 The Kennedy Withdrawal Over the course of several meetings, from October 2 through October 5, 1963, President Kennedy and his advisers debated the merits of a plan to withdraw the bulk of U.S. troops from Vietnam by the end of 1965. Segments from two of those meetings, from the morning and evening of October 2, reveal Kennedy's concerns about that plan and the language with which it was to be explained to the American public.

|I am in the planning stages of building a new home and would love to see photos of fireplaces. I don't see a Gallery of fireplaces on this section so please post your pics. Thanks
Follow-Up Postings:
|debnj3 - It's beautiful! Do you have a before picture you can post?
|pamkcs- Thank you very much. The only "before" picture I could find right now is this one. This is a picture I took when I came to look at this house when I was house hunting. 16 years later I finally did it over .

|debnj3 - It looks great!! How did you redo your bricks? Also, where did you get your mantle? I've been looking for something similar to yours (not so ornate) and I'm not finding much. Are the mirrors attached to the mantle? Thanks!
|Try Isokern or Fire Rock websites for some nice galleries.
Thank you! Some previous owner removed the original fireplace and replaced it with that big brick box. There is another fireplace right behind it so I did not want to mess with removing the bricks. I screwed furring strips right on the bricks and built the surround and mantle myself. My mother's 50+ year old mirror was cut up and each of the five were framed right onto the wall above the mantle. It's hard to see but in the center of each mirror is an embossed floral design. There are signs of age in the mirror so it looks like is been there for years and that's okay since my house is 120 years old. I would love to see what the original looked like!
|Well does one in progress count? I hope to have this project done next week.

|debnj3 That is quite an improvement. Looks beautiful! If you don't mind me asking- what is your hardwood flooring? (Brand, color)
|Thanks blissful. I was told that they are the original heart pine floors from when the house was built in 1886. We had them refinished recently and they came out pretty nice... squeaks and all.

Jones (Judging Amy) have been cast as Homeland Security agents in Time Bomb, a CBS TV-movie about a bomb set to go off at a football game in Washington, D.C. The drama will unfold in real time.... Ewan McGregor will star in Edward Blum's full-length feature directorial debut, Scenes of a Sexual Nature, a comedy about seven couples' complicated relationships and, we are promised, no clones.

Spring Break Shark Attack
How do you take on a hot show like Desperate Housewives? With some vampire bats, a time bomb and a serial killer, of course. And if those don't do the job, there's always a "superstorm" to destroy the world.
Welcome to the new CBS Sunday Movie, long the network-TV home for the tearjerker or spiritually uplifting Hallmark Hall of Fame film. A steady diet of those movies simply isn't doing the job to attract younger viewers away from ABC's Sunday lineup. CBS Entertainment president Nina Tassler said at the Television Critics Association press tour on Tuesday that it's time to change course with more B-movie-esque thrillers.
"We know we're up against a juggernaut on Sunday nights," she said. "As a result, we're trying some high-concept and popcorn movies to go along with our traditional female films and star-driven vehicles. You'll also see a somewhat different scheduling strategy."
In other words, Tassler will put those movies

You might think viewing pornography can't hurt a real-life relationship. Some even claim that erotic material impacts their relationships in positive ways. So a team of researchers at Florida State University developed an experiment to determine how consuming pornography affects adults' commitment to romantic relationships.
The research team recruited college students who were in heterosexual relationships and who viewed pornography on a regular basis. They were told the study was an investigation of "self-control" and were randomly assigned one of two activities to abstain from for a period of three weeks. Half of the students were asked to avoid looking at all materials showing nudity or sex, including websites, videos, and magazines. They were encouraged to be honest and to record in a daily calendar if and when they were not successful. The others were asked to abstain from eating their favorite food. At the end of the three weeks, both groups were asked how committed they were to their relationship.
The Result: The people who eliminated or significantly reduced their viewing of pornographic material were significantly more committed to their relationships than those who continued to view the material. These results held true for both men and women.

News Update: Basic Credit Repair Misconceptions Debunked
At Coast to Coast Credit Services, Inc. we take pride in maximizing our client's credit scores in a time efficient manner to improve the quality of their lives by enabling them to achieve their financial goals! Coast to Coast Credit Services, Inc. appreciates your conscious effort to improve the quality of your life. Our credit repair company is steadfast in our morally strong work ethics, and maintain a true and aggressive commitment to our clients!
The Good
Coast to Coast Credit Services may not be the top-rated credit repair company, but their customer service staff if very willing to answer any questions you have and help with your credit problems. You don't have to wait forever to get on the line with someone and they don't have very many customer complaints on sites like the Better Business Bureau. They offer free consultation and are credible because they are registered with the State of Texas. They deal with foreclosures, tax liens, collections, bankruptcies, charge-offs, late payments, mortgage interest rates over six percent and more.
The Bad
Coast to Coast's price is a flat fee of anywhere from $500-$1,000 depending on the services you need done. If it takes six months to complete anything you need fix and it costs $1,000 then you will end up paying more than $150 per month. This is on the higher end of how much credit repair companies charge on a monthly basis. Also, their website does not look professional and doesn't offer extra information on learning about credit in general. Another downside to Coast to Coast Credit Services is that you aren't able to access your customer reports online, instead you have to call customer service and access it through them.
The Bottom Line
Coast to Coast Credit Services seems to be slowly moving in the direction. They have great customer service, but are missing some convenient and practical services for a credit repair company. Their multiple, but small, holes add up and don't offer the best overall quality. Until they improve those small errors, Coast to Coast Credit Services wouldn't be the best credit repair company to choose.

