Real Stories About Adoption And Foster Care
Share Your Story With Us
The Anderson Family
Anderson Family
All of our children came into our home as foster children. As their situations evolved we were given the opportunities to adopt them. Audra, Jon, and Heidi are biological siblings. Nate is their biological brother (although we have not adopted him, we are his family). Kyler and Chrystina are biological siblings.
We maintain contact with Kyler and Chrystina's biological mother. Kyler in particular had a strong connection to her and we feel blessed that he can maintain contact with his "first" Mom. Chrystina's biological father is from Laos and he recently taught us how to make "sticky rice" a staple in the Laotion culture.
Audra came into our home when she was nearly 5 yrs old. She has substantial developmental delays and a border line I.Q. She is a girl with a heart of gold – always willing to try and works hard.
Jonathan came into our home when he was a little over 2 yrs old. He was born with mild Spina Bifida – it has not affected his functionality at all. He is a bright - high energy boy that is active in sports.
Heidi was a year old when she came to us. She is a ray of sunshine! A warm hearted caring young woman, she likes crafts, reading and tumbling. She loves to sing.
Kyler was 3 ½ when he came to us. His biological father is from Vietnam. He had some major respiratory issues – most of which have since gone away. He has allergies and mild asthma – but that does not slow him down! He is a very high energy guy – always in motion. He has an upbeat personality and a caring soul.
Chrystina came to us when she was 18 mos. She is our Princess Diva! She is full of self confidence! She has a very caring personality and had been recognized for stepping in to help other children at school. She loves to joke and tease and laughs often. And she has a very beautiful smile!
Austin came to us when he was 18 mos. He is a high energy guy. He is very curious and tries to figure out how every thing works. If it has buttons – he's pushing 'em!
We cope with some emotional and some behavioral issues with each of our children. It's not always easy and we don't always handle every situation the "right" way. We get tired and frustrated just like everyone else – but we keep trying. Seeing the children smile when they accomplish something is the best reward!

Selection procedure
When will the selection procedure take place?
Between March and June 2014. If you are selected, we will notify you as soon as possible.
When am I a talent?
There is a difference between 'being talented' and 'being a talent'. Being talented isn't really related to age. Irving Penn was still very talented at a very old age. Being a talent normally describes someone of a young age who has outstanding skills or abilities compared to a person of roughly the same age. In Foam Magazine we always pay attention to the work of truly talented photographers, but in our annual Talent issue we present the work of artists we consider true talents. For more information please read this
blog post
of our editor.
When will the Talent issue be released?
The talent issue will be released in August 2014.
Who will be the judges?
The Foam Magazine editorial team will select entries.
Why is there a fee?
Because Foam Magazine is non-profit, the €35 that we ask to enter The Foam Talent Call goes towards producing future issues. We have a small, dedicated team that is passionate about photography and they devote a great deal of time into sourcing not just great work, but also the best way to present it. For more information please read this
blog post
of our editor.
Why is there an age limit?
To enter the Foam Talent Call, you should be between 18 and 35 years old, born between 1996 and 1979. The age limits set for the Talent Call have been created in order to focus once a year on a particular segment of photographers. This is for the simple reason that we are curious about how this generation of people look at the world and express themselves with a camera. For more information please read this
blog post
of our editor.

