This week we are in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware for the Dunning family: Dale, her husband Ken and their son Brooks. There's not a family that I could think of that more exemplifies the spirit of Thanksgiving. Dale and Ken have been providing meals for thousands of people through the years, cooking food out of their own little kitchen, and going to a local church and serving the food there.
Dale and Ken have been together for over 35 years and they're still madly in love, which is a beautiful thing. To see the way that Ken supports Dale is just amazing. This soup kitchen is her mission. It's her calling, to feed people, to take care of people, to see a need and then to make sure that it's fulfilled. It's just amazing to see Ken support her in every way. He works three jobs, sometimes four, to put food on their table and pay their bills, as well as take care of all the people who need their help.
When you look at the way Ken and Dale have been operating, it's just fascinating. She gets up at 2 a.m. in the morning, starts preparing soup on one of her four burners, and once the soup is ready, Dale wakes up Ken. Ken gets the soup, loads it into their RV, drives it down to the church, unloads it and then it's ready to be served. The amount of time that they're spending just going back and forth and loading and unloading is crazy. What we want to do is put them in a place where they can do all of this at once and everyone can come to them. Hopefully they can actually take care of more people, and have a little bit better quality of life themselves.
What's really exciting is that this week we're not only building them a beautiful home, but we're going to completely reinvent what they call, Jusst Sooup. Their new soup kitchen is going to have a full commercial kitchen, a place where people can come and relax, hang out together, come in from the storm if you will, and receive a warm meal and share some time with friends.
Along with all of the exciting things going on with the build Paige and I were invited to come up to New York City, to play Who Wants To Be A Millionaire with Meredith Vieira. I've loved the show forever so I was so excited to come. The goal is to raise money for Jusst Sooup. We have the opportunity to win up to $1 million and it's pretty crazy even thinking about what that amount could really do for them. Think about how many tummies they could fill and how many smiles they could put on people's faces. That's as good as Thanksgiving can get.
Through the seasons we've built in all kinds of weather but this project we were up against something we've never had to face before. We're right in the midst of the build and find out that that we actually are going to have to evacuate because we were right in the midst of the hurricane. To be building something for somebody and to see the hours and love that's been put into it by the entire community and to think that that could be taken down, in a matter of minutes is really kind of heart wrenching. Everybody had that same sort of knot in their stomach, wondering if everything was going to be there when we get back. We have to pack up and move 30 miles inland just to keep safe. It was scary and everyone was thinking we really need to get this house done for the family. Thankfully it all worked out in the end and huge props to our amazing build team at Schell Brothers who really led the charge and made sure that we stayed on track despite the obstacles.
This week was really all about sharing, about giving and really being grateful. The one thing this show has taught me is to be grateful. I'm grateful that I have this job. I'm grateful for my family, my friends, and my health and for all of you out there who really support our efforts and make sure that we can continue doing what we're doing week after week. A happy Thanksgiving to all of you out there and I hope you're able to share it surrounded by your loved ones!

Deep garnet, bright; a decidedly savoury bouquet showing cedar, olive, hoi sin and bramble; medium-bodied and showing a little toasty oak on the palate, the fresh acidity and minerally complexity provides a long and harmonious conclusion.
(2/ 2012)
A balanced and delicious wine with soft and velvety tannins and a chocolate, dark fruit and coffee character. Full-bodied, lovely finish. Balanced.
(8/ 2012)
Blended of 62% Shiraz, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot and 7% Cabernet Franc, the 2009 Keyneton Euphonium has a deep garnet-purple color and is scented of warm plums, creme de cassis and blueberries over toast, salami, baking spices and tar. Medium to full bodied with rich, mouth-filling fruit, it has a great backbone of crisp acid, medium to firm finely grained tannins, and finishes long. Still taut in the mouth, it should drink best 2013 to 2020+.