Silencing those demons and beginning to serve.Posted: February 1, 2012 Filed under: Conflict resolution, Deconstructing Power, Healing, New Interpretation of Scripture, Reflection, Sermon, Spiritual Therapy | Tags: church conflict, demons speak, ego and evil, following Jesus, jesus healing, lectionary, Mark 1:29-39, silencing evil, textweek.com 9 Comments
Mark 1:29-39
As soon as they left the synagogue, they entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. Now Simon's mother-in-law was in bed with a fever, and they told him about her at once. He came and took her by the hand and lifted her up. Then the fever left her, and she began to serve them.
That evening, at sundown, they brought to him all who were sick or possessed with demons. And the whole city was gathered around the door. And he cured many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him. In the morning, while it was still very dark, he got up and went out to a deserted place, and there he prayed. And Simon and his companions hunted for him. When they found him, they said to him, "Everyone is searching for you." He answered, "Let us go on to the neighboring towns, so that I may proclaim the message there also; for that is what I came out to do." And he went throughout Galilee, proclaiming the message in their synagogues and casting out demons.
Human suffering is a great way to meet Jesus.
I would love to have been able to interview the crowd that followed him around during his ministry and establish what percentage of them were following because they had encountered in Jesus, some liberation from their suffering . I am sure they would make up the majority of the crowd. Another sector might be those who were in the process of being healed by ongoing encounter with him?
I like the way the New Revised Standard Version translates the action of Peter's mother-in-law after the fever. It renders "dieykonei" as "she began to serve them". Do you also hear the present continuous sense to it? I love the implication that it was the beginning of perhaps, a lifetime of service?
There is also an interesting quatrain of activities as Jesus goes about his public ministry:
- He proclaims the unconditional acceptance of God for all, to all.
- He heals the sick.
- He casts out darkness(demons)
- He retreats into prayer.
What a wonderful rhythm for the Christ following life. How often can I recall times of frustration or burn out because I have neglected to attend to these four activities in a balanced way.
As students of yoga know, you cannot only breathe in, nor can you only breathe out.
Yet we who have been blessed, healed, and who have had our darkness dispelled by Jesus. We who now serve and follow him, need to learn the potency and sanity for our own lives of Proclaim, Heal, Remove darkness, Pray. I don't think the sequential order is essential. What is essential is balancing our lives firmly on those four legs.
Yes, I know I am avoiding commenting on why Jesus wouldn't allow the demons "who knew him" to speak. I can only speculate from the times we do hear them speak in Mark, that they speak only of themselves in the most egotistical terms. For example, "'What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us?" Mark 1:24. Can you hear the "me" in "Demon"?
For the demons in Jesus' day, and the "demons" in me now, it is always about "me".
Why me? Why do I have a fever? Why should I proclaim unconditional love? Why must I be the healer of others and their relationships? Why do I have to put up with the darkness of others? What has it to do with me? Why should I have to pray now?
That's demonic language.
That's just not the kind of language that will help any of us understand the selfless, life sacrificing Christ; let alone be healed by him and begin to serve him.
Better we don't listen to it?
If he can shut those voices up in me, I won't complain.
9 Comments on "Silencing those demons and beginning to serve."
Thanks Peter, as always you have a gift of taking Scripture, blowing off the cobwebs and breathing a breath of fresh air into the text.
I like the insight of 'demons' speaking only about themselves and the connection with the ego and selfishness in me. I know those voices, although sometimes they are subtle and whispered.
Would this story, this incident been of more impact if, after Simon's mother is healed, she had been served instead of rising from her sick bed to prepare food for the men? I'm just saying…. Charis
Peter, I wonder if at times we are far too quick to cast out the demons instead of discerning carefully what they are in actual fact saying. I think a careful discernment of their voices can take us in to an understanding of ourselves that other voices can't give.
Nice shadow work Don.
Thanks for the insight.
Very well written. I just came across your blog while preparing to lead worship, and this is the Pastor's scripture for the week. You have helped me understand this passage more deeply, and shown me a way to apply it in my own life.
You have a gift.
Thank you.

Airports in Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH)
Second only to Dubai International, Abu Dhabi International Airport (AHU) is one of the biggest and busiest airports in the United Arab Emirates. Serving roughly 11 million passengers each year, the airport handles flights from all over the world, including major destinations in Europe, Africa, North America and Asia, and is currently building extensions to be able to handle up to 20 million people per year by 2016.
Located 20 miles (32km) from Abu Dhabi's city centre, Abu Dhabi International Airport has three terminals; Terminals 1 and 2 handle most of the international traffic, while the third is a luxurious terminal dedicated to passengers on Etihad Airways. While the airport can be chaotic, especially at peak times, it has modern facilities including shops, restaurants and services designed for an efficient introduction to the UAE.
The airport is 20 miles (32km) east of Abu Dhabi.
Getting to the city
Taxis are readily available (rates are fixed for trips to the city centre) while bus 901 goes to the city and stops outside Arrivals at terminal 1 and 2. It operates on an hourly basis, 24-hours a day, and a single ticket costs AED3. Limousine taxis are located outside the Arrival halls of Terminals 1 and 2. CityHoppa runs shuttle vans and private cars from the airport to Abu Dhabi city centre.

