Lee Compere
Missionary Lee Compere, along with his wife, Susannah, moved to Alabama in 1822 and became embroiled in struggles between white and Creek slave owners and the issue of Indian removal. A charcoal portrait of Compere, probably based on this photograph, was displayed in the First Baptist Church in Montgomery. The original portrait is now in storage, but a photograph of the portrait remains on display.

"~it's a [very] long story~"
The idea is cute, but the story is too long and filled with plenty of unnecessary details. I liked both Diana and Matthew, but they never fully come to life for me. The ending is abrupt though the story was dragging itself for about 20 hours... But it looks like it's the first book in the series. I doubt I will listen to the following books, though I wish the heroes the best on their journey and the quest for the right to love freely.
Victoria Evangelina
"boring infidelity"
I am very sad to find such a boring and empty book from the famous writer. Plus, it stank of infidelity. I dropped it at 3 hours' mark.
"not easy for an outsider"
I do not know much about the teachings and tradition of Paramahansa Yogananda, and while the story was very engaging, I could not fully comperand the great wisdom others found in this book. All in all, an interesting listen outside of my "beaten path" :)
"get your writing tools ready"
I enjoyed this Audible edition. Lots of inspirational tips which fire up the desire to sit down and write! :)
"worth re-listening"
Inspirational book on writing tight and correct way. I highly recommend it to everyone! Worth listening to again and again - just like the other books in the series.
"closer to God"
Wonderful book filled with lots of useful advice!!! I enjoyed the writer's openess and ease of communication with her reader.
A treasure for writers, willing to put a lot of hard work in their manuscript, in order to make it as commercially good as possible.
"need more guidance"
I know so little about creating a character for a book, that I, probably, cannot yet fully appreciate the advice William Bernhardt gives. The process is still quite hazy for me, although I gained lots of great advice from this slim, yet informative volume. I will continue exploring the Red Sneaker series on writing.
"get a physical copy of the book"
Perhaps, this is not the right book to be listened as an audio. It contains a lot of lists and exercises; but the main point is: we ought to be honest with our partners about our feelings and expectations on relationships and life. Otherwise, it all goes to hell. the book helps to see the most difficult areas in financial field your marriage, and tries helping you to navigate over them.
"learning about China"
A very good introduction to the way life and food unfolds in China. It brought me a lot of nostalgy, for we used to live there for three years....
"one of my favorites"
Wonderful: story, language, message and the whole athmosphere and moral of the story. One of my favorite books.

In the propulsively outlandish thriller Taken (it's like Paul Schrader's 1979 Hardcore with no brain and more muscle), Liam Neeson plays a retired CIA agent out to find his daughter, who has been abducted by an Albanian sex trafficker. Throwing knock-'em-dead punches, Neeson a hulk with jackknife limbs makes Jason Bourne look like a man of tired reflexes. He pierces the underworld of sex trafficking so efficiently it's as if he'd set out to nab Osama bin Laden...and found him in 36 hours. C+

Seiko Slimstick won't let you cheat during your exercise routine
Pedometers that count the number of steps you take have been around for decades, but how do you translate that figure into what's needed to burn off that last Double Beef Whopper with Cheese? Seiko has come up with an answer in the Slimstick, a device that measures all of the work you do as you go about your day. Rather than simply measuring the number of steps taken with no differentiation for walking or sprinting, the Slimstick uses sophisticated dual-axis accelerometers to measure the actual amount of work done, and with that information it calculates the number of calories burned. It also stores information about your routine, and show how you are progressing over time. Not bad for something about the size of a pack of gum.
The Slimstick is available in several designer colors and finishes for around $60-70, but is currently available only in Japan.

