Of course life has been busy - I'm blessed with good health, a nice job and a great family...all those blessings take time. I guess we set priorities and sometimes a clean kitchen floor trumps writing about how I should be mopping.
With the help of Invisialign I've lost about 15 pounds! I think I've learned that what I used to call hunger is something else. I hope when I'm done with aligners I can remember those lessons.
I've missed blogging and participating in the Spark Community. Life seems full to the brim, but I'll try to make time to keep in touch.
Have a fabulous Friday everyone!
As always I am grateful. The colors of late fall are somber, leaden gray, faded orange brown and a rare glimpse of green. I have a funeral to attend on Saturday, his passing wasn't unexpected and he wasn't going to get any better so yes, it was a blessing to him.
I was thinking today that I really need to look for more opportunities to support my brothers and sisters who don't have as much to be grateful for. The ones who don't know how they will pay rent this month and the ones who won't have all of their loved ones home for Thanksgiving, there's so much darkness that my light could brighten. Last year my intention was to celebrate...everything. This year I am called to dedicate myself to serve. Right now I'm working on serving the ones in my immediate sphere, there are plenty of opportunities to do better than I have.
If you are reading this, I am grateful for your attention. My Sparkfriends have helped me in so many ways. Somehow I've been sparked to make small changes, like walking and riding the bus instead of driving to work and working out with Coach Nicole almost every day. Those changes have created profound joy in my world. Walking home tonight, in the blustery, cold Thanksgiving Eve afternoon lifted my spirit and burned a few calories. Anyway, Thank you for the inspiration, understanding and good thoughts sent my way.
I've been doing this for a few days now. It seems to make a huge difference in the way my days go. The link at the bottom will take you to a guided meditation and a video of the meditation.
by Julie Redstone
To begin with, sit with your back straight, eyes closed, and breathe slowly and quietly, with your hand, palm down, over your heart center in the center of your chest. Let your breathing deepen and become more relaxed.
Now, visualize a column of light coming down from the cosmos above your head, descending through the top of your head and down your spine, filling your heart, and extending down to the soles of your feet. Feel that this column of light is unending. It is limitless support from God and from the realms of Light.
Breathe in light through the top of your head. With each in-breath, know that you are breathing in God's light and that each breath is strengthening this connection. This light is limitless. It can be drawn upon over and over again. Feel the warmth of your hand on your heart and breathe light into your heart as well. Sit, breathe, feel light moving through you, infusing you with God's breath. Breathe like this for a few moments.
Now, pay attention to the exhale of each breath. As you exhale, release all that is not of the light within you, all that limits you, all that prevents you from drawing closer to God. Release fear, anger, despair, sorrow - release all limitation into the greater light of God that can absorb it and in which it dissolves. Exhale all that holds you back, all that separates you... Continue breathing for several more moments, focusing on the in-breath that draws greater light into your body and consciousness, and on the out-breath that lets go of all that needs to be released.
Become aware of your in-breath and your out-breath. Become aware of the breath of God moving through you. As this meditation comes to a close, give thanks to God for the gift of light and breath and for the help that is given.
Note: This practice should be done daily for maximum benefit, preferably at the same time of day, or, it can be done in shorter form throughout the day. Alignment is the central axis of a spiritual practice that seeks to incorporate more light into one's being for purposes of individual transformation and service to the earth. The more it is practiced, the more will a pathway of light be created through all levels of one's being.
About 3 years ago my sister lost a foot to mrsa, complicated by her diabetes. Today she'll lost the 3 remaining toes on her other foot. Part of the reason she moved here was to be close to family, her health really is fragile and she has a 7 year old son.
My sister has showed me so many ways to be courageous and keep hanging on. Her trials are a huge part of the reason I exercise every day and try to eat right.
I feel like God is walking with her this week. She took Evan, her son, to my parents house on Saturday so he could attend a Halloween party over fall break. She had no idea she'd be having surgery today. Now Evan won't have to see his Mom in the burn and wound unit. I'm so grateful there is such a place, but it's not a place for children...
I hope everyone reading this takes time to be grateful for their good health. Then understands how blessed we each are if we are able to exercise.
The same day we found out my sister needs surgery, we found out my brother is finished with his cancer treatments and doing well. Thank goodness my sister will soon be infection free.
Thank you Sparkies, for helping me stay strong and able to do what needs done.
I've felt so hyper this weekend! I know there are a lot of things to do in the fall, but everywhere I look I get a new idea, or think of something else that needs doing. Mostly I kept my projects short, but there are a few that made a mess. And here it is Monday and those messes will likely stay around until next weekend.
When you started to eat a balanced diet and started exercising, did you notice a huge difference in your energy level? That's how I felt this weekend. Maybe taking Friday off made all the difference...lol, if that's the case, can I take today off too?
Anyway, I love the energy, I didn't love being hyped up when it was time to go to sleep. I had to take a tylenol pm and was really sleepy this morning.
Have a marvelous Monday all! Eat your veggies, shake your booty and you'll have energy and, BONUS! Shiny hair!

