Allow me to introduce you to Secret Lover # 1:
Okay - posting is going to be light for the next 2 weeks as I am seriously studying my ace off. Getting out of the 2L vortex couldn't be any more dreadful. Since I am on a partial hiatus, here is my promise:
I promise to send you to a new, fun, and exciting website each day. I recognize that this is a risk - it's like introducing your new boyfriend to your foreign supermodel friend. What if he leaves me and stays with her? I like you all, dear readers. I like you all so much that I consider you my new boyfriends (and I guess, girlfriends). In the end, I hope you'll keep me. But for the next two weeks - you have license to cheat.
Then in two weeks, when you have had enough of my foreign supermodel friends, you'll realize - I might be suspiciously crazy and just a little bit fat, but I do speak decent English and don't make you eat weird things like Swedish Stromming (Baltic Herring) or Brazilian Rabada (Oxtail in Celery Sauce)- and for that, you'll luff me.
I hope that at the end of this separation, you'll tell me which SECRET LOVER was your favorite. Heck, I might even create a poll or something equally dorky just to find out. Not sure about this yet.
Okay - so for the first Secret Lover, I have to warn you. She is quite addictive. And a little demanding (you have to create an account - but its free). But she puts out. A LOT. I almost guarantee that your little tryst with her could last for days (almost guarantee b/c I'm in law school and unsure of the breadth of guarantee law. So, I'll err on the safe side).
Daisy and I spent countless hours (okay mostly me by myself) uploading photos of ourselves to this thing. I saw it on "the View," and while I don't think it is that accurate, it is fun when the innernet tells me I look like Mischa Barton and Bouncy (Stu's name for Beyonce). Okay - truth be told, it also said I look like Oprah and Sally Field, but that will be our little secret. What is also HILARIOUS is when you upload pictures of your friends/enemies. Much giggling, guffawing, and belly-laughing will follow. Again, I almost guarantee it. Unless you are much cooler than I. Which is quite possible. But I've heard that even the coolest of people enjoy this little website.
Enjoy - and I hope the inneret says you all look like Elizabeth Hurley and Paul Walker. I know it will - because you are all GORGEOUS and SPARKLY BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!

Wow. I don't usually post about heavy things but ... wow. This brave little girl endured so much. For a very poignant photo essay, go here.
What fascinates me is that during all of this horrific abuse she was driven to survive - to live. I think that if I would have been subjected to such terrible treatment, I would have curled up and died.
She has survived to tell her story. Let's hope her story awakens the world to such human cruelty.

Hakuna Matata and other related issues...
Today I had a bit of a spat with one of my friends. I have an account on Facebook, and in my profile there is a portion for my favorite quotes. 2 of the quotes were things that I had said during Spring Break that signified funny drunken memories that I shared with my friends. After receiving a scathing comment from one of my friends about the fact that I had posted two of my own comments on my wall and that I must be so impressed with myself, I had a bit of a freak out. I completely eradicated any sign of a remotely arrogant comment, and then proceeded to send my friend a message letting my friend know how much my feelings were hurt. Needless to say, I was upset. I probably wasted about an hour of my life stressing out about such a silly little thing. Later I learned that my friend was just kidding and giving me a hard time. Gosh, I am such a drama queen.
We smoothed things over, and now sitting in my apartment, I realized what a little weanie I am. I HATE IT when people are mad/displeased/ unamused with me. Tonight, my friend and I hung out (all's good -so why not share a happy margarita?). We were rehashing our experiences of the spat from both sides, and at one point my friend said, "toughen up - you have to have a thicker skin if you are going to be a lawyer." At first I was a little mad - why do I have to toughen up? Why can't my friend and the world be less mean? If I toughen up, does that mean by default that I am accepting a world that becomes more crass and ill-mannered every day? I don't know - and these really aren't questions I want to answer after drinking 10 margaritas.
So instead of thinking further about such troubling things, here is a little ditty for you! After thinking about getting a "thick skin," my thoughts drifted to Pumbaa of the Lion King. The song goes:
"That's right. Take Pumbaa here--
Why, when he was a young warthog...
When I was a young wart hog
Very nice
He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal
He could clear the savannah after every meal
I'm a sensitive soul though I seem thick-skinned
And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind
And oh, the shame He was ashamed
Thought of changin' my name What's in a name?
And I got downhearted How did ya feel?
Everytime that I...
Hey! Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!
Oh. Sorry
Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
Okay so, I know you all loved reading the lyrics to one of my favorite songs,
but seriously, Pumbaa had a serious problem. I mean, farting in public is just
unacceptable. But he just did it anyway - with no worry of the respective
consequences. And you know? He got made fun of, but he still gave in to nature's urges.
So, what I'm saying is that I recognize that I need to be a bit more confident. A
bit more thick skinned. A little more worry free and a bit less concerned about what
others think of me (but don't worry, if you are ever "downwind" from me, I promise
I'll hold back!).