Al Ain International Airport (AAN)
A smaller, secondary airport serving Abu Dhabi, Al Ain International Airport is located eight miles (18km) northwest of Al Ain, a popular resort city in the United Arab Emirates. Only seven airlines operate from the facility, offering flights to Al Ain International Airport from regional destinations like Qatar, Jordan, Sudan, Oman, Pakistan and India.
The facilities at Al Ain International Airport are basic, but the airport itself is pleasant, even providing a picnic area and playground in the landscaped gardens; there are also a selection of restaurants and duty-free shops.

The medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) has confirmed the release of four staff members abducted in Sudan's western Darfur region."We have direct confirmation of the release of our colleagues. The four were released," Erwin Van t'Land, a spokesman for MSF in Belgium, said on Saturday.
A Sudanese foreign ministry official had earlier in the day announced that the four were to be released. Armed men seized an Italian doctor, a French administrator, a Canadian nurse and a Sudanese member of staff from MSF's compound in Saf Umra, North Darfur, on Wednesday.
The Italian foreign ministry had announced the release on Friday, but officials in Khartoum denied that it had taken place.The charity pulled nearly all of its personnel out of Darfur following the abductions. Only staff working on securing the release of their colleagues had remained behind.Christopher Stokes, general director of the Belgian sectionof MSF, said: "We are incredibly relieved that our colleagues are safe and in goodhealth."Their families have been informed and are overjoyed. Our thoughtsare with each of our colleagues and their families as they look forward tobeing reunited. We are delighted this incident is resolved."
Aid groups expelledThe abductions came days after the government told the French and Dutch contingents of MSF to leave Darfur.
Khartoum accuses the aid groups of co-operating with the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague, which has indicted Omar al-Bashir, the Sudanese president, for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Darfur over the past six years.
The United Nations says that more than 180 foreign aid workers have left Sudan since the order by Khartoum to expel the aid groups.
The conflict in Darfur erupted after ethnic fighters rebelled against the Arab-dominated government.
The UN estimates that about 300,000 people have died in the western region from the combined results of war, famine and disease over the course of the last six years. At least 2.7 million have been displaced.

We are having a very strange wireless problem with a couple of models of laptops here.
We connect the laptops to the wireless network and all seems fine; we can connect to the internet, view network shares and also access our internal Exchange OWA mailboxes and Sharepoint sites.
However, after a seemingly random amount of inactivity of use, the laptop is then unable to connect to either Exchange or Sharepoint. All internet access and access to shares remains fine however. We have to repair the wireless connection to make the Exchange and Sharepoint work again, and then the process is repeated again.
The only difference with Exchange and Sharepoint is that they are behind our Forefront TMG server.
I have posted this in hardware aswell as Windows because it is only two types of wireless card that are affected. I have tried tweaking settings but to no avail.
One of the affected WLAN cards is the Broadcom 802.11g and the other is Atheros AR5007EG.
Just wondering if anyone else has had similar problems?

Beachwatch 2013 - a great success
On Saturday 21st September Amgueddfa Cymru ran their annual Beachwatch event. This involved fantastic family science activities in the morning attended by 41 members of the public and seven members of staff. Participants looked at strandline and rockpool animals and seaweeds as well as fossilised corals and snails. Inspired by the fossils and shells that they had seen, the children went on to create wonderful pieces of artwork using Plaster of Paris on the wet sand of the beach.
After lunch, the volunteers gathered to clean the beach and do a litter survey recording all the items they found. The beach clean was attended by 59 volunteers including many of the families from the morning activities.
The results will be sent to the Marine Conservation Society who will collect the data from this beach and hundreds of other UK beaches that were cleaned this weekend. As well as making the beach safer for people and marine life, the Marine Conservation Society also use the data to find out where beach litter comes from and contribute to marine conservation.
As you can see from the photo we found a lot of rubbish including 9 tyres, half a canoe and a traffic cone! A huge thank you to our wonderful volunteers, Ogmore Beach now looks even more beautiful!

