"Finding Your Purpose" Class Starts in Atlanta This Week!
Hey guys, so I'm back in Atlanta for the entire month of October and am teaching a wonderful five-week class on "FINDING YOUR PURPOSE THROUGH THE BLUEPRINT OF THE SOUL." Here's a little bit about it down below:
Discovering the true purpose of our Soul was one of the primary purposes of the Great Spiritual Mystery Schools and the Sages and philosophers of the past. Who are we as a Soul and why have we come to Earth? Where were we before we came into this life, and where do we go when we die? What is our TRUE PURPOSE here and how can we find a way to fulfill that purpose in this lifetime? This extraordinary series of classes focuses on the heart of the Mysteries, helping us to rise above the mundane view of life and discover the deeper meaning behind the many turnings of the Wheel of Fortune. As we begin to understand the nature and mechanisms of the Divine Plan, we begin to also get a clearer picture of the vast creative potential and magnificence of who we really are.
What is the nature of the Soul, and how are we connected with God, the Angels, and the Divine? Where were we before we came into this incarnation and what happens when we die? Are we mortal or immortal, and what is the Soul's purpose in even coming to Earth? How can we discover who we really are and what we are here to do? How old are we as a Soul and how does our age play into the vast human dramas we see all around us?
This first class begins a discussion about the NINE ORDERS OF THE ANGELS from which we all originally descended, and how the Soul emerges from remembrance to forgetfulness, and then back again, as we move forward in our true Quest for Mastery. It also addresses the many phases of the Soul's evolution from the BEGINNER SOUL to the MASTER SOUL, and how we can begin to discover our true SOUL'S ORIGINS.
Discovering our GENESIS MATRIX is the first step in understanding how the Soul becomes layered with its many gifts and talents. Knowing this, we can also see how these gifts and proclivities follow us throughout our many lifetimes, both in the physical plane and also in the Higher Realms. This second evening delves into our connection with the Four Elemental Kingdoms and the Devic Realms… Kingdoms that grant us gifts and abilities, depending on our alignment (or lack of alignment) with these realms. Understanding our connection with the Elemental Kingdoms also explains why some people are more attuned to the INNER GIFTS of Seeing, Hearing, Feeling, or Knowing – talents that emerge in our INNER SENSES as Clairvoyance, Clairsentience, Clairaudient, and Claircognitive awareness. In this second class we will begin processes to actively explore how to awaken to our GIFTS and to learn how to use these INNER SENSES in the discovery of our true Life's Purpose.
Now that we understand the DIVINE ORIGINS of the Soul and how we have been layered with certain Inner Sensitivities, we can begin to discover the KARMIC and DHARMIC ARC of our life. Knowing this ARC will lead us to the discovery of our TRUE PURPOSE. This ARC is composed of both our KARMA and our DHARMA. KARMA is defined here as the pain and suffering and challenges that we face as a child or a teenager. Our DHARMA is defined as our Life's Mission. DHARMA is a Sanskrit word meaning WORK, or in this case YOUR LIFE'S WORK. For some the focus is about creativity or empowerment. For others it is about service or healing. For some it is about bravery or protection, and for others it is about raising a family and learning the unifying power of love, loyalty and spiritual connection.
This highly interactive evening is about helping you plot your own KARMIC DHARMIC ARC, and then begin to reframe the events of your past to discover just why you have come to Earth with your unique life circumstances at this particular time.
Now that we have begun to discover the real reasons behind why we incarnated in our families of origin, and why we endured the challenges that we have face, we have begun to glimpse the purpose of our TRUE LIFE MISSION. Now we can begin to look at the many things that lodge in the SUBCONSCIOUS MIND that might block us from discovering or completing our missions. What are the SUBCONSCIOUS BLOCKS that we can have to our love, our power, our communication, and our purpose? And knowing what they are, how can we get rid of them so that they no longer interfere with our spiritual progress?
This fascinating evening delves into the nature of the many kinds of blocks and traumas that keep us out of our power, and out of connection from our true AUTHENTIC SELF. We take a look at VOWS, CURSES, BINDINGS, ERRONEOUS BELIEF SYSTEMS FORMED IN TIMES OF TRAUMA, and OLD SOUL CONTRACTS that no longer serve us. And we discuss the many ways that we can jettison these things so that they no longer block us from our health, wealth, joy and prosperity.
The last class in this series addresses the four major ways that people might try to take our power and pull us from our true LIFE'S MISSION. We also take a serious look at the well conditioned self-defense mechanisms that have been built into our culture… all of which are about trying to keep us wounded, unaware, and still ensnared in the traps of our wounding. This evening is about remembering the Soul's true curriculum… a course of Mastery that includes both the PATH OF LOVE and the PATH OF POWER. Both paths are needed to achieve complete Mastery… a path long represented by THE TREE OF LIFE and the WAY OF THE RETURN that leads us back to awakening, and to the joy of our own Divine Nature.
Join us for an amazing month of spiritual experiences that will forever change the way you look at the Universe around you and yourself!
Hey Everyone! I'm just back from speaking at the wonderful Mount Shasta Ascension Portal Conference that was held September 12, 13, and 14th up in Mount Shasta, California, about four hours north of the San Francisco Bay area. First off, it was a wonderful event with about 150 people there. The producer, Rob Potter managed to pull the event off with only four short months of preparation, so we take our hat off to him. And the speakers were also great and surprisingly spiritual and metaphysical.
My wonderful friend Robert Perala spoke about the nature of the Soul's journey as it reincarnates through time. James Gilliland, who owns abut 70 acres of property in Oregon where many extraterrestrial space ships come in virtually every night, showed video clips from some of their recent UFO sightings. Byron Belistos did a great presentation on the Urantia book. Readers who follow that book know that it is about 2000 pages of onion skin channeling or downloading, and even for scholars like me, it is an intimating read. So his highly logical, well organized slide presentation gave everyone a cliff notes version of that impenetrable text. I had not seen Michael El Legion on many years on the speaking circuit, but he and Rob Potter also did lovely presentations that were spiritually insightful and uplifting. And my presentation on the scientific, astronomical and hermetic meanings of the Age of Aquarius shift was met with an audience that definitely wanted more.
I will return to the San Francisco Bay area to do a two day presentation at the wonderful East West Bookstore in Mountain View, CA, in only two months. Those dates are November 15 & 16th for a Weekend Workshop Event on THE BLUEPRINT OF THE SOUL. Unfortunately the seating is limited to only 25 people, but for those interested in signing up, just call the bookstore at 650-988-9880. It's only $188 if you preregister early.
And I've set my plane tickets so that I can stay over for about four days and see clients out there. So for any of you interested in scheduling a reading or a clearing, just call me this month at home. I'm deep in the edits for my new book with Inner Traditions that is coming out March 1st, of 2015, but I will answer the phone or return your calls. Much love, and I'll be posting again soon! Tricia
The Mount Shasta Ascension Portal Conference
Welcome to the discovery of a fabulous three day event, September 12th, 13th and 14th in the holy grounds of Mount Shasta, located only five hours north of San Francisco, California. The price for all three days is only $200 until August the 3rd, then goes up to $250.
Join me and an esteemed list of colleagues as we journey into the mysteries of our Galactic Heritage and Cosmic Destiny and explore the cutting edge topic of Exopolitics and the reality of our space family throughout history. We will explore the full depth of ET interaction with humankind, both the light and the dark will be unraveled before your very eyes. Ongoing enlightened contact with benevolent space family will be shared and the spiritual message and information that can transform lives will be offered for those who yearn to know.
We will hear amazing tales of time travel and teleportation already developed by our space family but also used by our shadow governments as well. Amazing insights into the intuitive and spiritual nature of the divine feminine will shared and personal sessions by gifted healers will also be offered. We have secured an amazing venue known by few, The Ascended Master Room sits at the base of her Majesty Mother Shasta and you are invited welcome to come.
Conference Producer Rob Potter has lived at Mount Shasta for 20 years and knows her beauty and sacred sites well. So this conference will take place both inside the Conference Hall and also outside in the sacred energies of Mount Shasta's Panther Meadows where you will drink from a spring that is surely purified by the Telosians as it bubbles through the ground.