K-9 doesn't share Tom's illusions of security.
They don't know where they are, they don't know how got there yet, and no one remembers much about their real life aboard the Satellite of Love…. except for Gypsy (maybe), who showed up earlier to rescue them from their dilemma with K-9, the Doctor's metal dog in tow!
Sadly, the rescue went awry when they crashed the Tardis on an unknown planet, thanks to Crowe T. Robot. He could not resist playing with the levers on the console. Off they went, careening through the Vortex on a wild trip to – who know where?! Now, they have no Tardis, just some stuff they saved from the debris following the wreck. Luckily, the Doctor's bed was spared along with a TV ~ as well as books, food, tea, coffee, other items like the Doctor's fob-watch, sonic screw-driver and a million Tardis-parts; not to mention PJ's, someone's teddy and a sporty night-cap all of which Tom Servo commandeered, apparently.
All we really know, is no one's going to get much sleep tonight! (We also thought the Dalek flew the coop — guess not!)
Tom and Crowe's Un-Excellent Adventure – 13
The Saga Continues…
Inspired by Dr. Who and MSTK-3000
TV image photographed from my tv: the figures are miniatures I photographed (except for K-9 which I drew in Photoshop). Bed, tables, items on the table, K-9's fez, etc. custom brushes also done in CS2, some based on clip-art, some of which appeared in other chapters from the series (once you have a brush, why not use it more than once?? lol)
I miss K-9 and Romana!!! :((
Right now I miss the Doctor, period! When are the NEW ones coming out??? Seems like forever! I was totally stoked when they brought K-9 back (David Tennant series) — then they sent him off to do some silly kids' show and we barely saw him again. Booo! Well, here he is again. LOL!! This silly series is a real mash-up so you don't know WHO you're gonna see! heh Glad you're checking in, hope it brings some laughs! :))))

I loved this. Enjoyed the taste of the almonds with the cheese. Dress this and let it sit for a bit. Holds up nicely on day 2 also. I halved this recipe.
This recipe is perfect. And different than your run-of-the-mill salad offering. There is never a bit left. I use pine nuts because I prefer them. Yum!
This recipe is fantastic as-is. You can also make it with cabbage instead of Brussel sprouts and it's just as good. Also, you can reduce the olive oil by a bit, and use Parmesean instead of Pecorino. Though it's best w/ the shallot and garlic, if you don't have any on hand it's still delicious.
New fave salad! Added avocado and some chopped tomatoes without seeds. I did not add the cheese. Found a good salad to take to picnics and other summer events. Could alter for other holidays with cranberries.
This is quickly becoming my favorite salad! I like to dress it about 2 hours before serving and add dates, roasted tri-colored carrots, and avocado. It has been a huge hit at the past few dinner parties I've attended. Definitely reccomend making the dressing one day in advance.
Wonderful! Had fresh kale and brussels sprouts from my garden and now I have the perfect lemon dressing!
This was great. My husband is a brussels sprouts fan but was skeptical of them uncooked... we both dove in for seconds. delicious and great to last for a few servings throughout the week!

I probably shouldn't ask this - but why did she want her ex to say he loved her? Does she not want him to realize that he is, in fact, an ex? Or does she like rubbing salt in people's wounds?

HoopsHype Denver Nuggets rumors
Roster | Salaries | On Twitter | Twitters | Instagram
Point guard Ty Lawson (ankle) will test the ankle at the team's shootaround before a final determination is made about his availability for the game. He missed Friday night's loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers because of a sore, and swollen, ankle. Denver Post
"I tweaked it pretty bad," he said. "But I continued to duke it out during that game. I think it's just from going so hard and pushing the (left) leg to get so strong that this (right) hamstring is kind of weak. So I've got to get with (Nuggets strength and conditioning coach Steve) Hess and get this leg stronger." Robinson did not believe that he would miss Denver's game Sunday at Portland, though that remains to be seen. "I'm just going to ice it," Robinson said. "I'll be ready for next game. Whatever it takes, I don't have time to sit out." Denver Post
David 'Dubi' Pick: GM for Real Madrid, according to source, spotted with camp of Nuggets Serbian draftee Nikola Jokic at Mega Vizura game. Twitter @IAmDPick
David 'Dubi' Pick: It's possible, according to source, for Barcelona to acquire Serbian center Nikola Jokic next season. Twitter @IAmDPick
The only official piece of business left out there is the matter of picking up the team option for next season on center Timofey Mozgov's contract. That can be done at any time until June 29. The deadline date of many of those, however, are individually negotiated. In any case, the Nuggets are expected to pick up the team option on Mozgov's contract, which will pay him nearly $5 million next season, the final year of his current contract. He would then be a restricted free agent in the summer of 2016. Denver Post
Player contracts due to expire at the end of this season belong to guard Nate Robinson and forward Darrell Arthur. Both have expressed a desire to return to the team, but both will be unrestricted free agents next summer, free to sign with any team in the league. Meanwhile, Arron Afflalo has a player option for his final season. It will pay him $7.5 million for his last season, and he would be an unrestricted free agent at its end, in 2016. Or he could opt out of the final year and become an unrestricted free agent next summer. Denver Post
Walking off the floor after the Nuggets' 89-79 win in Denver on opening night Wednesday with 22 points and 17 rebounds to his name, Faried mouthed off about Smith's evening. "Josh Smith, we let him keep shooting," Faried said on the team's website after the game. "And he ended up with 25, but he still kept shooting. He shot them out of the game." Detroit News
Smith, who started off hitting six of his first 10 shots but made just three of his final 12, heard of Faried's comments Thursday afternoon from a friend, and fired back in kind before the Pistons played the Minnesota Timberwolves. "I don't respond to nobody with dreadlocks who plays basketball," Smith said, referring to Faried's hairdo. "He's a clown, quote me on that." Detroit News
"He knows it's coming, he knows, next time we play," Smith said. "In order to make those comments like that, you gotta be able to back it up and we'll see next time." "I'll have some words while I'm busting his (behind). I back it up when I talk. It's gonna be a pretty good matchup." Detroit News
"He fears me," Smith said. "He's scared of me, so, of course, he'll talk about me in the paper. He won't do it to me in my face. If you have to hide behind a microphone or smartphone, so be it. I don't mind." Detroit News
Vincent Ellis: Josh Smith on Faried: "He's a clown. Quote me on that." Twitter @Vincent_Ellis56
Vincent Ellis: Smith also called him a "Twitter gangster." Twitter @Vincent_Ellis56
With all the Kobe talk in the headlines, would you have a problem playing with him? Ty Lawson: nah i wouldn't have a problem with bean ..love to play with him,.. but i want bust his ass right now when we play the laker reddit
Living in Denver, how do you feel about the leagues drug policy? do you think it's fair or too strict? How do you feel about players using cannabis to help with the soreness/pain after games? Ty Lawson: living in denver i feel likes its fair... u can't have a team all high on the court it would be a terrible game lol.. I've never heard of weed helping soreness , it probably gets so smacked that u forgot about the pain but u feel it again when u come back to earth reddit
Ty Lawson: I HATE playing against russell westbrook and andrew bogut russell just plays so reckless and he's hard to stop andrew bout likes to throw some would say dirty shots but its to help his team win ..in some way i respect it tho reddit
Carmelo Anthony is way up there, but can't beat two legends from the run-and-gun teams of the 80's.