Here with a little help for my friends...
As many of you may know - Mother's Day is just around the corner (May 14th). Many of us will be finishing our exams right around that time, and I dare say, not giving Mother's Day much thought.
So, my friends, I am going to help you (and myself - b/c I have nooo idea what to get my mom or even harder, my mother-in-law). Depending on your budget, there are a lot of really nice things to give your mom that you can buy right from the dang innernet. You don't even have to go to the store. Now if only I could avoid paying with my own money....
$5 and under:
For those of you who are really lazy, here is a website that will actually mail the card to your mother (once you personalize it of course) for the cost of the card plus postage.
Okay, ya'll - stop right there. If you think a card is all you need to send her, then this card is for you. (But really - at least get her some flowers or something). Not really sure what "oppop" is, but I think you can figure it out :).
For the hip mom, you can get a toe ring for only $5! Or if your mom is a little more traditional (like mine), get her some of these nice notecards. Sooo cute!
For moms who like their spaces to smell good, this website has all kinds of soothing, spa-ish type stuff which looks wonderful and perfect for any place.
Okay, so enough with the $5 and under. Let's move on.
$10 and under:
Surely you can afford to spend $10 on old mom - that's only like two cocktails! Ungrateful children! So - I think these are just so darling - your mom can put all her sweet little keepsakes in here! I know that the bigger ones are technically more than $10, but just forget about that. Okay?
OR... you could get this for her (and possibly yourself - even boys need stuff for their home). Even on sale - just for you! Another wonderful sale item - is - this! So clean and pure. Just like your mother's love for you! If you are like me, and hate just giving one thing, you could also bake some cookies (don't worry - Break and Bake works wonders!) and tie a pretty grosgrain ribbon around it!
Just in case your mom likes Lucky Charms, is Irish, loves the story about Noah, and/ or is a member of the gay and lesbian community, this a very cute site for her! All kinds of cute rainbow rings. Makes me think about a pot of gold and matching animals!
Because I love vases and moms adore flowers, I suggest this gift also. Its very simple and would probably go with almost any decor. And its only $9.99!
Think back to when you were little, snuggling up to mom in church or somewhere else where you had to be quiet and sit with your parents. Remember how nice and soft mom smelled? Kind of like powder, laundry detergent, apple pie, and white linen all rolled up into one joyous sniff. This gift can help your mom keep her wonderful smells. What fashionable houndstooth as well!
$15 and under:
If you really want to personalize a gift for your lovely mom, these are a perfect choice. Aren't they sooo lovely? I particularly love the mermaid set. They make me want to be a mom, just so someone will buy these for me! (hint to all my friends for my upcoming birthday, hint, hint, hint).
For the mom who wants to do everything, but stretches herself thin so she doesn't have to time to do anything particularly well - this is the perfect gift for her! So fun! So easy. So fun to say! Say it! Say it! S-c-a-t-t-e-r-G-a-r-d-e-n-s! Yahoo! Her friends will see her effortless garden and be so envious.
Also, these are quite hilarious. Wonderfully weird. Enough said.
A little more expensive, but totally worth it:
Okay, so I was trying to keep this list relatively cheap, but there were just a few things that I had to show you. These are things I am definitely contemplating giving, but don't tell my husband. We'll just tell him what I saved, and that will be that.
First, I am an apron person. They are practical and sexy in a very 1950's way. One time, I baked dinner for Stu in nothing but an apron and high heels and he loved it! Now your mom could do the same for her husband/wife/significant other. EWWWWW!
Just for saying that, I should be banished from the blogging community, but before you banish me, look at this cute apron. And this one. Both very darling. One quite sassy, the other quite traditional. It's like Edie Britt and Bree Van De Kamp in apron form.
Okay - see what I mean? You should forgive me. What? You do? Then what are we waiting for? Let's move on to the next fabulous gift!
Moms like nice bowls to put stuff in. Bowls are very practical - you can use them to hold washcloths in the bathroom, decorative balls on the coffee table, fill it with water and floating flowers for the dining room table, or of course - put food in them. This gift is like the Mary Poppins gift - practically perfect in every way.
If you think that you are a precious gem and you have a mother, this is the perfect gift to give. Get it? "Mother of Pearl?" *sigh* Okay - I know that was a corny joke, but I'm trying here - okay?
Let's say your mom likes to drink wine? "My mom likes to drink wine." Wasn't that fun to say together? Well, if your mom likes/loves/is obsessed with drinking wine, then this is the book for her. She won't even have to watch Sideways, yet she will be of the utmost educated group regarding wine.
Okay, that is all for now. I'm sure I have sufficiently bored the boys reading this and possibly the girls too. But remember, Mother's Day is right around the corner! Won't Mom be pleased when her dear little Timmy or Jane comes home with pretty wrapped gifts in tow? You bet she will. And it never hurts to have Mom on your side, say -- when you are out of money, need someone to take care of you when you are sick, or have 87 1/2 loads of laundry.
So, enjoy the tips, and I'll try to write more later! Oh, and speaking of moms (this is for Dothard) Your mom is the town ranch dressing - everyone's had a dip! Ohhhh!

I'm BAAAAACK!
Hi! Did you miss me? Really? Me too! It has been so lonely without all of you asking me about my towels and my nanny and saying "bless you" so quickly when I sneeze 17 times, in a row, very loudly, in the middle of class.
Good news - I found some allergy medicine that makes me feel better. It is generic, OTC stuff and I don't even have to sign my life away to purchase it (thanks to the meth boom) because it is pseudophedrine free (don't know if that is spelled right, but I am just too lazy to google it right now).
Okay - so do you really want to know how disgusting I am? Do you? Because if I tell you this, you have to promise me not to make fun of me in person. Because I am about to divulge to you a very deep, dark, embarrassing secret. If you tell, I will deny. I would deny so much that Jack Bauer would be proud. In fact, I would deny so well that he would take my classes on denial. Kicking butts and taking names. That's me people - if you tell my secret.
Promise? You will? Ah- hah! I see you back there- the red-headed one with his fingers crossed! No crosses count...OKAY HERE IT GOES- - - - - -
I ate candy out of my trash can. EEEEk. Don't tell anyone!!!!
Yeeeees, I know it is disgusting and ridiculous and shows how I obviously missed my calling as a homeless person. But let me at least explain.
I come from a very "healthy" family. And by healthy, I mean that food is that last thing we ever refrain from enjoying. All of the women in my family are extremely bootylicious (bless you Beyonce for making curves sexy again). We all got da booty (and the thighs) (and the fleshy arms) (and even the soft tummies). If the Renaissance look was in style, we would be supermodels.
Sooo - I have always been very careful about watching my weight and what I put in my mouth. When I got married, I gained some significant weight, and the last 2 years have been a constant battle of food v. image.
Okay - fast forward from last spring to this spring. Daisy and I started Weight Watchers and we were doing fairly well. Then we got back from Spring Break, discovered we were flat broke, and stopped paying to go weigh in. Which brings me to the here and now.
Yikes - I need to stay on the subject - candy in the trash.
Right. Okay, so I did WW with Daisy up until Spring Break. I lost about 8 lbs and was feeling pretty cute. Then I got back from Spring Break and have decided that evidently, since I am so skinny and everything, I can eat everything in sight and it won't affect little ole' me! Well, I have news for you - it has. Already. I feel chubby and disgusting. So, the last week, I have starting counting Points (the WW way to track your food) and steering clear of sweets and Cheetos. Sad.
Well, Tuesday night, Daisy and I fell off the bandwagon. We went on a candy frenzy and between the 2 of us, we bought Milk Duds, Raisinettes, Reese's Pieces, movie theater popcorn, sea salt and olive oil potato chips, and CANDY CORN! And then we proceeded to eat it. All.
Candy corn is our ultimate weakness, and I am truly convinced that it solves several life and world problems. Misguided boyfriends, disloyal friends, ill relatives - all problems go away when candy corn enters the room. If only terrorists were appeased by the little triangular pieces of orange tinted happiness. Sigh.
Okay, so Daisy had bought me a bag of candy corn because she loves me. And I loved her until I got to my apartment and realized it was just me and the candy corn. Face to face. A colossal dual. This is how it went down:
Boo and Candy Corn - A One Act Play
Scene I - The Meeting
(Italian duel music in background - Erikaboo and Candy Corn circle one another, eyeing each other very suspiciously)
Boo: Candy Corn, I see it is just you and me.
Candy Corn (CC speaks in an Italian accent): Yezzz, zeet eez juast youz and mez.
Boo: What do you think we should do?
CC: I zink you should eat mez.
Boo: I don't think I should - you are such a temptation and you make me so unhappy when I step on the scale and see the weight I have gained.
Scene II - The Tempting
CC: Do not be zilly, my zweet dahling. Youz luff me. I make youz happy. Youz are alwayz sooo delighted when you zee my lufly orange package.
Boo: You do have a point there.
CC: Besides, do youz not zee on my package - RRRight here? I ziz "fat free." Zeee, my dahling - not a problem for you anymore!
Boo: Well, fat is a main concern, but what about calories?
CC: Calories. Wh-at are zoze? I zee no calories on me. Are zey a type of leetle bug?
Boo: Sigh. No - they are part of what gives us energy and if consumed in excess, make us fat.
CC: Ah, bella, zee answer ziz zimple. Do not eat me in excezz. Then you have no problem.
Scene III - Will She Give In?
(Boo picks up Candy Corn and lovingly cradles him in her arms, considering...)
Boo: (thoughtfully) You are the Casanova of Candy! You are the Sweetest of Sweets. You do taste decadently wonderful. And you don't have that many calories. I could always just run more tomorrow.
CC: Zat is right, my dahling. I am the Cazanova of Candy. One night with me ziz worth a year'z worth of extra running.
Boo: (envisioning self running an extra year for one night of passion) No! I can't. Because I can't resist you, I must rid myself of you! We cannot be together anymore! Good bye my Casanova! Good bye my love!
(Boo dramatically sweeps the bag off the counter, grabs the scissors, cuts the bag, and dumps the candy into the full trashcan, right on top of a bunch of discarded magazines.)
Zeee End.
Okay, so that is how it happened. That is how my candy got in the trash. Technically, it wasn't really in the trash. It was on the top of the trash - mostly on top of some discarded magazines. So, there Mr. Casanova sat all night and day. Taunting me. Luring me near him. "Hellooo, me bella. Come and enjoyz mez. I am delish-iouz."
I should have taken the magazines and dumped the candy into the dark depths of the trash can, but for some reason I just couldn't bring myself to do it.
Yesterday (Wednesday), Casanova was still there. And I didn't touch it all day. In fact, it didn't even cross my mind that he was still present. Until about 12:30 at night.
I was working on an assignment (last minute as usual) and was struck with an insatiable craving for sugar. First I raided my pantry, but because I am such a good dieter, it was all gone. I considered eating a big spoonful of brown sugar, but thought that would be just disgusting. In my third swoop in the kitchen, it hit me ---- the candy corn. Sitting there, looking as innocent as can be.
I remember thinking to myself "Really, self? Are you really going to consider eating disposed candy?" and then self decided "Yep!"
It was just a little handful carefully picked off of the top. It was about as unhygenic as eating candy out of a candy bowl. Regardless of how I justify it, the fact still remains that I still ate candy out of the trash. And I gave in to the Casanova of Candy.
The moral of the story: If you don't want me to eat your candy corn, putting it in the trash is not the solution. Possibly flushing it down the toilet might work, but I wouldn't bet on it. Possibly you could lock it in a safe. Maybe throwing it in a nest of spiders or roaches. Yes, I think that could work. I hate spiders and roaches far more than I love candy corn. And that is some strong hate, my friends.
Okay - bye for now. But remember - you promised. Not a soul. Shhh!