Bankers Burying Money in the Garden: Street Whispers
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- These are supposedly tough times for investment bankers. There is less money, fewer private jets in the fleet and you never know when the U.S. Attorney's office is listening in.
But one thing that hasn't changed is "gardening leave"--that time-honored tradition where investment bankers sit on their butts for three to six months after being spirited away from one Wall Street bank to another. The goal is to sideline dealmakers and prevent them from stealing business from their old shop.
But, alas, even that is getting too expensive.
On Evercore's (EVR) earnings call Thursday CEO Ralph Schlosstein and Chairman Roger Altman explained that bankers are never profitable the first year they work because -- in addition to the three to six months gardening leave -- it takes several months for the banker to get his mojo back. It could be months before a new hire structures a deal, announces it and then closes it.
"By and large, the first year for almost everyone is a zero on the revenue side," Altman said. That poses a challenge for firms like Evercore, which are under more pressure than ever to cut costs. The obvious way to do that is by slashing compensation. But how to do that when you've got to pay every new hire for a year without getting any returns? One obvious way is to hire less. "The reality is that every hire that we make costs a few cents a share in the - on the income statement of the period in which they're hired," Schlosstein said.
Evercore has made just six senior hires this year, and Ken Jacobs, CEO of rival Lazard (LAZ) sounds even more cautious. "We don't really need to add any additional head count to really take advantage of any upturn in the macroeconomic environment," Jacobs says. -- Written by Dan Freed in New York.

Light and airy 234 sqm for sale
This home has seven rooms spread over two floors and 234 sqm, located in Vasastan, the northern part of central Stockholm, very close to where I grew up. Our apartment wasn't as huge as this though...
Wowwwwwww. This is my dream apartment!!
Thanks Anna! I started to get a little worried I had lost my "eye" when noone commented on this, and the only comment I got on fb was that it was boring... I love it, and I certainly trust your eye, so now I'm sure it really is as great as I thought. :)
I love it!! Particularly all the Alvar Aalto / Artek furniture that I've been dreaming of owning for far too long...
Underbar lägenhet - den klumpiga "trappan" på näst sista bilden var jag dock inte så förtjust i, men resten! :-)
Oh great!! Does anyone know what the livingroom lamp is, I really like the petal shapes!
Dette var fantastisk! Jeg likte den trappen veldig godt! Neida,Emma, du har ikke mistet øyet ditt:)
Eye Candy! The t.v. has to go though, but otherwise, great!
Thanks for the inspiration.
Gillar stylingen, om det nu inte är ägarens egna stil. Känns hemtrevligt och äkta.
I love the wide windows and the view. I wouldn't say no to waking up to that every morning.
liker den trappen med hvitt massivt rekkverk.
Jeg har akkurat begynt på en blogg, håper det er ok at jeg samler på det trappebildet i min blogg
Denne leiligheten var rå! God idé å ha et stort bilde under trappa, et sted som ellers lett blir glemt.
Ha en fin kveld:)
Otroligt snyggt hem. Vardagsrummet såg dock lite trist ut. Förmodligen pga TV:n. Man är inte så van att se dem... =)
oh this is soooo amazing- I will start visualizing now!
hello emma!
this apartment was so familiar to me, so i did my best to remember where i have already seen pictures of this apartment before: you postet about Jonas Ingerstedt in december 2009 and he took very nice picture of the same apartment :)
greetings from berlin
Karina: Yeeah, I thought it was familiar, but I didn't realize I had posted it here before until I saw a pic of the kitchen in one of my Saturday Sweets posts. Thanks for reminding me! :) I hope you don't mind seeing it again!
Hello emma, i really like this apartement, especially that workspace room. Very comfortable.

What is your friend's most basic, most primal fear? Why is she such a nutcase while dealing with infertility? Why does she avoid you and many of her other friends who have babies and children? Why does she withdraw and refuse invitations? Why does she seem like a different person than the friend who's been beloved to you?
Do you have children? Yes? Ok, well, then imagine that you don't have them. Imagine that all the moments in your day, yes even the aggravating and exhausting ones, don't exist. Imagine that not only don't you have your baby or babies, but imagine that you realize that you might never have them. Imagine that the moments that make your heart soften and melt don't occur.
Wipe out all the memories. No first smiles, no first steps, no first teeth. No messy handprinted cards for mother's or father's day. No seeing the love on your partner's face or your mothers or fathers when holding them. Erase all the photos and images that most likely decorate your home and office.
Picture how the last years would have felt without your children. What might you have been doing instead? Maybe exactly what your friend is doing right now? Throwing your heart, soul, money, time, energy into bringing these babies to your family?
Imagine how quiet your life would be without your children.
How do you describe your children? As the most important beings in your lives?
And still, you can't understand how your friend could be feeling?
Are you sure you can't?

