TREVOR Leithner readies his gilt pig Lavender for the Eastern Oregon Livestock Show 4-H and FFA auction June 9. Lavender should weigh in at just over 200 pounds at auction time. MIKE SHEARER photo
Cove eighth-grader readies Lavender for EOLS auction
COVE — If raising a 4-H pig for sale at the Eastern Oregon Livestock Show looks easy, it isn't.
The day starts early for Trevor Leithner and Lavender.
Leithner is a Cove eighth-grader who maintains a 4.0 grade point average. Lavender is the robust and sweet-dispositioned gilt pig he's been babying for months for the Eastern Oregon Livestock Show 4-H and FFA auction June 9.
"From the end of March until the beginning of September," Leithner said, "I get up by 7 a.m., put on shorts and tennis shoes and run one of the lambs on 50-yard sprints."
Then Lavender, usually with another gilt named Sugar Snap who's being groomed for the state fair later, will get walked for exercise a half hour to 45 minutes every day.
On warm days, Leithner will wash her. "And every day she gets skin conditioner," Leithner said, "so she's not all scaly."
She requires lots of handling so she'll perform well in the ring on auction day, Leithner said. "Once in the ring, she needs to be right in front of the judges so she's in their line of sight."
He even spends time training her to get on the scales. The scales become all important because while the judges are looking the pigs over, so are the buyers who pay by the pound. Lavender should weigh in at just over 200 pounds.
Leithner is preparing Lavender and "two or three breeding ewes" to market at the EOLS auction this year, which will be his fifth year of showing and selling at the livestock show.
As with most participants in the auction, Leithner comes from an EOLS family.
His father, John Leithner, is co-chair of the auction, and Trevor's sister, Brittany, has shown and sold at the auction for several years.
Of his sister, Leithner said, "Brittany taught me everything I know. I had to listen to her about a lot of things." Brittany graduated from high school this year.
Asked what's the hardest part of raising and selling livestock, Leithner said, "Letting go of my market animals, that's the saddest part. Especially the lambs."
But the money he makes selling at the livestock show and other fairs and shows doesn't get spent frivolously.
"I put it in a bank account to pay for other animals and feed," he said.
That bank account may help him with his long-term goal of going to Redlands Community College in El Reno, Okla., and eventually on to Oklahoma State in Stillwater.
His father said, "He'll be able to put a couple of hundred in his pocket" from the sale of Lavender. "It benefits kids. I think it's the most important part of the show."
The auction will be at 8 a.m. June 9 at the livestock show grounds in Union.
Those interested in buying locally grown livestock need to get a pre-assigned buyer's number to participate.
Auction co-chairs John Leithner at 541-786-1750 or Billie Jo Boothman at 541-975-9519 can answer questions about buying at the auction, and there is a copy of the EOLS Junior Auction Buyer's Guide on the EOLS website: easternoregonlivestockshow.com.

Young Jeezy - All We Do (Smoke & Fuck) Lyrics
Appears on: Thug Motivation 103: Hustlerz Ambition
[Verse 1]
I got a b*tch named Banana, pussy bananas
That's why I gotta say it again, pussy bananas
My little cool ass b*tch, she from the Westside
She let me hit from the back, say that's her best side
Call it her bed side, I call it her wet side
And every time the b*tch cum, she holler, "Westside!"
One Thursday night, met her at Crucial's
You already knowing the rest, the head was crucial
Do this little thing with her tongue that get me so hype
You should see her lips when I'm done, them sh*ts be so white
Nothing ain't soft in my pants, that barrel so long
Each and every time that she call, that sh*t be so hard
She know what to do, and she know how to do it
How I get her done every time we do it
Ain't gotta ask, baby, getting right to it
Box of Swishers, box of Magnums, running right through it
All we do is smoke and f*ck, smoke and f*ck
All we do is smoke and f*ck, smoke and f*ck
All we do is smoke and f*ck, smoke and f*ck
All we do is smoke and f*ck, smoke and f*ck
[Verse 2]
Yeah, you know it's on after the club, no problemo
Got no problem getting it up, I'm all limo
Yeah, like a black-on-black super-stretch
Trying to break that back, we had super-sex
She say all d*ck is the same, I got a super one
Told her all pussy's the same, she got a super one
And when I'm on that trick, I'm going superman
And when I'm on that smoke, I'm going super-HAM
Make a quick stop and a run for blunts and po'boys
When you left your strap in the car? The answer's no, boy
In my wife-beater and boxers, left on my damn chain
Before I left, I put her to sleep - don't play no damn games
[Verse 3]
Yeah, you know our conversation is cool, she intellectual
Got turned out at the school, she bisexual
Show up with my game face on, ready to kill something
Man, that thing get so wet, you think you spilled something
She said she can be anything if we arrange it
She said, boy, you better get back, it's bout to rain here
She said, Young, since this your pussy, let's put your name here
Baby girl, since this your crib, let's hide some 'caine here
Think about the business side of it, we both can gain here
Yeah b*tch, I know this your sh*t, we both can hang here
I told her, listen here, that's my sh*t so let me hide that
She said, listen here, that's my d*ck so let me ride that