Francesca's(R) Reports Fourth Quarter And Fiscal Year 2013 Financial Results
- Fourth quarter net sales increased 6% to $92.1 million
- Fourth quarter comparable sales decreased 6%
- Fourth quarter adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.27
HOUSTON, March 26, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Francesca's Holdings Corporation (Nasdaq:FRAN) today announced fourth quarter and full year 2013 financial results. These results cover the 13 and 52 week periods ended February 1, 2014 along with comparisons to the 14 and 53 week periods ended February 2, 2013.
Neill P. Davis, francesca's ® Chief Executive Officer and President stated, "Sales results for the fourth quarter were below our revised guidance driven by the impact of 370 full and partial daily boutique closings during January due to extreme weather conditions. Performance in regions less affected by extreme weather performed within our updated fourth quarter guidance. Looking at our full year performance, compared to the comparable 52-weeks in the prior year, sales increased 16% driven by new boutique openings and continued strong growth in our direct-to-consumer business. Our business model was evident in the challenging environment of 2013 as we delivered full year operating margins in excess of 20% while growing our market presence, supporting our growth with infrastructure investments, and managing through the transition in our merchandise offerings."
Commenting on the first quarter and full year 2014 outlook, Mr. Davis noted that, "The headwinds our business experienced as we progressed through January have continued into the first quarter, impacting our ability to clear through seasonal fall and winter products and resulting in the delay of spring season full-price selling. Although initial customer reaction to our spring apparel fashion is strong, clarity and timing of Spring 2014 customer buying trends remain uncertain. Our outlook for the quarter is based on current trends and an expectation of continued soft traffic through the balance of the first quarter. Underpinning our full year outlook of double-digit growth rates in sales and diluted earnings per share is our expectation of an improving trend in the second half of the fiscal year based on new boutique openings and related sales productivity, improving comparable sales results aided by easier second half comparisons, and leveraging of prior year infrastructure investments."

Covert Affairs Review: Not So "Good Advices"by Jeffrey Kirkpatrick at . Comments
"I don't suppose you've been issued a gun yet?"
Now the writers are just toying with us.
If you read last week's review, you are aware that Annie's lack of firepower is an area of concern here at TV Fanatic. At least twice last season, she found herself trapped in the sights of a shooter, requiring Jai to step in for the save. Old habits would seem to die hard, for here we are yet again, only this time it was Mossad Agent Eyal Lovine taking out Annie's would-be assassin.
By now, the CIA must realize that sending Annie on even the most routine missions will escalate into something more dangerous, so why not send her packing - or at least have a pistol waiting for her when she lands? Krav Maga can only get a girl so far, especially when she's in five-inch Louboutins and carrying a $6,000 handbag that could get trashed in the process.
It's distracting that Annie is constantly without any other means of protection. She might as well be the horror movie virgin who trips in the forest while running from a monster; she's about as vulnerable.
Supposedly, CIA operatives don't carry guns on American soil and the plan has been to depict the Agency in as realistic a sense as possible. Hey, if you want to show burn bags, that's fine - but no one went to see Salt because it was an accurate portrayal of the spy life. They went to see a pouty-lipped, hot chick blow stuff up.
Aside from one chase scene (which frustratingly didn't even involve our heroine) and a CGI-blown up truck, the action here was next to none. If this is the reality of the CIA, then someone better start passing out some Red Bull around the halls of Langley.
The minimal action might be easier to swallow if there was more intrigue or character depth in the telling of the story. Even a hint of continuity involving the Ben and Arthur setup from the premiere would have been nice. Instead, we were given another predictable mission for Annie to develop an asset who may have had some valuable intel for the CIA. Virtually no core character connections whatsoever.
Stretching the definition of character development a bit, there were tiny inklings of growth in both Annie and Auggie, such as Annie deciding to tell Danielle the truth about her French destination, even if the details were still obscured. Auggie's struggles with taking the reins in Joan's absence didn't exactly hit the target they were shooting for (pacing back and forth, waiting for Joan to call while Jai hovers like a charm-free vampire isn't exactly fascinating), but at least we saw a bit of vulnerability in his self-doubt.
The big problem here continues to be that the relationships on Covert Affairs are too hollow. Annie and Auggie are the most compatible characters and that partnership needs to deepen. Not necessarily romantically, but there should be something at stake; something that drives them from an emotional center and ties their experiences and those of everyone else around them together.
Sydney needed Vaughn. Michael needs Fiona. Even Shawn needs Gus. Annie needs to need Auggie.
Fehr's Eyal brought little of the punchy banter and sexual tension between he and Annie that existed during his first visit. The dialogue between them was awfully trite this time out, and what passed for tension was stunted silences and awkward looks. There was no believable chemistry between the two at all. Ice cubes generate more heat. Such a disappointment.
Joan's borderline-farcical side trip to the jury box was mostly ridiculous and neither added anything to the story nor to her character. This pursuit of civic duty should have been handled off-screen, allowing more time for Auggie's conflict with the weighty responsibilities thrust upon him.
Despite fine performances from this appealing cast, "Good Advices" was, simply put, a misfire. Let's hope Covert can avoid going too far down the apathetic and, quite frankly, dull direction it seems to be heading in before it is so far gone that no amount of guest stars or exotic locales can help it recover.