I read online that today is National Stress Awareness Day. We all can be stressed from time to time, but this outta make you smile.
For a stress-free, guilt-free dessert, bake a diet coke cake today. One can of diet coke with one box of chocolate cake mix, mix together and bake as directed, top with fat-free cool whip and fresh strawberries.
What's your favorite stress-buster? Mine is a super great RUN or a round of kick-boxing and sometimes a little yoga, all are excellent stress relievers.

Enjoyed a fun night at the Circus with my DD and DH, only bad thing....way overpriced ($12 for a cotton candy, so needless to say the DD passed on that) and way toooo many people, I have never seen so many people in all my life. Sheesh, but it was nice to get out as a family.
I knew I was going to be home alone all day on Friday so I decided to make sure I was not tempted to open the snack cabinet in my house. Hey, whatever it takes, right? Glad to report, it remained un-opened by me all weekend.
Fri: Enjoyed a great day off, got in a 5-mile run first thing and then worked outside in the yard for about 3 hours, just enjoying the sunshine and a super calorie burn of 1300, woo hoo. Day was fantastic, even included an afternoon siesta in the sun on my lawn chair.
Sat: Went to visit a friend in NC, spent most of day laying out on the deck by the pond catching up on the latest, Great time.
Sun: More sunshine, worked on the tan and watched a movie, followed by a great family dinner.
Overall I rate the weekend a total success: great eating and got in all my workouts for the week.
Started out the week with a bang . I woke up at 0429, one minute before my alarm was supposed to go off. I got up, no smacking the snooze and jumped into the running gear and headed out the door. Not such a great run, wasn't "feelin it" this morning, so I cut it a bit short. Feeling like I let myself down on that one, but hey....I GOT UP and went, so I will call that a huge SUCCESS. Going for a repeat tomorrow. And for all the doubters out there who said I would never get up this morning - HAHAHA, pay up...
Hope everyone's week is off to a great start.

P.S. I am still boycotting the scale, decided to give it up until May 1st. Tired of being defined by a number.
I came home from work last night to an empty house, DH and DD were going to be working really late, so that left me HOME ALONE.
Hmmm, what was I going to do, being home alone. First off I changed into my workout clothes because I knew I could do whatever workout I wanted for as long as I wanted, without interruption, woo hoo.
Put in the 10-Minute Tony Horton Workout - did two of those, Abs and Total Body, when I was done, I had only used up about half hour so I thought to myself again, hmmmmmm let's keep this party going.
I popped this in the Wii.
I immediately thought of my SP buddy SAMI199, always encouraging me to be moving and grooving, love ya SAMI, you got me inspired for some moving and shaking tonight. I know once she reads this blog today, she's gonna be moving and grooving, thanks to me for getting these crazy songs stuck in her head, lol and you're welcome.
Started out with a warm up....Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
Had to do my favorite one, Cotton Eye Joe, if you put in some extra hops and skips it really gets the ole heart pumping.
Feeling great so I had to crank up the volume and crank up the intensity (doing the running man )....
Keeping that heart rate up, oooh yeah baby, busting some moves, finishing it off with some...you guessed it, it's Hammer Time...Can't Touch This
Hope that was a great visual for you all, lol. I really enjoyed myself... loud music and sweating to the 80's. Woo hoo.
Now after all that I was running low on energy so I whipped up a pizza for dinner so DH would have something to eat when he came home. Went on with the nightly chores, etc. layed down in bed to watch a Titanic special on PBS, out by 8:30 - such a party animal I am. But that was short lived, DH and DD arrived home at 9:00 so I was up with them for a bit. Little did they know that the poor tired mom they were looking at now had earlier been busting some serious dance moves while they were gone, raising the roof. Heck yeah. Shhhh, don't tell them.
Today is "run" day - 4 mile easy run tonight, can't wait.

(Pics compliments of google)
We had some leftover grilled onions and peppers in the frig from Sunday's dinner so I thought what better to go with them than a steak. I put my running clothes on and told DH I'd be back in a flash to get dinner started. Got in a quick 4.5 miler, the entire time I was envisioning the yummy steaks the DH was cooking on the grill - hurry home I kept thinking, didn't want to keep those steaks waiting, lol. I made it home in record time, I keep a pretty fast pace considering I was running directly into a 20 mph wind, sheesh that was hard work. I got home to this....
3 oz of steak smothered with onions and peppers, a 1/4 of a baked potato and a super yummy salad with the works.
Hey....You know what rhymes with 7 0 2.
That's the number of calories I torched during my pre-dinner run, woo hoo for 702.
Tonights workout is a 30-Minute Tony DVD, no running today. I was so angry this morning with the scale it said I gained three pounds since yesterday, well pooh, I just can't believe the crazy fluctations in the numbers so I am staying off of it until next Monday. Darn that thing.

