prepare!
favorite song | Reviewer: Cheech's dad | 10/28/12
After reading these reviews, I have come to the conclusion that I am an uneducated person. But to my retarted ass, it seems that regardless of who the theory of the shadow comes from (Jung, or mezchizedek or whoever) call it christ consciousness, collective unconcious, collective conscious, parallel universe, sublimanal realm, spiritual realm, you are all talking about the same thing. Delving into our subconcious, transsubstantiating (should I not use that word, oops), becoming our true, whole selves, achieving enlightenment.
P.S. To all you self righteous (insert derogatory term here) telling people to go to college and what to read, I am mentally retarted, thus a moron (in a lot of ways) So I wont be spending $100,000 for a piece of paper that I could achieve the equivalent for $1.00 in late fees at the library (yes thats from Good Will Hunting). Also, you can read all of the books in the world but it doesnt compare to actually experiencing it!! Check your ego people, I know I know, I need to take my own advice, easier said than done since we are barely conscious and aware of it, but we have to try. Dont let those decietful, manipulative, cowardly, self righteous, asshole aliens get the best of us. COME TOGETHER, RISE UP, EMBRACE LOVE AND JOY!!! instead of fear and hate and depression and anxiety. They are manipulating us subliminally. Did I lose you with that alien comment? why is it so acceptable to believe that there is an all knowing all powerful omnipotent god and creator of everything, but someone whos aware of beings, or species far more intelligent(but not superior) from all over the universe, is called insane. Think about it people, they are real, and Maynard knows it. He's trying to tell you without actually saying the words.
PSS Sorry, I came hear to gain some insight into a song, and maybe give a little input based on personnal experience, and I did that, but I didnt mean to go off on a self righteous rant, dont let them turn you into an ego maniac like me, for your own sake.
God? | Reviewer: Anon and on | 10/17/12
"This sort of behavior is left to the psychotic, dogmatic, fundamentalist believers you see on your TV everyday letting off bombs and killing people in the name of God. Beliefs are dangerous. Beliefs allow the mind to stop functioning. A non-functioning mind is clinically dead. Believe in nothing." -MJK
He is definitely anti-religion, if he isn't anti-god. If any of his lyrics involve a god, they aren't to support the viewpoint, that's for sure.

DEEP CREEK, Fla.- Charlotte County Sheriff's detectives arrested a man for stealing a purse out of an elderly Arcadia couple's car at the Murphy's gas station in the Deep Creek area on Nov. 14. Tony Curtis "Pops" Goforth, 50, of 3525 Beacon Drive, was charged with Burglary to a Conveyance, Grand Theft, and Fraudulent use of a Credit Card.
Deputies responded to the call at 9:21 a.m. where the couple had stopped to pump gas. The 80-year-old woman left her purse on the floor of the car. When they came back to the car, she noticed her purse was stolen. Her husband, 76, told deputies he saw a man acting suspiciously near their car and interacting with a woman in a gold colored Buick SUV. He gave deputies a description of the man and even the license tag number. The couple later notified CCSO that one of her credit cards had been used at the Shell gas station nearby at 2146 Kings Highway about 20 minutes after her purse was stolen. Surveillance video confirmed the same Buick SUV at the Shell station.
Detectives reviewed Murphy's surveillance video and observed the man matching the description given by the couple. It also showed the woman in the Buick SUV enter the store to buy cigarettes. Detectives ran the tag number to the owners who live in the 1500 block of Abel Street in Port Charlotte. Detectives located the gold Buick SUV and made contact with the owners. They said they picked up the man prior to going to Murphy's who wanted a ride to the hospital; they did not know his name but said he usually hangs out at the Harold Avenue Recreation Center and watches people play basketball. Detectives went to the center and showed a surveillance photos to employees who identified Goforth, also known as "Pops." The employee said Goforth's son plays on a basketball team.
Detectives went to Goforth's home and arrested him for the purse theft and related charges. Goforth denied being at Murphy's or using the credit card at the Shell station, even after being told of the surveillance and witnesses statements. He was transported to the Charlotte County Jail where he remains onno bond due to his extensive criminal history and being a convicted felon.
Sheriff Bill Cameron has advised motorists many times in the past to always lock your car, especially at gas stations. Thieves target motorists who leave their vehicle unlocked, even for a few minutes, to go into the convenience store to pay for gas or purchase items.

Am I making a horrible mistake? Noise at Zahav
I have a 7:15 reservation at Zahav on Sunday for our mother's birthday. While I won't reveal her age, I am her baby at 49! Can anyone comment on the noise particularly on a Sunday night? Thanks
Last time I was there on a Sunday they were completely full. It's not deafening, but I wouldn't take my family members that are that age there.