CA is an awesome show, im fascinated with the more realistic approach its taken to INTL issues (even though its still hollywood). Obviously there is a connection between Annie and Augie, but shes probably still burnt over the first guy Ben i think? And Augies still a player at this point in his life on the show. The slight sexual tension between these two is better then a relationship as they immensely care and look out for each other, but no one seems to want to say anything to pursue it further. The mossad agent and Annie go well together though and always provide entertainment when there paths are crossed.
I dont watch many tv series, but i do watch this :)
Most recent ep i watched as well had me picking the "decietful" character out of the interviews annie was conducting. clearly the under eye scratch was an obvious tell, so i shouldnt feel to smart for picking it before the analysis scene came up..
anyway, terrible review by editor and Piper is stunning in this show!!

It's a great show and I liked this one much as well.
However Annie is a good actress, though somehow I find her totally ambivalent to the specific scene she's playing!! The bad Syrian Boos was powerfully acting though it could have been more dramatic if the writers would have come up with direct interaction / s with Annie / Auggie for the intensity of the story. The main villein , Farzad Sadrian, could have been given some more clear interactions against our heroes …though he did a fantastic job, with his mouth Shut!!!
My first post on this show and I agree withthe reviewer,, not so good. Besides Alias, has anyone ever watched MI5, the BBC Spooks series. Over the 8 years they never cease to amaze me how the writers can come up with such viable plots. CA needs a little less Louboutins and more actual plots.
I wish that Auggie and Anne d more time together do you think they will ever start a romance?
I agree with the review. It's good to be realistic but Annie would have been killed several times by now. If not a gun then a tazer, throwing knives, or a bulletproof vest/flak jacket. She just stood there waiting to be killed for god's sake!
I, personally, don't see why blowing your cover would be worse than having your head blown off!---but then, that's just me.
I enjoyed this episode, i enjoyed last weeks two. I like how they try at least to portray the CIA accurately. I mean the show is called COVERT affairs, Covert meaning not going in guns blazing for all the world to see.
And did anyone really expect Ben to be around long? Hell no, its Annie and Auggie show all the way.
I like CA, last weeks was better than this
week that is a given. In general I feel that Eyal and Annie has a little something but I want her and Ben to be together. Lets get a little more action with that.
Sorry, but I have to agree with Joe Syria...I prefer more reality than gratuitous entertainment. I would rather see Annie work out of a situation than shoot her way out. I love this show and won't let anyone harsh my mellow!!! LOL
Shouldn't the goal of "Covert Affairs" be to raise the bar set by the brilliant "Alias"? Why does USA want to roll back the clock and undo everything that "Alias" accomplished? They tried to squeeze some mileage out of "from the producer of the Bourne Trilogy", but that was not-so-innocent misrepresentation and it isn't fooling anyone anymore. USA needs to up its game with CA, but I don't get the impression that they're making any effort at all.