It Really Happened: Friday's long run really happened, I made it the entire 7.5 miles and my hip was just fine. Woo Hoo, hope this is an indication of things to come. Time wise it was a little slow but heck, I did it and that's all that counts. What a great feeling, which was short lived because of the next incident, read on....
It Really Happened: Had to take our weedeater to the repair shop after my long run, what a totally hair raising experience. I was on the interestate, doing 60 mph and a 6-foot ladder came flying out of the bed of the pick-up truck in front of me. I had only seconds to react, I couldn't slam on brakes because there was someone on my tail, I couldn't swerve into the right lane because there was another car there so my only choice was to straddle the latter, I manuevered the best I could but ended up with the ladder stuck under the right front of the car, I pulled over when it was safe, put on the flashers and was like totally speechless, Holy cow, that was absolutely terrifying. Now what to do about getting the ladder from underneath the car. My sis got out and we managed to cut the wheel sharp enough so she could pull the ladder out, sheesh it was scary. DH checked out the car when I got home, thank goodness it only scuffed the oil pan and nicked the rim on my tires - it could have been so much worse, and the dumb-dumb driving the pick-up just kept going despite my laying on the horn. What an idiot, he was a working guy too - so he knew better about tying down his equipment properly, he had other ladders tied to the truck, but this one was not and just flew right out. Hope he felt the pain of missing a ladder when he got to the job site, if only he knew he almost caused a bad wreck. Lesson learned: never, ever follow a pick up truck for any reason, ya never who what might come flying out of the back.
I was a nervious wreck after the ladder episode but we headed to the movies and I figured I could relax and unwind at the theater. My DD and I went to see Titanic in 3-D, not really that spectacular in 3-D but still a great movie.
It Really Happened: While we were in the movie my phone kept buzzing, I had it on vibrate in my purse but I didn't check it just left it in there. After the movie was over I checked my phone and there were text messages from about 10 people asking if I was OK? I was scratching my head wondering why everyone is asking, but I left the theater and got in the car. I was heading home and I heard on the radio there was an F-18 crash right up the street from us. Holy cow, that's why everyone was asking if I was OK, they wanted to make sure I wasn't in the path of that jet. Thank goodness we weren't and thank GOD no one was killed during that crash. It is being called the Good Friday Miracle around here and I believe it's just that, a MIRACLE. I drove by the wreckage site on Saturday, and it was total devastation of the apartments it hit, but no one was killed.
It Really Happened: Hubby and I actually went out on a Saturday night [that hardly ever happens], we went to visit some friends we hadn't seen in a while, we sat outside around a nice fire pit and chatted about what we've been up too, and before ya know it was 1:00 in the morning, WOW we had a great time.
It Really Happened: A lovely, relaxing day on Sunday. The Easter Bunny left this for me - three new lawn chairs.
Thanks honey bunny.
Great weather today, 5 mile run tonight when I get home.

Union Minister for Science and Technology S. Jaipal Reddy kept away from the prestigious function marking the launch of Metro rail works in the city on Sunday triggering speculation of his deepening differences with Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy.
Hyderabad Metro Rail Limited (HMRL), which has taken up the work in association with L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad Limited had organised the function here where over a dozen Union and State Ministers and elected representatives were invited. Though Mr. Jaipal Reddy was very much in the city, he decided to skip the programme.
Sources said Mr. Jaipal Reddy reportedly stayed away expressing displeasure at the manner in which the invitation was extended to him. They said an invitation was handed over at his Hyderabad office by some lower level staff in total disregard to his position. They recalled that it was Mr. Jaipal Reddy, who as the Union Minister for Urban Development, went out of his way to ensure that the project got viability gap funding to the tune of Rs.1,458 crore. When queried about the Union Minister's absence, the Chief Minister said he was not aware of it. "I landed this morning from Tirupati and rushed to attend the function," he said.
The invitations are usually sent by the Government officials, he said. "I will ask them to check what led to the confusion," he added. Sources in the Hyderabad Metro Rail maintained that a senior official had personally telephoned Mr. Jaipal Reddy after an invitation was extended to him. Congress leaders insist that by skipping the function, the Union Minister wanted to convey the message that his relations with the Chief Minister were not so cordial.

Senator Thad Cochran (R-Miss.) today asked the Secretary of Education to review and explain why the state of Mississippi, with its high poverty rate, receives less in federal funding for low-income students than other states.
Cochran serves on the Senate Labor, Health and Human Services and Education Appropriations Subcommittee that today convened a hearing to review the FY2012 budget request for the U.S. Department of Education. At the hearing, Cochran questioned the distribution of Title I funding, which is given to school districts with high percentages of low-income students.
"This committee and the Department of Education should be looking at the apparent inequities in Title I allocations. While Mississippi has more children in poverty than all states except the District of Columbia, it gets $1,318 per Title I-eligible student while other states with similar student populations get three times as much," Cochran said. "This disparity should be looked at."
According to a 2010 analysis of the Title I program by the Rural Schools and Community Trust, Mississippi has the highest concentration of children in poverty and received $1,318 per eligible student. In comparison, Wyoming received $3,149 per student.

We as viewers imagine ourselves in their dancing shoes, showing off our new moves, perhaps becoming temporary sensations through viral YouTube videos. Who among us hasn't dreamed of being crowned a dancing queen (or the Tony Manero of the new millennium?)

2001 Ford Econoline Wagon Van E-150 XLT 3dr Van (4.2L 6cyl 4A)
I purchased the 2001 Econoline with the Traveler package and the 5.4L engine when I was a Boy Scout leader with two kids in college.
I had blown the shocks on my previous minivan 3 times hauling boys and heavy scout gear.
We wanted something equipped similar to a mini van but not a full conversion van.
Found the van on a lot with the Traveler package.
As others have mentioned it was much cheaper than the larger SUVs and holds more cargo.
Nothing but brake pads and tires to replace for the first 10 years.
Mileage could be better but try and move the same amount of gear and people with sedans and you will buy a lot more gas since you will need more cars.

Excellent all around vehicle. Very capable for trailering a 3500 boat & trailer. Flexible interior with removable rear bench seat for cargo hauling.