Women are from Mars, Men are from Venus, I prefer the Milky Way (candy bar).
Sorry it has taken me so long to write, but I have a lot of really good excuses. First, my computer is rebelling against me. It always does this right around exams. I freak out a few times, it laughs at me, messes with my mind and emotions, and then decides that I am an okay computer owner, and continues working.
Second, I don't have anything super interesting going on. Much about my life is pretty much the same. The towels are still missing. I am still in law school. My chili is still an honorable mention prizewinner. I am still married. See? The same. Oh - here is a picture of my adorable chili team:
What did I do this weekend? I spent the weekend in McMinnville (I was supposed to go to the funeral for Nanny, but due to the weather on Friday, we couldn't fly out like we had planned). McMinnville is wonderful and charming, but I don't do much when I am there. I mostly eat lots of chocolate, drink wine, and watch cable TV.
About the only interesting thing I did this weekend was go look at couches. Stu and I have been talking a lot about buying a new couch. We currently have a mean futon which menacingly numbs your butt if you spend more than 30 minutes sitting on it. It also has a knack for carving deep ruts in our wall, which we will either have to fix when we move or take a reduction in our deposit. Futon is bad. Futon hates.
Now I know shopping for furniture is something most young married couples do. It's like a rite of passage - right up there with graduation and tying the knot. I imagine for most couples, the idea of shopping for a couch starts like this:
Wife: "Honey, I think its time for a new couch. The one we have now is a horrid mint green paisley. Half of the springs are popping out, and it smells like the Salvation Army and your grandmother."
Husband: (grunts) (says nothing)
Wife: "Well, what do you think?"
Husband: (flipping TV channels) "Whatever you say, dear."
Wife: "Are you even listening to me? You never listen to me - always just watching the TV in your chair. You don't even care about our couch, because, because, you don't even sit on it! In fact, you don't even care about me!"
Husband: (still watching TV) "I sit on the couch."
Wife: "What about me? Do you still care about me?"
Husband: (wishing he was in the mud puddle with the hot Budweiser twins on TV) "Yes."
Wife: "So, what you're saying is--I can go get a couch?"
Husband: (grunts, picks up remote) "Whatever you say, dear."
Wife: (sighs, picks up purse, marches out to go buy couch)
Now this is what I imagine occurs with most couples. The wife is the one who recognizes the need for a new couch, picks out the new couch, possibly checks with husband on the price of the couch, and then buys the new couch. Maybe its not the most lovey dovey way to do something but it works, right?
Unfortunately (for Stu's sake), this scenario doesn't work for me. I want Stu to be involved. I have turned into the couch Nazi. The past two Saturdays I have hauled Stu out of a perfectly good Saturday snooze, yanked him into the car, and made him drive from one couch store to the next, while I inspect every possible couch, agonize over the fabric and strategically avoid the annoying salespeople. Occasionally, I ask his opinion. When I am at home, I am constantly on the computer, searching for the perfect sofa - the perfect color - the perfect price. It's driving him CRAZY.
This wouldn't be so hard on Stu if he didn't care. If he didn't care about what kind of couch we got, he could probably mimic the husband in the vignette above, minus the Budweiser Twins. But surprisingly, he actually does. I have learned that my manly, airplane-obsessed, beer drinking, often scruffy husband cares about certain home decor. A lot. In fact, when we first registered for wedding gifts, I had picked out a lot of stuff on my own. But once he saw the china, I had to change the pattern because he didn't like it. When we registered for the cooking stuff, I followed him around because he was so particular about the knives, the pans, the food processor. Now, I'm not complaining. I want him to be involved in things - its just funny that he does.
So anyway, I think we have narrowed it down to just a few couches. I will share them with you here. I really like this one and also this one. I love this one, but I'm not quite sure about the arms. The store that all of these came from is SO cute. One day when we have lots of money to buy whatever we want, I will also buy this and this. And this. I also secretly love this, but where would I put it?
But not right now. Now, I must focus on COUCH. We also went here. I didn't think they would have anything cute, but they had a lot of cute. Cindy Crawford can design some pretty furniture. I kindof like this one, but I really like this!
Later, I was surfing the web (again -- couch Nazi) and I found this. And it comes in this fabric as well! Wouldn't the second one look great with some red throw pillows (or maybe these) and old black and white photos on the wall?
Also, this place has furniture! Who knew? Stu and I actually registered at this place when we got engaged, and I love everything they have. I could spend hours here (and millions of dollars). So, which ones do I like here? This one and this one. I'm not crazy about either one in particular, because I haven't seen them in person. But they look nice online!
Finally, here is my favorite. I love it. Stu likes it too. And if I can save enough money (I'm going to pool all of my birthday money), I'm buying it! This isn't the greatest picture, but let me assure you - it is comfortable and beautiful!
Okay - so that is all for now! Let me know which one you like the best!