An overdue apology. And a thank you as well.
I was an insensitive clod while I was in fertility treatment. I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I didn't ask more about what you were going through. I'm sorry that I wasn't interested in your life or your experiences or your hardships. I'm sorry that our relationship was mainly about me.
Here's what I believed and understood.
I believed that all my friends and family members and co-workers had to be sensitive and concerned about what I was going through, infertility--yet I rarely expressed interest or concern in what they were experiencing. Especially if it had anything to do with pregnancy, childbirth or parenting. I was not able to attend baby showers or if I did, it ended badly. (See blog about baby showers on PathtoFertility.) It was hard for me to attend birthday parties for my friends' children or to hear about first steps, first teeth, and first illnesses. While it doesn't make up for my absence, I'd like you to know that it practically took my breath away to try to attend gatherings and so I made excuses and stayed away.
I apologize that I wasn't there for you. I apologize that I really couldn't be there for you.
I didn't have any extra to go around. I didn't have more brain cells than what it took to understand the medical procedures and medications that I had to organize around fertility treatment. I didn't have the physical energy, after being at the doctor's office at 7:00 am, four days in one week, before going and working a full day. I didn't have the emotional energy after being on the roller coaster of managing my expectations about becoming pregnant or not, getting good results to tests and then disappointing news and then hearing yet more possibly good news.
I felt crazy. Crazier than I ever have in my life. Crazier than when I was in the midst of finals and couldn't see straight for having stayed up four days in a row. Crazier than when my beloved grandmother died. Crazier than when my daddy died unexpectedly. Crazier and more out of control than all those things put together. An infertility roller coaster is a good visualization and metaphor for fertility treatment.
I am sorry. Regardless that I still feel to this day that I probably couldn't have done it any differently, I am sorry that I was not your friend while I was in fertility treatment.
And thank you. Thank you for sticking by me anyway. Thank you for saying what you thought would be helpful, hearing that it wasn't the comforting comment that you thought it would be and trying again. Thank you for realizing that you couldn't actually say the right thing because there wasn't any one right thing but there were a million wrong things in any given moment. Thank you for continuing to be my friend, for loving me anyway. For having faith that the relationship would right itself again, at some point.
Thank you for loving me despite my turning into someone you didn't recognize and possibly would not have chosen as a friend. Thank you for holding onto the memory of me and keeping it steadfast in your heart. I appreciate that more than I can say.
Carrie Grossman, devotional singer, Kirtan singer, a wonderful light, shared this at a small intimate concert I attended:
I'm sorry, please forgive me, and thank you, I love you
So I do want to also say I love you. All my family, friends and colleagues out there who had my back and front and sides throughout my infertility ordeal.
And who continue to be a light in my life.
Find the words that you need to say.
"No, thank you."
"Yes, please."
Those are two great answers to a question.
If someone asks to help, do you consider your answer carefully?
Infertility and fertility treatment will add a lot to your plate. Not can. Will. Even if you never set foot in a fertility specialist's office, you are thinking about getting pregnant or why you're not getting pregnant or when you will get pregnant or if you will ever get pregnant or how it will be when you are pregnant.
This is distracting and it takes away from other things that you can be thinking about; going to see a doctor who specializes in helping you conceive can often give you less to do, not more.
Accepting help while you're experiencing infertility can mean the difference between feeling like you're part of a team or feeling isolated and lonely.
We have friends and a support system, I hope. If that is not true for you, you may want to think about bolstering up the support system that you do have, make it stronger. How? Call your friends. See them. Deepen relationships. This will be important whether becoming pregnant is easy or difficult. We need community and if you are not feeling like you have that, there are concrete ways and places you can reach out. We can help you find them.
We all need help. Maybe not all of the time, but at some times. A student of mine was trying Arda Chandrasana (half moon pose) and was struggling. Going over and providing a little extra balance was all she needed. She turned her heart and face towards the sky and found contentment instead of struggle in the pose.
All with a little help from a friend.
So raise your hand if you're good at asking for help. Anyone? Anyone at all?
I'll be honest. I didn't raise my hand. I'm not good at it. I don't like to ask. I don't like to accept help and I constantly worry about when I'll be able to offer something back. I keep track when I don't have to and I drive my friends a little crazy, to be perfectly honest.
Interestingly enough, I like to offer help. I like to give help. I like to support other people in ways that make sense and are necessary for them.
Consider when you ask for help that you are offering that to someone else. That when you ask for help, someone else gets to feel better about themselves. Not in a prideful way. in a way that reminds us that we are bigger than just ourselves and that we live in community. Offering someone else help reminds us of our connection to one another.
Infertility is too hard to do by ourselves. It really is.
If your regular support system is not comfortable for you to use right now because of privacy or lack of understanding on their part, try our integrated fertility resources or join us here.
Ask a question. Make a comment. Start a conversation.
Tell me the title or topic of a blog that you really want or need.
We are here for you. I am here for you.
What's your question today?
Or as a dear friend often asks, "how may I help you today?"
It would be my pleasure.
Okay, we were friends well before infertility.
We've been friends since we were five years old. We've gone through our entire lives together. Ice skating lessons, elementary school, being embarassed by our mothers and their friendship, middle school (called Junior High School back then), high school, weddings, disliking each other for periods of time, working together, anniversaries and, yes, infertility.
What brings this up now?
My best friend, Pamela Madsen, who blogs at The Fertility Advocate, is celebrating her thirty-first wedding anniversary to the same man. Pamela and Kai Madsen got married thirty-one years ago today. Oh, the stories I could tell about that day. Me, with the worst memory in the world, I can remember clearly the fresh flowers on the cake because the cake had a little, ahem, accident. It was gorgeous with bright, vibrant zinnia's adorning it--perfect timing for an accident.
And do not ask me why, because it makes no sense. There is no rational reason on earth that I still have the dress.
The dress.
The bridesmaid dress.
I refuse to count how many moves I have made in 31 years that included lugging that dress from one home to another. Suffice it to say that it's made a few moves and lived in a few states.
I will admit here that not only do I still have it, but that it was easily accessible.
Big, big sigh.
I have no clue whatsoever as to where my winter comforter is. Or the bin of summer dresses I put away last summer (which would have been really great to have had for THIS summer). Wouldn't even know where to start to look for Halloween decorations or the dog's shampoo.