We will have a fire circle so bring your instruments we will have music and a laser crystal demonstration while we watch the sky for our space family Saturday Night!

Damanhur Comes to Visit Atlanta
Hey Everyone! The wonderful teacher from the community of Damanhur Italy, Shama Viola, just left Atlanta after teaching a great two day class here on THE ART OF DIVINATION. Like all of their classes, it was really wonderful, and also profound. Initially it introduced us to many different kinds of Divination techniques, a word that derives from THE DIVINE, since the ability to truly read the past, present or future is the result of our being able to link with the Divine forces of the Universe and see events in the flow of time. The class explained the difference between MANTIC and DIVINATION… a new discovery for me. MANTIC is connecting with things like the pendulum or the I-Ching. These are various systems for contacting the Higher Self through the autonomic nervous system. But in DIVINATION we are connecting into older systems of rituals that have been around for hundreds, or even thousands of years. THE TAROT is one of these systems. Its name comes from the world ROTAR or WHEEL, meaning the Wheel of Life and Death and Reincarnation that every soul travels.
On the second day of the workshop we primarily focused on understanding this WHEEL OF LIFE AND CHANGES that we all go through, beginning with the journey of the FOOL, the unconscious self that lives inside of all of us and who blithely steps out onto the path of life. On the positive side it marks NEW BEGINNINGS, and is the number O in the deck. But it also is very much like the INNER CHILD, connecting with the wonder of life, but having very little wisdom since it is unconscious.
The journey of the 22 MAJOR ARCANA takes us from the FOOL to the MAGICIAN, with many steps along the way. Some of these are THE HIGH PRIESTESS, THE EMPRESS AND EMPEROR, DEATH (OR CHANGE), THE SUN, MOON AND STAR, and we finally end up at THE WORLD, where everything we desire can be ours. With this completion of a cycle, we return to a new beginning, which some believe returns us to THE FOOL, the place where we have grown in many ways, but now have a chance to grow to an even greater level of personal maturity and awareness.
As always theirs is a great program, and I am planning now to bring them back the FIRST WEEK OF FEBRUARY 20015 to teach a class on PAST LIVES, where each participant who signs up by the first of January, gets a chance to discover and relive one of their many exciting past lives. If you are interested in knowing more, be sure to call or write me!!! Thanks, Tricia
Okay I Swear This is the Final Cover!!
Hey everyone! Okay, after a couple of months of title and artwork revisions, I think we actually have a great cover for this new book. Who knew how much time, effort, and thought goes into these things? I want to immediately thank the lovely folks at Inner Traditions for their time and patience, and particularly Erica, one of the managing project editors for being so patient, and also the lovely illustrator, Peri who had the vision and talent to create such a great cover!! I love the feminine Angelic Spirit at the top, and also how she added the Earth with its corona of light. So I hope all of you who see this think the same. The book will be out at the end of February or beginning of March, so it's still a way off, but it's really great to see it coming together.