2 THINGS THAT ARE BAD (aka thoughts on my lunch):
1. Tipping a bag of pretzels into your mouth (to get all the crumbles)
2. Eating smooshy apples.
Why? Doing the 1st thing will unhealthfully increase your sodium content for the day, and the second is just unsatisfying.
One more note on food - My friends and I are entering a Chili Cook-off tonight. We have dubbed ourselves the "Spice Girls." (I know - verrrrry clever). Last night, Daisy and I made the chili wonderfulness (also called Spice Girl Surprise). We thought it tasted good, and hopefully the judges will also!
I'll let you know how it went, because I am certain that everyone reading this is dying to know.

~A Tribute To A Great Lady~
I received a call this morning from my daddy with some sad news - my great grandmother, Nanny, passed away early this morning.
Her passing was not a surprise. She was 98 years old and had been struggling with dementia and various other health issues for a long time.
So, we aren't grieving in the way that a family would grieve a sudden, unexpected death. Rather, we are experiencing a joyous grief - if that is possible. While we are sad that she is gone, we are happy that her spirit has gone on to heaven - where her mental and physical infirmities will no longer exist.
My Nanny was a wonderful lady. As a little girl, I ADORED her. Sometimes, I felt closer to her than I did to her daughter, my grandmother. She went out of her way to make me feel special when I was little, and as we both got older, I recognized that she possessed a lot of characteristics I hoped to have one day.
First, Nanny always looked perfect - her nails, her hair, her clothes. I never saw her in an outfit that wasn't completely lovely, fashionable, and appropriate. She taught me the importance of accessorizing and showed me that a well-made suit and good skincare can take years off of a woman.
She exuded internal beauty, as well. Nanny had a way of making people she was talking to feel that their presence alone made her day. She would welcome anyone into her home - happily attending to any need - whether someone needed a friend, a meal, or just a little time away from the rest of the world.
She was also a very devout Christian and wasn't afraid to stand up for her faith. When she and my great grandfather, Big Daddy, first met, they were (as she liked to describe herself) "card-playing heathens." In fact, before she and Big Daddy "found the Lord" they were building a house, including one room in the blueprints just for gambling. Once they became Christians, they scrapped the plans for that room and instead focused all their energies on learning the Bible and later, serving as the preachers at their church. That's right - she was a preacher - a very uncommon role for a lady of her time, but not too surprising for a lady like Nanny.
I will always treasure my memory of her gorgeous home. She and Big Daddy collected some really beautiful antiques, and as a small girl, I remember walking through her home marveling at all of the precious things - lovely dancing porcelain dolls, an ivory Asian screen with intricate carvings, an incredible "Player" piano which played pieces of music by "reading" sheets of paper with holes punched out. Everything was always beautifully arranged and clean - displayed in a way to bring anyone in the room pleasure and comfort.
The more that I think about it - Nanny kept her house like she lived her life...Beautiful and clean. Everything she did - crafting a sermon, dressing for the day, decorating her home, cooking a meal - she tried to do as perfectly as possible. She sought to live a sinless and clean life, always trying to make her actions pleasing to God, and always trying to introduce others to Him.
As I sit and think about all of the good that my Nanny did, I am honored to know that I am a part of her legacy. I hope that I have inherited her strong and proactive spirit. I hope that when I am convicted about something, I will not hesitate to stand up for what I believe in - even if it isn't socially acceptable. I also hope that I can be half the hostess she was, and...well to look as good as she did, despite her age.

Title: Awesome wands.
Date: Sep 16, 2010
These wands are remarkably durable and economical! My girls, ages 5 and 3, have not been very gentle to them...and the wands have withstood their abuse. They're great for dress up or Halloween!!

