Health Insurance
Health Insurance is a minefield – in terms of what's covered, what's not covered, the jargon that surrounds the convoluted titles that insurers place on their plans and that's before you start trying to decide which plan offers your family the best value for money in a sector where the cost of insurance is rising year on year. There are some pitfalls you can avoid to ensure you're not paying over the odds. Sean spoke to Dermot Goode, General Manager of Cornmarket Health Insurance who gave an outline on the complicated health insurance landscape.http://www.rte.ie/radio1/today-with-sean-o-rourke/programmes/2014/0106/496158-today-with-sean-o-rourke-monday-6-january-2014/?clipid=1388583

CSUN students hit by vehicle near campus
A man mistaking a turn arrow for a green light struck two CSUN students with his car on the corner of Zelzah Avenue and Prairie Street Thursday.
Collision investigator Kirby, of the Valley Traffic Division, said the man was driving southbound on Zelzah.
Kirby said the students may have had on dark clothes, which made it difficult for the driver to see them.
The students, a male and female, are in stable condition and have been transferred to separate hospitals. The male student suffered a broken leg.
No arrests were made and the driver and his passenger suffered no injuries.

Finance Expert Robin Gersbeck Takes On The Established Car Sales Industry and Launches Australia's Number 1 Car Broker
Robin Gersbeck says: "It never ceases to amaze me that the methods we used back in those days of the 80's are still being employed in dealerships today. It's almost as though there is a time warp. The buildings have become more modern and the cars have gotten better but the sales tactics and methodologies are largely the same. The industry is still full of cut throat sharks"
These days there are few alternatives for the "would be" car buyer. They can do the rounds of dealership after dealership and face constant pressure to commit or they can use one of many online portals that provide an efficient yet impersonal mechanism for the savvy, persistent consumer to purchase a vehicle. Either way, the buyer needs to invest vast amounts of time and energy to the process and still never really knows if they are getting a good price.
US News and World agrees: "Problems with new-car dealers consistently rank near the top of the Better Business Bureau's list of consumer complaints. Many dealerships are staffed with salespeople trained to tack on as many unnecessary costs as possible, such as extended warranties that offer minimal coverage and add-ons (such as a GPS) that are already installed. Worries about getting the right deal affect nearly all car shoppers."
Although car brokers are common in the United States, it's a new phenomenon in Australia. Car brokers offer many advantages to a buyer. It's a personal service where the buyer can talk with someone interested in helping them get the best outcome. They can communicate their preferences and they don't need to spend weekends looking or get away from work early to see another car for sale. A car broker will often tender out the buyers requirements and preferences ensuring an open bidding system that result in the buyer getting the best price possible. And car brokers don't charge the consumer for their services as they get paid a small "spotter's fee" by the winning seller.
As Gersbeck says: "We get up to 7 quotes, and so we are very confident we will get the best deal that is available in your city on the day you make the request. It's quite amazing; the prices that sometimes come back."
For the car buyer tired of industry games or just wanting someone else to do all the hard, time consuming work, and looking for a great deal, a car broker make an enormous amount of sense.

James Hoegh's mission to go faster than 168.912 mph on a naked bike on the Bonneville Salt Flats has met success. Hoegh traversed the salt during the BUB Motorcycle Speed Trials at 172.211 mph, entering the books in the APF3000 class as the rider on the world's fastest big block American V-twin.
The prototype X132 Hellcat Combat ran with the 132-cubic-inch S&S XWedge engine used in the retail Hellcat, given a knife's-edge tune and plenty of performance bits so it could push through the air faster than any other.
There are three ways to follow in Hoegh's footsteps: break the record yourself, buy one of the limited-production-run Combat Hellcats that Confederate says will be coming next year, or become a physical therapist, which is Hoegh's day job. While you decide, there's a video chronicling the achievement below.

The Google Lounge has a front lawn, complete with chairs and beanbag games.
Updated: September 5, 2012 3:58PM
When you're not actually conventioning at the Democratic National Convention, there are a number of one-week-only options within blocks of the Time Warner Cable Arena.
You can drink a beer from a CNN logo glass at the CNN Grill.
You can play beanbags near the "front lawn" of the Google Lounge.
You can get a cocktail and say hello to Charlie Rose at the Bloomberg Link lounge.
Or maybe get a little blueberry pie with Al Sharpton at the MSNBC headquarters.
A number of media entities have taken over local establishments and turned them into TV studios — and restaurant/bar/lounges. The CNN Grill is normally a Mexican cantina. When the convention is over, Bloomberg will dismantle their sleek digs like a scene out of a modern-day version of "The Sting," and Gold's Gym will be back in business.
Each night, the CNN Grill is packed to the rafters with politicians, delegates and reporters. On Tuesday alone, the guest roster included Jeff Bridges, Rep. Barney Frank, Adrien Grenier, Patricia Arquette, Anderson Cooper, Rev. Jesse Jackson and Rosario Dawson. As patrons chowed down on the free food and enjoyed cold beer or wine, Piers Morgan conducted his nightly show in one, extremely well-lit corner of the bar.
It was like watching CNN on TV in a bar while being inside the TV. As well as the bar.
To nobody's surprise, the Google setup is the quirkiest, from the grown-up playground furniture inside to the bright exterior, painted in Google home page colors. The Google self-driving car is parked outside on the plastic turf lawn, and there are a couple of Google logo beanbag games set up in the parking lot.
An executive with one of the networks that has erected a makeshift headquarters told it cost "a lot" (no specifics), but the investment is worth it, what with the lounge being a magnet for elected officials, Hollywood celebs and well-known reporters.
Not to mention the free publicity to be gained from guys like me that write or talk about it.