A continuing slow down in overall philanthropic giving this year and next year is predicted in the AHP-sponsored study released in September, Economic Cycles and Charitable Giving, by John Volpe, Ph.D., collegiate professor at the University of Maryland University College. The study looks at projected overall philanthropic contributions, given forecasts of weak economic growth for the remainder of 2008 and through 2009, even if the economy avoids recession. Volpe concludes that a slowing of the growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and disposable personal income, as well as uncertainty over the recovery of the housing and stock markets, are likely to contribute to weakness in charitable giving through 2009.
The AHP's Report on Giving also found that funds raised in the U.S. to support health care institutions in 2007 were largely used to support construction and renovation of facilities, followed by the purchase of equipment. During the same period, however, 48 percent of Canadian funds raised went for equipment purchases, three times the amount going to construction and renovation.
"In these troubled economic times, raising the philanthropic dollars that hospitals and health care systems need to serve their communities takes skill, planning and patience," said McGinly. "Increasing numbers of health care systems, hospitals and foundations affiliated with AHP are beginning to benchmark their fundraising data. This enables them to better evaluate their strategies and convince donors, board members, hospital leaders, elected officials and the public that they are accountable for the gifts they receive and are using those limited funds in the most cost effective and transparent manner."
Remarking on the state of U.S. philanthropic giving for health care,
AHP Board Chair Lisa Hillman, FAHP, said, "Even in challenging econom

A Royal Betrayal: Catholic Monaco Liberalizes Abortion
which has already been brought, in other words, a sentence or judgment which does not need a future additional judgment from someone in authority; it refers to a type of excommunication which is automatic. Such a sentence of excommunication is incurred �by the very commission of the offense,� (CCC 2272) and does not require the future particular judgment of a case by competent authority.
Apostasy, heresy, and schism are all offences which incur a sentence of excommunication automatically. Heresy is the obstinate denial of any truth of the Catholic faith, on a matter of faith or morals, which has been definitively taught by the Magisterium. The Magisterium has repeatedly and definitively taught that abortion is always gravely immoral. (CCC 2270 to 2275)
While no public statement has been found as forthcoming from the Vatican�s Pontifical Academy of Life with respect to Monaco�s liberalization of its abortion law, Catholic�s loyal to the Magisterium abhorring the revision of Monegasque penal and civil codes to now allow abortions in certain hard case instances, may take some refuge in the address made by the Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI, on May 4, 2009 to the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences. The Vatican�s Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences was established by Pope John Paul II fifteen years ago, in 1994, for the explicit aim (according to its webpage: http://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/pontifical_academies/acdscien/own/documents/rc_pa_acdscien_doc_09111999_history_social_en.html) ��of promoting the study and progress of the social, economic, political and juridical sciences, and of thus offering the Church the elements which she can use in the study and development of her social doctrine� (art. 1).� Law is one of the domains of the Academy�s research with respect to Catholic Social Doctrine, it also, according to its Vatican website, �reflects on the application of that doctrine in contemporary society.� While Pope Benedict XVI does not specifically address the April 2009 vote by the National Council of Monaco to liberalize abortion in the Principality, he does take this timely opportunity� incidentally, making the speech the same day the UN�s Human Rights Council was conducting its May 4, 2009 Universal Periodic Review of Monaco-- to reaffirm the Church�s commitment to international and ecclesiastical human rights rules of law. The full text of the address may be found at:http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/speeches/2009/may/documents/hf_ben-xvi_spe_20090504_social-sciences_en.html, In this address, Pope Benedict XVI affirms the �enduring pertinence of Catholic social teaching in a rapidly changing world.� He states,
Human rights became the reference point of a shared universal ethos � at least at the level of aspiration � for most of humankind. These rights have been ratified by almost every State in the world. The Second Vatican Council, in the Declaration Dignitatis Humanae, as well as my predecessors Paul VI and John Paul II, forcefully referred to the right to life and the right to freedom of conscience and religion as being at the centre of those rights that spring from human nature itself.
Thus, in light of the Catholic Church�s ecclesiastical human rights rule of law on abortion, the obligation of Catholic state legislatures to promote �a culture of life� by voting against any measure related to abortion, the incurring of the latae sententiae excommunication by persons or legislators subsequent to having, or executing votes for abortion, the silent voices of the Holy See�s apostolic nuncios, including those accredited to the United Nations in New York and Geneva, in this grave and egregious matter of Monaco�s Parliamentary vote to liberalize abortion, solemnly betrays all global Catholic public diplomatic rhetoric by papal diplomatic representatives who hold the rank of apostolic nuncio, on pontifical ecclesiastical diplomacy as a beacon and champion of human rights diplomacy of conscience. Papal diplomatic representatives have the highest moral, legal and diplomatic fiduciary obligation to speak out when states, most especially official Catholic states, move to promulgate laws on abortion since these laws contravene Catholic ecclesiastical human rights rules of law, and thereby divine law. The absence of public papal diplomatic statements protesting the move of Monaco to liberalize its strict laws on abortion sabotages the Holy See�s efforts to promote a global human rights diplomacy of conscience.
One certainly must ask, where, in this state of official Catholic immoral political and legal affairs, is the Holy See�s official diplomatic voice of moral human rights ethics and social justice as a champion of pontifical ecclesiastical human rights diplomacy of conscience with respect to the centuries-old official Catholic Principality of Monaco? On the occasion of such an egregious civil legislative derogation from centuries old Catholic ecclesiastical human rights rules of law and moral doctrine affirming the sanctity of human life, the official diplomatic voice of the Holy See should not be found wanting�yet and has been found in a state of gross dereliction of pontifical ecclesiastical diplomatic duty. One of the first primordial moral laws of each and every Roman Catholic, ecclesiastic or lay, is the preservation and protection of the dignity of the human person�including that of the enfant still resident in the womb� even in the three referenced hard case scenarios. This immoral, unconstitutional and illegal state of official Roman Catholic Monegasque legislative and Vatican pontifical ecclesiastical diplomatic human rights affairs remains a travesty of Roman Catholic ecclesiastical human rights diplomacy of conscience of historic ecclesiastical, legal, diplomatic and political proportion, but Monaco is only following the overtures of the Council of Europe of which it has been a member since 2004, calling for the decriminalization of abortion throughout Europe. In April of 2008, the Council of Europe�s Committee on Equal Opportunities for Women and Men released a report titled, �Access to Safe and Legal Abortion in Europe,� located at: http://assembly.coe.int/Main.asp?link=/Documents/WorkingDocs/Doc08/EDOC11537.htm strongly advocating for Council of Europe member states to: -decriminalise abortion, if they have not already done so; - guarantee women's effective exercise of their right to abortion and lift restrictions which hinder, de jure or de facto, access to safe abortion; - adopt appropriate sexual and reproductive health strategies, including access of women and men to contraception at a reasonable cost and of a suitable nature for them as well as compulsory relationships and sex education for young people.
Notwithstanding the above, this highly controversial ecclesio-political moral state of affairs of liberalized abortion in Catholic Monaco, the Council of Europe�s 46th member state, yet one of the oldest original Catholic states to have a diplomatic legation accredited to the Holy See, appears to be a done deal without any hope of being overturned by the Catholic Prince of Monaco, since legislative powers in Monaco are shared by the Prince and the National Council, with the laws being initiated by the Prince himself. According to Article 66 of the Constitution of the Principality of Monaco, �The law requires the consent of the will of the Prince and the National Council. The legislative initiative belongs to the Prince. The deliberation and voting laws belong to the National Council. Enforcement of laws belongs to the Prince, who gives them strength by promulgation.� It would follow therefore, that if a law has been passed in Monaco, i.e., been approved by an official vote of the National Council, and published in the official bulletin of the state, it had to have been initiated and approved apriori by the Prince, and is then beyond any subsequent veto by the head of state, the Prince after official promulgation. Thus, the Principality of Monaco�s government-sanctioned moral turpitude continues to politically preempt the promotion of a Catholic faith-based human rights diplomacy of conscience in Monaco demanded in principle by its official Catholic state religion and its official status as a voting member of the United Nations. The Principality�s membership in the United Nations demands that it establish a national human rights institution and/or institutional human rights protection regime to enforce human rights rules of law within the Principality of Monaco in conformity with its Catholic ecclesiastical and moral laws, which are upheld foremost in Article 9 of the Constitution of the Principality of Monaco.