Bottom line is you can't trust him when it comes to her. He puts her first over and over again. He should be jumping through hoops to regain the trust and if you give him a choice between her and you, he should know immediately who he chooses. He is trying not to choose and that is the relevant info here. If she is nothing to him, it shouldn't matter that he cannot speak to her.
So, no, I don't think you are overreacting. Your H has been having an emotional affair for years with this woman and the fact that he hid that he was talking to her again shows you that he is still hooked. Who wants to live with a man who has one foot out the door?
The closest DH and I came to getting a D was about a year after NC. xOW went to his office to test the waters and he did not kick her out. Previous to this, my biggest fear was that he would not be able to draw a line in the sand with her the next time she came around because the "danger" had passed and it was safe again. He didn't kick her out, but he said his lack of enthousiasm, that he continued to work, only listened with half and ear, and changed the subject whenever she got personal, sent a message that he was no longer interested and that he doubted she would come back. It wasn't good enough for me. I was upset for a week and he refused to talk about it. Finally, I calmly told him that I would have her out of my life one way or another even if it meant getting rid of him. I was through looking for her over my shoulder. I asked him why he didn't just tell her once and for all that he was not interested. He said he didn't want to hurt her. My jaw dropped. I said, "So, you have no problem with your wife being upset about her visit, not eating, not sleeping, not talking to you, and crying at the drop of a hat. You let me go through this without once trying to do something about it. Yet, you are worried about her poor little feelings after everything she has done to me and our marriage?" He went still. For the first time he realized how much he had put her ahead of me. It had been a year since he had seen her, yet he was still doing it. I think that whole conversation brought home how much he had screwed up and how close he still was to loosing me if things didn't change. Things did change pretty quickly after that because he put in all the effort he should have put in up to that point. After that, I was not going to tolerate that door being open even just a crack and me telling him in a calm and controlled manner got his attention where crying and screaming failed to before.
So, I don't blame you. Their relationship is a huge threat to your marriage and there is no reason you should put up with it. If your DH really did love you, he wouldn't ask it of you.