Wilmington College Community Summer Theatre to Present 'The Drowsy Chaperone'
Cast Selected for July Production
June 4, 2014
Wilmington College/Community Summer Theatre announces a cast of nearly two-dozen actors for the musical, The Drowsy Chaperone, to be presented July 17, 18 and 19, at 7:30 p.m., and July 20, at 2:30 p.m., in Hugh G. Heiland Theatre.
Billed as a "comedy within a musical," The Drowsy Chaperone is under the direction of summer theatre veteran Cherie Cooper-Darragh.
The cast includes: Man-in-chair, Bryan Wallingford; Mrs. Tottendale, Tricia Heys; Underling, Steven F. Haines; Robert Martin, Timothy Larrick; George: Cole Haugh; Feldzeig, Matt Purkey; Kitty, Tonja Ruther; Gangster #1, Chris Carter; Gangster #2, Jessica Cunigan; Adolfo, Tim Brausch.
Also, Janet Van De Graaff, Gina L. Beck; The Drowsy Chaperone, Mary Alexander; Trix the Aviatrix, Claudia W. Fowler, Superintendant, Bekah Muchmore; and an ensemble comprised of: Mary Rizzardi, Matty Harrison, Alexia Minton, Victoria Martini, Andrew Conarroe, Gary Smith and Tevin Amburgy.
In addition to Cooper-Darragh as director, the show features Wynn Alexander's set design with lighting design by Becky Haines, as well as Cole Haugh's choreography, musical direction by Matt Spradlin and Amy Grey serving as assistant musical director.
With the houselights down, the show begins with a man in a chair that plays his favorite record, the cast recording of a fictitious 1928 musical. The recording comes to life with the cast of characters traveling through his apartment.
Throw in two lovers on the eve of their wedding, a bumbling best man, a desperate theater producer, a not-so-bright hostess and her very proper, yet sarcastic butler, two gangsters posing as pastry chefs, a misguided Don Juan, a ditsy show girl, the intoxicated chaperone of the bride and chorus folks — and "you have a show soup dense with delicious delight."
Tickets and reservations are available by contacting the Theatre Box Office weekdays, from 9 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4 p.m., at (937) 382-6661 ext. 267.

SwiftKey Tries a New Profit Model: Offer Your App for Free
Parmy Olson of Forbes recently reported, "SwiftKey has just made a gutsy move. The popular Android keyboard app has dropped the $3.99 price tag that's driven its revenue over the last few years and is going free from here on out. It's the kind of make-or-break decision that could help it scale up in fast-growing developing markets, and in SwiftKey's case, also help it in going head-to-head with similar, free technology that Apple will soon offer to iPhone users. 'We're focused not only on reaching more users with our powerful technology, but on building great content and features to engage them,' said the company's CEO Jon Reynolds in an official statement."

Don't toss that soggy lettuce into the garbage. With the help of a bit of lemon juice you can toss it in a salad instead. Add the juice of half a lemon to a bowl of cold water. Then put the soggy lettuce in it and refrigerate for about an hour. Make sure the leaves are completely dry before putting them into salads or sandwiches.

Football, Kids, Reader Polls, Sentencing Law, State Judges
Last night, on the eve of his sentencing hearing, Jerry Sandusky, Penn State's former assistant football coach, released an audio recording from jail, and in it he continued to proclaim his innocence. This morning, it was up to the trial judge, Judge John Cleland, to dole out punishment for the man who had been found guilty on 45 of the 48 counts of child sex abuse against him.
So what did the judge decide? Let's find out….
As expected, Sandusky will likely be spending the rest of his life in jail (assuming he loses any appeals). But the sentence is nowhere near the 400 years that he could've received. From NBC News:
Former Penn State University assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky was sentenced to 30 to 60 years in prison Tuesday for abusing 10 boys he met over 15 years through his charity for troubled children.
According to ABC News, Sandusky spoke for about 13 minutes in court today. Among the many things he said, this sentence stuck out to us: "Somehow, someway, something good will come out of this." It must be time for yet another 1-800-REALITY check, because the only good thing that's going to come out of this is the fact that a known child predator will spend the rest of his days in jail.
What was your reaction to Sandusky's sentence? Did he get enough time behind bars? Let us know your thoughts in the comments, and in our reader poll:
Was Jerry Sandusky's sentence long enough?

Peter U. Murphey was born in North Carolina. Appointed from that state as a U.S. Navy Midshipman in 1834, he was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant in 1846. Murphey resigned from the U.S. Navy in April 1861 and became a Confederate States Navy officer in June of that year. In the rank of First Lieutenant, he served in Virginia and North Carolina waters in 1861-62, then was assigned to the Mobile Squadron. He commanded the gunboat CSS Morgan on Mobile Bay, Alabama, in 1862, and the gunboat CSS Selma in 1862-64. Wounded when his ship was captured in the Battle of Mobile Bay on 5 August 1864, First Lieutenant Murphy was a prisoner of war until he was exchanged in October. In May 1865, at the end of the Civil War, he surrendered to Federal authorities and was paroled shortly thereafter.
This page features our only picture of First Lieutenant Peter U. Murphey, CSN.