In the fall of 2000, Congress enacted the Data Quality Act, directing OMB to issue, by September 2001, government-wide guidelines to "provide policy and procedural guidance to federal agencies for ensuring and maximizing the quality, objectivity, utility, and integrity of information (including statistical information) disseminated by Federal agencies...."3 Accordingly, OMB issued proposed guidelines in June 2001, sought public comment, and issued revised guidelines in September 2001, seeking additional public comment. Final guidelines were issued in January 2002.4
The proposed OMB guidelines applied to information dissemination activities that vary in importance and scope, include all media (printed and electronic), and direct agencies to develop procedures that are consistent with their own missions, resources, and administrative practices. The proposed guidelines also:
stated that "agencies shall have a basic standard of quality (including objectivity, utility, and integrity) as a performance goal";
recognized a range of importance for government information, and asserted that more important information, such as "influential scientific, financial, or statistical information," should be held to a higher quality standard, with scientific or statistical results required to be "capable of being substantially reproduced";
required that agencies disseminating information regarding risks to human health, safety, and the environment either adopt or adapt the quality principles applied by Congress to risk information used and disseminated pursuant to the Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1996;
required agencies to establish administrative mechanisms that allow affected persons to seek correction of information disseminated by the agency, as well as to establish an appeals process;
were designed to provide agencies flexibility in incorporating existing policies and procedures into the new guidelines; and
were designed to assure maximal usefulness of the information to the intended users.
OMB received approximately 100 comments from academic institutions and societies (including the National Academy of Sciences), federal agencies, industry groups, individuals, and others on their proposed guidelines. While several agencies noted that they would be able to com-
Section 515(a) of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2001 (Public Law 106-554).

Spy Targa II Goggle
incredible goggles
I have had these goggles for four and a half years and I use them at least 25 times a season. These are by far the mst durable goggles I have EVER had. even though they have the plastic frame, they hold up remarkably well and refuses to scratch. The lenses are also extremely scratch resistant, I have face-planted quite a few times and there very minimal scratches on them. The strap is great, especially the sticky grip that keeps them on your helmet. only problem with the strap is that it gets stretched after a while. Overall an incredible goggle, have NEVER fogged up on me, defintely worth the price.

.- In his Sunday audience for the weekly Angelus prayer, Pope Benedict told more than 20,000 pilgrims gathered in St. Peter's Square, that the Trinity shows us that "God is not solitude, but perfect communion." Echoing his predecessor's teaching on the 'Theology of the Body', the Holy Father said that, "For this reason the human person, in the image of God, is realized in love, which is the sincere giving of oneself."
He said that, "Jesus has revealed to us the mystery of God. He, the Son, made us know the Father Who is in heaven, and gave us the Holy Spirit, the Love of the Father and Son. Christian theology synthesizes the truth about God with this expression: one substance in three persons."
Greeting pilgrims in Spanish, German, Italian and Polish, the Pope also greeted members of Italy's National Eucharistic Congress, which he will close next Sunday.