Hunter's Gonzoville GonzoFest 2014 Special Guest Margaret A. Harrell's new book is out!!! here are my comments bout her just released 3rd volume:
"Margaret A. Harrell's Keep This Quiet! III is the real-life alchemical journey of her poet (co-creator with the creative forces of the universe) soul in which she intentionally determinedly makes the journey of initiation, juxtaposing apparently irreconcilable differences into a synthesis, a union of being. And she takes Hunter S. Thompson, Milton Klonsky, Jan Mensaert, Wolfgang Pauli, Carl Jung, and many others with her as she discovers and shares, with us, her own tao her way her I ching her Book of Changrs. Thank you, Margaret, for sharing your transformative journey When one of us is lifted up we are all lifted up.Thank You for the lift!!!!"—Ron Whitehead, outlaw poet author of Never Give Up
Keep This Quiet! volumes are on the shelves at Quail Ridge Books & Music in Raleigh. Also, in The Joyful Jewel – Pittsboro, NC
Buy on Amazon, Kindle or Barnes & Noble
by Eric Jacobs
Following on from the whirlwind that was volume one, Margaret Harrell returns with more adventures involving three particular men in her life, Milton Klonsky, Jan Mensaert and Hunter S. Thompson. She was a top editor in her time – she worked on Thompson's Hell's Angels – and this provided the door through which she stepped into the lives of this trio. Or should that be the other way around? . . . It is chaotic, shambolic, impulsive, complete and utter madness at times here. Klonsky is the steadiest, a kind of mentor-father figure to Harrell. Mensaert is mercurial, frustrating and often suicidal and then she marries him. Thompson, perhaps the one writer with the biggest profile in American letters, is, well, Hunter S. Thompson as only he was. Mad as a box of mad things, living in the moment, furiously living and she is drawn to his flame. A passionately written memoir that doesn't sit around being fit and proper and straight laced. . . . As a key to the lives of these three writers it is idiosyncratic and in an age where blandness is the norm it is a pleasure to go on her journey and find out a little about what makes these men tick and what drove her to them.
December 4, 2012
Margaret A. Harrell has done it again. In her brutally compassionately explicitly honest second autobiography, KEEP THIS QUIET TOO! More Adventures with Hunter S. Thompson, Milton Klonsky, Jan Mensaert, Harrell manages to repeatedly pull the rug out from underneath the reader. She travels from North Carolina to New York City to Morocco to Belgium to India to Switzerland to Owl Farm and many other places, . . . in search of herself. From depth psychology to dream analysis to hangoutologies to ecstatic love making to out of body astral travels to spirit guides, adventures and misadventures, she guides herself and is guided ever homeward, to her own heart and soul. Margaret A. Harrell's new, second volume, like volume one, is a masterpiece. I thank her for sharing openly, honestly, so many intimate details of her journey." Outlaw poet Ron Whitehead. "I have long admired Ron Whitehead. He is crazy as nine loons, and his poetry is a dazzling mix of folk wisdom and pure mathematics," Hunter S. Thompson
Support the annual Gonzo Fest in Louisville, where Margaret presented in 2014.
About Volume One
This book is filled with beautiful, honest, agonized letters Hunter Thompson wrote me while we worked together in the final stages of the publication of Hell's Angels. As part of the many wishes he left behind, he personally left me permission to use them. Or at least gave me a big high-five from a distance. Left word that I was one of the good ones.
What Critics Are Saying:
Check out the Reviews and Orders page of this site.
Of special note: "A feast for the Gonzo soul" – Marty Flynn
This book was born out of my relationship with Hunter Thompson over many years. It covers the first four. The relationship started in Random House when one of my bosses, Jim Silberman, asked me to copy edit Hunter's Hell's Angels manuscript and be the link – his pathway up to Jim at the top of the chain. I was to keep Hunter happy by catering to his every concern. Hunter knew nothing about me. But he immediately secured permission to phone me at will, paid for by Random House. For months I was happily on the job at home and off. I see the arrangement – of unlimited phone calls – something like that in You've Got Mail, before personal internet. The Hell's Angels senior editor, Jim Silberman, traveled out to San Francisco, early on, to meet Hunter Thompson. He secured the book, Hunter's first to be published (it was half written in manuscript), from its intended paperback publisher, Ballantine. Signed and sealed the deal. And we were off to the races.
Buy worldwide on Kindle $3.99; iPad (US, British) $5.99. Nook $5.99!
From the San Francisco/Sacramento Book Review: "While the job at Random House did offer her the opportunity to meet a lot of writers and famous people, it is Hunter that became her secret office romance. The two start a correspondence within letters and long-distance phone calls that morphs from a concealed passion into a long-term friendship. Keep This Quiet! is a book about a woman's life and her loves, determination, and discovery. ". . . A great deal of the book is personal letters from Hunter to Margaret, with Margaret's inside emotions written in the theoretical margins. Harrell is an excellent storyteller, in a story that is never about the narrative, but about the real people. Every person in the book is bold and well defined; and I especially liked the notes where Harrell backs up her story with proof."
From Ron Whitehead
"KEEP THIS QUIET! a memoir: My Relationship with Hunter S. Thompson, Milton Klonsky, and Jan Mensaert by Margaret A. Harrell is a masterpiece! I never expected to say that about a memoir yet as I say it memories of so many other great works of creative non-fiction autobiographies memoirs etc start flooding in, works by Mark Twain and Walt Whitman and Frederick Douglass and Knut Hamsun and Marcel Proust and Cora Sandel and James Joyce and Virginia Woolf and Ernest Hemingway and Zora Neale Hurston and Thomas Merton and Jack Kerouac and David Amram and Hunter S. Thompson and Diane di Prima and Bob Dylan and well the list is endless. And I see clearly that Margaret A. Harrell's KEEP THIS QUIET! a memoir stands shoulder to shoulder with the greatest works of alltime. And I hear that volume 2 is on the way. How fortunate we are! Bravo Margaret A. Harrell! Thank You!!!" Ron Whitehead, outlaw poet and damn proud to be Author of numerous books of poetry and DVDs, also presently Kentucky's Ambassador to Estonia. Check it out. I hesitated to post the Ron Whitehead review right on the front page because it was so flattering, but then someone said, "If it were me, I'd run a banner headline." In this website you will become familiar with some of the people and events surrounding Keep This Quiet! I hope you will rush out to buy the book – experience the live words of Hunter Thompson again and relive some of his finest moments, of which he had so many. He had already written The Rum Diary in draft. But nothing in book form of his was in print. And then came Hell's Angels, a best seller. Keep This Quiet! walks with Hunter Thompson as he enters the wide arena in which he became a legend. I hope this new Hunter Thompson book will find a place in your heart, as Hunter did in mine. And if you like it, don't forget to write a review! Buy from Amazon here

Grindstone Lakes with Fly and Field Outfittters
Posted by Arian Stevens at 11:00 AM 0 comments
Saturday, October 12, 2013
Scott Cook & Griff Marshall of Fly and Field Outfitters headed up to Crane Prairie Reservoir and Wickiup Reservoir at the end of the Summer to get one last crack at the monster trout waters before Winter kicked in. It started out as one of those "you should have been here yesterday" days, but once the fish started to get hungry we completely forgot about the early slump. We started in search of CRANEBOWS on Crane Prairie, we found plenty, and even spotted the granddaddy, but he was a wise one and ignored our presentations. Then off to big Wickiup Browns that will pry the line from your hand when they pounce on your streamer!

Another Spring filled with big bugs on the water and the local population of trout going ape shit over them. I had a chance to fish for two different species of trout this year during the world famous Deschutes River salmonfly hatch. It was a great experience, but the one thing I learned is to invest in some Chubby Chernobyls (purple and gold ones).

"We've been going down to the Alehouse about once a week for the past few months. Love the place. On our first trip we were blown away by the selection of hard-to-find beers on tap. Cheese and cracker platter while we play darts there is a favorite, but we tried their supposedly great pizza a few times... there's some southwestern pizza that's fairly disguisting... the buffalo chicken is decent. Service is often slow(yet friendly and knowledgable), as the place never seems to be staffed adequately during busy hours."