S Bergen Mets Looking Forward to Jupiter
Jim Ecker
Friday, September 10, 2010
Bobby Jones received a World Series ring for his service with the Boston Red Sox in 2004, but these days he's running the South Bergen Mets and hoping to win a championship ring with them as well.
South Bergen won the Northeast Qualifier No.1 at Baseball Heaven in Yaphank, N.Y., last month to earn an automatic spot in the WWBA World Championship that will be held Oct. 21-25 at the Roger Dean Sports Complex in Jupiter, Fla.
"We're very excited to go down there and compete," Jones said. "It's a great opportunity for them to shine and see what the rest of the country has to offer."
Jones formed the South Bergen Mets in 2006, just two years after his Major League career came to an end due to injury. He spent six years in the big leagues with the Colorado Rockies, New York Mets, San Diego Padres and Red Sox, compiling a 14-21 record and 5.77 ERA.
Jones had a modest major league career and appeared in only three games for Boston in 2004 when they won the Series, but he got that ring and he compiled a wealth of baseball information along the way. Now he's passing that knowledge along to his players with the South Bergen Mets.
"I'm giving them a few of the things that I learned," he said.
The Mets had a 47-14-5 record when Jones spoke to Perfect Game on Sept. 9, with the highlight coming at the Northeast Qualifier No.1when they topped a field of 32 teams.
"It's been a very good year. I can't complain," Jones said.
"I'm very proud of the guys," he continued. "They've been trying to win that tournament (the Northeast Qualifier) since they were freshmen. To see it all the way through and battle, it's a special feeling."
The Mets have players from New Jersey, Connecticut and New York on their roster this year. Most of the players will graduate from high school in 2011, but there are a few underclassmen on the club as well.
South Bergen compiled a 6-0 record at the Northeast Qualifier. The Mets outscored their six opponents, 42-10, and beat the Farrah Builders Scout Team, 5-2, in the finals.
Eric Peterson, a 6-foot-4, 190-pound outfielder/first baseman from Hackettstown, N.J., was named the Most Valuable Player of that Northeast Regional. Eric Ashworth, a 6-3, 200-pound pitcher/third baseman from Orange, Conn., was named the Most Valuable Pitcher.
Peterson hit a two-run homer when the Mets defeated Baseball U AAA, 8-4, in the quarterfinals. That game was tied, 4-4, in the bottom of the sixth inning when the Mets scored four runs, including a pair on Peterson's roundtripper.
Peterson also was named the MVP of the CABA World Series in Ohio this year.
"He's been hot all summer," said Jones.
Ashworth tossed a two-hit shutout when the Mets blanked the Philadelphia Senators, 5-0, in the semifinals. He pitched a complete game with eight strikeouts.
"He's been a joy to coach," said Jones.
The Mets will participate in the Northeast Qualifier No.2 tournament this weekend (Sept. 11-13) at Baseball Heaven in another 32-team field, but they've already punched their ticket to Jupiter. Jones attended the WWBA Championships last year with a few of his players, but now he's going back with a full team.
"I just thought it was a fabulous event," he said.

Groton - When life in the Navy was difficult, Joseph Brickhouse said he pulled through because he always had a song in his heart.
Gospel music, he said, "helped me my entire career."
Brickhouse, an ordained minister and a yeoman first class who works at Submarine Group Two, said he organized the Commander, Submarine Group Two, Black Heritage Month Gospel Choir Concert at the Seaport Community Church Saturday to bring the community together. It was the third annual event.
"Everyone has had struggles," he said. "This month we celebrate the struggles the African American race has been through and overcome."
Renee Sebastian, an alto with the choir from the Walls Temple AME Zion Church in New London, said, "Our children need to know about their ancestry."
About 150 people, a mix of military members and civilians, went to the concert to hear six choirs from southeastern Connecticut and New Jersey perform. Many stood, sang and clapped.
Lt. Roilynn Williams, a chaplain at the Naval Submarine Base, said the military is such a rigid environment, "you need an outlet where you can shout and cut loose."
"Particularly within the African American community, gospel music has been our way since slavery of expressing ourselves," she said. "It takes you out of your present reality. It's hard to describe. Gospel music is just awesome."
Louise Jaeger, of Mystic, said she went to the concert because she too, loves gospel music. Jaeger, who is 81, sang and performed in choirs for more than 70 years, she said, until she couldn't sing anymore.
The Joyful Silvertones, a male a cappella group from Summit, N.J., started off the concert with "Gospel Ship." Rod Williams, the musical director, said the performance, their first in Connecticut, was "an opportunity to inspire and motivate."
"Service members' lives can change in a moment," added Michael Miles, a tenor in the group. "It's good to know that they're going into service with one of our songs on their mind."
Rev. Milton Biggham, a Grammy award-winning artist with the Georgia Mass Choir, was the featured guest. Biggham said he served as an infantryman in the Army from 1967 to 1969, including a tour in Vietnam, so he understands what service members go through.
"They're put in harm's way so often and they need encouragement. They need strength. They need to know that we care and last, but certainly not least, they need to know that God cares," he said. "I feel like I'm an ambassador to bring that strength, that encouragement and that joy to them, for that is what gives them the strength to face tomorrow. And we don't know what our tomorrows hold."
Lt. Mark Dunning, the weapons officer at the submarine group, said spiritual music kept him going while he was at sea on submarines. Dunning said he brought his 17-year-old son, who is considering serving, to the concert to show him how supportive the military can be.
Capt. Dale Green, who represented the submarine group at the concert, said there are close ties between faith and service, and the concert is a "special, special event."