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953)
Description: Second-billed Marilyn Monroe is the blonde in question in this second film version of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes: Miss Lorelei Lee, whose philosophy is diamonds are a girl's best friend. Together with her best human friend Dorothy (top-billed Jane Russell), showgirl Lorelei embarks upon a boat trip to Paris, where she intends to marry millionaire Gus Esmond (Tommy Noonan). En route, the girls are bedeviled by private detective Malone (Elliot Reid), hired by Esmond's father (Taylor Holmes) to make certain that Lorelei isn't just another gold-digger. When Dorothy falls in love with the poverty-stricken Malone, Lorelei decides to find her pal a wealthier potential husband, and that's how she gets mixed up with flirtatious diamond merchant Sir Francis Beekman (Charles Coburn) and precocious youngster Henry Spofford III (George Foghorn Winslow). Most of the Leo Robin-Jule Styne songs from the Broadway show remain intact, including Marilyn Monroe's rendition of Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend, a production number later imitated by pop icon Madonna.~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Do your teens avoid you like the plague?
|Wed, 10-05-2011 - 12:00pm
I know this is normal to some degree, but my almost 18 yr. old seems to have just taken it too far.

It really hurts when they avoid you, doesn't it? I try to take ques from my daughter's behavior. If she doesn't want to talk or is in a bad mood, I let it go. I stop talking too. I'm still nice and act like it doesn't bother me (this took some practice). She always comes around, however, she's only 15.
|Wed, 10-05-2011 - 5:11pm
My teens are still OK with sitting together to eat dinner and such, but, so busy we don't see them much at all.
|Wed, 10-05-2011 - 4:43pm
Well my 16 yr old is not like this at all but of course he still needs me to drive him places.
|Wed, 10-05-2011 - 3:19pm
Mine was like that in 9th grade, when he was having very real problems with depression.
|Wed, 10-05-2011 - 1:40pm
DS19 was like that senior year. He got up after we left, never brought friends over, left as soon as dinner was over (weekends only; we didn't let him out during the week unless it was school related as he also worked), got home on weekends after we were asleep.... Now that he's a soph in college (living about 10 miles away), he's home more than he was when he spent the night at home! At least as far as waking hours go, he'll pop over for a couple hours on the weekend, and 1/2 hour during the week, and wants to talk and catch up during that time. I think part of it in his case was this incredible drive to be 'independent' and now that he knows he CAN be, he's just back to being more of himself and wanting to know what's going on.

Wingardium Leviosa is the levitation spell – the spell that makes things fly/hover. Most Harry Potter fans would swear by it. Here, this spell has a different connotation – photographs of floating people. Inspired by the Japanese yowayowa blog and with hints and howtos from the Digital rev channel, I and Udayan decided on doing something similar – taking photographs of levitating people. We were fairly successful in getting our colleagues to join us in our endeavor and Udayan, a true photo aficionado that he is, was ever bubbling with ideas. The venue – the campus at work, and our very good friends served as the models. With a lesser number of people and prying eyes likely to disturb us on a Sunday, we managed to squeeze 1-2 shots in-between breaks during the practice for the cultural programme at work. Some of the photos turned out decent and some had more to be desired. We even planned on using a hose and a trolley as props, but those will likely follow in the days to come. For now, we managed to use an umbrella and a schedule as props.

Danger Signs Ahead but Bargain Stocks A-Plenty: Faber
by Michelle Baltazar by Marc Faber Recently by Marc Faber: The Frame of Mind of American Economic Policymakers
Leading contrarian investor Dr. Marc Faber wears his "ultra bearish" cap in his Australian visit, predicting another financial crisis could happen in the next five to 10 years — but even that doesn't mean there aren't any investment opportunities, particularly in Asia.
Visiting Australia as a guest presenter for Treasury Asia Asset Management (TAAM), Dr. Faber said that the Federal Reserve's policy in the past decade only added to the market volatility. By keeping rates artificially low and pumping money into the system, equities, markets and economies will face "unintended consequences," including another financial crisis in the next five to 10 years.
This crisis has not been fully cleansed out of the system, he said.
He repeated his bearish views of the US dollar, which he believes will approach zero (not overnight, but it will happen) while many Asian currencies will rise on the back of a continually improving Chinese currency.
Against that environment, he highlights various investment themes including going long on gold and silver (sovereign funds will likely buy gold when interest rates are around zero), corporate bonds and Asian equities (many markets in Asia are near 20-year lows).
Dr. Marc Faber [send him mail] lives in Chiangmai, Thailand and is the author of Tomorrow's Gold.