So there is no good explanation on why I could walk down into the basement, know exactly where this dress was, even though I have not worn it in 31 years; Why finding it was absolutely no problem, taking less than about 12 seconds.
Even bigger sigh.
Made a big mistake.
Told Pamela that I still have the dress.
When she stopped laughing (which took quite a while), she asked/dared me to put it on facebook. To take a picture of the dress, as I held it up, and post it on facebook.
What else are best friends for? Pamela, remember the incident with the wet cement? And your still daring me?
It's not a good thing to dare your best friends. Especially if it's me.
So down I go into the basement and up comes the dress.
Only why hold it up and not at least try it on?
Can you actually believe I am even telling you this story? Do you promise never to be embarassed by anything you ever do again in your life? Because, really, nothing can top this.
On goes the dress.
It went on.
It zipped up. (There is no elastic and it's a size 2.)
I could breathe. Talk. Walk.
It zipped up.
Just like our friendship, Pamela, a perfect fit, even after many, many years.
Stay tuned for our adventures through infertility, fertility treatment and being cycle buddies.
Infertility. Lots of conversation recently about fertility treatment and timing. Timing about when to do a cycle, when to wait, what we're waiting for.
Some thoughts on the subject:
In the face of an obstacle which is impossible to overcome, stubborness is stupid.
Change your life today. Don't gamble on the future, act now, without delay.
~Simone de Beauvoir
The same woman said both of those things. They look contradictory, don't they? Somewhere within lies the balance that I seek.
Smile. Please.
I just keep looking for which is which. Which is the piece that is stupid to rail against? How do I tell the difference between that piece and the life that I want to change?
Listening to myself is helpful.
Listening to others is equally as helpful. Okay, often more helpful. Knowing who to listen to and making sure that I'm listening with my ears and heart wide open.
Specifically: I make sure that I go to professionals that I trust and have respect for and to whom I ask questions and who are willing to answer questions. Those professionals include doctors. Do you see a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist who answers your questions? Is it someone with whom you feel comfortable asking questions?
I listen to trusted friends, whom I frustrate often as I don't take their advice.
Why don't I take their advice? Why do I typically get the comment that I re-package what they say, several minutes or more after they say it?
I need to incorporate what I have heard into my life and my belief system.
A dear friend shared a statement with me recently that fits, so perfectly. Instead of paraphrasing it, let me share it with you:
Believe nothing,
no matter where you read it or who has said it,
not even if I have said it,
unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.
Talk to us about what you need for your fertility treatment. We are listening and we know that you are too.
When I read my horoscope this morning, it brought up many conversations that I've had with women over the years about how relationships fare in the midst of infertility or fertility treatment. It seems that the balance of privacy and support are always precarious and ever changing.
On the positive side for sharing our infertility journey with our friends or family, support and sympathy if not empathy are often offered. We all agreed this past weekend in our peer support group that there is often no right thing to say, that what could be right one minute, with one set of circumstances could be most unwelcome the next moment. In that sense, the simplest, quietest support from our loved ones is often the most appreciated. Someone who can listen to what we need to express and not ask too many intrusive questions.
The reasons for not sharing our fertility journey with our friends and loved ones were numerous. They came easily and quickly and included; intrusive questions, keeping information about pregnancies from us, pity, suggestions, stories about others, reasons why this is happening to us and even sharing our private information with other people.
My own personal story is that I shared the information. But as I was further into my infertility experience, I also learned that I had to set up boundaries, not only for my own sanity but for the health and welfare of those I loved. I made up rules and I handed them out. I'm not sure that I ever posted them on the blog, but they went something like this:
Sounds kind of bossy, doesn't it? I do credit that simple list with saving several friendships. Most friendships are not designed to tolerate such strict boundaries, but in fertility situation, it worked for me.
I am including my horoscope here, not because I believe that the moon and stars aligned on Saturday to determine my fate for the week, but because it speaks eloquently to the balancing issues around letting people in and keeping them out. It speaks eloquently about staying in relationships, even if you need to set up the Draconian measures that I did.
You may sense that there is a gulf growing between you and the people you care about today, and your first response may be to retreat into isolation so you can mull over this development in peace. However, doing so may actually cause the rift to open wider, as your loved ones may interpret your actions as neglectful. Consider how others will respond to your decision to seek out solitude today. If you believe that your absence may damage your relationships, you may choose to reach out to family and friends in order to explain your need for time apart. They will likely be reassured by your attentions and less apt to react badly to your need for privacy.
Often, the only way to bridge the distance that grows up between ourselves and our loved ones is to reach out. We may not always feel inclined to participate in social activities, yet we need to take the needs and desires of our loved ones into consideration before retreating into solitude. There will occasionally be times in our lives during which we feel aloof, but friends and family are in need of our company. We must weigh our own wishes against the importance of the relationships affected by our decisions. Whether or not we ultimately choose to abide by feelings of detachment will sometimes be less important than our willingness to give the people we care about due consideration at all times. However much you wish to be alone today, the love and tenderness you feel for your loved ones may keep you from seeking out isolation.
Ever wonder who you should talk to about your experiences with infertility? Who might have some insight or some helpful advice? Ever wonder if it's worth the risk of feeling a lack of privacy by sharing your struggle with a friend or family member?
Sharing this with some one close to you can feel scary. There's often a sense of embarrassment or shame, as though our reproductive organs not functioning properly reflect on who we are as men, women or people.
We are men, women and people regardless of whether our reproductive organs and systems allow us to become biological parents or not. We work, we play, we care about our friends and family, we are real people.
Sharing the burden of infertility with just one friend or family member can make the weight lighter. Picking just one person and taking a deep breath and telling them what's going on for you and allowing them to help can also make a friendship stronger.
Can you think of just one person? If you're not ready, I understand. Everything in its own time. Just please consider that your closest friends love you and care about you and while they may not say just the right thing, they can be helped by you to say what you need to hear and they can be asked not to say those things that you don't find helpful.
This is an opportunity to create stronger bonds in a friendship. An opportunity to tell the truth and give a friend a chance to hold your hand or keep you company while you're feeling pain.
Consider it.