Why I'm Staying With Closed End Funds In This Market
I continue to focus on my own investing discipline as it applies to my Covestor models ( MLP, Taxable Income, Activism Profile , Long/Short Opportunistic, Core). I attempt to achieve my exposure to risk assets with Closed-End Funds and other securities where I believe there are catalysts to achieve relative price-outperformance.
Since my last broad commentary published October 1st, I've remained bullish through a lot of "noise." Perhaps more relevant, I've remained focused on less-followed securities, largely Closed End Funds. That's a bigger priority for me than anticipating moves in single stocks like Apple (AAPL) or Facebook (FB). I do not anticipate that my bread will get buttered focusing on stocks that get the attention of the talking heads. I believe trying to outsmart the broad market is often a fool's game.
While the financial sentiment being reported by journalists has improved significantly, the longer term economic backdrop continues to lack attractive liquid alternatives to risk assets. In my opinion,there may be market upside for investors who embrace equities.
Trying to trade in and out of the broad market is not something I seek to do. Market timing is for folks who think they are smarter than the market. I do tend to be less greedy when I sense others are becoming more so. But temptation to broadly take profits here would be more emotionally fulfilling than wise, I think. Emotional fulfillment rarely serves ones investing discipline. I always seek to separate emotions from investing decisions. I prefer and anticipate a rising tide that would lift most ships, my vessel included. Still, I'm going to measure myself on how my vessel performs relative to other ships.

Purim Costume Evolution: From Princess to Star Trek
Like many little girls, my daughter went through a Princess phase. I never had a problem with it. Frankly, I'm thrilled my youngest child has somehow managed to pick up a knack for those feminine graces which I incontrovertibly lack. She was Belle from "Beauty and the Beast" a couple of years running for both Purim and Halloween. That lasted up until she watched "Fiddler on the Roof" and, 15 minutes before the start of Halloween 2012, decided she now wanted to be one of Tevya's daughters, instead.
I was OK with that, too, even when she stressed that she wanted to be "the daughter that got married and had a baby," not the one "who read too many books."
This Purim, my first-grader has a new passion. Read the rest of this entry →