Baby, woman die in Englewood fire: 'It was like hell,' firefighter says
BY TINA SFONDELES AND MITCH DUDEK Staff Reporters October 15, 2013 1:28PM
Mi'Leyah Denise Johnson

Updated: November 17, 2013 6:24AM
When Dant'e Webb noticed his neighbor's house in Englewood on fire Tuesday morning, he kicked in the front door.
Moments earlier a woman who owns the home told Webb she'd been baby-sitting an 11-month-old girl who was still inside.
"I got low because the smoke was coming out," said Webb, who began yelling to see if anyone was home. "I basically made it as far as I could before it got too bad for me." Police arrived and yelled for Webb to get out. "I was leaving out when the ceiling fell in," he said.
The baby, identified by family and friends as Mi'Leyah Denise Johnson, did not survive. Neither did 49-year-old Geneva White, who was also home at the time.
The fire started around 10:30 a.m. and quickly spread to two other homes on the 6700 block of South Emerald, one of which was vacant.
"It was obvious from the intensity of the fire when crews arrived that it would be next to impossible for anyone to have survived," Chicago Fire Department spokesman Larry Langford said. Flames intensified so much that firefighters could not enter the house.
"It was like hell, fire was blowing out the windows on every floor," said a veteran firefighter at the scene.
Webb, 33, said he wasn't the only person to try to attempt to rescue the infant: "Some other guys broke the front window and were feeling on the couch for the baby, because that's where the owner said it was, but it ended up being a different couch."
The three house fires were extinguished by noon.
Once inside, firefighters found the infant on the first floor and the woman on the second floor, Langford said.
Family members, including the baby's mother, who was on the scene for much of the day, provided few details.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

Portugal's president has accepted a compromise reached by the coalition government that allows it to stay in power, to end a weeks-old political crisis and keep an international bailout on target.
Ruling out early polls, President Anibal Cavaco Silva on Sunday said that he is opting for "the best alternative" which is "the continuation in office of the current government."
"The coalition, which has overcome an internal rift that triggered the crisis in early July, has presented guarantees of a solid understanding on how to successfully complete the bailout programme and allow Portugal to return to full market financing," Silva said.
The coalition almost split on July 2 when Foreign Minister Paulo Portas, the leader of the junior party, threatened to resign raising fears that Portugal would be unable to abide by the terms of its $102 billion international bailout.
The crisis had threatened to derail Lisbon's planned exit from the EU/IMF bailout, especially after talks on a broader political deal between the two coalition parties and the opposition Socialists collapsed on Friday.
But a compromise was reached within the coalition when Portas was appointed deputy to Prime Minister Pedro Passos Coelho—a move that required the president's agreement, which he gave late Sunday.
Positive move
Some observers have called the decision a positive one that would remove uncertainty among investors.
"I think it's a positive decision to calm down investors that removes uncertainty and maintains the drive of meeting the bailout goals," says Rui Barbara, an economist at Banco Carregosa.
"In the eyes of investors, Portugal should return to the situation before the political crisis," Barbara adds.
The government has a solid majority in parliament and last week easily defeated a no-confidence motion.
The main ruling Social Democrats (PSD) has said the government will press on with meeting fiscal goals for Lisbon to exit the rescue programme by mid-2014 as planned.
The austerity measures pursued under the bailout has stoked the worst recession in Portugal since the 1970s.

Hi there. I am new to this fitness board and have a question. First, I'm an overweight runner, by about 20 lbs. I run anywhere between 20-40 miles per week, depending on what I'm training for, and I usually run 4 days a week. I am overweight because I eat like crap!! But I'm working on it. The next thing I would like to work on is strength training. I would really just like to get toned and healthier all together, along with losing those 20lbs. My question is this. I have no idea when or how often I should go to the gym, or what I'm supposed to do when I get there. I thought if I could post my possible schedule on here that someone could help me work it all out. Keep in mind, I can't reduce the number of days I run right now. I'm doing a half marathon in May.
Mon: 8-9:15 am- Gym
Tue: 6:30-7:45 am- Gym, 4:00 pm- run (1hr)
Wed: 8-9:15 am-Gym
Thur: 8-9:30 am-Gym, 4:00 pm- run (1hr)
Fri: 8-9 am - Gym, 4:00 pm- run (1hr)
Sat- REST
Sun: Long Run (2+ hours)
So I can definitely get to the gym, would I have to go as often as I have listed here, and what body parts do I work on each day?
I know this question probably seems petty but I'm just clueless when it comes to strength training and going to the gym. I know you're not supposed to work the same muscle groups every day. That's pretty much all I know. Thanks for any info!!!

Honduran police promised Tuesday to thoroughly investigate the killing of a gay rights activist who joined in protests against the June coup that ousted President Manuel Zelaya.
The anti-coup National Resistance Front said gunmen in a car shot Walter Trochez on Sunday as he walked in downtown Tegucigalpa. Friends rushed him to a hospital, where he died.
"Trochez was an active militant in the resistance and an example of the fight against the dictatorship," the group said in a statement released on the day the victim was buried.Trochez is one of three dozen Hondurans executed since the June 28th coup.
The front, which until recently staged daily protests to demand Zelaya's restoration to the presidency, blamed the attack "on the repressive forces that the oligarchy uses to stop the demands of the Honduran people for liberty and democracy." (Yahoo News)

Sunday Celebration of....Gospel and World Sacred Music with Marc Matheson, every other week.
Occasionally Janet Robbins and other Guest Hosts....Upcoming Broadcasts:
Once a month on a Sunday, KWMR programmer Marc Matheson hosts "Sunday Celebration of Gospel", a three-hour festival of the best from the African American gospel music traditions and contemporary interpretations.
August 4th is the birthday of Barack Hussein Obama, America's first openly biracial president and so we feature this month excerpts from "Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance", Barack's memoir, read by the author.
Once every month Marc Matheson brings gospel to Community Radio KWMR - and this time it's an extra special celebration.
The first two-and-a-half hours feasture soulful spirituals and hip shakin' hymns from the African American tradition...and then we journey to the land of red, white and blue for a brief taste of France, in honor of Bastile Day, during the concluding half-hour!
Salut! And Hallelujah!

Procrastinate Now 2/10/13
Categories: Bethlehem Skateplaza, Events, Homebase Team Rider, Procrastinate, Skateboarding, videos
Congratulations. If you're reading this, you've survived Nemo. If you still happen to be snowed in, I've got some good news for you; it's time to procrastinate now.
Remember when the Bethlehem Skateplaza wasn't covered in snow and ice? Hopefully we'll all be seeing sights like in this clip from Matt Andersen again soon.
Robert Reed sure knows how to take a photo, and Brendan Spohn can pop one hell of an ollie. Perfect combination.
Let's call it a teaser. Matt Pepe put together this clip featuring Luis Castro, Dmitri Cobb, Jared Jackson, Brandon Sandt, Twiggy, and a whole bunch more people who we're looking forward to seeing footage from in the upcoming Homebase video.
That's it for this week kids, keep those photos/videos coming to firstname.lastname@example.com, and we'll see you for trivia night this Friday at 8 pm. Get to studying.