I believe the Catholic church should be passionate in NOT OPPOSING family planning, including artificial birth control, as doing so have resulted to countless abortions. They are indirectly responsible for millions of abortions as a result of the anti-contraceptive stand.

Thank you for keeping us informed about the Church in Monaco. As much as recent trends have pained me, I love Monaco and find its history fascinating but all to often the Catholic aspect is ignored. I am very appreciative of these important articles about Monaco's relation with the Catholic Church, be it bad news or good news I am glad it is being told.

Speaking of all things blue, let's talk for a moment about eyeshadow. Nothing screams Geritol quite like a pair of forget-me-not-hued lids. That powder-blue eyeshadow, long the favorite of Her Maj, Queen Elizabeth, will always take you straight to Frump City.
Ditto a structured hairdo. Attending a swanky fete? Take your cue from Madonna, I beg of you! Avoid those stiff, lacquered Palm Beach crash-helmet 'dos and go for midcentury movie-star shoulder-kissing tresses. Think Rita Hayworth. No matronly updos!
Daydreaming, I'm sorry to say, is even more aging than a beauty-parlor shampoo and set. Staring into the middle distance while doing nothing is so antithetical to our multitasking culture that anyone who does will automatically seem a million years old. Example: The other day, I arrived at a fashion show and took my seat. While other attendees pulled out their BlackBerrys and started texting, I just sat there like Whistler's mother staring at the plastic-covered catwalk. I was enjoying the time-honored pursuit of doing nothing. So startling was the difference between my behavior and that of the young fashion chippies next to me that a gal with a clipboard came up and asked me if I was having a stroke.
Following on from this point, being technologically incompetent as I proudly am is very aging. Not having a MySpace page is bad enough, but not even knowing what a MySpace page is will immediately relegate you to an old people's home where, incidentally, you will find me, staring into the middle distance, daydreaming the day away.
Whether you are eating blackberries or just fiddling with one at a fashion show, a plunging décolleté can really pack on the decades, especially if the revealed cleavage is the texture and hue of a Louis Vuitton bag. But nothing will take you straight to Margaret Thatcher Village or even Janet Reno Town quicker than a tie-neck blouse. Yes, I know they are totally de rigueur this season, but unless you are in the first flush of youth, you must avoid, avoid, avoid!
Like tie necks, sweater sets are great on gals under 20. Older women should avoid the aging effect by discarding the little shell underneath. And for extra youthful frisson, try wearing the cardigan back to front this is an old Diana Vreeland trick and leaving the top two buttons undone.

Little Lifesaver
POSTED: Friday, December 6, 2013 - 4:00pm
UPDATED: Friday, December 6, 2013 - 4:09pm
Illinois 4th-grader performs Heimlich Maneuver on choking friend. Nichole Berlie reports.
(KSDK) Not many of us can ever boast of saving a life, but 9-year-old Emily Ogle of Roxana, Illinois did so earlier this week.
"Well, I was just sitting there eating my lunch and then I looked over at Kuper and I saw that his face was red...," Emily said.
She noticed her classmate, Kuper Stevens, was choking on a bread stick during lunch Monday. He couldn't breathe and was turning red.
Despite the normal hustle and bustle and noise of an elementary school lunchroom, Emily knew exactly what to do. All because of what her father taught her.
"I did the Heimlich maneuver and I guess I got it out, but I didn't think so. So I ran and got the monitor, but I guess I already got it out," she said.