The future is in the East, and the United States must adapt to ensure that it can meet the challenges of the Asia-Pacific region in the 21st century.
The future of computing is being shaped by breakthroughs in many facets of the industry, but no matter the devices or the Internet services they access, all will be influenced by the computer chip. Innovations in this area will help drive advancements in others, and big names in the field are hard at work to enable emerging capabilities.
Government information technology is an area rife with issues for discussion. These include enterprise initiatives, mobile computing, the cloud in all its forms, cybersecurity and many more. However, one activity is the key to making all government information technology useful and secure: the common operating environment.
The tight coupling that currently binds Defense Department architecture—the infrastructure, communications, databases, applications, security and desktops into more than 2,200 unique silos—must be separated. Right now, each silo is the consequence of contracts in which all software is assembled into a one-of-a-kind collection of codes. The resulting software is costly to maintain; applications are not interoperable; and lack of compatibility complicates the exchange of data.
U.S. Army communications is more likely to be software-driven in the future as radios increasingly resemble specialized computers. Apps will be driving advances, and computer-like acquisition policies for radios will help speed cutting-edge technology to the field.
THE CZECH REPUBLIC IS LOOKING TO MODERNIZE its armed forces to address new capabilities, improved information technologies and greater international obligations. However, budgetary pressures and demographics threaten to derail the country's efforts to field an effective military capable of interoperating with its allies in out-of-area operations.
MOBILE TECHNOLOGIES ARE ADVANCING at a blistering pace, and the old way of communicating is being relegated to the history books. The question many government customers are asking right now is, "When do we get these new mobile platforms?" The answer might be surprising.
Jim Ramsey never dreamed he would become a leader in the satellite communications industry. He just wanted to be a soldier. But his U.S. Army superiors had other ideas. They decided to transfer him from infantry to combat support, specifically as an officer in the Signal Corps. Ramsey was anything but happy about his impending transfer in the late 1980s.
Using both technology solutions and training initiatives, the General Services Administration is assisting other federal agencies in providing easy-to-locate and clearly written information both on the Web and through other data sources.
A MARKET FOR THE NEW GENERATION of information technology tools is growing in the Czech Republic despite economic challenges taking place around the globe. Spending on security products is one area of growth, as the nation has followed the path of other countries worldwide to become more security conscious.

Ian Squires: Conservative Pie; Republicans Introduce Legislation Redefining Pi as Exactly 3
"That long-held empirical value of pi, I am not saying it should be necessarily viewed as wrong, but 3 is a lot better," said Roby, the 34-year old legislator representing Alabama's second congressional district, ushered into office in the historic 2010 Republican mid-term bonanza.
"For decades, we've all been learning that pi is this crazy 'irrational' number. And any number with no end is, not, well, it makes it really hard," Roby said. "We talked about making pi 3-and-a-third, but that wouldn't really help, because you're still then stuck with endless threes."

A collection of relevant and timely media clips and resources.

During consideration of the fiscal year 2013 Energy and Water Development Related Agencies Appropriations bill this week, U.S. Representative Alan Nunnelee (R-Miss.) offered an amendment to allow a law-abiding citizen to legally possess firearms on Army Corps of Engineers Water Resource Development lands. The amendment passed by a voice vote."NRA strongly supported this amendment as it takes a step closer toward ending the patchwork of firearm laws and regulations that govern federal lands managed by different federal agencies," said NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris W. Cox. "We would like to thank Congressman Nunnelee for his steadfast support in protecting gun owners' ability to exercise their Second Amendment rights when they are on Army Corps owned or managed land."On May 12, 2009, bipartisan legislation overwhelmingly passed the U.S. House of Representatives by a vote of 247-149, and was later enacted into law, making it legal to possess firearms for self-defense on National Park Service and National Wildlife Refuge System lands. This greatly expanded the areas in which law-abiding Americans can legally carry firearms for self-defense. However, the language didn't include millions of acres of recreational land managed by the Army Corps of Engineers. The Corps owns or manages over 11.7 million acres, including 400 lakes and river projects, 90,000 campsites and 4,000 miles of trails. Adding projects managed by the Army Corps of Engineers will not only allow law abiding citizens to protect themselves, but will relieve them from the onerous responsibility of tracking where one federal agency's land management jurisdiction ends and another begins.

My Price:
There are a lot of people on this site who teach lessons; I've looked through profiles...and their prices. Many of them do not have degrees in music and/or their lessons are expensive. I am a professional musician and educator with the lowest rates I can afford. My pricing is low to be competitive and does not in any way reflect the quality of the lesson. I believe good lessons should be affordable to everyone at a weekly basis.