Tribeca Film Festival 2013: Thrillers

Tribeca Film Festival 2013: complete schedule
RECOMMENDED: All Tribeca Film Festival coverage
The Birds
Celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of one of the greatest thrillers ever made! A casual boy-meets-girl story takes a turn toward the extreme when the couple lands in the tiny town of Bodega Bay, California, just in time to witness its sizable population of birds attack. Alfred Hitchcock, the Master of Suspense, directed this nightmarish fantasy starring Tippi Hedren, Rod Taylor, Jessica Tandy and Suzanne Pleshette.
- Brookfield Place Plaza 220 Vesey St, at West St, 10281
Neil Jordan's exploration of vampirism began with Interview with the Vampire. Now he returns to this lurid, malevolent realm through Clara (Gemma Arterton) and her daughter Eleanor (Saoirse Ronan). Creatures from Clara's past come calling, and these immortals are forced to relocate. Dire consequences follow anyway when Eleanor makes a connection with a local boy (Caleb Landry Jones) and slowly reveals the truth of who they are and how they survive.
- SVA Theatre 333 W 23rd St, between Eighth and Ninth Aves
Dark Touch
Neve (Marie Missy Keating) is the lone survivor of a bloody massacre after the furniture and objects in her family's isolated house take on a monstrous life of their own. The police ignore her wild stories, and the family friends and social worker who take her in try to introduce her to a new life. But in this psychological thriller, Neve is unable to leave her violent past behind her, endangering everyone who crosses her path.
Frankenstein's Army
In the waning days of World War II, a team of Russian soldiers finds itself on a mysterious mission to the lab of one Dr. Victor Frankenstein. They unearth a terrifying Nazi plan to resurrect fallen soldiers as an army of unstoppable freaks and are soon trapped in a veritable haunted house of cobbled-together monstrosities. Frankenstein's Army is the wild steampunk Nazi found-footage zombie mad scientist film you've always wanted.
Fresh Meat
After a poorly executed escape from the police, a gang of dysfunctional criminals flees to the suburbs and gets more than it bargained for when it crash lands in the garage of an upper-class Maori family whose refined palates have developed a taste for human flesh. This action-packed horror comedy tells a blood-spattered tale of basement butchery and shifting allegiances as these unlikely adversaries enter a deadly showdown.
The Machine
Caradog James adds another layer to the Frankenstein story in the latest gripping sci-fi adventure to come out of the U.K. Already deep into a second Cold War, Britain's Ministry of Defence seeks a game-changing weapon. Programmer Vincent McCarthy unwittingly provides an answer in The Machine, a super-strong human cyborg. When a programming bug causes the prototype to decimate his lab, McCarthy takes his obsessive efforts underground, far away from inquisitive eyes.
The Moment
After a tumultuous affair between international photojournalist Lee (Jennifer Jason Leigh) and troubled writer John (Martin Henderson) ends in John's disappearance, Lee lands in a mental hospital to recuperate. She strikes up a friendship with a fellow patient bearing an uncanny resemblance to her missing lover. The pair works to uncover the truth behind the disappearance, but Lee's precarious sanity comes under threat when the clues lead to the last place she would ever expect.
Mr. Jones
Scott (Jon Foster) is a filmmaker in need of inspiration. He and his girlfriend Penny (Sarah Jones) move into a desolate house hoping to make a breakthrough. Then they discover their neighbor, the elusive Mr. Jones. Famous for his haunting sculptures, Mr. Jones has remained a mystery to the world. Scott and Penny, convinced that they have found the perfect film subject, sneak into his workshop and realize that their curiosity may have chilling consequences. Who is Mr. Jones?
Stuntwoman Zoe Bell (Death Proof) headlines this sly subversion of the women-in-prison genre. After Sabrina (Bell) is abducted, she finds herself in an underground lair, forced to do battle with other innocent women for the amusement of unseen spectators. Each of these reluctant warriors has something to lose, but only one will remain when the game is done. Violent and relentless, Raze takes its video game aesthetic to the deepest and darkest places, rarely surfacing for air.
The Reluctant Fundamentalist
Mira Nair (Monsoon Wedding, The Namesake) returns with another spellbinding adaptation of a celebrated bestseller. Pakistan-born Changez (Riz Ahmed) turns a Princeton degree into a cushy life on Wall Street with a gorgeous girlfriend (Kate Hudson). Then the Twin Towers fall, and his American dream shatters amid interrogations and overwhelming national distrust. He soon questions his allegiances, as this thriller exposes the dangers of being a stranger in your own land.
A Single Shot
A Single Shot brings together a wealth of indie stalwarts, including Sam Rockwell, William H. Macy, Melissa Leo and Jeffrey Wright, to paint a tense portrait of John Moon, a man attempting to win back his estranged family while desperately outrunning an accidental crime. Director David M. Rosenthal returns to the Festival with this ominously atmospheric and suspenseful backwoods tale of circumstance, based on Matthew F. Jones's 1996 novel.
Investigators break into a house, find a vast collection of VHS tapes and play them one by one. The videos include visions of the paranormal, flesh-eating zombies, a shockingly genuine scene of hell on earth and a slumber party gone horribly awry. This highly anticipated sequel to last year's horror breakout V/H/S features contributions from current genre filmmaking's leading talents, including the creators of Hobo with a Shotgun, The Raid, You're Next and The Blair Witch Project.
The brutality of winter and the power of the mind are aptly portrayed in this dark comedy set in Northern Quebec. Bruce (Thomas Haden Church) is merely trying to survive a harsh winter when he meets Paul. Conflict leads to a complicated situation, and Bruce finds himself in an unexpected place. Grappling with guilt, he soon creates a prison from which he cannot escape. Haden Church perfectly utilizes his comic talent in this wry, well-crafted film.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

There Is a Silent, Feature Length Film Made Entirely of GIFs and It's Transcendental
The .GIF has taken over the Internet. Once the purview of Geocities sites and cheap Internet 1.0 shenanigans, they've made a Renaissance as a form of humor and communication in Tumblr posts, Buzzfeed listicles and ways to express our existential dread — they even have their own search engine.
This past Sunday, in a packed screening room in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, filmmakers Eric Fleischauer and Jason Lazarus showed the first feature length experimental gif documentary. The film, called twohundredfiftysixcolors, is a historical record of the gif-as-art-form from 1987 to 2013 as told by the medium's strangest, most viral practitioners. The team behind twohundredfiftysixcolors spent years putting the film together, collecting the gifs by putting out open calls, contacting artists and building a database of over 3000 gifs organized by similar aesthetic themes.