Dr Pepper Continues Commitment To Education By Giving Away More Than $1 Million In Tuition Money
Dr Pepper is giving away more than $1 million in tuition money this football season as part of the annual Dr Pepper Tuition Giveaway. Fans are invited to submit 60-second videos online at DrPepper.com explaining why they deserve tuition money for a chance to compete to win various prize levels, including one of five $100,000 grand prizes.
"Dr Pepper is committed to helping students achieve success both on and off the field," said Leslie Vesper, director of brand marketing for Dr Pepper. "Through the Dr Pepper Tuition Giveaway, we've helped to change the lives of students across the country – ensuring that their studies and future remain their number one priority, not how to pay their tuition – and we're proud to continue this tradition."
Dr Pepper will award $2,500 instant tuition prizes through the end of the year. In addition, a select group of Dr Pepper fans will have the chance to win one of the $100,000 tuition grand prizes being awarded at five signature college football events this year.
For the first time, two contestants will compete for $100,000 in tuition prior to the Cowboys Classic, Labor Day Weekend in Arlington, Texas. And once again, eight contestants will have their shot at a grand prize during halftime of the Dr Pepper ACC Championship, the Big Ten Championship, the Pac-12 Championship and the SEC Championship.Selected contest finalists will throw footballs from the five-yard line into a two-foot hole in an oversized Dr Pepper can replica. The Dr Pepper fan at each game who successfully completes the most throws in 30 seconds will win $100,000 in tuition, with the runner-up taking home a $23,000 tuition prize. Three additional contestants invited to each game who do not advance past a preliminary throw will receive $2,500. Dr Pepper is celebrating past winners of its Tuition Giveaway throughout the college football season. Their faces and stories will appear on limited-edition cans of Dr Pepper, Diet Dr Pepper, Dr Pepper Cherry and Diet Dr Pepper Cherry, as well as online at DrPepper.com, in retail displays and in a national television commercial.

Iraqi oil minister, Abdul Kareem Luaibi has said that the country's crude exports dropped in January to an average of 2.228 million barrels per day (bpd), but should rise next month, Reuters has reported. The drop from 2.341 million bpd in December was due to attacks on the pipeline carrying oil from the northern Kirkuk oilfields to Turkey, as well as disruption to shipping from Iraq's southern ports due to bad weather, Luaibi said. However, the completion of work on a new platform at Basra ports in February will increase export capacity to more than five million bpd, he said.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Holy hairpiece, Robert Pattinson!
A new clip from the Twilight stud's upcoming film, Little Ashes, has emerged, and from the looks of things RPattz is keeping the wig department pretty busy.
Combined with his frilly shirt, Rob's wild tresses make him look like quite the dandy. Check him out, portraying pre-moustache Salvador Dali in the clip below:

After the success of the first Pitsford family ride, we are keen to make this a regular event. Future rides may be at different locations, but this one will adopt the same popular format as the first - roughly 7 miles, following the gravel path around the reservoir at a leisurely pace. It is a gentle ride for all to enjoy, and is definitely NOT a competitive event. Of course those with a bit of left-over energy have the option of a second lap.

Here are the final standings in the Toller's Ladies League for 2014.
Close tussle all the way to the end of the series with Jenny holding on to the lead over Gemma.
Evelyn picked up the final podium position followed by Sue in 4th.
Thank you to Toller's for supporting this series.
Its great to see more ladies riding our events, where in the past we just had one or occasionally two riders each week.
The prizes will be awarded at the annual KCC lunch & prize presentation in November
2014 Toller's Ladies TT series League
The final event in this year's evening series was a short sprint from the memorial on the airfield straight to the usual finish on the outskirts of Old. 26 riders fancied having a go at the prologue-type event and many discovered that pacing is just as important as ever. Mark Weathersby continued his fine end to the season to take the win in 8:25, 8 seconds ahead of series runner-up David Robinson. Neill Hammond, Eddy Clutton and Jon Thorne all went under 9 minutes and finished in that order to complete the top five. Matt Tyrrell was 10 second ahead of a 3-way tie for 7th and Gemma Royles came home 10th to take the scalps of Mark Booth and Mark Evans, who had opted for road bikes. Stu Walters put in a rare appearance and showed a few of the juniors the way home with only Jonah Shrive and Morgan Lewis managing to sneak ahead of the, errr... more experienced rider.
Timekeepers: Bernard Smith, Adrian Tilley
Assistant: Ken Vatcher
The penultimate TT of the season and the last on the Old circuit saw Tony Brown take the win at the head of a large field and, in doing so, secure an unassailable lead in the points series. David Robinson, the only rider in with a chance of catching the recently crowned British Triathlon champion in the 55-59 age group, could only finish third behind second placed Mark Weathersby. Paul Ashdown continued his comeback with another solid performance to finish fourth, a second ahead of Eddy Clutton, who is seeing the benefits of some high mileage over recent months and a substantial investment in new kit. Mark Booth suffered a puncture on the way to the start but borrowed a wheel from the early starting David Robinson and recovered to finish sixth.
Gemma Royles slipped back to her usual time in the less favourable conditions but was still the fastest lady and was looking good for an overall win in the Tollers Solicitors League until Jen Moffat put in her customary late appearance. Her second place was enough to secure the overall win by 10 points having competed in 1 extra event.
Timekeepers: David Robinson, Christina Robinson, Jon Thorne
Assistant: Ken Vatcher
Marshals: Chris Duckworth, Andrew Jones
With the end of the season rapidly approaching, Mark Weathersby brought out his TT bike for its long awaited debut and recorded his first victory in an almost identical time to the week before. David Robinson took second place in his first event back after his charity ride through France, and Paul Ashdown dipped under 23 minutes to take third.
Timekeeper: Tony Brown
Assistants: Jamie Stockham, Ken Vatcher
Marshals: Gavin Wright, John Tilley
Favourable conditions resulted in a number of personal bests in the latest round of the TT series to be held on the Old circuit. Chris Duckworth, whose form is erratic to say the least, had a good day and dropped his PB by 18 seconds to take the win. Mark Weathersby produced his best time to finish second, and James Simons-Boswell took third with his fastest time on the course. Neill Hammond was the fourth rider to produce a PB in the top four but the run was spoiled by Tony Brown who came home fifth complaining bitterly about slow moving farm machinery! Gemma Royles climbed off the plateau she had been stuck on and dropped her PB by over half a minute. George Evans went faster by over a minute as he successfully kept his father and minute man behind him.
Timekeeper: David Robinson
Assistants: Ken Vatcher, Christina Robinson, Pete Dewsnap
Marshals: Darren Cope, David Bucknall