Michael Eury remembers the day he went with his mom to the corner drugstore. It was 1968. He was 10 years old, and the spin-rack full of comic books in the back couldn't have kept him away even if it had been made of kryptonite and he had been Superman.There, among all the other comic books, taunted The Creeper, the notorious yellow-skinned, red-caped villain who was still on the run from police.So when Eury visited UNC Charlotte's J. Murrey Atkins Library last week to check out its new "Heroes and Villains: Silver Age Comics" exhibit, imagine his surprise when the first comic he slid from the stack was his old nemesis from DC Comic Title No. 2.Eury lifted the cover to his face, glared into those shifty eyes, inhaled the scent of vintage pulp paper, turned the page and became that boy from 1968 again."Heroes and Villains: Silver Age Comics" is both an online and a material exhibit, available through the library's Special Collections department.Organized by Marcus Bess, the library's usability director and a huge comic book fan himself, the online exhibit offers hundreds of panels, cover art visuals, history and trivia on nearly every one of the 700 comic books donated to the university by alumnus Charles K. Johnston just before he left for the Vietnam War in 1968.While working on the massive exhibit, Bess, 27, tried to find Johnston but had no luck. He would have liked to thank him for the treasures he left behind.The Silver Age – comics published between the mid-1950s and early 1970s – represents a sort of rebirth of the superhero.The Golden Age – comics from the 1930s to the early 1950s –launched the superhero craze with wildly popular crime-fighters including Superman, Batman and Robin. But by the end of World War II, the public's interest had worn thin.The Silver Age breathed new life into the superhero by debuting new characters, such as Spider-Man, The Hulk, Ironman and The Avengers.But these new heroes had to fight more than just the villains in the panels. The Silver Age was also a time when comic books were beginning to take the blame for a rise in juvenile delinquency, a theory fueled by psychologist Fredric Wertham.In 1954 Wertham wrote "Seduction of the Innocent," a book that created frenzy among parents, who began to worry that the violence, sex and drug use depicted in the comics was going to lead to the downfall of society.The theory eventually led to a congressional inquiry and a subsequent decision to establish the Comics Code Authority, which publishers created in an attempt to self-censor the industry and avoid censorship by an outside group.But comics didn't always have such heavy matters weighing on them."One of the other cool things about comics from this era are the advertisements," said Eury. "Some of them are absolutely absurd."During his research, Bess found an ad for a mail-order monkey in one. In the ad, readers who sent away for the live monkey would also receive a free gift. "I think it was a clown costume," said Bess.The Silver Age eventually made way for the darker themes of the Bronze Age – 1970 to 1985 comics – and the even grimmer and grittier storylines of the Modern Age today.Much has changed. New characters have chased old ones away. Prices have chased some fans away.When Eury picked up his copy of The Creeper in 1958, it cost 12 cents. Today, when Bess picks up a comic book, it's closer to $4. But the lingering impression of Silver Age comics still remains behind. "I think they are the embodiment of what we as a culture really aspire to be," Bess said of the Silver Age. "Standing up for people, championing for good over evil – those are values that are really enduring."

Nutrition 2014: Grains, Wheat and Gluten
We are constantly told to eat more healthy whole grains. Yet, a wide range of health issues have been linked to consumption of grains, wheat and gluten. These issues include weight gain, food sensitivities, food allergies, gut health issues, autoimmune disease, inflammation, and the recent identification of the impact of these foods on neurological conditions due to the gut-brain connection. Some of these issues have been described in the recent best selling books, Wheat Belly, Grain Brain and Gluten Freedom. How might grains, wheat and gluten be affecting your health and what can you do about it. Taught by Jim Pirisino, a board certified and licensed nutritionist.Tuesday Tuesday 7:00-9:00pm