Bill Moyers: Thomas Frank and Mother Jones on the Vast, Corrupting Power of Money in Politics
The following is a transcript of an episode of Moyers & Company.
When it comes to the vast, corrupting influence of money in politics, historian Thomas Frank has sounded the alarm loudly and often. In " It's a Rich Man's World," one of his recent essays for Harper's Magazine, Frank writes, "Over the course of the past few decades, the power of concentrated money has subverted professions, destroyed small investors, wrecked the regulatory state, corrupted legislators en masse, and repeatedly put the economy through the wringer. Now it has come for our democracy itself."
Bill talks with Frank about the power of concentrated money to subvert democracy.
Frank's book, "What's the Matter with Kansas?" was a best seller and his latest, "Pity the Billionaire," asks how Tea Partiers and their allies can make heroes of the rich and mighty who ran us into a ditch.
Bill Moyers: This week on Moyers & Company...
Thomas Frank: We have just come through this sort of extraordinary real world demonstration of the folly of our financial system, of all the stuff that we've been doing, the deregulation of the last 30 years, the setup of the Federal Reserve system, however you want to put it, it has all failed us.
Bill Moyers: And...
Monika Bauerlein: You no longer really have one person, one vote. You have one person, one vote, one million dollars.
Clara Jeffery: So essentially you can create the regulatory landscape that you want if you can, essentially, buy elections.
Bill Moyers: Welcome. If you're visiting a candidate this summer and looking for a thoughtful house gift, might we suggest a nice super PAC? Thanks to the Supreme Court and Citizens United, they're all the rage among the mega-wealthy. All it takes is a little paperwork and a wad of cash and presto, you can have, as "The Washington Post" describes it, a "highly customized, highly personalized" political action committee.
It's easy –super PACs come in all amounts and affiliations. You don't have to spend millions, although a gift that size certainly won't be turned aside. Cable TV tycoon Marc Nathanson got a super PAC for his friend, longtime Democratic Congressman Howard Berman from California, and all it cost was $100,000. Down in North Carolina, Republican congressional candidate George Holding received a handsome super PAC that includes $100,000 each from an aunt and uncle and a quarter of a million from a bunch of his cousins. Yes, nothing says family like a great big, homemade batch of campaign contributions.
George Holding: 2012 is the most important election we're ever going to have.
Bill Moyers: You can start a super PAC on your own or contribute to one that already exists. Super PACs are available for every kind of race – presidential, congressional or statewide. But there are other ways you can help buy an election. Look at the Wisconsin recall campaign of Republican Governor Scott Walker. At least fourteen billionaires rushed to Walker's side. He outraised his Democratic opponent by nearly eight to one. Most of his money came from out of state. More than sixty million dollars were spent, and $45 million of it for Walker alone. Here are just a few of the satisfied buyers:
Wisconsin billionaire Diane Hendricks contributed more than half a million dollars on Scott Walker's behalf. Fearful the United States might become "a socialistic ideological nation," she's an ardent foe of unions – and against, in her words, "taxing job creators." True to her aversion to taxes, she paid none in 2010, despite being worth, according to "Forbes Magazine," about $2.8 billion dollars. Before he launched his crusade against the collective bargaining rights of working people, Governor Walker held this conversation with Diane Hendricks.

Production 35ft Fast Cruising Cat
Designed by John Shuttleworth
This 35ft catamaran exemplifies the new generation of performance cruising multihulls. Designed and engineered with the latest thinking on structures and computer designed hull forms, the boat is nevertheless suited for skilled amateur construction. The first production version is currently under construction in Canada by Eugene Tekatch, who built the Tektron 50.
The Tektron 35 has been developed from a previous 35ft cat, and the highly successful Spectrum 42, 44, and of course the Tektron 50. The 42,s now have several ocean passages behind them, and the features of exceptional pitch damping and bow slightly raised on a reach have been well tried and tested, and have proven to be outstanding features in improving general cruising comfort at sea, along with greater safety and fine seakeeping qualities. ( Ref 1) (Ref 2)
One of the main aims of this new design was to produce a boat with comfortable living accommodation space, with as little sacrifice as possible to sailing performance, windward ability, and seakeeping qualities of this well proven type of hull form.
Apart from the great benefits that can be derived from flaring the hull above the waterline, in terms of keeping the bow up on a reach, the flare gives a massive increase in interior volume without increasing the windage of the hulls at all. For instance, above the waterline the hull flares outwards to give a maximum beam at eye level of 1.95m, the impression of space is tremendous and cannot possibly be matched by any similar length catamaran whose topsides rise almost parallel from the waterline.
Construction and long term fatigue
By using integrated structural techniques the hull weight can be carefully controlled and the net effect is a strong, light displacement hull with a good long term fatigue life. Light weight with high strength pays in a cruising design because the weight saving can be translated into payload capacity. The Tektron 35 will weigh 2.4 tons in racing trim, with a further payload capacity of 2 tons.
Construction is Airex foam sandwich with glass fibre skins and a limited amount of Kevlar in the inner skin of the hull bottom for impact resistance. Carbon fibre in the main beam ensures that the boat is stiff enough to maintain a straight forestay which is essential when the headsail sheeting angles are as low as 6 degrees.
Hull Aerodynamics and Hydrodynamics
The whole boat has been designed with a very rounded form, and the cockpit and crossbeam structure areas as aerodynamically clean as possible. All the deck edges have generous curves. The flare in the hull creates the interior volume needed for comfortable cruising, without increasing the frontal area at all. Forward the deck edge is significantly less rounded than the amidships to make it easier to move around on the foredeck, but as the hull profile rises the radius increases to reduce the coefficient of drag as much as possible.
The hull and deck are designed on the computer using computer graphics and 3D modelling techniques. The computer is able to draw sections through the boat at any angle, i.e. in the direction that the wind strikes the boat. This is of great assistance in allowing us to see the lines of air flow as the wind would actually hit the topsides of the hull. To confirm and develop these ideas,we arranging to test a number of catamaran models in a wind tunnel within the next 3 months, in order to arrive at accurate figures for the aerodynamic drag of the hulls, and to relate our computer modelling to real results.
A wing mast has been designed as standard even though this is a cruising boat. I feel that the wing is very simple to operate, and allows a self taking jib on a very efficient clean rig. Tacking becomes a pleasure when the only thing you do is turn the wheel - no sheets to winch - no flogging lines, just turn and away you go. The windward sail plan is the high aspect ratio jib and fully battened mainsail, with a large genoa for off the wind speed, and light winds. In a storm the wing can be used as a storm jib, or it can be tied down to stop the boat. Eugene Tekatch proved that this can be a very successful way of handling a cat in a storm while on the Tektron 50 in severe gales of Bermuda.
The most significant change in the interior from our previous designs of this type, is that the saloon has been moved to the stern of the starboard hull, with the galley amidships. This has been achieved by increasing the flare at the aft end of the boat. Of course this also makes a huge aft double berth in the port hull. The intention of the layout is that the daytime activities are carried out in the starboard hull, while sleeping accommodation is primarily in the port hull. If you have children aboard, they can be happily asleep while you are with friends in the saloon. Also there is much more opportunity to have some privacy on a long voyage. A feature which I personally found to be very pleasant on a voyage on 'Toucan' (a Spectrum 42).