The original role for Physician Assistants was to provide healthcare in underserved rural and inner city areas. Today, the proven effectiveness of physician assistants has expanded the profession into every medical specialty, from pediatrics to psychology. Opportunities will continue to expand in this fast-growing profession.
The profession of Physician Assistant developed because of the need for medical care in underserved rural areas and the inner city. While that need still continues, there are now physician assistants "in every specialty," says Jennifer Dean Dwyer, public and professional relations chair for the Minnesota Academy of Physician Assistants. "Dermatology, neurology, orthopedics, cardiology - you name the specialty, there are physician assistants working in it."
This is good news for healthcare, Dwyer says. "From a medical access perspective, and for cost-effectiveness, I think it's fabulous that we're using physician assistants in every specialty," she says. "We can increase access to healthcare with less cost. It frees up the physician to do more complex things."
Primary Care Still Primary Focus
According to the 2007 survey conducted by the Minnesota Academy of Physician Assistants, 36 percent of physician assistants are working in family practice, with another 19 percent in primary care specialties like pediatrics and internal medicine. But the survey also shows 23 physician assistants in orthopedic surgery, 5 each in obstetrics and gynecology and general surgery, 6 in urology, 3 in cardiology and 4 in academic settings.
With more and more medical disciplines discovering the benefit of physician assistants, it's no wonder that the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) predicted a 27 percent growth in the field between 2006 and 2016.
To help bring more PA's into the field, the Minnesota Academy of Physician Assistants provides scholarships based on financial need and on academic merit. They also work with the Augsburg College Physicians Assistant program to host a "health day" field trip for high school students from low-income areas. The program offers speakers on health topics and healthcare careers, including physician assistants. There is also hands-on experience taking blood pressure, putting on splints and doing other typical tasks.
Prior Experience A Requirement
When Dwyer entered the field, the majority of physician assistants were coming from second careers. One of her classmates, she recalls, was in his fifties when he started the program. Today, people are entering the field at a younger age, Dwyer says, largely because young people are familiar with physician assistants through their school physicals or athletic programs.
Prior experience in healthcare is a requirement for becoming a physician assistant, Dwyer says. That means physician assistants often train in emergency medical technician (EMT), nursing or some other healthcare field prior to completing their physician assistant work. While the majority of physician assistant programs are now at the master's degree level, Dwyer says, there are still a few programs that award certificates to people who already have bachelor of science degrees in another medical discipline.
For more information, Dwyer recommends visiting the American Academy of Physician Assistants website, which has a lot of good information: www.aapa.org. She also recommends the Minnesota Academy of Physician Assistant site at www.mnacadpa.org.

Israeli air force combat aircraft struck at least two targets in Syria twice within a 48h period from 3 May, according to Syrian sources.
The first attack was performed in the early hours of 3 May, while a second followed early on 5 May. Loud explosions were heard during the air strikes, while video footage released by opposition forces shows secondary explosions following both attacks.
Syrian opposition sources indicate the targets were storage facilities for Iranian-produced Fateh-110 surface-to-surface missiles that are alleged to have been brought to Syria on their way to being delivered to Hezbollah militants in Lebanon.
Syrian state media reported that Israeli missiles had hit a military and scientific research centre in Jamraya, near Damascus, and caused casualties. The regime's deputy foreign minister Faisal al-Miqdad said the Israeli air strikes represented "a declaration of war".
Israel went on high alert status after performing the strikes, which are believed to have been completed without facing any anti-aircraft fire. Airspace in the north of Israel has been closed to enable detection of potential aerial threats and the air force has been placed at a top level of alert.
Other measures taken on 5 May include air force deployment of two Iron Dome rocket interceptor batteries in northern Israel.
In recent months, Israel has said any transfer of "game-changing" weapons from Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon will cross a "red line".
Israeli sources say the Iranians have developed an improved model of the medium-range Fatah-110 missile. Older examples of the weapon are already held by Hezbollah, and Israel believes the advanced version was on its way to the organisation's missile units.
Tehran has provided few details of the new model, but experts in Israel say Iranian industry is constantly trying to improve the type's guidance system.
The Fatah-110 is about 26.2ft (8m) long and weighs about 3t, including a 0.5t warhead. With a maximum range of 135nm (250km), the missile threatens Israeli territory all the way to the Beer-Sheba area in the Negev.
Israel has not commented on the reported air strikes.

State report: More tourists visiting New Mexico
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Tourism officials in New Mexico say more people are visiting the state.
A report from the state's Tourism Department found that New Mexico saw 2.6 percent more overnight and day visitors in 2012 than it did in 2011.
There were 32 million overnight and day visitors in 2012. The previous high was in 2008, with 31.4 million visits.
Tourists spent an estimated $5.9 billion in New Mexico last year, which generated $612 million in state and local tax Login to read more

| 5 Current Players That Will Fit Into The New Defensive Scheme
Posted by nighttrain30 on 2/12 at 4:57 pm1) B. Bunkley-Nose Guard- typical size for a 3-4 nose guard and has experience from his denver playing days and anyone with experience can help this transition.
2) A. Hicks- Strongside End- he has the size and athleticism to play the 5 tech in the 3-4. the hope is that he turns into the next Haloti Ngata. yes i know Ngata is one of kind but Hicks kinda reminds me of him.
3) C. Jordan- Weakside End- Cam played the 5 tech in college so the transition shouldn't be too strenuous for him.
4) M. Wilson- Weakside Outside Linebacker- His only professional highlights have come when he rushes the passer and he was moved to end last season. With his size and speed he could turn into a formidable pass rusher.
5)R. Harper- Strong Safety- Harper has been dreadful in coverage but in the Ryan system, the SS plays really close to the LOS to help in run support and is often used on blitzes. Basically this system plays to all his strengths.
i know, CSB.

