Early Ecclesiastical Sites
Early Ecclesiastical Sites
Christianity was probably first introduced into Ireland during the 4th century A.D., and by 431 A.D., prior to St. Patrick's 5th century mission in the northern part of the country, there were sufficient Christians in the south of the country for Pope Celestine to send Palladius as their first bishop. During the early centuries of Christianity here, the organisation of the church was diocesan and episcopal, similar to that established elsewhere in Europe under the Roman Empire, and the territory or paruchia ruled by each bishop seems to have been co-terminus with the tuath or local political unit (Hughes 1980, 50). Monastic foundations appear in Ireland from the mid-6th century onwards, and, though the 2 systems co-existed for a time, by the late 7th and 8th centuries the monastic paruchiae or federations had become the dominant ecclesiastical units. They remained so until the reforms of the 12th century when the Irish church was re-organised on the diocesan and parochial system by which it is still governed today.
A wide variety of ecclesiastical sites existed in Early Christian Ireland, ranging from great monastic cities to small isolated hermitages, with a range of lesser monasteries and church sites in between. Some of the church sites were affiliated to the monasteries, others were independent foundations, some were tribal churches, others private churches (Hurley 1982, 299). In adirelandion, there would have been undeveloped cemeteries as defined by Thomas (1971), and a variety of pilgrimage sites. Isolated cross-inscribed pillars and ogham stones may have been erected to mark boundaries, routeways or notable events, and crosses were inscribed on some prehistoyic standing stones. Holy wells were venerated and cross-slabs erected beside them in some instances.
None of the ecclesiastical sites on the Dingle Peninsula developed to the status of monastic cities, though Kilmalkedar was undoubtedly an important centre. The majority are small enclosed church sites of a type common in the west of Ireland, particularly on the Dingle and Iveragh peninsulas. These have often been described as eremitic monasteries, but, with the exception of the pilgrimage site on Mount Brandon and perhaps the island monasteries, few are in remote or isolated locations. Their distribution is similar to that of ringforts, the secular enclosed settlements of the period. Hurley (1982, 311) suggests that the majority should be regarded simply as small church sites which provided essential religious services for the local community, and possibly for pilgrims as Harbison (forthcoming) suggests.
These small church sites were generally located within a stone-walled or earthen-banked enclosure which would have served not only as protection but also to define the termon or area of sanctuary of the church. Usually circular or oval in plan, though occasionally D-shaped or rectangular, these enclosures are generally larger than the average ringfort, the majority ranging between 30 and 70m in maximum dimension. They survive at about 30 ecclesiastical sites in the Dingle Peninsula. The remains of circular and rectangular huts are visible at many of the sites, and souterrains occur at a few.

I am a woman, wife, mother, former lawyer, writer, and runner. Some days I struggle with the how the pendulum of life swings between happiness and sadness.
My blog was born almost two years ago as I coped with life's unexpected changes. I lost my father from a four year battle with cancer in 2009 , I moved to Arizona after living in Texas all my life, and my mother moved in with us.