ARCA returns to Madison International Speedway with Herr's 200
Updated On: Aug 26 2013 07:17:35 AM CDT
Ross Kenseth made his ARCA debut Sunday at Madison International Speedway in the Herr's 200.
A five-time winner at MIS, Kenseth grabbed the pole position in Saturday's qualifying, and was favored to win. He led the first 50 laps of the race, before the caution came out on lap 52. From there, 15 year old Kyle Benjamin took over.
Benjamin led the last 100 laps of the race and became the youngest to ever win an ARCA face.

He's marrying Pam and Emily Blunt.
This detail has already been made public by the show's producers, but we'll leave the decision up to you as to whether you'd like to learn more.
MacFarlane takes to YouTube to make the case that 'Family Guy' is more deserving of an Emmy than 'The Office.'
And Clairol cast 'The Office' star Angela Kinsey in the company's new ad campaign.
Not bad for a wrap-up of what was, perhaps, the show's best season.
Now that the show has wrapped up its most compelling and exhausting story arc of the last two seasons, we take a break this week … for a dance party.
Plus: Will Ferrell moves to the 'burbs.
After last week's triumph for Michael over corporate efficiency and Stringer Bell, the real world awaits him upon his return to Dunder Mifflin.
Michael Scott defeats Stringer Bell. Believe it.
With all the upheaval going on in the last few weeks, the dramatic shift in the Michael-Dwight dynamic has been hinted at but barely explored — until last night.
After Michael, seemingly out of nowhere, quit his job at Dunder Mifflin, we finally found out where this show is going in last night's two episodes.
He has a "wonderful excuse not to have to put on that stupid neck beard again."
If you like 'The Office' and hate mild spoilers, stop reading!
Well, as had been rumored all week, it's now official: Michael really has quit Dunder Mifflin.
Poor Amy Poehler; she doesn't deserve this!
Plus: why you'll never see a Lionel Richie biopic.
Charles Minor throws the whole branch into upheaval with his cold insistence on order.
'You know, my daughter would tell you that I'm a goofball.'
Fortunately, this is one of the funnier recent episodes.
Happy Valentine's Day?