Hello my dear followers.
Hello my dear followers.
Disclaimer: Sorry all English speaking people, but this journal is for people living in my country only.
Cerams ka vismaz kāds no maniem sekotājiem šeit ir arī no šīs valsts un vēl nezin, kas īsti ir ClubLatvia . Ja ir vismaz viens (yay!), tad ļauj man tev pastāstīt.
ClubLatvia ir DeviantART Latviešu mākslinieku kopiena. Visdažādāko mēdiju mākslinieki no visdažādākajām vietām, kuri pat dažreiz, reizi 1-2 mēnešos (dažreiz pat biežāk) satiekas kopā dzīvē, parasti Folkklubā "Ala" lai papļāpātu par visdažādākajām lietām, mākslu, spēlēm, filmām, u.t.t. Notiek galda spēles un kollabi. Vārdu sakot, es vēlētos lai tu, šī žurnāla raksta lasītājs, padomātu, varbūt ir labāk nevis sēdēt mājās, bet satikt jaunus cilvēkus kam kopīgas intereses !
Pats eju uz Devmītiem jau aptuveni no 2012. gada vasaras. Pirmā reize bija diezgan bailīgi, bet tomēr jautri ir bijis vienmēr, tāpēc esmu turpinājis apmeklēt šos devmītus. Nākamais, kas norisināsies 7. Decembrī gan varētu būt mans pēdējais uz kādu laiku, jo ja viss izdosies kā plānots, tad jau Ziemassvētkus svinēšu Norvēģijā kur pavadīšu vismaz nākamos 3 mēnešus.
Ja ir interese, tad 7. Decembrī pulksten 14:00 būs bariņš (cerams bariņš) cilvēku pie Laimas pulksteņa. Vairāk informācijas var atrast šeit: clublatvia.deviantart.com/jour…;
It is simply amazing, you would all agree with me, right?
And the artists name?
AzyoMecha , also known as Ainars Septembergs (Pseudoname).
She's a very skilled artist with a very unique and interesting style and a wide range of different works. From Bioshock
to My little Pony
And loads of other stuff. Go check out her gallery!
She's not accepting commissions at the moment, but that only means that you need to follow her here, on DeviantART, Tumblr and even FurAffinity. Oh, and don't forget Twitter too. Just so you can see more art coming from her, which will always be amazing (100% guaranteed) and see when she opens up her commissions!
I guess I have a lot to say and nobody to really say it to, so I'll just say it here. I just need some place to vent (haha, get that picture now?) and when I tried to do it with my friends, they started to draw comparisons with Sad Larry from Cyanide&Happiness. It makes me feel pretty shitty when I remind people of Sad Larry only because I wanted somebody to vent to...
Anyway, I'm back from BUCK 2013! Yaaay! It was a very, very fun trip, I'd have to say most fun I've had in my 23 years of life. The MLP:FiM convention itself wasn't nearly as much important for me as it was meeting my friends who I so far have only seen through Skype video-chat screens. It was such a pleasant feeling (a bit awkward at first though) and everyone's so awesome I don't think I really have any words to describe it all. The whole thing was so awesome, that I completely forgot to use my camera at all during the whole thing, only a little bit during the Summer Sun Celebration, which was a brony music concert before the convention. The SSC was awesome.
The convention and the trip was so awesome that I guess as soon as I returned home and was immediately faced with all these problems we have it felt so much heavier and harder to take them. It almost felt like a blow to the head with a baseball bat or an empty bottle (I know how that feels and it's painful, very very painful).
Now, remember everyone, I'm not asking for any help whatsoever. I just needed to vent. First problem was that we found out we're missing 92 LVL (roughly 130 euros) from my dad's bank account. We already went to the bank and they said they can't help it, so we'll try the company that shows up in the transaction results and hope, really really hope they give us back the money. We're a family that is financially struggling, so 130 euros is roughly over half a months budget for us. But as they say in Latvia, bad luck doesn't come alone. A few days ago my mom tripped and injured her foot. Luckily, nothing was broken, though I don't know why I said luckily, since it might've been better if some bone was broken than the tendons being ripped apart. She needs to rest at home for AT LEAST a month, which means only 75% of wage during medical leave and no money at all for the first 3 (or 5?) days, which leaves the 4 of us with roughly 30-40 euros for the whole month before the month has even started.
It is a serious though nuggies situation right now.
But it's all right, I've found a solution. My mom wanted to go back to job next week already with the whole injured foot (which could result in the foot getting fucked up for the rest of her life), so this is really my only option. I'm going to sell my camera and my lenses to pay off all bills and buy food for us this month. Or at least try, since my camera isn't worth THAT much anymore. But it does effectively mean I'm giving up on art. I don't know if permanently or only temporarily until I will be mysteriously able to find a job and afford a new one... But you won't be able to see anything from me for at least a couple of years that's for sure.
Aaaaand that's it I guess.
Oh, I also did lose my hat during the trip to Manchester. It was the deviantART I.D. box hat and I loved it so much :< . The BUCK staff members did find it, but at this point I can't really afford the 3.50£ to ship it back to me.
Anyway, thanks for listening to me vent, if anyone even got this far. I appreciate it. I needed this. Thanks.
I just took few new photos and put them in Tumblr and wanted to share with you here.
Leave comments here if you want to see any one of my art piece on Tumblr here (not just from this photoset), in DeviantART. I still can't decide which one to put here and which one not to...
Update: There's just one day left for voting. It would be awesome to get all of your help !
Update 2: Voting is closed.
See ya there!