We frequent Zahav and have only found the noise level objectionable infrequently. Stating the obvious; much will depend upon where one is seated and next to whom. We have found the tables by the windows facing the Ritz to be relatively buffered from the noise. I am not sure how big a party could be seated there probably only 6-8. They do have a back room thru the curtains, or is it arches, which could suit your party. Great choice for interesting food and drinks and good service. Best wishes and good luck with the noise level. I am sure management will do all they can for you if you advise them of the issue.
re: Bacchus101
I concur with Bacchus. Seating on the side is much quieter.
ask about being seated in the back room- agree with bacchus that you should talk to mgmt- on a sunday night especially, they will do all that they can
Thank you all for your suggestions! I was going to call them and request a quiet area and then this happened:
When making the reservation I had mentioned it was my mother's (undisclosed year) birthday - it is kind of how I managed to get a late reservation in the first place. Last night, a different person from the one who made the reservation called me and said "you have a reservation and it is a ## birthday?" I said yes, and he said "may I offer you a table in a quieter area of our restaurant?" I was thrilled! Of course we still need to see how it is executed, but they get massive points in my book for offering without being asked! Will report back after our dinner. Mom is triled - Zahav was her choice!
re: Bigley9
That;'s fantastic Bigley that they would do that for a 29 year old lady!
re: Bigley9
Either that or they read Chowhound too. (No...I'm not cynical.)
re: Philly Ray
I actually considered that - but if that"s the case, more power to them! We were a last minute (week) reservation they were squeezing in, no need to cater to us. (don't take my quiet table away if you read this! ; )
re: Bigley9
A very considerate and classy call on their part. Chowhounds readers or not they took positive action to improve a customers dining experience. Good show Zahav!
re: Bacchus101
I wonder if I can pre-order the Mesibah for later in the month on Chowhound? It would save me a call...
It would be appreciated if you could post an overview of your experience and specifically how your mother enjoyed her birthday dinner. Thanks.
Reporting back! The chowspouse and I arrived at 7:05 for a 7:15 reservation and were taken to a table between the booths and the open kitchen seating. While it did not seem noisy at the time I worried that as the restaurant filled it would be. We mentioned to the young woman seating us that we had been offered a quiet table and she explained that there was a party in the side room that hadnt left as of yet, but should be and that we could move at that time if we'd like. Mom and my brother and his wife arrived at 7:15, placed their drink orders and we were then graciously (and I mean graciously!) moved to the now vacated side room to a table on the side with a banquette. It was a delightful space and there was absolutely no problem with noise for the entire evening even as the room filled. Eilon Gigi, I presume the manager, stopped by the table to see if we were comfortable and to wish Mom a happy birthday. We had the Tayim which was great for five. They allowed us to get both hummus-tehina and the Turkish hummus which were both excellent (and that bread!) The Salatim was the perfect amount for sharing - those carrots are wonderful, as was the fennel salad and the beets. We also really liked the spices that are presented for the table. They made interesting additions to many things. For Mezze I ordered the cauliflower (have to get it every time!) and the kibbe naya, which was perfectly seasoned for my taste. Mom got the sable and the duck hearts both of which she enjoyed. I liked the duck hearts but I'm not sure I'd order them again because they weren"t over the top for me. My S-I-L ordered the persimmon salad which she swooned over. I am forgetting many dishes here but thats because we really had a great time eating and talking and sharing, not because the food was less than memorable! Strangely, for Al Ha'esh we all ordered either the duck or branzino. Not sure how that happened - we usually plan better than that - but both were very good and Mom took one of the branzino home for a future dinner because we were all full. Well, except for the dessert part. I am not a dessert eater but the labaneh ice cream was refreshing and a great ending. I should mention that the wines were also great we had an Israeli Pinot Noir and an Austrian Reisling that were both wonderful with different parts of the meal and our waiter was very knowledgeable about the wine list as a whole and steered us well (my bother is very knowledgeable about wines and the conversation in choosing the wine was fun). I am glad we chose Zahav - the food is different than what Mom and the family are use to (but they are all foodies), sharing the small plates added to the social atmosphere and the service could not have been more accomodating - down to the quiet birthday serenade Eilon sang to Mom.
re: Bigley9
Thanks very much for reporting back and glad it went so well! Zahav is on must go-to list in Philly.
re: Bigley9
Eilon is awesome! Have had a few meals that were put over the top because of him.
re: barryg
re: Bigley9
Thanks for the review. Pleased it all worked so nicely for your party for mom.
re: Bigley9
It sounds like you all had a lovely time. Zahav is probably one of the most eager-to-please restaurants I have ever seen. The food is great but the service really puts it over the top.