Research interests
The future well-being of our atmosphere relies on a detailed understanding of the chemistry responsible for the oxidation of man-made and natural emissions. Numerical models are used to predict future changes in global warming and air quality, and drive all legislative controls on emissions. Our research aims to improve the accuracy of the chemistry contained in these models through (1) field measurements in the atmosphere of key intermediates, for example, the hydroxyl radical, OH, and other free-radicals, and comparison with model calculations. OH removes almost all trace gases, and drives much of the chemistry of the atmosphere, (2) laboratory studies of the kinetics and photochemistry of key reactions of the Earth's atmosphere, as well as those of other planets and the interstellar medium, using a variety of laser-based methods, and (3) studies of atmospheric chemistry within the HIRAC chamber under simulated conditions.
Field measurements of OH, HO2 and IO free-radicals and OH reactivity in the atmosphere on ground and airborne platforms
State-of-the-art instruments using laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy at low pressure (FAGE) have been developed for quantitative measurement of the hydroxyl radical (OH), hydroperoxy radical HO2 and iodine oxide radical (IO), both from ground-based mobile laboratories and the NERC FAAM BAe-146 instrumented aircraft. Since 1996 we have participated in ~20 field campaigns worldwide (including Antarctica, the Arctic, Borneo, Africa, Tasmania and Cape Verde) and future campaigns are planned in a variety of chemical environments, for example in central London during the 2012 Olympics and the Western Pacific in 2011/12. Measurements are compared with calculations from a range of models, including a box model utilising the Master Chemical Mechanism, which was developed at Leeds and currently contains up to 15,000 reactions and over 5000 chemical species. The level of agreement with models is an excellent test of how well we understand the chemistry of our atmosphere for different environments. We have also developed a field instrument to measure directly the chemical reactivity of OH, a measure of the chemical complexity of the local environment. New instruments are under development for other species, for example, formaldehyde using a novel fibre laser.
Laboratory studies of chemical kinetics and photochemistry
Each reaction in an atmospheric model requires a rate coefficient and branching ratio for the products to be specified as a function of temperature and pressure, and also wavelength in the case of photochemical reactions. In the well-equipped Dainton kinetics laboratory we use laser flash-photolysis combined with a variety of laser spectroscopic probes to study the details of key chemical and photochemical atmospheric processes, many of which involve free-radicals. Using a pulsed Laval nozzle we are able to access temperatures are low as 50K which are representative of the atmosphere of other planets and moons, for example Titan, as well as the interstellar medium. Heterogeneous aerosol chemistry is also an important component of chemical models and we are measuring the uptake of radicals onto the surface of aerosols of differing size distributions and chemical composition.
Kinetic and mechanistic studies using The Leeds Highly Instrumented Reactor for Atmospheric Chemistry (HIRAC)
HIRAC enables us to study mechanistic details of the oxidative chemistry and photochemistry of our atmosphere whilst controlling the chemical composition and conditions (e.g. temperature and pressure). Using a variety of state-of-the art instruments we are able to detect both stable species and free-radicals, including OH, HO2 and NO3 radicals, and comparison with model predictions confirms our mechanistic understanding. HIRAC also provides an ideal medium in which to calibrate field instruments under realistic conditions and is a testbed to develop new instruments.
The work is supported by the National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS) which is based in Leeds and funded by NERC. Much of the work is performed in collaboration with colleagues here in Chemistry and also in the School of the Environment, with whom there are a number of joint grants. Our research is highly collaborative, and we have very close links with other atmospheric groups within the University and across the wider UK and international community.

Main Index > TI 83 > Using TI-83 to Find Confidence Interval
Using TI-83 to Find Confidence Interval: Overview
Confidence intervals give you a range of values which is likely to include an unknown parameter for the population. A simple example: you are going in for surgery at a local hospital. The surgeon tells you your expected hospital stay is "about a week." In reality, patients who have undergone the same procedure stay in the hospital a minimum of five days and a maximum of ten. That's your confidence interval: five days to ten days. A confidence level is something slightly different: it's how sure you are of your confidence interval. You're probably 99% sure that your stay will be five to ten days, but anything could happen, right? You could make a miraculous recovery, or you could be one of the rare people that get a post-op infection. Either way, you can't be 100% confident. So you say your 99% confidence interval is five to ten days.
Using TI-83 to Find Confidence Interval: Steps
Sample problem: For x = 20, and n = 24, construct a 98% confidence interval for p, the true population proportion.
Step 1: Press STAT.
Step 2: Right arrow over to "TESTS."
Step 3: Arrow down to "A:1–PropZInt…" and then press ENTER.
Step 4: Enter your x-value: 2 0.
Step 5: Arrow down and then enter your n value: 2 4.
Step 6: Arrow down to "C-Level" and enter . 9 8.
Step 7: Arrow down to calculate and press ENTER. The calculator will return the range (.65636, 1.0103).
Tip: Instead of arrowing down to select A:1–PropZInt…, press Alpha and MATH instead.
That's you using TI-83 to find confidence interval in easy steps!