I have taught general music K-8 in a charter school and basically had to build a music program with no funding and almost no supplies. I left this job in favor of teaching privately because the staff and administration were horribly disrespectful and unappreciative of what I did for their school. Teaching privately ...
Phoenix is one of the great secrets of the music industry. Other cities get the glory, but Phoenix has held strong in producing its own music legends. Did you know Stevie Nicks was born in Phoenix? So was pop phenomenon Michelle Branch. Even Alice Cooper received his musical education in Phoenix and started his first band here. The city is also home to many successful alternative bands, including Jimmy Eat World and Gin Blossoms.
With such a rich tradition, Phoenix music lessons can help you become the next musician to take the stage. And thatâs where TakeLessons comes into play.
The idea of TakeLessons is easy: recruit talented local musicians who want to share their knowledge and technique, and then connect them with students who want to take their skills to the next
level. Lessons are customized for your individual needs, and your first lesson is risk-free with our 100% Money Back Guarantee.
Simply search here on the website for local teachers, or call 877-231-8505 to speak with one of our friendly representatives. We have several lesson types available, including music theory, performance techniques, music recording and voice lessons. Instruments are covered as well, including guitar, bass, drums and percussion, piano and violin.
Find your perfect music teacher with TakeLessons, and you might become the latest legendary music act to emerge from Phoenix. Get started today!
"Steven is very professional and extremely helpful. He always has a smile on and is serious about helping you phrase the music. I would highly recommend him to anyone."
"It's been really exciting so far! Jordan has been so helpful, so knowledgeable. I could not have found a better instructor and I'm getting better and better every day."
"My daughter's wedding was weeks away and I had never been able to dance a step. With Jenny's help, I came further than ever before in such short time in any subject."

text: Led by team co-captains Lisa Drennan '09 (#7, main photo by Bill Burkhart) and Ellie Healy '10 (#10, photo insert lower left), the Cardinals have good reason to expect outstanding results when the 2008 season unfolds. Drennan, one of the most decorated Wesleyan players in history, is a two-time all-NESCAC and all-New England performer who also received honorable-mention AVCA All-America laurels in 2007 after finding herself as the NESCAC Player of the Year in 2006. She has ranked among the top-five nationally in kills per game the last two seasons. Healy was a second-team all-NESCAC choice from her setter spot in 2007, averaging 11.42 assists per game. Wesleyan also returns starting middle hitter Ashley Farrow '10 as well as the talented starting libero Ruby Hernandez '11. Anna Williams '09 is back as a defensive specialist, having played in every game during the 2007 campaign. In total, the Cardinals have 10 returning letterwinners and eight additional newcomers to fashion a squad that will challenge for NESCAC supremacy. Last year's squad was 17-8 overall and 6-4 in NESCAC play. The 2006 squad was 19-9 and 7-3 in the conference. The Cardinals inaugurate the 2008 season by hosting the NESCAC/NEWMAC challenge Fri. and Sat, Sept. 5-6. Wesleyan opens Friday against NESCAC rival Williams, a perennial regional power which captured the NESCAC tournament title last season, before facing NEWMAC powers Coast Guard and Wellesley on Saturday.

December 22, 2014
MOSCOW (AP) - Russia's President Vladimir Putin says his sacked former defense minister isn't facing charges and may get a new official job.
Putin unexpectedly fired Anatoly Serdyukov this month amid a military corruption scandal focused on the suspicious sale of military assets.
Putin said Friday that Serdyukov lost his job over "doubts about his ability to oversee property issues." But he added that Serdyukov would not be blacklisted.
He says, "We aren't in 1937," referring to the peak year of Soviet dictator Josef Stalin's purges.
Some observers believe the dismissal was likely rooted in a battle over 20 trillion rubles ($635 billion) that the Kremlin plans to spend on weapons through 2020. Serdyukov was demanding higher quality and cheaper prices, angering Kremlin-connected industry leaders.

Getting a magazine (or two) in the mail each month can be so exciting. But paying an arm and a leg for a subscription is absolute nonsense. That's why I don't anymore!
I used to just dream about magazines, and then I started subscribing to them. I paid way too much for some of my subscriptions. I thought I was getting the best deal by going to the magazine's website. It turns out that is not always the best deal. While some magazine's websites sometimes do offer the best deal, it doesn't hurt to check elsewhere for a better deal.
There are tons of sites that sell magazines for much cheaper than the newsstand price, but I wouldn't trust most of them. Two sites that you can trust are Amazon and MagCloud.
These are two very different sites. Amazon sells magazine subscriptions for popular magazines that you see on the newsstand for a fraction of the price. Their rates change quite often. So when you see a magazine you like for a great price, you should buy it. Just yesterday, Amazon offered a year subscription of Marie Claire for $5.00. That's pretty awesome! (Too bad I missed my chance.)
As for MagCloud, it offers magazines that aren't available on newsstands. Anyone can make the magazines that are on this site, but some of them are really awesome. And many of them offer free downloads. I trust this site because I've used it before. I made my own magazine, and I've downloaded tons of other magazines. You can also purchase print copies from this site, and they are really high quality. As long as you have a PDF viewer, you can get digital copies on your computer. This is a great way to read magazines for free.
I trust both of these sites for high quality magazines at great prices.
Do you get any magazines? Where do you get them from?