Long term test is in,104K on 5.4L Traveler package and only been to the shop twice. Had some anti-lock brake wires chaff off and give error codes plus had an idle air control go bad. Other than normal maintenance, that's it. Good solid vehicle. My wife would rather drive it in traffic than the Camry.

This is the first full size van we have owned. After 3 mini-vans, it has been a wonderful experience owning something that is so large and comfortable to drive. We have driven from NC to Texas twice and have made several shorter state-to-state trips. With front and rear air, airplane lighting, and bucket seats all around, the travel is comfortable for all.

Our 2001 E-150 with Traveler package is the most versatile vehicle I have ever owned. It is the ultimate trip vehicle with the VCP with its cargo room and towing capability. We have almost 50K miles and haven't had any mechanical issues. When purchased the vehicle was about $7 K less than a comparable SUV and about $4 K less than a comparable minivan. Other than off roading it is much more functional than a SUV. Mileage isn't even that bad (up to 18 mpg), comparable to many smaller SUV models.

I have owned 4 club wagons since
1978. My 2001 E150 Traveler is the
best one yet. I feel the $ value of the
E150 Traveler is fantastic.
I don't know why Ford doesn't
promote this product more.

Save the Children reached over 3 million people across Kenya, Somalia and Ethiopia. The crisis may have slipped out of the headlines, but it is far from over. We are still there.
Save the Children works in some of the most dangerous areas of east Africa including Mogadishu and the Dadaab refugee camp. Our staff put their lives on the line daily. We cannot and will not stop our lifesaving work until we are no longer needed.
In Somalia we have fed over 150,000 young children and mothers, and providing clean water and food to thousands more. We cannot stop supporting these families, but we must also ensure our work is sustainable, and that we are not simply responding to one crsis after another. We must help children to gain an education, to help them fulfil their potential. This is essential in countries like Somalia, where the education system doesn't function in many areas. We are working with communities to ensure that livelihoods are sustainable by themselves, and not reliant on food aid.
In Kenya, we've reached over 250,000 people with vital, life-saving health work. We've also worked hard to strengthen the government's health system, by training local community health workers, and providing them with mobiles and solar panel chargers. We're working with children in the Dadaab refugee camp who have been deeply affected by the ongoing civil war in Somalia, to ensure our legacy in Kenya and across the region is more than simply an emergency response.
In Ethiopia, we've reached over 2 million people - distributing hundreds of tonnes of food and water, and at the same time delivering high quality education to over 60,000 children. We're working closely with the government to help communities prepare for future droughts - building community resilience, creating drought reserve grazing areas for livestock and working with women to create cereal banking co-operatives.
Thank you for your support of this project.
Despite an improvement in food security since the peak of the famine, children continue to die because they don't have enough to eat. Save the Children is calling on the international community to maintain focus on combatting hunger in the war-torn country.
"These figures clearly show how children bear brunt of hunger crises. 130,000 children under the age of five lost their lives in a crisis that was predicted months in advance. We must never let that happen again, and we must recommit to helping the 2.7 million Somalis who remain in crisis," said Carolyn Miles, president & CEO of Save the Children. "While conditions in Somalia have improved in recent months, the country still has one of the highest rates of child malnutrition and infant mortality in the world."
"With next week's London Conference on Somalia, this is a timely reminder to the international community of the urgent need to refocus on the humanitarian situation in Somalia."
Last year, Save the Children and Oxfam launched A Dangerous Delay, a report that showed how the international community's slow response to the famine cost tens of thousands of lives. Save the Children continues to work across Somalia, providing life-saving assistance to the most vulnerable and helping families to strengthen their resistance to future shocks.
Most mornings, before the heat of the day sets in and the dust isn't too bad, a stout Somali man with gentle eyes ambles through the alleys of this refugee camp. He ducks into tents and sits on the edges of beds and just listens.
He listens to girls like Leila, a stick-thin 15 year old who tells him what it's like to raise her four siblings since her mother disappeared and her grandmother died.
He listens to old men, like the one who is squatting in the dirt, washing his wife and children's clothes – a job no Somali man usually does. He listens to the man tell him his wife is sick and he's out of money and options.
Abdul Rashid Adan Ibrahim is a spectacular listener. He does more than listen, he absorbs. When he sits down next to them, they let go some of their pain and he takes it on. They know they can trust him. They know he's like them, stuck in the same God forsaken camp they are.
What they don't know is that this middle-aged man who spends all his time patching up the shattered lives of others, has one of his own.
Like everyone here, Abdul Rashid never dreamed he'd be a refugee. He grew up in Merca, Somalia, a white-washed city that leans out over the Somali coastline. In its heyday, Merca attracted tourists who curled their toes into the white-sand beaches and sipped Italian coffee at the city cafes.
Abdul Rashid's father owned a fruit farm outside of town. The irrigated farm with its advanced canal system produced bananas that his father exported to Italy. As a boy, he traveled to Rome with his father, where he dined in fine restaurants and tasted life in a cosmopolitan capital.
Abdul Rashid followed in his father's footsteps and studied agriculture at Afoole University in the 1970s, a time when Mogadishu was in its salad days. In the capital, spotless, palm-lined streets and public gardens bloomed with bougainvillea under which friends strolled. Women dressed modestly, but weren't veiled like today. Back then, you could drink a beer at the Jazeera Club and then catch a taxi over to Cinema Super to catch Clint Eastwood in The Good the Bad and the Ugly, dubbed in Italian.
The future looked bright for Abdul Rashid. He married a woman with a big smile and kind heart named Maimoua. They started their family as Abdul Rashid found work as a contractor for the World Food Program while consulting for international NGOs on the side. They had a nice house in Merca and, he says proudly, he owned a boat.
But in the 1980s, political cracks started to fracture Somalia's peaceful façade. Frustrated with a military government, armed opposition groups started to appear. In 1991, after President Siad Barre was overthrown, clan ties became politicized more than ever. That's when Somalia began its slow slide toward chaos.
Throughout the fighting and the rise and fall of governments, Abdul Rashid persisted. He was respected and a go-to negotiator in Merca. While working for humanitarian organizations, he knew how to joke and cajole and make the armed groups happy. A sack of millet here, a little cash there.
During the early 2000s, he started working for an American NGO, directing their food distributions to 28 villages near Merca. For eight years, he and his right hand man, Abdul, a calm, articulate man who had worked with him for years, received shipments of World Food Program food at the port in Merca. They transported the food to the warehouse and then distributed them to Somalis in need.
But a few years ago, things took a turn for the worse when an armed group refused to let them distribute the food themselves. Everything, they said, had to go through them.
Abdul Rashid was worried.
Not long after, someone showed him a video. It was Abdul; someone was holding his head up by the ears. He'd been beheaded.
Abdul Rashid was beside himself. He'd known Abdul for years and considered him a close friend. He knew his wife and 11 children. He also knew he was next. He left Merca immediately, walking out of town on the trails farmers used for livestock. He fell in with some nomads and walked with them for through the night more than 30 miles – not easy for Abdul Rashid who rarely missed a meal. As he walked under the stars, he wondered if he'd ever see his children again. He wondered if the thugs would go after his family, after Maimouna. He eventually got cell phone service and called a relative who sent a vehicle to pick him up and he headed for Badare, a town in Western Somalia.
Back in Merca, the thugs who killed Abdul hit the airwaves: Abdul Rashid is ours. If you see him, bring him to us. They rolled up to his house, guns at the ready. Where is he, they demanded. "He left yesterday, and he didn't come back to us," Maimouna said. They loosed off a few rounds above her head, then started rifling through the house, turning the place upside down. They looked under the bed. They looked in the latrine and in the cupboards. When he didn't turn up, they trashed the place. Then they went outside and waited for him to return, holding the house under siege. They set up roadblocks and searched vehicles to make sure he didn't sneak back.
Maimouna knew she had to get the kids out. Six of their children were at home at the time, including Saman, who Abdul Rashid had dug out of the rubble 12 years earlier after her parents house was attacked in a bout of fighting. Her parents dead, Abdul Rashid and Maimouna took her in and she's been their daughter ever since.