One of the most celebrated pieces of advice to writers is "Write what you know." Unfortunately, it shows.
The demographics of published writers in the West are largely homogeneous, and as a result, our literature is also largely homogeneous. Growing up, for example, my heroes were Atreju, Frodo, and Paul Atreides. All I ever really wanted to do was go on adventures like them. I readily identified with them, and their trials became my scripture: the loss of Artax, the recovery at Lothlórien, the knife fight with Feyd-Rautha.
Despite a liberal upbringing and an education at a women's college, it didn't occur to me that my identification with male heroes had damaged me in any way—that is, until I became a writer, and found myself weirdly reluctant to write a woman hero. This wasn't an accident.
As Vanessa Veselka wrote in The American Reader, there is a profound relative lack of female road narratives in the Western literary tradition. This absence hurt her in much more concrete ways. When recounting her years as a teenage hitchhiker, Veselka writes, "my survival depended on other people's ability to envision a possible future for me…[but] there was no cultural narrative for [us] beyond rape and death." Male hitchhikers had Jack Kerouac, Walt Whitman, and dozens of others. Veselka had bodies in dumpsters on the six o'clock news.
Meanwhile, in Joseph Campbell's The Hero With a Thousand Faces, a work that compares mythologies from cultures around the globe, the hero pretty much just has one face: that of a white (or white-washed) man. Women are usually guiding spirits or goddesses encountered along the way, not the heroes themselves. This has troubling implications when we view writing stories as an act of creation: not just of a narrative, but of the society in which we live, and the possibilities prescribed for the people who live in it. Literature is our collective creation myth.
The first female road narrative I remember reading at all was when I was 23, in Mating by Norman Rush. The protagonist sets out into the Kalahari with two donkeys to find a rumored utopian society. Reading it was a revelation. I felt like I was stretching limbs I never knew were paralyzed. So, like a daughter who reproaches her parents once she's old enough to have her own children, my inner relationships with my childhood heroes' creators became troubled. In my heart, I asked Ende and Tolkien and Herbert: Did it ever even occur to you to write a hero who didn't look like you? To use your privilege to humanize and valorize everyone, instead of just yourself?
As it turned out, I was definitively persuaded to write a woman hero by none other than my male gynecologist, on the eve of a research trip I was taking to Ethiopia. (He thought it would be cool to write an on-the-road menstruation scene, and, to hell with lofty principles, I agreed.)
On my trip, when I met fellow travelers who asked me about myself, I got used to the reaction: "Oh, like the woman in Eat Pray Love?" What was striking about that comparison was not how accurate it was. It was that, because of that book, I was now a recognizable figure in the cultural landscape: a single woman on the road with a non-tragic destiny.
My reluctance to write a woman hero, however, made me realize how overrepresentation of men in heroic roles had hurt me. And I realized that it also hurts men for the obverse reason: It reinforces their sense of privilege, which they then have to work that much harder to dismantle in themselves. It's that much more difficult to recognize women as human. Humanization—the recognition of the "other" as equally valuable as oneself—is foundational to giving and receiving love and compassion. Privilege impairs men's ability to do so.
This phenomenon, of course, plays out for any phenotype overrepresented in literature, including the ones I embody. As an American able-bodied, middle-class, mostly straight cis white person, I lack privilege in just one dimension: being a woman. But I can summon experiences of that non-privilege—the daily reminders that I'm a special subset of human, rather than human, full stop—to make me understand who, by omission, literature instructs me to dehumanize.

Sink or Swim Round 2: Northeast Division
Well, thus far, it looks as though New York and Los Angeles have the best planning websites of the first round. Toronto isn't too far behind and polling will remain open through November. Admittedly, the sample size is pretty small – but we move forward…
Our second group of cities ranges from the glorious to the notorious, perhaps with websites to match. Take a glance and let us know what you think of these planning sites from the Northeast.
Remember, the rating scale is as follows:
- born with gills (best)
- making waves
- treading water
- strictly kiddie pool
- floats like a brick (worst)
Do these sites give you a window into planning in their respective cities, or would things be clearer if they tried to explain in Esperanto?

Stretch those legs on this picturesque countryside walk along the historic sights of Hadrian's Wall.
Some of the finest scenery along the whole of the Hadrian's Wall Path National Trail is to be found near Housesteads Roman Fort. Head west and follow the Wall as it swoops up and down the undulating hills.
As you walk 3km you'll pass Crag Lough with its sheer cliffs dropping down to water below. A little further along is the iconic Sycamore Gap, made famous when it featured in Kevin Costner's Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
Stop for a picnic, enjoy the views and catch your breath. The effort is worthwhile for the stunning and dramatic landscapes and fascinating archaeology.

John Kerry slams Russia for 'enabling' Syria's Assad to stay in power
Published on Feb 17, 2014 12:44 PM
JAKARTA (AFP) - US Secretary of State John Kerry slammed Russia on Monday for "enabling" Syria's President Bashar al-Assad to stay in power in the war-torn country, after Geneva peace talks broke off without result at the weekend.
"The regime stonewalled, they did nothing except continue to drop barrel bombs on their own people and continue to destroy their own country. And I regret to say they're doing so with increased support from Iran, from Hezbollah and from Russia," Mr Kerry told reporters in the Indonesian capital Jakarta.
"Russia needs to be a part of the solution and not be distributing so much more weapons and so much more aid that they're in fact enabling Assad to double-down. Which is creating an enormous problem."
The so-called Geneva II process was initiated by the United States, which backs the Syrian opposition coalition, and Moscow, which supports the government in Damascus.