Tourism in Ptah Temple
The Temple of Ptah lies across the first court of the great Amun temple, just by the enclosure wall and the portal which leads to the precinct of Montu. Interestingly, the temple is in excellent condition with some of the finest carvings of all of Karnak. It comprises five gateways decorated with relief depicting kings with the double crown on their heads. Passing through the gateways, one gets into a small courtyard and a narrow transverse hall. There are three shrines open to the transverse hall, two of which are dedicated to god Ptah and the other to goddess Hathor. The temple consists of three sanctuaries that are of Ptah, Sekhmet and Nefertum, the three deities forming the Triad of Memphis. In the most sacred sections of the temple, there are two statues of Ptah and his wife Sekhmet...Read More

Silent Technology™
No special equipment needed. Any CD home player, walkman, stereo, mono earphones, pillow speakers, O.K.
Educators all agree - the key to any learning strategy is repetition. Repetition of the information that we wish to learn or absorb. Then why don't we all just repeat information or affirmations to ourselves all day long until it is internalised.
The reason of course is boredom.
Imagine you could reprogram your mind without the boredom of hearing constant repetitions of the conditioning you want to achieve. Imagine you switch on your CD player wherever you are and 'listen' to information ALL DAY LONG (and ALL NIGHT for that matter) without getting bored, because YOU can't hear it.
But YOUR subconscious CAN.
You don't even need to pay attention, you can go about your daily tasks, relax or even go to sleep.
This system broadcasts recorded information directly to your subconscious WITHOUT the need to hear what is being said.
No matter how unobtrusive or pleasant a subliminal mask may be, eventually it becomes boring and too repetitive to listen to anymore.
Silent Technology™ utilizes the ability of the subconscious to hear what the conscious cannot, to offer an effective and powerful new way to communicate with our inner-selves. You can now go about you daily business and BE SURE that you are receiving your DAILY DOSE of re-programming or learning.
Start programming your mind for success - SILENTLY!
Thousands Of Satisfied
Sleep Learning Programs
Unleash the hidden power of your subconscious mind.
All our CD's can be used either awake, relaxed or asleep.
Although all our CD's contain powerful innovative technology that will create lasting changes, their power is maximised when used as part of a sleep learning program regime.

CarraKlenz Cleanser is for sale and available from our online store. VitalityMedical.com is the place to purchase
Carrington Cleansers & Debriders.
CarraKlenz Wound Cleanser, manufactured by, Carrington is a wound cleanser designed for the gentle cleaning of all types of wounds with small, medium or high exudate.
Wound care can go past the usual application of dressings and ointments. Wounds need to be kept clean as well. Keeping wounds clean can be a painful process with chemicals that can sting and irritate the wound. CarraKlenz Wound Cleanser is a non-irritating solution that removes organic material, debris, and dead tissue from the wound.
CarraKlenz Wound Cleanser is available for SALE from Vitality Medical and features a no rinse type formula. This makes it possible to clean wounds when rinsing is not convenient. This wound cleanser also contains emulsifying ingredients which provides a protective layer to the wound helping to keep moisture from evaporating away. If moisture evaporates while the wound is healing it can cause scabbing which can result in more noticeable scarring. Using this wound cleanser applies a protective layer which can help speed up the healing process.
Spray wound cleansers use a pressurized system to spray the solution onto the wound. This can be quite painful for the patient if the pressure is too high. The CarraKlenz Wound Cleanser is within the optimum PSI range of 12 PSI with a 6 inch distance. To put this in perspective a can of aerosol spray is in general around 80 PSI and this wound cleanser's PSI is less than 1/5 of that. Safe and effective this wound cleanser is latex free and does not delay wound healing. BUY CarraKlenz Wound Cleanser from Vitality Medical today.
CarraKlenz Wound Cleanser Features and Benefits
CarraKlenz Wound Cleanser Specifications
THis is just the best stuff ever for keeping wounds clean, and doing a change of bandages. First saw it in the hospital when my mother was ill, and now I am using it all the time for cleansing and refreshing before rebandaging.
So glad to have found this online..This product is soothing and healing, I use it for leg ulcers and any other wound cleansing. Can't say enough on how fast this heals on a regular basis. Thanks you Vitality Medical for your prompt service.

Why You Should Join a Small Business Craft Community
I'm a small business owner, I run a small business group, I'm an organizer for an upcoming creative small business conference and have an eleven month old, but I still make time to be active in my crafting community.
Each month I meet up with other artists and crafters and we discuss various topics about our small businesses. These conversations have given me new insight into my line and new ideas on how to best manage my business. But it's more than the topics we cover, it's the sense of community that keeps me coming back.
Running your own crafting business can be a lonely experience. However, when you have a group of people that understand your struggles and can share in your victories, you gain the confidence and enthusiasm to move forward and grow your business.
Although it may seem obvious that there are many benefits to joining a crafting community, there are many reasons why artists and crafters do not join. For example:
- They don't know what a small business crafting community looks like or how to find them
- The topics don't seem to apply to their business
- They can't find a community that feels like the right fit for them
- It just takes too much time away from their already hectic schedule
Well, I am here to dispel these reasons for not joining a group and to encourage you to start searching now for a small business craft community in your city!
A small business craft community can look like a group of business owners that get together monthly to discuss their goals or cover a different business topic each month or it can be a more formal group with classes. The best resource I have found is Meetup.com...all you need to do is type in a search for small business, arts, or crafts and see what you find.
Or maybe even think about starting a new meetup group yourself. Maybe you have a few friends in similar situations or you had a good chat with another vendor at a craft fair...just reach out to them and see if they want to meet up once a month to talk about business goals.
Maybe you found a group on Meetup but just aren't sure the topics will be right for you or even the right fit. Sometimes it's not the topics that are the most important thing about the group, but the people you meet and how you can help each other. It may take a few meetings to get to know people, but once you do, these meetings provide amazing opportunities to discuss the issues you face and for others to bring new light to your challenges.
I always feel like my schedule is so busy, but I still make a plan to attend my small business group the third Wednesday evening of every month. I go even if I don't think the topic pertains to me because the topics force me to spend time and energy where I wouldn't normally...and this can be a great spark for a new idea! The gains of joining a group far outweigh the limited amount of time that is actually cut into your schedule.
Many of us spend a great deal of time reading blogs, commenting, watching videos, reading eCourses. These are all wonderful tools, although meeting someone in person and sharing ideas, stories and inspiration is one that can't be beat!
Do you need help in finding your community? Join us at the School House Craft Conference September 23 - 25 in Seattle. There will be classes for the crafty small business person as well as time to meet up with others who may be looking to join a new crafting community too!
Andrea Porter along with her husband owned and operated Bluebottle Art Gallery and Store in Seattle from 2002 – 2010. Bluebottle built a reputation for being at the forefront of the DIY indie art, craft and design movement. In 2010 Andrea moved full time to focusing on building the Matthew Porter Art line. The line features her husbands children's books, prints and other gift goodies. She currently is on the organizing committee of Grassroots Business Association and the School House Craft Conference.