Warning: This story series contains descriptions of physical abuse.by Tess WilloughbyPart Two: The Legal AftermathI fled to the farm where I grew up and spent several weeks just trying to get the fuzz out of my head. I went to the doctor, who diagnosed Abi with failure to thrive. I supplemented her with formula but continued to breastfeed, because for once I had the luxury of breastfeeding by my own lights, and I intended to enjoy it. I moved six kids, 9 years old and under, in with my mom and dad, who were absolute angels about it. I do not remember either of them complaining even once.What were Tess's long-term plans?

Tea Party Family Values and the World's Greatest Freak Show
On fundamentalist counterculture & juvenile black market adoption fantasies ... by Vyckie Garrison @ No Longer QuiveringDo you remember when it first dawned on you that your relatives are all a bunch of crackpots and weirdos? Seems like I was around 8 or 9 — my mother worked all night in the casinos and slept most of the day, leaving me alone to protect my naïve older sister from the depraved advances of Mom's alcoholic boyfriends and worry about my big brother's drug addiction. I couldn't count on my grandparents to help — they were too preoccupied with their own divorce, dating, and remarriage dramas."Holy sugar," I thought to myself, "these people are seriously messed up!" … [Read more...]

It was a gorgeous morning, crisp azure sky with nothing but the blissful autumn sunshine overhead. Not even a cloud. I pulled into the church parking lot, sunroof back and something along the lines of Green Day blaring. I arrived at the office early, unlocking the door and booted my computer, prepping to attend to the stack of projects that pastors needed completing.

The Beautiful Girlhood Doll ~ Part 9: The Broken Doll
by Libby AnneSoon after this rethinking of my parents' beliefs, I returned home from college for a semester break more worried than I have ever been in my life. What were my parents going to think about my new beliefs on evolution, the Bible, the pro-life movement, and female equality? For a few weeks I said nothing, afraid of what would happen when I did. But the longer I listened to my parents praising me for my steadfast beliefs and condemning evolution and liberal college professors the more I realized I couldn't hide my changes in belief. And so I told them. I was used to being only praised and affirmed, so telling my parents about my changing beliefs was probably the hardest thing I … [Read more...]
The Beautiful Girlhood Doll ~ Part 8: Out of the Doll House & Into the Real World
by Libby AnneAnd then I left for college. College had always been one of my parents' expectation for me, and I've never seen them as proud as they were at my homeschool graduation. With my parents' approval, I chose a secular college because I wanted to witness to others and make a difference in the world. I had been taught that I was to be a culture changer, shouldn't I start now? My parents approved of this choice because they believed I was ready.Of course, I believed my role was to be a wife and mother, but no one had appeared to seek my hand and my parents, both college educated themselves, had never shaken the idea that a college degree is important. I would graduate from college, … [Read more...]

One time during sophomore year of high school my science teacher brought in dry ice, and some dummy in my class burned his hand on it. We were all pretty much 35-year-olds at the time, so I don't remember what our teacher was trying to teach us with dry ice, and more importantly I have no idea how someone could've been such a dummy to TOUCH the dry ice and injure himself. Ugh. BOYS. "Highschool boys," right? Just forever the dumbest. Anyway my point is, the kids in this video sound like they're much younger than we were at that time and it looks like none of them were injured during this very dangerous looking science lesson. So. BRAVO! Unless the cut-outs of the pumpkin flew into some of their faces, disfiguring them for the rest of their lives, and we don't see it just because the video ends. That may absolutely be the case! It looks like that may be the case. I hope you're ok, kids! Happy Halloween!
BOOM GOES THE PUMPKINMITE! (Via LaughingSquid.)

I was recently married this past Halloween 2008. I wanted a simple and small but beautiful ceremony. I LOVED what I decided on. My husband and I met about 15 friends and family members down at the grassy area a couple of miles past the Tin Cannery. Ocean just behind us, we could hear the waves crashing. We met about 30 minutes before sunset and the pictures turned out great. The sky was beautiful. I wore a sleeveless halter dress and I wasn't cold at all. October is a great month to marry in Monterey. Anyone looking for a stress free beautiful day this is the way to go.