I wouldn't say that, but Ryan did use an undersized Ratliff in Dallas.

i just looked it up and he is listed at 6'2 306. for some reason i thought he was closer to the 330 range.
you say he used an undersized tackle in dallas, was it successful at all? (i hate dallas and dont pay them much attention)
Reply Back to Top
Posted by Patrick O Rly on 2/12 at 5:32 pm to nighttrain30Yes. Ratliff was only like 287 but he was disruptive. That's another thing: running a 1 gap system requires your linemen to get penetration and not just occupy blockers, which suits Jordan and Hicks, but not necessarily Bunkly.

i think gallette could possibly be a very good rush LBer but i dont think he has ever played standing up and i think thats a harder transition than some realize. this is the main reason i picked Martez as a better fit because he has played LBer before so the transition won't be as difficult. i hope he proves me wrong and becomes a superstar.

I'm curious as how him and Tyrunn Walker will fit in. If Johnson isn't cut out for 3-4 end he might be worth something in a trade with a team needing a 3-tech.

Reply Back to Top
Posted by AlexMSU on 2/12 at 10:25 pm to monroesaintsfanI definitely think he is capable of DE in this new D.. From what I saw, he was able to get decent penetration and play the run very well in limited snaps at DT in the 4-3. He is a large body with an ideal build capable of solid penetration. I personally would like to see him stick around for a while and continue to develop and get worked into a young rotation

Royal Princess Horn
If you have not yet heard the horn on the new Royal Princess you are in for a treat. The horn sounds the first two lines of the Love Boat theme, "Love exciting and new - come aboard we're expecting you". Kind of like Disney's Wish upon a star only better. ;)
Love it, great idea
Sounds great, looking forward to hearing it. :cool:
I love it too, hope to one day hear it for myself :-) I think they should put those horns on all their ship, after all, they are the Love Boat..
Early on, in the 90's, when I signed onto my computer, the Love Boat theme played....this song always makes me smile.
You can hear the horn on You Tube. Google "royal princess horn". They also have the Regal Princess sailout.
Here is MY personal YouTube of it... (I was there, too, although I am just getting around to writing it up).