Oh – I am so glad you stopped by!
Welcome to our home.
I know you have so many places to get to today, but I hope you can come in for a quick visit.
Come on in…
First we have our living room/dining room area. Thank goodness for Tackle It Tuesday, or else you would not be able to see our lovely dining room table. It sometimes doubles as a scrapping area and has been known to be covered for months in scrap stuff. (I do have an area in the basement, but sometimes it just creeps up here.)
Next we have our "great room." Nowadays, houses around here are being built with rooms that include kitchen and living space. Here we have our main living area. This place can quickly look like a tornado ripped through with the high traffic it gets. The family room, which has the colored squares covering our hardwood floor, is Jackson main play area, complete with his own table.
To the left, you can see my "work space" at the kitchen table. (For you Tacklers – look closely – it is still clean!) We have an office area upstairs, but I prefer to work down here in the middle of the action. Eventually we will enclose the upstairs open office area and turn it into another bedroom.
I love my work area – during the day it is so inspiring with the trees and sunlight. (This picture was taken for a Tackle post.)
And the kitchen is in here too. It is wonderful to have it all together. I can cook or clean the kitchen while watching Jackson play, or if after his bedtime, even watch some TV. I love it!
Downstairs we have another playroom – it used to have a pool table but we gave it to a friend so Jackson could have a place to play hockey etc during our long, rainy fall and winter.
Our bedrooms are upstairs, but we won't bother going up there today. (You may have seen Jackson's room and our bathroom in previous Tackle It Tuesday posts.)
We are especially grateful for this home, because, well, it isn't ours. My hubby and I do not own it. My mom does and we live here with her. This arrangement works out very well for us. She has her bedroom and en-suite bathroom on the main floor and we have the upstairs, and pretty much the basement, which includes my scrap area, a TV area and Jackson's other play room, to ourselves. We share all the living space on the main floor.
Actually, my mom is rarely here, so we basically have the place to ourselves. My mom, my twin sister Susan and I run our online children's stores together and we have a home office at Susan's townhouse two blocks away. Ironically, my mom spends most of her time there. She even cooks and eats her meals there! Jackson is always complaining that Grandma doesn't live here anymore because most of the time he spends with her is over at Susan's house.
Housing prices here have gone crazy here – and I mean really crazy. You do not want me to tell you how much a house costs in this neighborhood – and we live in the suburbs! So in order to reduce financial stress and to allow me to stay at home with Jackson, we have decided that living here makes the most sense right now.
Yes, my mom is the most generous, incredible woman and we are so grateful for what she is doing for us. It sometimes does cause my husband and me stress, and hurts our pride, that we do not own a house of our own, but right now it seems like this is what we should do. My mom insists that the house is too big for her anyway and tells us that we do not need to be in any hurry to move. So here we are. Grateful and humble.
Thank you so much for coming over. It has been so great having you.
But one more thing – here at 5 Minutes for Mom we promise to bring you some of the best stuff online.
So take a quick hop over and visit our latest post. We're featuring a fabulous new Mom-Created line of sun protective children's clothing and we really don't want you to miss it! (Also we've arranged for you to get 50% off of EVERYTHING. You'll want to stock up for next summer… we sure did.)
Thanks again for coming – and come back soon!

It's nice. I love the play area. And I think it's great that living with your mom works out so well.
- 12 July 28, 2006 at 6:18 am
I think your home is lovely and I don't think there is anything wrong with your living arrangement! It sounds pretty ideal to me. I understand about the hurt pride and owning your own home thing, though. We rent right now but would love to own.
Anyway, I enjoyed the tour!
- 13 July 28, 2006 at 6:24 am
What a beautiful home! Your mom is a very generous woman!
Be blessed!
- 14 July 28, 2006 at 6:48 am
Love that kitchen!
- 15 July 28, 2006 at 6:52 am
WOW, what a beautiful home…I love your style, the colors are great and your kitchen WOW…it looks awesome! I wanna come make some cookies, but hey only if you clean up!
- 16 July 28, 2006 at 7:01 am
Your house is so cheerful and fresh-looking! And that work area! Siiiigggh…I don't think I'd ever get a thing done. I'd be looking outside all the time.
- 17 July 28, 2006 at 7:12 am
How wonderful that your Mom shares her lovely home with you! These days it is so difficult for young families to even buy a starter home (at least here in CA) not sure where you are!
- 18 July 28, 2006 at 7:49 am
Thanks for the tour! Lovely home. What a blessing for you children to grow up so close to their Grandma!
- 19 July 28, 2006 at 7:55 am
Well, your mom's house is beautiful. Y'all are brave to have that whilte living room with little ones around. The rubber mats on the wood floors are awfully smart!
Housing prices in your area sound like those in Seattle where my sister lives. We'd consider moving there, except we'd have to live in a cardboard box and probably wouldn't be able to afford even that!
Praise God for family!