From all the guys at John 3:16 Ministries we would like to
John 3:16 Ministries is a Spiritual Boot Camp for men with drug and alcohol addictions. It is a place that offers a refuge for men to have the opportunity to heal spiritually, mentally and physically.
At John 3:16 Ministries, our mission is to give men an opportunity to learn tools to help them become productive citizens in their communities. Of course, it will be up to them to apply the things that they learn, to their lives once they leave the ministry.
The ministry is a long-term program with many men staying for at least 6 months to a year. Unlike other facilities that charge a large fee and generally offer only short term program, John 3:16 Ministries is a long term facility and is FREE OF CHARGE for men 21 years and older. Jesus Christ has already paid the price in full. The ministry does not offer treatment, but it does offer the cure! Jesus Christ is the answer.
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." 2 Corinthians 5:17

To understand this shift is to understand the human needs they have come to fulfill. One of these basic human necessities is having a sense of place. Here Grand Theft Auto V becomes one game in a slew of game titles to foster this need. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Evidence of Being: Urban Black Gay Men's Literature and Culture, 1978-1995 Bost, Darius http://hdl.handle.net/1903/15688 2014-10-12T02:34:34Z 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: Evidence of Being: Urban Black Gay Men's Literature and Culture, 1978-1995 Authors: Bost, Darius Abstract: This dissertation is an interdisciplinary study of black gay men's literary and cultural production and activism emerging at the height of the AIDS epidemic in the United States, focusing in particular on cultural formations in Washington, DC, and New York City. Through an exploration of the work of black gay male writers and activists from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s, I argue that recognizing the centrality of trauma and violence in black communities means accounting for its debilitating effects, alongside its productivity in areas such as cultural and aesthetic production, identity-formation, community building, and political mobilization. Though black gay men's identities were heavily under siege during this historical moment, I show how they used literary and cultural forms such as poetry, performance, novels, magazines, anthologies, and journals to imagine richer subjective and social lives. This project makes three key interventions in the existing scholarship in African American studies, Gender and Sexuality Studies, Queer Studies, and Trauma Studies 1) this project recovers a marginalized period in U.S. histories of race and sexuality, in particular the renaissance of black gay literary and cultural production and activism from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s 2) the project examines how black gay men have used literary and cultural production to assert more complex narratives of racial, gender, and sexual selfhood 3) it explores how historical trauma has functioned as both a violently coercive, as well as a culturally and politically productive force in black gay lives. The project focuses on cultural movement activities in two cities, Washington, DC, and New York City, to offer a more broad, comparative perspective on urban black gay subcultural life. The first section on Washington, DC, explores the work of DC-based writer and activist Essex Hemphill, and the black LGBT-themed magazine, Blacklight. The second section on New York City looks at black gay writer's group, Other Countries Collective, and writer and scholar Melvin Dixon's novel, Vanishing Rooms. I include individual black gay voices in my study, positioning these voices alongside larger structural transformations taking place in cities during this moment. I also foreground the efforts of self and social transformation that emerged through black gay collectivities. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z (Im)Mobilizing Community College Youths' Digital Culture: Theorizing the Implications of Everyday Digital Practices, Perceptions, and Differences among Frederick Community College Youths Trigger, Kelly Lynn http://hdl.handle.net/1903/15312 2014-06-25T02:41:53Z 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: (Im)Mobilizing Community College Youths' Digital Culture: Theorizing the Implications of Everyday Digital Practices, Perceptions, and Differences among Frederick Community College Youths Authors: Trigger, Kelly Lynn Abstract: This study complicates American youths' digital culture by analyzing the digital practices, perceptions, and experiences of students, ages 18 to 24, attending Frederick Community College in Frederick, Maryland, through an interdisciplinary lens that infuses intersectional theory with Bourdieu's triad of habitus, field, and capital. Mixed methods research combining data from the FCC Digital Practices Survey and focus group interviews indicated that community college youths engaged in a spectrum of practices to socialize and communicate, engage in entertainment and creative practices, and manage everyday life, information, school, and work. Community college youths