Merry Christmas . Tue 16 Sep 2014 Lovely purse and different from any others I have seen. Arrived nicely wrapped too. I'm thrilled with it. Sat 13 Sep 2014 Ordered this lovely purse for my niece for her birthday, I liked it so much I got one for myself too. The colours are lovely and its its nice to have something a bit different. My niece loved her's too. Wed 23 Jul 2014 The purse is gorgeous and the colours are bright but the popper is deff in the wrong place. The first time I used it it had no change in etc and I had a job closing it. Now its got a few cards in and a bit of change the popper pulls on the material so after a lot of use I imagine it will eventually rip!! I do love it but am a little disappointed with the quality, if it has lots of change it wont close properly and everything comes out in my bag!! Mon 14 Jul 2014 Great, this was a gift, they loved it, nicely made, looks great. Sun 13 Jul 2014 Lovely purse - so pretty and unusual. Would have liked it to be boxed as it was for a gift however loved the mailing box! Sat 05 Jul 2014 Beautiful Wed 02 Jul 2014 The popper is in a poor position to close the purse when you have cards and money in. Not the best design. Keeps opening in my bag and all the contents fall out. Also, I should have shopped around as this is cheaper on a number of sites. Thu 29 May 2014 Lovely purse, good quality. As nice as the picture. Could do with more card slots though. Wed 28 May 2014 Perfect gift. She loves it.

Eye catching, well made and practical Wed 22 Jan 2014 Nice wallet but was damaged when it turned up. It had what looked likes a cigarette burn in the material inside.

Lai, Food See and Awang Jalil, Norajiki (1988) Some Stream Water Quality Characteristics of Two Small Logged Over Watersheds in Selangor. Pertanika, 11 (3). pp. 461-468.
A study of selected stream water quality parameters was carried out in two forested watersheds with varying degrees of disturbance. The study period of six months from August 1983 to January 1984 involved regular sampling at between 1400 and 1500 hours. Results indicate all parameters observed from the relatively more disturbed watershed WA were higher than the less disturbed basin WB. Mean values of stream water quality parameters of WA and WB respectively are as follows: water temperature - 25.3 and 25.PC; dissolved oxygen - 6.7 and 6.4 ppm; pH - 5.55 and 5.25; conductivity 16.0 and 11.3 J.Unhos/cm; suspended solids - 22 and 7 mg/l and; total dissolved solids - 36 and 31 mg/l. The findings suggest logging operations had varying influences on the water quality parameters. Although affected, the water quality remains good, aided by environmental considerations during logging operations.

Horde modules and ISPConfig 3
There is any compatibility problem between ISPConfig 3 and the next Horde modules?
Ingo, the "Email Filter Rules Manager", started as a frontend for the Sieve filter language, and is now a generic and complete filter rule frontend that currently is able to create Sieve, procmail, maildrop, and IMAP filter rules. The IMAP filter driver translates the filter rules on demand to IMAP commands, executed via PHP's IMAP extension and has replaced IMP's internal filtering code. It is now the default filtering agent in IMP H3 (4.x).
More info: http://www.horde.org/ingo/
Passwd is the Horde password changing application. While it has been released and is in production use at many sites, it is also under heavy development in an effort to expand and improve the module. Right now, Passwd provides fairly complete support for changing passwords via Poppassd, LDAP, Unix expect scripts, the Unix smbpasswd command for SMB/CIFS passwords, Kolab, ADSI, Pine, Serv-U FTP, VMailMgr, vpopmail, and SQL passwords.
More info: http://www.horde.org/passwd/
SpamAssassin Module
Sam is the Horde module permitting to each user to manage his SpamAssassin or Amavisd-new preferences. For example, it can authorize to change SpamAssassin user scores, manage blacklist and whitelist. User preferences can be stored in a variety of backends such as a SQL database, LDAP storage or on an FTP server.
More info: http://www.horde.org/sam/
Forwards is a Horde module for setting user e-mail forwards with support for several popular mailers. Right now, Forwards provides fairly complete support for setting .forward style forwards on Sendmail, Courier, or Qmail mail based systems via an FTP transport. It now also has drivers for Mdaemon, Exim SQL, Exim LDAP, Custom SQL, and SOAP based systems.
More info: http://www.horde.org/forwards/
Vacation is a Horde module for managing user e-mail "vacation notices" or "auto-responders." It works via a local vacation program which must be installed and functioning on the server. It supports vacation programs using the .forward-style forwarding mechanism supported by several popular mailers. Right now, Vacation provides fairly complete support for managing .forward style vacation notices on Sendmail or Courier mail based systems via an FTP transport. It also has some support for LDAP, Qmail, and SQL servers.
More info: http://www.horde.org/vacation/
Another question: is possible coordinate Gollem with the web space limit fixed in ISPConfig 3?
Gollem is the Horde web-based File Manager, providing the ability to fully manage a hierarchical file system stored in a variety of backends such as a SQL database, as part of a real filesystem, or on an FTP server. It uses the Horde's MIME_Viewer framework to identify file types, associate icons, etc.
More info: http://www.horde.org/gollem/
Thanks and cordial greetings,
As far as I can see, none of them will work with ISPConfig. ISPConfig uses maildrop as lda and nnot a sieve lda.
Thanks, Till,
I'm testing some of these modules:
Ingo: it works
Passwd: by default it don't works, but it have several configurable backends.
Maybe it works with a customized SQL backend:
PHP Code:
SpamAssassin Module: I can't know it (no spam at this moment: new domain). I will report later, when I receive spam.
Forwards: I don't know (not installed).
Vacation: I don't know (not installed).
Gollem: I don't know (not installed: I need limit the space available).
This backend works for me (add into /etc/horde/passwd3/backends.php):
PHP Code:
OK, I think this option is secure if Horde, ISPConfig and its MySQL database are in the same server. Correct?
Thanks and cordial greetings,
Hi Spanish
That backend config of yours still works fine on Horde 4 :) thx for that.
Hi Sjau. Thanks for the info! Greetings, Manuel
Sorry to jump into the thread, is this setting works on the latest passwd version??
Or do i need some modification for it?
Thank you.
I wrote a howto for horde 4 / ispconfig a little while back. using the search function you should be able to find it
I have read and followed it to replaced the "sql" block with ispconfig db settings
but when i try to change password, i get "user not found" and HORDE: [passwd] PHP ERROR: Undefined index: db [pid 4053 on line 92 of "/var/www/html/mail/passwd/lib/Factory/Driver.php"] in system log.
So i'm wondering what i have done wrong.
I'm running Horde imp in horde4 framework instead of horde4 webmail tho, but i guess this is not matter as passwd is a seperate module if i understand it correctly.
and now i get HORDE: [passwd] PHP ERROR: Undefined index: encryption [pid 16481 on line 136 of "/var/www/html/path-to-horde/passwd/config/backends.php"] too.
edit: hmm, i got this sorted out now, thx.

Patt Morrison for October 13, 2011
Reaction to Senator Sanders
Not everyone is going to agree with the Senator's point of view on financial regulatory reform, or on Occupy Wall Street. Patt hears a voice on the other side.