I am touring all these houses on "Tour of Homes," and I am so jealous. Your house is beautiful. I could sit in your work area all day and just soak up that great view. All the houses I see so far have such different, but wonderful decorating schemes. I think yours is one of the best. I also like Sandras a lot at Diary of a Stay at Home mom. I love that your house looks elegant yet comforting and inviting. Not an easy combination to pull of, but you did it, and did it with grace. Oh, by the way I did not mean jelous in a mean way, you know the kind of jealous that is joyous, if this makes sence.
- 21 July 28, 2006 at 8:01 am
One more thing, your kitchen is to die for. Are those granite countertops? This should be on a cooking show. I would love to have your kitchen.
- 22 July 28, 2006 at 8:04 am
Okay one more comment. I think your living arrangement is great. I live in military housing, not my own, but I decorate it as if it was. I think a home can be anywhere, not just if you own it, but as long as you live in it, it is your home.
- 23 July 28, 2006 at 8:04 am
You have a beautiful home! I just love your kitchen!
- 24 July 28, 2006 at 8:12 am
That's my dream kitchen.
- 25 July 28, 2006 at 8:18 am
It's beautiful, and I'm so glad for you that you can share it with your mother and not have that financial burden!
- 26 July 28, 2006 at 8:33 am
I love all the windows off the dining area of the kitchen. Especially the beautiful "carpet" in the family space!
- 27 July 28, 2006 at 9:00 am
You have a lovely home and it is fun to see your little boys room…all the swell toys and he is soooo adorable. And it is just so nice to meet you!
- 28 July 28, 2006 at 9:02 am
Okay just one more. I kind of think parents love when their kids live in their homes. I don't know why anyone would want to live alone. It's more fun living with lots of people just like years ago. Everyone then can take care of one another. You are lucky. We are always so far from family being in the military.
- 29 July 28, 2006 at 9:09 am
You have a lovely home. Thanks for sharing :-).
Have A Great Weekend!!
- 30 July 28, 2006 at 11:11 am
Very nice..I loved the tour
- 31 July 28, 2006 at 11:16 am
I love your work area too! Very nice home.
- 32 July 28, 2006 at 11:49 am
Great house, love your kitchen especially! Thank you for the tour, & thanks for visiting me. I didn't realize you had 5minutesformom! I am in the signing-up process. I am impressed with what you are doing! Wow!
- 33 July 28, 2006 at 12:06 pm
Thank you so much for letting us see a glimpse of your home…well your mother's house but still your home:-) It's beautiful and I love the furniture and decor!! This Tour of Homes was a brilliant idea:-)
- 34 July 28, 2006 at 1:55 pm
An elegantly decorated home. Beautiful!
- 35 July 28, 2006 at 2:11 pm
What a nice place you have here! And what a blessing that you can share it with your mom and allow her to love you in this way. That's special.
Very smart with the soft covers for your little guy's space – protecting the floor and him as well.
Love your kitchen and the living room looks beautiful – I'd like to sit in there a while and relax. OK?
- 36 July 28, 2006 at 2:12 pm
Love it!! Thanks for sharing! It sounds like you guys have a really close family, that is so wonderful that you can all live close and share in each other's lives.
- 37 July 28, 2006 at 2:24 pm
I LOVE Your house, the living room is gorgeous and so is the kitchen….I so wish I could stop by for a visit
- 38 July 28, 2006 at 2:31 pm
Thanks so much for your visit and sweet comment to me…I enjoyed the views of your cozy home!
- 39 July 28, 2006 at 2:47 pm
You have a lovely home and what a blessing!
- 40 July 28, 2006 at 2:54 pm
Thanks so much for the tour, you have a lovely home!
- 41 July 28, 2006 at 2:56 pm
White couches! I don't know how you keep them clean.
Your house lovely. I too like the windows by your work area. Windows make all the difference to me.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and reading my housekeeping post. It is truly one of my favorites, so I am glad you got something out of it.
I will have to check back for the next TT. I have several jobs I could stand to tackle…
- 42 July 28, 2006 at 3:36 pm
awesome house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- 43 July 28, 2006 at 4:04 pm
I love the colored squares on the floor! And the little table. What a great play area! Thanks for inviting us to your place. And thanks for stopping by "My Quiet Corner"!
- 44 July 28, 2006 at 4:14 pm
The kitchen island is great, especially the high back that can hide your "work in progress" (in my house known as dirty dishes). Also good place for visitors to lean on and distract you while you're cooking. (I don't operate well under those conditions)
- 45 July 28, 2006 at 5:03 pm
Your coffee table is just the bomb! Thank you for sharing your beautiful house with us!
Come visit me sometime.
- 46 July 28, 2006 at 6:51 pm
I really like the conversation area w/ the couch and easy chairs.
- 47 July 28, 2006 at 7:30 pm
Beautiful house!
I love your kitchen!!
Is that a tv in your fireplace??
Thanks for having me.
Blessings! ~Beckie
- 48 July 28, 2006 at 7:31 pm
Janice, your home is beautiful. I've said it a few times on my blog but didn't reiterate it again during the tour, we don't own a home either. We lost our dream home almost nine years ago and have rented ever since. It has been an intentional decision that we wait now until the kids are older before we even consider having me go back to work. Family comes first! God can hand each of us a home tomorrow if he so wishes. Being home with the kids is more important.
- 49 July 28, 2006 at 10:23 pm
I loved your house initially just looking at the pictures – but then reading why you've chosen to live there made me love it even more. What a blessing – what a provision from God – and what an encouragement.
Thanks, Janice – so much.
- 50 July 29, 2006 at 6:21 am
What a nice home and what a blessing to live with your mom. Thanks for sharing your home and your story.
- 51 July 29, 2006 at 7:57 am
Your home is lovely! I like your 'Tackle it Tuesday' idea as Monday is not my day to do anything.
Thanks for the tour. : )
- 52 July 29, 2006 at 10:31 am
Thanks so much for the tour
- 53 July 29, 2006 at 11:12 am
LOVE the carpet in the livingroom!!
- 54 July 29, 2006 at 11:12 am
Amazing kitchen and how sweet of your mom to share her home. I bet the kids love being near so much family; mine sure miss theirs, thirteen hours away.
- 55 July 29, 2006 at 4:21 pm
I think the best thing about your house and living arrangements is that you do it because it is what is best for your son. I don't know too many people willing to live with their moms (or make any kind of sacrifice really) to be at home with their kids. Kuddos to you and what a blessing that it is a nice home on top of it all!
- 56 July 29, 2006 at 10:10 pm
You have a wonderful home, and you have arranged it beautifully. Thanks for the nice visit.
- 57 July 30, 2006 at 3:06 am
I love your home. Especially that huge island in the kitchen! I love tackle it Tuesday. Just haven't been able to commit myself to it yet! Thanks for the tour.
- 58 July 30, 2006 at 6:50 am
What a beautiful home… regardless of who owns it. I, too, am blessed with a generous mom who would give everything to me if she could. Over the years, I found the guilt creeping up on me and when I finally confessed to her she admonished me for trying to take away her rights to "give back" what was given to her many years ago. While I admit it is still sometimes overwhelming to think of the love she continually pours on me, I'm so grateful that I am blessed enough to have her at all!! Thanks for sharing your home and your story! Can't wait to stop in for my next visit!
- 59 July 30, 2006 at 7:30 am
Your home is beautiful, especially like the kitchen and your decorating touchs. Thanks for the tour.
- 60 July 30, 2006 at 2:20 pm
I love your work area! That is such a pretty view. How inspiring that must be…or distracting. Thanks for letting us see your home.
- 61 July 30, 2006 at 3:36 pm
Your home is absolutely beautiful. I love love the white furniture by your lovely fireplace. And your kitchen is just to be dreamed of. Lovely, lovely. Thank you.
- 62 July 31, 2006 at 6:56 am
Love home…and OH the white furniture – you brave soul
Oh, even though you don't own it, it's still YOUR home and it's beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
- 63 July 31, 2006 at 7:31 am
Your (your mom's) house is beautiful! I love the windows by the work area. I'd be staring out of those most of the day. Thanks for the tour.
Thanks for stopping by my place to look around.
- 64 July 31, 2006 at 8:23 am
ah, now there's a kitchen! Thanks for stopping by and taking my tour. I enjoyed yours!
- 65 July 31, 2006 at 10:56 am
Now that is what I call a workable kitchen! But the white furniture would drive me crazy or else my kids… "Have you washed your hands? Don't sit there unless you can give verifiable proof that you haven't touched anything that would even think about staining this couch!" But that's just me.
I'm thrilled that you have such a loving mom to see the need and to open her home to you. That is true love for you!
Thanks for sharing your living space with us.
- 66 August 1, 2006 at 3:26 pm
Thank you so much for the tour of your lovely home (great kitchen!). I'll definitely be back to browse your blog.