Heart Health: Real Food Solution
The main dietary factor leading to the development of heart disease is refined carbohydrate not fat.
The main developmental pathway leading to heart disease includes refined carbs (sugar, flour), hunger/cravings, addiction, weight gain, high insulin, insulin resistance, elevated risk factors caused by high insulin, obesity, diabetes, heart disease
The standard recommendations of low fat, low saturated fat and low cholesterol as practiced by those who promote processed foods and diet processed foods have all led to increased heart risk not reduced heart risk because:
1. low fat = high carb Low fat is the misinformation which has fueled an epidemic of obesity and diabetes – the conditions with the highest heart disease risk
2. high carb leads to high insulin, insulin resistance and the development of heart risk factors – high blood pressure and high cholesterol (specifically small dense LDL)
3. low saturated fat and low cholesterol recommendations led to the ironically ill-fated recommendations for processed foods and processed diet foods containing margarine or trans fat which causes heart disease
4. low saturated fat and low cholesterol also led to recommendations for "heart healthy" processed foods and processed diet foods high in refined polyunsaturated omega-6 vegetable oils which are pro inflammatory, damage blood vessels and increase risk for heart disease
The main concern for heart disease is inflammation not cholesterol.
Cholesterol is an important nutrient necessary for
• Synthesis of testosterone and estrogen
• Bile and digestion
• Vitamin D production
• Cellular structure and function, skin and cell wall
• Organs, bones, brain and heart health
Total cholesterol and LDL bad cholesterol have very little correlation with heart disease (50% of those who have a heart attack have high cholesterol and 50% have low cholesterol – no correlation)
Syndrome X or Metabolic Syndrome explains the heart risk factors associated with insulin resistance, obesity and diabetes and these risk factors include TG (triglycerides), HDL (good cholesterol), obesity, diabetes risk and blood pressure. Fat, total cholesterol and LDL bad cholesterol are not risk factors for Syndrome X or Metabolic Syndrome.
The most important cholesterol related risk factor is TG/HDL, which directly correlates to weight gain, insulin resistance, obesity, diabetes and heart disease.
To control all of these risk factors, your TG/HDL should be between 1-2
Statin Drugs
• There are over 300 reported side effects
• 60% of people prescribed statin drugs discontinue use due to side effects
• The main side effects are muscle deterioration – the heart is a muscle
• Statins prescribed to prevent heart attacks can cause damage to the heart
• The second most prevalent statin side effects – cognitive, memory, dementia
• One of the side effects of statins is diabetes (the highest risk factor for heart disease)
• Statins not only block the production of cholesterol, but also Coenzyme Q10
• If you take statins, it has been recommended that you supplement with CoQ10 (100mg ubiquinol, 2x/day)
New Guidelines on cholesterol and statins were released in November 2013 by the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology. These new guidelines no longer recommend that physicians treat patients with cardiovascular disease by trying to get their LDL bad cholesterol below 100mg/dl or below 70mg/dl because they found no evidence that this improves atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
What this means is that trying to get your LDL below 100 or below 70 does not work as a strategy to lower risk of heart disease. In fact the new guideline specifically says to treat if your LDL is greater than 190.
Here are the general guidelines from Nutrition and Wellness Services
• Avoid processed food
• Eat real food
• Avoid refined carbohydrate (sugar, flour)
• Avoid low fat, low cholesterol
• Eat good fat (real foods from healthy grassfed/pastured animals – butter, eggs etc)
• Avoid bad fats (trans fat, refined vegetable oil, fat from industrial feedlot animals)
• Control blood sugar and insulin 24hr/day
• Exercise (weights, resistance training)
• Track and keep TG/HDL between 1-2
• Supplement with Omega-3 (1000-1500mg EPA+ DHA)
• Supplement with Vitamin D (2000 – 4000IU)
Here are the recommendations from cardiologist William Davis, MD (Wheat Belly) who reports that he has virtually eliminated hearts attacks in his cardiac patient population. This strategy can not only prevent heart attacks but also reduce existing plaque:
• No sugar/grain
• TG <60, HDL >60, small LDL <10% total LDL (TG/HDL = 1)
• Not being significantly overweight
• Having a normal blood sugar
• Having a normal blood pressure
• Omega-3 supplementation (3000mg EPA/DHA)
• Achieving Vitamin D goals >50 (between 60-70)
• Having normal thyroid status (TSH <1.5) and
• T4 and T3 upper half of normal

Diabetes – Preventable, Controllable, and Curable
Empowering you with the knowledge to defeat diabetes at all stages
I don't have diabetes. Why should I take this class?
The time to take this class is:
• before you develop diabetes
• before you develop pre-diabetes
• before you develop all of the complications and health issues
Who should take this class?
Do you have pre-diabetes? Are you on the road to diabetes and heart disease?
• suffer from occasional or chronic hypoglycemia
• feel bad after a meal or snack
• experience hunger, cravings, addictions
• have a relative with diabetes
• have hormonal issues (PMS, PCOS…)
• have yeast infections

• children, teens and young adults are getting Type 2 Diabetes (once called adult-onset diabetes)
• 1/3 of all adults are already diabetic or pre-diabetic
• the longer you let it progress, the more damage
• the longer you let it progress, the more stringent/diligent you will need to be to control/prevent complications
• stop your progression to diabetes and heart disease - they are linked
• identify and eliminate the cause
• control blood sugar and insulin 24 hours per day
Consumer's Guide to Milk, Organic Milk and Raw Milk
The basic nutritional recommendation from Nutrition and Wellness Services is:
• Avoid Processed Food
• Eat Real Food
Industrial, supermarket, pasteurized, homogenized milk is a processed food.
This presents us with a fundamental problem – is America's staple dairy product a processed food and no longer the foundation of a healthy diet?
Pasteurized milk is the number one allergenic food in America and has been losing market share for the past 20 years.
In this class you will be given the Consumer's Guide to Milk Chart that categorizes milk choices today from supermarket milk to organic milk to raw milk.
Which version of milk are you comfortable consuming and providing to your family?
You decide. This is your decision. Make an informed decision.
Raw milk may not be right for you but you need to understand what it is and how it compares to supermarket milk and organic milk.
In fact, milk may not be appropriate for you at all. There are many other forms of milk based dairy that can be consumed instead – yogurt, kefir, butter, cream, whey, buttermilk, cottage cheese, cheese, cream cheese etc.
You cannot make an informed decision without understanding how milk has changed from the 1950's to today.
How has milk changed? We will go over all 25 ways that milk has changed.
Fluid milk is not the only issue here. Many processed foods contain milk and dairy components.
Is processed milk and processed dairy impacting your health?
An introduction to raw milk will be included:
• what is the law pertaining to raw milk
• where can you obtain raw milk
• what are the benefits of raw milk
• what are the risks of raw milk
How does your decision on dairy impact:
• gut health
• allergy, asthma, sinus, ear infections
• immunity
• digestive health
• autoimmunity
• food sensitivities
This is your one chance to learn about the issues surrounding of one of our basic foods.