No current Talk conversations about this book.
A genuinely funny and odd novel, that may have been dampened/spoiled by O'Brien's note at the end, which gives away the ending and kills the suspense of the last 30 pages. DO NOT FLIP TO THE END OF THE BOOK! I like reading all the notes at the end of these fancy editions, but usually they don't contain spoilers.
A hilariously metaphysical comedy riffing on the nature of subjectivity and the everything-goes world of atomic relativity. O'Brien applies this weird version of Reality in a good satire of society---the police continually trying to 'control' the world, even when it is only themselves causing the chaos.
The end of the book did lag, but overall a very good read.
Another great work from Flann O'Brien. Delightfully weird, though it all comes together in the end. And, as usual, hilarious. (If you're a fan of _Lost_ you may already know that a character on the show was shown reading this book at one point, for a second or less. It's fun to read this book with that in mind as well. Almost certainly true that the readers/creators of that show had read this book before they even started. Lots of interesting resonances.)
Very strange!
I rarely say that once I pick up a certain book, I can't put it down because the phrase is often hyperbole, but in the case of The Third Policeman, I actually found myself trying to read as much as possible in order to continue through the story. O'Brien's dry wit matched with social criticism mixed to create a brilliant and absurd masterpiece. The protagonist isn't necessarily likeable, but that's okay because his soul, Joe, makes up for what his host lacks. I don't think I will ever look at bicycles the same way again and not since Ulysses has a book of mine been filled with so many marginal notes. O'Brien wasn't shying away from experimentation which is at its best in the footnotes. It's easy to disagree with O'Brien when he proclaimed the only good thing about this novel is its plot. He has done things within these pages which Western readers think of as commonplace today and he's done them masterfully and to his own degree of absurd perfection. I would love to teach this in a course on either Anglo-Irish Literature or Absurdist Literature. It's brilliant.
On audiobook. Wierd and wonderful

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 156478214X, Paperback)A comic trip through hell in Ireland, as told by a murderer, The Third Policeman is another inspired bit of confusing and comic lunacy from the warped imagination and lovably demented pen of Flann O'Brien, author of At Swim-Two-Birds. There's even a small chance you'll figure out what's going on if you read the publisher's note that appears on the last page.
(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:38:39 -0400)
Told by a narrator who has committed a botched robbery and brutal murder, the novel follows him and his adventures in a two-dimensional police station where, through the writings of the scientist/philosopher de Selby, he is introduced to "Atomic Theory" and its relation to bicycles, the existence of eternity (which turns out to be just down the road), and de Selby's view that the earth is not round but "sausage-shaped." With the help of his newly discovered soul, named "Joe," he grapples with the riddles and contradictions that three eccentric policemen present to him.--From publisher's description.… (more)

KINGSBRIDGE HEIGHTS (PIX11)—A Bronx babysitter is being questioned in the death of a 9-month-old boy who was killed Tuesday when he was punched in the stomach, police said.
According to authorities, the babysitter, described as a 17-year-old boy, was looking after the infant at the Marble Houses on W. 225th St. in the Kingsbridge Heights section when police received a call about an unconscious baby at around 10:20 a.m.
Upon arrival, EMS responders transported the unresponsive child, identified as Ryan Ferrer, to Montefiore Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
The teen is being questioned at the 50th Precinct Stationhouse, the New York Daily News reported.

Europe tries to rehabilitate Islamic extremists
BERLIN — Chris Boudreau's son Damian told her over dinner on a November evening in 2012 that he was going to Egypt to study Arabic, the language of Islam. She never saw him again.
"He flew to Seattle, then Amsterdam, then into Istanbul," said Boudreau. "There was a training camp just outside the city where radicals train prior to crossing the border into Syria."