Toll booths handing out red ribbons for MADD
As you travel on the New York State Thruway this weekend, you'll be reminded of the dangers of drunk driving.
Mothers Against Drunk Driving are teaming up with thruway officials in their latest campaign to end drunk driving.
Starting today, state thruway workers toll booths will hand out 65,000 red ribbons as part of the Tie One on for Safety Red Ribbon Campaign.
The reminder to stay sober this holiday season will also be featured across message boards across the thruway, as many drivers make their way home from holiday parties.
State police say they'll be working with local law enforcement with checkpoints and patrols as a reminder to drivers that there are consequences for drinking while driving.
"We need to partner with the community to do their share, Mark ODonnell, New York State Police. Be responsible, whether it's you being the designated driver or someone in your party."
The Red Ribbon Campaign is MADD's longest running public awareness project.

Easter Good News Edition
Sojomail - April 14, 2004
In observance of the Easter season and in the spirit of resurrection, we offer this special "Good News" edition of SojoMail. We know that sometimes in our pursuit of justice and peace we have to tell stories about injustice and violence, but this week we offer stories of hope and signs of the in-breaking of God's upside-down kingdom. And, we promise to continue to include "good news" for future issues...
"In the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, we see God's decisive victory not only over death but over all God's other enemies as well. In that one climactic event, we see the certainty that someday, in the kingdom of God, there will be no more violence, war, jealousy, or death.... These forces are still alive and at work in the world, but because of the victory that God won at Easter, their doom is certain."
- Stephen T. Davis, in Risen Indeed
Via Crucis, Via Lucisby Rose Marie Berger
A few years ago Pope John Paul II decided to officially resurrect an ancient Christian custom called the Via Lucis - the Way of Light. It's a devotional practice similar to the Stations of the Cross, but it focuses on the Easter appearances. It's also called the Stations of the Resurrection or the Stations of Joy. Well suited for the 50 days of the Easter season prior to Pentecost, the Via Lucis scriptures reflect on the final chapters of the four gospels, which narrate the resurrection appearances. There are 14 "stations of light."
We are all familiar with the cross and what it symbolizes. Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ serves as a bloody reminder about this form of state-sponsored torture. Many Christians symbolically "carry the cross of Christ" through the season of Lent, maybe through fasting or almsgiving or saying extra prayers. Maybe by figuring out how to get right with an estranged family member. Maybe by practicing a "rigorous moral inventory." Often the penitential purple shows up in our churches.
If I'm honest with myself, I'd say that most of the year feels like Lent. The daily headlines read like Christ's crucifixion. There are the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the anniversary of the Rwandan genocide, lying "public servants," CEOs stealing billions, too many kids "left behind," gangs so crazed by anger that they opt to become suicide-bombers. Add in your own. To put it simply, all this hurts Jesus. All this is another blow of the hammer nailing Jesus to the cross.
But what does the Via Lucis feel like? Where do I find and celebrate the Way of Light? In my neighborhood it includes the community gardens where grandmothers from rural North Carolina teach their tough urban grandkids how to plant tomatoes. It includes the pick-up soccer games in the park where "enemies" play together on the same team. It involves the Salvadoran priest, a torture survivor, who is raising money to plant flowers in a park that's a home for the homeless. My Via Lucis even stops in Foz Do Iguacu, Brazil. When CNN falsely accused the town of harboring "terrorist cells," the mayor fought back with humor by placing ads in more than 160 travel magazines that said, "If he can find the time to see our waterfalls, why can't you?" under a photo of bin Laden. My Way of Light would also pause at the World Trade Center where a friend planted corn seeds in the ash-seeds given to her by survivors of the El Mozote massacre in El Salvador. A year later she returned to Ground Zero to find an 8-foot corn plant growing in Manhattan.
To enter Easter and the qualities of light, I need reminders that Jesus was not "cured of death," as theologian James Alison puts it. That's what happened to Lazarus. Instead, Jesus kept fidelity with life.
His Via Lucis includes an empty tomb, honoring Mary Magdalene, teaching on the way to Emmaus, breaking bread, breathing peace on the disciples, forgiving them, engaging Thomas' questions, teaching Peter about love, teaching the disciples how to continue in The Way, overcoming the powers and principalities by ascending to heaven, and encouraging the followers to wait and watch for the Holy Spirit.
"Via Crucis, Via Lucis." Where there's the cross, there's also light. It may not be easy to wear light on a chain around the neck, but then again, as people of the resurrection, we don't need to. I pray that it will be obvious to all who see us that we are people of joy. We walk in illumination. Where we pass, our footprints puddle with light.
How will you practice the Via Lucis?