Weight gain is the first sign that our metabolic, digestive, and hormonal systems are not functioning properly. To lose weight, we have to correct the underlying problems. In this class you will learn how to replace the foods that cause metabolic stress with foods that nourish, heal and regenerate the body leading to steady, long term and permanent weight loss. No more yo-yo dieting, no diet foods, no pills, no procedures.
Nutrition and Wellness Services Resource Guide
You have decided to give up processed foods and transition to a real food dietary regimen. But supermarkets are nutritional wastelands of processed foods. Where can you find real foods?
It is not easy, but there are many resources available if you know where to look. Use the Nutrition and Wellness Services Resource Guide to find the best and most nutritious foods. Resources are provided in the Maryland, DC, Virginia and Pennsylvania areas. Products, services, support, supplemental information and resources are listed for the pursuit of optimal health and wellness.
Nutrition and Wellness Services Food Guide Workbook
Learn how to evaluate foods. The surprising facts about the foods you eat every day will amaze and appall you at the same time. Foods, food labels and Ingredients lists are presented for each food category. Foods are segmented into four categories. Processed foods are categorized as either Bad or Better, while Real foods are categorized as either Good or Best. You will not see meaningful benefits until you transition your foods from Bad and Better to Good and Best. "Diet" foods are processed foods and will not help you achieve your goal of optimal wellness.

You're 18. Killing yourself is a really stupid decision at this point because you would otherwise have 3/4 of your life left to live, during which a lot can change. If you think you have nothing to lose, take some risks. Go hang out in a public place or a bar or something and try to pick up girls - it's probably not going to work the first few times, but hey - you'll never see them again probably, so nothing lost. Fuck, try out some pick-up lines, they might think it's funny. Also, being a foreigner with an accent makes you interesting. As a bonus,if you can't speak the language fluently, that could be an excuse for social awkwardness.
I would highly recommend going to college, though, and developing some interests. Study languages, maybe. Take a bunch of different classes first semester. Besides that, you'll be pretty independent and it's a chance to start over and make friends. Find people to study with, or talk to people in class, or hang out in a common room and get to know your floormates. As for studying - no one likes it. Find a subject that makes it tolerable and suck it up. Doing things you dislike is just part of life.
If you don't want to go to college now, you can take a gap year if you have something else you'd rather do, like work or travel. There's some pretty good scholarships and volunteer programs that can make traveling affordable.
If your school has counselors, ask them for advice. It's not like they're going to judge you. They might give you contacts and resources and point you in the right direction.
As for your skin problem, go to a dermatologist or at least look up some remedies on the Internet. Also, wash your face and your pillowcases regularly. Acne at your age isn't uncommon and shouldn't impact your social life much.
Also, you should post this on the Advice Board.

They're just mad that women keep picking jerks over nice guys like them, so they have to complain every time a woman tries to do anything, ever. If they admit that women are people, they lose their fedoras.

they aren't really interesting and/or don't know how to hold exciting conversations.
This sentence sums up like 75% of males I've talked And I'm a dude myself.
Also, I've met plenty of girls who have exciting/funny conversations as well.

nobody gives a shit as long as your not a dick about it. Nobody is going to get mad a t you for being straight or all that other shit, just don't go walking down the street screaming about a white - straight - male pride rally, because when you think about it, that is the same type of shit ppl on this site get mad at women and minorities for.
#166 - jaisharha (08/18/2013) [-]
I can see where you are coming from but I disagree with your use of the word pride, pride is something you take in an achievement, in this case you have had no input (Going out on a limb there and say you didn't personally put the white straight male on top) in which case what you hold is a great respect for those who achieved those things and a satisfaction that you belong to the same group through no effort of your own.
For my own part I am a gay male, and I go to pride month and all that faggy shit, but I still disagree with the use of the word, I have a great deal of respect for those who have done things to help my own small part of humanity forward but I take no credit for it. I do still feel a certain satisfaction that I can in some way claim those people as part of the same group as myself but its not pride.
Not saying that's a bad thing, just putting my thoughts out there.