Though we wouldn't have expected it from a potential Wii U launch title, ZombiU seems intent on showcasing its hardcore street cred. This latest trailer gives us a glimpse at some of the survival horror in the game including a "permadeath" type of feature.
We put permadeath in quotation marks because it's not really permadeath if you can regain all of your gear. The dev makes it clear that the character dies permanently, but your backpack/inventory (which is really the soul of any playable character) can be retrieved. We'd love to see a Dark Souls-esque system in which you have only one life to get back to your body, kill your zombified self and retrieve your items before your corpse wanders off forever.

10 Best Dow Dividend Stocks for 2011
8. Kraft Foods (KFT) makes snacks, cheese, candies and quick-meal products.
12-Month Sales Growth: 20%
12-Month Net Income Growth: 72%
Quarterly Operating Profit Margin: 14%
Cash Flow Multiple: 16 (12% peer premium)
Analysts' Median Target: $34.71
3-Year Dividend Growth: 4.4%
Dividend Yield: 3.8%
Payout Ratio: 73%
2011 Catalyst: Though expensive based on cash flow, Kraft is cheap relative to packaged-food peers based on its forward earnings multiple of 13, book value multiple of 1.6 and sales multiple of 1.2. Quarterly revenue rose 23%, boosted by the Cadbury buy.Developing-market revenue surged 70%, with double-digit percentage gains in the Latin America and Asia-Pacific regions. According to management, the Cadbury purchase is already creating cost savings and gave the formerly U.S.-focused company a tremendous foothold in emerging markets. It's using "power brands" to garner loyalty as middle classes form in Brazil, India, China and elsewhere and ramp up consumption. Bullish Scenario: JPMorgan forecasts that Kraft's stock will rise 30% to $40. Bearish Scenario: Deutsche Bank predicts that the shares will decline to $30.

Need any type of advice
- 0Ok so here's my situation.. I'm almost going to be 20 years old and well now I realize that I want to be a nurse and I don't have any clue where to start.. I previously have 1 year of college under my belt, but at the moment i'm not attending for financial reasons.. and I don't have a job at the moment either, however I have some hotel experience in working with people and helping them and ultimately I want to have a positive impact on others as well, but this experience probably won't qualify for anything related for a medical job at the moment. First off, I do realize that I need to get back to school and I am looking towards going back this winter while hopefully working somewhere as well in order to pursue this nursing career which I really want to do. Basically I'm starting from scratch and i'm located here in northern california. Any advice of where to begin while not being in college at the moment? I feel as if i'm almost "stuck" and unsure of what it is I need to do to secure me a job in the medical field.Last edit by Willing2learn on Sep 18, '05
- 0I'll definitely look into that =), thank you!
- 0Sep 18, '05 by NurCrystal22Hello,
Well, here are some things you could do...
1) Start CNA classes.
2) Volunteer or work in a hospital setting/nursing home. Maybe look in the classifieds/job sections to see if any opportunities are available.
3) Start Pre-reqs at a local college.
4) Apply for student loans (Stafford) because you don't have to pay them back until you are done, and this may help your "financial situation". Or apply for grants that you don't have to pay back at all.
5) Job shadow a nurse on his/her shift, in different areas of the hospital (med-surg, OB, ICU, NICU, Burn unit, Psych) this way you can see if you really like it or which area you might like the best.
6) Find out the requirements for the nursing program you are interested in and talk to the program chair.
Well, I guess one or a couple of those would be a start....
- 0Thanks for the step by step info there!! very helpful, alright well I definitely got on it and am making some progress, i'm trying to register to a nearby community college for late registration classes at the moment.. Hopefully I still will be able to get in and take some courses, because I don't want to delay any longer and there is still quite a bit to do in the enrollment process..im kinda crossing my fingers at this point..thanks again for all the information, you guys are great!