To smuggle the kids out, it was a family affair. Relatives mustered up their courage and approached the men ringing the house. Grandmothers took the girls out one by one, saying they needed to get their skin decorated with henna. Old men took boys to the mosque. One by one, Abdul Rashid's kids escaped. Eventually, Maimouna did too. They paid for a vehicle and drove to meet Abdul Rashid in Bardere, Somalia.
Abdul Rashid and the family made their way to Doolwo, Somalia, a place near the Ethiopian border where he thought they could wait things out. A few days later, a text message arrived. "Wherever you go, we will find you. Even if you go to Kenya, we'll find you."
Get your clothes, he told the kids, We're leaving.
That's how he ended up here, in Bolkomanyo, a 44,000 person refugee camp in Ethiopia. His wife was shocked. A wind as hot as a hair dryer never stopped blowing. The tarpaulin they lived under was a far cry from their comfortable house in Merca. Everything about the camp bothered her – the scorpions, the bland food, the kids coated in dust, the mosque made of sticks, the wrinkly vegetables, the idea of being a refugee. She was inconsolable.
She didn't utter a word, Abdul Rashid said, for three months.
For days, he and the kids took turns watching people come and go from the water pump, waiting to see someone they knew. Surely, someone from their former life, one of Abdul Rashid's many friends or colleagues, had ended up here. For a week days, they waited.
They didn't recognize a soul.
It all became too much for Abdul Rashid. Maybe out of embarrassment, maybe out of shock, he did the mostly unSomali thing: He became a recluse. He didn't talk much with others, he kept to himself. For a year, he drew his cocoon tighter around himself and didn't let anyone in.
Then something changed. He must, he decided, make the best of this. He can't sit and stew in his own worries. His children look up to him, he needs to be there for them, no matter the circumstances.
He started volunteering for Save the Children's child protection program in the camp. He quickly became the head of a child protection committee, one of 25 in the camp. He supervises 23 volunteers who document cases of child protection issues and work with families to educate them about the dangers of child marriage and the importance of education. It's everything from talking to parents about bathing their children to dealing with issues of domestic violence.
As one of the best English speaking refugees, as a college graduate, Abdul Rashid has a lot to offer. He put up a blackboard in his tent – by now a two room shanty that now has a garden in back where he has planted trees – and he reached out to idle teenagers in the camp. He's broken the teenagers into three classes by their abilities. He sends them home with worksheets to study. If they pass his quizzes, they will advance to the next level. Students know that English could help them get a job with one of the many NGOs in the camp.
Nobody pays Abdul Rashid to do this. He uses a little of his $45 monthly salary and his own time.
His children – especially Saman – speak excellent English and wonder aloud to Abdul Rashid what the future has in store for them. Where will they go to high school? College?
"They are thinking of it," he says, "but I can do nothing."
His voice catches.
"Just a moment," he says, collecting himself.
This isn't easy. The proud college graduate, the world traveler, the man who keeps a laminated copy of his resume in English on hand just in case, has tears in his eyes because he doesn't know how to educate his kids.
"Never in my life," he says, "did I think I'd become a refugee. I'm wasting my time here. I'm also wasting my children's time. Let them go somewhere else instead of wasting their time in this stony place."
Uganda. Tanzania. Rwanda. He and his family sit in their home and dream about these places. A place where Saman can go to high school. A place where Abdul Rashid can find a job. They've been here four years and never set foot outside the camp; they try not to think about how many more. Word in the camp has it that cell phone service is coming soon. Maybe then he'll be unable to talk to the outside world. Until then, he'll throw himself deeper into working for Save the Children. It feels good to have a purpose in the camps, he says, to have something you can devote yourself to. It takes his mind off things that are out of his control.
"It's nice," he says, "to have a connection with people."
Save the Children has the largest presence of any international NGO in Dollo Ado, in the southern Somali region of Ethiopia, both in the refugee camps and in the hosting community, with more than 400 staff and over 600 volunteers currently on the ground. Operating from its main sub-office in Dollo Ado town, Save the Children has over 20 years experience of working with the pastoralist and agro-pastoralist communities of Dollo Ado in food security, livelihoods, health, nutrition and water, sanitation and hygiene promotion (WASH) interventions.
Save the Children has been responding to the influx of refugees from Somalia since 2009. In response to the significant influx of refugees since July 2011, Save the Children scaled up the refugee emergency response in all the existing and new camps and currently has operations in all five refugee camps and the Transit Centre in Dollo Ado. Our work builds on partnerships with UN agencies, the Administration for Refugee and Returnee Affairs (ARRA), various Implementing Partner organizations, as well as the refugee and host communities in a variety of sectors including Child Protection, Emergency Primary Education, Early Childhood Care & Development (ECCD), Nutrition and School Feeding Programmes.
Save the Children is currently running a total of 23 centers across the five Refugee Camps and the Transit center (3 in Kobe, 3 in Melkadida, 4 in Haleweyn, 3 in Boramino (2 under construction), 10 in Bokolmayo and 1 in Transit centre). A total of over 54,047 direct beneficiaries and over 160,000 indirect beneficiaries from the refugee community access one or more of the services provided by Save the Children in all the 23 Centers across the five Refugee Camps and the Transit center.
There is a need across all of the camps to improve the education facilities and child friendly spaces. The majority of activities for young children are still housed in temporary structures – tents or frames covered with plastic sheeting. Tents of this kind are really only fit for purpose for a maximum of 6 months but some of the tents are still being used after a year. The harsh winds blowing sands and heavy rains during the rainy seasons in Dollo Ado have caused huge damage to these tents. Save the Children is trying to upgrade facilities to semi-permanent (solid foundations with temporary walls made from corrugated metal sheeting that are much safer and avoid winds and dust) or permanent structures (such as the new Child and Community Friendly Centers) wherever possible but urgently needs further funds to support these improvements.
One of the questions our supporters ask regularly is "What's it really like over there?" We captured a day in the life of Save the Children Child Protection Advisor, Amy Richmond, while we worked together in the Horn of Africa on the food crisis. Here is her story from a day in the refugee camps in Dollo Ado, Ethiopia.
I wake up every morning with the sun. We ration electricity, so we all make the most of daylight. Breakfast is usually a cup of instant black coffee and a granola bar. I won't have anything else until I return from the camps. We don't eat in front of the children. I work every day, so they blur together. On days we have internet, I check my email.
The team huddles at 7:30 a.m. and we set priorities and tasks. One of my goals is to help kids who have been lost, abandoned or orphaned.
First stop is reception where dozens, sometime hundreds, of children arrive each day. As soon as they're registered, they're rushed into a Save the Children feeding center – many of them eating their first meal in days.I work with our partners to make sure vulnerable children get into a protective environment and to reunite lost children with their families.
Next, I monitor the camps - making sure kids are in our school, Child Friendly Space or early child development program. I'm also on the lookout for hazards and basically "kid proof" areas for children to play.
One day while surveying the camps, I met a girl named Alima. She lost both her parents to violent conflict in Mogadishu. She told me of her loss and her frightening journey to the refugee camp – 6 days and nights hitchhiking and walking through the desert. We help children like Alima with various programs, as needed, including foster care, education and health programs.
Despite her hardship, all Alima wanted to talk about was finishing high school. Her hopes were music to my ears. When children talk about their future, it's a positive sign that – with the right support - they can overcome tragedy. I walked Alima to her host family, comforted to know they were caring friends of her parents. Then I went to a teen mothers' group where the girls get needed support and resources. We help them to start a business such as tailoring or dyeing fabrics. The girls are independent and want to avoid the traps of exploitative professions and relationships.
Around 4:00, we head back for debriefing at the Save the Children compound. It's a cluster of tents, dorms, offices, garages and warehouses of food to distribute to families in need. It's more like a shipping company with a few places to sleep. I have a 3" mattress, a blow-up camping pillow and a mosquito net.
One good thing about it being so hot is that we actually get warm showers. At night, we have a modest communal dinner - typically rice and lentils. Sometimes we have goat meat. Then it's computer time. Writing emails, reports, tracking status, recommendations, proposals.
It's late at night when I miss my family and friends at home. I just missed my niece Hannah's birthday. I look forward to returning home, having put in place strong programs that my Ethiopian and Somali colleagues will see through.

Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Files Class Action Suit Against Mellanox Technologies, Ltd
Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP ("Robbins Geller") ( http://www.rgrdlaw.com/cases/mellanox/) today announced that a class action has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased the common stock of Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. ("Mellanox" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:MLNX) between April 19, 2012 and January 2, 2013 (the "Class Period").
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than 60 days from today. If you wish to discuss this action or have any questions concerning this notice or your rights or interests, please contact plaintiff's counsel, Samuel H. Rudman or David A. Rosenfeld of Robbins Geller at 800/449-4900 or 619/231-1058, or via e-mail at email@example.com. If you are a member of this class, you can view a copy of the complaint as filed or join this class action online at http://www.rgrdlaw.com/cases/mellanox/. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member.
The complaint charges Mellanox and certain of its officers and directors with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Mellanox produces and supplies interconnect products for computing, storage, and communication applications in the computing, Web 2.0, storage, financial services, database, and Cloud markets. Mellanox's most lucrative product offering at the start of the Class Period was its InfiniBand product. InfiniBand technology is used to transfer and store data in high-end computing and data centers.
The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, defendants issued materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's financial performance and future prospects. According to the complaint, the true facts, which were known or recklessly disregarded by each of the defendants but concealed from the investing public during the Class Period, were as follows: (i) Mellanox was receiving a continuous stream of customer complaints concerning glitches in its InfiniBand product; (ii) Mellanox knew that the pace of a competitor's development of its own InfiniBand adaptor would diminish Mellanox's product offering and increase competition in the InfiniBand market in which Mellanox enjoyed a near monopoly; (iii) Mellanox knew that its outsized first and second quarter 2012 sales growth was not sustainable and was not the result of defendants' business acumen or growth in the InfiniBand market; (iv) Mellanox's inventory was dramatically increasing, both at the Company and in the hands of at least one significant customer, which would decrease sales and profit margins going forward; and (v) as a result, Mellanox knew its actual sales growth supported neither its own fourth quarter 2012 guidance nor the inflated share price targets the investment community was modeling based on defendants' bullish Class Period statements and guidance.