I am proud that I was born into a race that has done so many great things.
It's my blood. If I was born of African, or Asian decent I wouldn't be the same person.
Race, is not some made up thing, it matters, and it has huge impact on all world events, period. Survival of the fittest.

Just be proud you're part of a species that has done great things. Survival of the fittest has no bearing on interracial politics because all races are identical in what helps humans survive. Honestly you aren't any more or less related to Einstein than you are to Gandhi, the differences are all illusions.
#148 - kangaroomeat (08/18/2013) [-]
History proves otherwise.
Humans become better through struggle, and most struggles have been divided on ethnic and cultural lines.
Claiming that racial differences are an illusion is just simply not true.
The myth of the myth of the race illusion.
People mindlessly parroting bullshit other people say to prove they are not like the anti-Christ Hitler.
#151 - creepyunclebob (08/18/2013) [-]
I'm on the internet. Completely concealed in the darkness. What I say can in no way be traced back to me and will have no impact whatsoever on my life outside this website. So when I say the ethnic divisions have no significance outside the context of their effects on history and have no basis in the actual differences between races, it's not because I want to prove I'm not racist. It's because that is my honest observation of the world.
#155 - kangaroomeat (08/18/2013) [-]

If there is one thing I learned is that you don't have to be afraid of the unknown. I'm not sayin' I conquered that fear completely though ..
Maybe dyin' isn't going as bad as we think. I mean, it's the most natural thing in the world.
We shouldn't waste our life on preparing fear our final moment. I mean, you got to accept the fact that you are gettin' older and maybe today/tomorrow or in x year you will die. The faster you accept and acknowledge this, the better.
Fear of getting older and fear of death is just what makes it so difficult being a human being ....................................

Hey man, I saw your post on the social board and the **** you're going through seems rough. Although I don't have a lot of advice (I am in a similar situation myself, but I am coming out of it) except for maybe trying to find someone with similar interests. That being said, what are your hobbies? I understand if you don't feel like talking, but at least the options there.