Signs of hope: Women and the global - and biblical - struggle for justiceby Nontando Hadebe
As I reflect on my experiences at this United Nations Session, I am reminded of the story in Numbers 27:1-11 of Mahlah and her four sisters who brought their experience of injustice to the entire community of Israel. What makes this story intriguing is that their experience of injustice came as a result of the law that was given by God to Moses. Upon hearing the women's challenge, Moses placed the case before God. God responded by acknowledging the validity of the challenge and changed the law. Justice appears to be the overarching ethic that guided the law. Rather than viewing justice as static, the story in Numbers presents justice as a living, dynamic, and powerful ethic that continues to say a resounding "no" to injustice. It is a story of hope for all who experience injustice because it reveals God as one who upholds justice at all times.
I link this story of hope to the hope I experienced at the CSW conference. The United Nations, with all its imperfections, is a symbol of hope; it represents an attempt by the global community of nations to work together toward a just and equitable world. The CSW is a permanent structure within the U.N. that was established in 1946 in response to the experiences of injustice brought to the U.N. by the global community of women. Like Mahlah and her sisters, women from all over the world gather during the CSW Session and bring to the U.N. their experiences of injustice. Their challenges have transformed and continue to transform the U.N. and the global community.

SATIRE: Poverty rate of southern continent at all-time lowby Ryan Beiler, Sojourners Antarctic Bureau Chief
Antarctica, long neglected by industrialized nations as an aid-dependent "basket case," is finally on the economic upturn. This, due solely to the fact that Bruce Jovanovich of the National Science Foundation's Antarctic Program tripled his income by convincing superiors that his research into penguin migrations was a vital component in the war against terrorism. His raise, when averaged with the income of the 17 other scientists huddled in underground bunkers in this frozen God-forsaken wasteland, increased the per capita income of the continent by 22%.
Jovanovich has already invested his largess in the local economy by installing an open-air Jacuzzi from which to observe his penguin subjects. "Sometimes my binoculars get a little steamed up," said Jovanovich. "But it's worth it just to sit there in 105 degree water with the antarctic wind whipping through my hair! That invigorating sensation really helps me do a lot of science, which as we know is essential to stopping terrorism. God bless America. And also Antarctica."
Jovanovich's neighbors are somewhat less enthusiastic about their continent's economic boom. On condition of anonymity, one ice core analyst commented through chattering teeth, "Bruce is such a jerk. Now please excuse me while I massage some feeling back into my frostbitten extremities."
Paying taxes with the currency of loveby Tom Blodget
To advise paying taxes isn't to give advice; it's simply to make an observation of the obvious obligation. In other words, those who profit by the system must also pay the taxes that the system requires. On the other hand, there is a system of relationships that do not involve money. The currency of such a regime is love, not money.

The soul of service
While it's often easy to say what Christians are against, it's often difficult to say what it is that they are "for." But for the past 10 years, Soul Survivor has been active in demonstrating the positive side of what those who believe in Jesus are about: serving the poor, helping those in need, and showing compassion with tangible acts of service. This summer, the organization is organizing events on both sides of the Atlantic to encourage thousands of youth to put their faith into action through acts of service and the forging of cross-community relationships.