Whose brilliant idea was it to have Tony's only living companion be a goldfish named after his dead partner? Surprisingly, it was two superfans who came up with the Easter egg! "We had two 13-year-old girls on set one day visiting, and I said, 'Don't you think Tony should have a pet?'…and the girls said, 'Oh, yeah. It's good if he has someone to talk to,'" explains Weatherly. But as soon as they had landed on an easily maintained pet goldfish, the next challenge was to name it. It seemed like a big task, but fairly quickly, the girls came up with "Kate." And it was too perfect to pass up. "So we made it so," he says.

text: The New Orleans City Council today approved new rules regarding Mardi Gras parades, including how those parades are conducted, how people may watch them, and what may be sold at them. The council wanted to make it clear that when people set up to watch a parade, they can't block access to side streets or where streets cross neutral grounds. "The primary issue here is public safety," said council member Jackie Clarkson. "When emergency vehicles can't cross a neutral ground because the roadway of the neutral ground is blocked with sofas and barbecue grills, that's beyond the spirit of Mardi Gras. That's dangerous." Another batch of ordinances dealt with how close to the street parade ladders can be placed. The council passed a rule requiring a standard set-back of six feet. The council also prohibited the sale of "snap pops," tiny exploding bags that have been popular with some parade goers. They also increased fines for private portable toilets placed in public rights-of-way along the parade route. Clarkson said the council, first responders, krewe captains and members of the community all worked together to craft the best possible regulations of Carnival.

Introduction / History
The Kvandin (Bagulal) are a small ethnic group belonging to the Ando-Tsezian peoples of West Alpine Dagestan. They may also be known as Bagvalal. They call themselves, "Bogatiyri - heros." Culturally and linguistically they are close to the Avars. In their everyday life they have merged with Avars to whom they are often attributed. However, their households are characterized by their own language and some characteristic cultural features. The persistence of the enduring identities of this people and other ethnic groups has been aided by the rugged terrain and by societies whose loyalties are to clan and family as much as to nation or region.
These people live on the Western slopes of the high mountains of Dagestan. Close to the Georgian border, they are almost at the midway point on a line from Tblisi to Makhachkala.
What are Their Beliefs?
The Bagulal people are Sunni Moslems.
Prayer Points
* Pray that Jesus would be exalted as the hero and Savior of the Bagulal.
* Pray that the families would come to salvation and be strongly committed to the Lord.

perhaps conrad's best
i havent read all of Conrad's novels, but I've read a few and think this one is the best... it is one of those books that u read so much at one time b/c you can't stop flipping the pages... i was surprised to look at how many pages i read at the end of the day... also, conrad makes the main character so intriguing that you are able to fully understand him and respect him for the type of person he is... He (Nostromo) is not a perfect character, but that's one of the things that makes him so easy to relate to....
No Subject
Another great example of Manifest Destiny doctrine that has plagued so many minds ever since the formation of the US. Subtle language to let know the mindless public opinion, that Latin America or other non western can not govern itself without the intervention of the super powers. Misciting the words by Bolivar " governing them is like plowing the sea" That Bolivar said reffering to western controlled countries brainwashed by its politics concerning the "other" Just like Shakespeare's The Tempest. Caliban represented the new world inhabitants, while "Prospero" was the western figure. Caliban was rotten, prospero was educated, Caliban was doomed while Prospero was restored to the nobility from where he came. Funny to know that Shakespeare wrote 116 years after the "discovery" and never traveled to the new world, just word of mouth to brand the folks of the new world as savages. It remainds me about the coup of state in Guatemala by the US. Overthrow a lawful and democratic goverment that wished to eliminate the slavery conditions that were maintained by the US interest abroad Now, and thanks to the US worries of communis, there is political unrest in Guatemala ever since. Remember the US contra Affair? How was that the US Marine officer involved got away with it and you park for some minutes under a no parking sing and get the whole weight of the law/ Funny isn'it? Nice piece of literature aimed at twisting the facts.
what a terrible book to study
this book is a good book to read though rather tedious in parts. it is very cleverly written. unfortunately my liking for the book has been dashed by studying it for coursework. dont ever study it as it shall ruin the book. it is very clever but hard to allow quotes to be taken as there are no relevant quotes to be used so it makes writting about the book very hard.