Hard Men of Letters
Mary Beard's insightful (and suitably uncomfortable) lecture on the suppression of the public voice of women is a good starting point for a more general discussion of oppressive language in the digital age. This is no small matter of etiquette. Abuse is not everyone's cup of tea. While some revel in it, many others are put off from bothering to contribute. This is not just an infringement of their rights but a loss for us all. It allows the oppressive a greater say than other, perhaps more rewarding, commentators.
First then, why might someone tend to lace their postings with aggression and personal abuse? Here's five possible reasons:
1. The writer is incapable of having his views questioned without becoming enraged.
2. The writer is prone to acts of violence, and given access would physically assault those who dare to disagree with him.
3. The writer is physically a wimp who vents his wimpish frustrations by talking tough from the safe end of an internet connection.
4. The writer has decided that a bullying tone is the standard vernacular for digital discourse.
5. The writer's arguments don't stand-up to intellectual scrutiny so he uses a threatening tone to scare-off those who might expose this shameful secret.
For once you'll notice we can dispense with gender neutrality. For all the media's fascination with savage females, Raoul Moats still outnumber Joanna Dennehys by hundreds, perhaps thousands to one. We can be confident that similar ratios apply when it comes to vicious and threatening writing.
Secondly you'll notice that as character portraits go, they're none too pretty: 1 needs counselling, 2 is a thug, 3 is a coward, 4 is a conformist poseur and 5 is Alf Garnett. As to motives, we can identify two key areas - the emotional and the strategic - with a certain amount of cross-over. Of the emotional, some suggest a simple lack of self-control, a lashing out, a tantrum. Others crave emotional victory, to make the writer feel better and the victim feel worse. Another emotional drive is the desire to paint a certain image of oneself to other readers, in this case one of toughness and ruthlessness. It's a narcissistic projection of a 'tough guy' image into the world, much like the John Wayne swagger or shaved head and Doc Martin's of yore.
Then we have the political and strategic motives - notably number 5. The hope here is that by roaring like a lion you will frighten-off those who find holes in your arguments or beliefs. We might call this usage 'rhetoric for meat-heads.' It functions like rhetoric, in as much as the objective is to change the subject. Of course true rhetoric takes skill - you need to maintain the pretence that you haven't changed the subject - but it's a toss-up which is more despicable. Personally I'd rather be called an 'effing something-or-other' than get caught-up in the lawyer-like twisting of an Oliver Kamm. At least when someone bad-mouths you, you can immediately call 'game over'. With rhetoric, irrelevant but plausible sounding distractions are dangled like worms into the pond, and it can be very difficult not to bite.
Of course you don't have to roar on your own. On like-minded websites and message-boards the regulars may be roused into collectively rounding-on a detractor. This works even when the detractor has made a valid point, and the consensus view is at fault. As in the playground, combined snarling can produce an illusion of winning the day, seeing the victim off, belly down. Truth is less relevant when you're backed by a mob.
Still that's all the obvious stuff. Obscene names and threats to disembowel are easy to condemn, and most professional journalists and commentators distance themselves outright. But there are more subtle ways to harness the power of abuse. While such writers might be more dexterous in avoiding the accusations, the aims are as unclean - probably some mix of those suggested above. They abound in an article about Mary Beard, which she mentioned in her lecture. It was written by Rod Liddle for The Spectator. I was going to call it a particularly mean-spirited article, but looking at his other entries it seems a mean spirit is at the heart of this column.
So, how to abuse with impunity? One way is to distance yourself from the abuse you wish to convey. Rather than throw the mud you can highlight the mud others have thrown. Liddle's article begins with two quotes, the second of which is an example of the online abuse Beard received after a TV appearance. It seems fair to assume that Liddle cherry-picked this quote because he likes it - he finds it funny. It has the same ring of 'crass intellectual' he projects in his own writing (for evidence of the 'intellectual' bit look at the first quote.) But by pointing rather than slinging he can have his cake and eat it. He can even play it that he was only quoting it so as to disapprove (tut-tut.) The damage is done either way.
Alternatively, you can put your own abuse into the mouths of others. Liddle suggests that Beard is frequently invited onto TV because "They think she looks like a loony. And the TV companies, the producers, love that." While we should never doubt the cynicism of TV producers neither should we doubt that this is Liddle's own sly way to call names. It is his word choice, no one else's. 'Her eccentric appearance' would have conveyed his meaning just as well, if it hadn't been his intention to abuse.
Alternatively, you can make sensible, critical, points but verse them in an unnecessarily harsh manner. Rather than suggest that someone is naïve you can ask 'Is she really that thick?' (Liddle, again.) And if all that fails there's always the 'satire' fall-back. You can paint your abuse as a joke: This is a light-hearted column. Have these people no sense of humour?
This all points to an interesting aspect of abuse, one that is easy to forget. In terms of information, abuse is a void. As the IT theorists put it, the content of abuse is redundancy rather than information - at least regarding the subject being discussed. Abuse doesn't take a discussion any further forward, it's a means of sidestepping it - rhetoric again.
For example, I might wish to propose that George Osborne's social background impedes his ability to empathise with other social classes. To express this I could refer to him an 'Eton-educated aristocrat who is clueless about the suffering of the poor.' Or I could call him a 'toffee-nosed Bullingdon-boy whose only experience of the working classes was the servants he beat at Eton.' Now, while the latter description might be more colourful and perhaps raise a smirk (though barely, as it's so hackneyed) it takes us nowhere regarding the original proposition. It might serve to garner dislike of Osborne and his class (perhaps one of my ulterior motives) but it adds nothing to the question of whether his social background blurs his view of other social classes.
This is further complicated by the fact that some words qualify as abuse in some contexts, and information in others. Calling Mussolini a fascist isn't abuse. Calling a Southern Water customer-service operator a fascist certainly is - however steep your bill. Calling a UKIP candidate a fascist is probably just abuse. If you harbour the suspicion that UKIP could be the seed of a growing fascist movement, then we could grant it some informational content. But in all likelihood it is just abuse. 'Myopic Little-Englander' is certainly an abusive description, but in this context it is far more information-rich. Given the welcome absence of Jack-Boots, at least this description gives you and the candidate something meaningful to chew-over on the doorstep.
More confusion arises with the mixing of abuse and information, even in the same sentence. Just for a bit of balance here's a concocted but typical sentence one might read on a left-wing message-board, or comment thread:
"It wasn't even Marx that said that, it was Hegel - you twat!"
While the part to the left of the dash might well constitute information, that to the right is pure abuse. Rather than substantiate the argument it functions more like a slap round the head, for emphasis. And the parallel is telling. Aggressive talk is often the prelude to aggressive acts. It all depends whether we are dealing with a number 2 (thug) or a number 3 (mouthy wimp.) And we can certainly smell some number 4 here - the conformist poseur. You have to ask, what is someone who knows the difference between Marx and Hegel doing using such a term, at least in public setting? Who or what are they pretending to be?
Comedy can't steer us round this distinction, either. As with any other form of abuse, the abusive content of satire is void of information relevant to subject - no matter how funny or satisfying it might seem. Politically, satire is a sop. It's the momentary satisfaction of flicking the V behind the headmaster's back. It changes nothing in the structure of the school. Steve Bell can continue to draw Tony Blair with grotesquely dissimilar-sized eyes, and Peter Hitchens can continue to refer to him as 'The Blair Creature' for another twenty years. It won't move him an inch closer to The Hague. Only the facts of Blair's time in office can do that, and we are stuck with a media determined not to inspect them. So enjoy that satire, but don't kid yourself that it changes anything.
The internet has certainly put a lot more ugly words on public display. Outside journalism, thuggish writing used to be confined to the toilet wall. Nowadays any semi-literate with a cell-phone has a global noticeboard for all their unpleasant recommendations. But let's not understate the role of the old media in all this. Liddle has the gall to bemoan our fall from grace - 'the internet has shown us as we really are, which is not terribly nice' - he whines. This is certainly evidenced by the comments section beneath his column, but can he really be surprised considering the content of his posts? Has it not occurred to him that a mean-spirited column will tend to whip-up a mean-spirited crowd? Is he really that naïve?
So while the increase in abusive writing facilitated by new media is regrettable, let's not pretend we're powerless. Abuse builds like a head of steam. We can choose not to add to the pressure. While we cannot coercively control the utterances of others, we can keep our own houses in order:

…or some such. This really can have a positive knock-on. Abusers look so much odder and more isolated when no one else will join in. They really are left barking in the dark. It's not always easy of course. This article took a lot of editing to remain consistent with its own message. When the temptation arises we need to think carefully about our motives. We shouldn't fool ourselves that this particular insult is necessary to establish a finer point. Abuse can never clarify an argument. It's always about something else.