Private Practice Round Table: "Andromeda"by Christina Tran at . Comments
Welcome back to TV Fanatic's Private Practice Round Table!
Our Private Practice review broke down last week's "Andromeda," in detail. Now, TVF staff writers Christina Tran and Carissa Pavlica join newcomers Caitlyn Castro and Jarrod Mitchell for a Round Table Q&A.
Read their answers below and weigh in with yours!
1. What was your favorite quote or scene from this episode?
Jarrod: The elevator moment between Jaddison! Jake to Addison: "You know why I asked how you felt about me? Because I can fall in love with you, Addison. I could buy a house with you. I could make a baby with you in a test tube or however, but I can be with you. But when I go in, I go all in. And I can't do that while you're pining after another man. You're not ready for what I have to offer". Her simple response: "I can get ready". Trust me; these two are a reason to watch!
Caitlyn: Tossup between Cooper and Charlotte's reconciliation and Jake and Addison's elevator scene. I just appreciated how Cooper finally acknowledged how great Charlotte has been and reminded her that she's still what's most important to him. And it was great to see them get intimate again. I mean, when was the last time they did that? Then when you look at that Jaddison scene in the elevator - well damn, if you weren't for Team Jaddison before, then I don't know you can't be now. Jake was so great!
Carissa: Addison's reaction to Jake's proposal in the elevator. Swoon.
Christina: I'm with the rest of the gang. CharCoop and Jaddison were the best parts of this episode.
2. What do you think about Amelia's surprising pregnancy storyline?
Jarrod: It is quite the shocker at best! I really feel for Amelia. I mean, she's basically fresh out of rehab, her fiancée's dead, she feels as though the bond between her and her friends has diminished. I don't know how she can possibly deal with the baby. I foresee her giving Addison the baby, but then again, it's Ryan's baby! I really want to see how Shonda will spin this.
Caitlyn: I don't like it. The timing of it just seems so forced and it doesn't feel like it was very well thought of. I mean, congratulations to Caterina for her own pregnancy but I feel like this is another pregnancy that Shondaland should've hid. It doesn't seem like the right direction for the character and I feel like it'll mean too much for the rest of the characters. I totally think we should get to see Addison and Charlotte have a baby before Amelia.
Carissa: I didn't think it was surprising. It fits the soap format perfectly. Baby conceived by accident, under the worst of circumstances, in a drug induced haze and the father has since died. Perfect.
Christina: I definitely agree with Carissa that Amelia's storyline is written perfectly for a drama like Private Practice, but was kind of shocked it was all coming together so soon.
3. Cooper constantly needs Violet's help to see things clearly. Will he ever learn on his own?
Jarrod: To be honest, I don't see how someone as screwed up as Violet has the right to hand out information so freely. Everyone is smart enough to go to Sheldon. I wish Cooper would follow. Violet's constant analyzing of people's feelings is redundant. How does Cooper handle it!?
Caitlyn: I hope he does, but I doubt it. Cooper's just that way and to be honest, his and Violet's scene was actually quite refreshing. Their best friend relationship has taken a backseat over time, so it's nice to see it again every now and then.
Carissa: Does anyone? I wish he would listen to Charlotte instead of Violet. She's clearly the most sane of the bunch and yet he still goes to Violet. That's the disappointment.
Christina: It's doubtful. Like Caitlin said, they're best friends. It's just the way it is. It is certainly infuriating sometimes, though, when he can't figure things out on his own and just go straight to Charlotte instead of always seeking Violet's opinions or help.
4. Sam's got a lot on his plate right now with his sister, Corinne. How will he handle news of Jaddison?
Jarrod: This storyline was too forced to begin with, that I'm sure people don't even care. Jaddison's progression on the other hand has been done nicely. Besides, Addison is the show. I'm pretty sure people want her to be happy more than they do Sam and Corrine.
Caitlyn: I'm hoping he just looks the other way so that Addison could move forward with Jake without looking back. But who am I kidding? Sam will probably drop one-liners out to judge here and there or Corrine's situation will get worse, and it'll force Addison to keep being hung over him.
Carissa: The whole story is kind of funny. For as much as he pushed back at Addie and didn't want a child, he has a giant one with great emotional needs and no partner. Be careful what you wish for. He has no right to react to Jaddison at all.
Christina: Things are already beyond tense and difficult for Sam. With news of Jaddison, I think it will push him even further over the top and he'll have trouble dealing with it. No, it's not his business, but he's going to ultimately regret missing out on Addison.
5. Nearly every episode of this season has started and ended with Addie in her therapist's office. Are you enjoying these moments or are they a waste of time?
Jarrod: I'm actually enjoying them. It's really showing us viewers what Addison really wants. I just wish Shonda were smart enough to include them when the show first began. It's been enjoyable to get inside of Addison's head and see her perspective of life.
Caitlyn: I'm enjoying them. I like seeing Addison realizing things about her life and life in general. It's kind of refreshing and more personal as compared to the narration that's done on Grey's.
Carissa: I like them. I was skeptical at first, but Shonda seems to need these scenes to tell her stories.
Christina: They're okay. At times, I think they are the perfect way to introduce or end an installment. Then, there are times when I think that certain episodes could do without the therapy sessions. I will say that I do think that we've gotten to know Addison better than ever thanks to those personal moments.
Kirsten, George and Courtney :) and yes, I am atiyanayak on twitter.
I like Violet, I do, but she's been annoying lately. CharCoop foreverrrrr
What Kirsten said. I mean seriously Atiya, it's like you read my mind.
Atiya, you just wrote what I was thinking. I mean seriously, I absolutely agree :) You just spared me the time to type all of that, hehe.
I'm so happy about Jaddison, and I like how Shonda is taking it slow and not making them jump into bed straight away! He's the only guy where there are no complications :D They can actually end up together and be a 'MerDer' or 'CharCoop' . And talking about CharCoop, yayyyyyyyy :) As for Amelia's pregnancy,it's a great storyline. Also, what Jarrod meant is that people care about Sam and Corrine, but if they had to pick over theirs and addison's happiness, it'll obviously be her. With all respect carol, she's the main character for god's sake. :P
Addison is the best. I love Addison and Jake.
@jen - Rest assured. Private Practice will be back but not until March 15th.
Why no new episode today???
Charlotte is definitely my favorite character on Private Practice. I also agree that the entire cast actually makes the show, though. Even Violet... who I can't say that I've been too fond of lately.
I know that the born program for Addison, but for me, Charlotte is the best character and the main reason I see Private Practice. And I'm not the only one who thinks so.