actively participated in digital culture through social networking, listening to music, watching television, playing videogames, and engaging with other technology. Not only did they feel pressured to adapt digitally, they also intentionally disengaged from technology, managed their lives using digital tools, resolved communication conflicts, monitored their online identities and privacy, developed various forms of digital expertise, and observed the impacts of adults' struggles with technology at home and in the classroom. Data patterns, including differences between males and females, and among youths with different racial and ethnic identities, revealed contradictions among their everyday digital practices, their confidence with performing these practices, and their perceptions of practices' importance in college and in their future everyday lives and work. This study theorizes the impacts of these contradictions, proposing that as youths encounter shifts in the symbolic value of digital practices between their everyday digital culture and the field of education, they experience what Clarke et al. (2009) termed "digital dissonance," conflicts between their everyday digital practices and their digital engagement in education. Impacts of digital dissonance, which range from resolution and circumnavigation, to digital stagnation and immobilization, affect the uneven positions youths take up within the field of community college education and potentially result in the unintended reproduction of social inequity. To disrupt the reproduction of inequity, this study considers the material consequences of digital immobilization for community college youths and advocates for intentional reform and research that mobilizes their digital practices. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z "Tell Me Your Diamonds" Story Bearing in African American Women's Life History Narratives Smith, Shanna Louise http://hdl.handle.net/1903/15213 2014-06-25T17:51:50Z 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: "Tell Me Your Diamonds" Story Bearing in African American Women's Life History Narratives Authors: Smith, Shanna Louise Abstract: In 1994, a week prior to the release of her family memoir The Sweeter the Juice, African American writer, Shirley Haizlip was a guest on the Oprah Winfrey Show. The episode, "Denying my Race," unveiled the ways some members of Haizlip's bi-racial family sought to pass for white, while others lived successful lives as African Americans. During the publicized reunion, members of both sides of the racial coin worked toward coming to terms with their identities. In telling this story, Haizlip took on the role of the female story bearer, the writer of the family narrative who is positioned two or more generations beyond the story she tells. What does it mean to be a living archive, a black woman who carries the mantle of an uneasy familial past and makes it her body of work? What does it mean to investigate a wound in the family that is representative of larger cultural injuries that occurred during pivotal moments in black history? How can deeply entrenched cultural wounds open dialogue, establish common ground, and create spaces for empathy and understanding across race, gender, sexuality, and class? Each of the women, about whom I am writing in this dissertation, helps to address these questions. A'Lelia Bundles, Shirlee Haizlip, and (Carole) Ione have all been afforded the opportunity to labor with their fingers to corroborate the oral narratives handed to them. The fruit of their labor are their life histories: On Her Own Ground, The Sweeter the Juice, and Pride of Family, respectively. The titles signal familial pasts that intersect with the complexities of gender and labor, race and racial passing, class and privilege. Using personal life histories like that of Haizlip, Bundles, Ione and others I seek to better understand the ways in which women writers can foster more generative understandings of African American life histories and the ways in which they are situated as sites for social change. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z

Helpful hints for northern zones.
Each tree is guaranteed to grow, or we'll replace it at one half the original price, plus shipping and handling.
Our trees are delivered with natural bare roots which have been dipped in hydrating gel prior to shipment to keep the roots moist and healthy. As their abundant, fibrous roots aren't confined by a container, bare-root trees get off to a more vigorous start compared to containerized roots which typically need more time to adjust to transplanting. Bare-root trees typically surpass the size of larger containerized trees in only a few years.
Natural root (also called bare root) trees are shipped without soil around their roots. They are shipped when dormant in the spring and fall seasons. We dip the roots in a hydrating gel to keep them moist during shipping.
There are a number of advantages to natural root trees:
The Urban Horticulture Institute at Cornell University has an interesting article about the benefits of planting natural root trees. Look for the PDF entitled Creating the Urban Forest: The Bare Root Method
Potted (also called containerized) trees come in 4" containers.