Readers write
Vicki Evans writes from Salt Lake City, Utah:
[Regarding "Focus on the corporation: Wal-Mart," SojoMail 4/7/2004]: Just think how many low-interest business loans Wal-Mart could have made to the people of Inglewood with the $1 million they spent just on advertising. If they really wanted to help neighborhoods and create employment, they could help low-income entrepreneurs start small businesses and employ people. Even if it were on some kind of partnership basis that would allow both Wal-Mart and small business to work side by side, it would be more of a win-win situation.
Rev. Rick Reynolds writes from Seattle, Washington:
[Regarding the Quote of the Week for SojoMail, 4/7/2004: "...God has no joy in our pain, but he sometimes uses pain and suffering as bitter medicines for the treatment of souls." - Sundar Singh, in Wisdom of the Sadhu]: Sometimes suffering can be used by God for our benefit. But not always. I work with homeless people and live in a marginal neighborhood. Folks in a nearby apartment building moved out, leaving behind the body of their daughter in a cardboard box in the closet. There are people around us every day who have survived horrors we can never know. Let us not be too quick to say that their suffering is for their benefit.
Terry Messman writes from Oakland, California:
I wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I appreciated your recent column on Michael Novak and his gospel of greed ["A gospel of personal wealth meets the gospel of commonwealth," SojoMail 3/24/2004].... I think it is inspiring and admirable that you had the heart to confront him at a formal public event with the two different theologies. For the life of me, I simply can never understand how the super-rich are able to bend the gospels and delude themselves into thinking that God rewards their virtue with money, and that's why they are rich. The prophets and the gospels consistently bless the poor and warn the rich. Specifically, they warn the rich that you cannot love both God and money, for you must hate the one to love the other. Yet somehow, "corporate Christianity for CEOs" recasts God in the image of a banker, and completely distorts God's blessing by recasting it as money. Re-creating God in the image of money: that's transparently idolizing money, which, of course, is exactly what corporate capitalism unthinkingly does.
The not-at-all bald Andrew Schleicher writes from Nashville, Tennessee:
I want to send a note out to Ed Spivey for his satire on the Bush administration going after the bald ["Don't hate them because they're beautiful," SojoMail 4/1/2004]. While Kerry may have a full head of hair himself, he is also a sure defender of the bald. Seriously! Check out the April 5 Newsweek. In 1982, John Kerry, then a practicing lawyer in Boston, went before a jury with the case of a man whose scalp was infected after getting it implanted with carpet fibers. The procedure is now banned by the FDA, and I am sure that Kerry's work had something to with it. While, as the article points out, Kerry has not talked much about his work as a defender of the bald, if Spivey's satire were to become reality, I am sure this would be bigger news.
Dordt College student Andrew Hoeksema writes from Sioux Center, Iowa:
I appreciate the fact that Sojourners magazine and SojoMail often publish points of view and commentaries and make them available to a number of readers who might not stumble upon them otherwise. In this light, I request (heck, I beg of you) that you publish (in its entirety if possible) the Senate floor remarks made by Senator Robert Byrd on April 7, 2004.... These remarks represent the opinion of an incredibly fast-growing number of Americans, yet an opinion too rarely spoken in political forums. I am in complete admiration of Senator Byrd's boldness, wisdom, and eloquence. This is the best representation of true American patriotism by an elected representative that I have seen in months, if not years. These are the speeches that peace advocates of all varieties need to celebrate, disseminate, and encourage more of.
[Senator Byrd's speech is available at: http://www.commondreams.org/views04/0407-15.htm ]

PIGEON FORGE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- As the summer travel season ends, companies are looking for another big year in the Great Smoky Mountains.
Last year, Pigeon Forge posted its highest tax revenues in the city's history. Mayor David Wear says he thinks this year could top last year's numbers.
"That's right, up on top of a record year. All smiles in Pigeon Forge," said Wear. "But that doesn't mean we turn the lights off. We've got a lot of stuff going on. Fall leads into Winterfest, leads into spring break next year. Pretty soon, the next two weekends we have car shows."
Rain did slow down some business throughout the summer. However, most companies say attendance when the sun was shining was good.
"At Dollywood I think we're a little like the farmer down the road. We could have used a little less rain but by no means did it dampen the enthusiasm of the families that came out to enjoy Dollywood's Great American Summer. It was fabulous," said Trish McGee, a Dollywood spokesperson.
Wear says he believes the strong brand for an affordable family vacation has helped the Smokies area tourism grow each year.