Halloween is the one day of the year when the veil between the world of the living and the world of the dead is said to be lifted. It is a time to remember the dead, both loved and despised. It is a time to be scared, to be frightened, to whistle as you pass the graveyard. As by New Model Army put it so well in their song Autumn, "Everything is beautiful because everything is dying." For me, Halloween comes hard on the heels of Yom Kippur, causing the reflective, introspective mood of Rosh Hashanah to bleed into the festive, jovial if not chilling nature of All Hallows Eve. It's a good pairing and makes for a bittersweet celebration. (To clarify, I am not Jewish, I deeply feel that Rosh Hashanah's ten days of repentance and introspection about your behavior over the past year can be nothing but good for one's character. Years ago my mom and I started partaking of the holidays as a matter of self-improvement and humility.)
Usually I start my Halloween preparations on the first of October if not earlier, but with getting married, buying, painting and moving into a house, and throwing not one but two Wedding Warming parties to celebrate the aforementioned Life Changing Events, I didn't have any time or energy left to prepare for Halloween (although Rosh Hashanah did fall on my week of non-stop painting, so I had plenty of time to reflect in solemn, latext-scented silence, and believe you me, I did!). So I apologize that m smart car Halloween special wasn't a little earlier.
Getting my smart car in costume
I did have the prudence to order a costume for my smart car ahead of time! After inquiring over at smartUSAinsider's forums about attaching cat ears to my smart car's roof, Laurel directed my attention to Aerostitch's helmet ears (and tails), which are meant to be put on motorcycle helmets. After waffling over whether to get cat ears or devil horns, I decided the devil horns would be more in the spirit of Halloween. (Which is just as well, because I ended up going as a cat, anyway! We can't both be cats, now!) Plus, they look so bright and shiny!
They arrived just a few days before Halloween. They are made of cloth and are stitched onto suction cups which will attach to any smooth surface. I was worried about them flying off the smart car, but I've taken them on the highways around here, and they haven't come off yet!
Chuck Throckmomrton said he and his wife use variations on vehicular flags for their smart cars' costumes, and while the bat wings were cute, I read too many reviews of them snapping off at highspeeds to give them a second thought.
My little cat ears are flopped over in those pictures, darn it! But you get the idea.
I also found some nifty window markers at Target for about $3, which I used to write "Happy Halloween!" across my rear window, but it doesn't show very much in those photos. I keep the markers in my glove box now for doodle emergencies.
They are water soluble, though, so the wet October weather keeps removing my messages!
A DIY guide to making a Halloween wreath
I don't like buying things, especially not decorative things. When my husband and I moved into our house, I swore to give away anything I owned that I wasn't using. I passed many of my favorite clothes on to Goodwill and friends in need. I came across an old black feather boah that a childhood friend had given me. It was falling apart and too itchy to wear, so I was keeping it in a bag in the closet. Obviously, I wasn't using it, so I should get rid of it. But rather than toss the old thing, I determined to make a Halloween wreath with it! Luckily, I had a length of pretty black ribbon that had been wrapping a quilt we bought at Target. Even less waste!
You will need:
- A foam wreath base, the kind you can buy for flower arranging
- And old black feather boah
- Two yards of wide black ribbon
- Black paint and a paint brush (optional)
- A few pins or pieces of tape or glue
Start by painting your wreath base black. This is optional, but if you don't do it, theres a chance that the wreath base's color will peak through the feathers of the boah. I couldn't find my black paint, so I didn't bother, and my wreath still came out nice. But this is how I would have done it!
Halloween goodies: eCards and TV specials!
Before the day is out, don't forget to send someone you love a free vintage eCard from Dover. I love these old fashioned designs! So cute!
Lastly, it wouldn't be Halloween without nostalgic Halloween TV specials. I don't feel like today's Halloween specials are anywhere near as good as those of my childhood, but I'm sure most generations feel that way about their childhood entertainments. If you have something on par with the Roseanne Halloween marathon, I want to hear your recommendations! Please comment with them (and if you have links to Youtube vieos, please post 'em!) With that, I leave you with a personal favorite of mine, Nickelodeon's The Adventures of Pete and Pete Halloweenie special!

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Senate's top Republican says President Barack Obama must present a strategy against the extremists who are gaining ground in Iraq and could threaten the United States.
Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky says the administration must act quickly to provide the Iraqi government with assistance before, quote, "every gain made by the U.S. and allied troops is lost."
McConnell called on Obama to tell Americans how he plans to combat the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.
ISIL has conquered several cities in Syria and Iraq. The administration is sending almost 300 American forces in and around Iraq to help secure U.S. assets. Obama is considering airstrikes and other options.
McConnell offered no specifics on actions the U.S. should take or how ISIL could threaten the U.S. Republicans are sharply divided among themselves over possible military intervention.

Assessor Joseph Berrios announced Wednesday that Senior Exemption applications will be arriving in the mailboxes this week at the homes of more than 270,000 senior citizens. The Senior Exemption application also includes the income-based Senior Freeze application. This year, any homeowner born prior to, or in the year 1946, is eligible to apply. Although annual renewal has always been required for the Senior Freeze Exemption, Illinois law now requires seniors to re-apply annually for the Senior Citizen Exemption. The law went into effect last year. The Senior Citizen Exemption provides tax relief by reducing the equalized assessed valuation of an eligible residence.
Qualifications for SENIOR EXEMPTION for the taxable year 2011, the property owner must have:
Qualifications for SENIOR FREEZE EXEMPTION for the taxable year 2011 taxpayers must have:
All Senior Freeze Exemption applications must be notarized. The deadline date for applying for the Senior Exemptions is March 28th.
Eligible seniors who have never applies for the senior exemptions in the past may visit the Assessor's Web site at www.cookcountyassessor.com and download an application or contact the Assessor's office and request a form be mailed to them.

(Plans to build the roof from your materials are not available)
(not included in the kit price)
Engineered plans for the basic yurt meeting your sites requirements and floor plan design - no decks, room additions, loft or porches - start at $1000 and go up from there.
This price does not include any floor plan design/drafting work.
Some state engineers require an additonal fee for the stamped plans (usually $250) and Canada is typically $500-$600 more for their stamp.
For designing and other engineering fees please the next section below.
In order to build a set of plans we will need to know the requirements for wind, snow and seismic specific to your building site. Contact your local building department for this information.
Site specific engineering and drawings can be created for whatever design you would like. Pricing for plans that require more drafting or engineering than the basic yurt structure are created at an hourly rate, starting with the basic yurt plans price. As a guideline, a set of plans for a yurt with a simple floor plan and room addition(s) is much less than a floor plan with a basement, loft, decks/porches and additions which can run significantly more for the drafting and engineering.
Our designer/draftsman is happy to do a review of your floor plan, offer suggestions and make the desired changes. All designing/drafting is done at the rate of $75hr.
The final floor plan needs to be adherred to as it is integral to the engineering done for the structure.
At our discretion, even if a set of engineered plans are not needed for your area, we may require site/floor plan specific engineering for your yurt if the design exceeds the limits of our basic yurt engineering.