PHQ: Mission 1.1 [Lianne]The red-brownish haired girl looked at the map in her hand as she went up to the floor her mission took place on. Lianne ran her fingers through her hair to untangle them as she held another the map in her other hand.PHQ: Mission 1.1 [Lianne] by macabun More Like This

PHQ: Mission 1:1The first mission had been given recently. Granted, it sounded basic and rather simple, but nevertheless she'd get it done. Henrietta stood in front of the mirror of her bathroom, staring at herself. Bandages removed, one could see one dark magenta eye on the right side of her face, with a dark empty eye socket on the left. It was recently cleaned, but still looked so dark and disgusting to her. With a sigh, she reached to her roll of bandages, unwrapping it as she began to wind it around her head to cover the empty socket. Within moments, it was concealed under the thin white bandages. With them, she felt that she looked a bit more normal.PHQ: Mission 1:1 by KuroneDLC More Like This

Pearl14256Parks I've been to
I have been to:
Yosemite – 2004
Smokies – Several times as I live 45 min away
Virgin Islands – 2010
Everglades – 2013 11 months ago
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.

How I did it: I moved to another state, and was ready to buy a house with my husband. After living here for over 6 months to get the lay of the land, I spoke to a mortgage person to see what we could afford, then to a realtor, and went through the process and bought a house! Read how I did it… 2 years ago
Okay just paid off my Visa…again…still hovering around 2,300 on the DFCU loan. 10 months to go on the car, we owe $2777.29 on it. 2 years ago
Made some terrible butternut squash mac n cheese. Won't waste anyone's time posting the recipe. 3 years ago
So easy so good!
Cook some chicken in lime infused olive oil. When it's starting to get brown, throw in some lime juice. Meanwhile, take four tortillas (corn or flour) and microwave for 30 sec to get them soft. Scoop some black beans onto each tortilla, then the chicken, and finish with grated Mexican blend cheese. Wrap the tortilla and place seam side down in square dish, do the same with other 3. Pour Frontera Green Enchilada Sauce by Rick Bayless on top, then cover in cheese. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 400. Voila!!!!!! 3 years ago
How I did it: Mostly God's timing. He knew what was best for us, and now with hubby's new job, we're here. We found an apartment, and moved! It's been a great experience so far :-) Read how I did it… 3 years ago
How I did it: First I explored other people's blogs. I looked at their styles of writing and what they wrote about. Then I decided what I wanted to write about. Then I wrote!!
My blog is about crafty stuff. Card making, scrapbooking, papercrafts, jewelry, painting, furniture re dos, gardening, cooking, and garage sales.
If you share in these passions, join me at