Maida Substitutes - American flours
'All-purpose Flour', 'Pastry Flour', 'Whole wheat Pastry Flour', 'Cake flour' are widely considered as substitutes for Maida
In olden days, Maida was a Whole-grain flour made of soft white wheat, ground fine, minimum loss of ash. It is un-bleached. Nowadays, only the endosperm is ground making it more compatible with regular Pastry Flour available in United States.
Best Substitute: 'Whole-wheat Pastry flour'
'Whole-wheat Pastry flour' is the closest substitute for Maida, except that it is not stone ground.
Good Substitute: Pastry flour
Pastry flour is a white flour (bran and germ sifted out) made of soft wheat. Higher gluten than cake flour, lower gluten than All purpose flour, or 'Whole-wheat Pastry flour'
Acceptable Substitute: Un-bleached All-purpose flour
All-purpose flour is white flour (bran and germ sifted out) made with a combination of hard and soft wheat. It may be bleached, or un-bleached.
Un-acceptable substitute for either Atta, or Maida
Cake flour is white flour made of soft (Red, White, or Combination) wheat. It is the lowest gluten, no ash. It is bleached to support sugar without collapsing

Three women's lives share a common core: they have all been profoundly affected by adoption. Karen (Annette Bening) had a baby at 14, gave her up at birth, and has been haunted ever since by the daughter she never knew. Elizabeth (Naomi Watts) grew up as an adopted child; she's a bright and ambitious lawyer, but a flinty loner in her personal life. Lucy (Kerry Washington) is just embarking with her husband on the adoption odyssey, looking a baby to become their own.

I recently posted the below as a Bulletin but have since decided to share with everyone.
Sorry I have been absent. Until recently I was content living my days the best I could with what I have been given. Still do and been happy as well.
Long long ago I had given up on romance, locked my heart up and almost tossed the key, but glad I didn't.
I had this notion that nobody would give me a second look, I am dirt poor, in a wheelchair, have multiple health issues and have only but myself to offer. Definately not the best cookie in the box.
I can also be a hard headed old fool at times, that alone almost just cost me the opportunity of a life time.
A little over ten weeks ago I start chatting with a beautiful Lady, she is paying me lots of attention, I barely notice. Yes right now there is mileage that seperates us, but when we chat, it is as if we are face to face.
Somehow she found the rusty old key to unlock my hard old heart and walked right in and managed to get the old fire lit again.
We chatted long sessions, my issues did not matter to her, she was interested in me, we had many items in common, similar interests, and oft times think the same way.
Yep, the old dragon has fallen in love, I was happy before maybe just content, but now I am happier than ever I could imagine. It just happened, could not have been planned or scripted.
I also have proof that the power of love exists. After my heart attack in 2006, I have had cardiac tests six times a year, always comparing the new test to the previous one. Up until recently there was only marginal improvement.
A couple weeks ago I had the tests done, Lokking at this new test results, my doctor could not believe it to the point she had the test redone thinking equipment was faulty., the second came out just as the first one had.
Where the results were only marginal in the past, this new test showed a vast improvement in my heart, All of the myriads of tests I have on a regular basis are the same way all show sudden and drastic changes to the good.
It has to be the power of love, can be nothing else because otherwise I still live my life the way I always have, except now love resides in my heart and it is absolutely beautiful.
Tags: Love Happiness
What a wonderful story. Isn't it amazing how just knowing that someone thinks you are something special, actually makes you feel special. I am truly amazed at how the human spirit can adjust to situations. See...you may have given up on you, but someone else saw something in you and did not give up. I love it!
We all need love,sometimes you have to open your heart.....Apparently you have!! Best of luck to you and yours.....
A beautiful story, I have not been to blogs for some time but If there is going to be 'real' stories like this I may come back.
A nice blog. Thanks. Love and understanding can work wonders, for sure.