No current Talk conversations about this book.
I saw the movie a couple of years ago and I thought it was ok, nothing that special. Not even a really good horror movie. So I never bothered to read the books. Well that was a mistake because the book is so much better than the movie…well that's a hardly surprising, movies are seldom better than the book. Carrie is not a horror book in its essence, yes it has elements of horror, but mostly the book is just a tragic tale of girl who finally snaps, who after years of abuse, both at home and in school just finally just not going to take it anymore and she has power.
So she unleash hell. Big Time!
Stephen Kingin ensimmäinen teos on helppolukuinen, eikä kauhean pelottava. Mielenkiitoinen näkökulma siihen, miten kiusaaminen vaikuttaa ihmiseen.
I gave it 4 stars mainly because of the writing, it's just brilliant! It's pretty amazing how many things are happening simultaneously in the story without being confusing at all. However, I must admit that there were some boring sections and that's why I didn't give it 5 stars.
I couldn't help but think that this was the Cinderella story as told by one really sick puppy. A great book, though. You can see Stephen King coming out of the chute a very strong writer and I don't think he ever really slowed down. -1996
one of my favorites. great characters and hard to put down

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0671039725, Mass Market Paperback)Why read Carrie? Stephen King himself has said that he finds his early work "raw," and Brian De Palma's movie was so successful that we feel as if we have read the novel even if we never have. The simple answer is that this is a very scary story, one that works as well, if not better, on the page as it does on the screen. Carrie White, bullied by cruel teenagers at school and her religious nut of a mother at home, gradually discovers that she has telekinetic powers, powers that will eventually be turned on her tormentors. King has a way of getting under the skin of his readers by creating an utterly believable world that throbs with menace before finally exploding. He builds the tension in this early work by piecing together extracts from newspaper reports, journals, and scientific papers, as well as more traditional first- and third-person narrative in order to reveal what lurks beneath the surface of Chamberlain, Maine.
News item from the Westover (ME) weekly Enterprise, August 19, 1966: "Rain of Stones Reported: It was reliably reported by several persons that a rain of stones fell from a clear blue sky on Carlin Street in the town of Chamberlain on August 17th."Although the supernatural pyrotechnics are handled with King's customary aplomb, it is the carefully drawn portrait of the little horrors of small towns, high schools, and adolescent sexuality that give this novel its power and assures its place in the King canon. --Simon Leake

A modern classic, Carrie introduced a distinctive new voice in American fiction -- Stephen King. The story of misunderstood high school girl Carrie White, her extraordinary telekinetic powers, and her violent rampage of revenge, remains one of the most barrier-breaking and shocking novels of all time. Make a date with terror and live the nightmare that is - Carrie.… (more)

Awards Assembly / Last Day of School
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 06-11-2003 - 8:06pm
Anyway ... I told Kevin this a.m. that I would be there, and he asked "did they call you?" So, I'm curious as to WHO was to call. He told me that they were only giving out 30 awards in total, and the kids didn't know WHO was getting any, but the school was going to call the parents to let them know (but ask them to keep it a secret) so they could be there if they wanted to. So, I felt horrible, but told Kevin that they didn't call, and I was sorry, but it looked like he wasn't getting an award. He really looked crushed. (Kevin, because of his problems, really needs some praise and recognition and kudos, and it really broke my heart. I 'know' how hard he worked for this.)
So, when I got to work, I called the school just to be sure there wasn't any misunderstanding, but they confirmed that NO there would be no award for perfect attendance and NO if we weren't called, our child wouldn't be getting an award. Needless to say, I didn't go to the ceremony.
Well, Kevin came home AND he had a certificate for his perfect attendance! Geesh. So, he got recognized (and I was really pleased because I was going to go and get him something special for that!) but I didn't get to see it. This is SOOOOOO typical of their school, but it really bothers me. As a working mom, I can't always make it to everything, but do my best to put the kids first. In this case, I feel like I blew it ... but I really wanted to be there.
Well, school is over ... and if I had an option for #2, I'd move her.

Sorry that your school isn't better about keeping the parents informed. At least he knows that you wanted to be there and you would have if they would have let you know what they were planning.
Have a great summer! I hope middle school will be great for Kevin (and all the rest of us moving on next year)!

Did he get the award at the ceremony or did they wait and pass them out in class maybe? If he did get it at the ceremony then it really stinks that they lied to you! They never invite parents to the award ceremony here. It's on the calendar but it's never one of those things that we get a letter saying we are welcome to. I went to both this year just in case the kids got something. There were maybe 20 parents there each day, which is sad!