So, on the eve of the Monument Avenue 10K, there's a few things on my mind
It was last year, that my mother actually walked in the 10K. I remember seeing the pictures of her and my aunt walking in support of the cause and in celebration of the fact that they had both beat breast cancer. This time last year, we couldn't have imagined that my mom would be going through it again and even worse this time. I walked in the house and found her in the bed not really able to move after just having a blood transfusion. Tomorrow when everyone else is walking, she will be at home being looked after because it's difficult to just move through the house without assistance. This isn't the woman I knew just six months ago.
I spoke to her earlier in the week and she said she had two things made very clear to her. The first was that she was sick. It has been several months now, and she's at a point where she realizes how serious things are. That hurt to hear because it means she's that much closer to not fighting anymore. The second was that she knows she needs help to do most things around the house. I'm not mad about that one. She does. I want her to put every bit of energy she can into dealing with this disease. If you need someone to drive you around so be it. If you need help getting stuff around the house, tell someone. That's not hard. There are too many people around who love her to not give her every bit of assistance she needs.
I'll be walking without her in the morning…
It also hit me that this weekend will be the last time for a while that everyone is around. My brother just got a job in Charlotte. He's talked for a few years about wanting to move there. Finally, an opportunity has presented itself and he's decided to take it. I'm happy for him. He needs to be able to move forward in his career. I'm sorry it had to happen at this time. I know my mom needs all the support she can get and sometimes, just knowing everyone is still around is enough to pick up her spirits. It's bad enough that I live 2 hours away and now he's going to be 4 hours away. I know I already miss him so she's gotta have mixed feelings about it. You don't want to hold your kids back from pursuing their dreams, but you don't want empty nest to set in while being told you're not going to be around much longer.
My biggest consolation in all of this is my wife's support. She's really incredible to me and has her own story of pain, yet she's here with me and ready to walk to show support for what my mom is going through. Aside from the walk, it's been the best thing for me, having a wife that can step back and see that there are a lot of things I'm dealing with and provide whatever support to me that she can. It really wouldn't be possible for me to handle seeing my mom in this condition without someone at my side. It's very endearing to know how hard it is for her to deal with sickness and potential death, yet she's right there everyday trying to keep me up and do whatever she can to help my (our) family out.
So, the temperature is supposed to be around 60. I'm registered and ready to go. I want to go to sleep, but all I can do is sit here and stare at this screen.. That's how all of my nights are now, I'm either up doing random mindless stuff because I can't sleep, or I had to be undressed and put in the bed by my wife because I crashed. I keep thinking I'm going to wake up one day soon and have my mom back the way she used to be. Thinking about that statement makes me feel like I'm just lying to myself.
So mom, here's to hoping 2012 will see all of us (you included) in the 10K together, crossing the finish line and knowing that we really did win. That's what I want to dream about tonight.
Don't Repeat Past Mistakes
So, I just got a phone call from my mother-in-law. She was calling to offer her support and urge me to go visit my mom. I have a feeling that my wife mentioned to her that I was going back and forth on whether or not to go visit my mom this weekend. Today is my third anniversary. I really want to celebrate my marriage. As much as I want to see my mom, I feel like everytime I see her has been on a positive occasion. I found out about her cancer on my birthday weekend. I spent Christmas with her before being forced back on the road by the threat of bad weather. Now, here it is, January seventh and I have the opportunity to go for a visit and I can't compel myself to get on the road. Read the rest of this entry »
Time To Get Ill
I heard today that MCA from the Beastie Boys has been cleared of his cancer. He's been under a regimen that included Chinese medicinal and herbal remedies as well as a vegan diet. Of course, in trying to be the optimist about my mom's situation, I wonder how this could help her if at all. The frustrating part about medicine is that even with as many advances as we have, there are still so many things we can't do. Read the rest of this entry »
Can We Talk
I have a friend who's an author that I haven't actually spoken to in years. We built a great website and cultural blog back in 1999 that's still very popular today. Every year, I usually reach out and wish her a happy birthday through whatever social site is popular at the time. This year, it was twitter. After sending her happy birthday wishes, I noticed on her timeline, her refusal to mention the C word. I read a little more and found that her mother was dealing with cancer as well. I thought to myself how sad that was because as long as I've known her, she's been able to make people laugh at her own misfortunes and observations of life and laugh right along with them. There was something about this though, that didn't seem to be something she could laugh at. Because I was now going through a similar situation with my mom, I really wanted to reach out and talk to her. We're both about the same age, we worked together through a very rewarding and stressful project and we're both now dealing with our mothers having cancer that we thought was all gone.
You Will Die
OK, it's Christmas and I got home at 2 in the morning. I got a little sleep before waking up to eat and spend some time with my family. I was in the den and saw all of my mom's paperwork from the doctor. I haven't read it all, but I saw a page of handwritten notes. I was reading down and maybe got to like the 8th line and read "you are going to die." I didn't know what to think at that moment. It felt more like this should be part of the script for House. I understand being honest with your patients, but when you put it in writing like this, it makes everything seem so hopeless. Everything about my life has revolved around hope, faith, and perseverance. There's a part of me that wants to meet this doctor and show him what I think of his notes. I know that doesn't change things and what he said is true. She is going to die. We all are. I don't fear that statement so much. It's all about how you spend your time while you're here. And I just think she's still got more life in her than can be measured. I'm gonna go enjoy some breakfast with her now.
Can I Be Mad At Her?
I've been doing a lot of thinking regarding how all of this came about. After thinking too much on my own, I've come to the conclusion that I'm mad at my mom because I think she's known for longer than this. First, there was Thanksgiving at my parents' house. It was both my mom and dad's sides of the family over for dinner. My parent's house is not big by any stretch of the imagination. We had to spread people across 4 rooms to eat. I can't really think of any other time when both sides of the family have gotten together under one roof. Just coincidence? Maybe. Then, there was the pain she was feeling on that day. I found her sitting in a chair quietly to herself in her bedroom kind of zoned out. I asked her what she was doing and she said she was waiting for some medicine to kick in because she was hurting pretty bad. I don't know my mom to hurt that much.
Happy Birthday
So, I'm supposed to be celebrating my birthday this weekend, but it turns out that this year's not like every other. My father called asking what I was doing and if I could come home. He was strongly urging that I needed to be there because my mom needed to talk to my brother and I. I already knew she was dealing with something because of the pain she's been dealing with, which for my mom, isn't normal. Of course, the fact that she had been through breast cancer just a couple of years before also krept in my mind. I knew it could come back in some people, but it appeared that my mom was in the clear. Still, I knew it could be serious if this was the case.