POWAY: City to list Poway Royal Estates for sale
Park residents again considering buying property
After years of fighting with the city for the right to buy their park, residents of Poway Royal Estates Mobile Home Park have their chance.
The city has notified Poway Royal Estates residents that it intends to sell the mobile home park it has owned since 1991, and the park's homeowners association met Wednesday to discuss the prospect of becoming landowners.
"I'd love it," said Pat Palmer, an 18-year resident of the park. "We've been after this many, many, many years."
Palmer said the Wednesday meeting attracted 40 or 50 people, and most of them seemed very enthusiastic about the idea of buying the park on Alpine Drive and Metate Lane.
The homeowners association will poll residents and proceed with the process if two-thirds of them support the idea, Palmer said.
If the recent past is any indication, the poll should show support for buying the park if the price is right.
Price, however, may be an issue. The city rejected the homeowners association's offer to buy the park in 2007, when it was assessed at $35 million, and the most recent assessment values the park at $45 million.
The city bought the 399-space park in 1991 for $21.6 million to help maintain affordable housing in Poway. Park residents had requested the buy as a way to stabilize their rents and improve maintenance.
The relationship between the city and park residents turned sour within three years. Residents in 1994 sued the city for raising rents and not making promised improvements, and in 1997 a court awarded them $390,000 in damages and ordered the city to pay them $1.3 million in legal fees.
Another lawsuit was filed in 2005 by residents to try to stop the city's plan to sell the park to Wakeland Housing Development, a nonprofit housing developer and operator, and to demand the city sell to them instead.
A judge ruled that the city was not obligated to sell the park to residents. Wakeland, however, did not pursue buying the park.
The city then abandoned the idea of selling the park and instead began plans to refinance the park's long-term bond debt, which would have obliged it to maintain ownership of the land for at least five years.
The homeowners association, still hoping to buy the park, again sued the city, but lost in court and on appeal.
Refinancing the bond still is an option and could save the city $400,000 to $500,000 annually, but City Attorney Lisa Foster said a market study showed that the time could be right for the city to again consider selling the park.
"Strangely, even though real estate isn't great right now, this particular property is considered a good investment right now," she said.
The sale would come with some strings, however. Still conscious of its initial intent to keep housing prices low and maintenance up at the park, the city is requiring the new owner to limit rent increases to 1.5 percent annually, with a cap of 5 percent, and complete $1.8 million in planned improvements to the club house, irrigation system and other facilities.

I thought of something neat last week while I was swimming. The workouts are designed with a warm-up, followed by several sets. There is a specific workout within each set. For instance, Set #1 this morning was 5 x 100 metres, repeat. So a total of 1000 metres for Set #1. There are often 4-5 sets and the total workout is usually between 2800 to 3100 metres. I only swim for 1 hour even though we can be in the pool for an hour and 15 minutes.
Now I am digressing a little...what struck me last week and again today is that the warm-up was 500 metres. Not really a big deal, except for when I think back to 1996/97 when I was training for my first triathlon. For my first triathlon ever I did the short course of the UBC Triathlon. The short course consists of a 400m swim. That's it. Just 400m and yet back then, it was all I could do to swim 400m! I vaguely remember going to the UBC pool and practicing for the triathlon. It was a struggle for me just to swim 400m and that is about all I did. I would go, swim 400m and that would be it. Fast forward to 2012, and it is standard for just the warm-up of my swim to be 400m or more. I feel quite proud of how far I have come over the years with swimming. I am by no means a fast swimmer and I strongly feel that swimming is an area where I won't make huge improvements. I just don't have the right technique and have been swimming the same (incorrect) was for so many years that it is hard to change. However, it is fantastic to see that my stamina has improved immensely over the years.

way to go, tricia! isn't it fun to reflect on our fitness journies! i was reminded this past weekend of when i started running and i used to say to my dad, "talk me up this hill!"ReplyDelete
and don't you also just love how when you're swimming or running and your mind has these "a-ha" moments. i think the repetitive nature of these sports allows for positive thinking time!
happy valentine's day!