Our last day at Hope of Life
... a picture of it! It was wonderful to see, and also tightened my heart a bit as I realized there must be some kids in the group who would walk away empty-handed.
The team spent our time in the village bouncing beach balls with the kids, playing with the bubble machine, playing soccer, and taking lots of photos. The kids got a big kick out of all the photos I took, because I kept showing them their photo; they'd laugh and then call a friend or two over ...
Sunday service means more than church
... to sing to him, he turned his head so his ear was close to my mouth, and every so often, if I paused my singing, he would look up at me almost as if to see if I was still there, then he'd scrunch down and snuggle into me again. I spent some time talking with the nanny in Maria Leticia's room - she takes care of 7 kids. She was saying how much work the nannies have to do and they thank God volunteers like us come down to help. She also said ...
Fun in the sun!
... a day for our remaining days here, and two if we can:) Today's flavors were pineapple, lime, strawberry, and coffee. I'm hoping tomorrow we get to try the coconut one and/or chocolate one, she didn't have them today.
After getting our cucos, we piled into the bus and headed to the Zacapa local market. We parked by the central square, and saw the mayor's palace where they handle municipal affairs, and ...
Day of Work and Play on Campus
... time and help. We were blessed with some cloud coverage, though it was 82% humidity and the high was supposed to be 91. So it was very hot and we were working very hard, and those clouds really helped. While we were there we heard that another group was having a pizza party with the orphanage kids tonight, which got the WCA kids talking about the foods they miss from home.
Hugo told us we'd have an easy afternoon, so when we left ...
Sharing the love of Christ with young and old
... kick out of that. Most of the kids at Kelly's house are immobile, and can only move their hands and maybe their arms, though they have the most amazing smiles! I spent quite a bit of time bent over the crib of Maria Leticia, and she lit up when I started singing to her, massaging her head, and stroking her check. She just kept smiling away, and every once in a while I got an audible from her. There's a spot on her right cheek, right by her mouth, and ...

Braun Forehead Thermometer Review When my kids are sick, I want answers fast.The first thing I need to know is if they are running a fever. Oral thermometers can take time and when they are little it can be difficult. I used to use an ear thermometer but when my daughter had ear infections, it wasn't accurate. My old forehead thermometer would give me different readings every time so when I received the chance from @Influenster to review the Braun Forehead Thermometer, I was ready to put it … [Read more...]

Wolfson, whose term has expired.
The Upstate Medical University Council is an advisory board to SUNY Upstate President Gregory L. Eastwood, M.D.
Lee has served as superintendent of the Binghamton City School District since 1990. During his stewardship, the district has been recognized for exemplary student performance. Two schools in the district have been honored as National Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence.

Lee earned his doctorate from Syracuse University, a master's degree from SUNY Binghamton and a bachelor's degree from SUNY Oswego.

This will be the 27th meeting between the Denver Broncos and Cincinnati Bengals. The Broncos are 18-2 with a 3 game winning streak. The last time these two teams met was September 18, 2011 when Denver beat the Bengals 24-22. This will be the first time the Broncos have been back to Cincinnati since Denver junk punched the Bengals and their fans with the immaculate deflection. Looking completely Ortoned and in for a long season, an improbable pass was deflected straight into the waiting hands of Brandon Stokley. Stokely proceeded to score and the Broncos went on a 6-0 run to start the season. We won't talk about what happened after that string of wins..... its too painful.
The Broncos increased their league leading fouth quarter scoring differential (+76) with their win over the Saints. This is the best mark in NFL History through 7 games.
QB Peyton Manning
is the first player since Steve Young in 1998 to pass for more than 300 yards and 3 TDs in four consecutive games. He also owns the Bengals with a 7-0 career mark.
LB Wesley Woodyard
is one of only two NFL players who have tallied 50 tackles, 3 sacks, and 2 interceptions this season. The other player is the Cleveland Browns D'Qwell Jackson. I know, I can't believe it is a Browns player too.
K Matt Prater
is banging field goals like he is banging......... well lets just say he is 9-9 on field goals this season. He is the most accurate kicker in Broncos history with an 81.8 percent (99 of 121) field goal record.

Marvin Jones WR | Knee | Out
Brian Leonard RB | Ribs | Probable
Dontay Moch LB | Illness | Out
Coach John Fox:
On the improvement of Ryan Clady - "I think the area he's improved in is his run blocking. It was something that we had seen as something he could improve at and he has."
Ryan Clady:
On his contract situation - "I wouldn't say disappointed, but I definitely wanted to get it done before training camp started. And it didn't, but I just went out and played. THis is my fifth year in the league; I understand its a business. My job is to go out and play my best every down, every year."
Peyton Manning:
On his right thumb injury - "More of an irritant than anything else"
Peyton Manning:
On the Bengals pass rush - "I think the Bengals have the option, they could rush four and create pressure on the quarterback or they probably have every blitz in the book... Atkins is a physical guy up front, Domata Peko, all those guys, it's a big, physical group.