Purchase Low Rise Designer Underwear
There are many styles of low rise men's underwear available from popular fashion designers, and even more from companies that specialize in men's underwear. The style that is best for a guy will often depend on the activities he frequently enjoys. Many opt for the can't-go-wrong choices of briefs and trunks. Both of these designs offer support, making them suitable for strenuous activities. Some designers have low rise underwear styles that are specially intended for demanding activities, and construct them accordingly from breathable fabrics.
There are a number of reasons men may prefer low rise underwear over other styles.
Skiviez carries a big selection of designer men's underwear in styles ranging from low rise trunks to thongs, jock straps and boxer briefs. The company maintains a large inventory of undergarments from many different designers, giving men ample opportunity to select the styles that fit them best in designs that match their personal taste.

How to keep the kids learning during the snow and the cold.
One option is completing classroom assignments online.
Belpre City Schools are among the Ohio districts who have signed up for an "online calamity" system.
It goes into effect once the system has "maxed out" its five calamity days.
And it allows school districts three days of online assignments they don't have to make up later.
"Many students, after the first day of online assignments, came back with those assignments completed, and turned them into teachers. So my feedback so far has been positive," says Superintendent Tony Dunn.
Monday was the first day Belpre was eligible to take part in the online system.
Superintendent Dunn says while it eliminates some make up days later in the school year, it also helps students continue their lessons without interruption.
Student saftey is the main concern.
With all this cold weather and snow that means more and more days off from school for students in the area and all across Ohio.
Ohio Governor John Kasich proposed more calamity days for schools this year.
Normally schools have five days at the start of the year, but many have already used those.
So schools face going later into the summer, affecting budgets and schedules.
We asked viewers on our WTAP Facebook page what they thought.
Some are for it, and said West Virginia should consider this too.
Some also proposed the idea of online schooling when the kids have to stay home.
Belpre Superintendent Tony Dunn says Belpre has already done that twice.