Taking a Solo Vacation?
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 08-02-2012 - 10:14am
Here, honey. This week, you need to take the kids to soccer and Girl Scouts and gymnastics camp. There's not much in the fridge, so you'll need to hit the grocery store. Come to think of it, there's not much in the way of clean clothes, either, so you'll need to do laundry. Oh, and don't forget to mow the lawn. Now, have a blast! See you when I get back from vacation!
Does jetting off to some exotic locale while your hubs and the kids stay home sound like a dream come true? Well, go ahead and wake up: Reuters reports that these days, momsand dads are making solo trips a reality.
Trend Alert: More Moms Are Taking Vacations Without the Family- http://www.ivillage.com/moms-and-dads-are-taking-solo-vacations/6-a-477223#ixzz22OjyY9as
What do you think of this trend? Brilliant? Selfish? Would you ever consider taking a solo vacation?
|Thu, 08-02-2012 - 11:35am
|Thu, 08-02-2012 - 11:53am
I think it is a fantastic idea! I have a friend who started taking trips about two years ago with some girlfriends instead of her husband and it is working out great for them. He's now planning hunting/camping trips with the guys (stuff she hates) and she's touring cities he won't go to and site seeing with girlfriends.
While I love my bf and daughter more than anything, a few days away with a couple of friends sounds heavenly! Now if only I can get over the guilt of leaving them alone I think I could really get into it.
|Thu, 08-02-2012 - 4:42pm
Technically I have taken a couple of solo vacations, but short 3-4 days ones. I went away with my church ladies group for a 3 day weekend and when my sister turned 50 her DH threw her a surprise party. DH was not able to get time off work so I went alone.
I do not think that either DH or I would take a longer vacation without the other but I see nothing wrong with it.
|Thu, 08-02-2012 - 6:00pm
My parents have been taking seperate vacations for years. They have very different interests, and after 41 years, have taken plenty of vacations together. I'd say they both head out in different directions 2 to 3 times a year, respectively, without the other. I think it's fantastic. Just cause you're married, and/or a parent, doesn't mean you're attached at the hip and can't do your own thing!
|Thu, 08-02-2012 - 7:27pm
No I don't think there is anything wrong with parents taking solo vacations. Especially if your household is anything like mine. In my home I am responsible for everything which I what happens when we take a vacation. I need a vacation where I don't have to make sure everyone else's needs are getting met before mine.
|Sun, 08-05-2012 - 5:04pm
I think it's great if it rejuvenates you. I've never done it myself, but I have sometimes wished I could.
After thinking about this for awhile, though, I wonder if this solution is just a bandaid on a bigger problem. It seems that 30+ years after the women's movement, women are taking the vast majority of responsibility for their children and households.
I've seen very few families - my own included - where there is a true balance of responsibility. I know two men who were the stay at home dads, and they had a situation very close to balanced, because the moms would come home and hit the ground running to address whatever was happening with the kids or the household as soon as they got in.
My experience and observation has been that many working dads feel entitled to "down time" after work, whether their partner works outside the home or not. This leaves many moms feeling run down, under appreciated, and taken advantage of.
I know that when I was a SAHM, I was completely taken for granted. I also know that it was as much my fault as it was my husband's and more my fault than it was my childrens'. Now that I also work full-time, I find I am more vocal about asking for others to pitch in and take a share in the responsibility. For a long time, it was hard to get my husband to understand that by helping the kids with homework, cleaning up after dinner, picking up the groceries, etc, he was not helping me - he was doing his share as a parent and partner.
It is still a struggle to balance our responsibilities, but at least we communicate about it now. I had to go through a process of saying to myself, hmmm...what would my poor tired hard-working husband have to do to take care of himself if he were single and not the married father of four? Oh - he'd have to cook, do laundry, walk his dog, buy food, and pay bills. So why would I, as a working mother of four, take those responsibilities off his shoulders? We have to share them.
It's greatly improved our relationship, because I'm not so resentful anymore and he's much more in tune with what goes on in our family.
Now when we go on vacation, he prepares the recreational stuff and gets the car and house ready while I supervise packing of clothes and food. That way, we can all enjoy our vacation once we get there together.

I DO think it's brilliant for women, or men, to head off on their own if they feel they need a break from normal life. Someone asked questions about how it could work with kids and such. To that I'd say that it's not always going to work. Someone may have several young children and can't simply jet off to an exotic location. Or they may hire someone to stay with the kids while they're gone.
I don't think it has to be an exotic location. I think it could whatever a man or woman needs to recharge their batteries. If she chooses that simply staying at a nice hotel and doing some shopping for a few days just hours from home is what she needs, by all means do it if you can afford it. If the husband wants to rent a cabin somewhere and spend his days fishing, good for him. I think all people need time to themselves. Not everyone would choose to go on a vaction by themselves, they may get their alone time in other ways/places, but some just might want to get away at that exotic local.
But, assuming you can swing it and you're not leaving kids neglected, I think it's brilliant. I actually started thinking about such a thing a could 7 or 8 months ago (I hadn't read about it or heard of others doing it). i just started feeling this need to get out on my own for a few days. I haven't done it yet, and I don't know if I will. I have a child in high school and while my husband could certainly handle everything at home and my husband would be fine, I couldn't leave my child if I didn't have to. I figure that he'll be off to college soon enough and I just want to hang out at home as much as possible. I don't even want to go that far--just some places in my own state to pursue my hobby is my dream.
I can't afford to go anywhere far away, but I sometimes relish just a day to do as I want: shop, spend the day reading, working on my hobbies, visiting some close by place i've always wanted to check out, etc. I need to have a day every once in a while. So it's not exotic, but it seems to be enough to recharge me for a while.
And yes, I encourage my husband to do the same, although he doesn't do that. We all recharge differently and for him, being in the man cave watching sci fi every now and then for a few hours seems to be enough.

If you think you have a big head don't buy these. They are very uncomfortable because the elastic is too tight.

I was pleasantly surprised by these thick, absorbent, high quality terry headbands selling at only $2apiece. I figure there had to be a catch at the low price, but there wasn't. Great deal!

I bought these for my boyfriend. He has a large head and they fit him comfortably.Plus, the stiped ones look pretty cool.

I bought these for my husband to wear when he's working outside. We live in GA and can have scorching hot days. Since we have a herd of horses and a herd of goats, my husband spends hours outside. He was adamant that he wanted a sweatband that was not too tight. I read the other reviews before I bought this one. I had no idea there was such a price range on something like a headband...who knew? These headbands are affordable, wash and dry without changing the sizing, are extremely comfortable (according to my picky husband) and do what they promise.

The wrist bands along with headbands never arrived and it took a long time to get through to supplier. Ordering for Halloween costume will not order again.
